Intermission I – Part One: Terror Town

Maggots crawled through his empty eye sockets as he glanced at the preparations in the center of town. Ghosts, Ghouls and every other terror of the town were out and about for the annual Halloween celebration. And as the Pumpkin King it was his duty to design the grandest festival every year.

He sighed, raking one sharp bone finger across his skull. Shrugging of his thoughts he brushed his pinstripe suit down and exited into the courtyard. "Hello Sally," he called out.

The Ragdoll turned and smiled at him with stitched lips. "Hello Jack, are you nearly done?" She asked.

His skulled face cracked into a smile, sending flakes of bone to the ground. "Nearly," he replied. "But I'm still having trouble with a few last minute tweaks." A maggot fell from his mouth. "I'm heading over to Christmas Town to pick something up from Sandy Claws." He intoned through chipped teeth. "Then ill be able to finish."

She stared at him. "This isn't another attempt at Christmas is it?" she asked worriedly.

He chuckled. "No, no." He said, shaking his head. "Just a little…early present."


After entering the door he landed solidly in the snow. He brushed some snow from his long legs and stood to his full height of nine feet. He strode across the ground and down the snow covered hill towards Santa's workshop.

His knife-like fingers rapped against the door. A nameless elf answered and led him into the sitting room where Santa was making his list. He glanced up sharply at the interruption. "What-..Oh Jack…" he began nervously. "What are you doing here?"

The Pumpkin king blinked in confusion. "You were supposed to have that gift for me…so I could finish my project."

Large white bushy eyebrows knit together before relaxing in understanding. "Oh, Of Course." He motioned to an elf. "Jingle; Go get that package from the storeroom, the black one."

A few moments later a small black package was thrust into his hands, wrapped with spider webs instead of tape. Jack grinned. "Oh, It's perfect Sandy-" His reaction was cut off by the explosions coming from outside.


Flashback

The green man raked his spindly fingers against the orange mask of the stranger. The claws that could rend the flesh of any Who foolish enough the come near him left no trace that they struck.

The Orange man titled his head and slapped the green furred being away, sending him tumbling back into the snow.

The Grinch ground his teeth together and pulled a small bracelet from the pouch strapped to his hip. He slapped it on his wrist, letting the intricate symbols glow a dull blue before throwing his hands forward with a flourish. "Blizzard," he shouted.

Particles of ice condensed before him and launched themselves at the orange man. They struck his shoulder with a sickening crunch, sending him to his man however seemed unaffected.

His growl of frustration was audible. "What is it with you orange man?" he murmured. "You take a hit better than any who can."

The orange man hopped back up to his feet and stepped slowly over the smoldering ruins of a who's home. He glanced back at the Grinch and shrugged.

The air in front of him rippled and danced with darkness as a portal materialized. The orange man turned to regard the Grinch for a moment before turning around.

He was unprepared to be launched into the portal along with a struggling, biting, scratching Grinch.

Flashback End.
