Summary: Emily takes jack down to the land of the dead. I made this chapter long!
Jack hade his sockets tight as a worlwing of dust, death and if it hade a smell ,macabre finally begin to stop. "Here we are!" Jack opened his

eyes to see that they in an ally way. Jack looked behind him. There was a dead end. He looked back at the Bride, "It's a kind a of portal you take

right? To get here I mean." Emily smiled at him," Why yes, that's right, funny most people don't know how they got here, they just think there

dreaming." She smiled and started to walk down the ally, Jack rushed to catch up. He looked at her for a moment, she looked so calm with a little

smile on her face. Jack himself was quite the opposite and Emily noticed, "whats wrong, you look terribly. Is it something I did? "Jack shook his

head furiously, "Good heavens, no! You haven't done anything wrong! I just... I don't know this place it's all so new, and it is fantastic! But I

guess, it's just the place that...well, makes you feel funny, but I am sorry, I usually look much more presentable..."Jack looked down at the ground

as they continued to walk down the streets "I just went through something rather emotional. "He could start to hear the screaming in his head

again. He held his head low and his face went saddened. Emily looked sad as well, she didn't know what she could say to help and before she

could stop herself she asked "what happened?" She put her hand over her mouth the second after,"Ohgod! I am so sorry "Jack put his hand up

"It's quite alright, some one close to me died. "Jack lifted his head "wait a minute" he whispered. "Jack were here!" "What?"Jack looked up to

see a sign that read Ball and socket bar. They stepped in. It was completely empty, not a soul to be seen, literally. Emily smiled "Let me get

everyone, you just have to meet my friends!" She walked a few steps forward

"NEW ARRIVAL!"

Suddenly the whole room burst into life!(well, death in this case)Corpses and skeletons rushed in through every door. The room filled with voices

as a crowd formed around Jack "who is this? "Were is his skin? "Can you rot that fast? "How long have you been Dead?". Well at that point Jack

was rather overwhelmed but Emily stepped in to help, "PLEASE! Please! Let him have some air! His name is Jack Skellington from halloen, no

that's not right, hellen, no, Jack why don't you tell them?" When the other corpses and skeletons had moved enough for Jack to move around

Jack began to speak," Thank you, Yes, I am Jack Skellington from Halloween town, and I have been dead for quite some time now, in fact, I've

lost trace of how long." Emily started to speck again, "now he is just visiting, so no need to get the whole welcoming committee out! If it's alright

with everyone I think we should just like to have a drink. "They sat down at the two seat table in the corner so they could have some privacy. "

Well who should go first, me or you?" Jack sat thinking, listening to the two sides of himself fighting about what he was doing.

You're a monster, you know that don't you?

What! NO ! I'm not a monster what have I done?

What have you DONE? No... it's what your DOING jack

What!

You go for a stroll and pick up some crazy woman you don't know right after the "love of your life" passed away, how can you say you ever loved her? You are terrible

NO! that's not it at all! WE WERE JUST TAKLING!

Then how did you get down here?

She forced me!

Don't lie

And I did all I could for sally, how DARE you say I didn't love her!

"didn't" ? so you don't love her now?

NO! THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEAN!

Well what DO you mean jack?

I mean I love her and I would never do anything to hurt her!

Except let her burn to death in a fire.

SILENCE!

Why? Does the truth hurt?

SHUT UP!

You love them and leave them, is that what your going to do to this girl Emily?

QUITE!

I would say don't let her die but she's already dead, perfect for you isn't she jack?

GO TO HELL!

"Jack? JACK!" Emily was shaking his hand to try and get him out of his trance, " Sorry to startle you but you just sort of just stopped and looked

at the floor. "Jack looked up from his thoughts, "what? Oh, yes so sorry, um to answer your question, I must ask you something, has anyone by

the name of Sally come through her recently?" Jack looked at her nervous and excited and scared all at the same time. "Sally? OH! Her she was

so sweet." Jack's sockets grew wide with joy. "SHE"S HERE!" But Emily's eyes told him the answer," I'm so sorry, but people like that go

straight to heaven, she only stopped for a minute and faded into the next world." Jack slouched back into his chair . "I am sorry for your loss. Was

she a friend of yours?" Jack looked up with a sad face" yeah, but a little more them friends..." he looked back at the floor.

You're a monster

" Is there anything else you want to know? "Emily said trying to change the subject. "oh no, that...that was the only thing I really wanted to

know..."he trailed off,

She really is gone forever isn't she? I am sorry Sally, I hope you're happy

"Well let me start then, uh.. what is Halloween town like?" Jack looked up once again to see that smile of hers that make you smile too, he

straitened up in his chair and looked at her with a big grin on his face. "It is wonderful" And Jack began to talk about all the creatures and people

of his town, he talked about how he was the most frightening of all the people who lived there and that was why he was called the pumpkin king.

He talked about the Mayor and how he was a political nightmare. And as time passed he stopped being sad and started to have fun. And here

was Emily the whole time, just listening and nodding and occasionally giggling at something Jack had said. It did not take much time for them to

become friends. But just as they were really starting to have fun Jack asked "How long have we been here?" Emily looked up at tried to

remember. "A couple of hours, why, is something the matter?" Jacks socket widened" Hours! My goodness, the town must be going crazy! I have

to get back!" He jumped from his seat and headed towards the door, "Wait!" Emily raced after him. Jack was already at the ally way they had

come to this world in when Emily caught up with him, "How do I get back?" He looked at her and could see she was hurt that he was leaving, but

he had to, the Mayor really was not very capable of running things. "I 'm sorry but I really do need to leave." Emily Looked down for a moment

them looked up, and spoke in a whisper," Can I come with you?" Jack could scarcely hear her," I beg your pardon?" Se looked him strait in the

sockets, and spoke much more confidently," If I take you back up to the land of the living, will you take me to see your world?" Jack froze, he

really didn't know what to say, and what would the town's people say? "Please?" She walked a little closer and gave him that smile. And he

smiled back" Yes I think that could be arranged."
