[Lock's POV:] (AN: I repeat. I don't own any of these characters. Only my OC's)

"No!" I screamed as Shock's hands slipped through my fingers. Jack pulled her back. Barrel set the tub to maxuim speed and Shock became distant. Farther and farther. "Turn back, Barrel! Turn back!" I ordered.

"I can't once the tub gets moving. It's moving," He stated. I watched as Shock was lifted up by Jack. She squirmed and kicked but it was no use. Once Jack grabbed one of us...it was the end. He had us. I watched as Jack yelled at her. As he gave her to Sally. "Shock." I sighed, reaching my hand out. Even though she was far away, it felt like I could still feel her touch. "What's wrong? Do you miss her?" Barrel asked, interupting my thoughts.

"Huh? Oh. Pfft! No. Let's go. Um...let's go feed Oogie." I lied. Barrel nodded and steered the tub. He was at the very tip but I was at the very end. I looked away from Shock as she stared at me. I felt kinda bad. As I turned back, I saw her lowering her head and walking away with Sally by her side. "Wait, Barrel, take a turn." I ordered.

"What?" He asked.

"Turn!" I leaned to the left and the tub took a turn into the cementary. Barrel fell to the side as we took the sharp turn.

"What are you doing? I steer the tub!" Barrel yelled. I jumped out of the tub and ran to Moonlight Hill. Under Moonlight Hill was the pumkin patch. It was the cementary that was behind the curly hill. Barrel followed me as I ran through the headstones. "What are you doing?" Barrel asked, skattering after me.

"Shock need us. Shock needs me." I replied.

"Why didn't you just say so?" He asked. Barrel grabbed my leg and threw me into his tub. I landed flat on my head. It hurt really bad. Usually I would land on Shock's soft hat. We always jump in at the same time. We would throw Barrel in first so he could drain the water and then we'd would leap in after him.

"I miss Shock." I sighed so softly that Barrel couldn't hear me.

[Shock's POV:]

"And that's the whole school." Drake stated, holding my hand. He had his free hand in his pocket. We were outside the school.

"This is my school. Where I get eight hours of sleep a day." He said. I started to laugh but stopped when he gave me a serious look.

"I'm kidding!" He laughed. Drake was becoming nicer. I actually trusted him.

"Wait, here. You gotta taste this Pumkin Punch. It's the best!" He suggested.

"Okay." I replied. As he walked away, I felt someone cover my mouth. I turned around to see Sally.

"We need to leave." She ordered.

"What? Why? I like it here." I said, backing away.

"Just...ugh. Follow me." Sally grabbed my and dragged me into Town Square. I couldn't believe my eyes. Lock and Barrel were destroying everything. It was my best dreams but without me by their side, it was just a nightmare. They kept chanting,

Where's our Shock,

And do not mock!

"You're gonna have to go back home." Sally explained.

"What? No way! I like here. I want to say here. With you. And everyone else." I denied.

"Shock, that's very nice but...C'mon, look!" She ordered, pointing to the boys. They were destroying everything. I really was becoming mature. I needed to stop thinking about myself. "If you go, you can come back to school everyday." Sally suggested. I sighed and nodded in reply.

"Hey!" I yelled, loudly. The boys turned to look at me.

"Shock!" They yelled back, running to me. Lock grabbed Barrel's leg and threw him into the tub. He waited for me to jump in at the same time.

"Three of a kind." He pronouced happily, reaching for my hand. I looked back at Sally, sadly. Then, back at my friend.

"Birds of a feather." I sighed, grabbing his hand. We leaped into the tub together.

"Now -" Lock started. Barrel joined in on the second word.

"And -" They continued. They looked at me. They put there hands in the middle, waiting for me to join in. I slowly dropped my hand with them.

"Forever!" Lock and Barrel cheered, throwing there hands in the air.

"Forever." I said, late and weakly throwing my hand in the air. We traveled at maxuim speed
