Wee!

Clapping and cheering then filled the air as Sally, Kathleen, Nightshade and Shock walked over to Jack as the king of Halloween climbed out of the fountain.

"Great Halloween, everybody!" The Mayor happily told the town as he walked over to Jack and his family.

"I believe it was our most horrible yet. Thank you, everyone." Jack happily told the citizens as he wrapped one of his long arms around his wife's waist.

"No, thank you, Jack. Without your brilliant leadership..." The Mayor began before Jack interupted him.

"Not at all, Mayor." Jack interupted before The Mayor's head switched to his worried side.

"Jack, Sally, he's been found." The Mayor worringly told Jack causing the skeleton, his beloved bride and the entire town to look at The Mayor in shock while Shock, Kathleen and Nightshade looked at him curiously.

"Where is he?" Jack asked The Mayor.

"He's at Dr. Finklestein's but he's dying, Jack." The Mayor worringly told Jack causing Sally to look heartbrokenly at The Mayor.

"There must be something we can do." Sally worringly told her husband and The Mayor.

"Mom, what's wrong and who's 'he'?" Nightshade curiously asked Sally causing Jack to sigh.

"His name is Sora and he is a human from another world. He came here a long time ago, before Sally and I got together. He helped us defeat Oogie Boogie years before the Christmas Incident and helped us save Santa Claus's christmas presents from another of Doctor Finkelstein's experiments. A few days before the Christmas Incident, we recieved word that Sora had gone missing. Your mother and I wanted to help look for him but with Halloween just three days away, we didn't have time." Jack explained to the teens as Sally nodded before she looked curiously at The Mayor.

"Mayor, where was he?" Sally asked curiously causing The Mayor to sigh.

"He was found in the remains of Oogie Boogie's old hideout." The Mayor sadly explained to the Skellington family causing Jack to growl at the mention of his old enemy.

"Dad, is there any way we can save him?" Shock worringly asked Jack as she remembered many of Oogie Boogie's favorite tortures.

"There might be away." Jack told Shock before he looked at the vampire brothers who were standing nearby.

"You don't even have to ask us, Jack." the Vampire Prince told Jack before he and his brothers flew into the sky and then flew as fast as they could to Dr. Finkelstein's home.

"Now children, it's time to go home and head to bed." Jack then told his children causing Kathleen, Nightshade and Shock to turn around and then look curiously at their father.

"What about the human Sora? Are we going to meet him?" Kathleen curiously asked her father as she wondered what humans were like.

"Sora will be in pain for a while. A human is very delicate and being turned into a creature can be extremely painful for him." Sally explained to her children as she remembered reading about humans being turned into vampires in one of her father's books.

"Your mother's right. We need to give Sora time to grow accustomed to his new unlife." Jack then told his children causing Shock, Nightshade and Kathleen to nod before they began to walk away from their parents and into the fleeing crowd as Kathleen and her siblings began to think about the strange human.
