Ky sat down and crossed her legs. "I don't remember any of that..."
"I don't ever remember being here."
"Maybe someone didn't want us to remember. Someone probably modified our memories!" Ky said, standing up.
"Yeah, but why?" Jer asked. Ky's shoulder's sank.
"I have no idea... C'mon, we gotta go find Oogie." Jer stood up and followed her.
"I wonder if the other holidays disappeared too."
"Let's find out..."
---
Ky and Jer stared at the circle of trees. Ky fingered the outline of the Christmas door. "C'mon," Ky said and pried the door open. "I'll go first." Ky jumped and was followed in pursuit by Jer.
Ky sank into the snow and screamed- Jer had landed on top of her. "Jer... YOU'RE CRUSHING ME!!!"
"Huh?" Jer said, pulling his head from the snow.
"Never mind..." Ky said, pushing the teenage boy off of her back. "Oh no..." she moaned, falling to her knees in the gray snow.
"Here too..." Jer muttered.
The carousel was mashed to pieces, toys were scattered and the buildings seemed to have lost their shine. Ky wrapped her arms around herself and buried her head in her arms.
"The holidays are gone... KY! WON'T THAT AFFECT THE HUMAN WORLD TOO?!?" Jer shouted. Ky shot up.
"OH NO!!"
---
"Well?" Jer asked as Ky peeked into the street.
"What's today's date?"
"Uuhh... October 31st." Ky looked at her watch, it was ten p.m.
"The kids aren't out trick-or-treating."
"What?!" Jer said, accidentally letting her go. Ky landed on her back and rubbed her head. "Oops."
"Yeah, yeah, I love you too," Ky said, rolling her eyes as she pushed herself up. Jer scratched the back of his right hand, Ky stared at him.
"What?"
"Your-"
"Oh... It's nothing," Jer said quickly, shoving his hand in his pocket.
"But-"
"Let's get back to the Hinterlands," Jer said, giving Ky the hint that she should drop the subject.
---
"Well, what should we do now?" Jer asked.
"Look for a place that Oogie would be."
"Right."
SNAP.
The two froze in place. Something snapped again. The two turned slowly on the spot.
"Ky, tell me that's a figment of my imagination."
"I wish it was," Ky answered, as they stared into the faces of the skeletons.
---
AHH!! THE GIANT MUTANT SQUID HAS CREATED AN ARMY OF ZOMBIE CYBORGS TO DO HIS EVIL BIDDING!!- Zim
---
The two screamed and tore away as fast as they could. The duo pounced up a tree and stared at the ground, the King Skeleton was looking stupidly around for them.
"This isn't how I'd imagine spending Halloween," Ky said, staring at the army of skeletons.
"You're telling me."
--- Two Hours Later---
"They gone yet?" Jer asked, in a bored voice.
"Nope, still here." Jer groaned. "Hey! I know how we can get out!"
"How?" Jer asked, staring at her. Ky jumped from the branch to the nearby tree.
"C'mon!" she shouted and jumped again, this time with Jer in pursuit.
"How long do you think we can keep this up, Ky?" Jer asked.
"No idea, but we'll find out."
---
Yeah, there's gonna be a lot of secret's about Jer's past in Halloween Town. *Does an Evil Zim laugh*
