1) The Doors
I didn't know where I was. I was just walking aimlessly through...somewhere. There was a blindfold over my eyes so I had no idea where I was. My only hope was to trust Alexander with his sense of direction.
"Alexander, why can't you tell me where we're going?"
My vampire boyfriend didn't answer. Instead, he impatiently pulled me ahead more. It wasn't that I didn't trust Alexander. I trusted him with my life. It's just that he would have said something by now. I was starting to wonder if it was even HIS hand I was holding on to. My god, Raven, I thought to myself. How could you doubt your own soulmate? That shut my thoughts up for the time.
When he finally spoke, there was a smile in his voice. "Okay. We're here."
Alexander let go of my hand and untied my blindfold so I could see where "here" was. It turns out that "here" should have been "WAY out of here".
It was like I was in my bed and watching
The Nightmare Before Christmas. Actually, it was
exactly like that!
We were in the forest where Jack found the holiday doors. Specifically, we were in the MIDDLE of the surrounding holiday doors! This was way way way WAY out of this world!
I staggered backwards slightly, but Alexander caught me. I was mumbling like an idiot. Alexander laughed.
"I thought you might like this," he said.
I looked up at him. My eyes caught his. I could tell that this was all for real. No tricks whatsoever.
Alexander took my hand and led me to the door with the pumpkin door. He began to recite something. Then I realized it was the opening from the movie.
"T'was a long time ago
Longer now than is seems
In a place that perhaps you have seen in your dreams
For the story that you are about to be told
Took place in the holiday worlds of old
Now you're probably wondering where holidays come from
If you haven't, I say it's time you begun."
Alexander could give Patrick Stewart a run in for his money.
My boyfriend opened the door and beckoned me towards it.
"Shall we?"
I hesitated slightly, but I went up to it and peered inside.
Nothing.
"There's nothing in here," I said to him.
Alexander just shook his head and took my hand.
"Silly, Raven. Wait for it."
What did he mean? And what was "it"?
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind came out and grabbed us both. Now I remembered. That's how Jack ended up in Christmas Town. The wind pulled him in.
Oh crap.
Then I remembered that I had my vampire with me. I looked at him and he smiled.
"Hang on!" he exclaimed.
And before you could say "good Goth", we were tumbling into darkness.
