Jackie woke up to the strong smell of beer. She opened her eyes to see Barrell sleeping opposite her on the sofa, beer cans all over him. "Good mornin'" Lock said kissing her neck. Jackie pulled away, Lock looked at her worryingly, "you OK, babe?" he asked. She nodded, thinking it was all a dream. She got out of bed and got changed, ready for the day.
Walking through Halloweentwon was different, people kept looking at her like she was dirt, then they would look at Lock, his arms around her, the they would look away. Jackie looked at everything, the people, the buildings, all them same. Jackie realized that they were heading to the forest, the place where she had fleed so many times before. Shcok and Barrell stayed close.
they stopped infront of a big tree, Shock stepped forward and pulled a twig, a door soon opened.
Barrell jumped in first, then Shock. Lock stepped aside for Jackie to go in, Jackie looked inside, pure darkness, she got in and soon felt she was falling.
They landed on a soft mat. Jackie saw that Shock and Barrell was already up, so she got up too. Lock soon dropped down, too. They were in Oogie's Lair. A door opened and Oogie came walking out.
"Welcome, guys!" he shouted, shaking their hands, he saw Jackie and held out his arms. "Jackie" he said grabbing her hand "welcome my dear." kissing her hand. Jackie narrowed her eyes, being cautious. The door opened again, this time Moogie came walking out. Jackie smiled and ran to him, giving him a hug. Moogie laughed "hey to you too" he said.
"Oi!" Lock shouted, running over, "that's MY girl." he said laughing, Moogie laughed too, they both exchanged highfives. Jack then realized, this was the wish. Moogie wasn't hers.
"Everyone remember the plan?" Oofie asked. They all walked over and nodded, Jackie didn't have a clue.
"What plan?" she asked.
"To get rid of the Skellingtons?" Lock said, "remember?". Jackie's eyes widened.
"What?". They looked at her as if she had lost her mind, in which case, she had.
The gang waited outside the Skellington household for Oogie to give the heads-up.
After 15 long minutes, Oogie appeared and gave the signal. Jackie walked up to the door, knocked the knocker against the door. Jack answered the door, his smile turning into a frown.
"What do you want?" he asked. Jackie stared at him, over and over again the thought 'that's my dad' entered her mind.
"You..you forgot to give me money" she said, going along with the plan.
"What?" he asked, immediatley LSB grabbed Jack, dragging him to the car. Oogie and Jackie went upstairs to grab Sally, they got her and took her away.
They got back to Oogie's Lair, Jack and Sally were downstairs being tortured by Oogie and LSB, Moogie and Jackie were upstairs, Jackie felt like crying.
"Your not enjoying this?" Moogie asked her. Jackie lookd up, tears wealing in her eyes.
"Not really." she said, starting to cry. Moogie got up and out his arms around her, she cuddled into him.
"Lock had a go at me, y'know." he suddenley said.
"Why's that?" Jackie asked, whiping away tears.
"Because he thinks you like me." Moogie said, looking into her eyes. Jackie stared at Moogie, she smiled and gently whispered "not true", it crushed her inside. Mooge softly held his tanned hand against her cheek.
"Shame" he said, moving in closely "because i love you.." with his other hand on her waist, he kissed her. Jackie put both hands on his cheeks, her hands moving up and ruffling his hair, kissing him back. Lock walked up the steps and opened the door, shocked to find them kissing.
"Lock..." Jackie whispered.
What will happen?
