It was the same girl who was at the window.
"Hi There." I said, hopefully she'd play along and help me trick Kira.
"You know her?" Kira said, bewildered.
"Yep." It wasn't entirely a lie. I did know her, I just wasn't her friend and I didn't know her name.
"Then why did you hide from her and scream when she found you?" She pointed out.
"Playing hide and seek?" I said, praying that she'll fall for it.
"Found you. Give me the book!" She reached for the book which I hid at my side so Kira didn't see it. I reached out and grabbed the bottom of it.
"You kept the book!? TITCH!!!!" Kira was mad. And I MEAN mad. Worse then when I died Oogie pink and tied him to Town Fountain...I never did get him down...Oops?
"Cavista!" I yelled, leaves from the fern in the corner of the room wrapped around the stranger, holding her tightly, making her let go of the book.
I dived out from under the bed, dragging Kira by the wrist while holding onto the book and I dove out the window.
"Titch! Are you crazy we're on the 15th floooooooooooooooooor!!!!" The word 'Floor' turned into a scream by the time we got out the window. I let go of Kira part way down and hit the floor- Well, I thought I hit the floor. I stopped dead 10 centimetre's off the ground. Hovered for a few seconds then landed... then groaned. Kira was stuck on a lamp post just above me.
"I told you not to wear the cloak." I said.
"It's custom. Vampires have to-"
"VAMPIRES!?!" I shrieked.
"...Yes."
"You're a Vampire and you never told me?"
"I said we changed." She pointed out. Just as I opened my mouth to speak, the person was floating down.
"Cavista!" A hand-like branch came down and freed Kira's cloak from the lamp post and we sprinted off.
“Get me down from here!!!” Oogie yelled as we ran past Town Fountain.
“Sorry, Oogie, busy!!” I yelled as I ran straight past him and heard him shout in frustration.
The girl stopped and freed Oogie then carried on chasing us, Oogie joined in.
“…Uh-oh…” I said, realising something.
“What now!?” Kira said, frustrated.
“I JUST realised it probably wasn’t a good idea to blow up the mayor’s car, play football with Jack’s head, blow up Finky’s lab…” I said, listing a long list of ways I somehow peeved off every single person in HT. By now there was a huge angry crowd chasing us.
“One day I’ll learn to stop hanging around with you.” Kira said, glaring at me. THUD. Kira ran straight into a tree. I slowed to a stop.
“Kira?” She was out cold and the crowd was closing in, I had no time to check on her, so I kept running. They all stopped and circled into a group around her. I stopped and dove behind a bush, then someone grabbed my shoulders and turned me around, it was the girl again.
“Ok, seriously, the book. My foster parents will kill me if I’m not back soon.” She said, it sounded really out of character for her.
“Who are you?” I asked, it was the only thing I could think of to say…
“Kimiko. Kimiko Tokiwa.” She said, “Call me Kim.”
“…Uh…Ok?”
“Ok, hand over the book.” She sounded as if she was talking to was talking to someone she’s know for ages. It was kinda creepy.
“…Uh, Ok.” I handed her a book, shrugging and she disappeared. I mean, literally disappeared in front of my eyes. “…Weird.”
I reached into the bush and pulled out the real book. Heh, the old switch-a-roo. Classic.
I stood up and looked around, looks like the crowd left. Then Kim appeared in front of me again.
“Eep!”
“Ok, quit kidding around. Give me the book.” Then she snatched the real book out my hands and hit me on the head with my History book, the one I gave her instead of the spell book.
“Ow.” I complained, rubbing my head.
“Hmph.” She complained and disappeared once again.
I rolled my eyes and walked back towards main town, when I looked around I spotted something weird…There was no one here.
“Kira? Jack? Mayor?” I asked, looking around.
No reply.
Then I heard music coming from Oogie’s Lair. A party?
I ran up and looked in the window, but they’d been tinted so I couldn’t see inside. I ran around, through the tree house and slid down the pipe. I saw a crowd of people around me and they through a sack over my head.
“Hey! Let me out!” I shouted. I heard many different voices.
“Piñata!” One shouted.
“Yeah! We got her!” yelled another.
“Give me the bat!” demanded someone else.
WHACK!
Then there was silence, darkness, loss of consciousness.
