The residents of Halloween Town where buzzing as they prepared for the fast arriving October 31st. Jack and Sally stood on the hill in the pumpkin patch, gazing at the sky. After a few moments, two black specks appeared. As they got closer, they grew and revealed themselves as a young woman and a girl, each with wings in their backs. Jack waved at them. The woman took the child's hand and they landed infront of Jack and Sally. "Monarch!" Jack cried, hugging his old friend tight and being careful not to crush her sparkling monarch butterfly wings. "How good to see you again!" Monarch grinned and hugged Jack back. "As to you, Jack. Same to you, Sally," she added, nodding to Sally as Jack released her. Sally smiled. "Wonderful to have you back, your highness," she greeted. Monarch grinned again. "For goodness sake, Sally, if I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times, just cause I'm the fairy princess doesn't mean you have to address me as 'your highness'. It's way too formal. Just call me Monarch, like everyone else." Sally smiled again and nodded. "And this must be your new daughter?" she inquired, gazing at the eleven year old girl standing next to Monarch. Monarch smiled and placed a hand on the child's shoulder. "Aye. Jack, Sally, this is Terra. Full title, Terrasil Moonrunner of Crythinor, second Princess of the Humanoid Fairies. Terra, this is my old friend Jack Skellington and his fiance Sally." Terra stepped forward and curtsied low. "An honor to meet thee, Milady and Sire," she said graceously. She rose. Jack smiled and bowed, taking her hand and kissing the back of it. "An honor to meet you too, young princess." Terra grinned and skipped back to her mom. "Well, why don't you two come with us to the house?" Sally offered. "I'm sure your wings could use the rest, and I bet you two are also pretty hungry." Monarch smiled and took Terra's hand as they followed Jack and Sally down the hill and out of the pumpkin patch towards the town. "So, Jack," Monarch asked. "Anything wonderfully wicked and suprisingly spooky planned for this year?" Jack grinned. "In all my years, I've never seen anyone that loved Halloween as much as you do outside of the town, Monarch." Monarch shrugged. "I'm nocturnal. Anything that has to do with night and costumes is fine by me." Sally and Terra laughed. They all continued through the town, talking about this Halloween and greeting anyone they passed. Monarch looked up suddenly and saw a man she didn't reconize. He had spiky red hair, green eyes, and green teardrop shaped tatoos under each eye. "Who's that?" she asked, nodding to the man. Jack looked at the man. "That's Axel. He comes by every now and then. He's the one that's been taking care of that Heartless problem." Monarch nodded. In Sally's recent letters, she'd been telling Monarch of mysterious creatures that had been popping up around town known as Heartless. Apparently, that guy was the exterminator. This thought put her at ease, but he still didn't look like a guy she'd want to be caught alone with without her dagger. The man suddenly looked up. He saw Monarch then grinned, winking. Monarch kept her face expressionless. She reached over and flicked the hood of Terra's cloak over her head before reaching up and putting her own hood up as they walked past.

Monarch walked alone through the pumpkin patch. Terra was at Jack's house with he and Sally, and she had slipped out to have a one of her solitary moments. "Well, hey there, cutie," a voice said. Monarch jumped and spun around. There, leaning against a tree, was Axel, the man from earlier. Monarch again made her face expressionless. "Who be ye?" she asked. The man smirked and straightened, crossing his arms over his chest. "I don't speak very good king's English," he commented. "Who the freak are you?" He smirked again. "The name's Axel. A-X-E-L. Got it memorized?" Monarch narrowed her eyes slightly. "Yeah. Mine's Marria. M-A-R-R-I-A. Got it memorized?" She turned on her heel and continued walking. After a few moments, Axel had caught up to her, walking alongside her. "So, what's a pretty little girl like you doing in a creepy place like this?" he questioned. Monarch stared straight ahead. "If you have to know, I'm here visiting a friend for Halloween. And I don't find this place so creepy. I happen to love Halloween. This place is like a second home to me." Axel smirked again. "Still, some of the people here aren't too friendly. They'll take advantage of a pretty little girl." In a flash, Axel was pinned to a tree, the blade of a dagger at his throat. "I'm tougher then I look," Monarch growled. Her eyes not leaving him, she pulled the dagger away and placed it back in the sheath that hung from her belt on her hip. She crossed her arms over her chest. "I'm no maiden," she added. Axel, recovering from the shock of the blade being so close to his flesh, shook his head and smiled cockily. "Isn't a maiden a girl?" "Not to my people," Monarch explained gruffly. "To us, a maiden is a defensless, naive little girl that wanders through the woods, getting lost at every turn, and requires a guard to take her anywhere and fight her fights for her. I am NOT a maiden." Axel stepped foreward and held his hands up defensively. "Alright, I'm sorry. I didn't know." Monarch sighed. "It's fine. How would you know, anyway." She tilted her head back and looked at the moon. Midnight. "It's late," she said out loud. "I'd better get home. My daughter's waiting for me." "Daughter? So, there's a dad in the picture?" Axel asked. Monarch could tell by his tone it was simply out of curiousity, nothing more. "No. She's adopted." Axel nodded. "Mind if I come with you? I need to see Jack about something." Monarch shrugged. "Sure." She took a few steps before halting. "Wait. How did you know I was staying with Jack?" Axel grinned. "He's been talking about his guests for about a week now." Monarch shrugged again. "Fair enough." They walked out of the pumpkin patch, talking about random things about Halloween Town.
* * * * * *
Jack looked out the window. Sally had put Terra to bed in her and Monarch's room. Monarch herself was walking up to the porch with Axel. Sally walked in. "Well, looks like Monarch met Axel," Jack told her. Sally's eyes widened. "Oh no. Do you think she did something to him?" Jack shook his head. "No. If she did, he'd be in a full body cast." Monarch and Axel stopped at the porch. Monarch knocked on the door. After a few moments, Jack ansewered it. "There you are, Monarch! And Axel, please come in." He stepped to the side as Monarch and Axel walked in. Jack turned to Monarch. "Terra's already in bed. You can go with Sally to your room if you want to." Monarch smiled and nodded, walking to where Sally was waiting and following her up the stairs. Axel watched the two women as they disapeared, then turned to Jack. "Well, she's pretty." Jack crossed his arms over his chest. "And uninterested. Trust me." "Why do you say that?" "Axel, you would not BELEAVE how many men have tried to charm Monarch. She's turned them all down." Axel grinned. "I like a challenge." Jack sighed. "Go too far and consider yourself in the hospital," he warned. Axel smirked. "And I like tough girls." He turned and walked out the door, closing it behind him. Jack stared at the door for a few minutes. He shook his head. "That boy better be careful," he muttered. "If he says the wrong thing, he won't live to see the next Halloween."
* * * * * *
Monarch stopped outside the door to the room she and Terra where sharing. She turned to Sally. "Does Axel know about our secret?" she asked. Sally shook her head. "No. All he knows is that you're an old friend of me and Jack's. Don't worry, Monarch. The secret of your people is safe with me." Monarch smiled and hugged Sally. "Thanks, Sally. Good night." She quietly opened the door and stepped through, closing it to go to bed like her daughter.
