"Twenty two bottles of chocolate milk on the wall, twenty two bottles of chocolate milk... I take one down, drink it down, and I have twenty more bottles of chocolate milk on the wall..." "OKAY! You have been singing that STUPID SONG since we finished the last chapter! HOW IN THE HELL MUCH LONGER ARE YOU GONNA SING!?" Fate asked, shaking Tikara off her head. "I'M BORED! Entertain me!" Tikara asked, floating back onto Fate's head.
"...Does anyone else besides me feel like we've been stuck here for over two week's without an update?" Daze asked, turning around and looking at Fate. "...AUTHOR! GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE AND EXPLAIN YOURSELF!" Fate yelled out, knowing he was too drunk to ignore her. Suddenly, a little girl came out instead.
"...Alright. Who decided to bring a child out here?" Fate asked, looking at the child. "GODDAMN SHUT UP!" The Author cried out, hopping off of a tree. "Her name is Flaire. She, unlike all of us, has some common decency." The Author said, patting Flaire's head. "Yeah I'm happy and calm even though I had a lot of sugar say you wanna go do something I dunno like find some more sugar or maybe Miracle or better yet go streaking in the middle of the town square I think I'm kinda hyper let's go insane and party WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" Note: That came from Flaire.
"...o
_O..." Daze could only stare, utterly shocked that all of that could be said in less than two seconds. "... Does she have a guardian, or maybe some therapist?" Fate asked, backing away. "I know someone and that someone is named Vivia and she takes care of me when 7broken7 isn't around to lock me in a closet and when he is around to lock me in the closet I like to hang out in there because I can take my clothes off and no one notices hey do you think The Author has ever tried to rape anyone besides Jack?" Flaire blathered on.
"... Flaire! Did you fill your lungs with sugar again!?" Vivia asked, appearing out of nowhere. "Bonejangles is gonna be so pissed off at you..." "...Oh. You must be the mother and or owner of this hyperactive child." Daze asked, shaking loose the randomness. "... Noooo ... My name is Vivia. I only take care of her, and so does Nalani, wherever she is..." She sighed, taking Flaire and stuffing her in a closet.
"...Oh, yeah! Check out what I can do!" The Author took out a pencil and started drawing. "I got this from another fanfic written by TNBCKnowitall! It's called 'The Nightmare Elements!' This pencil makes me draw stuff evilly!" The Author laughed, finishing up his drawing. "BEHOLD! My very own VictorXJack Drawing!"
Everyone screamed at once, fainting in the exact same moment. Except for The Author, because the drawing came to life and kicked him in the nuts. Anyway, they eventually woke up, and were in the middle of the circle of holiday trees. "...Uh... Anyone else besides me wondering how this happened?" Fate asked, shaking her head.
"I can answer that!" Tikara said, wearing a funny hat and looking like Sherlock Holmes. Or maybe Indiana Jones. I can't remember. "I had to teleport us here! It was either that, or we die horrible, miserable deaths by The Author's crappy drawings!" Tikara stated, glomping Fate. "And we're alive! I can still glomp you!"
"Fine, fine. Glomp me and whatever. Just let me get up!" Fate said, throwing Tikara off. Tikara shook her head for a moment, and looked at Fate. "Why did you throw me off? I wuv you! You don't throw someone off who nubs you!" Tikara glomped Fate again. "...Alright, fine. Just don't do anything... disturbing..." Fate said, sighing heavily.
"What's wrong now? You're acting like Miracle when he decided to stop writing his fanfic for the fifth time!" Tikara joked, crawling around on Fate's head."...There are too many women here... Too many people to worry about..." Fate stated, sitting under a tree. "Oh, come on! Friends are good!" Tikara said, waving her tail in front of Fate's face.
"Listen! This is something that's conflicting with me! Too many people here, ESPECIALLY WOMEN, eventually means that they're gonna find out one of my secrets!" Fate stated, starting to cry. "I can't take something like this! I only want friends, but it's starting to become deeper than that!"
"... I don't get it." Tikara stated, sitting in Fate's lap. "Are you trying to say something, or is this some random crying that The Author is forcing you to do?" "... These tears are my own... My secret... I'll tell you later. For now, we gotta go into the next holiday..." Fate said, wiping her tears away. She hugged Tikara, and stood up.
"... Her secret is personnel. She thinks that women spread rumors faster than anyone." The Author stated, stepping out from behind a tree. "Her secret is something about Miracle... Promise me that when you find out, you won't tell anyone." The Author asked, sitting besides Tikara. "Of course! I nub my friends, and she trusts me!" Tikara stated, glomping The Author.
"... Right. Don't spread it around. Specifically because When I reveal it at the end of this chapter, I want people to gasp about it and write me PM's about it." The Author joked, standing up. "I AM OFF! TO THE BAR OF THE NEXT HOLIDAY!" The Author screamed to the heavens, running off. Tikara waved him goodbye, and flew back to the circle of trees.
Everyone was awake by now. Fate looked perfectly normal in her pink hoodie, helping everyone up. "Alright, what is the next holiday gonna be?..." Daze asked, looking at the holiday doors. She spotted the Valentines Day door, and walked over to it. "Seem's like the best option, right?" "...Fine, fine. Vivia, Flaire and Nalani must have been transported back to town, then..." Fate noticed the three were gone, shaking her head.
Tikara opened the door, going through. "I'll meet you two on the other side, alright?" Tikara asked, not letting them answer her question. Fate hopped in, and then Daze. On the other side, they were horrified by what they were seeing. Everything, EVERYTHING, was PINK!
"...Too...Cheery...Must...End...Pain..." Fate mumbled, covering her eyes. "PRETTY PINK! WEE!" Tikara screamed, rolling around in some flowers. "PRETTY PURPLE! PRETTY PINK! PRETTY PIRKLE!" "...What's a pirkle?" daze asked, looking at the flowers. "A mix of pink and purple... Nothing that imagination can't do." Fate replied, rolling around in the flowers. "Flowers don't come out in Halloweentown very often... Too dark."
Tikara stood up, stretching what she could. "Alright, I'm sleepy. I'm gonna find a hotel and a bar. WE NEED TO GET WASTED TONIGHT!" She flew off, leaving the other two alone. "...Miracle is you're father? ..." Fate asked Daze, sighing heavily. "Yeah... I haven't seen him in awhile. I don't even remember what he looked like..." Daze replied, looking at the stars above.
"You don't have to remember. Just remember that he loved you... He still does, in all likelihood..." Fate replied, lying on her back. "Maybe..." Daze sighed, shaking her head. "I'm gonna go find Tikara, then. When you get tired, come find us. The hotel for the holiday's is always in the town square. That's a rule of the holiday worlds." Daze stated, walking away.
Fate just sat there, looking at the sky. "... I don't know if I want to go back..." Fate sighed to herself, shaking her head. "YOU HAVE TO GO BACK! THAT'S WHERE THE PLOT TWIST TAKES PLACE!" The Author said, popping out of the ground with a little miner's hat. "... Are you eves dropping on me?" Fate asked, cracking her knuckles. "...Well, look at the time. Time for Sildra to kick my ass! LATER!" The Author crawled back into the hole, screaming because he forgot to bring a light with him.
Fate sighed, standing back up. She started walking towards the Hotel. "I don't know id they want to know my secrets... I mean, the most important one would probably make me friendless..." She she looked through the window, seeing Tikara drinking some chocolate milk. I don't want to lose this friendship... But that's too hard..." She shed a tear, wiped it off, and went inside. She thought to herself. "I don't want to lose these friendships so I must keep it secret that I'm gay."
