Chapter 2

Pomni and Sally looked at the damage of their arms, then they heard someone come into the graveyard, then hid. They saw Garfield and Jack walk in. They ducked down when they walked by then looked from a different view. The two walked by the graves of two dogs. Jack tapped his leg then two ghosts dogs came out of the graves. Jack and Garfield went to a statue. Jack put a finger to his chin. Then they began to sing.

"There are few who'd deny, at what I do I am the best

For my talents are renowned far and wide

When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night

I excel without ever even trying"

Garfield sang jumping onto some graves stepping on each top making spooky movements.

"With the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charms

I have seen grown men give out a shriek"

Jack went to two statues

"With the wave of my hand, and a well-placed moan I have swept the very bravest off their feet"

Jack got sad and leaned on it hanging his arm on it.

"Yet year after year, it's the same routine And I grow so weary of the sound of screams And We, Jack and Garfield, the Pumpkin King and were-cat Have grown so tired of the same old thing"

The dogs and Sally and pomni were saddened at the sound of their despair. The two walked to the tall hill.

"Oh, somewhere deep inside of these/this bones/heart
An emptiness began to grow

There's something out there, far from our home"

Pomni and Sally went to the horse statue.

"A longing that we've never known"

The dogs looked up at the two looking saddened and worry. Jack sang as he lit up the pumpkins and ghosts shot out of them wailing.

"I'm the master of fright, and a demon of light
And I'll scare you right out of your pants"

The two girls went from each grave one at a time, to get closer to the skeleton and cat.

"To a guy in Kentucky, we're Mr. Unlucky And I'm known throughout England and France"

The dogs heard something and almost saw the two.

"And since I am dead, I can take off my head
To recite Shakespearean quotations
No animal nor man can scream like we can
With the fury of my recitations"

The dogs smiled at the sound of it.

"But who here would ever understand
That the Pumpkin King/werecat with the skeleton/toothy grin
Would tire of his crown, if they only understood
He'd give it all up if he only could."

The girls were saddened. The girls hid again when the two turned to their direction. They walked down the hill as it helped them down to the ground.

"Oh, there's an empty place in my bones/heart
That calls out for something unknown
The fame and praise come year after year
Does nothing for these empty tears"

They left the graveyard and entered the haunted forest.

Sally and pomni came out of their hiding spot then looked at the hill they were at. Sally said "Jack, I know how you feel."
Pomni said "Garfield I know how hard it is."

At a little garden they began to gather herbs which happen to be deadly night shade. They placed it into a jar when they went back to the castle. They heard Dr. finkelstein came down. "Sally, Pomni." They hid the deadly night shade before he came down "you've come back."

Pomni said "We had to."

Dr. Finkelstein asked "For these?" He showed their arms as they waved to them. Sally said "Yes.

Dr. Finkelstein said "Shall we then?" They began to walk to the lab getting the arms back on "That's twice this month you've slipped deadly nightshade into my tea and run off..."
Sally said "Three times."
Dr. Finkelstein shouted "You're mine you know! I made you with my own hands."

Pomni said "You can make other creations. We're restless, I can't help it."

Dr. Finkelstein said "It's a phase my dear, it'll pass." He finished the sewing then cut off the thread. "We need to be patient that's all."

Sally said "But, we don't want to be patient."

In the forest they continued walking. Odie and zero barked

Jack said "No Zero, Odie not now. I'm not in the mood."

The dogs barked again flying in front of him.

Jack said "All right." He took out his rib then showed it to the dogs "Here ya go boys." He tossed it as the dogs looked around to find the ribs into a tree they grabbed them then flew back to the two.

Back to Halloweentown,

Mayor drove up to the two's house, waking up the band.  "Morning gents." He walked up the steps humming This Is Halloween, then he walks up to Jack's front door and rings the doorbell. He continued humming then waved to the band then rang again "Jack, Garfield you home?" He was getting worried, switches face and knocks with desperation then switch back to happy face. "Jack? Garfield? I've got the plans for next Halloween. I need to go over them with you so we can get started." He dropped the plans as his worried face showed up "Jack, garfield, please, I'm only an elected official here. I can't make decisions by myself." He grabbed his megaphone "Jack, Garfield, answer me!!"

Then he leaned back to far then began rolling down the steps hitting the gate. Accordion Player said "They're not home." Mayor asked "Where are they?"

Sax player said "They haven't been home all night."
The mayor groaned placing his face back to the ground "Oooooh."

back to the forest, it was morning as the skeleton and pets were in the forest still.

Jack yawned "Where are we?" They saw a place. Garfield said "It's someplace new." The two went between the trees. The dogs were hesitant and barked.
Jack asked "What is this?"

The two sees Valentine's tree, shamrock tree, Easter egg tree, turkey tree in confusion then they saw something new. They gasped when they saw the Xmas tree door. Jack turns knob to open it to see nothing. They shrugged then snowflakes came out then sucked the two in. "Woah-oa-oa!" "Yikes!" When they fell in the door closed on the dogs as they barked.
