Chapter 4

Everyone began to find a place to sit for the meeting.

Jack said "Listen everyone. We want to tell you about Christmastown."

The mayor lit a spotlight, as the bats flew away.

Garfield sang "There are objects so peculiar They were not to be believed. All around, things to tantalize our brains. It's a world unlike anything we've ever seen And as hard as I try I can't seem to describe. Like a most improbable dream. But you must believe when we tell you this. It's as real as our skulls and it does exist. Here, let me show you."

Garfield pulled on a string to show many things from ChristmasTown as everyone was in awe. Sally and pomni said "Ooh!"

Jack picked up a present.

Jack sang "This is a thing called a present The whole thing starts with a box"

Devil sang "A box? Is it steel?"

Werewolf sang "Are there locks?"

Roy sang "Is it filled with a pox?"

Devil sang "A pox How delightful, a pox"

Jack sang "If you please Just a box with bright-colored paper."

Garfield tapped on the bow.

Garfield sang "And the whole thing's topped with a bow."

SpongeBob, Booker, and Sheldon and Patrick went close to them.

SpongeBob sang "A bow? But why?"

Patrick sang "How ugly."

Booker sang "What's in it?"

Sheldon sang "What's in it?"

Jack sang "That's the point of the thing, not to know."

The clown grabbed the present.

Clown sang "It's a bat!"

Creature Under The Stairs sand "Will it bend?"

Clown sang "It's a rat!"

Creature Under The Stairs sang "Will it break?"

Undersea Gal sang "Perhaps it s the head that I found in the lake"

Jack took the present back.

Jack sang "Listen now, you don't understand That's not the point of Christmas land"

Garfield sang "Now, pay attention We pick up an oversized sock And hang it like this on the wall."

Garfield took the stocking then put it on the wall.

Wade sang "Oh, yes! Does it still have a foot?"

N showed behind Wade.

N sang "Let me see, let me look"

Uzi showed up behind N.

Uzi sang "Is it rotted and covered with gook?"

Garfield said "Um, let us explain There's no foot inside, but there's candy." Garfield sang "Or sometimes it's filled with small toys"

Garfield took out the small toys.

Orson and Roy sang "Small toys?"

Roy sang "Do they bite?"

Orson sang "Do they snap?" Orson clapped his hands.

Roy sang "Or explode in a sack?"

Corpse kid sang "Or perhaps they just spring out And scare girls and boys"

Mayor sang "What a splendid idea This Christmas sounds fun I fully endorse it Let's try it at once."

His foot landed on a weak board, then he hit the spotlight making it go everywhere making everyone blind a bit.

Jack sang "Everyone, please now, not so fast There's something here that you don't quite grasp."

Everyone muttered in confusion.

Garfield said "Well, we may as well give them what they want.

The two walked down to the crowd.

Garfield and Jack sang "And the best, we must confess, we have saved for the last. For the ruler of this Christmas land Is a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice Least that's what we come to understand. And we also heard it told That he's something to behold Like a lobster, huge and red When he sets out to slay with his rain gear on Carting bulging sacks with his big great arms That is, so we heard it said And on a dark, cold night Under full moonlight He flies into a fog Like a vulture in the sky And they call him Sandy Claws"

They laughed deeply. As the crowd cheered.

Jack sang "Well, at least they're excited."

Garfield sang "But they don't understand That special kind of feeling in Christmas land Oh, well..." Garfield got a snowglobe then shook it.

At night, Jack and Garfield were in bed reading Christmas stories. They looked around at the Christmas decorations around the room, then looked at the dogs holding Christmas treats in their mouths as they slept.

Jack said "There's got to be a logical way to explain this Christmas thing."

Garfield asked "But how?"

Jack then got an idea then took out a book of the scientific method.

At Dr. Finkelstein's lab, Sally and Pomni were in their room as Dr. Finkelstein had an ice pack on his head.

Dr. Finkelstein said "You both poisoned me for the last time you wretched girls."

He closed their door then heard the doorbell ring.

Dr. Finkelstein said "Oh my head...the door is open."

Garfield and Jack opened the door.

Jack and Garfield called out "Hello?"

Dr. Finkelstein said "Jack Skellington, Garfield! Up here my boys."

The girls were excited.

Garfield said "Doctor, we need to borrow some equipment."

The two walked up the steps.

Dr. Finkelstein asked "Is that so, whatever for?"

Jack replied "We're conducting a series of experiments."

Dr. Finkelstein said "How perfectly marvelous. Curiosity killed the cat, you know. Not you Garfield, the other cat."

Garfield said "I know."

Dr. Finkelstein said "Come on into the lab and we'll get you all fixed up."

The girls heard through the conversation through the door.

Sally and Pomni asked "Hmm. Experiments?"

At their home the dogs were sleeping then they woke up to a voice.

Garfield said "Zero, Odie! We're home."

They went to the table then took out the experimental items. Jack took a berry from a mistletoe then looked at it through the microscope only to have the berry and the glass break. Garfield then used some electricity on a candy cane when he pulled it out it became a white, floppy, noodle, much to his confusion. Jack then tied to make a paper snowflake only to have it become a spider, he was in shock as how that happened. Garfield took a knife then cut open a teddy bear then examined the stuffing. Jack took an ornament then crushed it into boiling water as it glowed.

Jack said "Interesting reaction."

Garfield asked "But what does it mean?"

Sally and Pomni were making a care package for the two. Then placed the bottle in the basket then used the sewing machine to make a line, Sally opened the window then lowered the basket. The two were nervous then smiled as they jumped down, the band flinched with a sound of a thud. The two girls looked up to see they did it. They sewed themselves up. Then walked to the two's house as the band played.

Dr. Finkelstein said looking around "You can come out now if you two promise to behave. Sally. Pomni. Oooh! Gone again!"

He smashed the lantern as his lip twitched. Jack and Garfield were writing on a chalkboard on Christmas works. Then they heard something hit the window. Jack opened the window then they saw the girls. They waved then Garfield took the basket, Jack took the bottle then opened it to show a butterfly. They were about to wave at the girls again but the girls were gone. They were confused, Jack closed the window. Sally and Pomni went out the gate, happy that they looked at them, then Sally picked a flower to have it show a Christmas tree then it burned meaning something bad is going to happen.
