(3rd person POV)

Lock and Shock were fighting over the candy again while Barrel was rocking back and forth, licking his never ending lollipop. "That's my candy!" Shock yelled, punching Lock in the gut. "No it's mine!" Lock retorted smugly, elbowing her in the cheek. "Barrel! Who's candy is it?!" Shock pointed at the youngest. "It's mine!" Barrel said smiling. Shock and Lock glared at him and started whaling on him, completely forgetting the candy. Suddenly, Lock's pet snake Venom came in and took the candy away, hissing happily. "GET THAT SNAKE!!" They all yelled chasing the poor, hungry snake around the surprisingly large tree-house interior. They all tripped over each other, in a angry heap. "MY LOLLIPOP!" Barrel cried, looking around for it. He found it under their bed(s) and started licking it again. "Found it!" He yelled happily, unable to contain his excitement. "Bird Brain!" "No Chin!" "Ya Wanna Go Mate!" "Come At Me Bro!" Barrel frowned and trudged out the room as the other two fought 'to the death'. Barrel was upset his siblings didn't acknowledge his feelings, he just wanted approval. Ever since Oogie died he had no one who showed him any sort of love, he knew Lock and Shock loved him but they never showed it. He sat on a branch outside, listening to their fight which he was pretty sure all of Halloween Town could hear. He gasped as he saw Jack and the Mayor stalking towards the tree-house, quickly warning the others. "Alright you brats get down here!" The Mayor shouted smugly. The trio walked out heads high until they saw Jack glaring, that caused their heads to fall. "C-can we help you?" Barrel stuttered out hoping they weren't in trouble. "We are here to 'discuss' your recent prank on the winged demon child..." Jack sighed, he hated telling them off. They were only kids, they didn't know better. "She deserved it!" Lock cried, hoping that that one sentence would win them the argument. "Yea she tried to steal Barrel's lollipop!" Shock yelled in defence. Barrel nearly cried at the memory. "That doesn't give you the right to glue her wings together!" Jack yelled back, trying to reason with them. "IT DOESN'T?!" They yelled in unison. "NO!" The Mayor spoke up, obviously distressed from being around the boogie boys for so long. The three kids spoke quietly together before turning back to them. " We don't apologise!" Shock cackled, Barrel and Lock closely following with maniacal laughter. They all run in different in directions, hoping to lose Jack because they knew the Mayor couldn't walk very fast, much let alone run. Jack sighed and followed one of the troublesome trio, arriving at a maze of thorns. "Come out Shock!" Jack shouted effortlessly. In reply all he got was laughter, sounding as if it came from all around him, which it probably did. Jack stomped into the maze and started looked for the eldest trick-or-treater. "I'm already behind schedule. I better be quick, hopefully they won't hurt themselves..." Jack mumbled, turning in random directions.
