Jack Skellington X Child!Reader

Chapter 12

You watched as there was a small sign titled 'XMAS' hung up over the word 'Halloween', so instead it said 'Days to XMAS'. The countdown clock ticked to 35, meaning another day had passed. The large clock had all of the months in the year on it as well.

As you took the reminder of time into thought, couldn't help but wonder if the Agent lady was still-if at all-looking for you, but you quickly dismissed the thought and went back to working. What really mattered now was getting your work done for Jack. Surprisingly, the sewing machine's foot-petal worked all on its own, so you didn't have to worry about being too small to operate the machine.

Your station was a small spot by the fountain, you had a mannequin ready to be used, and Jack's picture in the Santa outfit hanging behind you. You had gotten Jack's measurements last night even though it was tricky due to his inhuman height, and once you'd gotten all the materials you needed you went to work by morning.

This time...

"The song of the day." You joked to yourself, despite all of the thoughts and concerns swirling through your head.

This time...

A few ghosts flew out from the well nearby holding supplies.

Making Christmas

The tallest musician from the trio was pushing along a silver and square-like wheelbarrow. It had bones for handles and was full of Jack-o-Lanterns.

Making Christmas

The mayor was driving along in the snowmobile Jack had 'borrowed' from Christmas town nearly two months ago. It was decorated with a wreath on the front and was trailing a small, red, sled-like cart behind it. He looked as excited as everyone else did, he had his happy face on and everything.

Making Christmas is so fine

Some of the other citizens were setting down wooden planks for the mayor to advance on; There was the black, one-eyed creature, the zombie child's mother, the clown, the one with the axe in his head, and the zombie father.

It's ours this time and won't the children be surprised?

It's ours this time

The zombie child and the one-eyed mummy were both 'working' at one table, the zombie child was smashing a toy car with a mallet and the mummy beheaded a ballerina doll with a mini guillotine.

There were two witches stirring something in a cauldron, then out of nowhere the sea monster emerged from the liquid and joined the two in their part of the song.

Time to give them something fun

they'll talk about for years to come

The mayor sung again as well, but was swept away by the snowmobile that was now being driven by the zombie kid with the one-eyed mummy in the back cart.

Let's have a cheer from everyone

The devil, too, shared his voice in the song.

It's time to party

The vampire brothers were painting a vicious looking duck toy, there were holes with red paint to resemble blood painted in them and the duck actually sung with them as they painted its eyes.
