Roll them Bones

Crawling Fears

Another chapter!!! I got bored so this story is my main focus right now. I found the pic very funny.^^^^

****

"Welcome to Auradon Prep! I am Hallow Skellington." I said as I held out my hand to the first boy.

"Thanks, I am Shadow Boogie. It is a pleasure to meet you." He said as he took my hand.

I felt something crawl across my hand as I realized who he is. I looked down and he had bugs coming out of his sleeves, crawling onto my hand, and I fell back screaming. I could hear everyone laughing around me. I quickly got up and bolted out of the crowd.

I am terrified of bugs. I freak whenever I see one and I was lucky that I didn't faint in front of everyone.

The Prince of Halloween is a Scaredy Cat.

I ran all the way deep into the forest so no one could hear me cry.

"Aw, the pumpkin is all scared." I froze when I heard the voice behind me.

There is one person in school that calls me the pumpkin, Chad Charming. We have been enemies since we were little. He is one of the main reasons that I have to wear the skin cloth.

"Go Away Chad, I don't want to play any of your games now."

"Too late, I have a game for you already set up."

Before I had a chance to ask, I felt something hit me and then darkness.

**Harry Hook's POV**

"Why did you do that? We are supposed to pretend to be nice. It is harder to get the trust we need to complete our plan." I asked Shadow before thinking something else. 'Why did no one help the poor kid? They just laughed.'

"I just felt like it. The only reason that his father is not on the isle is because his father chickened out of his own plan. Besides, I think it still helped earn the students' trust."

As everyone walked away from the limo, I decided to follow where that kid ran off to. A small dog ran past me sniffing at the ground.

"What are you searching for?"

I did not expect an answer.

"Blond prince smelled like my favorite bone, so I am looking for it."

I realized that this was the dog that Mal used to trick us. I followed him deep into the forest into a small clearing.

Something white shot out of the ground and both of us let out a scream. If that dog ever blabs about me screaming, I will murder and then eat it. My heart was still racing when I realized it was a skeleton hand.

The dog walked up to the hand and started sniffing at it. I jumped when he got smacked on the nose.

'How is there a skeleton at school?' I thought and then it hit me. 'Skeleton? Skellington! That one kid is buried alive!'

I quickly dove down and started digging around the hand. I stopped after a while and did something that I have never done before. Put down my hook and used both hands. The dog started helping and then it was easier when we freed the other hand.

We managed to get Hollow out and I noticed that his arm was bone up to his elbow.

"Thanks for saving me." He was laying on his back next to the hole. "I would have missed Christmas if I had to unbury myself again."

"Can I have a finger for saving you?" The dog asked him.

"Go away Dude, I am not a chew toy." The dog ran away. "My name is Hollow. What's yours?"

"Harry Hook." I told him as I picked up the hook.

**Back to Hollow's POV**

My arm was killing me. This is one of the days that I hate the magic in the skin cloth. Normally, I forgive and forget when Chad torments me. But this time I am mad for once. No one messes with me on my favorite holidays.

Harry followed behind me as I stormed up to the school. I found Chad talking to Fairy Godmother. I walked right up to him and punched him with the hand that still had cloth on it.

"That was for burying me and leaving me for dead."

"Now, now, Hollow. There is no reason for violence at this school. You cannot point fingers without physical proof." Fairy Godmother said while helping Chad up. "Cover up that hand. It is indecent to have it exposed."

"I can't cover it up. Someone ripped the fabric off and it hurts."

"I will fix it when I get back. This should stop the pain." She poked the fabric and the pain stopped.

Chad walked away and I saw Harry watching him.

"Is he going to get punished for attacking Hallow?" He asked even though he sounded bored.

"Oh they were just playing. Hallow tends to exaggerate things. I am sure that it was nothing bad." She responded and my jaw dropped. "I will be back in three weeks and until then, wear gloves."

She walked away as I picked up my jawbone and I was fuming on the inside. I turned my heel and walked to my room to take a bath. Harry followed behind me and I figured out why when I saw the second name on the door.

Another chapter done! Chad and Hallow have a past that will play an important role.

Ask me any questions and I will try to answer them!

Thank you all for reading!!!
