Cobwebs Tend to Begin on Halloween

I don't own anything but my OC's.

Prologue

You walk along the winding pathway, looking around you. There are tall trees everywhere, taller then any other tree you've ever seen. The tops of these giants are covered by fog. You walk into the middle of a circle of trees, all with oddly coloured bark. Each one of the trees have different pictures on them, carved into the wood.

You are startled by a flock of scared crows, who fly off into the distance. You turn back to the trees and examine them.

You hear a voice. It is familiar, but you cannot think of the owner to the voice. It does distract you slightly, but you still keep your eyes on the trees.

T'was a long time ago, though longer now, it may seem,

For in the town of Halloween,

The first door has a red present on it, decorated with stars and it makes you think of fireworks.

The next, has a dark red heart on it and it makes you think of love and affection.

There lived an evil, bug-filled sack,

Who had a well-known rivalry with Pumpkin King Jack,

The next, has a forest green shamrock on it, and you think of little green men with ginger beards.

The one after that is a large egg, decorated with pink, white, yellow and blue and makes you think of rabbits and chocolate.

Now, you've probably wondered where this series came from,

If you haven't, I'd say that it's time you begun,

Now, it didn't start out with Jack finding his future son and our future prince,

The one after that is a carving of a turkey, and it makes you think of a certain sorcerer's love of food.

The next one, is one you recognize straight away. It is the door a certain king used to enter the land of winter, presents and joy.

This was just the beginning of a plan,

That would take Jack down and place the town in Oogie's hand,

But it was only after Oogie got rid of his Jack-remake,

That he realized that that was his one, big mistake…

And the next, is the door to the land where all things scary are. It is the door to the land, where Maverick, Jack and Cobweb lives. Suddenly, the door is thrown open and a gust of wind pulls you in. You hear the door slam shut behind you.

You fall into the darkness, which pulls you into a brand new story…

Author's note:

Hola, amigos! I'm back! Who missed me? *Cricket chirps* Oh, thanks guys! Well, technically, I was back on Saturday, but I needed to rest and plan before I began writing again.

Wow, I find an Internet Café in Spain and go onto FanFiction, and what do I find? Lots of reviews. Thanks, guys!

So, what do I give you in return? The first Cobwebs Series Special Story! Cobwebs Tend to Begin on Halloween! If you can't tell by the rhyme, it's a prequel to Cobwebs Tend to Grow on Halloween. In this story, you'll find out what happened to Cobweb before he was found by Jack. Exciting, no?

You'll also be pleased to know that I took a writing pad with me on holiday, which is full of The Two Flames, plans for the Special Stories and a lovely one-shot you might enjoy! *Thumbs up* This is how kind I was to you all.

In other news, Spain was fun! Went to a water park, hung out at the pool, built sand castles on the beach and, basically, lazed about all day, every day!

The rhyme is to the one on Nightmare Revisited, read by the wonderful Danny Elfman!

So, this is where our story begins. Find out what happens next time…

Oh, and p.s.: Maverick's back too.

Mav: *Waves* Hi, guys!
