Well, it’s about time. You know, when I started this contest, I really stressed the importance of no delays. So I blame the judges.
. . . I’m just kidding, this is my fault
But on a serious note, I’m very sorry for the huge delay. Schools been taking up a lot of my time the last two weeks, and I haven’t had much time outside of school to get in more work on here. I’ve simply had too much going on. That being said, I may not be as active on the forums as I used to be, but I’m not permanently leaving
But enough of that. On with the results! We had some fantastic entries, but here are this year’s victorious stories, made by their victorious authors! Judge feedback and credits will be added soon!
Judging the Writing Contest: the marvelous @TherMasterStitch , the wonderful @Champion_David , the talented @KayIa , and the fantastic @Card_Brigade !
“ Lumeire, light those candles up! ”
“ Peter Pan, stop tinkering with the garland and put them up there! ”
“ Stop slacking around Ducky and Bunny, and get to work! ”
These orders were commanded by Woody, who was clapping his hands demandingly to prompt the Heroes to work hard. Everyone in the Heroquarters are preparing a vivacious party to celebrate Halloween, and a clatter of footsteps exploded in the massive building. Colors of autumn pumpkins, black bats, green slime, and vibrant poison, animated the Heroquarters. Speaking of poison, the villains are strangely absent from the party.
Carpets glowed a bright mahogany, and a skull rolled across them as Goofy looked away from the sight of it. Mickey began to pace in a hurry to figure out where the noise is coming from and escaping the attraction as soon as possible. Beyond the carpet was an endless hallway and knowing that it would be fatiguing to continue walking down the hallway, the two decided to stop by a wooden door. Suddenly, ink began to ooze below the door as it suffused through Mickey and Goofy’s shoes. Wading to the door knob, the mouse twisted it.
“ Hello mortal strangers! ”
Mickey nodded as Oswald pumped his fist in the air, “ My spotlight has been regained once again! But you could have said that in the first place. ”.Well, we had to make this story longer to go through your regret. ”Our first performer will star- “, Goofy announced behind them as he was suddenly interrupted by a chainsaw revving, “ Negaduck and the villains’ time to party! ”. “ You’re ruining it, shortie! ”, Hades’ voice rang through the curtains. Mickey and Oswald looked at each other with wide eyes.
Here comes another party crasher.
Judge Discussion
TherMasterStitch: "Good detail and imagery, liked that there were lots of characters not in the game like Oswald and the Hitchhiking Ghosts. Sometimes it wasn’t clear who was speaking in the dialogue, and some parts became a bit slow.
Card_Brigade: Great introduction, you had my attention right away; it was like I really had stumbled onto a party in the middle of its “setting up” stage. The dialogue is definitely a great feature here, in addition to the setting, descriptions, and action. While I wasn’t too keen on Little Miss Fang, I did like how you came up with an original villain for the story, especially with the twist/reimagining of Little Miss Muffet.
Champion David: Love the addition of Oswald, but I have not seen him in many movies, but I still felt like you did not capture his personality correctly. I don’t care for Woody being so demanding, I think that role could have better been played by someone who holds more authority. The whole Halloween party turned Horror was amazing, but I do not like what I saw on google about this spider, and there is no explanation as to how it got in the city or anything.
With an hour left before the big party, Olaf had begun putting up his homemade decorations with Rex. Ghosts made from tissues were strung along the walls, cotton-ball cobwebs laced the corners, and poles dressed as scarecrows were placed next to the pumpkins at the gates to greet the guests. “Everything looks perfect, don’t you think Rex?” Asked Olaf, beaming. “Well… to be honest… I don’t know if the guests will find it all that scary. Trust me, I know a thing or two about not being scary.” Rex tried to explain. Olaf worriedly looked around the gates, trying to find something he could do to make the castle look scarier. “I know!” He cried. “I’ll carve the pumpkins! I’ve never done it before, but how hard can it be?” “I know what I can do too! I think I’ll add some colouring to my punch. I’ll make it deep red, like blood! Spooky, right?” Rex asked. Olaf simply said, “I don’t have blood. Or veins,” which Rex accepted as the signal to make his way to the kitchen. Olaf followed, grabbed the biggest knife he could find (much to Rex’s dismay), and wandered back outside to carve the pumpkins.
When the party was ending, everyone made their way out the gates, except for Rex, who stayed behind with Olaf. They both walked up to Elsa and Anna. “Elsa, Anna… I’m so sorry we ruined the party. I thought we could do it but we just weren’t scary. Instead, we ruined everything.” Olaf said sorrowfully. Rex lowered his head. “Are you kidding? You two did an amazing job!” Elsa exclaimed. “I don’t think anyone’s ever heard such a high-pitched scream.” Anna laughed. “Oh right, tell Moana we’re sorry about that.” Rex said. “No, I meant Gaston,” Anna said, giggling. At that, all four of them started to laugh. “I can count on you two to do the same next year, right?” Elsa asked. Olaf did nothing more than turn to Rex and say, “I told you we’d be great decorators!”

One night in the City, Mickey Mouse and Jack Skellington are planning what to do for this year’s Halloween Spectacular.
Jack Skellington: This year’s Halloween will sure to make people scream!
Mickey Mouse: Ha ha, it sure will, especially with the attractions at the Midway. It will make it fun and scary no matter what.
Jack Skellington: What where we thinking of calling the party again?
Mickey Mouse: Well uh…Mickey try’s to think of a name until it hits him.
After Maleficent confirming the deal for the Halloween party with Mickey and Jack, she secretly rounds up all the villains to have a confrontation for the big night. They hide where no one would find them but they must think quick before anyone realizes that none of the villains are to be seen.
Hades: Alright Maleficent what’s the big deals, I could be making deals with chumps out their right now why have us all here now.
Scar: I side with the flame head, why have us all here?
The villains start to begin an uproar when Maleficent shouts out…
Maleficent: Quiet all of you! I have a plan to control this City and have their little heroes taken down with them once those Creeps are out of our hairs!
Jafar: We’re listening.
Maleficent: Noooooooooooooooooo…
After everything is settled down and Maleficent was defeated, the ZPD comes in to take away her and all the other villains always as well. Everyone cheers for the victory against the villains! Jack feels like he must make an apology though.
Jack Skellington: I’m sorry everyone for having the villains do this to all of you, I understand if you don’t want to attend the party anymore.
Everyone appreciates the apology.
Stitch: Ohana means family, nobody gets left behind!
Mickey Mouse: Ha Ha, that’s right! What do we say we continue this party!
Everyone cheers to that and agrees to continue the party until it reaches midnight because its Halloween night! Once the party began again, everyone had fun and Mickey Mouse and Jack Skellington together threw the best Halloween party ever in the City!
Jack Skellington: Happy Halloween!
The End!
