It all starts on Christmas Eve, in Crisis City, where the heroes are awaiting Santa Claus' appearance. In Blaze's castle, the kids are decorating the fire place with streamers and hanging up the stockings. As of now, Blaze is standing with a list, telling the others where certain decorations should be. Not only that, but certain tasks to do. One by one, the tasks are quickly checked off… as they began to call It a night.
"You all did your jobs?" Blaze asked the group.
"Well… I got the ribbons on and hung the stockings. I don't know what Shadow and Marine were supposed to do" Gardon replied.
"I got your sleeping bags" Shadow scoffed.
"I think Marine has the cookies and milk job" Gardon said.
Just then, Marine came out of a kitchen with a plate of sugar cookies and a glass of egg nog and tow. Blaze looks at the glass with an annoyed look in her eyes as Marine put the plate and glass on the table.
"Um… what is THAT?" Blaze asked with a scoff.
"It's milk! You said to bring it" Marine giggled.
"Ummm NOO THAT'S EGG NOG! NOT MILK!" Blaze yelled.
"Holy, doly! I shall go get a replacement" Gardon said hesitantly as he ran to the kitchen.
"Umm… tell me why Silver doesn't have to do anything?" Shadow asked.
"I want my Silver to be well relaxed" Blaze said in a show-offish tone.
"Don't be gobsmacked by that Shadow! She always favors Silver" Marine said in a playful tone.
"Where is Silver anyway"? Shadow asked.
"Outside" Blaze answered. "Tell him to come in… I made him some soup"
Shadow ran outside to get away from the overly warm house… and Blaze. As he shut the door behind him, he noticed Silver sitting in a lounge chair watching the city and the people carry on with excitement. Shadow pulled up a chair and began to unfold it.
"Hey Silver, are you alright" Shadow asked as he was unfolding the lounge chair.
"Better than always, Shads. I'm just enjoying my time outside." Silver replied with a smile.
Shadow finally unfolded the lounge chair and placed it next to Silver's so he can sit in it.
"We finished the decorations. Except Blaze was annoying"
"Pfff as always, Shads… as always. I bet they look great"
"Ehh.. I can care less about decorating. I'm just glad we don't have to fight crime"
"Yeah! No (imitating Eggman Nega) I HATE THAT HEDGEHAWWWG! (/imitating Eggman Nega) for a day"
"Now that's classic!" Shadow said bursting in laugher.
The boys kept laughing hysterically at Silver's imitation of Eggman Nega as they almost fell out of their chairs. As they cooled off, they fixed themselves on the chairs.
"Maybe, one day… there will be snow this Christmas" Silver said as he looked at the gray sky.
"It has never snowed in Crisis City?" Shadow asked surprisingly.
From what I heard, the last time it snowed in Crisis City was 50 years ago actually. You can't really say 'never'. I'd love for it to snow though"
"Hopefully it will, Silver"
"I hope so. I'd like to be able to play in the snow and make snowmen and do other things kids do"
"So… Silver, what did you wish for Santa to get you for Christmas?"
"Just for snow to finally come to Crisis City and for everyone to have a smile on their face. Meaning… no drama.
"I'm sure everyone is going to have a smile on their face, Silver. You have that effect on people"
"Thanks, Shads. Hey what did you ask for?"
"I asked for a new motorcycle… with a 6 horsepower engine. Also a laser gun"
"That's cool Shads. Hey, should we go in?"
"Oh yeah! Blaze said she made something for you! Ready?"
"Yeah… I'm ready"
Silver and Shadow both got up from the lounge chairs and folded them back up. They put them up against the wall as they went inside the house.
