'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through her Temple

Not a thing was moving, not even a rolling pencil;

The wards were hung on the outer posts,

In hope that no demon would break them like toast. The tantei were nestled all snug in their bunks

(Except for the two who were partying drunks);

And KoEnma in his nightshirt, and Botan in her lace,

Had just settled down for a neat face to face... When out on the lawn there arose such a racket,

That we leapt from our beds, pulling on pant and jacket.

Away to the porch we all shot like a rei gun,

We pushed open the doors and yelled loudly "Die Evil's son!" The shot gun, which flashed through the den,

Gave a light to see the objects within.

When, what on the rafters, our eyes should behold,

Not a weird kind of demon, but some guy who looked old. But the glint in his eyes was so funny and it and then,

We knew in a moment it had to be Harlequin.

His smile grew much larger as closer he came.

Then he jumped to the floor and addressed us by name: "It's Yu-kun, It's Hiei, It's Kurama and look!

It's Genkai, And Kazuma the genetic fluke!

To the top of the couch, to the rafters in the hall!

Now float away! Float away! Float away all!" As leaves in the autumn are whisked off the street,

So the floor of the den came away from our feet,

And up to the ceiling, our bodies they flew,

As the leader called out, "What the Hell is this, you?!" The prankster just laughed and expanded his grin,

And, sprinkled confetti, he vanished again.

As we took in our plight, and were looking around,

The spell was removed, and we crashed to the ground. Then Quin, dressed in fur from his head to his toe,

Appeared once again, to continue the show.

"That's enough!" cried the Kami, "You'll stop this at once!"

And Genkai said, "Hiei, take aim at this dunce!" "I'm deeply offended, you two!" replied Harley Q,

"I just wanted to celebrate this pretty Christmas with you."

As we scoffed at his words, he produced a large sack.

He dumped out the contents and took a step back. "I've brought gifts," he said, "just to show I'm sincere.

There's something delightful for everyone here."

He sat on the floor, and dug into his pile,

And handed out gifts with his most charming smile: "For Genkai, there's no need to explain.

Here is some Tylenol for all of your training pain.

For Hiei I've some mints, as his breath's not too great,

And for Yu-kun, his own inflatable date." For Shuichi H, some hormones, and a bit o' Clearasil-plus;

For Yukina, a joke book, For Kurama a truss.

For Botan, there's sleek lingerie,

And for KoEnma, the thrill of just seeing her that way." And he sprang to his feet with that grin on his face And, throwing confetti, disappeared into space.

But we heard him exclaim as he dwindled from sight,

"Merry Christmas to all, and to all some good fights!"

I got the idea for this from a Star Trek thing. To find out who the Harlequin is read the fic the Harlequin. It is SO funny!!! ^_^ Oh! Disclaimers for all my stories: I own nothing but: Karanue, Michelle, Kaede, and AndĂșnĂ«.
