Spirit of the Season

A/N This is a Shrek christmas fic but it's also a yaoi/shojo fic but nothing gross, just cute stuff. This is also for Inyunaruto365 who is precious to me. Enjoy!

It was December in Far, Far Away and everybody in the kingdom were getting ready for the holiday season.

Except for a certain young King.

Artie was feeling miserable and depressed.

Lillian didn't understand why her nephew was feeling this way.

He felt lonely as he went for a walk in the forest.

Snow was falling everywhere as his shoes crunched in the snow.

He then heard somebody moan.

It was Snowgre.

He was wounded and lying there.

"Snowg can you hear me?

Snowg?" he said softly.

He was scared as he picked the ogre teen up and went back to the castle.

"I wonder what happened to you?

I hope I can help you." He thought as he entered his room.

He and Snowgre were more than friends but kept their true feelings secret from Shrek and the others because they'd freak.

There were massive wounds over Snowgre's light artic skin and bruises over his snow white fur.

"Artie?" the young king heard Lillian call.

"I'll be right back, okay Snowg?" he whispered.

Snowgre nodded slowly.

A small tear was in his emerald eyes.

Meanwhile Fiona was with the other princesses but she was with Snow.

They too were more than friends too.

But Snow was alone while Fiona had friends and family.

"What's wrong Snowdrop?

Why don't you want me to leave?" Fiona asked as she stroked Snow's long black hair.

"I-It's just I'm… alone at this time of year.

I have no other family besides you." She replied to her.

Fiona thought of that as she returned to the swamp.

The triplets were playing in the snow and were now nine years old.

They were having a snowball war.

Puss cackled at the fury.

But somebody was watching them.

She wanted revenge on Fiona for losing to her as a kid and as an adult.

She was miserable this time of year without Charming.

Artie smiled as Snowgre saw him return after waking up.

"Hey Sno=Sno you're awake!

I was scared finding you there in the snow.

What happened?" he said putting a damp cloth to Snowgre's eye.

"It was some bald girl.

She was angry at me for some reason, I don't know why.

My whole body hurts especially my arm where she hurt it with an arrow." he told him crying softly.

It broke Artie's heart to see his boyfriend in this much pain before the festive season began.

"Ssh..... it'll be okay.

Does Shrek know you're out here all alone?" Artie replied.

Snowgre shook his head.

"N-No he doesn't.

I was miserable and had to take a walk." he answered.

He then felt safe in Artie's arms.

He hoped he and the others could help......

But he had a feeling he knew who the attacker was.......
