Alternate universe. I was playing Little Inferno, then it struck me when my friend said I was scaring him: Oh my pork! What if CLAUS got ahold of Little Inferno?! My friend promptly left the room. This is for you, FilteredApophis of Wattpad.
"Mwahahahaha! Burn! Burn!"
The match lit the top of the oil tanker on fire, and soon scalding hot oil spilled onto the rabbit, bear, lost pirate and other assorted beings. Each one ignited and soon the scene was one big fiery, flamey wreck.
Things like this happened for hours on end. Random objects being placed within the confines of a large, brick cell and being eaten by the flames of a merciless fire-wielder.
The fire-wielder got a letter saying never to burn an alarm clock and a packet of seeds together. After burning the letter, the fire-wielder brought out an alarm clock and a packet of seeds.
Both objects were ignited at once. The packet shriveled to ashes and the alarm clock went off as the spilled seeds started blooming into flowers, only to shrivel up and burn as the alarm clock melted with a dying screech.
The fire-wielder chuckled as he got out an assortment of plush animals; mainly pink rabbits, but also a teddy bear and a raccoon doll whose label read, "May contain rabies."
All the toys went into the Little Inferno fireplace and the fire-wielder lit them, giggling madly to himself as he picked up the bear's flaming body and watched it turn to stuffing as one by one, the body parts separated from the head.
"Claus? What are you playing?"
Claus jumped in the chair and pressed the escape button, closing down his new game, "Little Inferno."
"Lu-Lucas! Don't scare me like that!" Claus stammered.
"But it's midnight. Mom said to be in bed by nine."
Claus sighed, "Aah, you got me. Don't tell her, okay?" Claus dejectedly got up and followed Lucas to their shared bedroom.
"But really, what was the game? It sounded like fun," Lucas pandiculated as he sat on his side of the bed, the left side, if one was looking from the foot.
"Not anything you'd enjoy, but it's called Little Inferno. Basically, you buy then burn things. The more weird burn combinations you get, the more catalogs open up for sale and the more stuff you can burn. It's really, really awesome, but it has some creepy stuff you can burn, too," Claus yawned as he curled under the covers, "'Night, Luke."
"Good night, Santa," Lucas coughed as he pulled the blankets over himself.
Claus poked Lucas in the back. "I told you not to call me that."
"But you were just playing a game that had a chimney in it!" Lucas snickered.
"Fine, you win. Maybe I'll let you try tomorrow."
"What if Lighter and Fuel found out?"
Claus laughed mentally. "Eep."
