One cold, dark night, exactly 9:00 PM on Christmas Eve, Sprx, Nova, Otto, and the rest of the team were up, watching none other than the Polar Express. Otto, earlier, had found the movie, upon his choice of browsing channels on a TV he had gotten last Christmas.

Now, being Otto and loving the movie, insisted on the team watching with him, and soon they reluctantly agreed.

Once they were settled, Otto turned on the TV and the movie was just starting…

It was later that night when something mysterious happened, something that would change the way the Monkey Team would see the story forever… non other than the Polar Express stopping just outside the Super Robot. They had never suspected that just watching the movie would lead to such a large, and strange, event.

And, let's go back in time, now that you know.

"Otto, why? It is late, and we all need rest." Gibson argued, rubbing his eyes sleepily.

Otto shook his head. "Come on… you all love that movie!"

Nova leaned forward. "You love that movie."

Sprx, deciding it was vital they kept him from whining all night, said: "Alright. But just once for the rest of eternity."

"Okay!" Otto cheered happily, running out of the room.

Nova glared at Sprx. "Why did you do that?"

Sprx just sighed, grabbed his pillow, and walked out, following a perky green simian.

Antauri followed second, trying to remember details on the movie.

Gibson, sleepy, followed with his pillow also and flopped onto the ground, snoring.

Chiro and Jinmay sighed also, heading in the other direction to grab popcorn.

"I won't go… good luck." Nova muttered, heading back to her room.

It was in the middle of the movie when Nova headed down to watch, deciding it was better than nothing.

She glanced around at her teammates, all glancing at the TV with interest.

Antauri murmured, "Well, that was unfortunate."

Sprx nodded in agreement, blindly stealing popcorn from Chiro's bowl. Chiro didn't mind. He was on a restroom break… in other words, he didn't even know.

Nova took a little from Jinmay's bowl, every once in a while also asking questions, commenting, and taking the occasional bathroom breaks and nap.

At the end of the movie, Nova gratefully turned off the TV. Everyone decided to sleep, heading back to their rooms, and cuddling up in the warm blankets and comforters.

At Midnight…
