Author's note: After reading the "'Tis the Season" chapter of FFVII fanfic author Desha's story "Taking Care of Reno Remastered" story, I've decided to write and post my first Sailor Moon Christmas Special story set after "Sailor Moon's Royal Quest" story as seen in my "Sailor Moon Continuum" story, and shortly before the events of "Sailor Moon's Ice Age Adventure" story, again, within the Continuum.

This is based on one of my favorite Christmas specials, "Shrek the Halls".

I own no rights to Sailor Moon, Shrek, Cardcaptor Sakura or Pokemon. The only thing I do own, though, is Lusie(Chibiusi)/Future Mini Moon, who is my OC character and is Sailor Mini Moon's future daughter.


CHAPTER ONE.

TASHASAUROUS Presents...
A Sailor Moon, Shrek, Cardcaptors and Pokemon Crossover special...

SAILOR MOON THE HALLS.

Summer: 158 days left until the third Christmas of the Legendary Long Year-1998.

It was a nice and beautiful sunny day in the Kingdom of Duloc. In fact, it was so perfect, that for once the Sailor Team can actually enjoy themselves. It's been months since the incident with Prince Charming in Far Far Away, the incident with Rothbart, and at last two months since the birth of Shrek and Fiona's three triplet children-two little boys, one named Farkle, and the other named Fergus, and their sweet little girl, Felica, things have been quiet for our heroes. Now back in Duloc for a much needed break, before Serena's journey to the Johto region back on Earth which will be no later than very early after New Year's Day next year, everyone was looking forward for several months of nothing but relaxation.

In fact, even the usual contents with busy royalty life of Duloc wasn't much of an issue, so even Serena and Darien can take a break. Darien was reading a book while sitting on the bench, enjoying the sun, and Serena herself, the leader of the Sailor Team, current second ruler of Duloc, and future Queen, but still considering herself a normal citizen, was polishing her five Pokeballs containing her Pokemon currently with her, while the rest of her Pokemon were with Ash's Pokemon back in Pallet Town. She already double-checked her Moon Cards, and polished her Super Heart Compact Locket with the Silver Crystal.

"There. Sparklily and perfect." Serena said to herself as she sets down the last Pokeball containing her Bulbasaur down with the rest of her Pokeballs containing her Pikachu, Haunter, Squirtle, and Charizard. She then stretched her arms up, saying to herself, "Beautiful day."

Suddenly...

"~He sees you when you're sleepin', He knows when you're awake!~" Donkey appeared in front of Serena out of nowhere and sang...a christmas carol?

Startled at her friend's sudden appearence, Serena blinked, dumbfounded, "Donkey, what're you doing here? And why are you singing one of my favorite Christmas songs? Christmas isn't until December, and this is probably the third Christmas this year, considering it's the legendary long year."

"That's the thing, Serena!" Donkey said, in full Christmas spirits already. "I've already visited Shrek and told him to be good for Santa Claus! You know, there's only 159 days left until Christmas! So you'd better be good!"

Seeing how this was weird for someone to be excited over Christmas at this time of year, Serena muttered, "Uh, right. But Donkey, I've celebrated Christmas in America months ago during summer vacation. It's too early to think about it again right now. Besides, it's the Legendary Long Year."


Autumn: 83 days left until the third Christmas of the Legendary Long Year-1998.

Since the days were starting to get a bit colder, everyone was starting to cut up wood for wood fires to keep warm. Today Serena was visiting Shrek at the Swamp while the latter placed a log of wood onto a stump and was about to cut it in half with an axe as Serena was holding another log for more, when...

"~Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way!~"

"AHHHH!" Serena and Shrek both screamed out in fright as Donkey appeared out of nowhere and sang another christmas song. During the screams, Serena flinged the log behind her and it nearly a bird's nest up in the tree, while the mother bird squrked and screamed at the close call, before yelling out at the human in bird langauge, and Shrek flinged the axe behind him, where it landed and got stuck in the "Get Out" Ogre sign.

"DONKEY!" Serena and Shrek yelled, scolding their friend who wasn't dampered by their yell.

In fact, he was still in Christmas Spirits.

"There's only 83 days left for christmas," Donkey reminded...again, "Now you both go get your green and princess butts into gear, and go get yourselves some Marshmellows; because everybody knows, without marshmellows, and sweet tomatos, you're nothin'!"

Both of them groaned, and Serena told the donkey, "Good grief! It's STILL way too early to talk about this!"

"And I don't care about any of this nonsense." Shrek added.

"Now shoo!" Serena and Shrek both ordered.

Donkey walked away, saying, "Okay, okay, but don't say I told you so."


Winter: 2 days left until the third Christmas of the Legendary Long Year-1998.

Serena, Darien, Rini and Lusie were visiting the Shrek household, and while Serena decided to go outside for a little snowman making in the middle of early night, Shrek came out with a shovel to move some snow away from the door to avoid in getting snowed in. Just as he just began...

"~Dashing through the snow,~" Donkey popped out of the snow, startling Serena and Shrek who both then groaned. Donkey then jumped out, excitedly saying, "Oh man, it's finally here! Tormorrow it's Christmas Eve!"

"Yes, I know tomorrow it's Christmas Eve, and before you ask, yes, Darien, Rini, Lusie and I, and everyone at the castle got out decorations up, the Christmas Presents, and even opened up a Christmas Charity for everyone in Duloc and for those who need help the most." Serena signed, rubbing her temples, hoping that her saying this truthfully would get Donkey to shut up.

Too bad she forgot one simple thing; Shrek.

"So you got everything ready like Serena?" Donkey asked to the Ogre.

"No." Shrek replied.

In disbelief, Donkey asked Shrek about the tree, the presents, the pudding, ect, and each answer was a no, until finally, the ogre told him, "Donkey! Will you get it in your thick head? No one here gives a hoot about Christmas!" which even Serena blinked in surprise, and in shock.

In fact, her dismay grew as Fiona, Darien, and the children, two from two different futures, and three new generation of the year all came out, smiling at the snow falling.

"It's snowing!" Rini cried out happily.

"Yay! I love the snow!" Lusie cheered, laughing and twirling around, happily dancing around.

"Awesome, a white christmas." Darien thought, smiling.

Fiona agreed, holding all three of her and Shrek's babies in her arms, saying, "And it's our first one together as a family. Isn't this exciting!?" in a good christmas mood, and who can blame her? Most of her life was spend locked up, so she pretty spend her christmas either locked up in Far Far Away or up in the Tower before Shrek and Sailor Moon rescued her.

"Uh, oh yeah! How about that?" Shrek replied, though this was an act. He obviously never celebrated Christmas before, and, seeing how everyone else did, how was he supposed to know? But he didn't reveal this, as he didn't want to get into trouble.

"Um, Princess?" Donkey began to Fiona, "I think there's something Shrek needs to-Mmph!" he was then cut off by Serena who, realising that Shrek never celebrated a family christmas, and that she totally forgot about Shrek's family(except for the kids and Fiona), covered his mouth with her hands to shut him up.

"Donkey! You know better than to ruin Shrek's surprise for her!" Serena "scolded" at him, and Shrek was mentally thankful for Serena's support.

"Surprise? Oh, I love surprises! You're the best, Shrek." Fiona said, warmed up, and gently kissed her husband on the nose, before she lead everyone else inside the house, saying happily, "C'mon, let's get some cookies!" to which Rini and Lusie happily joined in, and Darien stayed behind a little.

"Aren't you coming, Serena?" Darien asked.

Serena, sweatdropping, replied with a fake laugh, "Oh, no, you go ahead, hun'. There's still one last minute special surprise I've gotta do, to help Shrek with his surprise for Fiona."

Blinking in confusion, Darien shrugged and he said, "Okay. Just be careful." and entered the house, closing the door behind him as Serena, Shrek and Donkey continued their fake smiles. But as soon as the door closed, their smiles dropped into a 'Uh-oh' expressions.

"Okay, you're both dead, you know that, right?" Donkey cautioned.

"Um, hold that thought." Shrek said, "I'll be right back."

"Uh, you know what, Shrek?" Serena added, "I'm coming with you."


Together, Serena and Shrek made a mad dash towards the nearest book store, as the one in Duloc had closed two hours ago, and made an epic and perilous journey, running down the path near the pine forest, climbing up dangerous rock mountains, running over the bridge, carefully walking on the log bridge over the gap of 1,000 drop, and faced the bliztering cold blizzards in the mountains until finally...

Ding, Ding, Ding.

Serena and Shrek both sighed in relief as they walked into the door of the book store, the lights was still own, the sign door was still open, as they had raced as fast as they could to Far Far Away.

"*Phew* Thank goodness. You're still open." Serena thanked the book clerk, who was a young girl, roughly about twenty years old and newish to her job.

"Uh, no, no, uh, we're closing now." The Lady Clerk replied, apologetically, attempting to politely push the two out, saying, "Merry Christmas."

"Wait, wait, wait!" Shrek said, pushing himself and Serena back in, going in a half-panic attack, as he checked out other books, "I need your help!"

Serena, who was looking for a "How to make Christmas" guide book or something along the lines, as she told the clerk, "I need help too! See, my friend here never celebrated a family christmas before, and I have no idea how to teach him to do that! Don't you have a "How to" books on Christmas or something?"

Seeing how the two needed help, the Lady clerk smiled happily, grabbing hold of Shrek's arm, saying, "Why didn't you say so? That's super!" pulling him up to the counter, with Serena following. "I know all about Christmas, and I've just got the book for you!"

She then pulled out a thick book and placed it onto the counter where it made a loud 'thump!', and read out it's title, "Christmas For Village Idiots." and she went through the steps with a incredious Shrek, and a dumbfounded Serena who thought, 'Too bad Earth doesn't have a 'Christmas for Dummies' book.' in her mind. Then again, the instructions were at least easy for her, and Serena was the klutz of the Sailor Team!

"Step one: decorate the house," the clerk went through the steps with the two, flipping the pages as she went, "Step two: stockings by the firewood. Step three: the Christmas feast! Mmmm!" and when she flipped to step four...

"What's that?" Shrek asked, seeing the Christmas tree, in confusion.

"Step four: Put up the Christmas Tree!"

"The three goes inside the house?" Shrek asked, in disbelief.

Serena and the Clerk just stared at him in an awkward pause. How little did Shrek actually knew about Christmas?

"Anyway," the clerk continued, ignoring the question, "Step five: the telling of the christmas story." and she babbled on how step works; family standing by the fire, telling the christmas story, ect. She closed the book and gave it to Shrek and Serena for free.

"Are you sure the book can...?" Serena whispered to the clerk as they made their way out of the door.

"Look, long story short; It's all right here. No problem!" The lady clerk said, pushing the two costumers out, and hid behind the door, asking, "I mean, how hard can it be?"

Her reason to hide behind Serena and Shrek was a good reason, because as soon as the two stepped out, several other people came racing all over the streets, all having panic attacks. One woman came over to the two, exclaiming in panic, "I didn't get the Eggnog!" before racing away. It was kind of a panic late costumer crisis, as people tried to get to other stores, but were too late as the stores closed up for the holidays. The people were babbling about the last minute things, such as an action figure for their son, and were running around like headless chickens.

"Marshmellows! Marshmellows!" One man cried out in dismay, "Sweet tomatos! I'm nothing without marshmellows!"

Serena and Shrek both had their eyes widened in dumbfounded disbelief at the scene happening before them. When Donkey once said people without marshmellows and sweet tomatos are nothing and everybody knew this, he wasn't kidding.

"Buh-bye!" The lady clerk behind them said, while flipping the sign from open to closed, and closed the door, having coped with this mini-crisis since she got her job, and wasn't surprised. "Have a super christmas!" she said at last, and Shrek sighed with a groan.

Serena groaned in her throat in dismay, as she thought to herself in her mind, 'Weird Christmas panic attacks.' forming a large sweatdrop on her head, her right eye slightly twitching.


Meanwhile, in the same streets, Team Rocket, who were going to celebrate their own christmas, came out of three different stores for the last minute christmas shopping, with their arms full of items in paper bags.

"Sheesh, even christmas shoppers on Earth aren't as crazy as these guys." Meowth thought to himself, with a quirked eyebrow as he came out of the store he was just in. People in the Fairy-Tale world was just as crazy and as late as people on Earth. He didn't even dare to think about the Christmas situations in the Pokemon World, or in the other worlds of the Kingdom Hearts universe.

He figured that Sora, Riku and Kairi's home world was very simple. King Mickey's, Donald and Goofy's world, however...he was too scared to think about that as well. Besides, the last he remembered seeing just Sora, Donald and Goofy was before Serena's Orange Island adventures, and King Mickey defeated him, Jessie and James back in Pallet Town after the Orange Islands. Riku, he had no idea. Kairi was still in Destiny Islands after Ansem's defeat by the hands of Sailor Moon and Sora.

"How could anyone not get these important things before Christmas Eve? This is unbelievable!" James thought to himself as he walked out the store he was just in, stunned at the stupidy of the Fairy-Tale world's humanity. Even Pokemon could do better than these guys.

"What's with all this 'Without Marshmellows and Sweet Tomatos I'm nothing' nonsense? That's not my idea of celebrating Christmas." Jessie thought to herself as she walked out of the store she was just in. Even in her early childhood, she's never seen or heard of anything like this, and she grew up in a small poor village before leaving to find a career and ended up joining Team Rocket instead, up until the Shadow Soul incident in America where she, James and Meowth first met Serena/Sailor Moon.

The three of them met in the middle, and stared at each other in confusion, all asking in unison, "You done already?"

"Wobbuffect!" Wobbuffect said, as he came out of his pokeball again.

Suddenly, before any of them could continue on, they heard a rumbling noise, coming from the streets further up, and turned to the same direction, and many villagers cam racing down in a stampede, heading straight towards them!

Hysterically and comically screaming in panic, Team Rocket took off in the opposite direction, heading out of town, with Meowth exclaiming to his companions, "Run for it! It's a stampede of crazy Christmas Shoppers!"

This is turning out to be an eventfall christmas indeed, and it wasn't even Christmas Eve just yet.


Very early next morning, back in the Swamp, Fiona was sleeping soundly, as were her children, for Darien, Rini and Lusie returned to the Castle in Duloc, and Serena was probably back as well, while Shrek must've been up all night...when a thump from the roof startled her awake. Seeing nothing wrong, the former Princess sighed, and, not seeing Shrek in bed, left the room, realising the noise was coming from the roof outside.

"Honey, is that you?" Fiona called out to Shrek, while careful not to awaken the children. She then heard screams...and not just coming from Shrek but also...Serena? Opening the door to look outside, Fiona jumped slight as Shrek and Serena came falling, and where both tangled up in...trimmings from the roof, hanging upside down.

"Oh! Hi, Fi'!" Serena greeted, awkwardly, "You're up early...AH!" before she and Shrek both fell and landed on the ground.

"Are you both okay?" Fiona asked, a bit worriedly.

"I'm alright." Shrek replied, before a large christmas decoration hit his head, but he was okay.

Serena sat up, rubbing her bottom, "Never better."

"What are you...?" Fiona walked outside to take a look, and was quite surprised at the sight of the house, realization dawned, and she asked, "Are you decorating?"

"Uh, yeah!" Serena replied as she and Shrek both stood up, continuing, "It was his idea." pointing at him with a sweatdrop, not wanting to tell Fiona the truth just yet.

"Surprise?" Shrek said, hopefully.

"Yes!" Fiona said, smiling, happily. So this was the surprise her husband had planned, she figured. It was a nice surprise too, and she loved it.

Shrek then placed...a toliet seat with a red Christmas ribbon on it in place like a traditional Christmas wreath, while he said, "Well, since this is our first Christmas together as a family, so I just wanted to make sure it was..." he cringed as the toilet seat fell, before he finished, "Perfect." as he and Serena went to stand next to Fiona.

"And since I was around, I've decided to help Shrek out with the decorating." Serena added, nervously rubbing the back of her head, though all she felt on the back of head was her winter gloves. "It's not the best decorating, but it's better than nothing, right?"

"Guys, I think it's beautiful." Fiona told them.

"It's possible." Shrek shrugged.

"It's resonable." Serena added.

"It's horrible!" Donkey exclaimed as he appeared out of nowhere again, looking at the decorations in disgust, startling his friends, much to Shrek and Serena's annoyances, and well, the decorating job wasn't the best, as Serena claimed. In fact, it was worse that than that; All of the decorations were piled up into a mess and cramped. Too much decorating statues more than anything else.

But at the moment, while Donkey was ranting on about the 'junk' and lecturing them how to put up ribbins, lights and ect, Serena cuts him off and she asked, "Donkey, what is it that you wanted today?"

"Oh come on, it's Christmas Eve!" Donkey said, for he had a belt on his back which hanged two sacks filled with Christmas cards, "And I've brought you guys a little something. And since you're here, Serena, I'll save you the trouble and give it to you instead of heading to the castle. Go ahead, take a couple each; I've brought plenty for everybody!"

Serena and Shrek both took a card each from the pouches, and blinked at the Cards were homemade; a christmas card with a picture of Donkey in a christmas hat and a Santa's beard in front of a fireplace, smiling, and the words, 'Merry Christmas' was written on it.

This brought a smile on Serena's face, and she said, "Aw, Donkey. That's so sweet. Thank you." for she loved the christmas cards. She took out another one to humor her friend and for she loved the cards.

Shrek on the other hand, while he somewhat liked the cards too, just simply said to his friend, "Well, thanks for stopping by for a brief visit, but as you can see, there's a lot of work to do." picking up a box full of decorations, and walked off, with Serena following him.

Once Shrek and Serena where out of earsdrop, Donkey muttered to Fiona, "Just like Shrek, waiting 'til the last minute. But don't you worry, Princess, for one thing I know that's Christmas. Now, Serena needs break, so Shrek's gonna want my help, he's gonna want my advice, and it's definately gonna want..."

"Actually," Fiona politely interrupts, stoping Donkey from following Shrek and Serena, "I think what Shrek and Serena both really want is a nice...Family Christmas."

"Oooh, a Family Christmas." Donkey thought, and, being, well, a donkey, a wrong idea and misunderstanding filled his head. But then again, by family, he knew that family wasn't just for blood relations or relatives, but friends as well.

"Yeah," Fiona answered, "It's the first one with the kids."

"Don't you say another word, Princess. I know exactly what you mean." Donkey winked, "I've got lots to do now, so I'd better get movin'!" and skipped happily away.

Fiona smiled and waved, "Thank you, Donkey. And Merry Christmas!"

"Merry Christmas!" Donkey replied back, as he went on his way, while singing at the same time.

While at the back, Serena and Shrek stood there, looking at the first step of the book they got yesterday.

"Donkey's right, it's Christmas Eve." Shrek whispered, "How am I gonna get this done in time?"

"We'll finish it just before Eight 'O' Clock tonight, Shrek. You'll see." Serena assured, before she and Shrek sensed Fiona coming, and hid the book away in Shrek's pockets.

Fiona smiled at them, saying, "This is gonna be the best Christmas ever, and we're going to do it together." mentally saying that she and the others will all pull together to decorate the rest of the house, pulling her husband and sister-in-law to get to work.


It didn't take long before the Orge family, Serena, Darien, Rini and Lusie who all joined in, to enter the woods to gather the 'Ogre' version of decorations, which seemed just as easy. With Serena and Shrek secretly following the book's steps, things were going smoothly. First they found red and white snakes which, with Fiona belching cold air and freezing them, they were bend to turn into snake versions of candy canes.

Next, with Lusie and Rini's help by placing decorative nets on frogs, the triplets blew them up into balloons to make...uh, whatever those other decorations bobbly things are. The group then found a good log to act as the Christmas Tree, with decorative tree ferns with fireflies on them to glow.

As Darien had brought a turkey from Earth(not a live one, but the ones that can be bought in the supermarket, mind you), with some gingerbread cookies shaped like Christmas trees and stars, with milk and such for himself, Serena, Rini and Lusie, Shrek and one of his babies found a nice large and big rat for their, Fiona and the other two babies dinner, all that was left was the christmas story.


Later that early evening, Serena, Darien and Shrek were just finishing up the decorations inside the house by placing their and everyone else's Christmas Stockings, or in Shrek's case, his, Fiona's, and the triplet's Christmas Underpants. But all in all, the Ogre family's way of decorating was surprisingly good, and Serena, Darien, Rini and Lusie liked it too.

"Everything looks so good!" Fiona said happily, "Oh, nice job, honey." she said to Shrek.

"Well, we all did it together." Serena shrugged. "Besides, it's nice to have a simple christmas for once. Last time was back on Earth a year ago. The second Christmas this year was at my uncle Stu's invention of Christmas Land and, well, most of us got snowed in. Long story short."

"And now, what would a perfect Christmas be without, a Christmas story." Shrek said, as he and Fiona placed their babies on the floor for them to listen their first christmas story. Rini and Lusie, who loved christmas stories, joined their cousins, while Serena and Darien joined Shrek and Fiona, all of them sitting close together as best as they could on Shrek's armchair.

Clearing his throat, (after memorizing the story from the book), Shrek began, "It was the night before Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring..." until...the sound of the door opening cuts him off, and he and everyone else looked up, as he asked, "What?"

"MERRY CHRISTMAS, SHREK!" Donkey exclaimed happily as he bursted in, wearing a wreath around his neck.

"What!?" Serena exclaimed, shocked that Donkey came over.

Apparently not just him, but Donkey brought the whole gang too! Donkey's children; Coco, Peanut, Bananas, Debbie and Scarlet(I think?) Wolfy, the three pigs, Gingy, Pinocchio, the three blind mice, and the rest of the Sailor Team; Amy, Raye, Lita, Mina, Sakura, Kero, Madision, Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Brock, May, Max, Dawn, Piplup, and Casey, who all brought their own Christmas decorations and food, enough for everyone for apparentlyl a Christmas family party!

Despite Shrek and Serena's protests, the others joined in none the less, as all of their friends gave their Christmas greetings, and began to place their things in order to make the place more festive.

"Uh, what a nice surprise." Fiona thought, a bit awkwardly.

"Yeah, I'll say." Darien thought, briefly having a Christmas tree accidenlty shoved in his face.

Puss, who was also invited, walked in, but just before took another step, he paused and froze, mentally horrified as he completely forgot about...the three little terrors who giggled at seeing their favorite 'kitty' and crawled over, ready to play with him. Rini, Lusie, Sakura, and Madision all giggled at the sight of Puss's dismay.

"I guess that babies are very happy to see you again, Puss." Sakura laughed, while she also felt sorry for the poor cat.

"You got that right." Madision agreed, while having her video camera, and began recording, adding, "But this is gonna be the best Christmas party ever! I think I'll call it, "The Sailor Team's Very First Christmas"!" causing Sakura to sweatdrop nervously and in embarrassment.

Kero floated over to Puss, and nudged him on the shoulder, saying, "Well, what are you waiting for? The kids are waiting."

Seeing how he wasn't going to get out of this, Puss took out his head, sighing in exasperation, "Okay..." slumping over in humilation and resigned to his fate, "I was holding the position."

Seconds later...Puss was shrieking(in cat langauge), trying to claw his way out on the floor, as he was hugged too tightly around the waist, pulled by his tail, and patted too hard on the head by the babies who were enjoying themselves. Forget humilation; this was torture!

"Okay! The table's all set, so feel free to attack any kind of meals you want!" Brock proclaimed as he and Lita pushed the table over, having his and Lita's christmas cooking on the table already. Brock and Lita had made many christmas traditional helpings, including an extra turkey, and they even made roast chicken with roast potatoes, roast lamb and pot-roast potatoes, with salad dishes, and for dessert, chocolate pudding with ice cream in a frozen container to prevent it from melting, cookies, and ect.

"~We Wish you a merry Christmas, We wish you a merry Christmas!~" Mina sang as she was wearing a Mrs. Claus dress and gloves with a santa's hat.

Donkey was the first to notice the Ogre version of the stockings and told him about this, calling it 'dirty laundry', while he smiled in approval as May, Raye and everyone else quickly placed their stockings as well. Serena cringed. Apparently they were all here to stay for the night.

"How can we warm up with this little bit of fire?" Donkey asked, noticing the fireplace and not the roast rat for the Ogres. He then called up through the chimminy, "Hey Baby, you there?"

Dragon, who was outside as she couldn't fit inside, blew a breath of fire down into the chimminy, and made the fireplace bigger to warm up the room, but to Shrek's dismay, burn't the rat so much that it practically turned into ash(eh, no pun intended) and disappeared into nothing! Well, so much for the Roast Rat.

As Pinocchio and Max were putting up their stocking, the former felt something smack onto his leg, and cried out, "Ow!" before realising that the blind mice, who didn't realise they were placing their stockings on his leg instead around the fireplace, he yelled at them, "Hey! Ow!"

"Did you hurt yourself when you fell out of the oven?" Gingy flirted with a Ginger-bread Christmas Angel which was lifeless, unlike him, but he couldn't help himself as he found her absolutely beautiful.

Serena and Shrek both continued to stand there, while a few things were breaking by accident by the others, but unfortunately, before they could say anything, Ash told them excitedly, "C'mon, everybody! Let's boogy! Music, please!"

And disco lights were turned on, and the entire room was filled with dancing by everyone who rocked with the song that was playing...except for Serena and Shrek who both backed away, until they made it outside and closed to door.

So much for a quiet family Christmas.


Back in Duloc, Team Rocket, who escaped from the mob yesterday, were sitting by the table in their quiet christmas celebration, with Jessie's and James' Pokemon joining them.

"Oh, one thing we did forget was the christmas dinner." Jessie moaned, and James sighed.

Meowth on the other hand, held up the ready made and cooked dinner on a tray, exclaiming happily, "You're in luck! Look what Meowth dragged in!" and placed the food on the tray; The roast Turkey, Roast Potatos, side spagetti with garlic bread, side dishes, and for dessert, gingerbread cookies and a chocolate cake decorated a little with a mistletoe. It was enough for ten people. Meowth took the fork and took the first bite after James cutted up the turkey and potatoes. "Now this is a good christmas."

Jessie then went next, then James said, "Much in ease! Me next!" and Meowth saw this as a competition, especially as the rest of the Pokemon, Seviper, Carnivine, Mime, Jr., and Wobbuffect all digged in, and soon Meowth joined in, all of them eating as quickly as they could before one over did the rest...

Until the dinner and desserts were all gone, and Team Rocket layed on the floor, happily resting on full stomachs, and moaned happily. "Now this is the best christmas we'd ever had." Jessie said, nearly falling asleep.

"Just have to wait until we open our presents tomorrow morning." James added.

"And since we helped out the Sailor Twerps more than once this year, we should be in Santa's Nice List." Meowth concluded.

To be Continued in the next Chapter...
