Hello again all! It's December already, and I think we all know what's happening in just a few weeks. How do we often count down to the 25th of December? Why, with advent calendars of course! I have one of those chocolate ones this year, and I only started opening them today (I know, I'm late as usual ;) ) And I began wondering for some reason what Christmas would be like for the Storm Hawks in Atmos (I figured they wouldn't have chocolate calendars like us).
So, in honour of the fast approaching holiday season, and Storm Hawks, I have come up with a story idea (That's why you're currently reading about it).
I've never been much of a drabble writer, but, I'm going to try my hand at it and see how it goes. If you haven't already guessed, this is a written advent calendar for all us Storm Hawks fans so that we all can (hopefully) have some small little Christmas themed story to read until the big day! (No promises, but I'll do my best)
I do not own the Storm Hawks, they are the property of Nerd Corps.
So, without further ado, the first instalment of Adventures, Atmos, and Advent
December 1st
On Track
Piper had all of us start decorating the Condor for Christmas today, meaning that Stork and Aerrow hung lights, Radarr cut and hung paper snowflakes, and I had to help Piper decorate the tree while Junko got to set up the train set. Each year we all end up doing the same jobs, and each year when I mention this to Piper she just says, "Maybe we'll switch things up next year."
We never do.
Secretly, I've always wanted to try Junko's job of setting up the toy train. A little childish, I know, but I'm the Finnster - the others should expect me to be childish by now. Besides, I had a similar train set when I was younger and have been dying to try out our Christmas train for years.
I know how to put it together and everything – it's not very hard – but I think that Piper just assumes I'll break it or mess it up somehow. Honestly though, she doesn't trust me with the train set, but she trusts Junko, a Wallop? Junko's my best bud, and I know he wouldn't hurt a fly unless it was a Cyclonian fly, but he can still forget his strength at times.
In any case, I'm determined to play with– I mean, set up the train this year. I talked with Junko about it earlier this morning, and we agreed to meet on the bridge in the middle of the night to create the best Christmas train set up ever recorded in the Storm Hawks' squadron log. Oh yeah, it was going to be amaze-zing!
With all the loop the loops, spins, flips, twists, rolls, and jumps we had planned, our toy train would wow and amaze any and all visitors we may have this month. Plus, by Junko and I creating the greatest train track ever imagined, it'll totally defy Piper and her Christmas organization, adding the oh so sweet zing in amazing! Double the enjoyment for only half the effort – my favourite result there is when it comes to having to do work.
Speaking of work, Junko and I have a lot of work ahead of us tonight if we're going to get our record breaking train masterpiece finished before anyone finds out our plans. Who needs to worry about that though when the sky's the limit for the Storm Hawks when it comes to everything we do?
Junko and I will make the most amazing Christmas toy train track tonight in the history of the Atmos that'll be sure to get the Storm Hawks on track for enjoying another Christmas together.
I can hardly wait!
Well, for those who didn't totally notice, this was a Finn drabble! I know I didn't do the greatest job of portraying his character ( I wrote this one in Physics, what do you expect?), but I hope it was still Finn enough for all his fans out there.
I know I'm a few days behind, but I'll make sure to do the best I can to catch up and/or keep up, so keep an eye out for two updates in a day some times in the coming weeks.
Also, just as a fun little game, feel free to leave a review or message telling me what you think the picture on the chocolate from my calendar each day was that inspired me to write each drabble!
