Dennis was sitting in the living room playing video games before giving a loud yawn. "You alright sweetie?" His grandma Linda asked. "Yeah, i'm fine... Just a little bored." He replied. "And lonely." He thought silently. "Well hey! Let's do something! Howabout a scream cheese kaki cake?" Grandma Linda suggested grabbing a patented box of now packaged Scream Cheese. "Oh grandma i'm not 5 anymore." Dennis said grinning. "Well why not go and explore and meet some local humans?" Grandma said carefully assuming she might offend his monster heritage. "Yeah, i guess." He said turning off the game and grabbing his boots. Dennis then reached for his special coat. It was special because Winnie made it herself. "Ah... Winnie." Dennis sighed quietly. He then open up and trudged through the blizzard to find several kids up and down the block in a great snowball fight. "Hey! Come and play!" One of them called. Dennis with his lightning quick vampire reflexes was best as his own team, and so he built a fort before throwing snowballs like a major league pitcher. "Hey! Wait, stop!" They began saying as Dennis started pelting too hard. "Oops! Sorry!" Dennis said realizing they all were taken down. "Okay... Maybe a vampire player wasn't the best decision." One kid said awkwardly as he rubbed a new black eye. Dennis then realized how alone he was and decided to head for a local park up the street that was empty. Dennis liked the park when it was empty he would just sit on the swing and think, for that's what he did best in life. "Man, why couldn't we spend christmas at the hotel." Dennis muttered as he thought of all the fun he had at the hotel. *Flashback* "Happy birthday Dennis!" Papa Drac said on his 13th b-day giving him a cool silver and ruby amulet/locket. "The family heirloom... The blood amulet, belonging to your grandfather's grandfather... Never lose this." Dracula said smiling broadly. "Happy birthday Zing!" Winnie said tackling him and giving him a present. "I made it myself!" She said excitedly as he opened it. "Aw!" Dennis said pulling out the cool hoodie/coat, it was pitch black with red. "This is so cool!" Dennis said hugging Winnie. "I love it... My zing." Dennis said giving her a wink. *End Flashback* Dennis reached into his shirt and pulled out the locket. He pressed a small piece in opening it too show two picture, one of him and his family, and one of him and Winnie. "Should be back at the hotel before too long, maybe if we go back right after christmas i might get to see Winnie for one day." Dennis thought hopefully. He began walking back realizing his fingers were turning blue. Dennis put the amulet back in his coat and trudged off. As the winter blizzard blew, he trudged harder until he was at his door. "Oh great, someone stole our parking spot again." Dennis said seeing that the spot mom parked in was taken up. Dennis opened the door. "SURPRISE!" Winnie said jumping onto Dennis too lick him and hug him.
