Christmas Special Part 1
(Note: Like the Halloween Special, this chapter occurs after the events of Volume 1. So there will be a couple references to events that haven't occurred yet)
Leo and I were driving up the Border Mountains, on the far north east of the city. It creates the border of this city in the top right of the city. It was snowing beautifully in the mountains. We reached a cabin. I rang the doorbell. Leo and I looked at the large winter cabin.
"Wow, I can't believe were invited to this Christmas party" said Leo
"Yeah, and since were deep in the border mountains" I said "No unexpected guests should come"
The cabin was located near the top of the Border Mountains, a dense forest/mountain range area which the cabin was quite deep into. Dark soon opened the door and let us in. We walked into the entrance hallway.
"Ooh, it's so warm" Leo said
"Hello Dark" I said "Merry Christmas"
"Merry Christmas Blue" Dark replied
"Who else is here?" asked Leo
"I am" said Masty coming into the hallway "How are you two?"
"I'm fine" Leo replied
"Same here" I said "Merry Christmas Masty"
"Thanks" Masty said as we hugged "Merry Christmas to you too"
We walked into the living room of the cabin. There was a large Christmas tree with several presents around it. And there was a firplace with a crackling fire. Kawa was sitting on the couch drinking, Kyuu and Gcar lying down on the couch. Capler was eating snacks.
"Wow" I said as I looked at the beautiful Christmas tree "Oh! I love the star on top of the tree. It glows so bright!"
"Yeah" said Dark "The Christmas star was actually here before I rented this cabin."
"Hey Blue!" said Kawa
"Hello, how are you?"
"Blue!" Capler said as she tackle hugged me.
"I'm good, Merry Christmas!" Kawa replied.
I replied "Thanks, Merry Christmas to you to."
Kyuu and Gcar greeted us as well. JesusRocks then came in the room
"Hey guys!" said JR "Merry Christmas!"
"Hey JR!" I replied "lol, how many times are we gonna greet Merry Christmas?"
"Hey JR" said Dark.
"Sorry, I can't stay for the whole night" said JR "I have another Christmas party to go to"
"Ah, I see" said Masty "Merry Christmas JR!"
We started drinking hot cocoa, orange soda, and tea. The party soon started moving, Kawa and Capler hung some more shiny Christmas decorations, Masty cuddled with Kyuu and Gcar, Leo played with a DDR machine in another room. JR and Dark prepared and ate some food in the kitchen. I walked to the Christmas tree to place my gifts in.
"Oh, hey Blue!" said Gcar
"Hey Gcar" I replied. We shared a few greetings and she went back to cuddling with Masty.
I placed my gifts under the tree and walked around the cabin to check the place out. There were two floors, a garage and a balcony. On the first floor, the entrance hallway leads to the entrance to the living room and stairs. The dining room is across the Living room and the kitchen is connected to the dining room. The living room also has a sliding glass door next to the tree which leads outside. The stairs lead to the second floor hallway. There were 4 rooms, 2 bedrooms, 1 game room (which Leo was in), and a bathroom. The each bedroom and the game room have an entrance to the balcony. I sat in the dining room with Dark which was just across the living room.
"I wish Azat could have made it to the party" I said
"Yeah" said Dark "But let's not talk about her right now"
"If they knew what happened to her, they'd be in total despair" I said
Dark just shrugged. I moved on and talked with Capler.
"How are you?" I asked
"I'm good, but the only music I can find here are silly Christmas songs" she said
"Yeah, any good ones?"
"Most of them are all old" Cap said. She drank some rum and I had some.
I then had a few drinks with Kyuu after she cuddled with Masty.
"Orange soda Blue?" She offered
"No thanks, I'm good" I said. And then I joked with her "Oh, better not spill that on my chest or Masty might lick me!"
Kyuu and I laughed and we chatted for a little bit.
"Has Leo been up stairs the whole time?" asked Kyuu.
"Yeah" I said. I looked around the living room and kitchen "I think Capler and Gcar joined him in the entertainment room."
JesusRocks then walked to the front door. Capler, Gcar, and Leo raced down the stairs getting a snack to eat in the kitchen.
"Well, I better go now" said JR "Bye Everyone!"
"Bye JR!" everyone said "Merry Christmas!"
JR left and we all went back to partying. Leo and Kyuu watched anime upstairs, Masty was tickling Gcar next to the fireplace, Dark was monitoring the party and Capler was sleeping. I was outside on the second floor's balcony. Leo came out and joined me.
"A beautiful night" I said to him
"Yeah, how are you?" he said
"I'm fine" I replied. I turned around and saw we were standing under a mistletoe "Oh, you know what this means"
"lolwhat?" Leo asked "Oh, I see"
"According to Christmas tradition, two people under mistletoe must kiss" I said. There was an awkward silence. "Well, this is awkward"
I stared at Leo and he stared back. Everything was quiet, I leaned towards Leo. Then a car came slowly up to the driveway.
"Isn't that JR's car?" I asked. JR ran out of the car and towards the cabin. I came back inside to see what was going on.
It was about 10:49 and JR came knocking on the glass door in the living room. Dark opened the door to find JR comes back inside. He quickly came inside and told Dark to close and lock the doors.
"Whats wrong?" Dark asked.
"There is something in the forest!" said JR "When I tried leaving this place, there were creatures surrounding and following me"
"What did they look like?" I asked
"I dunno" said JR "It was dark out night and It was too dangerous to travel all the way down the mountain."
"Well, you're safe now" said Kawa
"Are you sure it wasn't just some woodland animals?" said Capler.
"No" said JR
Leo came downstairs
"Hey JR" said Leo "What are you still doing here?"
"I wa~" said JR, but was interrupted by a loud knocking coming from the front door.
We all walked to the front door. Dark turned on the lights and saw nobody at the door.
"Nobody's there, must be the wind" said Dark
"Wait a minute" I said as I opened the door and walked outside. I looked at the snow floor and noticed footprints heading back into the forest.
"Dark, look at this" I said pointing at the ground
"They're footprints!" said Leo
"No sh*t Sherlock" replied JR sarcastically.
"These footprints look like they're from boots…, metal boots"
"And whoever it was, they are fast" said JR as he pointed at how far the footprints go.
"Let's go back inside and party again" I said as I pushed everyone back into the cabin.
"What do you think Blue?" Leo asked
"I don't know, maybe Dark has an idea" I replied "Let's go to the balcony"
Leo and I walked upstairs and into the balcony. It was too dark to see much outside from the cabin. Leo was about to turn on the balcony lights, but I stopped him.
"Shh" I said "I want it to be dark"
I looked at the trees and the snow floor. Looking for something, yet wishing not to find anything. I started seeing something moving in the darkness. I squinted and tried to see. Dark came out to the balcony and turned on the lights.
"Huh? NO DARK!" I yelled as the lights lit up the cabin.
"What?" said Dark wonder what he did. I looked out at the snow and saw a dark figure running into the shadows.
"What was that" said Leo
The creature ran away quickly like a horse. We all stood there in shock. What was that thing? I asked myself.
"Dark, do you know what that is?" I asked
"Its trouble" said Dark
