Hey guys!

Mr. Cartoon: Howdy!

Welcome to another chapter of TCB (Initials for The Christmas Book). MC, care to remind the readers on what to expect this chapter?

Mr. Cartoon: Sure thing! So from what we know, it will feature the appearance of Princess Willow, as well as some royal friends and pirates. But that's not all!

Yeah, it'll also have two special friends.

Mr. Cartoon: And if I know better, they'll both be making special entrances. One at a time anyway.

Right! So let's get on with this chapter! Care to do the disclaimer this time, MC?

Mr. Cartoon: Sure. Now in this story, most of the characters that appear on hear do not belong to me or Nellie, but to Disney Junior. However all of Nellie's OC's belong to her, and all of my OC's belong to me.

Chapter 2: Meeting new friends.

After Maggie has grabbed her book, and a pen, and bidding her mother goodbye, she left the house with a shine of the ring. For today, she had one objective in mind, and that was to find the perfect Christmas story. Using the magic of her ring, she transported herself to Magicia, Willow's home. Once arriving, she was greeted by the friendly people as she walked towards the palace.

One she is very familiar with.

As soon as she had gotten there, she could see the gates immediately opening up for her, as well as the doors. Walking in, Maggie was amaze at our decorated the palace was. In Magicia, the residents celebrate something called Christ-Magic. It was sort of like Christmas, only except here it's more magical and wonderful. Maggie had to be impressed.

"Maggie? Is that you? Oh sparking spells, it's such a pleasure to see you."

Maggie heard that voice, and turned to see it was Princess Willow, and she could tell she looked excited to see her. Maggie grinned. "Hi, Willow!" She greeted as the fourteen-year-old princess hugged her. "I thought I'd give you a little visit, plus I need help with something."

"Anything you need, Mags. I'll be happy to help you." Was Willow's response.

Maggie smiled hearing that, as she showed her friend the book. "My Mom gave me this special book, so that I can write about a Christmas adventure." Willow smiled with amusement.

When Maggie continued, "So... I need your help with a story."

"Oh of course, Maggie." Willow said cheerfully. "Anything for my good friend." Maggie really liked the sound of that as she replied, "Thanks! Now, how should my story start..."

"Well, Maggie, if you wanna start a story with an adventure... first you must go on an adventure... and I'll go with you."

"Great!"

With that, the two left the castle and begin their exciting Christmas adventure. "Oh Maggie. I've been waiting to do this ever since we've met. I want you to meet a good friend of mine from the kingdom of Enchancia. Maggie was a little confused at the moment, what is Princess Willow talking about? Soon she would find out. At that moment, Willow, with a flick of her wand, transported herself and Maggie to Enchancia. It was winter wonderland. Maggie was completely amazed right now seeing all the snow around.

She was even amazed when she saw the castle. It was huge. Willow explained that the people here celebrated Wassailia. Wassailia? Now what was that? Apparently it was just like Christmas too. As the two approached the castle, suddenly, they noticed guards approaching them. Was this a good thing, or a bad thing? Well, it was a good thing. "Princess Sofia has been expecting you." Said one of them.

Maggie was a little surprised, but not Willow since she was smiling. So the guards would escort the two to the castle. Inside, the castle was decorated beautifully. And Maggie was amazed! "This place is so big..." She told Willow as they walked into the throne room. And in said throne room, was the royal family of Enchancia... or well, four of them.

Willow and Maggie bowed. "Hello, your highnesses." Willow greeted. Queen Miranda couldn't help but smile a little as she greeted her back, along with the royal children, Sofia, Amber, and James. That's when Maggie noticed something. "Uh... isn't there suppose to be a king?" She asked.

"Oh. The king went off to do some last minute royal business. Just to get ready for Wassailia in a few days." Miranda answered. Well that was a shame, Maggie thought it would have been really great to meet the King in person. Oh well, maybe next time. That's when Maggie began to explain her reasoning for coming here. As she holds out a book and explained, the royals looked amused.

"So I was hoping maybe... Sofia, James, and Amber would like to join us on a winter adventure, to find a story worth telling." Maggie concluded her explanation. As for the royals reactions, well... they couldn't help but feel both amazed and excited... well, at least Sofia and James were. Amber was a little unsure.

"Sounds fun!" Sofia spoke up.

"I'm in!" James exclaimed.

"I don't know..." Amber said. "Being out in the cold, freezing and trudging along the snow..." She shuddered.

Miranda smiled. "I think this is a great idea. You have my permission to go, children." Sofia and James were ecstatic as they high five each other, while Amber groaned slightly.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!" James exclaimed again.

With that, the royals went to go get their winter coats. "Dress warm." Miranda reminded them. Minutes later, Willow, Maggie, and the royal children (All dressed in warm clothing) leaves the castle gates and were all on their merry way. Amber shivered in her coat. "Why does it have to be so cold this time of year?" She asked herself.

As for Maggie, she felt as if she wanted more people to help her... a few more friends. "Hey, Willow. I suggest we find more friends to join us." She told the sorceress ice princess, who smiled in return. "And I know a few pirate friends who could assist us."

Sofia's eye lit up at the sound of that. "You mean Jake and his crew! Great, I haven't seen Jake in such a long time."

Now the only question is, how will they find them? Well, Willow had that answer as she raised her wand. And with a wave from it, the group transported to a very magical place. They all found themselves in Never Land. A place where you never grow up. And at the right moment, they saw three kids, and a parrot, having a snowball fight.

"Heads up matey." A young boy wearing a red bandana shouted throwing a snowball.

Sofia smiled. "Jake!" She called as she ran over to him. Jake suddenly stopped and turned to where he heard someone call him, and smiled when he saw Sofia running to him. "Sofia!" The princess hugged the pirate as his mateys, Izzy, Cubby, and Skully noticed. "Oh, Jake! It's so good to see you again." Sofia told him. Jake chuckled. "Yeah I know, this is quite a surprise. We didn't even know you were coming today."

That's when Maggie walked towards them. "Hi, I'm Maggie! I'm the reason we're all here. I've got this book from my Mom, and I want to write a cool holiday story about in it... and we were hoping that you guys could help us out."

"Cool!" Cubby spoke up.

"Yay hey! Of course we'll help!" Izzy added.

"If there's one thing I like, it's going on an adventure with my mateys." Jake said as he took Maggie's hand and kissed it. "By the way, my name is Jake. And these are my mateys Izzy, Cubby, and Skully."

"She's a charm to meet." Willow spoke up, walking towards the crew. "I'm sure you guys remember me." That's when Izzy said, "Yeah. Our friend Peter Pan told us all about you. You're Princess Willow."

As if on cue, everyone would hear a rooster crow. Willow smiled. "And there's Peter right now, isn't it?"

And she was right, cause high in the sky a bright green light could be seen soaring through the sky towards Pirate Island as we speak. And out of the light came... Peter Pan! "Peter Pan!" Amber shouted in excitement.

"Such a pleasure to see you again!" Willow added. Peter turned and saw Willow as he smiled. "Same to you, princess." He greeted with a bow. Maggie was thrilled as she walked up to the boy who never grows up. "Hello, Peter. I'm Maggie. And I need your help! I have this book that my Mom gave to me, and I need help writing a fun Christmas adventure."

"A Christmas story?!" Peter questioned at first.

Maggie nodded as Sofia explained, "Yeah! Maggie was hoping we could all go on an adventure to find a Christmas story worth telling."

"I see." Peter replied.

"Perhaps you'd like to join us, Peter?" Willow asked.

Peter thinks it over for a bit, then smiles as he answers. "Oh what the heck, I'm in! Cause this sounds fun to do."

Maggie grinned. "Great! Now... where do we begin on this adventure?"

That's when Willow would step in to tell out the plan to everyone. "Well, I know a place near Magicia where it's winter for most of the year. It's called Holiday Valley."

Surprisingly, Sofia actually heard of that place. "I've heard of that place. My Mom says that Holiday Valley contains a snow beast, a gingerbread man village, an ice palace, and a Christmas mansion."

"A mansion?" Amber asked, slightly interested.

Maggie chuckled. "Well. I guess we can go to Holiday Valley... but I feel as if somethings missing... as if... we need one more person to join us on our adventure... but who?"

"Oh, hold on a second!" Peter said.

Everyone looked at the boy, as he began to explained.

"If were talking about snow beasts, gingerbread villages, and a mansion. They all might be a bit dangerous, so I think we might need a little extra help." Peter said. "Luckily I got somebody in mind."

That's when Peter pulls out a piece of paper, much to the confusion of everyone else. "Who are you talking about, Peter?" Amber asked, getting rather too close to him, for she still had that crush on him the last time they met. "Him!" Peter said, pointing to a picture of a person on the paper.

"Who's that?" James asked.

Suddenly, the person on the picture looked around and asked. "Hey Peter, is it safe to come out now?" This caused everyone but Peter to scream in shock. Amber shrieked and jumped into Peter's arms, causing him to drop the picture. "That picture is alive! Save me, Peter!"

Peter couldn't help but chuckle. "Relax Amber, there's no reason to panic." He then looked at the picture and said to it. "Everything's all clear, you can come out now."

"Oh good!" The person said as his arms suddenly come through the picture, but now normal human size. Now Maggie was impressed. "Wow, how did you fit in that painting?" She asked.

"Painting? Oh this ain't no painting." Peter said.

Suddenly, the person fully pulls himself out of the picture, landing on the snowy ground face first. The others watched carefully. Who was this person? When the person stood up and brushed himself off, it wasn't long before Jake and his crew smiled with excitement seeing who it is.

"Shawn K.!" They exclaimed.

They all ran up to the all star and hugs him as Shawn chuckled. "Well ahoy there, my little buccaneers. Good to see ya!"

The royals were confused. "Who is this guy?" James asked.

That's when Cubby began to explain. "This is Cartoon All Star, Shawn K. He lives in a place called the Tooniverse."

Shawn looked to the royal family and bows to them. "You must be the royal children, Peter told me about you three. A pleasure to meet you all."

Sofia and Amber curtsied, while James bowed. As for Maggie, she was amazed right now. An actual cartoon all star. How cool is that? Speaking of all star, Shawn K. turned and noticed Maggie standing there.

"Well hello there,." Shawn greeted approaching Maggie. "I don't think you & I met. Have we?"

Maggie shook her head. "No, we haven't. My name is Magnolia Joyner. But you can call me Maggie."

"Pleasure to meet you Maggie. I'm Shawn K." Shawn introduced himself, shaking Maggie's hand. "I happen to be known as a famous celebrity in the Tooniverse."

"Cool..." Maggie replied. "Now, since you're here. I need help."

With that, Maggie began to explain her book to Shawn. "So, what you're saying is. You have been given a Christmas book as a gift from your mother to write stories in it. And you, Princess Willow, and the others are going to come along to help." Shawn said. "And you need my extra help in case we run into danger?" Maggie nodded.

"Yeah... pretty much."

Willow then said to Shawn K. "I believe you would be a great help in this journey... uh... shouldn't you be wearing something warm since it's winter time." That's when Shawn realized she was right. "Oh, yeah.. Hold on a second!" Shawn K. said as he suddenly began to spin around like crazy, before stopping seconds later. Now wearing winter clothes. "There we go."

Maggie giggled. "Great! Now... how do we get to Holiday Valley."

That's when Willow says, "I've got that covered." The princess took out her wand and said a magic spell.

"By the powers of winter, don't dilly dally. Take my friends and I to Holiday Valley!"

So with a wave of her wand, and a heavenly bright glow. Everyone was transported immediately to Holiday Valley.

And thus began the search of a Christmas story worth telling...

That was a good meetup chapter.
