How Akito Stole Christmas
Chapter 4: Christmas Eve
The rhymes are spreading to the fans! AAH! Anywho, It's Christmas Eve! Ok, calm down. Unfortunately, Kyo has procrastinated on getting Tohru a gift, and he just had to remember at night. Of course, it's not night yet, I have to build up to it. Oh, and Kureno gave Akito a boot camp of Santa. So, Akito is getting his ho ho ho's down. Yeah, just incase you thought of this, Kyo doesn't know anything about Akito's plan when I talk about it. I zoomed far enough away that he can't hear me. Ok! Read on!
We start in the morning with the kids in their beds, with absolutely no dreams in their heads. Then Tohru wakes up to start the day, so she puts on her clothes and was on her way. Joyful in her head cause Christmas was soon, she looked outside to see a fading moon. Even though faded, it glimmered in the morning light, making the snow glow and Tohru yearn for tonight.
She sighed at the sight and began making meals, cracking eggs, and discarding potato peels. When she was done the boys (and Kagure) woke up, sitting down at the table drinking orange juice from their cups.
"Tohru? What's with all this? Is there something important that I missed?"
"Oh Gure-san" she said, "I'm just filled with cheer. This is the day that I wait for all year!"
"What about your birthday? You said the same about that,"
"Well, I like all holidays!" she said to the cat,
"When was your birthday a holiday?" Kyo said with a smile, watching Tohru think made his day worth while.
"I get what you mean Tohru," Yuki said, glaring at Kyo wanting him dead.
"So what did you get me?" Shigure asked while Tohru was there,
"Shigure, I can't tell you. That wouldn't be fair,"
"How's that not fair? I can still act surprised,"
"That's not the point, it's that.. that look in your eyes,"
"Oh, I understand. She want's us to make our eyes glow,"
"Oh Aya, you're the only one that would know,"
As they spoke French and Kagure gripped Kyo's waist, Tohru sat down and ate with haste.
"Tohru, slow down. You're going to choke,"
"Sorry Hatori, I," and her voice broke,
She started to sputter, her face turned blue. Everyone else was busy, so only Hatori knew.
He came up behind and wrapped his arms around her chest, he pulled hard to dislodge this pest,
"Thank you Hatori I…" Tohru said looking around, to see a seahorse flapping on the ground.
"Where's Ha-san?" Ayame finally said, everyone missed the moment Tohru was almost dead,
"I'm so sorry!" Tohru screamed, they thought she hugged him, so it seemed,
Hatori changed back and changed really fast, then got up and he acted as if there was no past.
"So… Who wants to go caroling later today?"
Only Ayame agreed to go with Shigure.
So Ayame and Shigure left to go sing, leaving Hatori alone with the teens, (close enough of a rhyme)
Tohru bustled around filling the house with decor, with the help of Yuki she covered it ceiling to floor.
Suddenly, Shigure burst through the door, holding some clothes that he dropped on the floor.
"You're back so soon?" Tohru said in shock, She saw how early it was with the nearby clock.
"Well it's pretty cold, so we didn't stay long, and Aya changed during mid-song,"
A snake came out of the pile of clothes, then changed into Ayame, with a runny nose.
"Did anyone see you change?" Hatori said with no emotion,
"It's ok Hari, there was no commotion,"
"Momiji? What are you doing here?" Hatori said, as the bunny came near,
"Well, Ayame and Shigure came to the estates first,"
"So no one else saw the curse?" (Yet again, close enough)
"Well that's settled, um.. Ayame? Put on your clothes,
"Oh sorry," he said, wiping his nose.
So, everyone chattered, but Kyo stayed in his room. Conniving a plan to make Yuki his groom,
"I am not!" he yelled, as my laugh filled his head, every second he wanted me dead.
I might as well say Kyo you might want to go fast, cause I can easily make a several hours go pass.
Suddenly, it's 9 PM and the moon is bright, everyone's asleep except Kyo tonight.
Kyo crept out the window into the dark, walking the streets and through the park.
He arrives at a store and goes on inside, it was filled with people but there was no time to bide.
He went through the isles, pushing people out of his way, until he arrived in an isle that was empty, to say.
It was the bakery, with delicious foods in the glass, he took in a whiff of the smells going pass. Then he saw the cake. It was definitely the one he would take.
He looked at the price, it was more than it should have been. He looked in his wallet, his money was thin.
He looked at the cake, and started turning away, when the baker stopped him by yelling "Hey!"
"Merry Christmas to you," the baker said, handing Kyo a box wrapped in red.
Kyo opened it up, and to his surprise, there was the cake before his eyes. The baker was gone, Kyo than left. He was then tackled by a cop for theft.
The baker ran out forgetting to scan the price, so he told the guard the story. The guard was then nice.
Kyo ran home with his slightly crinkled cake, because he was tackled and it caused it to shake.
He got to the house, it was locked all the way around, so he set the cake on the ground.
He thought of a plan to get inside, so that he wouldn't have to hide.
While he thought, which would take a while, we'll zoom to two people, one with a smile.
"Ok Kureno, we're almost there. Soon, Tohru will be out of our hair,"
"How does this get Tohru out of our hair?" Kureno said without care,
"It will… it will do something okay?" Akito said, to his dismay.
"So this whole time you never made a plan?"
"Look you! I'm doing as much as I can!"
"Well, it's eleven o'clock. Are we going to go?"
"Just get me my suit, and it's off to the snow!"
They shuffled around making Akito fat, and then they left to the house, only to see the cat.
"What's this? Why is he here? Gah, to the back!" and they grabbed their gear.
"Why are you talking?" Kyo asked me,
Um.. I'm just practicing, see?
"Whatever," he sighed, and he thought more on his plan, to get inside to Yuki, his man.
"Look! If you do anything like that again! I will kill this whole thing off! What?! You don't think I can?" he said as I covered a laugh with a cough,
He made an evil smile as if he knew the answer all day, so I went to Akito in time to hear him say,
"So.. how do we get in?" Akito said to the cock (Rooster), and what Kureno did caused a big shock.
He punched a near window and crawled inside, opening it up for Akito since he needed it wide.
Akito wormed his way in, they were in Kyo's room, Kureno stayed back and Akito thought of doom.
He got to the living room to see a spectacular tree, which he unplugged and laughed with glee.
"You call that evil?" Kureno said, causing Akito to jump and land on his head,
"Don't scare me like that you idiotic fool, remember now, you're just my tool,"
Kureno sighed and put a needle in the Christmas light's wire, so when plugged in it would spark and maybe cause fire.
Akito switched name tags of the gifts around, when behind him he heard a strange sound.
There in the stairway was a little girl, the sight of her made Akito want to hurl. But he put on a smile and he said,
"Shouldn't you be in bed?"
"Is that you Santa?" she said, she couldn't tell it was Akito, cause she was a sleepy head, (Aww)
"Um, yeah... yeah, I'm Santa," Akito said, "Now tell me what you're doing out of bed?"
"My friends you said you weren't real," and then she reached out to feel,
She touched his chest and Akito jumped away,
"See little girl, it's false what they say,"
Tohru's eyes filled with happy tears,
"I knew it! I knew it!" she said with cheers,
"Shhh! Quiet! Don't make them wake!" he said grabbing Tohru, giving her a shake,
Tohru nodded and then looked around, to see there was no toy bag to be found.
"Where's your toy bag?" Tohru asked Saint Nick, causing Akito's brain to tick,
"It's in the sleigh!" Akito said fast, but his idea didn't last.
Tohru's eyes got bigger and she started to shake, Akito quickly knew this was a mistake.
Suddenly, from the hall came a boy who was kind of tall. He had gray hair, and when he saw the scene, his eyes got big and started to gleam.
"I didn't doubt you Santa!" Yuki said, as he bowed to the floor hitting his head.
Yuki got up and bounced on the balls of his feet, and Tohru did too and the scene was complete.
As the two bounced, Akito turned to the other fraud,
"Get them out of here," he said, and Kureno gave a nod.
"I'm sorry you two but you must get off to bed, because Santa can't work if you see him," he said,
The kid's faces changed, but not for the worse, because they new that Santa came first.
They slowly went to bed, Tohru didn't get her drink, so she took a detour to the sink. Santa and elf, they didn't see, that Tohru watched them with glee.
As Akito and Kureno sabotaged the room, Tohru felt a strange feeling loom. And she thought,
"Why was the elf taller than one should? And why didn't Santa act very good? He seemed somewhat mean, but it must be the stress. Working all year, giving toys to the best."
Tohru gave up this thought and kept an eye on the two, when suddenly out of the blue. There was shadow on the sliding door, suddenly it wasn't there anymore. Kyo came in kicking it down, and he walked inside and gave a frown. There in the room was to odd men, and he saw one had a beard falling off his chin.
Kyo put the cake down with the utmost care, then dived at the man with the facial hair. It came off fast and he saw the man, it was Akito! And Kureno and him ran.
I think this is far enough. I think you guys really need this. And this is the longest one yet. Sorry for the slight cliffy. Anywho, I have to work fast.
