"I don't want to," Skylar huffed, folding her wings across her chest.

"Why not?" Gilbert whined.

"Yeah, come on," Aldwyn added in an equally annoying tone.

"I said I don't want to."

"Please?" They begged in unison.

"No." She said firmly, trying to exit the room.

"Please, please, please..."

"Fine, fine!" Skylar huffed after the twentieth please.

"Yes!" Gilbert exclaimed, jumping up and giving Aldwyn a high-five. "I love Christmas caroling!"

"We know you do," Alwyn and Skylar told him.

Five minutes later, the three familiars were seen bolting home as fast as they could.

"You shouldn't have picked a fight with that kid," Aldwyn said to Gilbert.

"Hey, how was I supposed to know that his friends were that good at snowball fights!" Gilbert dusted snow off of him as he spoke.
