~Christmas Eve~
"Jack I'm going to bed. It's after midnight."
"Ok, I'll be here if you need me."
"Feel free to sleep on the couch then."
"Well, where else would I have slept the last month and a half?"
"Outside in a pile of snow."
"Good point."
"Night."
"Night, snowflake."
"Quit calling me that." I go in the bedroom and put on some pajamas. I'm just lying down and hear a noise. "Lizzy, tree was to close to the fireplace. I think he hit his head."
"Ok, I'm coming." I walk to the fireplace. "You know you don't need to yell its all one room with a curtain in the middle, right?"
"Yes I know."
"What happened here?"
"You didn't use the door. I mean for crying out load it's your place."
"I know, I know."
"You all done for the year?"
"Not yet I have two more presents left."
"Then why are you here!"
"Because they are yours."
"Oh." He hands me and Jack a present. "Well go on open it." Jack opens his first. "What is this, a joke!" Jack holds up a pair of shoes. Me and North start laughing. "North you've done it this time."
"Ok, now open yours." I open mine and pull out a necklace. "It's beautiful, North."
"Well, try it on." I put it on and it starts glowing. "Uh, North why is it glowing?"
"Jack just watch." They look at me in awe. "What are your problems?" Then it just stopped and everything went black.
I woke up and it was dark. I knew immediately where I was. "Pitch."
"So you do remember."
"How could I forget?"
"How are you?"
"Cut the crap. What do you want?"
"Same as last time."
"Forget it."
"You either cooperate or you can join your family."
"I was with my family."
"You call them your family?"
"Yes, their all I have left."
"Aw, so sweet. I'll let you watch as I kill them one by one."
"Over my dead body."
"That can be arranged."
"Go to hell Pitch."
