X-Ray sat up in his cot the next morning. "Yawn....well guys, today's the day."
"Christmas?" Magnet asked.
"No, stupid," Squid muttered. "We clarified yesterday that this is July, not December. Today is the day that we're going to be all serious and stuff like that. No more random outbursts."
"But they can't be helped," Zig Zag protested. "What's Ukulele Peanut going to do? The sugar hasn't worn off yet!"
"We can't be random in the last chapter of a story!" Armpit barked.
A hushed silence fell over the room.
"No," whispered Zig Zag.
"What?" asked x-RAY.
"NO!!!" Zig Zag shouted. "WE DON'T HAVE TO STAND FOR THIS!!"
"Then sit down," joked Magnet. Zig Zag ignored him.
"I've been having TOO much fun in this story to stop it now!! I'm going to take this to the warden!!" He stormed out of the tent across the desert to the Warden's isolated little cabin.
"Hey, why not take it to me?" the utterly perplexed Sawyerzelda said.
"Because YOU are the reason this is happening to us!" Zig Zag replied. He turned around and continued on his way.
"Hey, I wouldn't go there if I were you," Sawyerzelda warned. "There's a big fight goin' on over there. The D-Tent girls already went to check it out, and I think they're going to get into trouble."
"In...trouble??" Zig Zag repeated. "THEN I MUST RESCUE THEM!! I AM OFF, GOOD AUTHORESS!"
"Not that kind of trouble!........ah, whatever."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*
"Everyone listen to me!" Dude said, climbing on top of a sofa and standing up. "We don't have to stand for this!"
"Then sit down," joked Ukulele Peanut. Dude ignored her. (a/n: repetiton of jokes isn't good, I know...but it couldn't be helped).
"Dude's right!" said the Warden. "We should listen to Ellen and just-- "
"Ellen?" asked Zig Zag, coming into the cabin at that exact moment. "Who's Ellen? Ellen who? WHO'S Ellen? Who is ELLEN? Ellen IS who???"
"Okay, I think you've asked that question in every way possible," Hammer said, trying to get her boyfriend to shut up. "Anyway, we were talking about Ellen DeGenres. ELLEN DeGenres. ElLEN DeGENRES."
"STOP!" St. No-No cried, whacking herself on the head. "The point is, Zig Zag, that Sheryl Crow was appearing on Ellen's TV show, and she said that Michael Jackson poked his pet monkey Bubbles in the stomach with ball point pens! Just to keep him from 'misbehaving!'"
"Animal abuser!!" Magnet shouted, entering the cabin with the rest of the D-Tent boys who had followed him. "That is just TERRIBLE!!"
"Isn't it though?" the Warden asked.
"What's so upsetting about it?" asked a voice that come from outside. "It's just a monkey. And why do you listen to Ellen DeGenres?"
"Because she's on TV," Ukulele Peanut answered, in a voice that indicated the answer was obvious.
"Hey, who're we talking to?" Eloisha asked.
"Wo bu zhi dao," Dude said, shrugging ("I don't know").
"NO!! STOP!!" Starfish cried. "STOP TALKING IN CHINESE!!!"
"I think it sounds nice," said the mysterious voice from outside the house. "Please, keep talking."
"No, DON'T keep talking," Armpit begged.
Dude swiveled around to face him. "You disgust me!"
"Why?"
"Ni you fei chang pang you ben," Eloisha answered, smirking ("You are extremely fat and stupid"). She and Dude erupted into a fit of hysterical laughter. The others laughed, too, even though they weren't sure why.
"Why are you all laughing?" asked the disembodied voice.
"Who IS that??" Ukulele Peanut cried, pulling on her hair.
"I don't know!" whimpered Starfish, also pulling on Ukulele Peanut's hair.
"Can I answer that?" asked the voice. There was a knock on the door. "Someone is here to see you."
St. No-No went to the door and opened it. She gasped loudly. "TWITCH??"
"Yeah, it's me," he said, walking into the cabin. "But I'm not the one who was talking."
"Then who was?" asked the warden. But her question was unheard.
"How are you still ALIVE??" demanded Zero. "I thought we buried you! You were supposed to die!!"
"Yeah, what happened to our insidious plan?!" St. No-No asked.
"Our what plan?" X-Ray asked, nonplussed.
"Quiet, you co-conspirator!" St. No-No said back. "I am trying to interrogate the twerp! ANSWER MY QUESTION, you BAKA!!"
"Hey, baka!" Dude said. "That means idiot or something in Japanese, right?"
"I thought you were taking Chinese," Twitch said.
"DON'T TRY TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT!!!" Zero shouted. Everyone stared at him. "What, don't I have a right to be loud sometimes?!"
"I guess," Starfish said, shrugging. "But Twitch, stop avoiding the question!"
"What question?"
"Yeah, what question?" asked Eloisha. "I forgot already."
"HOW did you survive what we did to you?" Zig Zag reiterated.
"Oh, it was easy. I dug my way out with my hands. Impressive, aren't I?"
"Ew, you're a dork," Eloisha said, pinching her nose.
"Hey, why are you pinching your nose?" St. No-No asked. "Is it because Armpit took off his shoes? OR....or....is it because you are attempting to hide the fact that your glasses SMELL BAD?!"
"Not with the glasses again," Dude sighed, rolling her eyes with exasperation.
"Twitch just smells bad," Eloisha explained in a nasal voice.
"Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight," the Warden said, laughing. "Hey, Twerp--I mean, Twitch... what's that box you're holding?"
"Oh, this old thing? I figure it's a treasure chest or something."
"OOOH, SHINY STUFF!" Starfish said, her eyes all-a-sparkle. "Can I see? Please???" she whimpered.
"Who let the dogs out?" Twitch snorted.
"TWITCH, NO one likes you!!" Ukulele Peanut yelled. There was a confused silence. "Oh, c'mon! Don't tell me that all of you thought that was random! ..... Because it--wasn't!"
"Don't try to hide your weirdness, please," St. No-No sighed. "Hey, Twitch! That box has--has Stanley's name on it!"
"Stanley who?" asked Ukulele Peanut. She gasped. "You mean you think that the Stanley Cup is in it??"
"No, she means Stanley Yelnats," said Zig Zag, stepping closer to the twitching Twitch. "It's got his name on it....oh, you guys remember Stan! Caveman!!"
"Oh yeaahhhhhh!" Magnet laughed. "You mean the dude who spontaneously combusted?"
"Yeah, that's him. C'mon, let's open!"
"NO, LET ME HAVE IT!!" the warden yelled. The D-tent members stared at her with bemused looks. She had gone so long without saying anything, that had practically forgotten she was there. "I WANT THAT BOX RIGHT NOW, YOUNG MAN!!"
"Um, okay," Twitch said, giving her the box.
"Yes, YES!!" the Warden shouted. "Wishes DO come true!!"
"I wish that you would give me that box," Eloisha said.
"....and then some wishes don't." The Warden yanked on the lid to the box, but it did not open. "Drrrrrratted lock!" she cried. "Armpit, you're fat and strong! Help me open this thing!"
"Yo, I'm stronger than Armpit," Zig Zag chuckled. "This dude is all fat." He punched Armpit in the stomach. "See? He didn't even feel it."
"Feel what?" asked Armpit.
"Exactly."
St. No-No grabbed Squid's crutch and whacked the fire place with it. She looked up the chimney suspiciously and whacked it again.
"Dude, what're you doing?" asked Eloisha.
"Nothing," Dude answered.
"She MEANS St. No-No," Twitch said.
"Thanks Twitch," Eloisha said.
"Oh, anything for you!"
"In that case, please run away." Eloisha narrowed her eyes and lowered her voice to a whisper. "Run away....and never come back."
"You mean you don't want me here?" Twitch asked.
"Must I repeat myself?" Ukulele Peanut asked. "No one likes you!"
Boo-hooing, Twitch ran out of the room and across the dessert, never to be seen again. He ran all the way to Africa, got chased by hyenas, met a meerkat and a warthog, got a new motto, killed his evil uncle, got counseled by a monkey, and lived the rest of his life on a really big rock.
But that's more information than you needed.
"Yes, it was," X-Ray said.
"Hey, that sounded a lot like the Lion King," Ukulele Peanut said.
".....nothing gets past you, does it?" St. No-No asked. She gave Squid back his crutch. "There's something kooky up your chimney, warden."
"What is it?"
"I dunno, I was trying to get it out. It looked like a black boot to me."
"Do you mean to tell me that someone is trying to SNEAK DOWN MY CHIMNEY?!" the Warden erupted. "WHO'S UP THERE???!"
"Me," came a voice.
"That helps," muttered Starfish.
"Hey, it's him!" said Magnet. "The voice from before!"
And then, right before their eyes, a fat man in a large red suit fell down the chimney and into the fireplace.
Unfortunately for him, Hammer and ZigZag had just finished starting a fire.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH-OWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!"
"Hey, that sounded a little like Eliza DoLittle," remarked St. No-No.
"Eliza Who-little?" asked Ukulele Peanut.
"Never mind."
"Mr. Sir, is that you?" asked Dude. "Why are you dressed like Sant Claus?"
"Mr. Sir I am not," said the man. "Nor am I on pot."
"Um.....okay," said X-Ray. "Are you trying to tell us that you're Santa?"
"In the flesh. How ya doin? Have you been a good boy this year, Rex?"
"That's a stupid question," muttered Dude. "If he was a 'good boy,' he wouldn't be at Camp Green Lake."
"Ahhhh, but that's the thing," said Santa. He turned to the Warden. "Miss, it is of my understanding that this camp has not been approved by federal dudes. That's not a good thing. I don't want to have to put you on my naughty list, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to if this behavior continues."
"NOO!!" cried the Warden, getting on her knees. "PLEASE don't put me on the naughty list, Santa!!"
Santa shook his head wisely. "Fear me, 'warden'. God and I are watching you all the time."
"You know God?" asked Eloisha. "Personally?"
"Sure do," answered Santa. "Hey, you must be Eloisha!! I've heard all about you."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Cool!"
"Look, Kringle!" said St. No-No. "I'm curious. What do you plan on doing with me? I'm Jewish. I don't believe in you. I think you're a big hallucination and that we're only seeing you because we're so....hot. You're a mirage."
"Perhaps," Santa said. "I could help that, though. But before I do, I think I'll be nice and give you a favor with that box." He nodded towards the chest with Stanley's name on it.
"Oh, would you, Santa??" Zig Zag asked. "We're so curious to know what it is!"
"HEY, RUDY!!" Santa called up the chimney. "GET ON DOWN HERE!"
Everyone gasped as a skinny little reindeer fell down the chimney. He sneezed and coughed up soot.
"Ohhhh, you're SO cute!!" Eloisha cried. "I have to draw you! But I don't have any paper!!"
"I can fix that," Santa said, talking out his bag and giving Eloisha some paper and Faber's drawing pencils. "Sketch away."
"Oh, thank you Santa!!" Eloisha said, drawing the tiny animal in front of her.
"Rudolph!" Santa barked. "Activate--laser nose!!"
Obediently, Rudolph stuck his nose in front of the lock on the box. A laser beam suddenly shot out from where his nonstrils should've been, and melted the lock. The warden excitedly ran to the box and opened it. She gasped.
"Baseball cards!"
"What?? BASEball cards?!" Starfish asked. "That's so ludicrous!!"
"What a waste, and THIS is what I have been looking for my entire life!!" the warden cried.
"Hey, if you don't want 'em, I'll take them," Santa said. "I'D like a present every once in a while."
"YOU CAN HAVE THEM!!" the warden sobbed.
"Gee, thanks! Oooh, Mickey Rooney! I can get good money off of these!"
"Well, I still think you're just a mirage," St. No-No said.
"As you wish," Santa laughed, scooping up Rudolph and heading back to the chimney. "But take a look outside, would you?" And with that, he suddenly disappeared.
Dude ran to the door and opened. "GUYS, IT'S SNOWING!!!"
"SNOWING?!" D-Tent yelled. They rushed to the door to see for themselves. "But this is Texas, how is it possible?!"
"We don't even get RAIN here!" St. No-No said. "This is phsyically impossible!"
"Physics can't stay in the way of Santa!" Eloisha said, throwing her drawing on the couch and running outside. "COME ON, LET'S HAVE A SNOWBALL FIGHT!!"
"I think I'm gonna cry," Zero said, grinning and wiping away a tear.
"Happy happy day!" Armpit laughed, making a snow angel that turned out to look like a huge shapless blob.
"Well, I didn't exactly manage to make this chapter serious," sighed Sawyerzelda. "I've failed as an author."
"No you haven't, buddy," Ukulele Peanut said. "You've joined the Christmas Spirit! Just too bad that--"
"SEE!?" shouted Dude. "I TOLD YOU TODAY WAS CHRISTMAS!!"
"AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!" shouted St. No-No. "....and Hannukah."
~THE END~
X-Ray sat up in his cot the next morning. "Yawn....well guys, today's the day."
