Sorry to keep everyone waiting so long! Here is the third and final chapter!
As evening descends over Earth, the Autobots warp into the Decepticon Lunar base, armed with high-octane Energon, tanks of oil, and several boxes wrapped with many-colored bows. The Authoress is with them.
On the other side, Haley and the Decepticons stand together, the tension between the two factions ready to burst.
Haley: runs over to her friend and hugs her, setting the example "Merry Christmas, hon."
Authoress: hugs back "Merry Christmas, Haley!"
Within moments, The Autobots and Decepticons are milling about in the warp area, exchanging reserved greetings and well wishes. Optimus and Megatron shake hands, and generally greet each other's soldiers.
In the decorated main hall, long tables are set up--one with Transformer-sized things, and the other with Human sized things. Several faces familiar to both authoresses are in attandence, thanks to the magic of Haley's teleporting machine.
Haley and her friend sit at opposite ends of the Human-sized table.
Haley: "Let the celebration begin!" starts to plow her way into turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet rolls, Parker Houe rolls, corn, steamed carrots, various other vegetables, and salad, pouring herself a glass of sparkling cider.
Megatron: Optimus Prime....in the spirit of the holiday...I welcome you to our base. I hope you will accept these...humble offerings, and for tonight anyway...our....friendship.
Optimus: In the spirit of Christmas, Megatron, my men and I accept. sits down at table at the same time as Megatron, with their men following suit.
TF (Authoress): Haley...did you hear?
Haley: looks up from her plate "Yes, I did. I asked Megatron to set the mood for the evening. After all, it's his base."
TF: How did you get him to listen?
Haley: "I told him it was a request and not an order. He's been very good lately. I've gotten him a present for later." winks
After dinner, the Autobots and Decepticons gathered around the tree and exchanged gifts. Most of the gifts were tailored to each individual, and generally everyone walked away from the gift exchange happy. Afterward, it was the Autobots turn, and they broke out the Energon. Glasses were passed around, and everyone drank some. A half hour later, the Energon has had its effect.
Haley: Now that I have your...undivides attention, I have a special surprise for you....We're going to have a special Christmas movie marathon tonight and into the morning!
A groan is the only response.
Haley: It will begin with the Christmas staple...'How the Grinch Stole Christmas,' followed by 'The Muppet Christmas Carol' and 'Ebbie.' Afterward, the primere of 'Love Actually,' starring one of my favorite actors, Liam Neeson. Following the primere will be a series of wonderful little short Christmas cartoons which you are sure to enjoy. And when THAT is over, 'To Grandmother's House We Go,' featuring Mary-Kate and Ashley! We will end the movie marathon with a presentation of 'The Greatest Story Ever Told.'
TF: Isn't that an Easter movie?
Haley: Sure it is, but it shows the whole life of Christ. His birth is what Christmas is really about. Besides, I think they deserve a good movie.
Megatron: groans "Prime?"
Optimus: Yes, Megatron?
Megatron: Better crack open that last barrel of Energon.....it's going to be a long, long night.
Jetfire: Will do....Hey, Starscream...wanna help?
Starscream: Sure...unlike them, we flyers can hold our liquor.
Jetfire. Not Thrust.
Thrust: appears in his cage, cuddling with his Squidward dolly and wearing a Santa hat "MERRY CHRISTMAS, SQUIDDIE! MERRY CHRISTMAS, MOON! MERRY--"
Haley: holds Thrust's vocal processor in her hand, tossing it up in the air and catching it "At least he can't talk anymore. I'll get Red Alert to fix it tomorrow."
Red Alert: lifts his head up slightly "The hell you say, Haley..."
Haley: sighs "All right, everyone, what do we say?"
Autobots and Decepticons: From all of us, to all of you--
Meagtron: "Squishies! OUCH!" is hit with Skuld's extendable mallet by Haley
Haley: Do it right!
Megatron: "Okay, okay....." mumbles something
Haley: What was that?
Megatron: Erm...Nothing, my lady.
Haley: Thought so...now start again.
Autobots and Decepticons: From all of us, to all of you....MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Haley/Authoress: We Wish you a Merry Christmas
We Wish you a Merry Christmas
We Wish you a Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year!
Good tidings we bring
To you and your kin.
Good tidings for Christmas
And a Happy New Year!
And with that sentiment, Autobots and Decepticons alike prepare for the "Movie Marathon...."
Okay, it's short, I know....but I'm not very fueled up on ideas at the moment, unfortuantly. Please read, review, and let me know what you think!
