A Digimon Frontier Fanfic

By Haru Glory

A/N: Thanks for the reviews again! Well, here's the next chapter, I hope you guys like it. It's a lot longer than the previous chapters. Anyways...is chapter 47th.

Chronicles of Time: Of What the Future Brings

Chapter 47: 'Sayonara'

Sure enough, the gang arrived at a snow covered field with a loud 'thud'.

"How many times do we have to fall like that before all this is finished?" Max asked.

"Hey, it's not that bad compared to our previous…err…travels." Kira said.

"Speak for yourselves!" JP managed to say as he was being pinned down by everyone, "Now, will you all PLEASE get off of me!"

"Sorry about that!" Everyone apologized in unison.

After JP was helped up, they began to fully take in the scenery of the place that they fell into. And it took them only a couple of seconds to realize where they were now.

"New York?" Zoe asked.

"Well, I don't think we all have to argue about it." Koji said as he still was carrying Koichi at his back since his twin was still in a deep slumber.

"Yup." Hitakaru nodded, "The Statue of Liberty just proved it."

Sure enough, looming by the distance was the glorious Statue of Liberty. It Awed everyone, save for Max who have seen it countless of times when his family would take on a couple of days vacation at the said city.

Takuya however, sighed at the sight of it making everyone confused.

"Hey, Takuya, what's the matter?" Zoe asked, worried.

"Well," Takuya replied, "It's just that, I have always wanted to travel the whole world, but now that I have managed to go to Italy and now, New York…I just feel bad about it."

"Why?" Max asked, "Well…apart from the destruction I don't see any more reason why you shouldn't be as excited as the others are."

"I am excited but…don't you think we all deserve some break?" Takuya asked, "Which reminds me, I forgot to do one thing back at Italy."

"What?" Tommy asked.

"Buy souvenirs!" Takuya replied with a smirk on his face, "I think a souvenir would have proved that I've been on Italy. That's one thing I should not forget to get here."

Annoyed at what a simple thing it was that Takuya had forgotten, Koji could not help but hit Takuya right on the head...but not that hard.

"Next time, try telling us something worthwhile, will you?" Koji said.

"But Takuya has a point." Erika said.

"About the souvenirs?" Katsuya asked.

"No." Erika replied, "I really don't mind much about the souvenirs, but what we really do need is a break…"

"And that's one of the things that we can't afford right now." Yumi said, "Danger might be lurking just around the corner."

"But it wouldn't hurt to relax once in a while." Kira said.

"They're right Yumi." Katsuya nodded, "Besides, I have a feeling we won't run into any trouble for a while…much less trouble from a general."

"What makes you so sure about that?" Hitakaru asked.

"Just like how Koichi said it, I have a feeling about it." Katsuya replied, "Besides…I think everyone deserves a break during Christmas Eve

At this, everyone's eyes widen in surprise.

"Christmas!?" They all asked in unison.

"Don't toy with us; we left the real world during October." Max said, "How could it be December already?"

"That's right, the first time we went to the digital world, time didn't fly at all when we returned." Tommy remembered, "It's not possible that it's already December."

"You all forgot." Katsuya replied to all of this, "It's Chronosmon you're fighting with. He has the power to control time and even distort space. He can make time fly faster in this world and slower on the other world…He can destroy the space of this world and transform the space of the digital world. We're lucky he didn't decide to do anything drastic like that except for breaking the space-time balance of the two worlds making their time parallel."

"Then that means," Koji said, "We've got a lot of explaining to do to our parents after this."

"And that also means that it's Christmas!" Takuya and Tommy cheered happily.

Lucky for the children, they were surrounded by abandoned houses. Some destroyed others were standing still.

"You don't think we'll get in trouble for using one of the houses here, do you?" Erika asked.

"Well…nobody here's gonna caught us." Kira replied, "Besides, we're trying to save the people here. What better way to repay us than to us their house."

"Uh…Kira?" Hitakaru said, "I don't think we need anything back for saving them. They don't even know what we're doing right now."

"At any case," Takuya said, "We're not going to rob them; we just need a place to stay for the night, and to have our little party!"

So, they all agreed that it was okay to…um…borrow one of the houses that was still in perfect shape. They found one house that was perfect for them. After they did, Kira and Max along with JP went to buy some party items; Takuya and Tommy went to buy the ingredients that both Zoe and Erika needed to cook some food. Tommy also made a mental note to buy some ingredients to make his specialty, hamburger. Koji decided to stay behind and watch over the girls and his sleeping twin brother.

Hours later, Everyone that went down to the market to buy the things that they needed, returned with handful of groceries.

"I can't believe you two asked us to just use all of our money to buy these stuff." Takuya said after he and Tommy had placed the groceries on the table at the kitchen.

"Well, we told you to get the ingredients." Erika said, "We never said you had to buy them. You could have just taken some of the ingredients."

"I don't think Takuya and the others have the heart to do something like that." Zoe said, "We already have to use their houses without permission, we can't steal any of their stuff."

"Zoe's right!" Yumi said as she began to help Tommy make hamburgers for everyone.

"Don't worry, we'll pay you guys up when all this is over." Zoe said.

"Ah, don't worry about it anymore, Zoe." Takuya said giving Zoe a kiss, "Just wanted to complain that's all."

"Hey!" Kira greeted the people inside the kitchen, "We sure could use some help decorating the whole place!"

"Eh?" Takuya asked, "Oh, right. I'll get Koji and then we'll help you guys."

After kissing Zoe on her forehead, Takuya went to one of the rooms where Koji was patiently waiting for his brother to wake up.

"Hey!" Takuya greeted as he entered the room.

"Hey." Koji greeted back, "So, how's shopping?"

"Tiring." Takuya replied, "Say, we need to go down and help JP, Katsuya, Kira, Hitakaru and Max decorate the living room."

"Can't they do it by themselves?" Koji asked, "The living room's not THAT big."

"Oh come on, Koji," Takuya replied, "It'll be fun decorating with the others, besides, I don't think Koichi would be happy about it if he learns that you didn't even move a finger to help out. Remember we're a…"

"Team." Koji finished, "Fine, I'll help out."

It took almost three hours before the whole place was decorated and for Koichi to finally wake up. When he did, he helped Tommy, Yumi, Erika and Zoe arrange the food on the long and wide table while the other guys rested themselves.

Snow has begun to fall down on New York that night. The moment that everything was ready, they began to have a PARTY, singing Christmas carols and dancing to the tune of music. Forgetting for a while the troubles that are bugging them.

"Hey, why don't we have a little friendly competition?" Koichi asked with a grin.

"A competition?" Everyone asked.

Koichi nodded, "Let's all have a signing contest. The one who wins will have one thing they want given to them."

"Well, if that's what the prize is I don't think Zoe and Takuya have to compete." Max said grinning.

Takuya and Zoe could not help but blush at that. But even they have something more that they want.

"Hey, we'll still compete, right Zoe?" Takuya replied.

"Right." Zoe nodded.

"So you guys agree to that little competition?" Koichi asked.

Everyone nodded.

And so, their competition began. They drew lots to see who the first to sing was and the one who got the number 'one' on the paper was none other than Koji.

"Great!" Takuya said, "Now we can hear Koji sing!"

"Yeah." Koichi nodded in agreement, "I've never heard my brother sing as well."

"What a treat!" Zoe said.

"You guys don't have to sound so excited about it." Koji said, blushing, "I'm not that good at singing."

"Enough talk, and start singing Koji!" JP exclaimed.

Koji sighed before he started singing his own song. The song entitled 'In the Blue'.

Itsu ka doko ka de mita you na

Hoshi ga mure tsuki wa aoi yo

When he finished singing, and well, if I might add, everyone was shocked to have heard his voice.

"What?" Koji asked as he saw the look on his friends' faces."

"And you said you can't sing." Katsuya said.

The next one who sang was JP much to Koji's pleasure.

"Don't even try to get off of this one JP." Koji said, "Why don't you sing for us now?"

"Is this what you call 'pay back', Koji?" JP asked before he started to sing his own song, 'Spark'.

After JP had sung, which surprised everyone because of his voice, it was time for Hitakaru to do his thing. Hitakaru, had choked off the first few words of the song, which was entitled, 'Believe', which also happens to be a Christmas song.

Asa okitara makuramoto ni purezento no yama

Tsukuribanashi minna wa sou itte iru kedo

Shinjitereba aeru hazu sa otona datte ne

I believe in Santa Claus

But in the end, after all the choking, Hitakaru managed to awe everyone as well…with a mixture of laughter.

Koichi soon followed Hitakaru with his own song, 'Kimi ga Ita Scene'.

"Eien" no imi ga mada wakaranai kedo

Omoide ni kawaru toki nani ka ga hajimaru yo

Ima demo tokidoki kimi no yume wo miru

As he was singing, Takuya and Koji caught him stealing glances over at Yumi's direction whilst blushing from time to time. The next one up was Kira who sung 'Strange'.

Hey! It doesn't really matter where you go!

It makes a difference, baby, who you know!

This thing has gotten way out of control!

Hey! It doesn't really matter who you are!

You might as well be a super star

'Cause everything has gone way too far!

This is the strangest thing....

It's getting stranger and then

It's getting harder to win!

It's getting digital and

It starts happening all over again!

Hey! It makes a difference, baby, what you say!

It's getting weirder every day by day!

I think there's something's really gone astray!

Hey! It doesn't really matter what you try!

It's getting even harder to deny

'Cause reality's just said good-bye!

This is the strangest thing....

It's getting stranger and then

It's getting harder to win!

It's getting digital and

It starts happening all over again!

It's getting stranger and then

It's getting harder to win!

It's getting digital and

It starts happening all over again!

After that, he was followed by Katsuya who sung what Takuya had in mind to sing, 'Salamander!' which surprised everyone.

Shiranakatta nda chigau sekai ga arukoto wo

"How'd you know that song?" Tommy asked.

"And why did you sing it? I'm the one who's suppose to sing it!" Takuya said.

Katsuya just grinned at them, "Well, too bad, I just sang it."

"You're in trouble now Takuya." Koji said, "You'd have to think of something else to sing or you'll be forced to forfeit!"

"There's no way I'm gonna lose this contest!" Takuya thought as he began to ponder of what song he could sing.

His thought were cut short when it was Zoe's turn to sing 'A Drop of Wind'. You could expect Takuya's reaction when he heard Zoe sing for the first time.

"Hitori demo heiki!" sou omotte ita kedo...

And everyone could not help but drop their jaw. Zoe was followed shortly by Yumi who sang 'Arigatou'.

Thank you for all your tenderness

Thank you for all your happiness

Thank you for all your kindness

Thank you for all your everything...

This also gave her the same loud applause that Zoe received. After two girls sang, it was time for Takuya to show them how good he could sing, although they have heard him sing 'Salamander' and 'Fire!!' countless of times whenever things were going easy for them during their journey at the digital world, they were curious of what he would sing now that Katsuya had stolen his song and are hoping that he would not sing 'Fire!!'. They were all so relieved to hear him sing a different tune, a song that they have not heard which Takuya told them was entitled, 'Ki Ni Naru Aitsu'.

"What is that song?" Kira asked after Takuya had sang.

"Yeah." Zoe said, "It was different from the ones you sang before, Takuya."

"Eh?" Takuya replied, "It was a little something I composed a while back…when we were riding the train to the digital world for the second time."

"I never thought you'd have it in you to compose something like that." JP said.

"Hey!" Takuya replied, "You're not the only one who has a high creativity level, JP."

"Let me guess…" Koichi whispered to Takuya, "You were thinking about Zoe, right?"

Takuya grinned.

Max and Erika soon followed as they sang in a duet, much to JP's displeasure.

Never know what's 'round the bend

We go up a hill and down again

And when there's trouble we'll get through

We always have and we always do

Nothing in the world can bring us down

No, not us

We'll spread a little sunshine all around

There's never enough

All we wanna do is have a good time

Havin' lots of fun with all these friends of mine

All we wanna do is celebrate

Ev'rytime we've been together it's been great

Looking for adventure, big and small

Just being with a friend like you is all we wanna do

All my friends are here with me

And things are good as they can be (Oh, yeah)

Travel places near and far

But home is always where we are

Travelin' the world is what we do

Looking for adventure, big and small

Just being with a friend like you is all we wanna do

Do you wanna come along?

Just be prepared for anything

Get into the flow! Get ready to go!

Get ready to spread your wings!

Yeah!

And all we wanna do is have a good time

Havin' lots of fun with all these friends of mine

All we wanna do is celebrate

Ev'rytime we've been together it's been great

Havin' lots of fun with all these friends of mine

All we wanna do is celebrate

Ev'rytime we've been together it's been great

Looking for adventure, big and small

Just being with a friend like you is all we wanna do

"I know they're just cousins." JP thought to himself, "But if this is Max's way of making me jealous, he's doing a good job."

After Max and Erika sang 'All we wanna do'. It was Tommy's turn as he sang 'Say, yes!' to his friends.

Asa ga kuru sono tabi ni umare kawaru ki ga shiteta

He received applauses for this just like everyone else. After everyone had sang, they forgot all about who the winner is as they felt their tummies rumble…they felt hunger.

"I'm hungry." JP said.

"For the first time, I agree with JP when it comes to food." Max said, "I'm hungry too."

"C'mon then, you guys." Zoe said, "You don't expect us to bring the food right here, do you?"

"I guess not." Takuya said in a joking manner which earned him a playful punch from the girls.

Soon, everyone was chatting away while eating. It was Koji and Koichi's chat that was most interesting of all…well, maybe except for JP and Erika's where JP was trying hard to tell Erika how he feels about her.

"Koichi…?" Koji began as he watched Koichi take a bite from the ham.

"Yeah?" Koichi asked after swallowing.

"You like Yumi don't you." Koji said.

This caused Koichi who was then drinking some juice to spit out his drink and cough. This turned everyone's attention over to them for a couple of seconds before returning to their plate and to the person they were talking to or listening to…

"Wha-what are you talking about?" Koichi asked. "I don't have any…feelings for her, okay?"

"You can't lie to your own twin brother Koichi." Koji said as he continued to eat his food, "Takuya and I caught you glancing over at her while you were singing that love song of yours…you were hoping she'd take notice that you're talking about her, right?"

"Err…" Koichi bit his lip.

"I'm sorry Koichi but," Koji said as he watched his brother, "But I would advice you not to feel that way about her…"

"Why?" Koichi asked, "Do you like her too?"

"As a friend yes and as a family too." Koji replied, "But you don't like her, I know you love her."

"Okay, so why don't you want me to feel that way about her?" Koichi asked, "It's not as if you're my rival when it comes to her."

"Because, you'll only be hurt." Koji replied, "There are things that are hard to explain at the moment. But you'll understand why when the time comes."

"Now you're sounding a lot like Katsuya." Koichi muttered.

"Just be wise about this Koichi." Koji said in a tone that suggest their topic was over.

This left Koichi to ponder what it was that his brother knows about the girl that he had fallen in love to.
It was either because of the amount of food that they devoured or because everyone was so tired after the feast that the announcement and decision of the winner was laid forgotten as everyone fell into a deep slumber.

Several hours have passed and it was already nearing dawn. Everyone was still sleeping, all save for one who was standing at the doorway leading outside.

"I'm sorry, everyone." He said as he watched everyone sleeping peacefully, sadness could be heard in his voice, "But I guess, fate has its own ways of doing things."

He looked over at his companions before he began to close the door, "He's calling for me now…I guess this is good-bye."

And with that, the door closed and he began to walk off to the north of the city. To where he should be…

Unknown to him, he was not the only one awake at that hour, Takuya was watching him from where he laid.

To be continued…

A/N: First of all, here are the translations for the Japanese songs that I've used from above:

In The Blue(Koji's theme)

Sometime, in some place, you saw something like

A crowd of stars in a certain month, and they were blue

I'm only merely a man at this hour,

Always having my spirit being taken away

The star being led by the night of day,

Its spirit floating, you then murmured...

Only in my eyes, you see just one Regret

You just smiled, the moonlight pouring,

Only in my heart, can't take away the Regret

Regret stops, but the word is repeated three more times,

I am trembling...in the blue, blue moon.

I became just a little adult,

I like to copy a experienced, standing on tiptoe.

Everyday, it doesn't seem to end:

Always searching for the answer.

Because of that day, only you

And that constant air blowing...

Only in my eyes, you see just one Regret,

To the beginning of the season, forgetting things, I wonder...

Only in my heart, can't take away the Regret

I experienced even the smallest pain.

To be smiling again...in the blue, blue moon.

Only in my eyes, you see just one Regret

You just smiled, the moonlight pouring,

Only in my heart, can't take away the Regret

Regret stops, but the word is repeated three more times,

I am trembling...in the blue, blue moon.

Only in my eyes, you see just one Regret...

Only in my heart, can't take away the Regret...

Only in my eyes, you see just one Regret...

Blue, blue moon...

Just thinking...in the blue, blue moon...

Spark!!(JP's theme)

From a cliff I look up at the sky

Whether I fall or I take off, it's just one spirited feeling

Even if I stood still, time passes

I can't pull back anymore

In battle I'm liberated

My fist that grips vexation

Is also the driving force connected to tomorrow

A superconductive power, a super intense spark

Thunder rumbles in the sky

A superconductive spark, a super high-speed laser

I'll send out a sure-kill attack from my two arms

Even anything can change at anytime

If I take that first step forward...

When lightning shines it guides me

My destination is far away but my chest throbs

The path that I chase down is dangerous

I even had times when I felt weak-hearted

The power that moves unseen things

Is in me and I believe in it

And I only advance and nothing else

A superconductive power, a super strong hammer

My full energy overlaps itself

A superconductive spark, a super high-voltage thunder

My solid shell will take everything

If anyone shows true courage

Everything might start to change

A superconductive power, a super intense spark

Thunder rumbles in the sky

A superconductive spark, a super high-speed laser

I'll send out a sure-kill attack from my two arms

Even anything can change at anytime

If I take that first step forward

Believe(X'mas song from Tamers)

To wake up in the morning to find a pile of presents by my pillow

Everyone says it's just make-believe

But if you just believe, anyone, even adults

Can see him in his red outfit, with that gentle smile

Every year, I gaze out

At the illumination just for this day, it casts a spell

Running through the star filled sky like a shooting star

Carrying a white sack

He'll bring presents here to me

Why is it that we stop believing in things we can't see?

Everyone says of course there's no such thing as Santa

It's always important to believe

I'm waiting for your smile

Every year I rub my sleepy eyes

I'm awake in my bed, but my mom doesn't know

Crossing the snowy town with his reindeer

Ringing the bells

I'm know he'll bring pieces of dreams to me

Running through the star filled sky like a shooting star

Someday he'll come here to see me

I'm waiting

I believe in Santa Claus

Kimi Ga Ita Scene/ A Scene with You(Touya Kinimoto's song – CCS)

Even though I still don't understand the meaning of "eternity,"

something starts anew when it becomes memories.

Even now, I dream about you at times,

in the nights full of peaceful stars.

You turned towards me and were about to say something,

and that shadow is going to disappear in the morning light.

I couldn't even say, "I want to stay with you forever,"

but to only wave in silence, at that time

Even though my heart hurts from the wound of farewell,

I now want to believe in a new encounter.

Seasons come and go, and the sky that reflects in my eyes

could be seen brighter than yesterday.

From the scene with you, taking a step forward,

I start to walk, without looking back anymore.

The sigh after you turned your back on me,

is it all right to make that a memory of our time spent together as well?

Roads lead into the future, however far,

the warm winds will be blowing in there

Even though I still don't understand the meaning of "eternity,"

something starts anew when it becomes memories.

Even though my heart hurts from the wound of farewell,

I now want to believe in a new encounter.

Salamander(Takuya's theme)

I didn't know

That there's another world

If it calls out

Then it needs my power

I won't be interfered by a red card

I'll penetrate a Digital Field

The salamander shouts, the burning flame in my fist

I'll become an incandescent dragon and fly!!

The salamander roars, the Spirit will be attached onto my body

And I'll open up a new legend

A leader

I'm not built to be one, right?

But when it comes to my friends

I'll protect them even against their will

Both justice and evil, their flames are the same

If I don't believe in myself then I can't fight

The salamander breaks everything that interferes

The element of fire dwells within, Agnimon!!

The salamander runs, I'll open up the path to tomorrow

And protect this chipped world

If just strength alone is the answer

It's easy to see why but it's wrong

The salamander shouts, the burning flame in my fist

I'll become an incandescent dragon and fly!!

The salamander roars, the Spirit will be attached onto my body

And I'll open up a new legend

A Drop of Wind(Zoe's theme)

"I'll be okay even if I'm alone!" so I thought, but...

But I became a little lonely, so

Ah, while I look up at the sky

Ah, I'll murmur a little

So that I can laugh

The wind, embraces me

A drop of wind quietly floats down

To my parched lips

"I don't need to be "forced!"" maybe I'm bluffing?

I'm always searching for someone in my heart

Ah, I'll chase the drifting clouds

Ah, running without thinking

Because I want to laugh a lot

The wind, is watching over me

A drop of wind quietly whispers

To my moistened lips

So that I can laugh

The wind, kisses me

Look, on my gentle lips

A drop of wind is shining...

Because I want to laugh a lot

The wind, is by my side

I won't look away

So that I'll be more honest

Arigatou/ Thank You(Kinimoto Sakura's song on CCS movie 2)

The clouds are floating by... The wind is singing

Even now, along the streets I always used to run along,

white flowers are blooming and smiling.

But it's unstoppable. It chokes me up inside

I love the present, but it will always pass...

It's just like a fragment of the dream I cried over long ago

The serenity that floats by like a fluffy white cloud

And the worries that make my tears spill over

are both connected to the precious future,

so...

Even when tomorrow comes

Even when someday I become an adult

I'm sure I'll always remember.

that you were here with me.

I'll never forget,

even when I'm in the very ends of this vast world.

For this moment that will never disappear,

I thank you, everyone.

The moon is shining down. The wind is sleeping.

In the sky above that always smiles down on this town,

even now shooting stars are granting wishes.

But I don't understand... I don't want us to ever part

for as long as time passes, but we end up being far apart

It's just like the bookmark in the book I read yesterday.

My longing to shine like the twinking stars

And my feelings, however sad they may be,

are both connected to the precious future,

so...

Even when the seasons pass,

even if it's in some unfamiliar place somewhere

I'm sure the future is unfolding.

I'll never forget

that you were all here with me.

For what has quietly begun

from this little place,

I thank you, everyone.

The land where we rode our dreams

set forth from our memories

We'll meet again.

For now, please smile...

Even if it's for a long long time...

Even if you go off far away somewhere

I definitely want you to keep in touch.

Don't forget

that I was here with you...

no matter where you are in this vast world.

For these feelings that will never disappear,

I thank you, everyone.

Thank you for all your tenderness

Thank you for all your happiness

Thank you for all your kindness

Thank you for all your everything...

Ki Ni Naru Aitsu/ The Girl I can't Ignore(Lee Syaoran's theme – CCS)

This can't go on forever. I look up at the blue sky

The wind that blows over everything runs up the hills

My usually serious face watches you from far away

What has happened to my pride?

That girl I can't ignore, that mysterious girl

I'll just watch quietly from here

It seems that something big waits around the corner

That feeling I can't ignore, that mysterious feeling

My heart beats like in a dream

It seems that every day it gets stronger

I won't be beaten by her

I chase the orange clouds so hurriedly

With all my strength I trip over something, falling on my hands

When did she start to mean so much to me? I don't know why

Fly over the asphalt and hurry home

That girl I can't ignore, that mysterious girl

I can't look away from her eyes today

Why am I matching my pace to hers as we walk down the street?

That feeling I can't ignore, that mysterious feeling

Something made my heart start beating

But I have an idea! I won't give up whatever happens

I won't be beaten by anyone

That girl I can't ignore, that mysterious girl

You wouldn't stay here patiently within your heart

You want to know the true power that's been kept secret

That feeling I can't ignore, that mysterious feeling

It's like our future's a labyrinth, isn't it?

Grasping my dreams tightly

I won't ever give up on myself

Say, Yes(Tommy's theme)

I felt like that every time when morning comes I'll be reborn

I only wished that I'd become strong someday

When it came to my dream I thought that I wouldn't lose it to anyone

But just to say honestly, I run away scared

If I don't move and don't try, my power won't increase

There's nothing that I can't do, I can say yes! I'll fight

Everyone finds the answer without even looking at textbooks

Maybe I'll decide to what I like myself

Say a big yes! Surely I'll be okay on any path

I hold close a courage even harder than ice

I'll change, look, I'll become a more and always cool me

Because I won't stop with my goal unfulfilled

First of all, I promise that I won't say "No way!"

If I don't believe and don't start, I can't hold on to a miracle

I'll search for something that I can do, I can say yes! I'll try my best

Hey watch, look, I'll become a more and always reliable me

Because just being helped is a little shameful

My favorite hero that I sketched on blank pages in my open notebook

If I don't meet him then I won't give up and I'd like it if I became him

Say a big yes! Surely I'll be okay with whatever enemy

I'll defeat him with a fist even sharper than ice

I'll change, look, I'll become a more and always cool me

Because I won't stop with my goal unfulfilled

Okay, with the translations set aside. I would like everyone to know that I have no idea why I chose those songs for them to sing instead of the normal Christmas carols…honestly, I have NOOOO idea.

Apart from CCS songs, I also used 'All We Wanna Do' from the Totally Pokemon soundtrack. Well, what do you guys think? Can you guess who it was that said good-bye? Well, even if you can't guess you'll all find out soon enough.

Well, that's enough for today, I'm really not feeling well today. Anyways, 9 days left before Christmas day! Saying "PEACE" and signing out, this is Haru Glory! 'Til next time, see yah!!!
