Chapter 5VvV Christmas Eve VvV
Wanda ran in the snow, pushing her way through it as the snow fell further making it deeper and much more fun to run in; although she ran from John she smiled and then began to laugh as she ran until she sat down on a bench and stared out at the snow. Her eyes had been shining with tears but now they sparkled with the Christmas fever and she looked at her watch; 12:03, 'Christmas Eve!' Wanda gasped in surprise and then laughed again before lightly singing to herself, "one more day to go…"
"One more day till Christmas," Wanda's head shot up as she heard John's voice singing in the background and she frowned before standing up and walking indignantly away but she was stopped as she felt snow splattering against her back and she scowled.
"JOHN!" she turned around and was ready to shout at John but suddenly she began to laugh outright as John sat up, buried half deep in snow with a pile of snow on his head and crossed his arm sulkily over his chest.
"It's not funny," John stood underneath the tree and then began to walk back to Wanda but another pile of snow fell on his head and he sat back down into the snow with a huff. He scowled and tried ignoring as Wanda began to shriek with laughter and turned to avoid the snow splattering on her. "You asked for it!" Wanda turned back to look at John as he spoke but opened her mouth in shock as she spotted a massive snowball heading her way and got hit in the mouth with it.
"JOHN!" She shrieked again and used her powers to create a huge snowball that she threw at John, but as it missed she stopped it flying into a tree and changed its route straight back to John, laughing as he looked behind himself and got hit in the face. She began to laugh but turned to hide her face as another snowball hit her in the side and she giggled before throwing a snowball back at him. They threw them repeatedly at each other, both yelling and shrieking with laughter before a door opened above them and Bobby walked out onto the balcony followed by Tabby! Tabby wearing bobby's boxers and bobby wearing the bed sheets rapped tightly around his waist, glaring down at John and Wanda.
"Do you two mind! You're disturbing the romance here, would you keep it down!" John and Wanda looked up at the two of them, shared a quick glance with each other and both got hit in the face by the other's snowballs, shrieking with delight and ignoring as Bobby and Tabby both slammed the door shut.
"AAAAAAAH! NOT IN THE FACE!"
"HAHA! TAKE THAT LOSER!"
"LOSER! YOU'RE ONE TO TALK JOHN! AAAAAAAAAH!"
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! TOLD YOU!" John sent another snowball whirling and Wanda shrieked but her shriek grew louder as John ran at her and picked her up, holding her over his shoulder and then running towards a big pile of snow. He dropped her right into the middle of it and then began to pile the snow on top of her, laughing at her constant shrieks of laughter as she tried to kick the snow from her feet.
"JOHN!" Wanda shrieked with laughter but as John began to cover her arms she lifted them up and her hands began to glow blue and she threw him into a big pile of snow. She used her powers to shake a branch tree and John yelled as a huge clump of snow fell onto him, trapping him completely as Wanda yelled with laughter and kicked through the snow, splattering it everywhere. But then she walked over to John and held out her hands to him, trying to pull him up but her hands slipped off his and she fell backwards in the snow as John got completely stuck and couldn't move.
"NO! I'M TRAPPED! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH GET ME OUT!" Wanda sat up in the snow and giggled as John began to struggle against the frozen snow around him before she stood up and began to dig him out.
"John you're completely hopeless you know," Wanda giggled as John managed to kick away from the rest of the snow and he growled teasingly at her before launching himself at her and hurling them both backwards into the snow. They rolled around for a while, both being covered in snow and then John sat up, straddling Wanda and smiled at her with a glow in his eyes.
"SNOW ANGELS!" He jumped off and lay next to Wanda, waving his arms madly next to him along with waving his legs and then stood up, admiring his creation before turning to Wanda who smirked at him and lay down.
"I bet I can do a better one than you!" she laughed as she admired her work once she had finished and then turned to John's angel, "yup I win!"
"Ya rahght! Ah'll beat ya no problem at all!" Wanda and John turned to look at the crowd standing behind them and both smiled.
"Y' tink Chere, coz Remy tink he can do a better one den y'!"
"Oh yeh! Well seeming as I have the best wings here…I think I'm gonna win."
"Luv, that's called cheating, and besides…I will so kick all your asses!"
"Yeh right, my angel will, like, so totally be the bomb!" (I.e. great.)
"Pretty Kitty, sorry but you have no chance; you're looking at the snow angel champion!"
"Dat may be so in America, boot in Russia I vas de best und de biggest snow angel around!"
"Ja, but in Germany you'd never find better zen me; ze funkiest, furriest angel in ze vorld!"
"Sorry Kurt hun, fur may be cute but I'll create the most stylish angel you can find!"
"Hahaha! I'll do it quickest and neatest!"
"Yeh, that may be so but mine will be the coolest angel; can you imagine…the first angel with claws!" Everyone shared a look and then turned to Lexa, shaking their heads in pity at the idea, "what?"
"Luv, angels are supposed to be good ya know…I don't think they're gonna have adamantium claws, seeming as the claws are mainly used for causing injury and trauma."
Lexa rolled her eye at Betsy but began to lay down in the snow, we'll see about that!" once everyone was finished they all stood up in a row above their specific angel and looked around. John's held a drawn on lighter in hand with a flame coming out, Wanda had lay down on hers and used her powers to create a faint glow around her hands as she moved them. Rogue's had her hair fanned out and two strips on either side covered in snow to create her white effect whilst Remy's had a drawn card on it, whereas Betsy's addition was two swords and Warren's was his real wings instead of the fan. Kitty's angel was nowhere to be seen and when they asked she blushed and mumbled about phasing into the ground as she made it, and Lance stood on top of a mountain shaped pile of snow. Piotr's was by far the biggest and bulkiest and had strange marks all over it where he had switched his metal on, and Kurt's was definitely the funkiest with the additional fur touch. Amanda's (Sefton) had a hand drawn halo and the hair was created so it looked like braids, and Pietro's had taken the least of time to do, with his shaped hair fashioned perfectly. And finally everyone came to Lexa's, staring at it with a sense of confusion as everyone took in the hand and foot claws skidded in with the wings and bottom, whilst she smiled proudly over it until it was completely destroyed as she chucked John in.
"What! I only said it looked as scary as you!" Lexa growled and picked up a massive snowball that she hurled in his face, bending almost in half as John sent another flying her way that hit Betsy as Lexa ducked. But Betsy soon returned a massive snowball using her telekinesis, which landed on John, covering him from head to foot until he jumped up, spraying it over everyone. They all looked at each other for a second until everyone began to lunge for snow, chucking snowballs and other things besides. Remy flew through the air as Rogue chucked him because he had exploded a pile of snow near her, sending it splattering her side, and he landed straight on Piotr, who rolled his eyes and threw him in a pile of snow. Pietro ran around Lexa, causing a miniature hurricane that sent snow flying in all directions whilst Kurt ported away from all the snowballs until he landed in a pile of snow instead, sitting up and smirking as he began to throw it at Betsy who stopped it. She smiled innocently before smirking and sending it back with force and then turning on Warren who picked up scoops of snow with his wings and flung it at her. Wanda used her powers to send a massive pile of snow Kitty's way but she phased threw it and retaliated by throwing fistfuls of snow at Wanda, only getting hit as Lance caused a tremor in the earth which distracted her. He laughed as Kitty phased through the pile of snow the tremor dumped on her and then ran off in the opposite direction, right into Amanda and Piotr's path. They both laughed and looked at each other, nodding before they through their snowballs at him; Amanda's only hitting a lump of snow as Lance was buried under Piotr's snowball.
Their shrieks of laughter had by now attracted tumultuous attention and the new mutants appeared, yawning and complaining until they saw the snowball fight unravelling infront of them. Bobby's eyes opened wide and he used his powers to create an ice cover, icing away as Piotr accidentally sent an ice-pile their way. Roberto, Jubilee, Tabby, Todd, Rahne, Danielle, Ray and Jamie all fled but Amara, Blob and Sam didn't move fast enough and the snow landed on them. But Blob simply walked straight out of it all, rubbing his hands together mischievously as he picked up an equally giant snowball and hurled it Piotr's way. Sam cannon-balled out of the snow, sending it everywhere as Amara caused the snow around her to melt before quickly turning back to her human form and picking up a few snowballs. Rahne changed into a wolf form and turned her back on Tabby, digging out the snow so that it was sent everywhere; covering the Blonde whom quickly retaliated by throwing several bombs at the snow. They exploded and sent snow over Rahne who shook herself and went to pick on Roberto who threw snowballs back and laughed, whilst Tabby sent more snowballs hurling in everyone's way. Amara melted any snowball heading towards her and Jubilee as Jubilee threw them at Todd who threw twice as much back in even less time with much more force. Danielle smirked as she projected an image of a comfy, cosy fire into Jamie's mind and managed to throw a snowball in his face whilst he was distracted, but he got her back as he multiplied. Jamie's other forms soon wondered off to tackle more people as Ray threw snowballs at the snow invincible Bobby and got splattered by snow as Sam cannon-balled into snow piles sending it everywhere.
They all screeched and laughed with delight, throwing snowballs and piles of snow at each other, or splattering snow everywhere else, enjoying themselves more than ever before. But soon enough people began to yawn and shiver with cold, and the Professor's voice rang through each of their heads; "I'm glad you all had fun, but bed now time to rest." Everyone smiled and looked at each other with goodnights, heading up to their rooms for a peaceful sleep after such a fun morning.
