Christmas Classics

Scrooge: Part 3

"I suppose you're the ghost of Christmas future?" The ghost nodded, suddenly there was a very strong wind which blew his hood off revealing a boy who looked really bored. Krad gaped, "You're not serious…you're my age! Why am I being beaten up by people like you and younger? This is so demoraling!"

The ghost raised a brow and held up a sign, technically, I'm older than you.

The spirit sent a smack to the blonde's head, who in turn, glared at him, "What the hell? Don't smack me you dumb…cloak-wearing-freak! The least you can do is talk!" The boy shook his head and gestured to his throat while holding up a sign, "…I see…a sore throat?"

The spirit nodded, and began to write another sign, I am Aku, your last appointment.

"Uh huh, and you're the professional I've heard."

Scribble, scribble.

That's right.

"And you're going to show me the inevitable…"

Well not really inevitable…

The blonde crossed his arms and looked at the ghost boredly, "So you're here to show me the error of my ways and try to guilt me?"

Basically.

"Where are we?"

A cemetery.

"I can see that." Krad looked around.

Doesn't this place make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?

"No…are you trying to be sarcastic on paper?"

Perhaps, but it should feel familiar to you, look.

The spirit pointed to the tombstone, Krad raised a brow and kneeled down to look at it, he read it out loud to himself. "Krad Hikari, sir stick-up-the-ass, unloved and died alone." He scoffed, "Wow…you can sure feel the love…"

Then a relativelytall redhead came by sighing, "Krad…why didn't you go to my party? If you did that would've changed everything! Everything I say!" Sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh.

The golden eyed boy shot a look over at the spirit, "So this is what you're trying to get at, it's that stupid party again! All you queer people seem to be trying to guilt me into going to Niwa's party!"

The spirit shrugged and looked away. Daisuke continued sighing, "Dark was so disappointed…he gave up after that year, you two would've had such a wonderful future! Oh why Krad? Why didn't you come instead of spending the next day complaining about lack of sleep? Why?" He began to sob...and sigh, "Why? Why? Why Krad?"

Krad raised a brow and plugged his ears, "This doesn't make anything inside me stir, though I wonder how I would've reacted if I wasn't dead and buried six feet under...in this scenario anyways…"

Aku raised a brow and shook his head in disappointment, I'm ashamed of you, does the sight of your own grave, not to mention the rude words engraved on it…he switched signs since he ran out of room, disturb you?

"Why should it? I'm dead."

The boy sighed and transported them to a different scenario while Daisuke, still wailing, began to punch the headstone still screaming 'why' very dramatically.

-w-h-y--o-h--w-h-y--o-h--w-h-y

"Why Krad?"

The blonde's eyes twitched, "I thought we weren't at the graveyard anymore!"

We aren't. Look around dimwit.

Krad complied, unenthusiastically and was surprised to find Dark standing there, grown up…ish. Well not really, but he did look older and handsomer. And again, very angsty as he looked out the window in almost a longing way.

I didn't want to have to do this to you but…too bad for you.

"What? All he's doing is staring out the window." The man sighed again, "I really wish they would all stop sighing, it's really annoying…"

"Krad…why didn't you show up at the party? I could've sworn you liked me…maybe I was wrong but still, I liked you! Why didn't you show up?"

"He…liked me?" Krad was shocked, well not really but he managed to act like it. "Why didn't he just tell me?" He got another smack in the head, "What was that for?"

For being stupid.

"I'm not stupid!"

Aku took a moment and scribbled words onto his sign that magically erased itself after being read. Yes you are.

"Why Krad? I loved you you know! I mean sure you're somewhat an ass and all that but still, why didn't you go? Why weren't you nicer at school? Why'd you have to be so mean to me?"

"Hey! I'm the reason you passed school! And now when I'm dead you complain!? Just you wait, I'll get you…"

You're dead.

Krad turned around and snapped, "Don't give me all this dead crap! You're dead too! I'll just haunt him and kill his sleep!"

"Dark-san!"

The blonde froze at the voice and turned around, eye twitching. "Yes?"

"Are you alright? I heard you moaning, thinking about Krad again?"

That sounded sooooo wrong…Dark sighed and sniffled sadly, "Yea, I can't help it…"

"It's okay…poor Dark-san…" Then she hugged him.

By that time Krad was shaking the poor spirit by the hood, "Get me away from here you freak! Argh! I'm going to kill him! How dare he go off with the Harada girl!"

The boy wrote very messily onto the sign, it was barely legible, that's because you didn't gooo to the party-

"Who cares about the goddamn party?" A moment later, out of fury, he knocked his pride down, it fell with a 'whumph' for some reason, "Fine I'll go!"

Shakily the spirit got up, have you learned the errors of your way?

"What errors? I said I'd go to the party, not correct my way of living. I'm not about to stop shooting carolers because I had three ghosts, one a brat, another insane and you, mute. It's going to take more than that to make me 'learn the errors of my way' you moron."

"I give up…you're so stubborn!"

Krad raised a brow, "So you can talk…"

"Dark-san…"

The two looked at the two fearfully as they began to close the gap between them, "Holy shit! Get us out of here!" Aku nodded hastily and they ended up back in his bedroom, "You stupid brat! Don't you ever show that to me again! Be gone with you!"

"My time's up anyways…" Krad crossed his arms and waited for the boy to leave, Aku turned around, "You can't see this."

"Why not?"

"It's confidential how I depart from people's dreams."

The blonde frowned, "And what are you going to do? Knock me out?"

"Exactly…" A moment later, something hard hit his head and he fell onto his bed with a 'whumph'.

-w-h-u-m-p-h-

The blonde woke up, he had a headache, he swore, the doorbell rang, he sighed and grabbed the gun he usually kept under his pillow and headed to the door to blow the carolers' heads off. Then he remembered everything that had happened…and shrugged and opened the door with the gun anyways, screaming carolers always cheered him up.

He smirked and went back inside to change, singing lightly to himself, "Tis' the season tohear screaming, fa-la-la-la-laa-la-la-la-la…"

-t-i-s--t-h-e--s-e-a-s-o-n--t-o--h-e-a-r--s-c-r-e-a-m-i-n-g-

Dark sat on the chair swinging his legs, "I wonder if he's going to come…everyone's here already…" he sighed angstfully, "I guess not…"

"Dark-san…"

The boy looked up, "Risa-chan…"

"Eeto…would you…like to dance?" She asked blushing.

"Yea sure." He smiled and got up, after all, Krad wasn't coming.

When they were about to start dancing, the door opened violently causing all activities to pause, everyone stared at the door, cold air blew in but no one was there. A minute later Krad walked in frowning, "Why's the door opened?"

Daisuke shrugged, "The wind must've opened it…"

"I see…if I didn't know any better, you were all expecting someone to violently step through the door…"

The redhead nodded, "I thought it'd be you."

"Well it wasn't."

"Apparently not…"

Krad paused, "No it wasn't."

"…so you did come."

"What?"

"Did you suddenly realize the error of your ways?"

The blonde snorted, "No, I'm just here to send the message across."

Daisuke blinked, "And what message would that be?"

"That he," He walked over and pointed to Dark, "is mine so hands off."

Then he pulled the other boy into a kiss, Dark of course, had no problem with that, so the two ended up making out in the middle of the party, in public, much do Daisuke's horror and Satoshi's disgust. In amidst of the make out session, Satoshi got smacked on the head for commenting on their making out-ness.

Two figures sat around unseen by the crowd, the girl sighed, "How does he do it?"

"Who knows? But he didn't see the error of his ways…"

"Who cares? Those two look so cute together!"

The sandy blonde frowned, "Whatever, next time you should have better timing, you opened the door before he got there."

"So what? It's not like you did all that much better!"

"Kyu?"

The girl's widened in delight, "Bunny! You're alive!"

----------------------

"Krad?"

The blonde looked over, "Yea?"

Dark smiled, "Why did you end up coming to the party? Not that I'm complaining, but still, I'm curious, you don't seem to be one who would fall victim to Daisuke's puppy eyes…"

"Let's say I had persistent people bugging me…annoying persistent people who wouldn't shut up or wouldn't talk and kept showing me stupid horrid things…"

"You mean like three evil ghosts?"

"Yea."

The violet haired teen snorted, "That's so cliché."

Krad grinned, "I know."
