Chapter 17:

The tree trim was just beginning.

Page and Mandy were on the floor once again talking into the microphones.

"How can you not believe in Santa Megan?" Mandy asked.

"Because it's stupid. There is no such thing as some fat dude who goes around the whole world in one night and gives presents to every kid in the world." Megan said.

"Then I guess we'll have to take you to the North Pole and show you." Page said.

"How are you going to do that?" Megan asked.

Then a man walked out. He was dressed up like a conductor. "All abord the Polar Express!"

"What?!" Megan yelled.

"Are you Megan?" The conductor asked.

"Yeah. Why?" Megan asked.

"You're coming on the Polar Express to see Santa." The conductor said.

Then a bunch of Seniors came through a set of double doors that led into the big gym, carrying pieces of cardboard that had windows painted on them, making it look kinda like a train.

"What is that supposed to be?" Hiten asked Sarah.

"I guess it's a supposed to be a train." Sarah said, not believing that the seniors were doing something like that.

"What's a train?" Miroku asked.

"It's umm...." Sarah couldn't think of how to explain it. "A umm... It's a way of transportation in the present." Sarah said.

"Now! On to Freshmanville!"Page yelled as the seniors walked across the gym and bakc out the double doors.

The Page and Mandy were left on the floor.

"Well, while we wait for the train to get to Freshmanville, why don't we sing a Christmas song?" Mandy asked.

"How about the Twelve Days of Christmas?" Page suggested.

"That's a great idea Page!" Mandy exclaimed.

Then Mandy and Page started the song as they walked over to where the 1st graders were sitting.

"On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..." Mandy and Page started.

Then all the 1st graders stood up and yelled, "A partrigde in a pair tree!"

(AN- sry, can't spell.)

Then Mandy and Page sang, "On the secind day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..."

THen all the second graders stood up. "Two turtle doves!"

Then Page and Mandy went back to 1st graders. "And a partridge in a pear tree!"

And so on and so forth. Each grade did a day.

But when Page and Mandy got to the 10th graders.

All was silent.

But the song went on, and everytime it came to the 10th graders, it was silent.

"Well, that was fun." Mandy said.

"And look!" Page exclaimed. "There's the Polar Express!"

Then a bunch of seniors came back through the double doors with their cheap train.

"First stop!" The conductor yelled. "Freshmanville!"

"Finally. I couldn't wait to get off that train." Megan said.

"Megan. Look around you. You still don't believe in Santa?" Page asked.

"Nope!" Megan said.

"Well, maybe a freshman game will help?" Mandy suggested. "Let's bring out the trees."

"That's you guys." Sam told Kagome, Inuyasha, and Koga. "Now remember everything I told you."

"Right." Kagome said as she, Inuyasha, and Koga all walked out onto the gym floor with a few other kids.

"The name of the game is tree trim." Page said.

"We will play music, and while the music is playing, the kids need to decorate the person who is their tree." Mandy said.

"Once the music stops, yu need to stop decorating." Page said.

"Ready? Set? Go!" Mandy yelled.

Then music started to play, and the lower school kids started throwing decorations all over the freshmen who were supposed to be trees.

The freshmen who were trees, were dress in green t-shirts.

Inuyasha was standing still, just like Sam told him. But it was hard. These kids were throwing stuff all over him. He really want to just tear all the junk off. He was covered with string, sparkles, paper, and other junk. Inuyasha started to growl.

Koga didn't look like he was having much fun either. He wasn't a kid person. He just wasn't. So why was he doing this again?

Kagome, on the other hand,looked like she was having the time of her life. She loved kids. They were so much fun. She was also cover in sparkles, and little paper snowflakes that had a loop of string holding tied around them. Then there was a paper chain. It was around Kagome's neck and waist, all the way down to her feet.

Then the music stopped.

Thank GOD! Inuyasha and Koga both thought.

Then Page and Mandy came around looking at the freshmen.

"OK. Now to decide who the winner is, whoever gets the loudest applause wins." Page said.

Then Page and Mandy came to the first tree. It was Koga.

Everyone cheered.

Then Page and Mandy came to the second tree. It was Kagome.

Everyone cheered a little louder.

Then Mandy and Page came to the third and last tree. It was Inuyasha.

Everyone cheered the loudest.

"The winner is Room 203 and Inuyasha!" Many exclaimed.

Inuyasha couldn't believe it. He was the winner? Did he get anything?

Sarah was down at the bottom of the bleachers again. When was she ever gonna get to see a sight like this again? They wouldn't even do this on the show!

So Sarah took a few pictures of Iuyasha, Kagome, and Koga (mostly of Koga).

"And now we have a gift from the Freshman class." Page said.

"What's that Page?" Mandy asked.

"The freshmen have chosen someone from their grade to sing a Christmas song." Page said.

"Really? Who?" Mandy asked.

"Sam Sherlock! Please come back out here!" Page exclaimed.

"What?!" Sam yelled.

"I thought I was only singing 'I'm Your Angel?" Sam asked.

"You were chosen randomly to sing a Christmas song." Bradey said.

"But, I don't know what to sing!" Sam yelled. "I can't go out there unprepared."

"Sure you can. Just pick any song." Bradey said.

Now Sam had to think. Then she looked at Bradey. "OK. But I need you to get Sarah out of the audience and get Eric out there."

"Got-it." Bradey said.

"Thanks Bradey." Sam said as she walked out onto the gym floor. But while Sam was walking out onto the floor, she snapped her fingers, and a drum set, bass guitar, and electric guitar appeared on the stage in front of the tree.

Sarah came down from in the audience and Eric walked out on the gym floor to see what Sam was doing.

"OK guys. We're doing My Revolution on stage. Everythings there." Sam said.

"O.......K......." Eric said. "But won't someone get suspicious?"

"Just do it!" Sarah exclaimed. "How many chances are we gonna get to play on front of an audience?!"

"Then it's settled." Sam said. "Now let's get up there."

Sarah, Eric, and Sam all walked onto the stage then and went to their instruments. Eric went to the bass, Sam went to the electric guitar, and Sarah went to the drums. Then Sam set up her microphone.

"Hey everyone. Umm... I'm glad I was chosen to sing this song, and I hope you enjoy it."

Sam and Eric and Sarah started to play music as Sam started to sing.

Learning to turn the outside inside out

Having the courage to find what life is all about

Loving so purely can surely melt a frozen heart

Knowing sometimes all over's the perfect place to start

Welcome to my revolution

Lucky you, lucky me

The way we were meant to be

This is my one resolution and I make it with no fear

To live, to love today

'Cause it'a a brand new year

Seeing the world through rose-colored eyes

Yeah, this is my one big chance and I'm gonna take it twice

With the past down below, I know love lifted me up here

So I'll take a breath, kiss the sky, toll the bell

'Cause it's a brand new year

Welcome to my revolution

Lucky you, lucky me

The way we were meant to be

This is my one resolution and I make it with no fear

To live, to love today

'Cause it'a a brand new year

Resilently reclaiming me

Refining my recovery

Untwist my fate, unlock the gate

Let's make a little noise

'Cause it's a brand new year

Oh, welcome to my revolution

Lucky you, lucky me

The way we were meant to be

This is my one resolution and I make it with no fear

To live, to love today

Welcome to my revolution

Lucky you, lucky me

The way we were meant to be

This is my one resolution and I make it with no fear

To live, to love today

'Cause it'a a brand new year

Everyone cheered, especially the freshmen. Sam, Eric, and Sarah all took a bow and let everyone cheer for them.
