Author's Note: To those wondering why I have not updated this story is because I've been trying to think of a perfect Christmas song to use. AND I FOUND ONE JUST IN TIME!
This song comes from one of my favorite version of a Christmas Carol. A Muppet Christmas Carol.
This is set in the Relativity/Gem Kids, in which Steven is taking the kid gems home on the night of Christmas Eve after setting up plans for a big Christmas party for the Pine Twins.
One More Sleep 'Til Christmas.
"Pearl don't worry Ford is going to love that gift," smiled Steven as he walked out of the mall with gems in tow.
"Oh I don't know," Pearl fidgeted over the item in her shopping bag. "You really think he will like it?"
"Well I know Stanly is going to love my gift," grinned Amethyst showing off the big box titled, 'The Big Bag of Practical Jokes' "Oh yeah we are going to have so much fun."
"Amethyst you only bought that so you and Stanly could do some yuletide pranking."
Amethyst stared at Pearl with a blank expression, "And your point is?"
Garnet rolled all three of her eyes as the two continued to bicker as she carried two boxes on each hand.
Steven chuckled as he patted Pearl and Amethyst's head instantly stopping the argument.
"Now come on girls it's Christmas Eve and we got to head home and finish wrapping any present we missed."
"We also don't want Santa to skip us," spoke Garnet.
The two quickly stood by Steven and Garnet as they started walking home.
Steven gazed at the snow coming down and the Christmas lights on every house. He just loves this time of year.
Steven: There's magic in the air this evening, magic in the air.
Amethyst walked to a snow pile and an idea popped in her head along with a sly grin.
The world is at her best, you know when people love and care.
Pearl came upon a snowman with its carrot nose attached to the forehead. Pearl casually remove the carrot and placed it correctly where the nose should be and smiled.
The promise of excitement is one the night will keep. After all, there's only one more sleep 'till Christmas.
Pearl then felt a shadow behind her, she turned around seeing Amethyst turned into a construction loader and dumped a large pile of snow on her covering her.
"Wow you look just like your snow pal here, P," grinned Amethyst.
In rage Pearl leaped out of the snow and starting to chase Amethyst while Garnet calmly followed as Steven chuckled.
Steven: The world has got a smile today the world has got a glow.
Amethyst managed to lose Pearl as she hid behind a tree.
There's no such thing as strangers when a stranger says hello.
"Hello." Amethyst's eyes widen as she looked up and was then pelted with a barrage of snowballs by Pearl sitting on a branch.
And everyone is family we're having so much fun. After all, there's only one more sleep 'till Christmas.
Amethyst poked her head out of the snow pile grinning at pearl, "Good shot, P!"
Pearl chuckled but then a snowball hit her face causing her to fall on Amethyst. They turned seeing Garnet holding another snowball.
"Had enough?" she asked with a grin.
Pearl and Amethyst quickly nodded their heads.
Suddenly all three of them where hit with snow balls, all three turned seeing Steven with an arm full of snowballs.
"What, can't I join in?"
The girls smiled as they started to team up against their guardian.
It took a little while but they managed to gang up on him almost covering him with snow. All four of them shared a laugh as they continued their journey home.
Steven: 'Tis the season to be jolly and joyous.
With a burst of pleasure we feel it arrive.
It's a season when the saints can employ us to spread the news about peace and keep love alive.
Then they heard laughter coming from the bushes. They took a peek and saw some Gnomes skating on a frozen lake.
"Oh look at that, it seems the gnomes have their own holiday party," smiled Steven as they watched them skate.
Jeff the leader tried to make a fancy skating move, only for him to slip and head right to a tree.
Shmebulock on the other hand did a perfect figure eight while saying "Shmebulock."
Steven smiled and decided to join in the fun. He went to the frozen lake and started skate very well like he did it all his like.
The Gnomes cheered at the display as Steven bowed and went back to the girls.
"Steven you cheated," replied Pearl. "You used your levitation."
Steven blushed in embarrassment as he rubbed the back of his neck, "Well I could not help myself and besides I did not bring my skates."
Then Garnet started to skate on the ice showing off great talent that 'if she was in a skating competition' would give her a gold meddle for it.
After that the Gnomes cheered loudly for her then when they did for Steven.
Garnet bowed and skated back to the others.
"Okay Garnet, I get it your better then me," smiled Steven.
"I'm just that good," said Garnet with a small smile.
After saying goodbye to the Gnomes, Steven and the Gems moved on, soon they reached home.
Steven: There's something in the wind today that's good for everyone.
Yes, faith is in our hearts today we're shining like the sun and everyone can feel it the feeling's running deep.
After all there's only one more sleep to Christmas.
Steven opened the doors allowing the Gems to go in first to start wrapping up the presents for their friends as Steven looked up at the night sky as snow continued to fall.
Steven: After all, there's only one more sleep 'till Christmas Day.
Steven smiled as a shooting star passed by the moon. Then he went back inside to assist in the wrapping for the holiday.
The End.
Author's Note, I hope everyone has a Happy holiday, such as Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and also a Merry Christmas to all of you! Oh and a Happy New Year!
