Medusa sat, looking at the fire for a bit, waiting for the next spirit. What could be happening at this moment that would cause her to have a change of heart? Just then, the fire grew bright, and out of it came a floating, glowing orb, that suddenly grew into a young woman that looked like an angel.

"Medusa Gorgon, greetings. I am the ghost of Christmas Present. I am here to show you what is going on this very moment."

"I doubt this will change anything..."

"Don't be so quick doubt my powers. Now, enough talk. It is time to depart." She said offering her hand.

"Well it's not like this night can get any more weird..." Medusa said taking the angel by the hand. They then appeared outside the house.

"Huh? Wait, where's Crona? That worthless child..."

"You want to know where he is?"

"Yes, take me to him this instant!"

"Very well."

They suddenly flashed to Maka's apartment, where a big party was taking place. All the kids were laughing, partying, dancing, and having a great time. At the couch where the TV was, they were exchanging gifts. This was where Crona was, on the couch with Maka.

"So, this is where my ungreatful son is hiding. He has a punishment coming his way."

"Ungreatful? If you were shoveling snow in freezing cold weather at the dead of night, wouldn't you want to escape to a warm loving home that was having a party?"

"Well...I don't know but...he still disobeyed me."

The spirit slapped Medusa in the face.

"OW! Hey! What was that for!?"

"No child wants to spend their christmas shoveling snow!"

"Yeah well..."

Maka was talking to Crona on the couch. She was dressed in a christmas sweater.

"See Crona? I knew you would have fun!"

"Yes M-Maka...thanks for convincing me...but my mother's going to be mad..."

"Don't worry, it's Christmas! Here."

Maka handed Crona a wrapped gift.

"What's this?"

"It's a Christmas present silly! Don't you ever get presents on Christmas?"

"No...my mother and I never celebrate it..."

"Well it's about time you did! Open it!"

"Uh okay..."

Crona slowly unwrapped the gift and opened the box. Inside was a black sweater, white scarf, and black snow pants and boots. Also included was a black beanie with the white Lord Death symbol on it.

"You must be freezing walking around wearing nothing but your cloak, so I took the liberty of buying you a winter outfit! Merry Christmas!"

"Wow...th-thanks Maka. But I don't have anything for you!"

"It's okay. I'm just glad you decided to come over."

Maka and Crona didn't notice that Patty was hanging a mistletoe over them. Crona looked up.

"Huh? M-Maka what is that?"

Maka smiled and blushed, then reached over, and kissed him on the cheek. This made his face incredibly red.

"M-Maka..." Crona said bashfully smiling and looking away.

"Geez...I've never seen him that happy..." said Medusa.

"Well naturally, he's surrounded by people that love and care for him."

"But I..."

"Well do you ever tell him that?"

"No...I guess I don't...Spirit, I've had enough of this. Take me someplace else."

"Very well."

They suddenly teleported outside, where Stein was walking away with Marie.

"You know, you don't have to spend your night alone, you can have dinner with me and the other Death Scythes."

"That's quite alright Marie. I don't feel right there."

"It wouldn't be like that...wait...you didn't invite Medusa over to dinner again, did you?"

"Maybe..."

"Gosh darn it Stein! Why do you keep inviting that witch to have dinner with you? You know she's bad news!"

"Hmph. I always hated her." said Medusa.

"I know but...I always think she must be lonely living by herself with Crona...and it must be hard..."

"Huh?" asked Medusa.

"I don't know Marie...I guess you could say that...well...I know she may seem cold hearted and cruel but deep down I think she has the soul of someone decent and kind. I guess you could say...I believe in her."

"He...believes in me? I didn't think Stein...cared for me that much."

"Oh he indeed cares for you alot. More than you know. You should have taken him up on his offer."

"Yeah...maybe I should have..."

"Well, see you later Stein. That seat is still available for you." said Marie.

"Yeah, I know."

Stein went inside his house, alone.

"And he spent his night alone."

"I get it Ghost. I'm a jerk he doesn't want to have dinner with that hag but wants to have dinner with me."

"Yes, but there is something else we need to look at." The Spirit said taking Medusa by the hand. They suddenly appeared in Lady Arachne's chamber.

"What are we doing here?" asked Medusa.

Mosquito walked up to Arachne.

"My lady, us and the henchmen have put together a little celebration. Come and join us."

"That is quite alright. I'm comfortable up here."

"Are you still expecting your sister to call you? You know that is rather unlikely, and I know you're not very fond of her, so why even-"

"My reasons are my own! You wouldn't understand at all. Now begone!"

"Yes my lady!" Mosquito said quickly leaving.

"Why does my sister want me to call her so bad?"

"You are the only family she has, and secretly she wishes you would at least talk to her once in awhile."

"Huh...I thought my sister despised me...well I don't know...she was always the smart and successful one."

"Yes, but she always idolized you. You were the more popular and pretty one, while she thought she was nerdy and geeky."

"I...had no idea..."

"Yeah well now you do." The spirit said taking her by the hand. They were back at the house.

"Huh. I must admit. You really showed me what I have become."

"Thank me not, for next you will be visted by final Spirit. The thing that people fear most. The Ghost of Christmas Future."

The Spirit then vanished, leaving Medusa alone to wait for the final spirit.
