Hey, Jesse again. Sorry for the delay. Sartorious took..uhmm.. "precautions" to make sure Bastion remembered his lines. Not pretty. Anyway, Chazz, Zane, and Jaden were playing Duel Monsters in the snow (I really have no clue why) when Bastion came up to them. He tapped Chazz on the shoulder.
"May I have a word with you?" Bastion asked.
"Yeah, yeah," Chazz replied. "But it'll cost you..."
Bastion handed Chazz a dollar.
"I love the sound of dollars," Chazz smiled. "Money, money, money. Okay, step into my office."
Chazz lead Bastion to a wooden stand that said...Help $1. The Doctor is out.
Chazz crossed out the word "out" and put "in."
"What's the problem, brainiac?" Chazz asked.
"I'm scared of Christmas," Bastion said.
"Freak! How can you be afraid of Christmas?!"
"That's why I came to you, oh smart one!"
"Oh yeah," Chazz sweatdropped. "I think you have pantophobia."
"What is that?" Bastion asked.
"The fear of everything. Don't you know that, Einstein?"
There was a slight pause, until Bastion yelled...
"THAT'S IT!"
His yell caused Chazz to fall back into the snow.
Bastion went to go help him up.
"Let go of me!" Chazz brushed himself off and left.
Bastion called, "THANK YOU!"
Then, he saw Ruby come by with Winged Kuriboh. Kuriboh balanced a box of decorations on his head. Bastion followed them to see what was going on.
They lead him to my house. They entered my yard and went to Ruby's little dog house I made her. Mom doesn't want her in the house you know. Anyway, Bastion watched the two spirits decorate the house.
"What is going on?" he asked.
Ruby handed him a flyer. He read it.
"Lights and display contest?! DUEL SPIRITS HAVE GONE COMMERCIAL!"
Poor Bastion. Even Duel Spirits celebrate Christmas. Will Bastion ever find Christmas' true meaning? We'll find out next time! Oh, and if you are wondering why Bastion can see Ruby and Kuriboh, I'm just as lost as you are.
