The Seventh Day of Christmas

Snow continued to fall the very next morning. Dash looked out side. He saw cars trying to move along the slippery road. He saw neighbors shoveling their driveways and walkways. Dash looked at his own driveway and saw his father shoveling.

Bob dug into a large chunk of snow and shoveled it out on to the lawn. Dash continued to watch his dad. Finally, Bob was finished. The Parr family driveway and walk was clean and clear. Bob went into the garage and put his shovel away. Dash ran down the stairs to greet his father.

"Nice job dad. Other driveways are still covered in snow. Some folks have given up already." he said.

Bob smiled and rubbed his son's hair. "You know, one should not be working at a time like this." said Bob. "The snow is beautiful. The atmosphere is elegant."

Suddenly, a thought struck Violet. "I know! Today, why not play in the snow?"

"How?" wondered Dash with a perplexed look.

Helen grinned. "Honey, there is so much we can do. Go skiing, sledding, have snowball fights, make snowmen. . ."

Dash was convinced enough. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!!!"

Bob, Helen, Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack got dressed into some warm clothes, then made their way to the car. Bob placed an old sled and even a snowboard in the trunk. Then, he drove it out of the garage and on to the driveway.

The drive was a half an hour long. Soon, Bob drove up to a wide open area of snow. There were two small hills and one large one, about the size of a house. Later, another car drove up, two people stepped out of the car.

"Yo Bob, Helen, Vi, Speedo, Jack-Jack."

It was Lucius. He went up to the family and shook hands with them. Then, a very small woman walked up to them.

"Dahlings, just because I'm short, doesn't mean I don't exist."

The family smiled and greeted Edna Mode as well. After that, Bob went to retrieve their stuff from the trunk. He placed the sled and snowboard on the snow. Everyone made their way to the vast open of snow.

First, they all had a snowball fight. It was Bob, Dash and Frozone versus Helen and Violet. Edna did not want to participate, so she decided to take care of Jack-Jack and watch.

First, the five Supers constructed two forts, one for Bob's team, another for the other. With Bob's strength, Dash's speed, and Lucius's ice powers, they created two of the most indestructible snow forts of all. The two teams went behind their own forts.

Helen and Vi might have been out numbered, and it might been guys vs girls. However, this snowball fight turned out to be a pretty even match.

First, Bob hurled giant snowballs at the other team. They were about the size of boulders. Dash rapidly threw small snowballs at them. And Lucius blasted his ice beam at the other team.

The two females' strategy was simply this. Violet's force field would be used as the first line of defense, blocking any and all ice particles projected at her and her mother. The force field was not only used as a shield, but a distraction. All the while, Helen had been scooping and rolling an abundant amount of snowballs. When the guys ceased their fire, Violet's and Helen's offensive plan was put into action. Helen clustered all of the snowballs together, wrapped her arms around them, and flung it to the opposing team.

"INCOMING!!!" shouted Dash, pointing up at the sky.

The snowballs rained down on the male Supers. Vi and Helen laughed hysterically. All of the sudden, a large clump of snow hit Helen in the face, she fell backwards and landed in the snow. Violet turned around, but too late. A large snowball smacked the front of her face. She landed right next to her mom. The two got up and brushed the snow off of their face and body.

"Dash, no throwing snowballs in the face." Helen chastised, staring at the young boy.

A second of silence followed. After that, came laughter. Bob, Helen, Violet, Dash, and Lucius resumed their snowball fight, without Super Powers.

Meanwhile, Edna grew bored of watching the five pelt each other with snowballs. She stood up and picked up Jack-Jack.

"Gosh dahling, I grow tired of this, insignificant snowball fight. Come on little one. Let's have some fun."

Edna carried the baby over to the sled and placed him on it. She then pulled Jack-Jack around. The little baby was enjoying his little ride as he cooed and laughed along the way. Edna smiled at Jack-Jack's reaction. She then pulled the sled up a tiny hill. She sat on the sled with Jack-Jack and held on to him tight.

"Ready dahling?" Edna asked. Jack-Jack joyfully clapped his hands. "Very well. One. . .two. . .three."

Edna and Jack-Jack rode the sled down the small hill. Edna held on to the baby with a firm grasp. Jack-Jack laughed in excitement and exhilaration. Finally, the sled decelerated to a stop.

"Wasn't that fun dahling?"

Jack-Jack laughed and clapped cheerfully.

Bob took the snowboard and made his way up the really huge hill. Lucius followed after him.

"Bob, aren't you a little. . . you know. . ."

Bob just laughed. "Nonsense old buddy. I can do this. Back in the day, I used to perform cool moves like you."

Lucius smacked his head in annoyance. Finally, the two reached the top. Bob strapped the snowboard to his feet. Lucius put his Frozone boots on. Both gazed down the hill. It was pretty steep, with some small hills to get a little elevation.

"Okay, look out below!" said Bob.

Bob made his way down the hill. Lucius just watched. Bob accelerated down the slope. He was going so fast, he lost control of his board. It wasn't long before Bob fell flat on his face. He rolled down the slope until he reached the bottom.

"Amateur." sighed Lucius, shaking his head.

He jumped off, and two silver ice skis popped from his Frozone boots. He landed on the downslope and began to ski his way down. Lucius decided that the steep hill wasn't fun enough. He discharged his ice beam from his hand and created a little ice ramp. He jumped off of it and performed many tricks and spins in the air. Lucius then formed another ice ramp with his beam of ice. Once he launched off of theat, his skates converted to his ice disk. Lucius then glided down the rest of the slope. He stopped right next to a dumbfounded Bob.

"Bob, if it's from you, then it is not cool. If it's from me, then it is cool. Got it?"

Meanwhile, Helen was helping the kids make a snowman. She rolled a huge chunk of snow into a base. Violet rolled out a middle section. Dash rolled the head. Violet placed the middle section on the base and Dash placed the head on top. Dash collected stones and placed them on the snowman's face. Violet took off of her scarf and wrapped it around its neck.

"It looks good kids." commented Helen.

"Thanks mom." recited the two in unison.

Finally, the sun started to set. The whole family, Lucius and Edna all felt exhausted. After loading the stuff into the car, they all left. Helen, Vi, Dash, and Jack-Jack began to fall asleep as the sun disappeared behind the horizon.
