Chapter 13; The Hunters Holiday Special. Santa S.O.S?:

The next several months were spent between part time jobs, hunting, school, and senshi business. It was now december. The Hunters were all giggling and laughing when they got into a massive snowball war. Kinai was laughing when he tackled his sister into a large snow bank. If someone told him a year ago he would be living with a female counterpart as her brother with his own partner just his colors reversed and be much happier in his new dimension than his old one he wouldn't believe them.

A few hours of playing around in the snow later Takato and Tagiru split off from the group to go do some christmas shopping. Takato only had Kinai, Veemon, Mikey, and Ryouma's gifts to buy. She kept the candy she bought in subspace to keep Veemon, Guilmon, and BlackGuilmon out of it. Tagiru only had Gumdramon, Davis, and Jun left to buy for. She chose to go shopping with her best friend.

The two were looking through some different DVD's since Kinai devloped a love of supernatural movies. His words were "Anything but zombies I like." So Takato and Tagiru were talking the pros and cons of the movie Blood: The Last Vampire since Kinai didn't have that movie in his collection. Takato saw her mom walking over to where she was. "Hi sweetie, hi Tagiru. Finishing up your christmas shopping? I have been trying to find a copy of the newest season of Supernatural for Kinai." Takato giggled, "Two aisles down fifth shelf from the top is where you want to look mom. I considered it before deciding on finding a movie I know he wanted."

Once Takato got the Uverworld and Psychic Lover albums for Mikey, Blood: The Last Vampire for Kinai, CSI:Miami for Veemon, and a box set of Neon Genesis Evangellion for Ryouma the two girls placed their purchases in subspace. Tagiru was talking about the different things her family did for the holidays. "Every year my parents and I would go caroling on Christmas eve. My dad even wore this deer hunting hat with reindeer antlers on it and he sang 'Grandma Got Ran Over By A Reindeer'. Gods was it funny. One year we went to the park and made a huge snowman. We dressed it up like Superman. Cape and all." Takato laughed. "My dad does cinnamon rolls and this really good mish mash of different breakfast food. Scrambled eggs, hashbrowns, sausage, and bacon mixed together. Dear Selene that makes the holiday worth it. Plus we'd all be playing around in our pajamas. It's a very fun thing. One year we had a small conga line going."

Zordon was finishing up some work before checking on something. He saw that the items he ordered came in. He wrapped up each item and labeled them accordingly. He hoped his 'kids' liked what he had for them. An alarm went off and he saw a brigade of Devimon led by an old Bagra Army member Laylamon attacking the North Pole. He sighed. The Hunters would be having kittens at this mission. On christmas eve no less.

Thirty minutes later all the Hunters that worked directly with The Silver Guardians were shell shocked. "Your going to teleport us where?!" Sam asked in surprise. None of them expected that a. Laylamon would come back. Or b. they would literally have to save christmas. Takato asked, "Can our planetary powers work there? And will our digivices work properly?' Zordon said, "Your planetary powers will work fine. Digivolution will be limited. You won't have much energy to work with though. It's just how the North Pole is."

The Hunters teleported to the North pole and had to hide in some nearby igloos to avoid being seen. Takato suggested that they handle this like rangers should. And they did. Exactly like the rangers that came before them did. Hurling snowballs, tying up the evil digimon, they even helped Santa Clause bag up the last of the presents for the night.

The Hunters went to the community center where they saw Zordon and Hidaeki dressed up as Santa and one of his reindeer. Nene giggled, "Those two are in their element." Ewan said, "No kidding sis. But I have to admit it's a cool thing to see." Angie said, "Amen to that. I love this time of year." Ren replied, "Same here Angie. Mainly cause of the snow and the silly things my family does on christmas."

The hunters exchanged christmas presents. Kinai and Takato agreed to open the present they had for eachother at home on christmas morning. Ren got: A box set of the Naruto manga from Airu, purple Skullcandy headphone from Ryouma, The new Digimon video game from Kinai, the Kamen Rider Dragon Knight box set from Mikey, A Death Note hoody from Tagiru, Vampire Diaries season 1 from Angie, Oliver and Company from Jeremy, A purple and dark grey hat from Christopher, An intricately made medallion with the Nemesis symbol on it from Takato, Three volumes of the Case Closed anime from Ewan, A t-shirt of Black Butler from Nene, A skateboard with demon decals from Davis, A copy of Bleach: Memories Of Nobody from Jun, An archery prcatice set from Kiichi, and a full art set from Sam.

Needless to say that by the end of the party the Hunter went home feeling much happier and a little tired. Kinai and Takato walked home and had an amazing dinner with their family. That night as the Hunters all slept Santa came to each house. However he wasn't the only one. Zordon went to their homes as well and left a gift for each of his kids.

The next morning Takato and Kinai were having the time of their lives with opening christmas presents. Both laughing uproarously when Guilmon and BlackGuilmon both had bow from some of the gifts stuck on their ears and heads. Takato loved the necklace her brother got for her and Kinai in turn loved the movie. They both saw there were still two gifts under the tree. There was an envelope on top of the gifts with their names. They envelopes contained 150 dollars and three fifty dollar gift cards to their favorite stores. Inside the gift was a card that said, To my kids on Christmas. From, Zordon. Inside Takato's gift was a beautiful white dress that looked like a modern version of her princess dress and a pair of pretty silver and moonstone barrettes. Inside Kinai's was a red denim jacket and a voucher that was for a two year subscription for a motocross magazine Kinai liked.

Meeting up with the other Hunters the Matsuki siblings found the others had gifts similar to them. Mikey had a Bleach sweatshirt and a copy of every Bleach movie. Airu had a yellow-orange dress and the Ouran High School Host Club anime box set. Ren had a Bon Jovi Greatest Hits CD and a Leather jacket he had been eying for a long while. Ryouma had a copy of the Phantom Of The Opera movie and a Nightmare Before Christmas blanket. Angie had the Care Bears: Adventures In Care-A-Lot box set and a small collection of Care Bears. Nene had a copy of Ice Princess and a new pair of ice skates. Ewan got a copy of The Cat Returns and a set of Gundam Wing figurines. Jeremy got a copy Of Samurai Sentai Shikenger on DVD and a complete set of Naruto figurines. Christopher had Gundam Wing :The Complete Series on DVD and a copy of Dragon Ball Evolution. Tagiru had a Sports jacket and a copy of Rosario + Vampire on DVD. Kiichi had a full model train set and X-Men Evolution Seasons 1, 2, and 3 on DVD. Davis had a box set of Death Note and Eyeshield 21 manga volume 1-8. Jun had a yellow dress and a copy of Kiki's Delivery Service on DVD. Sam had a complete collection of Star Wars and Inuyasha on DVD. Jeremy said, "I feel a little guilty. Zordon did this for us but we didn't do anything for him on Christmas."

Angie said, "I agree. He didn't have to do this but I fell like I should do something in return." Mikey said, "What could we do though? Most stores are closed for the holiday." Takato said, "I have an idea."

A little over an hour later the Hunters made their way to Zordon's home. Kiichi rang the bell. Inside Clockmon asked, "Sir are you expecting anyone?" Zordon replied, "Not really. But I suppose it doesn't hurt to see who it is." When Zordon and Clockmon opened the door they got a very heartwarming surprise.

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Give her a dolly that laughs and cries

One that will open and shut her eyes

Hear the bells of christmas calling

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa la la la la la la la la la

When the Hunters finished their song Zordon chuckled and invited them inside. Each of them all agreed that they were greatful for the gift he gave them. So they spent time that afternoon making this christams a special one. At the end of the day the Hunter returned to their families in a very happy mood. All in all it was a very fun holiday. One that the Hunters knew would stay with them for a good long while.
