A small town full of snow was drowsily waking from it's sleep. It was morning and townspeople were getting ready for the day's ordeals. Suddenly the sky opened and dropped a little bunch of people and a horrendously cute rabbit like thing on to the snowy ground. And they just happened to land on top of each other. "Puu, we have arrived to the next country," Mokona chirped happily. But it seemed like someone was missing.
"Kuro-tan! Where are you, Kuro-tan?" Fay looked around while patting the soft, dark and surprisingly warm ground beneath him. The children also got worried.
"Kurogane-san? Where are you?" they called for their older companion.
"We couldn't have left him in to the last country, could we?" Sakura asked anxiously. Fay just smiled and tapped the ground beneath him until it started to growl malevontly.
"Get off me," Kurogane barked underneath the group.
"Oh, there you are, Kuro-puu. You got us worried," Fay smiled and got up relatively slow as the children shot up almost immediately hearing the ninja's voice.
"And you, of course, had no idea of my whereabouts, did you, mage?!" the ninja snarled while himself got up.
"Do you feel the presence of Sakura-hime's feather, Mokona?" Syaoran asked.
"Hmm, it's very faint but Mokona can definitely feel the feather!" the fluffy white thing answered.
"So we're staying here for a while. We might as well look what kind of country we landed in, don't you think, Kuro-rin?"
"Hnn."
"It's kind of cold here with all of this snow..." Sakura said, rubbing her arms to feel warmer. Syaoran started to take his cape off but Fay was quicker: the blonde had already put his white coat on Sakura, assuring that the rest of his clothes were warm enough. The dimension travellers walked through the town, occasionally stopping to look at the shop windows. Of course, they had to get clothes – in which people wouldn't look at them any more weirdly – but before that, they would have to get some money. So they did the usual: they sold their old clothes from the different countries they had visited.

After a while of wondering aimlessly around, they found a nice little boutique in the centre of the town. It was a cozy little shop and fortunately for them, they were able to sell their old clothes there and gained a good deal of money. So, now that they were not so poor anymore, they bought their clothes, which were a lot like Fay's attire: thick, fluffy and warm. Kurogane was the only one to express deep dislike towards the clothes and strictly declined of wearing them. Though after ten minutes of the freezing open air he was forced either to wear the fluffy clothes or freeze. He chose, though slightly involuntarily, not to freeze. They also found a bookstore when they were looking for information about Sakura's feather, but unfortunately they found none. Syaoran on the other hand was lucky and found an archaeology book, which he described as 'super cool' and 'highly useful' even though Kurogane said that the thing looked older than the Dimension witch and was way too thick for it's own good. "It seems that Christmas is coming here. I even asked one person, and he said that today's the first of December," Syaoran told to his travelling companions in the book store.
"What's Christmas?" Sakura asked puzzled.
"Mokona knows, Mokona knows! People celebrate it in the world where Yuuko and the other Mokona are. That's when Santa Claus brings presents to good children like Mokona!" the white creature informed everyone proudly.
"What good child are you? You're definitely neither one of those, not good nor a kid," Kurogane muttered but everyone just ignored him.
"What do they celebrate this Christmas for, Syaoran-kun?" the blonde mage inquired.
"Well it's celebrated for the birth of the Christ – he's related to their religion – and it's also the celebration of light, because it's the darkest time of the year. And what Mokona said about the presents, is true too. Santa Claus comes to people's homes and gives presents to the children and sometimes to the adults too, in the evening of the 24th of December or on the following night, though that depends purely on the place. Then again, this is just a leg-"
"I would love to meet Santa Claus! He sounds like a really good person. Can we stay for the Christmas?" the princess begged from her friend. Then she looked the others with those big green eyes of hers and no one could deny anything from the sweet princess.
"Of course we can stay! Right, Kuro-puu, Syaoran-kun?"
"Whatever."
"Well then, I see no problem in staying here. There is a feather here too and I guess there's no harm taking a little vacation while looking for it", the brown haired boy answered to everyone.
"Yay! We're going to stay for the Christmas!" the white manju cheered. Because they chose to stay there for Christmas, they obviously needed a place to stay in. No one would sleep outside when it was so cold and snowy. With a moment of negotiation, they decided to divide into two groups: Syaoran, Sakura and Mokona would look for a house from the right side of the town and Fay and Kurogane would look for it from the left side. They made a promise to meet each other in front of the bookstore after two hours.
After a while of searching, the older group found the perfect house for them. It had two floors and a quite nice frontyard. There was a kitchen, a livingroom, a housekeeping room and a bathroom on the first floor. On the next floor there were two bedrooms and a small toilet at the end of the corridor. The house just had one problem: they couldn't get the heating system on, so they had to live in a cold house for a few days.

In the evening the whole group was warming themselves in front of the fireplace in Kurogane and Fay's room. They had had a long day and they were all a bit tired. After Syaoran had told that children tend to write to Santa Claus a letter of what they want for Christmas, the princess and the manju started immediately talking about a wishlist that they all would send to Santa. Earlier, Syaoran had quietly told Fay and Kurogane that usually the parents buy the presents for the children and that the Santa Claus visiting, is just a neighbour or a hired person. "Moko-chan, what do you want for Christmas?" the fragile princess asked.
"Mokona would like to have some yummy, yummy sweets and yummy, yummy alcohol!"
"I don't think Kuro-daddy will allow you to drink anything, Mokona," Fay interrupted them.
"But we won't tell him, right?" Mokona said deviously.
"What about you, Syaoran-kun and Sakura-chan, what would you like for Christmas?" the blonde queried his 'adopted' children.
"Um, I don't actually want anything. I just want everyone to be happy and together!"
"I don't really need anything either."
"Oh, but there must be something you want, isn't there?" Fay pried them , smiling.
"Well, there is this cute Kero-plushie and this beautiful deck of cards that I saw in one shop's window..." the princess trailed off.
"And you Syaoran-kun, there must be something you would like, you are still a child after all."
"The archaeology book in the book store," the boy said more shyly than usual.
"Perhaps Santa Claus will bring them to you, if you're nice. Though, I don't see why he wouldn't bring them to you, you're always behaving like good children should. Even you, Mokona," Fay smiled to them. Then he looked at Kurogane and without using any words, told the ninja to follow him to the other room.
"What is it?" the black haired male asked from the other.
"I think we should give the children some good memories and have a real Christmas. We could give them presents and-"
"Ok, I got it. But is there... Is there anything you'd like?" the ninja sounded slightly unsure and a little blush could be seen on his face, if you looked closely enough.
"That's very sweet of you to ask, Kuro-sama," the blonde smiled at his lover.
"Well?"
"Hmm, perhaps you?" he smiled slyly and kissed Kurogane on the cheek.

A/N: Thanks for reading the first, proper chapter of the Tsubasa Advent Calendar! The theme for today was, of course, 'Wishlist'!

Enonyymi: Hyuu, it's the 1st of December and the end of our first chapter, which was mostly written by Punainenpuolukka!

Punainenpuolukka: I'm sorry if you didn't like it, but I was utterly bored while writing it.

Enonyymi: Don't be silly, of course they liked it! It was so cute! Right, people? You're being too critical.

Punainenpuolukka: And you're never critical, huh?

Enonyymi: ...Meh. Oh yeah, just that you all wouldn't wonder, all of our chapters WON'T be this long. This was so long only because it had a prologue-part in it too. And a HUGE apology for not posting this earlier, the A/N-part wasn't ready until 5 P.M (+ I had a French lesson, which lasted until 4.30 P.M). I hope you enjoyed this story!

Punainenpuolukka: Please do comment and review!
