A/N: Chapter 3! I love this story thing, it's soo, fun!
Disclaimer: I don't own Doctor Who
Characters: Theta and Koschei
Song: It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
It's the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you "Be of good cheer"
It's the most wonderful time of the year
It's the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings and gay happy meetings
When friends come to call
It's the hap- happiest season of all
Theta sat under the tree, away from all the ruckus of his fellow classmates. He pulled his book out, hoping for a bit a peace. It was really a fascinating book, all about the bizarre traditions of one of his favorite planets; Earth. He had just finished reading about a silly holiday called Halloween when his best friend interrupted him.
"Hey Thete," Koschei sat down next to him. "What are you reading now?" He tilted the book up so he could see the title, "The Fascinating Traditions and Rituals of Earth. Really?"
"It's interesting!"
"How is this interesting?" Koschei raised an eyebrow.
"Well, humans are so different from us, they have this one holiday called Easter where they hide these things called eggs. Which is really weird because it's supposed to celebrate the resurrection of their God. So all I've been able to come up with is that their God is scared of eggs or something. I haven't figured out how this bunny thing connects though." He showed Koschei a picture of a giant fluffy thing labeled 'Easter Bunny'.
"Well,"
"But that's not the best one!"
"I don't think any of them are good Theta."
"Well they have this one holiday," Theta flipped through the book to the pages he's read several times over, "called Christmas. It's supposed to be fantastic! Everyone is happy and the kids all smile. People are kind, and families come together and they eat loads of food!" Koschei looked at the pictures, one showed several happy faces, with a large feast and a giant tree covered in lights.
"What's this one for?"
"This celebrates the birth of their God coming to them as a human."
"Why would a God want to be a human?"
"To connect with them, I haven't done much research on that yet, but that's what I get from it." Koschei looked at all the pictures.
"Why all the lights?"
"It's a tradition, a long time ago they didn't have lights so they lit candles so that Santa Claus can find them."
"Santa who?"
"Santa Claus, he's this big cheery guy who comes in your house and brings gifts!"
"Sounds creepy." Theta shrugged.
"A bit"
"So is Santa their god?"
"No. Their God is called Jesus."
"That's similar to the name Gesuius"
"Maybe Jesus was a Time Lord."
"Ok, well why do they have a tree?" Theta sighed, he was really starting to wish he hadn't of said anything. He probably should have found a better hiding place, but he had to admit this is the closest he'd ever gotten Koschei interested in Earth.
"It seems to do with life or something, I don't know. It wasn't really explained." He looked up at Koschei.
"You know what I think?"
"What?"
"Humans are weird."
"Well they do have some weird beliefs, like a plant that makes people kiss."
"What?"
"Yea, it's called mistletoe."
"Humans are so weird!" Koschei shook his head.
"No, they're fascinating."
"Whatever, I came to tell you Ushas looking for you." Theta's eyes widened.
"What? Why?" Koschei shrugged.
"Probably because she found out about Athryk."
"Well, I guess I better go hide."
"Maybe you can tell her about the mistytoes."
"MISTLETOE!" Theta shouted running off. Koschei laughed and picked up the book Theta had left. The people did look extremely happy. He noticed it was a thick book, humans had tons of holidays. They only had two and they weren't as complicated as these. He shook his head at Theta's weird obsession.
"Human's are so, so strange." He whispered.
"KOSCHEI!" He stiffened as he heard Ushas calling him. He shoved the book in his pocket and fled.
So, one more down! I hope you guys liked it, and remember! Suggestions!
