Ani: Yes! Christmas! Winter! Break! *Faints*
Black: She pushed herself to the limit…*sweatdrops*
Ani: *wakes up* Okay! Let's get this over with so I could go back to my chocolate eating! *twinkles*
Black: Ani doesn't own anything except for Prism and etc.
Ani: Black! Do it properly! Good job on the not yelling part though
Eevee: Hey! Ani! What's-
Ani: OUT! *kicks Eevee out the window*
Eevee: Whoa!
"Oof!" Eevee said as she landed head first on the first floor after tripping on the stairs. Eevee stood upright and shook herself. "Stupid streamers." She muttered about the stranded green and red ribbons left on the stairs. She then heard a clanging sound coming from the kitchen. Suspicious, she went in.
"Holy-! What happened?!" Eevee said, bewildered. Couple weeks has passed since the last incident of mismatched dexholders, and already, there was another mess in the kitchen. Eevee looked around at the sticky dough substance on the walls like splattered paint and some on the ceiling with forks working its way down with the dough stretching from gravity. Smoke is rising from the oven, and Prism and Jolteon were coughing as Prism waved her hands to clear the smoke away. Jolteon managed to get the cookies out. "Aww…" Prism said as she looked at the result of her and Jolteon baking. "It got burned…"
Eevee continued watching the knives next to the door that was deeply embedded on the wall, as if expecting them to suddenly fall off like a regular scenario.
What regular scenario? There is no regular scenario!
Prism and Jolteon continued staring at the burnt cookies. Eevee guessed it was supposed to be Christmas trees. "Well, next." Jolteon said as Prism threw the batch away on the big pile of other burnt cookies that Eevee didn't realize was there until she turned around next to the door. "What the…" Eevee sweatdropped, looking at the enormous pile of cookies. "You're going to use up all our flour at this rate!"
"Not as much as sugar." Prism frowned as she inspected the sugar container, as if wondering how the five liter sugar container only had one gram left. Eevee just stared at Jolteon like he was at fault. Jolteon twitched. "What? It wasn't my fault…" he trailed off, adverting his gaze to the floor. "Yeah right!" Prism laughed. "Jolteon was the one who mixed the eggs in the wrong bowl. Not to mention to turn up the temperature of the oven higher for the first few batches."
"Hey, I thought the cookies will bake faster." Jolteon defended. Eevee sweatdropped again. T T
Has he not learned that lesson since the last past few years?
"And now we have a burnt oven thanks to Jolteon's thunder." Prism sighed as she glanced at the oven. That'll explain the still smoking black smoke coming out of it. Eevee sighed. "Besides baking cookies, hopefully you got the other stuff ready?" Eevee said. Prism nodded. "Pretty much." Prism looked at the walls that were adorned with red ribbons and gingerbread cookies. "We got the materials for the gingerbread making contest so everything's should go alright."
It was a tradition to have some sort of Christmas related contest on the Christmas party. Somehow, it was always sweets. This year, it was Vaporeon's turn to choose what contest, and she decided a gingerbread contest.
"Why a gingerbread contest?" Flareon huffed. Everyone turned to Vaporeon, who was munching on a gingerbread cookie. "What?" Vaporeon asked, mouth still full. I'm hungry!"
"I know." Jolteon said sheepishly as Eevee looked at the lopsided vanilla cake with uneven glops of red and green frosting on top, which was sitting on the table. "That isn't the most delicious looking cake you've seen, but hey! It worked better than cookies! It's not burnt…" Jolteon trailed off when Eevee lifted the cake to reveal a charcoal black bottom. Eevee turned to Prism and Jolteon with dark vertical lines across her head. Prism and Jolteon looked around and innocently whistled a jingle bells tune.
Eevee excused herself out of the kitchen and went to the living room. Eevee had to stop herself from screaming at the big pile of ribbons, bells, string of popcorn (string of popcorn?), wrapping paper, shiny wrapping paper, fluffy wrapping paper (is that even real?), ornaments, Flareon, Glaceon, and Vaporeon with the star on top. "Arceus, what happened?"
"Well you see," Vaporeon explained, as she was the only one able to talk in Eevee's direction. "Glaceon and Flareon were arguing on what to put on the tree, and end up being a tug and war and then some spinning and crashing and…" Vaporeon sweatdropped and laughed nervously. Eevee got the picture.
"Get off of me you oaf!" Glaceon muttered angrily at Flareon. "I will if she will," Flareon hissed at Glaceon, looking at Vaporeon. Vaporeon struggled. "I can't. I'm binded by the wrapping paper and stuff." Vaporeon complained as the bells jingle due to Vaporeon's struggle."
"Here, let me try to help." Eevee said. She tried to pry the wrapping paper and ribbons, but despite being made of paper, they were really hard to tear off. "What kind of wrapping paper is hard to tear off? That's the point of wrapping paper!" Eevee said. "I thought wrapping paper is to wrap with paper." Vaporeon blinked. Eevee ignored the comment and Glaceon and Flareon sighed. Jingle Jingle the bells made as Eevee shook them. "And these bells are starting to get annoying."
"Same with the star on my head." Vaporeon looked above her head where the star that was supposed to be on top of the tree is on the top of her head. Eevee used scratch at the wrapping paper. It didn't make a single tear.
Eevee flopped down next to the pile. "Nope. Give up."
"Oh come on!" Flareon complained. "I should be the one to complain." Glaceon said, frowning. "What's with the popcorn string anyway?" Eevee asked. "Isn't it something you put on your trees?" Vaporeon said. "I guess…"
"But I wanted to put candy canes of variety on it." Flareon said. "But we did that last year." Glaceon snapped. "And we got sticky goo over us and the living room as a present! Espeon nearly yelled our ears off!"
"Goes to show you how well she's good at lecturing during certain circumstances." Eevee muttered. "So? It's better and yummier than putting up cookies as ornaments." Flareon huffed indignantly. "Talk about old fashioned."
"Old fashioned my tail! It was a good idea!"
"But it's the most boringest one!"
"I could say the same thing with yours!"
"You're just jealous!"
"Who'll be jealous of you, you moron!"
"Watch your tongue!"
"Guys," Eevee said, sweatdropping. "Enough we the arguing, you're going to make the wrapping paper and ribbons constrict even more…"
"By the way, I prefer to put gingerbread man cookies on the tree instead." Vaporeon added. "To go along with the contest theme."
"That's a lot of ginger." Flareon said. And a lot of flour and milk and sugar either way Eevee thought. "Isn't ginger a bit too…spicy of some level?" Glaceon raised an eyebrow.
"I like the taste." Vaporeon defended. "Yes, congrats." Flareon muttered. "AND GET OFF OF ME!"
"Well it's not like I could." Vaporeon pouted. Eevee looked at Glaceon, or where Glaceon's voice is coming from. "What about your ice sculptures? It's been a while, and the 'Keep Out' sign is still there. You giving up or something?"
"That's really rude." Glaceon said. "Of course I didn't give up on ice sculpting. It's just that I'm doing a big project that is to be revealed at the Christmas party." Glaceon rolled her eyes. "Jeez, sorry." Eevee muttered. "You know," Vaporeon said. "I wonder how the playhouse is going along." Vaporeon said wistfully. "You mean that makeshift thingy where we all live with Sylveon as the babysitter before moving here with Pri?" Flareon said. "The one that's now inhabited with other Eeveelutions? The one that's in-"
"Shush!" Eevee shushed. "Why? I'm just trying to clear things up." Flareon said, fuming. "I know that." Eevee gritted her teeth. "But there's only one little 'playground' Vaporeon could be talking about."
"I actually said playhouse." Vaporeon intercepted. Eevee gave Vaporeon a 'So what? I don't care' look, before talking again. "Besides, we really don't need that to be recorded by bugs."
"Watch it." Flareon warned. "In about three seconds, Espeon's gonna-"
"What do you mean by bugs in the house?!" screeched a voice upstairs before a blur of purple rushed towards where Eevee and the wrapped ones are. Espeon panted a little from the intense hurtling while using physic to carry a spray bottle of bug spray. "Why do you have bug spray?" Vaporeon asked. "The venipedes aren't here."
Espeon growled at Eevee. "Told you." Flareon whispered, sweatdropping. Glaceon sighed. "I did the cleaning myself. If you're telling me that you doubt my detailed dusting and sweeping, I'm warning you…" Espeon's eyes narrows to silts as she growled at Eevee. "I don't mean bugs bugs, I mean camera spy bugs." Eevee sweatdropped, taking a step back. Espeon tense figure immediately loosened and Espeon has a happy face. "Oh good! And here I thought-*gasp*!" Espeon gasped in horror at the mess of wrapping paper and such. "Arceus!" Espeon screeched "What happened?!" she acted like there was a dead person in the room or something horrible like that.
"There was a bit of fighting, arguing, and tumbling." Flareon said. "And this is the result." Glaceon finished. "Result?! RESULT?!" Espeon screeched again. Eevee flinched at the high pitched voice. "This is outrageous! Despicable! You're ruining the floor I had worked so hard on cleaning!"
That was a true fact, for Espeon polished the floor for a mere two days. It was so clean, Prism and the others except for Espeon was skidding on the floor 24/7. "Is it that bad?" Vaporeon said meekly, wishing she could reach up and cover her ears.
"Bad?! BAD?!" Espeon said as if it were obvious. "Of COURSE it's bad! We must get ready for the Christmas party and don't get me started on the preparations for the tree-how can we in such a mess! Littered glasses! And-oh my Arceus! Popcorn crumbs?! What on Earth are you guys thinking with such a low and unruly idea!" Espeon continued to pace and inspect while ranting on and tsking from time to time. "You know," Eevee said lowly. "Despite you saying to not let you getting started on the prep, you already did."
"We must remove this mess immediately." Espeon said with such a serious tone, Eevee wondered if this is what Sapphire has to put up with her companion.
By companion, it's both ways, if you know what I mean.
"She makes it sound like popcorn is illegal or something." Vaporeon whispered glumly as Espeon ranted on about the popcorn. "She has a point there though." Flareon said. T T "Popcorn has no relevance to Christmas whatsoever."
"So how come people decorate it like that?" Vaporeon said. "Google it." Glaceon replied. Eevee noticed Espeon and wondered what she was doing when Eevee suddenly jerk in surprise. "HOLY MEW! WHY ARE YOU CARRYING A CHAINSAW OUT OF ALL THINGS?!"
"WHAT?!" Vaporeon, Flareon, and Glaceon said with wide eyes before all three struggling to crawl around to see Espeon. Eevee continued staring at Espeon with dark vertical lines going down her head and her eye twitched as Espeon walked with a chainsaw being transported by psychic.
"Hold on." Glaceon said, eyes still wide, since she was the one who could see Espeon at the moment. "You're not really going to kill us with that thing are you?!"
"Why would I want to do that?" Espeon said, frowning. "The blood is going to spill and cause even more mess!"
Eevee, despite the circumstances, sweatdropped. "Yeah, wrong thing to think about at this time."
The chainsaw started to turn. The trio turned over and Flareon was able to see. "Ahh!" Flareon screamed as she realized that the chainsaw was coming towards her. Prism suddenly entered the room. "I heard some screams and everythi-HOLY ARCEUS! WHAT THE-" Prism eyes widened and she screamed.
"Took you long enough." Eevee said.
Prism turned around with her heels and started to walk back towards the kitchen. "What are you doing?!" Eevee said, eyes nearly popping. "This is just a dream…just a dream…" Prism said shakily to herself while laughing nervously as her bangs covered her eyes. She entered the kitchen and Eevee could hear the door being closed shut with banging of nails and wood.
Eevee continued being dumbstruck by Prism's move as Vaporeon, who is now in seeing position, yelped at the chainsaw getting closer to her. "We're going to die!"
But then it turns out that Espeon expertly cut the wrapping paper, ribbons, etc. off.
Everyone sighed. "What?" Espeon blinked as she put away the chainsaw. "You're acting like you were on a near death experience."
"What could I say?" Flareon said. "It's true."
"So, about the tree," Glaceon went right back to the conversation before. "I vote for peppermints."
"Gingerbread man will be better…" Vaporeon voiced. "No, I think cookies." Flareon said. "How about berries?" Espeon suggested. "Holly berries, at least."
The quartet continued fretting about the tree decorations while Eevee turned around sighing. "As much as I like to say that arguing is getting overused, the fact that we're using a bunch of flour and sugar is also overused as well."
Christmas Party
"Okay, everything's ready!" Prism said cheerfully as she placed the star on top of the tree. "Let the party begin!"
"What happened earlier?" Jolteon asked Flareon. "I heard a bunch of screaming earlier and the sound of a chainsaw for some reason."
Flareon sweatdropped.
"Is the materials for the contest set?" Sylveon asked Leafeon. "Yep!" Leafeon said. "I set the tables in a line and got the materials on board!"
"That's wonderful and all." Glaceon said, but what does this have to do with my ice sculptures? I still don't see why we need to visit it."
"Because!" Umbreon said. "You said it was for the Christmas Party."
Glaceon glared at Umbreon, who looked away. "Let the contest begin!" Eevee said.
After a while
"Okay! Everyone's finished!" Prism announced as Flareon finished putting on the last topping. "Let's see who's best! And remember," Prism pointedly looked at Eevee. "No choosing for yourself."
"Let's go in evolution order, Prism last." Flareon said. "That means you Jolt."
"It's over there." Jolteon nodded at his gingerbread piece's direction. Everyone stayed silent. "It's black." Eevee voiced everyone's thoughts. Jolteon sweatdropped. "I know, I kinda burnt everything. Didn't even have time to put whip cream."
"…" Prism sheepishly looked at Umbreon. "You first. Take a bite."
"I had a big lunch." Umbreon said, backing away. Espeon looked at the burnt gingerbread house cautiously, as if it could make her charcoal as well.
"Next." Flareon said, looking over to Vaporeon's table. "Wait, where is it…" Flareon trailed off, noticing Vaporeon's mouth to be covered in crumbs. Everyone looked at Vaporeon. "he he…" Vaporeon sweatdropped. "...I was hungry?"
Prism sighed. "Next." Umbreon said. T T
This time, it was Flareon's. "I'm surprised yours haven't been burnt." Glaceon said. "Hmph." Flareon said. It was a normal sized gingerbread house, with gumdrops on the edges of the roof and chocolate designs here and there. "It's plain." Prism said, looking closely at the wavy chocolate designs on the house's walls.
"Taste test." Vaporeon took a bite. She munched on it before swallowing it. Vaporeon stiffened with a sour puckered face. Everyone looked at Vaporeon's reaction, before slowly looking at the gingerbread house with a new perspective. They took a large step back, as if it was suddenly poison ivy, and Sylveon gave Vaporeon some water from nearby.
"I must have poured too much lemon." Flareon frowned a bit. "Too much?!" Vaporeon blurted out. "You didn't even need to add lemon!"
"You don't?" Flareon said, surprised. Everyone anime fell.
"You. Have. Got. To. Be. Kidding. Me." Eevee said. Flareon still processed the fact that you don't need lemon.
"Okay, let's try Glaceon's." Prism said, slowly getting up. Everyone marveled at the delicate swirls of chocolate and whipcream on the gingerbread house. Glaceon even put sharpened peppermint sticks under the roof like icicles.
"Itadakima-" Prism said, about to take a portion of a bite. "Itadakimas!" Vaporeon interrupted happily and took her bite. She happily munched it before flinching at Prism's sorrowful atmosphere and expression. Prism sadly took a bite.
"What's with her?" Vaporeon whispered at Eevee's ear. Eevee sweatdropped.
"It's actually good." Prism said in a slight surprise. "What did you expect? It to be frozen?" Glaceon. Prism laughed nervously and Glaceon sweatdropped.
In the end, Sylveon's was the best because the others had either flaws (like Umbreon's to be more like a haunted house than a gingerbread house) or they're not that good of a taste (like Espeon's salty one despite the luxurious design).
"...that was the worst contest ever." Espeon sighed. "At least it wasn't like the wrapping paper one." Prism said. Everyone remembered the paper cuts and the time it took to unwrap the whole forest.
Ani: I prefer it if you don't ask me how they ended up wrapping the whole forest with several trees with different colored ribbons as the bow on top
Present
Of course… Eevee thought glumly as she looked at the view now. "It would have been a happy ending if the others didn't show up."
Prism continued watching with a blank face as the dexholders totally trashed the place (Half on accident, Half on purpose) as crumbs of gingerbread flies around while some ate the gingerbread houses (which end up on bad ending for them). Espeon complained and got angry at the mess in the living room again, growling with flaring eyes as she prepared a swift attack.
Meanwhile, the tree crashed over which made the ornaments and the cookies/peppermints/gingerbread man ornaments to break while the cabinet toppled over, which…
Caused the whole cottage to totally get messy again while Espeon went on a rampage.
Yep. What a typical, random, happy Christmas.
That includes angry howls of the forest pokemon.
Which results in 13 flying stars out of the house roof.
Which then resulted in emergency operations in a nearby hospital.
That's in Fiore.
And the night ended with the eeveelutions plus a girl to calm the forest down before the monsters of the forest woke up.
Surprisingly, their sound sleepers.
Ani: Ho ho ho! What a…nice ending!
Silence~
Ani: ahem. Merry Christmas everyone and hopefully there's no operations during that time.
Ani: And review.
Ani: And open your presents.
Ani: And-yeah, you get the idea
?: And there's a surprise next time!
Ani: Hold it! You're not supposed to be here! OUT!
Ani: Hold it, where's Bla-
Black: *on the roof* I'M GONNA WIN THE POKEMON LEAGUE!
Everyone else below: BE QUIET!
Ani: Ahem, *watches dust fall* I believe that's it so see you next time!
