"Girls, wake up, it's morning!" Eden smiled as she opened the door.
"Ms. Starling, it's too early!" Jenny groaned groggily.
"Yeah, we'll wake up when we're good and ready." Estelle added.
"Go back to sleep, Ms. Starling." Felicity finished.
Eden frowned and then left them to go back to sleep.
"Wait, a minute!" Jenny then woke up.
"What're we saying?" Estelle asked.
"Who cares if we're tired?!" Felicity finished.
The three girls then ran out in a happy blur. "IT'S CHRISTMAS!"
"I knew you girls would realize it soon." Eden smiled.
Teddy and the other Pokemon soon rushed out happily with the girls.
"Would you girls like to join me in some Christmas shopping?" Eden asked as she was instantly full of Christmas spirit.
"We'd love to." Estelle smiled.
Teddy soon caught the scent of something and went over to see an old box.
"Come on, Teddy, we're going shopping!" Estelle smiled, then looked around. "Teddy?"
Teddy smiled as he came to the box to check it out. He soon opened it to find an old Pokeball. It looked a little dusty and slightly patched up.
The girls got on their coats and Eden then went to see what was keeping Teddy.
"Whatcha got there, little fella?" Eden asked, but then gasped once she saw what he had. "Skitty..." she then whispered in shock. "It's been far too long."
Teddy soon handed the Pokeball to her.
"Thank you." Eden took the Pokeball.
Teddy smiled as he was hoping Eden would do the right thing about her long-lost Pokemon. Eden soon let out her long-lost Pokémon. The feline Pokemon jumped out and then tackled down Eden.
"No, no, don't hurt me, I'm sorry!" Eden cried out.
The old Skitty then licked Eden's face as it was actually a playful tackle and not a harming one. And where Eden began to do something she hadn't done in years, laugh. This made the girls smile as Eden was finally having fun again and loved Christmas.
After a while, they did some Christmas shopping. Skitty smiled as she joined Eden in something for the first time in years.
"I've missed you so much." Eden told her Pokemon.
"I missed you more~" Skitty purred.
They all soon went to see the performers.
"Man, and I thought Eloise overdid it with Christmas shopping." Estelle said to herself.
Skitty was the first to get the door for Eden.
"Oh, thank you, Skitty." Eden smiled.
Skitty smiled back up to her trainer/mistress.
In the theater, the workers were working and looked a little miserable about it, but tried to make the best of it that they could.
"And Eden tells them to stop everything in 3, 2, 1." Estelle whispered.
"Stop! Stop the rehearsal, stop everything!" Eden called out after coming inside.
Maurice fell off his unicycle.
"Please don't fire us!" Freddy begged. "We're all here. Okay, yes, maybe we're a couple of minutes late, but-"
"Please, let us-" Ann started.
"Keep our jobs!" Nan finished.
"She's not firing any of you." Jenny assured them.
"It's Christmas," Eden announced with a smile. "I'm here to send you home to your families!"
"It's true!" The girls also smiled.
"But, you said-" Maurice spoke up.
"Well, forget what I said. I was crazy, I was wrong! Go! Go!" Eden replied.
"But Ms. Starling, don't you have presents for them first?" Jenny asked.
"Oh, that's right, wait, wait, stop!" Eden then replied. "Come back, I have presents, and a couple of little elves helped me deliver them!"
Skitty and Chuzzlewit then came out with elf hats.
"Aw! You two look so cute in those outfits." Estelle smiled.
Chuzzlewit looked humiliated while Skitty enjoyed it.
"I, of course, saved my shopping for the last minute, and, of course, everything was closed today, so I had to just grab what I had, but... Merry Christmas." Eden then told her employees.
"It was some stuff she could get at the last minute." Felicity said.
"I pitched in a little for pay from my allowance." Jenny smiled softly.
"And I added in a little magic." Estelle smiled as well.
"Also, if you would all like, I would like to sing for you all..." Felicity then decided, shuffling her foot slightly in shyness.
Everyone liked the sound of that.
"You sure, Felicity?" Jenny asked, surprised that even Felicity was getting the courage to sing in public.
"Oui... I am sure," Felicity confirmed. "Then how about you join moi, Jenny?" she then offered.
"Oh, m-me?!" Jenny stammered.
"Oui." Felicity nodded.
"I... I don't know, I..." Jenny pouted.
Teddy pouted to her and gave puppy dog-like eyes with a whimper as he looked into her eyes.
Jenny tried to not to give in, but she couldn't resist the puppy dog eyes or the whimper. She then sighed in defeat. "All right... I'll sing." She soon got next to Felicity who was ready to sing.
There was a melodic tune heard and then the girls sang We Wish You a Merry Christmas as Eden gave presents to the others.
"Sk-Skitty?!" Catherine looked down in surprise to Eden's Pokemon.
"I finally found her, she was in her Pokeball in an old box." Eden said.
"I'm so glad you two are together again, Nell will be so pleased." Catherine smiled to her old friend.
"I know he will." Eden smiled.
"I was wrong about you, Eden," Maurice smiled. "You're one of the good ones. Merci."
Skitty nodded, still so full of energy. Eden then handed Freddy a note as a part of his present. Freddy took the letter and looked through it.
"Now for Catherine." Estelle said.
"Eden, I-" Catherine sounded nervous.
"Catherine, I know for a fact you've been working on another show behind my back." Eden replied.
"Please let me explain..." Catherine sounded anxious now.
"And we think it's wonderful." Estelle smiled.
Catherine looked surprised.
"I want to go with you to see the kids perform," Eden smiled to her oldest friend. "I understand I might have a couple of fans at the orphanage."
"You do, but how do you know about the orphanage?" Catherine replied.
"Let's just say a friend told us." Jenny said.
"Come on, let's hurry." Eden suggested.
"Yeah!" Felicity nodded before she saw Freddy's reaction to his present.
"Yes, yes!" Freddy cheered.
"What was that all about?" Catherine asked.
"I guess he liked his Christmas present." Eden smiled.
"Sounds like it." Estelle smiled too.
Nell came out of her Pokeball and gasped happily to see Skitty. "Skitty!" he then smiled as he went up to her.
"Nell!" Skitty came back to her fellow Pokemon.
The two then nuzzled each other which made everyone look in cute awe.
"You evolved into an Ariados." Skitty smiled.
"You haven't changed though." Nell pouted.
"Well, I've been in my Pokeball the whole time." Skitty said.
"I was hoping that was just a rumor." Nell replied.
"It's fine, as long as we're together now." Skitty soothed.
"I have an idea, what if we make Eden a special surprise guest?" Felicity asked.
"That's a great idea!" Jenny cheered.
"I agree." Eden said.
Eden and Catherine shared a laugh together for the first time in years.
They were now on their way to the orphanage. And where the girls and Pokémon and Chuzzlewit were going to come along.
"I think I'll sing in public now..." Jenny decided. "I sang for Chuckie's dad's and Kimi's mom's wedding."
"You sure did." Estelle smiled.
"I guess I can sing for a crowd..." Jenny sighed.
"I hear you're the best singer in your school." Felicity agreed.
"Yeah." Estelle smiled.
Jenny smiled shyly.
They were soon at the orphanage. The orphans were just finishing up singing Joy to the World. And where the children were going to get a special guest. The crowd cheered for the orphans.
"That was amazing, everyone. Thank you so much, but we're not done quite yet," Catherine smiled to the kids. "I've brought you a special Christmas present. A special guest I thought you might want to meet. Special guest?"
"Merry Christmas, everybody!" Eden suddenly appeared.
Skitty came out next to her trainer. The orphans gasped in surprise to see Eden Starling right in front of them. Eden soon walked up to them. Skitty walked with her of course.
"Tammy?" Eden asked the blonde-haired girl.
"You know my name!" Tammy gasped.
Eden smiled and then hugged her.
"I want a hug too!" the boy pouted.
Eden soon gave a group hug to all of the orphan children. "Oh, Elizabeth, Jacob, Edmund," She smiled to all the orphans and decided to do something nice for each and every one of them. "You were all incredible! I'm so happy to be a part of your Christmas. Ooh, and I have a special present for you all. I am going to personally adopt this place. Anything you need, new furniture, toys, books... Anything and everything. I just want you to come directly to me, and I will make sure you have it. I want these children to have the best."
This made the children cheer in response as this was the best Christmas ever for them.
"She certainly has learned her lesson." Teddy smiled.
"I'm stunned, there are no words." the orphanage head replied as she appeared to be standing next to a Jigglypuff and Chansey.
"A Jigglypuff and a Chansey." Estelle smiled.
"It's like Nurse Joy." Felicity agreed.
"Yes, my best Pokemon," the orphanage head smiled. "Chansey helps me nurse the children if they're unwell and Jigglypuff helps them sleep soundly if they have a rough night."
"By letting her use 'Sing', right?" Estelle smiled.
"Of course, but I have to be careful I don't listen too, otherwise I'll fall asleep too early when I have to do work." the orphanage head chuckled.
"This is the greatest Christmas ever!" Tammy smiled. "God bless us, everyone!"
The other orphans cheered in agreement with her.
"You're incredible," Catherine said to Eden. "Where did all of this come from?"
Nell was surprised by this kindness from Eden.
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you," Eden smiled to Catherine. "Just trust that it had a lot to do with you. Thank you."
"Thank you for giving me my friend back." Catherine replied.
Eden soon hugged Catherine. The orphans cheered again and so did the Pokemon.
"We did it, Mama!" Teddy smiled to Estelle.
"We sure did." Estelle smiled back.
The girls and Pokemon cheered as they made everything right in the end as they should. And where they soon heard a horse-drawn carriage coming. Freddy smiled and waved as he was the driver.
'Perhaps now he'll have the chance.' Estelle thought to herself.
"Ladies." Freddy greeted.
"Freddy, you're driving us?" Catherine asked.
"It would be my greatest honor... but first, sometime when it's not Christmas and we're not going off to visit your family, I was wondering if I might... if I could have the pleasure of... That is... If I could have... The honor of..." Freddy stammered.
"Freddy, are you asking me out on a date?" Catherine smiled.
"Yes." Freddy admitted sheepishly.
"I'd love to." Catherine smiled.
"YES!" Freddy cheered out of victory.
Estelle smiled, but she still felt sad as she didn't have a significant other like her brothers. The Pokemon could see Chuzzlewit eating something in the bag. Eden laughed at that and pet her cat. After he ate the food, his belly was full. Skitty giggled to Chuzzlewit.
Eden soon looked to Estelle and where she had an idea for who would take care of Skitty from now on. Teddy and Skitty giggled and playfully ran as they played with the other Pokemon.
"You know, Estelle; Skitty will need a new Pokemon trainer who will have plenty of energy to play with her." Eden said.
"Oh, ma'am, I couldn't take your Pokemon." Estelle replied.
"Please, I insist, take her as a present and so then you won't ever forget this day." Eden said as she gave Estelle Skitty's Pokeball.
"Oh, thank you," Estelle replied, taking the Pokeball. "Merry Christmas, Ms. Starling."
"Merry Christmas, children from the future." Eden winked.
Estelle gasped, but then smiled.
"You knew?" Felicity asked.
"After that visit by those three ghosts, yes." Eden nodded.
The girls then smiled to each other as Estelle's shoes began to glow.
"Looks like it's time we go back home." Estelle said.
"Aww..." Jenny pouted.
"Come on, Jennivere," Felicity replied. "There'll be other adventures."
"I guess so." Jenny sighed.
The Pokemon soon rushed over to their trainers and where Skitty and Eden said goodbye after she told her where she would be going. Eden and Skitty shared a rather tearful goodbye, but it was for a good cause. Skitty soon comes over to Estelle as her new Pokémon trainer. Estelle smiled as she held out her arms to the feline Pokemon. Skitty smiled back and then jumped into Estelle's arms with glee. They were sent back to the present just as Barbie was finishing up the story for Kelly and the girls were then sent back to the present.
