(Hi!! Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you having a great one! I figured I'd work on this before the day was over. Anyways, enjoy!)
It was Thanksgiving! This was pretty exciting! "All right, chamaco!" Piranha and his nephew were playing football at the park, Zeke managed to throw the football. Piranha seemed like he was having a hard time trying to catch it, though. "Tío, are you sure you'll be okay to keep playing?" Zeke asked, he tripped over trying to catch the ball.
"Yeah, yeah, no pasa nada, sobrino." Piranha then said. "Come on, Zekey, let's try a field goal!" Piranha suggested. Zeke nodded, that might be safer, considering that Piranha was rolling all over the grass whenever he caught the football. Piranha held it in place, "All right, Zekey! Ready when you are." Piranha held the football in place. Zeke thought this looked familiar from somewhere, "Hey, does this look familiar to you, Tío Pepe?" Zeke asked.
Piranha had a questioning look on his face, "Nah, I think we just remember something from TV, chamaco." Zeke nodded, maybe thinking that's where he remembered something about the football. Zeke then ran ahead to kick the football. He sent it into the air, like a jet about to take off. Only that jet had a…passenger?
"WAIT, WAAAUGHH!" Piranha was launched with the football, "TÍO!" Zeke shouted, worriedly, then ran to try and catch him.
He managed to catch him! "Tío Pepe, are you okay?! I'm sorry!" He apologized, "WOOOOHOOO! Zekey, that was awesome!" Piranha said, excited, Zeke took a deep breath. "I kick next!" He wanted to see how he could kick.
Zeke held the football in place, next. "Okay, Tío Pepe! It's set!" Zeke said. Piranha ran ahead, too hopped up on the adrenaline from before, he kicked the ball. It launched into the air, "Aww, I wanted it to launch higher than that." Piranha then said, whining.
"It's okay, Tío." Zeke said, "Hey guys, how's it going?" Tarantula then walked toward them. "Tío almost got launched into the stratosphere." Zeke said, exaggerating the weird stunt that accidentally happened. "Hah! Glad he made it all the way back, then." Webs said, "Okay, so what now?" Piranha then asked.
"Oh! Diane and Shark said the food's ready." Diane and Shark were on cooking duty for the turkey.
(Speaking of)
Shark placed everything around the table, "Hey, Diane? Did we decide who sits where?" Shark asked, slightly. "No, why?" She asked, as Piranha, Zeke and Taranula were fighting over the chair. "Come on, Tío, it's my turn to sit on the end!" Zeke said, "¡Excepto que es donde suelo sentarme, Zeke!" He shouted at him, in Spanish. "I'd like to point out how I HAVEN'T had a turn yet!" Tarantula.
"Guys, come on! Every single time?" Shark asked, they all stared back at Shark, before immediately fixing themselves. "Our bad." They all said together. Shark walked back into the kitchen. "Oh yeah, I forgot about the three of them when they fight." Diane said. "Shark, are the mashed potatoes ready?" Shark was still working on it, "Almost done."
Wolf and Snake were watching the parade on tv. "Snake, you excited to eat some turkey?" Wolf asked, but the serpent was asleep. "Whatever, just wake me up for desserts." Snake then said, ever so passively. Wolf smiled, as that didn't come off as irritated or grumpy. Snake was coming out of his shell—or—shedding his skin—he supposed.
Zeke pulled out his phone and checked on his friends' Thanksgivings.

Diane and Shark set the table, "Wolf, Snake, the table's set!" She said, as the two walked up to the table and sat down.
Shark put the mashed potatoes. There were foods as traditional as could be:
turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, pumpkin pie, and a few veggies.
"Zekey, you gotta have some veggies." Diane said, "Okay." Zeke said, Piranha chuckled, finding that a little cliche.
"You too, Piranha." Shark said, "Wh-What? I don't want vegetables!" Piranha said, "Tío, we don't throw fits, come on." Zeke scolded him, Piranha childishly folded his arms.
Everyone sat down and and prepped their plates. "All right, who wants to say grace?" Diane asked, Wolf smiled, "I can start us off."
The Bad Guys and Diane out there arms out in prayer.
"Thank You, God, that were all together. And that we all have a fresh start being good guys now. …I thank You that my Zekey has a mom that loves him again. We thank You for always supporting us and continuing to go the distance with us. May You keep our hearts in Your Love. In Your Son Jesus's Name we pray, Amen." Wolf finished his prayer.
"Look at you, Wolfy! You nailed it!" Tarantula said, Wolf blushed nervously. Zeke giggled, "Great job, Dad!" Zeke said to his father. "So, what's for dessert?" Snake asked, "I'm expecting maybe a chocolate pie?"
Shark just gave a half-smile, "Yeah, we were lucky to have chocolate pudding before we had to cook."
Diane looked at Shark, "Yeah, it was like a last minute thing, too." She explained.
"Well, Madam Governor, I'll have you know Shark is an incredible chef, so the turkey was always the best." Wolf then said, "Ohoh…And where does that put me at, Wolf?" She asked, "I'm sure you noticed I was cooking, too, right?" Diane then asked, "Please don't try to gaslight each other." Zeke and Tarantula then said, simultaneously.
Diane and Wolf laughed, "Sorry, buddy." Wolf said to his son. "Sorry, Webs." Diane said to Tarantula.
"So, after Thanksgiving, there's Black Friday." Tarantula then suggested, Zeke immediately shuddered. "Oh geez…"
Zeke dreaded the Black Friday shopping sprees with his aunt and Uncle Lou.
Thanksgiving is a great holiday. There's so much to be thankful for, and Zeke had some of the most chaotic ones in his 8 years of living with The Bad Guys.
"Still, this Thanksgiving's been great. Thank You, God…That You haven't left me or anyone here, you know? Thank You for giving me a family that cares about me. Amen."
Zeke couldn't wait for next year's Thanksgiving.
(Okay, here we are! I hope you guys liked this! I tried to keep every character consistent. The only one that I acted more fanfic-ish with was Shark and the fact that he's the cook in the family. Okay, I already have a few ideas for a few new ones shots with Piranha and Tarantula, so I hope you look forward to that. Stay strong and awesome! Be thankful that God is good and that He loves you!)
