Chapter 75: Enchanted Christmas Special

Hey everyone. Happy Holidays! I know I promised to have Deep Jungle out next, but I thought you all would appreciate this Christmas Special a lot more. I was gonna do it later in the story, but I thought reading it around Christmas would be more meaningful to you all. This is a combination of two movies and it took a lot of thought and planning. I hope you like it. Please Review and Enjoy. Merry Christmas.

It was Christmas Eve and it was snowing at Ever After High as all the students and staff were smiling as they were decorating for the school's Christmas party. Through the halls Roxas was on his glider hanging garland from the top of the gymnasium while down below everyone was setting up for the party: laying out tables for the food, setting up the speakers for the dance and decorating the area below.

"Deck the halls with boughs of holly." Raven sang as she and Amora used their magic to hang streamers.

"Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la." Everyone else sang.

"Tis the season to be jolly." Apple sang as Hunter and Sparrow placed wood by the small campfire they had set up.

"Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la."

"Don we now our gay apparel." Headmaster Milton and Giles sang walking in with Santa hats for everyone and handing one to Roxas as he floated down towards them.

"Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la." Everyone said as they all cheered.

"Troll the ancient yuletide carol." Ashlynn sang as Daring and Leroy carried in a large Christmas tree and put it in the corner of the room.

"Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la."

"Excellent work students, the decorations are looking amazing." Milton smiles.

"By tomorrow everything will be ready for our annual Christmas party." Giles nods in agreement.

"I love the holidays." Cupid sighs as they decorate the large tree.

"I've never celebrated Christmas before, what do we do exactly?" Xion asks hanging an ornament.

"Really? What did they have you guys do around the Organization around the holidays?" Melody asks.

"If we had any holidays, they never told us." Xion said.

"We just collected Hearts, we only ever had one day off all year." Roxas nods.

"And I was too busy stringing together memories to focus on the holiday." Namine said.

"Oh man you guys missed out." Ramona said.

"The big Christmas dinner." Cerise said.

"The presents." Daring said.

"And spending time with those closest to you." Melody said.

"It was all just right." Blondie smiles.

"Very interesting, these are much like the celebrations back in Asgard." Amora said looking around. "Only with less fighting."

"Well fighting is not a thing we allow during the holidays." Briar said.

"Shame." Amora shrugs.

"Trust me Amora, you guys are gonna love it." Poppy said.

"Now students even though this is technically a party I want all of you to have some control, no need to go crazy with the mistletoe." Giles said as Amora, Apple, Cerise, Melody, Namine, Maddie, Poppy and Briar all had the same thought of being with Roxas under one causing them to sigh.

Roxas walks to the tree and puts on a Santa hat. 'My first Christmas as a being with a heart. I can't wait to celebrate it tomorrow.' Roxas thought when heard a beeping from the World Map causing him and all the members of the team to groan.

"Seriously? It's Christmas." Daring said.

"I guess Darkness refuses to take a holiday." Dexter said as Roxas brought up the map to see a familiar location.

"Hey Rosabella, I think you'll like this one." Roxas smiles.

"Why's that?" She asks interested.

"This is Beast's Castle." Roxas said showing the image to her causing her to smile.

"I get to meet another version of my parents?" Rosabella asks.

"But wait Roxas, what about the party?" Poppy asks.

"We still have a lot to do and not much time left." Maddie said holding up a giant clock.

Roxas pauses to think to figure out a plan.

An hour later Roxas, Xion, Raven, Apple, Rosabella, Melody, Darling, Daring, Blondie and Dexter were making their way towards the Tempest.

"Okay let's try to get this done before the party so we can make it back in time to be with everyone." Darling said.

"Don't worry Darling, Roxas and I have snuck into that castle many times. We'll be out in no time." Xion said.

"I can't wait to see the parallel versions of my parents. This is already starting off as an amazing Christmas." Rosabella smiles.

Looking at her smiling face Daring couldn't help but grin as well.

"Plus, I wonder how this Princess of the Heart compares to Princess Jasmine." Raven said.

"Let's get going." Blondie said excited to give her viewers a new scoop.

Climbing into the Tempest they set off for Beast's Castle in hopes of making it back in time for Christmas, but little did they know this would be a Christmas the people of that world would never forget.


Arriving on the outskirts of the forest, the team walks into a little town full of people who were bustling around going about their business.

"Wow, we've never been here before." Xion said looking around.

"Looks like it's Christmas here too." Apple said as they looked at the decorations.

The group wandered through town making their way to Beast's Castle when they heard laughter.

"Please, I beg of you. Please help me."

Looking towards the noise they saw an old man with white hair being laughed at by a few adults.

"Look Crazy Old Maurice, it's Christmas. Can't you take the comedy act down?" They mocked walking away, but not before one pushed him into the snow and laughing.

Walking over Rosabella helps Maurice up. "Are you alright?"

"I'll be fine." Maurice said brushing off the snow and looking at Rosabella. "Belle?"

"Huh?" She said confused.

"Oh I'm sorry it's just something about you reminds me of my daughter." Maurice said.

"Why were those guys laughing and picking on you?" Dexter asks.

"I'd tell you, but you might think I'm crazy." Maurice frowns.

"No, we won't we promise." Xion said.

"My daughter Belle is being held in a dungeon by a beast. A horrible Beast." Maurice said causing their eyes to widen at that.

"No way." Melody gasps.

"I'm serious. She's in a castle in the forest." Maurice points when suddenly they heard a gunshot startling them.

Turning around they saw a duck fall from the sky and hit the ground dead as a man with short brown hair runs over and stuffs the bird in a sack. This was Lefou.

"Maurice what are you doing? Trying to get the kids to believe you now?" A muscular man with black hair and a red shirt said walking over with a large gun in his hands.

"Gaston." Maurice narrows his eyes.

"Listen kids take my advice you shouldn't be listening to what this crazy old man is saying. You should be trying to find real men to listen to. Like me." Gaston smirks.

'I don't like this guy, he acts like how I used to act.' Daring thought.

Lefou walks over and pushes them away from Maurice. "Come on you heard Gaston, get going."

'See you round Maurice by the end of Christmas Belle shall be bride.' Gaston smirks.

Rosabella took one last look at Maurice before frowning and following Roxas and Xion into the forest.

Looking at her Daring notices the sad expression on her face. "Rosabella, are you okay?"

"That man is a parallel version of my grandfather and he was being mocked for what was basically telling the truth." She said.

"Hopefully the curse is broken soon." Melody said.

"Well when Sora came here Belle and Beast had gotten much closer after stopping an Organization member from stealing the Enchanted Rose." Roxas said bringing hope to Rosabella's eyes.

"So maybe there's a chance." Rosabella smiles.

As they neared the castle snow started falling from the air, reaching a small clearing in the woods they stopped when they heard rustling in the trees.

From the trees multiple Werewolf Heartless emerge growling at them.

"Don't look now but I think we're surrounded." Roxas said summoning Two Become One and Xion summons Sunset by the Sea.

"Even on the holidays we can't catch a break from these things." Raven said as everyone huddled together as the Werewolves got closer. Raven's hands glow purple, Apple summons her staff, Rosabella summons her shield, Dexter readies his Plasma blasters, Melody summons her Battle Mix and Daring transforms into his beast form.

One of the Werewolves lunged forward about to attack.

"Rosabella!" Blondie yells as Rosabella raises her shield deflecting the attack. As the Werewolf staggers back, Daring delivers a powerful punch sending it smashing into a tree.

As it stands up to recover Roxas and Darling jump in from above and slices it in half destroying it.

Raven fires multiple purple fireballs at two Werewolves who scramble as they try to avoid getting hit.

"Slow!" Apple yells as the Werewolves movements turned to the speed of a snail.

Dexter uses this opening to fire multiple shots that merge with Raven's magic to create balls of purple plasma blasting the Werewolves into nothing.

"Whoa." Dexter said as he and Raven look at each other and grin.

A Werewolf lunges at Xion who raises her keyblade as it bites down on the blade causing the two of them to be in lock until Melody blasts it with a few music notes allowing Xion to rush in and destroy it.

Roxas separates Two Become One into Oathkeeper and Oblivion and slashes a Werewolf in half with blades of light and Darkness.

"Raven, let's finish these things." Apple said as she and Raven run in front of everyone.

Apple's staff glows bright as Raven's hands glow black. "Opposing Fates!" They yelled as two large blasts of light and darkness destroying all the Heartless.

"Wow you two have been practicing." Roxas said.

"I'll say, those Heartless didn't stand a chance." Blondie said ending her recording.

"Hey guys look over here." Daring said turning back to human form.

They all walk over to see Beast's Castle in the distance.

"Wow it looks like my family castle back home." Rosabella said.

"You guys used to come here for missions?" Darling asks.

"Yeah but we had to sneak in so Beast wouldn't notice us while Sora walked through the front door." Roxas said as they made their way to the front gate.

"Well this time you guys will be walking in the front door." Raven chuckles.


Meanwhile on the other side of the castle on the frozen pond a Belle was tying on her skates while a teapot, teacup, candelabra and a clock were nearby. These were Lumiere, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts and Chip.

"Come on Master, it could be fun." Lumiere said as Beast slowly walks over.

"Well I guess I could try." Beast said stepping onto the ice but struggled to keep his balance causing Belle to giggle.

"Here try it like this. One, two, three. One, two, three." Belle said showing him how to skate.

Soon Belle and Beast were skating across the ice together holding hands and laughing.

"Ha ha. Do you see it? It's in the air." Cogswork said.

"It's love." Mrs. Potts agrees.

From the front gate Roxas pushes open the door causing the door to creak and the sound reaches Beast's ears causing him to break concentration and fall into the snow along with Belle.

"Is everything alright?" Belle asks.

"Someone's in my castle." Beast growls.

"Wait Beast, please calm down." Belle said trying to help, but Beast roars and rushes back into the castle. "Oh this isn't good." Belle said worried as she tried to chase after him.

"Master please, wait!" Cogsworth said.

"Remain calm." Lumiere said as they all rushed after Belle.

In the main room everyone was looking at the creepy and dark décor.

"I think I liked the outside of the castle better." Rosabella said.

"I'm starting to see why you two used to sneak in and out." Darling said looking at a piano.

"Uh it's rude to look." The piano said startling them.

"A talking piano? That's a new one." Roxas said recalling the only ones he saw were Lumiere, Cogsworth, Belle and Beast.

"Whoa cool. Hey what kind of music do you play?" Melody said walking over.

"Oh forgive me. My name is Maestro Cadenza. Now quick you children better get out quick before the master comes here. He's not well this time of year."

"What do you mean he's not—" Apple was interrupted as Beast drops down in front of them and roars causing all of them to scream in panic causing Dexter to cling to Raven surprising her at first, but she didn't mind.

"Master please, they're just children. It's Christmas!" Maestro said causing Beast to roar again.

"Get out! Get out all of you! I hate Christmas!" Beast said charging at them.

"Don't hurt him, but don't let him hit you!" Xion said as they ran out of the way.

Belle enters the room to see Beast trying to attack the kids from Ever After and gasps.

Beast jumps at Roxas and Xion who at the last second summon their keyblades blocking his attack, but with his strength the two of them are sent crashing into the wall.

"Keyblades?" Belle gasps.

As Blondie and Dexter help them Beast was about to charge at them when Belle gets in front of him.

"Beast stop!" She yells.

Rosabella looks at this version of her mother and was speechless.

"They broke into my castle they must be punished." Beast growls.

"Beast look at what's in their hands." Belle points as Beast sees the Keyblades and his eyes widen.

"Just like Sora's." Beast said.

"Yes Beast, remember how much Sora helped us?" Belle said calming him down as Lumiere, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts and Chip hop in to see Belle trying to soothe him.

"We're friends of Sora and I promise you we are not here to do any harm." Dexter said.

"Yeah, we help people." Melody said.

Beast looks at their faces to show they were telling the truth when he noticed Rosabella and felt something familiar about her. Something calm and safe. It made him feel happier.

"Very well. You can stay for one night. Then you must leave." Beast said walking to his chambers.

"Yikes, talk about grumpy." Daring said as Rosabella watched Beast walk up the stairs before turning to Belle as she walked over.

"I'm sorry about that." Belle said.

"It's okay, believe it or not we're used to it." Apple sighs.

"You know I'm actually glade you're here. You all can help me prepare the castle for Christmas." Belle said causing Chip to hop over.

"You mean it? We're really going to have a Christmas?" Chip asks.

"Absolutely." Belle said.


"Absolutely not!" Cogsworth said causing everyone to groan.

"Seriously? I mean seriously?" Melody said annoyed.

"That is so not just right." Blondie said.

"Forget it, there's no way it is happening." Cogsworth said.

"Come on my friend, get with the spirit. Unwind." Lumiere jokes.

"Come on love, have a heart." Mrs. Potts said.

"No, no, no. I am putting my foot down. The master has forbidden Christmas." Cogsworth said.

"No one can forbid Christmas." Belle said.

"Yeah, it's one of the best times of the year." Apple said.

"The master doesn't wish to be remembered of his past and Christmas is the most painful. I don't wish to torture him." Cogsworth said.

"I think a little Christmas cheer could do him some good." Belle said.

"I agree." Rosabella said and everyone agrees with her.

"The girl is right, it is up to us to do something." Lumiere said.

"No we don't. We do not have to stick our noses in matters that—" Cogsworth was interrupted as Raven picks him up.

"Is there a snooze button on this guy?" Raven asks.

"Sadly no, believe me I've looked." Lumiere said.

"How humiliating." Cogsworth said as Raven put him down.

"Pish posh I think it's a wonderful idea." Mrs. Potts said.

"But the Master said no. His castle, his rules." Cogsworth said.

"But it's not fair." Chip whines.

"I can't believe you guys are acting like this." Rosabella said getting their attention. "At my home my parents and everyone were always happy and at their very best at Christmas, but all of you are not. Where's your Christmas spirit?"

"She's right, why we used to prepare a ball with an entire feast for the whole castle." Mrs. Potts said causing Cogsworth to sigh.

"I loved that feast." Cogsworth smiles.

"Well what's stopping you from having that again?" Roxas asks.

"He's right. Come on everyone we have a lot of planning to do." Lumiere said.

"I don't even know where to start." Belle smiles.

"Don't worry, I know just who can help." Lumiere said as they all left the room.


Climbing up a tall tower the team from Ever After were groaning.

"Are we there yet?" Chip asks.

"Not yet." Belle said holding Lumiere for light.

"Why did your friend have to be in such a tall tower?" Daring groans.

"Come on guys, we're almost there." Darling pants.

"You know you all don't seem as surprised by this castle as I thought. Did Sora tell you all about this place?" Belle asks.

"Uh yeah, that's it." Dexter said knowing all of them couldn't say the truth.

"So why did you all come here?" Belle asks.

"Well originally went to the village nearby first….and we met your father." Rosabella said surprising her.

"You met my father? How is he?" Belle asks turning towards her.

"He misses you very much, but for some reason the whole town calls him crazy." Apple said causing Belle to scoff.

"My father is not crazy, he's a genius. Ugh it's all because of that brute Gaston." Belle rolls her eyes.

"Yeah we had the pleasure of running into him too." Darling said.

"You know before I came here Gaston tried to ask me to marry him." Belle said getting their attention.

"So what you do?" Roxas asks.

"I kicked him out the door and into the mud." Belle said causing all of them to laugh.

"I like this version of your mom." Raven whispers to Rosabella.

"Me too, but my dad…" Rosabella said not so sure.

Finally making it to the top they saw many crates lying around, but no one else.

"Hello? Hello?" Belle calls out.

"Is anyone here?" Apple asks as they heard rattling.

"Do not be afraid, it is I, Lumiere. We have come to pay you a visit."

Xion looks around when she notices one of the crates opening up.

"Lumiere?" A female voice said.

"Angelique." Lumiere smiles as blonde-haired Christmas Angel climbed out with a few Christmas ornaments behind her.

"Lumiere! I thought we were gonna be locked away in this dusty old attic forever." Angelique said.

"A mi amor your eyes still shimmer like stars." Lumiere flirts until Melody clears her throat. "Oh uh these are our guests Belle, Rosabella, Roxas, Melody, Darling, Dexter, Daring, Raven, Apple, Xion and Blondie. Everyone, this is Angelique the castle decorator."

"Was the castle decorator. I am not responsible for this barbaric atrocity. When I was in charge the castle was full of light and beauty." Angelique said.

"That's why we're here, we need your help to get the castle ready for Christmas." Belle said causing the ornaments to jump up and down happy.

"No. Stop!" Angelique said turning away causing the ornaments to stop.

"No? What do you mean no? It's Christmas." Daring said.

"No. I refuse to get my I mean everyone's hopes up only to be ruined." Angelique said.

"But it's Christmas Eve, we'll never get the castle ready in time without you." Belle said.

"That's too bad. I will not be disappointed again." Angelique said.

"But this is to be the greatest Christmas ever. We can't do it without you." Lumiere said.

"Of course not, Christmas takes lots of planning and organization. I won't do it. It won't change anything." Angelique said.

Everyone frowns thinking they failed when Belle kneels down and picks up Angelique. "I believe it will. There's more to this time of year than material things, those things come and go, but what truly makes this holiday truly amazing is the hope it gives people when they spend it with people who truly make them happy." Belle said making all of them smile.

"Well what are we waiting for. We got a lot of work to do." Roxas gestures for the ornaments to follow them downstairs to the main room.

Rosabella looked as Belle and the residents of the castle assembled a tree out of materials around the castle she smiles as Belle handed her Angelique and she instantly knew what to do.

"What are you doing? Put me down. The lights are supposed to go on first." Angelique said as Rosabella is helped up by Maestro Cadenza and she puts Angelique on the top where the Christmas angel is supposed to go.

"As long as there's Christmas there always be a time when the world is filled with peace and love." Belle smiles.

"Are we really going to have the best Christmas ever?" Chip asks excited.

"I hope so Chip. I hope you all don't mind helping us before you go celebrate your own Christmas?" Belle asks.

Everyone looks at each other and then the tree of materials collapsed. "Yeah I think we can do that." Xion giggles.

"Count us in." Apple smiles.

"You all are so nice. I can see why you're all friends with Sora." Belle smiles.


Heading down the boiler room Belle, Roxas, Daring and Rosabella headed down to find a Yule Log for everyone.

"So, I was thinking that Melody and Maestro Cadenza could take care of the music for the ball tonight." Belle said.

"You got it. Melody can make anything sound great." Roxas assured her.

Entering the room multiple picks and wheelbarrows were bring logs to an axe who cut them up and they threw the wood into the boiler.

"Uh do you mind? We're working here." The axe said.

"Oh I'm sorry." Belle said.

"We're looking for a log." Daring said.

"Oh well we got plenty of those, what kind do you need?" The Axe asks.

"Is it alright if we just look around?" Belle asks.

"By all means." The Axe shrugs before going back to work.

As they looked around Rosabella was trying to reach the top logs when Daring walked over.

"Allow me." Daring said cupping his hands together and giving her a boost.

"My hero." Rosabella smiles as she reaches the log. "How about this one Belle?"

Belle walks over and examines it carefully. "Perfect."

Suddenly they heard a loud roar and jump to see Beast coming into the room. Acting quickly Belle hid the log behind her back.

"What is that your hiding?" Beast asks.

"What are you talking about?" Roxas asks.

Moving quickly Beast moves behind Belle and grabs the log. "What is this?"

"It's a Yule Log. It's an amazing tradition, one log is chosen and everyone in the household makes a Christmas wish." Belle said.

"Wishes are stupid. You made a wish last year. Is this what you wished for?!" Beast yells gesturing to the castle.

"No." Belle frowns. "But I'll keep wishing and tomorrow on Christmas the log will be burned."

"There will be no Christmas." Beast said turning away.

"What?" Daring said shocks.

"How can you even say that?" Roxas asks, but Beast growls at them.

"Enough! I am the master of this castle and you will all obey me!" Beast yells.

"How can you be so selfish?" Rosabella asks.

"You, you have no idea what if feels like to lose everything! To trapped in your own castle, to be—"

"A prisoner." Belle said interrupting Beast. "The only one keeping us prisoner is you, well I'm not giving up."

Belle storms out of the room.

"Belle, wait!" Daring said as he ran after her.

Roxas turned to Beast and glares. "I thought Sora knocked some sense into you."

"You thought wrong." Beast said not even looking him in the eyes.

Rosabella looks at Beast with pure shock on her face not believing it tightening her fist she and Roxas left the boiler room.


In Belle's room Belle lays down on her bed with Daring nearby when Roxas and Rosabella walk in.

"Is she alright?" Roxas asks.

"She'll be fine. The poor thing is just sad." A female voice said. Looking to the side they saw the wardrobe was talking to them. This was Madame de Garderobe.

"Hey guys!" Looking behind them they saw Chip hopping in. "We got everything set up. It looks amazing! I can't wait til the master finds out." Chip said excited.

"Actually Chip, he already knows." Daring frowns.

"Great, so what he say?" Chip asks.

"Actually, he's forbidden Christmas." Belle sighs.

"What? But he can't forbid Christmas." Chip said in shock as Belle opens the curtains to let light in.

"There must be something we can do to knock some sense into him." Roxas said.

"You know…there actually is." Belle smiles.

Walking to her desk Belle picks up a wrapped present and was about to walk out the door when Rosabella gets in front of her.

"I'll get it to him, you all go focus on the party." Rosabella said taking it from her.

"Are you sure?" Belle asks as Rosabella nods. "Thank you."

As Belle made her way out a serious expression appeared on Rosabella's face which didn't go unnoticed by Daring.

Rosabella walks out of the room and Daring runs after her. "Rosabella wait!" He said stopping in front of her. "I know that look, you're up to something."

"It's time someone else stood up to Beast and knock some sense into him." Rosabella said.

"What are you going to do?" Daring asks concernred.

"Something that should've been done a long time ago." She turns to Daring and smiles. "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

Daring looks into her eyes and could tell she was telling the truth. "Alright…good luck." Rosabella walks past him and into the West Wing where the Beast's room was. "She never fails to amaze me." Daring smiles.

Walking to Beast's room Rosabella enters the room and looks in awe at the center of the room where the enchanted rose that started it all laid. "There it is." Rosabella said softly when she noticed some of the petals had already fallen off.

Looking to the balcony she saw Beast looking out to see everyone setting up in the ballroom for the Christmas.

"I can't believe Belle would do this to me." Beast growls.

"Really? After the way you just treated her?" Beast turns around to see Rosabella glaring at him.

"What are you doing in my chambers?!" Beast roars but Rosabella was unfazed. Extending her hands, she held out Belle's gift for him. "What is this?" Beast asks taking it.

"A present for you, from Belle." Rosabella said surprising him.

"Belle?" Beast reaches for the ribbon and was about to open it when Rosabella smacks his paw causing him to flinch.

"Hold it mister, you don't open that gift until I say what I have to say." Rosabella said.

Beast growls as he puts down the box. "Fine."

"I know your story. You turned away an old woman in the snow and she cursed you and everyone in this castle, but I want to know what any of that has to do with Christmas?" Rosabella said.

Beast looks to the rose and saw another petal drop. "You really want to know? Christmas was the day my life was ruined forever. Christmas was the day I received this horrible curse!" Beast roars surprising Rosabella.

"That's why you wanted to forbid it so much." She realized before walking up to Beast. "Still it's no reason for you to act the way you did."

"Why not? She disobeyed me to have this accursed holiday." Beast said.

"Do know why Belle wants to the celebrate Christmas? It's the same reason she made you that gift…it's because she cares. And not just about you, about your staff, about my friends, about everyone in this castle. You may think you're the only one who suffered that Christmas but you're not, everyone here is suffering, but they're trying to make the best of it by celebrating a time when all of them were happy and if you can't see all that then I really pity you." Rosabella said with each word hitting Beast to the heart.

Beast looks Rosabella in the eyes and for a split second he almost saw Belle when she stood up to him.

"Only two people have ever talked to me like that. You're a very brave girl." Beast looks at his present. "I can't believe Belle cares about me this much." He opens the present to reveal a storybook. "A Book?"

"Give it a read." Rosabella urges.

Beast sits down in his chair and opens the first page of his book. "Uh would you mind sitting with me while I read it?" Beast asks.

"I think I can do that." Rosabella smiles sitting across from him.

As Beast read the book aloud Rosabella was drawn into every word Belle wrote along with Beast.

"Many gifts were exchanged that night, but the greatest gift given was hope." Beast said finishing the book.

Rosabella wipes her eyes drying off the tears. "That's a beautiful story."

"It is…Rosabella." Beast said getting her attention as he stood up. "Follow me."

"Where are we going?" Rosabella asks curiously.

In the ballroom everyone was decorating for Christmas as Maestro Cadenza and Melody were practicing the music Dexter was looking at Raven hang up holly and mistletoe and got a little nervous at the thought.

"So Roxas, what do you all have planned for Christmas?" Belle asks.

"Well this will be my first Christmas with everyone, but we're having a little party with all our friends." Roxas said.

"What did you do before?" Angelique asks.

"Nothing." Roxas frowns along with Xion.

Melody and Apple look to Roxas wanting to comfort him when the door opens to reveal Beast and Rosabella.

"It's the master." Chip said hiding behind Darling afraid of what might happen.

"Belle." Beast slowly walks up to her. "Can you forgive me?"

Belle looks at him and takes his paw. "Of course. Merry Christmas."

All of them burst into cheers as Beast turns to all of them. "Well what are we all waiting for? Let's give Belle the Christmas she's always wanted." Beast smiles.

Blondie takes out her Mirrorpad. "That's right folks, the Christmas party is on. More to go as we prepare to give Beast and his Beauty a Christmas they will never forget." Blondie said as they all ran out.


That night back in the village Gaston, LeFou and an elderly man were sitting at a table, this was Monsieur D'Argue the manager of the Asylum.

"Gaston I'm not so sure about this." LeFou said.

"Well no one asked you." Gaston growls.

"I don't normally leave the Asylum but you said you'd make it worth my while." D'Argue said as Gaston handed him a large sack of Munny. "I'm listening."

"I have my heart set on marrying Belle, but she needs a little persuading." Gaston said.

"Turned him down flat." LeFou snickers only to be elbowed by Gaston.

"Everyone knows her father is a lunatic. Today is was raving to some children about how Belle is held captive by a Beast in a castle." Gaston said.

"Maurice is harmless." D'Argue said.

"That's not the point! Belle would do anything to keep her father from getting locked up." Gaston said as LeFou looks at him shocked.

"So you want me to throw her father in the Asylum unless she agrees to marry you? Oh that is beyond cruel. I love it." D'Argue laughs.

LeFou watches in horror as he saw darkness surround Gaston and D'Argue.

At his house Maurice was loading his backpack. "If no one will help me I'll find that castle myself. Hang on Belle, I'm coming." Maurice said leaving his house just as Gaston appeared.

"Hello Maurice." Gaston smirks.

"Gaston? What are you doing here? What do you want?" Maurice asks.

"Why I'm here for your permission to marry your daughter." Gaston said.

"Never! You don't deserve someone like my daughter." Maurice glares.

"I thought you might say that." Gaston grins as he reveals an angry mob with torches. Maurice's eyes widen in horror as from that mob two Sergeant and a Solid Armor Heartless emerge and grab Maurice.


Back at Beast's castle Roxas, Daring and Dexter were with Lumiere as they helped prep Beast for the dance tonight.

"I don't know if I can do this." Beast said nervously.

"Wait are you actually scared of something?" Roxas smirks causing Beast to growl.

"You don't have time to be nervous. You must be bold, daring." Lumiere said.

"You can't let fear get in the way of making Belle happy." Dexter said.

"Thank you all for this." Beast smiles.

"Come on, it's rude to keep the ladies waiting." Daring smiles as Beast puts on his blue suit.

Making their way out of the room Roxas, Daring and Dexter look to see Apple, Raven and Rosabella walking out with Belle in a beautiful golden dress.

Walking up Roxas takes Apple's hand, Daring takes Rosabella's and Dexter takes Raven's hands before walking in with Belle and Beast to see Melody and Maestro Cadenza playing music while Darling, Blondie, Xion, Mrs. Potts, Chip, Lumiere, Angelique and Cogsworth were waiting for them.

Belle and Beast walk to the center of the ballroom and Melody began playing the music as everyone began dancing.

(Play Beauty and the Beast)

Tale as old as time

True as it can be

Barely even friends

Then somebody bends

Unexpectedly

Just a little change

Small to say the least

Both a little scared

Neither one prepared

Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same

Ever a surprise

Ever as before

And ever just as sure

As the sun will rise, woah

Ever just the same, oh

And ever a surprise, yeah

Ever as before

And ever just as sure

As the sun will rise

Oh-oh-ooh

Tale as old as time, a-a-ay

Tune as old as song, oh

Bitter-sweet and strange

Finding you can change

Learning you were wrong, woah

Certain as the sun

Rising in the east

Tale as old as time

Song as old as rhyme

Beauty and the Beast

Tale as old as time

Song as old as rhyme

Beauty and the Beast

Woah a-a-ay

Beauty and

Beauty and the Beast

As the song ended Raven and Dexter looked into each other's eyes and smiled as Raven rests her head on his shoulder feeling safe.

"So, Roxas how's this for a first Christmas?" Apple asks.

"Magical." Roxas smiles.

"Rosabella you really did it. How did you make him change his mind?" Daring asks.

"I just helped him the same way I helped you." Rosabella smiles causing Daring to chuckle.

"Look." Blondie whispers as they saw Beast and Belle sitting down on the balcony.

"Belle is everything alright?" Beast asks.

"I wish I could see my father again, just once." Belle frowns.

Beast looks at her and gets up. "Then allow me to give you my present." Beast leads Belle out of the room.

"This mirror will show you anything you want. All you have to do is ask." He said handing her a beautiful hand mirror.

"I'd like to see my father." Belle said as an image of Maurice appeared in the mirror and gasps to see Maurice being grabbed by the angry mob and led into town.

"Oh no, he's in trouble. I-I have to help him." Belle said worried.

"Then you should go to him." Beast said surprising her. "You are no longer my prisoner, you haven't been for a long time."

Belle looks to Beast and hands him back his mirror, but Beast pushes it back. "Take it with you, so you will always find a way to remember this castle."

Belle nods as she runs out of the castle just as the Lumiere and the team arrive.

"Master, what happened?" Lumiere asks.

"Why is Belle leaving?" Darling asks.

"I let her go." Beast said.

"What? Why?" Lumiere asks.

"Because…I love her." Beast said sadly.

Roxas turns to Xion, Darling and Apple. "Go after Belle, make sure nothing hurts her on her way back." Roxas said as they ran out after her.

As Belle climbed onto her horse and left the castle Beast let out a loud roar that echoed throughout the castle.


In town the Heartless threw Maurice into the Asylum carriage.

"Have you ever seen the inside of a Mad House Maurice? You won't last a week. Just give me your daughters hand and I'll set you free." Gaston said.

"Never." Maurice said refusing to hand over his daughter to a monster like him.

Growling in anger Gaston slams the doors shut. "Take him away!" He ordered.

As the carriage was about to take off Belle rushes in with Apple, Darling and Xion right behind her.

"Stop!" Belle yells as the carriage came to a stop. "Papa are you okay?" Belle asks looking inside.

"Belle, I thought I lost you." Maurice smiles.

"Let him go." Darling said.

"Little girl please, you heard him this morning raving about a Beast in a castle the man's insane." Gaston said as the mob agreed with him.

"My father is not crazy and I can prove it!" Belle said taking out the magic mirror Beast gave her. "Show me the Beast."

Holding up the mirror everyone saw an image of Beast roaring scaring the mob.

"Is he dangerous?"

"No, no he'd never hurt anyone. I know he looks dangerous, but he's kind and gentle, he's my friend." Belle smiles looking at Beast.

Glaring Gaston walks over. "If I didn't know any better Belle, I'd say you had feelings for this monster."

"He's not the monster Gaston. You are!" Belle declares pissing him off.

"She's as crazy as the old man. The Beast will make off with your children! He'll come after them in the night! We're no safe until his head is mounted on my wall! I say we kill the Beast!" Gaston declares shocking Belle, Darling, Xion and Apple.

LeFou walks up to Gaston.

"Gaston, with all due respect…."

"Do you want to be next?" Gaston glares.

(Play Mob Song)

We're not safe until he's dead

He'll come stalking us at night

Set to sacrifice our children

To his monstrous appetite

He'll wreak havoc on our village

If we let him wander free

So it's time to take some action, boys

It's time to follow me!

Through the mist, through the wood

Through the darkness and the shadows

It's a nightmare, but it's one exciting ride

Say a prayer, then we're there

At the drawbridge of a castle

And there's something truly terrible inside

It's a beast!

He's got fangs, razor-sharp ones!

Massive paws, killer claws for the feast

Hear him roar! See him foam!

But we're not coming home

'Til he's dead!

Good and dead!

Kill the Beast!

"Stop! Belle rushes over and grabs Gaston's arm. "I won't let you do this!"

"If you're not with us you're against us!" Gaston declares as he Sergeants Heartless grabbed Belle and threw her in the wagon with her father.

"Belle!" Apple, Darling and Xion ran over only to be blocked by Sergeants and Solid Armor.

Light your torch, mount your horse

Screw your courage to the sticking place

We're counting on Gaston to lead the way

Call it war, call it threat

You can bet they all will follow

For in times like this, they'll do just as I say

There's a beast running wild, there's no question

But I fear the wrong monster's released

Sally forth Tally ho Grab your sword Grab your bow

Praise the Lord and here we go!

"We'll lay siege to the castle and bring back his head!" Gaston declares.

Back in town Darling drew her sword and shield as she blocked the Sergeant's kick and rams her shield into its face knocking it to the ground.

"Apple, we need get Xion to carriage to free them!" Darling yells.

"Right. "Thundaga!" Apple releases a powerful bolt of electricity but the Solid Armor takes the hit feeling no damage. "Oh boy."

The Solid Armor jumps in the air and slams into the ground creating a shockwave which knocked Apple, Xion and Darling back.

As the three girls picked themselves up they looked to see the three Heartless approaching.

From the window of the carriage Belle was watching the whole thing.

"They need to win, we need to go back and warn him." Belle said.

"You want to go back? How did you escape?" Maurice asks.

"I didn't escape Papa, he let me go." Belle smiles.

We don't like

What we don't understand

In fact it scares us

And this monster is mysterious at least

Bring your guns

Bring your knives

Save your children and your wives

We'll save our village and our lives

We'll kill the Beast!

At Beast's castle the team was sitting in a room with the staff who were all feeling bad about Belle leaving.

"I knew it! I knew it was foolish to get our hopes up." Cogsworth said.

"Maybe it would be better if she had never come at all." Lumiere said.

"This Christmas is a disaster." Angelique frowns.

"Uh guys, you might want to see this." Blondie said as she, Roxas, Daring, Melody, Dexter, Rosabella and Raven were looking out the window.

"Could it be?" Lumiere asks.

"Is it she?" Mrs. Potts asks as they all looked to the window to see Gaston's mob.

"Sacre Blue! Invaders!" Lumiere gasps.

"Encroachers!" Cogsworth said.

"And they have the mirror." Mrs. Potts said noticing Gaston.

"It's him." Daring growls.

"Alright team get ready for battle." Roxas said.

"Warn the master. If it's a fight they want, we'll be ready for them!" Cogsworth said as they ran out.

Raise the flag

Sing the song

Here we come, we're fifty strong

And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong

Let's kill the Beast!

Rushing to his chamber Daring and Rosabella opened the door.

"Beast!" Daring said getting his attention.

"Leave me in peace." Beast said softly.

"But we're under attack." Rosabella said.

"I don't care. Let them come." Beast said as the rose was down to just 3 petals.

Kill the Beast!

Kill the Beast!

Down below the staff of the castle were struggling to hold back the mob as they were banging on the door.

"This isn't working." Raven said as Roxas pauses to think.

"Wait I've got an idea." Roxas said quickly.

Kill the Beast!

The mob breaks through the castle door and look to see the staff scattered around acting like normal objects. Up above Roxas, Melody, Dexter, Raven and Blondie were waiting for the right moment.

"NOW!" Roxas yells as everyone sprang to life and attacked the mob.

As Gaston and LeFou made their way to the staircase Roxas summoned Storm Condor, Dexter readied his Plasma blasters, Raven had magic surround her hands and Melody readied her Battle Mix.

"You." Gaston glares.

"Didn't anyone ever teach it's rude to show up at someone's castle uninvited?" Melody asks.

"Didn't anyone ever teach you to mind your business?" Gaston asks when Maestro Cadenza rushes towards them about to slam on them, but at the last second Gaston pushes LeFou in front of him and he slams down on top of him.

"Gaston. Help." LeFou groans.

"Sorry old friend it's hero time." Gaston turns to the team from Ever After.

"How could you do that to your own friend?" Dexter asks.

"Like I need to justify myself to you. Belle is mine and I will destroy anyone who gets in my way!" Gaston yells as darkness surrounds him and from it the Shadow Stalker Heartless appeared.

Roaring the Shadow Stalker rams into Roxas, Dexter, Raven and Melody knocking them into the ballroom where it turned the entire room into its domain.


Back in the village Apple, Darling and Xion were scrambling to avoid being crushed by the Solid Armor from above and the Sergeants in front of them.

Xion and Darling swing their Keyblade and Sword knocking the two Sergeants backwards. As the Solid Armor was about to jump Apple raises her staff.

"Confuse!" A bright light shines into it's eyes as the Solid Armor jumps into the air but crushes the Sergeants instead destroying them.

"Yes!" Darling grins seeing they had a chance. Sprinting forward Darling stabs the Solid Armor into the face causing it to fall to the ground. "Xion now!"

"Icicle Shatter!" Xion blasts the Solid Armor with multiple blocks of ice destroying it.

Using this chance she runs up and uses her Keyblade to unlock the carriage.

"Come on, we don't have a second to waste." Belle said as they left to the castle.


At the castle Blondie was ducking behind furniture as she recorded the battle going on firsthand.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight." Chip counted as he hit them with plates, he kicked at them.

"Out of our castle!" Angelique said as she threw multiple ornaments causing them to trip.

Madame de Garderobe jumped from the top level and smashes down knocking mob members back before dressing them in dresses. Maestro Cadenza was firing his piano keys at them and Mrs. Potts was pouring hot water on them.

Blondie grins not noticing a member of the mob member behind her.

"Duck!" Blondie turns around to see LeFou punch him in the face knocking him to the ground.

"Thanks for that." Blondie said.

"I used to be on Gaston's side, but we are so in a bad place right now." LeFou smiles.

"He doesn't deserve someone like you." Blondie said.

"Right, shall we go help them?" LeFou gestures.

"That sounds just right." Blondie nods.

In the ballroom the Shadow Stalker jumps into the windows and shoots pillars of purple flames at them from each of the windows.

"Incoming!" Raven said as she fired purple fireballs of her own, Dexter fires plasma blasts and Melody shoots music notes canceling out the attacks.

As the Shadow Stalker jumps out of the windows Roxas blasts it with a tornado from Storm Condor sending it crashing into the wall.

"Get it!" Roxas yells as the 4 of them blast it at the same time causing it to scream in pain.

All of them grin as the thought this was won until the Shadow Stalker surrounded itself with a ball of darkness, when the ball disappeared the Shadow Stalker transformed into the Dark Thorn.

"It looks just like the Beast." Raven said surprised.

"And I bet it's nearly as strong." Melody said when the Dark Thorn disappeared.

"Where did it—oomph!" Dexter never got to finish as he got knocked to the ground.

"Dexter!" Raven gasps. Looking around she noticed dark footsteps rushing towards her. Firing Purple lightning she zaps the Dark Thorn inflicting damage. "Pay attention to where it walks and then attack from there." Raven said as all of them understood.

Making his way through the rooms Gaston had his gun ready in one hand a sword in the other. Opening up a room he saw Beast just staring at his rose as another petal fell off leaving only 1 petal left.

Sighing he turns to Gaston who raises his gun. "Hello Beast." Gaston pulls the trigger and fires a bullet, but at the last second Rosabella summons her shield and blocks the bullet. "How in the?"

He was interrupted as Daring rushed in with a sword and clashed with Gaston before delivering a kick knocking Gaston backwards.

Gaston growls as he saw Daring and Rosabella stand between him and Beast.

"Get out of my way." Gaston glares.

"Leave him alone." Rosabella glares back.

"Beast snap out of it! We need you." Daring said as Beast looked the teenagers willing to risk their lives for him.

"Did you love her Beast? Tell me, why on earth would you think someone like her would choose you, when she had someone like me?" Gaston said sprinting towards them. Daring swings his sword and locked it with Gaston's. "I'm not about to let some brats get in between me and my destiny." Gaston elbows Daring in the gut and swings his sword at Rosabella.

Quickly raising her shield Rosabella blocks the attack, but the force knocks her to the ground.

He was about to raise his sword to strike her again when Beast roars and tackles Gaston out the window and onto the castle roofs.

Meanwhile down below Belle, Darling, Apple and Xion had arrived to see the mob being driven off by the staff, Blondie and LeFou.

"And stay out!" Blondie said as Belle ran past them.

"I have to get to Beast!" Belle said.

"He's still upstairs." Mrs. Potts said.

In the ballroom Raven and Dexter were on the higher level of the Ballroom near the chandelier. "Raven I'm not so sure." Dexter said nervously.

"Dexter are friends need us. You can do this. I know you can." Raven said grabbing his hand.

Dexter takes a deep breath. "Alright, let's do this."

Both of them jump off the ledge and grab onto the chandelier, using both their body weights they spin knocking into the Dark Thorn undoing its invisibility power.

"Roxas now!" Raven yells.

Roxas rushes towards the Dark Thorn and was about to slam his keyblade into it when the Dark Thorn grabs the blade surprising him. Lifting Roxas into the air it throws him hard across the room sending him smashing into the glass.

"Roxas!" Melody gasps.

As the three of them fire dark magic, plasma blasts and music notes the Dark Thorn is hit by all before it releases a powerful roar stunning them before rushing towards them and swinging his claws knocking all of them to the ground.

As Roxas gets up he notices the Dark Thorn growling as it was about to charge at him.

Roxas looks to his friends and growls. "I was about to enjoy my first Christmas since existing with my friends and I was really looking forward to it." Roxas said as his friends in the castle and back at Ever After High started to glow surprising all of them.

"Ally Drive!" Roxas yells as his coat turned blank white and in his hand a new keyblade formed. It had the buildings of Ever After High as the guard with the school logo in the middle, the blade was Oathkeeper's, the key at the end belonged to Oblivion and dangling from the Keychain was the storybook of legends.

All of Roxas's friends looks in awe at Roxas's new form.

"Raven!" Roxas yells as his outfit turned dark purple and dark energy surrounded his keyblade.

Slamming it into the ground a pillar of purple flames erupted burning the Dark Thorn. Turning invisible the Dark Thorn charged at him.

"Cerise!" Roxas yells as his outfit changed from purple to red. As the Dark Thorn appeared in front of him Roxas dashed out of the way at an incredible speed.

"Whoa." Melody said in awe watching Roxas sprint towards it.

Appearing in front of it Roxas stabs it in chest. "Amora!" Roxas yells as his out turns teal and green. Stabbing his keyblade into the Dark Thorn's chest it let out scream. "Faith!" 5 pillars of light erupted causing the Dark Thorn to disappear into darkness.

"Whoa, did you see that?" Dexter asks.

"Roxas was able to use our moves." Raven said as Roxas drops to his knees.

Rushing over Melody and Dexter helped him up. "Are you okay?" Melody asks.

"Sorry guess this one takes a lot out of me." Roxas smirks.

"Whoa. That is one amazing Keyblade." Dexter said looking at his new one.

"It's an Ever After High Keyblade." Roxas said as they all made their way out of the ballroom and to help the others.

Up on the roofs Beast and Gaston were duking it out with Daring and Rosbella watching from the top.

Gaston swings his sword hoping to cut Beast in two.

"It's over Beast! Belle is mine!" Gaston declares when Beast punches him in the face and grabs him by the neck and holds him over the edge ready to drop him.

"No, no please. Don't hurt me. Please don't hurt me. I'll give you anything." Gaston said begging like a coward.

"Beast stop! He's not worth it!" Daring calls out.

"Don't be the monster they think you are!" Rosabella calls out.

Hearing what they said Beast knew they were right. Bringing Gaston in he growls as he pulls him in close. "Get out." Beast said before letting go of him just as Belle ran up to Daring and Rosabella.

"Beast!" Belle calls out causing him to look up and smile.

"Belle." He climbs up the tower towards her and the two of them touch hands. "You came back."

Daring and Rosabella were moved by this beautiful reunion when Beast was suddenly stabbed in the back by Gaston.

All of them gasp as they ran to grab Beast to stop him from falling over the edge. Gaston however wasn't so lucky. He missteps and slips off the roof and plummets down into the ravine below and to his death.

Running up the stairs the team, Mrs. Potts, Lumiere and Cogsworth look with horrified expressions on their faces as their master was being laid down.

"You…came back." Beast said weakly.

"Of course I came back I couldn't…oh this is all my fault if only I had gotten here sooner." Belle said sadly.

"Maybe…it's better this way." Beast said.

"Don't talk like that. We're tighter again, it's going to be alright." Belle said trying to make him feel better.

Beast lifts his hand up and cups Belle's cheek. "At least I got to see you one last time."

All of them look in shock to see Beast's hand hit the ground.

As Rosabella started to cry Daring held her close.

"No, please, please don't leave me." Belle sobs. "I love you." She said as last petal fell from the Enchanted Rose.

As all of them sobbed at what was possibly the worse Christmas ever a light suddenly shot down and then more came as Beast was lifted into the air.

"Rosabella." Daring said gesturing for her to look.

All of them stared in awe as Beast was transformed into a human male with brown hair leaving everyone from Ever After High speechless.

"Belle…it's me." He said.

Belle looks into his eyes and sees they were the same blue eyes as the Beasts. "It is you." Belle smiles as the two of them lean in and kiss.

As they did a bright light engulfed the castle turning everyone human again.

Everyone looked so happy when they noticed the sun was rising on this happy day.

"Merry Christmas Belle." The former Beast said.

"Merry Christmas." Belle said as they kissed again.


In front of the Tempest everyone was saying goodbye to Belle, the Prince, the staff, Maurice and LeFou.

"Are you all sure you can't stay for Christmas? You're all more than welcome after what you did for us." Lumiere said.

"Thanks but we have our own Christmas to get back to." Xion said.

"We hope you all live Happily Ever After." Apple said.

"Thank you…for everything. Rosabella." Prince said getting her attention. "Belle and want to give you something."

Rosabella walks forward as they turn around to reveal a full restored enchanted Rose.

"What, but how did?" She asks.

"When the spell was reversed the rose changed into its original form and after helping me regain my love for Christmas and for helping save my life. I want you to have it." Prince said handing to Rosabella.

Looking at the rose Rosabella smiled widely as she hugged both the Prince and Belle.

"I'll treasure it always." Rosabella said.

"I know you will." Belle smiles.


Back at Ever After High everyone was celebrating at the school's Christmas party.

Food was being eaten, games were being played and of course presents were exchanged.

Roxas and the others open their present from Phineas and Ferb to see matching jackets with the name Forever After Fighters on the back.

"What's this?" Roxas asks.

"Ferb came up with the name, we thought since you guys should have a cool name since you guys do so much." Phineas said.

"I like it." Namine said as they all put on their new team jackets.

"Hey Roxas, we're up." Melody said as she gestured for him.

Walking up on stage Roxas and Melody each grabbed a mic causing the crowd to cheer.

"Now as some of you know this Christmas is the first one that Xion, Namine and I have ever had and I gotta say. Thank you all for this.

After singing Roxas went over to the snack tables and got cup of hot chocolate. Looking at his hand he couldn't help but think of the new keyblade he unlocked with his new Drive form.

Concentrating he summoned the keyblade into his hand. "Let's see…you're gonna need a name. How about Forever After." Roxas smiles.

Little did he know a mistletoe was suspended over his head and this didn't go unnoticed by Apple, Namine, Cerise, Poppy, Melody, Maddie, Amora and Briar.

Looking at each other the 8 girls shoot each other glares before Cerise tried making a sprint towards Roxas with the other right behind her.

As Roxas was about to leave the 8 girls rush him and try to kiss him.

On the other side of the room Rosabella was looking at the Enchanted Rose she got with a big smile on her face when she felt a tap on her shoulder.

Turning around she saw Daring holding up a gift. "Uh Merry Christmas."

"Oh thank you. Wait. This isn't just a picture of you is it?" Rosabella asks raising an eyebrow.

"Not gonna lie that was a thought, but no." Daring said as she opened it to reveal a small glass case. "It's uh to keep your rose safe."

"I love it." Rosabella said as she leaned in and kissed Daring on the cheek causing him to blush.

At the tables Dexter looks to Raven and took a deep breath before walking over.

"Uh hey Raven. I uh thought you might like some cake." Dexter said holding up two plates.

"I'm not gonna say no." Raven said as he sat down next to her. "Pretty wild Christmas huh?"

"Yeah, most people just have to worry about gift wrapping while we had to fight off an angry mob." Dexter said causing Raven to chuckle.

"Still, it was worth it in the end. Seeing Beast, Belle and everyone in the castle be lifted from their curse." Raven said.

"Yeah that was quite a sight." Dexter agrees.

As all of them were laughing and having an amazing time. Santa from Christmas town was flying above the school on his sleigh.

"Ho, ho, ho. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night." Santa said as he flew away.
