While the citizens of Dimmsdale were enjoying their second day of Christmas, along the roads an RV was driven, heading out of the suburban city. Inside the RV at the Driver's seat, sat Norm as he drove the vehicle. The genie disguised himself as a normal person, having legs and feet in lieu of the wispy stuff that usually accompanies genies from their bottom half.
"You know…" Norm began to state as he drove the vehicle, "I've never driven a vehicle till now…feeling weird compared to…well…just doing my normal thing of getting around." He remarked with a remarkable look of genuine interest. Peering over at Ricky as the Teen sat beside him on the passenger seat, the teen kicked his feet up on the dashboard with the seat back and his hands resting behind his head, "Feels weird." he added.
Ricky offered Norm an amused smirk and sideways glance, "Well glad I wished you to instantly learn how to drive! Figured you could tag along on this bizarre christmas adventure!"
Norm offered Ricky a haphazard shrug as he kept his eyes on the road, "Meh, trust me kid, I've lived a long while, it's going to have to beat centuries of adventures my wishers had with me."
Ricky, expressing a more curious look towards Norm, he asked the Genie, "Like what? I mean, what would top saving Christmas from a naive kid's wish for everyday to be Christmas?" he asked.
"Hmm…" Norm shrugged again and spoke again, "Well, there was a time where my wisher wanted to overthrow the French royal family that was full of Pixies. The guy should have just stopped being fine with ruling his french people…"
"Huh…" Ricky murmured with a surprised look, "what other adventures would top that?" he followed up asking.
Norm answered the teen as he began listing off various other wishers that used him, "There was the Vlad guy that wanted to fight the magical gremlin dynasty, and ended up becoming the first vampire…guy really made a specific wish right there…" He mused while using his other hand to rub his chin in thought, leaving the steering wheel to magically steer itself.
Ricky cracked an amused grin, "Heh, What's next, Ghangis Khan wanted to fight and conquer the world, and end up fighting fairies?" he joked.
"Nah." Norm shook his head, and looked at Ricky while placing his hand back onto the steering wheel, "That was the First Emperor of China. His three wishes never even broached asking for immortality in the end…kinda ironic he had me and never asked for it, and in the end sought for it after he lost me and my lamp after the three wishes were up."
"...so what did Ghangis Khan ask for then?" Ricky asked, giving Norm a narrowed look.
With a hapless shrug, Norm answered the teen, "An amusement park, a family big enough to last forever, and a big heaping pile of ice cream."
"...the guy was rather simple…wasn't he…" Ricky deadpanned, before cracking a grin once more and guffawing to himself, "History is way stranger than fiction than I realized! Hah!" He cackled in amusement.
Before either could continue talking however, a harsh knock from the driver's cabin of the RV, which separated the Driver and passenger from the rest of the vehicle and gave them the privacy to talk unbothered.
The door opened to the driver's cab, it was Ricky's werewolf father as he peered into the driver cab with a glare at his son, "Ricky, get back here and entertain your girlfriend." He ordered, leaving the teen to suddenly sputter uncharastically, while causing some minor mayhem outside at the mere mention of the possibility of the two being in a relationship yet.
Outside, a building collapsed in on itself as the RV passed by it, while several people within a good distance of the RV that were playing in the snow tripped and fell for no reason; a few cars on the other hand spun out of control and crashed into buildings while above in the sky, snow clouds cracked open like eggs and deposited snow in heaps.
Ricky waved his hands around as he sat up, "Dad! Come on! You can't just say that! We're only sixteen! And besides! The world isn't…I mean, I don't think either me or Vicky are ready for that commitment yet!" The teen exclaimed, a rare moment of his craziness not being present.
"Hmm." Ricky's dad glared at his son, before thumbing his claw behind him, "doesn't matter, just entertain your friend then." he ordered, before grabbing his son by the hem of his shirt, and throwing him behind him with a loud crash.
While his son was busy picking himself up inside the RV, Viance allowed himself into the driver's cab and sat in the passenger seat. A moment of silence passed between the werewolf and genie before Vance spoke to Norm with a growl, "So what sort of wishes did my son ask for?" he suddenly asked while the door was shut, giving Norm some private time with Ricky's father.
Norm, expressing some surprise that the supernatural Werewolf already found him out, shrugged while giving Vincent a sideways look, "Well, besides the infinite wish…quite a few things…and no, it wasn't money…your kid's been quite legit in his business." he remarked.
"Hmm. Good…" Viance mused, a proud smirk spreading across his mouth with his pointed teeth showing.
Chester was having the best Christmas ever! Nothing topped finding out his own dad was a Vampire Hunter! "So Abraham Lincoln was one as well!?" He asked, after hearing how behind the politics of the Civil war, Abraham Lincoln went toe to toe with Vlad the Vampire, after the dude came back from his centuries of rest.
"Yup!" Bucky answered, the two of them sat at the booth table of the RV while in the background the other occupants were busy doing other things, Vicky was busying herself with playing some tetris on her phone while Ricky's mother was fixing lunch for later.
"Ya see son, our family goes way back, and your great great granddaddy was cousins of the president of the time!" Bucky added with a proud look, before giving his son a stern look, "But remember, son, this is the sort of thing you keep a secret. I mean, while I doubt anyone would believe you, I think it is best you keep this matter of family business a secret." he winked at his son.
"No kidding!" Chester remarked with a chuckle, "No way Timmy or AJ would believe my dad or family hunted vampires!"
While the two of them were talking, Vance had tossed Ricky from out of the Driver's cab and entered it himself to talk with Ricky's fellow business partner while shutting the door behind him.
As Ricky picked himself up from the floor and brushed himself off, he walked towards Vicky with a cheerful smirk, "Hey Vicky, my dad thinks you and I are boyfriend and girlfriend, isn't that crazy!" he said as he waltzed over to the teen girl.
The mere implication of the chaos that was the possibility of the relationship between the two, caused strange chaotic sounds to echo from outside.
Chester wasn't sure what that noise was, but he stood up on his booth seat and peered out of his window to see what was going on, and saw some wrecked cars and upside-down billboards that had swung off their frames, "What was that about!?" He questioned, getting answered by his dad.
"That Chester my boy, is the sound of a loving chaotic mess. But I'll explain it better when you're older!" Bucky answered his son with an amused smirk.
