"What? But why?" Jen asked, getting teary eyed when I began packing our stuff from what I brought from our old home. Matt had the same look on his face but didn't say anything.

"Because if we don't then alot of people we love will get hurt and we don't want that." I responded.

Jen was about to argue again before Matt covered her mouth and asked ", ok. Your right. We don't want that but if we leave then won't they be more vulnerable? "

I shook my head ", no because it'll seem like they mean nothing to us and we know that's not true. No one knows about this so we can't say anything alright. "

"Ok."

Jen nodded solemnly.

"Okay, who covered the entire house in blinking lights? People already think we're weird, we don't need to shine a light on it." Bree said, just as I came downstairs with Matt and Jen. I was in awe with the decorations and the lights, I really never understood why people ever did this and now I do. It's heartwarming really.

"I did that! I want to make sure Santa Claus comes to our house first!" Adam said, wearing a Santa suit and hat but doesn't Santa wear a beard.

"Santa? Don't you mean the fat dude who knows when your sleeping and when your awake. Sounds like a creepy stalker to me." Jen commented, speeding over to the couch.

"Adam...we all love Christmas but I think you're going a little overboard," Bree looked over to Jen ", yes, the creepy fat dude is coming to give you presents and no he's not a stalker. He's magical."

Matt brightened ", he is?!"

Bree nodded as I walked over to her and whispered ", thanks for playing along."

"No problem. "

Suddenly I heard a couple of loud thuds before the front door opened and Chase came hopping into the house like a glow in the dark stop sign.

Jen brightened up and asked me ", Mia, can I do that to Matt."

"Yeah, can she! Please!"

I waved my hand ", go knock yourselves out."

Adam looked over at Chase as my siblings ran out the front door ",Hey get back up on the roof! You're ruining my display!"

"You're lucky a raccoon chewed me free!"

Suddenly their phones went off ", That's an urgent mission alert, we have to get to the lab!"

All of them rushed downstairs as Chase asked, still covered in lights ",Uh, a little help?"

I rolled my eyes and ran over to help him.

"Well, aren't you a sight for soar eyes," I teased, starting from the loose cord at the bottom of his feet.

He laughed sarcastically ", ha ha, very funny Falcon but you have twice the work to do when your siblings get back."

Suddenly Jen and Matt walked through the front door covered in ashes. I opened my mouth to say something till Jen shook her head as Matt sneezed, making his hair spark.

I looked back over to Chase ", you just had to jinx it, didn't you?"

Chase just shrugged innocently as I slapped his shoulder making him topple over.

"Oops."

______________________________________

"Can't believe you two." I mumbled, walking downstairs to the lab once I finished up with my siblings. Those two had ashes where ashes shouldn't venture...at all!

"Dr. Evans are you there?" I heard Mr. Davenport ask as a bunch of static was heard on the other side of whatever he was talking on. After a while, another voice was heard ",Yeah I'm here! Although there's been a major volcanic eruption nearby and we're experiencing aftershocks!I'm afraid if we don't act fast-" and suddenly the signal was gone.

That's when I walked inside the lab to make myself known.

"Oh Merry Christmas to you too Doctor Evans...Rude." Adam mumbled offended.

Mr. Davenport sighed ", Sorry guys, I know the timing is not ideal."

"It's okay Mr. Davenport. We know what we have to do."

"Yeah! Let's crack open some egg nog and hit it hard after the New Year." Adam cheered, running out of the room in excitement. I was sort of upset but I pushed that feeling aside and plastered on a smile. The timing may be a total fail but you know, it's still mean if I just think about myself so I'll cheer and not be another problem they have to deal with.

"I can't believe you guys have to go on a mission on Christmas Eve," Leo wined, before turning over to Mr. Davenport ", Just to be clear, I don't have to wait for them to open up my presents, right?"

"Well I'm not going to let this ruin my Christmas spirit so... I will be wearing my Santa hat." Adam said happily, putting on a hat.

Chase raised an eyebrow ", Really Adam? A Santa hat with a mission suit."

"Hey, if the ladies at the bank can wear them to work, so can I."

"I can't re-establish contact with Doctor Evans. The volcano must have knocked out satellite communications. This giant ash cloud plunged the area in total darkness. There is no way rescue teams can get through."

"Well that means Doctor Evans is trapped."

"Eh, he's better off. Airports are pact this time of year." I gave Adam a bewildered look to hide my small smile.

"There's an automated transport ready to take you up there but without satellite communications, Leo, Mia and I won't be on the com set."

"Well it will be tough navigating through a mission without the constant sound of Leo chomping on carrot sticks," Chase said as Leo turned around, chomping on carrots.

"Hey, you know I'm a stress eater!"

And then then they were gone for Christmas.

____________________________________

"And the Grinch grew a heart twice as big? I don't get it?" Matt said confused once I finished reading 'The Grinch Who Stole Christmas'.

Jen groaned ", it's a metaphor you numbscull!"

"Then why did it show a picture of his heart growing?" Matt argued back as another bickering war began.

Standing up, I walked over to Leo and mumbled ", I'm never having kids."

Suddenly the doorbell rang.

"Oh I got it! Must be grandma with her holiday feast or perhaps some carolers have come to spread some holiday cheer. Merry-" Leo was cut off by a voice I hoped I wouldn't hear on Christmas.

"Hey Dooley." Perry greeted making me freeze and slowly turn around. Leo slammed the door shut and whispered yelled ", Code red! Turn off the lights, everybody hide!"

Tasha rolled her eyes as she opened the door and greeted the woman. Mr. Davenport on the other hand said ", Leo's right. I'll be behind the tree."

Tasha pulled him back as if to have backup.

"Sorry to bother you but I ran into some car trouble doing one of my favorite yule tide traditions."

"Oh, driving around looking at Christmas lights?" Tasha suggested.

Perry rolled her eyes ", No... I was tearing through puddles, trying to splash carolers. Took a corner too fast and accidentally ran over some of your decorations."

She picked up a ran over Santa Claus and said ", Ho ho ho, here you go."

"Nice aim. What are you driving, a tractor?"

Perry ignored him", I'm stuck. I popped a tire and can't get any cell phone service up here on rich man mountain."

Leo handed himself and I, a hot chocolate before walking towards Perry as she snatched his and began talking on the phone.

"What? Oh great! There's only one driver tonight and there's thirty people ahead of me!"

Without saying anything, I grabbed my red leather jacket and walked out. To be honest, I didn't want to deal with her drama. I already have enough on my own and I don't need more piled on.

A blast of cold air hit me, making me cuddle closer with my jacket. I wasn't cold though, it was like instinct. A human instinct. Supers aren't really human so they don't usually feel the way I do. Neither do villans, they don't feel guilt. So...why do I feel so human...so normal. When I met Leo, sure I was loyal, nice, respectful and showed no remorse for anything insensitive I've done but when I met the Davenport's it was so life changing.

When I met Adam I thought he was the biggest goof in the history of goofs but as time went on, he evolved as this observant, loyal, and very sweet person that I've grown to get attached to. You will never see Adam back out of a fight when it involves his family and sometimes he'll even defend me in my time of need.

Bree seemed insane and insecure like any average wanna be popular but after really getting to know her, she wasn't insecure and a wannabe. She was a strong and independent, sometimes very sarcastic girl that I could never get bored of because she always had something to talk about.

When I met Chase, I thought he was attractive but the thing is that he seemed so full of it and smug that I didn't really think we'd ever be friends but now look at us. He's one of my closest friends and even if he talks alot, he also listens and sometimes we can spend hours in silence without feeling uncomfortable or wierd.

Leo has been my best friend and practically brother ever since we met in second grade. I can't imagine my life without him, probably because he's been in my life since we were around 7 years old. He's dealt with my Explosiva outbursts and I've dealt with his emotional phase with the divorce of his parents. We've been through the craziest roller coaster anyone could ever think of and yet we're still best friends.

Tasha has always been the one woman I've looked up to when my mother isn't there. She's helped me through so much and yet she doesn't make me feel like I'm a burden. More like the daughter she never had and she was the mother I always wanted my mom to be.

When I first met Mr. Davenport, I absolutely loathed him. He was just so full of himself and he locked his kids in a basement! I was just furious that this man would be the new roll model for Leo. That is, until after a few weeks, I began to notice that he didn't lock them away because he felt like it. He did it to protect them. He gave up alot of things, just to support the three and keep them as happy as possible.

These people have done so much for me and yet, here I am, leaving Mission Creek. Leaving everything I know and love behind just to keep them safe and yet I feel so guilty. This is for them and I will come back, once the Senari thing blows over which I'm hoping is soon. If my brother were here, he would tell me a small quote that may make sense or not but would still mean something. I can actually see him say it in my head.

"You don't have a home, until you just miss it."

I haven't even left yet I haven't missed them more than I ever thought I could. Their my family, and family does anything to protect the ones they love, even if it's leaving them for who knows how long.

"I wish this was easy." I groaned, falling on the grass on the Davenport's front lawn. Looking up, I saw stars but there was to much light to see them well. Only 2 or 3 could be seen.

Suddenly I felt something cold underneath my hand, as if it was ice or turning into....

I looked down at my hand immediately and saw ice forming on the grass. Lifting my hand, I raised it up in the air and all of a sudden, ice shoots up and soon it begins to snow. The next thing you know, the ice burns up and turns into mini flames and right as it was about to touch the ground, it turns into water.

I smiled before looking down at my watch. It's midnight.

"Wow," I mumbled before looking up at the sky ", Merry Christmas guys. Hope your having a somewhat better Christmas than I am."

____________________________________

"I'm back." I announced but suddenly regret it when I heard snoring coming from a tent. Probably it's Perry but hey, not like I care much. Walking over to the stalkings I placed in their small gifts before putting them under the tree.

"I don't get it?" Jen said as we finished watching 'The Polar Express' down in the lab. Matt and Jen dragged me down here because they didn't want to stay with, and I quote ", the red haired leprechaun lady." I followed because they were right. I didn't either.

"Well, the boy has the privilege to meet Santa. Duh!" Matt said, as if it was obvious and that's when the bickering began.

Suddenly I heard the elevator doors open as Leo and Mr. Davenport entered frustrated.

"What's up with you two?" I asked amused. Leo just groaned as Mr. Davenport answered ", Perry is starting to really get on my nerves! "

I rolled my eyes and took out 'The Polar Express' before entering the 'Grinch Who Stole Christmas' movie. Mr. Davenport sat besides us all as we all began to watch the movie. Fell asleep after that.

"Wake up sleepy head!" I heard someone shout in my ear, making me wince and open my eyes. I yawned and slowly stretched before I shrieked happily and jumped out of my seat.

"Your here? Since when!" I yelled, giving them all a hug. Bree laughed and answered ", since a few minutes ago! I'm so happy to be back with my BFF!"

"Yep, and I'm happy that I got to yell her BFF awake." Adam said proudly, making me roll my eyes.

"And I'm just happy to be here and not with Dr. Evans." Chase concluded. Bree just shook her head at me in a 'Don't Ask' manner.

Soon we all walked upstairs to join everyone else. Suddenly something amazing hit our noses making us rush upstairs.

"We smell food."

"What are you doing?" Leo asked as we all saw principal Perry cooking in their kitchen.

"What's it look like, I'm making dinner." She answered, as if it was obvious. By then, I grabbed a napkin and began writing down some 'notes'.

Adam hesitantly yelled ",We've had enough of this. Get out!"

"Principal Perry this is amazing." Tasha praised, walking towards her.

"Well I didn't see you making anything." Perry said in a sort of sarcastic tone

"Wow! I can't believe you actually did something nice."

"It's a Christmas miracle."

"Ah it's nothing. I figured, since I crashed your holiday, it was the least I could do." Perry said nicely. This is no miracle, it's a...nightmare. Not to be mean but why isn't Perry mean. I was so expecting that for some reason. Don't ask.

"It's actually a swan from the pond, down the street. You could just walk right up to them."

"Please tell me that's not coming from the oven." Mr. Davenport asked/pleaded her.

"The Christmas tree is one big scratching post for those cats."

And the rest was too gruesome for me to continue.

"Principal Perry, thank you so much for this meal," Tasha said as they all ate dinner. I didn't want to eat for many reasons. Main one is that I don't trust Principal Perry.

"Oh you're welcome," she took out a paper ",I'll take that whenever you're ready."

"What's this?"

"Uh, you bill," she responded, obviously.

"I see you included tax, tip and the cost of a new tire."

"Sorry, gratuity is included for parties of six or more. I have no say in that."

"You're actually gonna charge us for dinner?"

"I didn't make this meal with love. I made it with skill, sweat and whatever came off the tip of my pinky when I was chopping the veggies." Everyone began to gag and even if it was a disgusting sight, I sucked it up and gave Principal Perry my paper.

She looked at me bewildered ", what's this?"

"That is your bill for staying at hotel de Davenport. Trespassing and destroying property, using room service to your comfort, and the cost of pet housing. Also, I added tax, tip, and the cost of a new Santa Claus. I'll take that whenever your ready." I leaned back, crossing my arms while smirking.

Perry looked at the paper, then back at me, then down at the paper before stuttering an excuse and ran out of the house.

Mr. Davenport patted my shoulder ", I always knew you had a makings of a lawyer. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to wash my mouth with soap."

____________________________________

"Let's go you guys." I said, pulling our stuff into the cab. Jen and Matt frowned as they got in, slowly looking over the davenport household. I couldn't look at the house, it was to hard to do so. Once I stepped inside, I told the cab driver where to and soon enough we were beginning to leave.

"I'm going to miss this place." Matt said quietly.

I looked out the window as the car began to drive away ",so am I."
