'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, not a Yokai stirring, not even Signibble. I wish I could be telling that story but with Yokai, but apparently, when you have the Yokai Watch, you wish for things to be Pheonix Mode, but Get Lunatic+ Classic instead. So what's been happening so far? Well this Yokai called Gargaros stole every yokai's presents, including the ones Opal got for me and somehow mine. No clue how that even works,but now I'm being hunted down by every Yokai in this thing called "Terror Time" to try and scare me into going back home. Well, it isn't working. I think of things much worse than this. I had summoned all of the medals I had and we got split up by the roar of Gargaros. I was hiding in a trash can,trying to sneak by some Signibble and Leadoni, as Opal called them. I was so close to approaching Gargaros' throne to get back the presents when the big,red orge himself found me in the trash can. He knocked off the lid and picked me up with two fingers.
"What are you going to do? Tell me to get out of your swamp?" I asked
"My god... Did you have to reference that movie. God I hated Shrek..." He replied, placing me on the arm of his throne.
"So why did you steal all of the presents, including mine?" I asked
"Did I steal your presents from your parents? I'm so sorry. All I wanted to do is be the Yokai Santa, but no.... Ol' Saint Trick has to be the Yokai Santa....and all I get to do is scare kids back home. I never wanted to do that. Kids make mistakes, it's human nature and a learning experience." He seemed concerned that he stole my presents as he went on his little rant.
"Well, why don't you just talk to him and ask him if you can be an assistant?" I replied.
"Everyone's too afraid of me. They never listen."
"I see. Just tell them that you just want to talk and not be a scary monster."
"Thanks kid. I'll give back the presents."
"Your welcome." He puts me on the ground and walks me out to where my yokai pals were.
"There you are!" Opal said concerningly as she hugged me.
"Well, I got the job done." I replied
"With or without violence?" Spooknyan asked.
"Without. He's returning all of the presents. Now let's get home." We started walking, with Opal and Dimmy holding the presents that were for me, and as we left all the yokai were telling us "Merry Christmas." It was nice, as I never felt this much joy back home, as the kids around me were -
"Xe, quit with the swearing thoughts." Slitheref said, obviously knowing what I was going to say next.
"I'm trying." I replied. We returned every yokai back to their place, with Happiere and Dismerelda went off on their way. By the time I was home, it was just me and Opal holding the presents.
"You found the presents!" My parents said.
"Yeah, they were down the street. Probably an animal took them, looking for warmth." I replied, hiding the yokai situation that occured.
"By the way, this was dropped off before you got home." They handed me a small, red box as they took the packages from my hands.
"Thanks." I replied with before heading to my room. Opal was close behind me as I closed the door to my bedroom.
"Wonder what it is?" Opal asked as she sat on my bed.
"No clue. Let's open it." I replied as I took off the red bow holding it together. I opened it to find a medal with a note, both from Gargaros.
Thanks for the help kid. I finally told them and I'm a helper for Ol' Saint Trick on bi yearly schedule. Use this if you need my help at any time.
"Wow! You just befriended one of the biggest and baddest yokai there is just like that!" Opal said as she read the note.
"Well, there are such things as Christmas miracles Opal." I smiled. "There are such things as Christmas miracles."
