Nintendo High Sophomore Year

Slumber Party

Krystal was eating a good sandwich with Carmelita Fox. Carmelita is an officer here in Xan City and has protected the people for many years. It was also thanks to her that Neo and Stan were able to help Krystal out and even stop Imamura from causing anymore chaos. After watching over the girl, Carmelita developed a bond with her and had decided to adopt her as a daughter. Since then, their relationship is grand.

"So, how was school?" Carmelita asked.

Krystal swallowed her food. "It was good. I hoped I passed the test."

Carmelita raised an eyebrow. "Did you read their minds?"

"Of course not! I would never cheat on a test!" Krystal protested.

Carmelita only smiled and chuckled. "Kidding. Just kidding."

Krystal then shared a laugh as well. "What about you?"

"Same as ever. Peaceful, crooks being arrested, the usual." Carmelita said.

She was happy that Krystal had recovered greatly. In the past, Krystal would often have nightmares of being locked in a small box and be buried underground to be forgotten. Carmelita stayed by her side and made sure Krystal got all the help she needed. She even went to therapy sessions to help her overcome her fear and how to move on without letting the past slow her down. Eventually, Krystal recovered and never had a nightmare ever since then.

And true to her motherly instincts, she was protective of Krystal. Even telling Neo to not do anything stupid, or else he would get into deep trouble. She would also not let Krystal get anywhere in the streets without her or a friend. But protective as she is right now, she still cares about her happiness. She wanted the blue fox to enjoy life on her own experience, and sometimes learn what the officer did in her days of youth. She then thought of something.

"Krystal." Carmelita spoke. "Is there anything you like to do this weekend?"

"Not that I know of." Krystal said.

"You sure?"

Krystal began thinking real hard. Then she remembered something a few days ago. She remembered hearing Peach talking about her slumber party at her place when they were in middle school and that it was fun. They even did it again last year and it was a blast. Deep down, Krystal wanted to have fun there too.

"Well...what about a slumber party?" Krystal asked sheepishly.

"Oh?" Carmelita looked at her.

"Yes. I...um...is it all right if I..."

"Of course." Carmelita spoke. "But only on the weekends. And for friends you trust."

Krystal beamed brightly. "Really!?! Thank you!" She then rushes to Carmelita and hugs her tightly. She was now more than excited to have a slumber party.

It was now Friday and Krystal was at her home preparing for the girls to come over and have a great party. And it was a good thing too since Neo and Stan are having a game night and will not be available. Krystal didn't mind. She was looking forward to a good night with the girls.

Of course, Carmelita gave her some rules to make sure they don't trash the place. Such as, no trashing the place, no drugs, no alcohol, don't stay up too late, and such. She understood. A bit upset, but understood.

As she finished her last item on the list, Carmelita came in. "Everything all set up?"

"Yes." Krystal answered. "I got everything ready. And they'll be here soon."

"That's great. I gotta get going since I have a night shift. But remember what I said: No-"

"I know I know." Krystal interjected. "No drugs. No beer. No boys. No destruction. And be in bed at a time."
