Tom's pov

What a wonderful and joyful day,

Except, it isn't as great as it seems.

I sat down at the desk in my room sketching something down on my journal, it's a rough sketch of Tord or a Dødsgang to be precise.

It was peaceful without a mention about that fat old man falling down from chimneys, dropping ' gifts ' for kids. I cleared my mind by shaking the thought away.

Speaking of which, my door slammed open making me almost ruin my art.

" Marry Christmas! " Rya cheered, rushing towards me " you almost ruined my sketch " I pointed to the journal, he laughed rubbing the back of his head "speaking of which, y'know how Red is this big beast?" I nodded, thinking that it's old news now "what if Santa is also real too?!" he showed me his turtleneck which now has a raindeer on it.

" What do you think? Sarah made it for me"

" it's differently... Christmas themed.. "

I cleared my throat " so, where's Ray, Edd and Matt?" I tried to change the subject " oh, Ray's sleeping, both Edd and Matt are already helping the others down " he chuckled " wanna go find out what's the rest of the army's doing? " he grabbed me outta my seat and started walking, I guess I don't much of a choice.

We walked through the Cafeteria doors, immediately catching a glimpse of Tord talking to both Pau and Pat, smiling and laughing with each other.

" it's really coming in nicely " Rya looked around at the newly add decorations, I snapped outta my train of thought " yeah, is that santa?" I pointed, he turned his head to the direction I'm pointing at " where?!" he rapidly look around " just kidding" I laughed at his reaction, he punched my arm softly.

" Red's looking at you " he signaled with his eyes " what? Did you think I would fall for it?" I looked down chuckling, he coughed as if trying to say something.

" boo" I flinched looking at the source of the voice, Tord.

I gently pushed him " I told you not to do that" i laughed, he chuckled looking down at me " well, I'll leave you two to it" Rya said, making two thumbs-up at us.

" the kid can read you like a book" Tord put his arms behind him

" right " I started " because he haven't basically lived with you" I snickered, crossing my arms

He cleared his throat " how was your mission with willow?" he asked, I snorted in amusement " are you seriously talking about work? On a holiday?" I said " every other base is fighting each other, they don't know we exist" I grabbed his robotic hand " even Jacob is busy celebrating " I reminded him, letting go of his hand.

I looked him up and down " and what's up with the sudden change anyway " I gestured at his outfit, he exhaled relaxing his shoulders.

" an ally of ours is have dinner with us, she's having some difficulties with her base " he stretched.

" oh, we've never done that before " I said in surprise " what's was her name again?" I questioned not really knowing who she was.

" Rosa santiago" he hummed to himself, I don't think I've met her before, the name doesn't ring a bell. Which ally was it again?

" we only have two allies, one of which is constantly hitting on me" Tord scoffed at the mention of said leader "that bastard is on thin fucking ice if he doesn't get his shit together " his accent showing more, holding his forehead " so, it's the Purple Army" i guessed. Tord nodded " Uh- sir?" he looked behind him to find Dan, fiddling with his hands.
