The Cobra King's Return

Cristmas Babysitting #2

It was a chilly December morning, and the house buzzed with excitement as the kids and teens gathered in the kitchen. The scent of hot cocoa and pancakes filled the air, creating a warm contrast to the frost clinging to the windows. Everyone was in high spirits—it was winter break, and Peti had something special in store.

Peti clapped his hands to get their attention, standing in the center of the room with a grin that promised adventure. "Alright, everyone! Listen up!" he called out, his voice brimming with energy. The chatter died down as all eyes turned to him, curious about what he had planned.

"So," Peti began, drawing out the suspense. "I've been thinking... it's winter break, and we can't just sit around all day doing nothing. So here's what we're gonna do: we're heading to the mountains for some real winter fun!"

The room erupted in cheers and gasps of excitement. Even the teens, who usually played it cool, couldn't hide their enthusiasm.

"We're gonna go sledding and tubing down the slopes," Peti continued, his grin widening as he imagined the chaos. "And after that, we're building igloos. Not just any igloos—epic igloos! Fortresses, if you will."

The younger kids squealed with delight, already imagining their snow forts.

"And last but not least," Peti said, raising a finger for emphasis, "we're going to build the biggest snowman ever made. I'm talking world-record level here. Maybe even snow-giant level!"

The room erupted again, this time with a mix of excitement and playful competition as everyone started making plans.

"I'm in charge of the snowman's face!" one of the kids called out.

"I'll help with the igloo!" shouted another.

"Let's see who can sled the fastest down the mountain!" one of the teens challenged.

Peti laughed, holding up his hands to calm the chaos. "Alright, alright! We'll split into teams when we get there. But remember, this is a group effort. No sabotaging each other's igloos—or snowmen!"

Lily leaned against the counter, smirking. "You've really thought this through, haven't you?"

"Of course," Peti replied confidently. "Winter only comes once a year, so we're making it count."

"Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen," Lily teased.

"Maybe," Peti admitted with a chuckle. "But it'll be a fun disaster."

The kids and teens were practically bouncing with excitement, already bundling up in scarves and jackets as they prepared to head out. Peti grabbed his coat and looked around the room, feeling a warm sense of pride at the joy on everyone's faces. This was what winter break was all about—making memories that would last a lifetime.

"Alright, everyone, gear up! We're leaving in thirty minutes!" Peti announced, his voice cutting through the excited chatter.

And with that, the house burst into a frenzy of activity, the promise of a day full of snowy adventures fueling everyone's excitement.

Peti waddled into the futuristic caravan, looking like a human marshmallow with his oversized fuzzy coat, enormous boots, and bulky pants. His attire made him the butt of lighthearted jokes from the kids, who giggled at how he resembled a walking balloon. But Peti didn't mind; the warmth was worth the ridiculous look, especially for the icy peaks they were heading to.

As they stepped inside the caravan, a robotic voice greeted them cheerfully, "Welcome aboard! I am your driver and guide for this journey. Please make yourselves comfortable."
