Chapter one.

     It was a dreary Monday morning. It was foggy and drizzling, and the air was damp. It was defiantly gonna be a bad day. But this story isn't about the seasons or of the weather, this story is about a young  stoat  named Sean. Sean was just your average guy; he was a journalist, and he had a blog. He was not too short but not too tall, thin, and had a pretty decent face.

Suddenly, there was a bump down the stairs. Sean's ears perk up as he's startled awake, but he doesn't move. he listens for a little.

He hears... Whispering. Sean sits up and quietly shuffles over to the door, trying to listen in on the intruders.

"Are you sure this is the right place? It doesn't seem so 'Extraordinary' as you said..."

"Don't worry about it, Travis! Sean's gonna be thrilled!"

Sean takes aback. that sounded like Travis and Jay, his best buddies! And it wasn't anytime near his birthday... Sean then realized what day it was. It was nearly Christmas, it was the winter solstice! Sean rushes quickly back to bedroom to wait and listen for his friends. He puts his ear to the floor.

"But Jay, what if he doesn't like it? I mean, I haven't known him long enough to fully understand all his interests like you have..."

"True, true. But he has been wanting this for months! I promise you."

Sean's eyes widen. Something I've wanted for months? he pondered. But there's only one thing that it could-!

There came another crash from downstairs, followed by a line of muffled swears. Sean rushed downstairs and acted as supprised as he could.

"Jay! Travis! What are you two doing at my house at this hour?!" Sean yelled.
"Oh nothing, just hogging your wifi." Jay responded calmly. "You have your life sorted but some of us aren't as smart as you are" Travis snorts.
"This isn't funny, guys," Sean sighed. "You could get arrested if you keep doing this."
"Sorry" both Travis and Jay said in unison, then giggling. Sean looked at them sternly, shutting the two up quite quickly.
"Just... Dont do it again, okay guys?" Sean had a worried and tired look on his fuzzy face.
Travis sighed and nodded. "Yeah, whatever." Jay yawned.

How exhausting.
