A Very Haunted Christmas

Day Eight

"Why is Drake still like that?!" Grayson demanded, pointing at the mage a few paces away.

"I don't know." Herobrine shrugged. "I would have thought he would have been better by now."

"Well he isn't!" Grayson yelled, just as Drake laughed and threw a rubber duckie across the room.

"Come on, you've got to admit it was kind of funny." Herobrine chuckled.

"Yes, it was..." Grayson admitted. "The first 2 hours! Now it's been 18!"

"Well, I don't know why he's not better yet." Herobrine glared. "Maybe the potion was stronger than I thought."

"Yeah, no kidding." Amber rolled her eyes as she strode into the room. "I've never seen anything like it."

"Do you know how long it will last?" Grayson begged.

"Well, considering it was an unintentional potion, it shouldn't last more than another day, but there might still be side effects after that...." Amber responded.

"Such as?" Grayson inquired, looking slightly afraid.

"Well, he might have random bursts of insanity for the few days following." Amber thought. "And.... considering it's around Christmas, he'll probably be more spirited."

"Well, that's not too bad." Grayson shrugged. "He could use some lightening up."

"Yeah, other than that, I don't think there's anything else you should worry about." Amber patted his shoulder. "And.... try not to freak out, but I saw him reading the entire Harry Potter series last night... so.... expect something from that category."

"Uh...." Grayson stuttered, but Amber left the room, a slight smirk on her face, a faint giggle emitting from her mouth.

"Oh, this should be interesting." Herobrine grinned. "I'm gonna make sure to get front row seats when Audrey's video on this comes out."

Just then, Drake shouted;

"Expelliarmus!"

And the entire pillow boat exploded in a charred pit.

"Yay! Magic!" He squealed, clapping his hands together.

"No! Drake! Don't do that!" Armen shrieked, going over to grab him, pulling him out of the room, yelling. "Bad Drake!"

"Well... this is certainly different..." Luna said, glancing up from her book. "Back in the End, he would never be like this. He was always the serious one."

"Yeah, I've actually been wondering for a while now, Luna." Mia piped up. "How long have you known Drake? I don't remember him ever mentioning you."

"Oh, we've been friends since the beginning." Luna waved a hand, smiling. "If he hasn't mentioned me before, it's probably because he's been busy with other things. His life is pretty hectic I hear."

"Yeah, it is." Armen grumbled, coming back into the room, locking the door behind him. "And so will be ours until he snaps out of it!"

"Well, that's interesting!" Mia smiled, secretly adding the two of them to her shipping list underneath the cover of the table. "I'm sure Drake's happy you're here then!"

"Yeah, I suppose he is." Luna shrugged. "It has been a while, after all. I know I am."

Scarlet came into the room, and sat down on a chair.

"So, how's Drake?" She asked, looking genuinely concerned.

"Still the same." Luna sighed, poking at her cereal.

"Ah, I see." Scarlett murmured, glancing down at her placemat.

"I heard Audrey has lots of video footage." Drew piped up. "Apparently she's trying to convince Dream to upload a separate chapter dedicated solely to the best moments. But she said something about needing support from the fans."

"Well, that'll certainly be interesting!" Brisk piped up, feeding his dragon. "I'd like to see that chapter!"

"Me too!" Mia smiled. "I think it's kinda cute!"

"Me too." Scarlett murmured.

"Hunh?" Luna asked.

"Nothing." Scarlett shook her head quickly, not wanting to say anything wrong in front of Luna.

"VOLDEMORT!" A voice squealed from the other room.

"Uh....is that Drake?" Drew asked uncertainly.

"Yes, it is." Grayson stood up quickly, cereal splashing everywhere. "And I bet that 'Voldemort' he's talking about is Herobrine!"

And he was right.

In the next room, Drake was cuddled up in a corner, pointing at a confused Herobrine.

"Who's Voldemort?" Herobrine asked.

"He's the villain in this book series Drake read." Mia explained quickly. "And if I'm not mistaken, Drake thinks he's Harry Potter. So... this isn't gonna be good!"

Suddenly, Drake shouted a spell aimed at Herobrine.

"Oh, so that's how you wanna play it, hunh?" Herobrine yelled, countering the spell, the two colliding with a gigantic BOOM!

"Guys, stop!" Audrey yelled, stepping in front of the two. "I can't get the right angle for this shot!"

"Bellatrix!" Drake yelled, pointing at the red haired woman.

"Uh...." Audrey muttered. "This can't be good."

And a second later, she was blasted with a spell, tumbling backwards.

It took her a second to realise where she was, and when she did, she hated herself for not hating it.

She was on top of Herobrine.....

"Um...." Audrey muttered, her face flushing. "Sorry?"

"Yeah.. uh...." Herobrine muttered, his eyes flaring an unusual shade of white, for once, at a loss of words. "Could.... could you get off?"

"Yeah... sorry." Audrey mumbled, stumbling off.

"Totally adding this to the shipping list!" Mia hissed excitedly, scribbling the names down.

Drake was about to blast another ray, when he tripped, and fell, and didn't get up.

"Is he all out of magic juice?" Luna asked, dashing forwards. "Is the effects of that wretched potion finally done?"

"Maybe." Armen shrugged, dragging his buddy up. "Let's get him to his room. Can someone watch over him?"

"I can." Two voices exclaimed at the same time, Luna, and Scarlett, the two staring at each other awkwardly.

"Sorry, you can." Scarlett muttered awkwardly. "I just... thought since I was his room partner it would be easier."

"Eh, it's fine." Luna shrugged. "Thanks!"

And she dashed off after Drake and Armen.

And Scarlett just stood and watched, and let out a sigh....

For the author's note, I only have one thing to say, and that is that I'm sorry if I miss a day, or something in the near future! Since school is winding down to it's last few days, there are a lot of projects that need to be completed, and a lot of stuff that needs to be finished! Once the final day rolls out, it'll be SO much more smoother from that point on! I hope you guys understand! X3 Thanks for reading! ~Dream
