A Very Haunted Christmas

Day Seventeen

"This is ridiculous...." Courage muttered, her wings starting to feel a little cramped. "Why aren't you letting me fly outside? It would lessen space in here, and I'm TIRED OF HEARING ARMEN WHISTLING GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN!!!"

"Well, don't you think it would be a little suspicious if people saw a gigantic flying wolf hybrid?" Grayson raised an eyebrow.

"Oh come on, I'll stay out of sight, I promise!" Courage pleaded. "We're in the country anyways! No one is gonna see me here! Plus, I wanna talk to CrystalMoonlight!"

"Sure, fine." Drake sighed. "But stick close to the car."

"Hey, can I go with her?" Brisk asked pleadingly. "I wanna say hi to mom!"

"Wha- You know what? I'm not even gonna question it." Drake shook his head. "Courage, do you mind..."

"Yeah, sure...." Courage sighed, and grabbed Brisk's arms. "Let's go."

Soon, they were soaring above the truck, Brisk dangling below her, giving whoops of glee.

Courage was just simply trying not to explode.

"Hey, could you go and see Crystal?" Brisk asked. "She's waaaay up there!"

"I am two seconds away from just dropping you, elf boy." Courage snarled, her ears flat against her head.

"Yeah, but if mom found out, she's be mad!" Brisk smirked.

"Not if she never finds out." Courage smirked, but flew up anyways.

The ball of light flying above the trailer suddenly flashed, and it suddenly transformed into a woman with sparkling blue wings.

"Hey son!" She smiled.

"Could you take him please?" Courage grunted. "He's getting heavy."

"Oh, sure." Crystal rolled her eyes, and grabbed Brisk, allowing Courage to fly free.

"So, how has your visit in this world been going?" She asked.

"Oh, pretty well!" Brisk smiled. "Uncle Herobrine's pretty annoying though..."

The dark lord suddenly appeared beside them, evil enderdragon wings sprouted out of his back.

"Hey!" He snarled. "It wasn't only me, you know!"

"Yeah, but it was mostly you!" Brisk snickered.

"Okay, maybe a little..." Herobrine muttered.

Crystal glanced over at her brother, and gave him a look, before flying higher, out of her anoying sibling's way.

"So, have you learned how to use your powers yet?" She called, the wind roaring around them.

"Not yet..." Brisk sighed. "But I will some day!" He added brightly.

"I hope so!" CrystalMoonlight grunted. "You are getting heavy!"

"Sorry..." Brisk muttered, embarrassed. 

Back in the trailer, Drew was singing Christmas carols, but with a twist.

"Jingle Bells, Herobrine smells, Crystal all the way!" He called out, laughing.

"The Grayson opened up the cage and hamster got away, hey!"

Then he turned around, and asked people to join him, but no one did.

"When are we gonna get there?" Audrey grumbled.

"To the camping site? About an hour still." Amber replied.

Suddenly, they heard a rumble, and a crash, and the trailer shook.

"Pull over!!" Kyah screamed, shaking Armen.

"Okay! Will do!" Armen yelled.

Soon, the trailer was parked, and they ran outside.

They saw Courage rolling on the ground, another person attacking her.

"Give me back my satchel!" Courage snarled, attacking the figure.

"No can do!" The figure gasped, dodging a punch. "Not until you explain why your trailer is emitting a magical pulse so strong I could feel it from a mile away!"

"No! GIVE IT BACK!!" She screeched, pouncing back on him.

"STOP!!!" Drake surged forwards, his magic lifting both of them into the air.

The two of them struggled, but couldn't escape.

"Um... how is it possible that he just used that much magic in this world?" Crystal whispered to Amber.

"He can get scary when he's mad..." Amber whispered back.

"Okay, what was that?!" Drake yelled. "Who are you?" He demanded.

"Ugh..." The figure frowned for a second, then smiled. "My name is Sammy, and I'm afraid there's a big misunderstanding."

His dragon tail swished back and forth once, before folding away neatly.

"Can you let me go? I got my answer. I have no reason to fight now." The dragon hybrid assured him.

Drake sighed, and let both of them go.

Sammy tossed the satchel back over to Courage, who caught it with a hiss, before dashing back over to her group.

"So... why are you here?" Drake asked, his anger fading.

"Well, I sensed an incredible magical pulse coming from this trailer, and I was wondering why. I didn't mean to anger your friend. I had tried to talk, but she wouldn't listen. I'm ashamed. Sorry about that." He smiled over in Couraged direction, who sniffed, and turned her head the other way.

"Well, if you haven't noticed, we kinda have a wide assortment of magical people with us, magi and hybrids alike." Drake nodded towards the group.

A swish of wind told Drake Herobrine and CrystalMoonlight had landed.

"Who is this?" Crystal asked, eyes narrowed.

"Just a misunderstood traveler." Sammy shrugged. "I can go now if you want."

"No, it's fine, you look like you're hurt." Drake glanced at one of Sammy's wings, which were scratched.

"It's nothing, I'm fine." Sammy grinned, but winced when he was about to take flight.

"Nonsense." Crystal shook her head. "Drake is right. Come inside. Amber can treat that. She's good with potions."

Sammy nodded tensely, and followed her inside.

"That's a mistake." Audrey muttered. "He looks like the type of person who'd sing along with Drew..."

And of course he did.

"ARGH!!!" Audrey screeched. "I AM GOING TO EXPLODE!!!!!!"

Okay, so, I don't know if I should show you what the characters are buying or not, so let me know if I should show the shopping trip or keep it a surprise. Thanks for reading! Bai! ~Dream
