A new dream, A new nightmare.

Christmas speical 2018

Hello Readers,

MERRY CHRISTMAS! (Or if your like me Happy Sameal Day!)

I've been struggling with writers block a lot this year and for that I'm truly sorry however with the help of the ever perfect Blacklustermaster I have managed to scrape together this wonderful Christmas chapter for you all.

Enjoy this special

Lilith smiled happily as she made breakfast, having been able to have a real lie in for the first time since Yuki was born. Mephisto twirled around as he entered her kitchen/Living room. He kissed her cheek quite happy with himself.

"Happy birthday my love." Is her greeting for him. He chuckles and admires the large white pine tree, covered in purple lights, sand timers, pocket watches and planets. "Still obsessed with your compromise so we could let Yuki enjoy the better parts of Christmas."

"Of course my love. Where is our little princess?"

"Lucien is dressing her this morning so I could lie in. Before you ask he sent Alucard to Tokyo to deal with the zombie problem they have been having. I think he's about 99% done though."

"Good ... We don't want him joining Fire Santa." Mephisto sighs and looks towards the door as the Kitsune servant enters carrying Yuki. Mephisto snorts seeing Yuki yanking on Lucien's tail. She's dressed in a purple sweater dress with pink tights and shoes. "Ah my adorable little princess!"

"This minx has been yanking my tail because I said no early presents." Lucien explains this to Lilith once Mephisto takes Yuki from him to help her open her Sameal day presents.

"Well we're going to the Dorm later so after lunch your can have the evening off." Lucien sighed in relief at his old friends kind offer. Lilith smiled as she saw Yuki nudge a Mephydog Plushie about the same size as her. As Mephisto picks her up to put her in a high chair Lilith sees Yuki is hitting her father with a purple rattle. "Lucien who bought her a rattle?"

"Kai... With how she's put it to use Kai is like my favourite person in this mad house besides you." Lilith snorted.

The Pheles house hold had a wonderful day, perfect dinner which was only spoiled by Mephsito's desire to carry Yuki everywhere and constantly hold her while Yuki's only desire to to bonk her father on the head with her rattle.

Something doesn't feel right. Huh...you know, usually I have to break out the Melvin-proof armour for Christmas, especially what with it being Mephisto's birthday to boot. This year, though, everything seems to have gone well. Can't afford to let down my guard, though, with everyone as they are, you're just as likely to get a tack on your chair as you are being consumed by the eternal darkness and, dare I say it...Zorc time. Just thinking it makes me shiver.

"kai? Why did you shiver just now? Are you cold?"

I look to the unassuming Lilith. She seems to be comfortable with the lack of an obvious disaster this Christmas, especially with yuki's presence. I can only put on a smile and pet her head.

"no, I'm fine. Don't mind me. Just enjoying the atmosphere. Thank you for visiting me for a bit and bringing the presents"

"well, I wasn't exactly going to leave out my big brother this Christmas, even if my own family has gotten bigger since last time."

She shows a bright smile as Mephisto keeps getting bonked by Yuki's new rattle. Through it all, he seems to be smiling as well. Maybe it was spending time with his family...maybe it was the concussion that he's suffering from the repeated rattle bonks-she's stronger than she looks, despite being a baby- or maybe his birthday is making him happy.

"oh, all of those things, my nephew, and more! My new Mephybrand toy has positively flown off the shelves this Samael day."

I look at him, first with a shocked look, followed swiftly by an accusatory look.

"what? I knew what you were thinking. Besides, my Mephbies were the new hit toy for every girl and boy this year, and now my company is registering record profits. I allowed every child in the cram school one for free to get the word of mouth going and it worked like a charm"

Something doesn't seem right, but I decide not to look into Mephisto's shady business practices.

As the festivities go on, I can't help but stare suspiciously at Melvin. He looks in my direction and innocently waves his hand at me. Yeah, he's definitely putting on an act, and preparing for something later, I can just feel it. he's just waiting to slip on that jolly red suit and cause untold havoc...but...it's already night time. Does he even have enough time in Christmas day to do what I think he could do?

Just to be safe, i should take some extra safety precautions...
