((MONTHLY CAMPAIGN))
The sky was covered completely in white as a light snow drifted down from the sky. The people all bustled this way and that, getting in some last-minute shopping. Even a certain dragonkin was contributing to the holdiay spirit...
Shive stood on a building with a list in his hand and a large brown bag slung over his shoulder. He crossed off several names, then wooted.
"Yay! Done with the 'shopping'!" He exclaimed to himself.
He spread his wings and bounced into the sky, his eyes frantically searching for a certain warehouse. He spotted the fumes of smoke, and smirked, laning on the roof. He ran down the rooftop stairs and inside, throwing the bag into an unused room, then barring the door. He threw his armor in there as well, straightening out his shirt.
He entered the main area, where O'Malley was tuning lights on a tree Reizus had brought in. The lights flared for a second, and O'Malley sparked at the neck, turning them down again frantically. Reizus walked by with several cartons of eggnog, what could be a sadistic grin on his face.
Shive shrugged.
Looks like everything's in order. Now we just need everyone to show! He thought, smirking.

Myrr showed up from what was most likely Solranous' room, holding many boxes of what were apparently ornaments for the tree.
"Good Lord just how many ornaments does my father have? I knew he had a lot, but this is too much, even for him!" She frowned, "Speaking of which, I hope he comes back in time. I'd hate for him to miss it, and I've already set up the-" she giggled to herself, "-'trap.' I would hate for it to go to waste." She sighed. The half dragon walked over to the tree and set the boxes down. She glanced at the tree, which was rather large, and to the boxes of ornaments. The ornaments were more numerous then the branches on the tree, and there were at least twenty-five more boxes worth of ornaments.
"...Sometimes I wonder if he over buys things on purpose..." the half dragon whispered, her eye twitching.
Kisara was intentionally staying out of sight, constantly whispering to herself and Onyste that things couldn't get any more crazy. She was failing in trying to fool herself into believeing that though. Unlucky her.
Also a fair distance off, a certain emerald dragon has his back turned, looking at his sword, observing it like it was some kind of beast.
'What secrets could this blade hold? Is there more to it then what I know? And why do I realize this only now?' Nothing was adding up now. So many problems... To hell with it... It was Christmas... He will settle these matters after the time of giving has ended. His only regret was that he had nothing to give to the others... He had no clue as to what they might want or need. And he had run out of time. The dragon shrugged to himself and launched in to the sky, flying back to his own home.

"Shin, lets go!" Mazinkaiser yells to his pupil. He stands outside of a small hut that is covered in snow. Mazinkaiser looks up to the sky and admires the snow. "Snow is so...beautiful..." Mazinkaiser mumbles. The door of the hut opens and reveals Shining Gundam standing there. "Gomen sensei." Shining Gundam says.
"Haha, its alright. But if you don't hurry up, the party will start....and we will miss the eggnog!" Mazinkaiser says back. Shining Gundam stood beside his master and nodded as to say "I'm ready, lets go!". Mazinkaiser charged his Kaiser Scrander and took off into the sky. Shining Gundam joins him in the dark sky. Shining Gundam had become Mazinkaiser's pupil after the incident on the Floating Island.
"um...Mazinkaiser..." Shin asks. Mazinkaiser looks back at the Gundam. "What is it? Something troubling you?" the sensei asks back.
"Well...when I used that huge Shining Finger Sword attack to stop Evihs and Amon, I...I felt something strange inside. Like...I felt that I needed to get out of this body and form into a new one. Have you ever felt that?"
Mazinkaiser looks at the Gundam. Not a stern look but not a "WTF" look. "Robots must go through that. But, there is a rare chance that a Robot would change into a newer and more powerful form. But it only works if that Robot's mind and soul is fully developed. I...I myself had to go through that. But instead of being good...the soul inside of me...was evil...."
"Like Hollow Shive sensei?" Mazinkaiser looks ahead, not saying a word. He thinks for what to say. "No..." he finally says, "Something...something worse. Like a devil." He looks back to his pupil who has a sad face on. Mazinkaiser smirks and gets the Gundam into a headlock. "Now why the hell are you depressed on Christmas eh? Now, last one there is a rotten egg!!"
Mazinkaiser rockets towards the building where Shive is. Shining Gundam quickly follows. After a few minutes, they arrive. "WHERE THE F*CK HAVE YOU TWO BEEN?!?!" Great Mazinger yells at his brother. He crosses his arms and grunts. "Well, lets go in!!"

Thanatos arrived a short time later. He looked distinctly upset, or as much as one could tell since he had no face. He took one look at the tree and began to walk off; but not before shooting a ball of napalm at the tree.

Before the napalm could hit, it had been backhanded away by Reizus, whose hand appeared to be sheathed in blue-white flame.
"No torching the tree damnit! It took me a while just to bring it in!"
Shive was lounging the corner, shrugging. Thanatos just HAD to be a Scrooge... then again, Shive didn't know much about Scrooges... this was his first Christmas...
"Having trouble with the tree, Myrr?" He asked, grinning.
A knock was at the door, and O'Malley opened it. In the doorway stood a pure white wolf with azure eyes, and... a Santa hat on its head. O'Malley merely 'blinked' as the wolf walked in, tail wagging. She walked over by the tree and stared at in wonder, her eyes sparkling. O'Malley spotted the four robots outside, and he mentally thanked whatever gods were out there.
Other robots! Yes! I won't have to be trapped with these annoying organics!
"Please, do come in." He asked the Mazinger brothers, Shin, and Shining Gundam.

"Thanatos obviously does not understand the meaning of Christmas and the happiness it brings. Pity. Well, I'm not going to let him ruin it for the rest of us." Solranous muttered as he noticed that they were ornaments on the tree, ornaments he was familiar with, but not remembering putting them up this year.
"Myrr, have you been sneaking objects out of my room?" The dragon asked.
"Eheh... you noticed, huh? Yeah, I did. And why do you have over thirty boxes worth of ornaments? You'd need at least twenty trees to use them all." The half dragon replied, returning to the tree after ducking away from the burst of napalm that would have otherwise fried her.
She spotted Mazinkaiser, Great Mazinger, Shining Gundam, Shin, and the white wolf and commented, "I don't remember robots and a wolf being on the guest list. Oh well, the more the merrier as the case should be."
An ornament lightly bounced off of her head, hanging itself on the tree. She looked around for some one who could have thrown it, until she came to a particular conclusion.
"Father! You know that those ornaments can be fragile." Myrr growled, agrivated that Solranous had hung the ornament in such an odd way.
"Come on, your making me feel like the kid here." Solranous replied, laughing to himself.
"I'll stop doing that as soon as you start acting older then you are currently acting." Myrr shot back at him, giving off her own laugh. Solranous paused as she said that, trying to think off a decent comeback. He failed, and slinked off.

((Shive...Shin is short Shining Gundam.....just letting you know. Sorry for being confusin'!))
"Ah, thank you O'Mally!" Shining Gundam says to the fellow machine. Shin Getter Robo has his arms crossed and says nothing. Mazinkaiser looked at O'Mally. He seen him before. "Don't I know you?" Mazinkaisers asks, "I think it was in Downtown were we fought that Mechanical Beast." Mazinkaiser put his hand out and shook O'Mally's hand. "Well, nice to see you again."
Great Mazinger ingored his brother and stepped forwards. "Alright, since this is a party...." He throws a huge bag of food onto a table. "Food for the organics!! And of course, machine based eggnog for use robots here!!" He pours a glass for Mazinkaiser, himself, Shin Getter and O'Mally. Great looks at Shining Gundam. "But...none for you kid..." he smirks.
"I AM NOT A KID!!" The Gundam yells. Great Mazinger laughs and glups down all his eggnog. Mazinkaiser looks at his pupil and gives him his glass. "Take it, I don't like eggnog..." Mazinkaiser says. Great Mazinger looks at his brother. "....I can't believe that you are actually my brother..." Shin Getter looks at his glass and just puts it on the table. He mumbles something under his breath about something.

Thanatos went beck to see how Saelia and Martyr were doing. He stopped in the door because they were both up and talking to each other. He watched them for a while, redoubling his resolve to protect them-no matter the the cost. He decided to stay the next few days. It might be fun to celebrate an Earth holiday with Saelia.

Realizing he had walked by a wolf, Solranous came back into the room and glanced at said wolf. He gazed curiously for a few moments before venturing, "Lora?"
Myrr, however, had hung a few more ornaments, then jumped onto the seat right next to Shive, wrapped her arms around the dragonkin's neck, and kissed him on the cheek again. She gazed up to Shive before laying her haed on his shoulder again.
"Nope, just fine." She purred.
Kisara was mainly just standing to the side, trying to stay out of the way of the supernatural beings around her. It made her feel like the odd woman out. Onyste hung back in a seperate room, snoring away. She would join the others for some eggnog later on, but only after it quited down some.

Shive's cheeks reddened, and he wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
"Okay. I wasn't planning on doing much anyway." He said, tongue poking out.
*****
Lora nodded to Solranous, then stated,
"I love what you've done witht he place. It's so much roomier in here."
She then shifted out of her wolf form, back into her human form. She was currently wearing a red long-sleeved shirt and black jeans. And of course, the Santa hat.
*****
Meanwhile, O'Malley was 'hanging out' witht he other machines and chugging the 'eggnog', while Reizus was stringing up the lights around the perimeter of the ceiling.
*****
...And on the outskirts of the city, a group of five stood against the icy winds.
"When?" One of them asked in a Russian accent.
"Soon, Blizzack. Soon..." The one in the center responded in a growling tone.
The five then started towards the city...

"Hehehe. I didn't do too much, most of it was O'Malley's accomplishment. If I had been doing the repairs, they wouldn't have lasted long. I've had some... Mishaps in my repair attempts. I really have to tell you about some of them, they'll make you laugh."
Kisara approached Solranous and reached up to tap him on his shoulder.
"Hmm? Oh, Kisara... feeling a bit uncomfortable?" Solranous asked as he turned to her.
"Yeah... Everybody has something unusual about them that they seem normal. I'm the one who feels like a freak now..." Kisara replied.
"Don't worry, Kisara, you can always come to me." Solranous rumbled to her, nuzzling her cheek. Kisara flushed a deep red at this and stuttered.
Myrr snuggled up as close to shive as she could, partially laying on top of him. She purred contently, she always felt so free when she was around Shive. Sure, she had worries, but she left them wherever she was when she was near the dragonkin. Life was perfect now, and how could anything ruin that?

((Quite easily, actually!))
Shive's face turned even redder, but he tried to hide it. He shrugged and wrapped his arms around her stomach, then laid back in his seat and shut his eyes, smirking. His ear twitched, and he shot back up in his chair, then nudged Myrr.
"Uh, Myrr? I think I hear something. Mind if I check it out? I'll be right back."
Without waiting, he slowly picked her up and stood up, then placed her back in the seat. Shive walked to the door, a spark of elecricity issuing from his right index finger as he closed the door behind him.
Alright, I know I sensed something unusual. What was it? He thought.
Suddenly, a streetlight next to him became coated in 6 inches of ice. Shive glanced at it, then scratched his head, muttering,
"That's... not right..."
An explosion nearby rocked him off of his feet, chunks of concrete whizzing by. He looked up to see what appeared to be five robots standing down the street. One of them, a wolf-looking bot, asked,
"Do you know where we can find a large, black crystal? It's called the Dark Prism, and we kinda need it."
He crossed his arms and moioned for the others to move in.

Solranous' eyes widen in surprise from the explosion, his eyes intently focused on the door. Myrr jumped up in surprise, too, not because she wasn't near Shive anymore, but also from the explosion. Solranous had heard the Dark Prism part, but for the life of him he couldn't tell what it was or where it would be.
As the robots entered, Solranous' expression turned stern as he stood in front of them.
"Look, I'll only let you stay in this house as long as I see no armed weaponry. The very second I even sense the thought of a weapon charging, I'm kicking the offender's ass out of here unless there is a damn good reason." Solranous turned away and whispered unnoticedly, "Or if said offender is much stronger then me. Thanatos springs to mind." He looked back, his stern expression replaced with a more relaxed 'air'
"So... as long as the previously addressed situation doesn't occur, we'll have no problems. Now, this... Dark Prisim... Can't say I've heard of it... Do you perhaps have a picture of it? For the life of me I can't seem to remember if I've seen or heard of it before..."
Kisara just shrank back, feeling even more like a freak because she was with even more unusual beings while she was just a normal human. Hell, even the other woman who looked human had something crazy about her.
'This is not my day' Kisara thought glumly, shrinking back further still.

"Dammit Shive!" Thanatos said angrily as he headed quickly out of the back room. He saw the robots, he saw Shive, so it must be his fault somehow.
First the robots, then Shive. He thought as he charged his guns. First the robots, then Shive.

Great Mazinger points a shaky finger at the group of machines. "You shold sget outs now befur I kick you asses..." he slurrs. He was obviously hammered. He falls to the floor, dead asleep.
Mazinkaiser turns to the group of 5. "I don't know why all this crpa has to happen at the wonderful time of the year..." he mutters. His eyes flare with anger. Shining Gundam enters a fighting position, ready to strike. "Be careful Gundam..." Mazinkaiser whispers to his pupil, "Activating the Super Mode now would get yourself killed." The Gundam nodded and faced back at the Group of 5.
Shin Getter Robo, still having his arms crossed glares at the other 5 machines. "Dark....Prism....?" I've...I've heard that name before.....
