#3) Gift Shopping 12/3 (both[whichever art works better and the drabble])
Tabby and company decide to go gift shopping in Tasea. They're in an antique shop.
There! Tabby spotted in the corner of her eye the perfect gift in an antique store, when-"HEY!"
Before Tabby could claim the item, a pair of elegant hands defeated her. "TRINA CHANG?! HEY!" Tabby bellowed, "THAT WAS MINE FIRST; WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE ANYWAY?"
She pointed her nose up, "My daddy sent me here to get this. I should very well ask you the same question. But I won't, because I'm excellent, and you're not."
With that, she walked out the store with the precious item. The man at the counter didn't try to stop her. Instead, he croaked, "You have a good one miss, and tell your father-"
She was already gone. He wiped down his forehead with a cloth.
They ran out the sliding doors. Turning through random corners, they found themselves in an alleyway. Trina was nowhere.
"WHAA? WHERE DID SHE GO?" Tabby sputtered.
She then looked at Nannybot, who was in deep thought, her hand cupped over her mouth and eyebrows furrowed. "Perhaps there is a hidden door somewhere."
Suddenly, masked men attacked them. Two of them overtook Tabby, each grabbing one of her arms.
Then she heard a laugh. Trina appeared from a hidden back-alley entrance. "You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this moment."
"Wait, what?"
Trina snapped her fingers. Out came... GIRL SCOUTS. Vivienne forced a smile. Lita Lee quaked.
"Oh hey it's you guys! What a funny coincidence!"
"They're here because if they don't listen to every word that I say-"
"EXCUSE ME BUT MY ARMS ARE GETTING SORE; can you just give me the thing I want," Tabby asked.
Trina laughed again, "Ha! It's being sold in the Black Market! If you want it that badly, I could allow you to bid... if you have the guts."
"I HAVE GUTS. I HAVE ALL THE GUTS IN THE WORLD!" Tabby shouted.
Tabby and company sat front row black market auction. Fancy red curtains veiled a tiny wooden stage.
"We'll see how much you're willing to give up..." Trina said sinisterly.
They all wore masks. Nanny whispered, "Tabitha, are you sure you want to go through such lengths for a christmas present of all things?"
"More sure than anything!"
The curtains revealed the object Tabby had her eyes on... a vase that looked like a frozen mythical creature.
"1 MILLION" "5 MILLION" "10 MILLION"
The bids slowed down around 200.
"250!" Tabby stood and held her sign straight up.
Trina chuckled and whispered, "I'm making an impossible bid. I know she is going to outbid. Watch."
"Five hundred million," she cooed, and raised her sign gracefully. Her pretty eyes watched Tabby.
"FIVE HUNDRED MILLION! IS THERE A SIX HUNDRED MILLION BID IN THE HOUSE?
"Do you really want it that badly?" Tabby asked. "I mean are you out of your mind? Come on, Nannybot; let's get out of here."
"SIX HUNDRED MILLION. GOING ONCE, GOING TWICE..."
The seven of them left out the backroom.
"H-huh?!" Trina stood up, but masked men grabbed her. "SOLD FOR FIVE HUNDRED MILLION!"
"TABBY HOPKINS, I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS...!" Trina growled.
Meanwhile, outside the secret alleyway, Nannybot said, "I'm glad you came to your senses. If you hadn't, I would have stopped you, but now I see there was no need."
"I was never going to try to buy it..." Tabby said.
She rubbed her hands together, "I'm going to STEAL it from her!"

With Christmas approaching three weeks away, Tabby and company decide to go Christmas shopping in Tasea, ending up in an antique shop.
There! Tabby spotted in the corner of her eye the perfect gift. Quite high quality, too, when-"HEY!"
Before Tabby could claim the item, a pair of elegant hands beat her to the chase. The hands belonged to a member of very girl scout troupe Tabby was a part of. "TRINA CHANG!" Tabby bellowed, "THAT WAS MINE FIRST; WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE ANYWAY?"
She could have been the epitome of Tasean beauty; long and straight dark hair, pale skin, and slender all around. The only exception was her pale, icy blue eyes, which gave her a pleasing foreigner's look. She wore a rich red silk dress.
She pointed her nose up, let down her heavy-lidded eyes, and let out a small "hmph" in one motion. "I come from this country, you know, and my Daddy runs his business here. He sent me here to get this. I should very well ask you the same question. But I won't, because I'm excellent, and you're not."
And with that, she walked out the store with the precious item. It must have already been paid for before she left, because the man at the counter didn't try to stop her. Instead, he croaked, "You have a good one miss, and tell your father-"
She was already gone. He pulled out a cloth, wiped down his forehead with it, and let out a heavy sigh.
She ran out the sliding doors and the group tailed after her. Turning through random corners and chasing slips of red silk, they found themself in an abandoned and dark alleyway. Trina was nowhere in sight. Gone.
"WHAA? WHERE DID SHE GO?" Tabby sputtered.
She then looked at Nannybot, who was in deep thought, her hand cupped over her mouth and eyebrows furrowed. "Interesting... Tasea has many hidden alleyways and passages. Perhaps there is a hidden door somewhere."
Suddenly, groups of masked men attacked them, some from the rooftops and some from behind. Two of them overtook Tabby, each grabbing one of her arms. She kicked empty air.
Then she heard a familiar laugh belonging to a certain girl; Trina appeared from a hidden back-alley entrance. "You have no idea how long I've been waiting to finally have you wrapped around my finger, Tabby."
Tabby's vicious growling puppy face turned into a face of utter confusion. "Wait, what?"
Trina scowled and snapped her fingers. Out came... VIVIENNE AND LITA LEE. Vivienne's smile suddenly looked a lot more forced, and Lita Lee was shivering and quaking as usual.
"Oh hey it's you guys! What a funny coincidence to see you guys here, too!"
"NO. They're here because if they don't listen to every word that I say-"
"EXCUSE ME BUT MY ARMS ARE GETTING SORE; can you just give me that thing that I was going to buy from the store before you took it?," Tabby asked.
Trina laughed again, "Ha! You're so pathetic! Too bad it's being sold in the Black Market right now! If you want it that badly, I suppose I could allow you to bid... if you have the guts."
"I HAVE GUTS. I HAVE ALL THE GUTS IN THE WORLD!" Tabby shouted.
And then Tabby and her robot and guards were forced to sit at the front row of the black market auction. A set of fancy red curtains veiled a tiny wooden stage. There was a large space dividing the group of seats into two, and Trina Chang and the scouts sat at the opposite end of the gap.
"We'll see how much you're willing to give up..." she said sinisterly, and masked herself with one hand and grasped her bidding sign with the other.
Nannybot and the guards also wore their sequins masquerade ball masks with fancy feathers, and Tabby too. Nanny handed the bidding sign to Tabby and whispered discretely, "Tabitha, are you sure you want to go through such lengths for a christmas present of all things?"
"More sure than me having all the guts, Nanny!"
Sure enough, eventually the curtains revealed the object Tabby had her eyes on... a vase that looked stunningly like ice, carved in the shape of a mythical creature.
"1 MILLION" "5 MILLION" "10 MILLION"
The bids flew out quickly, and slowed down at the 200 million mark.
"250!" Tabby stood and held her sign straight up.
Trina chuckled, and whispered to Vivienne, "I'm going to purposely make an impossible bid, that I know that stupid girl is going to outbid. Watch."
"Five hundred million," she cooed, and raised her sign gracefully. Her pretty thin eyes watched Tabby.
"FIVE HUNDRED MILLION! IS THERE A SIX HUNDRED MILLION BID IN THE HOUSE?"
"Gee, do you really want that dumb vase so badly?" Tabby asked. "GEEZ, I mean are you out of your mind? I don't want to spend so much of my Christmas shopping money on THAT piece of junk. Come on, Nannybot; let's get out of here."
"SIX HUNDRED MILLION. GOING ONCE, GOING TWICE..."
Nannybot sighed. The seven of them left out the backroom.
"H-huh?!" Trina got up from her seat to go after them, but masked men grabbed her. "SOLD TO THE PRETTY GIRL IN RED FOR FIVE HUNDRED MILLION!"
"TABBY HOPKINS, I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS...!" Trina growled.
Meanwhile, outside the secret alleyway, Nannybot said, "Well I'm glad you came to your senses at the last moment, Tabby. If you had tried to outbid her, I would have tried stopped you, but now I see there was no need."
"Oh no; I was never going to try to buy that vase..." Tabby said.
Imaginary demon horns practically appeared on her head as she rubbed her hands together, "We're going to STEAL it from her!"

Snowball Fight 12/4
WHUMP!
WHUMP! WOOSH! WHUMP! The sounds of snow hitting trees or in all likelihood missing its target.
It was like being under siege… Juno hadn't remembered the last time he'd felt so exhilarated over snow in ages, in fact he hadn't really thought much of the first snowfall at SA until he'd been engaged by his bad-tempered friend: BB. He had gotten angry with Juno for some reason or other yet again and Juno was left with one option… Dodge and run or face the fury of a thousand grey fists, or in this case snowballs.
Snowballs that were being hurled at him with the super strength that BB was empowered with.
"Beanpole I'll get you!!" Juno heard from a far off distance, as it was easy outrunning his shorter companion with his long legs. The two always bantered over this, out of playful fun or tease but on occasion BB wouldn't stand for it any longer and then there would ensue a fight.
"I don't think so BB! You won't catch up!" Juno laughed behind him. Finding the perfect tree to climb, he instantly was several feet above the ground on sturdy branches. Gathering a bit of snow from a nook in the tree, Juno formed a decently sized snowball ready to strike when his opponent approached.
"There you are! Stupid beanpole!" came the call from below. BB bent down to gather some more ammo when SLISH, an icy surprise struck the exposed back of BB's neck all too easily. Cursing and sputtering at the suddenness, BB danced on the spot to shake the snow away while Juno sat comfortably in his tree laughing in friendly mischief for perhaps a little too long...
"Do you give up ye---!" FWUMP. A sudden direct hit to the face sent Juno flying backwards out of his tree, landing in a tall pile of snow. From within the semi-cave of snow Juno could hear the distinct laughter of his grumpy friend.
"Hey yo! Aren't you gonna at least help me out." Juno called playfully, chuckling. "And, when'd your aim get so good…" BB shrugged with a brief smirk as he held his hand out to lift his buddy from the hole. "Don't call me short any more, got it?" "You know that's not gonna happen." "…. Yeah." BB's look of discontent inevitably made the two laugh. "Let's get some hot chocolate." Juno suggested as he wrung his arm around his best bud and shook him. "Yeah yeah… You can't win me over with sweets all the time man." BB reluctantly gave in. "Since when has it never worked?" Juno nonchalantly remarked as the two headed back towards the Academy.

Day 4: SNOWBALL FIIIIIIIIGHT~!
"By the way, you're banned from using your powers." "THIS FROM THE GIRL WHO GOT THE FREAKING ALIEN ON HER TEAM." "Your point?"
All the founders ended up some how in the kitchen, laughing and drinking. Nothing alcoholic though, since there were plenty kids running around. It was cozy warm that night and after all the chatter, things died down and became quiet. Bringing upon the awkward silence that fell over the group. “So how about those ravens” Hack said with a grin as he slowly took a sip of eggnog coffee. “Come on guys we can’t be those forever alone people who hangout and drink but still manage to reach that awkward point” Phoenix said taking away everyone's cups. “ well what do you have in mind then” flo said crossing her arms, all she wanted was to drink in piece since they did disturber her first. All of a sudden hack bursted through the door singing and dancing, with the ugliest sweater they had seen and a cat on his head holding on for dear life. “Rocking around the Christmas tree have a happy holi-“ hack sang until he realized he wasn't alone anymore. “Did I interrupt something, I just need some cookies” hack said slinking by everyone and grabbing his cookies. “THAT’S IT” Phoenix said as the light bulb went off over her head, she began running around the kitchen gathering cooking supplies. “Lets do this” They said in unison, as they slid on their gloves and tightened their safety goggles. The idea of baking cookies soon escalated into throwing dough at one another and talking in French accents. “ Nice, I say we give them to the kids” binary said with a menacing smile. They tip toed through the halls sliding cookies under the children s doors as if they were mini Santa's. Quickly after Starffe opened his door while starring at the cookie strangely. “what is this monstrosity” He said starring at the burn’t black cookie with splats of icing on it.
25 Days of Christmas: Christmas caroling 12/5
The sky was growing darker and darker by the minute and people were busy throughout the Crantel streets, everyone was getting ready for Christmas. It was a chilly night and lots of SA students decided to go out tonight, to get a feel of the other world that they do not experience as often. As they were walking down the street there was a lady singing all by her self different carols with a donation bucket. No one had put a single coin or dollar in the bucket and as Theo walked by he noticed and dropped a few dollars in. “How long have you bee-“ he said before the lady stopped singing handed him the carol book and before quickly leaving she said “ Thanks you young man I have been her since early today and no one seemed to have any Christmas spirit but you look like the singing type, would you mind singing while I go warm up” she said patting his back and scurrying away quickly. “ but wait I can’t do this alone” he said as his voice trailed off. He quietly began singing softly and no one could really hear a young kid walking by threw a pine cone at him. “ Man how can I do this without either revealing my self or choking” he said as he face palmed. Soon Tabby and Dani came out. “ hey Theo what are you doing?” Dani said. “ this lady just left and told me to sing but i-i-I can’t” Theo said sitting down. “ no fear Tabby and Dani are hear!!!” tabby yelled as she grabbed the song book and broke out in song. “ DECK THE HALLS IN BELLS OF POLLY TALALALALFA TAN THE SEASON TO BE BUYING FALALALALTA SOMETHING SOMETHING GAY APPAREL FALALALALAL COMEONE PEOPLE GIVE US MONEY BEEECAUSE WE ARE SO GOOD” She sang loudly while dancing, suddenly a group of people gathered around and must have liked Tabby’s version. “ jungle bells jungle bells jungle all the way” Theo sang in perfect pitch. Soon Basia popped up smiling next to Theo and she joined in. “ kids what are you doing out here?” Captain said.
I had to rush Jax OTL . I am going to fix this up tomorrow I think. EDIT: Updated.
Also rushed OTL It is supposed to be Tabby going door-to-door carolling with her army of bodyguards.

#1 25 Days of Christmas: Starbucks 12/6 Everyone headed in after they had watched a few of their fellow students singing some of the most interesting carols. What did they expect, it was Tabby and she seemed to influence the rest of them, but also helped out Theo. One by one they entered the near by Starbucks to get warm, and that was their main focus on coming to Crantel. They all sat down around one another laughing but surprisingly not ordering anything. “ so is anyone thirsty cause I am still cold” violet said , she was still shivering. “I’m up for anything hot” juno said putting his legs up on the chair. “ oi’ll ‘ave some hoit co’co” Ava said sitting down quickly. “ oh so I guess I’ll be retrieving he drinks” violet said as she approached the cashier and ordered the drinks, knowing this would take a while. While she was looking at the drink makers she saw a portal open and a hand stick grabbing a hot cup of salted caramel hot chocolate. “ BASIA” Tabby said loudly as she grabbed the drinks quickly in a bundle spilling almost all the drinks. “owwwwwww, well here you guys go” she said as she passed out random drinks to the wrong people. The drink people almost caught basia and her portal but she was quick. That made everyone think, where was basia? And theo?. “ aww man my drink is cold what am I gonna do noiw” tabby said with a pouty face. While Agatha was sipping her pipping hot white mocha she noticed a sad tabby, and that was rare. So Snaps waltzed over to her and with a snap of her fingers started a small fire but made sure to keep it hidden beneath the table while the iced coffee cup was over it and was being heated. “ there tabby, have fun with the coffee” she said with a small smile. “ Thankies Snaps” tabby said giving her a big hug. Snaps was surprised but also comforted. While everyone continued sipping their drinks, they say basia and theo walk in….. late.
#2 25 Days of Christmas
As everyone headed inside to get warm, Basia had a whole other plan in mind one that involved teleporting. She grabbed Theo’s hand before he could go in and began leading him away from that particular Starbucks. She wanted to have her special time with theo, and this was her chance since everyone would have been all over him about how awesome the caroling was. “ Hey hey where are you taking me missy” theo said stopping for a second to catch his breath and conjure up an idea of where she may be leading him. “ well you will just have to find out soon enough, it’s a surprise” Basia said with a huge grin. She picked up the pace until she and him ended up in a beautiful park. She looked around at her surroundings and they sat down. “ you were absolutely amazing Theo, and those carol songs were too funny” She said. “ well thank you your surprise skill aren't so good though I can tell my meter is ticking you are in violation of surprises” he said with a small laugh. She noticed that they bother seemed to be shivering and knew exactly where to go. She instantly opened a portal to a Starbucks and reached her hand through, she fumbled around until she found a hot drink, and then to her surprise she heard tabby yell her name and she quickly shut the portal. “ phew that was too close. Here sip” she said handing the drink to Theo. “ thanks and mmmm it’s so good, I’ll have to make you one of my favorite fruit cakes” he said handing it to her since it was her turn to taste. “Usually I don’t eat fruit cakes but if you make it why not try it” she said and she grabbed his hand and they walked back to Starbucks with their coffee in her hand.
