~*Due to technical difficulties, we will now put up a Fanfiction for you, the audience, to view. Thank you for viewing. Have a nice day*~

"The Bestest Gift Ever"

It was a beautiful winter's day. There was snow everywhere. The town was full of happy people doing their own business, and kids were all outside playing merrily in the snow. Well, that is all except we could easily get rid of him! *thwap!* (Rina: OUCH! Sorry! Geez.I was just kidding.) I was saying, everyone was happy, except a young, six year old little boy, who was inside his room.

This particular boy was very different from all the other children. It wasn't the fact that he had green hair, or the fact that his step-mother carried around a giant mace, OR the fact that he wasn't outside like all the other children that made him different. It was the fact that he was the last of the Ancient Dragons that made him extra special. But that special- ness never got in the way of his life. He did have many friends and was even going to go to school! He had a fairly peaceful and happy life. So why was he so damned depressed?!

"I miss Xelly-Papa," little Val sighed as he clinked his cherry toy thingie. Indeed, that was the exact reason why he was so glum. Val thought about the last time he had seen his 'Xelly-Papa'.

~*Begin Flashback*~

"AND THEN THE EVIL BEAR MONSTER POPPED OUT OF THE BUSHES!"

"NOOOOO!" Little Val shivered in fear as he listened to Xellos tell a scary story while roasting marshmallows over a small fire. Needless to say, they were out the backyard of Filia's house/pottery shop. "Did it eat all the little campers?!"

"Why, ye-"

"NAMAGOMI! WHAT KIND OF JUNK ARE YOU FILLING MY VALTERIA'S YOUNG MIND WITH?!"

"Filia! So you decided to join us?!" Xellos grinned up at the fuming ex-miko that was stomping towards them. "You're just in time to hear the ending of my story!"

"I KNOW!" Filia glared down at the smiling priest. "You are NOT going to corrupt my Val's innocent mind with stories about blood and gore! Understood?!"

"Awww! Filia-Mama! Xelly-Papa wasn't going to make the story full of blood and g-groar!" Val tried to pronounce and turned to Xellos. "Were you, Xelly-Papa?"

"NO! Of course not!" Xellos went back to his story. "I was just going to say 'Why, yes! The monster WOULD have eaten the campers, IF he wasn't suddenly fireball-ed by a passing sorceress."

"WOW! Really? Then what happened?"

"The bear monster then got eaten by the sorceress and her companion, whom was a swordsman." Xellos smirked.

" was the sorceress's name?" Val asked, totally awed.

"Lina In-"

"Okay! That's enough stories for tonight!" Filia smacked her hand over Xel's mouth and shoved him aside, making him drop his marshmallow.

"HEY! My marshmallow."

"Now, Val," Filia bent down to the young giggling dragon. "I think it's time for you to crawl into your sleeping bag and go to sleep. It's getting late."

"Awwww, but Filia-Mama! I want to hear another story!" Val whined and looked pleadingly up at his mom.

"No 'buts', young man!" Filia kissed Val on the forehead and ushered him into the tent next to a tree. "Now go to sleep."

" I don't wanna."

"You better do what FILIA-MAMA says! ^_^" Xellos joined them at the tent. "Do you know how many people she's killed with that mace?"

"Filia-Mama? O.O" Val stared up at his mother.

"What?!" Filia glared at the grinning Xellos. "I've NEVER killed anyone! Don't listen to that namagomi, Val!"

"Hehe, I was just kidding," Xellos then beckoned Val to come into the tent. "Come on, Val. It is getting late. Lets go to sleep now, and then I'll tell you another story tomorrow!"

"Umm." Val thought for a moment before nodding. "Okay!" And with that, he crawled into the tent and into his own sleeping bag. "Good night, Filia-Mama!"

"Good night, Val. And 't you dare lay a finger on him, because if I see even a scratch-!"

"I know, I know!" Xellos called out from the tent. "You'd damn me to hell. Now would you go away? We're trying to sleep here!"

"Namagomi," Filia muttered as she walked back to her house. He is such a namagomi, Filia thought to herself. I don't know why Val likes him so much. He's obnoxious, disgusting, rude, mean, cute-OH MY GOD! What in Cephied's name am I thinking?! She shook her head to clear her thoughts as she entered her home. I must not be feeling so well. I bet a good night's sleep would make me feel better.

Meanwhile, outside.

"Is she gone?"

"Yeah, Filia-Mama left." A small light appeared inside the tent.

"Okay, how about I tell you a story about the great sorcerous, Miss Lina Inverse, destroyed the powerful dark lord, Phibrizo?"

"Ooooh, okay!"

"Alright, it all started when."

~*End Flashback*~

And that camping trip was 5 months ago. It was also the last time that Val had heard from or even seen his Xelly-Papa. He said that he had to go do some errands for someone. He's been gone ever since. And Christmas was three days away! How could his Xelly-Papa abandon him for so long? I wish he would come back, Val thought of all the fun things that he and Xellos had done. He was in mid thought when Filia came into the room.

"Val? What are you doing in here?" Filia bent down to the gloomy little dragon. "Why aren't you outside with your friends?"

"I don't feel like it," Val sighed, looking up at his mother. "Filia- Mama, when is Xelly-Papa coming back from his errand?"

"I-I don't know, Val," Filia twitched at bit at the mention of Xellos. "He's a very busy person, you know. It might be awhile before he comes back."

" -Mama?" Val cuddled up to the ex-miko. "You don't really hate Xelly-Papa, do you?"

" ." Filia was flustered. "Um.I don't know anymore. I guess I don't really hate him as much as I used to." Filia smiled at the little dragon. "But that doesn't mean that I absolutely love him either!"

Val giggled a bit before going back to clinking his cherry toy. Filia noticed how depressed her little Val was. She didn't like it when her son was sad! She thought for a moment and then made a suggestion.

"Hey, Val! I have an idea! Why don't you write a letter to Santa Clause? It's almost Christmas, after all."

Val looked up at his mom, his face brightening. "Okay!" Valteria had almost forgotten about his letter to Santa! He scrambled to his desk and pulled out a pencil and a sheet of paper.

Filia smiled at her son. She then remembered that she had customers in her pottery shop downstairs. "I'll be downstairs. Call me if you need something, Val." Filia walked out of the room.

"Okay, Filia-Mama!" Val called. Once his Filia-Mama was gone, he began to scribble down his letter.

BlueJ: So *cough* how'd you like the first chapter? The dust clears a bit and you now see Rina in a room that is soaking with bug spray. Bits of the ceiling were missing, after getting the full blast of the bug repellant.

PurpleP: Did you love it? Did you hate it so much that you'd rather jump off a cliff than read it again? Well, tell-AAAAAAAAAH! *piece of ceiling falls on top of her head, knocking her unconcious*

BlueJ: *sweatdrop* she was saying, tell us what you think about it! Should I continue? Should I not? Should I just lay down and die? Tell me! Reviews! Reviews! Reviews! Ri-chan want reviews! So on your way out, please review! Thanks minna-san! Ja-ne!
