Bah Humbug. [A Jeannie and Dire christmas story]

Malik started cracking up so hard people turned to look at him.
"Dammit Mr. Cuddles! We can't take an 18 wheeler to the North Pole! That'd be suicide. Says the one who can't die..."
He laughed.
But I think there are people on the border who give these strange vehicles to people going to the North Pole.

oh yeah those aren't really made for snow and ice huh. oh yeah that looks good her and Mr. cuddles follow him to see what strange vehicles he was talking about

He led them to the people he was speaking of and found that they were lucky!
There were only two left!
The rest of them were being used by a bunch of people in suits.
"Holy crap! Those were the people at the Cheesecake Factory!"
He hopped on and rushed ahead, hoping the two were following.

muum chesecake after being distracted by cheesecake thoughts Mr. cuddles barking gets Jeannie's attention and she notices dire riding off following funny suit, guys.

wait for us Jeannie hopes on the last funny vehicle with Mr. cuddles sitting on her head she pushes all the buttons to get it to work and follows after dire

Deadlocked in the chase, he saw them turn a corner but didn't stop to turn himself.
He was lucky the snow was very powdery on top or else would have died.
He began cursing under his breath as he waited for Jeannie.
"They went that way..."
He said pointing to a valley area with ice walls.
A half a moment later, there was a loud crash.
"The hell..."
He drove to see all of the men lying dead and bloody on the packed down snow.
They were impaled by weird darts and huge ice spears.
"Hey, Jeannie... I have a theroy..."

eww gross don't look Mr. cuddles Jeannie and Mr. cuddles cover each other's eyes till Jeannie gets them far enough away so the can't see the dead guys anymore.

oww that's terrible we need to find Santa Claus he'll make it all better with Christmas magic

"What if these mobsters weren't trying to get someone out... What if they were trying to keep someone from getting in and failed?"
Right then, he felt a little sting on his neck.
He also saw one hit Jeannie and Mr Cuddles.
He pulled the dart out of his neck and began to tell Jeannie to run.
He didn't get anything out though, because he dropped down unconcious.

you think they were mobsters well? out in I thought we were going to see Santa stupid weird stuff missing with Christmas she then felt a sting on her neck huh I did think the had mosquitoes in the north pole.

she knocks the dart away thinking she's swatting away a bug. she then notices Mr. cuddles got poked to and was sleepy. she starts crying and giving the puppy mouth to mouth resuscitation.knocking the dart of him in the process Mr. cuddles please be ok I can't use you we just meet and have some many fun things to do! eventually, the puppy wakes up and licks her on the face yay your ok!!!!!!!!!

She smiles hugging the puppy then looks around confused
where Malik go he was just talking to him, we need to warn him about weird bugs here, huh never heard of sleepy flys. we might have discovered a new species She Hides Mr. cuddles in her coat to protect him from the sleepy flys then looks for dire. they find him laying in the snow.

hey what are you doing down there? making snow angels. wakey wakey sleepy head. She crouches down beside him and pokes him with a stick and Mr. cuddles pokes his head out of Jeannie's coat and slobbers on dire

He could hear Jeannie calling his name and wanted to respond, but he just couldn't his body was completely numb.
Which is why it was a shock when he stood up and began saying things he didn't mean to say.
"Oh man, I'm fine. I now know the way."
He pointed out the end of the valley and started walking.
He was walking normal, talking normal, but he wasn't in control.
He was trying to turn the other way, but his body didn't even falter.

yay your ok that's good she gives him a hug and follows along so think Santa Claus is at there I can't want to meet him

Dire marched ahead, leading Jeannie and Mr. Cuddles directly into what he assumed was a trap.
He had no clue what he was being controlled by, but he hated it.
He tried to say something like "RUN!"
But instead this came out: "So Jeannie, do you think you're on the naughty or nice list?"

When Jeannie said that, he regained consciousness for one moment.
Simply to say: "I am NOT a hero."
After that he again lost control and walked forward.

you sure you save people right?
that makes you a hero, hey are you ok? your acting kinda odd it's not like you to be so quite, did you get some bad mushrooms or something.

Jeannie wasn't sure what to make of her friend's odd change in behavior. but follow along. maybe he just wants to hurry up and get out of the cold. she liked that idea as she has never been fond of cold weather much either.

Malik marched forward only saying "I'm fine."
His brain was screaming to stop walking, but he couldn't.

well that's good Jeannie is happy he is ok. she follows along so how much far do you think it is?

I hope we get there soon I'm hungry again, are you hungry to boy?. it be nice to get out of the cold too She pets Mr. cuddles and the puppy licks her face
