"Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all way," I sing as I open a box Angel had just set down. "Darla! Its mistletoe~." My cousin comes over with a raised brow before picking up the bag.
"And what were you planning to do with that?" Darla's voice raising a little as she holds it out at arms length, almost as if it could jump out and attacker her.
But then her eyes light up and a grin of mischief, "Oh... Are these for you and Neku?"
"Wha... NO!" I shout as my face heats up.
She just smirks and skips off, "I'll be putting these up randomly so you and him can finally do what you've been thinking."
"What I've been...Darla!!!" I shout as she continues on and Angel drops off another box.
"Ignore her," His voice is soft even if his gaze is cold. "She isn't worth your time." He's recycling words I had told him back when she first started becoming horrible, and they suck to hear.
I sigh, "You're right... December is a month of forgiveness." I text Neku and Shiki:
SOS. Need help at abandoned warehouse... Bring lots of people.

SOS. Need help at abandoned warehouse... Bring lots of people.
Nami was in trouble.
I sent out a message to anyone in the area; Nami needs help at the Abandoned Warehouse. Come prepped for battle. ~The Head
And then? I took the Car.

Nami needs help at the Abandoned Warehouse. Come prepped for battle. ~The Head
He checked the message; that meant trouble. Five minutes later, he was in the backroom.
"Tifa!" he called. "Namine's in trouble, there's something going down at the warehouse. I'm grabbing Seifer, and I'm going in."
"I'll come with," Tifa replied, pulling on a pair of fighting gloves. Shouting to one of the assistant managers, she followed Lea out.

A ringtone of harsh metal chords sang from the ockets of one trenchcoat-wearing Halfer gang leader.
There's something big going down at the Warehouse; I'm sure you know where that is. Thought you might want in on the fun -Lea
Seifer grinned.
Suit up boys! We're goin' in!
He cracked his knuckles, and several gang members chuckled darkly.

I leaped out of the car, not even bothering to close the door with my hand; this wasn't time for idle motions.
.....except. There was no Crossing.
"Namine?" I called out. "Nami, what's up?"

I hear Neku's voice and I hop up to go to the large sliding door shut to keep out the cold wind, Angel walks up next to me with out question and together we open it. I smile at Neku, "Hey, Boss."

I was.... confused.
"Nami, what's going on? Where's the Crossing? Are you alright?" I glared at Angel. "Are you teh reason she texted me? I swear...!"

As I can see Angel beginning to get ready to do... something I step in front of him and glare at Neku, "Neku Sakuraba!!! First off there is no crossing. Second, Angel has been a help today. Third if you start a fight I will have Darla remove you."
"HEY! I'm not part of this," Darla calls from the more shadowy parts of the warehouse. I just cross my arms and stare Neku down.

My confusion only got worse.
"But, if there's no Crossing, and, ahm...." I cut off what I was going to call Angel, "your bodyguard isn't being his usual self, then what the hell was the SOS for?!"

"I need help," I say rather icily. "With decorating... You think I was gonna get this done by myself?"

I breathed a sigh of relief, relaxing immediately, even as I felt the familar twinge of annoyance.
"Oh, god, Nami. I thought you were in serious trouble! I"m... I'm glad you're okay, but, seriously, you scared me."

"Scared you?! Neku... I," I frown and then sigh. "That's not the type of message I would send if I was in serious trouble... I wouldn't be able to think right... If anything it would of been blank."

I blinked.
"Blank message means real trouble. Got it."
I took a deep breath, sighed.... then, as I heard the sound of a very familiar motorcycle coming towards us, I put a hand to my forehead, realizing what I'd just done.
"Oh, no."

"What?" I ask in question as I hear the sound of a motorcycle. "Neku... What did you do?"

"I...."
I massaged my temple.
"You said 'bring lots of people'. I thought you were in real trouble... So, I, ah.... called for backup." I coughed. "I.... texted half the Network...."

I stare a moment before shaking my head and taking him my by the shoulders. I smile up to him, "Now I'm only saying this for your own good... You. Are. A. Dumb ass... Comprende?"
