A Fairy Merry Christmas 1of14

Story: A Fairy Merry Christmas
:It begins in the winter time as snow has fallen upon the valley and all over and what a beautiful sight it creates-it was like a winter wonderland in the Truffula Valley as snow covered the Truffula Trees abit and when the sun shined on them it made them shine a bit, yet it was pretty unique. The Humming Fish slided on the ice of their river as they were enjoying it even a few Barbaloots were playing about with a Swammie Swan duckling and meanwhile at the Once-ler's house it shows Christmas decorations were placed outside-christmas lights that made it glow abit and there was a shack tent Emerald placed up for the animals to keep warm in even the Humming FIsh so they don't freeze and speaking of Emerald. Within the Once-ler's house Emerald was busy at work getting Christmas decorations up around the house with help from Pipsqueak and Lorax-the Once-ler meanwhile was in town getting a few things.:
The Lorax and Pip were setting up a few figurines around on the dining table, arranging them one way, better changing their minds. Over and over again.
Lorax, looking at their current set-up: Hmmm..... I don't know if I like the snowman to the LEFT of the reindeer....
Emerald: :Flying over as she looked at it as she too wondered as she looked at the figurines.: Maybbeee the Elf should be right of the reindeer....and the snowman left.
ip looks as he soon picked up the elf as he placed it right of the reindeer and then the snowman left of it. Both Emerald and Lorax looked at the arrangement closely even Pip as they circle around as each one as they smiled with a nod.:
Emerald: Perfect.:Smiling:
Lorax, nodding with a smile: I agree. Perfect! Now we just need to set up some of the other things.
Emerald: :Nodding with a smile as she soon flew to her cozy bed as she went to her backpack as she opened it up as she took out a pine tree seed as she flew toward a  medium-pot in the room as it had dirt in it as she flew in it as she smiled.:
ipsqueak got up with the Lorax's help as he helped her dig a small hole to place the seed in as Emerald dropped the seed in. Then the Lorax took the water pail as he watered it. Soon Pip got down as he and Lorax step back as Emerald used her magic to help the Pine tree grow as she flew up to help it to grow to the exact height-not too big, but not too small, but just right. And wala! They had a beautiful pine tree for a Christmas tree to decorate it. Pip and Lorax were quite amazed.:
Emerald: How does it look? It isn't too big is it?:Flying back as she looked at it.:
Lorax: Are you kidding? It looks great! :smiles up at the tree: Nice and plump.
ipsqueak nodded as he giggled looking at it.:
Emerald: :Smiling as she blushed abit: Thanks..It'll make a great Christmas tree and when Once-ler comes home we can decorate it...do you think he'll love the decorations? We didn't go overboard did we?:A little concerned as she looks around the house.:
Lorax, looking around too: Oh, I'm sure he'll love it. This is the Once-ler we're talking about, remember? :laughs a bit:
Emerald: :Giggling: Your right...still I just love Christmas its my most favorite holiday of the year....well that and um....:Trying to think: Midsummer Day. When the snow comes sprinkling down and how it sparkles in the sun....the decorations. caroling around town...Seasonal berries that grow in the winter...family and friends coming together to embrace the season....and being together on such a magical holiday.:Twirls abit in the air happily.:
Lorax, smiling: Yeahh... Winters in the Truffula Valley are great! With all the snow on the trees and all...
Emerald: I know....its so beautiful....The valley is so beautiful even during the winter season.:Smiling looking at the closed up window as she peeked by the side looking out.: It really is quite magical in its own way....:Soon she flew to the bowl of cookie dough for sugar cookies as she saw it was all mixed up.: I think next I'll get the sugar cookies st-
efore she can finish or do anything the door opens up and a familiar voice calls out which startles them all even Emerald abit more as she bumps into the stirring spoon.:
Once-ler: Emerald! Ooohh EMMY! :walks inside, feeling rather bouncy:
Emerald: umping into the stirring spoon as she soon fell into the cookie dough and SPLAT! She was covered in it as she rose up in it to look, yet she licks some off her arm as she smiled.:
nce-ler walked in with a few bags that he bought in town as he hummed a Christmas song as he closed the door behind him.:
Once-ler, setting the bags on the table: Da da dumm.... da da da da.... in the laaaane, snow is glistenin'.... A beautiful si--...... Emerald? You around here? :walks into the kitchen, looking around:
nce-ler soon saw the bowl of cookie dough that was made as he walks over to it.:
Once-ler, eyes lighting up: Ooh! :looks around again: ... Emerald? If you're around here, I'm NOT tasting a bit of dough.... :grins as he picks up the spoon - the same one Emerald was in!:
:Meanwhile Pipsqueak and Lorax climb up on the table as they got a view-yet they wondered where Emerald was? But then Pip with a good eye saw a pair of wings stick out abit from the dough Once-ler had on a spoon.:
Lorax, gasping after Pipsqueak pointed this out to him: Oh no! ONCE-LER! Stop! :runs out, waving his arms frantically:
Once-ler, using his tongue to lick the dough a bit: ..... Relax, guys, it's just a little batter, Emerald won't mind!
:Soon he opened his mouth to place it in and as he did slowly Emerald got scared as she tried to get out of the batter, but was a little stuck yet her wings flickered fast trying to pull out and it tickled the Once-ler's nose and as it did he felt a sneeze coming on.:
Once-ler: Ahhhh.... ahhh... AaaCHOO!
Peww! Emerald went flying off the batter in the spoon, landing right in a bowl of something odd.
Once-ler, sniffing and wiping his nose: Ooh, I hope I'm not getting a cold. uts the whole spoonful of dough in his mouth:
Lorax: NOOO!
nce-ler looked at Lorax and Pipsqueak oddly wondering why their acting strange about him sampling some of the cookie batter.:
Once-ler: Guys, seriously, take a pill, it's JUST a little c--
Lorax, tugging on his mustache: No no no noooo! It WASN'T cookie dough! It was EMERALD!
Once-ler, choking on the dough in his mouth: WHAT?! EMERALD! Oh NO! I ate her!
nce-ler began to panic wondering what to do-He ate his true love!? How could he be so careless! As he was panicing Pip saw some movement coming from one of the small bowls with the blue sugar sprinkles going to be used to sprinkle onto the sugar cookies as he saw something rise up from it.:
Emerald: :Shaking off the blue sprinkles from her hair and face abit as she heard Once-ler in a panicy state.:
Once-ler, gripping his hair tightly: Oh noooo! This can't be happening?! Quick quick! :runs around like a mad-man: I gotta get her OUT OF THERE!!
Emerald: :Confused as to what he is doing as she looked at Pip who looked at her confused too as he picked her out of the bowl as he helped brush her off as she soon flew toward him slowly yet keeping a distance wondering if he's okay.: Once-ler are you okay?
nce-ler yelps abit as he heard Emerald's voice, yet he thinks she could hear him from inside.:
Once-ler, letting out a shriek: EMERALD! uts his hands on his stomach, bending over: Don't worry! I'll get you OUT of there!
Emerald: :A little confused looking at him oddly as to why he's looking at his stomach: Out of where? I'm over here Once-ler? Right behind you....how come your talking to your stomach? Is it an odd Human tradition you do during the holidays?
Once-ler: Right behind m-- EMERALD! :whips around as he sees her: THERE you are! :Suddenly reaches forward and grabs her, hugging her against his cheek: Ooohh I thought you were gone for sure!
Emerald: :Against cheek cheek with cheek a little smooshed.: But I'm right here-I've been here all day.......why did you think I was gone?:Confused looking at him: Me, Lorax and Pip were putting up decorations and I made a Christmas tree and got started on some christmas goodies-even got the gingerbread pieces ready so we can build a gingerbread house and other things. And I was going to bake the sugar cookies until well..I fell in the batter after you starteld me when your voice boomed so loud.
nce-ler soon placed her in his hand as he looked at her he saw there was some batter on her and some blue sugar sprinkles too in her hair.:
Once-ler, plucking a little sugar crystal off her: How in the world did you get sugar in your hair??
Emerald: Well I flew into the bowl of blue sugar sprinkles that are going to be used with others for the sugar cookies when we decorate them. I kinda flew into it when you sneezed.
Once-ler, nodding in understanding: Ohhhh I see..... When I ate some of the cookie dough, I thought I had accidentally eaten YOU too! How HORRIBLE would that be! If I ate my little love... :smiles weakly at her, starting to calm:
Emerald: :Smiling at him as she hugs his thumb.:
:Lorax and Pipsqueak smiled and were relieved that Emerald was alright.:
Emerald: Oh did you see the Christmas tree that I grew when you came in? I used a pine tree seed to grow one so we can decorate it for Christmas.
Once-ler: Huh? Christmas tree? :looks around, beaming when he saw the tree: Woahhh! It's amazing!
Emerald: :Smiling as she hid a blush: Thanks....I hope I didn't make it too big or spacey or anything.....I want it to be just right.
Once-ler, walking over to inspect it: No no no! It's just perfect! I can't WAIT to start decorating it!
Emerald: Me too!;Looking at herself: But before I get the cookies in the oven I have to get cleaned up. Hahahaha seems like I accidentally decorated myself...I'm like a Living Fairy Sugar Cookie.
nce-ler laughed abit at her joke. Awhile later as Emerald got washed up in the bathroom as she was in human form the sugar cookies were baking in the oven as Pipsqueak was looking at the tinsel cutely as he brushed it with his paw to get a feel of it for he never saw it before.:
Emerald: By the way I couldn't help, but smelt that your breath smelled like Candy Cane when I was near your mouth.:All dressed in new clothes as they were quite warm and festive-like.:
Once-ler, looking up from where he was rummaging through a box of decoration: Huh? What was that, Em?
Emerald: Oh uh...nothing. Say Once-ler tell me back home-did you and your family celebrate Christmas?;Curious as she pondered: Did you decorate your farm with decorations? Have a tree in your house? Sung carols? Made cookies? Had SeasonaL Berry cake? And all that?
Once-ler, trying to think: Ummm... Let's see... back when my dad was still around, we used to have family over, have a little get-together.... with presents.... I think?
Emerald: Oooh well having family together is one of the most important and wonderful things on Christmas-Having everyone together being friends and family.:Smiling: It must of been nice when your family got together on Christmas.
Once-ler: Yeah, WHEN they got together.... My dad's family would always come, and show us a great time, but.... for some reason, no one from my mom's side would...
Emerald: Huh?:A little confused: What do you mean Once-ler? Do you mean that your mom's side doesn't get into the Christmas spirit during the holidays?
Once-ler: Nooo way.... My mom's family just about HATES Christmas..... always have. Although... I don't remember why....
Emerald: Gaspp...;Hands over mouth: HATES CHRISTMAS?:Surprised and shocked as she moved her hands away from her mouth:.......I never heard of anyone hating Christmas before......that's just..........that's just.......terrible. Everyone loves Christmas-its the most magical time of year for peace on earth, good will toward fairies and.......being together and having a wonderful holiday...I never heard of a person or their family hating Christmas before..
Once-ler, messing with a short piece of his hair: Yeah.... we thought it was weird too.... Whenever my family would have a reunion for the holidays, my mom would always count herself out on the festivities... And after my dad wasn't around anymore, she wouldn't let us celebrate it at all...
Emerald: You mean....no Christmas tree? No baking cookies?......Not even telling christmas stories around the fire?:Looking at him sadly as she listened to his story:
Once-ler: Nope. I brought a Christmas cookie back for her from school one day, and she tossed it away. Same thing happened the next school day, with a piece of tinsel. Needless to say, after a while I got the picture...
Emerald:......T--that's so sad.......;Looking away as she had some tears in her eyes as she wiped them:
Once-ler, shrugging as he looked away: Eh... you get used to it...
Emerald: Not me......I would be devastated if my town was like your mother and they gave up on the Christmas spirit........It would make me very upset.....
ipsqueak looked at Emerald sadly as he tugged at her pants leg as she picked him up as she held him in her arms.:
Once-ler, reaching over to ruffle Pipsqueak's fur: Yeah.... but my mom's word is law... :laughs a bit bitterly: Not really much we could do about it.... especially when I was just a little kid...
Emerald: Law or Not......Nobody should give up celebrating Christmas.......or lose touch on the Christmas spirit...I mean...Christmas for me......well....its very special....its take time of year that miracles happen and there's magic in the air.
:Soon christmasy music began to play as Emerald was starting to sing.:
Emerald: :Singing:
Christmas is that special season
Where there's a kind of magic
Thats all around us-even when we can't see it
It warms our hearts with kindness and love
A time for helping those in need
To being with those you love
Its a wonderful holiday
Where a miracle can happen
As precious memories are born
That we treasure within our hearts
Christmas is a magical time
Where friend and family come together
To embrace the magic of the season
Ice-skating on the pond
Singing carols with your friends
Sledding down the hill on bark
Decorating a christmas tree
Making a gift for your loved one
Its a wonderful time of year
Where memories are made
Stories that are written
To tell to our children
Of our magical christmases
Yes, Christmas is a magical time of year
Where neighbors help one another
Spreading cheer and joy to everyone
A little kindness can make a big difference
As the magic of christmas fills our hearts with love
Oooh Christmas is a magical time of year
Where dreams can come true
As the impossible becomes possible
Anything can happen
During such a magical time
Oooh Christmas is a magical time of the year
Once-ler, repeating softly to himself: "A little kindness can make a big difference. As the magic of christmas fills our hearts with love. Christmas is a magical time of year"... That's the truth.... I just wish I could remember more about the holidays I spent with my dad and the family, you know? :smiles a bit at her:
Emerald: :Nodding and soon has an idea: Say maybe the Christmas Fairy could grant your wish to help remember more on those wonderful Christmas memories you had with your dad and his family. If there's anyone who can make it happen its her.
nce-ler is a little confused when she said "Christmas Fairy".:
Once-ler, looking at her strangely: ..... Christmas fairy? What "Christmas Fairy"?
Emerald: You never heard of the Christmas Fairy?...Well....you see...the Christmas Fairy named Noelle delivers presents to Fairies everywhere. She's said to live in the North Pole and works alongside Santa. She makes wishes come true and delivers gifts to fairies. Growing up I heard stories about her-I even wrote to her too and on Christmas eve I would leave berry cookies and Honey dew milk out for her.:Smiles: And one time I thought I saw her one Christmas eve night long ago.
Once-ler: Really? I guess she's kind of like Santa himself, then... But how could she help us? Especially is she lives all the way up in the North Pole...
Emerald: :Giggling: Sillly I said she grants wishes-I'm sure if you wrote to her I bet she'd be very happy to grant your Christmas wish.:Smiles: I always write to her and Santa each year and I still do.
Once-ler: But, I mean... how would she-- like... never mind... Do you think she would really help me remember?
Emerald: :Smiles: Of course she will....its Christmas afterall...anything can happen.:Soon walks over to his desk: And I'm sure she'll help you remember.
nce-ler smiled as he walks over to the desk to help her find some paper. Awhile later Emerald and Once-ler were writing some letters-one for Noelle the Christmas Fairy and the other for Santa. Pip and Lorax joined in to write christmas letters and wishes too. Emerald of course helped Pip with what he wanted to say to Santa and Noelle.:
The bar-ba-loot got his point across to Emerald eventually, mostly by pointing insistently at the object that he wanted for Christmas. Which was mostly things such as marshmallows, other candy, or toys. What else would a little one want?
Lorax, thinking as he looked on his own paper: Hmmm... Ooh, got it! :writes some more:
Emerald: :Smiling as she was writing her letters now, but she keps her arms around so nobody would peek-she didn't want them to know about her Christmas wishes she was writing to Santa and Noelle. Of course she let Pip peek as she whispers: You can look, but no telling okay?
Once-ler: Mm? :slowly leans over toward Emerald, subtly trying to see what was written on her paper:
Emerald: :Seeing Once-ler trying to look over, but soon places arms over it so he didn't see: Uh uh. No peeking.
Once-ler, rolling his eyes: Oh come on! Just a peek? You've got me curious now. :leans over further in his chair:
Emerald: :Keeping her arms above it as she soon points: Look a sugar plum fairy.
nce-ler looked and soon as he did that Emerald shrinks to Fairy size with her letters as he flew so to write them. As he looked back he wondered where EMerald go and saw her flying back to her bed to write her letters.:
Once-ler, frowning: Hey! :soon smirks and drops to the ground to crawl across the floor toward the bed, before peeking over the edge of it at her:
Emerald: :Writing down her Christmas wishes as she is humming a Christmas song.:
The Once-ler grinned, and peered out over the edge of the bed more, just barely catching a glimpse of her paper. Of course, the words were very small, so it was hard to make it out.
:Soon awhile later as they finished the letters they have it on the counter so they can mail them later. At this time the Sugar cookies were all baked as Once-ler and the others were soon decorating them.:
Well, Emerald and the others were decorating them, the Once-ler was more trying to sneak cookies into his MOUTH rather than on the cooling rack...
Lorax: Hey, Once, can you pass me the little white snowflake sprinkles?
Once-ler, mouth coincidently full: Mmhmm. :hands him the little bottle:
Emerald: :Carefully decorating a Christmas tree cookie with blue frosting as she looked at the Once-ler as he saw his cheeks were a little puffy from some of the cookies as he was eating as she hid a giggle.:
Once-ler, swallowing: How much more cream frosting do we have, Em? :turns away and shoves another pastry into his mouth:
Emerald: I think we still have enough to finish the bat-:Soon saw him turn his head as she looks at him confused: What are you doing Once-ler?
:The Lorax looks at the cooling rack as he saw some cookies on there-but there are some missing as he looked at Once-ler suspiciously.:
Once-ler, turning back around with his cheek a little chubby: Mmhp?
Lorax, looking at him curiously: .... Beanpole what's in your mouth?
Once-ler, shaking his head: Mmphh mm!
nce-ler hid a bitten cookie behind his back as Pips saw this and he scurried over to climb up his arm and shoulder to look behind to see what he waas hiding.:
Once-ler, giggling when Pipsqueak began climbing and looking around him: MMH! Mmmhmm MM! :swallows, trying to get the bar-ba-loot off: PIP! No no no!
ip looked down at his hand behind his back as he giggled as he slided down the arm as he reached for the cookie he hid.:
Once-ler, squirming around: PIPSQUEAK g-get off me! :thinking quickly (but maybe not smartly), whips around and drops the half-eaten cookie safely down his shirt: Hahahha, P-Pip y-you're tickling me! eels the animal of him and sets him on the ground:
:As Once-ler was distracted the Lorax whispered something to Emerald as she understood. Soon she whispered to her bracelet as she glowed turning back into her fairy form as she flew to Once-ler as she flew into his shirt collar to see what he was hiding.:
Once-ler, letting out a shriek of laughter as he felt her winger against his bare skin: Ahh! E-E-EMERALD! G-Get outta there! :writhes around again, before pulling the bottom of his shirt out untucked of his pants: AHH! :looks down at the crushed cookie falling out of his shirt ad to the ground: Uhh...... How did THAT get there?
Lorax, crossing his arms: Uh huh...
Emerald: :Soon peeking out of his shirt collar as he looks down at the broken cookie as she waved her finger playfully: Shame shame.:Giggling abit:
Once-ler, practically wailing the words dramatically: I'm sorry, they're just so tasty!
Emerald: :Giggling abit as she hugs his neck: I know. I ate a couple too when you weren't looking.
:The two laughed abit as the Lorax smiled abit along with Pip who was eating the fallen cookie on the ground cutely. After the cookies were done being decorated along with the Gingerbread house-They soon began to decorate the Christmas Tree and they had quite some help from some of the animals who came from outside from the cozy shack Emerlad made for them.::
The bar-ba-loots were, of course, good at climbing trees themselves, and they helped Once-ler decorate the top part while the Lorax and the others did the middle and bottom.
Once-ler, humming to himself as he hung a few little bows: Da da da, da da da, da dads daaa... jingle bells riiiiing and la la la la.... dancin' and prancing' in jingle bell squaaaare.... :giddily dances around a little bit:
Emily: lacing up some ornaments as she was humming a Christmas song too. She even placed up a few candy canes.:
;Yet as she did so some of them vanished as she looked confused, but soon parted the tree as she giggled seeing Pip with the Little Humming Fish and Baby Swammie Swan each had their own Candy cane as they were enjoying them, yet she smirked seeing the Lorax had two.:
Lorax, licking on the stick part: Mmmm! These things are really good!
Emerald: :Giggling as she smiled as she also took one, yet she laughed as she saw Once-ler taking one as well.:
:Awhile later Emerald takes out a special Christmas star that was quite beautiful and almost like a rainbow.:
Emerald: Here we go. This will look great on the tree-My mother sent this from home. Its something me and grandma made together long ago.
Once-ler, grinning: It's beautiful! It'll go perfect on our tree. That was nice of your mom.
Emerald: Yeah...I can't wait until they come to visit and then we'll go to my town for Christmas-it'll be a great Christmas. I can't wait until you meet my cousin Mia and my Uncle Robin and Aunt Periwinkle.:Smiling:
Once-ler, smiling: They all sound great! I can't air to meet them either. BUT, first order of business. oints to the Christmas star:
Emerald: :SMiles with a nod as she picks up the star as she carefully flew to the top of the tree as she placed it on carefully and soon flew down.: There....The finishing touch.
Once-ler, applauding: Bravo! A perfect touch-down! :smiles as he looks up at it:
Emerald: ;Smiling as she laughed abit as she looked up with Pipsqueak, Lorax and the other animals as they saw how lovely the tree is.:
:Abit later it shows the Gingerbread house as Pip kept looking at it-it was a gingerbread house that looked like the Once-ler's house with little confectionary figurines of Once-ler, Emerald and the others even edible Truffula Trees. He reached to want to eat one, but Emerald picks him up as she took out a gingerbread cookie.:
Emerald: Uh uh uh Pip. That's for Christmas. And don't worry everyone will have a piece even you.reaks off half the cookie as she hands the other half to him.: YOU too Lou.:Looking at the fat barbaloot as he almost tried to put his finger in the frosting snow.:
The two bar-ba-loots smiled sheepishly at her, as Lou tried to persuade Pipsqueak to share the cookie half with him.
ip looked at his half as he broke it in two as he handed one piece to Lou.:
Emerald: :Smiling: Very good Pip. You know when you share something with those around you like a cookie-it always tastes much sweeter because your sharing it with those you care and love. That's something grandma taught me and my brothers long ago-I even taught my sister as well.
Pipsqueak looked at her with a smile, nibbling on his cookie quarter as well as his buddy.
Once-ler, smiling as he watched this: You might want to be careful, Em. If you keep letting those bar-ba-loots munch on cookies all day, they'll have chubbed up quite a bit by spring.
Emerald: ;Giggling: You too from how you ate about five cookies today. If you keep eating them there won't be any left to put out for Christmas even for Santa and Noelle-especially the Berry cookies I made especially for Noelle....still........you know this is my first Christmas away from home......I know we'll be visiting my town and my family is coming here...but it makes me a little homesick....to be away for awhile on Christmas.
Once-ler, looking at her: Oh yeah.... Well, at least we're going to go visit, so you won't be completely away from them this Christmas...
Emerald: Once-ler isn't this your first Christmas away from home too?:Looking at him:
Once-ler, trying to think: Um..... yeah, I guess it is. Well I guess it's a first for both of us...
Emerald: :Smiles: Yeah it is.....
nce-ler yawns abit as he feels quite tired after a long day of shopping and putting up decorations and everything. He stretched abit as he decided to take a nap.:
Once-ler, looking at Emerald with a sleepy smile: Wow, I feel really drowsy all of a sudden... Yaawwwnn.... :stumbles over to lay down on the bed, closing his eyes and tucking an arm under his head: ... keep an eye on the... animals... would you, Emmy...?
Emerald: :Nodding: I will Once-ler.:Smiles: You get some rest.
Once-ler, snuggling his head into the pillow: Thanks, hon.... :sighs happily as he lets out a few soft snores:
Emerald: :Smiles as she saw him asleep as she whispers to her bracelet as she glowed turning back to her Fairy form as she flew to the Lorax with Pip.:
Lorax, looking at the sleeping Once-ler with a smirk: I swear, that man could sleep 12 hours a day...
Emerald: :Looking at Once-ler with a smile: Yeah......Still its sad though......though he had wonderful Christmases with his father and his side of the family....when it came to his mother and her family....they never celebrated Christmas at all....
Lorax, looking at him as well: Yeah, it is sad.... I wonder why, though? Why wouldn't his mom's family want to celebrate Christmas? That's just weird. Their little boy wasn't allowed get into the holiday spirit for all this years...
Emerald:.........I know....or enjoy the wonders of it either.......Its so sad.....:Looking at Once-ler a little sad:
Lorax, nodding sadly: It really is.... :looks at Emerald curiously: I hear you two talking about Noelle, the Christmas Fairy earlier... what was that about?
Emerald: Ooh well you as humans have a Santa Clause-we also heard of him, but we also heard of and know about Noelle the Christmas Fairy-she represents the Christmas spirit and she makes wishes come true during the holiday season. She helps bring gifts to every fairy around the world and would grant wishes to humans who knew about heer.
Lorax, nodding thoughtfully: Oh I see.... Then why was the Once-ler writing a letter to her, as well as to Santa?
Emerald: Because I told him if he writes to Noelle perhaps she can grant his wish for him to remember the good Christmases he had with his father and his family.
Lorax: Ohhh I see.... That was a good idea. It would be better for him to remember the good times, rather than the bad...
Emerald: :Nodding: And this Christmas will be a great one to remember. We'll make this the best Christmas ever for not just Once-ler, but all of us to remember and cherish for all times.:Smiles:
Lorax, smiling: Definitely. We'll make it the best for everyone taking part in it.
Emerald: :SMiles: The only thing left to do now is find a present for Once-ler.....but I don't know what to get him.:Thinking:
Lorax, trying to think: Hmmm.... I don't know what to give him either.... What do YOU want, Emerald?
Emerald: Huh? What do I want?:A little confused:
Lorax, nodding: Yeah. You know, what would you like for a Christmas present?
Emerald: Oh well....I don't know......it doesn't have to be fancy or anything. Just something that is thoughtful and...pretty?:Smiles abit:
Lorax, looking thoughtful: Okay. Hmm.... I can work with that. :smiles back at her:
Emerald: :Smiles at him with a nod: You know I think I'll go into town and browser-maybe in town I could find something that Once-ler could like for Christmas.
ipsqueak got excited as he raised his paw for he wanted to come along with her.:
Lorax, watching the bar-ba-loot as he waved his paw around a little: Haha, I think someone wants to go with you.
Emerald: :Giggling seeing this: Okay okay...you can come along Pip.
:Awhile later Emerald was in her human form as she was bundled up in her winter attire with her handbag by her side as Pip peeked out from it with a smile on his face as she soon flew carefully through the forest-yet her wings sparkled in the sun abit as they were coated with a special magic that protects them from freezing. She was heading to town to look for a perfect gift for Once-ler.:
Pipsqueak giggled and peeked out of the bag, waving at his animal buddies far below. It wasn't everyday he got a experience like this!
Emerald: :Flying a little high as she looks down seeing the Truffula Trees below as they looked beautiful with the snow on it. She smiled looking at the view.: Wowww....the valley looks so beautiful doesn't it Pip?:Looking at him:
He looked up and nodded at her, reaching out of her bag to hug her arm happily.
Emerald: :Looking at him with a smile as she patted his head.:
:Soon Emerald flew down as she reached Greenville as it was covered in Christmas Decorations as people were going about their daily business as they were shopping for things for Christmas. The marketplace had great deals going on even the stores around town-maybe somewhere in town Emerald will find a perfect gift for Once-ler.:
Pipsqueak oohed and ahhed at the sight if the town covered in snow. People were stringing light up on the buildings as well, and setting up the Chrristmas tree in the town square.
Emerald: :Smiling as she looked around: Its amazing how humans celebrate Christmas just like fairies do....decorating, greeting one another with a "Seasons Greetings", "Merry Christmas"....And all in the Christmas Spirit. It makes my heart happy seeing everyone in such high spirits.
Town Person 1: Good day there Emerald. Happy Holidays.
Emerald: Happy Holidays to you too sir.:Smiling as she waved to him as she walked:
Town Person 3: Happy Holidays.:Stringing up lights.:
Emerald: Happy holidays...do you need any help with those?
Town Person 3: Why thank you Emerald-I was wondering if you could.oints to the far side he can't reach.:
Emerald: :Nodding as she flew up taking the other part of the string of lights as she brought them to where he pointed as she placed them on a secure hook.: There you are.
Town Person 3: Thanks for your help Emerald.
Emerald: Your welcome. Merry Christmas.:Soon flies off as she landed on the ground carefully as she walked around.:
:Emerald looked around as she headed to the market as she looked around the little shops-she then decided to go into a store that was own by Christine and her husband Jeff.:
Emerald: Hello Christine, Jeff. Happy Holidays.
Jeff, nodding with a smile: Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you too, Emerald! How has your day been?
Emerald: Quite good and yours?
Christine: Quite well indeed. May we help you with anything?
Emerald: I'm looking for something to get for Once-ler for Christmas, but I don't know what to get him...so I'm browsing to see if there's anything that he would like.
Jeff: Ohhh I see. Well good luck in your hunt. I know whatever you choose, he'll love it. :smiles at her:
Christine: ;Nodding: If you like we could help you out by showing you some of our newest items that came in for the season.
Emerald: That would be great thank you.:Smiles:
Jeff, leading the way thought the store: Okay, right this way are a few Christmas items we just got in stock...
Christine: :Nodding: There's a hot item that's on sale that people are wanting to buy...."The Helper-Hand 3000".
:It shows an odd machine with various holes that look like they can open up as Emerald looks at it confused.:
Emerald: The Helper Hand 3000?
Jeff, motioning to it: Yes. The Helper-Hand is an interesting machine. It helps with... basically anything! resses a button on it, as a few metal "arms" pop out of the holes:
Emerald: :Surprised as she stepped back abit:
Christine: Observe. Helper-Hand can you put those decorations up onto the display tree over there please?oints toward the undecorated fake Christmas tree near the other ones.:
The machine sprung to life, arms reaching over to the box of decorations and wheeling its way over to the tree. It began strategically setting and hanging the pieces on the fake branches.
Jeff: Ta da!
Emerald: Wowww....;Amazed:
Christine: Maybe Once-ler would like an extra set of hands to help with his Thneeds.
Emerald: It is neat....but.....I don't know......I want it to be well......special.
Christine: Ooohh....:Smiles: I see. Well how about something seasonal-think about what he needs in terms of clothing-something to keep his hands warm or his feet....:Looking about as she picks up a pair of seasonal socks even Holiday slippers.: Tada! Holiday socks and slippers.
Emerald: :Looking at them as she smiled: Aww their so cute.......but.......well.......
Christine: Ahh~I see. Its very special isn't it?
Emerald: :Nodding: Very special-I want to find something that he can cherish and have for all time....sentimental value you may say?
Jeff, nodding in understanding: Ahhh I see.... Hmmm.... sentimental value you say... :looks around the store, pursing his lips thoughtfully:
Christine: :Looking around as she saw something with a smile: Ahhh~I know!:Walks over as she picks up a snowglobe.: How about a snowglobe.
Emerald: :Looking at it curiously.: A snowglobe?
Christine: A perfect Christmas present to give to the one you love.:Turns the widget on the bottom as it began to play music as she shook it abit.:
Emerald: WOwwww.....:Smiles as she looks at it quite amazed:
Jeff, looking at it with a smile: And perfect for keeping memories you want to keep a hold of.
Emerald: :Soon has an idea for a perfect gift as she kept looking at it-she was forming something in her mind.:
Christine: If you need time to think it over it'll be still here.
Emerald: Thank you.
Jeff, nodding: And you're free to look around the rest of the store if you still need ideas.
Emerald: Thank you very much.:Smiling:
