"So, you and Julien are getting pretty close?" Marlene hinted as she giggled. "What?! No!" Lexii said as she splashed Marlene. They were both floating around in Marlene's pond. Marlene nudged Lexii with her elbow. "Aw come on! You two would be good together!!" said Marlene smiling. Lexii growled just as Skipper jumped out of the manhole by the door. Lexii and Marlene screamed then glared at Skipper.
"Dry off ladies! Report to the HQ stat! Commence Operation Christmas!" Skipper smiled and disapeared back into the manhole. The girls shrugged and hopped out of the water.
Skipper clapped his hands and cleared his throat. "Ok people. Listen up! We are go for Operation Christmas! There are a lot of things that need to be done in a very little amount of time!" Skipper motioned to Kowalski and he handed everyone a sheet of paper with pictures on it.
Lexii took her list and glanced over it.
- Christmas tree
- decorate Christmas tree
- Gift exchange
- gingerbread men
"This isnt to bad!" Lexii exclaimed. "I call baking the gingerbread man!!" she smiled.
Skipper smiled back then spoke again. "Ok, first on the list is the tree. Lexii, Kowalski, Julien, myself, and Rico will pick out a tree while Marlene, Private, Maurice and Mort gather the decorations. We will meet back up here at 2100 hours. Move out!"
It was very dark in the woods. Skipper, Lexii, Julien, Kowalski, and Rico had gone into the forest just outside of town and were now walking timidly along a narrow trail. A sudden noise made them all jump. Lexii grabbed Julien's hand without thinking. She quickly pulled away and blushed.
They soon came to a clearing scattered with pine trees. They picked out one that was not to big and not to small. Rico hacked up a chain saw and started sawing away at the tree. Everyone else put their hands over their ears.
Rico laughed like a maniac and yelled "TIMBER!!!!!!"
Everyone moved out of the way as the tree crashed to the ground.They all smiled and slapped high-fives.
Skipper, Lexii, Julien, Kowalski, and Rico entered the zoo carrying the tree on their shoulders. They stood the tree up and admired it.
Marlene, Private, Mort, and Maurice came in carrying armloads of decorations. They put them on the ground next to the tree. "Where'd you get these?" Lexii asked as she looked through the pile. "Zoovenier shop." Marlene said brightly.
Skipper stood atop a rock and motioned for everyone to start decorating.
Ornaments were hung and the tinsel was strung. It took them all about an hour and all that was left to put on was the star.
They all stacked hay bales ontop on eachother so that they could reach the top of the tree. Lexii climbed up with Mort on her shoulders and Skipper tossed her the star. Lexii held Mort up and he placed the star atop the tree. Everyone cheered as Mort hopped down.
Lexii reached up to straighten a piece of tinsel. She couldnt reach it. She stepped back to the edge of the hay bales. Still couldnt quite reach it. She reached her arm as far as it could go. Lexii grasped onto a thin branch and leaned back. Almost got it...SNAP! The branch that she was holding onto snapped off the tree and Lexii tumbled backwards down to the ground.
Rico threw up a beach ball and tossed it under Lexii. She bounced off it and flew straight towards Julien. He caught her and smiled. She laughed and shrugged her shoulders. "Oopsies." she said as she giggled. Julien put her down and smiled. "Thanks." Lexii said as she smiled. Julien stepped towards her and smiled sincerely. "I will always be there to catch you when you fall,Lexii." Julien said as he leaned in for the kiss.
Skipper covered Private's eyes and smiled. Private peeked over Skipper's flipper. Marlene and Kowalski sighed dreamily and smiled. Rico made a grossed out face and covered his eyes but he still looked out from the side of his flipper and smiled.
Lexii was scared. But this just felt so ...right. She couldnt do this... "Julien, wait..." she said just as their lips brushed against eachothers. They opened their eyes. "Im sorry Julien. I just cant. I've never dated anyone. Im so sorry. I would but... just not now..." Lexii looked down sadly. Julien took Lexii's hand and squeezed it. She looked up at him. To her surprise, he smiled. "I completely understand, Lexii." he said sincerely. Lexii smiled."Thank you for understanding Julien." They smiled at eachother.
The warm smell of gingerbread wafted through the air. Skipper, Private, Marlene, Julien, Mort and Maurice sat at the table chatting. Kowalski was in his lab inventing who knows what and Rico was on tree patrol on the other side of the zoo. Lexii put on oven mits and took half a dozen gingerbread men out of the oven.
Rico burst in through the escape tunnels with a crazier-than-normal look on his face. "COOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!" he yelled and laughed like a maniac. He ran towards Lexii,who was still holding the gingerbread men, and reached for a cookie. Lexii put the tray above her head and pushed Rico away with her foot. "Not yet Rico. I havent frosted them. And how in the heck did you smell them from across the zoo?!" Lexii said as she slowly put the tray down. Rico pointed to the top of his beak where his nose is and made a "no duh" face. "Really, never would have guessed that." Lexii smiled and rolled her eyes. She took out some frosting and decorated each of the six gingerbread man.
Kowalski burst out of his lab. "It's done!!!!!! My Inanimatron is finally done!!!!!!!!!!! Hahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!"
Skipper sighed. "What does THIS one do Kowalski?..."
Lexii picked up the tray of cookies and smiled. "Cookies are done!!" she said cheerfully. Rico crossed his eyes. "COOOOOOOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" he tackled Lexii and the gingerbread men went flying. The plate flew into Kowalski and he dropped his new invention. A purple ray shot out and hit the six flying gingerbread men.
Lexii growled at Kowalski and Rico. The cookies fell to the floor and a purple glow formed around them. Everyone gathered around to watch what would happen. One by one, the cookies stood up and started walking around. Everyone gasped except Kowalski who was clapping his hands excitedly. Skipper slapped him and told him to fix this.
Suddenly the cookies laughed evily and ran out the door. Everyone rushed outside and gasped. The gingerbread men were attacking the Christmas tree!!!!! The ornaments fell to the ground and shattered.
"What do we do?!?!" Marlene asked franticly.
Skipper smiled slyly. "Rico! Kaboom! ....... Rico?"
Rico was racing towards the tree screaming "COOKIES!!!!!!" He snatched one of the gingerbread men and swallowed it. The other gingerbread men stopped what they were doing and looked at Rico. He laughed like a maniac and grabbed two more cookies. He chased after the remaining cookies and gobbled them down.
Rico raced back towards the penguin habitat where everyone was watching with surprprised eyes. "TAADAAA!!!!!" Rico yelled. Every one cheered.
The tree was still pretty much intact so they all just straightened the tinsel and hung up a few more ornaments.
Christmas eve 1900 hours
Next up was the gift exchange! Lexii carefully wraped each present in red wrapping paper and tied a small gold bow ontop. She carried the presents into the HQ and set them on the floor next to her. Everyone handed out presents.
Lexii got Skipper a coffee mug with the American flag painted on it. She got Marlene a set of paint and brushes. Kowalski got a new microscope and she got Private a Lunacorn blanket. She gave Rico five firecrackers and Maurice got a portable neck-massager. Lexii gave Mort a small popcicle maker. She gave Julien a fancy pillow for his throne and a few multi-colored feathers for his crown. They all thanked Lexii for their gifts.
Now it was Lexii's turn to get gifts. Rico gave Lexii a stick of dynamite that he had painted pink. Skipper gave her a blue camo wristband. Private got Lexii a cute bunny plushie. Kowalski gave her one of his latest potions (no idea what it does and dont want to find out). From Marlene she got a silver necklace with a few charms on it. Mort gave her a leaf in the shape of a star that he found on the sidewalk and Maurice got her a lavender scented candle.
The only one left to give a gift was Julien. He pulled Lexii aside and she could see that he was holding something behind his back. Julien smiled and handed Lexii her gift. It was a peice of wood carved into the shape of a heart. In the middle it read : live, love, laugh.
Lexii smiled and hugged Julien. "Thank you!!! Oh i love it Julien!" Lexii said as she ran her fingers over the smooth dark wood. Lexii smiled and hugged Julien again. They hugged for a few seconds then something in Lexii changed. She relized that she didn't want this hug to end. Mabey she did love Julien after all. It was to complicated to understand right now...
Christmas morning. Marlene's habitat
The sun glared through the doorway and Lexii opened her eyes. She sleepily gazed over at Julien's present which was now mounted on the wall infront of Lexii's bed. Every love song in the history of love songs played in the back of her mind. She smiled as visions of her and Julien together flashed into her head. She quickly shook her head and sat up. "AHHGGGG!!!!" Lexii yelled as she hit her head on the wall a few times.
Marlene sat up and looked at Lexii with concern. "Uh, are you okay?..." Marlene said as she slowly got out of her bed. Lexii rubbed her forehead and stood up. "Yeah I'm fine. I'm gonna take a walk in the park. Kay?" Marlene smiled and laid back down.
Lexii stepped outside into the cool air. Snow covered everything. She strode past the lemur habitat and Julien jumped out from behind the fence. Lexii was startled but then smiled at him. "Merry Christmas!!!" she said cheerfully. He smiled and told her 'Merry Christmas' back. Lexii waved goodbye and started to walk away but Julien pranced up along beside her. "Where ya going?" Julien asked as he walked closer to Lexii. "I'm going to take a walk in the park." she said. Smiling, she turned towards Julien. "Wanna come?" Julien nodded eagerly and Lexii laughed.
White. Nothing but white shining snow. It covered every inch of the park and icicles hung from the trees. It was beautful and breath-taking.
As they walked, Julien looked over at Lexii. She blended in almost perfectly with the snow. Her sparkling blue eyes twinkled like diamonds. Julien looked at Lexii's hand. He wanted to hold that hand more than anything right now. He quietly reached toward it. Lexii saw what he was doing and gave him 'the look', but she secretly wanted to hold his hand too.
They came to the top of a small hill and stopped walking. Lexii tip toed away from Julien and made a small snowball. She took carefull aim and hurled it at Julien playfully. He laughed and rolled down the hill. When he stopped at the bottom he looked up at a laughing Lexii. She laid down and rolled down the hill then came to a stop right next to Julien.
As they laid there laughing, a big chunky pigion flew straight into the tree branch above Lexii and Julien. The pigion knocked the snow off the branch and onto Lexii's head then dizzily flew off. Lexii laughed and looked up at the tree branch. "Uh-oh..." she said quietly as Julien also spotted a small gleaming mistletoe. "Heh..." Lexii looked at Julien and made an 'oh crud' face.
Julien took Lexii's hand. "We dont have to if you dont wan-" Julien stopped when Lexii took a step closer to him and smiled. Julien brushed Lexii's bangs out of her eyes and leaned in for a kiss. The moment their lips touched, they both felt something that they had never felt before- pure love. Lexii wrapped her arms around Julien's neck and he wrapped his arms around her waist. They held eachother and kissed for a few moments. When they finally broke apart, Lexii smiled at him. "Merry Christmas Julien." She turned around and began to walk away, smiling.
Julien watched Lexii walk away. She seemed to glide across the snow as her beautiful tail bounced behind her. He sighed happily and leaned against the tree. Best Christmas ever.
"Dry off ladies! Report to the HQ stat! Commence Operation Christmas!" Skipper smiled and disapeared back into the manhole. The girls shrugged and hopped out of the water.
Skipper clapped his hands and cleared his throat. "Ok people. Listen up! We are go for Operation Christmas! There are a lot of things that need to be done in a very little amount of time!" Skipper motioned to Kowalski and he handed everyone a sheet of paper with pictures on it.
