Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Learning Christmas ❯ Chapter 12

Epilogue

An hour later, when both friends were asleep, a figure came in the room in a of swirl snow. He was a jolly fellow with rosy cheeks, and a twinkle in his eye. His round fat belly shook like jelly when he laughed and he was dressed all in red. His hair and beard was as white as the snow outside. He was a kind soul who saw the good in all people, even the ones who some people thought were hopeless.

"What a cute couple," he said spotting the lovers asleep on the bed. "Well, they haven't been bad this year so I think they deserve a gift, wouldn't you say?"

A grunting outside answered his question.

"Right, so what do we have here for these two good hearted people?" Unslinging the black bag on his back he rummaged in it for a few seconds till he come out with two red and green presents.

"These should do nicely," he said laying them at the foot of the bed. With a twitch of his nose and a gleam in his eye, he disappeared the same way he appeared, with out a sign of him being there. A soft jingling outside could be heard as their guest left to finish his rounds for that year.

"Fox, wake up! It's morning!"

"What is it, Hiei?"

"There are presents by the bed!"

"What?"

Hiei pointed to the two packages resting at the foot of the bed. Kurama picked one up and looked at it. There was no name on as to who the sender was, just a tag with his name on it. Picking up the other one he had the same result with Hiei's name.

"They're for us," he said handing Hiei his.

They opened the gifts carefully to reveal what they had been given.

"Oh, my gosh!"

"Hn."

Hiei had been given a new black cloak to replace his old ragged one and Kurama has been given an assortment of rare seeds he spent centuries trying to find with fail. He looked over to see Hiei's confused and surprise face.

"Who gave us these," Hiei asked.

"Santa Claus, Hiei! He paid us a visit last night!"

"You told me he wasn't real."

"I told you what stories say. And besides you're a half Koorime fire demon, I'm a kitsune-ningen, and we hang out with a ningen, a half demon, an ice demon, a guide to the Reikai, and the demi-god of death, why shouldn't Santa be real?"

"If you say so, Kurama," and he tried on his new cloak. It fit perfectly.

"Merry Christmas, Hiei."

"Merry Christmas, Kurama."
