Two weeks after the raid on Badman Island. The world is in shock. The survivors of the raid feel the most pain. And The Boy feels the most guilty. After watching the Santa tape The Boy goes into his current bed which is the top bunk in the corner of a tent filled with a bunch of other beds. Elvis follows to comfort him.
"It was all my fault.."
"What makes you think that?"
"I made you guys raid the Island"
"We were gonna do it anyways"
"Mordecai and Rigby died saving me"
"They were just doing their jobs"
"Santa sacrificed himself so I can escape."
"He did it so all of us can escape, he did it to save Earth."
The Boy looks down in shame and feels self-centered. The Mom walks in and helps make him feel better. "None of this is your fault. You saved me". "I think this was the best possible outcome considering how much stronger the enemy was," Elvis added. "But now we don't even have a Santa," said The Boy. "We might get a new one". The Boy and The Mom looked at Elvis in confusion.
"Santa wasn't always a gift delivering fat man. There was a time when Santa was feared by kings and fought gods. You see, Santa isn't one man. Santa is a title of a legendary warrior. Well it's just a theory. In Kriss's old stuff I found some books telling stories about different Santas. These books looked really old. I think a new Santa will step up and Kriss once told me that his wife gave him that hat, so I don't know maybe you have to find the new Santa"
"Im literally just a kid."
The Mom butts in, "Ignore him. I got a surprise for you!". "Did they fix my nano suit?!". "No. I got plane tickets to Japan. We're going to Tokyo and maybe other places if theres time!". "I don't think I can go" The Boy replied. "Why not?!" She asked. "I need to help out here. They need me.". "Nah we're good" said Elvis "We got it handled". "You could use some time to relax after all you've been through" The Mom told him "I know I can.." she said quietly. "I'll relax by going to sleep. Goodnight!". The Boy walked out the tent to sleep somewhere else. The Mom and Elvis look at each other with worried faces. Elvis' face switches to a flirtatious stare and The Mom rolls her eyes and leaves too.
The Boy tosses and turns in his sleep. He sees Kriss sacrificing himself again. When the explosion happens it's a huge white flash and he shuts his eyes. But when he opens them again he's in a snow storm. He feels the cold even in his dream. He walks and finds a girl. She's travelling through the blizzard as well but she floating and is escorting some really short people buried in the snow. She looks up and notices The Boy. He looks down at the short guys and looks down at his feet. He's somehow walking over the snow and hasn't been leaving any foot prints. She flying towards him and grabs his hands while smiling. She seems to be talking and looks ecstatic but he can't hear her. He's confused until he's able to hear her say something and it sounds like whispers "...the 25th…".
He wakes up in an extremely cold sweat. He looks down to his hands and they're covered in snow and so is his bed. He runs to his own bed and starts packing things in a suitcase he got from some of Kriss's stuff he inherited. He wakes his mom up early in the morning. "Im ready to go!". "I'm glad you had a change of heart but the flight isn't until next sunday. Go mark on your kitty cat calendar, December 3rd. Draw a little asian boy on it or something".
Couple of days later Elvis and both Scotts ask the boy "Why you suddenly change your mind?". The Boy straight up said "I saw a Japanese girl in my dream" the men look at each other and Elvis says "Since you are fatherless I think it's my responsibility to step up and give you the talk". "Nah man I think I got it. And it's not like that, it was a dream about Santa I think." Elvis has a shocked look on his face. "It's nothing" the boy says. They go on about their day.
It's the day of the flight. Mr Roffle Waffles asks: "Wanna know some Japan lore?"
"No"
"Fine I guess, I was gonna tell you something about santa but nevermind."
"Wait no tell me"
"Nah"
"Bruh"
"There was zombies and everything"
"OKAY JEEZ I'M SORRY"
"Nope too late"
The Boy, The Mom and Elvis drive to the airport. Elvis drops them off and they head off to Japan. Elvis stops by a gas station to get gas and some snacks. The girl at the register is a pretty one. Of course Elvis makes him move. He sticks out his hand while looking at her.
"Elvis Presley, and you are?" he says as he awaits an answer. "Oh my god! It's Elvis! I'm such a huge fan thanks for saving the world!" the young woman looks in excitement and introduces herself. He pretends to be interested and after a while he asks "so when are you off?" her smile turns to a surprised look.
