Seasons Eatings/Part 1

It is a bright and snowy morning. It is about a couple of weeks after the birth of Angelo Smurf and it is almost Christmas. The Smurfs continue their hard work to prepare for the happiest time of the year. This time, there is a big Christmas tree in the center of the village. Everyone is seen participating in the various decorations from decorating the Christmas tree to joining the Smurf orchestra. Some Smurfs can be seen in their homes near the fire place as they sit in their comfy chairs, drinking hot cocoa, coffee, and Glovey’s favorite; a glass of warm milk and cookies. Yes, Glovey Smurf is experiencing his first Christmas with the Smurfs. He notices that it really isn’t that different from how humans participate in the festivities. He is seen sitting near the fire place with Angelo and Baby Smurf on his laps as he shakes his legs. Baby is seen in his usual white sleeper while Angelo wears a pink sleeper. Both appear to be asleep. Glovey is just finishing his warm milk. He gets up and takes his children upstairs to Smurfette’s bed. He kisses both of their foreheads and exits. He heads outside and sees all the snow and begins to freeze again. He runs back to quickly put on his winter suit and runs out. He notices the Smurfs only wear either a scarf, a pair of gloves, or simply nothing but their pants and hats. This puzzles Glovey. He taps on Grouchy’s shoulder.

Glovey: Hey Grouchy, aren’t you freezing?

Grouchy: I hate freezing!

Grouchy resumes walking in his usual angry manner. Glovey goes to approach the Christmas tree to see all the excitement. He sees Nanny and Grandpa sitting in mushrooms as they tell stories to the Smurflings.

Grandpa: Well, you all remember how it ended. We helped Gustav and his wife. Everything turned out Smurfy.

Nanny: It was a very touching moment for all of us. This is what this season is all about. Nothing bad ever happens around.

Sassette: Tis’ the season to be Smurfy!

A dark hooded figure appears from behind the shadows.

But not to worry. He only comes for bad children, and by zeh looks of it, you are all well behaved Shmulflings. Now, run along and be good.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Grandpa: I see no laughing matter Friar Smurf. Krampus is too real. I remember in my travels…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Grandpa begins to have a flashback about the times he traveled the world.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Grandpa: It was around this same time I believe. I was making my way back home when I had encountered a beast in the woods. I’m most certain it was Krampus. I saw him carrying a sack as he was skipping with a jolly look on his face as drool ran down his long tongue. I heard the cries of children coming from his bag. He appeared to be heading to a big hole with smoke coming out from it. I believed it was hell, the Underworld you visited, Glovey. I couldn’t let him take those children away, so I attacked the beast with the sword you have, Glovey. I shredded his sack and let the children escape to the woods with me. They believed me to be a Christmas elf. I made them promise to behave and be good… for goodness sake. He is very real, and he may have a thing against me or Smurfs to be specific. My advice is to try and not wander the woods around Christmas eve, especially Smurfs.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Glovey: Whoa…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel: Glovey, it was a story.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Glovey: Hold on now. Grandpa would never ever lie.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel: I’m not calling him a liar. On the contrary, curiosity killed the cat. All I am saying is that we shouldn’t be curious and try to investigate. It could lead to disasters. It would be wise to make sure the little ones don’t go near the woods, or any Smurf for that matter. Come, let us help the others.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Glovey: But what about Krampus?

Now stop saying his name already! I wish I didn’t even bring it up. I personally didn’t believe in this story. Even if I did, I never got the thought of misbehaving.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Glovey: I’m sorry Aksel. I didn’t mean to make you mad…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel sighs and puts his hand on his friend’s shoulder.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel: I’m not mad Glovey. I’m sorry I snapped at you. Let’s just go and have a good Smurfy time with everyone. There shouldn’t be any fighting on this blessed time of the year. You and Smurfette must join me at the chapel later with the young ones, including your own.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Glovey: Sure thing.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel is seen heading to his chapel. On his way, he noticed two figures entering the village. He recognized them as Smurfs. The male had a long gray beard with white Smurf pants and a white Smurf hat with a black sash around it. The female wore only a black Burqa, making only her eyes and hands visible. Aksel approaches the strangers.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel: I don’t recognize you two from the village. Who are you?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aasif: My name is Aasif and this is my wife Aneeqa. Are you the village leader?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Papa Smurf: Hello Friar. Who are your friends?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel: I don’t know…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aasif: To whom do I have my attention to?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aksel: Yes, vell, I really don’t need to preach anything here. By the looks of things, the Smurfs appear to know what they celebrate.

The foreign Smurfs head over to where Papa Smurf and Handy Smurf are. They head inside Papa Smurf’s house as Handy is seen working with Aviator on another Smurf house. Aksel heads over to Papa Smurf’s lab to hear what is going on.

I understand your belief and respect your decision of not participating with the others. Rest assure, for I will let my little Smurfs know to prevent any confusion.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Aasif: Thank you Papa Smurf.

It is a very long journey and it is very snowy. You should take somebody to go with you since it is a very long journey.

Both Smurfs notice Smurfette come out wearing a Santa inspired outfit. Both Glovey and Wild’s faces turn red and their tails begin to wiggle. She appears to be spinning and jumping. She goes under the mistletoe and many Smurfs line up to receive a kiss from her. She ends up giving them a kiss on the cheek.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: #0d0d0d; font-size: 13pt; mso-themecolor: text1; mso-themetint: 242">Brainy: How about a receiving a kiss from the great Brainy Smurf?
