"Somewhere in the interconnecting matrix of the Internet, there was a city that came to be from a website." The Narrator began, "The chilly city was covered in pearly white snow that caked every building in sight. But throughout the snow and ice, bright colors of red and green stoked the city, showing a clear message…

Christmas was almost here.

In the City of deviantart, Christmas was right around the corner. Some of the deviants were finishing up last-minute Christmas shopping, while others enjoyed the decorations set up around town. Every deviant was excited for the holidays,” He narrated happily, before his tone became harsher.

“Except for ONE!” The Narrator shifted his attention to an apartment building’s 16^th story balcony. “The Grinch!” An awkward silence filled the air when The Narrator realized he didn't get a response.

“…The GRINCH!” He repeated. Still not getting an answer, he let out an annoyed huff and focused on the balcony. “For the love of St. Nick, why hasn't that lazy bum responded with a laugh yet? He should have…” The Narrator trailed off before he realized something. The man he was looking for wasn't there. “Candy canes!  Is he what I think he’s doing?!”

***

Traveling into the high-end apartment, The Narrator made his presence into a bedroom, and was dismayed at what he found.

Dressed in a black vest, white dress shirt, red tie, dark grey dress pants, and his white socks, zeroman64 was sprawled out on his bed, sleeping like a log. To his right was a Nintendo 3DS, evidence of long hours into the night playing video games.

The Narrator sighed, and cleared his throat. “Alright, here goes. *ahem* WAKE UP, LAZY BUM!” He shouted, instantly knocking Zero out of his slumber.

Rubbing his ears, Zero frantically looked around for the cause of his rude awakening. “Whowhatwherewhyhowwhenbacon?” He asked all at once. Glancing around, he saw nobody. “Is someone in my…?”

“Good afternoon, sleepyhead.” The Narrator’s voice boomed. After an awkward silence, Zero sighed.

“What do you want? I have to cook the chili for family that’s coming over.” He asked in an annoyed way.

“You don’t remember our agreement?” He asked in disbelief.

“What agreement?”

“The one last night, when you were freaking out about not having a Christmas story up.” Putting his hand to his chin Zero thought about the events the previous night.

“In case of Christmas special, break glass?” Zero questioned as he examined the glass case mounted on his bedroom wall. Inside was a simple candy cane and Santa hat, while underneath the glass was the label in question.

Before Zero could do anything else, a voice suddenly shouted behind him, "Bingo!" and shattered the case in front of him, suddenly, everything flashed white.

Zero shook his head. "Nope, nothing." A smacking sound that implied that The Narrator was facepalming was heard. Rolling his eyes, Zero looked up into the thin air. "Look, how about this: I'll go along with whatever you want me to do, and in exchange, you'll leave me alone. Sound fair?"

"Fine." He huffed, "Look, since I know how much you love How the Grinch Stole Christmas, we're doing a parody of that. Since their are multiple characters created by other deviants in this building, we'll go and kidnap them, take them to somewhere else, discover the true meaning of Christmas, and then release them unharmed and have some Christmas dinner."

Zero smiled, "Great! And since we're doing a Grinch parody, I have an outfit just for the occasion!" Jumping off of his bed, Zero pulling out a drawer from underneath, revealing a modified business suit. The suit's trench coat was red with a dark green inside, which contrasted with the darker red color of the pants. A white undershirt was underneath the coat, and a red and white striped tie, similar to a candy cane. Brown boots, black fingerless gloves, and a ruby-red fedora completed the outfit.

"Wait, you planned for this?" The Narrator asked.

"Kind of." Zero responded. "You see, I've been combining magic and technology to create binding tools for my 'job'. For giggles, I made a Christmas themed one." he said as spun around incredibly fast, like a tornado, before jumping into the drawer. Three seconds later, Zero was dressed in his red and white business suit. "One last thing." he remembered, and placed a Santa hat over the fedora. "There we go!" He then grinned. "Y'know, I actually pretty excited for this!"

"Good." The Narrator beamed, "Let us begin the story for real now."

***

"Night had fallen, and most, if not all of the characters have fallen asleep. It is now that zeroman64 begins to make his move. His move to kidnap Christmas." 

"Or, at the very least mildly inconvenience it." 

The Narrator ignored him and continued, "Making his way to the first notable apartment in the building, zeroman easily picked the lock of the front door and made his way inside to the living room. Looking around, he located the bedroom of  Debbie Drummond. Tiptoeing into the bedroom, Zero could make out the redhead snoozing peacefully. He smirked, and with a tip of his hat, the red coattails extended, and quickly made their way over to Debbie. Debbie snored lightly before she was woken by something soft tickling her legs."

"Is it morning alread-HEY!" The redhead shrieked and began to thrash in her bed.

"But it was too late for her. Before Debbie could scream another word, the coattails wrapped themselves around her mouth and between her teeth, forming a bow, silencing her. She couldn't make as much as an 'mph' without zeroman... allowing it... why would you design it so that she can be completely silenced or mostly silenced?" The Narrator asked Zero. 

Zero only shrugged and replied "Just 'cause."

Shaking off Zero's answer, The Narrator continued, "Debbie, dressed in her violet nightgown, was now partially mummified in the red ribbon-like coattails. From ankle to lower knees, upper knees to upper thighs, belly to lower chest, and finally upper chest to shoulders. Glaring at the intruder, Debbie thrashed to escape her bindings. zeroman smiled, and bowed with a tip of his hat."

"My apologies, beautiful, but I require your assistance this fine night." He said politely before walking over to the struggling redhead, "Now if you would please..."

"D-Debbie?!" A startled gasp said as Zero tensed. 

"Turning around, he saw the blonde hair of Honey Hudson, Debbie's best friend, standing in the doorway. She was barefoot, and dressed in a light blue nightdress. Wasting no time, zeroman activated his coat, this time the green undercoat snaring her helpless damsel in under ten seconds, Honey was tied and gagged the same way as Honey."

Dragging Honey over to Debbie, Zero bent down to eye level with the blond and patted her head, "Like I told your friend, my apologies. In actuality, I WAS going to capture you next, but this was much easier. Now then..." Zero walked over to the two struggling beauties and lightly press his gloves their mouths and noses.

“Soon, Debbie and Honey were fast asleep.”

Pulling out his phone, Zero selected an app and pressed a big red button on the screen."I'll be seeing you soon with company, ladies!" Soon, Debbie and Honey disappeared into thin air. "Two down, a whole lot left. You know what that means, right?" He asked the narrator.

"MONTAGE TIIIIIME!" Composing himself, The Narrator continued, "And of course, we'll be using THAT song. An edited one, but the same song."

Zero sighed, "Oh, great. Now I get to be insulted by Tony the Tiger. Whatever, I won't like it, but I'll put up with it. Roll the music!" He called. On cue, the trumpets began to blare.

“You're a mean one, zeromaaan! You really aaaaaare a heeeeeeeeel!"

With a smile, Zero's coattails wrapped themselves around Alex Audrey, Natalie Dalry, and Hana Smith, all dressed in their pajamas. Alex and Hana had red ribbons tied around them, while Natalie's bindings were green. After tying a ribbon bow gag in between each of their teeth, Zero sent the trio back to sleep and teleported them away.

"You're as cuddly as a cactus; you're as charming as an eeeel..."

Before they knew what was going on, Sara Phillips and Rachel Simpson were tied back-to-back with green ribbons and bow gags. Harriet Palmer and Abigail Swann tried to sneak up on Zero, but his coat wrapped them up with red ribbons. After shoving a small stocking into each of their mouths, Zero tied a bow gag in-between their teeth before giving the CGDA whiff of knockout gas and teleporting them away.

"...zeromaaaa-aan.”

“You're a bad banana with a... 

Caz and Caitlyn squirmed in their red-and-green hogties and Zero finished tying the bow gag in between their teeth. The two brunettes were each dressed in their winter clothes, having come back from a nighttime stroll.

“...greasy black peeeeeeeel.”

Zero took off his hat, and then proceeded to spin it on its brim like a basketball. He lifted it over his head as he watched Caz and Caitlyn vanish in a puff of violet light.

“You're a monster, zeromaaan. Your heart's an emmmmmpty hooooole! Your brrrain is full of spiders; you've got garlic in your soul! zeromaaaaaa-an!”

Walking through the hall, Zero saw Clarissa and Chrissy, the two red-haired guards walk past him. Grinning a small, devious grin, he stealthily followed them back to their room.

I wouldn't touch you, with a…”

"Thirty-nine-and-a-half-foot-pole?" Zero questioned, already knowing the answer.

“…thirty-nine-and-a-half foot poooooooo-ole!”

Zero’s coattails quickly put the red-headed twins in reverse hogties, in which their hands were tied in front of them to their ankles. Both were bound by ribbons the matched the shade of their hair color, and had bow-gags in between their teeth.

“You're a vile one, zeroman.”
You have termites innnn your smile!
You have all the tender sweetness…”

Zero pat Clarissa's head before clamping his glove over her mouth and nose, knocking her out.

“…Of a seasick crocodile…”

Chrissy soon joined her sister in slumber after Zero also patted her on the head.

“…zeromaaaa-an!”

“Given the choice between the two of you… I'd take the seasick crocodiiiiiiiiiiiiiiile!”

Clamping his hat on his head, Zero walked out of Clarissa and Chrissy’s room only to come face-to-face with Marie Curie Deesix.

“You're a foul one, zeroman. You're a nasty, wasty skunk!”

Zero peered over the corner of the hallway as Curie was mummified in green ribbons. The girl thrashed about on the floor, but the ribbons too strong to break.

“Your heart is full of unwashed socks. Your soul is full of gunk, zeromaaaaaaa-an!”

Curie disappeared in a flash after Zero finished tying the bow gag in-between her teeth. He then yawned and cracked his knuckles.

“The three words that best describe you, are, and I quote: "Stink. Stank! STUNK!"”

Zero lifted up his arm and sniffed, “I don’t smell THAT bad, do I?”

“You're a rotter, zeromaaaa-an. You're the king of siiiiinful sots!”

Suddenly, Zero heard a shifting noise behind him. Turning around, he saw his own OCs, Becky and Emmy, staring back with surprise looks on their faces.

“Your heart's a dead tomato splot with moldy purple spots…”
zeromaaaaaaaa-an!

The two made a book for it, with Zero chasing after them as his coattails only had so much range.

“Your soul is an appalling dump heap…”

While it seemed the two friends were about to escape, Emmy then tripped over the carpet. Becky turned around to help her friend, which proved to be their undoing.

“…overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable…”

Soon, Zero wrapped his coattails around the two amateur detectives. Becky had green ribbons wrapped around her wrists, around her waist, around her knees and above and below her knee. Emmy had the same bindings, but with red ribbons instead.

“…mangled up in taaaaangled up knoooooots!”

“I’m going to need you two to roll with me for a bit. Hope you don’t mind- but I’m sure you do.” Zero awkwardly ‘reassured’ his OCs. They simply glared at him.

“You nauseate me, zeroman! With a nauseous suuuuuper-naus! You're a crooked jerky jockey and you drive a crooked horse, zeromaaaaaaa-an!”

Giving the two a whiff of knock-out gas from his glove, Becky and Emmy quickly fell asleep.

“You're a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich…”

“See you two later.” Zero said as he sent them off.

“…With arsenic saaaaaaaaaaauce!”

***

Looking at his list, Zero checked off Becky and Emmy names. Then, he smiled. “We’re done with Phase 1, now for the Grand Finale. …Maybe now I can get this jerk off my back.” He murmured.

“What was that?” The Narrator asked.

“Nothing.”

“Anyway, you remember that massive Christmas tree the apartments put up every year? That’s the next chapter.”

“Oh, I see what you mean. And I think I know what to do…” Zero stroked his chin thoughtfully. “Now where am I going to find sixteen human-sized stockings?”

***

"Thank you, Deus ex Machina!” Zero called out happily.

On top of the apartment complex where he lived, there was a large Christmas tree put up every year. However, Zero had appropriated it for his own use, as the tree was now decorated with sixteen stockings contained his captives.

“From the top of the tree was Curie, then bellow her were Becky and Emmy, followed by Alex, Natalie, and Hana, then by Sara, Rachel, Abigail and Harriet, in the next row, and then Caz, Caitlyn, Chrissy, Clarissa, Debbie and Honey at the bottom. Each was now wide awake from Zero’s gas, and was now remained completely still as to try and not fall of the tree’s branches.” The Narrator read. Each girl mewled into the ribbons tied into their mouths, with more than the majority glaring at Zero, who simply ignored them.

"...So, now what? We have everyone here, and they're tied on the tree. Now what?" Zero asked. The Narrator chuckled.

"Ah, but soon, an unexpected wrench was thrown into zeroman's plans."

Zero's eyes widened slightly, "Wait, what."

"Suddenly, it began to snow. A lot. Zero then realized that their was meant to be a blizzard tonight, and he didn't have a lot of time to get his captives down before they froze from hypothermia."

"Wait, what?" Zero repeated, before slapping his forehead, "Well, this sucks. The Narrating Jerk tricked me. I think." he gritted his teeth, "How am I supposed to get them down from up there? The tree is as big as two transport trucks stacked on top of each other!"

"Zero quickly contemplated his options as the wind around him began to pick up. The women in the trees began to shiver. An unexpected gust of wind easily blew off Zero's hat. Looking behind him to where it landed, Zero perked up upon seeing the solution to his problems."

 Zero pointed his index finger into the air, "I got it! That conveniently-placed trampoline!"

"Grabbing the conveniently-placed trampoline, he placed it underneath the base of the tree. Climbing on top, Zero began to bounce on the snow-covered wire."

One-by-one, Zero was able bounce higher and, eventually, was able to grab the damsels in midair and let them down to safety. Placing the group into a circle, they all looked him at in confusion. Zero looked an them, then began to explain, "Yeeeeeah, see, I did all this mainly to get the Narrating Jerk to leave me alone. Y'know, THAT guy." Some of the women still looked confused, while others  made a noise that seemed like understanding. Zero shrugged, and pulled out his phone again. Upon seeing this, the captives began to glare at him again, the special ribbons preventing any actual noise from coming from their mouths.

"Look, just because I'm letting you go doesn't mean I won't untie you. Besides," Zero smiled again, "I still need to give all my friends on dA their Christmas presents, do I not?" Smirking as he pressed the button, each of the damsels disappeared one-by-one. He tipping the brim of his hat down so that it covered his eyes. "Merry Christmas, everybody. ...I see the Narrating jerk isn't here anymore."

A pair of hands clamped down on his shoulders. Zero tensed up slightly until he heard the peppy voice from behind, "Wow, this would make a great story, y'know?" Turning around, Zero saw Alexis, his scarlet-haired muse wearing a Santa girl outfit, floating in front of him.

Zero raised an eyebrow. "I haven't seen you in a while. What've you been up to?"

"Noooth-thing." Alexis responded sheepishly. She was hiding something, Zero knew it. Then he noticed something.

"What's that you've got behind your back?"

Alexis' eyes widened in surprise. "N-nothing! Nothing at all!" Bingo. Suddenly, the voice that shattered the glass in his flashback made sense.

Grabbing Alexis' shoulders, Zero quickly spun her around, causing Alexis to drop something. A wireless microphone. Picking it up, Zero turn it on and spoke into it.

"Echo. Echo echo echo...." The voice of the Narrator boomed. Zero looked at Alexis incredulously, who simply smiled sheepishly.

Zero sighed, "What am I going to do with you?"

***
"The very next day, on Christmas morning, zeroman64's friends received a very surprising gift. Underneath their trees were the OCs he kidnapped, still bound and gagged by the ribbons he had tied them with. The only difference was a tag that contained only a stylized -ZM64 on it. Everyone was confused but happy, at the very least, with their gifts. everyone happily spent the rest of the day opening presents, meeting with family, lazing about, and generally having a good time."

"A Merry Christmas to All, and to All a Good Night!"

Leaning back on his chair, Zero smiled as he proofread the last paragraph. Putting his hand behind his head, he glanced back to the figure behind him. "Thanks for the story idea, Lex!" He said.

Alexis rolled her eye, and mumbled into the bow tied into her mouth: "Nhh'rm wmlghmm, nhh lhzn bhm. Mmrrn Ghrnftmhf. (You're welcome, you lazy bum. Merry Christmas.)"
