Cael05-san, Firstly, Happy Holidays to you!~

Secondly, uhm... I chose the second option, obviously. As much as I would want to choose option one, I have no idea even the slightest bit of it about Dr. Who (yet) as I haven't watched it and I'm quite sure that risking writing something I don't know would be more disastrous than beneficial. So, I have to take option two which works better since the genre is more my forte :)

Lastly, I hope you do enjoy this little something-something I wrote for you.

From your (not so) Secret (anymore) Santa,

The Mafia-ish Addiction

~Kris Kringle~

It all started a week before Christmas eve...

Tsuna and his guardians, all seven of them had gathered for an 'urgent' and 'can no longer wait' meeting. Something so important, the Decimo even had them finish whatever mission they had been given and had all of them gathered inside his office.

They all thought that Tsuna had gathered them -yes even Kyoya- for some change of plans for the upcoming Vongola Holiday Extravaganza, which would rather be confusing since it was Tsuna himself who firmly told them to leave the planning be to the more capable hands of Haru and Kyoko.

It's not about the Famiglia or any of its members being attacked either. For some reason, attacks and suicidal attempts to bring Vongola down to its knees would stop during this holiday season. Takeshi thinks that they're being considerate, Hayato simply just scoff and think that its rather stupid since holidays or not the Vongola can take all them enemies down.

It's also not about them misbehaving -well, mostly the misbehaving part goes to Kyoya and Mukuro- but even those two behaved really well for the upcoming Christmas Holiday. Apparently, both does not want any repeat performance of a demonic and sadistic Tsunayoshi when they had almost ruined Christmas - which was Tsuna's favorite Holiday- a few years back. They had been fighting, like usual and ruined most of the very much detailed and intricate decorations -since a Vongola boss should not settle for any less, words of wisdom from Reborn- And everything resulted to a very pissed Vongola Decimo.

They were forced to have a month-long sleep-over with Ryohei -who talked non-stop about EXTREME BOXING, what brand of gym socks he likes best, his sister Kyoko and for some odd reason, the benefits of a frying pan- It was never a pretty memory and Mukuro's ears still hurt occasionally.

And mostly, it's not about him needing help on his paper work -as the guardians have seen the pieces of papers neatly stuck and arranged according to urgency and importance- on their boss's what is this urgent meeting their boss is talking about?"Jyuudaime are we on some serious emergency?""What makes you think that?" Tsuna blinked in confusion."Well, it's because you usually only gather all of us together when there's some sort of emergency" The storm explained.

"Well, I guess this is to be considered as an emergency" The Vongola sky played with his chin, tapping it with his fingers "The 'we rarely have fun bonding time together and we should do something about it' emergency"The guardians stared at their sky which Tsuna simply shrugged of and enthusiastically -his face really shows as if he had just thought of the greatest idea ever - told his guardians...

"I just had the best idea for the Christmas holidays! Let's have a kris kringle!"

...Apparently all the guardians earlier assumptions were wrong. It took a few seconds for them to react.

"How childish, Tsunayoshi-kun, kufufufu"

"Hey! It's not childish" Tsuna frowned at his male mist guardian. "It's a fun activity to do for the Holidays~"

"I am not associating myself with such herbivorous activity, omnivore"

"Kyoya! Biting people to death is not the only carnivorous activity in this world! Stop thinking that way!"

"Hn."

"Boss, Why do you want us to have a kris kringle all of a sudden?" The only female guardian asked, eyes showing puzzlement.

"Well, you see, we're all too busy and we don't often see each other as much and I think that this would be the perfect activity for us to bond together" Tsuna answered sheepishly.

"But aren't we too old for it?" Takeshi asked "Not that I mind actually doing it. It sounds fun"

"No one is old enough when it comes to having fun!" Tsuna grinned at his rain guardian.

"Lambo-sama is not old!" The teen crossed his arms and pouted childishly.

"No your not old,just immature and childish" Hayato smirked at the youngest guardian.

"Waaaaaa! Tsuna-nii, Ahodera is being a meanie!" The boy -who had grown tall and would most likely surpass his Tsuna-nii's height soon- then decided to cling around the older boy's legs while slumping on the floor.

"See? Childish and immature" Hayato glared at the younger boy "Stop clinging on Jyuudaime like a koala! Arent you suppose to be a cow?"

"Lambo please go back to your seat" The teen reluctantly released and went back to his seat. "And Hayato,stop teasing Lambo"

"Hai... Sorry, Jyuudaime"

"It's fine. So what do you guys think about my idea?"

"Still think it's childish but I guess I can find amusement in it, kufufu"

"If Jyuudaime says so then I'm on it!"

"Haha~ it really sounds fun! I'm in"

"I don't mind boss"

"EXTREME! I WILL EXTREMELY JOIN TSUNA!"

"You better give Lambo-sama awesome gifts"

"I am not doing something childish, omnivore" take it to the aloof guardian to not agree. Well, Tsuna just have to make him so.

"But Kyoya! Its suppose to be our bonding activity for the holiday! We barely have time to spend together, all of us and I really just want to take this opportunity for us to have fun"

"I don't like crowding Tsunayoshi"

"Kyoya it'll only be us, not even Reborn would take part in this. I'm sure you'll be able to tolerate us"

"Yeah, I agree with Tsuna here, besides according to Fuuta's rankings we're the first ones on the list of crowds you can tolerate. It won't be much of a problem" Takeshi grinned remembering Fuuta's ranking.

"Hn."

"I take that as a yes" Tsuna happily remarked as he fetched two small fish bowls from underneath his table.

"What's in there?" Lambo asked, eyeing the bowls curiously.

"Ah, the ones with the folded white paper have our names on it while the other one with folded yellow ones have specific themes written. Everyday we'll randomly choose a theme and at the same time pick a name from the other fish bowl. If you ended up picking your own name you have to put the paper back and pick another one and if you got someone you've already picked, you also have to put the name back and pick another one. It's to assure that we all get a gift from each other. Sound clear?"

"Yes, Boss"

"So, who wants to pick the first theme?"

"Can I?" Lambo asked. Tsuna simply handed him the bowl with folded yellow papers. Shuffling it with his hands for a few moments, the youngest guardian then picked a random paper "Let's see...ah, it says 'Something Cold' in the paper " He showed the paper to everyone.

"Well, there's our first theme. Now pick a name and remember not to show it until tomorrow"

The guardians picked a name one by one until only one piece of folded white paper was left. Tsuna took the paper and peaked on it " I take it that no one picked their own name?" Tsuna asked, the guardians gave a small Decimo smiled at his guardians "We have until two in the afternoon tomorrow to look for a gift. I want you all here around that time so we can exchange gifts and Kyoya don't even think about sending Kusakabe as a representative"

"Hn. Fine"

"Dismissed"

...something cold...

It's the first day of their kris kringle game, Tsuna who was on a shopping district looking for a gift hadn't notice the bunch of fangirls now stalking him as he happily stroll from one shop to the other. The Vongola Decimo had greatly changed in physical appearance this past decade. Sure, he still look a little feminine compared to his male guardians but that part of him actually just added more points to his plus factor."Ah, so what should I get?" Tsuna thought as he scanned the items. His guards, all scattered in close vicinity to assure his safety.

"Excuse me, sir. Are you looking for something in particular?" A store clerk blushed as she approached the now shopping for a kris kringle gift, Decimo.

"Ah, yes. I'm looking for an item that falls under something cold. You see, my friends and I are having a kris kringle game"

"Oh, well let's see...Uhm, how about an electric fan? or an airconditioner?"

"He already got those stuff. I want something that I can put a personal touch with"

"How about something you can make then?"

"Something I can make? I like that idea, so what do you suggest?" Tsuna asked. The clerk grabbed a dessert magazine from a shelf "I suggest you make your friend a cold dessert. I'm sure you'll be able to find something here that he'll greatly enjoy"

Tsuna scanned the magazine and stopped at a particular page. He smiled warmly at the clerk "This is perfect, thank you"

"You're welcome sir, we're here to help you" The store clerk still blushing managed to utter the words without ten excused himself to pay for the item. He's pretty sure all the ingredients he needed are already provided in the Vongola kitchen all he has to do is to make sure his gift would make it in time.

He never managed to notice the store clerk who had fainted on the spot once he turned around

2pm

"EXTREME! SORRY I AM LATE! I EXTREMELY GOT LOST!"

"We've lived here for a decade and you still get lost?" Hayato asked, his eyes rolling with slight irritation.

"YES TO THE EXTREME!"

"That's enough. Take a seat onii-san so we can begin" Tsuna motioned for his Sun guardian to sit."Okay why don't you start Hayato, I want you to give your gift directly to the person you draw from the list. Then that person would be the next one to hand down his or in Chrome's case her gift"

The Storm stood up and walked towards a particular mist guardian "I had Spanner create a special tumbler that can keep things cold no matter how long, he handed it to Chrome with a small smile. "Here, now there's fresh pineapple juice inside"

-insert a glaring Mukuro here-

"Thank you" The only female guardian bowed in appreciation as she took the gift before standing and facing the Sun guardian. "I had Gianini-san create this special towel for you. I know you like having jogs in the morning this towel will help you cool off and protect you from too much sun rays"

"EXTREMELY THANK YOU CHROME!" The overly energetic sun then walked -more like made a quick dash- towards the Rain guardian.

"THIS IS EXTREMELY FOR YOU YAMAMOTO! IT WAS EXTREMELY SUPPOSED TO BE EXTREME ICE CUBES BUT THEY MELTED TO THE EXTREME!" He then handed a plastic bag that supposedly should have had ice cubes -that had all turned into liquid state- on it.

"Haha!~ Thanks sempai!" The rain didn't mind at all as he took the ice turned into water from the older guardian.

He does not mind but the others did, even Hayato can't help but pity Takeshi with the type of gift he received.

"So I'm next...Uhm, Kyoya I know you have a low alcohol tolerance but having a beer once in a while won't hurt. So I got you one"

"Hn." The skylark nodded, silently thanking the rain guardian. Kyoya then stood up and faced a certain mist guardian. Without any further interruptions and accompanied by a smirk, he handed his gift to Mukuro.

It was a neatly carved pineapple, frozen solid into perfection."Oya, oya did you carve this for me? How thoughtful of you Skylark-kun" Mukuro 'chuckled' as he stared at the trident shaped pineapple."Your face is much too complicated" Was the clouds reply before going back to his seat.

"Kufufu~ For once I'm going to ignore you, Skylark. Tsunayoshi-kun I wanted to give you a cold, lifeless body from a hospital morgue but it's much too heavy and Chrome says snatching dead bodies is a no-no. So I got you this instead"It was an ice-pack, orange in color and with little tuna fish designs. Where he got it no one knows. "Kufufu~ you keep on having bruises so I knew you'd be using it a lot"

"Thanks, Mukuro" Tsuna smiled warmly inwardly sweat dropping after seeing the tuna fish designs. He then faced the youngest guardian "Lambo my gift for you is inside that fridge" Tsuna pointed at the personal fridge inside his office. The youngest guardian rushed towards it, excited about what his Tsuna-nii had for him.

"Grape popsicle! Did you made them yourself? Thanks Tsuna-nii" Lambo exclaimed, happy for what he had gotten. Taking the Popsicle from the fridge he placed them on the table before handing Hayato's gift "Here, Bakadera be thankful the great Lambo-sama is an awesome gift finder"

It was a pack of frozen, ready to fry burger patties. Hayato accepted the gift, at least it's better than what Takeshi received."Thanks"

"So isn't it fun?" Tsuna now held the same bowls from yesterday "So who wants to draw the next theme?"

...something creepy and/or disgusting...

It was day two of their Kris Kringle bonding activity. Ryohei who picked the next theme was grinning as he held on a small box, messily wrapped in a green and red chinese paper. "EXTREME TSUNAYOSHI SAWADA CAN I START TO THE EXTREME?""Sure, go ahead onii-san""OKAY I EXTREMELY GIVE THIS GIFT TO YOU MALE PINEAPPLE HEAD"

Mukuro twitched at the nickname but took the gift anyway while kufufuing. His expression turned grim once he saw what the gift was.

"THOSE ARE MY EXTREME GYM SOCKS THAT I FORGOT TO EXTREMELY SEND TO LAUNDRY CLEANING LAST WEEK! YOU SHOULD EXTREMELY USE THEM! I HAVE AN EXTRA MATCHING PAIR LEFT TO THE EXTREME! LET'S BOX AND WEAR THEM TO THE EXTREME!"

Mukuro inwardly promised himself to give the sun guardian creepy illusions about gym socks later. For now, he'll simply have to do with scaring his very lucky -indeed- receiver."Kufufufu~" The male mist guardian laughed creepily all the while tossing a small box at Lambo who almost fell from his chair trying to catch it. "Lambo-sama asks what's this!""Open to find out, stupid-cow" Hayato his tongue out at Hayato, Lambo opened his gift just to drop it with a thud and to run in a corner, crawl into a ball and speak ominous words against Mukuro who simply stated that such curses will not work on someone who went to hell six times and live (six time) to tell the tale.

The gift had been a whole bundle of grapes -Lambo's favorite fruit, no wonder- overripe ones to the point of decaying and with flies and quite a few number of larvae and worms crawling out. The image had been too much for the fifteen year old.

"Evil pineapple..." Lambo muttered darkly, crying for the lost of his favorite fruit without it having served a greater purpose of filling his stomach "I shall avenge you my precious bundle of happiness"

"Hn. Get over it herbivore and handle your gift. I don't have all day for this"

With one last promise of 'I will surely avenge' Lambo reached unto his hair and pulled out a box and handed it over to Takeshi. "Here, Takeshi-nii"

"Haha, thanks Lambo" Takeshi gave the younger boy a comforting tap on the head before proceeding to open the gift. Inside was a small tumbler with undetermined contents."What is this?" The rain guardian asked, sniffing the gooey substance with undetermined color. He quickly closed the lid when a foul smell reached his nose.

"I don't know what to call it but it's got soy sauce, catsup, onions, paprika, hotdog, beef, shrimps, orange peelings, pizza crust, bread crumbs, a rotten egg, leftover chicken salad, salsa, lemon juice, fish sauce, a ginger, cucumber, oatmeal, taco sauce... I think there's more but I can't remember. I just put a lot of things then I blended it and ta da!" Lambo grinned at his accomplishment.

"Err...I don't have to drink this, right?" Even Takeshi who seemed to have that aura if obliviousness is entirely sure that the blend can cause severe stomachache and possibly even death.

"I suggest not"

"That's great! I will give my present then, Chrome this is for you""Thank you" The female mist guardian smiled, accepting the gift. It was one of those small lids with gooey slime inside and with a variety of fake and severed body parts, what Chrome got was one with a bloodied fake ear."Thank you Rain guardian-san and Cloud man..." Chrome handed Kyoya a tupperware.

"Hn." Everyone assumed it was a thank you, in Kyoya's language. The Tupperware was something Kyoya thinks not as creepy but with his etiquette and seemingly over the edge fetish to order and discipline it was something disgusting. It was full of cockroaches, some of them even headless and the wings chopped off. Kyoya made a mental note to crush the herbivorous insects later as far away from hibird as possible or his pet might think of eating those unhealthy creepy crawlers.

"Omnivore" Kyoya tossed a small vial towards Tsuna who with practiced ability had caught it with ease "This is?"

"A vial full of blood from the herbivores I've beaten to death, yesterday" Kyoya grinned. Laughing nervously, Tsuna was now sure putting the creepy option on the theme list is not a good option. "Errr...thanks Kyoya" Tsuna decided to keep the blood for now then looked at his storm "Hayato..."

"Jyuudaime?"

"Here"

"Thank you Jyuudaime! I will forever treasure this gift and protect this as if my life depends on it!" The man's eyes twinkled with determination. Tsuna sweat dropped, his gift was a rotten tomato, not entirely disgusting as the others gift but hey it's still disgusting. Hayato then handed his gift to Ryohei "Turf top"

""EXTREME THANKS TACO-HEAD!" The sun opened the small plastic container "I EXTREMELY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THIS IS!"

Smirking, Hayato smugly stated "It's everyone's sweat except Jyuudaimes"

How the hell did he get their sweat? Creepy...Tsuna made sure to write 'creepy/disgusting themed gifts' on the NOT TO DO list for his new year's resolution

....Something small...

Third day of their Kris Kringle game and they actually are enjoying it. Their theme for today, something small. The Decimo familgia is currently waiting for Takeshi who had a call from his father back in Namimori.

"Sorry for the wait"

"Can uncle Tsuyoshi come?"

"No, unfortunately"

"Sorry, you can go home for Christmas if you want"

"It's fine Tsuna, I'll stay here with everyone. He promised to be here new years eve anyway"

"That good to hear"

"Have you guys started yet?"

"We're waiting for you. You can do the honor" Tsuna gave his Rain guardian a small nod

"But to make things more interesting, I want everyone to tell the reason why for the gift they've chosen"

"Hn."

"And you're not excempted Kyoya"

"Omnivore"

"Takeshi so who did you get?" Yes, Tsuna just ignored his Cloud guardian

."Ah, I got Hayato" Takeshi handed his gift and waited for the said receiver to see what's inside before speaking again "It's a chain where you can put all your rings. I notice how you struggle to hide them during formal gatherings since they draw too much attention. If you use a chain you can hide them from view but use them easily if you need them"

"...Thanks, I really need this"

"Welcome, Hayato"

"Lambo"

"What did you get the great Lambo-sama?"

"It's a whistle. Everytime we're on a battle zone we may not be able to protect you as much as we want and I know you can fight but if ever your in some sticky situation just blow the whistle as loud as you can and I will rush by your side"

"Thank you, Hayato-nii" So Hayato-nii does have concern for him.

"Turf-top I am giving you a picture locket of Kyoko-nee and Hana-nee, I guess even you will understand why"

"Yes, Thank you Lambo"The sun accepted without questions and minus the loud voice. The others knew why, the Sun doesn't have to tell them but they know why.

However the lack of loud and EXTREME noise was cut short "KYOYA THIS IS MY EXTREME GIFT FOR YOU! IT'S AN EXTREMELY TINY CHRISTMAS HAT AND MUFFLER FOR HIBIRD SINCE KYOKO SAID YOU'LL APPRECIATE IT BETTER IF THE GIFT IS FOR HIBIRD!"

"Hn" Well it was true

"You're a simple girl and yet you have class so it fits you perfectly" Kyoya handed Chrome a small box, inside was a white gold bracelet with a simple detailing and yet it screams elegant."Thank you Cloud man" Chrome smiled as Kyoya, who had been gentleman enough placed the bracelet on his wrist. Chrome then proceeded to do the same to Tsuna. Her gift was a wristwatch "Boss, sometimes you're too busy that you end up skiiping your own meals so I had Spanner-san create this watch to remind you. I want to see you always healthy, boss"

"Thanks Chrome" Tsuna smiled, staring at the watch wifh appreciation."Mukuro, this is a special kind of contact lense I contracted Verde to make. You might not have told anyone but I felt how irritated you are everytime other people would give you weird glances. This is created to make your red eye look blue but if you need to use it, let's just say that this contact makes wonders"

"Kufufu~ thanks Tsunayoshi"Mukuro then handed his gift to Takeshi "It's a dog tag, It was Ken who suggested it and it has your name engraved"

"Haha! Thanks Mukuro"

"Okay now Chrome would you like to do the honor for our next theme?"

"I don't mind, boss" Chrome picked a new theme "something scented but can't be eaten"

"So whose going to draw first?"

...something scented but can't be eaten...

"Kyoya is their a problem?"

"I need to take Hibird on a veterinarian"

"That so? How is he? We should start this then so we'll be done early"

"He's a little sick. I'll start" Kyoya handed Hayato a set of scented candles "Place it in your bathroom to take the smell of ciggarette of, those smoke is unhealthy"

"Tsch. Thanks" Hayato took the candles then handed Mukuro a box "It's car freshener, don't worry its not pineaaple scented, for some reason they run out of stock"

"Kufufu~ Frankly I don't know if I should have felt offended or not" Mukuro laughed creepily before throwing a box at Ryohei "Deodorant. Athletes need them, need I say more?"

"THANK YOU MALE PINEAPPLE!" Ryohei pumped his fist "FEMALE PINEAPPLE! HANA PICKED THIS SPECIALLY FOR YOU! SHE SAID IT MATCHES YOUR PERSONALITY! I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND HOW!"It was a bottle of perfum."Thank you"

Chrome smiled as she took the gift "Rain guardian-san, uhm it's sunblock with rose fragrance. Since you're always exposed everytime you play baseball I think you'll need it"

"You're right, Thanks Chrome" Takeshi took the gift then gave Lambo his "It's mosquito reppelant, it smells like grapes but it's effective"

"Thanks Takeshi-nii, I'll use it during our school camping trip next month. This will surely help a lot"

"Welcome, Lambo" The younger boy then handed his Tsuna-nii his present "It's strawberry scented shower gel. You said you love the smell of strawberries"

"I very much do, Thanks Lambo" Tsuna ruffled the younger boy's hair then handed Kyoya's gift "I know the smell of blood is a little hard to clean away, this kind of soap, Reborn recommended and approved will do the trick"

"I see" Kyoya took the gift. Well if Reborn himself approved of the product, then there's a great chance it'll work properly. Besides the blood smell is getting much more difficult to handle.

"Last two themes" Takeshi peaked at the fish bowl "Hey, can I choose the next one?"

"No one really minded, so sure""Haha! Okay the next one will be something that someone can wear "

"Oh, seems like we all need a little shopping! Kufufu!~"

"Lambo-sama will pick a great present!"

" So do I"

"And to do that, pick a name?" Tsuna held the fishbowl

....Something they can wear...

Lambo waited 'patiently' for the others arrival, he really wanted to start their Kris Kringle, now. Frankly, at first he thought that this kind of Christmas activity will bore him out but he stand corrected. It was actually fun and Tsuna-nii was right, this hadc been the perfect bonding activity for enough, the others arrived one by one and Lambo saw the happiness and excitement each of them held."You're hear earlier than us" It was a statement and not a question"I know how you feel Lambo, I'm excited too" Takeshi gave the younger boy a pat.

"Lambo you can start then"

"Really? Okay then pineapple-man this is a pair of leather gloves, it's time you change your old ones. They're worn out"

"Thanks I guess, small bovine. Kufufufu!~" Mukuro then handed Chrome a big whit box with a red ribbon.

"This is..." The only female guardian was left speechless as she took the present out of the box. It was a knee-high indigo colored dress with a halter strap, the edge was ruffled and with a slightly darker shade."Haru told me how much you love the dress. She happened to pass by me while looking for a gift""Thank you, Mukuro-sama" Chrome hugged the dress.

"Storm guardian-san" Chrome handed paper bag "It's a red scarf that represents your storm flame"

"Thanks" Hayato took the gift with appreciation "Hibari, catch"Kyoya glared but caught the gift, effortlessly. Hayato smirked "It's a bonnet. You like patrolling the area during ungodly hours of the night. Your head at least needs something warm"

"I guess I can use it" Kyoya took the gift then handed Takeshi's "I had Kusakabe track how your old Namimori baseball uniform looksand had one made exactly like it, except this one fits current your size"

"Thanks Kyoya, I'll be sure to wear this when playing""Tsuna, I got you a sweater since this time of the year, it gets much colder and you'll really need it" Takeshi told the reason behind the gift after Tsuna opened it.

"I will be sure to wear it, This is great Takeshi. Thank you" Tsuna placed the gift back from its paper bag then handed his gift "Onii-san"

"EXTREME THANKS SAWADA!"

It was anew pair of boxing gloves.

"I SHALL WERE THIS TO THE EXTREME"

"I'm sure you will, onii-san"

"LAMBO THIS IS MY EXTREME GIFT FOR YOU! RUN LIKE THE EXTREME MAN YOU ARE!" It was a pair of red and white running shoes. Lambo gave his gratitude, the shoes was just his size.

"I can't imagine that we're in our final two themes but we had fun" Lambo stated as he tossed the present he was holding up in the air then soon after catching it.

"We really did have a great time,no matter how simple or extravagant or disgusting the gift is" Hayato nodded in agreement

"We should make this a Vongola tradition" Chrome suggested "We can right, boss?""Great idea Chrome, I'll get the necessary papers ready" Tsuna nodded in approval "I'll take action as soon as the Holiday rush is over"

"So are we going to pick the next theme or what?" Lambo asked impatiently.

So this is part 1~ I'll be uploading the second part tomorrow! Happy Holidays!

And I hope I at least managed to write something that's under your second wish list.
