บท 27: THE THANKSGIVING SPECIAL!!

(Disclaimer: I'm basing this special on last year's thanksgiving I had with my best friend's whole family,I just modified it to fit into the story as a whole,so please enjoy the chaos I've brewed)

It was a quiet November evening, as the neighbors were walking to their families to enjoy the festivities that represents November all was peaceful throughout the neighborhood.

*bang* *clatter*

…I stand corrected, let's see who is causing this chaos shall we?

"FUCK I BURNED THE LAMB!!"

In the kitchen of the ichinose household the household vampire himeko toga was watching the lamb cooking in the oven but didn't realize it was burning as yoriichi was running around like a mad man shouting orders at the others.

"Where's the lamb sauce?!!"

As yoriichi was trying to save the lamb he noticed that the lamb sauce he was working on was spilled during the process of saving the lamb stuffing from being ruined.

"I'm sorry yoriichi!! I was having trouble controlling my need for blood again and got distracted!!" Toga said to the still working yoriichi who saw her tearing up before sighing.

'How could I have forgotten about toga's need for blood ?!' Yoriichi said to himself as he reaches out and pats toga's head in an attempt to comfort her.

"It's alright himeko, I've always got full drill sargeant when it came to the holidays" I say to her as I feel the back of my neck tingle and bend down barely dodging a clawed hand of my aunt ophis as Tiamat just giggles at the sight.

"You're too loud Baka yoriichi…your louder than baka red when he threw me out." Said a dragon god who was the literal embodiment of fbi bait, otherwise known as my aunt ophis.

"Alright that's enough people." Tiamat said to everyone present as I hear a knock at the door.

I walk over to the front door and see Karla and her grandfather waiting for me

"Hey yoriichi!" Karla says as she jumps in for a hug, catching both raioh and myself off guard, I could practically hear Tiamat giggling as everyone else is watching the exchange.

As I felt embarrassed by the whole ordeal raioh coughs catching Karla's attention, and she jumps off of me and stands besides her grandfather.

"Well yoriichi, do you think you and your family would like to joining grandfather and myself at our family compound's thanksgiving party?" Karla asks as I practically hear ophis say she didn't want to go based one her walking up the stairs.

"Well that's nice of you Karla, but I got dinner under control."

Your stuffing is on fire"(raioh)

"SHIT!!" I yell out as true to what raioh said my stuffing has indeed caught fire. Grabbing the extinguisher I furiously spray down the stuffing until all that was left was a smoldering pile of charcoal.

Dejected at my remains of what was supposed to be a happy dinner celebrating family dinner turned burnt remains, I as well as the others accept their offer and we walk to their compound.

As we all were walking, with the exception of ophis who decided to stay home and sleep, were met with the sight of raian throwing punches with a man with messy brown hair and a red jacket with a skinny looking business man cheering him on while half drunk.

"You got the ohma! Show him what for!!" The man yelled as he downed another glass of amber liquid.

"I hear you loud and clear kazuo yamashita!! Now let me focus!!" The brown haired man said as he was about to be pushed out of a ring.

"Uhh…raioh who are those two?" I ask the Kure patriarch who was chuckling at the sight of the businessman, but before he could say anything Karla chimed in.

"Oh that's my cousin's new boyfriend and his caretaker, I told you about them when I went to the annihilation tournament I went to dueing golden week?" She explained as I put the pieces together.

"If I remember correctly, you said the young guy is ohma tokita and his caretaker is kazuo yamashita or the yamashita corporation." I recall as ohma manages to push raian out of the ring, inciting cheers from everyone.

"And the still reigning champion of the Kure family sumo tournament is ohma!! Tokita!!!" Someone said over the loudspeakers inciting cheers all around us.

But before we could take our seats ohma, somehow driven by fate to meet strong people locked eyes with me.

"Hey you…you're strong." Was all ohma said before flickering out of my view and reappearing in front of me with a fist just an inch away from my face.

I manage to catch his punch inviting whistles from a bunch of the women and a bunch of cheers from the men.

But before I could even piece together what was happening the loudspeakers rang as the man from before announces that the thanksgiving dinner was ready.

And thus began the weirdest thanksgiving the yoriichi household has ever had.

————————————————————

For those wondering,this actually happens to my folks irl, my dad woke up suuuper late and frenzied everyone to work on the thanksgiving dinner, only to have it all burn to charcoal.

Luckily my best friend and his grandpa invited us to their family gathering, it was then I found out they have a tradition where the host a wrestling tournament for the younger people in the family to crown a champion of the thanksgiving outdoor cage match.

My dad decided to not go since he didn't like social gatherings and we enjoyed all the festivities and the drunk fights of the middle aged men of the whole group.

I wish I was kidding but u wanted to tell you all that story in the form of this special, so what crazy traditions in your family(if any) do you do for thanksgiving?

But besides all that have a happy thanksgiving tomorrow and have a happy holidays.

Don't be a turkey!
