My contribution to the advent calendar and also my first FF here. For a long time I didn’t know what to write ... but I’ve made it after all. So have fun with:

The beginning of the A.M. Christmas games

The wind raced across the land, giving off a terrible howl. The flakes danced wildly and covered the field. Due to the night and the storm, a little house is barely recognizable. It is wrapped entirely in white and can hardly be distinguished from its surroundings. Only the lights that shone through the window shining from the ice bear witness to residents.
If you took a closer look, you discovered a funny collection of the strangest figures. Men, women, children ... but also green aliens, flying cat creatures and strange raccoons could be seen.

"Njam, is that delicious!" purred the cat creature and got to safety at a dizzy height. "You come down!" growled the AnimeManga mascot and folded his arms. That was his Christmas specialty biscuit and the worst, it was THE LAST !! But in vain, no matter how much it whimpered and begged, it was plastered zack zag.
Pouting, it reached for the salad and nibbled listlessly on it.

Everyone else probably had fun at the A.M. Christmas party today. Even Vegeta, who was always lousy, laughed happily. Or was it because Son Goku had just challenged him? The children also suggested some Christmas disciplines. Santa Claus sack races, juggling Christmas balls, cookie contests and snowball fights. Son Goku and numerous other guests were immediately enthusiastic.

Vegeta was about to decline when you heard a loud, “Gockgoook, Gockgook!” Luffy didn't want to let this fun be taken away from her and there was simply no room for spoilsport today. Vegeta, who felt hurt in his honor, finally gave in.

So now the games could begin. To make it more exciting, each team had to have 3 players who were drawn by chance. Even if one or the other was dissatisfied with the situation, an exchange was excluded and was punished with elimination. Much was at stake, for those who lost were punished. They had to clean up the whole mess alone after the party. The winners, on the other hand, received a top-class 10 star menu from Smutje Sanji. Well, if that wasn't an incentive.

Note: Due to concerns of some participants, the use of magical, extraterrestrial or other supernatural powers is prohibited! And of course no use of force against the opposing team. Caused deaths lead to immediate disqualification!
Points are awarded as follows: 1st place = 3 points, 2nd place = 2 points, 3rd place = 1 point.

The teams look like this:
Team Naruto: Naruto, Gaara, Rock Lee
Team Dragonball: Vegeta, Piccolo, Krillin
Team SailorMoon: Makoto, Mamoru, ChibiusaTeam Beyblade: Max, Kenny, Kai
Team Pokemon: Ash, May, James
Team Yu-Gi-Oh: Bakura, Joey, Pegasus
Team One Piece: Zorro, Chopper, Brook

... ..
Game 1: juggle Christmas balls
Task: To juggle the Christmas ball with the spoon the given way.

Rock Lee, Piccolo, Chibiusa, Kai, Ash, Bakura and Chopper each started for their team armed with ball and spoon.
* bang * As soon as the starting signal sounds, it starts.
Right at the beginning, however, Chibiusa accidentally steps on Piccolo's coat, which both of them stumble.
Rock Lee, firmly focused on his career, just doesn't notice that his ball has been missing from the beginning and is happy that he is the first to finish.
Ash, Bakura and Kai run a head to head run. When Bakura notices that he is slowly losing his strength, his dark side takes over and fouls his two opponents. Carelessly and distracted by malicious laughter, however, he overlooks a dent in the floor that makes him stumble.

The spectators, stunned by the scenario that appeared, divided their bets. Chopper, pounding from one hoof to the other, crossed the goal calmly.
"So now you are safe!" said the little reindeer to the ball and was happy. "Man Chopper, it's just a Christmas ball and not an egg!" called Usopp. "Whaaaas!?!"

Piccolo and Chibiusa, who have finally hacked each other out, next passed the three arguing boys one after the other and then the goal. This earned Team Dragonball two and Team SailorMoon one point.

... ..
Game 2: Saint Nicholas sack race
Task: Reach the goal in a sack hopping.

The participants for the second game were: Naruto, Krillin, Mamoru, Max, James, Joey and Zorro.
Zorro, who was just awakened roughly, yawned tiredly and wiped his eyes.
And * bang *. Everyone rushed forward, nobody wanted to lose ... except Zorro, who apparently didn't really know what to do. “Why are they hopping around with sleeping bags?” The pirate hunter wanted to know, but his crew just yelled “RUN DAMN!”
It was visibly difficult for Krillin, whose sack went up to his upper arms, and was overtaken by the others.
However, Joey didn't get far either and fell on his nose.
Naruto, apparently he did something like that more often, left his opponents far behind.
... And to everyone's surprise, he was also the first to cross the finish line.
To the chagrin of his masters and Sakura, who bet against him and now let out their frustration on him.

Now the battle for 2nd and 3rd place was raging. Max, who was in the lead, was now being harassed by James. Jessie and Meowth, who cheered their team on from the side, threw him a device to cheat. Of course, like everything, they backfired and James was put into orbit.

Max, who was able to hold his position, secured 2nd place. With a chin length of Joey, Mamoru also stumbled across the finish line.... ..
Game 3: Cookie Contest
Task: To eat as many cookies as possible in one minute

Gaara, Vegeta, Makoto, Kenny, Maike, Pegasus and Brook are invited to the table. Son Goku and Luffy sat next to them inconspicuously. Seven or nine ... it doesn't matter, doesn't it? However, they were passed over when the cookies were allocated and the place was expelled.

The starting shot sounded again with a * bang *. Vegeta lived up to his breed and Son Goku could only watch it pouting.
Brook looked into the audience after the first bite. "Could I have another cup of tea? Then the cookies slide better! .... Johoho ... I don't have an esophagus ... johoho."

Maike, Makoto and Pegasus, on the other hand, were in a mess. What kind of calories were all of that when they could not be seen in any series. And what does that look like, Pegasus, the rich, handsome man in sports pants and a sweaty shirt on a step board? However, they didn't want to attract all the hatred of their group and so they nibbled to themselves ... of course, counting every calorie.

Gaara, Kenny and Brook held up well, but they had no chance against Vegeta.
Suddenly the skeleton man was shaken with a terrible cough. "Cough, cough ... something got down the wrong throat. ... And I don't even have a throat, johoho."
... Nobody found it really funny, however, which saddened Brook.

So it was decided between the two remaining. Kenny takes second and Gaara third.

... ..
Game 4: assemble Santa Claus (team game)
Task: Buggy, disguised as Santa Claus, has to be put together again in the shortest possible time (the correct composition is also important).

As the first team Naruto:
Gaara mainly did the work there because Naruto had to ask where it belonged for each part and Lee gave him extravagant speeches on it.

Time: 15 minutes and 30 seconds

Team Dragonball:
Ok, fast was something else too, but since they hardly spoke to each other, they were a lot faster than the first team.

Time: 10 minutes and 50 seconds

Team SailorMoon:
Chibiusa has fun building which also infects the other two. So they make rapid progress.

Time: 7 minutes and 14 seconds

Only Buggy was slowly getting tired of it. What did they think he was? A fun, witty kid clown, or what? Only the threat that he would have to tidy up if he didn't take part made him remain silent and endure it.

Team Beyblade:
They built themselves up somewhere, but where. They tried to and fro, but this cost them a lot of time.

Time: 15 minutes and 38 seconds

Team Pokemon:
You frantically try to do your best as quickly as possible. Whereby Maike gave the orders and the guys then had to build.However, this was quite successful and so they secured first place for the time being

5 minutes and 38 seconds.

Team Yu-Gi-Oh:
They searched and searched, but some parts just couldn't be found.
Well ... Joey wouldn't have made fun of Buggy's nose.

Time: The program was canceled after 30 minutes

Team One Piece:
Despite a few teething problems, because Zorro wanted to break him down for his slogans instead of building them up, they didn't look bad at all. And through the praise that Chopper addressed to Buggy, the whole thing finally went literally, almost as if by itself.
Unfortunately, their efforts weren't quite enough.

Time: 8 minutes and 23 seconds

Bottom line: The members of Team Pokemon were able to score their first points. Second place went to Team SailorMoon and the third went to Team One Piece.

Game 5: Who builds the most beautiful snow figure (team game)
Task: Simply build a pretty snow figure in an hour. Referees who could not form their own team due to various reasons (which we cannot name at this point) then evaluated.

Team Beyblade:
The team didn't really agree on building a dragon, a phoenix or a conventional snowman. In the end it was decided to create a mixture of the proposals.
What should you say about it ... it didn't look really good and the wings don't really want to hold either, but you were glad you did something at all.

Team Yu-Gi-Oh:
There were similar problems to report. Bakura just wanted it to be finished, Joey wanted something really cool and elaborate and Pegasus wanted a pompous lock. However, the latter had to be postponed to another time due to lack of time.
