A stupid DPxDC prompt thing but this time it was requested! (#6)
Oh, @daemonlogical. What you suggested definitely had some juice to it. But alas! I do not know that you realize what you asked of me! But here it is! A prompt thing! With Calendar Man and the Danny Phantom Christmas Truce! Tis under the cut because it got surprisingly long and also gets a bit... Dark...
T'was the night before Christmas and in Arkham Asylum,
Julian Day was fussing over an item-
Of "great importance!" is what he would say,
To fulfill his great mission! He had to obey!
For those not in the know, Julian has a compulsion.
To criminally praise each special day, or suffer mental abruption.
To the citizens of Gotham he is known as "Calendar Man."
They think him a joke, but they misunderstand.
He's in Arkham for a reason- few still remember the crimes-
Cults and acts of terror! Involvement with which he would deny.
And as for today... Why, it is Christmas Eve!
He had concocted a plan intended to make everyone grieve.
For ghosts had been appearing all over town!
They made tensions rise! Pandemonium was surely inbound.
All that it needed was someone to pull the trigger.
He had accepted this role with much glee and with vigor.
For Julian had heard some days before,
That the ghosts too celebrated Christmas! A temporary ceasefire to their ongoing wars.
And he heard that on this day of the holiday truce,
The Box Ghost would be hosting! Now this! He could abuse.
So he packed some boxes, wrapped in ribbons with care,
And once taken from Arkham, fitted with anti-ghost weapons meant to kill and impair!
To be left outside, abandoned along city streets,
And when the Box Ghost passes by? What an irresistible treat!
He would take them all back to his festively decorated lair,
And as the truce party would start, they would all be unaware-
That all the ghosts present were in some great danger!
And when the bombs would go off-! Most would be wounded or killed... But then the remainder...
Would not know who to blame, so all would accuse!
That the truce was a mistake- An excuse for the inevitable coup!
The truce would be over! The ghosts all would then slaughter-
One another... But soon... A discovery! Their plans, they would alter.
For the true perpetrator of these deaths... It was clearly the humans!
So they'd all invade Earth... And leave it in ruins.
Julian thought it wonderful- A Christmas Day massacre!
And he had the pleasure to be the one to make it occur.
So with this one last package, all ready to go...
The plan will begin! Will it succeed? That, I do not know...
