Look at a demon in a white dress. Laughs evil and is looking forward to the feast. Her power is weaker than usual. And she too, not in the hell. It is Christmas time and the red demon is
happy and is also flappy. Cuddly dressed against the cold, she goes around. And she hums a happy sound. She has evil things in her head. But for now she goes to bed. Christmas is the
Celebration of Love. But she never has enough. Its Christmas Time. And her powers glow and shine.
Christmas is one day closer. Now its spirit is all around everyone and even the naughtiest demons feel something going on inside them Jessica decided to temporarily move and spend some weeks
in the world of the humans in a wooden house in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by snow. She put all herself in decorating everything and setting up Christmas stuff. She realized, though,
that the place was far too cold for her tastes. She was a fire being and all around her was just snow. Her body temperature had never been so low. So she decided to bring the magic fireplace
all the way from hell to the new holiday house, and placed it near the door so that it would block the cold coming inside. She was satisfied, the temperature now was stable and more to her
tastes. She sat onto the fireplace for good measure, so that she would heat up faster. But that was a big mistake, as she forgot about the "magic" part of the fireplace. She first was forced
into a nice model position, then her clothes were magically burned away and quickly she turned to a nice fireplace decoration. She just had time to open her mouth to scream but even that
noise was quickly repressed by the transformation. "Oh no" Jessica thought "I will miss Christmas!" but at least she has a good position from where to see Santa coming to bring presents! Do
not worry. The spell will not last long!
Time runs fast, Jessica can't wait for Christmas any longer and has invited Ranma at her new temporary place to help pass the time. The two had lots of fun together. Maybe a bit too much,
because at a certain point, and they don't remember why, both of them were naked and a bit drunk. Ranma didn't find her glasses anymore and turned her head around a couple of times to search
them, but the alcohol had the best on her and she lost her balance falling on the floor. From that position, though, she noticed her glasses and extended a hand to take them. But Jessica
instead thought it would be nice to have a new footrest while she was waiting for Santa to take her the presents she asked. So she laid her soft beautiful feet on Ranma's naked back, who
quickly turned to stone, still trying to reach her glasses. Jessica fell asleep on the couch with her feet still on Ranma's back. Well, hopefully the poor human will return normal by the time
the presents are brought.
It is winter. Outside is cold and you want to stay in the house all day long. Sit by the cuddly log fire and eat biscuits and drink cocoa. The evil demoness Jessica is expecting a visit. Ping
wants to come today and they both want to find the Christmas tree in the forest. It rings! Jessica opens the door and the sophisticated robot Ping is at the door. Before Ping enters the
house, she uses her eyes to scan Jessica and the room and check for any dangers. Ping: "Negative, no danger in sight, hello Jessica!" She enters the house and Jessica quickly puts on her
sweet warm winter boots, hiding her bare feet. Jessica hates cold though she loves winter. As a fire demon, it is not easy for Jessica and her magic is weakened in a cold environment. The two
now leave the house and walk a few meters. It is snowing and the snow has already covered the landscape. Jessica trudges in the snow and Ping follows her. Jessica does not exactly look where
she is jumping and suddenly finds herself on the pond in front of the house. Ping goes to the pond and Jessica listen with her ears. She looks at the floor and notices how the ice is slowly
cracking and then looks at Ping. "Do not move ... stay .. just where you are ... Ping." Suddenly, however, the ice breaks and both of them fall into the pond and dive into the ice-cold water.
Jessica's magic connects to the water and it becomes magical. The water magically turns the two into ice. The trip to the forest was probably over quickly but I'm sure that the two will find
a way out!
The Christmas party in the gallery is over. It was late at night and Jessica and Ping were slightly drunk and did not know exactly what they would do. Go home or have fun? The demon and the
robot left the main building of the gallery and walked around the gallery. They saw all the beautiful statues wrapped in beautiful moonlight. No. The entire gallery was shrouded in that light
and it looked very magical. The two then passed by the dragon guarding all the gold treasures of the gallery. He seemed to sleep and was not awake and Jessica looks evil and looked at Ping.
"Do you remember the things we experienced with the dragons?" "Yes it was nice~ " Jessica was happy and hugged Ping and began to purr. The purring was so loud that the dragon opened his eyes
and woke up. He leaned up and saw the two hugging each other and Jessica noticed the dragon. "Ping! Quick away here." But before Jessica and Ping could run away, the dragon was already
breathing its magical mist to the two and solidifying to gold. Do not worry. The magic lasts, or Arc will liberate the two? Who knows.
Jessica and Ping arrived at the place. The place was very nicely decorated and nothing stood in the way for a great evening and a great fireworks and a good start to the new year. The two of
them carried the fireworks box together and set it up on the intended location. Jessica smiled at Ping and she went to the table and poured champagne into two glasses and then went to the
sweet android. The demoness gave the robot a glass and the two of them looked into the distance and saw some rockets flying. "Ping. That was a nice year, right?" "Correct! It was nice and
very funny~" The demon giggled and looked at the clock. One more minute until midnight and the new year starts. Jessica started forming a small fireball in her hand. She lets the fireball
slowly float to the fireworks box. "I hope the new year will be great too, I'm really looking forward to seeing what things we'll experience." Ping just nodded and finished her glass, then
looks at Jessica. "Yes, I am very looking forward to it." The fireball slowly lit the fireworks box and the clock points to midnight. It's time. The new year has dawned and the box started
and a few rockets are fired. It was really beautiful and Jessica just say: "Happy New Year Ping!" And she smiled evil. The magical fireworks box continued to fire missiles. Jessica leaned her
hands behind her head and Ping took a relaxed position. Suddenly, however, the box did not launch a rocket but a magical gray powder and fogged the area in gray smoke. Ping was confused and
screamed. "What? What is this and why am I... " A few seconds pass and the area was still covered in fog. Jessica and Ping could not be heard and seconds later the fog slowly disappeared in
the area. Jessica the naughty demon and Ping the cute robot are petrified to stone. Petrified in the pose the two had taken when they watched the fireworks, but the expression was scared. The
two saw that something was wrong but they could not react anymore and are frozen naked to stone. The rocket box shot out a few rockets and then it became quiet. Minutes and hours passed and
the two were still two beautiful statues. The magic will subside soon, but it was really everything planned? What a great start to the new year hihi.
Ringing bells all around. It's Christmas time. Good people get presents. Bad and naughty people, according to a popular northern-european tradition, instead... Get chosen by a strange furry
and malevolent creature called the Krampus.
Everybody wants to be good at Christmas, because nobody wants to be dragged by the Krampus. But sometimes someone just laughs in the face of the old legends and thinks that running around
naked for the fun of it, is just as acceptable as any other behavior. But the Krampus waits and watches, and throws his curse on the naughty girls as well. The more naughty, the better.
In fact, this one was quite naughty, and is now the symbol that proves that old legends should be taken seriously. Look at her peaceful expression, he never saw it coming. But now, she feels
her body completely unmoving, hard. As she sees the face of the Krampus admiring her she suddenly has a realization, but it's too late for her. The Krampus examines his work satisfied, before
going away to get his next victim. The list is long and Christmas comes only once in a year.
And so, this is the last Christmas she will see. As a free person, at least. It's yet to be known if the Krampus will come back to pick her up and add her to his collection, or if the people
of the village will find her first, and display her in some shrine to fend off the Krampus' anger.
Sure, that was it. She had to try. Ping, Ranma and Arc were all invited to hell. As soon as they showed up, everyone knew that there was something wrong. Ranma took the first words as per her
usual "Hey... Arc, Ping, Jessica? Where are your costumes? Wasn't that supposed to be a cosplay party?" Ark tilted his head "Cosplay? I was promised German beer!" Ping looked at both
"Negative. The invitation said there would be an unsolvable problem too difficult even for a modern supercomputer." Jessica started grinning and laughing like mad. "You poor humans could
believe anything at all!" Ping was a bit disappointed and tried to protest that she wasn't a human, but then again she was there and being compared to human, which was something she was
trying to achieve, left her positively feeling. But it wasn't time to think about broken feelings or disappointment. Jessica was now menaciously chanting some unknown and unheard words. Then
she ordered, in a stentorian voice "Ping, Ranma! I order you to throw yourselves on the table and reach each other in the middle!" The two both obeyed, without blinking an eye. Even if their
conscious minds/motherboards was acting against this, they still threw each other on the table and started walking against each other. Arc on the contrary was unmoving, he tried to say
something but nothing would allow him to talk. Without turning around, Jessica ordered "Arc! At-tention!" And Arcana, like a soldier, stood to attention, beating his hand on his massive
chest. As soon as the two on the table were close to each other Jessica yelled again "NOW! STONE!" and all three in the blink of an eye became stone statues. Ranma could only open her mouth
briefly before the magic got her, nothing else suggested the fear in her mind. Ping was almost trying to reach Ranma when the transformation happened, and she was left as stone with her hand
mid-air. Jessica was pleased of the results of the test. Next step? Maybe a city block?
New Year's Eve is coming! The new year will come in just a few hours. Many rockets will fly and a lot of sparkling wine will be drunk. Jessica and Ping are getting ready. The two friends want
to celebrate the new year intensively and are already making their way to their place they have already set up to see the great rockets. Jessica has already had some glasses of champagne and
Ping has already had too much of the cake. Jessica had baked the cake with her firepower and secretly stirred a bottle of brandy into the dough. The two are already slightly drunk and are
very happy. "Motion sensors disturbed, fireworks box can not be safely lifted." Ping stares at Jessica. "Come on sweet Android! This is a special firework that I have mixed with my magic.
You'll be amazed what effects come!" Ping nodded and the two of them now carry the big box to the square. A fireworks box with magical effects by Jessica? That sounds great? Well ... she is
an evil demon and you can never guess what "effects" she created? In a few hours we will know.
"Christmas stress!!!!" "The days before Christmas are often stressful. You have to buy gifts for your family and pack everything nicely. Even the sweet evil demon Jessica is in Christmas
stress and deserves a little break. Best a little break ... as a statue?" "Now she has a few days rest before the stress continues."
The first Snow... and a Beholder (Story Luca) ... Open
Christmas time! Everyone is cheerful, joyful, wants to run, laugh and play in the snow. Four friends are playing in the Gallery's garden celebrating the first snow of the year and the start
of the advent season. What could go better than this? Jessica, Ping, Nuvy and Ranma were extatic, throwing snow balls at each other, hiding behind trees rocks and the statues in the garden.
Everyone was happy and wearing nice Christmas clothing, each one with their Santa hat on the head. All in all it was a cute image. They spent half their day cheerfully yelling and laughing
around, and then suddenly it started snowing again. Jessica gatehred everyone "Hey all! Come here! It's snowing! Let's catch the snowflakes with our tongue!" All gathered in a row and opened
their mouths to lick the snow from the sky. It was at that point that the Beholder awoke from his slumber, because they inadvertently ventured too far in the garden. He came ot of his cave.
Only Ranma saw it coming and tried to protect herself, but it was no use, all four were made to stone in an instant. Their clothes disintegrated, but at least the Santa hat was left
untouched. Even the Beholder was hit by the Christmas spirit, it seems. So, good holidays to our four unfortunate Christmas statues. May you return normal before it's time to open the
presents. Or you will be the presents for the Gallery!
We're back in ancient Egypt, the land where people share their life with magical beings and magic itself. Public baths were the place where the normal people would usually groom and take care
of themselves. That meant that a lot of movement was expected in such places.Thus, it was strange that nobody noticed that sculpture before she did.
She examined it closely. The statue depicted four girls, the two on the side looking upwards, like if they were watching towards the Gods, one was lying on top of another, who was throwing
her legs up. Surely, an odd position, she thought, but it resembled something. It was like... Like a throne, yes. The throne of a Goddess.
"I've always wanted to be a Goddess. I wonder how they feel, being all mighty and worshipped on their big, marvelous thrones." She climbed on the base and sat down on the marble girl,
positioning herself comfortably, with the help of the two other girls on the side. For a stone throne, it was quite comfortable, she thought. But there was something off in this. She didn't
know it, but those four girls angered Bastet, the Cat Goddess, who made them a throne and threw the resulting work somewhere far from her sight.
Some of the magic was still dormant in the four girls. It started spreading on the poor redhead, who didn't even realize something was happening to her body. Slowly her feet became stone, and
the transformation spread up to her leg and thighs. Sure, she felt strangely cold and a bit stiff, but she didn't even look down to see where this sensation was coming from.
Even if she could look, it was too late for her. Her destiny was written in stone now: she would be the symbol of a Goddess, sitting on a throne made of humans. She started to panic when she
felt she couldn't move her body anymore. But she didn't cry or yell. Not even when she started seeing her hair become grey and hard like stone.
The transformation was complete. Five girls were now made of stone, looking outside their bodies for as long as eternity will last. Who will find this graceful composition? Will Bastet
eventually look for what she made and claim it as hers, seeing that she caught an innocent? These are all questions that we can't answer.
