Welcome to S.P.D.

Normal POV

Commander Cruger walked into the infirmary. He looked around and saw all his injured comrades. Dr. Felix said they would be stuck in bed for a few weeks. He walked over to Tracy's bed and noticed that she was starting to come around. Tracy's slowly opened her eyes and tried to sit up in the bed. Then she felt someone lay her back down in the bed.

"Tracy, take it easy," Dr. Felix says in a calm tone.

"What about Quick Draw and Syd?" She asks.

"They are going to be fine, but they suffered serious injuries. They'll need to stay here for a few weeks. You've suffered those some injuries as well. You will be staying here just as long as the others will." Dr. Felix explains.

"Dang, can I at least see them?" She asks.

"Maybe a little later on cadet, but right now you need to take it easy," Cruger says.

Then Doctor Felix slowly sat her up in the bed. Then he removed the sling from her right arm and placed his hands on her shoulder.

"Ok, Doc what are you going to do?" Tracy asks.

"I'm going to pop your shoulder back into place." He answers.

"Do you really have to do to that doctor? I mean it's fine exactly where it is now." She says.

"Nice try, I'll pop it back in, on three," Dr. Felix tells her.

A few seconds later Dr. Felix popped her shoulder back into place. Then he put the sling back on her arm.

"Yup, I was right." She says.

"Right about what," Dr. Felix asks.

"That popping my shoulder back in would hurt more than when I dislocated it in the first place." she answers.

"At least you haven't lost your sense of humor," Dr. Felix says.

Tracy cracks a small smile. Then she looks to her left and sees Pikachu lying in the bed next to her. He has his tail wrapped up with a bandage. One of his cheeks has a bandage over it as well. Tracy tried her best to hold back her tears as the smile disappeared from her face. She doesn't even want to see the sad shape Syd was in, so she doesn't even bother looking to her right. She just lays back down in bed and stares back up at the ceiling.

A few hours later everyone is awake and they are all filled with the holiday spirit. Everyone except for Tracy. She was sitting up in the bed feeling lower than a bug under a brick. Dr. Felix decided it would be a good idea for her to have a visitor. He called Michael to tell him that Tracy was okay and he should come to visit her to help lift her spirits. Ten minutes later Michael comes into the room and walked over to Tracy's bed with his guitar on his back.

"Hey, angel what's with the long face? It is Christmas after all." He says.

"I know Michael, but this isn't exactly how I wanted to spend it." She says.

"I know, but there is a way you could help lift everyone spirits." He says.

"How?" She asks.

"How about you sing a few Christmas carols?" He suggests.

"I don't know." She answers.

"Tracy you can sing?" Bridge asks.

"She sure can and she sounds incredible," Kat answers as she enters the room.

"Thanks for the kinds words Kat, but I don't think that you guys really want to hear me sing," Tracy says modestly.

The others nod and tell her that they can use a little music to fill the room anyway.

"Well, I guess I could sing a little." She says finally giving in.

"Great and I'll accompany you with my guitar," Michael says.

Then a small smile starts to creep across her face.

"Michael, do you know how to play 'The first Noel'?" Syd asks.

"Yup, that's one of my aunts favorites." He answers.

Tracy knows the words to that because it was her mother's favorite songs too. Micheal starts to play the song on his guitar and Tracy starts to sing. As the song comes to an end everyone has a look of pure amazement on their faces.

"Guys, what's wrong?" Tracy asks.

"Nothing's wrong you just sound like an angel," Michael says.

Tracy thanked him for the compliment. The others agreed with him that Tracy had an amazing voice.

"Tracy, can you sing another song, please?" Z asks.

"Sure but I have an even better idea," Tracy says.

"What's that?" Michael asks.

"How about we make this next song a duet?" She answers.

Michael nods in agreement. He starts to play "Angels We Have Heard on High". Then Isinia came in as soon as she hears the beautiful music coming from the infirmary.

"Wow, they sound amazing together don't they?" She asks.

"Yes, they do Isninia," Kat answers.

They stand and continue to listen to the song. After the song ends the room was filled with appaluse. Michael told Tracy to close her eyes. He places his guitar on the floor and reaches into his jacket pocket. He takes out the mistletoe and ties on the hook on the ceiling over her bed. After his feet are firmly back on the floor he leans and whispers something into her ear."Tracy, you can open your eyes now." Tracy opens her eyes and looks up at the ceiling.

"Mistletoe, so I'm guessing that you are expecting a kiss now right?" She jokes.

"Well yeah isn't that how it works?" Michael asks.

"Yeah, I was just making sure that you knew that."Tracy jokes.

Michael just chuckles and bends down so Tracy won't have to move for the kiss to take place. Then he gently presses his lips against hers. Tracy can't believe this was happening. After he pushes away, Micheal reaches up and unties the mistletoe from the hook and puts it back in his pocket.

"Well, I'd better get going." He says.

"Where exactly?" Tracy asks.

"Home, my cousins are a little excited about opening their presents." He answers.

"Well, you'd better get going before they tear apart the house or knock down the Christmas tree." Tracy jokes.

"Tracy that's not a very funny joke," Sky says.

"The irony in that joke was that last Christmas my cousins actually did knock the tree down as they drove into it try to get to their presents. I have one more surprise for you." Michael says.

"What is it?" Tracy asks.

Michael reaches into his other pocket and took out a small box. He hands it to her.

"Merry Christmas, Tracy, He says.

Tracy slowly takes off the ribbon and opens it. The box contains a pair of earrings, a bracelet, and a necklace. The pedant on the necklace was in the shape of a heart. It had their birthstones going around the outside.

"Michael, it's beautiful." She says.

"I'm guessing that you like it?" He asks.

"I don't like it. I love it." She answers.

Micheal smiles and gives her a quick peck on the cheek. Then he says good-bye and leaves the room wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and wishes Bridge a Happy Hanukkah.
