Well in this story there's a Scrooge who ten times more and another man who wants independent crime-fighting shuts down because of not asking permission from the US Government.
Awesome.

Chapter Ten: Rescue and reunited, part two

Somewhere in Minot, North Dakota

Henry: *to Carmen who is handcuffed to the chair* Carmen, it's been a long time, you should have been with me as my wife but never care we would have saved an American business together from foreign investors and industrialists like Malcolm Avalon for example.
Carmen: I never like you and I never do.
Henry: *as one of Henry's men gave Henry the file* Until Chief Weller hides a secret that no one should find out ever until now.

Meanwhile outside of the Mall of America, Bloomington, Minnesota

*Jade and Team Sonic are shocked and unamused*

Amy: Great, not a single Christmas shopper inside.
Jade: Maybe someone was warned not put Christmas decorations there by Henry Glock.
Sonic: That's wrong, but why is it close all of the sudden.
Agent Kris: *voice only* Perhaps, I can answer your question, Sonic.
*Jade and Team Sonic turn around and saw a man who looks like Chase Devineaux but in a red suit*
Tails: Who are you?
Agent Kris: Call me, Agent Kris.
Jade: Are you from ACME?
Agent Kris: Not exactly, Jade, perhaps the answer is these. *As he gives Jade something familiar to her*
Jade: My nanotech glasses, thank you, Agent Kris. *As she removes her glasses and puts on her nanotech glasses and saw Team ACME [Chase, Ivy, Zack, Lee, Cole, Jason, Tyson, Jessie, Spencer Ross and Brenda N. Butters] and Team WOOHP [Samantha/Sam, Clover and Alex] each got tied up with restraining rope and end up at the back of the building until some men enters and each one grab one to another* Ho-Ho-Oh no! Sonic, everyone my friends from ACME and WOOHP are in danger.

Agent Kris: Then you all must save them while I'll go bringing back a surprise for the one who ruined ACME and WOOHP.

Jade: Thanks Agent Kris, but...Huh?!?! *As she sees something familiar to her* My bracelet. *As she picks up her bracelet and figures it could come in handy*


Meanwhile Inside the Mall of America in the place called 'Fun Park' (fictional name for their indoor amusement park)

*As each men places each member of Team ACME and Team WOOHP into a swing pendulum called the 'Screaming Zone' [which has a sign that said 'Out of Order'*

Gary: *as he came* I hope you feel comfortable, but this is going to be your last ride, I'll make sure you won't participate in crime-fighting without the permission of the government.

Jade: *voice only* That's where you're wrong, Colt.
Gary: Who in the-*gasped and saw Jade in her advanced instant battle suit [remember The Plumber and the Hedgehog what it looks like] * I should have known I thought you'll be staying in Ann Arbor, but I've figured no town will accept you say have fun for your friends. *As he starts the swing pendulum by activating the machine, and each member of Team ACME and Team WOOHP screamed*

*Jade goes after Gary, but the men go after her until Team Sonic aided Jade while handling the men and Sonic grabs Jade to stop Gary and they did*
Gary: What do you want to do? Stop me or save your friends. *Team ACME and Team WOOHP still screaming at the swing pendulum* You have room for one.

Amy: *Holding her Piko hammer* I've got this, Jade! *And she smashed the machine that led to the swinging pendulum and the swinging pendulum stops moving*

Zack: *feeling nauseated* Oh man, I'm going to hurdler.
Spencer: *feeling dizzy* Not here, Zack!
Jade: *to Gary after she handcuffed him and move away* Merry Christmas, Gary Colt!
Gary: What do you-huh?!?! *All the sudden lumps of coal came out from above and he screamed as he got cover in lumps of coal*

Outside of Mall of America

Clover: *as ACME Medical Center medical members came and check on Team ACME and Team WOOHP* Thank goodness, I thought we all end up dizzy.
Samantha (Sam): Well, Clover, thanks to Jade and Team Sonic we're back.
Alex: Yeah, thanks Jade, Sonic!
Sonic: No sweat, girls!
Chase: *to Jade* I don't know how but-
Jade: It's a very long story!
Spencer: Same with the rest of the us.
Brenda: Unfortunately, my parents lost their bed and breakfast business to Henry Glock.
Jade: *Angry and her face started to get fiery red* That really burned the curry out of me.

Moe: *to Lars* There she is! *As he and Lars came to Jade*
Lars: Oh, ACME, Miss Jade, thank goodness you're okay but our boss isn't.
Chase: What?!?! Don't tell me Henry Glock just...
Moe/Lars: Got Carmen and held her hostage in Minot, North Dakota.
Sonic: Now what?
Jade: Sonic, it's time to teach Glock a history lesson about Christmas in America.

Minot, North Dakota

Henry's Hideout

Henry: *to Carmen* Well, Carmen, it seems the government will make sure they'll ban Christmas for good. *Knock on the door to a henchman* See who's there?
Henchman: *gasped after looking through the peephole* Sir, it's ACME!
Henry: What?!?! I thought Colt took care of those independent crime-fighters once and for all.
*The C-5 appears and so did Team ACME, Team Sonic and Team WOOHP*

Jade: Ho-ho-ho, Merry Christmas, Glock!
Henry: Bah, Humbug, it's already over Christmas is banned forever just like my ancestors did.
Samantha: As in the Puritans.
Henry: That's right, it's a pagan holiday.
Jade: You're wrong again, Glock, have your parents ever take you to church on Sundays or would have read the good book to talk about a special person who was born in the City of Bethlehem?
Henry: Good book more like a fairy tale to me.

Clover: Well, you're wrong again.
Sonic: Indeed, Glock, however we're going teach you a lesson about the history of Christmas in America.
Chase: *as he lockpick the handcuffs from Carmen* After the pilgrims arrive in 1620 everything's normal.
Zack: Until 1659 after what happened in the English civil war; Massachusetts was the first state to be banned Christmas.
Ivy: Under a Puritan leader named Oliver Cromwell who passed a law at parliament in England that made Christmas unlawful.

Tails: Even the mince pies.
Amy: Tails!
Tails: *to Amy* It's true.
Henry: Indeed, my ancestors did follow the rules, if others don't follow either pay the fine or be whipped. *Until the henchman got knock down by Arthur Chance and Stewart Sterling handcuffed the henchman*

Arthur: Until the ban was lifted in 1681 when Cromwell lose his power.
Stewart: And started having Christmas again in 1686 having the first Christmas service at town hall in Boston.

Henry: Still Christmas should never have been a holiday in America.
Jessie: Well, that's true and false in 1836 Alabama is the first state to make Christmas a legal holiday.
Jason: It didn't become a federal holiday until 1870.
Tyson: You know something, Glock, you should have read A Christmas Carol or How the Grinch stole Christmas.
Cole: Or even seen the movie 'It's a Wonderful Life' [I don't own the books or the movie whatsoever]
Lee: *as he handcuffed Henry Glock* And that's why, Henry Glock, you're under arrest for embezzlement and ruined Christmas. *As the policemen came and take Henry Glock and his henchmen away*

Agent Kris: *as Team ACME, Carmen, Team Sonic and Team WOOHP came out* Good work, everyone!
Jade: I'm glad you got the law enforcement in time.
Agent Kris: Not exactly, Jade, everyone knew what happened and they were upset losing businesses and homes too. Oh, by the way, everyone is going home for the holidays.

Lee: Well not everybody is going to see their own families.
Agent Kris: Like you, Lee Jordan, you have some family issues of your own.
Lee: *as his face downcast with a sweat* That's true, Agent Kris.

Agent Kris: And when you all get back home there's surprises for you from the ones you met.
Clover: Oh wow! Thanks, Agent Kris, how about a kiss underneath the mistletoe?
Agent Kris: Sorry, Miss Clover, I already have someone back home, anyway, Merry Christmas!
Jade: *as Agent Kris leaves* Merry Christmas, Agent Kris!
Chase: I wonder who is Agent Kris, Jade?
Jade: I think I know who Agent Kris is already...and just in time to save my favorite holiday.
Carmen: I agreed, Jade!

Sonic: And we got great news from the ones you know.
Jade: Other than Chase telling me that Henry Glock pay Mason Dixon and the Greyhats to vandalized Christmas themed places and stealing Lee Jordan's profile while taken the top-secret file about Carmen Sandiego connection to Malcolm Avalon from Chief Weller's safe.

Tails: Well, here they are. *Through his Miles Electric* Okay, you guys one at a time.
Jamal: *on screen* Merry Christmas, Miss Jade!
Jade: Merry Christmas, Jamal, Sister Ethel, where are you two?
Sister Ethel: *on screen* We're just settled in a good neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio thanks to the organization that brought us here and thanks to you, we've got a better life.
Jade: I'm glad you two are okay.

Reverend Clarence: *on screen after he came* Merry Christmas, Miss Jade!
Jade: Reverend Clarence or should I call you...
Reverend Clarence: *on screen* Reverend Clarence is fine, because I've got my license to preach back.
Jade: What happened?
Reverend Clarence: *on screen* After getting my license getting revoked...they found that was Henry Glock's idea and embezzled all the money we save to help everyone including the homeless and thanks to the authorities I've got my preaching license back and help the ones who are blind.
Jade: Congratulations, Reverend Clarence and bless you, Jamal and Sister Ethel!

News Reporter (male): Thanks to ACME Medical Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, fourteen-year-old Daniela Cornfeld gave birth to a seven-and-a-half-pound boy safely, while her father and stepmother are arrested for embezzlement connected to Henry Glock who was arrested in Minot, North Dakota...

Jade's mind: Well, well, I knew those two are going to regret themselves along with the school Daniela attended and oh fudge, that teacher (male) is in trouble for he has done to her, I'm glad Elijah came in time to see her and her son safe along with his grandparents getting their bakery business back, I'm glad Elijah told the reporters the truth in time about how Daniela's grades have gone down and somewhat 'extra credit' the teacher did.

News Reporter (female): Meanwhile in Woodbury, Minnesota, we just learned that Alina and Dieter Kopp are now happy living in a new life thanks to Mr. Peck who passed away a few days ago after suffering a heart attack when he found out about his three daughters.

Dieter: *on screen* According to his lawyer each of his daughters passed away once a year due to what happened in their own lives and according to Mr. Peck, he left everything to local charities, and he left me and Alina, a home he has here and after adopting Zoey in Ann Arbor, Michigan, we're now happy parents.

Alina: *on screen* And I'm proud of my husband getting a job fixing things and me helping the elderly while Zoey gets all the help, she needs with education and medical support.

Jade's mind: I'm glad it's a wonderful life for the family.
Cream: *as she and Cheese came with Jade's Padphone* Miss Jade, Miss Jade, you've got a message from Mr. Chase.
Jade: Oh, thanks, Cream! Sonic, Sally, we better meet Chase in Montana.

    ((IRL: @Lucy2... You may have to just start a new account (if the system lets you)... we don't know who all has admin access, so 'password recover emails' might not get seen or dealt with. If you do, I'd suggest a new account, and a series of posts linking to the old account. Keep in mind, we're in Minnesota, so cold is a thing... if you wanna trade, we're open to place tickets! We can't really do anything until we hear from the appeal guy... anytime between the 19th and December 5th, so in theory move-out could be end of December (unless it gets here before the end of this month) or maybe they can stay... no idea. So, the other place door... that's what we'd have to fit everything through.))

    ((So... the latest is that the woman who reported the folks to the police, called the guy who handled the appeal (after we left the room) and told him that if he doesn't make sure to get the folks out of the building, she'd make things difficult for him. The property manager told ma a few days ago, and ma told me today. So, anyone know what that would be called? Coercing, bribery, influence peddling? Would that invalidate the eviction? This is Section 8 housing, so low-income housing. The appeal decision should in theory get here next week or maybe Friday, and they can appeal again, maybe this one would be in real court... don't know. I will advise the folks contact legal aid and see what they say.))

    ((Correction: the parents are caving, they are planning for the move ON January 1st, without waiting to hear what the appeal decision is, and not willing to fight it. I stormed out of their place tonight (punched the call button for the elevator... they may have heard it), because I know they could win the second appeal hands down (they don't want "more of the stress from all this", they would discuss shit when I went to the bathroom tonight). I reminded them they may not get the entertainment center through the door to the apartment, we probably will have to take the claw legs off the table for the first time ever, but they have their heart set on it. ))

Once we leave this place (section 8/low-income housing, the waiting list is over 2 years), that's it... the building manager retires later 2025... she pulled a string to get me in here))

    Did you know.....The original candy canes were straight sugar sticks that were often used to decorate Christmas trees. The first historical reference to the cane shape was in 1670, when the choirmaster at Cologne Cathedral in Germany bent the sugar sticks into the shape of a shepherd's staff. Candy canes remained white until the early 20th century when red stripes and peppermint flavor became popular.
