The Grinch

Kassandra opens her eyes in a bizarre room full of Christmas decorations. “Where the hell am I? Where is this place?” She started moving her eyes around the room. No one is inside the room except for her. She noticed that the room was painted white and full of Christmas decorations. She gets annoyed at the sight of red and green color decorations around her. “Is this hell?” she asked herself. “Hmm. If this is hell, I could turn this into my own haven.” Kassandra removes all the decorations and started throwing it into the fireplace found inside the bedroom. While she is busy doing her stuff, a woman entered the room. “You are awake. How are you feeling?” Kassandra turned her gaze to the source of the voice. The woman is familiar. “Are you Satan? Is this hell?” She innocently asked the woman. “Satan? Who is that?” the woman confusedly asked back. “If you are not Satan. Then I am not in hell. So, is this heaven?” The woman cannot help herself not to laugh. “What a cute human being. Anyway, you are not in heaven or hell. You are in Noel City, specifically Noel Academy.” “Noel City?” Kassandra stops and thinks for a while. She remembers something. She was hunting the meat for her lunch and supper when she encountered some unexplainable occurrences in front of an enigmatic wall that said to be the link of the human world from the place called Noel City. From what she had heard from the town people, Noel City is a place where people can celebrate Christmas every day. Also, this place is no ordinary. All the residents in this city possessed special abilities that are unknown to common people. “Are you kidding me!? Here is even worse than hell!” Kassandra’s skin turns pale white. “Please bring me back home.” The last words she could mutter before losing her consciousness. How can a grinch like her survive in a place like this?
