Chapter 1719 We Are The World!
Today was the day before Christmas.
Whether it was Timothy, Jackson, Gordon and the Other Omanians, or visiting royals and delegates from other UN empires, everyone stepped into the grand ballroom, sighing severally at how incredible the sight before them was.
Timothy and the others even began wondering if this was the same ballroom they saw earlier.
It changed so much that they briefly doubted they went to the wrong hall.
"Wahhhhh... It's so beautiful!"
"Dad, Dad, look! On the ceiling, Santa is delivering presents to the homes!"
"Amazing"
(^_^)
Many people commented endlessly, enjoying the scenery very much.
Timothy had never seen anything like this in his entire life.
As if they were in Hogwarts during Christmas time, the ceilings came to life, and the many short trees strategically placed across the walls were all lit beautifully too.
All guest chairs also had red bows tied on them as well as small boxes of Christmas gifts before each seat.
Seats had names on them, as people had to reserve the number of people they were coming with before this grand event.
Don't think the number of guests here was small, as the number of ministers, officials, overseers, supervisors, and managers, especially for the banks, military personnel, police officers, head security members of the ports, coast guards, marines, Navy officials and their families already took up quite a massive number.
It was daytime outside, but the hall had been purposefully made dark, so the light shows and reactive projections could stand out more.
It wasn't only children who were fascinated by the decorations, but adults as well.
At the forefront of the room were 3 sets of elevated platforms above ground level.
The first elevated platform was a vast performance stage.
And just higher, was another wide elevated platform separated by 2 or 3 open steps.
This platform was for visiting royals or esteemed guests Landon felt should sit close to him. This was where little Momo, Little Linda and those living in the palace also sat.
As for Landon and his lady, as well as Lucius and Mother Kim, they sat on the uppermost platform on their thrones.
When it's time to eat, a table will be rolled over with the dishes already served.
Of course, if they wanted to eat by another guest's side, they could step down and do so too.
At the entrance of the hall, everyone was already told where they were seated after their names were announced.
"His Royal Majesty, Timothy blah blah blah or blah blah blah."
Ohhh~
Timothy held his chest high, knowing many were staring at him inquisitively.
He could mostly see the admiration in their eyes and envy in the eyes of other men wishing they were as tall and burly as Giants.
Since he was a special esteemed guest, a calm butler was there to show him the way, taking it further by leading him to his seat.
"Esteemed guest, here you are sir, P2-01L. Enjoy and have a merry Christmas." Platform 2, seat 01 on the left.
"Ah... Hmmmm..."
Taking his seat, Timothy was happy that Gordon and Jackson were seated beside him too.
They were also amazed to see a prince from a Zohl empire they were not familiar with as well as a Princess from Romain and her fiance.
Children and families were men to sit close to each other, so Gordon also had his wives and children by his side.
However, he soon found that other children wanted their parents to switch with each other so they could sit together.
Parents have their own conversations to talk about and so do children.
Who wants here about your boring politics and rankings on a day like this?
Once in a while, they are allowed to be children, no?
It didn't take long for everyone to get acquainted, as this was truly the magic of Baymard.
In no time, the hall was filled to the brim and the clock struck 2 on the dot.
Pup-pup-pup-pup~
What was that?
Trumpets echoed across the hall, as a group of excited children stormed the scene from the side doors.
They were really very cute in their special attires.
They blew their trumpets and twirled in unison, as they engulfed the entire place in a stunning show.
Suddenly, the ceiling animation changed showing golden light and imaginary pixie dust fluttering down from above.
Gordon's children had their hearts tremble greatly, as they watched with relish.
But was it okay for the show to start without Landon and the other Baymardian royals?
Oh well... whatever.
(^_^)
Oh my, what group is this now?
Everyone watched as group by group, several people emerged from the doors again and again.
This time, some came as elf ballerinas, and others jumped through hoops, twirling in elf tutus.
And then there was the strong!
They came with staff, stumped the grounds, did backflips, side flips and frontflips with martial arts and even spat fire out their mouths.
"Wow!!!"
"Dad! Did you see that? Did you see it? Je just spat fire from his mouth!!!"
"Awesome! 10/10!"
(>□<)
Gordon had never seen his children fan out this much.
It was funny that they spoke to him yelling g across the table. Yet when he wanted to speak, they would raise their hands to their lips and shush him without warning.
"Dad, can you keep quiet? Can't you see that this next scene should be a climax?"
"_"
The performance was quite nice, not only focusing on the spirit of Christmas but also showing the universal items that made each UN nation great.
In one of the UN nations, the things they are most known for are their rare grapes, some that grew in winter and were called white grapes.
They were a unique delicacy, though very hard and fragile to cultivate... especially in regions where the temperatures, weather, and soil types are not suitable.
Soon, the Christmas tale that began warmly, suddenly grew dark as the music changed.
The audience was so immersed in the change of events, that a few children couldn't help shedding tears.
"Dad, how can it be so sad?"
Gordon's little girl of 6 bit her lips, thinking the unfortunate people in the story were really pitiful.
It was amazing that this intro show took no more than 3 minutes, yet it managed to plunge the audience into worry and despair.
But just when all hope seemed lost, little children holding a variety of flags stormed the scene.
"Bahahahahahaha~ That's our UN flag! We are here to save the day!"
"Look! Spearheading the whole operation is Santa and his elves!"
"Yes, yes, yes! But what are they singing? It's really catchy."
(^W^)
----
[There comes a time~...
When we heed a certain call~...
When the world must come together as one~...
There are people dying~...
Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life~...]
----
Many shook their heads from side to side, very immersed in the song they heard.
The message was beautiful, as projections of Santa and his elves swooping in to save the day in various parts of the world now showed up on the ceilings and walls.
"Look! That's definitely my empire! When did Danta get there? Aw~... that girl is so pitiful. I'm glad Santa appeared with a teddy bear, some warm clothes, and medication for her illness."
"Over there! That's our Zohl people for sure! Santa appeared in the nick of time when the boy lost all hope. But Santa didn't give the boy his present, but channeled his caring spirit to the humans besides the boy, using them to spread kindness in the world."
"Didn't you hear the song say that there comes a time when we must all come together as one?"
Many people felt a tug in their hearts, feeling they should do more for their society. At least, they should do what they can and not always blindly bypass those in need.
There's a choice we're making~
We're saving our own lives~
Perhaps Santa or even the heavens would use them to bless other people.
After all, if someone didn't give them a chance would they be in the high positions they were in right now?
----
We are the world~
We are the children~
We are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving~
There's a choice we're making~
We're saving our own lives~
It's true we'll make a better day, just you and me~]
----
The group sang this marvelous song while helping the pitiful people in the story and also giving additional gifts to the children in the audience too.
Gordon's kids held their additional gifts with trembling hands, feeling very special to hear the elves and Santa themselves say Merry Christmas to them!
(>○<)
"Dad, I'm never washing this hand again!"
"_"
Pfft~
Their mothers laughed and many others also joined in, liking to see their children revert to their playful natures.
After all, once back in their empires, even 6-year-olds were serious.
Some even joined politics behind their fathers too.
They watched as enemies got tortured and also learned the true cruelty of the world as such.
But here, they could truly be the kids they are.
And soon, just when everyone was getting comfortable, the royals finally showed up in even more magical ways like fairy godmothers.
WOW!
Many in the crowd had their mouths open from excitement.
The Baymardian Royals were here!
