Christmas Morining. Henry knew thay not all his friends celebrated Christmas but it was still the holidays and seasom of giving. Presents wrapped in parchment paper and letters in a eat stacked. The teen's mind bubbled around the BOOM group, smiling to himself. The five people were some of his most brilliant friends, he knew he should tell the others about his fury secret but that day. That day he would send them each a gift to show his gratitude for thier friendship and their pranking group. If only he had another owl to use then his father's....The first one would be to Nicky (Elsa Veronica Bennett). Finishing up the letter, the teen was glad they met and that she helped found their group. The gryffindor was different and Henry knew he had to get or create something special for her. Nicky's letter would arrive to the girl with two wrapped gifts; a wand holster and gryffindor dueling jumper.
Dear Nicky,
Happy Holidays. I might not be the most festive person but you are my friend and I know you recently joined the dueling team. I hope you like the two gifts, one was harder to find than the other but definitely worth it for you.
We have to have a dueling practice together sometime. To practice our skills and also see whose better... only joking! Or am I....
We're the eldest members of BOOM, strange or at least I find it to me. I remember being a second year yesterday and even the day we met with that Spanish book mishap. How were the oldest two of a pranking group and you are the founder.
Anyway, I don't want to keep. Enjoy your holidays and Christmas!
Your Friend,
Henry K.
P.S. The owl bites
Sending off the first letter with the gifts. The teen eyes his desk, one sent and four left. When Apollo returned, Henry perpared the next few gifts and attached letter to the owl.
Second. Scarlet Salvatore. The girl who Henry met before the group, who he trusted a little more. Maybe because they share a fury secret. Not have known a lot of werewolves in the past, the teen looks at his daysvat hogwarts to do exactly that. Smiling softly, he knew that he had to get his friend and co leader of thr secret wolf club something brilliant. It was a struggle to find a gifr for the girl until he settled on a few gifts.
Three gifts neatly wrapped in parchment paper would be sent off with her letter. One; a broom maintenance kit since she's a broom racer now, two; a necklace inspired from her inner strength, and three; a bracelet with the word 'omega' on it.
Dear Scarlet,
Happy Holidays. How was yours? I hope you are enjoying them? Is your uncle celebrating with you? Do you miss spending full moons with him?
Your my friend, fellow wolf, fellow member of boom, and co leader of that club. We share quite a bit, uh? So I thought I should send you some gifts even if I wished to have ticen then in person to you instead. You mean a lot to me and I'm bloody grateful for you. I'm glad we met and that I had the chance to become your friend.
I couldn't imagine life without you in it as my friend. Thank you for your friendship.
I hope you like your gifts, one being more practical than the others. The bracelet, i have a matching one. I thought maybe we cpuld give them out to club members or they could be something between us?
Happy Holidays, Rouge Savior.
Your Friend,
Henry K.
P.S. The owl bites
Sending the owl off with the gifts and letters. Henry turned towsrd his pile, three left. Considering for a moment, who should be the next one when Apollo came back.
Third. Cody Stevenson. Henry decided to send the chaotic hufflepuff's gifts next. Cody is someone unexpected who doesn't care for others opinions and rules aren't something that phases him. Occasionally, Cody gets on the third year's nerves but majority of the time Henry finds the boy fun. A prankster at heart. The spirit of chaso itself.
Two wrapped gifts laid with a letter. A crochet monkey that Henry created and a key with a hidden knife that the teen thought the first year would enjoy.
Dear Cody,
Happy Holidays. I know you don't celebrate Christmas but you do another holiday so I still found a way to send you gifts.
We met this year and while occasionally you can become a little to much or get on another's nerves. You are a easygoing and fun persom to be around, you don't care for others opinions and enjoy the moment.
You are a prankster at heart and rhe spirit of chaos itself.
And I'm glad to have met you and call you a friend. Maybe learn the rules to know what your breaking but besides from that, don't change for thr benefit of others. Only for yourself. You are a unique spirit, Cody and I'm gald to be part of boom together.
Happy Holidays and the owl bites.
Your Friend,
Henry K.
Sending off the third, Henry mentally counted. Three sent and two left. Eyes set on the gifts left, who to send to first. Hands hovering over each before deciding to send to the closer address first.
Fourth. Adeline Hughes. A gryffindor who has the intelligence to be in ravenclaw. Another red head that Henry knows. The teen knew less about her, meeting from BOOM and usually only together because of the group. Typically with the others as well. Henry didn't- couldn't forget about her, he knew he had to send her a gift. But what? That took some time to find the right gifts for the girl.
Two neatly wrapped gifts stood with the letter. One; a small crochet lion that Henry created and two; a muggle prank book since the girl loves pranking. These two gifts were sent with a letter.
Dear Adeline,
Happy Holidays. I kmow we do know each other a lot apart of boom and our shared friends but you still deserve a few gifts this holiday season. and I consider you a friend
It's two items, I hope you enjoy them and that they help with your pranking. Have you set off any pranks at your home yet?
I look forward to seeing you back at school where we are long over do for a duelinf practice together. Perhaps with Nicky and Cody as well so things could be a bit more fun and productive.
Anyway, I don't want to take up your time so happy holidays and the owl bites so watch out if you try to touch him.
Your Friend,
Henry K.
Watching Apollo fly off with the letter and gifts. Knowing there was one left to deliver. The teen pulled the wrapped gifts and letter toward him.
Fifth. Juniper Kelly whoes anything but least or last. Another red head that Henry knew, finding it amusing how many red heads he knew at the school. The teen thought if the first year as brave and courageous, someone who isn't phased by the words or ideas of others. Her intelligence matching the ravenclaw house. The teen was satisfied wirh himself on her... well many gifts.
Four neatly wrapped gifts sat with a letter. One; a small crochet frog to represent Ribbit, Two; a small santa hat that could fit a frog, hamster, or ferret, Three; a broom maintenance kit and Four; a bag of jelly beans and chocolate frogs. All of it will ne sent with a letter.
Dear Juniper,
Happy Holidays to you, your family, and Ribbit. I hope your break is good and that you can see your dog again.
You havr a certain glow, a adventurous and mischievous one that the words of others don't phase you. Keep that. That's brilliant and makes you special and unique.
I lost a friend before I met you, she was pulled from thr school onlt days before we met. She was dear to me and close to me, some nights I still miss her. Your remind me of her, you share her fun energy. Someone always willing to stand up for others and do what your believe is right.
Your a prankster and glad to be a part of BOOM with you. I consider you a friend, you know especially after telling you about my fury secret. Thank you for keeping it for me again.
Your Friend,
Henry K.
P.S. The owl bites.

A boom type of Holiday
Scarlet had only been back home for a couple of days, and while it was great seeing her parents again and Ashur of course, she was already missing her friends from school. BOOM. It was bound to be the best thing to come out of this school year; when Scarlet started in first year, she figured her closest friends would all belong to her own year, but out of the five other members of the club, only one other was in second year.
Christmas had been great so far, she loved the presents she had received from her family, her new broom taking the spotlight of course, she had only just began to feel used to her Nimbus 1700. Whether she had received it because she had indeed made the racing team for Slytherin, or just because it was her grandparents that had bought her the Nimbus 1700, it didn't dampen her spirits as she unwrapped it.
However it wasn't this that put the biggest smile on Scarlet's face that day, in fact, it was examining the delivery made by an unfamiliar owl later that morning, and another one later in the afternoon. The first was from Henry, a fellow werewolf as well as being part of BOOM, she smiled as she read through the letter, 'thank you!' she said in her head as she read towards the end. She giggled slightly as she unwrapped the first gift, seeing how fitting it was considering the other gifts she had gotten, the other two she wanted to put on straight away, she loved them, and so she did.
She rushed to her bedroom, stopping briefly to show her parents the gifts from Henry, and grabbed her quill and some parchment, picking out a small bottle of red ink, she thought it would give her letters a festive feel. She was midway through her letter for her friend when her mother called her downstairs, a letter from Cody! She ran back upstairs with the letter and attached package, glancing at the four other pieces of parchment she had already set aside for the other BOOM members, she was well prepared. She laughed aloud at the message from Cody, it was nothing less than what she expected to read from him, looking over the necklace and smiling at the two great choices she now had to swap between when school resumed.
When all the letters were written and the gifts she had selected for each wrapped and attached, she headed outside and sent each of them off with Evie. For Henry, she chose a necklace with two wolves, she had also got one for herself, for Cody, a fanged frisbee, she didn’t even think about the chaos he could cause with that. She got for Nicky and Juniper a necklace as well, Juniper’s with a cheeky looking frog, and Nicky’s with a feather, and for Adeline, something Scarlet was sure she would use in one of her pranks. It had been a busy time of the year for the owl, as one could imagine, her mother sending seemingly endless amounts of festive letters to friends and family, and it appears today would be just as busy for the owl.

A boom type of Holiday
Every time Nicky received a gift from one of her friends, she ran to show it to everyone in her family and then spent at least half an hour racing around the house, producing happy screams. It was quite an interesting sight, but unfortunately, her fellow boom members weren't there to witness it. So to channel her internal screaming into something more palpable and make her friends equally happy, she wrote each of them a letter.
The first one was for @Adeline Hughes
Dear Addie,
Happy Holidays to you! I hope you're having a great time at home with your family. My family is going crazy as we usually do at this time of year, my aunts are visiting us with all their children so I'm writing this under my bed while hiding from the twins... Long story. I hope you're having an equally great time with your siblings and parents and will be having an even greater time with the fireworks I'm sending to you with this letter.
Miss you!!!!
xOxO
-Nicky
The second one was for @Henry Knight
Dear Henry!
Thank you so much for your gifts!!!! I'm wearing your jumper as I'm writing this letter and it is incredibly warm and comfy! I hope you are enjoying your holidays as much as I am and I also hope you will enjoy opening your gifts which I am sending together with it! I borrowed my sister's owl to send this letter and he is a little bit lethargic so please don't worry if he falls asleep right after delivering the letter, he just needs some time to recharge.
I look forward to seeing you again after the holidays! Hopefully we won't have to fight each other in the upcoming duelling matches between our houses!

-Nicky
When Henry opened the gifts he would find a pair of festive green socks filled with candy and a small package which was labeled 'for Loki' and contained a green fluffy pillow.
The third one was for @Juniper Kelly
Dear Juniper!
I hope you are having a great time at home and enjoying your holidays! Enclosed to this letter you will find your gift from me!
See ya after the break is over!

-Nicky
Juniper would receive a blue cat plushie (just because cats are cute) and an enchanted snowball.
The fourth one was for @Scarlet Salvatore
Dear Scarlet!
Thank you so much for the necklace!!!! I love it!!! Hope you're having a great time at home and will enjoy the rest of your holidays! Attached to this letter you will find your gift, hope you'll like it.
Can't wait to see you again after the break is over!

-Nicky
Scarlet's gift was a tiny snake keychain and a box of chocolates.
And another one was for @Cody Stevenson
Dear Cody!
I don't have the proper words to describe how thrilled I was to receive your gift so I am sending you my happy screaming in a howler which you should also receive soon! I am sending you my gifts attached to this letter and I hope you like them as much as I did mine!!!! I hope your holidays are amazing and we will see each other again soon!

Cody's gift was a stylish black leather jacket with "WE WILL ROCK YOU" written in red letters on the back and a pair of yellow sunglasses. There was also a box of chocolates.

“Well, this is a drag,” Adeline groaned, cutting off her older brother Louis’ rant about which quidditch techniques Puddlemere United should use to secure the Quidditch World Cup this year. All eyes turned to her, looking weary and tired as this was not an uncommon occurrence. “Can we just open the gifts already?”
“Just because you don’t care about Puddlemere United doesn’t mean you can just end the conversation,” Louis shot back.
“Here we go,” Oliver chimed in, making sympathetic eye contact with his mother, asking her to end the argument before it began.
“Adeline, stop,” she stated firmly, giving her daughter a stern look to emphasize her message. “We aren’t exchanging gifts until Sebastian and Ruby arrive.”
Addie rolled her eyes animatedly. “Seriously, Ruby’s coming? And no one told me?”
“She’s going to be part of our family soon, of course she’s coming.”
“Our family already has too many people, why are we adding another one?”
“Let’s not get into this today,” Amelia responded, closing her eyes and rubbing her temples.
“It’s Christmas. Seb and Ruby aren’t even engaged yet. Can’t we just—”
“Adeline, we’re not discussing this. Go to your room. I’ll call you when Sebastian and Ruby arrive.”
“But—”
“Go. Now.”
Huffing and puffing all the way, Addie stomped up the staircase, her footsteps echoing loudly around the foyer. With the loudest noise possible, she slammed her bedroom door, and turned to flop down onto her bed. But her bed was already occupied by a number of small parcels and letters.
Taking a closer look at the presents, it became clear that they were from the other members of BOOM. Without an ounce of patience, Addie tore open one package after the other, excited by all of the new goodies before her. Lots of good pranking materials…she’d have to keep that in mind for when Ruby arrived.
Well, might as well put this unexpected alone time to good use. Adeline took a seat at her desk and grabbed some spare parchment, her beautiful quill, and her favorite emerald green ink. Her thoughts turning to her friends, she began to write, grabbing some random odds and ends from around her room as presents and sending them off to her fellow BOOM members.

Juniper had been receiving gifts from her friends and grinned broadly when the owls arrived at her window, and she quickly ushered the birds in and called her mam to bring the birds food and some drinks. "Mam, can I open them now???" Her mother peered at the letter distracted by the birds. "Uh,,, who are they from?" Her mother asked, and Juniper paused. "My group of friends." She left out that they were a pranking group. An anonymous pranking group. "Henry Knight is an O student who excels in charms. Addy is a duellist, a second year who is my role model for sure. Elsa is a third year, she's so nice to me! Mam, you'd love her. And then there's Scarlet, gosh, she's super nice. And brave. Like, she's super cool. And then you know Cody." She said, making her friends sound like responsible folks. Her mom shrugged and Juniper clapped and grabbed the gifts.
She ran to Cody's room, banging on his door. She barged into her cousin's room and asked if he got gifts, too. "Gifts from BOOM!" She said, sitting on his bed and scattering them out. Opening them one by one, she grinned. She opened Henry's and gasped. "I LOVE IT!" She opened the rest one by one, her heartwarming with a growing pile next to her. "Cody, look what they all got me!" She showed him and ran to get some parchment and grabbed the bag of gifts she had for her friends.For Henry, a she got him a wand polishing kit, though she was sure he had plenty. She attached a sweater for his cat, Loki. Along with hat, she sent him a Marvel Book, "Loki: Where Mischief Lies" So he'd know more on what Marvel Loki is.
Henry,
I LOVED YOUR GIFT OMG THANK YOU! So, I sent you something to clean your wand, a sweater for Loki, and a Marvel book with Loki in it. Do you remember when I met you, and I told you about Marvel? I managed to get the book for you. Please read it, it's very good. Oh, and merry Christmas!!For Addy, Juniper sent a bunch of funny socks. Along with that, she had sent a whole bunch of candy. She also sent a make-shift chocolate frog card in with there was a picture of Addy in it, which she had taken with her once during a BOOM meeting. The card was made of cardboard and paints, but it was still pretty. On the back, she wrote Addy's name and the words 'amazing duellist' on it.
Here, Addy. Enjoy these funny socks, I find them very style-ish. Start a fashion trend, mix and match them, do whatever. You're amazing and super cool!
And enjoy the card!
For Scarlet, she thought for a moment. What could Scarlet do? She was embarrassed that she couldn't find better gifts for them, her friends. She took out the broom compass she bought and wrapped it. She also attached a bunch of quills and a notebook.
Merry Christmas!!!! I bought you a broom compass... It's probably useful? I don't know. ANYWAYS, tell me how it works! Oh, and have fun writing! Ehehe
Loved your gift!For Nicky she attached Jiggery Pokery and Hocus Pocus, a book from Flourish and Blotts. Including funny socks she got for Nicky. She also attached a small bottle of bubbles that she bought from muggles.
I heard this book is FULL of tricks and prank ideas, including LOT'S of spellsss!
Oh, and have fun blowing bubbles!
Merry Christmas!For Cody, she tossed a couple of CDs at him. "Enjoy this music, cousin."
