It was the start of the month of July, and Patch, Priscilla, and Tornado spent the entire morning decorating the backyard of a beach villa owned by the former two with Christmas decorations. There was a decorated Christmas tree on the patio, fake presents underneath the Christmas tree, lights around the patio, large figures of Santa Claus and Frosty the Snowman in the back corners of the backyard, a large sheet of fake snow covering the ground, a wreath hanging from the back door, a Santa sleigh with large reindeer figures harnessed at the front of it in the center back of the backyard, a snow machine on the front right corner of the patio, and large plushies of Christmas characters placed in different spots in the patio and the backyard.
Patch and Priscilla were Dalmatians who were boyfriend and girlfriend to each other, both regularly spotted and at age nineteen. Patch had a muscular build, a left black ear, and a large spot over his right eye, and he wore a red t-shirt, a pair of black running shorts, and a pair of black and white running shoes. Priscilla had a petite build, both black ears with a light blue ribbon tied to a bow on each one, and long eyelashes, and she wore a light blue tank top, a pair of blue running shorts, and a pair of blue and white running shoes. Tornado was a German Shepherd/Saluki mix at age seventeen with an average build, fur in two shades of brownish orange, and long eyelashes, and she wore a black tank top, a pair of dark yellow khaki shorts supported by a black leather belt with a gray buckle, a brown leather case attached to the belt by its loop, and a pair of brown boots.
“Thanks again for letting me stay with you guys at your new home for a while,” Tornado said as she helped Patch and Priscilla put on some finishing touches on the backyard, “and thanks again for agreeing to do this thing with me.”
“I still don’t know why we have to celebrate Christmas in July, Tornado,” Patch said after he finished setting up the Christmas lights and carefully climbing down the ladder.
“Yeah,” Priscilla said after placing tinsel all over the trees in the backyard. “Isn’t Christmas celebrated in December?”
“Boy, do you guys need to get out and expand your horizons even more,” said Tornado, shaking her head with disapproval in her tone, her hands in fists on her hips. “Christmas in July is an actual thing, and it’s gonna be great celebrating Christmas for the whole month!”
Tornado shouted out some cheers of excitement as she grabbed a red Santa hat and put it on, while Patch and Priscilla looked at each other, confused.
“It must be an American thing,” Patch said to Priscilla.
“Maybe,” Priscilla responded.

Balance was at the table sitting in the Seiza posture as she was sipping some green tea that she found at the store one day, she had her eyes close as the aroma from the tea filled her nostrils of her muzzle, both of her ears were white, on her arms were three spots in a straight line, she had a black vest, a black shirt and black shorts. She started questioning on Shawn's sleeping Schedule since he stays up during the night and sleeps for the rest of the day, but luckily he gets up at 1:30pm at this time.
She perked her ear up when she heard the sound of a sliding door being opened. "Blake, is Shawn up yet?" She asked him.
Blake shook his head. "Not yet." He said to her, he had two black ears, a green shirt and gray pants, one hand was white while the other was black. "I should go check on him."
"See that you do." Balance agreed. "He's been like this since that plague."
"True." Blake nodded as he started going into another room. "But you have to admit that his cooking is." He did a cook kiss with his fingers. "Perfection."
Balance chuckled, she had to admit that she'd rather have Shawn cook than Blake, the last time Blake cooked something, he almost destroyed the Microwave.
"Think that Shawn will want to do his favorite activity?" Blake asked.
Balance shook her head. "I have no idea." She replied as she took a sip of her green tea. "But I do know that he isn't good at rollerblading, he falls on his butt or on the floor."
"Yeah, I need to help him out with that." Blake said to Balance.

Jack was in his beach home which was two floors and he was finishing up the last bit of decorative stuff of one christmas tree inside and outside his house for the full experience. He was a fan of kinky fun but wanted to just relax and not do anything major kinky with his girlfriends, who were Angel, Dixie, and Kate. He had got them some nice bikini clothes, colered for the full christmas spirit in July not that long ago and they loved it and liked that their boyfriend was letting them help out and not be doing kinky stuff all the time.
Jack was wearing his speedo that was red already as he liked to have it to be handsome and sexy during the hot days of the summer and it was one of the colors for christmas anyway so he didn't have to get another speedo in christmas colors, but he did get some santa hats for him and his girlfriends for the special month.
Jack then left his girlfriends at his home and he wanted to explore the town to see how many people are doing this american tradition as well, so he put on a open vest, shorts, and shoes just so he's not almost nude and to not disturp the neighborhood.

Two other Dalmatians joined Patch, Priscilla, and Tornado at the Beach Villa, having arrived after hearing about celebrating Christmas in July. They may not have grown up with the custom, but life is all about trying new things, no matter how weird they may be.
"Shadow," said one of the two, dressed in nothing but an orange sundress, spots decorating her body, though leaving her ears blank. "I can feel the magic in the air. Christmas came early this year." The two were by the Christmas tree, staring wide-eyed at the colorful Christmas lights and ornaments. The visceral sentiment of their surroundings made the two want to stay.
Shadow wore long black pants, which stopped above his bare feet. His chiseled abs and pectorals graced his shape. Spots in the formation of stars covered his upper body, including the ears. Unlike Patch, Priscilla, and Tornado, Shadow himself was barefoot, preferring to stay that way. His beliefs are what caused Shadow to arrive on his bare feet. It connects him to nature and the planet. He chuckled at the Dalmatian with him. "Cecilia, it's going to be a holiday we'll never forget," he said, his tail wagging.
Cecilia, like Shadow, was also on her bare feet, and the ground felt comfortable under her soles. She turned to Patch and Priscilla and said to the two, "Is this your first Christmas in July, too?"

Patch and Priscilla looked over to Shadow and Cecilia, surprised to see that they had arrived sooner than they expected.
“Hello, Shadow and Cecelia,” Patch said as he opened the gate to the backyard for the visiting Dalmatians. “Welcome to our new home. Priscilla’s and mine, that is. Tornado is just staying with us for the summer.”
“Patch and I bought this place,” Priscilla said about the villa. “This is where we will be living together and having children of our own. We’re still working on decorating the rooms inside.”
“But for now, we just finished decorating the backyard for something very special,” Tornado said excitedly. “Yes, it’s Patch and Priscilla’s very first Christmas in July. All this is my idea.”
Patch and Priscilla were still not really enthusiastic about the Christmas in July tradition.
“Well, that takes care of the decorating out here,” Patch said as he went out of the backyard through the gate. “I’m gonna run down to the shop and buy some stuff for the barbecue that we will be having later today. I’ll be right back.”
Patch walked to the store, sending text messages to Balance, Blake, Shawn, Shane, and Jewel about the start of the Christmas in July celebration as he did so. Because he was texting while walking, he wasn’t watching where he was going like he was supposed to. As a result, he bumped into the guy named Jack.
“Oh, sorry, sir,” he said as he looked up from his phone.
Back at Patch and Priscilla’s backyard, Tornado was staring away dreamily with T-bone steaks in her eyes.
“Barbecue, yeah…” she said, panting and licking her lips hungrily. “Ooh, I can’t wait…yeah…”
“So, Shadow, Cecelia,” said Priscilla, not paying attention to Tornado daydreaming about the barbecue, “have you two celebrated Christmas in July before?”

Because he was texting while walking, he wasn’t watching where he was going like he was supposed to. As a result, he bumped into the guy named Jack.
Balance heard the vibration on the table and the beeping sound, indicating that she got a text message. She grabbed her phone and entered her pin number to unlock the phone and saw the message that Patch sent, she smiled as she texted back, letting him know that they were on their way. They just have to wake up Shawn, then sent the message back to Patch.
She then heard the door slide open and she saw that it was her brother, finally up and was yawning a bit. "I was wondering when you were going to wake up." She said to her brother.
Shawn stretched and looked at his sister, he had a right black ear, a left white ear, on his back was a series of spots that form into a fire symbol and on his right leg was five spots, on his legs was three spots, on his right wrist was a mark where a scar could be somewhat be visibly seen and was wearing black and red pants with flames on the pants sleeves, he wasn't as muscular as Patch, but he had a lean body. "Sorry, been staying up all night." He said to her.
"You're fine." Balance said to Shawn. "Just get ready, we have to meet up with Patch, Priscilla and Tornado."
"Okay." Shawn went to his bedroom and got ready.
"SHANE! ARE YOU GETTING READY!!" Balance called out.
"YEAH!! I JUST REPLIED TO PATCH LETTING HIM KNOW WE'RE COMING!!" Shane called back.
"OKAY! JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW!" Balance called out.
Balance knew that their sensei/guardian was out on vacation at Hawaii, she wondered if that's where they should go and have a vacation as well, but then again. Burai would probably take the opportunity to do something while they were away, she sighed. Knowing that their job of protecting the people in Gruteley is never ending. But maybe celebrating Christmas in July will calm those nerves of hers.

Jewel was at her house, she had two black ears, a series of spots around her neck that look like a necklace on her neck and a spot that takes a form of a jewel. She had spots on her body, she had a slender body, but was also wearing a pink dress as she started texting Patch back, letting him know that she was on her way out the door now.

Jack looked down and helped up the dalmation off of the ground, he looked familiar to Jack but he lacked his name.
Jack: Its ok young one, looks like you've been working out some, I bet that Thunderbolt would be proud of your body. You can call me Jack, though I'm sure I've seen you before, and I see your gonna celebrate Christmas in this month of July.

Shadow eyed the giant figures of Santa Claus and Frosty, the colorful lights, and the fake snow. All the artificial possessions are what helps makes Christmas what it is. The star-spotted Dalmatian is all for it, but this is the first time for him and Cecilia.
"This is our first time," Shadow answered. "I've heard of Christmas in July before, but neither CeCe nor I have celebrated it."
"Such a fine place you have here," Cecilia commented.

“Thank you,” Patch said after he was helped back up by Jack, even though it was a stumble and a near drop of the phone, and he quickly read the responses that he just received from those whom he just texted before putting his phone back in his pocket and talking to the wolf for a little bit. “Yeah, I have, and Thunderbolt is, and has been, proud of my body. I work with him and his wife and daughter. I’ve been working with him in television and movies since I was twelve years old.”
Patch then nodded at Jack in response to his guess on what his plans for the month of July would be.
“That’s right,” he said. “I’m Patch Radcliff, actor, producer, game show host.”
Back in Patch and Priscilla’s backyard, Priscilla got out some lawn chairs for Tornado, Shadow, Cecelia, and herself to sit on.
“Thank you,” Priscilla said as she sat on one of the chairs. “Patch and I have been hearing about the tradition of Christmas in July for years, and we never got into it until this year when Tornado suggested it. We never got how and why Christmas in July is a thing, but with Tornado talking about it nonstop to us, we finally decided to give it a chance.”
“And that’s what’s going on here, right now!” Tornado said excitedly. “Hey, I’m gonna go in and get myself a drink. Would you guys like something to drink?”

Balance finished her tea and walked over to the sink and ran water in it, then turned the water off. She walked out the door and breathed in the fresh air. She walked over to the mailbox and got the mail, as she walked toward the house, she noticed a postcard and some mail as she walked inside. "Guys! Hurry up, Jewel will be here any minu--" Balance looked and saw that Shawn was dressed up and ready to go as well as Shane. "That was quick. I should've said Jewel two minutes ago."
Shawn had on a black vest with a white T-Shirt and dark blue jeans as he looked at his sister. "That would've gotten us ready sooner." He spoke as he laughed.
Shane had a left black ear, a right white ear, spots on his body, he was wearing a Navy Blue shirt with blue jeans.
---
Jewel made it to the house and honked her horn, indicating that she was there.
Balance and her siblings, headed toward the car and got in, buckling their belts, Jewel pulled out of the driveway and headed toward Patch and Priscilla's.

Jack:Well thats good, I had him over for a couple of fun sessions together, something that I'm sure you would enjoy but yeah, everytime he had been over he played his role beautifully every time. Nice to see your a actor as well along side Thunderbolt, and a gameshow host! Does that mean your too busy most of the time? I bet you and Thunderbolt have done some fun things together as well. I was just on my way to see if any other people are celebrating christmas in this month when we stumbled into each other.

Shadow sat down in one of the chairs, watching Tornado stand up to the house. He could go for a drink as he turned over to her and said, "Yes, may I have sparkling water if you have it?"
Cecilia sat down in the chair next to Shadow. "Make that two, please." she flashed a smile at Tornado.

Patch had a look of excitement on his face when he heard from Jack about having Thunderbolt over for some fun.
“Nice,” he said, nodding. “Thunderbolt and I do fun things together, even with his wife and daughter. I may be busy, working multiple jobs like everyone else in the entertainment industry, especially managing my own company, but I’m always able to find time to have fun with my family, my friends, and my girlfriend.”
He then had an idea, and it involved Jack.
“I was just on my way to buy some stuff for a Christmas in July barbecue,” he said. “You can come with me if you like, and when I’m done, you can come over to my house for the barbecue.”
Back at Patch and Priscilla’s place, Tornado was about to go back inside the house to get the drinks for Shadow, Cecelia, Priscilla, and herself.
“We have sparkling water,” she said. “I can get that for you guys.”
“And can you get me a glass of iced tea?” Priscilla asked Tornado.
“Sure. Two glasses of sparkling water for Shadow and Cecelia, a glass of iced tea, and a glass of cola for me, coming right up!”
Tornado went inside the house through the back door, with the first room for anyone to go to when they entered the house through the back door being the kitchen.
Meanwhile, a young-looking male reindeer flew to Patch and Priscilla’s place and reclined on the patio roof. He was a two hundred and nineteen-year-old reindeer with light brown and tan fur, a curvy figure, short dark red hair, big purple eyes, a red nose that lit up, and wore a red speedo with green vertical stripes on the left and right sides and a pair of black slip-on shoes. As the reindeer was only wearing a speedo and a pair of shoes, his belly button was revealed to be an outie.
“Ah, summer…” he said in a relaxed tone as he slowly closed his eyes. “What a wonderful time to get away from the North Pole and enjoy the sun while it’s at its hottest…”
The sound of the reindeer speaking caught Priscilla off-guard. She looked around the patio, wondering where the voice of someone who just spoke was coming from.
“Did you guys hear that?” she asked Shadow and Cecelia. “I thought I heard someone out here.”

After making it to Patch and Priscilla's house, Jewel pulled up in the driveway.
"Thanks for bringing us, Jewel." Balance spoke. As she unbuckled her seatbelt.
"No problem." Jewel said with a smile on her face.
She and the others got out of the car and shut the doors and walked up the patio. "Hey guys." Balance said to Shadow, Cece and Priscilla. "Sorry we're late, Shawn was sleeping in."
"Yeah, another vigilante has been sighted somewhere here in the city again last night." Blake said to the others, then eyed Shawn. "I wonder who it could be."

Jack: well, you'd be surprised at the fun we go through, but yes I'll join you, just say what you need and I'll help you get it.
Jack though about where his special guest was coming and where he or she could be.
