alright, big brother.” Chris said, hugging Kit in return.

Rebecca came marching back into the dinning room, followed by Baloo, who was massaging his poor ear. They both retook their seats and Baloo glanced at Melissa, still rubbing his ear.

“Sorry, Aggie,” he mumbled.

“Apology accepted.” Melissa said with a smile.

When everybody had eaten as many pigs-in-a-blankets as they could, Baloo and the kids started putting on their costumes.

Baloo was wearing his hotdog costume from the Friendship Festival. Kit was just wearing his regular green sweater but added a pilot scarf and goggles. Chris just put his bunny rabbit costume back on (he took it off before dinner). Molly was dressed as a princess and Jeffery was dressed as a wizard, also known as Star Bear.  

“Stand together; I want a picture of this.” Melissa said excitedly, taking aim with her camera.

“Aw, Mom…” Jeffery groaned, holding a pumpkin-shape candy bucket.

“Come on, dears, get together,” she urged them.

Baloo picked Chris up, who was trying to hide behind Kit, and held him in his arms.

“Aggie, is the flash turned off?” Baloo asked, setting Chris on his hip. “We don’t wanna hurt Chris’ eyes again.”

Melissa checked her camera and made sure the cursed flash was turned off before taking the picture.

The moment Melissa took the picture, Jeffery yanked open the door and dash outside onto the front steps before Melissa could take another one.

“Jeffery….”  Melissa groaned despairingly. “Must you spoil my fun?”

Baloo, Molly and the Cloudkicker twins laughed at the look on Melissa’s face before following after Jeffery.

“Boys...” Melissa muttered under her breath while rolling her eyes.

Rebecca smiled as she placed a hand on Melissa’s shoulder. “Yeah, I know what you mean, sister. But we love ‘em anyway.”

“Yeah,” Melissa said, smiling as she closed the door behind the ‘boys’ and the princess. “Want a game of checkers? I may even beat you this time.”

“Oh,” Rebecca chuckled. “Dream on, sister.”

Meanwhile, Baloo and the kids made it to the first house. They knocked on the door and waited. The door opened and they all said, while holding out their candy buckets to the smiling goose wearing a witch’s hat:

“Trick or treat!”

End of TaleSpin: The Cloudkicker Trio, Story One, but look for more of the Cloudkicker Trio as the adventure continues in Story Two: An Angelic Christmas. 

And now for a little Q&A to better understand our stories.

Q: Why are Kit, Chris and Jeffery are replacing Baloo as the main character?

A: No one can replace Baloo and we’re not replacing him, we’re just focusing less on him and more on Kit. Besides, Kit was SUPPOSE to be the star of the original TaleSpin series. We believe that due to the faults and evils of Michael Eisner, Kit was reduced to a supporting character and he was even left out in fourteen episodes. We intend to make up for Kit Cloudkicker’s lost screen time through these stories, 

Q: What inspired Chris, Jeffery and Melissa?

A: Chris was created by KitCloudkicker52885, and from the inspiration of what he viewed as a perfect angel of a child who had a difficult life beforehand, but even perfect angelic children are not perfect. Chris had a difficult childhood which caused a lot of phobias to develop, and yet, due to the lack of association with the outside world and was neglected in education, Chris remained as simple-minded and pure as he was when he was a small child, which makes him mentally the youngest of the trio.

Jeffery was created by Kit_Lee and was inspired by his desire to be an honorary member of the Higher for Hire crew. Jeffery’s personality is based on Kit_Lee’s, who is a child at heart. Jeffery is very kind, despite the occasional pranks. He loves his family (Kit and Chris included) and would go as far as to face his fears or risk his life to save them from mortal danger. Jeffery is basically a character who has all that Kit_Lee wants in life: a decent home, a decent family and to be around people he loves and have them love him back, and of course, to have Kit as a family relative. Growing up in the association of his mother’s friends and fellow nurses and doctors, away from peer pressure and influence of the rest of the world and always being cuddled by his mother has made his mentality a couple of years below his actual age. He is a little more childish than he is matured, which makes him the middle child of the trio, making Kit the oldest.       

Melissa was created by Kit_Lee, but was further developed by both authors during the character development and writing of this story. Melissa was created to be Rebecca’s sister, to make Jeffery an actual family relation to Rebecca and Molly, as well as Kit and Chris through Rebecca co-adopting them. Her personality is based on actress Debbie Rynolds as Aggie Cromwell from Halloween Town

Q: What was the reason for sawing Kit in half to begin with and what made you think of it?

A: It's a classic illusion and one we both like, which happens to have been very popular among magicians of the 30's and it's a classic Disney joke.

Q: Why the overuses of the trick throughout the story and at the talent show?

A: When it comes to magic in a cartoon, there’s no such thing as an overuse. Besides, while Kit was just a beginner, the cartoon logic still applies to him (how else could he pull Chris as a bunny out of his hat?) and we wanted Kit to shine in front of the whole school
