**__ Kitty Meets the Ghost of Marley __**
 * __ Chapter 1 __**
 * Hello Kitty was at her bank with Landry, her apprentice, when the door suddenly flew open and her niece, My Melody, walked in. **
 * “Why hello Aunt Kitty. How are you today? Merry Christmas!” said My Melody. **
 * “Bah Humbug, Christmas. I say Bah. Humbug. Why do you bother me now?” **
 * “Well I’m just here to invite you to Christmas dinner.” My Melody said. **
 * “And what makes you think I want to go?” Kitty rudely stated. **
 * “Well it’s Christmas and don’t you want to be with your family?” asked My Melody. **
 * “Oh its Christmas and I want to be with my family,” mocked Kitty. “And I want to eat turkey and potatoes and corn,” Kitty continued, “Why do you think I would want to waste my time with your filthy family on Christmas day!!” Kitty hissed. **
 * “It was just a suggestion Aunt. I’m sorry I’m such a bother,” My Melody stated with a straight face. “Good Bye Aunt Kitty. Bye Landry. Merry Christmas.” **
 * “Thank you and a Merry Christmas to you Madam Melody,” Landry answered. **
 * Hello Kitty watched her niece leave and when My Melody saw the look on Kitty’s face, she ran like the wind. **
 * “Bah Humbug my niece. Don’t listen to the garbage that comes out of her mouth,” Kitty said. **
 * “I won’t Miss Kitty,” Landry anwered just to make her boss happy. **
 * “Alright, well I guess you can go now Landry,” Kitty said as she went and got her coat from the closet and heading out the door. **
 * “Thank you Miss Kitty and Merry Christmas,” Landry said as she too was heading out the door. **
 * Hello Kitty was on her way home. She came to the door and was turning the key when she saw something out of the ordinary. Her doorknocker resembled her old partner in business, Pochacco. **
 * “Pochacco?” Kitty asked herself. “No it couldn’t be. No.” **
 * Kitty went inside feeling a little uneasy. She went upstairs to get ready for bed. **
