Christmas Story by Elizabeth, Neon Aegina

It was New Years Eve and Santa Claus with his elves prepared his fast, modern sleigh with all the gifts for the children, which he would have to deliver within four hours. Thankfully, that amazing vehicle of his managed within only two hours to deliver all ermm…almost all the gifts. After the crew returned to the North Pole, the sixteen year old son of Santa,Ivan, wanted to see his father’s sleigh. But Ivan was a naive and clumsy boy and Santa never allowed him to approach the luxurious sleigh, so he went in secret. Unfortunately, he caused serious damage to it. A few minutes after Ivan had destroyed the sleigh, the elves found out that they had forgotten to give a present to a little girl. Santa Claus, in his rush to go to his sleigh, which he did not yet know was damaged, stumbled and broke his right hand and foot. Ivan felt sorry for the sleigh and his father, but he was more sorry for the little girl who would think that Santa had forgotten her and did not love her anymore. So, he hastily went to ask Santa’s father, his grandfather, if there was a way that could arrive at the girl’s house in one and a half hours. His grandfather showed him the way that he used to share the presents; with one sleigh and four reindeers. So Ivan and his grandfather began their journey. While everything was going just fine and the girl’s house was close, Ivan lost control of the sleigh and as a result, fell into a hillside a few miles away from their destination. For their own misfortune, they did not have the proper tools to repair it and the grandfather was too old to deliver the gift on foot by himself, so the only option was Ivan. Then, he began to run as fast as he could because he only had forty minutes at his disposal to travel four miles. Despite the cold and the bad weather he had to deal with, he successfully managed to be in the house just before sunrise. Coming in, he saw her beautifully decorated house and left her gift under the Christmas tree. Suddenly, he heard someone coming down the stairs, and at that moment he realized that the girl had seen him. She hugged him and Ivan understood for the first time how important his dad’s job was to all the children in the world. Happily, he left and went to find his grandpa, who had already called for backup to help them fix the sleigh and return home.

Thirty minutes after Arthur had destroyed it, the elves found out that they had forgotten a little girl. Because Santa was in a rush to go to his sleigh, he tripped and broke his right hand and foot. Arthur was very sad about his father and the sleigh, but he was even more sorry about the girl who might think that Santa had forgotten her. So, hastily, he went to ask grandfather Claus how they could arrive in one and a half hours at the girl’s house.

His grandfather showed him the way that he had distributed gifts in his years as Santa Claus, with 1 sleigh and 4 reindeer. Thus, Arthur, with his grandpa, began their journey. While everything was alright, at the moment before they arrived at her house, Arthur lost the control of the sleigh and as a result, they fell on a mountain side 4 kilometres away from their destination. Unhappily they didn't have the right tools to repair it and grandpa was too old to do the delivery himself. The only option was Arthur.

Suddenly, he started to run as fast as he could because he had only 40 minutes to distribute the present. Despite the bad weather  conditions, he successfully managed to get into his destination a few minutes before sunrise. Getting into the house, he saw the beautifully decorated Christmas tree and under it, he left the girl’s present.  But at that  moment, he heard someone coming down the stairs. Without time to react, he realised that the girl had seen him. She hugged him with the passion of unconditional love and Arthur, for the first time in his life, understood how great and important was his father’s job for all of the children around the world. Gladly, he went to find his grandfather. Together, they repaired the broken sleigh and went home to celebrate the new  year.
