- One Christmas Eve, Tom and Steve picked up the present from
- under the Christmas tree. Who was it from?
- When they opened it, they saw a golden egg with a lock. Sarah and Tom
- were so confused about who it was from and where was the key?
-
- The next day, Steve and Tom were trying to open the present but their
- efforts didn't get any result. That night, when the brothers were
- sleeping, Steve heard a strange noise from the kitchen. He ran fast to his
- brother and woke him up.Then the two brothers ran to the
- kitchen and they saw millions of mice, stealing the food, except for one
- mouse, who Tom saw was stealing the golden egg. It ran
- outside and the brothers started to run after it.
-
- The mouse ran into a cave with torches round the walls. When they ran
- into the cave some metres deeper, the two brothers appeared
- in a snowy forest. The two brothers were so confused about all of these
- things that they were thinking that it must be a dream. But no
- matter how hard they tried to wake up, they can't. Steve accepted that
- they weren't having a dream, but that it was real. When they were
- relaxing for a minute, Tom saw some litle footprints at the snow. The
- two brothers started following the footprints to a Christmas tree.
- The footprints stopped there. When the two brothers saw that, they
- were sad.They walked round and round the tree to find any clue but nothing.
-
- Sometime later, a strange noise came from the tree and the tree
- opened and an elf with the mouse came out. The elf was holding the
- egg and he said, 'I've got it now! He will thank me!' When they saw Tom
- and Steve, the elf said, 'Oh, it is wrong time-place'.
- But before the elf got in tha elevator-tree-time-machine, Tom said, 'That
- egg is not yours! It's mine!'.
- 'Oh yes? And who are you? Santa? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!' said the elf
- and got into the elevator. But before the tree closed, the two brothers
- got in.
- 'Let's take it from the start. My name is Tom and this is my brother,
- Steve. What's your name?' said Tom.
- 'My name is Mr. Mood'.
- 'Ok, Mr. Mood. That egg doesn't belong to you. It belongs to me
- and my brother'.
- 'No, it does not!' said the elf and he pressed a button in the elevator… .
-
- Some seconds later, the tree starting to move very fast. When it
- stopped, the tree opened again. From the forest, the brothers were
- now in
- a village. The elf quicly got out of the tree but Tom and Steve ran after him.
- Then, Steve stopped him and told him again, 'That egg isn't yours, it's mine!'.
- Mr.mood said, 'That, that egg… it's HIS'! Then, Steve had an idea. He told
- Tom and they started their plan. Steve told Mr. Mood that their conversation was
- not done, and the two brothers turned back to the elavator-tree-time-machine.
- When they got in, Tom took out the golden egg and said, 'Brother, you are
- a genius! Your plan was excellent! You thought to stole something when
- someone else was talking to Mr Mood'. When the brothers stopped their
- congratulations, Tom remembered that they did't know how to use
- the elavator-tree-time-machine.
-
- They searched all the village for villagers but they found nothing.
- he two brothers started crying because they can't go home. Some
- hours later, Steve saw smoke. Quickly, the brothers ran to the smoke.
- When they arrived, they saw a big factory. They knocked on the
- door and they waited. Suddenly, a big man with a red suit and a long
- white beard appeared in front of them. It was Santa!!! The brothers
- were excited but also sad. Santa asked them what two kids were
- doing in the North pole. The brothers told Santa their story. Santa
- laughed and said, Oh! You were the litle kids who made life hard!
- Also, that elf is one of my workers'.
- 'Why did Mr. Mood say that the egg is his?' said Tom.
- 'Oh, good question!' said Santa. 'Because Rudolf on Christmas
- Eve was in the factory and by mistake, he threw the Golden egg in
- your present box'.
- 'Ok, but why did Mr. Mood say that the egg isn't belong to us?
- asked Steve.
- 'Because that golden egg is the generator from the toy factory!
- Without it, we can't make toys!' Santa said. 'Can you give me the egg?'
- 'Oh yes! Wait. Here it is'.
-
- Mr. Mood was coming and when he saw the children, he became red,
- and when he was in front of factory doors, he started towards
- the brothers. But when he was in front of them, Santa stopped him.
- Mr. Mood told Santa that they were the children he told Santa
- about, but as Mr. Mood was turning to see the children, he hit Santa
- with his arm. With that, the egg started to fall down but Tom got
- it just before it hit the floor. Santa couldn't believe that he could smash
- the egg and destroy Christmas! When he relaxed, he said,
- 'Thank god that kid was here!'
- He took the two brothers to the toy machine and told them, 'I think
- you must get your present! Can you put the egg in the egg case?'
- 'Yes!' said Tom.
- Suddenly, the machine started making toys and all of them were
- for the brothers because they saved Christmas!
-
- The kids said to Santa that they wanted to go home. Santa said,
- Ok, you little heroes. Close your eyes and open them in 10 seconds'.
- When the brothers opened their eyes, they were in their beds. They
- were sleeping but when they got up, it was 2020 and they saw a
- lot of presents!
