Elves Work Again as Spotters Track Santa

Listen to this story

After a rocky start to the Christmas season, things at the North Pole finally seemed to be steadying. True, Santa and Waldo Elf were still stranded in orbit—but progress was being made.

Gizmo Elf’s rescue rocket was nearly complete, the elves were back at work, and thanks to the tireless efforts of the Santa Spotters, NORAD was now tracking Santa’s flight path through space.

The elves’ return to the workshop came after Mrs. Claus reached a compromise on snacks: vegetables and fruit first, cookies and cakes afterward. It wasn’t perfect—but it worked.

“It’s starting to feel like we might pull this off after all,” Toby Elf said with a hopeful grin. “Toy production is back on track.”

Mrs. Claus smiled, though her eyes remained thoughtful. “Let’s hope so. We still need to bring Santa home.”

“That part is nearly handled,” Gizmo Elf said proudly. “The Appendapulator performed beautifully building the rescue rocket. And this time”—he tapped a switch on the control panel—“I personally made sure the down button is installed.”

Mrs. Claus raised an eyebrow. “That’s reassuring.”

Just then, Holly Elf hurried in, arms stacked high with papers. “The Santa Spotters have outdone themselves,” she announced. “NORAD just confirmed Santa’s projected path. He’ll pass directly over the North Pole in three-and-a-half days.”

That’s perfect!” Toby said. “We can launch the rescue rocket, bring Santa back, and still be home in time for dinner.”

“And the elves are caught up,” he added. “They even repaired the damage from when the Abominable Snowmen tried their hand at toy-making.”

[by Elvin Elf]

Mrs. Claus chuckled. “Yes… inviting the Yeti into the workshop may not have been my finest decision. Speaking of which—where are they now?”

“I saw them heading toward Gizmo’s workshop earlier,” Holly said slowly. “I’m not sure what they were doing…”

A sudden clang echoed through the halls. Then another. An elf burst into the room, eyes wide.

“The Yeti are in Gizmo’s workshop!” he shouted. “They’re taking apart the rocket!”

Will Gizmo be able to stop the Yeti in time?
Can the rescue rocket be saved before Santa’s window closes?
And what happens if Santa’s only ride home is taken apart piece by piece?
