[BLAST OFF!]

BLAST OFF!

Santa and Waldo Sent Into Space

Listen to this story

BOOOOOM!

The sound shook every snowflake on every rooftop at the North Pole.

Elves dropped hammers, cookies, wrapping paper, and ribbon. Doors flew open. Hats fell off. And in a matter of seconds, every elf was racing toward Gizmo Elf’s workshop.

When they arrived, they found Gizmo standing very still, staring upward.

There was a spaceship-shaped hole right through the roof.

Snowflakes drifted through it like confetti.

The workshop was silent for three whole seconds.

Then—

“What happened??”

“The roof!”

“Was that an explosion!?”

“Where’s Santa?!?”

Voices overlapped, tools clattered, elves waved arms, and more than one elf fainted into a snowbank.

Bernard Elf, Santa’s #1 Elf, stepped forward and raised his clipboard like a captain raising a flag.

[by Elvin Elf]

“Everyone, calm down!” Bernard said, in a voice that tried very hard to sound calm itself. “Gizmo? Please explain.”

Gizmo swallowed.

“Well,” he said slowly. “I was building a spaceship for Santa. You know… for future deliveries. To the International Space Station.”

The elves nodded. This did, in fact, sound like something Gizmo would do.

“But…” Gizmo continued, “…someone pressed the UP button.”

The elves stared.

“Someone… pressed the UP button?”

Gizmo nodded.

“And… the spaceship went up,” he said, pointing through the enormous hole in the ceiling.

Bernard blinked twice.
“Up… with who inside it?”

Gizmo took a deep breath.

“Santa,” he said.

Silence.

“And… Waldo Elf,” he added.

Every elf froze.

The workshop was completely quiet now.

Even the snowflakes seemed to stop falling for a moment.

 

Santa and Waldo are now blasting into space.
This is a developing story at the North Pole.
