NORTH POLE

300 YEARS LATER

A large block of ice was placed on top of a table. Someone then used a chainsaw to cut through it. On their arm was a tattoo that said 'NAUGHTY'. This was Santa Claus, or North.

"Still waiting for cookies!" He called to his elves.

North grabbed a tiny hammer and was slowly chipping away at the ice, until it was shaped like a toy train. He lit the train on a track made of ice and watched it run down the track.

Some elves came up next to him with a plate of cookies. One elf pointed to the plate, while the other spit out cookie crumbs.

"Ah, finally." North took one and ate it. "Mmm."

He then laughed as he watched the train fly off the track and into the air. It flew around the room until it got close to the door and a yeti opened it, smashing the train.

"Ah!" North exclaimed.

"Ooh!" The yeti gasped.

"Ah!"

"Ooh!"

"How many times have I told you to knock?" North scolded.

The yeti said something in gibberish.

"What? The globe?"

...

Multiple elves were gathered around the giant globe that had thousands of glowing lights on it.

"Shoo, with your pointy heads. Why are you always under boot?" North said.

North looked at the globe and saw that some of the lights were going out.

"What is this?" He whispered.

More lights were going out.

"Have you checked the axis? Is rotation balanced?" He demanded.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew throughout the room and the globe started to become covered in black sand. The sand rose up and created the outline of a man who laughed evilly before disappearing.

"Can it be?" North wondered. "Dingle. Make preparations. We are going to have company."

North activated a switch that created Northern lights which spread all throughout the sky.

...

Meanwhile, in another part of the world, a small fairy was hovering over a sleeping child before diving under his pillow to collect a tooth and leave a coin. She then flew off to the Tooth Palace to add it to the collection.

"18 central incisors. Moscow, sector 9. 22 incisors, 18 premolars."

The little fairy placed the tooth she had in a special box before flying away.

Other little fairies were at a machine that distributed a coin to put under children's pillows.

"Des Moines, we've got a cuspid at 23 Maple. Head out!" The Tooth Fairy, which was much larger than the smaller ones, was commanding everyone on where to go. "Wait, it's her first tooth. Have you ever seen a more adorable lateral incisor in all of your life? Look how she flossed!"
