The Christmas Adventure

4

The William Siblings couldn't believe it. There it was, The sleigh, Santa's sleigh floating right in front of them, being pulled by reindeer. This had to be the best Christmas ever.

They all had jaw drops, Mason's jaw was dropped in shocked, Tabitha's jaw had a grin, Andrew was just grinning. Even Rookie had a doggy like smile with tongue sticking out.

Andrew was jumping up and down tugging onto his sister's arm, while Tabitha grinned "This is so freaking Awesome"

"Tell me, you're getting this" Andrew asked in a dazed voice. Tabitha looked in amazement, repeated what she just said. "This is so Amazing"

"Oh yeah, right" Mason said quickly as he held up the camera up showing the sleigh and reindeer.

"It's more beautiful then I ever imagined" Andrew said still looking up.

"It sure is" Tabitha said.

Andrew then looked to the side, an idea coming to his brain. He quickly ran and climbed on a truck and then onto a little shed while his big brother and sister chased after him to see what he was doing, also jumping onto the little shed.

"Andrew" Tabitha caught him climbing on the electricity pole. "What are you doing?" She asked holding his foot to stop him from going any farther up. "Do you realize how big of a deal this is? I need to get a closer look" Andrew said to her sister.

"Get down" Mason shouted at him.

"No way. Hand me the camera!" Andrew told him.

"Fine" Mason agreed and hand him the camera before he got any higher. "Careful. You break your neck, and mom will kill me" Mason said.

When Andrew was high enough to start filming, Andrew turned to the other side of the pole, while the Mason protested knowing what he was going to go. "Andrew...what are you...Stop!"

Andrew jumped into the sleigh.

Tabitha puts Rookie on her shoulders, Rookie moves around and is in a position where she on the girls shoulder, claws digging in the girls coat. Rookie is on Tabitha's shoulder with her body leaning on the girls upper back, she was leaning her upper body over Tabitha's shoulder.

Mason turns and sees Tabitha climbing up.

"Tabitha get back down here!" Mason said.

"Sorry, Mason, but this could be probably be a once in a lifetime thing" Tabitha tells him and continued climbing. "This is Santa's sleigh, hello. Stay here if you want, but I'm not missing this opportunity" she climbed even higher. "Come on, Mason!" she said before Turing to the side of the pole, jumping in too. As Tabitha was leaning was on edge of the sleigh, Rookie jumps down in the sleigh as Andrew helped his sister in,

"You gotta be kidding me" Mason sighs at his younger siblings. He did it the hard way and ran and jumped on the sleigh holding on by the feet tipping the sleigh a little. After he had Tabitha helped him into the sleigh pulling him up. "Are you nuts? Why did you do that?" He questioned his brother and sister when he finally got into the sleigh. "I wasn't gonna skip out of this big opportunity. I mean, Santa's sleigh, hello" Tabitha states the obvious, smiling.

"Besides, We wanted to get a closer look at the sleigh" Andrew then answered him, Rookie barked. "See, even Rookie agrees"

Whooshing was heard after Tabitha answered to which they all looked over and saw him, Santa Claus on a roof of a house, but ducked when they saw him looking in their direction. "Did he see us?" Andrew asked.

Tabitha looked at him "I don't think so". Happy let out a few squeaking.

Mason turned to his siblings "We got enough footage. Let get outta here"

Andrew, not wanting to get out just looked at him "Why don't we just stay here?" He questioned.

"Stay here? In the sleigh?" Mason looked at his little brother to see if he was serious or not.

Andrew nodded "Yeah! How many kids get to ride with Santa in his sleigh on Christmas Eve?" He asked.

"No one, Andrew. No kids at all. We're literally the only Kids to do the unthinkable, the impossible" Tabitha smiled "This is so cool". She turned towards Mason "You know he has a point" the girl smiled then thought of a moment. "This could be a one lifetime thing..I'm down" She got comfortable.

"No, Ok-" Mason when to argue but stopped as Santa jumped on the sleigh.

Santa threw his sack of toys in the back, almost hitting Andrew and Tabitha. Tabitha pulled him towards her, pushing the sack off of them, before grabbing the reins for the reindeer's making them take off.

Now in the sky, the kids looked out to see the cities underneath them. Rookie was puppy smiling with her tongue out. Tabitha grinned as Mason looked in amazement before taking the camera and recording Santa for a little then turning it to his brother and sister.

"It's freezing" Andrew said shivering.

Tabitha looked at Andrew "Hang in there. He's gonna go back down again soon" She reassured her little brother.

"Maybe Santa has a blanket?" Andrew suggested.

"I'll look, Tabitha, you take the camera" Mason gives the camera to his sister and starts looking around. Rookie jumped into Andrew's arms and nuzzles him.

Andrew slowly stood up not wanting to fall and reached out and tapped Santa on his shoulder. "Santa?" Not expecting a child in his sleigh, Santa screamed in shock of fear, making Andrew screams as well, Rookie barking, causing the reindeer to be frightened and go haywire.

Santa stood up to try and take control of his reindeer, suddenly the sleigh went up, which sent Andrew barreling back over the sack of presents, holding onto Rookie, who was against the boys front shoulders as Rookie's back was turned against Mason and Tabitha. Rookie then climbs on Andrew shoulder with her upper body leaning over his shoulders, her claws digging into the boy's coat. Andrew was screaming as he hangs on the rim of the sleigh.

"Help me, Tabitha! Mason!" he screams, just before Tabitha could grab Andrew's hand, he slipped, both now plummets to the ground.

"Andrew! Rookie! Help!" The two older siblings yells at Santa, he turns around "Who?" before quickly turning the sleigh and making it dive.

"Mason, hold onto me" Tabitha shouted.

"What!" Mason yelled.

"Do it!"

Tabitha leans a bit out of the sleigh reaching half of her body out, as Mason was holding onto the back of his sister's coat, half of her body outside the sleigh. Andrew was holding onto Rookie in his arms.

"Andrew! Grab my hand!" Tabitha tells as she holds his hand out trying to catch him, Tabitha leans out as Mason held onto her.

"Reach!" Both Mason and Tabitha yells.

"I'm trying! Tabitha!" Andrew screams as he tries to grab ahold of her hand with one hand, the other one holding onto Rookie. "You got this Andy!" Tabitha yells as Andrew manages to grab a hold of her arm as Tabitha gripped him, Mason begins to pull her back into the sleigh, she pulled Andrew and Rookie even closer while Santa pulls the Sleigh back up. Andrew was buried in Tabitha's chest, Rookie, now in Tabitha's arms along with Andrew.

Just as everyone was fine for a second everybody screamed as a plane was coming towards their direction. Thankfully Santa managed to avoid it at the last second, then they somehow went through some type of portal of something as the kids were seeing places like New York, France, and Australia in seconds before it closed the sleigh flying off as they were flying at high speeds. Santa's hat flew off. They left the tunnels and Santa tried to keep his reindeer steady, but only made the sack of presents falls. Then suddenly the reins snapped off, broken as the reindeer started flying off leaving Santa and the children now crashing faster towards to ground. "Hold on to your brother and sister!" Santa yelling messing with buttons before wings popped out of the side.

Mason held onto both Tabitha and Andrew, he buried his head in Tabitha's chest, eyes closed, Rookie was in his arms. Tabitha held onto him tighter along with Rookie. As they were now gliding down at a fast pace one of the wings got torn off by a water tower they passed falling closer towards the ground. "Brace Yourselves!" Santa warned as the other wings got torn off. The Sleigh had crashed now throwing everyone off in different directions.
