The William siblings and puppy all landed in the snow, like dead bodies scattered. Rookie was barking, she was licking Andrew's face, he slowly opened his eyes and looked up at the sky "What the-" Rookie continues to lick the boy's face. He tries to gently shove the puppy away as he slowly sat up as he was lying on his stomach. "I'm ok, Rookie" He thanked the puppy, who was on her hind legs and front legs pressed against the boy, as she licked his cheek again with a puppy smile.

Andrew looked over towards his older brother and sister. "Tabitha! Mason!"

Rookie began barking and ran towards Tabitha. Tabitha was lying on her side. Rookie nuzzles her and began licking the girl's face. Tabitha weakly groans at the feel of the puppy's tongue. Rookie continues licking her face as Tabith slowly opens her eyes, Roomie was overjoyed. As Tabitha slowly sat up, Roomie was in a playful pouncing position with a puppy smile with tongue out. The pPuppy pounced in the girl's arms and tries to climb up her body and licked her cheek. "I'm ok, Girl. Nice job Rookie"

Tabitha's was very still. She looked at the sky. "I swear I just saw Australia"

"Tabitha! Are you ok?"

"I'm ok, Andrew" Tabitha slowly sat up and groaned a bit as Rookie was making Barks, nuzzling her. Tabitha smiled and picked up Rookie from the ground. Andrew and Tabitha got looked at Mason, who was lying like a dead man on his back.

"Mason..Mason..MASON!" They screamed together as he woke up, taking deep breathes.

"Are you ok?" Tabitha asked as he nodded, looking around.

"Where's the Camera?" Andrew asked, looking around for it. Mason pointed to it and Andrew ran up and started brushing off the snow. "Oh, still works" he sighed in relief as Mason was still shocked by everything.

"Where are we?" Mason asked and Andrew and Tabitha looked behind him and saw Santa walking towards him.

"Mason.." Tabitha tried to get his attention.

"I swear I saw Paris!" Mason said looking at the sky.

Andrew and Tabitha slowly saw Santa walked towards him. "Um..Mason?" Andrew called him.

"THAT PLANE ALMOST KILLED US!" Mason yelled looking at his hands.

"Mason?" At this point Andrew and Tabitha were yelling his name.

"I WAS IN THE SKY!" Mason looked around still taking deep breaths.

"MASON!" Both Andrew and Tabitha yelled.

"WHAT?!" Mason shouted and turned around, facing Santa. "GAHH!" He screamed in the most loudest, weirdest, and girly sounding scream and quickly got on his feet and back up next to Andrew and Tabitha, looking at Santa. "Santa Claus?" Andrew smiled as Santa was standing straight with his hands on his hips "Live and in person" he responded proudly. "One night only. You four ok?" He said.

"Yeah" The siblings responded.

"You look so um...different" Andrew said.

"Why?" Santa asked. "Because I'm not a big fat slob?" He asked raising an eyebrow.

"No..I didn't mean it that way.." Andrew looked up at him.

"No, it's ok Andrew. It is understandable. I mean who can only eat millions of cookies in one night and not get fat, right? Well I can!" He pointed to himself proudly.

"Can you go 'ho ho ho?' " Tabitha smiled, Rookie had a puppy smile.

"I don't go ho ho ho, that's a myth. Fake news" Santa walked towards his sleigh.

"Oh" Tabitha frowned.

"Oh no.." he examined his sleigh and turned towards the Underwood Siblings. "You four have really messed things up" He continued "you were supposed to be asleep" he pointed at them.
