a Christmas story || ✔

Santa never checks twice

Twas the night before Christmas, and all was quiet accept for a  music box that chimed it's song. But how could a simple music box go wrong? Well as jolly saint Nick went to deliver the toys form the house next door he could hear the gentle tune. It filled his ears as he began to wonder who's song of slumber. As Santa Claws exits the house to go to the source he finds not even a mouse would enter that house, for the minute he set foot on the lawn he turned as frightened as a young fawn. "Surely there is a mistake.", he said. " For how could this song a naughty child make?", in pondering Santa stood drawing closer and closer to the door of wood. Pushing open the door and set foot on the floor, as a shiver went down his spine. For standing next to the tall pine was Abby of Treblebee road. Abby was on the naughty list and for good reasons too. Not because she was mean or rude, but because Abby had disturbing thoughts. At this moment Santa heard the music had stopped and  not another word till Abby spoke. 
"My music went out, so I decided to wait for you.", Santa smiled and patted her head, for what was so wrong with Abby as he sent her back to bed. He laid some gifts under the tree, but little did he see. Young Abby had snuck into the kitchen and grabbed off the counter something that gleamed. As she crept back to the man in the red suit she didnt think twice of anyone in pursuit. Abby grabbed  Santa, and handed him a bell that gleamed and beamed like a shining star. " Thank you." Santa said with a smile on his face. Soon that smile faded to face of horror for right before him laid a pale and distant Abby, a knife in her back and blood on her hands. Two pairs of foot steps were heard that night, no one will know who left this horrible sight. But always know Santa never checks twice.
