Finding the Champion of Christmas
[Santa's workshop was eerily quiet as the jolly, red clad man walks its halls. Not an elf in sight as the many conveyor belts and whimsical devices all lay dormant.]
"Ho! Ho! Ho, no.... where are they all? Christmas is in less than two days and they choose now to slack off? Whatever am I going to do?"
[The jolly, old saint sits down at a work bench with a dejected look in his eyes. He glances lazily out the window as a massive blizzard rages in the darkness, lit up only by the many candy colored lights of the North Pole.]
"Bother. A storm this bad too? Something is very, very wrong."
[Santa gets back up from his seat and walks to the large doors of the workshop. He peers through the panes of glass on the door in a vain attempt to see if anyone is outside.]
A swat van seems to be parked outside, with the 7 swat officers.
Rather than inside though Santa should've been checking behind him as a portal of darkness would open up next to his chimney. Out of the portal would step Axel with his normal red spiky hair and black coat.
"Well, ho, ho, ho to you too. Hey, Santa! It's Axel, got it memorized?"
(edited by Axel)
[Santa grumbles to himself as he sees the SWAT vans.]
"Another prank I'm sure. Millenielves...what am I to do with them?"
[The sudden voice from behind him causes Santa to turn with quite a start. He slowly calms himself before smiling at the Axel with rosy cheeks.]
"Yes, my dear boy! I could never forget your name. I do hope you've been behaving! Oh ho ho!"
Axel would smirk in response as he shrugs.
"Hey, I'm not even working for an evil organization these days. That's good, right?
I mean, there was that 5 munies I took from Roxas without asking...but that's a small thing. Not a big deal, right?"
The swat begin approaching the workshop, they don't seem to be hostile at all.
[Santa lets out a boisterous laugh.]
"Well surely you'll pay him back in due time. Roxas is a good kid, I doubt he'll hold it against you that much. And yes, the Organization was bad for you. I'm glad you got out."
[Santa then looks back to the door and reluctantly opens up the workshop. He waves in the SWAT team.]
"Good evening officers. How can I be of service? Ho ho ho!"
"Seems awfully silent today, Santa, something up?" The other swats begin looking around the workshop.
[Santa strokes his beard with a worried expression.]
"It would seem that all my elves are gone, officer. And so much as I'd like to believe that I can do this all alone, I can't. At this rate..."
[He brings a hand to his mouth in shock.]
"...Christmas may be canceled..."
As though on cue, a young, blue-haired girl seems to trudge her way out of the cold. Though she is in no way appropriately dressed for such weather, she approaches the building with a fierce determination
The swats suddenly switch to a shocked expression as well, a officer suddenly comes up with an idea. "W-we can volunteer ourselves as workers, that's possible right?"
[Santa positively lights up at the offer.]
"You...you would all put yourselves to work?"
[He fights back tears of joy as he responds to the SWAT team.]
"Alright! It won't be easy, but I'll take you up on the offer! I need two of you wrapping, and the rest of you on manufacturing. You'll find your stations easily, just turn on the switch when you're ready to work!"
[Santa notices another figure approaching his workshop so he quickly opens the door again.]
"Ah good evening, Sayaka, I believe it is? I haven't seen you in some time. What brings you out here, my dear?"
Sayaka’s eyes go wide as she sees the jolly old man, she can’t help but pump her fist and shout
IN YOUR FACE HITOMI, I TOLD YOU SANTA WAS REAL
Sayaka blinks for a moment before noticing the emptiness of the workshop and raises an eyebrow
Uh.... Sorry about that. You are Santa right? Looks like you could use some help
"W-well, about the elves.." A swat officer suddenly goes into a very, serious expression. "I can look into them, give me time."
"Yes, I am. And yes, I do."
[He smiles at her outburst with rosy cheeks.]
"I do need a head elf to supervise work flow. Are you up to the task my dear? Ho ho ho!"
[He turns to the SWAT officer with a serious expression of his own.]
"I can think of a few people that would try anything funny with my elves. I doubt it'd be Jack, he understands that Christmas is my domain. But there is one man I do fear..."
[He swallows hard.]
"...Bad Santa."
The officer nods, the rest of the Swats begin heading over to find out where their stations are. "This, 'Bad Santa' you know where he is?"
"He is an enigma. He exists outside of our reality and holds dominion over a world where Christmas only exists for corporate scum to push their agendas."
[Santa winces at the thought.]
"It is possible he abducted my elves and brought them to that other world. But they'll be fine. We can worry about taking down Bad Santa after we save Christmas!"
Sayaka grins, and reaches under her cape, as though anticipating this question
Why I’m glad you asked.
From beneath her cape she draws a small pamphlet that seems to have been drawn in crayon. Sayaka proudly proclaims
I happen to have roughly a week’s experience supervising my own business, Miki’s Delivery Service. We’ll deliver any package anywhere for 100 Yen each. Same day or your money back
Sayaka hands Santa the pamphlet, beaming proudly as she does so.
*Marco was walking through the blizzard in order to find one of the rebel's base but instead he found a workshop, he entered it due to it begin the only place for warmth that he could see*
[Santa smiles happily at the girl.]
"I do believe I can deliver the gifts myself. Rudolph and the others are raring to go, and I don't think I have enough money to pay for all those deliveries! Oh ho ho ho!"
[Santa offers the man a wave as he enters the workshop.]
"Ah! Mister Rossi! Staying out of any extra trouble, right?"
*Marco looks at santa*
Hey Santa and well with the rebel army out their, I have to stop them or else something bad might happen. But I have not been any bad besides trying to stop them
jThe swat officer nods. Once we find him, we will be sure to arrest him. The swat officer gets onto his station, the Swats all pull the levers at once.
Sayaka nods to Santa before running inside and waving at the others, her advertising done
Alright big man, just tell me what you need me to do, I’m always here to help.
"If you'd care for target practice, could you join those SWAT officers in the wrapping section? It would be appreciated my boy."
[As the SWAT members pull the levers, the conveyors begin bringing several parts down the line that need to be assembled. The wrapping stations would whir to life and rise from the ground in the shape of mounted turrets, their ammo of choice being gift boxes. Santa would turn to Sayaka with a large grin.]
"I just need for you to supervise the others and increase the speed as you see fit. The team is in your hands! I'll prep the sleigh in the meantime!"
[With that Santa leaves for the stables in a light jog.]
The swat officers turn to the turret for a second."I wonder if we could strap that turret onto our van.." The swats quickly get back to work, assembling toys, and what not. The other swats begin firing gift boxes onto the toys and the other objects that pass through.
Sayaka counts the number of people on hand, 7, 10 counting her... Santa’s Supposed to have a ton of elves so... Sayaka turns to the workers with a grin
Alright boys, we’ve got two days to do the job of at least three times as many people. So, we’re gonna have to kick it into overdrive, got it?
With that, Sayaka would search the area for whatever it is that affects belt speed, for future use of course....
*Marco nods and goes to the room where the swat is and while going their, he begins to thinks "hmmm from what I heard is that bad santa kidnapped all of the elves maybe the rebel army might have helped"*
Presents are being cranked out a good pace as a cartoonish vacuum sucks them up as they get wrapped.
Sayaka would find a large cartoonish lever with several settings labeled with different images.
Grinch/Normal Santa/Dizzy Santa/Skull and Crossbones
It's currently set to the normal Santa, seemingly average speed.
Sayaka investigates the levers, this is normal speed, probably what the elves used. Since there aren't as many workers, Sayaka grins and shouts to the others
Alright, now that you're used to it, its time to kick it up a notch.
With an unnecessary frontflip Sayaka would kick the lever to the next setting, Dizzy santa, and watch the workers' progress
*Marco begins to help the swat and begins to think "there might be some elfs here... all of them cant be all kidnapped there has to be at least 1 of them still here"*
The belts speed up about fifteen times faster than they were before. The turrets also begin shooting faster to compensate, however it all comes down to the SWAT team to make the gifts fast enough.
Sayaka opens her eyes wide at the dramatic increase in pace, man, imagine how fast the last setting must be. Sayaka briefly reaches for the lever before grabbing her own arm to hold herself back
No, no. That's probably fast enough. Just make sure they do their jobs and.... Speaking of which
Syaka shouts to the SWATs and Marco down in the main factory
I sure hope you can keep up with that, its the kinda pace we'll need to make up for all the elves missing. If you think this is easy enough I can move it up one more level.
*Marco sighs*
Hey girl, I'm going to go check around to see if theirs any elfs that have not been captured and are hiding somewhere
The swats begin to just aim, and shoot whatever is ahead of them, the other swats begin building even faster, and faster.
Sayaka salutes to Marco before giving him the thumbs up
Alrighty then, we could use any help we can get. Oh yeah, and don't call me "girl", my name's Sayaka Miki, care to tell me yours?
It's Marco and sorry for call you girl since I did not know your name
*Marco soon begins to walking around the place looking for any elfs*
