  The Night before Christmas

  It was Christmas morning. I ran down stairs, but there was nothing there. I called Ryan and we went to find my mom. When we found her, Ryan, my mom, and I thought about who could have done this. I said, “I know who it is. It’s the Grinch!” My mom and Ryan agreed. We went looking for Santa. We looked on the roof and we saw what looked like reindeer footprints. We looked and looked, and then we got to New York and found him asleep. I woke him up and we helped Santa deliver the presents. He said thank you. Then he gave Ryan, my mom, and I a gift. We gave him milk and cookies. Then he went back to the North Pole.

  The Grinch and Chucky

  The night before Christmas I was scared because Chucky came inside my house to steal my presents. He went outside and there was the Grinch, still the presents went outside and all the presents were gone.

  One Christmas morning in my living room I woke up and ran down stairs. Everything was gone! But I knew there was someone in here! So I gathered my friends, Miley, AJ, Sadi and sasha to get on the internet also we looked up how to track santa. It said that santa was last at Illinois St. of the path of Illinois st. We saw marshmellow that has to be from the reindeers, Miley said. Said said again how are we going to save Christmas Sadi said for now lets test follw the clue. I said. So we kept on looking on the path. About 20 minutes later we actually found santa! He said what are we doing! Sun looked at miley, miley looked at sasha, looked at aj and aj looked at me! What FINE! Ill tell him what we want to have him save Christmas sir. I said nervously oh thank you. Santa said come ride in my sleigh. I said sure! So we went back ot the my house how do you know. So we or say all my friends kicked him and pushed him out of the door!

  Nick

  The Thief Who Stole Christmas

  Its Christmas, and I rush down the stairs to open my present but the revealed a surprise by noticing everything was gone! The Christmas tree was gone, the presents, and the stockings . SO I called my friends and guess what they said. All of there things were gone too! So then I told them “okay!” come to my house to begin operation save Christmas. And so that’s what we did. While we were outside looking for clues, I found a reindeer tracks. We folled them but when we got to my neighbors house, the trail split in to 12-15 parts. But how could that be? There is only 8 reindeer that pull santas sleigh. So we looked up where he was last seen. It said he was last seen right around the corner. So whats the point of riding my bike? We could just walk there. When we got there, the trail stopped. Which made perfect sense actually, because that’s where he was last…… Wait. I already told you that there was another trailthat looked like a robbers foot print. Suddenly, we saw a robber wearing santas clothes! We put him in jail and gave santa his clothes back and helped him restore Christmas and everyone.

  Aj Ramsey

  The Mystery Kidnapper

  It was Christmas morning, and I was rushing down the stairs, but when I got there, there was nothing. Nothing in the stockings, nothing under the tree, but the cookies and milk were left untouched. I know what happened, Santa was kidnapped; I told my friends, we did not tell our parents. We traveled to Florida, we found him in the airport; we grabbed him, delivered the presents, then took me home.

  Sophia Davis

  Saving Christmas

  On Christmas morning, there were no presents under the tree; there were holes in the stockings, and carpet pieces were inside the house. “Santa was here.” I said to myself, I must save Christmas, but first I have to call my friends Jillian and Olivia because I can’t do it alone. I will look at the GPS on the computer. Ding Dong! “I bet it’s my friends.” I say to myself.

  “Come in.” I said

  “Hi Sophia, it’s me, Jillian.” she responded.

  “I’m glad to see both of you because I came down stairs this morning, and there was nothing under the tree, and nothing in the stockings. We need to save Christmas because now nobody in the world has presents, not even me!”

  Me either.” said Jillian.

  “Or me.” Replied Olivia.

  “Let’s save Christmas! I know we can do it!” I said joyfully. “Let’s go!”

  “I’ll check all around the house.” Jillian said.

  “I will check the roof.” I replied. “Okay guys, I found Santa; he’s on top of Olivia’s house. Now, he’s going to Jillian’s house; now my street, he’s about to get to my house. I’m going to the attic to get to the roof. We have to help him.”

  We all went to the roof. “We’re here! It’s Santa, we will help you!”

  Brandon

  Once Brandon was coming down the stairs, there were no presents under the Christmas tree because there wasn’t a tree. Mom said, “We forgot to get our tree. Did you go to sleep last night?” Brandon said, “No, I was trying to tell you we didn’t get our Christmas tree.” “Check the chimney.” “I forgot to check there, Mom,” Brandon said. “I found him new was stuck in our chimney,” Mom said. “Let’s get him down right now, so you can get your present.” Then Santa said, “I am not Santa.” “I am Evil Santa.” He shoot laser the mom got near turned Evil Santa to good Santa Claus. “He is back,” said Brandon.

  Yahir

  Then I get a ladder and I see reindeer, but the sled was gone. I go to the park and find my friend Cole. We both look around and find the sled in the wire, but it is stuck. We pull it out and find Santa’s hat. We hide the sled and look for Santa. We see his footprints in the snow but the trail disappeared, but we saw a foot. We ran over to see and it was Santa.

  I ask Santa what happen and he said a rock hit the release button that let go the reindeer and the sled hit the river and I flew out. I started to walk and that was the time I realized my hat was missing. I gave the hat to Santa and I asked him if I can take the sled for Aspin and he said yes with a Ho Ho Ho. Then he let deliver the present. I was tired so I fell asleep. Then next day I open my presents.

  Madison

  Christmas is Missing

  It’s Christmas morning. Cristel goes downstairs, but everything is gone. Nothing is there, no presents. Cristel said, “Where is Santa? What if he got stuck in our chimney? We need to find him. Her parents said, “We can’t dear. What if he is in the North Pole?” “I don’t care. We need to find him for the kids who believe in him. What if the Grinch took him? “Don’t talk about him, people will hear.” “We have to find him.” Cristel made puppy eyes… “Ok.” “Yay!” “Where should we look first? The basement? The Grinch! I found him, the Grinch took him, get the shotgun.” “No! Please don’t shoot me, I won’t do it again, you swore, I swear.” Ok the end.

  Evelyn Scharer

  Who Stole Christmas

  I woke up on Christmas morning and ran downstairs to find nothing; no presents no nothing. I decided to call Addi and I asked her if hers were gone too, but she said no. Addi suggested we try to find clues around the house and on the roof we found some footprints. While we were on the roof we realized that the footprints were too small to belong to reindeer. Next to the footprints was a small red string, so we picked it up. We walked back to the living room and spotted a long green hair, then more, then a whole pile. We walked back outside and glanced up on the roof to meet eyes with the Grinch! He jumped down from the roof and ran after us. Addi called 911 and there was a police chase, but eventually they caught the Grinch, but there was no sign of Santa.

  Tessa Robertson

  Will Christmas be Lost Forever?

  Christmas morning came upon us quickly. I shoved my covers off and raced my sister down the stairs. I came down last and I expected Emily to squ
eal in excitement. All I heard was an ornament rolling around the room. “Where are all of our presents and decorations?” I asked Emily. “I…I…don’t know,” she replied.

  We ran to our parents’ bedroom. Where were they? I thought. My brother, Cale, stumbled down the stairs rubbing his eyes and yawning. “Hey guys! Where are our presents?” He questioned. “We don’t know, but we’ll get to the bottom of this!” Emily said firmly. We made a “game plan” and split up. Emily was going to ask our friends if their house was the same as ours. Cale was looking for Santa, and I was going to find clues. I got out our walkie-talkies and we were on our way.

  I was walking along a snowy path and heard a high pitch cry. I looked behind a snow drift and there was an elf sitting behind it! I squatted down next to him and asked, “Why are you crying?” He blew his nose with a tissue that he pulled out of his pocked and answered, “I can’t remember it all but I fell out of a white Crysler mini-van.” I thought, my mom and dad have a white Crystler mini-van. “My name is Bobby, what’s yours?” he asked. “Tessa, nice to meet you!” We shook hands and I asked if he wanted to help me and my siblings save Christmas. He took my had and we disappeared. We arrived at Sants’s sleigh next to my friend Evelyn’s house. We got in and he turned it on. “You will drive,” he said. “Wh-wh-what?!” I exclaimed. “You are driving,” he repeated. I took the wheel and I floored the gas petal. We got off at my Aunt Kasie’s house then we went inside the house and found Santa. Tied up against their couch. “Mmmmmmmm!!” I couldn’t understand him but I untied him and he took us to my parents. “Mom! Dad!” What are you doing?” Mom looked guilty. “We actually kidnapped Santa so we could get you what we wanted to get you. And if Santa got you a tablet you wouldn’t get to have family time.” “We forgive you, but let Santa do his job. Do you guys not realize that you let down kids all over the world?” They nodded. We had a group hug and we opened Santa’s presents.

  Emily Felz

  Santa I’m Coming to Save You

  One time I woke up on Christmas and ran to the living room only to find nothing. Everything was gone! I ran and picked up my dog. I went outside and I found Santa’s hat, so I wore it! There was on it that said, “If you want Santa Back, we’re at you’re school!” I don’t know who wrote that, but they seemed really dumb. I went to my school and the kidnappers were… The teletubies! So my dog bit them and they died so Christmas was saved!

  Shyanne

  Where’s Christmas?

  My name is Shyanne. It’s Christmas morning and my presents are gone and my tree and decorations are gone too. Santa’s cookies have not even been touched. “I’m going outside” I yelled, but there was no answer. “Bye!” I yelled again. “Oh well.” I ran outside. I saw a hat. “Oh, a clue.” I pulled up the hat and I saw an Elf! “Ahhhhhhhhh” we both yelled. “Hi, I’m Fred.” He said. “Ahhhh,” I yelled again. “What?” “Who are you?” I asked. “I just told you!” He said. “No, I mean where did you come from?” “Oh, that’s easy, the North Pole.” “Why are you here? What happened?” Where I came from used to be fun and happy and then Santa got sick and the only person who had a cure was evil elf so now Santa has to do whatever evil elf says.” “Wow, that’s sad.” “I know.” “Honey, wake up, it’s Christmas morning!”

  Addi Ward

  Jillian woke up. “I had the worst nightmare!” She ran down the stairs. “Nooooooooo” “It was gone!” Jillian ran to the corner and started to cry. “Where has Christmas gone” There was some white hairs on the floor along with scratches on the wall. Jillian was puzzled. She thought “hmmmm…” the burglar must have taken him away. She went to the bathroom and saw some red drips. She then turned her head to find wrapping paper moving across the ground. She went closer to the wrapping paper to find her dad wrapping presents. Jillian then began to ask her dad what he is doing. Her dad then began to explain that he was trying to not let her mother see the presents he was wrapping for her. Jillian then began to ask “then what explains the white hair?” Then her father reply’s with “well your mother wanted me to look nice for Christmas photos and well I shaved so that explains the white hair and there is blood because I was shaving in the dark”. “Then explain the tree” said Jillian. Her father then quickly replied and said “go to bed now”, as I turn to look at my watch to head to bed it was 12:57 and I thought maybe Santa hasn’t came yet.

  Zachary Craig

  The Return Of The Owl

  The tree and presents are gone and I saw an owl print on the roof and Santa’s hat. Then I found a elf on the bottom of my foot, and Santa gave me a IPad and I finished in time.

  Kevin Ranetez

  Santa and I

  We were dressing up like Santa, and we were going to Mexico to with Reindeers. My family and I were going to Mexico to buy Santa’s sleigh. We then bought the slay and saved the day, because Santa couldn’t deliver the presents.

  Taylor

  Santa, I, my dog, Thomas, and Rudolf were sleeping. Then we played games and eat again but this time we were eating tacos. Around 8 hours after we ate tacos we herd crying. Then santa gave us all presents to cheer everyone up. After all that Jack Frost came in and started to sing jolly old saint Nickolas, just like nickelback.
