It's CLICmas! So I can guess that nearly everyone is excited for Christmas, but what about Santa and what about if he was evil...? So for the 18th day of CLICmas I'm going to tell you the story of a little boy called Jimmy who is only eight-years-old when he meets an evil Santa...
Little children had been lining up for hours to have their chance to see the jolly old man in red. "Mummy, I'm tired and I'm hungry. Can we please go to have some food?" Little Jimmy asked his mum after 1:35 minutes of being in the line that didn’t seem to move. "Look in the shop by there, they have a Santa with no line!" Jimmy hinted to his mum that we wanted to see the other Santa. "Look Jimmy, we're nearly there," Jimmy’s mum said softly.
Within the next 20 minutes Jimmy was sat on Santa’s lap telling him what he wanted for Christmas, "... and I want a puppy and an Action Man and a dinosaur and a ... " and with out letting Jimmy finish his long list of things he wanted for Christmas, the Santa jumped in. "Sorry little boy but I'm off the job now, come back tomorrow and I'll be here from 11 to 3," and off walked the jolly old man in red.
"Aww now don’t worry love, I'll take go to see the Santa down there," Jimmy’s mum said as he started to cry. Jimmy ran off happy and before the second Santa could even ask him his name, he was sat on his lap telling him what he wanted for Christmas, "... and I want a puppy and an Action Man and a dinosaur and a..." the Santa looked at the boy with wide eyes. "I want doesn't get!" The Santa screamed in Jimmy's face, "maybe if you showed people more respect and didn't say 'I want' you would get what you wanted! I hope you have a lump of coal in your stocking!"
Jimmy ran out off the shop to find his mother who was looking in the window. "Looks like you had fun, what did Santa say?" Jimmy looked at his mother, but didn't say a word. "Well OK then... let's go home its nearly six o'clock and tomorrow is Christmas so it's best to go to bed early." After arriving home, Jimmy ran upstairs and hid his stocking, hoping that Santa wouldn't find it and leave him with coal.
Jimmy found it hard to sleep; he rolled around in bed all night and kept checking his stocking, making sure there was no coal. When Jimmy final fell asleep, he dreamt of Santa looking though his list of children's names and coming to his name and thinking "Oh no no no this boy shouldn’t be on this list!" and saw his name disappear from the paper. "Wakey wakey, it's Christmas!" Jimmy’s mum said as she entered his room, Jimmy went into his stocking to find nothing there and the same for under the tree! Jimmy began to fell dizzy and suddenly fainted! When he started to come round he hears a familiar song, "Christmas time, mistletoe and wine," he looks up and looks at his computer screen. He was writing an article for CLIC about an evil Santa he met when he was little. "Come on Jimmy, its Christmas eve! Nan's down stairs, waiting to see you!"
"Umm yeah, I'm sorry, I fell asleep."
After clicking the submit button, Jimmy went downstairs to enjoy a happy Christmas Eve with his family.
