Santa Neji

Santa Neji

"Oh and I want a rocket ship! And a Ninja headband, just like Naruto's! And I want an action figure! Not a doll, they're different! Oh yeah! I also want a…"
I inwardly sighed as I looked at the thing--I mean child on my lap. Good god he was a knee hog. It had been 30 since he had started talking, and don't forget the picture. He had said most of the things at least five times, and the other children were getting rowdy. I correct myself, they were rowdy. Halfway through his sentence, a little girl yelled "HURRY UP!" The kid almost wet his pants as he flinched in shock. "…And I also don't want Moegi to kill me." He then hurriedly got off of my lap, looking for safety, conveniently hiding behind Tenten, who was handing out candy canes, trying to keep the children calm.

While she was trying to de-attach him from her leg, the little girl named 'Moegi' came, smiled sweetly for the camera and said in a serious voice, "I want Konohamaru to get nothing but coal for Christmas," she was obviously talking about the kid before her "and I only want one thing" She said with pride. "a real Kunai. None of the blunt ones will do, I want a real, sharp, steel kunai." She then got off of my leg, took a candy cane from Tenten with a polite "thankyou!" went behind the potted Christmas tree, and pulled Konohamaru from behind by the ear, and gave him a huge punch, sending him flying out of the shopping mall. As I stared in shock, another kid had climbed up onto my lap. Great. This one was about diaper age, not yet old enough to talk. At least it would be better than the other two—nope, I spoke too soon. The camera has yet to go off and it's already crying. Tenten rushed over and picked the child up. As she did she hissed; "Neji, can't you at least try to calm the kids down?!"

God she looked great in that outfit. Sure, it was one of those cheesy 'Helper-Elf' outfits, but the shirt was form fitting, and it was a belly top – so you could see her toned stomach from working out with me. I smirked, but almost immediately Tenten had returned with the happy child. Now it stunk! As I mentally plugged my nose and began to breathe through my mouth, the parents came and took their child, thanking Tenten for calming it down.

God. I looked at the mall clock. Only12:00! Another four hours of Hell…great. Ugh, and now Tenten saw me frowning…she's coming over. She's here….she's climbing up the stairs… Crapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrapcrap!! Oh god, our faces are getting closer…damn hormones! She's whispering in my ear now, oh god, oh god… "Get your act together! I don't care if you don't like this mission, I'm ready to kill Tsunade myself, but sit up straight and act like the Santa you're supposed to be! Tsunade just called, Naruto and Hinata should be here sooner than planned. Hinata talked Naruto into it! Get through about 5 more kids and you're done!"….she's still here…why isn't she walking away?! It's bad enough that I'm using all my strength to not blush but this…"But don't forget, you still have to listen to what I want…Santa Neji." She said as she giggled and walked down the stairs to get the next child. The last thing I remember hearing is…

"Miss Elf….Why is Santa dead?"
