Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto so please don't sue. And now, without further ado,

Let us unveil your Naruto Christmas fairy tale!

"Twas the first day of December in Konoha village. While all the good shinobis and kunoichis were sleeping safe and sound,

Our foxy hero was wide awake ready to chow down.

You see, Naruto-kun wanted to take off on a full sprint.

To get into the holiday spirit, he wanted to enjoy his ramen flavored peppermint.

However, before he could dig in,

Naruto was interrupted by a fellow Leaf Nin.

"Uzumaki Naruto, your presence is needed at Tsunade-sama's office post haste!"

"But I didn't even get a little taste!"

When our main character arrived, he realized he was not the only one there.

Inside Tsunade's office were the rest of the Genin 9, the Sand Siblings, Tenten, Lee, and Neji with his majestic flowing hair.

"Good, good. I'm so glad to see everyone here." Tsunade had cheered.

Everyone could smell the alcohol that her breath stunk.

They all shared the same thought, "Our Hokage is drunk."

Neji had decided to take authority to ask, "Hokage-sama, what is the reason you called us to this place?"

Tsunade gleefully replied, "Alright, I'll cut to the chase!"

The room soon entered into a dramatic pause.

"Are all of you familiar with the man, Santa Claus?"

Our young Uchiha had blatantly shouted, "You mean the old fart who dresses up in a red suit so little children will sit in his lap?"

Shikarmaru had followed, "What does a fictional character have to do with disrupting my nap?"

"Oh trust me; Santa Claus is as real as any man,

But, right now, we have a situation on our hands.

Every year, a group of leaf shinobis check on Kris Kringle's progress every night.

But this year, our fellow leaf ninja has disappeared from sight.

We are unable to determine how long he has been gone from now.

Nor do we know why or how.

While our top ninjas research the case of why our jolly shinobi has disappeared from the blue,

The top 15 genins we know will have to assume his duties to save Christmas. Can I count on all of you?"

Naruto pumped his fist in the air and exclaimed, "I promise you I will save Christmas day!

After all, I can't let some holiday-stealing jerk have his way!"

Everyone had agreed with their hyperactive fellow shinobi as Sakura dutifully asked, "Okay Hokage-sama! What is the plan?"

Only to have Shikamaru complain, "This is going to be such a drag, man."

"In order to know the Christmas wishes of the children, Neji, Sasuke, Gaara, and Shikamaru will pose as Santas at various malls.

While Kankuro, Kiba, Lee, and Shino will create toys such as trains, ships, and dolls.

Naruto, Sakura, Ino, and Choji will determine who has been naughty and nice.

Naruto, be sure to check that list twice!

As for those who are unable to attend the malls,

Hinata, Tenten, Temari will handle the letters of the children redirected from the Land of Snow to my personal training halls.

Now that you have everything you need to know,

And don't you dare mess this up Naruto, now GO!
