Chapter one:
Kevin isn't like the head Santa. He's definitely not fat and he doesn't have the white beard. He is however the Santa stationed for North America and he doesn't mind that. He is a Santa with a slim good looking body, ginger hair with three hair pieces that stand out by his forehead even after taking off his trademark red and black hat he wears backwards and dashing green eyes. He wears a red trench coat that is never done up as well as a dark brown belt around his waist through his trench coats belt loops. He has it so the belt keeps especially the bottom part open so it's back to about midway back on his legs. His trench coat has white cuffs, white fluffy lining on the bottom as well as on the hood, three yellow buttons on the top of the jacket above the belt and a patch on each arm just below the shoulder.
The patches are identical and are red with a Christmas tree in the middle along with a white line on the top and bottom of the square patches. These patches are a symbol that he is a Santa as every Santa has them as proof of their status.
He is also wearing a mahogany shirt under his coat that has a slight turtle neck and dark grey tight pants like skinny jeans as well as his black no heel boots with a folded over top making the boots almost reach his knees. His boots have the bottoms that are dusted grey from use. He knows that Christmas is coming up which means he'll have the work to getting all the presents to everywhere in North America on time. He heads to go check on how everything is going as he does every once in a while but he usually leaves it to his head elf.
"Ah hello Kevin." A gentle voice greets getting Kevin to turn to him.
There stands the head elf that Kevin elected himself.
The head elf is named Eddward but he goes by Edd or more usually Double Dee. His eyes are a beautiful shade of blue, the usual pointy elf ears and three black strands of hair stick out from the back of his hat. His own trademark hat is a black beanie with white stripes and he is wearing the mandatory elf outfit.
The mandatory elf outfit consists of a red and green striped scarf preferably wrapped around the neck once or twice with the ends hanging so one is hanging on the back with the other on the front. It also consists of a long sleeved green shirt that reaches to close to half way down the hips with the bottom of the shirt having the white fluff along with the shirt also having the white cuffs as well as that the fact that the sleeves are light green with the rest being a dark green. It has dark green shorts that usually almost reach to the knees, red and white stripped stockings and dark green no heel shoes with the top lined with white fluff.
Kevin smiles. "Hello there Double Dee." He greets. "I can safely bet everything is going well." He adds.
"Yup. I made sure to keep everyone on track and everything is going at a good pace. We will be ready on time." Double Dee nods clutching a clipboard to his chest. "And I've made sure to make sure that the list is all good." He adds.
"Good." Kevin nods. "Then when the time comes that leaves me with the hard part of going around to deliver everything up to me." He says to himself. "That's good. I always know that I can trust you. My precious head elf."
Edd gives a smile especially as Kevin places a gentle hand on his own.
"Anything else I should be aware of?" Kevin asks.
"Nope. It seems everything else is going well." Edd says with a slight shake of his head. "Even your bike is still in mint condition and running smoothly."
Kevin doesn't use reindeer to deliver presents instead he has a red sleigh like structure carrying the present pulled by a motorbike.
Every Santa has their own way of getting around with only the head Santa using reindeer.
But something that all of them share is the fact that their stuff uses Christmas magic generated from Christmas spirit from around the country they are stationed at.
This includes the ability to remain quiet when they are out and about, a special bag for presents that will make sure that the right presents are grabbed when needed and of course as the fuel to get around.
This is something that only the Santa's can use while everyone a part of any other holiday must find their own magic. And the head Santa was the first one who found how to use such power back when the world was small enough that he could do it on his own until the world expanded and got more populated.
Once that happened the head Santa created the system that is in place now in place with one Santa for each country in order to get everything done on time.
Each Santa was trained by the head Santa since they were young by using the extra Christmas magic to keep them from being seen when in training so each Santa is completely prepared to take on the duties that will be required of them. As well as that all Santa's were orphans, abandoned children and young children who never truly had a home or a family for other reasons.
The head Santa would send different elves in disguise to look for young children and even infants to grow up to take on the duties of being Santa even starting at a young age. The head Santa decided to do this to ensure that each Santa that would be stationed at each country would grow up in the north pole with Santa, the elves and even the reindeer.
If the children grew up for at least most of their life in the north pole would be more likely to not mess their job up when on their own or even give up on it entirely.
"Good." Kevin nods in approval. "Everything is going as smoothly as I expected." He turns and heads away to let his head elf do his work but pauses then turns back to Edd. "Oh and Double Dee I expect to see you there to see me off."
"Don't worry about that." Edd assures him. "That is always put in the schedule."
Kevin grins at this then heads off to take a look at the times that night should be coming in the areas he will be going to. He is very very familiar to the route thanks to his training when it was decided he would take North America. He used to have someone who took care of everything below the USA however that Santa had an accident when he ignored his elves who were trying to make sure that he would have enough Christmas magic to complete his route so he left with less fuel in a test run the day before because he believed he didn't have time to wait and enough fuel to do the test run….. In which he fell from the sky and ended up dying because of the crash since only the head Santa is immortal so when this happened Kevin was given the whole North America to have to complete. He closes his eyes as he can almost remember getting the news that he would have to take over the duties of the Santa that had died though the head Santa did that run for the one year before training Kevin to complete the whole North America as his route and the elves were transferred to Kevin's station to help with the new work load.
That was a long year for Kevin due to having to now learn another route.
"I wonder if they plan to keep me doing that forever or if they are looking for a replacement." Kevin whispers to himself but for the time being he highly doubts that there will be a replacement since he handles it all rather well. He shakes his head and gets back to concentrating on his work since he needs to plan when he will be leaving in order to finish his entire route.
Then the night that Kevin would have to go out came around in which Kevin makes sure he's all set while the bike and sled with the giant bag are being put out front where Kevin often takes off as well as lands.
"Let's do this." Kevin says to his reflection with a smile before heading out grabbing his goggles on the way out. His goggles have black lining and strap while the frame and lenses are clear.
They are specially made that way to allow him to navigate through storms without getting any wind, snow, rain, hail and the such into his eyes when moving around especially in the air.
Kevin feels ready to do his route.
