I forgot to say this last chapter so I'll say it now, thanks to everyone who is following and favoriting this story, and especially thanks to PhGim.7 for his/her 'motivating' comment/PMs they helped me get these couple of chapters out!


EXT. NORTH POLE - DUSK FIERY GYPSY VIOLIN MUSIC as we move through clouds to reveal a MASSIVE ICE CANYON, and just around a bend, the incredible hidden fortress of NORTH, aka SANTA CLAUS.

Jaime and his friends gasped "It's Santa!" Jaime said happily

INT. NORTH'S WORKSHOP - DUSK We glimpse a familiar-looking RED JACKET and CAP with white trim on a coat hanger just as a pair of tongs SLAM a block of ice onto a stone work table- IN QUICK CUTS: A CHAINSAW shears the block in half, spraying ice.

North lifts up the chainsaw revealing a massive tatoo on his arm, the word NAUGHTY clearly visible. Three ELVES huddle in a doorway around a plate of cookies, each licking their own tasty morsel.

Jaime's jaw dropped "Santa has tats?" he said in shock his idol had tatoos!"

Everyone else (minus the Guardians, Jack, and Sky) where equally shocked

NORTH (O.S.) Still waiting for cookies!

As North crosses the background, the elves lower the cookies from their mouths, their faces frozen in fear. The elves duck out of the way as North launches himself across the floor on his rolling chair - CLOSE as his huge HAND gropes furiously among his WORK TOOLS, finally grabbing a miniature HAMMER. As North's humming along with his music, delicately CHISELING into the ice, we see a second arm sleeve tatoo, the word NICE clearly visible- His INTENSE BLUE EYE magnified in a JEWELER'S EYEPIECE - a delicate SCULPTING TOOL cuts fine details into the ice- His hands place the finished piece on a curving ICE TRACK: An ice LOCOMOTIVE. It belches ice vapor and chugs down the track, picking up speed-

"wow" Emma whispered

North grinned and said "The best part is up ahead, no?"

NORTH Yes!

North's hand grabs a cookie from a plate held up by the two Elves. One of the elves gives his cohort a look and points to the plate as it chews with a mouth full of food, to which it then unfurls its tongue and lets the half eaten morsels spill out onto the plate.

NORTH Ah, finally!

He takes a bite and leans toward the ice track.

"EW" most of the children said, disgust on their faces. No wonder Santa loved the cookies they left out. they weren't covered in Elf drool! Not that he seemed to notice anyway

He chuckles as the train hits a loop, and launches off a ramp into midair - then WINGS unfold - JET ENGINES sprout and ignite and the train lifts off the track- Suddenly, the DOOR is thrown open by one of North's concerned YETIS, sending the flying ice locomotive skidding across the floor in pieces.

YETI Arghbal...

NORTH Ach!

The yeti cries out covering his mouth in shame. North cries out, devastated. The yeti, equally emotional, lets out another whimper. North looks down at the broken toy and takes a moment to collect himself.

NORTH How many times have I told you to knock?

YETI Warga blarghgha!

NORTH What...? The Globe?

North leaps up - draws a HUGE SCIMITAR from its sheath and HEADS OUT-

"Santa has swords" "has swords?" the twins asked in sync

INT. NORTH'S GLOBE ROOM - CONTINUOUS

A sea of tiny BELLS on the heads of panicking elves part as North's huge boots stomp through.

NORTH Shoo with your pointy heads. Why are you always under boot?

He pushes his way past a couple of his YETI WORKERS - they're looking up in fear at -

THE GLOBE OF BELIEF Covered with LIGHTS blanketing the continents. But North notices that all at once, HUNDREDS OF LIGHTS suddenly go out.

NORTH What is this?

"What IS that?" Mrs. Overland asked

"That, would be the Globe of Belief. It will be explained more later in the movie" Sky said.

Now MORE LIGHTS, in GREATER NUMBERS, as if something is snuffing them out by the thousands. North's concern grows.

NORTH (TO YETI) Have you checked the axis? Is rotation balanced?

YETI (SHRUGS SHOULDERS) Wardle bawddrel.

Before the Yeti can finish, a WIND whips up from out of nowhere - North stares in outrage as a blanket of SWIRLING BLACK SAND, crawls over the lights, and shrouds the ENTIRE GLOBE in inky DARKNESS- The elves scurry in a panic, then all at once the BLACK SAND WHOOSHES UP off the Globe - rushes up through the ceiling as the remaining sand bursts into a puff of smoke and dissipates into the air - As the wind dies, the scattered pieces of debris settle to the ground, and the globes lights come back on, North whirls to see a HUGE SHADOW flash across the floors and curving walls of his fortress. It quickly disappears, leaving nothing but the distant ECHO of...LAUGHTER? North is frozen, looking up into the darkness, gravely:

NORTH Can it be? (then calls off) Dingle!

A group of elves step forward gleefully pointing to themselves, as if they're all "Dingle". The excitement quickly turns to confusion.

Jack frowned "How many of them are named Dingle?"

North shrugged "Who knows?"

"Didn't you name them?" Sky asked, turning to stare at the Russian man

he just shrugged again

NORTH Make preparations! We are going to have company.

North reaches out for a large EMERGENCY LEVER, TWISTS and PRESSES IT- The Globe pulses with ENERGY, which lights up and ZOOMS UP the AXIS SHAFT toward the roof-

EXT. NORTH POLE - CONTINUOUS From the tallest spire of North's fortress, NORTHERN LIGHT ENERGY radiates outward: for the first time in decades, the GUARDIANS' CALL GOES OUT!


There you guys go. hopefully more tomorrow, if not, expect a couple by Monday or Tuesday
