It was December 23rd, two days before Christmas Eve, and the Greenburg of Philadelphia was hosting the 60th Annual Pennslvania Friendly Scout Christmas Sleepover. Usually around this time, Friendly Scouts from all over came to the event to help the needy and they stayed there until December 26th. Estrella and Rylie were also there for the momentous occasion, because older Friendly Scouts were allowed to bring guests at that time.

In their hotel room, the Klue Queens were finishing unpacking while Kirby was going over a few Christmas carol notes. He was about to sing the Beach Boys' "Little Saint Nick" when Leah stuffed his face with some fruitcake she made herself.

"Kirby," Leah said as she covered his mouth with Christmas Friendly Scout cookies, "maybe it's best if you don't do any Christmas caroling."

"There are a lot of things to do for this year's Friendly Scout Christmas Sleepover," beamed Rylie. "A dance lesson by former Lititz Heights choreographer Stuart Stephenson, a magic show by the Huerta Brothers, and organizing the dinner for the Norwegian immigrants."

Meanwhile, Fayth and Leelannee were walking down towards a Norwegian-styled building when they spotted a small snowman wanting a hug. Unfortunately, the patrons found it a little weird. Feeling bad for the snowman's neglect, Leelannee went up to him. "Hewwo," she greeted. "Awe youw a weal snowman?"

The snowman nodded his head. "Hello there," he greeted. "I'm Olaf, and I like warm hugs."

"How cute?" cooed Leelannee. "I wemembew you fwon 'Frozen'."

"Are you two Fayth and Leelannee Hester?" Olaf guessed. "Sisters of the one and only Kaylin Hester of the Kirby Klue Queens."

Fayth was petrified that he knew who they were. "Wait until I tell everyone that you took a bunch of frogs to the castle with a broken horn!"

"Fayth," Leelannee said, "wemembew what Uncle Wusty said about pwaying tattwetawe."

Not wanting to ruin the trip, Fayth decided to mind her own business.

"Ho, ho, ho!" shouted the fake Santa. "Please donate to the Varme Klemmer Home for Norwegian Immigrants now!"

Olaf explained that the people in the home were going to the Greenburg this year so that the Friendly Scouts can give them a wonderful Christmas. For the last two hours, Olaf had watched the toy box fill up. However, when he looked inside, it was empty. "Looks like the toys were given to the children early."

The fake Santa looked inside and could tell that the toys weren't donated early - they were stolen.

Ten minutes later, Fayth, Leelannee, and Olaf rushed to The Greenburg Hotel to warn the Klue Queens about the toy theft. After explaining everything to them, it meant another mystery. "This sure is a bummer, Freaky Friends," stated Leeannee. "Like, the children are so going to be disappointed when they find out."

"We better find those toys before Christmas Day," Rylie said, "Good thing I celebrated Hannukah already."

"Is everything alright?" asked a middle-aged man in a green and red Friendly Scout outfit. "Ray McLure, den father of the Clifton Creeks Division."

"Your the guy who wants to bring the VKHNI people here," Leah recalled. "Have you ever been there before Christmas."

"All the time as a kid," Mr. McLure recalled. "In fact, I remember one time where Atticus took them to his kitchen shop for a lecture on Norwegian cooking. Those were the days."

After he left to check on the preparations, Leah asked Olaf if he saw anything suspiscious before the theft. "What I remember is someone wearing a green Christmas costume giving me cookies," Olaf explained. "After I finished them, everything was the same."

Now all they needed now were the suspects.

Suspects

The Huerta Brothers (magician duo)- Magicians don't usually tell their secrets.

Ray McLure (Friendly Scout den father of the Clifton Creeks Division) - His idea to bring people from VKHNI to the Greenburg.

Stuart Stephenson (Former Lititz Heights Friendly Scout, now ballroom dance instructor at Greenburg Hotel) - Hated donating things to charity.

By the empty outdoor pool, Rylie and Tania were going around for clues when they came across two Latino men practicing their magical act. When they saw Rylie and Tania, they thought they were the new assistants they hired over the phone.

After getting into a little trouble with a few magic tricks, Rylie pushed them out of the way in frustration. "We're not magician assistants," she corrected as she helped Tania out. "We're members of the Kirby Klue Queens."

"Lo siento," Rocco replied. "It's just our old one quit to become a record producer in North Philly and we don't have much time left."

After a few minutes of interviewing, Rocco and Santana explained that they wouldn't steal a donation box. "As ninos," Santana explained, "we were very poor and couldn't afford the latest video games, computer CDs, nor action figures. So we took it upon ourselves to learn magic. If you ever get those toys back, we'll pop them up for you."

"Thanks for the interview," Tania replied, "and Feliz Navidad."

On the top floor, Kaylin and Leah were going around disguised as Christmas Carolers. Kirby wanted to sing, but Leah wouldn't let him. When they found Stuart's room, they sang "I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day" much to Stuart's frustration. "I'm not going to give to a bunch of tone-deaf dunderheads like you two," he replied rudely. "I've an important dance lesson to get to."

Observing carefully, Leah could see some green cloth under his jacket.

"But we just wanted to donate to charity," Kaylin begged as an annoyed Stuart slammed the door.

Petrified by his rudeness, they decided to go look for Fayth, Leelannee, and Olaf.

Paige and Estrella Swinger were going around the hotel when they saw a door that led them to a storage room. Inside, Paige found a box of lost sweaters. "Like, dig these sweaters. It's a shame that polar regions are melting due to to constant use of thermostats and electrical chargers. But we can fix that by using chargers less often and wearing sweaters in the winter instead of turning up the heat."

Smelling through the boxes, Swinger found one that said "Extra Brooms." Remembering the old broom-closet trick. He opened the box with a clamp and revealed all the stolen toys.

"Stick it to the Monkey Man," chuckled Paige as someone closed the door behind them, leaving them locked.

"Get us out of here!" Estrella shouted.

"Like, this can't be good," Paige replied. "How are we going to get out?"

Seeing a '90s tape recorder, Paige got an idea on how they could get someone to get them out. After she placed Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas Is You." She placed it by the door, hoping that someone would hear it.

Outside the storage room, Rylie and Tania were both feeling annoyed by the whole magician assistant mistake. Using her locksmith skills, Tania freed Paige and Estrella. "You know Swinger could just use his tail to escape."

"Si," Estrella agreed, "but he was too distracted by the stolen toys."

After explaining that someone locked them in, Tania recalled that usually employees had the keys to all the rooms and not hotel guests like the Huerta Brothers and Mr. McLure. That meant there was only one person who would steal the toys.

In the ballroom, Fayth and Leelannee were having a small dance lesson with Stuart while Olaf watched them in the corner. "It was nicey of Owaf to watchey us dance," Leelannee whispered.

"And don't worry about Olaf," Fayth explained to her sister quietly. "Stuart thinks Olaf's just a costume."

Leah and Kaylin came into the ballroom to see if Kaylin's sisters were okay. After Fayth, Leelannee and Olaf hugged them, Kaylin remembered something, "Wait a second." she said, "Didn't you say you saw someone in a green costume?"

"Yeah," Olaf recalled, "just like what Stuart is wearing."

"When we saw the Huerta Brothers and Mr. McLure earlier," recalled Leah. "They were wearing red."

"Uh-oh," Stuart said nervously as he tried to escape.

Seeing a Christmas bell up to, Olaf got an idea. "Kirby, suck up your socks!" he shouted as the girls chuckled.

"What he means is," Leah corrected, "suck it up!"

With one gulp of the bells, Kirby becomes Bell Kirby. Playing Feliz Navidad on the bells, he started to annoy Stuart nonstop.

"Stop it!" Stuart shouted. "I have sensitive ears!"

Estrella, Rylie, Tania, Paige, and Swinger arrived in the nick of time to stop Stuart. "Go, snowman, go!" shouted Paige.

Stuart tried to escape, but a bunch of Christmas themed hankies trapped him and made him land in the punch bowl. It was the Huerta Brothers, who came to help the Klue Queens out.

After the two brothers carried Stuart by the arms, the Klue Queens were starting to understand that Stuart is the thief. "When we mention the word donation," Kaylin recalled. "You don't seem to take it very well."

"And you were the only one with keys to every room at the Greenburg in Philadelphia," Estrella recalled. "Guests don't get private keys."

"Let's not forget you're the only who wore green while the rest wore red," Fayth finished.

"All I wanted is to order room service," Stuart explained. "Unfortunately, baked Alaskas here are expensive. So maybe, stealing some charity money, open a fake toy stand at the flea market and selling them all will give me enough money to get them."

"Mother was right about charity work," Rocco said to Santana. "They always leave us greedy people penniless."

"Gracias for your help, Huerta Brothers," Estrella smiled. "Now perhaps serving food to the Norwegian guests would make a magnifico punishment for you."

Stuart groaned about his punishment.

Two days later was Christmas day, everyone was excited. The Friendly Scouts were playing and having a good time with the Norwegian immigrant children while Stuart was force to serve the guests some hot cocoa and Christmas cookies. Ray supervised him, so he could pay debt to society. After watching the Huerta Brothers perform, Estrella saw that something was missing. "Has anyone seen Kirby?" she asked.

"Poyo, poyo, poyo!" shouted Kirby in the tone of Santa Claus.

Kirby and Olaf were coming in while giving out presents to the kids. After giving out a pair of '90s Darby dolls to Fayth and Leelannee, they gave some presents to the Klue Queens.

"Kirby mentioned that you went into the storage room," Olaf explained. "And if you must know, I'm fluent in Kirby."

Inside, they saw a bunch of familiar items from two days before. "It's the sweaters we found in the storage room," Estrella recalled.

"Of course," Olaf replied. "Can't see good sweaters in the dump."

They were so delighted by the sweaters, they gave the two critters a warm hug.

The End.
