Dear Diary,

It's almost midnight, Christmas Eve. I will get proof of him. I even took down some of the security for him to come. I did all the rituals. Fresh-baked cookies and milk. Carrots and celery for the reindeer and a clean chimney. The last one I did so he wouldn't track dirt into the living room.

The oddest thing was no one was going to stop me. Brainiac said it was illogical for a man to visit billion of houses in one night. But that was it. All the other adults either encouraged it or didn't say a thing.

And Daddy, well he's still in prison. He gave me a letter that said he'll try to come home as soon as possible, but with him I don't know what'll happen. Last Christmas he wasn't here either. He was somewhere.

Well earlier the adults were here, fretting over me. Just because I asked if Santa Claus was real or not. They kept telling me stories of what he did and some glowing reindeer. Eh, I do not believe things until I see it. For example, I definitely know aliens are real. Brainiac is an alien. I met a red-faced guy who's an alien. There is that superhero with the blue cape who's an alien. Therefore aliens exist.

Even if no one else believes, I will know it's true! I'll be like that guy who saw the Yeti and everybody thought he was crazy.

Okay, I know everybody will worry, I mean all the adults were talking to one another and they looked really worried.

I guess the real reason for all of this is to actually have Daddy be here on Christmas unlike the other ones.

Hold a second there is sound coming down the chimney. I got the camera ready.

There's feet! A guy drops down, big stomach and white beard. I crouch down waiting for him to turn away and..

"Gotcha!" He turned around like a deer in headlights and then I saw his face.

"Uncle Harvey?" It seriously was him. I mean the guy's face was half-burned off and well it just looks like him.

"Ah, no..Ho Ho Ho. I am Santa Claus." He said nervously.

"But you look just like him!" I told him.

"No, I can change my appearances so I won't be arrested."

"I see."

There was sound in the background and another person dropped down.

"Another one!" I shouted as the person I saw was in the Santa suit.

The Uncle Harvey look-a-like shouted out. "Hey, who are you!"

"I'm Santa!" This one said.

"No, I am!"

They both started yelling at each other.

*Ding Dong*

I went and opened the door and there was a buff Santa Claus. Okay something strange is going on.

"Ho Ho Ho." He laughed heartily. "I am Santa Claus."

I looked at him in disbelief and showed him inside. He saw the other two and he joined the fight.

A couple of minutes passed and two more Santa Clauses came. One was very chilly and the other said she was Mrs. Claus.

Oi, they got into an argument. I asked Mrs. Claus which one was real. She said she didn't know because they all looked similar.

They kept fighting until I screamed "Be quiet or I'll get the hyenas!"

They became quiet. "Okay I don't really care if you aren't the real Santa. I just want my Daddy! Now take off the costumes the gig is up."

They looked at me and sighed. "Sorry Luna. We tried."

They slowly took off the fake beards and and that hats. I knew it Uncle Harvey. It was all the adults in my life except Grandpa who's with his family and Daddy of course. Oh this is disappointing. Oh tears are coming, I can't stop them.

Aunt Ivy picked me up and tried to comfort me as I sobbed into her jacket.

The clock chimed through the house marking midnight. I sobbed harder, and then the house shook.

"Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas!" The voice sounded familiar and I stopped crying and ran outside.

It was Daddy on the Christmas tree rocket.

"Daddy!" I ran towards him and tackled hugged him. "I missed you!"

"Ah my sweet Luna, how you shine in the snow." He smiled and hugged me tight. "Why is everyone in a Santa suit?"

"Hmm." They started to be nervous. "A Santa party!" They took a deep breath.

"Cool, and Merry Christmas." He kissed me on the cheek and then we went inside and had a party.

We also sang a carol.

Jingle Bell

Batman smells

Robin laid an egg

The Batmobile has lost a wheel

And the Joker got a AWAYYYY!

MerryChristmas. Happy Hanukah and Kwanza and whatever holiday you celebrate.
