Advent Calendar #4 : Santa's Little Helper, Part 3

(Still dedicated to the loveliest ChatMom <3)

Morgan and Rudolph were on their way

To the North Pole, when suddenly

A snowstorm arrived right in their direction,

And they had to stop for a night.

They found a little cave in the mountains

Where there seemed to be no one ;

Rudolph brought some sticks fallen from a tree

And Morgan helped him light up a fire.

As the two newly-made friends

Decided to fall asleep to restore some energy,

Morgan saw in the corner of their eye

A shadow coming behind them.

"What is that ? they asked the reindeer,

Afraid it might be someone out there to chase them.

Is it bad ? Is it one of your friends ?"

Rudolph was too paralysed to answer.

In the end, what seemed to be a threat wasn't ;

And a little polar bear arrived, flailing around with food.

"Oh ? Who are you ? the animal enquired.

What are you doing here ?"

"My name's Morgan, the frog introduced themselves,

And here's my friend, Rudolph.

Sorry if we entered your place without your permission,

But the snowstorm didn't give us any other choice."

"Oh, feel free to stay here as long as you want !

I'm just a little surprised to see a reindeer and a frog

At this time of the year, when the frogs have gone south

And the reindeers are on their way to the Christmas camp."

"We're a little late, but we're on our way, Rudolph explained,

And Morgan is coming with me to work for Santa.

Would you know a way to get to the North Pole faster ?"

The polar bear thought about it a little bit, then brought a map.

"I think I know a way... I have friends who could buy you a vehicle,

Quickly and safely, and help you reach the north.

But, you have to promise me one thing." "What is it ?" Morgan asked excitedly.

"You have to bring me with you."
