Chapter Four-Roll Call
High on a Mount Denali glacier, deep in a dark crevasse, Santa crawled out from under the green sleigh. He checked himself for broken bones and brushed snow off his suit. He started a roll call.
“Rudolph.”
“Here.”
“Donner”
“Here,” answered Donner weakly.
“Blitzen.”
“I’m here,” he said, “My antlers are tangled in the runner.”
“Dasher.”
“Here, but my leg is broken.”
“Prancer.”
“I’m here, scrapped and bleeding.”
“Comet,— Comet, does anyone see Comet?” asked Santa.
“I can feel him,” said Cupid, “He’s out cold.”
“How about Dancer and Vixen?”
“We are okay,” they answered in unison.
“Donner, please help Comet.”
“Dancer, Vixen, see if you can help Prancer.”
“Rudolph, turn your nose on.”
“Oh great, my light doesn’t work, now what do we do?”
“Try harder,” said Santa, “we need that light.”
“How will we find our way home without your light?”
“Why did we crash?” Asked Cupid.
“Something exploded right next to us,” answered Rudolph, “the shock forced me into a downward spin, then my light went out. We broke through the clouds, and saw the mountain, but it was too late. We landed fast, and slid into this crevasse.”
“Comet is waking up,” said Prancer.
“Where am I?”
“We crashed into a crevasse,” answered Prancer.
“Let’s put our heads together and see how we are going to get home,” said Santa.
“Does the Sentra-vision work?” asked Rudolph. “We can call Jasper. He can find where our signal is coming from.”
“I checked it before, it doesn’t work either,” said Santa, “See if you can repair it.”
“Blitzen, splint Dasher’s leg. Dancer and Cupid, explore the crevasse in that direction. see if we can climb out of here.”
“Donner and Vixen, explore the opposite direction. I’ll help Rudolph with the Sentra-vision.”
