Nightly Recon Report (CONTINUED):

Commando Team : Delta Bravo 4 (Dancer, Donder, Blitzen and Comet)
Location: MCDS - Abandon Reindeer Barn
Subject: Elven Barn Intruder Interrogation

4:30 Hours
In a synchronized assault, Delta Bravo 4 team swarms the hay loft from all sides and pulls a young, freezing elf from beneath a pile of hay. Just then, the team heard voices in the lower part of the barn and the lights came on.

04:32 Hours
Comet peered over the edge of the hayloft and identified several elves. All were from MCDS security and were lead by Jean Claud Boof. The decision was quickly made to depart via the hay-loading door and take the hiding elf with us. Elf was covered in an old feed bag and carried on reindeer back by Blitzen to RRHQ. He clearly seemed terrified of being caught by MCDS security.

06:10 Hours -
Interrogation of Elf named "Just'l Elf"
Questioned by: Commander Rudolph, Major Dancer and Vixen.

Rudolph: What where you doing in the barn for the last three nights:

Just'l: I was just out for a walk.

Rudolph: and you decided to walk under a pile of hay and stay there for 6 hours!

Just'l: I was cold - I thought that I could get warmed up, you know?

Dancer: That's a steaming pile of Walrus droppings and you know it. What were your really doing.

Vixen: You might as well tell us. We have ways to get it out of you, one way or another.

Just'l: (looking very nervous) - You don't work for MCDS anymore, so OK, I'll tell you. Since Santa was killed, things have really gone crazy. Goft is power-hungry and nuts about costs. Everybody knows he's been trying to bump kids from Nice to Naughty to save money. You remember how it used to be? Now you get put on naughty for not eating enough broccoli, or not bushing your teeth for the full five minutes. I heard of one kid that got bumped because he accidentally wet the bed during a big thunderstorm and he was only two!!

Boofie, you know Jean Claud Boof, he used to be a normal elf, but now he's turned the security department into Storm Troopers from the Deluxe Darth Vader Taking Playset. They watch everything and every body. You need one of these little electronic thingies (pulls a pass card with his picture out of his pocket) just to get anywhere in the "Complex." Remember when it just used to be "the workshop." Now it's "The Complex" and "Production" and elves live in "the Barracks."

Just'L (continuing): I just couldn't take it, you know. A couple of nights ago I went for a walk outside, which is the only place you don't need to stupid key for and ended up at the barn. Technically, the barn is off limits and I hear they are going to sell the place, but I wanted somewhere to go to be alone.

You remember I used to hang out there sometimes, back in the old days. Ask Dasher, he'll tell you - he knows me. Anyway, I'm there right and it's like totally dark and I hear this ringing from the phone, which is in the tack room. I go in and it's still ringing, so I pick it up but I don't say anything - you know, I wait for them to talk first so I can see who it is:

Rudolph: And did they say anything?

Just'l: There was a voice that came on the phone. It was real quiet - you know, a whisper. The voice said, "Hello - is anybody there?"

Vixen: And that was it?

Just'l: No. A second later another voice came on and said something like "Stop him- he's got a cell phone." After that the line went dead. I've been going back to the barn every night in case they call again.

Dancer: Do you know who's voice was on the phone.

Justl: That's the funny part. It sounded like ..... I know this is crazy, but is sounded like .... you know.... Santa.
