Little Brother, Big Trouble: A Christmas Adventure Page #3

fault and I'm going to get him back.

I can't possibly allow that!

It's far too dangerous.

There has to be another way. Firstly,

we return and raise the alarm.

Secondly, we elect a search party

leader. Fourthly... or thirdly?

Hey, Nutboy. - Oh no.

He'll never find Jonni on his own.

Where are you taking me?

- Save your breath, Niko.

- I'm Jonni.

- Sure you are!

Jonni! Jonni!

Jonni!

Wilma, I want you to go

to Santa's Fell and tell Prancer.

Saga, I need you to stay here in case

Niko or Jonni return. - And you?

I'm going after Niko. But first,

Lenni and Oona have to be told.

I find honesty is

always the best policy.

It's best you let me do the talking.

- Hey, you're back early.

Where are the boys?

- Boys? What boys?

Jonni and Niko.

- Oh! Jonni and Niko. Right.

The boys went out to play and then

huge flying... - I should have known!

Prancer's taken them up to see

Santa's fell, hasn't he?

As soon as I've turned my back,

Niko's disappeared with his father.

Hey! Come on! Hold on a sec!

What? It went well.

Why didn't you say something?

Well excuse me, Mister

"honesty is always the best policy"!

I thought you said it was best

if you do the talking. - Stop it.

It doesn't matter who tells them

but Lenni and Oona need to know.

Need to know what?

- Hello...?

- Who said that?

Where am I?

- Don't worry, you're perfectly safe.

I've been keeping a watchful eye

on you, young lady. - Young lady?

What? I mean, young buck.

- Can you see okay?

I could count every green hair

on your head from fifty paces.

That's moss. You're talking

to a rock. - I knew that.

Thanks for your help, sir,

but I have to fly.

A flyer, eh? I could tell you

a few stories about flyers.

Thanks but I've got to go. A little

reindeer was taken by the eagles.

You're not going to the Eagles Domain

by yourself, are you? - Where?

That's where the eagles take all

their prey. Very dangerous indeed.

You need to go to the Flying Forces.

- I can't tell them!

I mean, it's so close to Christmas,

they're probably too busy.

Hey, maybe you could take me?

- To the Eagles Domain? Gracious no.

My adventuring days are long over.

- But... but I really need your help.

I'm sorry, but I live out here

on my own for a reason.

I got tired of getting tangled up in

the world's problems many years ago.

The only friends I want

are the rocks and the trees.

Out here I don't need anybody

and nobody needs me.

There's a little reindeer boy who

needs me, with or without your help.

Stop looking at me like that.

Fine, go ahead then, look at me all

you want! But it's not going to work.

You really think I'm going to let

old rocks tell me what to do?

Alright, alright, I'll go!
