The arrival
With Rudolph gone the flight took quite some time.
Dasher had to lead and he had gotten rusty. They ended up first in Vegas Venezuela where the local Alcalde had them stoned as demons. Then Vegas Nebraska where Fat Eddy tried to hire them as a display for his post Xmas sale of used cars and farm equipment. But eventually they landed with a heart wrenching squeel of brakes on the rain swept roof of the "Ruptured Cowboy Cassino" at 3AM on the next to last day of the year.
"It never rains in Vegas!"
Nick fumed as he squished across the tar.
Grendel hopped out next followed by Wee and Wak.
Holly started tossing luggage at them from the sleigh. Everyone including the reindeer looked depressed. Somewhere a distant juke box was playing 'Stand By Your Man'...
"Why didn't we land at a shopping center Wee?"
Wee pointed a thumb at Grendal.
"He made the arrangements and Nick and Holly are really pissed."
Just then from the shadows behind the AC unit came the strangest laugh anyone had ever heard and Lily Shortenbum swaggered towards them.
OOC:
I may have taken a few liberties here but we're all together in Vegas at last!
