Christmas Post

Well, today has been incredible. I got an iPod nano!! And, even though we had trouble loading the songs, it worked out. I also got The Beatles's #1 hits CD! And since I was down south I got to go on a 2 mile run, and I feel great. First real exertion I've had since the weather got cold! And now to Sagery! I just wanted to write a story, so I think I'll do something Christmasy, and, just to make it interesting, I'm going to listen to my music while I write.


Once upon a time there was a man. But this wasn't just any ordinary man! He was a rich man. He had everything. Power. Wealth. Fame. Power. However, he still wasn't happy. He was actually a rather dismal fellow, who hated Christmas. It always made him feel insufficient, because, somehow, so many people who had so much less than he did seemes to have something that he didn't at this time of year. It made him mad. And to be frank, when he was mad, he was not a very nice person. Of course, he wasn't a very nice person anyways, but that is beside the point.

So anyways, it happened that one week before Christmas he was working in his corner office when his secretary buzzed him on the intercom.
"Mr. Kruger," She said sweetly over the speaker.
"What is it Elaine?" He snapped back. "I really don't have time for interuptions right now!"
"Well, it's just corporate calling." His secretary replied.
"Oh, very well, patch them through."
"Yes Mr. Kruger."
"Hello"
"Is this Dan Kruger?" Said a gruff man on the other side of the phone.
"Um, yes it is."
"Well, this is Harry Watergate from human recources. I just wanted to let you know that profits are down, and you're fired with no severance package." There was then a sharp click as the man on the other end of the phone hung up.
"Uh, Elaine, you sure that was corporate?" Mr. Kruger said over the intercom. There was silence on the other end of the line. "Where has she gone?" Kruger left his office, and went to his secretary's desk, to find it empty, with a note on it. The note read:
Since you're not my boss anymore, I went home early today.
Merry Christmas Mr. Kruger,
Elaine

Just then three men walked in. One was tall, thin, and clean-shaven, one was shorter and muscular, and one looked like a cross between all The Beatles.
"Are you Dan Kruger?" Said the tall one.
"Yes, I am." He replied.
"Well, since you've just lost your job, we'd like to inform you that we are in need of your unique services."
"Wait," Kruger replied, spluttering. "You don't understand, I've just lost my job!"
"Well," said the man who looked like a Beatle "If you come with us, you won't be walking down Penny Lane."
"What kind of services?" Kruger replied.
"If you come with us to dinner, we'll set our entire proposal before you." The muscular man said.
"Well, where are we going, seeing as I'm unemployed-"
"Don't worry, it's our treat."
"Well, what have I got to lose?" Dan huffed, and he followed the men out.
