The group had lost nearly half of its members, but the rest trekked on. They had rescued four reindeer, and Santa was counting on them to find the rest. Ari, KC, Dylan, and Vic had trouble moving due to being frozen. They had to be helped along by the rest of the group members.

As they crossed through a snowy field, a faint noise was heard in the distance. They turned their attention up towards the sky.

A helicopter burst through the clouds high above them. It moved towards the group and positioned itself directly overhead.

"What's it doing? :P " said Ari as his frozen teeth shivered.

After a few moments, a dark shape fell from the side of the helicopter and plummeted towards them. Dylan was standing directly over the growing shadow. He tried to lunge out of the way, but he was frozen solid. He mumbled for help the best he could. Boc ran over just in time and shoved Dylan just out of the way of the massive object....







"lol wut." said Paco.

Donner's block of ice was still solid despite falling all that way. The helicopter was circling back around towards them to make another pass.

"What now?" asked Carter.

The helicopter flew overhead, this time dropping down smaller objects. They floated down gently towards the ground.

"Presents!" Patrick yelled. He galloped over to one and lifted up the lid. Inside the box were a dozen or so toys.

ELIMINATION QUEST

- The helicopter will continue to drop presents every hour.

- On any exact hour mark (5:00), whoever posts on that minute will claim a present.

- The first person to post on an hour mark will receive 5 presents. The second will receive 4, then 3, then 2. If anyone else posts on that minute, they'll receive 1 present

- You can only post on the top of an hour. Nothing at 5:01 will count.

- This day will end at 7:00 PM today. That gives you 14 chances to collect presents.

- The two people with the least amount of presents collected will be in danger of being eliminated. I will explain how at 7:00.

- Every present you collect will be added to your present total at the END of the day.
