Title: The Ponderings of an Eleven Year Old Antichrist at Christmas
Words: 100
Challenge: Christmas
Points: The Them
Adam and Pepper looked critically at the nativity display in the shop window.
“It’s not very Christmassy,” complained Pepper. “There’s not even a snowman, or a Santa Claus.”
“It is his birthday though,” said Adam, in what the Them had come to know as his ‘being reasonable’ voice.
Pepper shrugged. “I suppose so.”
“I feel sorry for him,” said Adam, eventually.
“What, ‘cos of the ‘getting killed’ thing?”
“Yeah, that and the fact that I got a computer and a mountain bike for my birthday. All they gave him was gold, Frankenstein and Myrtle. I don’t call those proper presents.”
