"All i want for christmas is ... you." Lars hummed as he dragged the into the House. Rei looked at the Tree. "Couldn't that have been a smaller one. What if Som-" she started. "No one that cant be trusted with this tree will be around it. Or they will be punished." Rei looked at the tree and then back at him. "Whats the punishment?" did she ask. Lars dropped the Tree and stepped closer to her. "Thats going to be secret. Unless you want to volunteer?"

Lana came in with a box of Lights. "What kind of Volunteer do you need?" she asked, looking at the two kids. "The kind that ends on the naughty list. But you are to old to believe in Santa." The Older Assistant placed the Lights on the floor. "I wouldn't be to sure about either of these things." she stepped closer and pulled a candy cane from behind his ears. "Still, i have my own Work to do. I hope you two will have fun decorating. "The Last time we had a tree in this shop was when i was starting out." she remarked and vanished into her office.

The two started to set up the Tree in the Back of the shopping area. Giving eachother a hand, while placing the lights and decorating it. "So, where is the Star for the top?" Rei asked after all other things were used up. "Guess we will have to figure something out. But lets eat lunch first." With that did the two collect Lana and went to eat at a nearby Restraurant.

Returning an hour latter to a cry for help. Claire looked up at them, from underneath the Tree. "Can someone please help me, i am stuck." Lana looked at the girl. "Let me guess. You found your Volunteer?" she said and looked at Lars. "She is the one touching the Tree." he verified and lifted the Tree up a bit so that Lana could pull the girl out.

Claire tried to remove as many needles from her cloths as possible. "So, what am i volunteering for?" she asked without paying much attention. Lars slowly moved her through the Shop, till they reached the classical display guillotine. After hitting her foot on the bench next to it, did she look up. "You cant be serious." she sat down on the bench. "You are Serious." she corrected herself and leaned back on the bench.

"So, why is touching the punished with the use of that thing?" she asked. As she closed the Restraint for her own neck and glared at the blade. "It isn't i just needed someone to borrow their head." he answered the girl. The Blade dropped and instantly cut through the girls neck. He quickly picked the head up. She  opened her eyes, so what are you gonna do?" she asked as he walked back to the Tree, leaving her body behind on the guillotine.

"Oh, the Tree is already back in place." Lars noted. "It took you long enough." Lana mocked as she adjusted the last lamp. With that did he jump of the ladder and landed next to Rei. Lars then climbed up the ladder and placed Claires head on the top. He made sure that the head wouldn't just fall off, before he jumped down.

"you can't just leave me like that." she shouted from up the Tree. Rei vanished for a bit and returned with Claires headless body. "Don't worry, i will keep an eye on you." she said grabbed Claires hand to wave her head goodbye as she dragged the body towards the lunch room. Lana looked at the head for a bit. "We can't just leave till after christmas. What if her Parents show up?" she asked. Lars looked at his watch. "Fine. One more hour and i will go and get a proper star and Replace her."
