The Man From U.N.D.E.A.D.'s Christmas Carol (10 page)

“
Well next time that you need a champion to fight your cause, call someone else,
”
I told him.
“And do try to stop getting caught all the time.”

“
Understood,
”
he would have nodded if the lion
’
s head hadn
’
t been nailed to the door.
“
Thanks Ward and Merry Christmas.
”

The glow faded away and the lion was a lion once more.

“
Merry Christmas,
”
I offered belatedly, looking in through the lounge window
to
where Veronika and Penny were chatting animatedly over two cups of eggnog
before the warmth of
a
fake log fire
,
“
and bless us all, every one.
”
