it been a while but i am still here this is is my latest christ story i hope you like it

Leroy the reindeer king
Welcome and come on in, I am Professor Henry Pennywhistle, the wise old owl and historian of the Great North Woods. I have a story to tell you of reindeer, witches and Christmas. It was a time ago, not to long but a while back, any way it was some time ago. It was Christmas Eve and we were waiting for the birth of Melvin and Nancy’s first calf, it had been foretold that it would be special because the good witch Zendel had put a spell on it. It was one minute pasted midnight and he was born. And any male deer born on Christmas would be the next king of the Christmas reindeer herd. But what a site he was he had a big round nose that kind of drooped, and long legs with knobby knees and big feet, he was black and his legs were white. Zendel took one look and said “oh my deer what have I done” and she was off on her broom to find the spell she had used. Many of the old cows were saying she must have been fooling around that thing does not look like Melvin or a reindeer, it look more like a moose than a reindeer. I could tell Leroy was going to have a hard time.
Now Melvin was off waking up the herd to brag about his new son and give out cigars to all who wanted one. He did not care how Leroy look he was his son, and he was on the council of elders. The old bucks congratulated him but said things badly about Leroy behind his back they call him old droopy nose.
As time went on Leroy was off to school and was an excellent student, he study hard day and night. But he was a little angsts to show how smart he was and would not let the other student answer. The teacher had to tell him to let the others answer. And the student started to call him name like droopy nose smart de pants. When they went out to play they would call him names and run off, leaving him alone. One day he wandered off down by the wolves and they tried to attack him, and found him more than they could handle. He step in the middle of one and made him holler from the pain of his heavy feet. But Melvin and some others came to the rescue, and chase off the wolves. Leroy was so sad he wish the wolves had got him.
It was time for Leroy first rut. His antlers were very small so he found some branches to tie to his small horns and prance around the meadow with all the other. Then he was challenge to a face off. There he was to face down for the first time a young buck with a full set of antlers. They moved to the middle of the meadow and made ready for the charge. Leroy was scared and when he lower his head to position his fake antlers they fell off and he ran from the meadow to the sideline to hide a misted a loud roar of laughter and distain.
Comet was holding sled pulling class, and it was Leroy turn, they had to make a special harness for him he was so big. Some of his class mates decided to make it hard for Leroy, they load the sled with everything they could find. Leroy got ready to pull the sled down to the end of the meadow and back, as fast as he could. He was off in a shot and the sled bounce and the load went everywhere.  Comet explain that he needed to pull the sled not fly it. Comet had the heckler help pick up the load and reload the sled and bring it back to the start.
Leroy was very sad and want to die, he had no friend and no one to talk to, and then Rudolf came for a visit, and all though they were cousin they hit it off. Rudolf had been through much of the same harassments, and knew how he felt. They played reindeer games and had fun. The herd saw and remembered how they treated Rudolf many years ago, and started to like Leroy.
It was now the time of the forth rut and Leroy had grown bigger and had a massive set of antlers. He paraded the meadow showing off his big horns and challenged any and all comers to a face off, five would be a good number all at once he said. Some of the old buck said they needed to take him down a notch of two and three young bucks joined in for the challenge. They face off in the middle of the meadow. Leroy stood there and lowered his head to position his antlers, paw the ground a time or two and waited. The five made ready to charge pawing the ground the charging. But they look up and saw the twelve by six foot antlers of Leroy, they broke in different direction some flying overhead and the others back peddling to save grace, and a bad collision.  Leroy was the victor, and caught the attention of one Daisy who was visiting her aunt, she was a moose.  This was to be a good thing.  And it would pass they would be together.
The wolves were howling and making advance on the herd at the other end of the meadow and had the eye on some helpless young reindeer, Leroy turn and head full steam at the wolves, plowing the snow as he went and caught the wolves in his wake pushing them back twenty miles  and saving the young reindeer. The herd hail Leroy for his bravery. Hollering hail to the king. Long live Leroy the king
How thing were getting time to name the king of the reindeer herd and the only contender was Leroy. The council had met and was ready to name the king. Zendel the witch had return and said that Grendel the wicked witch of the north had block her spell on Leroy. So the council had no choice but to name Leroy king of the herd.
A few mile away Santa was having a problem, with snow lots of snow a hundred feet of snow. The Christmas village was buried And he had call the National Guard to help so he could make his round on Christmas. But the guard said it would be spring before they could get there. Then Rudolf said to Santa that he had an idea that could save Christmas. So he was off to see Leroy.  He found Leroy and told the problem, so Leroy and Rudolf when to aid Santa it was found that Grendel the wicked witch of the north was responsible. She was mad that Santa had only gave her three bags of coal last Christmas, and she needed more to heat her castle.; so she made it snow so bad that Santa could not go on his rounds. The first thing that needed to be done was to stop the snow so Leroy started to push the snow to Grendel castle. The she stop the snow she had more snow then could handle. And with his big antlers he pushed all the snow from the Christmas village, and Santa ask Leroy to help pull his sleigh Santa deliver thee tons coal to Grendel.   After Santa called Leroy a side and told him he was a moose and although he had a reindeer heart and soul he was a moose and it was all right for him and Daisy to merry. They did and Leroy open a snow removal business a little south east of Nome. He told the council to find another king.
 merry Christmas and god bless
