Stupid Peikko Saves Christmas
Story by Webmaster Etelämäki
No Christmas ? The entire village became silent. No Christmas ? Eeeee ghaaads ! Shouted a little boy named Henri. Everyone looked at Henri and became heartbroken.
Little Henri slowly made his way to Peikko, who was the only one still dancing the night away, seemingly ignorant of what was taking place around him.
Little Henri tugged at Peikko's cloak. Uncle, my Dear Uncle ! There will be no Christmas this year and no more celebration. Peikko came to his senses and looked at the sad little boy. Not to worry my son, not to worry at all ! There shall be a Christmas this Year ! Yes ! I have seen it ! And it will be the BEST Christmas of All !
Gather round friends, Gather round. And I Peikko will tell you of my plan to make Christmas this year. I do admit that I have never cared much for this Christmas of my Dear Cousin Santa. But, this year because of Santa's precious visit to me and because of his good company, And because of this great winter festival in honor of ME, I Peikko will help make Christmas this year ! Now, we have little time so we must hurry.
Timmo and Henri ! Take this sack and place one half of Santa's gifts into it. Timmo and Henri looked at the bag, looked at each other, then shrugged their shoulders. It seemed like such a small bag ! But they knew better than to question a Gnome about such things, especially Peikko. So, off they went and they placed half of Santa's gifts into Peikko's bag.

Donner, get the team together, for I will share with you this night the secret of the Gnomes ! Yes, I will do it. Everyone was amazed. No Gnome would ever tell this secret. Not to worry Santa ! yelled Peikko. The reindeer must eat this special mint before they can understand the secrets and when Christmas is past they will not remember any of it.
Santa nodded his approval and the reindeer gathered round Peikko for their mints. Peikko then whispered a mystical chant into each reindeer's ears. And as each understood the secrets they began to dance around the fire in a counter-clockwise direction. Before long all nine reindeer, Peikko and even Santa were dancing round the fire. Suddenly, they all vanished ! Just like a whirlwind ! They vanished.
