As Speedy's closet door opened Speedy stared in amazement as Santa popped his head around the door "Um Speedy about that magic closet of yours....." Speedy just sat there not quite believing that Santa was standing there in his house,shuffling his feet feeling shy all of a sudden quietly replied "Yes Santa" HOHOHO Santa laughed a big deep belly laugh"Don't worry Speedy nothing bad but I could do with some help" Speedy hopped around all happy and said "can I help?" "Bless you Speedy!Yes you can!I have too many extra deliveries And Rudolph still has his cold and can't manage these extra ones....hmmm....but you are small you might need to get some friends together to help you!" Speedy then had his turn to giggle "Hehehehe that's OK I can do that we'll meet you at your home Santa!"
After Santa left,Speedy hopped into the closet and thought Mickey that's who I need and as quick as that Speedy hopped out at the other end and shouted for Mickey to come quick,Mickey hopped up grumbling "What's all the hurry?"Speedy told Mickey about his visit from Santa "We need to get the others together to help with these extra deliveries,We need to get the others together and drag them over to Santa's to help him,what do you think Mickey?" Mickey muttering and grumbling under his breath"better get some treats for this!!"So shake him self off Mickey firmly said"you better get that foo' gerbil Freddie to get some of the others too and make him a list of who to bring since he's been to Santa's".
After getting Freddie and getting the list drawn up Mickey said "Right don't forget you get Umbra,Hannah and Harrington and Maddy we will bring Racer ,Winston ,Benji ,Chico ,Zoe and Princess from The House of Rabbits that should be enough" Freddie Squeaked excitedly "Got it! see you there"and was gone as quick as a flash leaving Mickey grumbling "foo' gerbil!"Speedy was looking away trying not to giggle" We'd better get going then Mickey"Mickey just hrmphed loudly and with that they were gone too.
The two of them arrived at the HOR with Speedy sneaking a peek with his good eye out of the closet and saw Racer hopping around Speedy shouted "Racer! we need your help go get the others!!" After rounding them up Speedy told them about Santa needing help and after asking them if they would help Princess spoke"Of course We'll help what are you waiting for show us the way"As if she was commanding a subject Speedy shrugged and took no notice and lead the way to Santa's home!When they got the Freddie was there too with Umbra ,Hannah,Harrington and Maddy,as Speedy hopped out of the closet Maddy zipped over to Speedy "SPEEDY!There you are where have you been?Before Speedy could answer Princess was there saying"Getting us you silly girl"Maddy screwed her eyes pointedly but before she could answer Speedy piped in "Come on Santa is waiting"
So after talking with Santa a plan was drawn up and each bunny took a small magic sack and and a list of all the places they had to go and off they went one by one it took the bunnies all night long but they managed it except Speedy his list was a bit longer than the others running out of time Speedy had one more name on his list so he did the only thing he could do and that was get the present mailed knowing Auntie Jane would mind it being late as She kept saying she had been too naughty to have something from Santa!
When Speedy got home he felt very tired and jumped up into his den not noticing that his stocking was full and flopped down fast asleep!
