Elle is Incredulous
Shout out to DrawingWiffWaffles for creating the Yeti design featured in this illustration!
There was a business camping trip going on and Elle would be taking some of the elves into the snowy landscapes. Already the young elves were making up stories about the fabled Yetis but Elle was having none of it.
'I remember when I took the trip, it's just snow, trees and bonding. This is an exercise of team building, not a horror story!' she would say. Indeed Elle had been on this trip before, it was many years ago and while she was one of the elves keen to meet a Yeti she would discover that it was not going to happen. As time went on Elle grew out of the idea and began to agree to fear the idea of real Yetis.
Four the elves that were attending the trip this year were Hoho, Wendy, Thomas Elfison and Emily. It was a trying experience for them but Elle most of all. Thomas Elfison genuinley believed in Yetis and Wendy was hoping if one was real she's get to give it a beating!
When it was time to set up camp, things got worse. Hoho, being his friendly self, only wanted to help and trying to do more than he was capable of, much to the annoyance of the other elves but Emily the most.
'Hoho, I've got this!' she snapped. 'Can't you let a girl be strong?'
'Oh greif, not the again!' groaned Wendy, who was sick of Emily's feminist preaching.
'I'm just being a little helper!' insisted Hoho, but Emily wouldn't listen.
'Being a little inconsiderate!' Emily pouted.
'Oh, oh, oh, stop it!' shouted Elle, that shut the both of them up. They continued setting up camp with not another word. Hoho didn't speak until Thomas Elfison nearly touched the bonfire and Emily didn't speak until camp was fully set up.
The evening was more pleasant and soon it was time for the elves to go into their tents and sleep. Elle was just making sure that all of the elves were doing so without any trouble, but then she saw one of the tents close by the forest, it was shaking! Elle approached it with concern.
'Everything alright in there?' there was no response, but more shaking. Elle was becoming suspicious and so approached the tent. 'Anyone in there?' Elle asked. There were a couple of shrieks from inside the tent and Elle quickly unzipped the door to find Emily and Hoho inside! 'What on Earth is going on?'
'It's the Yeti!' Emily cried. 'We saw one!'
'Oh good greif!' signed Elle. 'There's no such thing as a Yeti.'
'Behind you, Santa!' Hoho cried.
Elle didn't look behind her as a Yeti walked out from the trees and sat down on her knees behind Elle.
'You two have been particularly troublesome, tonight.' grumbled Elle. 'If I were to turn around now, I be able to tell you with full confidence that there is no such thing-' Elle had turned around. Only her confidence had taken a beating to the surprise of a real Yeti sat before her.
'Hey.' said the Yeti calmly. Elle jumped back in surprise. Then the Yeti got our her phone and took a picture of the surprised Elle. Elle was still dazed and surprised as the Yeti got up and walked back into the trees, seconds later her voice was heard. 'There, told you I could scare Santa! You owe me!'
'What?' was the only thing Elle could muster to justify the events that had just happened. No more Yetis were seen throughout the trip and afterwards, Elle decided it would be best for the time being to send campers elsewhere until more could be learned about Yetis, whih apparently exist now!
