A Rookery Christmas

A Rookery Christmas is the fifth episode of Season 1 (Book Series) of The Adventures of Rocco and Artie. It was first released on pdf book on December 24, 2010.

Synopsis
Dr. Dave Rookery has been planning his attack on Santa and is ready to strike. Dave's mission starts after November 2010; he hacked into Rocco and Artie's Agency account and is using it to see classified files. Among them is files about Santa.

At Rocco and Artie's briefings, Skipper sent them to Dave's Office to remove his access on their accounts. Once there they put on invisibility suits, but when they moved objects in Dave's Office, they set the security alarm off. The alarm system sent a notice to Dave's mobile phone, he would arrive in 10 minutes. Rocco and Artie found all but one of the passwords on a note pad on Dave's desk. However, they could not find out the last password and they got locked out after many attempts.

Skipper radioed them to get out, as Dave was in the parking lot. Since they could encounter Dave, they had to stay invisible. To get down fast, they took the elevator. The Three Towers control team thought the elevator was malfunctioning, as they saw no one inside and no one called the elevator from below. The engineers asked if anyone was inside, but Rocco and Artie said nothing to avoid blowing their cover. The engineers also tried to have the elevator stop at a floor so they could check it, but Rocco and Artie pushed buttons to make it down.

Once they reached the Ground floor, they quickly rushed out of the elevator, because elevator engineers were waiting. On the way down they almost collided with Dave.

On Friday it was Christmas Eve, Skipper forgot to brief the agents that day because he was getting ready for the Christmas party. Skipper also forgot Dave was about to strike that day.

Dave took pictures of Santa's sleigh and got some secrets from the reindeer on Christmas eve.
