AUTHORS NOTE: PLEASE YOU MUST READ THIS! If this had to take place at a certain time, it would come before my last fanfiction Childhood is the Kingdom Where Nobody Dies. You kind of have to read it though before FINISHING reading this ENTIRE fanfic to better understand this fanfic. This will start out slow, but it'll start picking up after the actual storyline is established. Enjoy! :)

Cold, so very cold her mind could not focus on anything else. Thoughts of frostbite and hypothermia took over her brain, sending her mind into complete madness. The snowy wind was the hypothermia. Its strange, stretched face grinned at the prospect of her probable death. And the frostbite took the form of the snow on the ground. The jagged face with razor sharp ice teeth seemed to be eating her from her feet to her knees.

All she could see was the white faces of her killers.

All to be heard was the evil wind screaming with glee of its new prey.

All that can be felt was cold. Cold, so very cold.

"Roy threw it on the floor in disgust; 'You are the most annoying and insane person I've ever met...of course not!' and he stormed out of the room.

'B-but, Roy...you have to! I love you!' Melody cried, but he couldn't care less. Then suddenly, out of the blue, there was something so horrifying and terrible that...it will be shown right after the break! Have you ever tried to clean the gutter but..." Misery whacked the radio thing with her staff to turn it off.

"I STILL don't get how this is entertaining," mumbled Skull Boy, who was putting Ruby's cooking supplies away as a favor.

"Skull Boy we already had this conversation! Your 'far-fetched' claim about someone constantly frightened..." began Scaredy Bat.

"Yeah! About that ener...umm whatta...extra thingy!" shouted Iris from on top of Ruby's chair.

"And that person who's life is one..." Misery was suddenly downed in a waterfall of books from the bookshelf. "...disaster after another. Ow."

"I believe also a 'refined, educated gentlemen'," added Poe as Skull boy walked into the fire-lit room and sat on the large red chair across from Ruby.

"And the...uhh heheh 'charming love interest'...right?" Ruby giggled nervously. Skull Boy raised one eyebrow. "Well...I-I mean, this soap opera had a guy who was really mean for no reason...so there doesn't HAVE to have a charming love interest."

"Not to mention a hopeless, 'bubbly' romantic," Misery chimed in.

"Exactly," Ruby sighed. WHOOOSHHHH went the wind whipping violently outside.

"Wow, that blizzard is sure unforgiving huh, guys?" Ruby said. Everyone nodded in agreement, staring out the window into the white world. Something flew quickly past the window, followed by an:

"AHHHHHHH!"

"What was that?" gasped Ruby. She glanced at the others, all still puzzled.

"Not a normal blizzard," Skull Boy replied. They knew Frank and Len didn't install a sound system like they thought last time. Then what...

"A person!" announced Iris. Those words took a while to settle into the room, until everyone understood. It sent their hearts racing.

"Oh no! What do we do? I don't know! They could freeze or-or..." Scaredy fluttered around panicked, but decided to meditate before he passed out. Ruby looked at Scaredy petrified, and everyone's distraught faces. She inhaled, knowing it was up to her. Ruby hopped onto her chair.

"Come on, gang! We have to help them!" She thrust a finger into the air, sounding braver than she actually felt.
