Hey there, happy New Year to everyone (in my country it's already 2014)!

to werewolf lover99: I haven't thought about it yet. But suppose I intended to add them and tell everyone about it first, it wouldn't be so much of a surprise anymore.

to Michael CC: Those are some great ideas, but sadly, I can't make Vidia accept Knuckles. Where would the fun be?

Now, let's make a small contest: let's see who will post the first review of 2014 to my story.

Sonic was leading Elsa and Anna to his plane. However, Elsa had a strange feeling. As if someone was following them.

Anna: "Are we there yet?"

Sonic shook his head.

Anna: "Okay. Are we there now?"

Elsa: "Anna, please try to be more patient. I'm sure Aaron has more important things to do than listening to you complaining"

Anna: "You're saying that as if you liked him or something"

Elsa blushed slightly. "That's not true!"

Sonic (thinking to himself): "At least I'm not the only one with these kinds of siblings"

Anna: "Whatever. Hey, are we there yet?"

Elsa: "Anna..."

Anna: "What? I'm trying to make some conversation"

Elsa: "With someone you can't understand"

Anna: "Good point"

Elsa heard a walking sound combined with a snow sound coming from behind. "Shh...I think I heard something"

Sonic turned around with his gauntlet in a low ready position, prepating to take aim and shoot should it be the case. "Whoever or whatever you are, get out of there with your hands at sight"

Anna: "How threatening was that bell sound supposed to be?"

A voice came from the direction they were now facing. "Threatening? Bell sounds are cute. Just like warm hugs"

Elsa: "Olaf?"

Olaf stepped forward, close enough to be seen clearly by everyone. "In snow and stick. Oh, and carrot"

Sonic put his arm down.

Elsa: "What are you doing here at this hour?"

Olaf: "Couldn't sleep. I wanted to take a walk and...oh, a cute butterfly!"

Elsa turned to Sonic. "Aaron, this is our friend, Olaf. Olaf, this is Aaron Stone. He says he has an explaination for this unusually harsh winter and needs our help"

Olaf: "Can I come with you?"

Elsa: "Why not? The more, the merrier"

Olaf: "Yay! Wait, where are we going?"

Elsa: "Pixie Hollow, then The Realm of Winter, I think. Right, Aaron?"

Sonic nodded his head.

Olaf: "Can we bring Kristoff too? He said he was around here. And we might need him and Sven if we're going to another snowy place like this"

Anna: "Sure" she turned to Elsa. "Looks like we're going on a double date"

Elsa had a rather annoyed look on her face.

Olaf: "Kristoff and Sven should be this way. Come on"

They kept walking until they reached the ice harvesting site.

Anna: "Hi, Kristoff!"

Kristoff coughed fakely.

Anna: "And Sven"

Kristoff: "Much better. What's up?" he looked at Sonic for a second. "Did Elsa finally get a boyfriend?"

Elsa sighed.

Anna: "It's a long story. But for short, come with us. We'll explain on the way"

Kristoff: "Okay, if you say so" he turned to Sven. "Come on, boy!"

Meanwhile, near the Black Arrow:

The whole group had returned, obviously except Sonic.

Shadow: "Has anyone found anything?"

Tink: "Nope"

Vidia: "Had you not made me go with Knuckles and Sled, I might have found something"

Amy: "But then we wouldn't have seen this angry face of yours"

Tails: "Nothing here either. Gliss didn't even seem to be focusing"

Gliss: "I was distracted by...umm...an acorn! Right, an acorn"

Spike (whispering to Peri): "Should we tell him that acorn has yellow fur and two tails?"

Peri: "Not yet"

Sonic returned with his new friends.

Kristoff (to Anna): "Don't you ever get bored of bugging your sister..." he turned to Sonic "...and her boyfriend? Give them some time just for themselves"

Senya: "Typical for you. While we're out there looking for help, you build a snowman with your new girlfriend, your soon to be sister-in-law and your soon to be ring bearer"

Elsa: "Why do I think I don't want to know what she said?"

Sonic (thinking to himself): "Because you don't" (to his friends): "I seem to have found help"

Knuckles: "And how are we going to bring them to Pixie Hollow in this small plane?"

Olaf: "How are we going to go to Pixie Hollow in this small plane?"

Knuckles: "That's what I said"

Shadow: "Didn't we have extra Pixie Dust?"

Sonic brought a bag of Pixie Dust from the plane. "I'm already ahead of you"

Sonic picked up some Pixie Dust and flew in circles around Elsa.

Elsa: "What-" she soon levitated above the ground. "Here's your answer, Olaf"

Silver: "And Knuckles' answer?"

Meanwhile, in Pixie Hollow, in the Hall of Winter:

Dewey reached the Pixie Dust tree. "Your Majesty! I have troubling news! A copy of one of my books is missing!"

Clarion: "And what's so troubling about it?"

Dewey: "It's a certain book. What magic doesn't tell you"

Clarion: "Didn't that book explain how to reach the Realm of Seasons?"

Dewey: "Exactly! So the problems in the Realm of Winter are not natural. Somebody must've caused them"

Sonic's jet landed in the Pixie Dust pool, along with Elsa, Anna, Kristoff and Olaf, who were now fairy-sized. Only Sven, who was waiting at the tree's base, retained his normal size.

Sonic: "Queen Clarion!"

Shadow: "You're so old that you were the only one who attended your arrival!"

The queen went outside. "I assume you found help"

Sonic: "Certainly"

Elsa stepped forward, bowing to Clarion. "Queen Elsa of Arendelle"

Shadow: "Queen? You're so old-"

Sonic covered his mouth.

Clarion: "In the meantime, we have discovered that the problem in the Realm of Winter must have been caused by an intruder"

Sonic: "An intruder? And didn't Glacius stop him?"

Clarion: "Apparently not"

Iridessa: "So it's an intruder more powerful than Glacius? What can possibly be done about this?"

Clarion: "That remains to be seen" She turned to Sonic, Shadow and Silver. "I suggest that you should keep my power for now"

Dewey: "Before you go to the Realm of Winter, we should announce the-"

Sonic: "No! No! No, no, no, no, no! And in case I didn't make myself clear, NO!"

Dewey: "What's wrong with the Never Council?"

Sonic: "Sweet Pea"

Dewey: "Huh?"

Sonic: "You'll see when we get there. Actually, you won't see because I'm staying outside"

Later, in the Council chamber:

Sweet Pea was reading the latest Aaron Stone book, titled Aaron Stone and the legend of the Mystic Lights

Marina: "Don't you ever get tired of him?"

Sweet Pea: "Nope. How could I anyway?"

Kit: "The same way as I did. He's nothing special"

Sweet Pea put down the book. "Take that back!"

Somebody knocked on the door.

Sweet Pea: "We'll finish this later" she turned to the door. "Come in!"

Shadow opened the door and entered, followed by the rest of the group. "We have something to announce you"

Sweet Pea was about to ask something.

Shadow: "Aaron isn't proposing to you"

Sweet Pea: "But he will someday"

Sonic: "No, I won't. How did you even convince me to come in again?"

Slate: "So what is it?"

Shadow: "It seems like the Realm of Winter was disturbed by an outsider"

Marina: "An outsider? What makes you think so?"

Shadow: "One of the copies of What magic doesn't tell you is missing. It was most likely stolen"

Kit: "And why do you have Queen Clarion's power?"

Shadow: "Well, it seems like this outsider is more powerful than Glacius, so we need to be prepared"

Elsa: "Since we will need all the help possible, do you think you could assist us?"

Sonic: "I'm sure they're busy with a lot of other things"

Marina: "Actually, I think it is a very good idea"

Sonic (thinking to himself): "Thanks, Elsa"

The group headed to the Hall of Winter, riding the giant Sven. The members of the Never council had taken their winter clothes and had their wings frosted. Sweet Pea insisted that Sonic frosted her wings with his gauntlet. Elsa and Sweet Pea were talking on the way to the Hall of Winter.

Elsa: "I saw you were reading Aaron Stone and the legend of the Mystic Lights"

Sweet Pea: "You're a fan too?"

Elsa: "Well, I'm definitely not as big of a fan as you, but I've already finished it. Secret of the Wings still remains my favourite, though"

Sled joined the conversation. "Whoa, wait. You read The legend of the Mystic Lights? That my least favourite. It makes me look like a loser who can't fight or get a girlfriend"

Rosetta: "Yeah, it's surely the book's fault"

Dewey: "If you've finished, we're here"

The group, including Sven, stepped through the huge door to the Hall of Winter.

Elsa: "And what should I do?"

Dewey picked up a copy of the book What magic doesn't tell you. "Follow me"

Dewey stepped on the snowflake, followed by everyone else. Sven, however, was too big to fit on the snowflake, so when Dewey thrust his staff in the floor and it lifted high in the air, almost reaching the ceiling, Sven just flew after them, since he still had some Pixie Dust.

Kristoff: "Come on, Sven, don't be afraid. Who's a good reindeer?"

The snowflake reached a somewhat secret forrider located high inside one of the walls. The corridor led them to the Shrine of Glacius. Dewey opened the book to a specific book and handed it to Elsa. "You have to read this incantation"

Elsa took the book from Dewey. "Theenaan Arhbhaak Inhaan Dohwaak Kahtwhan Uuzhvaath Bethuud Nox!"

Elsa's incantation worked. A blinding light came from the shrine. When the light faded, everyone could see their surroundings, which greatly resembled the Winter Woods. Sven was now the same size as everyone else.

Anna: "You got it on the first try, huh? Impressive"

Elsa: "Right. Don't I get any congratulations?"

Shadow: "You're so old that you were right there when the incantation was invented"

Elsa: "I kind of asked for it"
