Not Ready To Leave

Charming watched as Aduro put the spell on Marco and the jousting team that night.

"This'll drive Snowgre to us.

He hates these guys with a passion!" he cackled as he left Marco's house.

Snowgre woke up early in the morning.

He'd had a weird dream.

He had been in school when Marco tried to attack him when he was surrounded by arctic blue light.

But he woke up after that.

"That was some dream.

But it felt so real.

I wonder what would've happened?

Would I have the strength within to beat him?" he thought as he got dressed.

He came out later wearing goggles on his furry head along with a Green Day t- shirt on and black jeans.

Spam smiled at that.

"Morning Snowgre." Fiona said to him.

"Morning." He replied softly.

She saw a look of excitement seeing Artie walk in.

He blushed as he hugged him.

"Umm…. Good morning too Snowg?

I see somebody's in a better mood.

I guess a good night's sleep helped." Artie replied blushing.

Shrek laughed at that.

He knew Snowgre was beginning to learn to trust them especially Artie.

Leah then came in and sat down dressed in punk rock clothes and a Leaf Village head band.

"Don't worry.

Going to high school in another world sounds fun.

Carley's mega excited.

I know why.

She's never been in high school.

It's different where she lives." Leah said eating toast with eyeball jelly.

A few minutes later Carley came out.

She was wearing a kimono, a green and purple beret on her head, Sand Village gloves and boots.

"Morning!" she said hugging Leah.

"Morning too.

Could you?" Leah replied.

"Oops sorry.

I didn't know you were eating." She replied breaking the hug.

"It's okay.

Besides I like it when you're huggy first thing in the morning." She replied as they kissed.

Snowgre smiled at that.

They noticed he was distracted as they walked to school along with the triplets.

"You okay?

You've been quiet since we left the swamp." Leah told him.

"I'm fine.

I'm just thinking about this dream I had.

It was sort of.... cool." Snowgre replied gulping as they entered Duloc High.

Artie was already there.

"Hey guys welcome." he said.

Snowgre looked nervous as he saw some girls give him cold stares.

"Those guys are so mean.

He needs to know not all kids here are mean." Artie thought as they walked to class.

But on the way to home room, Marco and his jousting buddies were in the way.

"Hello Snowg.

Let's have some fun!" he said to him.

"Charming must've done something to them like a spell.

We have to break it even if they are jerks." Leah thought as Snowgre was cornered.

He looked scared but smiled feeling something stir within him.

Suddenly a glowing icicle mark appeared on his fore head.

Arctic blue light surrounded him.

"What's going on?

Why is this happening?" Arduro thought as he saw it fade.

Snowgre was in a light blue suit of armour with a dark blue icicle crest on his helmet , chest and shield.

Leah saw a huge smile on Carley's face.

"He became the Artic Knight, one of the Arian Knights.

He'll be stronger. every time he uses his Ogreix." she answered.

Arduro looked nervous hearing that.

"This rocks!" Snowgre said shooting ice darts out of his armoured hands.

"Marco and his friends are under a spell.

You've gotta free them." Leah told him.

He nodded as he used his Ogreix to free them.

"What's going on?

Who're you?" Marco asked scared.

"Your worst nightmare." Snowgre replied.

He laughed as they ran off afraid.

"Very nice mi amigo." Carley told him as his armour vanished into his body.

"Wow that rocked!

Is this what happens when you become that ogre warrior?" Snowgre asked her.

"Yes." she told him.

Charming growled in anger but saw Arduro smile as Snowgre walked off with his friends...

Shrek wondered what had made Snowgre happy but he didn't say.

Artie smiled as he joined Snowgre.

"I heard what happened with Marco.

You were amazing apparently." he told him as they went to have dinner.

Charming smiled seeing how Snowgre was around Artie......
