Chapter 5: Meet Corey
(Disclaimer! I own nothing of Grojband or Frozen!)
Laney packed her bags.
"Laney where are you going?" asked Lenny.
"I have to go after Carrie," said Laney, "She's my sister and sisters stick together no matter what."
"I understand," said Lenny, "But be careful."
"I will," said Laney, "I'm putting you in charge of the city until I get back. Good luck!"
She went to go find Carrie.
"I'll need some supplies though," said Laney as she went to go find a shop, "It shouldn't be so bad walking in the snow.
"I'll find Carrie and bring peace to the kingdom in no time," said Laney.
50 and a half minutes later…..
"It had to be snow," said Laney, "It just had to be snow. Why couldn't it be summer magic?"
She slid on snow and almost fell into a puddle of water.
She then saw a sign.
"This has to be it," she said, "Barney's Trading Post."
Snow fell down revealing more words.
"ooh, and Sauna!" she said.
She went in.
"Yoo hoo," said Barney, "Big summer blow out. Half off swimming suits, clogs and other essentials."
"Um thanks," said Laney, "Do you have any winter boots and uh…. Dresses."
"That would be in our winter department," said Barney.
She saw them and wasn't impressed.
"This'll have to do for now," said Laney, "Have you seen another girl with blue hair walk by here?"
"Only one who's crazy enough to be out in this weather is you," said Barney.
Someone else came in and he was covered in snow. He had blue hair and a orange beanie.
"Carrots," he said.
"Excuse me?" asked Laney.
"Behind you," said the boy.
"Oh, right," said Laney as she moved.
He took the carrots.
"You went through quite a storm Corey," said Barney.
"It came from the north mountains," said Corey.
"North mountains," said Laney, "She's gotta be there."
"That will be 40," said Barney.
"40?" asked Corey, "No-no, 10."
"Well its from our winter department," said Barney, "It's a supply problem."
"You wanna talk about a supply problem," said Corey, "I sell ice for a living."
"That's rough buddy," said Laney, "Sorry."
"Still 40," said Barney, "But I will throw in a visit to the sauna."
They looked at the people in the sauna.
"Help me out," said Corey, "I only got 10."
"Well I'll give you this and no more," said Barney as he took the rope and ice pick.
"What happened in the north mountain?" asked Laney, "Did it seem magical?"
Corey took off his scarf.
"Yes," he said, "Now back up while I deal with this crook here."
Barney got up and he was taller than usual.
"What did you call me?" he asked.
He dragged him out.
"Ok, ok I'm…." said Corey.
He threw him out.
His reindeer came to him.
"No Kon, I couldn't get the carrots," said Corey.
He whined.
"But I found us a place to sleep for free," said Corey.
"Sorry about the violence," said Barney, "So you wanted the outfit and boots?"
"Actually…." Said Laney.
Corey and his reindeer were warming up by a fire.
Corey was strumming his guitar.
Reindeer are better than people
Corey: Reindeers are better than people
Sven, don't you think that's true?
(Reindeer voice)
Yeah, people will beat you and curse you and cheat you Every one of em's bad, except you
(regular voice)
But people smell better than reindeers
Sven, don't you think I'm right?
(Reindeer voice)
That's once again true, for all except you You got me. Let's call it a night
(Regular voice)
Good night. Don't let the frostbite bite
Laney came in and heard the music.
"That was a very nice duet sir," she said.
Corey saw her.
"Um… Hi," said Corey.
"Hello," said Laney, "I don't think we've properly introduced. I'm Laney."
"Corey," said Corey as he shook her hand, "What's up?"
"Ok, I know this is gonna sound strange," said Laney, "But… Um…."
"Just spill," said Corey, "What's goin' on?"
"I'd like you to take me to the north mountains," said Laney.
"What?" asked Corey, "I'm sorry, but I don't give free rides, especially since I got enough going on."
He yawned and was about to go to sleep.
She tossed him some stuff he wanted to buy.
"Perhaps I wasn't clear," said Laney, "Take me to the north mountains."
He looked at the stuff and back at her.
"Ok," he said.
