Yvetal soon landed in a spot in the mountains. The humans climbed down, and Seth said, "Return."
Yvetal did, and he went into his Poke ball.
"Why are we here?" asked Anna.
"Supplies. We need winter clothing if we're going up there."
"Good idea," said Alissa.
They looked at the sign.
'Wandering Oaken Trading Post, and Sauna.'
They walked in, and looked around. They then heard a man from the counter say, "Yoo hoo! Big summer blowout! Half off clogs, swimming suits and a sun balm of my own invention, yeah?"
"Thank you, but for now, we'd like winter clothing," said Alissa.
"That would be in our winter department," said the man.
They looked to see just three outfits, some rope, a pick ax, and some rackets.
"Uh, lucky us," said Seth.
"Say," said Anna, "Has another woman, the Queen, per chance, been through here?"
"Only ones crazy enough to be in this storm are you three."
Just then, the door opened, and a man, covered in snow, came in.
"You and this fellow. Yoo hoo, big summer blow out!"
The man walked up, and he said, "Carrots."
Alissa looked at him, with a weird look.
"Behind you."
"Oh, sorry," said Alissa.
The man took the carrots, and he put them on the counter. He then grabbed the rope and pick ax. "Oh, a real howler in July, yes? And where would you be coming from?"
"The North Mountain," said the man.
"North Mountain?" asked Seth.
"That will be 40."
"40? No, 10!"
"Oh dear, see, this is from our winter stock, where supply and demand have a big problem."
"You wanna talk about a supply and demand problem? I sell ice for a living!"
"Wow, that is a really rough business to be in right now," said Seth, "I mean-" He stopped when they all glared at him. "-Ahem, that's unfortunate."
"Still 40. But, I will throw in a visit to Oaken's Sauna. Hoo-hoo, hi family!"
"Hoo hoo!"
"10's all I got. Help me out here."
Oaken then moved the carrots to one side, and said, "Okay, I will give you this and no more."
"Okay, just answer me this one question," said Anna, "What was happening on the North Mountain? Did it seem, magical?"
The man pulled off his scarf, and said, "Yes! Now back up, while I deal with this crook."
Oaken then stood up to a towering 6 ft 11.
"What did you call me!?"
Oaken then threw Kristoff out the door, and into the snow. "Bye-bye!"
The five remaining customers looked at him, and Oaken said, "I'm sorry about this violence. I will add in a quart of ludifisk. So, just the outfits and the boots, yeah?"
Seth then said, "How much for all of this plus the things he was going to buy?"
"What?" asked Anna.
"Look, my Pokemon can't fly up there if it's snowing like that! If it was rain, that'd be a different story completely."
They bought all the things, and Anna sold her dress, while Seth and Alissa sold some pearls and nuggets they found to pay for the supplies.
"Okay, where is he?" Eva and Piplup then lead the way, and looked inside.
They saw the man singing to his reindeer.
[Kristoff:]
Reindeers are better than people
Sven, don't you think that's true?
[As Sven:]
Yeah, people will beat you and curse you and cheat you
Every one of them's bad except you
[Normal voice:]
Oh, thanks buddy
But people smell better than reindeers
Sven, don't you think I'm right?
[As Sven:]
That's once again true
For all except you
[Normal voice:]
You got me, let's call it a night
[As Sven:]
Good night
[Normal voice:]
Don't let the frost bite bite
Piplup clapped, while Eva cheered.
"Nice duet," said Anna.
"Oh, it's you three. What do you want?"
"We want you to take us up the North Mountain," said Anna.
The man laid in the hay stack, and said, "I don't take people places."
Then, a snort blew his hat off, and a very angry looking Haxorus was looking at him.
Mew then came and brought Kristoff his stuff.
"Let me rephrase that," said Seth, "Take us up the North Mountain, or Haxorus here is gonna chop you up."
"Hax," said Haxorus.
Kristoff then looked at them, and said, "Alright. We'll leave at dawn."
Haxorus then looked him right in the eye, and took a carrot out. He then walked out, munching on it, with the others following.
"Piplup!" "Eevoi!"
"Were you really going to have him chopped up?" asked Anna.
"Not really," whispered Seth, "I just said that to get him to cooperate."
Soon, they were all heading up the North Mountain, and the man introduced himself as Kristoff, and the reindeer as Sven.
"So, tell me, what made the Queen go all ice crazy?"
"Well," said Anna, "It was my fault, I got engaged, and she wouldn't bless the marriage, because I just met him that day, and so I grabbed her glove, and-"
"Wait, you got engaged to someone you just met?"
"Yes, but the thing is, she always wore the gloves all the time, so I thought she had a thing with dirt, and-"
"HOLD ON! You mean to tell me you got engaged to someone you just MET that DAY!?"
"Yes, now would you listen!?"
"Didn't your parents ever warn you about strangers!?"
Anna looked at Kristoff, and scooted over while saying, "Yes, they, did. But Hans, is no stranger."
"Really?" asked Kristoff, "What's his last name?"
"Ugh, of the Southern Isles."
"Again, not valid," said Seth, popping a hand up from where he was laying down.
"What's his favorite food?"
"Sandwiches."
"Valid."
"Eye color?"
"Dreamy!"
"Actually green."
"Foot size?"
"Foot size doesn't matter."
"It does when we both asked you that same question."
"Yeah, have you ever had a meal with him before? What if you hate the way he eats? What if you hate the way he picks his nose."
"'Picks his nose?'"
"And eats it!"
Alissa looked at him with wide eyes, "You have issues man."
"It doesn't matter, all men do it," said Kristoff.
Anna looked at Seth, and he said, "Don't look at me! I grew out of that!"
"Look, it doesn't matter, it's true love," said Anna.
"No it's nooooot!" sang Seth.
"Yeah, doesn't sound like true love," said Kristoff.
Just then, a sound was heard, and Eva's ears perked up. She looked out.
"Guys, sh! What is it partner?"
They looked in the distance, and saw a ball of sludge coming right at them!
"GO! NOW!"
The sludge hit the ground, and Seth said, "IT'S TEAM ROCKET AGAIN!"
Jessie, James and Meowth were riding on Weezing.
"Do those clowns know when to quit!?" asked Alissa.
"Not when Legendary Pokemon are around," said James.
"And we'll take them from you pound for pound!" said Jessie.
"We'll round them up, and make sure you're in the ground!" said Meowth.
"WOBBUFFET!" said Wobbuffet.
"Alright, Charizard, flame thower!"
"Gardivoir, psychic beam!"
Charizard came out, and he blasted flames at them, and Gardivoir launched a beam of pink energy at them.
They fell off, and Weezing fainted. Charizard was quick, and grabbed everyone off the ground, and over to another cliff. Sadly, the sledge broke off.
"But I just paid it off," said Kristoff.
"Sorry," said Seth, "At least Sven is here. He's irreplaceable."
Kristoff looked at him, and Seth said, "Okay, we'll just, go."
"I,I'll replace your sledge, and everything in it," said Anna, "I understand if you don't want to help us anymore."
Kristoff then looked at Sven, and he grunted at the others.
"Of course I don't want to help them. In fact, this whole thing has ruined me for helping anyone!"
"They'll die on their own!" said Kristoff as Sven.
"I can live with that."
"But you won't get your new sledge if they're dead."
Kristoff stared at him and said, "Sometimes I really don't like you. Hang on, we're coming!"
"Really?" asked Anna, "I mean, sure, I'll let you tag along!"
"You don't know where you're going, do you?" asked Seth.
"No," pouted Anna.
"We won't tell," said Seth.
"Eevoi!"
