Frozen III: The Spirit, The Guardian, and The Pirate

Chapter 2: Ankomst (Arrival)

"Are they all gone?" John had asked after catching his breath, as Johannes looked around the area of his pirate ship. The black sand was littered all around his ship that was the result of killing off the black sand horses that attacked them out of nowhere.

Johannes sighed, holding his chest with one hand and nodded. "Yes, I think they're gone."

The wind is still not slowing down, which is questionable considering that the sand should've flown away by now. "Strange," Johannes thought out loud, kneeling down to the black sand.

He licked his finger, and carefully grazed it against the black sand on the ground, feeling it's unusual texture. He raised an eyebrow as he retreated his finger, but no trace of the black sand stayed on his wet finger.

"Where could all the sand be coming from? We're literally high up north, far away from the nearest desert that could've caused all this," John said while scratching the back of his head.

Johannes stood back up his feet and slapped John lightly on his shoulder. "That's no ordinary sand John," he said with a small frown, wiping the finger he used with his jacket. "It's magical."

The wind still roared against them, as none had spoken a word, trying to shake off the sudden events that had occured. Suddenly, there was this strange jingling coming from somewhere, and Johannes looked around him to try and find it's source.

"Do you hear that?" Johannes asked, loud enough for his men to hear, as the sound only grew louder and louder.

"Uh, Captain," John said beside him, pointing towards the sky. Johannes looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "What?" he questioned.

John had grabbed Johannes's chin and tilted it toward where he's pointing, as he had to practically blink twice to know that what he's now seeing isn't some hallucination.

There's a giant sleigh hovering mid air with a group of magical reindeers that is coming towards their ship. The sleigh is fighting the roaring winds that are still present, as Johannes even scratched his eyes just to make sure.

"Blimey, is that Santa Claus?" One of the older crew members joked with a fake gasp, making everyone laugh.

As the sleigh got closer and closer and as his men continued to joke over some childish legends, Johannes had realized that the sleigh is never going to stop, or more to the point the sleigh intends to land on this ship.

"Men! Get away-"

But it was too late for his crew below the deck, as the sleigh landed harshly on his ship, nearly breaking the old wood in the process. Johannes had growled under his breath in anger, his brows knitting tightly.

The roaring wind slowly stopped, as Johannes made his way towards the lower deck, with John trailing closely from behind. The sleigh had several creatures on board, blurting out panicked apologies to whoever is near them.

"We're so sorry, it was all North's idea," the huge bunny had spoken, gesturing his paws towards the old man in front of the sleigh, who is probably North, and is also in charge of riding the sleigh itself and crashing it on Johannes's ship.

Then, there's this other creature with a human-like face, but it has wings on the back as if it's a fairy. Also judging by it's looks, this creature is presumably a humanoid hummingbird.

"Also Bunny was being dumb and basically shouted that we're all going to die," the flying fairy had said, gesturing towards the rabbit.

Bunny, Johannes made a mental note, as he had prepared his sword while walking towards them.
