Time rewind

Chapter 20

Agnarr POV

The chilling winds howls through my ears as we got near to the mountain, at least we thought it was as it was within our sight.

The temperature slowly decrease as we got near to it, I don't know where our destination would be but I hope that there would be some warmth nearby.

My scarf kept fluttering away from the harsh wind we were facing and soon we saw some light.

"Wandering oaken trading post?" I mumbled through my dry lips.

"And sauna? It looks too real to be true!" Iduna hit the northuldra pole in the grass which made a hard icy sound.

"Woo...let's go in guys!" Olaf then springs up and run towards the warm cottage.

Iduna went ahead, feeling desperately happy for warmth. It's only been half a day since we started our day and- actually we really needed warm from the cold, so I ain't complaining about this.

As we got in the cottage, we saw a really buff guy standing there.

"Yoo-Hoo! Welcome to my shop! Would you like to try my newly invented cold drops?" He said as he shake a bottle of medicine.

"Hey there! Is there any food available for 3?" Iduna point her toes to reach the counter top.

"Of course! Anything for my customers!" He then places out three plates of hot food.

"How do you live here? In such harsh coldness." I then touch the plate to warm my hands as Iduna and Olaf ate.

"I have my sauna!" He then showed us a room.

"Yoo-Hoo!" A man then shout from the sauna, half naked. I felt baffled by the lack of clothing and tried to cover her eyes.

"Yoo-Hoo!" Iduna waves back and slaps my hand away.

"Mr Wandering Oaken! Do you have any carrots, I have a reindeer friend who would like them." Olaf asked.

"Yah!....where is your reindeer then?" It doesn't seems that Oaken is affected by Olaf at all, I thought would be shocking to him.

"He isn't with us, but I think he might want some." Oaken nodded and threw the carrots in Olaf mouth.

"Don't tell you want to go up this mountain without any ride?" He asked with concern.

"Do you have any horses you could spare." I held my vest tighter toward me, keeping my body as warm as possible.

"A horse couldn't climb this mountain! Only reindeers can! I have two reindeer available with a sled."

"Could you give us one then? Plus the sled of course." Iduna asked.

"Ok! That would fifty!"

That is so expensive! That could probably rent a small cottage for months. Unfortunately I am short of money now.

"Can we bargain this out?"

"Oh dear! The reindeers are now in demand now, but you're nice, so I will make it a forty-nine. Yah?"

Yes, that how bad my bargain is.

"Hey maybe we can trade something?" Iduna then slams her things on the counter top.

"I only have thirty-five. Maybe we can trade something we have to replace the fourteen?" I dig my bag for the bag for the coin pouch.

"Show me what you got Yah? I am interested in what do you three have." He then cups his face.

We then dig our bag in and out, only to give him a small pickaxe.

"That pick would be worth five."

We are still short of nine, I was thinking of removing the carrots, since we wouldn't be returning to arendelle in anytime, but then Olaf jumps out and whispers to Oaken.

"Yah? That's sounds crazy, branch mixed with honey?"

"My secret recipe! It really taste good! I left some, here try it!" Olaf then raise the cup to oaken, who seem barely unwilling to drink.

However he drank it, to my surprise, somehow he doesn't seem happy nor sad about it.

"Mhhh, this taste brilliant! Yah? I will buy your recipe my dear snowman! And I am going to make it to its best taste!" That was really unexpected, I could see Iduna cringing at the deal Olaf and Oaken is making.

"You can take two reindeer! I will take the coins you offered, keep the axe, I have plenty Yah." He then threw the axe at me, which was quite dangerous but thanks to my reflex I could catch it, and he then swallow the coins in his pockets.

We kept our items in our bag and was ready to step out.

"The rider can't ride you up the north mountain now, do you know how to ride it?" Oaken asked.

"No worries, I know how to ride a sled." Iduna then winks back at Oaken which he return a hand signal.

"Wait when did you learn to ride a sled?" I said worryingly.

"Well...I don't, but I am not waiting for that rider to come back up, anyways I have experiences with reindeers." She hits my shoulders.

Olaf then started shouting from nowhere, I quickly follow his voice and saw him playing with the reindeers.

"Oh hello you two! I am Olaf and I love your warm licks!" Olaf giggles out as the reindeers continues to pamper him with their saliva.

Olaf then feed them carrots as Oaken came and toss us some ropes.

"Free gifts! It will help you climb up the north mountain! Olaf wait till you come back I will let you try the lemonade." Oaken then winks at Olaf.

I then climb in the sled while iduna settle the reindeers before jumping in.

"It's good to have a ride up, my legs are dying on me." As she organise the sled.

"Are you sure you know how to ride a sled? You look inexperienced." Iduna ignores me and started to move the sled and pulled Olaf in, we then waved goodbye to Oaken and his warm cottage is soon out of sight.

As we are riding the sled for a while, the fog thickens making it hard to see the surrounding. Iduna then decided to go slow to avoid any accident to happen.

"Stop! Wait!" We then heard someone yelling behind.

To my surprise we saw Elsa, Anna and Kristoff again with Sven pulling their ice sled.

"What are you doing here?"

End
