"It's been a long day, Raven. Come on! Let's go play in the snow!" Maddie jumped around excitedly, her little hat on her head bouncing this way and that. Maddie Hatter walked Raven Queen outside of the school, hoping to interest her in a little snowball fight,
"But you know how much I hate getting-" A snowball slapped Raven in the face, wetting her shirt, "wet."
"Hee hee hee!" Kitty giggled from on top of a large tree,
"Oh it is on like fairy song!" Raven laughed as she conjured a snowball from her hand and tossed it at Kitty,
"Yay! Yipee!" Maddie jumped and laughed, "Snowball fight!"
"Come on, Maddie, you need to make some snowballs yourself, you can't just jump around like that!" Raven giggled as she threw another snowball,
"Oh no, no! You need to do this the Wonderland way!" Maddie removed her hat, scooped up some snow, and spoke a little rhyme. From her hat rose hundreds of snowballs. Madd pointed at Kitty, guffawing, "Get her!" And with that, all the snowballs flew towards Kitty, pummeling her one by one.
"Nice one, Maddie!" Raven laughed, as she watched Kitty fumble about trying to deflect the snowballs, "Hey look at that snow mound! We can make a fort! Here, Maddie, clear that mound and move the snow over there."
"You betcha!" Maddie saluted to Raven, and began to clear the mound of snow, and what was under the snow, made her jump up and scream, "RAVEN! RAVEN RAVEN RAVEN!"
"What?"
"YOU WILL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT'S UNDER THAT SNOW MOUND!" Raven raised a puzzled eyebrow and marched over to the mound of snow. In the middle sat a big chunk of ice, big enough to encase a person.
"All I see is a chunk of ice."
"No! Look closer!" Maddie was flailing her arms about, screaming and jumping.
"I don't see..." Raven overlooked the chunk of ice, and gasped, "Oh my gods! Kitty! Stop firing! Look at this!"
"What in Wonderland? How did that get there?" Kitty scratched her head, "Can you melt it, Raven?"
"I think I can. We were learning about heat spells in Magicology." Raven closed her eyes. Concentrate! She thought, as she pointed her palms to the chunk of ice. You can do this!
"Ooh! Oooh! Kitty! Look! Look! Fire!" Maddie jumped around and squeaked. She pulled Earl Grey off her shoulder and squealed, "You see that, Earl Grey? Fire!"
The ice slowly, ever so slowly, melted from Raven's spell. Once the spell was finished, Raven was exhausted.
"Pant... Pant... It's harder... Than... It looks..." Raven straightened up, "Now to talk to that girl in the ice."
"Um... She looks. Pretty... Asleep?" Maddie tilted her head.
"Well maybe if we can just..." Kitty poked the girls face in curiosity,
"Hey! Cut that out Kitty! Call Briar. She knows about sleeping curses. Not me." Raven crossed her arms. Kitty smiled devilishly as she turned invisible,
"Yes, your evil majesty." Kitty laughed as she walked away, out of sight.
"Briar. Briar! Psst! Briar!" Kitty crawled into Briar's room, where Briar was adjusting her hair in a mirror, "BRIAR!"
Oh, I know what will catch your attention. Kitty smirked. She crept out the window, collected some snow, and WHAP! Kitty's snowball hit Briar in the head.
"KITTY! I KNOW THAT'S YOU!" Briar yelled.
"Ha ha ha ha!" Kitty chuckled as she dropped to the floor, becoming visible again.
"Now what do you want."
"Raven... Needs a bit of your... Expertise."
"Briar! Great!" Raven grinned.
"So glad to see you!" Maddie chimed in.
"You guys cost me my hairdo!" Briar pouted at Kitty, "And I was so close to finally fixing that lump of hair at the back of my head."
"You look fine, Briar. Anyway, can you tell us if this girl is in a sleeping curse?"
"Girl? What- OH CURSES WHAT IN -"
"Briar!" Kitty snapped, "Keep it together." Briar inched towards the girl that was trapped in the ice, poking her skin, observing her eyes, checking for heat.
"She's preeety frozen. I can't really tell if it's a sleeping curse just yet, but I think she's just frozen for now."
"Okay. Good. Let's take her to my dorm. I can light the fireplace."
