Chapter 3 The Cookie Train
Part 1
Ice Fairy's pov
I wait in the same room I have met the crazy geezer before.
Meanwhile I try my ice powers. I think I am quite good. The miniature ice castle in front of me is quite exquisite. It has everything: A waterslide from the bedroom into the kitchen, a pet dragon with two catana instead of its hands, an underground unicorn stable with automatic elevator and of course a pond with mermen, who read every wish of my eyes.
It is how a castle should be and it doesn't look like the castle of the fairy queen, I got my clothes from.
The castle of the fairy queen is a bigger house with only one tower.
One tower!
I believe the worth of a castle isn't proportional to the number of towers, but one tower! This is really a joke.
I even saw the frozen queen. She sits in her throne looking down on everyone.
Her appearance is really arrogant with her golden dress, perfect brown hair and her beautiful face. The whole look says: I am better than you.
She will have quite a shock when she wakes up. I painted her a moustache and some glasses with permanent marker....
Maybe you look better than me but I am not frozen....
Then I found the king... What a stud!....He has an intelligent face, Abs you want to bite a piece off and his hair, oh these perfect hair! If only every man had such hair.
His majesty would always be allowed to come into my castle....
In the queens dress room I found a black and white dress which matched my hair colour. It looks pretty on me and after changing running was much easier.
I wonder why the queen has something like this. It wouldn't have matched her style anyways.....No fashion sense...
I am working on the unibot for my castle (a unicorn which can transform into a robot) when the old geezer walks in. He has a desperate expression and looks in all directions. He doesn't have his stick with him.....strange...
(Crazy geezer, desperately)
"Ice Fairy, have you seen Tom? He is missing. He is as big as this, has a big hat and holds a spear. He hasn't ever been out as long as this.... "
The hat in my pocket becomes heavier and heavier. Should I tell him? He will look for Tom forever if I don't say anything. What devil has ridden me to eat his most precious child. I am the proof: A fairy is evil since birth. Why couldn't I only resist?

No, I can't tell him.
I am only a few hours old and I am too young to be thrown out of the house and if I say nothing he will search forever...I can't watch this...
Let's play for time for now:
(I, Ice Fairy)
"Is he made of candy, has a smile you can't resist and wants to help everyone?"
(crazy geezer)
"Yes, yes, yes have you seen him?"
(I, Ice Fairy)
"I think I saw him at the palace, but he told me in secret that he needed some distance for a while."
(crazy geezer)
"O hush, he wasn't ever like this. Let's go and talk to him about his problem."
(I, Ice fairy)
"You can't, because ......... to be completely honest he wanted to surprise you with a grandchild."
(crazy geezer)
"Really? A grandchild? He wants to make me grandpa? He should have the skills although I don't think he has enough rat brain for the head....
O my....Child, why are you so pale?"
(I, Ice Fairy)
"What exactly does he need rat brain for?"
(old geezer)
"You know, the brain is the most complicated part in a gingerbread soldier's body and I haven't found a way to create it just with gum. So I used parts of a preserved rat brain.
Are you sick? Don't you feel good?"
(I, Ice fairy)
"I feel fine."
I swallow some puke and force myself to keep it in my stomach. We wouldn't want a reunion with Tom just now.
I force my attention with tears in my eyes at the old geezer
(I, Ice Fairy)
"Anyway don't tell your wife. It should be a surprise. Besides, where is she?"
(crazy geezer)
"Pa! she is with her astrologer 'Wilson'. Can you understand why someone believes in this hokus pokus? Such nonsense. Who believes in all this superstition? I, myself, am with both feet on the ground and only believe what I can proof.....Although this Wilson guy knows quite a lot about the main land....."
(I, Ice Fairy)
"What is the main land? Has the main land something to do with all the ice?"
(crazy geezer)
"I am not sure.....Let's go to the place I have prepared. This place hasn't the right Feng Shui, besides I made some food for you together with the gingerbread men."
When I heard the 2 words (gingerbread and food) in one sentence it gave me the rest. I jumped up and ran outside. I threw up the content of my stomach behind some rose bushes....

Oh, there you are, Tom!
The old geezer ran after me but he didn't leave the house.
(crazy geezer, helpful)
"Are you Okay? Have you eaten something wrong in the palace? Maybe your stomach can't handle the cold foot..."
(I, Ice Fairy, weak)
"I am Okay. Let's go inside."
We go inside.
Part 2
Ice Fairy's pov
Better feng shui? For heavy stuff??
We sit in a wagon of something which can be best described as a 'cookie train'. The train isn't higher than a person. Its wagon only has space for 2 benches and 1 table.
The whole thing is made out of gingerbread, but it doesn't stop there.
It goes around a city made of sweets. The whole thing is located under the house of the crazy geezer.
This old man really has too much time on hand and a problem with sweets. Hasn't he ever heard something about diabetes? Maybe not.... me neither but I know about it none the less.
The town is empty. I suspect that gingerbread men are a bit more complicated than a town to create.
In front of me stands a bowl with fruits and one with vegetables (All fairies have been vegetarian since ancient times, because the animal fairies were a pain in the neck with their demonstrations.)
At the side of the veggies is a bowl with sweets.
I push it gently aside. I have had enough sweets for one day.
Although I just puked, I am pretty hungry. Hm, looks like I have a pretty good stomach... I start munching the vegetables.
(crazy geezer)
"What do you think about my 'serious place'?"
(I, Ice Fairy, with a full mouth)
"Hay ish i halled 'heriouh plae'?"
(crazy geezer)
"I called it this way because the feng shui takes away the weight of a topic."
Makes sense in a weird way but maybe I am the crazy one and not him. I have never thought about it this way...
Anyways first things first:
(I, Ice Fairy, swallowed)
"Could you tell me why nearly everyone is an ice sculpture while I am eating?"
(crazy geezer)
"Hm there is not much to explain, because we, the remaining few, don't know very much about what happened.
500 years ago all happened in a flash. One moment all was normal and in the next moment everywhere was ice."
(I, Ice Fairy)
"Really? This can't be all. Haven't the surviving fairies investigated?
(crazy geezer)
"Sure we have, but you must know that only a few ice fairies were skilled enough to keep the control over their body and their senses while being frozen.
For example my body is as hard frozen as the body of the Queen in her castle. I only use my ice abilities to move it.
To unfreeze a fairy without killing it or at least not causing any brain damage is next to impossible.
A light fairy might be able to pull it off using infrared light and microwaves all over the body at once but only the ice fairies are able to move right now.
In the end only 10 were skilled enough to remain conscience and able to move.
From these 10 5 went to the mainland to investigate the cause and for a cure but they never came back."
(I, Ice Fairy)
"What is the mainland?"
(Crazy geezer)
“It’s a place deeply linked to our island. We gave this place the seasons. Seasons are …It doesn’t matter anymore… It is a big land where all sorts of weather patterns were controlled by the fairies.
(I, Ice Fairy)
"Maybe I should go there. Here is no one anymore and I think it will be quite boring.
What happened to the other 4 ice fairies?"
(crazy geezer)
"They went into hibernation chambers. So they can sleep and then are able to wake up again.
They wake up every 50 years and have a talk with me. They are quite nice guys. Although they are not very fond of my wife. I’ll show them to you later.
I am the only fairy who is awake all the time."
This poor old man was all these years alone. His only companions were the ginger bread soldiers.
He had no one to talk to. So he made his fantasy wife. No wonder he became crazy and his friends or colleagues aren't very fond of his wife.
He waited for so long and what does he get in the end? An ice fairy who eats his child. What a miserable fate.
(I, Ice Fairy)
"That's quite lonely......."
(Cookie train)
"Tuuuut tuuuuut"
part 3
Behind some rosebushes
Lightening comes out of a brown, white mass. It begins to glow in a blue tone. Then it rearranges its mass to define the rough shape of a gingerbread soldier. The mass holds its form passionately. It lies on the floor until it is frozen solid. Then the new man shaped thing stands up and walks away into the bushes.
