The car noises stop suddenly and you can't see well enough to find it in the falling snow and wind whirling everything it can in circles around you and your friends' faces. You squint desperately but see nothing except the white snow in every direction. You stumble forward with your friends on your heels. You suddenly see a shape through the swirling snow. A cabin!
"Guys!" you shout. "Over there!"
You point, and Lila and Lucas look. They brighten slightly.
"Come on! Let's go!" Lila shouts, running ahead.
"Wait up!" Lucas screams at her, breaking into a run. You follow after, soon overtaking them due to your longer legs. All three of you burst into the cabin, where a fire is burning in the fireplace and mugs of hot chocolate are sitting on the table, steaming. An old, gray-haired man sat on a couch, staring at you and your friends warmly.
"Hello children," he murmurs, standing. "I've been expecting you."
"You have?" you ask, surprised. "How did you know we were coming?"
The man smiled.
