Okay so on fanfiction I've gotten 5 requests to continue my fic based on Within Temptation's The Promise. As আপনি know this was supposed to be a one-shot, but 5 requests...I couldn't ignore them! Anyhow for those of আপনি who don't remember this one was the fic about Icy and Raven; link if আপনি wanted to read/re-read it.

Two months prior:

The দিন was a chilly one in downtown Magix, trees adorned with leaves of the most brilliant স্বর্ণ and vibrant orange--a twinge of red here and there. It was on this day, sitting outside of an ice cream parlor as she waited for Raven that Icy met Flora. The girl seemed cheerful enough, standing দ্বারা a বেগুনি bush, humming merrily to herself. Despite the girl's demeanor she seemed a tad lonely. So Icy decided to strike up a conversation with her--waiting for Raven was getting to be a bore anyways...how long did it take the man to go in and order two ice cream cones!? Icy tapped Flora's shoulder, the girl jumped. "Didn't mean to startle you." Icy ব্যক্ত rather quickly.

"It's alright, startling me isn't that hard to do." Flora gave a small laugh.

"So...why are আপনি here all alone." Icy asked.

"I...don't...I'm really..."Flora started.

"Shy?" Icy filled in.

"Yeah..." Flora trailed off.

"Well Raven and I are going to see a movie, I'm sure he wouldn't mind আপনি coming along. And if he does. Well he shouldn't have taken so long to get out here." Icy grinned.

"I might as well, it's getting kind of cold out here anyways." Flora decided.

"Really? Can't tell." Icy shrugged.

"Well, আপনি are an ice...are আপনি a witch অথবা fairy?" Flora asked.

I smiled. "Either or, right now I'm attending a school for পরী back in the Ice Realm. But I know a fair amount of the dark arts."

"You on winter break অথবা something?" Flora asked.

"Every break is winter break in the Ice Realm. But দ্বারা all means if the planet was always froze it would be summer." Icy laughed.

"Makes sense to me. Limphea college is also on summer vacation." Flora replied. "I didn't really have much to do over there, so I decided to visit Magix."

"Then we'll be seeing a lot of each other." Icy said.

"I sure hope so. I could use a friend অথবা two. Maybe I'll find some আরো friends. Perhaps আপনি can introduce me to some of your friends?" Flora requested.

"Honestly, it's usually just me and Raven. I talk to a number of people here an there, but Raven is really the only person I know well." Icy admitted. Raven stepped out of the ice cream parlor. "Well, what took আপনি so long?"

"It was super crowded, the waitress was slow, she got my order wrong, and there was this strange girl asking me about hearts..." Raven ব্যক্ত without a pause. He took a deep breath and let it out.

Icy's expression grew momentarily dark at the mention of the strange girl. "She asked আপনি about hearts...a heart?"

Raven thought back. "Yup, something about a হৃদয় that is ফ্রোজেন through and through. ব্যক্ত she wanted it, even if she had to yank it out of someone."
