Marshmallow grabbed the unwanted visitors and tossed them down the icy steps. "Go home!" roared the snowman.
But Olaf remained in Marshmallow's arms, having come apart with all the jostling ."You are a lot stronger than I think you realize," he told the snow giant.
Marshmallow howled and threw Olaf, one piece at a time, down the mountain.
"Heads up!" Olaf's head shouted as it soared past Anna and Kristoff.
The head crashed into a snowbank.
"Olaf!" cried Anna, racing over to Olaf's head. "Watch out for my butt!" he warned.
Anna and Kristoff jumped out of the way just as the rest of Olaf's body slammed into the snowbank.
Anna picked up a handful of snow and molded it into a ball. Then she flung it at the huge snowman.
"It's not nice to throw people!" she shouted angrily.
Marshmallow roared — and charged after them! "All right, feisty-pants," Kristoff said to Anna.
"Now you made him mad!"
"I'll distract him," Olaf said. "You guys go!" Olaf's belly and butt took off in opposite directions.
"No, not you guys!" he yelled to the two body balls, then sighed. "This just got a lot harder."
Anna and Kristoff slid down the mountain. When they reached the bottom, Marshmallow was already there!
"Look out!" Kristoff called.
They quickly got up and ran through a maze of trees and snowbanks, with Marshmallow close behind them.
"This way!" Anna shouted. She grabbed a stick and knocked the heavy snow off a tree. With the extra weight lifted, the tree snapped upright and knocked Marshmallow back. Anna and Kristoff laughed and ran ahead of the snowman. But Marshmallow was not giving up.
Anna and Kristoff continued to run until they reached the edge of a steep cliff.
"Whoa, stop!" Kristoff yelled.
Anna peered over the edge. "It's a hundred-foot drop," she said.
"It's two hundred," he countered. Taking a rope, Kristoff tied a loop around Anna's waist. Then he dug a U shape in the snow.
"What's that for?" Anna asked.
"I'm digging a snow anchor," Kristoff told her. "Okay. What if we fall?" Anna said. She looked over the edge again.
"There's twenty feet of fresh powder down there," he answered. "It'll be like landing on a pillow." He paused, and then added, "Hopefully."
Anna's eyes widened.
Kristoff tied off the rope in the snow anchor. "Okay, Anna," he said. "On three..."
Anna moved closer to the edge.
"One, two... ," Kristoff counted. Just then, a tree sailed through the air. Marshmallow had thrown it at them!
"Tree!" Anna yelled. She jumped over the cliff, pulling Kristoff with her.
"What? Whoa!" Kristoff hollered as the two plummeted. Seconds later, the rope caught their fall and they were dangling in mid air.
At that moment, Olaf emerged from the trees, a complete mess. His body parts were in the wrong order as he staggered toward the cliff.
"Oh, man, I am out of shape," he mumbled, winded from the chase. He quickly put himself back together properly. "There we go," he said. "Hey, Anna! Kristoff! Where'd you guys go?" He searched all around. "We totally lost Marshmallow back there!"
Marshmallow stepped forward and stood behind Olaf.
Olaf peered up and smiled. "Hey, we were just talking about you," he said. "All good things, all good things," he quickly added.
The big snowman roared and went for the snow anchor that held Kristoff and Anna. Olaf took action and jumped onto Marshmallow's leg. "No!" he shouted. Realizing he was no match for the giant, Olaf shrugged. "This is not making much of a difference, is it?"
Marshmallow shook off the little snowman and kicked him over the edge of the cliff. Olaf flew past the dangling Anna and Kristoff.
"Hang in there, guys!" he called.
A tug on the rope told Anna and Kristoff that Marshmallow was pulling them back up to the ledge! They started spinning out of control. Kristoff reached down for Anna and hit his head on the cliff.
"Ugh!" he shouted.
Marshmallow pulled them almost to the top. "Don't come back!" he bellowed.
"We won't!" Anna answered. She reached up and cut the rope with a knife. She and Kristoff fell down, down, down... and landed in a deep pile of soft snow.
Suddenly, everything was quiet. "Hey, you were right," Anna said, sitting up and shaking the snow out of her hair. "Just like a pillow!" She looked over and saw Olaf.
"I can't feel my legs!" Olaf screamed, panicking as he stared at two feet coming through the snow in front of him. "I can't feel my legs!"
"That's because those are my legs," Kristoff said, sitting up just behind Olaf.
Suddenly, Olaf's lower body came running over. "Oh, hey," Olaf said to Kristoff. "Do me a favor and grab my butt."
Kristoff took Olaf's chatty head and slammed it onto his body.
"Oh, that feels better," Olaf said happily.
Sven walked over and sniffed Olaf's carrot nose. "Hey, Sven!" Olaf greeted the reindeer and then turned toward Anna and Kristoff just before Sven could bite the carrot. "He found us!" He looked back at Sven. "Who's my cute little reindeer?" he cooed.
Kristoff pulled Olaf away from Sven. "Don't talk to him like that."
Then Kristoff went to help Anna. "You okay?" he asked, pulling her out of the snow.
"Whoa! Strong man," Anna said. "Okay, thank you." Anna's and Kristoff's eyes met. They held the gaze for a long moment and then looked away.
"How's your head?" Anna asked. She touched the spot where Kristoff had banged his head on the cliff. "Ow!" he shouted. "I mean... it's fine. I've got a thick skull." Anna giggled.
"I don't have a skull," Olaf remarked. "Or bones." "So now what?" Kristoff asked Anna.
The question sent Anna into a panic. "I don't know! What am I going to do? Elsa threw me out, I can't go back to Arendelle with the weather like this, and then there's your ice business..."
Kristoff felt bad for Anna, but he knew panicking wouldn't help. He tried to steer her back to their current situation. "Hey, don't worry about my ice business," he told her. "Worry about your hair."
Anna's hands flew to her head and she tried to smooth down her hair. "What? I just fell off a cliff," she said. "You should see your hair."
"No, yours is turning white," he said, concerned. "White?" Anna cried. She grabbed her long braid just as another section of hair lost its color.
"It's because she struck you with her powers, isn't it?" Kristoff asked.
"Does it look bad?"
Kristoff thought for a moment. "No," he said. Olaf popped up. "You hesitated," he said.
"No, I didn't," Kristoff said. He knew that Anna needed help. And he knew where to go — and who to ask. "Come on."
"Okay! Where are we going?" Olaf asked. "To see my friends," Kristoff said.
Anna's eyebrows rose up. "The love experts?" Olaf was surprised. "Love experts?"
"Yes," Kristoff answered. "They'll be able to fix this."
Anna followed Kristoff and Sven, with Olaf trailing behind. "How can you be so sure?" she asked.
"Because I've seen them do it before."
"I like to consider myself a love expert," Olaf said sweetly.
棉花糖抓起这些不速之客，顺着冰台阶扔了下去。“滚回家!”雪人咆哮道。
但雪宝还在棉花糖的胳膊上，由于各种推挤，雪宝的身体分了家。“你可比我想象中要健壮多了。”他对这个巨雪人说道。
棉花糖怒吼着，将雪宝的身体一部分一部分地扔下了山。
“小心!”雪宝的头飞过安娜和克斯托夫时大喊道。
他的头栽进了一片雪堆里。
“雪宝!”安娜叫到，赶忙跑到雪宝的头边。“小心我的屁股!”雪宝提醒道。
安娜和克斯托夫闪到一边，雪宝头部以下的部分也飞了过来砸进了雪堆里。
安娜抓了一把雪，然后团成雪球，扔向这个雪巨人。
“你怎么可以这样把人到处乱扔!”她生气地喊道。
棉花糖咆哮一声，开始愤怒地追赶他们!“这下好了吧，让你好斗。”克斯托夫对安娜喊道。
“你把他惹急了!”
“我来引开他，”雪宝说，“你们快走!”雪宝的肚子和屁股分别朝相反的方向跑开了。
“不，不是说你们!”他冲自己的身体——分开的两个雪球大喊，叹了口气：“比我想象的要难多了。”
安娜和克斯托夫沿着山向下滑。当他们到达山脚的时候，棉花糖已经在那儿了!
“小心!”克斯托夫喊道。
他们连忙起来，跑进了一片雪林，棉花糖在他们身后紧追不舍。
“走这边!”安娜喊道。她抓住一根树枝，树上厚厚的雪抖落了下来。她突然一松手，树枝失去了外部施加的力量立刻向上弹了回去，正好打在棉花糖的背上。安娜和克斯托夫大笑着超过了雪人。但棉花糖仍然穷追不舍。
安娜和克斯托夫一直跑到了陡峭的悬崖边。
“哇，快停下!”克斯托夫连忙喊。
安娜看了一眼悬崖，说道：“这有一百英尺高啊。”
“两百英尺吧。”他反驳道。克斯托夫将绳子系在了安娜的身上，在雪地里挖了一个U字形。
“这用来干吗?”安娜问道。
“我在挖一个雪锚，固定绳子。”克斯托夫跟安娜说。“好吧，”安娜说，“万一掉下去怎么办?”她又看了看悬崖。
“下面的雪层有二十英尺深呢，像新鲜的面粉一样。”他回答道，“足以让你感觉像掉在枕头上。”他停顿了一下，补充了一句：“但愿如此吧。”
安娜瞪大了眼睛。
克斯托夫将绳子固定在雪锚上。“好了，安娜，”他说，“我数到三……”
安娜靠近了悬崖边。
“一、二……”克斯托夫数道。这时，一棵连根拔起的树飞了过来，是棉花糖扔过来的!
“树!”安娜喊道。她跳下了悬崖，克斯托夫也被她带着飞下了悬崖。
两人垂直落了下去。“啊?嚯!”克斯托夫大声喊道。几秒钟之后，绳子拉住了他们，他们都悬在了半空中。
这时，雪宝一团糟地从树林里走了出来。他摇摇晃晃地朝悬崖边走去，身体各部分的位置已经完全不对了。
“哦，我的造型全乱了。”他嘟囔着，好不容易摆脱了巨雪人的追逐。他很快把自己的身体各部位摆回了原位。“这样行了，”他说，“嘿，安娜!克斯托夫!你们到哪儿去了?”他四下寻找着，说道：“我们彻底甩掉棉花糖啦!”
棉花糖往前挪了一步，正好站在了雪宝身后。
雪宝抬头一看，笑着说：“嘿，我们正说你呢。”他立马补充说：“说的都是好话，都是好话。”
巨雪人怒吼了一声，弯下身去够拴着克斯托夫和安娜的绳子。雪宝见状立马跳上了棉花糖的腿，想要拖住他。“不!”他大叫一声。可他意识到了自己根本不是棉花糖的对手，只能耸耸肩说：“这么做好像没多大用处，是吗?”
棉花糖抖了抖，甩开了雪宝，把他踢下了悬崖。雪宝从悬在空中的安娜和克斯托夫头上飞过。
“坚持住啊，伙计们!”他喊道。
绳子在被往上拽，安娜和克斯托夫感觉到了棉花糖正在把他们拉上去!他们开始失控地旋转起来。克斯托夫伸手拉住安娜，他的头磕到了岩石上。
“啊!”他大喊道。
棉花糖快将他们拉到山上了。“不许再回来!”他怒吼道。
“我们不会的!”安娜说着抬起手来，用刀一下割断了绳子。她和克斯托夫坠了下去，一直向下……最后掉在了厚厚的、松软的雪堆上。
突然，一切都静悄悄的。“嘿，你说得没错。”安娜说着，坐了起来，抖了抖头发上的雪。“真像个枕头!”她四下环顾，看见了雪宝。
“我的腿没有知觉了!”雪宝看着自己前方雪地里露出的两只脚尖叫道，“我的腿没有知觉了!”
“因为那是我的脚。”克斯托夫从雪宝身后坐了起来。
突然，雪宝的下半身自己跑了过来。“嘿，”雪宝对克斯托夫说，“快帮我个忙，抓住我的屁股。”
克斯托夫拿起雪宝爱啰唆的脑袋，安在了他的身子上。
“哦，感觉好多了。”雪宝开心地说道。
斯特跑了过来，嗅了嗅雪宝的胡萝卜鼻子。“嘿，斯特!”雪宝亲热地跟驯鹿打招呼。还没等斯特咬到他的鼻子，他转向安娜和克斯托夫说：“他找到我们了!”他又扭过头来看着斯特。“谁是我可爱的小驯鹿啊?”他轻轻地说道。
克斯托夫把雪宝从斯特身边拉开：“别那么跟他说话。”
克斯托夫走向安娜，把她从雪地里拉了出来，问：“你还好吧?”
“嚯!大力士呀，”安娜说，“没事，谢谢你。”安娜和克斯托夫四目交接。两人对视了一会儿，然后都看向了别处。
“你的头怎样了?”安娜问，她用手碰了碰克斯托夫头上刚才磕到的地方。“啊!”他大叫一声，“我是说，没事的。我的头骨硬得很呢。”安娜咯咯地笑了。
“我就没有头骨，”雪宝说，“骨头也没有。”“我说现在怎么办呢?”克斯托夫问安娜。
这个问题让安娜惊慌了。“我也不知道!我该怎么办?艾莎把我赶出了宫殿，冬天不结束，我不能就这样回艾伦戴尔，而且还有你的冰块生意……”
克斯托夫很担心安娜，但他知道慌乱也没用。他试图将安娜拉回到眼前的情况。“嘿，别操心我的冰块生意了。”他跟安娜说。“天哪，你的头发。”
安娜用手指抓抓头，试图整理头发。“怎么了?我刚从悬崖上摔下来，”她说，“看看你自己的头发。”
“不，你的头发变白了。”他忧虑地说。“白了?”安娜叫了出来。她抓起长长的发辫，又有一部分头发变白了。
“是因为艾莎用魔法击中了你，是吗?”克斯托夫问。
“看上去很难看吗?”
克斯托夫犹豫了几秒：“不难看。”雪宝冒了出来说：“你犹豫了。”
“我才没有呢。”克斯托夫说。他知道安娜需要帮助。而且他知道应该去哪儿——向谁求助。“跟我来。”
“好的!我们要去哪儿?”雪宝问。“去找我的朋友们。”克斯托夫说。
安娜挑起了眉，问道：“那些爱情专家?”雪宝很惊讶，重复道：“爱情专家?”
“是的，”克斯托夫回答说，“他们一定能搞定的。”
安娜跟着克斯托夫和斯特，雪宝跟在后面。“你怎么这么确定?”她问。
“因为我看见他们这么做过。”
“我觉得我自己就是个爱情专家。”雪宝甜甜地说。
