"I've set it to head for Lord Ice's land," Yeti said with a wave of his hand off in a general direction. "All you have to do is sit down, and I'll get it going. Whatever you do, don't everyone get off it before you get there, though.

Flash Fiction # 398 -- Lost in Elsewhere/Part 8
Sometime later, I blinked.The world had settled, the colors were back to normal, and everything was quiet. I was grateful for the return to normality.Well, not complete return. We were still lost in Elsewhere, I remembered. I turned my head enough to realize that I was in a room made of ice -- walls of ice, shelves of ice, and even the slab of the bed made of ice, but I was not cold. I

Flash Fiction # 397 -- Lost in Elsewhere/Part 7
Edmond tried to make a turn in mid-flight. He bounced off the wall to the right, and for a brief second I saw claws reach --
I was already on the move as well. So, I realized, were Maggie and Lord Snow. It was a small area, and I feared we were going to trample over each other in our attempts to save Edmond and Five.
I caught Five, startling her into a hiss and bite -- but I got her.

Flash Fiction #396 -- Lost in Elsewhere/Part 6
The Yeti howled even after Edmond let go of his ear.
The ice beneath our feet cracked in a pretty spider-web design.
We were all going to fall and die.
Maggie tried to create more magic, but she was weak. Five hid in my pocket. Edmond held to Yeti fur as the creature started jumping up and down.
I panicked — and I did the one thing I do well.
"Stop!" I shouted.
Everything

Wall of snow, meet my face.I had just enough time to close my mouth, or I would have been inhaling more snow. It was lucky for me that the wall was firm snow, but not ice.I don't like snow.My hands moved instinctively, and I grabbed at the wall when I started to slide downward. Snow began to crumble, and I couldn't get a grasp on the fluffy white stuff. I was going to fall again, and
