Speaker 1 (00:31):
Enough about that, let's get too today's super Live Ay
Lewis story. Snowflakes swirled through the air as Levi and
Ivy watched from their playroom window with wide eyes and
huge smiles. The world outside had been transformed into a
frozen wonderland filled with possibilities. But more importantly, they had
(00:52):
just heard the one thing that every kid wants to
hear in the wintertime on a school day. Hey, friends,
do you know what that is? No school?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
It's a snow day, called.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Out Levi and Ivy's mom from the living room as
she watched the local news. A joyful sound of cheering
and applauset reupted it from the playroom as Levi and
Ivy ran through the house excitedly jumping all around.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
This is what I wished for last night, exclaimed Ivy.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I made a wish on a store before he fell
asleep last night, and my wish came true.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
No way. Levi chimed in. I made the same wish.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
As Levi and his sister laughed over their wishes coming true,
they didn't realize that their dad had overheard them. Wow,
are you too serious, heyes, sounding very excited for them. Yeah, Dad, why,
Ivy asked that she took another look out the window
at the snow piling up in her backyard. I heard
when I was a kid that if you were lucky
enough to wish on the snowstar for snow, and your
(01:49):
wish comes true, that your snowday will be filled with magic,
said Levi and Ivy's dad with a big smile. At least,
that's what my grandma used to tell me, and ever
since she did. Every winter night when I was a kid,
I would wish on a star that it would snow,
just hoping it was the snowstar and that my wish
would come true. I guess you'll just have to wait
and see if you wished on the right star. Levi
(02:11):
and Ivey's dad stared off into the distance as if
he was remembering something very special and close to his heart.
So said Levi, interrupting his dad's deep thought. Did it
ever happen for you, yad, Dad? Did you ever wish
on the snowstar and have a magical snow day? Added Ivy. Oh, yes,
said Levi and Ivy's dad. Just one time. It was
(02:33):
purely by luck, as it always is. That I picked
the snowstar one night when I was just about your age.
Then the next day I woke up to a neighborhood
full of snow and a day I would never forget.
Levi and Ivy didn't take their eyes off their dad
as he told them all about his magical winter adventure.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
They could have not been more interested.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
It was pretty amazing, said Levi and Ivy's dad, pouring
himself a cup of coffee and taking a seat to
the table. So how do we know of one of
us or both of us wished on the snowstar last night,
asked Ivy. I mean there are millions of stars in
the sky. How do we know if we were looking
at the right one when we made our wish. Oh,
you'll know, said their dad with a knowing laugh. You'll
(03:14):
definitely know if you wished on the snowstar. The snow
will let you know. You just have to be outside
to hear it. Levi and Ivy didn't let one more
minute pass that they raced upstairs to get dressed for
the day.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Magical snow day or not.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
You still have to eat breakfast and brush your teeth,
called Levi and Ivy's mom as they ran out of
the kitchen. As they got ready upstairs in their room,
Levi and Ivy shouted back and forth to each other
what they hoped for if they were lucky enough to
get a magical snow day. I'd love if all the
snow turned into marshmallows, said Ivy as she put on
her big fluffy socks. That would be awesome, replied Levi
(03:50):
as he looked for his snow gloves in the closet.
I would love if every time we went sledding, we
could snap our fingers and be transported back to the
top of the hill. Walking all the way back up
every time makes me so tired. Good one, said Ivy.
What if the snow was bouncy like giant winter trampoline,
or the trees were filled.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
With snow cones instead of icicles, said Levi.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Or the snow wasn't cold but instead nice and warm,
so we could stay out all day without getting frozen toes,
added Ivy. I think we should go outside and see
if any of this actually happens, laugh Levia's. He stood
in front of Ivy's bedroom door. Sounds good to me,
said Ivy, But as they started to head downstairs, Levi
stopped his sister and said, Hey, Ivy, just remember, even
(04:35):
if we didn't wish on the snow star last night
and we don't get a magical snow day, it's still
a snow day and we'll have fun together. Totally replied Ivy.
But I'm really hoping for a little bit of magic
me too, with said Levi's He and Ivy ran down
the stairs. They did have to stop for breakfast and
of course brush their teeth, but before they knew it,
they were outside, completely outfitted for a day in the
(04:57):
snow and warm coats.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Hats, scarves, gloves, and boots.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
They each took their first steps into the soft, sparkling
snow cautiously and very quietly. They didn't know how the
snow was going to tell them if they were about
to have a magical day, but they certainly didn't want
to miss it. I'm so excited for them, thought Levi
and Ivy's dad as he watched them from his office window.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
I hope they wish on the snowstar. But the only
way they'll know.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
For sure is if they stay outside and wait for
a sign. He stepped away from the window and turned
his attention to his work, as Levi and Ivy's mom
did the same. While outside in the backyard, Levi and
Ivy were busy looking and listening for any signs of magic. However,
all they heard was the sound of thousands of snowflakes
lightly landing on the ground around them.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
What do we do now, asked Levi in a whisper.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
I think we should just do what we normally do,
like it was a normal snow day, said Ivy. And
if something magic is supposed to happen, it will, like
you said, Even if we didn't wish on the snowstar
and we don't get a magical snow day, it's still
a snow.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Day and we'll have fun together.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
You're right, Ivy, we don't want to miss out on
all of this winter fun, said Levi. Magic or not,
snow days are awesome. Levi and Ivy then started their
snow day doing one of their most favorite things, building
a snow fort. But as they did, they kept their
eyes open for any signs of magic in the air
or in the snow. Every once in a while, Ivy
would grab a little handful of snow and give it
(06:25):
a quick taste, just checking to see if it tastes
like marshmallows, she would tell Levi, and as he looked
up at the trees overhead, he explained that he was
checking for.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Tasty snow cones.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
As they went along building their snow for it, they
laughed and talked and enjoyed the frozen wonderland that was
now their backyard. Well it's still pretty cold out there,
so my idea of magic winter warm weather hasn't happened,
said Ivy. And your snow trampling didn't happen either, said
Levi as he jumped from the picnic table onto the
firm frosted ground below. But I'm still having fun out here.
(07:01):
Me too, said Ivy, how about we make a snowman.
Levi and Ivy immediately began rolling up large mounds of
snow to form the snowman's body. As they gathered rocks
for their eyes and mouth, and a carrot of the nose.
They put their face together, excitedly, thinking that maybe when
all the pieces were in place, that it would magically
come to life. Levi added the last rock to his
(07:23):
mouth and stepped back, not knowing what would happen next.
Then he heard something, a little voice that said hi,
Levi and Ivy. No way, yelled Levi. Our snowman is magic.
Then he heard another sound, a sound he recognized very well.
It was Ivy laughing. That was me, Levi, She said,
(07:45):
as she could go behind her gloves. I'm sorry, I
hope you're not mad. I was just having some fun. Levi,
who loved a good prank, was proud of his sister
for her silly joke. He laughed along with her, but
also grabbed a few snowballs from their snow fork.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
And started a snow all fight.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Levi threw a snowball toward Ivy, knocking her ear muffs
to the ground. Could throw she called out, picking up
a clump of snow and throwing it back at Levi.
Then the two threw snowballs back and forth, running all
around the backyard until Levi hit Ivy as she was
jumping over a toy they had left out in the backyard.
She tripped and fell on the ground. He ran over
to make sure his sister was okay and found she
(08:23):
was just fine. I'm all good, said Ivy, and while
I'm down here, I should probably make a snow angel.
And without wasting another second, Ivy began moving her arms
up and down as she laid in the soft, chilly snow.
Levi continued to throw snowballs, trying to hit a tree.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
In the distance.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
As snowflakes continued to fall all around her, Ivy formed
the wings of the snow angel with her arms and
the bottoms of her angel's dress. With her legs, side
to side and back and forth, she cleared the snow
beneath her until she was all done. Ivy carefully stood up,
not wanting to mess up.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
All her hard work.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
She hopped to the side to look at the snow
angel she had created and called Levi over to take
a look too. Looks pretty good Ivy, he called out
to his sister as they both stared at the perfect
imprint on the ground. Do you think we need to
make another wish? Asked Ivy? What do you mean, asked Levi.
I know we made a wish for it to snow,
and now we're waiting to see if our snow day
(09:18):
is filled with magic. But do you think maybe we
need to make another wish to see if we can
get the magic to start, explained Ivy. I guess it
couldn't hurt, said Levi as he tossed the snowball back
and forth in his hands. Ivy then stood next to
her snow angel and whispered a wish for her snow
creation to come to life and join her and Levi
for a magical snow day. After Ivy was done with
(09:41):
their wish, Levi looked at the shimmering snowball in his hands.
He then took some of the sparkling snowflakes and sprinkled
them over the snow angel. A little extra snow couldn't hurt,
giggled Levi. Levi and Ivy both watched the snow angel
for a minute or two, and, much to their disappointment,
nothing happened. Ivy shrugged, shoal, and Levi turned around to
make some more snowballs. Don't be upsaid Ivy, said LEVI.
(10:04):
We still have all day for the magic to make
itself known.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
I guess, said Ivy. Trying to stay positive.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Levi packed down the snow in his hands and got
ready to toss another snowball when he heard something, a
little voice that said, hi, Levi and Ivy. Good one,
Ivy answered LEVI, but I'm not falling for that prank again.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
What prank?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Asked Ivy as she walked back over toward Levi and
her snow angel. She had walked back over to their
snow fort while Levi was making snowballs the talking snow
angel prank, answered Levi. I fell for the talking snowman,
but not again. I was way over at the snow fort,
said Ivy, and I didn't say a thing. All of
(10:48):
a sudden, Levi and Ivy's eyes got wide, as if
they had just remembered that their snow day had the
potential to be truly magical. They looked at each other
and slowly turned around to face the snow angel that
Ivy had just and that's when they saw it, or
should I say her? Hello, Levian Ivy said a dazzling
(11:10):
figure made of glistening snow. My name is Aurelia, and
I am one of millions of winter Guardians that watches
over this most magical time of year. I've been asleep
for a very long time, and I would so like
to thank you for waking me up. I need your help.
Levi and Ivy were understandably at a loss for words.
(11:30):
They stood in front of Aurelia with wide eyes and
shocked looks on their faces. However, those confused looks quickly
turned into excited smiles as they began to jump around
their backyard.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
We did it, We did it, shouted.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Levian Ivy, and whispers not to draw attention to their
real life snow angel. We wish on the snow star,
and now our whole snow day will be magical. What
should we do first, asked Levi to Ivy. Should we
do the marshmallow snow thing or the not having to
walk to the top of the sledding hill thing. I
feel a little hungry, so how about the marshmallow snow first?
(12:03):
Then we'll go sledding, suggested Ivy. Works for me, cured Levi,
high fiving his sister. It was then that they realized
that they had not said anything to Aurelia. They both
looked at the snow angel and realized she was just
staring at them, waiting for a chance to explain herself.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
We're so sorry, Arelia. How are you? Do you need anything?
Said Ivy? Yeah? Are you hungry? Do you like sledding?
What's it like being made of snow? Added Levi.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Arealia laughed and smiled at Levi and Ivy. I know
this is a lot to take in, but I heard
you mention the snow star, so you had an idea
that something extra special could happen today.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
That's good, said Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
I'm so happy to see both of you because, like
I was saying, I need your help. Help, asked Levi
and Ivy, who saw their dreams of a fun, magical
snow day slipping away.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
I'm sorry to say.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Even though your magical ideas do so very fun, I
love marshmallows too. We can't even think about changing snow
and too tasty treats until we restore the balance to
this winter season, said Aurelia. I've been told that a
very mischievous frostbriite named Shiver is threatened to freeze the
world in an endless winter. And as much as I
love the winter, your world needs all the seasons. Each
(13:21):
one is very important in its own way, and if
one takes over completely, it won't be good at all.
At first, Levi and Ivy were more than a little
surprised that Aurelia had worked for them to do on
their magical day. But the more they thought about it,
the more the thought of a winter adventure to defeat
a mischievous frostbriite sounded pretty cool. We're in, exclaimed Levi
(13:43):
and Ivy together. Aurelia, who was waiting to see how
Levin Ivy would react to her big important request, was
equally as excited to have their help. The newly formed
team of Winter Warriors set off for Levine Ivy's treehouse
to come up with a plan to stop Shiver. I
have so many questions, began Levi, but my first one
is where is Shiver right now? He's close by, answered Aurelia.
(14:09):
You can tell he's near when you feel a particularly
cold north wind blow, the kind of cold that chatters
your teeth and stings your nose. Just as Aurelia said that,
Levi and Ivy shivered and huddled close together.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Ooh, I see what you mean, said Ivy. What can
we do to stop him from freezing the whole world?
Does he have any weaknesses?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
That's a great place to start, said Aurelia. I don't
think it will come as a surprise that Shiver does
not like warm weather. In fact, he doesn't even like
warm weather things like bathing suits, flip flops, or lemonade.
It's very upsetting and distracting to him. So we may
be able to use that to our advantage if we
need to throw him off his game.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
That sounds good, said Levi. Do we know how he
plans to freeze the whole.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
World classic gigantic freeze ray three thousand that he created
in his frosty cold mountain cave in.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
The Arctic, said Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
He's been working on it for years, and all that
time I've been keeping a close watch on him. But
he protects his Arctic cave very well, and I was
never able to get in and stop him myself. I
could only watch and try to follow his progress. Arelia
went on to tell Levi and Ivy how she heard
him talking about completing the Freeze Ray three thousand that day.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
And how he's set to try it out.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
So you have no idea how happy I was when
you both wished on the snow Star last night, said Aurelia.
Because I need all the help I can get. Well,
you've got it, answered Levi and Ivy together and as
they assured Arelia they would stay by her side to
defeat Shiver, a freezing cold wind blew through the treehouse.
Even Arealia shivered and she's made of snow.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Shit.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Just Shiver is close by, whispered Arelia. I think it's
time we start our adventure. Levi and Ivy made sure
their scarves were on tight, their hats and ear musts
were snug, and their boots were laced up. They were
ready for whatever Shiver had in store for their magical
snow day adventure. Arelia led Levi and Ivy out of
(16:18):
the treehouse and into their backyard. The air was still
and quiet. Then all of a sudden, Levi heard something.
It sounded like giggling, but this time it wasn't Ivy.
It's Shiver, whispered Aurelia. I know that mischievous giggle.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Anywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Well, well, well, said a gruff voice from behind a
snow covered bush at the edge of the backyard. Look
who we have here, Aurelia and her new friends out
to stop old Shiver. Oh, I have some bad news
for you. It can't happen. My plan to freeze the
whole world has already been set in motion. Just look
around at this wonderful winter way underland. Colder than ever
(17:02):
and getting colder. Shiver laughed deep and loud as Levi
and Ivy got their first view of this sly frost spraye.
He was dressed in an ice blue snowsuit with icicles
dripping from his pure white hair. He only stood about
two feet tall, but he commanded the whole backyard with
his confidence an icy cold attitude.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
I do enjoy it.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Good competition, Arelia, But I'm sorry to say you're just
too late, Shiver began. The freeze rate three thousand is
are ready to go, and all I have to do
is press one button. There's nothing you can do about it.
Not even the snow Star.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Can help you.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Now, don't be so sure, Arelia answered back, as she
stood tall and confident in front of Shiver.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
You can't do this and we're going to stop you.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
The world needs all the seasons, even if you don't
like them. Shiver laughed again as he waved his hand
in the air, and as he did, iceicles filled the
trees above his head, covering Levi and Ivy's treehouse and
making it look.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Like an icy four. Hey, don't do that, called out Ivy.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
It looks like I just did, laugh Shiver, and you
better get used to it, because that's what every house
is going to look like all over the world once
I press the button on the freeze rate three thousand,
perfectly incorredible icy igloos. As far as the eye can
see it los are great, Shiver, said Levi, surprising the
frosty little sprite. Oh I'm glad to hear your seating
(18:27):
things my way, said Shiver with a smile. Let me finish,
said Levi. Itlos are great, but so ore spring flowers,
warm beach sand on your toes, and a cool fall
breeze that shakes colorful leaves off the trees. Yeah, Shiver,
we need all the seasons, added Ivy. No one is
trying to get rid of winter. We love winter, We
(18:47):
just love the other seasons too.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Well.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
I don't love the other seasons, and I'm the one
with the freeze ry three thousands, so too bad for you,
Shiver said it. He crossed his arms and turned away
from a really a Levi and I. Why does he
dislike the other season so much? Leevi asked her, really
trying to understand Shiver better. You're made of snow, but
you like the other seasons, right?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Oh? I love them, said Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Spring rains, long summer nights, and the first chill in
the air.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
To kick off fall are the best. Shiver just never
found joy in the other seasons. He instead felt they
took away from winter, the only thing he truly loves.
He feels at home.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
In the ice and snow and doesn't want to change. Well,
change is good. Maybe you we're the ones that need
to teach him, said Ivy. I know if we work together,
we can come up with a plan to stop this
never any winter from happening. Ivy's confidence was contagious, and
Arealia and Levi felt the same way. But just then
Shiver turned back around and let the three friends know
(19:52):
his plan to freeze the world was almost ready to happen.
As much as I'm enjoying our little conversation. I have
an entire way world to freeze, so I gotta go,
said Shiver in a bit of a huff. Then he
waved his hands as a swirl of snowflakes surrounding him,
causing a snow tornado.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Follow me and hold on.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Called out Arelia as she ran toward the spinning tornado.
As she got close, she jumped inside, holding onto Levi
and Ivy's hands, pulling them in as well.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
They swirled through the sky with Shiver.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
And landed in the middle of the Arctic, right in
front of Shiver's cage. The snow tornado was so big
and the Arctic snow was so blinding that Shiver didn't
see Aurelia, Levi and Ivy follow him back to his cave.
He quickly ran inside as really a Levi and Ivy
followed quietly behind, trying to stay out of sight. As
they stayed just a few steps behind Shiver, they walked
(20:43):
deeper and deeper into his frozen cave. Then all of
a sudden, the narrow cave tunnel opened up into a
huge room filled with icicles and piles of glistening white snow,
and in the middle of it was the freeze Ray
three thousand. All we have to do is break the
freeze Ray three thousand, right, asked Levi.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
It's not that easy, whispered Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
If we break it, Shiver will just fix it and
we'll be right back in the situation again. We need
to convince Shiver that the other seasons have their place
and to not freeze the world, said Ivy. That is
it exactly, But we also have to take that back,
said Arelia as she pointed to something shimmery on the
freezer Ay three thousand.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Is that the Snowstar, Levi asked s Hanny shocked.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Yes, it was the last piece Shiver needed to make
the freezer Ey three thousand powerful enough to keep it snowing.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
All day, every day, all over the world. None of
the snow Guardians really thought he'd be able to get
his hands on it, but he did last night. Thankfully.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
It was after you made your wishes. That's why Shiver said,
not even the snow Star can help you. Now. When
we were in the backyard, said Ivy, Arelia nodded her head.
What I need you both to do is distract while
I sneak over grab the snowstar and return it to
the sky where I can put the protection spell on
it and keep it out of Shiver's cold little hands
(22:07):
for good, instructed Aurelia. Levi and Ivy nodded their heads
and were ready to distract Shiver. They knew just what
they had to do to get him talking about the
other seasons. However, they hoped that by doing that they
wouldn't just distract Shiver, but also help him realize that
all the seasons have their place. Hey, Shiver, Levi called out,
(22:27):
completely surprising Shiver as he whipped around, nearly falling over.
How did you two get here, asked Shiver, looking at
Levi and Ivy but also searching for a realia.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
We jumped into your snow.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Tornado, said Ivy, and we're here on an important mission
to stop me from starting the freeze ray three thousand.
I know, answered Shiver, yes, but we also wanted to
get to know you a bit better, said Levi. Shiver's
ears perked up and he walked toward Levin Ivy. No
one had ever asked to learn more about him.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
What do you mean, asked Shiver.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
There has to be more to you than just snow,
ice and freezing cold winds, said Levi. He and his
sister could see that Shiver was very distracted by their
conversation already, which was allowing Arelia to figure out a
way to grab the snowstar undetected.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Have you ever been to the beach, asked Levi.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Ew I disliked the beach so much, answered Shiver. Too
much sand, too much sun, too much heat. Well, have
you ever made a sand castle? Asked Levi. It's summer's
version of a snowman. Or ever have a chili glass
of lemonade? Asked Ivy. Certainly you'd like chili drinks. Sand
(23:42):
castles are all right, I guess, answered Shiver, But nothing beat.
It's a towery, snowy snowman, and I don't need chili drinks.
I'm chilly enough already. Shiver was so focused on telling
Levi and Ivy how much he disliked different seasons that
he didn't even give a really a second thought. Well,
how about fall, asked Ivy. Sweather, weather, carving, pumpkins, Halloween?
(24:04):
How can you not like all of that? Because I
like winter coats and boots, weather making snowballs, and all
the wonderful holidays that the winter brings, answered Shiver.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
You really don't like how all.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
The trees look covered in colorful leaves, or watching as
the birds start to fly south as the weather turns
chili and the nights get longer, asked Levi. I do
like chili weather, of course, but way chillier than fall brings,
said Shiver. Oh that feeling when fall turns to winter,
when you step out of your house and feel that
icy chill in the air that only late December can bring.
(24:40):
That's the most special feeling in the world. Oh wow,
I feel bad that you'll never get to feel that again,
said Levi, looking at Ivy with a sly smile on
his face. She knew exactly what he was doing. What
what do you mean, asked Shiver, standing confused. Once you
turn on the freeze rate three thousand, it will be
(25:00):
wintertime all the time, started Ivy. So that amazing feeling
of having fall turned to winter won't exist anymore. It
will just always be winter. Oh I didn't think of that,
said Shiver in a whisper, talking to himself. I mean,
I really love that feeling.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Yeah, if you.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Take away all the seasons and make it winter all
the time, it just won't feel that special anymore, said Levi.
All the seasons are great, including winter, and all the
special things they bring with them are what we look
forward to every year, said Ivy. Levi and Ivy could
tell that their conversation with Shiver was working. He looked
deep in thought, and they were so proud of themselves
until he spoke, I guess you're right. But since I'm
(25:44):
in control of the freeze Rate three thousand, the most
powerful winter weather machine ever created, I can always turn
everything back if I want to, said Shiver. So thanks
for the talk, but I'm going to go ahead with
my plan. After a few years of winter, maybe I'll
change it all back. Shiver gave a mischievous smile and
walked back toward the freeze Ray three thousand. Levi and
(26:05):
Ivy were shocked, and their first instinct was to run
after Shiver. However, when they tried to, they discovered their
boots were frozen to the cave's icy floor. They could
only watch and hope Aurelia had grabbed the Snowstar already.
Since you're here, you two can help me camp down
to the winter wonderland I'm.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
About to share with the whole world.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Said Shiver as he stood in front of a giant
red start button next to the Freezerray three thousand. Then
the roof of his icy cave opened up above his
head and the freeze Race three thousand rose into the sky.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Three two one.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Called out Shiver, and as he reached the last number,
he pressed down on the start button and gazed at
the freezer Ray three thousand, waiting for it to turn
on and blanket the world in snow. But when it
didn't do a thing, Shiver looked very confused. That's when
Aurelia stepped out from behind a pile of snow holding
the Snowstar, and without giving Shiver even a second to react,
she used all her powers to create an impenetrable force
(26:57):
field around the special star and sent it racing the
opening the cave's roof back up to this night sky
where it belongs. Levi and Ivy cheered from the edge
of the cave, where their boots were still frozen to
the ground. They watched the Shiver looked on while the
snow Star that he worked so hard to get shimmered
in the night sky above his cave.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
No called out, Shiver, my plan for never ending winter
is ruined.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Arelia ran over to Levi and Ivy and got them unstuck.
Then they all slowly approached Shiver, not knowing exactly what
he was going to do, but seeing he needed some help.
He looked mad and disappointed, but also sad and alone. Shiver,
you don't need it to be winter all the time
to enjoy winter, said Levi. Don't waste another second in
(27:43):
year being upset. Go outside and enjoy the ice and
snow now with us, what, asked Shiver, sound in surprise.
Go out, play in the snow with you. That's right,
answered Ivy. It's winter right now, so let's all enjoy it.
And when the other seasons come along, we can teach
(28:05):
you how to enjoy those two. Then before you know
it, it will be winter again. And because you didn't make
it winter every day all over the world, you'll enjoy
it more. It'll be special because it only comes around
once a year at it.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Shiver didn't know what to say at first, but his
face showed he was listening and taking in everything they said.
Then a little smile started to form, and as it
got bigger, Shiver.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Told Levi, Ivy and Aurelia that they were right.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Thank you for talking to me Levi and Ivy, and
thank you for stepping in and doing the right thing.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Arelia said Shiver.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
I never should have taken the snowstar out of the sky,
and after talking with Levi and Ivy, I realize that
having all the seasons is one thing that helps make
winter special to me. Levine Ivy smiled that Shiver in aaralia.
All this talk about winter has made me really want
to go outside and enjoy some snowy fun, said Levi.
Me too, said Ivy. How about a little snow for
(28:58):
building competition at it? Really, and knowing how much Levi
and Ivy loved making snow fords, sounds great, called that Levi,
Ivy and Shiver as they all ran from the snow
covered cave. Levi and Ivy spent the rest of their
day playing in the Arctic snow and had the best
time ever. They even got to eat some snow marshmallows
and ice school snow cones. But as more time passed
(29:18):
they knew they had to head home. They waved goodbye
to Shiver and said if you ever wanted to play,
they would keep an eye out for him at home.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
For the rest of the winter.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
I like that very much, said Shiver as he created
a snow tornado to take Levi, Ivy, and Aurelia back home.
They all waved goodbye as a million snowflakes swirled around
them and flew them back to Levi and Ivy's backyard.
Aurelia thanked her new friends for their help and assured
them that she would be back that winter.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Just know, each time you make a snow.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Angel, I'll be there with you, said a Really as
she laid back in the snow and disappeared into the
sparkling white flakes. Levi and Ivy then flopped down in
the snow as tiny snowflakes floated through the air all
around them. What an amazing magical snow day, said Levi.
The best, said Ivy. Dad was right about the snowstar.
Let's go tell them all about our adventure. And with that,
(30:10):
Levi and Ivy hopped up from the snow and ran inside,
ready to tell their dad the story of the magical
snow Angel. Thanks for joining us today. We hope you
enjoyed the story and learned.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Enough about that, let's get too today's super Live Ay
Lewis story. Snowflakes swirled through the air as Levi and
Ivy watched from their playroom window with wide eyes and
huge smiles. The world outside had been transformed into a
frozen wonderland filled with possibilities. But more importantly, they had
(00:52):
just heard the one thing that every kid wants to
hear in the wintertime on a school day. Hey, friends,
do you know what that is? No school?
Speaker 3 (01:01):
It's a snow day, called.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Out Levi and Ivy's mom from the living room as
she watched the local news. A joyful sound of cheering
and applauset reupted it from the playroom as Levi and
Ivy ran through the house excitedly jumping all around.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
This is what I wished for last night, exclaimed Ivy.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I made a wish on a store before he fell
asleep last night, and my wish came true.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
No way. Levi chimed in. I made the same wish.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
As Levi and his sister laughed over their wishes coming true,
they didn't realize that their dad had overheard them. Wow,
are you too serious, heyes, sounding very excited for them. Yeah, Dad, why,
Ivy asked that she took another look out the window
at the snow piling up in her backyard. I heard
when I was a kid that if you were lucky
enough to wish on the snowstar for snow, and your
(01:49):
wish comes true, that your snowday will be filled with magic,
said Levi and Ivy's dad with a big smile. At least,
that's what my grandma used to tell me, and ever
since she did. Every winter night when I was a kid,
I would wish on a star that it would snow,
just hoping it was the snowstar and that my wish
would come true. I guess you'll just have to wait
and see if you wished on the right star. Levi
(02:11):
and Ivey's dad stared off into the distance as if
he was remembering something very special and close to his heart.
So said Levi, interrupting his dad's deep thought. Did it
ever happen for you, yad, Dad? Did you ever wish
on the snowstar and have a magical snow day? Added Ivy. Oh, yes,
said Levi and Ivy's dad. Just one time. It was
(02:33):
purely by luck, as it always is. That I picked
the snowstar one night when I was just about your age.
Then the next day I woke up to a neighborhood
full of snow and a day I would never forget.
Levi and Ivy didn't take their eyes off their dad
as he told them all about his magical winter adventure.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
They could have not been more interested.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
It was pretty amazing, said Levi and Ivy's dad, pouring
himself a cup of coffee and taking a seat to
the table. So how do we know of one of
us or both of us wished on the snowstar last night,
asked Ivy. I mean there are millions of stars in
the sky. How do we know if we were looking
at the right one when we made our wish. Oh,
you'll know, said their dad with a knowing laugh. You'll
(03:14):
definitely know if you wished on the snowstar. The snow
will let you know. You just have to be outside
to hear it. Levi and Ivy didn't let one more
minute pass that they raced upstairs to get dressed for
the day.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Magical snow day or not.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
You still have to eat breakfast and brush your teeth,
called Levi and Ivy's mom as they ran out of
the kitchen. As they got ready upstairs in their room,
Levi and Ivy shouted back and forth to each other
what they hoped for if they were lucky enough to
get a magical snow day. I'd love if all the
snow turned into marshmallows, said Ivy as she put on
her big fluffy socks. That would be awesome, replied Levi
(03:50):
as he looked for his snow gloves in the closet.
I would love if every time we went sledding, we
could snap our fingers and be transported back to the
top of the hill. Walking all the way back up
every time makes me so tired. Good one, said Ivy.
What if the snow was bouncy like giant winter trampoline,
or the trees were filled.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
With snow cones instead of icicles, said Levi.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Or the snow wasn't cold but instead nice and warm,
so we could stay out all day without getting frozen toes,
added Ivy. I think we should go outside and see
if any of this actually happens, laugh Levia's. He stood
in front of Ivy's bedroom door. Sounds good to me,
said Ivy, But as they started to head downstairs, Levi
stopped his sister and said, Hey, Ivy, just remember, even
(04:35):
if we didn't wish on the snow star last night
and we don't get a magical snow day, it's still
a snow day and we'll have fun together. Totally replied Ivy.
But I'm really hoping for a little bit of magic
me too, with said Levi's He and Ivy ran down
the stairs. They did have to stop for breakfast and
of course brush their teeth, but before they knew it,
they were outside, completely outfitted for a day in the
(04:57):
snow and warm coats.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Hats, scarves, gloves, and boots.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
They each took their first steps into the soft, sparkling
snow cautiously and very quietly. They didn't know how the
snow was going to tell them if they were about
to have a magical day, but they certainly didn't want
to miss it. I'm so excited for them, thought Levi
and Ivy's dad as he watched them from his office window.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
I hope they wish on the snowstar. But the only
way they'll know.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
For sure is if they stay outside and wait for
a sign. He stepped away from the window and turned
his attention to his work, as Levi and Ivy's mom
did the same. While outside in the backyard, Levi and
Ivy were busy looking and listening for any signs of magic. However,
all they heard was the sound of thousands of snowflakes
lightly landing on the ground around them.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
What do we do now, asked Levi in a whisper.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
I think we should just do what we normally do,
like it was a normal snow day, said Ivy. And
if something magic is supposed to happen, it will, like
you said, Even if we didn't wish on the snowstar
and we don't get a magical snow day, it's still
a snow.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Day and we'll have fun together.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
You're right, Ivy, we don't want to miss out on
all of this winter fun, said Levi. Magic or not,
snow days are awesome. Levi and Ivy then started their
snow day doing one of their most favorite things, building
a snow fort. But as they did, they kept their
eyes open for any signs of magic in the air
or in the snow. Every once in a while, Ivy
would grab a little handful of snow and give it
(06:25):
a quick taste, just checking to see if it tastes
like marshmallows, she would tell Levi, and as he looked
up at the trees overhead, he explained that he was
checking for.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Tasty snow cones.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
As they went along building their snow for it, they
laughed and talked and enjoyed the frozen wonderland that was
now their backyard. Well it's still pretty cold out there,
so my idea of magic winter warm weather hasn't happened,
said Ivy. And your snow trampling didn't happen either, said
Levi as he jumped from the picnic table onto the
firm frosted ground below. But I'm still having fun out here.
(07:01):
Me too, said Ivy, how about we make a snowman.
Levi and Ivy immediately began rolling up large mounds of
snow to form the snowman's body. As they gathered rocks
for their eyes and mouth, and a carrot of the nose.
They put their face together, excitedly, thinking that maybe when
all the pieces were in place, that it would magically
come to life. Levi added the last rock to his
(07:23):
mouth and stepped back, not knowing what would happen next.
Then he heard something, a little voice that said hi,
Levi and Ivy. No way, yelled Levi. Our snowman is magic.
Then he heard another sound, a sound he recognized very well.
It was Ivy laughing. That was me, Levi, She said,
(07:45):
as she could go behind her gloves. I'm sorry, I
hope you're not mad. I was just having some fun. Levi,
who loved a good prank, was proud of his sister
for her silly joke. He laughed along with her, but
also grabbed a few snowballs from their snow fork.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
And started a snow all fight.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Levi threw a snowball toward Ivy, knocking her ear muffs
to the ground. Could throw she called out, picking up
a clump of snow and throwing it back at Levi.
Then the two threw snowballs back and forth, running all
around the backyard until Levi hit Ivy as she was
jumping over a toy they had left out in the backyard.
She tripped and fell on the ground. He ran over
to make sure his sister was okay and found she
(08:23):
was just fine. I'm all good, said Ivy, and while
I'm down here, I should probably make a snow angel.
And without wasting another second, Ivy began moving her arms
up and down as she laid in the soft, chilly snow.
Levi continued to throw snowballs, trying to hit a tree.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
In the distance.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
As snowflakes continued to fall all around her, Ivy formed
the wings of the snow angel with her arms and
the bottoms of her angel's dress. With her legs, side
to side and back and forth, she cleared the snow
beneath her until she was all done. Ivy carefully stood up,
not wanting to mess up.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
All her hard work.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
She hopped to the side to look at the snow
angel she had created and called Levi over to take
a look too. Looks pretty good Ivy, he called out
to his sister as they both stared at the perfect
imprint on the ground. Do you think we need to
make another wish? Asked Ivy? What do you mean, asked Levi.
I know we made a wish for it to snow,
and now we're waiting to see if our snow day
(09:18):
is filled with magic. But do you think maybe we
need to make another wish to see if we can
get the magic to start, explained Ivy. I guess it
couldn't hurt, said Levi as he tossed the snowball back
and forth in his hands. Ivy then stood next to
her snow angel and whispered a wish for her snow
creation to come to life and join her and Levi
for a magical snow day. After Ivy was done with
(09:41):
their wish, Levi looked at the shimmering snowball in his hands.
He then took some of the sparkling snowflakes and sprinkled
them over the snow angel. A little extra snow couldn't hurt,
giggled Levi. Levi and Ivy both watched the snow angel
for a minute or two, and, much to their disappointment,
nothing happened. Ivy shrugged, shoal, and Levi turned around to
make some more snowballs. Don't be upsaid Ivy, said LEVI.
(10:04):
We still have all day for the magic to make
itself known.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
I guess, said Ivy. Trying to stay positive.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Levi packed down the snow in his hands and got
ready to toss another snowball when he heard something, a
little voice that said, hi, Levi and Ivy. Good one,
Ivy answered LEVI, but I'm not falling for that prank again.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
What prank?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Asked Ivy as she walked back over toward Levi and
her snow angel. She had walked back over to their
snow fort while Levi was making snowballs the talking snow
angel prank, answered Levi. I fell for the talking snowman,
but not again. I was way over at the snow fort,
said Ivy, and I didn't say a thing. All of
(10:48):
a sudden, Levi and Ivy's eyes got wide, as if
they had just remembered that their snow day had the
potential to be truly magical. They looked at each other
and slowly turned around to face the snow angel that
Ivy had just and that's when they saw it, or
should I say her? Hello, Levian Ivy said a dazzling
(11:10):
figure made of glistening snow. My name is Aurelia, and
I am one of millions of winter Guardians that watches
over this most magical time of year. I've been asleep
for a very long time, and I would so like
to thank you for waking me up. I need your help.
Levi and Ivy were understandably at a loss for words.
(11:30):
They stood in front of Aurelia with wide eyes and
shocked looks on their faces. However, those confused looks quickly
turned into excited smiles as they began to jump around
their backyard.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
We did it, We did it, shouted.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Levian Ivy, and whispers not to draw attention to their
real life snow angel. We wish on the snow star,
and now our whole snow day will be magical. What
should we do first, asked Levi to Ivy. Should we
do the marshmallow snow thing or the not having to
walk to the top of the sledding hill thing. I
feel a little hungry, so how about the marshmallow snow first?
(12:03):
Then we'll go sledding, suggested Ivy. Works for me, cured Levi,
high fiving his sister. It was then that they realized
that they had not said anything to Aurelia. They both
looked at the snow angel and realized she was just
staring at them, waiting for a chance to explain herself.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
We're so sorry, Arelia. How are you? Do you need anything?
Said Ivy? Yeah? Are you hungry? Do you like sledding?
What's it like being made of snow? Added Levi.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Arealia laughed and smiled at Levi and Ivy. I know
this is a lot to take in, but I heard
you mention the snow star, so you had an idea
that something extra special could happen today.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
That's good, said Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
I'm so happy to see both of you because, like
I was saying, I need your help. Help, asked Levi
and Ivy, who saw their dreams of a fun, magical
snow day slipping away.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
I'm sorry to say.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Even though your magical ideas do so very fun, I
love marshmallows too. We can't even think about changing snow
and too tasty treats until we restore the balance to
this winter season, said Aurelia. I've been told that a
very mischievous frostbriite named Shiver is threatened to freeze the
world in an endless winter. And as much as I
love the winter, your world needs all the seasons. Each
(13:21):
one is very important in its own way, and if
one takes over completely, it won't be good at all.
At first, Levi and Ivy were more than a little
surprised that Aurelia had worked for them to do on
their magical day. But the more they thought about it,
the more the thought of a winter adventure to defeat
a mischievous frostbriite sounded pretty cool. We're in, exclaimed Levi
(13:43):
and Ivy together. Aurelia, who was waiting to see how
Levin Ivy would react to her big important request, was
equally as excited to have their help. The newly formed
team of Winter Warriors set off for Levine Ivy's treehouse
to come up with a plan to stop Shiver. I
have so many questions, began Levi, but my first one
is where is Shiver right now? He's close by, answered Aurelia.
(14:09):
You can tell he's near when you feel a particularly
cold north wind blow, the kind of cold that chatters
your teeth and stings your nose. Just as Aurelia said that,
Levi and Ivy shivered and huddled close together.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Ooh, I see what you mean, said Ivy. What can
we do to stop him from freezing the whole world?
Does he have any weaknesses?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
That's a great place to start, said Aurelia. I don't
think it will come as a surprise that Shiver does
not like warm weather. In fact, he doesn't even like
warm weather things like bathing suits, flip flops, or lemonade.
It's very upsetting and distracting to him. So we may
be able to use that to our advantage if we
need to throw him off his game.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
That sounds good, said Levi. Do we know how he
plans to freeze the whole.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
World classic gigantic freeze ray three thousand that he created
in his frosty cold mountain cave in.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
The Arctic, said Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
He's been working on it for years, and all that
time I've been keeping a close watch on him. But
he protects his Arctic cave very well, and I was
never able to get in and stop him myself. I
could only watch and try to follow his progress. Arelia
went on to tell Levi and Ivy how she heard
him talking about completing the Freeze Ray three thousand that day.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
And how he's set to try it out.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
So you have no idea how happy I was when
you both wished on the snow Star last night, said Aurelia.
Because I need all the help I can get. Well,
you've got it, answered Levi and Ivy together and as
they assured Arelia they would stay by her side to
defeat Shiver, a freezing cold wind blew through the treehouse.
Even Arealia shivered and she's made of snow.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Shit.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Just Shiver is close by, whispered Arelia. I think it's
time we start our adventure. Levi and Ivy made sure
their scarves were on tight, their hats and ear musts
were snug, and their boots were laced up. They were
ready for whatever Shiver had in store for their magical
snow day adventure. Arelia led Levi and Ivy out of
(16:18):
the treehouse and into their backyard. The air was still
and quiet. Then all of a sudden, Levi heard something.
It sounded like giggling, but this time it wasn't Ivy.
It's Shiver, whispered Aurelia. I know that mischievous giggle.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Anywhere.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Well, well, well, said a gruff voice from behind a
snow covered bush at the edge of the backyard. Look
who we have here, Aurelia and her new friends out
to stop old Shiver. Oh, I have some bad news
for you. It can't happen. My plan to freeze the
whole world has already been set in motion. Just look
around at this wonderful winter way underland. Colder than ever
(17:02):
and getting colder. Shiver laughed deep and loud as Levi
and Ivy got their first view of this sly frost spraye.
He was dressed in an ice blue snowsuit with icicles
dripping from his pure white hair. He only stood about
two feet tall, but he commanded the whole backyard with
his confidence an icy cold attitude.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
I do enjoy it.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Good competition, Arelia, But I'm sorry to say you're just
too late, Shiver began. The freeze rate three thousand is
are ready to go, and all I have to do
is press one button. There's nothing you can do about it.
Not even the snow Star.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Can help you.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Now, don't be so sure, Arelia answered back, as she
stood tall and confident in front of Shiver.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
You can't do this and we're going to stop you.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
The world needs all the seasons, even if you don't
like them. Shiver laughed again as he waved his hand
in the air, and as he did, iceicles filled the
trees above his head, covering Levi and Ivy's treehouse and
making it look.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Like an icy four. Hey, don't do that, called out Ivy.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
It looks like I just did, laugh Shiver, and you
better get used to it, because that's what every house
is going to look like all over the world once
I press the button on the freeze rate three thousand,
perfectly incorredible icy igloos. As far as the eye can
see it los are great, Shiver, said Levi, surprising the
frosty little sprite. Oh I'm glad to hear your seating
(18:27):
things my way, said Shiver with a smile. Let me finish,
said Levi. Itlos are great, but so ore spring flowers,
warm beach sand on your toes, and a cool fall
breeze that shakes colorful leaves off the trees. Yeah, Shiver,
we need all the seasons, added Ivy. No one is
trying to get rid of winter. We love winter, We
(18:47):
just love the other seasons too.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Well.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
I don't love the other seasons, and I'm the one
with the freeze ry three thousands, so too bad for you,
Shiver said it. He crossed his arms and turned away
from a really a Levi and I. Why does he
dislike the other season so much? Leevi asked her, really
trying to understand Shiver better. You're made of snow, but
you like the other seasons, right?
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Oh? I love them, said Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Spring rains, long summer nights, and the first chill in
the air.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
To kick off fall are the best. Shiver just never
found joy in the other seasons. He instead felt they
took away from winter, the only thing he truly loves.
He feels at home.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
In the ice and snow and doesn't want to change. Well,
change is good. Maybe you we're the ones that need
to teach him, said Ivy. I know if we work together,
we can come up with a plan to stop this
never any winter from happening. Ivy's confidence was contagious, and
Arealia and Levi felt the same way. But just then
Shiver turned back around and let the three friends know
(19:52):
his plan to freeze the world was almost ready to happen.
As much as I'm enjoying our little conversation. I have
an entire way world to freeze, so I gotta go,
said Shiver in a bit of a huff. Then he
waved his hands as a swirl of snowflakes surrounding him,
causing a snow tornado.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Follow me and hold on.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Called out Arelia as she ran toward the spinning tornado.
As she got close, she jumped inside, holding onto Levi
and Ivy's hands, pulling them in as well.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
They swirled through the sky with Shiver.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
And landed in the middle of the Arctic, right in
front of Shiver's cage. The snow tornado was so big
and the Arctic snow was so blinding that Shiver didn't
see Aurelia, Levi and Ivy follow him back to his cave.
He quickly ran inside as really a Levi and Ivy
followed quietly behind, trying to stay out of sight. As
they stayed just a few steps behind Shiver, they walked
(20:43):
deeper and deeper into his frozen cave. Then all of
a sudden, the narrow cave tunnel opened up into a
huge room filled with icicles and piles of glistening white snow,
and in the middle of it was the freeze Ray
three thousand. All we have to do is break the
freeze Ray three thousand, right, asked Levi.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
It's not that easy, whispered Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
If we break it, Shiver will just fix it and
we'll be right back in the situation again. We need
to convince Shiver that the other seasons have their place
and to not freeze the world, said Ivy. That is
it exactly, But we also have to take that back,
said Arelia as she pointed to something shimmery on the
freezer Ay three thousand.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Is that the Snowstar, Levi asked s Hanny shocked.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Yes, it was the last piece Shiver needed to make
the freezer Ey three thousand powerful enough to keep it snowing.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
All day, every day, all over the world. None of
the snow Guardians really thought he'd be able to get
his hands on it, but he did last night. Thankfully.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
It was after you made your wishes. That's why Shiver said,
not even the snow Star can help you. Now. When
we were in the backyard, said Ivy, Arelia nodded her head.
What I need you both to do is distract while
I sneak over grab the snowstar and return it to
the sky where I can put the protection spell on
it and keep it out of Shiver's cold little hands
(22:07):
for good, instructed Aurelia. Levi and Ivy nodded their heads
and were ready to distract Shiver. They knew just what
they had to do to get him talking about the
other seasons. However, they hoped that by doing that they
wouldn't just distract Shiver, but also help him realize that
all the seasons have their place. Hey, Shiver, Levi called out,
(22:27):
completely surprising Shiver as he whipped around, nearly falling over.
How did you two get here, asked Shiver, looking at
Levi and Ivy but also searching for a realia.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
We jumped into your snow.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Tornado, said Ivy, and we're here on an important mission
to stop me from starting the freeze ray three thousand.
I know, answered Shiver, yes, but we also wanted to
get to know you a bit better, said Levi. Shiver's
ears perked up and he walked toward Levin Ivy. No
one had ever asked to learn more about him.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
What do you mean, asked Shiver.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
There has to be more to you than just snow,
ice and freezing cold winds, said Levi. He and his
sister could see that Shiver was very distracted by their
conversation already, which was allowing Arelia to figure out a
way to grab the snowstar undetected.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Have you ever been to the beach, asked Levi.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Ew I disliked the beach so much, answered Shiver. Too
much sand, too much sun, too much heat. Well, have
you ever made a sand castle? Asked Levi. It's summer's
version of a snowman. Or ever have a chili glass
of lemonade? Asked Ivy. Certainly you'd like chili drinks. Sand
(23:42):
castles are all right, I guess, answered Shiver, But nothing beat.
It's a towery, snowy snowman, and I don't need chili drinks.
I'm chilly enough already. Shiver was so focused on telling
Levi and Ivy how much he disliked different seasons that
he didn't even give a really a second thought. Well,
how about fall, asked Ivy. Sweather, weather, carving, pumpkins, Halloween?
(24:04):
How can you not like all of that? Because I
like winter coats and boots, weather making snowballs, and all
the wonderful holidays that the winter brings, answered Shiver.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
You really don't like how all.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
The trees look covered in colorful leaves, or watching as
the birds start to fly south as the weather turns
chili and the nights get longer, asked Levi. I do
like chili weather, of course, but way chillier than fall brings,
said Shiver. Oh that feeling when fall turns to winter,
when you step out of your house and feel that
icy chill in the air that only late December can bring.
(24:40):
That's the most special feeling in the world. Oh wow,
I feel bad that you'll never get to feel that again,
said Levi, looking at Ivy with a sly smile on
his face. She knew exactly what he was doing. What
what do you mean, asked Shiver, standing confused. Once you
turn on the freeze rate three thousand, it will be
(25:00):
wintertime all the time, started Ivy. So that amazing feeling
of having fall turned to winter won't exist anymore. It
will just always be winter. Oh I didn't think of that,
said Shiver in a whisper, talking to himself. I mean,
I really love that feeling.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Yeah, if you.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Take away all the seasons and make it winter all
the time, it just won't feel that special anymore, said Levi.
All the seasons are great, including winter, and all the
special things they bring with them are what we look
forward to every year, said Ivy. Levi and Ivy could
tell that their conversation with Shiver was working. He looked
deep in thought, and they were so proud of themselves
until he spoke, I guess you're right. But since I'm
(25:44):
in control of the freeze Rate three thousand, the most
powerful winter weather machine ever created, I can always turn
everything back if I want to, said Shiver. So thanks
for the talk, but I'm going to go ahead with
my plan. After a few years of winter, maybe I'll
change it all back. Shiver gave a mischievous smile and
walked back toward the freeze Ray three thousand. Levi and
(26:05):
Ivy were shocked, and their first instinct was to run
after Shiver. However, when they tried to, they discovered their
boots were frozen to the cave's icy floor. They could
only watch and hope Aurelia had grabbed the Snowstar already.
Since you're here, you two can help me camp down
to the winter wonderland I'm.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
About to share with the whole world.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Said Shiver as he stood in front of a giant
red start button next to the Freezerray three thousand. Then
the roof of his icy cave opened up above his
head and the freeze Race three thousand rose into the sky.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Three two one.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Called out Shiver, and as he reached the last number,
he pressed down on the start button and gazed at
the freezer Ray three thousand, waiting for it to turn
on and blanket the world in snow. But when it
didn't do a thing, Shiver looked very confused. That's when
Aurelia stepped out from behind a pile of snow holding
the Snowstar, and without giving Shiver even a second to react,
she used all her powers to create an impenetrable force
(26:57):
field around the special star and sent it racing the
opening the cave's roof back up to this night sky
where it belongs. Levi and Ivy cheered from the edge
of the cave, where their boots were still frozen to
the ground. They watched the Shiver looked on while the
snow Star that he worked so hard to get shimmered
in the night sky above his cave.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
No called out, Shiver, my plan for never ending winter
is ruined.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Arelia ran over to Levi and Ivy and got them unstuck.
Then they all slowly approached Shiver, not knowing exactly what
he was going to do, but seeing he needed some help.
He looked mad and disappointed, but also sad and alone. Shiver,
you don't need it to be winter all the time
to enjoy winter, said Levi. Don't waste another second in
(27:43):
year being upset. Go outside and enjoy the ice and
snow now with us, what, asked Shiver, sound in surprise.
Go out, play in the snow with you. That's right,
answered Ivy. It's winter right now, so let's all enjoy it.
And when the other seasons come along, we can teach
(28:05):
you how to enjoy those two. Then before you know
it, it will be winter again. And because you didn't make
it winter every day all over the world, you'll enjoy
it more. It'll be special because it only comes around
once a year at it.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Aurelia.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Shiver didn't know what to say at first, but his
face showed he was listening and taking in everything they said.
Then a little smile started to form, and as it
got bigger, Shiver.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Told Levi, Ivy and Aurelia that they were right.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Thank you for talking to me Levi and Ivy, and
thank you for stepping in and doing the right thing.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Arelia said Shiver.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
I never should have taken the snowstar out of the sky,
and after talking with Levi and Ivy, I realize that
having all the seasons is one thing that helps make
winter special to me. Levine Ivy smiled that Shiver in aaralia.
All this talk about winter has made me really want
to go outside and enjoy some snowy fun, said Levi.
Me too, said Ivy. How about a little snow for
(28:58):
building competition at it? Really, and knowing how much Levi
and Ivy loved making snow fords, sounds great, called that Levi,
Ivy and Shiver as they all ran from the snow
covered cave. Levi and Ivy spent the rest of their
day playing in the Arctic snow and had the best
time ever. They even got to eat some snow marshmallows
and ice school snow cones. But as more time passed
(29:18):
they knew they had to head home. They waved goodbye
to Shiver and said if you ever wanted to play,
they would keep an eye out for him at home.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
For the rest of the winter.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
I like that very much, said Shiver as he created
a snow tornado to take Levi, Ivy, and Aurelia back home.
They all waved goodbye as a million snowflakes swirled around
them and flew them back to Levi and Ivy's backyard.
Aurelia thanked her new friends for their help and assured
them that she would be back that winter.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Just know, each time you make a snow.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Angel, I'll be there with you, said a Really as
she laid back in the snow and disappeared into the
sparkling white flakes. Levi and Ivy then flopped down in
the snow as tiny snowflakes floated through the air all
around them. What an amazing magical snow day, said Levi.
The best, said Ivy. Dad was right about the snowstar.
Let's go tell them all about our adventure. And with that,
(30:10):
Levi and Ivy hopped up from the snow and ran inside,
ready to tell their dad the story of the magical
snow Angel. Thanks for joining us today. We hope you
enjoyed the story and learned.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
A little something too.
