Arthur watched Merlin walk away holding a candle as he went to open the door. The stranger knocking on the door had startled them both and Arthur encouraged Merlin to go and find out.

He stood up immediately after and was only a few feet behind him.

Merlin swung the door open and the same old man from earlier that night was standing at the door.

"Yes?" Merlin asked politely.

"You boys left your bags by the door," the man said. "The food will get ruined."

"Oh," Merlin answered and Arthur immediately joined him.

Arthur placed his hand on Merlin's shoulder before speaking. "Sorry, we must have forgotten, focusing on finding the candles and the fire..."

"Of course." The man nodded. "I'm the care taker of the village, by the way, Jim Davis." He brought out his hand to shake theirs.

"Merlin, nice to meet you, and thanks," Merlin said, shaking the man's hand first. "This is Arthur."

"Hello" Arthur said.

"Nice to meet you boys too," Jim said. "Since the power is still out, the neighbourhood kids and their parents are gathering together for a snow ball fight in the park. It's just five minutes up this way. There's another nice couple renting a cottage two houses over, I was going to invite them as well. Do you boys think you want to join?"

Merlin looked at Arthur and grinned.

"Sure," Arthur said. "We'll get dressed and see you there then."

"Excellent," Jim answered and handed the bag of groceries to Merlin.

Ten minutes later, they were in the park.

Arthur and Merlin saw a plethora of children engaged in a snowball fight while another man was walking around the park and placing heated lamps.

Splat!

Arthur felt a small blow to his back and discovered that a boy had thrown a handful of snow at him. When Arthur came face-to-face with the boy, he threw another rolled up snow ball at Arthur. Merlin began laughing immediately until the boy threw a snow ball at him, then Arthur laughed.

Momentarily, Arthur and Merlin had joined the snowball fight.
