Let it Snow: Red Start

[voidtreckermods]

The doors slam shut, the train moves. Through the snow this time but the shuddering is almost worse that entering the void. "Red team to doors." The visibility out of the window is low but they are moving further up the mountain.

The doors open, allowing red team to jump. The snow here is thick, there is little protection from the howling winds and biting cold.

Their SCA shows a route, following it will, presumably lead them to the gang that caused these problems. Here on the low slopes of the mountain there are some homesteads. Much fewer than in the town itself but cottages and small farm houses. All seem abandoned.

For now there is not much to do but to walk, forge a path through the snow. Fight the snow and ice monsters that attack and do their best to survive as they follow the map towards their goal.

She was glad that her attack had actually done something. It is very hard to stab ice, ice is stupid, cold and hard and she hates it.

After this mission she hopes to never go near ice again, even if ice dancing with Curufin had been fun. She hates it even more as the leg jerks back, inadvertantly kicking her backwards into a snowdrift. It is so quick she doesn't have time to activate the grav con.

She clambers out of the snowdrift, shaking snow out of her hair and jumps closer to the fight once more watching the man who is doing a good job at fighting it and distracting it. The knees maybe? Taking out a persons knees is a good strategy, she has no idea if that works with ice monsters. She runs towards it again to stab in the back of its knees.

"Be watching your left!" She called as one of it's fists moved towards the man.

after like two weeks.

Dio is unfortunately a little more distractable than he'd like to think he is. Which means when the small child calls out her warning, in a move of utter brilliance, he glances at her instead. "What?"

And then is promptly slapped into the nearest snowdrift hard enough to leave a nice outline in the doing. While this does leave her dealing with the ice monster for a minute or so by herself, it's not precisely swift and agile, and its efforts to swat her away as well as she works on hamstringing the thing may well be dodgeable. Especially given the damage its icy hide has gotten already, slowing it further. Hopefully she can, she doesn't look too durable.

The vampire drags himself out of his crater, still dusted with snow. That really did hurt. "Okay, thank you for the warning."

He might be serious. She did try to warn him!

And then he tackles the thing straight on, like a football player, or perhaps a particularly large dog after a favored squeak toy. With luck, the girl with the sharp knife won't be in the way, or this could go badly very fast!

Idiot. She rolled her eyes as he got slapped into the nearest snowdrift and then dived towards the monster to start fighting. She may not be too durable but she is quick and she mostly manages to avoid the fists.

Also the idiot man who promptly dives at the monster. She saw movement out of the edge of her eye and managed to jump out the way, even rolling though it was not as smooth as she would like, considering the snow.

She glared at him and the monster but was soon distracted by another snowman. She was better at fighting snowmen then the ice monsters, they were easy to smush!
