Frost was alert as she kept an eye out from her perch in the tree. Then she heard, just barely, someone moving below her. Pulling her hood up from the cloak she'd put on earlier. She quietly shimmied down the tree trunk to investigate. Frost moved soundless as she crept up on the figure. Holding her staff at her side,she readied herself and pounced!
Ryker whipped around just in time to see some hooded figure attack him, he fell onto his back and covered the back on his neck with his hands, his heart pounding. "Stop..I'm not going to hurt you.." He said, his voice wobbling.
Frost paused nearly on top of him.. "what… wait a minute you're the guy from earlier!" She said softly in surprise, staying quiet so as not to attract the attention of potential night hunters in the tournament.
He nodded quickly "Y-yeah…now..can I go..?" He asked, scooting backwards a few inches "I-i'm getting mud, for my hair.." He added quickly "To camouflage it."
Frost looked at his hair and without saying word she created a ball of ice on the ground and then melted it useing her flames, mixing it she smeared it in the guys hair. And then smeared some on her pale skin. "Better?" She asked simply. Holding out a hand to help him to his feet.
He nodded and took her hand, standing up with her help quickly. "T-thanks.." He said shakily, still wary of her.
"What's got you so freaked out?" She asked keeping her voice low "you're the one that planned on joining this."
"I know, I just…I can't tell you." he said, slowly calming down. he stretched his fingers carefully and took a deep breath, controlling his power.
Frost looked at him confused. "Ok so dont tell me." She said "hey do you want to team up?" She asked on impulse
Ryvan looked at her, slightly shocked "Um, sure. but you do know that only one person can win..and I plan to be that winner."
"So do I.." she replied carefully. " but we can duke it out later.."
He stuck out his hand "Ok, truce for now?" he smiled weakly and watched her.
(Imma be back in a bit K?)
(Back only for about 10 min maybe..)
Frost took his hand. "Truce." She said firmly as she looked around searching for other competitors. "Hey do you wanna find someplace a bit more under cover?" She asked
(Oke)
"Please," Ryker said, nodded quickly "Even with the mud in my hair, and on your skin, we are still pretty easy to spot."
"Yeah I guess so" she said sheepishly glancing at her hair. "Too bad I cant hide my hair all that well." She sighed as she led the way quietly into the woods.
Ryker followed her silently, watching the woods carefully to make sure there was no one there.
(Ty!!)
Frosted the way silently. She kept her cloaks hood up simply for the fact that it hid her hair more than she was cold. Eventually they came to a small cavern in a cliff edge that jutted up out of nowhere for the sake of conveinence to the writers. Frost gestured to the cavern " hows that for shelter?" she asked proudly.
(np!)
He smiled and looked at the cavern "Ten out of Ten," He walked into the cavern and looked around slowly for any other competitors.
Frost followed him in, the cave wasnt huge, but it was certainly large enough for them at the moment. "Want to take turns keeping watch?" She asked carefully.
(Imma sleep now k?)
(K, gn!)
Ryker nodded "Sure, I can take first watch." he took out his sword and walked to the entrance, sitting on the ground and watching the entrance.
Frost watched him carefully before shifting and curling up near the back of the cave.
Ryker watched the enterance carefully, his eyes darting around and his fingers tapping nervously on the hilt of his sword.
(Times skip? Frost would have been on watch for the last half of the night)
(great!)
Frost yawned as she paced the entrance, her fangs glistening white. she paced some more, bored of guard duty but knew full well she couldn't leave until Ryker was awake. She debated going to wake him as she sat down curling her fluffy tail over her paws. her fur was rather thick and her paws were large and her muzzle was a bit stubby. Frost got up again as she paced some more.
Ryker curled into a ball as he slept, his sword right next to him. He rolled over and groaned, rubbing his eyes and sitting up "What time is it.." he asked.
"Morning" said frost as she turned to watch him, she padded in watching him slowly, then she flicked him with her tail for no reason.
