Leticia wasn't able to calm down just yet, and began to hyperventilate in fear. She was going to die! It was inevitable. She could hear the ice screaming in protest of their combined weight. As she was being pushed towards the bank, Letty tried to help a bit by clawing at the ice, trying to find purchase. Flopping onto safety, she was able to rest for a moment before hearing a much louder crack behind her. Spinning quickly, Letty's arm flashed out to grab Yuki's arm.

Eyes wide and chest heaving, Letty stared at the lake they had just been on. It looked horrifyingly beautiful, with cracks littered across the surface. It looked so fragile. "A...Are you okay?" Letty tugged hard, pulling Yuki a fraction of an inch. She didn't think she had the strength to haul her completely out, but she kept trying. "Can you use your powers to help?"

Yuki was startled, but she was fine. The blast of freezing cold water shouldnt affect her and make her sick. She was surprised when Letty's hand gripped her arm- she didnt expect Letty to be able to help, in he frantic condition. But apparently the little girl was stronger than that, which was good.

Yuki nodded at Letty's words. She felt the water around her legs swirl and began to harden as she kept herself upright. She wasnt quite sure if she was doing this or Chikara was. But she knew she was fine. "Its okay, just let go."

Her hands were locked onto Yuki's arm, and seemed as if they were frozen there. Shaking her head slowly, Letty's eyes found themselves staring wide-eyed at the other girl. "I can't. I'm stuck" Unsure whether it was fear or the cold, Leticia didn't ponder it too long. She was trembling from a mixture of shock and ice. Taking a long and shaky breath, Letty slowly flexed her fingers, and released Yuki from her grip. Cradling her hands carefully to her chest, Letty squinted out at the ice suspiciously. "I don't like ice anymore."

Balling up a little bit of snow, Leticia threw her little snowball at the lake, punishing it for the recent events. Whether it was remorseful or not, she did not care. "I'm cold. Come home with me."

Yuki bit her lip and tried to melt the ice around Letty's fingers a bit as she flexed and pried her fingers off Yuki's arm. When her arm was completely free of Letty's grasp, the water swirling around her legs in the lake froze completely. Seconds after, the ice propelled upwards, lifting her from the water whilst moving forwards. When she was ground level, the ice on her right foot became swirling water again, and she was able to take a step forwards, right on to the snowy bank, and her left foot followed in suit.


Yuki tried not to smile as Letty threw the snowball at the lake. Even though she herself wasn't, she knew that this girl must be freezing. She was kind of surprised to hear Letty's words, but she just said, "Yes, let's go home." She held a hand out to Letty.

Shivering a bit, Letty latched onto Yuki's hand, pulling close to try to absorb body heat. She never did too well in the cold. She thought she would have liked to curl up in front of a fire right now. Looking up and around, she decided that she didnt quite know where she was. "I think I'm lost." The snow had made everything look very unfamiliar, and the snow had already blown over the path she had made to get here.
"Do you know where we are? This is too confusing for me." She didn't really care where they went, just as long as she made it home. Hot chocolate sounded like an excellent idea. Maybe they could hunt some together.

Yuki wasnt exactly the warmest person physically, so Letty must still feel really cold close to her. So Yuki tried to walk faster as she led the shorter girl along. "It's alright, I know the way," she assured Letty. Yuki rarely got lost, especially in the winter. The ice fractals and snow seem to tell her where to go.

She pointed at the building ahead of them. "Look," she said, "Not far now. Lets head straight for the cafeteria, its really warm in there and they always serve hot chocolate in the winter."

The sun was fading fast in the dim Winter air, and the bright grey sky would soon be replaced with nightfall. Clutching at Yuki tighter, Letty let out a long whine. "I'm cooold. Are we there yettt? This is taking too longggg." Shivering, Letty entertained herself with thoughts of curling up in a warm room with a hot drink.
She perked up considerably when her new companion pointed out a building in the distance.

Lifting her legs higher, Letty pranced through the snow, filled with a new energy to get to the cafeteria. "Let's go! Before they run out!"

Yuki let out a small laugh and Letty's antics. It felt good, to laugh. She hadn't done so in quite a long time. "Yeah, lets go!" she echoed Letty excitedly.

She didn't know why she hadn't thought about this from earlier- she stomped on the ground, creating an ice path from where they were to the entrance of the building. "Hang on tight!" she told Letty, gripping the girl's arm herself as she pushed off and starting to glide along the ice path.

Giggling gleefully, Leticia clung to the taller girl's torso as they drifted along together. She was having a very good time, and wanted to go faster. All too soon, they reached the entrance of their destination. Panting a bit in excitement, Letty snagged the wrist of her newfound friend and hauled her inside. "Hot chocolaaaate~!" In a loud voice, she sang the last few syllables and looked around for where the drinks were being served. She could smell the chocolate in the air, but it wasn't visible yet.

Stabbing a finger in the direction of a line, Leticia crowed victoriously. "I found ittt!"

Yuki suppressed another laugh as they entered the cafeteria. It was pretty crowded. Most people were lining up for the oh-so-glorious hot chocolate. The cafeteria staff did do a really good job in making their hot chocolate, so it was pretty famous around the academy.

She led Letty to the back of the line. "And now we wait," she said, giving the other girl a small smile.
