It took The Cannibal the longest in the group to notice that there was an incoming threat. Having not been really paying attention to what the others were saying, Akeno had been having a peaceful inner dialogue between her and her appendages, considering they related very well to her thermal dilemma.
Upon gazing up to notice the enemies beginning to rise from the icy lake's edge, her reaction was minimal surprise. It was a quest, right? She figured enemies were gonna come one way or another. No reason to stress over it. With a yawn, she reached her arm in the air, letting her elbow bend into her bag, retrieving her knife.
"Fine, nobody wants to be my friend, huh? Well, I've got friends... Plenty of friends... Ain't that right, huh?" She muttered to herself in an upset grumble. "Ready, guys?" She looked at her hands and feet, amidst her companions being already in the heat of conflict. A smile crossed her previously displeased guise. Lefty always knew how to cheer her up with a good joke, even though he was the problem child. "Good. Game on." Smiling to herself, she darted past her guildmates carelessly, in a spinning, skipping, careless maneuver. While in an almost balletic hop, she offered the commando a smirk and a wave. More kept crawling out, now seeing The Cannibal as their first target, as she planted her feet closer towards where they spawned.
While it seemed obvious from afar that she was doing her whole 'no plan, charge in' routine, she actually had a firm objective set in her mind. To bite off a chunk of one of those ice fellas and see what they taste like. But, soon being surrounded by eight of the clawed creatures, she found herself unable to get close enough to the fearsome foes, kept in a defensive position. Every swing of her knife was used to clang off an incoming attack. Every now and again, an attack would reach through her defenses, cutting down a portion of her hp. But with each strike she took, she grew more agile, fast enough to dodge or parry more attacks, but it wouldn't last forever. At least these guys weren't gathered around the others.

 [attr="class","scare"]EAT SHIT AND DIE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]Damn right he had that one, Rex was cutting through those icy cunts like a machine powered chisel! Though Ray came charging in with the assist, and he wasn't going to complain. The guy was a fucking armored train charging around. The commando gave the man of faith a devilish grin before reaching on his belt to grab a small black square.
With a squeeze of his hand the thing started to blink with a bright red light, and he'd lazy toss it to stick onto the crusader, “Here big guy, go blow some shit up, alright?” Rex taunted before pulling his vision back onto the sights of his assault rifle and firing off at another ice-man that was forming from the lake.
Given Ray charged another group of the living snowmen, the explosive that was stuck to his body would explode, destroying everything around it, and leaving Ray entirely unharmed. Though it wouldn't trigger until there were enemies nearby.
Of course Akeno came charging in like the reckless fucking psycho she always was, and getting herself surrounded by several of the monsters, and far to close to the ice for comfort. Her smile was returned with a snarl of angry teeth from the soldier, “God damn it Akeno! I said stay away from the ice!” He snapped, pointing his shots to help fend off some of the ice spawns that were surrounding her.

Drakka hopped out of the way of one persistent ice beast, waving her tail to keep one off her back. Her face drew back in a snarl before she pounced at one who overshot his punch, slamming it's head down until the thing dissolved into nothingness. Rex's explosion was well recieved, considering some debris hit some of her opponent, their flailing only managing to graze her a couple of times. Akeno's plight didn't go unnoticed, and Drakka dissappeared into the ground as a shadow, weaving for any icy being that Rex's shot didn't hit. She sent a quick claw down the beast's back, trying to dance away but relieving a brutal backhand across the face. It didn't matter at least, a few of the beasts were now leaving Akeno alone, and Drakka couldn't continue her slaughter. One fell apart as she cleaved it down the middle, another seized her in an HP draining grip, only for her to rip it's neck out, and yet another made an obvious charge, only for her Shadow pack to spawn underneath it and claws it into oblivion. Her HP was still green, despite some hits she took, and she refused to retreat as she tore the things apart. kingrex akeno raynauld

"What?! What did you do? What did you-"[break] Raynauld didn't get to finish the sentence; the group he pulled back from bore down upon him and a loud explosion of heat and light ripped through the air around him, incinerating the snow golems and their limbs where he stood. When the world settled, Raynauld stood in a copse of melting snow beasts, unharmed-[break] "WHAT WAS THAT? WHAT'S HAPPENING?!"[break] ...Okay, maybe not completely unharmed. Judging by his off-key shouting, the sound of that explosion played havoc upon his eardrums and deafened him. Once his bearings were regained, Raynauld turned wildly trying to get stock of the situation and saw Akeno, atop the ice they had specifically been told to avoid - and for good reason. Worse, yet...[break] "REX! AKENO'S ON THE ICE!" Evidently he hadn't gotten Rex's earlier statements thanks to his current debuff, "I CAN'T GET TO HER - MY ARMOR WILL CRACK THE ICE!"[break] It was true - Raynauld himself wasn't heavy by any definition of the term, but his armor combined with his habit of trampling over foes meant he was more liable to crack the ice than be any help. Such was the flaw of a Crusader.[break] kingrex akeno drakka

Previously overwhelmed, The Cannibal found herself on better footing with her enemies, after the support of the wolf girl and the commando granted her a bit more wiggle room. No longer did she need to spend all of her movements protecting herself from potentially devastating attacks.
"Thanks friends!" She leaned up on her toes, waving to her companions across the way. "Wha-wha!" Losing her balance, she slipped and fell onto her rumpus, realizing that she had stepped onto the ice. Luckily enough, the slip had allowed her to narrowly escape an attack that was targeted at the back of her head. "Hah!" She chuckled, the ice claws swiping through the air.
"Aiight, gotta make this quicker than usual." Sweeping up back to her feet quickly with a red glow surrounding her, The Cannibal began hacking through the ice creatures, leaving streaks of heat and fire scorching through their icy forms. An effective ability against them, save for the fact that it caused her health to drain dangerously low. At least for the time being, The Cannibal was slicing through ice monsters, leaving only one more in her vicinity.
"Easy peasy! See, you guys don't gotta worry bout me!" And just as it seemed things were fantastic, perfect as could be, her bloody glow faded. Her life reaching minimal numbers, there was nothing left to drain. "Urm..." Carefully stepping backwards, as the final ice creature approached her, she felt the ice crack and waver beneath her feet. Another terribly unfortunate situation for The Cannibal to have gotten herself into.

[attr="class","scare"]EAT SHIT AND DIE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]Drakka was doing some work, which was nice when him and Ray were basically forced into babysitting Akeno from certain death. In a brief second he'd toss out his ariel assault drone, setting it to follow and support the shadow wolf, keeping her flanks safe when she was darting around slashing fiendish snowmen.
This way he could keep his attention focused entirely on the man eater and her bullshit suicidal flaming dagger sweeps. She did at least remind the Commando of his own deadly arsenal drawing out from his belt a grenade and flicking it's pin away in a single hand, tossing it towards the red head, it would explode into a sticky flame, showering the ice soldiers in it and causing them to flail about in a melt of agony.
“You dipshit! Get behind Ray until you can eat something!” Rex snarled out towards Akeno, raising up his assault rifle to again pop a few shots towards some newly forming ice monsters, though he'd finally ran dry on ammo and had to reload for the moment...

Drakka suddenly jerked up as a horrific crackling sound practically rumbled up through her paws, to Raynauld's scream that Akeno was on the ice, cause of course she fucking was! Her attention lapsed momentarily before Rex's drone peppered the beings with bullets, giving her enough room to think. Her eyes flickered over her menu, her Shadow Walk wasn't cooled down and she was too big to go onto the ice, " Hang on like two seconds!" She howled, turning to bash another around the head, spraying icy shards everywhere but breaking her balance long enough to get pricked by claws. Her shadow walk became available, and she turned to Akeno, " Stay still! I'm gonna get you! You guys, don't let me die!" Words spoken, she swirled into shadows, one of her shadowy pack jumped out and ran besides Raynauld, supporting him while Drakka was gone. She herself zipped toward the trapped Cannibal, angling herself to fling out of the way of the ice. As soon as she was in the clear to get Akeno out, she jumped out of the shadows. She wouldn't touch the ground, opening her mouth to grab Akeno and hopefully fling her out of the way. Whether or not Akeno made it all the way, Drakka wouldn't make it all the way, instead her back legs would break through the damaged ice and her HP dropped as the horribly cold water bit through her fur. Trapped momentarily, she clawed and failed as she tried to climb back up. kingrex akeno raynauld

So, this was how they were to die: In the lake of Cocytus, because they just kept jumping in one after the other, as if lemmings caught in their anecdotal runs. Lovely.[break] Even if Raynauld could have saved Drakka, it would just mean trading her life for his, nor could he get to her if he wanted - more of the snow golems rose and bore down upon him, forcing him to play a more defensive game than usual (hah-HAH! A joke! How humourous).[break] Also, his ears were STILL ringing! Finally, however, he caught sight of what was in the sky and realised a plan.[break] "REX! THE DRONE! HAVE THAT GET DRAKKA! IT'S SAFER THAN- Geh!" A snow golem used the opportunity to punch him upside his head for not paying, which Raynauld met with a smiting blow from his flail in a desperate bid to keep them from Akeno.[break] "I HAVE NOT YET DRAWN MY LAST, FILTHY DOGS OF THE NORTH!

Akeno, thrown away from the brink of death by her companions, landed hard on her side with a thud, just next to the commando. Scrambling to her feet, she assessed the situation, unaware of what to do.
"Thanks for the help, wolfie! Someone is gonna get you outta there, don't worry!" She waved from afar to her friend, now in a worse predicament than she was in. Pushing herself to the brink of her capabilities, she pulled out her slingshot, firing pebbles down at the remaining ice monsters. In little bursts of fire, the pebbles seemed to be super effective (Pokemon reference)!
The strategy was working, keeping her on the brink of death, but not yet dead. As long as she didn't get hit by anything, or a strong breeze didn't come through and push her over, or a bit of snow didn't get in her boot, she'd probably be pretty safe CHILLING at one hp near the commando. Balsy plays were made.

[attr="class","scare"]EAT SHIT AND DIE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]Instinctively the Commando reached out to roughly grab at Akeno's clothing and drag her towards him, making sure she was clear of the fight, his eyes never leaving one of the ice monsters as it lurked closer to him, blasting off a few shots into it's chest as he leveled his rifle within one hand. “Back! Fucking get back!” He snapped towards the cannibal, shoving her away as he rushed forward.
“Already on it!” Rex answered towards Ray before smoothly swapping to his shotgun and blasting out the legs of one of the angry mutated frosties, the tall creature slumped forward and Rex used it's body as a stepping stool into a high jump that allowed him to grab onto the base of his drone as it came buzzing towards him.
The instant weight caused the aerial machine to dip violently into the lake's ice, carlo's boots skidding along it as he skated towards Drakka and scooped up the wolf in his free arm. One of the ice monsters reached out to gash Rex's side, dealing some good damage before the man pulled them away with his drone to the safety of the snow on the bank.
He'd let the animal go when they were safe, giving Drakka a grin before his tone shifted back to his brutal seriousness, “Alright, change of fucking plan! I'm going to put some charges on the ice, hopefully break their spawn! Cover me!” The commando ordered before he again reached for his drone, lazily swinging his gun towards an approaching ice golem and giving it a good blasting.
Once again the soldier would be airborne and on his way over the ice closest to their position, reaching to his belt to drop those powerful black squares of sticky C4. Though some of the ice-men had glanced up towards the man, and raised their long and sharp arms of ice, spilling out shards of cold projectiles trying to knock him down!

Drakka couldn't keep silent as the cold cut into her legs and back like knives, crying out as she clawed at the rapidly breaking ice, " You better not like me fucking die! Fuck, fucking hell, I'm gonna freeze-agh!" For once she wasn't complaining at Rex touching her, hoisting her out of the water...it wasn't that much better, touching the snow with soaking wet fur. She trembled pitifully for a few seconds, breath swirling around her like white fire as she felt her legs painfully come back to life, " O-oh G-G-God. Don't-Don't do th-that Akeno!" She managed, wincing as her teeth chattered together hard enough to send a jolt of pain down her mouth. Her Shadow pack circled around, pulling an ice being down as it tried to catch at Drakka. She forced herself to move, clawing uselessly at an ice being, dealing some damage but managing basically nothing, " Go for it Rex! I'm gonna die of cold before all this is over!" kingrex akeno raynauld

"DEUS VULT!"[break] Raynauld was already on the defense of Rex and his drone, leaping to catch projectiles between his armor and his shield; his God willed it, after all. It got him enough attention, and with that he waded back into the fray, swinging his flail.[break] With Rex occupied, Akeno already at low health and Drakka effectively crippled, the entirety of Rex's defense fell on his shoulders... no, everyone's defense fell on his shoulders. Again. And the Crusader very much fought as if possessed, swinging his weapon less as if he were a knight and more as if he were a madman. Enemy blows came upon so strongly that his armor finally began to give way, cracking and breaking off into small chunks.[break] "I have NOT YET FALLEN! FAITH IS MY SHIELD! FORTIS IN ARDUIS!"[break] Raynauld's armor (what parts remained) shone white, crimson threads tightening and reinforcing what remained of it. His inner light shone through, devotion to protecting the team working in tandem with Lasivia's vows. And he continued to roar every sentence, though... maybe some of that was because he might have still been deaf.[break] "DOLOREM IPSUM! NEC TAMEN AMOR CONSUMEBATUR! NIL VOLENTIBUS ARDUUM!"[break] All he had to do was hold until Rex was finished. Then he'd come back and finish this job, and they could go home alive.[break] kingrex drakka akeno

Feeling that most of her work was already done, Akeno watched from where the commando had left her. Hands on her hips, she admired their brave efforts. Gun guy flying on to get wolfie. Wolfie having flown into get her. The Commando chopping up stuff. It was a wonderful display.
This admiration of her teammates was only cut off when she realized three enemies still approaching her. Bored with it, she sighed, in disbelief that the fight wasn't over yet. Holding her knife pointed at them, she growled.
"I thought this was done with! We've already killed like a million of these things!?" The three continued approaching, nearly at her position. Fighting at low health was risky, even a psychopath like her realized that. Taking a cautious step back, she shouted at them. "No, stay BACK!"
"No, no, no, no, NO! Bad ice monster!" She demeaned them for their disrespect of her and her companions. "You should be NICER!" She growled, stomping her foot in the snow. The three creatures stopped, confused and tilting their heads at her. "That's right, be civilized."
A few more of the creatures followed in, raising the total to six. Akeno's eyes dashed around, shouting mad at them, like a fiercely disappointed parent. Each of the creatures left dumbfounded by the display, immobile for the time being.

[attr="class","scare"]EAT SHIT AND DIE! [attr="class","scare1"] [attr="class","scare2"] [attr="class","scare3"] [attr="class","scarewords"]Ray screamed some weird shit, but did some awesome things. Rex was pretty pumped to see the guy charging out and deflecting off those painful shards of ice that had pierced him and his drone, though the crusaders defense was enough to keep him fluttering around and dropping black bricks of C4 over the ice, this was gunna be big!
Eventually the ice would be dotted with flashing red lights, it was fucking Christmas alright! Rex got himself back on the coastline dodging past a few icemen and reaching to grab the trigger to his explosives, he'd give a desperate look to his teammates, “Get the fuck down!” He yelled, flailing into the snow and cover his head before clicking the trigger.
BOOM!
Half of the lake's ice went up in one hell of a fucking explosion, giant chunks of frozen masses went soaring in all directions, and the cold unfrozen water beneath it splashed out causing the most unpleasant downpour of chilling rain. The sound of crunching and shifting ice was deafening, and black smoke was quick to filter upwards into the sky from all the heated explosions.
Now if they could just deal with what was left of the evil snowmen, and nobody got crushed from giant pieces of falling sharp ice, this plan wouldn't be as stupid and reckless as it already was! Rex was just getting himself back up, crawling on all fours and shaking the ring from his ears...

If the others were hard of hearing after all the shit that was going on right now, then Drakka would love to hear what they were hearing without animal ears. She more or less felt the explosion rather than heard it, flopping forward with a hissing yelp as the force hit her full in the back. For maybe two seconds she felt warmth as the explosion washed over her, then the pinpricks of cold stung through her fur, scales running with melted ice as she struggled to her feet. Her back legs were frozen, and it didn't take long for her to conclude that some kind of movement debuff had been placed on her. " Defend me!" She snapped as another Shadow pack spawned before turning and gnawing on the freezing ice, thawing herself out before something could jump her while she was down. For their part, the Shadow Pack preformed gallantly, leaping and springing silently, reinforcing the area around Drakka. An icy being moaned in anger before shattering on the ground. One Shadow Pack swirled into nothingness as an enemy stabbed it, slamming the poor thing on the ground...but Drakka's feet were free...and she jumped. The shadowy pack member jumped up too, tearing off its armor at the same time Drakka ripped at its throat. It was gone in seconds. As the Shadow Pack, adding up to two as another spawned, ran off to sate their bloodlust even more on the enemies, Drakka looked around. How were the others? kingrex akeno raynauld
