Tony just stared at Randy, a look of horror and childish fear on his face. It clearly made him miserable to think that his fingers, according to Randy, might fall off. He looked at his hand, which was numb from the painful cold and stinging mercilessly. He did not like it, not one bit.
He liked his fingers.
"I... I would rather keep my fingers attached..." he stammered, hugging his hand to his chest in an attempt to warm it up. The ice had spread over the top half of his hand, and he was very worried about it spreading further. Though, there was even more to worry about.
The ice princess kicked up the snow storm, making it incredibly cold. Tony shivered, looking at Randy, hoping the boy wasn't freezing. He saw Dogby wiggling in Randy's sidebag, which was now around his own neck, and was instantly worried for her.
"Dogby can't deal with this cold!" he yelped in panic, hearing her whimpering sadly. It broke his heart to know she was so upset, her floppy little ears glued to the top of her head, her stumpy legs drawn up to her as she shivered and snuggled against Tony through the bag. He hugged her to him, trying to reassure her that things would be okay, keeping the arm of his frozen fingered hand around it.
He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked to see Alexis had come over. He was relieved that she hadn't been hurt, though worried that she was still here at all. He blushed a bit when she said he was brave, thinking he was maybe stupid and she was confusing the two, but was hidden under the red of the cold on his face, anyway.
"O-oh, thank you," he stammered, taking the hand warmer, though at the moment he couldn't use it. He would remember it, though, if things calmed and granted them a moment.
"Look!" He pointed with his good hand to the ground, which had been split and shattered by the ice jutting through it. He ran to it, grabbing a chunk of ground and lugging it at the common enemy.
"Randy, help me here," he called, watching as senshi and what he recognized to be negaverse agents, though he had met far less of those and was glad for it, worked to fight with their powerful attacks. It didn't seem to be working, but they couldn't give up hope yet. "Alexis! Y-you should get somewhere safe!"
Because putting a teenager in harm's way and using him as a sidekick was totally fine, but risking her life was out of the question.

This was all so strange! And… ineffective. They were all dancing about the queen with their fancy super-human attacks, and nothing was really happening at all, save for some tiny cut on the woman’s cheek. That was… not really going to make her stuff this attack. If anything, it was only going to piss her off more. Which, really, proved true as the air around them suddenly got colder, snow whipping up around them.
Oh God, he was going to die- he hadn’t even accomplished anything in his life and he was going to die. Than again, perhaps becoming a human ice sculpture was something to call an accomplishment, even if he wouldn’t be the only one to do it.
Shivering, he took a moment to zip up his jacket, letting the leather help insolate him from the cold. Good thing he had decided to wear the thick coat and a scarf, today, as otherwise he probably would have had to flee from the fight in the face of such a terrible turn in the weather. As it stood, he was too invested now. There was no backing down because of a little cold when he had something to protect him from it. Poor Dogby, though, was obviously cold in the sidebag.
When the woman came to join them, the boy took to surveying the battle at hand. Didn’t look like they would be able to do much about a cold dog right now, though, as the queen hardly looked ready to give in. Looking back at Alexis and Tony, Randy couldn't fight the frown that played over his pale face- why was it okay to put him in danger, but not the chick? That Tony: he was such a gentleman.
If only Randy hadn't been born with a p***s.
“Oh, great idea!” the younger man yelped in spite of his thoughts, picking up a bit of dislodged earth himself, “least she gave us more to throw, eh?” He hurled the debris at the queen, hoping it would do more than just bounce off. So far, it seemed they really weren’t the most useful of the fighters there.
But they got point for sticking in it, didn’t they?

He wondered what the queen might say of the snow globes -now-... did she know this woman was coming, Icy usurper...he couldn't believe the queen would -allow- this. If she was in some way tied to those curious snow globes then the figure inside looking so like the senshi queen was brilliant he had to admit. Perhaps... he should reclaim his, just for study mind you.... not that he cared about it at all. Still... you never knew what could be learned, He'd have liked to have captured one of those pest ballerinas flitting about as well but that just didn't seem likely. He darted forward crouching low to try and stay hidden in the press to reclaim one of the snow globes, he had a sneaky suspicion he was courting the worst case of frostbite he'd ever encountered though.

The sight of blue caught Castor off guard. Merope had been hit and the senshi of hail let his mind get distracted for a moment. He didn't have time to check. Still he had something he could send the Princess's way. Another hail storm. A smaller fragmented one, but this time, more focused on her face . Ice b***h.

Much to Ainsley's dismay, she could not seem to get through to the ice princess or even get the attention of her friend. It was getting so cold and Ainsley started to shiver in the wind, clinging tightly to the coat Senri had thrown over her to try and shield herself from the the now frigid wind that was now blowing. Trying to keep her white plush bunny warm as well, she hugged Octavian Oswald very tightly to her chest before trying to hold the corners of Senri's coat over her own.
"It... it... it's so... cold..." She said as she found herself almost freezing in the spot she was standing.

_HP:__ 17,200....HIT FOR 162 DAMAGE!
....HEALED FOR 6 HP!All that aiming for her face did was prove that while it seemed like the right thing to do, it clearly wasn't the solution to everyone's problems. The only blemish that ended up there was the one that had appeared to start with: the crack reflected the intact Christmas lights somewhat oddly, showing that although it was thin on the surface, it was also quite deep. Kaguya offered the crowd a triumphant grin, saying, "Your attempts are valiant and brave... unfortunately, they do you no good. Now, why don't you all stand nice and still and freeze quietly for me?" With a flick of the wrist, the hail Castor had conjured flew right back at him, supplemented by an ice flurry of her own. When Zinkenite approached the throne, he would quickly notice that sneaking away with one of the snowglobes would not be such a simple task. The fountain had been frozen over completely. This meant the strange trinkets had been frozen over as well, the throne doubling as a display case of ice. If he looked at them at just the right angle, he could just barely make out the domed silhouettes of them all, and the shapes of the figurines within. Not only that, something about them looked a little strange. Somehow, they were managing to reflect some sort of light... or maybe... "Give up now before your clothes get all torn up, I beseech you," Kaguya sneered. "I don't want the statues in my gallery to be ugly." ROUND 4 START!!

While the Ice Queen said she would make them pay, would make them bow and teach them a lesson, and show them the mistake they had made when picking up arms to use against her, the smallest crack on her cheek said that they had not been in vain. While everything from blades to magic blast had bounced off the electric-blue glacier of a woman, the smallest chip had shown she was not as invincible as she might have thought. The smallest crack showed weakness and with persistence, an opening to create an even bigger weakness.
Now he wasn't just aiming at her center, he would now be aiming at her face. It was a rather appropriate target considering that her very face fueled his anger, and he had been ready to start again when he noticed another commotion on the corner of his limited vision.
It was two members from his own side fighting someone else, and when the gust of snow and sparkle of more magic blast died down enough to see, he noticed with gripping surprise that it was none other than Castor - his main target - the one senshi he had been looking for, been slicing up senshi in hopes it would lure him out, had even sent messages to battered senshi to give to - right here. It was this senshi who was being attacked, and it was this senshi who might die from some other hands rather than his own.
While he hated the Ice Queen for shattering his heart and hopes, Castor was a personal issue he wished to destroy personally.
Still, there were major issues preventing him from leaping from the group and joining in alongside Lina and Tanzanite. One was that he was under rank, and while it would be assistance, he more or less wanted to shove the General and senior Captain aside to go after the boy on his own. He didn't know what issues they had with him other than the fact he was a main threat, but he felt he had a closer reason that entitled him to kill the boy. The Queen herself had promoted him for such a reason after all. So wasn't that his main goal at this point?
However, he waved the flag of the Negaverse proudly as a protector of Earth. What would be the point if both Earth and Castor with it was killed by this woman?
He was conflicted, and he was pissed. He hated both of them, but he hated himself for knowing he would have to continue to chip away at this b***h of a woman until she crumbled and, with inner hope, he could then jump on Castor and slice his throat or ripe out a well-deserved eye.
Now he had urgency pushing him to kill this woman, and yet he kept his eyes on Castor and the two women. He wanted Castor's blood on his blades more than anything, and yet he was obligated by duty and that pesky thing called priorities that kept him by the fountain.
Even more angered than before, he aimed for the Ice Creature's face in hopes that it would be a critical blow and somehow end the game early. He had other targets after all.

Hit and run, hit and run. Bellatrix's tactic might have been more effective if her hands weren't numb - practically frozen from the cold around her, and the biting cold of the fender peice she had been using as a weapon. She realized she had to let go of it before she herself was hurt., Frost bite would not have been pretty.
Bell once more took to observing, circling behind the crowd. Her blue eyes were serious, calculating. She'd become that way ever since her spiritual struggles with her power sphere. At least, when it came to fighting.
This time, Bell tried to attack the ice princess from behind, releasing her stronger super level attack. Maybe paralysis would at least shut the b***h up.

This was bad.
This was pretty bad.
The ice being showed no sign of weakening howsoever, no matter how many attacks where thrown at her. Even though his makeshirt scarf-head cover, it was cold, and Themis' breath escaped in a puff of white clouds.
This was time for something else. He kicked another shard, aiming right for her face, but then turned and kicked a second, aiming low... Right for where the snowglobes were sitting, as much as a part of him did not want to do it.
If they were what had conjured her, maybe destroying them would weaken her ?

"I'll be home for christmas You can count on me..."
The soft sound of snow crunching softly beneath a pair of boots could be heard the entire length of the alley, no other sounds to muffle it. This part of town was inexplicably abandoned, very few people meandering the main street, and those that did moved quickly, their head turned downward against the icy wind. The figure in the alleyway, however, moved slow despite the biting cold, her footsteps steady and constant. Every once in a while a gust of wind would hit the entrance to the alley just right, the wind tugging carelessly at locks of strawberry red hair, at the edges of her periwinkle blue skirt. Still, there was little response from the girl, even as the snowflakes gathered on her lashes, tossed up by the unusual flurries that had begun to pick up.
"Please have snow and mistletoe and presents on the tree..."
Rea paused at the entrance of the alleyway, blue-green eyes lifting to the hurricane of snow visible even above the tall city buildings, eyebrows furrowing, bringing just a bit of thoughtful concern to what had been an emotionless palette. Free of the walls which had muffled the tempest, she could hear the unmistakable sounds of the fight which raged on, carried by the wind, disconcerting to the Senshi of Dreams. Fights were not uncommon in Destiny City -- in fact, they were more common here than in any other city in the world, although for what reason she had not determined not gotten the chance to ask the whimsical entity who had introduced himself as Kurma. And while it did not surprise her in the least that the negaverse might unleash an attack on christmas, there was something... unnerving about it all. For one, the sounds were too loud for the distance with which she was from the fight. While senshi attacks could be loud, they usually did not span half the city. That could mean one of two things: there were many senshi fighting, or an exceptionally powerful one. One that rivaled Chronos in power.
Sliding her fingers deeper into the pocket of her winter jacket, the Marshall girl subconsciously thought back to the snowglobe still resting on her desk, the hauntingly sweet song imprinted forever in her mind. The flutter of Helios' presence touched her mind, the gentlest touch of feathers.
'It is not the lady.'
Surprisingly, or perhaps unsurprisingly, Rea's first thought was of Chibi.
"Christmas eve will find me Where the love light gleams..."
Unhindered by any passers-by, Pegasus transformed mid-run, an iridescent light and downy feathers masking her, dissipating as she kicked off the snow-covered concrete. She was already panting fast, heart beating fast and hard as she ran, although not from such little exertion -- there was a sense of foreboding, a sense of guilt that tried to bring tears to her eyes, despite how she fought it back. Hadn't this been what she'd promised not to do again? Not to disappear? Not to vanish when she was needed? Falling into a half-crouch, she leaped to the back of a bench, pushing off it to reach the roof of one of the lower buildings, her heals clicking against the concrete as she ran. The rational part of her brain told her to stay calm, but the other part could not help but conjure up nightmarish visions of being too late, of her team and Chibi.
Not even pausing for half a second, she leaped from rooftop to rooftop, until she had finally reached the scene, kicking off the edge towards the battle.
"I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams."
"Dream Concussion!"

Maia frowned her attack was meant to slow and calm her intended target, but she wasn't sure how much of an effect it would have on the ice queen. She seemed strong, very strong, not like the cake monster, no she was a whole new ball game.
She decided she would try another attack of the 'princess', but not her super attack. She needed to save them for when the wicked being before her was weaker.
"Sweet Harmony," she called the music filling her and the lovely notes flying out to surround the ice princess, hoping the cool her temper before she decided to lower the temperature once more. Maia did not think her bare arms could take another drop.
Once she finished siging watching the notes grow closer to her target she turn to find one very specific senshi. Themis, yup Themis. With as much noise as they were making, she bet it he got close and attacked it might do good bit of damage to the giant tempermental sheet of ice. Though maybe not seeing attacks being blown away and bouncing off, but it was worth a shot right. She looked for the boy and once she spotted him headed over.

Castor's words were fuel on an already raging fire, and Tanzanite's temper flared accordingly. While strong and resourceful, Tanzanite's temper had always been her weakness, and baiting her was as easy as could be. The suggestions were vulgar and the reaction they provoked was visceral. Bile rose in her throat, burnt her esophagus and caused her to clench her jaw just to swallow it back down. The very thought of being intimate with the loathsome senshi, paired with the mental image of him with her bluenette friend, was enough to make Tanzanite sick. The darkness in her eyes thickened with every word, until the sclera closest to the sentient arm was a pool of black in which her grey iris floated.
She knew that he was an eternal senshi now, and that the outlook was grim for an overzealous Captain. However, what Tanzanite lacked in magical ability she seemed to think she could make up for in pure, concentrated loathing. She held out her human hand, every muscle tense as she took a defensive stance and crooked an index finger.
“Let's end this, Castor,” she growled, a touch of the youma's voice seeping into her own. She kept her defensive position, waiting as the eternal senshi barreled towards her. Her legs itched to move forward, to meet him in the middle with full force, but the fighter in her knew better. Castor was stronger, he was faster, and his hail attack could have potentially ripped holes in the arm that served as both her weapon and her personal youma. It was something she couldn't risk, not if she hoped to end their feud that night.
With Kaguya's rage came a new wave of cold, the kind that chilled the angry Negaverser to her very core, but that didn't seem to keep the irate Captain from hunching over as Castor ran close, shoulder aimed for his stomach, putting all of her strength into trying to heave him up and over that shoulder. She was aiming to use his own momentum against him, to launch one ice b***h into the other, and send Castor at Kaguya like a living projectile.

This wasn't working. Nothing they did was working. As much as Chromite hurt, and she was hurting a lot now, it was clear that the more they threw sticks and stones and fire and broken bottles at the horror before them, nothing worked. It had felt like all was going to be completely lost, and though Kaguya's cheek had split it was pretty obvious that nothing the throng of usually opposing teens had done was the reason.
So she'd sat the last onslaught out and watched. There was still no difference. Except that it kept getting colder and colder... At this rate they were all going to freeze.
So she had done the only thing the tiny Lieutenant knew how to do- She sketched ideas in the snow. It wasn't really to show anyone else, as the continuing storm kept blowing her "plans" away but it helped her to think. Her fingers were numb, the places that still had icicles sticking out of her had gone completely numb, and her brain was starting to slow down. But that's when the lightbulb went off one last time.
Escaping the crowd wasn't easy, but once she broke free Chromite found the closest high spot she could and climbed atop. She was lucky enough, just this once, that debris and chunks of hail and ice had managed to land in the area surrounding her. So lifting the largest pieces of ice and concrete that she could handle she started to launch them like grenades at the Ice Witch's minions.
"LISTEN UP!" She didn't have much in the way of physical presence but Chromite had grown up with strong lungs and she prayed they'd help her out. Though how anyone could hear her with the howling of the winds ... Well, she wondered if this wasn't completely futile.
"We're already working together- Why don't we start coordinating these attacks and TAKE THIS b***h DOWN."
It was clear from her viewpoint that some senshi had already gotten the right idea, but one or two small groups wasn't going to do much. Wasn't doing much at all. Why couldn't the Negaverse thought of that first? It was their Queen's planet in danger of being frozen over- Shouldn't they have banded together like a proper family and military to take the pretender down?

Alexis watched Randy and Tony fighting, she stood almost behind them, and then noticed poor Dogby. "Ohh, please, let me hold the corgi." She said looking worried.
"If you're not careful the poor thing's going to get hurt." Alexis might not could've done much, and she wasn't sure about fighting but she could hold the dog and keep her warmer. Alexis' Jacket might not have been fancy but it at least helped, even in the possibly deathly temperatures.
-------
((Hugbell attacking again.))
This lady was getting scary. Hugbell frowned, trying to stay close to Chibimoon and the others around the senshi, "It's cold, and she's scary." The chibi senshi whined. It was cold, it was really cold, but she couldn't just leave the others around her. She squeaked when debris came towards them.
Hiding from Castor's backfired Hail attack. She grabbed a snowball and packed snow and hail and ice into it and threw it at the lady again. "You remind me more of a Scary Stepmother than a princess."
