Braum nodded, letting Io return to her brother and Corbin go. Casting a glance over his shoulder, he wondered where Belladonna was. They'd been held up recently, maybe she'd had enough time to catch up? Ah, but he shouldn't have bothered, as his phone vibrated and he checked it. His face was strained with something he couldn't identify himself, and his eyes grew cold. He had held them up for THIS? The raum was furious. At both himself, and Belladonna, and whomever else might have been involved. The words "Candy Cane Lane" really just shouldn't have been uttered to him at all. Period.
Before Yaya had enough time to even recover from Corbin handing her over, he swooped up the girl, curling his wings around her and stalking forward angrily.
"That jack-damned fool.....I tell her to be safe and what does she do? Slap my worry back in my face and go down the most DANGEROUS path she can manage. Tell me, Hadiyya, why must women do the exact OPPOSITE of what you tell them to do? HM!?!?" he grumbled, obviously not waiting any longer in his incensed anger, and casting a stern look at those left from his original group, letting them know it was time for them to all catch up. He was now part of the stragglers. He'd given up his position of authority to buy her time and THIS was how she'd repayed him? Making him look like a fool, waiting on his lady love, and potentially endangering others to do so?
He knew he wouldn't, couldn't, be angry forever, but the bird's feathers were certainly ruffled right now. With no care to the state of his wings, he flapped them three times, gaining lift, and got more height than he would have in the woods due to the mountain's updraft. Angling his body and shielding Yaya from the cold as best he could, he flapped his wings once powerfully and dashed off down the pathway, towards his final destination.
Christmas Town. ((Braum Out. ))

lizbot Kaze Taco ((Oops, forgot yeti did 4 damage from the first attack. Rolling, then will do math. EDIT: THANKS FOR DOING THE MATH!!)) Alwine shrieked, doing her best to dig her fingers into the yeti's furry hug of fury. "Please let me go! Please!!" Alwine was so busy flailing that she accidentally slammed her elbow into the yeti's gut. (Did he have a gut?) Well, she slammed it into SOMETHING. "I'm so sorry!!! Really, here, let me look at that--" In trying to twist out of his grip to look at the damage she had done, somehow she managed to fling the yeti over her shoulders and onto the snowy ground in front of her. "Oops... um... maybe I can look at the damage now? I'm so sorry!! Really, really sorry!!" Lord only knows how she managed to do that. Alwine's HP: 16 Damage: 6 Dismayed at her painfully less than enthusiastic response to the mountains, the yeti got up and reached for her again, "NO LIKE MOUNTAINS?! OK! THIS WAY IS CANDY CANE LANE. DON'T GOT THERE! AND HERE IS A TREE! THEY ARE FRIENDLY!" It seemed to be pretty desperate to get a positive reaction out of her. "YOU LIKE BEACH? WE HAS PRIVATE ISLAND! THE LOCALS VERY NICE!" HP: 1 "I'm sorry!! Please believe me, the snow is very nice. I'll take a tour with you next time, okay?" Alwine tried to examine the wounds that she had inflicted, but only managed to jab him again and again. "I went to Candycane Lane before..." Jab."I've seen the trees..." Jab."I'm sorry, it really looks like I'm doing more harm than good!!" Jab."I'm sorry! I'm-- believe me, I'm so sorry!!" As she looked at the yeti, she sighed and said, "Next time I'll just use the bell..." Alwine's HP: 16 Damage: 4

(OOC POST BECAUSE I HAVE A QUESTION: If you're time is up and you can move to the next zone, but you're in a battle, can you leave the battle and go to the next zone, or do you have to wait and finish the battle, or pretend the character is in two different places and have them go ahead, but finish the battle in the first thread? (Just wondering. Sorry for wasting a post like this. ^^;; I'm just probably not going to be able to get on the computer tomorrow, and I can leave this zone right now, but my character has a battle going on. And thus, by the time the battle is over, she'll be behind by like, two days and such (Which will put her in a completely different group time-wise and such. So, that's why I was asking.))

Alwine picked up the parcel and held it close to her chest.
"I promise, Mr. Yeti... next time I return, I'll use Yeti Yule Tours. You can count on it."
Alwine turned towards the group before trudging through the snow, her opponent a silhouette in the too-white snow. It almost made the haunt look... epic.
"I hope I didn't hold anyone up!" Alwine offered as she looked over the group. "At least Barth's catching up on his sleep... that's awfully nice of you, West."
Alwine gave Barth a pinch on the cheek before stashing the parcel in her carpetbag with her peppermint points.

It was Alwine! And she had murdered a yeti!
"Cool," West muttered.
Yetis were much better than drunk trees, in his opinion.
"It's nothin'." he added, his voice becoming even more incoherent than seemed possible. He really didn't want to talk about his new job as a pack mule.

Eracs had gotten ahead of him, he'd had to stop as his form shifted. Well this wasn't good...he and Draven were both in there animal forms. Dragging his own pack he had Draven's about a front paw and was dragging it as he moved.
Nearly tripping over it as he walked Alerick finally did trip and face plant right into the snow with a yelp as he hit the snow face first. That hurt!
When he got up the werewolf continued on the path until he made it to the exit of the tril and looked down. He'd arrived...finally! Howling in excitement he tried to fun, to the best of his ability given the packs and such.
(Sorry for the editing. Was checking for posts for when I started here and only just found when I got into this area for sure. ::nods:: )

Barth just made a vague "bbngrlz" noise in response to the cheek-pinch. Otherwise, he didn't move, apparently content at his appointed position as a lump. He probably hadn't even woken up.
Well, at least Barth was warm? Like some sort of self-heating backpack.
And had a bell somewhere, presumably.

"Well, um..." Alwine trailed off. She didn't want to call attention to it anymore if he wanted to dismiss it. "I know I couldn't carry him. I tried to drag him once on the train, and he's heavier than it looks... no offense, Barth."
She walked beside the Avarice Demon before shaking her neck. "I'm just glad that I didn't get massacred again. I was starting to regret not bringing a weapon, you know..."
It was true. Alwine had been obliterated before she could heal a single person in the battle against the ninja. At remembering this, Alwine waved her Carol of the Bells over herself.
"How is your cannon doing? Do you need any healing?"
Alwine's HP: 22

Walking by with Raziel, Colette watched Barth climb onto West's back, and she started to feel pretty lazy herself. The ghoul had walked way too far in these heels, but uttered an amused comment while in earshot, "Nice." Colette started to wish someone would carry her too, but West already had his hands full. Well, back, but still: it would be rude to load herself onto him.
She tried to sneak a look-over at Raziel; however, this only made her mentally frown. He was.. small. She pondered if he could even carry her. Though if Raziel were to carry her, well... it would be awkward no matter what, but she didn't know him very well and it'd be a little extra awkward if 5'8 Colette, actually 5'10 with her shoes, was lounging around in Raziel's arms.
She would never ask though, she had too much dignity.
Colette caught the end of Alwine's battle, mostly the Yeti slumping down and Alwine trudging back, but she was impressed. The ghoul made some pretty hard hits. Colette complimented her, "You battle pretty well, Alwine," and smiled at the ghoul. She honestly didn't think Alwine would do so well, but she was clearly proved wrong.

Alwine practically glowed when Colette complimented her. Even though they didn't agree on many things, and Alwine was certain that Colette disliked the haunt's dreadful personality, she knew that she was a great fighter. She saw how well she treated her swords, and she watched her battle countless lecherous trees.
It didn't take much to compliment Alwine, and Colette's words made the girl flush at her neckline. She almost wasn't sure how to respond, and at first could only muster a quiet, "Thank you."
Alwine felt a little self-conscious with all of this attention. She was so used to being a wallflower that she was surprised that anyone had seen her fight.
"Thank you all. I tried to tell the yeti to leave me alone, but he wouldn't listen... he really must've needed the business."

She blinked and stared again at him with wide violet eyes. Maybe he wasn't used to hearing laughing? Going by what she had seen, he never laughed so it was quite possible. New challenge: Make Kilo laugh. Ooh and what a hard challenge that was going to be! But she would try, damnit! If only to see if a) he COULD LAUGH and b) the look on his face afterwards would be priceless. For now, get him used to hearing a laugh and see what the kitty cat liked talking about. There was yet another challenge. Getting him to talk more freely. LW had the suspicion that if she didn't speak, he wouldn't utter a word.
In response to the sudden assault on her tail, the she-wolf moved it from side to side lazily as Kilo attempted to get it. Maybe he was more cat-like than she originally thought? Something to think about. "Sure ya are." She teased and thumped him on the head with her tail before moving it out of range. Unless he wanted to jump at it. Wouldn't that be entertaining?
"Still gonna worry." She shrugged her shoulders and glanced back to see if her path was easier for him to walk on. As she watched that devious glint entered her eyes and she slowly let her tail swing lazily from side to side as she walked. Time to test just how much like a cat he could be. Would it tempt the furball to try and catch it? At least she hadn't chased him to play tag in the snow or something! Must be a canine thing, she thought.
"It is getting colder, Jackdamnit!" The she-wolf growled and her nose twitched before sneezing. Cold. LW hated the cold. This was a proven fact at this point. Apparently Kilometer's hated the cold as well, possibly with more passion. "I can definitely smell some of the...things attacking them. They stink." She shot a look back at him. "Fine, fine. But if I see even one icicle hangin' off your whiskers, I'm not askin'. I'll pick you up and carry you for as long as I can." Alright so that was a half threat. She would pick him up, but if he protested that much she'd put him back down. "We need to find us a fellow student who can make fire. Or something hot." That would be really really nice right now.

The cold was starting to bother him. Though he was thankful he had picked a long sleeves under shirt for his jacket, he was finding that it just wasn't keeping the cold out as best it should. Ah well, his jacket went to a good cause; namely, keeping Io from freezing more than needed. Ghouls, especially hurt ones, needed to be looked after. And he was thankful to see that she would be. And so would the other ghoul who Braum knew.
As new students came, he saw battles come and go before he noticed the bright lights and puke inducing JOY aura that had to only be one place. At LAST... the end was in sight!
((Off to Christmas TORTURE!))

Trira Strait Jacket Girl Trira Strait Jacket Girl Trira : 2 - 6 = 0 points. (Quarria! Stop failing, you huge dragon thing!) "Neither do yours!" She snarled as she was pried off of the big fluff-monster. His pull had barely hurt her. "How about this, you beat me, you get your points. I beat you, I'll take the same amount of points from you, 'Cousin'." PSh, she didn't have a peppermint point to her name, but she'd definitely take his instead of another present. (She alread had one of those in her bag, anyway.) She writhed for a second, and then slammed her head upwards, aiming to slash him with her curved horns. Unfortunely, it was too far away for that, it seemed.Quarria's Health: 20 points.  "All right cousin. You have a deal." HE wasn't too concerned with her and so he tossed her down. HP: 5Damage:6Damage from Yeti: 6 points. Damage from Quarria: Using her bell, this round. "Deal." She said about the peppermint points. Then, getting thrown shouldn't have really hurt. Unfortunately, she didn't crash into any snow, but into the rocky ground instead. She snarled at the yeti, but feeling a bit hurt, swung her neck a bit, to jiggle the Carol of the Bells. It activated and healed her by six points. There, at least she stood a chance now.Quarria's Health: 20 points, again.  "THEN I MAKE YOU PAY UP!" Angered by your failure to pay up, it heaves a large rock...well....okay, lets be honest, it's a freaking boulder, in your direction. HP: 5Damage from Yeti: 0 points. Damage from Quarria: 6 - 6 = 0. QUARRIA FOCUS AND STOP FAILING. When you're thirty-feet of serpent, it's kind of hard to dodge things, Quarria discovered. Luckily, she was beginning to channel her 'SERPENTRAGEFACE' into this battle, and thus somehow managed to evade the huge boulder. Unfortunately, avoiding the boulder had taken most of her time, and she hadn't managed to launch an attack for her turn. Instead she shouted as she dodged (As she really wanted those points instead of another present), "Don't forget our deal, 'Cousin'! When I win, you give me as many peppermint points as you claimed I owed you! Twelve! Got it?"
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw her friend Gabrian defeat the snowman and heaved an inner sigh of relief. And it seemed that their train-car aquaintance, the teal-eyed reaper (Johan, right? She'd met so many people, she was trying to keep track of everyone's names now, and she really hadn't talked to him) was healing Gabrian. Good, now she could focus on her own battle. And then she could serve as the Amphithere Express again!Quarria's Health: 20 points.  "HA! As if I'd lose" He threw another large boulder at his cousin. Hoping to hit him again. HP: 5Damage:5

Mandy was glad to see Winnies fighting spirit was back, she'd shown it on the train but when faced with that Ninja she had frozen. Maybe it was the level, the Ninja had been way more powerful the Yeti. Still, she did good and Mandy made sure to tell her, "Good fighting Winnie, the tours probably sucked anyway. What's to see around here."
That done she gave a look towards the boil caring Barth, West wasn't it? Seeing how uncomfortable he was about the attention to his new job she gave him an encouraging smile and gesturing to the two tents on her back told him, slightly exasperated, "Don't worry, your not the only one being his pack mule."
She still wasn't entirely sure how she'd ended up the tent again after the fight.
