Milton was the one who fell into the water with a thunderous crash first. Ferdinand was still safe and so was Tikaanis. The second splash case once more from Ariane, as the crack iced from F6 had her falling back into the water.
Milton and Ariane both take -1 HP

The second time Gale fell into the water, he didn't even have enough time to let out the string of curses he had been repeating inside of his head like some sort of demented mantra. All he heard was a loud crack and then felt an almost unbearable chill as he was once again plunged into the icy darkness of the water.
This was pathetic. Beyond pathetic. How was it that could spend every minute of every day telling everyone he wasn't a kid, that he was just as capable as all of them were, and then fail so spectacularly at this? As pulled himself - yet again - onto the ledge, Gale was shivering so badly that he very nearly lost his grip, half sliding back into the water, but with an angry grunt, he dragged himself back up and lay there, gasping for air and attempting to keep his hands from shaking.
His mind kept whispering things to him, one of which was you're weak, over and over again.
<< You're doing fine. >> Jinhai said unexpectedly, in an uncharacteristically quiet voice. << Don't think too much. >>
Surprise slipped through Gale, along with the chill. He stared at the ring on his gloved finger, wondering whether or not he'd just imagined the voice, but then -
<< Don't make me repeat it, idiot. >>
The voice was gruff. Gale felt a smirk tug at his lips. He pulled himself to his feet.
"You're on, Ginny."
[ Gale is going to F3, then hopping quickly across to E3.

She was still doing pretty good but Tika wasn't sure if she trusted going straight completely. A few of her team mates had tasted the bitter cold of failure.
Well go on already. Its not like your team mates died in that water. SHEESH. Baby.
Gritting her teeth.. Tika decided to take a step to the side.
((Tika is now on B7))

Bix hopped ahead a square to get right up behind Tika. They were close to the other side. He watched as she attempted to go left but Bix didn't think about tricks or misdirection. He was headed straight. Straight for the other side. He did pause to see if Tika's hunch to turn paid off.
"Almost there." He glanced back glad to see that Gale had finally discovered the path. Hopefully Boss and Before would follow soon behind.
[[ Bix is stepping onto C6 and then B6 ]]

(( Hi I'm a proxy post for Huni ))
There was split-second where Before was tempted to retreat back onto the previous tile but he figured he ought to give it his all and have some confidence in himself. Putting his full weight on E8, Before was suddenly submerged.
Surprisingly the shock of freezing cold water didn't immediately send him into cardiac arrest! Maybe it was because of Vanna's doing? It certainly couldn't be because of Before himself.
The Life Hunter Trainee burst through the water's surface, gasping and arms flailing, trying to grab onto something. Blinded mostly from the fact of Holy ******** s**t what the ******** ******** this is ******** asdkfjslasdf COLD COLD COLD!!!!!, he hauled himself up on the first surface he could grab.
((I'm assuming Before took the plunge on E8, so Before hauls himself up on D8 ))

While Gale and Ferdinand remained on the thick ice, Tikaanis would head the sound of thin ice cracking under her feet.
Milton would find the ice he had cracked originally on his way to his ice plunge cracking once more, and providing no support. As soon as he was out of the water, he was back in. He took another -1 HP before a rush of water gushed out, sending back to where he'd started.

Ice. Cracking..!? Tika is quick to move back to the ice block she was on... With Bix?
"S-Sorry. Ice.. Was cracking...."

"Ah!" Bix was crowded onto a small patch of ice with Tika when her hunch about taking a turn was wrong. "Let's try not to fall.. yeah? I'm going straight for the other side." So far he was soaking and Tika was not. he could at least save her the humiliation that the rest of them had suffered by going first.
"Here goes nothing." The lanky hunter made a break for the safety of the other side.
[[ Bix hurries across A6, hopefully to the other side! ]]

Second time in the ice cold water, and Ariane was starting to look as if the next annoying thing to pop up would receive a punch to their face. Without a word, she dragged herself back up and proceeded to move, this time following the tracks of those who had gone before her, where the ice seemed to provide more support.

One minute, Before was trying to hoist himself up onto one block of ice, the other he was back to square one. He was not quite sure how he ended up back here, unless this whole watery trap was a river of sorts. OR WAS IT A WAVE POOL? Actually, that... that would have been kind of cool. Or Cold. Or Freezing 8CCCCC why couldn't this have been some warm, summery paradise instead where this awesome wave pool (stream? River ride?) would have been enjoyable instead of giving him hypothermia?
Well, silly Before, you should have been paying better attention to your teammates...
B-b-but th-th-that's w-w-w-what I h-h-h-have y-you f-f-f-forrrrr, r-r-r-riiiiiight? JFC, he was even shivering in his head.
Perhaps you should KEEP MOVING?!
Y-Y-Y-YES M-M-MA'AM!!!!! He mentally saluted, somehow managing to get to his feet to get onto one of the remaining tiles that Vanna had pointed out. Hopefully, Ariane wasn't still in a punch-the-next-annoying-thing-to-pop-up mood xAx!!!!!

[Vamps - I'm following the "safe route", please tell me if this is not the case. OTL
E3->E4]
The moment Before joined her, she was off, hopping to the next ice tile while wringing - using a little too much force - the water out of her scarf and her hair. She did, however, shoot a glare in the man's direction, as if to say 'be careful, or else'.

ALAS FOR THE ADVENTURERS! Ariane walked right into an open hole, sending her plunging into the water. And Ferdinand was also not so lucky. He to plunged into the water, but caused every tile in the A row but A1 to break. Still, back to start!
(Both Ferdinand and Ariane have taken -1 HP)

[F3->E3]
This was getting just a little more than annoying. If Ariane didn't hate Halloween before, this house was making her want to go on a murder spree; Kintama chuckled at the back of her mind as she pulled herself out of the water again, this time not bothering to wring the water out of her clothes and hair - she was feeling too angry to feel cold.
She twitched as most of the ice near the end started to shatter, dropping Bix into the water, leaving only one tile at the end.
At lease this narrowed their options.

Bix hauled his soaked a** back up by the entrance again. A good chunk of the ice was now floating freely and after seeing Boss fall, it seemed that previously safe spots were now started to crack and break as well.
He was FREEZING and Mina didn't seem to like the cold either because all he could hear from here was a displeased hissing. She wouldn't be a help to him. "G..g...g...g.." He was going to say 'gotta think about this' but it didn't come out.
He stood just a minute but the longer he stood the colder he felt. Moving would warm him up right? He headed back for his only option.
