Frozen

[Ken]

Traveling from the Northern Cave Center down towards the Icicle Inn wasn't a smart idea. Especially if one doesn't have a map.
Ken took this chance however. With Mako's harness rope clenched tightly in his right hand. The large Bird walked through the deep snow, keeping his eyes on his master.
Ken was shivering, hugging the fur coat close to him as his insalated boots wrapped around his frostbitten feet. His blue, chipped lips shivered as he walked slowly through the snow. His eyelashes were frosted with snowflakes as it snowed slightly.



He was looking for Midgar, the place where fighters get the chance to find a way into the ring. Ken wasn't a fighter, but he had the note of his dead father that kept him going towards it. If anyone finds that he is of ShinRa blood, he would be killed. He was afraid but, more loyal then scared.


His black hair that poked from his fur hood was also frosted with the snow. He didn't know how far he had traveled...but not far enough. He was lost. The only comfort he had was the small warmth from Mako.
The bird looked down at Ken and nudged him softly. Ken looked above and gave Mako a quant smile and reached up, rubbing Mako's beak. "Good boy. Don't worry, I'm fine." which was a lie, he was freezing inside out. The fur coat wasn't strong enough to keep his body warm. He could no longer feel his fingers, like they might break any minute.
It wasn't long when Ken tripped over the coat and landed face-first in the burning snow. He pushed himself up but fell as his shivering arms let go of strengh. Mako squacked as he sat next to Ken and nudged him once more. Ken looked at the bird with one eye open. "Get help Mako...before i freeze to death."
But the loyal bird wouldn't leave Ken's side. Mako wrapped his yellow wing over his freezing friend, hopeing that it would warm him some. He pulled his head high in the air and started to squak for help...someone else must be out here.

OCC: nice writing.

the sword gleamed strangly in the misted light. a crack of wood. the figure jumped back from a falling branch and continued her exercises. she spun faceing another tree her long silver hair flying out behind her. her mako green eyes narrowed at the next tree but froze and she looked around.

"what the?" she could hear a noise of some type. she frowned and her sword disappeared without a trace of it orginally being there. she hurried quickly towards the noise. it was chocobo, she was sure.

OOC: just so you know, Eve is Sephiroths sister *grin* and there could be a possiblity of her and Ken already knowing each other. *rasies eyebrow* maybe?

[Ken]

OOC: maybe Thanks for the info!


Mako stopped his help screen and looked back down at his friend, who was shivering, holding mako's wing tightly over him. The bird pulled his head down and nudged Ken again, then again and once more after, getting no reply. Mako became upset and started to flap his other wing violently, making some of his yellow feather fly into the air and land softly on the cold snow. He raised his head once more and squaked for help. Ken would surely die if help did not come.

[Reno]

Eve frowned stopping by a tree and looked down. it was a chocobo. she frowned jumping down, "hey quiet down..." thats when she caught sight of the man, "my god..."

[Ken]

Mako looked up at the silvered hair woman and made a quick squak. He settled down, the feathers stopped flying, and he nudged his master once more. And again, but there was no movement now. Mako let out a weak squak as he looked back at the woman, maybe she would help ken.

[Reno]

she frowned walking over. she kneeled next to the mn and touched his face then checked his pulse. he was alive... but he was freezeing... she hurridedly took off her long clock and wrapped it around him then lifted him up onto the bird. she grabbed the Chocobo's harness and pulled slightly, "come on."

[Ken]

Mako pulled his head down and dug his talons into the ground below the snow. He wouldn't budge. He squaked as he glared at the woman. He didn't know her, for all her knew, she might be a foe. He wouldn't let any stranger lead him anywhere.

[Reno]

she glared at the bird, "move your damn feathers or you're master will die in this cold."

[Ken]

The bird let out a loud squak and ran towards the stranger fast. He quickly headbutted her, sending her onto his back. He then dashed through the winter trees, not knowing where to go. Hopefully the woman would be bright enough to grab the reins and lead the way.

[Reno]

"well.... thats better," Eve said holding onto the man then grabbed the reins for balance. she sighed and began leading. Icicle Inn wasn't far.

[Ken]

The bird took a right, dodging trees as the woman led him. Snow was picked up behind as the big, yellow bird seemed to glide through the snow gracefully.

Ken laid in the stranger's arms stiffly. His eyelashes were frozen to his skin, making it impossible to open them. It wouldn't matter anyway, he had fallen under freezing shock.

[Reno]

Eve held the man closer. her clock could only give him so much warmth.

ten minutes later the town was in sight. Eve sighed with relief.

[Ken]

Mako squaked as he saw the town in sight. He pushed his cold legs harder and soon arrived at the entrence of Icicle Inn. He stopped quickly, almost sending the stranger and his master flying from his back. He poked his head about and wondered when the stranger would help Ken.

[Reno]

Eve frowned getting off and picked up the mnan from the bird's back. she was grateful kit was such a small town. she nodded to the Chocobo, "follow along if you'd like." she walked off quickly to her house.

[Ken]

He squaked and trotted behind her. As he did so, he looked around the town, how could they stand such cold? It killed his master!
The bird became upset from the thought and started to flap his wings once more, sending out the yellow feathers.
