Karienen thumped on the door. "Castor open up." she said hitting it some more. "If you don't I'm gonna-"

"Going to what?" He said finally opened the door and stepped out to his friend. He looked at her angry face and laughed. "Well you look like a marshmallow." he said as he looked at her puffy white ski jacket and snow pants. "Oh real funny." she said. "Come and look at the boat, it just plows through the ice." she said as she put her gloved hand in his and pulled up to the top deck. She was hit with the blast of cold and she frown and pulled over her hood. She walked over and leaned against the bar and looked over. "Cas c'mon." she said motioning. "Look its just breaks the ice as if it's nothing."

Castor sighed and walked over and looked. It was something, but the the kid who was puking his breakfast out didn't seem to find it as fastinating. "Oh Kare check that." he said mothing his head towards Jackson. "Aww, poor guy." she said.

((I failed so badly.))

Chris leaned further out, trying to catch a glimpse of the ice breaking below, he caught his grip on the bar, reas,suring his safety.  He gave a light grin as he completed his task...when he was bored, he often did the most stupid things, for which he was looked down upon for.  Then he saw it...at last, the snowy bank where to thin ice ended... the place where the vessel will drop them off.  He swung back onto the deck of the ship, tapping Yukita on the arm.  "There!" he called anxiously, his eyes glued onto the bank.

Jason emerged from the cabin far below, he quickely pulled his hood over his head, his gloved hands shoved into his pockets.  He strode calmly over to the railing, several paces away from his brother and Yukita, and looked out.  The ice crystals were collecting on the ship's sides... he focused on them as the ship inched closer and closer.

Mystel looked back at the vessel, she gave a dark smile...before fading into the frost's shadows.

((bumpeth?))

((sorry, lol))

Yukita watched Jason come back up to the deck, but ignored him instead of greeting him. She backed up a few paces, unsheathing her sword and examining the blade. "Good, you are shiny and clean and sharp." She smiled as she swung her sword around, completely in control and not hitting a singe ob
ject or person. After five minutes of practice with Sakira, she re-sheathed the sword and looked back out into the snow drifts that would be home for quite some time.

Jason crossed his arms on the railing near the stern of the vessel.  the ice chaving away under the ships's force rang in his hood-covered ears.  He ignored all that was going on around him, his grey eyes scanning the mountain some distance away.

Chris beamed at his brother but ceased his smile when he saw his brother's frowing face.  He let out a deep sigh and scanned the ice caves that the ship was pas.sing.  During his adventures in the mountains when he was young, he and Jason always would explore these magnificent ice caves.  He tapped Jason..."Look." he smiled, pointing the the large hole in the ice.

Jason glanced up and remembered all the fun Chris had in caves.  He gave a light smile but returned his gaze to the ice far below.

Grayson disapeared into the cabin, "Hey Jared I need--"

"Water for Jackson?" Jared finished, without looking up from his novel.

Grayson nodded, catching the bottle Jared flung at him.  "Oh and a--"

 Jared held out a towel for his roomate to take. 

"thanks." he called behing him, running back up to the ship's back deck.  He patted Jackson on the back.  "Its ok...We're docking in about 15 minutes." he tried to hold back a laugh, as he held out the water for his friend to take.  The towel hanging over his shoulder.

Jackson glared at Grayson but took the water, washing his mouth out and wiping his face on the towl Grayson handed him.  "15 minutes my as.s." he growled, sitting back down.

((Im loving the cussing xD))

Mystel grinned wickedly, shifting into her snowy pelt.  Her human features hidden once more by cat like ones.  She narrowed her eyes at the sleeping Rel in one last warning before turning and disappearing across the snowdrift.

The vessel came to a halt, and the anchor was dropped.  The captain lowered the latter and Chris followed Jason down into the tundra.  Snow fluries began to fall from the grey skies, Jason squinted through the whiteness, pulling his pack over his shoulder... he saw the cabins.  There were only two, so no doubt they would have to share.

Chris looked up the ship, holding his own bag.  He and his brother awaited the others.

Chris grabbed Yukita's shoulder.  "Patience!" he joked.  "It might be smart to travel with the others.  The camp is at least a mile away." he smiled, looking up at his brother...who had the same expressionless frown as he did when they first boarded.  The smile faded from his face.

-failness-

((lol wow.))

"Safer how. The only danger out here is getting lost. It would be better for me to get lost than anyone else. I have big flashe sword remember?" Yukita held up the sheath, waving it in Chris' face. "I am just going out a little bit. Not far at all, if you need me than call but I will just be over that bank." She said, walking up and over the small hill.

"Thank god!." Jackson screeched, jumpind down the letter and vomiting into a snowdrift. 

Grayson hopped down, laughing uncontrollably.  "Seasick?" he taunted.  Jackson glared and washed his mouth out one more time, standing on sturdy ground.

Jared came down the latter, grabbing Yukita.  "In the notice it said STAY TOGETHER." he stated expressionlessly.  "Sword or no sword..." he added.  Leave it to him to get stuck with the most hardheaded people.

Yukita hadnt expected to be grabbed, and pulled her sword out in surprise, putting a slash in Jared's jacket. (Not deep enough to cut his skin lol just so you know) "Yes well in the one I got, told me to scout everything. And if we are supposed to be together than why are you all the way up here with me?" She smiled still holding her sword pointed at Jared. She had told a huge lie though, her not had said to stay together but she didnt feel like it. Her notice was like every one else's for the exception of bringing the sword.
