... let me guess: That's going to be Boreas' opponent?

Boreas, too, watched the hand intently. He placed his hand on Jeek's shoulder. "Could it be related? That fairy it targeted just participated..." He let the thought trail off, but he was deep in thought. He was morbidly curious, and a bit worried, at that event.

Ryan was a bit confused. "Okay, what was that?" He found himself asking, perhaps a tad too loud.

"Doctor! Medic! Somebody help!" George cried out.

Throughout the strange episode Autie had stayed silent. Transfixed on the plated figure. The moment he left she wavered, as if released from a trance. George had grabbed her shoulder to support her.

And she had passed out.

Mari stared in shock. Red saw what happened and let go of Mari.

"Help! We need help over here!" she called.

Mari forced herself to yell as well. "Help!"

"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."

"It seems they're distressed. Should we investigate?" Jeek looked to her allies. She didn't feel particularly motivated to, but she didn't speak for the group. Besides, they may find something there. Then again she didn't want to make herself noticed... and on the metnal battle went. Vareth stayed silent on the issue.

"Umm... Investigate? Why not help them?" Was Ryan's reply, before beginning towards the ice fairy. Boreas waited a moment, perhaps to give Jeek and Vareth a moment of choice, before following. If what he had seen of the battle was correct, she too was connected to the chill.

"Come on, Autie! Wake up!" George shook her gently as he could with trembling hands. "Speak to me!"

The blue haired girl's face moved a bit and she murmered something but other than that remained still.

Doug had signed in quietly enough and he and Horroce had entered the arena viewing area. Pretty spacious, considering it was built in a sewer. But he'd frozen up when he saw the first round's participants. The Tick-Tock Man was no stranger to either of the two. They'd seen him fight once before, in another tournament in New Guiera. The clock-faced Companion had annihilated the first three opponents he'd faced each in a single move. Doug had quickly withdrawn Horroce before their match with him and hightailed it home. Horroce could probably survive that one attack, he was just as alien inside as out; course, there was nothing stopping Tick-Tock from unleashing a whole ton of such attacks and reducing the massive red monster to a fine paste.

And so they knew the outcome of the first match before it had officially begun. Doug decided to make better use of his time by looking for a snack bar. The match had ended before he'd moved ten paces.

During the second match Doug and Horroce's quest for edibles succeeded when they found a small group of shady individuals selling food out of crates, cardboard boxes and large ice-filled coolers. Doug wisely decided to buy only items that were prepackaged, most of which were also labeled "Not for Individual Resale." But such is the quality of service at an illegal event.

The crowd parted a bit around Horroce as the pair made their way toward the familiar faces of Zach and Esmerel. The large Companion was cradling a decent haul of snacks in his arms, and his middle face was contentedly sucking on the business end of a lime-green popsicle (which was odd considering the now closed mouth normally held an eye). Doug ignored the tall stranger and his lady friend, tapping Esmerel on the shoulder with a chocolate bar. "Did I miss anything exciting?"

Red looked at Autie, thoroughly concerned. She'd wanted to make friends with the fairylike companion. Mari knelt beside her own companion. "Red, we need to get her some help."

Mari took a deep breath.

"Go see if you can find anyone to help."

Red looked shocked. "But then I have to leave you! I'm not leaving you alone!"

Mari looked fairly shaken herself. "Please Red, don't you want to help them?"

"B-but..." Red looked away briefly, and sighed before straightening her cap. "Fine."

The little girl headed off into the crowd, in search of help.

Vareth chirped happily from atop Boreas head as the large man started to move forward, following Ryan. Jeek shrugged to herself and headed after them.

They came across a group of four people; three younger girls and an older man. The smallest of the girls, smaller by a great deal, seemed to be passed out, and the man was frantically trying to wake her up.

They were the winners of last round. Does that have anything to do with this? Jeek echoed Vareth's exact words aloud, wondering if anyone could provide a response.

Is it related to Damaged Man?

I doubt it, the companion was targeted, not the human. That wouldn't fit what we know about him so far.

Jeek sent the mental equivalent of a nod, and stood by a wall, watching the crowd from close to these four, one hand behind her back. She'd be ready if another one came at them.

Red pushed uncomfortably through the crowds, trying to keep her cap from being dsiplaced with one hand. She occasionally muttered excuse me, and eventually wound up tripping over someone's feet.

"Oof... mmg.. I need to find some help!" she stood back up, and resumed trying to push through the crowds again.

Boreas knelt down to speak to George, either unaware or apathetic towards the fact that Vareth was on his head still. "Your companion has an affinity for ice, right?" He asked, stoically. Ryan also knelt down to their level, but seemed to care more. Or maybe he just showed it more.

"What happened, exactly? We saw that thing go towards you guys, but that's about it..." The boy asked, hoping to get to the source of this.

"Don't know." said the confused George. "Sh started saying something about ice cream and then that - that thing appeared and next thing I know she was passing out!"

Belatedly answering Boreas, "Yes, she was born from a blizzard!"

"Then I can help," Boreas replied, his hand beginning to mist. He passed it over the small form, as from his hand came small snowflakes, each delicate and beautiful. They all slowly fell over her, dusting her in a layer of snow. "If snow has given her life once..." He said, mostly to himself. It seemed almost poetic.

Ryan just watched. This was a new tactic, one he hadn't seen before. Then again, Boreas was always the one who was more mature, and the quicker thinker... "It'll be alright, mister..." He said, trying to calm the man.

Vareth squawked and launched himself from Boreas' head. He fluttered around a bit before landing on Jeek's shoulder, in his preferred spot. it seems we have a large collection of companions with control over the cold here he intoned with a bit of pride. Jeek was glancing between the situation at hand and the crowd in general.

Vareth then removed himself from Jeek and glided down to the unconscious human-with-wings. He looked quizzically at the girl and re-adjusted his wings, but couldn't think of any way to help.

Autie's eyes fluttered open. "George?"

"Autie, you're awake!" her companion said joyfully.

"I'm hungry, is Ma baking anything today?"

George stared for a moment then laughed. "She's fine!" He told their new friends. "She certainly is fine!"

He lifted up the fairy and turned to Boreas. "Thank you sir! Don't know how i'll repay you!"

Mari didn't outwardly smile. But she was glad that the man's companion was alright. "That's good, I can call Red back now."

She stood up, and called for her companion. "Red! She's alright, you can come back now!"

Red did not come running back.

"Red?"

-

The press of the crowd was very, very uncomfortable. It was getting to the point that Red was having trouble moving at all, let alone progressing forward. She thought she heard, on the edge of her hearing, Mari calling for her.

"Mari?!" she responded. "Mari!"

She tried to turn and fight her way back through the press of the crowds.

At the cries for the companion went out, and were unheeded, Vareth looked up. Finally, something he could do! He recalled and implanted an image of Red in his mind, jumped up, chittered at Mari, then blinked out of existence.

About five seconds later he appeared at Red's location, chirped once, and started flying in an oval path pointing in the direction of the rest of the group. Tell Mari Red is alright, just trapped in the crowd. I will guide her back. Ayajeak relayed this message.

Red looked up, recognizing the draconic companion from before. After a few moments, she put two and two together and began shoving her way back through the crowd, trying to go in the direction that the other companion was pointing in.

-

Mari relaxed considerably, back in her montoned, neutral-expressioned demeanor. "Oh, that is good. I sometimes fear that she is overconfident, I would not want her to get lost in the crowd."

Or be found by that... thing...

Taller then most the others George, still carrying his Companion, joined in looking for little Red. He spooted the flying Companion coming closer to them. And just below him navigating her way through the crowd was the lost Companion.

"There they are!" He pointed.

Jeek looked at Boreas, after having seen his abilities. "I suppose we can join up with them, make a little pact of cold-weilders?" The thought struck her as humorous. They'd have to come up with a suitably cheesy name, and then maybe outfits. The potential was terrifying.

Vareth just laughed a bit, but all in all supported the idea. Always good to have friends.

Besides, Jeek thought, they owed Boreas one now, didn't they? I guess that would make him the sort of leader. "Up to you, boss." Ayajeak added half-jokingly, after the thought.

Mari quickly pushed her way towards the voices. Red had already made her way to George and Autie.

"She's okay?" Red asked. "That's great! That thing was really really freaking... I didn't like it at all."

"Red!"

Red looked up, only to be hugged by Mari, who said "I thought I'd gotten you lost there for a minute."

Red giggled and shook her head. "Me? Lost? I never get lost!"

"There is no need," Boreas replied to George, deadpan. He allowed the man to go off and help in the search for the other companion. To Jeek's suggestion, Boreas shrugged. "I think that it might happen despite me," He commented, stepping back to allow the others to search for Red. He had done his part. Though, a little thought had occurred to him. "Did you not figure out my abilities earlier?"

Meanwhile, Ryan was glad Autie was okay. Ecstatic, even, yelping in joy. Of course, he began to follow George to help, but noticed that Jeek and Boreas had stayed behind, so he decided to stick with them.

"When I shook your hand, I had an idea, but did not know how far the powers extended. You seemed to be able to form the snow out of thin air. Vareth cant do that, but he can chill the air to extremely low temperatures." Jeek said, in a quiet voice to not tip Vareth's hand.

Jeek looked to Ryan as he started to advance, but noticed them not moving, halted. She smiled and moved forward herself, as if to encourage the action. Off the principle of communal agreement, it seemed the group shuffled forward.

Vareth appeared in the airspace above Boreas' head and settled on it again. He thought it was a tactically advantageous position, this height. It was also very comfy. The small dragon snuggled down into Boreas' meager hair and resettled his wings.

"Vareth seems to enjoy my hair," Boreas commented, perhaps more stoically than most would have done so. He followed Ryan at Jeek's encouragement, but moved slowly, behind the group, taking his time, perhaps mimicking the movement of a glacier. He continued in a quiet voice so only Jeek, and he figured Vareth too, could hear, "I take moisture from the air." Perhaps he was trying to correct the boy's statement of "out of thin air"...

"You guys all okay, then? The both of you seemed to be in quite a shock..." Ryan commented as they approached the happy reunion. He seemed happy, almost like he had forgotten where he was and what could happen to Boreas.
