Giants of the North!

"Blanc, I think we have to... RUN!"

Aedre suggested after seeing the pack of horrid wolves running across the white thick snow towards their vulnerable location. Blanc, on the other hand, turned her back, approached Cheria, and fell to her knees. She uttered words which were sincere. "What about Cheria? Oh wait... I can carry her", she said humorously as she giggled lightly.

Afterwards, Aedre suddenly approached them and carried both of them. Cheria was held with her left hand while Blanc was held with her other hand, supported by the shoulders. Blanc was surprised with what happened because she felt very light after being carried, as if she's a pillow. "Such strength.... Far beyond mine", she said to herself, looking at Aedre with wide, shocked eyes.

Aedre began to ran quick towards a certain direction when suddenly, her body turned pitch black, contrasting to the color of the pure white snow. Her speed tremendously increased so looking from afar, she could see the gap between them and the wolves getting larger. She was relieved because they were able to escape their blood thirst.

After a short time, they were able to reach the village stated in the job, safe and free from damages. Aedre began to drop both of them to the soft snowy ground on the village square. As she looked around, it was quite a peaceful village. Nothing but roofs and the floor filled with the snow which fell from the ground and windows covered in frost, making it harder to see what's inside. The townsfolk were all wearing thick clothing such as jackets and furry headwears.

In the middle of the town square, there was a huge statue covered in snow. Blanc was laid on the soft ground, while Cheria was laid on top of a slab. Aedre then began to use her capabilities to help recover Cheria from her icy situation. Afterwards, Blanc can see Cheria being covered in water which Aedre conjured. It levitated small inches away from the ground. "What's that?", Blanc uttered in curiosity.

"Its warm so it should help her. She can even break out of it anytime she feels like.", Aedre said in reply to what Blanc said. From afar, the sounds of howls, growls, and stomps were heard by Blanc. Perhaps Aedre heard it as well based from her reaction. "Now that Cheria is safe, its time to have a real battle", The pinkette stated, cracking her knuckles as a gentle yawn escaped her; only to be stifled with graceful mannerisms.

"Let's party!"

Both wizards went out of the village, only to be welcomed by their formidable opponents - the wolves. They were both surprised that the wolves weren't around them. All that they both could hear were strong howls coming from a nearby location and a huge pressure of magic power was exerted from a nearby source. Blanc could feel the strong thermal magic that was used by the mysterious mage. From afar, bright red dancing lights appeared near them. "What was that?", Blanc said, calling the attention of Aedre. She also raised her arm, pointing it out.

Blanc waited for Aedre's reaction. Afterwards, they both agreed on approaching the location where the source of the magic came from and so, they ran as fast as possible, leaving footprints slowly fading after every second. As they were getting closer, Blanc caught a familiar scent just like hers and Aedre's. She said to herself in curiosity, "Another one of us?"
