[PP-F4] Cold To the Touch [Vale]

[Swift 0]

As the temperature of the floor dropped to the point of freezing, Swift had decided it'd be in her best interest that she get moving. Although she enjoyed the cold, she didn't exactly enjoy the thought of dying in the cold. When she pictured dying, she imagined that it would be in a glorious way-- A way that she'd be remembered by, for the better that is. She picked up her equipment off the ground and noticed it stung her fingertips to grab things. She had began to shiver slightly, and she was sure that her lips would turn blue pretty soon. Nearby the lake, a tranquil environment she could see many foot prints in the snow, lines on the ice from the people who went ice skating and then there were people like her sitting under trees simply taking in the scenery. Although it was risky for her to leave any town alone, she figured why live a life in fear when she could live a life of adventure instead. After all, this would be the perfect place to go about doing that.

Leaving a trail of tracks behind her, she began to shuffle her feet more and more as she struggled to get them up off the ground with snow up past her ankles. Swift may have been dressed for this type of weather, but the temperatures now had dropped severely. A blizzard began to whip up and before she knew it, she couldn't see anymore. Lifting up the hood that was attached to her gear, she put it over her head and tried to move on, but since she had already been struggling previously she was REALLY having a difficult moment this time around. Swift struggled more and more by the minute and at some point she ended up in the snow, nearly passed out. Everything had become echo-like sounding and her vision blurred until it went black completely, before she knew it, she had grown unconscious. Even had she cried out for help, she was sure that nobody would've heard her. Had she called for help, people would've possibly called her weak, or they would've capitalized on a low level player being on a higher floor with no method to defend themselves.

The cold embrace of the fourth floor, another quirk to train oneself under. The weight of the snow added some difficulty to the mobility of the Panther-like woman, and the lazy grump of a Panther sluggishly walking along to keep up with the hyperactive female fighter. The girl was dancing and dashing around the snow to outmaneuver the Ice Elemental she was doing combat with. There was no difficulty to the movement as the giant being of ice swung its arms around sluggishly. Vale continuously looked around with her eyes to try and keep up with predicting the creatures attack movements when she noticed something important. An unconscious player down in the ground near where the powerful monsters on the lower floor spawned.

Her trajectory lead her over to the downed player, Vale had to change tactics fast to protect the girl from the monster. She was unaware of how strong the person was, but someone being unconscious led the woman to the same conclusion every time, protection had to happen. She dashed over toward the person then rushed toward the Elemental leading all her strength into her fist to knock the giant beast down upon the ground, launching herself back and into the air. She skid toward the person with planting her feet into the snow, stopping just before the unconscious player, "Hey are you okay!? You need to wake up!" She shouted to warn the player of the imminent danger she was in.

While everything around her appeared to be hazy and she heard vague noises nearby, but couldn't distinguish anything. She heard a muffled voice, but remained in her position. Although she couldn't hear the player trying to warn her, she new something wasn't right. The way the commotion sounded wasn't your usual passing of players. Slowly coming back to reality, she could eventually distinguish what the player was trying to tell her. She didn't ask if she was okay in a calm voice, but rather shouted it in concern. Her blonde hair was drenched and her clothes as well. Rolling onto her side, her eyelids very slowly lifted allowing her to see two silhouettes, a feminine player by figure and what appeared to be a monster of the fourth floor. Groaning and shivering both at the same time, she had no idea how long she had been out because the monster wasn't there when she initially passed out.

To her own surprise she had no idea how she was even alive still, did someone save her? No, she was still near the same location. The blizzard itself seemed to have passed over and is no longer bustling up cold air that felt like tiny blades slashing her skin. Turning her head she finally noticed everything around her. She rose to her feet slowly and saw the woman before her still looking at her as if she was awaiting an answer to confirm if she was alright.

"I-- I think I'm alright. How long have I been out here?" She asked with serious concern for what time it was, or possibly even day. Unsure of if it was even possible to last out here that long, but then again in a world like this anything could be possible. "What the hell is that?" Turning her attention to the Ice Elemental based on the red name that hovered above the creature. Backing up out of harms way very slowly, with a slight limp as her body was still somewhat numb from the cold to a nearby tree.

Vale tried to keep her attention on the soul that lay unconscious in the snow, there were far too many variables for her to conclude before she could protect the person. But slowly it seemed like the young woman was coming too. This elegant woman arose unsure of when she had her collapse, not exactly a question Vale could answer under the current circumstances. Vale heard the sound of rocks crashing into a massive dune of snow, flipping her hips she looked back at the creature that was in a full charge toward the two of them. The woman shouted in what felt like shock and fear of the giant-like elemental, nothing that gave Vale a shred of worry if she were alone. Turning her attention to the other girl in her peripheral she noticed the girl was limping toward the tree, the best Vale could do was stand here and hold the attention of the golem.

Vale readied her All Might sword art in her right arm, ready to end the fight in a fraction of a second. But the Golem began to bring its arm down from an abnormal distance, giving Vale zero openings to unleash her technique. Instead of using the sword art to empower her attack, she fortified her arm to attempt to divert the attack of the golem off to the side and away from her body. She managed to re-direct the attack completely, "I'll answer all your questions in a minute. Just get over to the tree. If you notice anything coming up, call out for me!" The Panther-woman shouted back as she turned her attention back to the Ice Elemental, "The name's Vale, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance!" She exclaimed as she jumped back landing just next to the blonde haired girl.

Swift watched as the female was fast with her motions, everything about her was elegant and graceful, yet she still managed to carry through so much finesse with heavy attacks that dealt massive amounts of damage to the Ice Elemental. Shuffling her way through the cold towards a tree nearby, but still far enough off, she watched as the combat went about. It was truly a sight to behold and it was more so an intriguing character she had met. "Vale" She thought to herself, something she did when she was trying to keep something in her head to remember for the future. The Ice Elemental appeared to be so massive in stature and stronger than any enemy she's ever encountered, but Vale was taking it on with ease, being sure to avoid any damage it attempted to dish out while capitalizing on every motion the monster made. The health dropped so quickly from Green, to yellow, now to a hue that was a mixture of red and orange, surely it was about to die within another attack.

As tempted as Swift was to try and go in and fight as well, she decided it would be best to avoid the situation. Eventually she would be as strong as this player, but for now she best lay low and stick to her roots-- enemies that won't kill her with a single strike. After all, if it wasn't for Vale it was definite that Swift would be dead at any moment. She couldn't be more thankful that this person had been around at the right moment.
