The midnight winds swept through the dark and eerie surface of the lake creating ripples reaching to the shore. Where they broke apart as they stuck a pair of black leather boots. Those boots happened to belong to a little girl she was starring into the starry sky thinking of the event of the previous day whilst stroking her dark hazel colored hair. Lexi was about to return to her siblings when she felt a strange fluctuation from near the center of the lake but when she tries to focus on it she couldn't feel it anymore. Annoyed she stomped her away back kicking up the lake water in her path. Tomas who was meditating was suddenly drenched in dirty cold lake water which broke him from his meditation and opens his eyes to see his petite annoyed little sister.
"Was that necessary I mean not everyone was just slacking off at today's fight you know, so I would appreciate it if you would let me recover my energy" Taunted Tomas as Lexi was coming over. As he knew his sister well and that she would love to fight but for some reason today she was just too stunned and could only get rammed into a tree and spectate the fight. Lexi getting annoyed further froze the already wet Tomas causing him to shudder as he focused on removing the ice then the dirt.
Ivy came back from getting the 'regular' food as they now fell into an odd habit of eating like humans even though they don't need it. She glanced at the dancing Tomas and the pissed Lexi and chose to ignore it and walk towards Dav who was within the stone house he had made, absorbing the wolf-stone from earlier. After killing the wolf they had ran to the lake as fast as possible as to avoid any more mishaps. Almost immediately after arriving at an ideal location Dav had begun to move the terrain around to make a little open, moving the tall blooming trees that seemed to be inhibited by many different kinds of creatures causing them to flee in all directions and again had created unnecessary sounds. Once the commotion died down Dav once called forth huge 2m by 2m stones and made some kind of shelter. Following that he went into one and had begun to absorb the wolf-stone. Now that Ivy returned Lexi went to her own 'home' to change as she felt uncomfortable with wood chips lodged in places that weren't appropriate to talk about. Tom did the same as he was now dripping the dirty lake water after the ice melted he was shivering. Ivy noticing them returning to their respective huts, so she goes for a walk to get some wood as not one of them had the fire element, but with her thunder, she could make the fire so it was all good.
A rich aroma of a roasted boar could be smelled form from their hut to the shore of the lake make not only the Ash Von-Kade children but things that lurk at night come to take a peek at the what was cooking.
Unbeknownst to them, the children had their promised feast a tad bit late but a feast no less. With a full stomach and refreshed mind they all returned to train as it was unsafe to travel at night in an unknown place.
Not too far from their location Erik and Beki were also setting up their makeshift camp on the treetops. Just as Erik was about to lay down he felt his blood run down from the side of the ears and was hit with a sudden dizzy spell. Luckily he got help from Beki, but Erik now thought of returning to the village contemplating a little more he began to cast a spell.

Just like before heat and flames condensed into a snake-like creature as along and Erik's leg, the creature coiled around the tree they were resting; immediately the tree blackened from the touch of the creature. While roasting the tree the creature began to glow a shade of red and solidified its snake-like body resembling a horned desert viper only instead of white and yellow it was marron and burgundy in color, Erik after summoning his familiar heads back to the village. Not before informing the two familiars to bring back the kids only when they all have killed.
Lexi woke early in the morning and went back to gazing at the lake which was getting lit up by the sun rising from behind her. One could see her dark brown hair cascade over her shoulder as she ponders on the mysteries of ice and frost which was created by the cold bitter night. Thinking of ways to get strong.
Unbeknownst to her Dav was sneaking up behind her as he noticed that her attention was not on her surroundings he gathered the dust floating around creating a thin sheet of condensed dirt and pushed it towards Lexi.
Lexi sensing something unnatural pushes of the lakeshore twirling in mid she collects the frost on the lake surface into a cloud of ice shards and sends them wailing towards her attacker. As the shard pierce the dirt sheet Lexi gracefully lands on all four on top of the lake surface concentrating on her attacker.
Dav not ready for a counter is impaled by the shards in the neck which began to freeze his torso and jaw preventing form any blood spilling. Falling to the ground after a fatal blow with shock seen on his hazel brown eye Dav embraces bitter humiliation.
See that it was only Dav Lexi returns to a spot on the lakeshore where the frost had yet to melt. Ivy feeling the change in temperature around gets out of her hut to see the situation. Only to find Dav playing dead and Lexi staring into the water. Annoyed she had to get up for know reason moves to Tomas' hut to wake him up as well.
Before Ivy could even get near his hut Tom jumped out from within startling Ivy and getting Lexi's attention who was coming back from the lake. Dav who was now cleaning up his chest form the frozen blood was looking into Tomas' brown eyes trying to express his desire to get back at Lexi, but he only got a face which was saying "it was all you, man all you". Defeated Dav returns to the center of the four huts.
When everyone had arrived Ivy began to talk, "So now that only three of us need to kill I suggest we get it over with by splitting up in groups of two going on either side of the lake and meeting on the other side of the lake. If we still don't find anything then we will venture near the wolf town to kill."
Dav who was completely ignoring the whole conversation as he had finished his task given by their parents first, so basically he was gloating. Dav was struck by Tom in the back of the head while saying that he and Dav will go hunting together and we will meet up on the other side of the lake at high noon.
With that, they began their hunt leaving behind the now confused familiars as they did not know who to follow. In the end, the separated from each other as the snake followed the boys and the whale followed the girls. But little did any of them know what awaits them if they continue their current course of action.
