Waking the Demon
It wasn't long until the group reached their destination. The ice around them certainly did set the stage; it was freezing; enough to actually cause Vivian's teeth to chatter- and she was the fire user of the group. Vivian held her arms, shivering.

Iris seemed to chuckle at this, finding Vivian's suffering rather amusing. "Harden up~ We're almost there, after all~ Cides, your body should keep you warm..."

Vivian growled, "Easy for you to say..."

Wendy had crawled back into Jason's kosode, somehow curling up inside and only keeping her head out to see where they were. Cute as it was, it was also hilarious but Iris had gotten through making gym jibes. "So we're here..." Jason looked around. If it wasn't cold, one could assume this was a mountain of pure crystal, diamond, sparkling as the light hit. However, this was a large mountain made entirely of ice, and it didn't have the durability of diamond at all. One wrong move and they could crumble down with it.

"W-w-w-where's the d-d-demon?" Wendy was still chattering, even though it was quite warm inside Jason's clothing. Maybe she was actually a bit scared.

Iris's ears perked up as she focused her vision. "We should meet it in a few moments...granted it suddenly doesn't jump out of nowhere. That tends to happen a lot..."

Jason's Gehaburn summoned itself into his arms, and it was trembling. Jason looked at the blade, curious. "Gehaburn...I see..."

"What's wrong?' Wendy asked, looking at up Jason.

"The demon is coming." Jason replied, smiling the smile he did when something was about to be slain by his sword. "Gehaburn is trembling with anticipation."

"SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!" A haunting roar reverberated throughout the air, rustling whatever grass was there and cracking the ice through sheer force. This instilled a feeling of sheer terror in many of the members of the group. But what was worse...was it's demonic visage.

It was enormous dark azure, humanoid demon that towered over mountains. It had a large torso and two large arms that ended in large, scaly hands. In addition, it had two large legs that ended in feet that resembled the feet from a large bird, it also had large spikes on the back of its feet. It's facial features consisted of a wide, cavernous mouth with multiple rows of sharp, pointed teeth, as well as a spiked chin and crimson eyes, and branch-like spiky protrusions grew out of its back at a straight angle.

Vivian's eyes widened at the beast in front of them- in fact, they weren't even up to it's toes in height. "...Okay, this is very, very bad..." Flames ignited in her palms as she swallowed her fear.
