Welcome to Winter! Ft. Team Young!
Clouds were hovering above the Team's base. Covering the sunlight, that once represented heat. Hawser was at base, modifying her watergun. She was making sure it had improved speed and accuracy. She was used to this weather, too used to it in fact. In the winter she was used too, it was a very rare to see the sun; or temperatures over 35°F, for that matter. She put on her jacket, gloves, boots, earmuffs, and hat. Then continued her work, ignoring the weather all together.
••••••••^••••••••••
Purple and Sis were at there shop making renovations. When a breeze as cold as ice, brushed through the two. The breeze gave both of them goosebumps; Purple was familiar with the cold, the outcome was predictable. She rushed to put on her jacket and gloves; she motioned Sis to do the same. Unfortunately, Sis wasn't familiar with this, at all. She doesn't have much to protect herself from the cold with, except a hoodie that she had kept with her. Sis was shivering, she was trying to maintain her heat. Purple looked at Sis, seeing how Sis was freezing, she gave Sis the hat she hadn't used.
"Thanks."
"No problem. Hey, let's get back to the base before any blizzard comes."
"Already ahead of you." Sis walked quickly to the base
Purple walked quickly to catch up with her.
"Sis, do you think everyone else is back at the base?"
"Who knows. They might not even know what's happening. Where is everyone else, now that I think about it?"
"Hawser is already at the base, she was working on improving and modifying her squirtgun. I think Tsu and Dark were off entertaining themselves around spawn. And from what I know, Tom is somewhere around our base, playing with his newly enchanted bow. He's probably trolling Haws." Sis chuckled
"I see. I think they'll make it back before this-" Purple was interrupted by the snowflakes that fell on her
Sis had never seen snow before, to her this was a magical experience. She was standing for a moment just looking up at the sky, admiring it.
Sis' admiration was interrupted by another icy breeze and clumps of cold snow falling upon the two. Purple ran for the base, grabbing Sis' hand, as the temperature drops, one degree at a time.
"What was that for?!" Sis demanded for an answer while still being dragged by Purple
"You only know so much about snow Sis. When we get to the base, me and Haws will 'educate' you on the topic of snow." Purple mumbled, while shivering at the cold. Sis was still enjoying the snowfall, despite Purple's 'threat'.
•••••••••^••••••••••
Tsu and Dark were at spawn, looking for possible Mindcrackers who were as bored as they were, when clouds came rolling in covering the sun within seconds.
"Do you have any jacket at all, Tsu?"
Tsu shook her head slowly in gesture for 'No'. Dark and Tsu were recently faced with this weather, they knew what to do. But, they weren't very professionalized on the topic of 'Winter Weather', they didn't really know what to expect.
"I think we should go. Like, right now. I mean, if it is anything like the last time, it's not going to be pretty..." Tsu stated urgently
"But base is so faaaaar, why can't we just take shelter at a nearby Mindcracker's base, won't that be more convenient?" Dark whined
"The rest of the team will worry about us, Dark!" Tsu exclaimed, hoping that Dark would agree sooner, seeing that flakes are falling from the sky, and the puddles are freezing.
Dark turned her head in the direction of the base. "But it's so faaaar...", she mumbled.
"Dark!" Tsu yelled, loud enough for anyone nearby to hear."There is going to be ice all over the place! Remember what happened, y'know, the 'incident' with you and ice..?!"
Dark ignored the statement and walked for the direction of the base. Tsu grinned, and trailed behind her. The temperatures were sinking, fast. The quicker the temperature dropped, the quicker Tsu and Dark walked.
•••••••••••••^••••••••
Tom was firing his at the stray animals, that were nearby the base. He had a flame bow, so it was easier to determine weather or not he had hit his target.
He shot an arrow at the direction of Hawser. The flamed arrow landed only mere inches away from her. Hawser was startled by the sudden flame in her sight; she is used to cold weather, heat was starting to feel weird to her.
"Can't take a little heat?" Tom yelled in the direction of Hawser, while she glared back.
When out of no where, the warmth of the sun he was used to, vanished. It was replaced with very grey clouds and cold wind; the sun wasn't peaking through at all, as if the moon had replaced the sun.
The animals that he spared were fine, for they had woolen coats or thick fur for protection. Tom, however, didn't have any sort of protection from the cold.
"Uh-oh." He mumbled, while partially shivering. He walked back towards the base, as quickly as he could, trying to not seem like the cold was bothering him.
When he came close to the base, he saw Hawser in a light jacket and other winter gear, she wasn't fazed by the cold at all. She looked up from her gun, and saw right through Tom's 'fearless' face, he was cold. Freezing.
"Can't handle the cold?" Hawser said while looking back at her gun and continuing to improve it.
"Shuddup!" Tom replied sounding very annoyed. Hawser chuckled out loud, and watched him trudge towards the entrance of the base, seeking warmth and shelter. After all, from where he was to where the base is, it was quite a distance, about 30-50 blocks.
----
Hawser heard footsteps coming from two directions. There was much fog in the area, and the snow was falling quickly. She took out her watergun, and was switching her aim to whatever direction the sound was closer.
Before she could pull the trigger, she saw 4 familiar faces, all of them glad that they were back.
"Welcome back. How was the snow going for you people?" Hawser asked chuckling; no one answered her question, they all dashed inside. Hawser took a moment to look over her watergun.
"I guess it's good now." Hawser said while putting her watergun back in her bag, and she headed inside
