North watched the second failed power use, frustrated. What else, what else? She heard Venus shout to Aries, just as the first hunter tripped on his foot-sticks and fell, sinking into the snow. North heard Winter and Hawthorne laugh.
Comet shot fire at a tree and a branch fell in the path of the remaining hunter, as Aries used her darkness to surround him so he couldn’t see it. He tripped on it but kept moving. Apparently, his shiny blue fur was fireproof.
(foot-sticks = snow shoes, shiny blue fur= snow pants and coat)
