 Ellen Galietsu, Senior Martial Artist Ellen let out a shriek as the ice hit her again, her skin was stinging from the sub zero ice, sliding a few feet across the ice Ellen looked dead for a split second, but she strained to lift her head, her lips were turned a tinge purple frozen from the icy cold, Ellen weakily brought her evoker to her head still lying on her side,
"Help us... Hososhii...Tamashii."
Her persona materialized above Ellen and brought her and allies some comforting warmth, it then casted a media on everyone before the queen almost finished them off with another spell. But she...the queen paused, and one of the statues caught Ellen's eye, the statue gained color?! Ellen observed the statue carefully and realized it was a happy boy and girl, and something clicked in Ellen's head, it was a vague idea, and too faded to come together, but the statues were a key...that's all Ellen knew. Ellen got up from the icy floor suddenly, and spoke, louder than she meant to the queen,
"Your highness, what do these statues represent? Are all of these statues victim to your unchilvarous forgiveness?" questioned Ellen in a bold, demanding voice... too bad that her guess was bound to be wrong.

Mataki Hito
Student Council President
"Stop losing focus." Mataki asserted, the others once again dancing and questioning, focusing on the statues or ridiculous internet memes and not on the person trying to kill them. "Ms. Ellen, here." Mataki said, moving in the direction of the fellow Senior and offering a hand up in case she were still woozy from the damage. They had to stick together in order to obtain victory, and for that it looked like he'd have to spend an extraordinary amount of energy again, but it was worth it for the chance that they could defeat this cold hearted person. "Salvation!" Mataki's spell was enough to restore even the weakest of their members up to strength, and with the enclosing cold it was definitely needed, especially with the tingle that he could feel through his own skin, a sign that their situation was getting more desperate, though up until this point he seemed to be in the best situation. Perhaps it was because of that mysterious 'Bel-'something or other he'd obtained, but his strength continued to increase, and this was just his type of environment. But it was still unnatural..."We'll need to strike together. Would you cooperate with me?" He asked, hoping to entice the martial artist into a combination. Their target should have been obvious, but he wasn't sure that attacking half-heartedly would get the job done, with the Queen's incredible presence.

Amelia M. Heartilly
The girl was on the ice floor once again, once again hanging by a thread as she stayed on her knees with her teeth chattering and her limbs shivering by the ice cold. It was to the point that her lone scarf wasn't helping, her own body heat being the only source of warmth at this point in the battle. Her energy ran low, she was growing tired, her legs refused to stand at this point but she still wanted to fight! However Cleave wasn't at all helpful, and seeing the effect of the android's Zionga gave her the hint that her own lightening wouldn't be able to work at all. She hated it. So much damage has been done, so much endured and taken, yet not one single scratch made on the Snow Queen before them. The veiled woman still confused the young senior, the very words starting to make less sense that maybe it did make sense? She wasn't sure anymore... She was growing tired. Weak... Even with shaky hands trying to support herself up in hopes to give her legs another push, it wasn't helping.
She'll admit that she was starting to have a curiosity towards the statues, her violet eyes staring at them with s sort of interest, but she shouldn't lose her main goal. What was going on with those things, what the meaning behind them, she did not know. They had to mean something, but with little idea of what, she coudln't keep her attention on them for long. Maybe later.. or soon. Amelia glared over to the Snow Queen, but dammit she just coudln't get up! If she falls now, she'll fail on Minori, on Shikari and Miku! No.
"Ngh..." she felt some warmth and calmness, though... her energy once again replenishing that it was enough for her to breath out a breath before looked up to the familiar Grape-kun. Amelia lowered her head, smirking some before she brought out her blade and saw the card before her. He was going to co-op it looked like... "My thanks." she said to him before stabbing down the card for her Persona to cast Sukukaja on Mataki in hopes that would help him out. Amelia held herself and stood up to nod over to him with trust.. and actual hope if he knows what he's doing.

Koizeki Tanibasaki
The Only thing Worse than to be Alone
Is to be dead...  XXXXX The adolescent boy just stood listening to what his enemy had to say. He wanted to understand her view point but the queen is saying so much obscure things he couldn't really comprehend what was happening. Koizeki noticed that his power charge was done and his demon was in stand by, Looking around to see if anyone else was going to give a swing Koizeki wanted a chance to strike her without really being shoved to the side but this was not all that possible since he really only recently started to fight with a comp. After the snow queens speech her arms stretched out instantly the boy felt weak he felt pain. He was cold, tired and mainly he was emotionally stressed, he wanted to cry but he didn't want to give up. He didn't want to be hopeless or be the one who would walk away on his team when worst comes to shove. Quietly trying to regain strength the boy paid attention to her eyeing her not letting his guard down as the room noticeably gotten colder and... Freezing, almost burning cold. The boy instantly tried to cover himself with his arms with his sword tucked under. This was bad, even if the queen doesn't finish them off they would surely die of hypothermia if this continues too long. Koizeki saw movement. He was sure it was a statue but it moved! He tried to make sense of it but it all seemed a little odd... "Miss Rei... Sounds... like a persons name. Could these statues be a symbol of the queens past?" Koizeki voiced out his thoughts. Feeling a small warmth cover him he saw that the girl Ellen had cast a healing spell on everyone who was an ally. Then he felt a great warmth over him as Mataki casted an even greater spell over everyone. The boy nodded and smiled sweetly to the both members of there team and mouthed out the word "Thank you" as he tried to focus solely on the enemy. Hearing Mataki's idea the boy nodded he was up for anything at this point. "Just say what you think and what we gotta do." he told Mataki on board with whatever plan he has.

 Sapphire Karakuri
Ping! Sapphire's right arm tracked out, morphing into a small cannon as she moved it. Unlike people, the android didn't have to turn her body to 'look' in a given direction... her weapons all came with cameras attached anyway... as did different parts of her body. Which meant that it was a very simple matter for the android to take aim and fire off an Agilao towards the statue. Blow things up before they blew you up was, perhaps, the idea involved here... and seeing something resist her previous attack triggered a system order that demanded an alternate action. No sense continuing something that didn't seem to be working, right?

 ~::Her Frosted Majesty, The Snow Queen::~
"???"
(Queen of the Frozen Tower - Final Boss)No sooner had Sapphire's spell lashed out and struck the glowing shadow did the frozen sculpture shatter like glass, ice shards scattering across the floor of the Throne Room like tiny diamonds speckling the blue-carpeted path towards her throne. And from her position atop the Frozen Throne the Queen, who had been recovering from her moment of weakness, let out a horrible scream...gloved arm reaching out almost desperately towards the encapsulated memory (of whom, remained to be seen) that had been destroyed by her weapon. It took the Queen only a moment to recover from her sudden outburst, but the outburst alone had likely been enough to surprise the ones who still stood against her...they wouldn't have time to think about that, however. It seemed that while they had managed to make an impact upon her, she had recovered her icy demeanor with a vengeance. Twisting her gloved hand that had reached out until the palm was upright, the Snow Queen closed her hand...and in an instant a boy with glasses near the back of the Squad became frozen solid, a statue like Teros and Jo(Shu) before, unable to move or fight back against the will of their heartless monarch. Frowning coldly beneath her white veil, she raised her other arm and unleashed an attack...a God's Hand physical strike...that fell upon Sapphire with a wicked vengeance. Glaring without remorse towards the team that had assembled, she made a point of ignoring even looking at the blue-haired jester with his wild gesticulations and signing...for reasons that probably didn't need to be explained. Her voice when she spoke, however, was unusually empty...her words spoken almost as if to no one in particular, like a monologue...nothing more.
"We enter this world...full of hopes and promise. Full of innocence...capable of...unconditional love," the Queen uttered darkly, though it almost felt as though she were talking to someone else entirely apart from the group. And then, snapping to attention once more, her voice gained an edge, almost of spite...a cold, deep hatred, as deep as the body of an iceberg beneath the sea. "We are...not innocent...but ignorant!," the Queen insisted sharply, as if to reinforce her words to them, "you are all...so very ignorant of His carelessness. Of how little He cares for you...of how cruel He is to create us as we are." Taking a step towards the bottom of the icy stairs of her throne, the ground almost seemed to freeze even deeper with the fall of her snow-white shoe. "It was not He who set Snow Queen upon her throne...but neither did He stop her. Placing innocent lambs out to pasture without any shelter from the wolves...and when we our devoured, our innocence stolen, we are rejected by him without condition.'
'He is nothing more...than an irresponsible shepherd. But I, your Snow Queen...in my eyes all are equally righteous...and equally condemnable." Quote: The statue has shattered!
Toru has been frozen into a statue in the Snow Queen's Blessing! He can no longer move!

Ellen Galietsu, Senior Martial Artist Ellen was about to give an answer to Mataki's question but she was interuppted by Saphire's attack, an attack to the glowing statue, at first Ellen thought this would probaly just provoke the Queen until she heard a scream...a scream from the queen. This disturbed Ellen so much, too much, the problem with Ellen was that she had too much compassion and mercy, and for a second Ellen didn't want to fight the queen. That until she sudenly recovered and froze Toru, "No..." said Ellen with a feeling of despair, she brought her evoker to her head and casted another Marukukaja on everybody,
"BULLSHIT! BULL FRIGGEN s**t! WHAT RELATIONSHIP DO YOU HAVE WITH HIM!? HOW DO YOU KNOW WHETHER OR NOT HE CARES FOR US!? HOW DO YOU KNOW EVERY DAMN FREAKING THING ABOUT HIM!?" Ellen's eyes flared with anger, her anger replaced her fear of the sudden cold, the fear that the queen was able to finish Ellen off without effort. Ellen didn't care who he was, the senior panted when she was done yelling, she was breathing hard and fast in anger, acting like a lady like how her sensei always tells her ddin't matter to Ellen at the moment. Quote: Everybody's defense has been risen!

"So like, he's sort of like a pimp, only when you were all over him he didn't return your feelings...and then when you started eyeing some other dude, figuring you could get his attention or something, he didn't bat an eyelash and so you think he doesn't care about you at all." Zeo said, trying to bring her cryptic talk down to...his...level..."Man, whoever you're talking about is a total jerk! When I make a promise to a babe, I keep it without fail! But on the other hand, you seem to be equally to blame too, trying to pluck another tree's fruit...heh, that was a sexual innuendo..." Zeo didn't really want to take up arms against the girl, but she seemed to be suffering in ways that only his sexy body could cure. After all, touching girls in places that weren't exactly legal was the perfect answer for everything! It's the second highest form of love...below double suicide. Er, he means the saixy tim-oh screw it, he'll iron the details out later. "I'll make you realize you're a woman!" Zeo shouted, probably creeping out everyone in the room as the android sprinted forward, attempting to use the opportunity to attack. The smaller warrior closed in quickly, before finally throwing a closed fist towards the girl intending to put an end to the fight once and for all...which is to say, by quickly opening said hand, and attempting to grope her once the distance between them disappeared at last. If he couldn't beat her in battle, he'd win through pervertedness!

Amelia M. Heartilly
The horrid scream that echoed across the halls of the throne room, it really did take the rich girl off guard to hear such raw pain of loss. Like a prized possession just ripped away from her very hands thanks to Sapphire being the one taking the initiative. But with such a thing done, an action of forcibly taking away such a precious thing, no doubt there will be a form a retaliation. Sure enough, Amelia was soon shaken up by the powerful force and will that the Snow Queen has done to blast Sapphire away from her footing, and to take away one of their allies with one swift movement of the hand. This was actually a little something that frightened Amelia where she stood, her eyes staring with a bit of doubt in her eyes when she has witnessed the display. If it can take that much to just freeze them over, then why is it that she doesn't get it over with? She was only letting time pass little by little, waiting for the right moment to just put them out of their misery? Though, seeing the very misery and the small tantrum that the very queen has let out, Amelia couldn't help but give a soft laugh to her as a cold sweat went down her cheek.
"It hurts, doesn't it..." she said to her as if reveling in such pain. "To lose something precious to you." She hoped that perhaps the Snow Queen was feeling the same thing that she was, when her own precious thing was ripped away from her. To feel that anger and that want of vengeance. She was at risk to get blasted and frozen herself. But, with her hand ready with a bone whistle in hand, blowing into it to have her dear demon comrade to come fourth and unleash a Garula upon the Snow Queen in hopes to support Zeo (as odd as his.. offense may be), and while the Queen's defenses seemed a little down. Violet eyes shifted over to Ellen, noticing the rambles that she started to spew out then frowned to the girl. She'll be truthful, she was doubtful that Ellen knew what she was talking about in the first place.
"...Girl." she started, looking to Ellen but then back to the Snow Queen. "If you have the breath to spew profanities like a pre-teen, I'm sure you have the strength to shut the Queen up." Amelia had her Persona card hovering and ready for use over her palm, that grip on her sword tightening.

Mataki Hito
Student Council President
"Attack now. Watch for any changes to the room, those statues in particular." Mataki said, giving Koizeki an order to follow so that they could focus their skills. Just as had been revealed when Sapphire unleashed her blow, the statues seemed to play a key role in the Queen's power, and there were several more. Since they had not been animated as those before them though, it was unlikely this was a good time to strike though, and her weakness made it best for them to hit the head of the hive itself. "Bufudyne." The ice gathered on the edge of Mataki's fingertip, and the small spark of white quickly accumulated until a stabbing icicle crashed towards the Queen from below, intending to return the favor she'd given to them earlier. He had already broken her defense, so there was a fair chance it would work at least. If not though, they would simply have to focus on other...alternatives. Even he wasn't sure how they would remove this false ruler from her throne, after all. Despite that, Mataki managed to spare a glance towards Amelia, who seemed to be cracking up in the situation after it all. Not everyone could keep a calm, ruling head in these situations, but that was what separated kings and men. Still, everyone here had overcome their own ordeals, and they would have to stay together to win this, not let the stress take their minds over, each one by one. "Amelia, calm down. If you've got something on your mind, then just forget about it and focus on my voice. We have to work together to win. If you lose control of your emotions, whatever it is you've lost, whatever you can't get back...may become lost to you, forever. So focus on the mission." Mataki said, hoping it helped the girl to relax in case hysteria was taking over. The Queen had already done too much to their friends, but the statues were still intact, so there was a possibility that they remained alive inside and could be saved in time. And if that many people had become her victims already, then not a single person could be spared in this fight, or it might spell disaster for all of them, in the end.

The android calmly followed the lead of Mataki, a large cannon of sorts appearing with her right arm and firing off a Bufudyne of her own towards the Ice Queen. If that didn't work, well... probably time to start shooting everything else in the room (except her allies) to see if anything else would have an effect on the demon. The robot, apparently, had no use for further conversation if it didn't seem like the opponent would back down willingly. Besides which, her current Operating Mode had destroying things as its general priority, not just hanging around chatting. That was other Modes...

~::Her Frosted Majesty, The Snow Queen::~
"???"
(Queen of the Frozen Tower - Final Boss)Nothing in the arsenal of the team standing before her had been able to make contact with the Snow Queen yet; whatever it was that stood between them, it had stood like a great wall which kept out all that could bring harm upon she who ruled the Frozen Tower. Yet when Amelia's Garula and the dueling Bufudynes of Sapphire and Mataki passed through and connected with their intended target, snapping the Snow Queen's head back...if only for a moment...they would realize that they had done something very right. And now, perhaps, there was a blueprint by which they could begin to chip away at their foe. The question was, could they finish the duel before the Queen eliminated them in the same way she had eliminated the ones who had already fallen. It was a race against time, and no sooner had Zeo extended his hand within range of the Snow Queen did his arm freeze solid, a ball of ice forming in his stomach that knocked him viciously back towards the feet of one of her many statues...one from which a strange light would become apparent a few moments later. But before even that the Snow Queen raised her left hand, a shine passing once over her as if a warning...then with her other hand fingers snapped, ice encasing Camael unrepentantly alongside Toru in the ranks of the fallen. "What do I know of Him? Everything..." the Queen began darkly, a mixture of pain and anger written plainly on features that they could neither see...but could plainly hear in her usually icy voice, "As much as a woman can know of Him...and I'll tell you, if you so desire. He is the cruelest of the Divine...a hypocrite who judges us for mistakes while keeping from us the very knowledge necessary to avoid making them. He tosses sheep to wolves and scorns them as they are torn to shreds. He is unworthy of our praise...and yet, we seek His forgiveness nonetheless."
...And then, like some sort of mythical theater, the second of the statues leading towards her throne gained color...seeming almost to come alive. A young man and woman, no older than the ones standing before the Snow Queen now, together on a day not so long ago...a warm day...a day full of memories.
It is a beautiful night, stars shining brightly overhead as a woman stands with her back to a large, Japanese-style home. She is tall now, blond...an older version of the young girl they saw before...and she is as lovely as the half-lit moon hanging in the night sky. Small hands clasped together tightly over her chest, there is an uncertain look on her lips as she is suddenly joined by the approach of a handsome young man behind her. He is not unlike the boy from the previous vision, only older now...though his expression is still clear, strong, and as bright and warm as it had been when he was a child. Her eyes trail upward and a faint smile creases her lips...and then strong arms wrap around her waist, pulling her flush against a broad chest. The man, barely 18, leans over her shoulder and kisses her cheek comfortingly. Then, stepping around in front of her, she lowers her eyes to meet his...looking into hers with honesty, passion, and...
"I know you're worried about this...but I'm not. Rei..." the young man took her by the hands and smiled brilliantly, kneeling down before her in a very familiar pose, "it doesn't matter that this is what they wanted...it matters that this is what we want. And I...have never been more certain about anything in my life than the fact that...I love you." Reaching into his pocket, the young man produced a small box and flipped it open, revealing a gorgeous ring on the inside which could only mean one thing... "Wherever you are...that will be my paradise. OUR paradise," the man took the ring from the box as the woman's hand raised to her lips in a mixture of joy and disbelief...all the hesitation within her gone in an instant, "Rei Fuji...will you marry me?"
With that the vision stopped, the Snow Queen's hand again moving to rest on the side of her head as if to nurse some sort of phantom pain. Meanwhile, the statue of the young man and woman together had begun to glow, as if to draw attention to itself apart from the others. Quote: The second statue has begun to glow! An ominous air surrounds the Snow Queen!
Camael has been frozen into a statue in the Snow Queen's Blessing! He can no longer move!

Ellen Galietsu, Senior Martial Artist Ellen exhaled as her hysteria was wearing off,
"I'm...I'm sorry for that." Apologized Ellen to her team mates, her attention suddenly came back to the Queen who began to speak again after the barrage of attacks from her team mates. But her reaction was different, like they have hit a crucial point...
There it was again...the phantom pain and the freezing of people... Ellen's attention snapped to the glowing statue, a remisance of the Queen's beloved memory.
"There!" Shouted Ellen, and without a second thought she suddenly speeded towards the statue and aimed a roundhouse to the statue of the couple.

Amelia M. Heartilly
The girl stopped at her tracks when she was called out on by her purple-haired friend, looking over to him with raging eyes with a sort of pain shown on her. But it wasn't long until realization went over the girl's expression from his very words, a frown starting to form and her blade lowering for but a moment as it sunk in. Lost... forever? If she were to fall because of her unstable temperment, then Minori would fall as well. Amelia lowered her head.The boiling fury started to die down, it was quickly going into her hands control and she would nod to her friend, a reassuring smirk on her face before she looked back to her target. He was right... And as the Snow Queen started to talk and repeat her words all over again, Amelia stared at the phantom of a memory, her feeting stepping just a couple of steps closer with her card still ready in hand. An adrenaline, an anxiousness was forming but she had to keep herself in control.
Waiting for that signal...
The memory before her, as intriguing as a perfect love story could be, it wasn't what she should pay attention to. Admittedly, the girl tilted her head to such a memory with a curiosity as if to ask herself that these things, these moments.. actually existed? The works of Love unfolding...
And with a perk of her head to see the very statues of a past's memory come alive and glow, no sooner did her palm close itself into the card to smash it into shards. "Zionga!" She ordered Kadlu, a fury of a strong lightening strike to destroy the very statue that stood. The electricity did it's duty, Amelia shifting her gaze over towards the demon not too far from her. "Mataki!" She called out to him, a signal that the Queen should now be vulnurable. But, without a doubt Mataki already had the same in his own mind.

Mataki Hito
Student Council President
"Strike while the iron's hot." Mataki emphasized to those left, letting them cast their attacks towards the queen's puppets as they continued to focus their efforts on defeating her. He, however, knew that he was almost a useless sacrifice now at this point, drained of magic power as he was. And no sooner had Amelia used a Zionga towards the petrified ice pieces, than a hand shot out from behind, arms wrapping around Ellen and catching her before her attack could be completed, holding her close to him after using incredible speed to catch up to the energetic girl. "You look magnificent this evening." He mumbled, though any thoughts that he might be a pervert were only empowered as teeth suddenly suckled against skin...and pierced it, his fangs helping him to tear the life from the girl in seconds flat. After only a moment his arm snapped to the side from the tight embrace, casting her aside whether to avoid a desperate counter or to free his hands to cast spells once more, all this meant to be done much more quickly than Amelia's eyes could follow. She had to see if her attack connected of course, and that was the window he had been hoping for, shouting suddenly as she looked to see if he had attacked as if Ellen had been caught off guard by the Snow Queen. "No, look out! I'll make you pay for hurting us!" Mataki scolded dominently towards the Queen, his hand lashing out as a new Aquary Tide gathered and flew towards the Queen, intent on damaging her as best he could with the power he'd gained. He'd say a prayer for the Martial Artist when he could, but first they had to focus on the present, and stop the witch from bringing them all back to the beginning...to a time of bliss, and non-existence.
