Chapter 1: Chaos and Ionians

"LUX! ARE YOU THERE? LUX? LUX!" Someone yelled, pounding on her door.

Lux groaned and rolled over, refusing to get up. Not that she had a choice.

"LUUUX!" Sejuani screeched and bowled her door down. The blonde mage sat up and blinked multiple times. "Wha… Sejuani?"

The Winters Wrath sighed in relief. "You're here! Good. Now get up and meet in the hall!"

Lux groaned and fell back down onto her bed. "5 more minutes…"

Sejuani sighed. "Garen's back."

She bolted upright. "What? WHERE?" Lux jumped out of bed and quickly donned her armour. Within 30 seconds, she stood facing Sejuani in her broken doorway. "Take me to him!" She demanded. The Winters Wrath laughed. "Your brothers not here. Now come."
Lux stared after Sejuani's retreating figure down the hall. Tricked again. She thought.

Lux exited her hallway to be greeted by nods from Leona, Kayle, Akali, Shen, and Ryze, each standing against the wall, expressions ranging from incredibly bored to incredibly pissed. There was nobody else coming in from the other 2 dorm halls.

"What's going on?" Lux asked Leona, who was standing nearest to her. She shrugged. "I don't know. All I know is that Sejuani charged down my door, screaming like a lunatic. I told her to calm down, but then she just left. And charged down your door."

Sejuani entered the small little circular room with four branching halls. "Alright. I've checked the West Wing and the East Wing. Someone else pull their weight around here." She said. Kayle snorted. "If we knew what the fuck you're doing, maybe we would help!" The angel exclaimed indignantly. Sejuani stalked up to her. "Listen here, angel." She spat. "Everybody else has left for Snowdown, except you lot. I've been instructed to find out who stayed and who left. Now somebody," She said, turning to the rest of the champions. "Better check the Noxian Wing and see who stayed." The North Wing, or better known as the Noxian Wing, was where all the Noxians had their rooms. Everybody else was mixed up, but they had wanted to stay together.

Obviously, nobody volunteered to go.

"Alright then, pansies. How about you, dear Lux."

Lux gaped. "Me? But… But..."

"NO BUTS! GET YOUR BUTT DOWN THERE NOW!" Sejuani roared, and Lux scurried down the hallway. "Everybody else, go get some breakfast."

As the remaining 4 champions followed the Freljordian into the mess hall, Leona stopped. "Hey… Sejuani? Come look at this."

There was a message, taped to the wall, which everybody else had missed.

To the champions currently reading this letter,

It is Snowdown Break, therefore, any champion is allowed out to visit family, friends, or adventure someplace, but you are also allowed to return as you wish. If you choose to leave, please return by the end of two weeks time. There are some basic ground rules to follow if you choose to stay:

Keep the Ionians out of the kitchen, especially the fridge

Do not enter the Fields of Justice

Do not enter the Summoners building

Keep the minions in the dungeons

DO NOT ENTER THE NORTH WING (Unless you room there)

Leona looked up at Sejuani. "Lux..."

Lux wandered down the dimly lit hallway for a bit before she got slammed into by a force.

"Oomph!" She sprawled out on the floor.

"Oops! So sorry Lux! Didn't see you there!" A happy voice chirped. Lux looked up into Teemo's eyes and grimaced. "You're a lot tougher than you look… Haha…"

Teemo looked concerned and extended a small furry paw to her. "Here, Lady of Luminosity."

Lux accepted the hand and stood up, towering over the yordle. "What are you doing in the North Wing, Teemo?" She inquired. The Swift Scout looked up at her. "The Noxians may all room here, but so do the yordles. The Noxian rooms are the furthest down the hall. Are you looking for something?"

The mage sighed. "Yeah. I'm supposed to check to see if there are any more people still left here in the North Wing."

Teemo grinned. "I will accompany you then!"

They walked down the hallway until they reached the end, lit by a single torch. They turned around, peeping through the cracks and listening for people on the other side.

"I hope we don't run into Ka-" Teemo was interrupted when the door they were standing in front of slammed open and a pair of angry green eyes bore into theirs. "-tarina." He squeaked.

"RUN!" Lux yelled and they sprinted down the corridor, back into the safety of the circular room.

Meanwhile, down the hallway...

Katarina looked after the two curiously. She was just on her way to get breakfast…

Reaching for her daggers, she wondered what the light mage had been doing in her hallway… Then decided that she didn't care.

The mess hall

"So then I was like: no, I'm not your sun, get it?" Leona laughed uncontrollably while Shen and Akali eyed the kitchen entrance. Akali forced a smile. "Hahahaha…"

"HELP! SOMEBODY HELP!" Lux screamed as she sprinted into the room. Everybody looked up. Sejuani ran behind Lux, having been in the hallway looking for her. She panted for breath and took a seat in the nearest chair. Lux looked behind her, panicked.

Ryze looked up from his scrolls and omelette. "Lux? What happened?"

The mage panted for breath. It had been a hard sprint, and the dorms weren't exactly close.

Teemo spoke up. "It appears that we are not the only ones here." He said, jerking his small head back in the direction he had come in. "Now if you'll excuse me, I will just grab a salad and be heading back home to Bandle City for Snowdown."

Everybody watched the yordle as he selected a leafy salad and scurried out of the room. Lux sat down next to Sejuani.

"So… Who else is here?" Sejuani asked. Lux opened her mouth to speak, but her gaze snatched on something… Or someone over Sejuani's shoulder.

"What the fuck were you doing outside my room, Blondie?" The assassin snapped, hands on her hips. Everybody else turned to watch the encounter, and Akali took the opportunity to sneak into the kitchen.

"Well?" Katarina hissed. Lux gathered her courage and stood up to face the Sinister Blade. "Sejuani asked me to check who was left…" She stated coolly. Katarina turned her gaze to Sejuani, who in turn looked at Lux. "Don't push the blame onto me!" She hissed. Katarina snorted. "Don't care." She muttered, heading towards the buffet, which magically restocked food.

At that moment, Caitlyn rushed into the room, waving a piece of paper. "Hey guys! Guess wha-!" The over-excited sheriff tripped over a chair and tumbled into Katarina, who knocked over a pile of plates, which broke the glass door into the kitchen. Akali blinked at the door and quickly scuttled out of sight of the door… Which landed her next to the refrigerator.

"WATCH IT, BITCH!" Katarina spat angrily, launching a dagger at Caitlyn. Kayle flew into the way of the projectile, which buried itself in her right arm, shearing through her golden armour like nothing.

Katarina barked a short laugh at the angel, who had fallen on top of the sheriff, before taking an unbroken plate and loading it with food and strutting out. Leona blocked the next 5 daggers thrown their way with her shield.

The Radiant Dawn turned to Lux. "Seriously? The other person is Katarina? Fuck. Help me get Kayle to Soraka, will you?"

Ryze looked up. "Hmm? Did I miss something?"

Caitlyn gasped. "Can somebody get her off me? Please?" She wheezed as the air was crushed out of her lungs from Kayle's heavy armour.

The Infirmary

"I will be with you shortly, please fill out this checklist while you are waiting." Leona read from the sign taped onto Soraka's door. She sighed. "Guess we have to wait."

Kayle looked up. "Nonsense! I will be fine- whoa, whoa!" She slurred, trying to stand up. Caitlyn grimaced as the Judicator fell back onto the bench.

Leona sighed again. "Stupid bitch. Did she have to poison her daggers?!"

Lux picked up the checklist and a pen. "Might as well fill this out."

1. Please state the cause of injury:

a) Summoners Rift

b) Tripping down the stairs

c) Walking into the Summoners building

d) Angry Noxian

e) Other _

Lux checked the 'angry Noxian' box off and looked at the next question on the list.

2. Please state reason for cause of injury:

a) Personal curiosity

b)Accidental

c) Fight

d) If you checked off 'Angry Noxian' you do not have to do the rest of the checklist

"Umm… I'm done, Leona." Lux said, handing the warrior the paper. The Radiant Dawn glanced over the paper and nodded.

Just then, the door opened. "I trust you've filled out the checklist?" Soraka asked, plucking the paper from the Radiant Dawn. She glanced it over and pursed her lips, shaking her head. "Angry Noxian, huh? Alright. Your friend will be alright in an hour."

Lux just stared. "An hour? That long for a cut on her arm?"

"Noxians poison their weapons. And this looks like the work of Katarina, so it may be 2 hours, actually…" Soraka mused. "Help her inside and lay her on a bed. As for this one," She said, turning to Caitlyn, "I assume you were caught in the crossfire?"

Caitlyn shook her head. "I was the target."

Back in the mess hall

"ATTENTION! I HAVE AN ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE." Sejuani boomed. Shen looked up. "It's only me, Ryze an- wait… Where's Akali?" He stood up, looking around the room as if expecting the Fist of Shadow to suddenly leap out from behind the painting of a poro that hung on a wall.

Sejuani smacked her head. "Shit! Shen check the kitchen… No wait on second thought, don't go near the kitchens! Ryze, check the kitchen!"

Ryze looked up and shrugged. "Why?"

Sejuani seethed. "I was supposed to keep you Ionians away from the fridge!"

The Rogue Mage stood up and left the room. "Do it yourself."

A blond explorer walked in, looking around. "Daaaaamn! Where'd everybody go?"

Sejuani ignored him and stalked into the kitchen, Shen and Ezreal following. Ezreal gasped. "AKALI?! IS THAT MY DOUBLE CHOCOLATE FUDGE AND MINT CHIP ICE CREAM?!"

Akali looked up from her seat on the floor, her face smeared with ice cream and her spoons halfway to bringing another scoop into her mouth. She looked at the label on the ice cream container that said, 'Ezreal's double chocolate fudge and mint chip ice cream, DO NOT TOUCH.'

She gulped. "No…"

Ezreal turned red. "I can SEE IT!"

Akali stared as her charged at her. Panicking, she flung her spoons at him and yelled, "AS BALANCE DICTATES!" Before vanishing in a shroud of mist.

Sejuani roared. "I HATE BEING IN CHARGE! YOU IONIANS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE IN HERE! IF I SEE ANOTHER ONE OF YOU HERE, KATARINA WILL LOOK TAME NEXT TO WHAT I WILL DO!"

Ezreal, having managed to dodge the spoons, frowned. "Katarina…? Who else is here?"

Shen answered. "Leona, Caitlyn, Kayle, Akali, Ryze, Sejuani, Soraka, me, and Lux. As far as we know. Leona, Kayle, Caitlyn, and Lux are at the infirmary. Caitlyn tripped and knocked over Katarina, and Kayle took a dagger to the arm."

Ezreal frowned. "I'm surprised there wasn't more damage."
"Leona managed to block the other daggers…"

"Oh."

Sejuani turned to Shen. "GET OUT!"
