~-~-~Sofia~-~-~

Feeling her heart race, panic flooded her body as she watched the boys roll down the mountain side and into the frozen lake. At that moment she was frozen to the spot unable to move, her mind felt like it was moving faster than any flying horse but yet not a single thought passed through her mind. Hearing noises from a distance get closer, she couldn't understand a single word that they were saying. Saying she was in shock would be an understatement. Feeling someone shake her with both hands on her shoulder it snapped her out of whatever place she ended up.

"Sofia! Sofia! What Happened?"

It was her father that came into focus and tears started rolling down her face as realization hit her that the boys were in great danger,

"There under the lake,"

Her voice came out but in a whisper form, they couldn't hear her.

"What did you say?"

Feeling the adrenaline flood through her she pushed passed her father this time screaming while running down the mountain side.

"THERE IN THE LAKE!"

Everyone was able to understand her that time, both kings and James fallowed after her down the mountain. Miranda and Amber ran back inside to get help, getting to the bottom Sofia had pointed to where the boys broke through the ice, it had already frozen over by the time they got there. The temperature was dropping by the second and snow had begun to fall.

"James, take your sister inside and make sure Cedric comes as quick as he can to help."

James started to usher Sofia away when she stopped dead in her tracks. Knowing that by the time Cedric would get here it would be too late for the boys if it hadn't already. The adrenaline was still rushing through her and she lifted up the skirt of her dress to pull out the wand she always kept with her. Taking a deep breath she knew she still had a lot to learn but she desperately wanted to try her best. Waving her wand out in front of her, saying a spell that Cedric had taught her a while back, a bright light shown from her wand before detaching and hovering a foot in front of her. Moving closer to the lake she closed her eyes to have more focus before lifting it higher into the air having it grow. Warmth filled the area as the snow and ice began to melt. Having a hard time holding onto her spell she felt a hand on her shoulder.

"That is enough my young apprentice, I will make sure they are both okay so you can do with as you please to them later."

Cedric had arrived quickly taking over melting the ice and raising the boys out of the water, Sofia wouldn't let up of her spell until the boys were safely out of the water. Watching as Cedric lays them on the ground he took his wand helping rid their bodies of any water that may have gotten in there lungs. As soon as he finished pulling the water out from both boys they started cough. Their eyes shot open as they looked around, Sofia was so thrilled that they was okay and exhausted with the amount of magical energy she just used as soon as her spell diminished she had fainted. Cedric had been the one to catch her still being by her side. Looking and feeling awkward towards the group his eyes pleaded with them to help him. Rolland was the one to come over and assist taking his daughter in his arms to carry her back into the Castle.

^vHugo^v

The last thing Hugo remembered was crashing into the icy waters and swimming up to the top but finding that the ice had already formed back over. Axel was soon by his side as they started to hit at the ice to break free. Between the freezing temperature and lack of air it wasn't long before his eyesight darkened and he was lost into the world of unconsciousness. Not knowing how long it was before they were rescued his first sight when he opened his eyes was a bright light and warmth then seeing Sofia tear said face and the brightest smile ever. Thinking that this was all a dream it soon felt like a nightmare when he saw the light vanish and Sofia falling over into the Royal sorcerer of Enchancia. Rolland had taken her into his arms and started retreating to the castle, he started to get up but felt pain in his limbs.

"Don't rush to get up, even though you were only in the water for short amount of time the freezing temperature have harmed your bodies. I need to take you up to my tower so I can fix you up before any of this damage is permanent."

Flicking his wand both boys hovered into the air, they both panicked for a second before relaxing.

"A little warning next time would be appreciated."

Hugo glared at Cedric; Cedric rolled his eyes and looked at them both.

"I truly hope there won't ever be a next time, I don't like watching my young apprentice hurt herself by overdoing her magical ability. There is still much she needs to learn before she can fully control her powers without it hurting her."

Hugo felt a pain grow inside his chest, knowing if he could just control himself better and not let Axel's immature tactics get to him this much this all could have been avoided. Getting up into the tower the boys were set down into seats.

"Pardon that you will not receive any Royal treatment here in my tower, you will have to make do with my stools I have."

Cedric lowered each boy onto a stool before quickly going over to drawers trying to find what he needed,

"Here is it, now this will sting so just bear with it."

Bringing over a medium size container filled with a fine white powder he started to generously cover the boys in it. Hugo sat feeling nothing as he looked at the powder that was starting to cover him, he was about to say something before he felt his skin start to tingle soon it changed to a burning sensation like his skin was going to melt off.

"What the bloody hell?! What is this stuff?!"

Cedric couldn't resist but to chuckle,

"This powder is to help make sure you don't lose any finger or toes to frostbite, it's made from ground rare white fire salts and tears of a green dragon. It takes a long time to grind them together into the fine powder you see so be thankful that you will live to be normal again."

The boys looked at each other knowing the other felt like they were on fire as well; Axel was the one to speck next.

"How long does this stuff have to remain on?"

Cedric made it look like he had to think for a second before walking over to a book flipping through the pages taking his sweet time.

"Are you going to answer my brother or what?"

Hugo wished to know as bad as Axel,

"Oh the powder, you could have washed it off 10 minutes ago."

Cedric gave an evil smirk towards the boy before they got up to bolt out of the room to the closet shower hearing his voice echo down the tower.

"Don't hurt my apprentice again or worse will come your way."

Both boys felt a shiver up there spin having a feeling that he was telling the truth. They parted ways and headed to their temporary chambers in the Castle. Hugo ripped his clothes off faster than he thought was humanly possible before turning on the water, not caring that it was still freezing cold water he wanted the damn powder off of him before he went insane. After he washed his body for the fifth time his skinned tingled still but there were no longer the flames that felt like it was covering him. Exiting the shower he dressed in his night attire before lying down on the bed.
