"He's probably just tired, let him get at least a few minutes rest," Rin said as she got up from the sofa and left for the dining hall. Anise got up a few seconds later and followed her, in the dining hall they found the lodge staff setting up various tables, some long, some short, a few round tables were also thrown in.
"Anise," Rin said and turned to her twin sister, "perhaps you should go and check in with the nurse," she said.
Anise nodded. "I guess so," she said and ran off to do just that. For RIn she walked over to a table set up near the window and looked out, it was a white blanket outside, she could barely see past the window.

Near the dorm portion of the lodge, a back door opened so silently that a security guard nearby didn't hear it before his neck was promptly snapped, his body was then pulled out into the cold and tossed down the side of the cliff, vanishing into the whiteness in just a few feet. "Two man teams, keep watch of the kids until you locate whom we are active, stay cloaked though.. we don't want to alert them to our presence," a man said just as his figure vanished, leaving behind a very faint shimmer.
The other three in the group nodded and also disappeared. For one of them, however, he wondered. Is killing a child really worth all this? he thought as he made his way up a flight of stairs, as he did so a group of children who he assumed were on the field trip walked by him within a foot, they never noticed the slight 'waver' in the air. Whew... close one... he thought as he positioned himself within a dark portion of the hallway. His partner then went up to the next floor, also positioning himself in a dark area, even with cloaked, with it being dark they couldn't be seen either way. Now for the waiting game, grumbled the soldier.
