Legends say that on Mt. Frappe, if a woman set foot in the area a snowstorm would ensue.Crunching noises of the snow underneath filled the air around May as she traveled up the Mountain. Wind kicking up and the gentle spray of snowflakes speeding against the wind. May shivered, and her natural arm grasped at her prosthetic, as her prosthetic leg buckled from the nerves in may telling it to. She curled up a bit. Feeling pain wrack up and down her self. "Shit... shit come on, pass... pass...!" Eventually the pain retreated, and she got up. She began to continue up the path, trying to traverse to the peak without flight. Her stumps shot cold pinging pains in her body. in the cold and slowly chilling weather the conduction from the skin to metal creates a big problem for May. Her stumps unlike the rest of her body is not prepared to handle the cold, unfortunately she doesn't have much of a choice here. This is her training. She catches her breath and slowly brings her aura to life. warming her body slightly as she kept going. This kept her going, though eventually she had to stop. The weather was getting colder. She needed shelter as the snowflakes began mildly pelting her. she surveyed the area and found a small cave on the side. Probably dug in for a similar purpose. She ducked inside and looked around. A few animal skeletons, and dried wood, huh... that actually works. She uses her Ki to ignite the wood, and extends her prosthetics close to the fire to keep thier temperature regular as her body absorbed the warmth of the fire. A small smile forms on her face as she sighs "Would appreciate it if I could have Vanessa here, but I suppose this is why i'm out here. Can't rely on her all the time."

Srimpee shivered as she and her brother ascended higher and higher into the air, rubbing her biceps in an attempt to warm them while she glared at Ryce. "You mind explaining to me why we're flying all the way up here? It's freezing!" she asked, baring her teeth angrily. Ryce looked over his shoulder at her for a moment, grinning smugly before turning around fully to face her. The youngest Reville didn't feel all that cold at all, given the blue and red jacket he was wearing providing some pretty decent warmth for himself. Especially compared to the t-shirt and shorts combo she decided to wear. Suitable clothing for their island home, but not at all cold weather gear.
"It's not my fault you decided to dress like you were going to stretch out and tan!" Ryce replied with a laugh, eliciting an angry growl from his sister. He could see her canines beginning to lengthen along with her frustration. "It's some high altitude training, sis! Every good fighter needs to do it!" Srimpee puffed her cheeks out in annoyance, speeding up slightly to get eye level with her younger brother and placing her hands on her hips.
"What is with you guys and wanting to be warriors all the time?! Can't you and Almon just be regular teens for two minutes?" she replied. "I get that you two want to live up to our family's legacies, but you can chill for a bit! Going 100% all the time is only going to make you hurt yourself!"
Ryce's smile fell as he shrank back from Srimpee's scolding. His tail curled around his leg shamefully. "S-sorry...w-we can go back home if you want..." Ryce said, his more passive and submissive side coming out in the face of criticism. A moment of silence passed between them before Srimpee's glare fell and she sighed.
"We can train for a bit up there, but then we're getting some hot chocolate and relaxing on the beach," she said, smiling slightly while ruffling her younger, but much taller brother's hair. It prompted a smile from the younger Reville before a rising energy source pinged on his senses up above him. Ryce looked upwards, with Srimpee's gaze soon following. "And I guess we'll see who's up there."
The pair ascended up the rest of the way, landing on the peak of the mountain. The fire and, by extension, the girl sitting next to it weren't hard to spot. Ryce was quick to wave to her, a bright smile on his face. "Heya! Hope we're not invading on your privacy or anything!"

May didn't hear thier commotion. She was all too focused on the fire that was providing her warmth, being careful not to overheat her prosthetics so they didn't sear her flesh. Thankfully soon she felt warm enough to stand up and stretch, May stood up straight before slowly lowering herself down. Her prosthetic leg slipping behind her, and her natural leg slipping in front as she began to do forward splits. She then leaned forward and touched her finger tips to the toe of her shoe the best she could. She focused inward, and let her senses run wild. Which alerted her albeit too late to the two energy signatures just inside the cave. She snapped her eyes open and looked up. Which was honestly a poor decision because Ryce and Srimpee would be met with the sight of one regular brown iris, and the other revealing a black glass eye. Probably not the sanest thing but when she had to decide on getting a glass eye, she decided on black trying not to make it look like she had a normal eye. She didn't want to pretend that her circumstances were normal.
May slid her legs to her side, showing the pair the other prosthetic than her arm and rose to her feet. "Oh, hey. No you're not interrupting me. Training is just being up here. Who are you two?" She asks, training her good eye between the both of them. May wasn't a fool. She could sense that they were as strong, or just a bit stronger than May. If they were friendly, May could make a very small effort to socialize before telling them to buzz off. Though the voice of Vanessa rang in her ears with her warning that 'May you need to actually socialize with people you misanthropic moron, ya can't just rely on me being here to roast you 24/7 whenever you're lonely!'
May amended her introduction by looking down and to the side to the fire, pinching the bridge of her nose and then adding "I'm May, May Alborn. Sorry if I seemed cold." and looking back to the duo

Peno shivered and shook on this frozen mountain. She was completely lost. All she wanted was to grab a rare herb to study and look at, to see if she could use it to help process a new thing to help her disease but noooooo, right when she was about to head and grab the stupid plant, a giant monster came out of nowhere and chased the human girl to where she was, which made her really upset. She couldn’t even lit up a cigarette now, stupid wind. “I just wanna go hommmeeeee!” she cried, the wind beginning to pick up, whipping her lab coat up and blowing it around. The nearly 8’ tall human’s eyes fluttered as she shook. She wouldn’t last much longer as she stumbled, nearly falling. She couldn’t die here… No. She had so much left to do! She had a saviour of a cave, and stumbled her way over into the cave, shivering as she quickly and klutzy pulled out a cigarette and lit it with the little ki she had as she took a big whiff of it and blew out a cloud of smoke. “F-fuckk that’s good~...” she said, with a happy smile as she continued to inhale more and blow out clouds of it. Looking, she noticed the woman and others there. “O-oh, am I invading your guy's privacy!?” she said, crouched over so she wasn’t hitting her head on the ceiling, so she wouldn’t seem as tall as normal. “U-um, I’m not too strong so don’t be intimidated by size,” she said, bowing a little, taking another puff. “Apo-apologies I need to do this… Addicting stuff,” she muttered, rubbing the back of her head. “I’m Peno by the way, and you all are…?”

Ryce smiled brightly in spite of the girl's brusque and blunt introduction of herself, waving his hand dismissively. "Don't worry about it! We did kind of drop on you unannounced, which was kind of rude us to do," he said, before a sly smile crossed his face at a potential pun. "It only makes sense to me, really. After all, you do look pretty cold already." In response, Srimpee gave an exasperated sigh before slapping the back of her younger brother's head.
"Can you at least try to keep you stupid jokes under control? We've only just met her," Srimpee scolded as Ryce rubbed the back of his head and made an exaggerated pout.
"Oh, come on! I was just breaking the ice," Ryce continued, snickering again while Srimpee glared daggers and raised her hand threateningly. The youngest Reville was quick to jump away and raise his hands defensively. "Alright! Alright! No need to get your tail in a twist! I'll stop!" Ryce scowled at his sister. She looked about ready to go off on him again for a moment before a fourth person joined their little trio. Both Ryce and Srimpee turned to look at the newcomer as she puffed away on a cigarette. Srimpee shrugged at both her explanation for her size and apology for smoking. Both of the Revilles shrugged their shoulders in reply.
"Don't worry about it. The fire in here is creating some smoke, anyhow," Srimpee said, smiling at Peno before her mouth dropped open in realization. "Oh! I just realized we haven't introduced ourselves! My name is Srimpee Reville. Nice to meet you both."
"And I'm Ryce!" he chipped in, smiling brightly.

May's attention snapped to the newcomer and she sighed. and the peanut gallery grows. She watches Peno take a drag of the cigarette, and she runs her prosthetic along her throat. She wanted to take a hit of that for ol' times sake, but remembered it wouldn't be the smartest idea she would have ever had especially with her physical conditioning now. "Peno, Srimpee, Ryce." She addressed them, sitting back down and looking back to the fire. "Fucking blizzard." She threw out.
She looked to Ryce and questioned "I'm pretty surprised. Here's Goliath lady here" She motions to Peno "and she's got the Power of a normal person like I was expecting with you two, but it's reversed. you're a lot stronger, even a bit stronger than me i'd guess. You two train don't you?" She asked, not particularly thinking all the facts through, but it was the most likely culprit of thier bumped power. Well if they're going to inturrupt me, I might as well see if either of them fight. Then I can get something out of this waste of time with this stupid snowstorm.

Peno shook, slowly warming up as she took deep smoke, blowing it out. “Aye, t-that’s me… And that is a blizzard out there. Hehehe,” she chuckled, laughing at the puns. The woman with prosthetic parts seemed very… Unhappy, and Peno could see why. The cold snowstorm and her psychical abilities would make it hard to journey up here, which made her question why she made her way up here.
“So uh, why did you guys come up the mountain? Training of some sort? Sleet did that a lot too, very strange one, could you guys explain that to me? The concept of training in a horrible place like this, it sounds bloody awful!” she said, sighing in frustration, unable to think of a reason.
“I’m up here cause I’m attempting to find a rare plant that could help my condition.”

Ryce nodded enthusiastically at May's question. "Yep! Us two and our brother are training really hard to live up to our family's legacy! he said excitedly, smiling brightly. "While we might not seem like much on the surface, you'd be surprised just what all three of us can do! Though, our big brother is more of a lone wolf right now. He needs a bit of help warming up to people." Another temperature pun and another annoyed sigh from Srimpee while he snickered. After his giddiness at his own joke wore off for himself, he looked over at Peno and shrugged.
"Training is supposed to be hard and you'll only get stronger if you push yourself past your limits," Ryce explained, scratching the side of his head as he thought. He wasn't really sure how to properly explain it, but he knew well enough that training in different places that tested him in different ways yielded good results for he and his siblings getting stronger. "For example, here on Mt. Frappe, the air is thinner this high up, as well as the cold and snow limiting your movements and stuff. If that makes any sense." He said with a shrug before smiling sheepishly.
"What plant are you looking for?" Srimpee asked. "We could help you find it."

May looked to the two and nodded, understanding that a lot of fighters get stronger due to the expectations of them. Not May's cup of tea. Personally following expectations from others is a short way to become a puppet- but who knows the circumstances they have. "Alright. Well. If we're trapped up here..." She stood up. Stretching her leg, and rolling her shoulder. Her prosthetics clicking in some locations as she makes some subtle but simple motions to set them.
However her attention was turned to Peno. To be quite frank- May was practically ignoring Peno. She didn't find much entertainment in people like her, even if she is cute. She didn't seem to get the reason why May or Ryce and Srimpee would be out here, and honestly May had no intention to be a teacher when there was no growth that she could see in it for her.
"What's your condition. Couldn't you just see a specialist?" She asked dismissively, as she lowered her own expectation of co-oped training up here now that srimpee is interested in helping this girl. "I'll probably join in to help. No point sitting around, and shit- might be a beast around here to fight."

Ryce and Srimpee blinked in surprise at the statement that they were "trapped" on top of the mountain. They share a confused glance towards each other before looking back to May as she adjusted her prosthetics. "Are you...trapped up here or something?" Ryce asked tentatively, cocking his head to the side. "'Cause...mys sister and I just kinda...flew up here...it wasn't really that hard..." He grinned sheepishly and scratched the back of his head. Kind of odd that she got all the way up here without flight, but also really impressive. It couldn't have been easy with a missing arm and leg to climb so high, especially with it being so cold.
It wasn't exactly hard to tell that May didn't care much for Peno's mystery condition or even really for himself or Srimpee. He didn't get why the girl had tried to shoo them off already. He found it fairly apparent that she would rather be left alone, yet she still continued to humor them. Weird. "Seems a bit too high for anything to really be wandering around here," Srimpee chipped in. "Kind of odd to think plants would even be growing up here as well."
