The wave of fire that the duo had avoided dispersed, though with the flames, screams from behind the duo erupted. Melissa afforded herself a quick glance to see the burning corpses as her snow was dancing around the area. It would seem these men that were charring had been related to Hannibal in some way, for with a single nod in acknowledgement as Patron fell into the snow, the man of ice, tired as he was sluggishly ran off to check upon the fallen comrades. As he ran back, Patron spoke.

""Well. If you must know, I only have the skill to keep one of those dolls up at a time, and it takes a while to whip one up. You've got the true article in your attractive clutches. Sad for y..."

Alas his words would be quelled by the snow beneath him that burst upwards, ensnaring his body, his chattering teeth and shivering from the cold causing him to speak his words much more sluggishly, alas by telling Melissa he was in fact the real Patron, well thats all she needed to know, having already covered the battlefield in her power, and with Patrons body now encircled by the snow that he had fallen into, causing this very snow to immobilize his already freezing body was mere childsplay for the female, incasing him in less than seconds. Her hand moved as she did so as if channeling the snow until nothing was left of Patron par his nose, affording him to breathe.

This did not solve the explosion though, as Patron bit upon his tooth, the dense snow shifted as the explosion burst forth, alas with this dense snow the explosion itself had been slightly contained. If it had not been for this, the large half dome of snow that encompassed the explosion itself would not have been formed in time. The force of the explosion itself was indeed powerful, requiring her semi dome to heal itself once before the full force of the explosion had died out. The snow crumbled and in the area that Patron had been was nothing but a small creator. "Mother fucker" Melissa uttered as she turned, she could still see Hannibal whom had just got to his men. Her eyes were well adjusted and a single soru would clear a lot of the distance enough for her to appear as he tried to hide the Ponylgyph. She would not make it known at this point that she saw what he did.

With her promotion she had been granted some power over the marines, Hannibals ranks included. it would also be common knowledge that close to no one could read these glyphs if they did not have the legendary third eye, no one would know that she and her old now dead friend had the capabilities of reading the legendary language. She would look at Kenny and lift her arms in a "What do you want me to do about it" kind of manner, thus prompting Hannibal to try to pick up both of them. It would be this time in which she struck out. With Hannibals hands being tied up and Melissa's speed being superior, pulling the stone from Hannibals pocket was a simple feat. If he protested or attempted to fight? Then the Shichi and the marine would be forced to go at it! If successful?

Melissa would look at the tablet. "Trying to hide this huh, you know I'm your superior now, right Mr Sexy!" she said with a wink as she held the small tablet. Her eyes looked to the glyph, the information upon, she read it with ease, though in all honestly the information upon it seemed rather odd. Her face frowned in confusion as her eyes darted across the ancient language...biting her lip she shook her head, with her left hand she popped the glyph back to Hannibal, curving her body into his as he held the duo. "Maybe in future, trust a gal will ya" she said with a kiss to his cheek, at this point she slid her hands around Rocket the smaller of the marines. "And don't offer a girl a heavy man to carry, let her take the smallest" she said as she walked forth. "For the record Ice Ice Baby, couldn't understand a fucking word" she said, shrugging as she walked. A lie, but those who were not born with the third eye whom could read these tablets were almost as rare as the third eye'd tribe themselves. There would be little reason for Hannibal not to believe her.
