Cris and Norah were on the job and blasted the snowballs out of the air. Feeling a shower of snow and ice falling down on her, Jasmine tried to maintain her concentration. She had to stay focused and drive, trusting her protectors to take care of everything else.

Having avoided the first obstacle, Jasmine straightened out the carriage, getting it back on track. She said to the horse, "Nice job, keep up the good work." She allowed herself a quick moment to check on Cris and Norah. "Are you guys OK?" Eyes back on alert, Jasmine gave the reins a shake to encourage the Abraxan to pick up the pace.


Cris breathed a sigh of relief, when Jasmine ably skirted Abe through the snowballs' debris and towards a clear path again.

"Well done, Jasmine. You too, Norah," Cris called down to the young Hufflepuff. He was sure he heard a couple of Reducto calls coming from the little girl.

He squinted his eyes, as he looked forward, trying to discern what was just snow on the ground and what would be a pending obstacle. Everything was so white out here that landscape just seemed to blend together.

....and that was why he almost didn't see the snow mound until they were almost upon it.

"Snow Mound, Jasmine! Right in front of us," Cris quickly pointed out the danger even as he raised his wand and pointed it at the mound. "REDUCTO!" he called out even as he waved the appropriate wand movements.

Cris watched as a blueish beam of light shot out and headed towards the mound.

Had he cast the spell in time or would they plough right into the snow mound and end the race here?
