"I see... it is no wonder that the others hid behind you." Jantra said with admiration. "Well, I suppose we should begin searching for him now. Not that I am completely defenseless, but I'd prefer if we didn't split up. I'm not exactly used to the threat of permanent death."
While Jantra and Tyler were distracted, Grant had found his way into the barbershop. He looked into the basement to see Jack, Ribbon, Maria, Amelia, and Cait all gathered together, with no trace of Jantra or Tyler. He had only seen one of them in action beforehand, but he was confident that none of them would offer the challenge that Tyler had. He stepped back from the doorway and began to form ice armor around himself again, as well as a sword and shield.
His preparations complete, he walked into the basement. "If any of you cry for help it will be the last noise you ever make." Grant said quietly but forcefully. He pointed his frozen blade at Jack to emphasize his threat.
