As they asked their questions, Athos would take in a deep breath as he thought of answers and by the time he was about to let the breath out, he had them,"From what has been seen, it's got... Well, Ice Breath. I've seen it mimic a snow storm in a single breath, to freezing over a village in a coat of ice. So to say, it'd be bad to be hit with this. And it's not chakra, no, but it can still blind the hell out of Dojutsu... Or at least the Sharingan." He addressed Bec's comment after he answered the other questions,"It does seem to be smarter than you would think, but there's still got to be way to beat it."
Athos would look at them as he would cross his arms and take in a deep breath, releasing it in a sigh, his breath showing in the cold weather,"I hate to sound cliche, but we may have to split into two teams of two. If we're going to trick it, perhaps we can make it think that we can alone... Or even, three men to distract and one to try to catch if from behind." As he would say that though, there'd be a small frown that formed on his lips for only a fleeting second before he dismissed that plan,"No, that's got too many risks."
