*The masky-statue slides away from Alex, which is an absolutely horrifying sensation for the man encased in the ice. He can't move. He can't breathe. He can't change the direction he's looking. He's panicking. Why can't he move? He needs to breathe, he can't. His brain just yammers at him: You're going to die. You're going to die. You're going to die.

But just as Masky starts to lose consciousness from the lack of air the ice starts to crack and break away. He collapses to the ground drawing in huge gasps of air. What is .. ? He's shaking from the cold but, having never experienced the sensation before, has no idea what's going on. Before he's even fully thawed he's dashing into the nearest room and closing the door behind him. He leans against the door hoping that Alex won't follow. He wraps his arms around himself shivering, unsure what's causing it, or how to fix it.*
