When Elena hears a voice respond, she momentarily thinks she's crazy. It wouldn't be the first time something unexplainable has happened to her. A best friend being possessed by her long dead ancestor and a vampire boyfriend who likes to repeat high school are among the many unexplainable circumstances in her life.

But that voice sounds real. She wants it to be real. Her heart lurches along with her hope and Elena tries to follow it. If she had vampiric hearing, she'd be able to follow it with confidence, but she can only hope the voice will answer her again.

"Are you in the snow, too?" she yells it as loud as she can, knowing it'll burn her throat later on. She tries to walk as fast as she can, feet sinking into the snow. She's unknowingly walking toward the direction of the town that will hopefully help her thaw herself out. "Or are you snow? Because I'm starting to think everything's snow!"
