Vivian felt her legs getting numb, for once they weren't cold. When she took another step, she stumbled again. She put her palm against the nearest tree trunk, digging her nails into the bark. She had to keep moving. She caught a glimpse of her hand in the light of the moon, it looked ghostly pale. Then again, it was probably just a trick of the light. Vivian stood upright again, and continued on. Each step was uncoordinated, she felt like she was walking on ice. That must've been it, she was walking on ice.
She continued to walk for the next five minutes, when it occurred to her that she was no longer shivering. Glancing behind her, Vivian felt a wave a paranoia wash over her. The feeling that she was being watched, hunted. Vivian picked up her speed, making it no more than three paces before she lost her balance and crashed into the snow.
OOC: There's no-one following her BTW, just the paranoia brought on by the hypothermia.
