"whoa" charles rolled back and dug his feet into the dirt and bolted off "we neednt do this"

[Opposition]

Himeko looked to Anxius and smiled. "I see you sensed distrust in him as well. Good." She then looked to Hikaru. "I am okay wherever the group takes us! Wherever is safer I suppose."

Hikaru caught the 'smell' of fear coming from nearby. He darted in that direction, coming upon a horrific scene. Anxius looked like he was going to kill Charles. "What's going on here?"

[Valkyr]

Anxius stopped and glared as the fox bolted away. If speed wouldn't work, then he'd have to try another tactic. Still in his "hunting mood," he immediately sensed the wolf headed in their direction. He turned towards the wolf, his irritated glare not fading. "Do you know that one?" He growled, indicating the fox.

[Opposition]

"Yes, but it appears he has some ill intentions. Thank you for that, sir." She gives him a warm smile after Charles is gone.

[MangaArtist15]

"That's... I think that's Charles." Hikaru said, puzzled. His face quickly went into a fixed snarl. "Why are you trying to hurt him?!"

[Valkyr]

"I don't trust him!" Anxius snarled back, "He could've hurt Himeko!"
He took a deep breath and continued as calmly as he could. "If he's innocent, why would he run off like that after I simply asked him what he wanted?"

"Let's keep a person on watch at all times once we've set up camp. I do not want him coming near us." Luneth said, glaring in the direction Charles was. "Speaking of camp, do you want to move upstream, Anxius?"

[Valkyr]

Anxius sighed and turned away from the wolf without waiting for a reply. He nodded towards Himeko as he passed her.
"Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if he came back," Anxius replied to the rabbit, "upstream sounds fine."

He felt the urge to stalk the fox again with his Hissatsu, but he was starting to use it too much. He didn't want to prematurely lose his vision.

"I guess that's everyone, then. Should we make our move at daylight, then?" Hikaru suggested, noticing the sunset.

[Kafka Komedy]

"Yeah." Luneth nodded, finally looking away from where Charles left. "So, who's on watch first?"

[Minarawr]

Mina watched as Anxius chased after the fox she distrusted. She looked at Himeko, surprised by her calm demeanor. 'It seems he has some.' she agreed with the feline's statement. 'Do try to stay close to one of us? We wouldn't want you to get hurt.' she said.
She turned at the question about keeping watch and spoke again. 'I can keep watch at night, it's the best time for me.' she said.
She created a small shadow puppet in the shape of a cat and it pranced around Himeko playfully.
'I should be able to sustain it the entire night. See it as a personal bodyguard.' she said.

[Kafka Komedy]

Luneth couldn't stop himself from gawking in amazement as the shadow puppet. "Wow. All night? That's... impressive." Luneth quickly straightened himself out. "All right, so to get this clear, we're moving up stream, then we're going to attack the Shades that invaded Marcus' home, right?"

Charles had ran in a complete circle around them, he knew if he stayed in the same direction they would suspect him, he had gone one way and now returning the complete opposite, that's the joys of being a fox... leg muscles. he got himself into a position of safety and saw one of them creating a shadow puppet and say she would stay all night.
"that could help me a bit" he thought to himself as he realised that the puppet wouldn't be able to hold ALL night and the creator would have to be either tired or weak.
as for the wolf that chased him, he must of had some radar power, that stuff could hurt you, the other guys weren't much of a problem. he would just have to wait

[Minarawr]

She looked at him sheepishly at the compliment. 'Well.. only at night though, that's when my powers are strongest. I'll need some sleep in between though, or else I won't have enough energy.' she explained.

[MangaArtist15]

"Actually." Hikaru said. "You can use your power indefinitely. But it causes great physical strain on your body. Don't use it for a long time-span."

[Opposition]

Himeko prances around with the little shadow puppet, she still didn't break her calm attitude.
"Alright we will move in the day! Do not strain yourself miss, I am nocturnal and can watch some of the night for you!"
