GubGarTried to color Natus' speech, but BBcode was not working with me. I will add color coding later.

Natus heard that the battle was over, he was still alert that there may be more enemies coming, but he had to use this time efficiently. He was trained to move without a trace, so he did not need to go back and cover his tracks, however his allies was not as professional.
He walked over to the grenadier, as he appeared to be the most important of the men in whatever hierarchy they served. He took out out his notebook and quickly copy the symbol on his body into it. He was not a great artist, but he had a steady hand and while he could not capture every detail of the design, he would be able to copy it enough that it would be recognizable. Perhaps if he was given enough time to study the design and create a copy, he could create a forgery of it, however he could not presume that he had the time for it.
After he had copied the symbol into his notebook, he took the next page of his notebook and created a meaningless symbol and took his dagger and dragged a blue line down it. He then cut off his hands and legs to hide to obscure the fact the man died from cut tendons and draw attention to the body, and then he slashed his throat. He took the piece of paper and forced into the man's clothing and then turned the body over into the dirt so that hopefully the piece of paper will survive the fire.
He walked over to the captain without a sound, even when he was not trying to be sneaky, it would be easy to miss the short cadet with his light steps in the dark. He did the proper salute and then said in a low, serious voice, "Reporting. I have placed a tracking spell on a piece of paper and put it on the grenadiers body. Should they choose to investigate it and move it within a day's time, I will be able to know. If you will excuse me, there is still work to be done. I will now try to obscure our foot path." he said, leaving to move the dirt to hide any trails either side might of made, and he took a pair of boots from the corpses of one of the enemies to make false foot prints to confuse the enemy. He considered using the shoes of one of his comrades, however in his previous experiences, that would upset them.

Fenrir had been on his knees desperately trying to cover his ears. It physically hurt, and it hurt a lot. His balance felt a bit off and he had a massive headache, but he had been in worse situations. He got to his feet, and noticed that Boros had left, revealing Tumble.
He got a good whiff of the room, and it already smelled like home. He looked at Tumble, and couldn't help but remember Loki passed out drunk in a similar fashion. He just sighed, leaning against the wall, and muttered to himself I might not have my sanity by the end of this, but I have to do it. I owe him much more than this.
He then stopped, and looked over to Nori and made a noise that almost sounded like a snarl to Nori, "I appreciate you standing up to Boros, but if you decide to make ears bleed again, I don't care if you a male, girl, or whatever. Do that again, and we will need to settle that outside."

A city, a town, a forest, a burning forest, a desert: It didn't matter the terrain, all Finis members are trained to be a shadow in both the light and the dark, invisible to normal eyes, not by magic, but pure skill and training.
Natus spotted the target threatening his team. Against an army, he is weak. Against a single man, he is a grim reaper. He had positioned him behind the grenadier, moving without a sound. He reached towards the ground and grabbed as much dirt as he could from the ground, with his blade in his other hand. As he moved, he striked the group with the red-edge of his blade, moving quickly and without hesistiance or pause. And without stopping his stride, he made two brutal slashes against the tendons of the would-be bomber, leaving them with the red mark.
He turned around, and the red marks he left on the ground and the person exploded as he took the dirt and throw it into the crowd to cover his escape. At least one bullet flew towards him, but did not hit. He retreated back into stealth, hoping he had placed enough force into his attack to kill the man quickly. Another sneak attack against the same enemy twice would be harder, but not impossible.

Redd emerged from the other side of the bush, disappointed in the lack of red nectar. He then doubled around and came from the same direction they original came for in order to draw less suspicion. He say that another of the newborns was talking to the human. He looked at his make-shift spear, and placed it gently in the roots before approaching any closer.
He was no closer to tasting the red nectar than when he was born, though it felt so close. Their was a temptation just to take it by force, but no, he needed a subtler means of achieving his goal. He had heard that you need to join groups in order to learn magic from humans. He had memories he should not have of what groups are and what they do. For him, the magic would only be a tool for him to add to his tool-belt, the his real objective was to gain the trust of the humans.
Redd walked up to Sabu, for he did not know if the human spoke his language or not and very bluntly asked, "I want to join the humans to learn magic." The line was to emotionless and he technically was not lying, and instead just lying but omission.

If she would openly say that she could heal him using her powers, but doesn't just have enough strength to do so, Alex would offer to help. The only problem is that if she doesn't say that, then he can't help.
To clarify, Natus was out of the group's sight as well. Though, I guess she would be able to infer that he is holding back since people aren't suddenly having their tendons ripped apart. (He is to short to cut their necks)
Alex stumbled up to Sarah, and thought to himself if he should trust what they found on the train, but decided to keep that to himself. If there was trackers in the food, they would already have it in their bodies. He looked back at the train and muttered, How does that material work. It seemed to be disabled when the car crashed, but why. Does it need electricity to work and the crash cut the power? Or does it need to fully enclose a person to function."
"I think that would be wise." he said softly to Sarah. He looked around at the group and on a normal day, have of these people would scare him, however today, they had a common foe. If he was back at his mansion, he would probably avoid Sarah at all cost. He never did appreciate the luxuries his money afforded him until now.

I decided that instead of waiting for a while to post, I would just give you a peak into my character's thoughts. If/when he gets a third form for his vessel, it will either be a crossbow or a hand-crossbow. Right now, he doesn't really do much against large groups.
Natus had been hiding before the attack started, preparing to eat. He had brought his own food; solid, tasteless, and efficient. Food that had a broth or liquid element could be dangerous, a single stain can be the difference between being spotted or being invisible. He was not surprised when the foreign army attacked, simply storing his food in a hidden pocket, pulling his bandanna over his face, and pulling out Mercy and turning her into battle form.
He did not attack yet, the others seemed capable of holding of these grunts. What he did do is observe them, and prepared him to take out any runners when the other inevitably lost. These soldiers were woefully under prepared, which meant one of two things: They simply did not know they would run into this group, or this is simply fodder to distract us as more capable foes approached. Either way, he would have to stay alert. A single runner could be trouble, and a captive could be very useful.
