It took a Henry a moment before he noticed her, he almost forgot she was there. "Yes, I am alright, I was just thinking." He reassured her, with a small smile to prove it. Just then, his nose caught a whiff of something, of something familiar. Woods. His whole disposition had changed in the brief sniff of his favorite scent, Henry now displayed a satisfied look on his face, "I am more than okay for the moment." He said cheerfully as he quickened his pace slightly.

Sitting quite still Ryu listened to the voices the approaching crowd. Theier numbers increased as his other senses picked up other sutle things. Smells, noises, sounds, all of it helped him define the group. He sniffed when a familiar scent passed into his nostrils. "Cat." He shivered, "Great."

When she saw his mood go up, she smiled and said. "I'm glad." She then looked back to Mari and hurried to catch up to her. She thought she saw someone in the distance and she decided to point the person out to Mari. "There's someone there..I hope he's friendly and not one of those bad people." She shivered at the thought of being captured and sold into slavery, working endlessly for very little food and sleep and not having any kind of shelter. That was the kind of image she had of +Anima slavery.

Mari nodded. "I know. I don't think he's a slave dealer. There isn't enough space around here for a caravan, and they move in packs." The whole time, Mari didn't stop looking forward. Looking forward while talking gave the impression of a strong, reliable person. And clearly, the little girl needed someone like that. So Mari would act strong. Their group was a bunch of loose strings, and someone had to tie them together. And for now, it looked like it would be her.
((Guys, I hope this is cool with you, Mari kinda taking charge. Eventually, they should officially decide on a leader.))

Ryu couldn't help but smile at the small conversation his sensitive ears managed to pick up. "Slave trader heh. How interesting." Deciding that now might be a good time, Ryu got up from his shady tree and walked into the middle of the road.

Whistle stopped cold at the sight of this newcomer, and let his hands linger by his pockets, staring at the stranger coldly. "State your business, before I force you to." Was all that he uttered, but you could tell by the impassionate ice in his voice that he meant what he said.

Mari stopped walking, but nothing else in her body seemed to signify anything had changed. "He's the creeper who's been waiting for us to appear for a while now. He probably intends on raping the younger girls. Which he won't be doing." Mari said to Whistle. She figured that, since she knew basically what was going on, she could make a note before the stranger started spewing lies.

"Shall I shoot first and ask questions later, or do you want to hear him out?" The oldest muttered to Mari, looking to her as the leader for now. After all - what he would like to have done, and what he actually would do were two different things, and it wouldn't do to frighten the smaller children without a good reason.
Davey grew bold at this, and glared at the man in front of them. No one was gonna hurt Sara or Aisha and get away with it!

"Hm..." Mari mumbled. "Unfortunately, we're on a road, which means we're close to civilization*. He looks cocky, too. The cocky ones are the ones that scream the loudest. Someone might hear him if you mauled him." She sighed, crossed her arms, and spoke louder, so that someone other than Whistle could hear her. "Right. State your business, and do it quickly, or my friend here will maul you. He's very frustrated right now, you see. And the lot of us are strong +Anima. If you feel like running, that's fine too." She said the bit about +Anima on the fact that most people were under the impression that +Anima were insane, frightening creatures to be shunned and avoided. That was why they attacked them. It was just mob psycology. Three or four people every village said, 'hey, that's weird, do you think they might gather up and attack?' and eventually it escalated to, 'Oh my God, they're gonna rape my babies!' That was just how people worked.
((*Note that most of +Anima is in a medieval setting. Thus, when they were walking through the middle of nowhere, there weren't roads, probably because there weren't many roads anywhere.))

When she heard Mari mention that the man was going to try and do dirty things to her, she blushed heavily and then slowly hid behind Mari, who she believed would protect her. "I-is he really going to try and do that?" She really hoped not, though she knew her fears were for nothing, since she had a lot of friends around her who would protect her. Even Davey looked like he would do something.
((I lol'd too because that really is what most people think when they get hysterical. I mean look at today, no one let's their kids out of the house because everyone around them will kidnap them. XD))

Speaking of the cat boy, he looked to be plain livid, tail puffed as he hissed and spat at the stranger. Let him try something! Just let him! He would bop him with his canoe paddle, and then who would be the big guy?

Ryu was facing the direction of the group and he could tell he was not welcome.clearing his throught he spoke, "Would you really do something as awful as attack a blind man?" Removing his blindfold he opened his eyes to reveal light gray clouded eyes. "I wish you and your group no harm. That was never my intention." Taking a small step further he spoke. "Or would you prefer to attack a defenseless +Anima?"
