Monty calmly looked at James with a level stare. "Don't worry, we know what we're doing. We've been doing this for years. It's our proffession." He looked over and saw Sayen slip into the woods after Althea. "Wait!" He called, and groaned with a heavy look.

Althea looked back and saw a dark movement in the woods with her sharp eyesight. She skidded to a halt and called out, "who's there? Don't follow me if yore part of the group."

"And what is this proffession of yours?" Fen asked, bewildered at the situation.

"Why, assassination of course." Monty replied, flicking his eyes at Fen with a dark look. Fen took a step back and gave a look in the direction the two girls went.

James glared at Monty. "No no no. You're being stupid. Luna bought us a free ride into town without suspicion, you aren't going to waste it. And she's hurt badly and they're going to take her to get attended to." He said growling lowly.

Luna shook her head. "Just leave them alone, Monty, they aren't going to hurt us now. Please." She said yelping as her leg hit a branch.

Sayen glared at Althea. "What are you doing." She said holding her spear out toward Althea. "I will not let you hurt those men. If we go into town when their guards go missing and are found slain, it would be impossible to stay." She said thinking of Luna. Her quick thinking gave Sayen some respect for her. She had certainly not thought of it. "Your brother seems to like little Luna a little. He offered to treat her with the special care he gives you, she is wounded badly and needs rest. And if we kill these men, like I thought we should moments ago, we'd have to slay the whole town for her to get it. I do not believe in mass murder. They are probably only soliders fallowing orders." She said walking closer.

"What do you think will happen when those hunters figure out we were lying to them? and how useful do you think Althea will be when they find us in town? Can you please trust me on this?" Monty said with pleading eyes "trust me, we know what we're doing! And plus, both Althea and I aren't going to kill when we have no reason to. You've got it all wrong. We don't have target at the moment. I need you guys to trust me." He said, shaking his head.

Althea rolled her eyes, "Why would you automatically assume I'm a ruthless killer? I have a brain you know, and I can think of the consequences on my own. Yes, I know that there would be consequences that I don't need to take. Didn't my brother tell you we know what we're doing? Or did you take off without second thought like when you did on the flight?" She said challengingly. She looked over the girl and turned around. "Now could you quit pointing your spear at me and head back to the group. I'm not going to hurt anyone. Not unless needed at least. Right now, this is the most efficient thing I can do. And also, Monty gives any friend special treatment if they're wounded, in fact... " She said in a matter-of-fact tone, "even you."

Fen thought things over slowly. He didn't think of Monty as someone who would make useless decisions. He slowly nodded and said "I believe you, Monty."

Luna shook her head a little. "Well, not mentioning this little skill of yours and your sisters when we were all discussing our skills definitely helps build trust." She said sarcastically moving to get down from James' back. "Thanks but I think I'll go walk ahead with the nice guards making sure the path's safe." She said gritting her teeth as she walked. He should have explained better and discussed it with the group.

James sighed slightly watching Luna walk ahead of them slightly limping, tripping up every now and then. "I believe you but Luna has a point, why weren't you straight forward with us? Rasul said that trust was the most important thing." He said groaning slightly.

Sayen shook her head. "My actions are no different than yours. You haven't listed assassination as one of your skills and you just left without so much as a small explanation." She said frowning. "And I need to trust the person who would be helping me." She said leaving her walking back to the others staying behind them as she walked.

Althea looked up at the slightly visible moon through the trees and sighed, thinking to herself, I thought sniping was a form of assassination, and Monty did tell everyone that he was good with daggers... No one understands. After standing there a few seconds, she started moving again to the mountains. After all, high points were great for snipers.

Monty looked up at the slightly visible moon and sighed, wondering if Althea was thinking the same thing. "Sorry, I didn't think you guys would automatically assume I would jump to foolish actions. The only team I've ever had to be in was Althea's, so joining a group like... A large group, I'm just not...." He sighed. "used to this..." He muttered. "I never meant to make you guys think I would harm the guards. Sorry..." He finished, and was quiet the rest of the way to the town.

Fen was in total shock of how the group seemed miles away from eachother, yet they were only standing a few feet apart. He backed up to where Monty was and spoke a few words of encouragement to him, but the black haired boy looked as though he was in a distant place, where he could hear no one and all he wore was a blank look. Perhaps it was being away from his sister that made him like this.

James swallowed a little putting his hand on Monty's shoulder when Fen seemed to fail in talking to him. "Look I'm sorry for assuming the worst of you. I'm usually not so quick to accuse people like that, it has been a bit stressful today. For all of us. I think the rest of us just over reacted because all except for you and your sister are on our own in this." He said tightening his grip on his shoulder reassuringly.

Luna shuffled behind the gaurds not feeling too well. Why was she so clumsy? This probably wouldn't be happening if she hadn't messed up. So much for being a team.

Sayen walked a little closer to the men listening to them as they spoke. "Where is Luna?" She asked looking around for the small girl. "She is still too injured to walk off." She said not even looking at Monty. She was mostly asking Fen.

All Monty said was, "it's fine, really. It was my fault in the first place." But he didn't change from his blank state. Though he was aware of his surroundings and the voice of Sayen, he didn't spare a glance behind him. When he wasn't with his sister, he didn't need feelings. Just actions.

"We're not on our own, thats what teams are for." Fen chipped in.

Fen frowned at the seemingly robotic Monty until he heard Sayen ask about Luna. He motioned to where Luna was walking."She's walking with the gua-" He stopped as he saw Luna wobbling as she walked. "Oi, are you okay? You don't look well." He said, rushing up to her and steadying her.

James shook his head looking up at Luna when Fen yelled. He walked up to them quickly looking at her. She didn't seem okay at all.

Luna shoved Fen away weakly. "I'm fine. I don't need any help." She said surprised when she felt a smaller arm slip around her from below her arms. "If you shove me away, it will not end well for you." Sayen muttered into her ear taking on most of her weight. Luna swallowed, "Please, I don't need any help." She said again stubbornly.

Sayen glared at her. "Fen, get on her other side." She growled glancing at Luna's legs, she had a little bit of blood making footprints on the ground. "If you say you are fine one more time, I will knock you out and drag you into the woods and bandage your legs myself." She threatened her as some light became visible through the trees. "We're almost there." One of the men in the front yelled back to them.

Monty stayed where he was, wandering behind the group. He took in the situation with his eyes, but saw it was already being taken care of, so he didn't join them. Instead, he looked to the mountains, wondering if Althea found a nice place to camp.

Fen shook his head and gave a worried smile. "Don't be like that." He said, with a fake hurt look as he quickly took up her left side. "you're more of a burden when you're stubborn." He mentioned jokingly.

James walked next to Sayen feeling two things he didn't like. One feeling like he failed by letting Luna go and two useless because they had it covered. "I'll go ahead and find out where should bring her." He said walking past them to the guards who had just reached the edge of town. He glanced back realizing they'd find it odd if on of their group was missing. "One of the girls went back to find our Luna's coin pouch, it fell on the walk here." He said quickly asking where they should take Luna and listened to their directions.

Luna shook her head. "I don't need help." She said avoiding saying sh was fine worried that Sayen would take up on her threat even though they were so close to town.

Sayen looked back at Monty. "Quickly. Your sister is fine, we must see to Luna now and discuss your plans to rejoin with your sister. We need to all be together, she is in grave danger without us." She said thinking of Rasul's warnings.
