Looking to tell Ribeiro to stay nearby, Savas merely let her go, seeing that it was evident that she was still uncomfortable to be around him. Ngggrh...you'd think being around each other for three years so far would make her not so nervous... he thought as proceeded on. Looking one last time over at Ribeiro, he smirked slightly as he saw her kneeling over the body of a dead horse. "Perhaps the rumors are true..." he whispered to himself. He had heard the rumors about her and her previous team; how she was a fanatic over the sight of blood, how she was the reason her teammate died, that she herself was the one who had killed her teammate.

Pushing all thoughts aside, Savas came over to one of the caravans and inspected it. Scowling slightly at the sight of two dead humans lying amidst crates of cargo, Savas proceeded towards the next caravan, when a crackling of a twig from the side of the road near Kei and Acero caused him to stop and listen. Watching the brush on the roadside carefully, his eyes caught a slight movement from a nearby bush.

Whistling quickly over towards Kei and Acero, Savas motioned them to investigate the bush that the movement had come from prior. Looking over towards Ribeiro, he motioned for her to come closer to where he was standing. Pulling Sandalphon out of its sheathe, he readied himself to fight in the event that it be an ambush.


OOC: I'm thinking of having it be two little children huddled in the bush. Figured I would let you guys know since you're all up next. If you decide not to go with that, then feel free to have it be some Grimm coming out. The choice is yours.

Acero froze as he heard the bushes rustling, paying attention to Savas' hand motions to investigate it. The cyborg combined his weapon back together into it's greatsword form before slowly walking over towards the bush, ready to strike down anything that might be hiding in there. Unsurprisingly, the fourth year was shocked to see two little kids hiding in the brush, both looking scared out of their minds.

With a sigh, Ace sheathed his weapon and turned his face away, thinking it would scare the children more. "Just some kids boss, though, I don't think my face is gonna help them calm down at all. Anyone wanna try calming them down a little?

Ribeiro sat oggling at the sight of different colored blood on the paper, normal people wouldn't be able to discern the difference to any of them but Ribeiro was entranced by the tiny changes between them. A sense of being watched suddenly creeped on her. A shiver overwhelmed her as she looked around for the source, she dared not be seen doing something that might scare her team.
"Just some kids boss, though, I don't think my face is gonna help them calm down at all. Anyone wanna try calming them down a little?
Ribeiro breathed a sigh of relief mistaking the kids for what was watching her. This was something she could make herself useful for, she thought. Approaching the bush Ribeiro knelt down to the children's level so she woulf face them on an even level. Being rather short already this was not hard for her. "hey It's ok now we'll protect you" Ribeiro softly cooed out to the kids.

At least there were people who survived this mess.

Kei followed Ribeiro to the side of the bush and squatted, looking over the two kids for any major injuries. He couldn't really see clearly though, as the bush obscured most of his view. Anger rose within his mind before his consciousness battered it back into submission. The worst thing that could happen now was to attract more Grimm and potentially have two more casualties added to the never-ending list.

"..." He rummaged in a side pocket and retrieved two wrapped chocolates from within, holding them out to the kids as a sign of goodwill. "...Sweets?"

Seeing that it was only two small children who were huddled behind the bush, Savas relaxed slightly. Knowing that his height and appearance would probably send the children running and screaming in terror, he merely looked on from a distance as his other teammates did their best to ease their fears.



Smiling slightly, the two children slowly came out from the brush, but froze in stark terror as their eyes landed first on Acero and then on Savas. Flinching back momentarily, the older of the two mustered courage and, with one arm around what looked to be his sister's shoulders, he moved cautiously over to Kei and took the candy and handed one to the little girl. Taking the candy, the girl smiled softly and, letting go of the boy, she ran over to Ribeiro and threw her tiny arms around Ribeiro's shoulders as a sudden wave of tears began to fall from the little girls face.

"W-we were ambushed..." the boy muttered quietly, seeming to have regained his composure. Popping the piece of candy in his mouth, he seemed to relax more as the assurance of the team around them gave his comfort. "The big scary Grimm came out of nowhere..." Looking over towards one wagon in particular, his eyes widened as it began to glisten. Wiping his face he simply looked down at the ground as the realization of what took place seemed to take over his demeanor.



Listening quietly to the lad tell what happened, Savas continued to monitor the perimeter amidst the little girl's crying. Sounds more and more like it's a Nuckalavee he thought, clenching his fists briefly. Walking closer to the team, he kept himself from making eye contact with the two children; they had seen enough horrors as it was and he didn't want to cause them to be fearful anymore. "Ngggrh...I'll look over the perimeter and see if there are any tracks" he growled, his voice rumbling through the calm forest. "Acero, take the right side. I'll take the left." Shooting a quick glance at the girl and boy, the girl had a look of pure fear as she looked up at Savas, clenching tighter around Ribeiro's neck. The boy, however, looked up in both fear and awe, first at Savas and then at Acero.

Snorting slightly, Savas began walking away before turning around. "Ngggrh...I think we're up against a Nuckalavee so stay ready. See if the boy can give a description." With that said, he turned and continued walking down the perimeter of the forest, keeping a close eye on anything that might give a clue as to what they may be up against.

Upon hearing the word Nuckelavee, Acero froze for a moment, realizing that one of the most dangerous Grimm ever encountered was nearby, one that he had never even fought during his time in Atlas. The cyborg took a deep breath and exhaled from his nostrils before following his captain's orders, taking out his weapon and splitting it into two as he started to patrol the right side of the forest, looking a little on edge after hearing the news.

"Aww man, you've gotta be shitting me right now..." he muttered as his eyes darted to every bush and tree, in fear of being ambushed by more Grimm or even by the Nuckelavee.

She thought the little girl would approach her slowly, so the sudden hug came as a surprise for Ribeiro. Not the type to physically interact with most people Ribeiro sat uncomfortable for a moment, but the feeling evaporated as she heard the soft sniffing of a runny nose and felt wet tears on her shoulder. Suddenly she felt embarrassed for herself for being so afraid of her own team when real horrors roamed about taking the lives of entire families. She gave the girl a soft squeeze of a hug, but it felt more like she was consolidating herself more then anything. She remembered a time when she was the girl's age and did something similar to her own sister.
"I'm Ribeiro but call me Ree, can you tell me what did this look like? Was it a horse with something riding it?" Directing the question to both children she desperately hoped they would say no.

Sometimes it was better for one to remain ignorant than learn the bitter truth. Unfortunately for the two children they were clearly past that point. Shuffling over to block the wagon from the boy's view, Kei slowly put a reassuring hand on the boy's shoulder, trying to get the message across that he needed to stay strong to get through this ordeal. Even so, the simple mention of the potential Grimm drained his already pale face of any color, like a blank canvas.

Giving the boy's shoulder one final squeeze before standing up, he muttered under his breath to Ribeiro "...please do your utmost to comfort these children. I will stand guard." Gears in his sheath spun and whirred, rotating the stored lances within until it reached a solid steel core, before he unsheathed the rapier in a flourish.
