         "I'll agree with you there. They're both something to look at that's better than your mug. When is the last time you saw a woman?" He nudged his friend with a smirk. Neither of them had for a long time, until now. "Well Jester is far more charming than either of us. I have no problem with that." He kept the conversation up, because despite them being out of the way he could still hear what was being discussed by the sisters. He tried not to actually pay attention to what they were saying, that wouldn't be a good impression to leave if he eavesdropped.

The rest of the time he spent in silence, watching their route with care. He allowed himself to smile a little at Blue's antics, Via had that amount of energy. She was just as curious when she was younger and not as irritating. She also had wings so she wouldn't get herself in trouble she couldn't really escape from.

"Blue, come back here! You don't have to be such a-- BLUE!"

Kane's entire body tenses as he saw in high definition Blue's journey in the net. His breath catches only to release in a massive sigh when the Wolf pup emerged unharmed from the barrage of arrows. He lurched into action as soon as Rhys did, glancing back to check on Kitty. Here face was white and filled with terror clutching her necklace in such a way he though she would break it. I almost made him blanch himself. The thought of Via, Rhys or Jester being so near to death rushed through his mind. He knew how she must be feeling, at least a bit.

While Rhys scaled the tree to cut away the net and rescue the pup Kane moved himself into a more threatening position. Firstly pacing towards the now sprung trap. He crouched next to and gingerly brushed whatever was left concealing it. It was actually a set of balanced triggers and in fact a very complicated mechanism leading to the device the fired the arrows. He cursed himself for not spotting it, despite the fact it was actually out of vision behind a stump. Certain that this device posed no more threat he turned his attention back to the surroundings. The way he crouched shifted slightly as he focused, more hunched. Sleeker and almost like a stalking beast. His eyes darting from side to side, shifting through the environment searching for something out of place.

I took him but a moment to spot a series of traps. All hidden as well as the first one. This place was akin to a minefield. A few of them were more complex but there was perhaps the more obvious one sitting in the open concealed by leaves. From how it looked the heavy iron bear trap was a distraction. Something obvious to lull the prey into a sense of security, there was no doubt the prey was humans. Nothing he saw here was designed to catch deer or squirrels. He stood and fished out a large stick from where it had fallen nearby. Glancing back to Rhys now dropping back to the ground he moved tenderly forwards heading for the distraction first. With the stick he shoved down on the pressure plate the the vicious jaws snapped shut. They sliced throught the brunch, crunching and crushing it. He could feel the sensation as it run through the brunch and it made his teeth grit and his body shudder.

"Guys... I'm not sure this forest is as safe as we want it to be."

"Yes." Kane replied as he turned back look back at Rhys and the others, Blue was safe and Kitty was at least reuninted with him after such a shock. Tyron sniffed the air to confirm and relayed the details back to the other three.
"The scent seems about a day old, perhaps they set the traps last night. As far as I can tell there was four of them, unless one was rather pungent. They have a dog with them too."
He moved over to another trap, this one was similar the one that caught Blue. A very low lying trip line connect to yet another firing box. cautiously he used stick to snap the wire. Immediately after the flurry of arrows filled the air, some disappearing off into the brush while some thudded into a trunk.
"As dangerous as this place is we need to disable these traps. We don't want anyone stumbling into them. We've already set one off."
