"Believe me, I don't think I'm going to even be able to look at a forest the same after this," Madison sighed, jumping when she heard a branch snap off to their right and drawing even closer to Dimitri, she could care less that she hadn't met him but an hour..was it even that long? all she cared about was that he was a living human being and that there were monsters out there in the forest. She would probably have a heart attack right now if he were to suddenly disappear and leave her in this cursed place.

Dimitri drew her close, "Shh," he whispered softly, trying to calm her, "I'm sure they can sense fear," he murmured softly as he looked down at her, then continued to walk. Dimitri on the other hand, was handling things pretty well, and appeared calm, his heart rate and breathing completely normal and calm as he walked with her, "but if you do ever come here again, I'll meet you half way," he murmured softly, implying that he'd go through hell again to make sure she made it out fine.

[redtie]

Madison was trying hard to calm her heart rate and breathing back to normal, but she couldn't help trembling, she was a chicken on her best day, and in this dark forest, with noises, and vampire little girls, and whispering voices, and shifting shadows, she couldn't help but feel terrified. "Thanks," she spoke quietly, looking over at Dimitri with a small smile, "and I'll do the same if you ever have to come back through here." she would, nobody deserved to be alone in this, especially not someone as kind as he was being to her.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

Dimitri smiled softly as he drew her close, relaxing. He liked her, she was a good person, but he highly doubted that she'd put herself through the forest again, he doubted she'd do it for him. He let out a soft sigh as he glanced around, getting used to the feel of holding her close to himself. He usually didn't get close, but he'd make the exception for now. He was silent, listening around for a moment, before he relaxed again, "I'm pretty sure this is going to follow us out of the forest..." he mumbled. He'd make sure to give her some way to contact him if she needed to.

"Noises and shadows I can handle," Madison spoke with a hushed voice, looking around, at the moment she was just scared that something actually solid with a killing designed form would pop out at them from nowhere. She looked over at Dimitri before looking around again, she was unnerved by the silence around them, and was half wishing the rhymes would return, at least then she had known the monster was out there in the forest somewhere, now she was afraid something might be creeping up behind them silently...she turned her head to look back, a chill running down her back before she looked ahead again.

"Just relax, my dear," Dimitri mumbled, then paused when he caugt himself, "force of habit," he explained for the name he'd said. It was how he calmed his baby sister down, he had to be gentle and sooth her, "just focus on me, do not give them any attention. I'm sure they feed off fear," he murmured gently as he drew her close. As much as Dimitri hated it, he had to view Madison as his little sister to try and calm her down. He sighed softly, looking around for a moment, before gazig ahead.

[redtie]

Madison sighed, looking over at Dimitri for a moment before looking around the forest again, "It's easier said then done..what if somethings waiting for us not to pay attention..?" she bit her lips, trying hard not to think about it, she didn't mind him calling her dear or holding her close, right now she was relaxing more because of his gentle words and closeness, drawing comfort in the fact that she wasn't alone right now.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

"I'm paying attention, Madison. I'm just calmer about it. Just focus on me, okay? I'm keeping high alert, and I'll notice," Dimitri murmured softly. He had moved his face closeto her ear to murmur the words, just in case something was listening. After a moment, he straightened up, holding her close, "everything is going to be fine," he said softly as he looked around.

[redtie]

Madison slowly nodded, closing her eyes for a moment as she made herself relax before opening her eyes again, trying to stay focused on Dimitri and nothing else, through now she faintly heard the sound of rapidly snapping branches, not leaning in any direction but repeatedly snapping. She didn't let herself panic, instead turning her head to focus on Dimitri's face.

[Ƨнα∂σω Ƙιƨƨ]

Dimitri's deep brown gaze shifted to Madison for a moment, before he looked around, looking for what had made the snapping noises. He drew her closer, trying to convince himself that she was okay for now, he had her close and in his arms. She would be safe until she was out of sight, or if he was killed. He planned on not dying tonight. He sighed softly, glancing around again. He was ready for anything at the moment.
