1x1 With AnnaCat17 and Echo!

[AnnaCat17]

Azuna saw the grounder walking towards her and slowly moved back further into the shadows to hide. She expected a fight to break out when the two groups met and she couldnt understand why they werent.

Dash tried not to look at piper, not wanting attention to be drawn to her. His efforts became easy though as he heard a twig snap somewhere near them causing him to sticfen and raise his trident in defense. "We arent alone." He said to tge otgers as he began to move towards the sound.

Piper stayed with the other non fighters examining the ship. She stuck close to Caius, terrified that she would be discovered.

Mikah slowly gazed around the wreck site. He hadn't wanted to come. He didn't care about going. But Liah had forced him to come.

Liah snapped her head up. Hand at her knife, she cautiously approached the direction of the sound.

Caius took Piper's hand, giving her a reassuring squeeze. He led her through the wreckage, slowly making his way further from the others.

[AnnaCat17]

Suddenlu a scream sounded from deep in the forest and without hesitation Dash and his fighters charged off to rescue whoever was being attacked. His heart pounded as he feared Caia and her hunting party had gotten attacked on their way to the wreck.

Piper squeezed his hand gratefully as she watched the warriors run off. "I have a bad feeling about this." She whispered to him, her gaze sweeping the tree line.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Liah led a group out, following the scream. She left Mikah and a few others at the crash site.

Mikah glanced at the direction of the scream, but didn't react much to it. He watched Liah and the others leave after she told him to stay at the crash site.

Caius tensed when he heard the scream. "Me too," he murmured, watching the others leave. He tightened his grip on her hand, not wanting to lose her. He was worried that something bad was going to happen to them.

Suddenly three can like containers were thrown into the clearing and began to fill the area with a thick smoke. Piper began to cough as the smoke made her head spin. She tried to draw her bow but stumbled abd fell over as she saw figures in hazmat suits begin to steo through the fog towards them. "Caius..." She gasped out but could no longer see him as everything grew black and she fell asleep.

Dash continued to charge through the forest, completely disregarding any danger before him.

As Liah ran along atvthe back of the group a hand shot out from behind a tree and grabbed ahold of her, yanking her out of the path. She felt her back get pulled tightly against a large chest as a strong arm wrapped aroubd her, pinning her arms down as another wrapped around her, the rough hand clamping over her mouth to prevent her from screaming.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Caius got his knife out, but dropped it as he became dizzy. He fell to his knees, trying to get to Piper, but he hit the ground and blacked out.

Liah struggled to fight back, but her arms were pinned down. She bit the hand over her mouth as hard as she could, certain that this person was trying to kill her.

[AnnaCat17]

Azuna took off running as soon as she saw the people being carried off by the people in the hazmat suits.

Dash finally stopped running once hecreached a clearing, seeing the foot prints if an azgeda hunting party. "This was a trap. They were leading us towards an attack." He clutched his trident tightly as he gritted his teeth, trying to figure out what to do.

Magnus growled in pain and released her but made sure she stayed in arms reach. He was fully healed since the last time she saw him and had regained his old armor including his sinister looking mask making him look terrifying and allowing him to blend in with the forest.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Liah still struggled to get away, not noticing yet that it was Magnus. She twisted around and kicked him in the chest, but that was pretty much useless is he was wearing armor.

Mikah crumpled to the ground, unconscious from the smoke.

[AnnaCat17]

Magnus rolled his eyes and lowered the mask before saying in a quiet voice. "Mind kicking me quieter? They may still be nearby." He couldnt help but look her over, wanting to ensure she had been ok the past month without him. Of course she had been. He knew he was foolish to think she would need him but at the end of it all he was grateful to see her as strong as ever.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Liah stopped struggling, but was tense. What was Magnus doing here? And what was going on. "Who?" she hissed, scanning the trees for enemies.

OOC: The others wake up in cages, or later?
