The man in red with the darker skin and the paler hair appeared perfectly composed as he waited outside the cavern for everyone else to get there, keeping a watchful eye on his surroundings--and spotting the seated cat-thing before it opened his mouth. Now that was a strange creature... quite unlike anything he'd ever encountered over his life. Vampires and their tendency to become increasingly bizarre, yes, but humanoid cats? This was somewhat stranger than even those, since at least they [i]started[/i] human.

Most of them.

Saber's face took on an odd expression when she saw the cat, and Archer couldn't help but smirk at it. The confident, perfect king, losing her perfect composure because of a cute cat. No doubt she'd be embarrassed if she realised that someone had found out her distraction--but that would just make the smirking even more noticeable.

Then, the cat started speaking about killing a dragon. So [i]that[/i] was their mission, here? Maybe they should have killed the thing in the caves, just in case it turned out to be the right enemy. Better, perhaps, than being summoned for a battle to the death with the prize being All the World's Evils getting unleashed.

The magical girl winced as the creature was so brutally obliterated--but it was an aggressive wild animal, and knocking it out hadn't been a practical concern. Right now, it was more important to get away from the onrushing herbivores. Meanwhile, the redheaded girl who'd been panicking at the sight of the first enemy was running away deeper into the forest. Concerned that she might get herself hurt in her panic, the airborne girl followed along, keeping up through a combination of flight being quite fast, even if speed wasn't her strongpoint, and not needing to worry about obstacles..

Besides, even if anything [i]had[/i] gotten in the way, she'd just blow her way through it.
