Alex didnt need an apology. He knew what it was like to hold onto emotions for long periods of time and release them. In fact he had always believed they had always made for the most beautiful effects. It powered him the most. 
"You dont need to apologize..." Alex says. He pauses. He didnt want to bring it up so quickly but did so anyway. "We need to kill the bastard that did this." 
He says before awkwardly taking his hand off her shoulder. Alex turned a bit looking around. The forest was still quiet. Some kind of savage master hunter of a sort must have done this. Alex did not know a single person from this world but Elsa basically. 
Alex did not know much about tracking at all. He wouldnt know what to look for. Luckily or unluckily a howl of agony could be heard, stopping before finishing.
More deaths probably. Alex began to prepare to dash towards it but Elsa wanted him to be careful.... He looked back at Elsa, hopefully she had some kind of plan. Alex just wanted to run and find the bastard that did this.
