Eyes wide, Kane gazed out over the water, watching as the boat that had brought him to the island departed. It had been a bit longer than expected, three and a half days rather than the apposed two, but it has been smooth sailing and he had slept nearly the entire time. While he wasn't afraid of swimming or drowning or anything like that, the soft lull of the boat made him rather sea sick. A wave of relief filled him as he looked down at the ground under his boots, a small hum of appreciation escaping him. He felt much more secure on land than on a boat!

[color=39b54a]"But those instructions sure are a tad bit vague."[/color] He muttered softly to himself as he spun on heel, making long strides along the edge of the trees before finding the path after a few long minutes. It really wasn't that hard to find, actually, but his attentions had been elsewhere- on the trees, the water, the soft crunch of earth under his boots. He'd been in forests before, on hiking trips and even camping during his school breaks with friends and their families. And after being cramped into that boat for three hand a half days he was honestly just grateful to be off of the boat with his feet on solid ground, ignoring the fact that these woods kind of gave him an unusual vibe of 'creepy'. 

For good measure, Kane quickly went about rolling up the long sleeves of his shirt until they were just above his elbows, made sure his bag was all closed up securely and that the straps were secured correctly, and then made sure the ends of his old, torn up jeans were tucked carefully into his boots. His hair he knew was absolutely hopeless cause, but regardless he dug a hand into one of the pockets of his jacket and pulled out a few black bobby-pins, quickly using them to pin his hair away from his eyes. It worked for the most part but he gave it no more thought as he slowly started his way onto the path.

And what would have been a calm, simple walk suddenly became much more urgent before he even got to his third step. Though it echoed, he heard what sounded like a shout or something of the sort, just a short distance away, followed by the sound of creaking and the sound of crashing trees. Or what he assumed were trees, at the least. Normally you should stay away from things like that, avoid it if possible- but Kane knew he couldn't. Even with just the off-chance that someone else was over there, he couldn't ignore it, because if there was someone over there and they were hurt... he'd feel awful. 

With the thoughts of others in mind, Kane pushed forward at a slightly faster pace.

[color=39b54a]"[b]Hello[/b]?! Is anyone over there?"[/color] He yelled aloud, his usually quiet voice booming with the enclosure of the trees as he practically began to jog.
