Ryan smiled as the plan seemed to come together. He had apparently miscounted and had missed someone when counting how many people there were, but having an extra only made it easier. He watched the ones with the children fly away before setting off after them, staying behind some to ensure there was a closer option for the titans than the ones with children. He of course moved at a slower pace than he usually did, so he was one of the closest to Vernon when it happened. He saw something in the corner of his eye, moving. He quickly turned his head in that direction only to see a titan fly directly at Vernon, taking a bite out of his arm. His eyes widened in horror as his ally dropped directly into a building. Ryan was just about to start heading back when he realized that all the others had decided against it. [i]I can't take an abnormal on my own... I was lucky enough to kill one average titan... Vernon... Find something to stop the bleeding and stay alive in there... Even if I have to come alone, I'll make sure a rescue party comes out here.[/i] He looked forward once again, hooking another building with his one hook. "We need to get them to the wall, that line could be pushed back at any second. The wall itself is the only chance." He looked to the children as he moved. Though they were a slight distance away, he could make out their shapes held up by his allies. [i]They had families... Are they alive? Will those kids even live for a couple months after today, or will they die... No one to look after them? I'll make sure to keep tabs on each one, and bring them food I make myself every day... Even if their families are fine, they'll be worse off than they were...[/i] He glanced back for a moment, [i]Well... If I don't die trying to find Vernon...[/i]
