"She used to try and do that too," Hotaru said to Larel's comment about being left in the dark, "But I got to the point where I wouldn't do what she asked until she told me why she was doing it because I kind of got tired of if not knowing what was going on or why," she glanced back to make sure there was no sign of Ovorion deciding to turn around. When they reached the edge of the village, she looked to see how far away the woods were from there before looking at Larel, "We're about to be very open targets, soooo dawdling might be a bad idea," she glanced back the way they came before running forwards, out in to the open space between them and the woods. She was hoping Ovorion wouldn't realize then that he was no were near his quarry and that hopefully he'd pursue in a completely different direction away from the village. They didn't need this monster on their tails while they were on the move. 
When Larel and Hotaru reached right inside the tree line, Mera came back up from under the ground, dusting herself, "Well, this day has been far too exciting for my tastes," she mumbled, shaking her head, "That bastard is my uncle. He's one of those old, traditionalist gypsies who believe we're mightier and more worthy of existence than everything else," she rolled her eyes, "He considers himself some sort of deliverer of justice, through whatever means necessary. He also thinks creatures like vampires and werewolves are trash that should be prevented from populating through means of making them extinct. Probably half the reason your parents decided to find a way to hide who and what they were," Mera looked at Hotaru, though it was clear that it didn't really change her opinion on anything, "But it's why I was warning you to get away because I knew the second he figured out what you were he was going to come after you," she said before looking back towards the village, "We can head back there in the morning if you'd like, or after we rest, we can keep moving, but he'll be gone for sure before too long. He doesn't like staying near human villages longer than he has to."
She didn't mention why he was there because she wasn't entirely sure at that moment either why. He'd never been fond of her, but she didn't think he was still coming after her for taking Mary. She took a deep breath, closing her eyes.
