Reena was already up,cleaning her tools and making sure everything was in order. "Idion, hunting knife, urine...lets see here.." She carried light, aside from a 170 pound draw compound bow. The thing was a monster and even she had trouble pulling it back sometimes. But one shot was all that was ever needed from the thing. Still no one could catch the red head without the crossbow slung over her back, it seemed like it was just another limb now. 

Studying the group Reena looked at James, "I'll stay here, I saw you managed to get a signal flare from your last run. Something shows up, I'll send one off, hopefully I won't have to use it though." In turn she gave a smile, ruffling the kids now beach blond hair that was freed from grime. "Right, you be careful now, ya hear?"

"Ethan, your with me."
James was not surprised in the least that Reena chose Ethan to come with her. She'd rather be in range if something went wrong and she did not trust him a bit. Keep your friends close and enimes closer. He was tempted to tell the guy, but the egarness to help was a great change and he didn't want to ruin it. 

"Not taking the horses today, cause too much noise and they need some rest. Come on, stick close and only do what I do." With that she handed him a knife, and only a knife for protection. "You guys watch yourselves out there, everyone would be wanting supplies now."
And with that, she was gone, patting Johnny on the arm as she and Ethan left to the wilderness.

It was quiet most of the hike. Reena aiming up hill, always trying to stay down wind. Her steps were light, hardly disturbing the world around her. They were far away from the gun shots and flames by the time she decided to speak again. "You ever been hunting before?"
She was getting near game turf. Stopping for a moment near a boulder she looked around, golden eyes surveying everything before finally sitting down, opening a vile of yellow liquid and dabbing it on her clothes. "I know, its gross, but gives you a better chance at not scaring something away. Tip though, never pick a deer in heat, that will get you killed."

She kept watching his eyes, his expression in them. Something had to have been off if he decided to put the team in danger. She couldn't blame him, the man lost his family. But she could not vary well just turn her back on him now that she knew he was willing to go for his own agenda at the drop of a hat. 
Opening her bag she produced a small baggie of squirrel jerky. Biting off pieces and chewing it thoroughly, her head always up, always looking around. It took her a second to offer him some, her mind clicking that he probably forgot to pack some food for himself. 

"You know, you gave James quit the scare." They were alone, no one could step in as she spoke her mind. The red head finally put her goods away, looking at the sky before finally locking her gaze to his. "That kid clung to you like you were a celebrity or something. He almost got himself killed and you leave him?"
Cracking her neck she took a deep breath, resting her elbows on her knees. "Listen, everyone deserves a second chance. You lost parts of your life that no one should have ever had to loose, I'm not going to lie and say I get that cause I don't yet. But if you ever betray my trust in you again, than I'll have to break James's heart and let you go. Cause there are a lot of things I'll do to keep that kid safe and putting him under the watch of people who leave without saying a thing is not one of them"

It was a while till she stood, offering a hand even that held no malice. It was like working with a friend that happened to be your boss, a fine line, a very fine line.
