Seeing the boy in front of her nod, Terra's racing heart calmed just a bit. He was scared, body trembling as he looked to her. But then again, with the others looking for him, his life was at risk. Who wouldn't be afraid of such a thing? He was helpless and without a weapon to defend himself. Not to say he wasn't dangerous. He likely know how to fight in some shape or fashion, otherwise he wouldn't have been put into that battle. In a way, the fear on his face reminded her of herself, how scared she was with all of this. Normally when she was scared, her brother would comfort her and let her know everything was going to okay, but now he was...

She didn't need to think about that right now, least she start crying again. She took a settling breath and kept her gaze on the boy in front of her, who in turn asked her a question as well, [b]“You are too… right?”[/b]

Hearing that, she swallowed and slowly nodded, "Yes. Very much so." Why wouldn't she be, when faced with the unknown of everything. Her brother was dead. There were Lunairans being held captive in the caves, ones that could very well be dangerous. And who knew if there were Lunairans besides this group that knew about their location? There were so many unknown factors and she was scared for her friends and her home. For all she knew, within weeks, or even days, everything she held dear could be gone and there was nothing she could do about it.

"War is....a scary thing." She mentioned quietly, shifting slight from her kneeling position to sit there on the cave floor, her gaze turning back to him, "I don't like it. I don't like seeing people die, no matter who they are." She mentioned and then glanced over her shoulder to the small crevice she had come from. The lower parts of the river used by her people were unseen thanks to the cave walls, leaving this place and them completely hidden to the eyes of her fellow survivors. She looked back to him, "Ryan told everyone a dangerous Lunairan escaped, and to kill on sight." She glanced down the gun in her hands and then moved it, but perhaps not to the place the boy might have thought. She set the gun down beside her rather than keeping it in her gasp, close enough in case he tried to attack, but not in a threatening manner, "I don't think that's right." She looked to him again, "You're afraid, running for your life. You shouldn't be killed for that."

She paused before she spoke again, "I don't think Lunairans are evil. There's a few other people in these caves that feel the same. We all know that peace between humans and Lunairans is possible. Cassie and Serix, the blonde girl and her Lunairan husband...or, you call them mates don't you?...those two are proof that peace between humans and Lunairans is possible." And of course, all of their parents are proof of that as well, but she left that out. She didn't know this boy well enough to give out such important details to their people, not wanting him to use the fact they are half Lunairan against them should he manage to get out of the caves.

"I'm not going to tell the others you're here. I've....seen enough death today to last a life time." She paused, taking a deep breath, "You...should be safe here. It's against our rules to come up into this part of the cave, the river being too dangerous up here. So you shouldn't be found." With that, she shifted slightly so that she was a little closer, but still with a few feet between them, sitting on her knees. She reached out her hand in the normal human greeting. Though seeing his confusion, she nodded to her hand, "It's a greeting." She knew this was dangerous. That he could very easily grab her hand and jerk her into the river for her to drown. But, something inside her told her such a thing wouldn't happen, and hopefully he wouldn't think such a thing of her either, considering she could have just shot him rather than struggle trying to get him into the water. 

She waited and if he took her hand, she moved it slowly so as to not frighten him more, moving it up and down in a hand shake, "My name is Terra."
