Jazdia's horse barely moved a few distances when Kaito asked. "[color=#93FFFF]”What do you mean in trouble? What did she say, do you have any intel on their situation? Did they run into an obvious trap based on intel too good to be true? ”[/color]

[color=ec008c]"She said nothing important, the usual."[/color] Jazdia pulled the reins a bit harder than usual, causing her mount to slightly recoiled in protest. She wasn't an animal lover sort, but after a gentle tap on the neck, the beast had calmed down. 

[color=ec008c]"From what I heard, Matilda was trying to force an entry into a building or trying to open something. She triggered a tripwire or god knows what I guess. Explosion ensued. The comms stopped working after that."

Jazdia nodded at the hunter, who had expressed his intention to remain here. [color=ec008c]"Good Idea. Tell the bear that we are regrouping with Matilda and to... uh stay here until we returned. Or whatever."  [/color]

Seeing the doctor has already joined them, the party started their journey back to Pesti. Although time was against them, they did not force their steeds to gallop and opted for a more steady pace. They would need the horses in top condition on their way back to Fanghorn. Hopefully.

Riding side by-side, Jazdia noticed the gloom on Kaito's face. [color=ec008c]"You don't seem very happy. Mind sharing it, little fox?" [/color]
