"A pleasure to meet and make all your acquaintances." Yuri retorted in a cheery tone. When Shien turned pink in the face, she gave him a coy smile, but when Ayame stepped up to lead, already she was feeling her allegiance of safety shifted toward her now. This seemed like a girl that knew what she was doing, but when Shien boxed......it shifted again. She naturally bowed back toward him and nodded animatedly. "Yes please. I am ready. I have prayed all morning for our safe trek into the wild."

The first half mile's worth of walking was safe and easy for the most part. Aside from the occasional chirp of a grasshopper, it was only the sound of birds and the smell of foliage that stood out. However, things would take a turn for the creepy when the trash started to disappear and rocky surfaces began to smooth out, but in exchange for an easier and less smelly walkway, more trees would happen. In fact, the trees were becoming so tightly packed together, the canopies overhead were forming shadows that were shielding out the sunlight. By the time they had walked a good one hundred feet, the four of them would be shrouded in darkness. Some seconds just before they were surrounded by that darkness though, a handful of pebbles were thrown at the back of Yuri's head, which caused her to yelp out loud. "Ahh!!! Hey! Who did that..." She whimpered while dusting off the back of her neck and kimono. Barely even a minute after that, moderately sized rock tagged her at the small of her back and Yuri cried out even louder. "OW!!!" She sniffed back a snob, hugging her box while she turned away from Shien looking around a bit spooked now.
