[Shouto's where he said he would be. He's in his hero outfit, which really just looks like a janitor's uniform with a few extras strapped on for good measure. But he's just gotten his new clothes, he'd rather not have to go scavenging for new ones.

He's scanning around for Mysterious and Keith... only to realize he has no idea what Keith looks like. It's such an obvious oversight...]

[Mysterion notices them stop and suddenly pops up behind Keith. He did say he was good at stealth. He peeks and goes quite. Something is out there. His blue eyes scan for movement but he doesn't see anything. He looks to the older teens with a raised eyebrow. He speaks in a deep whisper.] I don't see anything...

[glaciers]

[Shouto's gaze falls to where Keith was pointing, but whatever was there is long gone now.]

I think it left. [His voice falls to a whisper. Sure it might be gone now, but it's probably not far.]

[lonered]

[A glance behind at the kid. ...okay. Points for stealth. But. Right.]

They're around though. And they know we're here.

[So now they may be the ones being stalked. Good. Good to know. But Keith is ready now, eyes scanning the woods on either side of them. His voice remains pitched low and quiet as well,]

Stay alert.

[i_cant_die]

[This isn't good. Mysterion turns his back on Keith and presses against the Paladin's legs. He can watch the back. His eyes scan the forest. They're being hunted. They need to lure out the wolves. Wolves were carnivores so they ate meat and could smell blood. The ten year old raises one of his fingers to his mouth and bites down, hard enough to break skin. He winces but he's had worse. He lets the blood soak his gloved finger and grabs his staff tight. Fresh blood should lure out the creature.] Come out, come out, wherever you are... [The kid whispers.]

[glaciers]

[Why is this child like this? Sure he said he couldn't die, but on the other hand that's no reason for him to go throwing himself into the line of fire like this.

It's like an even more self sacrificing Midoriya and the thought there is one is patently horrifying to him.]

Don't do that.

[lonered]

He's right...

[Keith agrees, glancing around.] We're not here to use any one of us as bait. We're all in this together.

[And Keith is not planning on letting either of his current companions get eaten by a wolf, thank you.

Or even chewed on, if he can at all help it.]

[i_cant_die]

[Mysterion doesn't look up at the two of them. His eyes scan the forest, searching for the thing hunting them. He keeps his tight hold on the staff as he speaks.] We're being hunted. Blood will make sure it doesn't lose interest. You two said you're both fast and strong and we're a team. I'm putting my trust in you. Keep me alive when the damn thing comes running. It's just a flesh wound.

[glaciers]

[He gives off an annoyed huff, but brings his right foot forward, ready to encase anything that might come near them in ice.]

You're worse than Midoriya. At least he doesn't break his limbs on purpose.

[lonered]

[All right. This is clearly a trap here. Keith takes a breath.] Well, we are a team. So just... trying to make sure we're all on the same page about things. We need to communicate and cooperate, or we're going to wind up in trouble.

[There's enough working against them, right? But okay. Keith will keep an eye on Mysterion and his in-need-of-a-bandaid-finger. But he'll also scan the trees for anything, quiet now, listening. ...there. Movement.]

[i_cant_die]

[Mysterion huffs. He's not THAT bad. Is it? No way. Nevermind his Ultimate Attack is blowing himself up. He's going to just not mention that. He hears the movement but resists turning. His job is to look ahead. But damn are these monsters taking their time.] Come on out, you stupid mutts. We're right here. What are they waiting for?

[glaciers]

[That's a terrible super attack, care about yourself more.

Now Shouto's crouched on the ground, right foot and right hand ready to trap whatever comes.]

Shh. Wait.

[lonered]

[Oh my god no one is blowing themselves or anything else up they're just going to knock a wolf's tooth out.

It's fine.

Keith glances from Mysterion to Shouto and then back, voice a whisper as he speaks.]

...if Mysterion and I flank them and flush them out towards you, can you stop one with the.. uh... freezing?

[How do super powers work? Keith sure doesn't know.]
