I sighed yet again, yet this time it was of relief. Though I could sense two figures coming up to me, I decided to feign ignorance and pretend I was a civilian. They would be bound to notice my sword though, so I wouldn't have any luck when they saw me up close. I raked a hand through my mid-length black hair, pacing back and forth. "Filthy forest," I murmured. "Always get lost in this forest trying to pass through." The pair were still approaching, so I sat down with my back turned to them, slouching slightly. I blew a stray strand of hair from my face and shook my head.

As I approached the women, the other woman following next to me, she sat down. I noticed a sword on her waist, and slowed down slightly. I wasn't going to just go rushing towards her if she was dangerous.

A few moments later, we arrived behind her. I coughed slightly, not exactly sure what I was going to say.

When we got closer to the woman, I realized she was carrying a sword. I walked up behind her cautiously, not wanting to cause any trouble.

However, I was not afraid of this stranger. I didn't want to start anything like a fight, but I wasn't afraid to approach her normaly. I was a trained sword fighter, and I had been fighting with swords for as long as I can remember. So, politely, I spoke up.

"Excuse me, miss?" I asked, my voice polite. "My friend and I were just wondering if you knew the way out?"

I rolled my eyes and turned around. They were lost, too? Great lot of help that plan was. "Sorry, but I won't be much help," I told the pair, observing them. They seemed strangely familiar, but then again, I had seen too many people in my travels. Probably some civilians I remembered seeing. I continued. "I'm lost too... and I'm just SICK OF THIS STUPID FOREST!" I yelled, kicking a tree. I was known to have a flaring temper, but rarely did I show it.

I-or..."we"-watched as she started to get a bit angry, then kick a tree. I just stared at her for a moment, then sighed.

"Wonderful. I just love being lost," I muttered, looking around. This forest...it seemed almost endless.

I sighed. Was there no way out of this forest?

"Well, maybe we'd have better chances of finding a way out if we split up." I suggested, thinking it over. "Actually, we'd probably each get even more lost that way..." I said, realizing that I was making no sense. I was probably also making myself look like an idiot in front of these strangers.

"What do you guys think we should do?"

I shrugged. "You being lost isn't my problem, but I suppose since we all are lost we could leave together," I suggested. I was reluctant to go with them, but if they were dangerous it wouldn't be hard to take them out with my sword. "That means we'll have a better chance of geting out of here if you two are fairly intelligent..."

"I agree. I'm my only problem. But I suppose I could help you two," I said, reluctantly. It seemed as though I had somehow roped myself into helping these two.

I nodded sharply, then jerked my head at the woman. "What about you? Coming or not?" I asked, eager to get out of the forest and get cream on the many mosquito bites I had earned myself as a result of being in the forest for so long, without any repellent.

"Of course!" I responded, eager to get out of the forest. I looked around the forest, trying to figure out which direction we would have the most luck with.

"Uhm...Any idea which way we should start off?" I asked, laughing nervously. I wasn't so good at this kind of stuff.
