Larissa's shoulders rose and she became extremely annoyed, quickly getting down from the branch. Amazingly, she didn't injure herself or fall at all.
She remained silent for a moment and then frowned. Larissa felt like crying. She was no longer angry, just very very very confused.
"My parents and I..." She began, her voice shook with tears, "Are not criminals!!!" She stated this loudly, not as loudly as one of her shrieks, but loud enough to make it clear that this was what Larissa believed with all of her heart.
"How dare they..." She whispered, now a little more angry.

Skye jumped the 15 foot drop with relative ease, landing with her knees bent. Wow...I've never seen Larissa so sad..
The archer put a hand firmly on her shoulder. "I have no idea what your parents are truly like, but I do know one thing; I believe your no criminal. Your a friendly, genuine person and no matter your heritage, you'll still be you." She smiled sympathetically.
Did that mush just come out of my mouth?

Larissa looked at Skye with determined eyes, then back at Lumino. She turned to them, her fists clenched and her arms slightly bent.
"I'm going to find the truth about my parents. I'm going to travel far and...I'm guessing a lot of people are going to try and get in my way. If you want to join me for whatever reason you have or if you have nothing better to do, say so now." Her voice was clear, forceful, almost leader-like. She didn't act this way often.
She waited patiently for an answer, looking back and forth between the independant archer and the youthful mage.

"Well..." Lumino though about his reasons for leaving Alexia and her group, he had wanted to go to Bern, to confront his brother. But these two needed his help. They wouldn't last too long alone, and he really did want to believe that Larissa was innocent.
"I will help you Larissa." He smirked. "With the both of you around, I doubt I will ever get bored."

"I'll try to do my best in keeping people out of your way, even if it is from me. Ready for adventure!" She saluted in a strangely humorous way, out of character and in the moment.
She smirked back at Lumino. "Oh really? What's so entertaining about us?" She elbowed Larissa in an attempt to put her in a more carefree, energetic mood like she normally was.
It feels strange when Larissa's not her usual loud and squealing self.

Larissa became teary-eyed and smiled brightly. Without thinking, she pulled them both into a hug and squeaked through her tears, "Thank you so much! You guys are WONDERFUL!!!"
Never before had anyone, besides her adoptive father and sister, helped Larissa so much and then decide to continue to do more for her.
She let go and wiped her eyes. Still smiling she began to speak, "I promise I'll pay you back. Whatever you want, I swear!"

Skye gasped as she was pulled into a bear hug along with Lumino, getting the brains squeezed out of her by the now cheerful mage.
Once Larissa let them go she took a deep, shocking breath. "Just...don't do that again." She regained her composure and fixed her shifted strap. The archer's usual indifferent expression settled on her face, but it now had a hint of determination.

"Well then ladies. Where should we head to next? Do you have any leads?" Lumino asked, massaging his ribs, sore from the fall and the hug both. He gazed out over the fields, watching the blue sky start to darken.

Skye ran a finger through her frizzing bangs. "We were heading to the city thats supposedly that way," she pointed to her left, "but any place is good fodder for information." The raven-haired girl looked up at the darkening sky. "Maybe we should look for a place to camp out. We won't get far before it becomes too dark."
I just hope these woods are safe. After that encounter with those cavaliers, anything might leap out and attack us. She started to look for a place with more cover in case of rain.

Larissa gave a weary face, "I say we make camp! So much has happened today, I don't think I can stand for much longer!"
And she was hungry. She was sure the others were hungry too. Larissa had an idea.
"Anyone hungry?"

"A bit." Lumino responded. He hadn't eaten well since he had gotten here, since he had been robbed shortly after setting foot on the plains of Sacae. "Why, what is your idea?"

Larissa smiled a smile that made it look like she would giggle, "Well, in truth I am quite the cook!" She paused as she looked around, "If you could make a fire, Lumino and Skye, you could hunt something, I could cook it up and get some delicious herbs! You know, nobles have told meeee that I would make a fine chef!"
Nobles- as in her adoptive father.

"Make a fire?" Lumino glanced sideways at his tome. Then shook his head, he shouldn't use magic for everything. "Sure, I can take care of that." He turned to Skye "Good luck with your hunting then, just shout if their are any problems you two."

Skye nodded and dissappeared into the woods quickly. She uncertainly placed an arrow on her bowstring as she went along. Um...how am I supposed to do this exactly?..dang, at home I was always served my food..
The archer flinched at a nearby rustling, which was coming from a cluster of bushes. She glanced down to find a brown rabbit, staring alert at her. It wiggled its nose innocently. She pursed her lips. How can I kill something like that?...well if its for food... Her hand shook as she shot the arrow, causing it to land at the rabbits feet. It sprinted away into the underbrush immediately after.
She growled in frusteration. Maybe I should find something dumb and easy to catch..like a chicken or something..
"Heh," She muttered, pressing on.

Larissa began to prepare a place for the fire to go. She lined an area of dirt with rocks making a circle and gather some twigs, placing them in the center.
"Okay, Lumino! Start a fire! I'm going to get some herbs!" Larissa grinned as she began to leave, looking back once, "Just don't burn anything down!"
