While Ares listened to the group talk, he became a little confused. From what he understood, he was one of 'the other kuhnas' that would be going with the two Khimeras and the Garudor. He had no problem with that, now only if he could remember their names... The one with the fire pattern was Fimantra. He hadn't caught the other's names though.
As the one group well, grouped up, Ares got a good idea of who he was with. He went a little closer so they wouldn't have to yell to each other. "Well, then, I guess we're the other group?" he said with a smile. "I'm Ares, by the way," he added, looking at the others. "I have a horrible time at remembering names, what were yours?" He felt a little embarrassed, having to ask them their names, but he needed to know who he was talking to.
As he waited for the others he looked around some more. He hoped they wouldn't get into too much trouble... Well, he didn't mind a little trouble, but he didn't want to die or anything.

[Sappheara]

The Gyrraptor bobbed his head up and down as he waited. His super sensitive hearing heard insects and diurnal creatures doing their daily business. Azul watched the second group form. "So... Stella, Chaotic, Zeru, X, the Wynd Kuhna and I are going as a group?" He turned to look at the Wynd Kuhna. "You haven't given us your name." The mist from the waterfall engulf the land around them. "I believe our group should get going." Azul shook his feathered head, as his clawed toe continued to tap the ground.

[SpringsSong]

Arlür blinked as she looked at the Gyrraptor, realizing that he was correct--she'd never once spoken her name to the group.  After a few moments, she smiled as she dipped her head slightly.

"Arlür--or, if you prefer, Dawnwish.  I don't care which name you call me so long as it's one of those two," she said, dipping her head again.  "I'm terribly sorry--I thought I had mentioned my name before."

She had honestly been thinking of saying that her name was unimportant, but considering she was going to be working in a group with these people, she decided against it.

Stella saw that the Gyrraptor, Azul, seemed to be wary of Chaotic, which was probably a healthy approach towards her sister. Still, she didn't want him to be scared or anything. "Don't worry too much about Chaotic", she tried to assure him. "She might be totally wrong in the head, but I've spent as long as I can remember watching her and beating her down when she tries anything funny." Well, considering that she had amnesia, 'as long as she could remember' wasn't all that long at all, but Azul didn't need to know that. "And I'm sure X will be a great help as well." The Paragon seemed indeed more than able to take on Chaotic and together, they'd probably be able to keep her in check.

She turned to the Paragon and nodded. "I'll take your word, then. Chaotic might be my sister, but she is also my enemy. If you feel she threatens the group, do not hesitate to act. Neither will I, actually."

"...." Chaotic was still silent, but bounced up and down all around the group, obviously getting restless. Staying in a spot for too long wasn't really chaotic, after all.

Stella noticed and agreed with the others who had suggested to move. "Yes, we should get going. We'll be nothing but prey if we just stand here and if we have to fight anyway, we might as well try to get something out of it. I think I heard these creatures we're worried about keep treasures in their nests? Then again, I might be wrong."

[Soriana]

Risk had already assumed leadership over his own group--even if it was strictly subconscious. His group was rather small, and their cargo explicitly more precious, which is why Risk was there in the first place. "If there's nothing more that needs to be said while remaining stagnant..." he gazed longingly into the trees. Treasure and Turkezillas and trouble, oh my! He could practically taste the adventure that was about to unfold.

"My name is Nephthys. Triskelion Nephthys. Call me Risk."

[Thunder]

(OOC: Can someone quickly list which users are in our group? That way I'll have an easier time sorting out our group's posts from the other's. I kinda got swamped by all the new posts, soo...)

While the discussion was going on, Adey was just gazing around idly and yawning in slight boredom. She had no input on the group decisions since she didn't have any ideas. And she didn't really care either. So there were no objections when she was thrown into the group with the two Khimeras and the Kuhnas.

"So...I guess this is our group," she said, looking at everyone who was still present. "Uh...sorry, what are you names again? I was spacing out a bit... Risk and...what? I'm Adey, if you didn't hear the first time." She felt a bit awkward and started to preen the feathers on her shoulder.

[Firetra]

Firemantra hatted to listen to all this talk. It was just waisting prescious time that they could be using to get out of this forest and/or finging treasure. "Oh come on people!" He yelled/roared " Are we going to go or not! Frankly I'd like to get out of this dang forsaken forest with others or not! So are we going with the first Idea or are we going alone!?" He yelled. He then panted and waited for a respose. Even though all that yelling might have woken up all of these Turkezillas in the surrounding area he didn't care. " So what do you say before we get eaten up by all of these creatures."

[Redd]

(Yup, yup~ So you have... Krypto, Shieba, FireHeart, Elektra and Sappheara in one group and Soriana, Chayden, Thunder, Jobiehanna and Firetra in the other. I'm sure that's right. But if I'm wrong, someone correct me?)

"I say... uh. You can go alone if you really don't like waiting around for groups to be sorted out." The Paragon wasn't trying to be mean, just plain factual. It was quite simple to him, really. "There's just a tiny bit of confusion, that's all."

"Oh! Pleased to meet you Arlür." The Paragon initially stumbled over the pronunciation of the name, but quickly picked himself up. "So... there's quite a few tracks to follow here. There's some that head east, and some that head north. Well... they're the freshest ones. I do think anyway. If you want... we can take the northerly ones and your group can take the easterly tracks?"

X was talking to the group as a whole, but when he addressed the second group, his eyes were more set on Risk. He seemed to know what he was doing and was keen to be off. He'd hopefully give a straight answer.

"So... from memory. Our group was... Zuru at the front scouting. And the rest of us as a group, since we aren't a big enough group for a formation like the other ones. Unless you want to stick to the front scouting with Zuru, Arlür." He replied, calmly trying to get things sorted before heading out.

[Soriana]

Triskelion had to roll his eyes at this. So he's one of those, eh? Talk about a liability. If this were a company mission, my head would be on the chopping block. This cat wouldn't survive one day of training.

Presently, he directed his speech at his own group, none of whom had responded in a while. Reluctant, obviously, but brave nonetheless. "I'll assume navigational as well as tactical duties unless one of you can provide me with a resumé that'll knock my socks off--and I don't wear socks. Firemantra, it might be prudent if you take up the rear and cover us. We'll need all the brawn we can get at this point. And the rest of you... don't wander off."

(I already messaged the list to Thunder, guys, don't worry. And yes, Krypto, that's it, with the exception of Sappheara--she's with you guys--unless someone wants to switch at the last minute. XD)

[jobiehanna]

Oh dear, he was in a group with a loud, get-to-it guy. He shook his head slightly at his misfortune. He hoped the guy didn't boss them around, he hated it when he was bossed. If directed, now that was a different story. When yelled at, he liked to yell back. But in this situation he held his tongue. He didn't want to get into an argument with someone much bigger than he was.
He nodded to Risk with a friendly smile. This guy seemed to know what he was doing, he had a good head on his shoulders, or so it seemed. He made a good leader for their little group. "Nice to meet you all, I'm Ares," he added his name again for the sake of the garudor, Adey, who hadn't caught their names in the first place. He couldn't blame her for it though, the same thing happened to him.
"I'm not going anywhere," he said, he knew better than that. "I guess I'll just follow, then?" He looked around, pale eyes watching for any sign of turkzillas. He couldn't wait until they found some kind of treasure.

[Soriana]

He glanced down at the little kuhna, and him a slight smile. At least someone here was agreeable. "Mmhmm. We're going to... ah..." Risk struggled for a realistic way to describe it without revealing any of his agency's classified information. "We're going to make a sandwich. I'll be up front, Firemantra--if he doesn't have anything better to do--will best serve us in back, and you two will be between us. Are you three objectionable to this?"

[Shieba]

Stella twitched. The Khimera, with his loud yelling, had managed to startle Chaotic, who had been happy in her la-la-land until then and was now, instead of bouncing in circles around them, slowly jumping up to the group. "We'll get eeeeeaten?" she asked, still sounding rather happy (which Stella noticed with relief, even though she already missed the silence). "Or maybe I should eeeeeat you all! Yay! That would be chaotic!"

"You can't eat us all", Stella sighed. "Not even you could do that. That wouldn't be chaotic anyway. It would be boring, doing the same to all of us."

Chaotic thought about it for a moment and then nodded and continued to jump. Stella already felt like she had aged ten years in the last few minutes. It was just so much of a risk to have Chaotic around others. Still, she forced herself to listen to all introductions instead of only watching her sister. "It's nice to meet you all", she said. She was, secretly, glad that she wasn't in a group with the loud Khimera, who was probably able to get Chaotic into a mood swing soon, but he also made her wish that they'd get over with all the planning soon and leave.

"I'm Chaotic!" Chaotic suddenly sang. "I'm Chaotic and I'm chaotic! I can do amaaaaaazing things!" She nodded. "Things you have neeeeever seen before! Look! Look! I'll do an amaaaaazing thing! I'll...I'll...I'll...I'll roll around in the mud!" And she proceeded to do just that. "Yay! I'm here! And rolling around in the mud! Here and rolling around in the mud!"

Stella just sighed and watched her sister getting her fur dirty. "I agree with X. We should go and follow the tracks", she said to return to the matter at hand.

[Elektra]

"Before we leave, if I might, would it hurt to make sure we know each other's names?  Or at least the names of your fellow companions.  I'm Zeru, sentinel and master at the place I live in."  Turning to the Kihmera, he eyed him.  Sure, he was accompanied by brute strength, but there was something else about him that made him even more threatening.  Of course, it was obvious that he didn't totally approve of Zeru's own abilities, but that would just make it more fun when he came out victorious.  

He had noticed, though, that the Garudor hadn't said anything through the whole conversation.  Walking over to the equally sized avian, he said, "If you are okay with going along with the plans, perhaps you would be willing to use your wings to look ahead before we start off?  That way, we could at least choose separate paths, and cover more area.

[Sappheara]

Azul watched the others silently, as he continued to tap his toe. The loud Khimera, the one, if he remembered correctly was named Firemantra roared. The Gyrraptor was curious to why the Khimera was inpatient in the first place. It really didn't matter to him one way or other. What matter was how he startled Chaotic. Eat us? Chaotic was an interesting creature. Azul had never meet someone like her before. He continued to watch everyone, as he started to bob his head up and down. Everything was getting organized, slowly but surely. The Gyrraptor remained quiet as he watched and listened.

[jobiehanna]

"I'm fine with it," Ares said, looking around at their little group. Everyone else had already set out, yet they were still discussing the subject. He was getting restless, he wanted to get going. He looked around some more, anxious. He felt awkward, just standing there, looking around. He sniffed the air, scenting for any sign of the large birds. He remained quiet, listening to what else the group was talking about.
