Zero stopped and turned around when he heard the commotion behind him. He sighed and raised a hand in the air toward them. A trail of ice made its way from him, and built up into an icy wall between them. "Your fight is not with each other, stop this! You continue this and neither of you will get him." He paused and turned towards the wendigo. "Let him have the grey crayon, help me get the girl to safety and i'll help you get some real food. He probably won't taste good anyways." He said as he motioned towards the Puppeteer.
The Wendigo yelps loudly as her legs where lashed but she kept at it with her attacks
Smile ran over to Isabella watching as C.C. and the wendigo ripped each other apart. Smile didn't like how no one was watching Puppeteer very closely.
Criss-Cross heeded the nowise guy's words and stood still, statue-like. Then he slowly turned his head towards the ice guy. (Zero.) "I thank you." he said, giving a slight bow. "Sometimes my insanity takes over without my permission. I also apologize." He saw Smile lope over to Isabella. Then he turned towards the Puppeteer, his red eyes glowing like embers.
Isabella smiles painfully at Smile, holding one arm tightly with the other hand. "I-I'm fine…" He voice was faint.
Smile whimpered - he didn't like it when Isabella was hurt.
Isabella smiles slightly, moving her hand to pet Smile. When she moves her head, blood drips from a wound.
The Wendigo drove downward toward the guy, skull opened wide but misses him and bites down on the Puppeteer's neck
Puppeteer writes but hisses.
Smile licks Isabella's hand while watching the Puppeteer from the corner of his eye. Smile feels worried.
The Wendigo rips upward on Puppeteer's throat
Isabella giggles slightly. "I-I'll be ok Smile…worse has happened…" She winces.
Zero looked back at isabella frowned under his mask. "C'mon, lets get you out of here." He looked down at Smile. "They can handle this. let's get her to safety first." He was also a bit worried about the wendigo and if it had listened to him at all, but his first priority was getting Isabella away from the battle and away from the Puppeteer.
Smile followed Zero and Isabella. He knew they were right but he was still concerned about the puppeteer and glanced back at the fight going on behind him every so often.
Isabella holds her arm, trying to hide the tears that were falling.
Wedigo was writhing around, her skull still fastened tight to the Puppeteer's throat
Smile licks Isabella's tears - hoping to cheer her up.
Zero winced, noticing his own wounds from where the strings had cut him through his glove. he hid his hand in his pocket. Despite trying to hide them, Zero noticed Isabella's tears. "Hey, don't cry. Everything will be okay."
Isabella giggles at Smile, then looks up at Zero. "Nothing is ever ok…"
Smile noticed Zero wince and sniffed at his pocket that smelled like blood. Then he checked up on Isabella again.
Zero sighed. "Maybe so, but it's always good to have hope that maybe things will be soon." He noticed smile sniff his pocket and edged away a little, then focused back on Isabella.
"Let me rephrase that…nothing is ever ok when the physopath who brought you back to life is trying to kill you at the moment…"
"Oh.. I'm sorry." He awkwardly cleared his throat. He decided not to press the matter any further.
Wendigo huffs, her jaws still clamped around the Pupeteer's limp neck
Smile hears rustling in the bushes. He looks at Zero and Isabella to make sure they'll be alright before taking off after the noise. He darts through the woods and kills a rabbit before beginning to run back across the woods towards the others with the limp rabbit carefully held in his mouth.
