Keji watched over the group in silence. It was almost an hour later when he gently touched Lyra's arm. "We should go." Catching Esshy's attention as well, the elf stood. When he looked to Sephiroth, he was immediately relieved. The Guardian was healing at a rapid pace - he was back to normal.
Seeing how Sephiroth's gaze lingered on Kiyoshi, Keji interceded immediately by lifting the queen into his own arms. He forgot, though, that he wouldn't be able to touch her for very long. His cold blood made it nearly painful to stay in contact with a surface creature. "Let's go." Keji ignored the irritated expression on Sephiroth's face and watched as the Guardian took the lead. He knew where they were going.
Once Sephiroth's back was turned, Keji swiftly looked to Esshy. The discomfort of holding Kiyoshi was already bothering him to a great extent. It was like standing too close to a fire after being out in the snow - it burned to hold the queen. Offering Kiyoshi out to Esshy, the male smiled grimly. It was obvious that he didn't want Lyra carrying the woman.
A loud hiss drew Keji's attention, and his pupil-less eyes immediately locked on the Guardian. "We cannot afford to draw attention to ourselves," he said as loudly as he dared, glaring at Shara as she crouched and hissed at Sephiroth once again. Surely that sound would carry through the caves. "Be silent, Shara. This isn't the time for your rebellion."
