Better to be hurt by the truth than comforted by a lie -

[OOC: APOLOGIES I made the mistake of saying Abathur was a spider. So I went back and edited it, he is in fact a kitten rn]
He hadn't been too close in the least. The jaguar had been tending to minor things. Patrolling borders, marking them, looking for vantage points, and eventually returning to camp to keep eye on what was happening. He didn't like to stray too far for too long. Never knowing when danger would strike, he wanted to be near to make sure the children were safe.
Especially Aine. So when his exceptionally sharp ears heard his name being called in utter emergency by the very little girl he felt the need to protect, he stopped what he was doing immediately and sprinted in the direction.
He had no time to wind around trees and instead allowed himself to become intangible, bolting through trees like a onyx ghost. He held no sound.
"Aine!, he called in worry as he neared. It didn't take long for him to arrive on the scene. Still not a fast as he would like.
"Aine? Are you okay? his heart was pounding more in fear of her injury than the sudden distance he had crossed.
Eyes would look at one unholy creature and two children. Both he had never met before. But one smelled of Pitt and the other was covered in dust from the desert. A kitten. A little housecat.
Instantly he thought of the poor child's hardship. He looked at Vox then at the small cat again, even he recognized exhaustion from the distance.
"Taking him to camp? The boy needs water, fast."
