Sage nodded once, catching Grace's eye. Grace and Naruto were two of his closest friends, and he was beginning to feel something... more for the both of them. However, he didn't know how to express it, and he wasn't exactly sure how relationships worked. He never had any experience. Adjusting the straps on his backpack, he pushed himself towards the front of the group where Sasuke, Naruto, Grace, Amelia and Lumina were, pausing to look at the others. "We'll begin our hike over there." He pointed towards the forest, the tall trees looming over them. "Once we reach a suitable place for us to camp out in for tonight, we'll rest. Tonight is going to be a clear night, so there isn't any need to set up the tents. Those of us who brought younger siblings are, of course, in charge of their needs. Are we ready? Good. Let's go." Sage began walking towards the forest, Lumina, Fang, Amelia and Rose following.
Rose tugged on her mother's shirt as they began walking. "Mama, where are we going?" She asked, hugging her stuffed bunny to her chest with one arm. Her large, innocent eyes were focused on Amelia, her short blonde hair swept back into two cute little pigtails.
Amelia smiled down at Rose as they walked along. "We're going somewhere safe, where you don't have to hide from my parents." She said gently, stepping over a few roots carefully. Cookie let out a quiet meow from where she sat on Amelia's shoulders, watching the scenery drift by.
Lumina smiled back at the group. "Hey, if you have any little kids with you, I can take care of them!" She called back, waving at them slightly.

"Nero, you wanna hang out with Miss Lumina?" The little boy smiled and nodded before running up to her. "Lumina! Lumina!"

Thank goodness. He's cute, but exhausting... Mona called out to Lumina. "Hey, if he gets too annoying, bring him back over to me, okay?"
