Marie could hear this stranger's command. Peeking out, she realized this voice belonged to the very person she was so curious about. 'Surely....surely not. In the Dragon's Death he had been a completely different person. Shifty, nervous. This guy's probably more dangerous then all those thugs put together. Oh no!'
They all came at him. Their pathetic battle cries were cut short as Cain went to work, knocking heads, arms, legs, and any other handy body part. (I mean any body part.) Soon, only a few remained, their fellow battlers lay beaten and broken around them. Perhaps the scariest part of the ordeal was the punk that whipped them. He floored all their company and yet remained uninjured. Not a single scratch. Shifting a bit, they acknowledged his power and backed off.
Cain strode towards Marie, his disgust still very apparent on his face. "You. Let's go." She merely sat there, unsure of what to do. Unsure of whether or not fear would let her legs work. Ready to leave, Cain grabbed her wrist and pulled her up. He held her close as they walked, not allowing her to make the mistake of running away. He lead her deep into the safety of the crowd before he said, "What part of town do you live in?" His voice was controlled but one could hear the anger still lingering in the background. She just stood there, wondering why she should tell him where she lived. "I'd say I did you a pretty big favor back there. I really don't want all my work to go to waste because you walk through the wrong parts of town again. Just tell me what part of town and I'll leave you at the edge of the section." His voice clicked in a matter-of-fact fashion. "I-I don't live in town. I followed you 'cause it was on my way out of town." Cain took a step back at this, unsure of what to do with her now. "Well then," His voice now formal and kind. "Do you mind if I escort you through the forest?" Marie just stood there and stared at him, astounded at what he'd just said. 'What's up with this guy?' "I don't want to have saved you only to read that you were eaten by a bear." This furthered her confusion. How could he answer her unspoken question?

Explainations:
*The gang:I've been asked before if these guys were werewolves. Answer-no. Just thugs.
*Other than that...I can't see anything that needs explaining at the moment. Please tell me if you're missing something that I need to explain.
