And all of a sudden, the people who were hiding come out of the woodwork. Of course, Snow had been so distracted trying to peer through the darkness, he hadn't really noticed anyone approaching until a girl yelled right behind him. ...Okay, he could secretly admit that startled the hell out of him. He jerked and whipped around in time to get a bright light right in the face. "Whoa!"

He immediately winced and threw a hand up to try and block out the light. He couldn't get a real good look at them, but it sounded like a young girl and a guy. Neither of them were telling him put his hands up or get down on the ground or anything, so he was gonna take a wild guess and say they weren't soldiers. Actually, it sounded more like he'd been the one to startle them. Or at least the girl. Whoops.

"Sorry. Didn't think anyone else was wandering around." He was trying to sound lighthearted despite the apology. No hard feelings, you know? He was also still squinting, trying to get a good look at them. "You guys okay?"
