Brians very aura seemed to change.  His eyes changed to shades of black and his veins grew more prominent.  He stood up and said in a stern voice, "I wont let them hurt you.  Get behind me." He grabbed his violin and listened for the sounds of movement that she had heard.  "There is a time to run, and a time to fight.  Lets go see which one it is now."  He said before walking towards the sounds, glancing back occasionally to make sure she was following.  He wouldnt let anyone hurt her, so if things got out of hand he would tell her to run.  He hoped that wouldnt be neccesary.
