<br/>Dani spins towards the sudden snapping and growling noise, her eyes widening with a sudden flare of adrenaline. She fumbles into her purse, snatching out her mace and holding it before her like a shield as she begins to back down the trail towards the lake, breathing fast, her green eyes snapped wide. She scans the forest foliage wildly, obviously having no clear idea where the sound came from. "H-hello" she calls "Whose there?"<br/><br/>She stumbles slightly as she backs down the trail, letting out a soft yelp. Blushing and squaring her shoulders, she shouts out "I have a whole fucking can of mace right here!" She glances over her shoulder at the trail behind her, backing towards the voices and people near the lake a bit faster, her hands quivering slightly. She chews her lip ring nervously, glancing up at the fading light ... she's not clear how far she is from the lake by trail, but she shouts "Hey, anyone at the lake? There's a... something here!"<br/><br/>She's backing swiftly down the trail, listening for any further sounds, occasionally stumbling over roots ... she looks about half ready to decide she's imagining things - but the other half looks ready to take off running through the woods for the lake, winding trail be damned.
