He was...fast. Faster than she had been expecting, for certain.
But her words were no bluff, and while she did struggle at times to keep up with some of his more impulsive movements, she was never too far out of eyesight. And she watched him. Taking not of the fact that, despite his very lethal weaponry, he seemed more adverse to striking that fatal blow, or going in for the kill shot, than she had initially feared. Granted, he may not have had to smash in that poor person's shins quite so hard....
Most importantly was that, save for the occasional small whimper of surprise as she ran into someone unintentionally, she was quiet. No questions. No cries. Her tears were kept at bay, and she managed to keep her heart in check by reminding herself over and over that this was only supposed to be a game and that any and all damage that would occur wasn't supposed to be happening.
She didn't cry, no, but she certainly didn't look happy when she finally caught up with him not too long after. Eyes still darting about in hopes of a familiar--or at least friendly--face.
