She nearly jumped into his arms getting away from them "Ok, I'm all for a change or scenetry. Let's go"

Ellie noticed Braeden seemed a little put off. "I'm sorry if I was rude. Maybe this place is putting me on edge..." She was actually lying, but it was better than admitting she had a rather coarse demeanor. That's a trait better learned overtime and not during an introduction.
She jumped a little after she felt something scurry at her feet. She pointed her wand down, glad to see it was just a rat. Only a farm girl wouldn't be bothered by a rodent at her feet. Clearly the other crowd wasn't of that mind. "I think we ought to head elsewhere. Hate for this odour to follow us for the rest of the day."
Braeden tried his best not to grin proudly when Caroline nearly jumped on him after seeing the rats; what could he say? He liked playing hero. Especially since... he wasn't much of a hero. More of a cowardly knight, buuuut, let's just keep that 'hero' illusion rolling.
As both girls agreed to head on somewhere a little... brighter and less rodent-friendly, Braeden turned and began to lead the way to what he believed to be the way out.
Two minutes later, he was lost again.
Feeling rather hopeless, the boy turned to Ellie; she seemed to know her way around better than him or Caroline. "Er... which one's the way out again?"
