Reno wasn't far off when he heard the frustrated cries of the boy, but he was dealing with a particularly large crab at the time and could only spare a glance that way at first. He was relieved, therefore, when he finally took down his monster and turned back to the boy to find others had gathered around to help him.

The Turk almost didn't bother after that but then he realized all three of them were just kids. The older one looked more sturdy, sure, but Reno was probably close to twice his age and--damnit, he had that responsible feeling creeping up on him again. Well, at least Tseng wasn't around to berate him for it.

Reno dashed in with a controlled burst of lightning that crackled around the group and stunned any surrounding crabs that were starting to crawl back up towards the still group of boys. Hopefully he didn't sting any of the kids either. He was used to it but if there were any puddles nearby it made it a little harder to control his electricity when he flung it around like that.

"Yo! You guys done standing around chatting?" he said as he went to pick up the smaller boy on the ground. "Time to move it before they get back up!"
