He hadn't expected Orochi to get angry at just the mention of a fight. Hide's ears perked up and he frowned. "Uh, you know that one pack that Hua mentioned? The Saints?" he asked, offering a sheepish smile. "It was a couple of them. I probably should've run away, but I didn't."

He huffed out a soft laugh, still watery. "Uh, kind of? I'm better now, pretty much. I might have some cool scars though." On his scruff and on his thigh where he'd gotten hit, and maybe on his flank too. "I did pretty good, I think. My head just hurt too bad to, like, fight anymore. So they took me to their territory." He smiled a bit. "They weren't so bad, actually, when they stopped picking at me and stuff. They fed me and let me rest and let me go when I asked. Donovan walked me to the forest and told me where to go."
