As soon as Nathan spots the Mankey, he hears a sharp sounding "BITE!" echoing around the area.  "What the...was that Vincent?  It sounded like it was coming from that direction...wait, but then that would mean...Ventus, we need to move, NOW!"  The appearance of the wild mankey and the resounding cry of Vincent's command have brought Nathan back to his senses.  He starts running in the direction of Vincent's voice and away from the mankey, but also tries to keep an eye on Ventus to make sure he follows.  

Action: Run towards Vincent and away from Mankey.  If Ventus does not follow, stop and return next to him.

At this point, Ralts is unable to focus on anything but the negative emotions coming from the direction of Mt. Molten's base.  He fidgets, he stares at and out the window, he whimpers slightly...but what's a little Ralts going to do in this situation without his trainer to give him orders?

Watching as Nathan was getting more and more worried, Ventus was just about to stop and comfort him. 'Whatever is out their in the woods is driving him to paranoia, so the more quickly we get out of the woods, the better,' he thought, obviously very worried about the young trainer's mental state. Just as he was about to tell Nathan that he knew the way back (He memorized the trail they were taking, in case they got lost like right now), a ball of fur burst forth from the trees, revealing itself to be a Mankey. It appears that this was there unseen voyeur that was stalking them, and it looked like it wanted to get to know a little too personally now!
 
At the same time, he heard the distinct voice of Vince crying out 'BITE!' from far East of their current position. 'Lady Luck favors us today, for better and worse,' Ventus ruely thought, watching the Mankey carefully as he slowly backed away from it toward the direction of Vince's voice. When Nathan screamed at him to run and booked it himself in that direction, though, Ventus silently cursed to himself, and he began to sprint after Nathan, covering his rear from attack. Hoping to distract the irate Mankey, he throws the prism he was carrying in his hand just in front of it!
