I know you're afraid, but I'm going to give you options here. I have to go back to the office soon and I need to know you will be alright; you can stay here and I'll try to find the rest or you can come to the office with your dogs until we can locate Heine.
[one of the pups tries to climb up hijikata's lap now-] Either choice you make, I'll protect you and yours.
