Once Ino was up, Wizard was careful to hold her hand, grabbing for her again as soon as she started to get out of range. Again, it was an action he was familiar with for a woman to want to force herself to be strong even when she was hurt. While he didn't want her to think that he was looking down on her for being weak, he wanted to make sure she didn't get hurt any worse than before.

With a quick swoop, Garuda had returned to the pair and flapped ahead of them, waving around a bit before going off the way he'd taken the previous group. At the very least, the boy could end up in the same place as the rest of his family, if they were still around. Wizard held the boy close against his chest, adjusting his hold from time to time to remind himself that the other was still there. Maybe deactivating his forms would be less intimidating, but he didn't want to chance being caught off guard.
