[Midnight2902]

Midnight's suspicion began to grow " oh, okay..." She said

Eminence Faustine Yowlumne

Hearing the screeches as well, Eminence readied herself. Instinctively placing her hand on Andel, she was caught off-guard when her leader killed them off before she did. And she wasn't the only one surprised. Little Miss-Face-First was just as surprised as she was. "Oh! That must be your semblance... Cool semblance." She muttered, nodding to herself. Eminence just looked at her confused. 'Semblance? Highly unlikely...' she thought, walking closer to her leader.





"N-no, that's not my semblance... I just have good hearing." their leader said, trying to change the subject. "Oh, okay." LMFF replied, curiosity evident in her voice. "That must be some hearing you have then." Eminence told him as they continued their walk. "It's almost the equivalent of faunus hearing." she added, kicking a rock that wasn't visible to human eyes. "I'd be surprised if you had night vision, too." Eminence let out, laughing at her own joke.

Obsidain continued to walkwith her group, more towards the front. There team leader, Aqua, had thrown something and taken out a few Draculas. But Obsidian didn't ackowledge his acomplishment, and pretended it didn't happen continuing there short travels.


Her companions had some idle chit chat, but she was in a more quiet mood, simply bouncing on her steps, "I have night vision!" She piped up happily, turning towards them, "I can see the heat signatures," she said in a bit of a cheerful ramble trying to take attention away from Aqua, she didn't really think much into it, but she had her suspicions about him.


"Ooo!! Ooo! The door is probably in one of those groups of Dracuals!" She suggested, having no evidence to back it up and simply giving a giggly guess.


@AnimeNerd5678 @Aryel @InvaderTennTallest

 

[AnimeNerd5678]

Aqua, however, didn't laugh at Eminence's joke. A few beads of nervous sweat rolled down his face. I-I almost got exposed as a Faunus. I really need to be more careful... Aqua thought nervously in his head. He hears what Obsidian said and looked at her. "That's highly unlikely." A small silence occurred. "... But it wouldn't hurt to check. ... Well, it would kinda hurt, considering these are Draculas we're dealing with."

Ebony was bent over Pascal, simply looking him over seeing what she could possibly do to help him. She nodded her head slightly, "Yeah, probably not.." She said quietly, picking up the cane that lay next to Pascal. Ebony had to tear at the hem of her dress taking a couple strips off the black cloth off the bottom to brace the cane securly against his arm. She laid the pieces of fabric flattly on her lap, and then Pascals arm over top of the fabric next to the cane before tying secure knots.


She gave herself a curt nod, "That'll have to do for now.." She stood up and dusted herself off before picking up her little companion in her arms, giving her a sense of comfort. Ebony paced a little bit, trying to wear off the nerves she was feeling. Her eyes trailed around, "We should be on the roof.. To board the air ship.." She stated matter of factly questioning where they were if it wasn't the roof.

[GasMaskie]

Exhaustion wracked the young man's body, followed by a wave of intense pain from his left arm. It was almost as if his entire body was made of lead. He could not find the strength needed to open his eyes, let alone his body. He found himself suddenly doubting his own existence? What had happened? Who was he?

"Little Lamb."

​

Ah, that's right. He was Pascal Nuage, a young hunter. And he had been trapped in an underground maze with his teammates. There was a colossal Grimm lurking about, and he had decided that the best course of action was to lure it away on his own. But after that, the memories had stopped. Someone was carrying him now. He could barely make out words. 'Roof...', 'Air ship'. His perception was slowly improving, though he was in no condition to be moving on his own. He could feel the blood caking his forehead and the various bruises that he had mysteriously acquired.


Regardless, there would be no more danger with the Goliath done. Team Perl's trial by fire had been cleared, though perhaps not in the way that the headmistress had intended. Straight ahead of Team PERL was the door with the pawn's slot - the Goliath's frenzy had crushed the walls between them. Would they be the first to finish? Or had the other teams already finished their challenges? Regardless, all that stood between them and their destiny now was a single door.

"I'm okay," Cinder said, getting up slowly to make sure she was still in one piece. She looked past Azurra to see what Ochre was up against - just a few Grimm struggling in back. They likely wouldn't be much of a problem for him, and if they were, that was what they had another, fresher team member for. That fall had taken a lot of aura out of her. So, they would kill the last of the Grimm and probably Ochre would work with the keyhole, and then it would be time to head back to the center room.


She looked back at Azurra, away from Ochre and past the burning, torn-apart and dissolving Grimm. "Thank you for helping me. I know I can rely on someone now." Kicking a piece of dissolving Grimm-flesh aside, she walked in Ochre's direction and surveyed the area for any more potential dangers.


She needed a new, Dust-filled t-shirt.


@Dream Killer @Quiet @Dendyne

 

[Cruor Flumine]

Cruor nodded. "Yeah, hopefully there won't be any more surprises hiding here for us." He said, running the tip of his blade along the wall. He hardly got a chance to fight at all before this damned maze and he'd rather not have to face some huge grimm. "Regardless, let's hope this isnt some dead end."

[Midnight2902]

Midnight sighed " lets continue on she said as she walked ahead


@AnimeNerd5678 @Syrina @Aryel

Eminence Faustine Yowlumne

"They could be behind them.. It would sort of hurt to check, though. Just like what he said." She motioned to their leader. "But by the looks of it, I think we can handle a small enough group, if Aqua's moves are anything to go by. And I can see well in the dark with my being a faunus, so that helps." she added, poking at her leader with Andel. She had to admit, his moves back then with the Draculas were up to par with hers.


They continued their little trek until Eminence could see a rather large group of Draculas close by. "Well shit." she murmured, motioning to the others to stop. "Dracula swarm at 12o'clock." She told them, placing a Dust crystal into both Andel and Aaibel's hilt. "Time to get down and dirty, guys."

@AnimeNerd5678 @InvaderTennTallest @Syrina

 

[sunnyday]

Obsidian jumped a little, "Yeah, I have great ideas," she said rather sporatiocally. But when one of her team mentioned the group of Dracula that she sawfrom quite a distance away, but didn't feel the need to metion it, she stood silently a moment. Before she walked towards the back of the group and stood near a tree, waving to her team mates, "Mk!" She said, "Have fun! Tell me when you're done! I'll be cheering you on!" She said ratber loudly so that they could hear her.


Obsidian knew her team could handle the Dracula, and she didn't really feel like getting 'down and dirty' as they called it.

"If she did, I will just have to deal with her douchebaggery." Lapis answered as he continue through the exit, slightly annoyed and just tired. He just see the exit and after a few seconds of sluggish walking, the group finally were greeted by the sun. As the light fell over him, Lapis removed the fire dust crystal from Gemstone and sheathed it. "If it was a dislocated shoulder, then we could just pop it back in. Although it would be very bad now."


@Syrina, @Cruor Flumine, @GasMaskie

 

[sunnyday]

Ebony continued to pace back and forth, until she became annoyed with the clomping of her own heels on the ground. She planted herself on the ground into a sitting position, and stayed there silently, waiting for any moment Pascal might show distress or even consciousness, 'Maybe we're just early..' She thought to herself, 'The air ship could be on its way any minute..' As she finished her though her hair stared to blow in what felt like a strong breeze, her eyes look upward and there it was.. The ship. A small smile crept on her face, she had never been so grateful to see one. She hauled Pascal up on his good side as they came aboard the airship to return to Haven.


@GasMaskie @Deltorian Nephran @Cruor Flumine

 

[AnimeNerd5678]

Seriously!? She's not even gonna help!? Aqua sighed a bit, then him, Eminence, and Midnight began attacking the Draculas.


@Aryel @Syrina @InvaderTennTallest

 

[Midnight2902]

Midnight then found herself trapped between two Dracula " say goodnight " she said, as she sliced then open.


@AnimeNerd5678 @Aryel @Syrina

 

[Quincunx]

Aqua saw 10 Draculas flying toward him. With one slice, he managed to kill the 10 Draculas.
@Aryel @InvaderTennTallest @Syrina

(OOC: that's OP, and needs more details. Try to write it out as a scene, not just a move.)

 

[AnimeNerd5678]

Aqua saw 10 Draculas speeding towards him... and he slashed at them. He slashed at each of them, hitting them either in their wings, face, or stomachs. After many slices, the 10 Draculas fell the the ground, dead.


@Aryel @InvaderTennTallest @Syrina

 

[Quincunx]

As team PERL boarded the airship, they were greeted by Headmistress Mayur as well as the all-female team from before (looking no shabbier). "Welcome aboard!" the white-clad girl said with a smile. "I'm Nila, Nila Nalini. I hope we can be friends." She seemed to be looking at Cruor the most, although her eyes were darting around so fast it was hard to tell.


Headmaster Mayur waved them over and directed a medic to tend to Pascal and take him to the ship's small infirmary. "As the second team to officially enter the school this year, I want to offer you a very sincere welcome. I hope you're ready - you get out of Haven what you put into it. We can't take off just yet, but in the meantime--" she gave each of them a sheet of paper "--please sign up for your electives. This isn't Sanctuary Academy, where you graduated from as kid Hunters, so you're given the freedom to choose a few of your classes. Sign up for one Combat Focus and one Noncombat Focus."


There were six classes in total on the paper:


COMBAT FOCUS


Aura Development


Grimm Physiology


Dueling (Vytal Festival Prep)


NONCOMBAT FOCUS


Lore and Fairy Tales


Grimm Geography


Dust Mechanics





(OOC:


Aura Development: fighting people and things with only Aura and Semblances. Good for players whose character's Semblance is complex, the main focus of their fighting, or relating to their story.


Grimm Physiology: involves traveling to Grimm-infested places to learn more about them, often in the thick of battle as you can't exactly dissect piles of ash. Good for players who get bored of the same setting all the time.


Dueling (Vytal Festival Prep): rotating sparring matches and 1v1 focus. Good for players who are interested in getting to know the NPCs, and perhaps looking forward to some PvP.


Lore and Fairy Tales: players should be prepared to submit a fairy tale and how it ties into the RWBY world, like something that exists alongside the Seasonal Maidens. I'm hoping we get something that could be involved in missions.


Grimm Geography: players should be prepared to submit a new type of Grimm and develop it over the course of the RP. Some or all submissions might be encountered in the RP.


Dust Mechanics: players should be prepared to submit new ways of using Dust, as well as explorations of Dust use their character doesn't typically use.)

[Midnight2902]

As midnight continued to kill off more and more Dracula she realised the more she killed the more came from with in the forest


@AnimeNerd5678 @Syrina @Aryel

 

[AnimeNerd5678]

Aqua kept slashing and killing Draculas.


@Syrina @InvaderTennTallest @Aryel

 

[Midnight2902]

Midnight continued battling the fearsome Dracula, And with a swing of her shiny blue weapon, she was able to kill a herd of them at once. She never gave up on herself in this situation, She thought running was a cowards way of life and so fought for her own life.


She thought i† was over until more came pouring into the part of the forest the team was in " Where do they all come from?" She asked in a dull tone. Before anyone could answere she continued to battle the on coming storm/herd of Dracula.





@AnimeNerd5678 @Aryel @Syrina

 

[AnimeNerd5678]

Aqua sliced each of the Draculas in half. He even grabbed a Dracula and smashed its head against another Dracula's head, a small crunch sound heard by him. Aqua kept killing as much Draculas as he can. Soon enough, there were no more Draculas in sight.


@InvaderTennTallest @Aryel @Syrina

 

[Midnight2902]

Midnight then shot an arrow in a Dracula to put it out of it's misery. " So what now? Do we continue on or?" she asked looking at all the dead Dracula around her, She couldn't believe how many there where, If she showed more emotion she would have a horrified / surprised look on her face. She'd never expected so many Dracula in this part of the forest.


@AnimeNerd5678 @Syrina @Aryel

 

[AnimeNerd5678]

"It's best if we continue on." Aqua said, walking with his team. They kept looking for the door.


@Aryel @InvaderTennTallest @Syrina

 

[Midnight2902]

Midnight followed on going around the dead Dracula body's lying around the place
