×××xxxxxxxxxxxx× Rori ◥ | ◤ Thera

××××[ Rori was feeling a rush of euphoria. How long it had been since she got to cut human flesh. Rend flesh from bone, limb from body. Since this guy has so much to say, he wouldn’t mind a few wounds or two. As she gets closer, her foot stomps down, and her body leans forward. With widened eyes and a twisted grin filled with confidence, she prepares to maul this Adam person. “Blah blah blah, you can explain all you want, worm. I keep sayin’ it, but I don’t care about your logic! What I want, is to drag you six feet un-” And yet before she can finish, a firm push to her shoulder snaps the woman back into attention. “...Huh?” she remarks, her eyes shifting over to notice Xandria standing there trying to keep her from taking even another step further.

Rori stands back up straight and looks at her bothered teammate. She was properly scolded, and re-assigned with the purpose of their mission; to rescue Lavender. Rori, frustrated that she wasn’t allowed to rampage twice in one night, turns away and swings her blade to the side before sheathing it. “Gods damn it all! Fiiiiine I get it. I understand. We need to go find tits.” After taking a second to huff out her anger, she walks over by Joji and crouches down. “So, Captain. What next? Seems like Scarf found somethin’ interesting, ya know?” she says, wondering how they should tackle this new obstacle. But like the man he is, Joji quickly makes a risky decision. Xandria and Rori would take a path, the guys from the other team would take a path, and he would go off on his own. An idea to which Rori immediately objects, noticing her team leader walking off. But to no avail. He vanishes into the darkness of the pathway. With a clenched fist, she punches the dorm building and lets out a strong exhale. “Whew...calm, Rori. Steel yourself. You’ve dealt with this before, lass.” After regaining her composure, she turns to Xandria and, after staring for some seconds, nods. “C’mon, Scarf… We gotta do our fair share of searching too.” ]

Looking at the other team she let out a soft sigh. When a loud sound came from behind, with a few thuds, Onyxia snagged up her shield. Moving where her shotguns to be on the inside of the shield, she turned to Scylla. "Three Faunus have been taken. Don't by who, don't know how or why, don't even know where they were taken." Fastening the shield to her arm, looking at the three paths. "I don't care if you're some bad-a** Joji. Stick with your team, send those drones down that middle." Looking to Adam and Scylla. "Grab any needed gear you two. We don't what all is out there." She looked back to the other team."If you are so insistent to split then fine. But I'm still saying that is a terrible play." Turning back to face her team she sighed. "Scylla, thanks for bringing this over."

××××[ Enough of this. Angered by Xandria’s apology, Rori lashes around and stomps towards her teammate with a very frustrated glare. Her right hand reaches out and grabs hold of the other’s scarf firmly, bringing the weak willed girl’s face close to her own. “SHUT UP! I already told you it wasn’t your fault, damn it! How many times are you going to apologize for doing the right thing?!” Rori lets go and places a hand over her own face, finding all the strength she can muster to calm herself. “It was dark, and they were clearly suspicious. We got an alert about intruders AND kidnapping, but, the simple fact is we didn’t know who they were. It wasn’t certain! By giving a warning shot, you gave potential allies a chance to reveal themselves, while also scaring them if they were the intruders.” she sighs and drops her hand, turning herself away from Xandria and back to the path.

Her fists clench and teeth nearly snarl as she thinks about how those bastards got away. It wasn’t speed, that’s for sure. Maybe it was teleportation, but still, ALL of them couldn’t possibly have the same semblance. “I don’t know how they got away, but when I find them, next time I’m smashing their bloody faces!” she roars while slamming her fists together. After lowering her arms, she faces the darkness before them and nods slowly. “Never falter. If you mess up, WE will be the ones to tell you. Trust us at least that much. If you go letting people outside the team shake you that deeply, you’ll only slow us down when we need you the most. Believe in the Captain. Believe in Tits. Believe in me.” as she finishes her statement, she looks to Xandria from over her shoulder, giving her a more calm and focused gaze. ]

As Joji headed down the dark path, dimly lit up with the help of his scroll, he took this time to think to himself. "As dangerous as this may be, i can't risk Rori or Xandria taking off alone. With how our group was set up, someone had to take the short straw. I'll gladly take it if it means my group is alright. As he continued, he would keep his breathing to a minimum, ensuring there is no loud inhales or exhales. That would increase the chances of being caught. The same would be for each step he took, he ensured there was nothing he stepped on to make a sound. He didn't have to be careful with how hard he walked due to the fact that he wore a pair of soft bottom shoes. "Don't worry Lavender, we're coming to save you."

Rori had a point, upon meeting each other and introducing her to the team she didn't know much about her, not even her age since they were alone maybe this was the perfect time to get to know each other now. "Not so weird I think, I think we should get to know each other more, since we are team mates now. The weird thing would be us not knowing anything about each other and we're on the same team." Xandria answered with a giggle as she then heard Rori's question about what the robot were, she smiled as she held out her hand as one floated over to her hand and landed on her hand, as he petted its head she replied. "This is my semblence, I call forth these three robots that are in constant protection over me, they respond with my weapon as they fire laser beams of any dust powers I load into my gun. Also they act as my eyes and ears in combat, thats why when the sound came from my right my robot picked it up first and alerted me. They have a offensive mode and defensive mode." Xandria then stood still as the robots then came together and formed a blue shield between herself and Rori. "As I'm in my defensive mode my robots can't fight back." Xandria added as the robots then dispersed and went back to floating around the both of them as they kept a watch out around their area."D..Do you mind if I ask you a question? How old are you? And also what made you want to come to this academy?" Xandria asked as she continoued to walk but a slower pace so they had some time to talk.

When Rori complimented on her semblence she rubbed the back of her head shyly with a nervous but thankful laugh and thanked her. "T..thank you Rori." As Rori was about to walk off she stopped as Xandria asked her question, when she went on about how it was rude to ask a woman her age even though they both were women. Xandria took a small sigh as she told her anyways, learning that she was nineteen she smiled and replied. "Ah I'm eighteen myself actually." Then came her second question as she asked about why she came to the academy in the first place, Xandria remained quiet as she was respectful and allowed Rori to talk her full case on why she came to the academy, learning that she came here to become better, stronger and gain more power. Rori shared the same goals are she did, she came to this academy to not only become a better person but a better hunter as well, just like her parents she wanted to be just like them, strong hunters. After hearing Rori's laugh she watched Rori draw something in the dirt as she looked down at it wanting to see what she drew, then after her speech she sliced at the drawing and then Xandria, without thinking went over and hugged Rori adding. "Don't worry! We all will become strong and we will take on anything and anyone together!" Xandria said as she gave a small cheer and a big smile on her face wanting to cheer Rori up. Xandria's eyes then started to actually look at Rori's outfit as she was really liking her outfit, so simple yet so good looking, did Rori always looked so cool? Xandria then quickly looked back up at Rori and continued to ask. "W..Where did you live before coming to the Academy? You mentioned you didn't live in the city, what did you mean by that?" Xandria asked as she placed her hands in her jacket pockets as she leaned up against a tree but was still near Rori.

Scylla Tempestxxxxxx.

Scylla yawned and waved to Adam but she then turned to Onyxia. "I just grabbed something to throw, didn't even know it was yours. Whats a Faunus? Oh wait is that the word for the animal people? Well, at any rate, I'm not going to save them, I'll lend a hand. Only they can save themselves. People save themselves on their own. Nobody can ever save anyone else. I have everything, I went ahead and got dressed so I could give a thrashing to the people waking me up." She looked at the three hallways and wondered. She closed her eyes and clicked her tongue and let out a small sound that went down all three hallways. She shook her head after the echolocation was finished. "So the other people just decided to take two of the hallways huh. I don't like that. No one orders me around. I have half a mind to go straight down that center hallway and go whack that fool walking down it in the head." She hoisted her guitar onto her shoulder in preparation to move. Her guitar was basically the same size as her if not bigger, it was amazing how she was able to wield it so casually.
