Tsuki was honestly expecting a little more resistance from the two youths. So, it was more than a little relieving when Astra and Rowan had left to the cart."I have a feeling this won't last though."She sighed at the thought, slightly mad at herself for doubting her teammates' abilities to listen; she knew they were better than that though. She was just nervous and slightly mad at herself for letting her friends get hurt."Thank you. Both of you,"The tiger faunus said when she was close to the cart.
She then turned her attentions to Ryker after he had saluted her. Miya could not help but smile amusedly, appreciative of the cheetah boy's lightening spirit. Tsuki would look ahead at their destination while Ryker went to go check on the two invalids for himself. At least, that's what she thought he was doing. After a bit though, she would look over her shoulder at the trio."Are you three ready to get a move on?"She waited for them to answer her as she checked the ropes and handle of the cart one last time.

'Did they just never tell him the word, or does his scroll auto correct not work?' He wondered to himself, though chose not to comment on it for now. He would let him know how to spell it later, as he didn't want to open a whole subject of spelling while on the mission. As amusing as it would honestly be to do. Ryker also was not a very good teacher...he would relate each letter to a girl in some way. And he knew Rowan would repeat all that out loud, with the high chance of Tsuki beating him severely if she found out he taught him that. So silence seemed the best way to go about things for now. He was glad to see Tsuki's amused smile at his salute. While Rowan was by far the best at bringing a good mood to everyone, Ryker was glad he could help in that way a little bit too. Was combat close for a bit? Yes. Did they survive though? Yes. So he figured some lightheartedness was in order for everyone after that, at least as much as he could help in that regard.
After Ryker had offered Rowan a way to help, he was surprised by the guys immediate referral to the order of command. While Ryker had intended to clear it with Tsuki, he had honestly not expected Rowan to be adamant about it as well. 'Learn something new everyday.' He thought to himself slightly amused and having a bit more respect for Rowan. While Ryker was all for chaos, he knew order mattered in this situation too. He would smile to Rowan before responding. "Sure, i'll ask her about it and you'll know soon enough." Ryker would simply say before turning his attention to Tsuki as she chose at that moment if they were ready to get a move on, Walking up to her, he would stop to face her before speaking. "I was wondering...You think we could let Rowan help pull the cart too? I know his hand isn't good to go right now, but we could always tie it around his waist. The poor guy just wants to help a bit more, I mean look at him." Ryker would say, trying to be convincing as he paused to nod toward Rowan before looking back at Tsuki. "With your permission though. He was adamant about that, even before I mentioned I would ask. Whatever you say goes after all captain." Ryker would finish, his tone shifting to be a bit more understanding as he knew her position on it. To a degree. He figured she wanted them on their to keep them safe, and probably wouldn't want her orders questioned. But sad Rowan was not something Ryker wanted if he could help it.

Team: TRRA ///// Racoon Faunus///// Student///// Ex-thief What's up?: mission mission Where am I?: Outside! Who are my peeps!? Astra! Ryker! Tsuki! Ooc; <><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Yes, he was clearly being a whiner about this debacle, but Rowan couldn't tell what this actually was. Never had he really used his semblance for it to affect him to this degree, and taking it all in, he had no one to blame but himself. Of course, Rowan had no mind on using it on such an occasion as this. It only sucked it had affected his hand. Twas a good gesture his team had been pulling to give him something to do despite the current disability. Astra more enthusiastic, and Rykers intentions unknown. Both of them were in the game!!! They had to be serious about this mission though anyways, which three out of four were doing. The raccoon had to put his mind into it as well. He was falling behind on that small factor. Discussing it was only time consuming.
Rowan's tail couldn't help but sway left to right, giving away his anticipation. Ryker was going to be kind and ask after all, which helped him relax.Yay!! He could pull with one hand after all!!! The moment his ears caught on to him having rope around his waist, the panic rose again. Nooooooooo!!! Not the waist!! "Ah!!!! Waitaminute!! The rope could break my ribcage!!!! This ain't exactly buffness you see here friend! My hands are stronger!" Swerving his head back and forth between the three faunus, only realizations of scouting being the easier one had won him over after all. Quickly, he wove both hands, flinching by the sleeping one spazzing his wrist up. "I'll help Astra after all!!! If I use my waist, that will only slow us down more~!!! I am not a Phillip!!! Quick! Hire one!!! Nope!! No no!!! Nevermind!!! Tsuki said stay in the cart. Ignore me!!! Ignore ignore!! Let's be the best scouts Astra!!!!" Laughing profusely in embarrassment, it was all the raccoon could to to bow his head all crazy. " Let's go let's go! Sorry for the hold up!" Peeking over towards Astra, he made thumbs up to her, signalling he was staying put. It was clear he was adamant now about sitting put. "I'm so sorry!!! I am not a mule and a waist pulling won't help either of yas!!!!" Sooooo embarrassing.... "Point the direction Astra~! I'm calling dibs on the first mate of the ship!! Yes!! This cart will be a ship!!! This image of a ship will make this scouting more fun!!! Ra ra ra let's find that booty!! Er... Treasure!!!! Mission a go!! Ready!!!"
Astra would tilt her head to Tsuki. She was confused as to why she was apologizing. It was a mission, if they didn't listen to the leader, then it could be death for them. Astra finally just got out of the oppressive hand of her mother. She needed to live life, rather than go through the motions! "I wanna live Tsuki! Listening to the leader is important for that!" Plus, she wanted to be with Rowan on the cart. They were gona be pirates, shooting things with the cannon!
Ryker tried to take Rowan away from their fun time on the mission. Rowan wanted to stay where he was. "We can be pirates Rowan! You tell me where the enemy ships are, and I'll shoot them with Boom boom!" She was excited to get things done. She was honestly sick of feeling so full.

Tsukiko looked to the cheetah boy as he had returned after she had asked her question. His suggestion did make a bit of sense, but she also felt that the raccoon would best serve as a lookout rather than being on the front-line if Grimm did come at them again. Her calm icy-blue eyes looked back over at the two in the cart now. It seemed that Astra was being fussy with Rowan, but she would also keep the hyper boy focused as well.
"They are good for one another, partner-wise."That thought in mind, she turned her gaze to Ryker and shook her head slightly."No, it'll be best that you and I are up front,"The tiger faunus answered before looking to the slightly frantic Rowan and giggling softly."You would be okay. Though Astra is right, she needs you back there to keep an eye out on the other side,"She assured Rowan while also reassuring Astra that she would not lose her partner in look out.
"Alright, lets move. No more talk,"She told her teammates, leaving no more room for discussion; this was in hopes of getting them focused on the mission again."Lets hope nothing else goes wrong,"She thought with a sigh. Once Ryker was up front with her, they would begin to move the cart on the path again.

Well it was a good thing they were returning back focus on the mission. If that didn't work, then certainly the appearance of a a dead grim before it evaporates would. The same hooves smacking against the ground would start up again, but as the sound becomes more clear it sounded less like hooves and the steps had more pounding against the ground. It was obvious, whatever was in the distance had some power to it. If wasn't obvious from that, it would be obvious when a grim, gorilla like in nature, stumbled in front of them as if it was rag-dolled and thrown. Evaporating in front of them, a loud shriek went off in the background that sounded more like a damaged cry of an elephant. The most important thing was...they had time. It was still a good distance away, but it was time for them to get going. Hopefully nothing bad would happen. Then again....that rope looked as strong as Designer's rap career. (weak if didn't get the reference) Tragic.
OOC: Ryker wishes he can be as manly as Rowan!. Anyways, the ropes should break next post.
Grim Clues: More than one grim hanging about. Seems to be attacking each other for some odd reason. They are a good distance away...but seem be near direction of your destination.
▄ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄ Well that was a sudden turn of events. Tsuki took one look at that, admittedly a thoughtful one, and decided it'd be best that they remain on the cart. Ryker wasn't sure what he was going to do next. He wanted to protest slightly, mostly to make the work easier for himself, but also didn't want her to think he was disrespecting her word/ control of the mission. She was the leader after all, and he only the number two at most. Unless Rowan took that spot from him, which was entirely possible. Caught unsure how to proceed, he would be prevented from making a case as the two on the cart got vocal. Especially Rowan. Out of nowhere he seemed to get cold feet of helping pull the cart, in Ryker's mind at least. 'The hell? I was doing this for the both of us.' Ryker thought, unsure what made him have such a change of heart. Apparently it was because he feared the rope would break his rib cage...Ryker was pretty sure that wouldn't happen, but Rowan seemed absolutely convinced. Ryker just rubbed the back of his head as Tsuki giggled. He had to admit...despite the sudden switch from him and confusion, Rowan was being pretty funny. And it was nice to hear Tsuki laugh to let loose a little.
Then, while he wasn't quite sure, it also felt like Astra was jealous and trying to hog Rowan for herself. 'Did they become a thing when I wasn't looking?' Ryker wondered to himself. He wasn't sure why, but it seemed to him like she was equally trying to convince Rowan to choose her. 'Well...I suppose I can let this go if they are a thing. Not going to block Rowan.' Ryker decided in his mind. Pirates...he should have thought of that sooner. It was a sure fire way to convince Rowan to his side if only he had thought of it first. Giving a smile to Rowan, he would turn to Tsuki as she decided they had enough debating. Not that he could blame her for it, he had been thinking the same as well. But he was also enjoying the small comedic side break. 'Am I going to have to give Rowan the talk later?' Ryker thought as he took his place beside Tsuki and began to pull the cart besides her. Though he grew a mischievous smile since he was stuck with the heavy lifting while the other two got to ride in the cart. "Rowan, why don't you sing us a pirate shantey while we pull? Should be a lot of fun." Ryker would loudly say over his shoulder as he continued to pull the cart. Sure, with Rowan it wouldn't be quiet...but Grimm were attracted to negative emotions...at least he thought so. So a happy Rowan singing should in theory be as good as being dead silent. Maybe.
It was a little after then that the Grimm sounds began again, creepy as ever. Something that sounded like hooves then pounding started again...and out of nowhere a gorilla-like grimm came into sight and turned into dust just as quickly. Ryker froze and his jaw dropped when he saw that...before hearing that almost sounded like an elephant in the distance. Nope, Ryker did not want to deal with that. It at least sounded far, but Ryker quickly looked to Tsuki before speaking. "I like the idea of speeding this up. Want to make a run for the destination and get as far away from that thing as possible?" He would ask her, still pulling the cart. Tsuki would agree and Ryker would run almost as fast as his legs could carry him...going CHEETAH SPEED! While still being weighed down by the cart, it would help him pull it much faster than before. Tsuki was at least initially was able to keep up with him, though if he had enough time to build momentum who knew. However, that idea came crashing down with one simple sound that could be a major setback; snap. The old rope didn't seem to have been ready for intense pulling, or perhaps it wouldn't have lasted the entire journey anyway. Regardless, the rope snapped...for both Ryker and Tsuki as he almost kept running, before skidding to a stop. "Oops...Uhh...Anyone know how to fix a rope?" He would ask, as he held up his broken end and looked back at the cart.

Staying in the cart had finally been a decision, the trek on to continue a complete must at last. Pirates the idea had been, and pirates the would seem to be! As long as no one would get too far into the depths of their imagination, surely they could pretend as such? The discussion was clearly over, so any more second guessing would have been nullified, no matter how comical it all had been becoming. As one with night vision, that particular spot was the best. Rowan would indeed apologize later to Ryker for the change of heart, once a blissful pace could return to them, most likely (and hopefully) back in the dorm. Despite what the cheetah had been thinking, Rowan would be completely dumbstruck on any of that, should the matter have been brought up. Of course for now, he would know nothing on what was going through the heads of his comrades. For the most part, he believed it was all mission based state of minds. Thinking and pondering on the thoughts of others were not on his list of priorities. At least he knew there weren't too many hard feelings, the moment he was asked to sing. Oh geez!!! Sing!? "Aye aye!! I thought ya'd never ask!!!" Something to pass the time right??? Them poor souls....
"Ahem.... This cart thingy be a ship! A ship! A ship! With no poopdecker or motor or so!! Only Ryker and Tsuki sailing this thing, let's hope they don't make us sinnnnk! Don't want no hole to fall into!!! Don't want to trees for me to peee~! Don't want to go embarassing Astra!!! For i'm just a pirate you see!!!! Yooo hoooo hooooooo.....Oh yooo hooo hoooo..... No need to swab the deck Tsuki, for that is a job for Ryker and me! Keep tugging that rope like it's a licorice~! It may just be the tastiest thing. It uh... It reminds me so much, of Ryker's hair.. Can we uh.... Twist it like that too~!? For a pirate like me, that's what you will see, For darling Astra and meeeee~!!!! Just don't embarass the.... TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES~. Thank you we will be here all night! Tsuki's turn now right!?!?!?!" A horrible tone through out that whole thing, Rowan was rather proud of his singing nonetheless. With a cheeky smile of joy, he proceeded to wait until Astra would sing as well or not, going back to keeping watch. So far, they were lucky to have heard nothing.
Whether the chipmunk had sang too or not, Rowan had went back to serious after with a cheer, covering spots he could help Astra with on the patrolling. Singing was fun but they could miss something!!! Everything was silent once more, aside from the wheels turning of the cart, and the small breaths from Ryker and Tsuki as they pulled. It was after the small silence had Rowan picked up the sound in the woods. Was that Phillips again? The hooves had quieted, being replaced by the creepy, unknown sound of another grimm. Odd..... Before he could say anything it clear the rest could hear them too, by the fact they were closing in. With a gulp, he prepared his naginata back into the daggers and polearm form, using the right hand at the ready. They could be used as a throwing knife too right? That was when the gorilla was thrown before them, evaporating into dust. "Holy cow!!!!!" That was all the raccoon could say, standing to his feet.
The elephant noise disturbed his voice from outspeaking anymore, the mere tone sending shivers down his spine. "We should head opposite from the sound!! That sounds worse then my tumtum growls!!" Saying such a thing had to have been a jinx of sorts!! Sooner or later it had to happen.... Right? The sound of the rope snapping was pure horror! "Ummm..... No idea!!!!! Maybe knotting it up!?"
Astra would smile, they were finally going to get moving. She wanted this out of her semblance! Ryker and Tuski would pull the rope attached to the cart, and Ryker said that they should sing a pirate song! That sounded like so much fun. She wanted to pull out her scroll to get a beat for the song, but then Rowan would start singing without one. Her ears would flatten against her head, at the sound. I mean, there was a tune...just not one in tune. He would finish his part, and she would start.
"Here we are, pirates on the bay! Yo ho ho, Students no more, nothing in my way! I will sail with my friends on the sea, in this fine vessel, we shall prevail! To see the world is my goal, and with this vessel, that I dub Smoothy, we shall have smooth sails along the way! Yo ho ho, we shall deliver the booty to our goal, and earn the respect of the other pirates below! It don't matter if we hurt, because we are alive! Her singing wasn't the best, but it was sure on tune. Her part would end as the grimm would dissipate in front of them. That was a shock. She had been keeping watch during her part of the song. Somethin' was hurting the other Grimm, the hoof beats she could hear, but then they became something else? They should have brought Sir Reginald. He would speed them and the cart away.
Then there was a jolt, as the speed seemed to increase. Her claws came out, digging into the material of the cart. Then, with all the pulling the rope broke, sending the momentum of the cart forward a bit. When they finally stopped on a root, it would look like her eyes were spinning. "I know a bit about rope work." She would then shake her head a bit, and finally pull her final weapon off of her side, Sword sword. Sword sword was such a good weapon. It did all the pointy things. She would then lift the lower part of her dress to her petticoat she wore under. She would then use sword sword to cut parts of it. The stronger parts of it too. By pure chance, she didn't cut parts that would show her panties. She'd then put her dress down, and walk over to the part that Ryker had in his hand. She would look at it. "Oh, this isn't good! It's beyond saving!" Her voice was surprised and disappointed at the same time. "We would need some tape, We have the sharp objects to cut it, but without the tape, our ship ain't sailing anymore..."

『Part 2: Pirates of Beacon!』
▨✥▨
The noise would continue but an introduction of something else came into the situation. Gun shots would go of and rustling of bushes would occur. Something was coming! Something major. Coming out of the bushes was a body, a bloodied male that had rope in his hand. It looked like some type of rodeo show as a boarbatusk would come out of the bushes attacking the male. The situation would be over quick. The markings on the male shown that his aura was fully depleted. The moonlight was their spotlight as the show continued. With the male's next movement, he would dodge the attack from the Grim and would use the rope to lasso it. The rope tying it down, he would jump onto it and would tie it up, the legs and hands hogtied as the grim was now on its back. Tired, he would fall next to it, smiling and not noticing of the team that was around.Starting to pick himself up, he looked at the grim and felt he succeeded. The grim, he was still being hostile. Using it's tusk, it would wiggle around violently having a tusk impale into the skull of the man. The result, the male was now dead, hole through its head while his body had two lines of rope neatly attached to his backside and the rope that was attached to the boarbatusk. This leads team TRRA with an interesting predicament. Take the rope from the boarbatusk which was clean or take the rope from the backside of the male which had splatters of blood on them from the male's previous trials. Or, they could not disturb the dead and go with another option. RIP that male huntsmen though.

☆☽Miya Tsukiko Tora☾☆ ☆═━If you don’t enter the tiger’s den, how can you catch the tiger’s cub?━═☆
Tsukiko was glad they had started moving. The sounds of hooves made her nervous, and she did not like the feeling. Though she had to admit, the cart was a little heavy. Icy-blue eyes would momentarily glare slightly at the cheetah when he suggested the raccoon sing them a shanty...of course, she couldn't deny that would be entertaining."At least Rowan and Astra are keeping the mood light."She thought to herself before the sounds got louder. Then Ryker began to freak out."Fine,"The tiger faunus said, as they were forced to pick up speed.
He was a fast little sucker, it was a wonder she could keep up with Ryker, weighed down or not. And then the unthinkable happened...the rope snapped! What was even worse?..."Yelp!!"Miya found herself rolling forward as soon as she had skidded. Rolling forward, she was lucky her aura took the brunt of the fall...she would be bruised and sore though. Slowly standing, the leader of Team TRRA would look about them, seeing moonlight ahead.
Her focus was on her team though as she would turn back to them. All seemed to see what was up with the rope."I don't think we have time for that,"She said, growling softly from the soreness of it all."Productive as usual,"She thought with some praise. And then all seemed to come to a horror show."s**t...Ready your weapons,"She instructed, not knowing what to really expect as a fellow hunter came into the moonlight ahead.
"He's not bad,"Miya thought. She readied her fans though, just in case. A sense of foreboding and internal dread never left her. Turned out she'd been right to prepare her weapon. Throwing her bladed war fans toward the man and the boar Grimm, she ran towards the beast and the dead body of the hunter. If her weapons hit and stuck, she would have no choice but to use her semblance and summon a hunting spear. But if they came back, she would put them away on her bracelets to summon the spear, ready to attack and/deflect an attack from the deadly Grimm."This is crazy. But we need rope,"She thought as she headed into battle.

Even if Rowan didn't have a future in singing. Despite the lack of tone or tune in Ryker's mind from his singing, he enjoyed the upbeat tone of it all and the general intention of the raccoon. It really did help to lighten his mood. Astra even joined him after Rowan, and her singing was a bit better than his which was a nice relief as well. While the singing didn't last too long, Ryker had been left glad he asked them to sing. And sorely tempted to try and convince Tsuki to sing as well, especially when Rowan was trying to give her the spotlight for it...though she unfortunately didn't accept. 'I wonder what her singing voice sounds like.' He thought to himself with a silent smile, but ultimately decided it was something he could try to get to happen another time. If she was reluctant to let the others sing, he highly doubted she would now. Plus he wasn't sure she could sing something as upbeat as their tune. She could sign something beautiful maybe, but uplifting was what they needed.
Everyone else seemed to agree with him in some way or another that they did not want to stick around out here long, and he honestly couldn't blame Rowan for wanting to go the opposite direction from it. Hell, he wanted to do so as well...but he was not the one in charge. And Tsuki seemed intent on finishing this mission, so he would follow his captain despite his own internal worries. Then of course the rope broke...he wasn't sure why he thought his luck would ever change. Not long after he tried to speed things up to get out of here faster the damn ancient rope gave out on them and would probably take a bit to fully repair. It was his usual luck, of course, but he was really hoping it wouldn't have happened on a mission. Tsuki had the worst of it when it broke, along with Astra. The sudden event caused her to roll forward a bit, and it did not look like a comfortable tumble. Astra looked very much dizzy and disoriented from being on the cart for that too. Only Rowan and Ryker seemed mostly fine for now. As Tsuki recovered and looked to the rope, she mentioned not having time for it. Looking between his end and to Astra now, who had at some point gone full pirate without his really noticing, he was told they would need tape to make it work. 'And we don't exactly have a convenience store out here...' He thought to himself, wondering now why they were even taking the cart. Astra and Rowan, to him, seemed fine for the most part now. They could always just continue on foot if anything.
It was then they would hear gunshots and Ryker jumped slightly, hating himself for it. The last thing he had been expecting in here were someone else's gun being fired all the way out here. Though he supposed it should bring some relief...he much rather run into another person than a grimm, and at this stage almost anyone was more qualified than him in fighting grimm. "Maybe we are getting help." He thought optimistically, but would have the rifle ready regardless as Tsuki told them to be prepared. What came out of the bushes was not something he was expecting at all. Some cowboy like hunter with a boarbatusk sprang out, and after a brief series of action, the boarbatusk was left hog tied with a successful hunter. 'That was so cool...' Ryker quietly said to himself in awe at what just happened, too stunned to say much else. And then...everything went wrong. He seemed to get too confident, and the grimm took advantage...killing him brutally if quickly despite being tied up. "NO!" He yelled out, despite it already being far too late. Ryker felt himself go green from the sight of it and how horrifying it was...Promptly turning away slightly to throw up. The sight of the man was burned into his mind as he vomited whatever meal he had before this mission. This wasn't how things were supposed to go. 'Huntsman are supposed to be heroes...they can't die that easily...' He repeated in his mind, still in shock as to what happened. He couldn't think to help Tsuki as she charged forward, or about the rope being useful. All he could do is feel sick to his core and try to rid his stomach of the sickness. Normally, his survival instincts would kick in and tell him to kill the grimm quick. But while it was tied up...his mind was too focused on the tragedy of the huntsman and wasn't able to push it away from his focus.

That disappearing grimm was quite the arse hole!! Their singing wasn't THAT bad!! Rowan found they had done awesome as expected! Did it really have to disappear like that while people were trying to have a good time!? Rude!!! It was probably jealous. Jealous of their singing. Yeah, that had to be it. Rowan would conclude with that thought in mind, is head curiously peeking towards the rope, which was proving no use to magically tying itself up again. What kind of technology couldn't repair itself!? Oh right! this was plain Jenny rope. A rope of wire would indeed prove helpful to but and carry for a future issue. "What about socks? I have a pair and we have ours we are wearing!!! The power of foot sweat among friends could work!!!" Ever so much the bearer of bad ideas, Rowan could only watch them try and figure this out. The only other thing he could mention was toothpaste to try, but even he had enough common sense to know that would not work at all. If only any of them had thought of tape!!! Rest in peace wooden ship... Rest in peace. Was this the end of their ship, as Astra had claimed??? Definitely. He had more poodecker songs he wanted to caterwaul and sing!!!! They were a future musical hint for sure!! Over thinking his future was not at the most proper of times, and thanks to Tsuki, the raccoon got his mind set back to it's proper priorities. Bad ship on wheels. Breaking in the middle of their mission... Bad juju. Did one of them leave their lucky items at home? He had on his lucky socks!! They could be enough luck for two people! It would seem though their team would not be the people who needed that particular luck.
"Wowza!!!!!" Out of the blue, arriving through the trees, had been one interesting match of hogtying. Man got skills. At first, Rowan was rather enjoying the scene, cheering on the man in his head. "You got this!!!!" Having been about to jump to his feet and cheer at the mans victory, that bundle of excitement had taken no time to plummet. "HOLY CANOLY." Indeed he had jumped to his feet, though instead of cheering it was a look of both disgust and shock. That boarbatusk was a sore loser!!!!! "He just..." He just... Died? The man boy couldn't ask the words aloud, afraid of the truth, despite it happening right before them. At first he could stomach it. That was until he heard Ryker throwing up. His cheeks puffed up with his own bile, he had to jump out of the cart, doing his own throw up business with his back turned away from them. No.... No no no no no.... The sight of death brought back up memories long stricken by. This was not the time for delving, and all he could muster to prevent them was keep his gaze away from the body. Anger would rile up soon enough, his normally happy expressions replaced a look of pure malice. "We need to kill that thing before it kills again!!!" What if it were to happen to Ryker!? To Astra or Tsuki next!? It was a mix of the fear of death clearly getting to him, every part of his skin covered in goosebumps. Fear and old memories haunting at the wrong time. WRONG TIME. It was causing a mental battle that had him almost talking under his breath, biting the corner of his lip to prevent actually saying anything. "Someone kill it!! Pinch me!! This death cannot go unjustified!!! Death death death death.... Kill that grimm. I'll go kill it and avenge. That man had no need to die. No no no no no need. NONE." No.... "SNAP OUT OF IT! THIS ISN'T THE FIRST YOU HAVE SEEN A DEAD BODY!!!!" Gripping and tugging his hair, teeth gritted with negative emotion. He had to calm down. None of them could see this side. They couldn't witness the feral Rowan. This was not the first of dead bodies he had witnessed in his life. There was no way either true hunters could die that quick. That was just too much.
Without turning to face his team, his eyes kept ahead, ears perked to listen for anything else oncoming. It would help the feral side go away "that is right... Focus on the woods... Be a good boy." "Is he... Really dead? Or are we sitting in a bad dream all together this whole time!? Ack!!! Crazy sightings in the woods!!!! Horrible! Just horrible."
Astra would look at the noise that was happening around them. There was a hunter, and he hog tied the Borbatusk. Woo! Dad would have been so proud if she had done something like that. Then the man would get injured. She had to go help him! She would start to run towards him, no weapon out. She had to save the man.
Astra would start to pull the man towards the group. He wasn't breathing. She didn't know medical things, other than band-aids and things. She would try to clear things so he could breathe. He had to breathe. Hunters were invincible. They couldn't be killed. His Aura would kick in any time, and start healing him right? Yeah, that had to happen.

[[OOC: Boom Boom=Shotgun Lucy= hammer Sword sword= Short sword Post count 57 I am aware that he's dead, this is Astra's Weakness kicking in.]]
The boartusk would rock violently, still trying to get out. The fans would strike and become stuck in the grim. this caused the grim to ironically die and become dusted, making the fans fall to the ground. The rope it was tied up by was cut by the fan too making it practically useless. This would mean they would have to get the rope off the dead body. Or, just use the cut rope as two pieces that the grim was wrapped up by. Whichever they chose. One thing that was going to become an issue was if they didn't get a grip, their negative emotions was going to track more grim. They were in the clear now, but someone needed to rally the troops together. The body in which Astra was trying to get to come back alive wasn't. It was dead. He was gone, but something did happen. His scroll started beeping. Someone was calling to try and get into contact with the dead huntsmen. Did he have a team? Did it truly matter? Team TRRA had a job to do and they needed to get it done. They didn't have time to worry about ethics of robbing of dead body and trying to break bad news to people. Or did they? Maybe the people calling the scroll could come and help them? Help carry their package and boost their defenses against grim. Could theoretically also make the mission go smoother. But risk vs reward? Was it worth the mental toll that it was going to take on the group? They already felt some type of way seeing the huntsmen die. How much could their heart handle delivering bad news? If they can't handle it, the best option would be to continue on their own with the bloodied rope and get to pulling. Their ship should be able to sail now.
OOC:
Grim Clues: More than one grim hanging about. Seems to be attacking each other for some odd reason. They are a good distance away...but seem be near direction of your destination. The boarbatusk level is unknown but it is tied up! RIP that male huntsmen though.
