The arrow hit the target and the Ursa was gripped in the arcing power of electricity as the arrow delivered into. The Ursa's movements ground to halt as the grimm was paralyzed by the electricity's stunning power. The timing had been perfect as it stopped the beast at the exact moment the grimm were about to abandon their kindly one on one fight with Chloris. The big one was not stuck immobilized though and it didn't seem to like the arrival of more enemies. It came charging after Henryk. Remus watched as Henryk took off running for a nearby tree with the big Ursa on his heels. He shouted out that he would deal with that one and asked Remus to help Chloris by dealing with the second one. The was certainly something he could do. IT was clear that the Ursa he hit had not died. To bring the balance of numbers into their favor Remus still needed to put that bear down.
Remus moved to a new location while pulling a set of arrows from his quiver. His new firing position was one where he had a clear line of sight on the stunned Ursa's head. He knocked both arrows side by side. His index finger making slight adjustments as he lifted his weapon up so it was horizontal to the ground instead of vertical this time. He checked down each shaft then focused his sighting squarely between them after making certain of each arrows aim. The broad metal tips glinted in the same light that was catching the saber blades of the bow itself as he made the final preparations. Firing like this he couldn't overdraw for maximum power but that shouldn't matter given how soft his target was. These arrows were meant for the Ursa's eyes and the vital organ behind them. Once he let the bow string go both arrows would be sent flying at the stunned Ursa.

The jab to the ribs didn't hurt nearly as much as that to its soft underbelly, Ursa's armour protecting it. The Ursa Minor on all fours, circled around Chloris, all the while growling, snapping its jaws and otherwise making a great show of its ferocity. Having received the business end of her trident it was feeling a little more cautious and seemed to be trying to work out how best to get at the prey kneeling before it. Another jab and the Ursa swatted at the trident with its large paws, once again trying to destroy the offending stick as its pray jumped overhead. Chloris would have a few moments to make her next move while the Ursa Minor whirled around with all the speed and grace of a cruise liner. Then it would put its head down and charge, seeming to decide to simply try to bowl Chloris over and rely on its armour to protect it.
The Ursa Major charged after Henryk, running at full speed and then driven on even faster by Henryk's fear. The distance was closing. Just a few more strides and it would have - WHACK! Several leaves and twigs rained down as the tree shuttered from having a full grown Ursa run face first into it. The armoured bear slowly got up and gave its head a mighty shake. Now, where did its prey go...It took a moment for the Ursa to realize it had a passenger, but once it did it reacted quickly and violently. It started bucking and thrashing wildly in an attempt to dislodge the unwanted guest.
The third of the trio of Ursa didn't stand a chance. Remus's arrow struck true, piercing the creatures eye. It gave a roar of anguish before realizing it was dead and collapsed, quickly dissolving away into dust.
There were a few heartbeats of hesitation from the merchants, who all shared looks and none seemed too keen on the idea of going towards the sounds emanating from the cave entrance. "You heard the huntress, let's get moving." Chris Lee said in what seemed to be his normal growl. The bear faunus stood, somewhat awkwardly with one arm. The others slowly followed suit. The two who hadn't given their names helped support Snow on either side, well Chris Lee used his good arm to support Mary-Gold. It would be slow going, but at least they were somewhat mobile. Then they all looked to Ella to lead the way.
Henryk heard the Ursa hit the tree with a loud whack as he smiled, not being able to see it clearly because he was doing a back flip. 'The plan worked!' He thought to himself with glee as he knew the tree had ran into the tree rather than running him down. He had cut it close and was worried it would've just been him smushed against the tree. But thankfully for him that didn't happen. Unluckily for the Ursa. However, he had done a back flip... and while it would've been cool if he could float in the air at that point, he sadly was not immune to the effects of gravity. As leaves and twigs rained down from the sky Henryk would complete his back flip but not land on the ground... no, he found himself mounted on the Grimm's back! He had also managed to keep hold of his whip as he landed, being in his right hand. 'Woo! That was fun... Oh...' He thought to himself as the grimm was getting its bearing before looking to the tree... It did not come out of this unscathed. He felt a shiver go through him. 'Chloris is going to kill me if she sees this...' He thought to himself distractedly, forgetting about the Grimm he was riding temporarily as his mind switched to scenarios of what Chloris would do to him. He loved his nature team mate but... her semblance was scary. And her too when mad.
A smarter, more focused person, would have taken advantage of the confused Grimm as it regained its bearing and attacked it immediately. Maybe even had something sharp to try and stab it with... But Henryk was not that type of person. He only remembered the Grimm when it mightily shook his head as his hands grasped onto its fur not to slip off, and his legs tried tightening around its sides to keep him on. Maybe a bit too tightly because the Grimm paused for a moment after. 'Maybe its a nic-' He began to think but the thought quickly left his mind as it started bucking and thrashing wildly. "Nice Grimm. NICE GRIMM!" He began to say frantically as he used all his strength to grip onto its back to not be dislodged, his right hand grip being awkward as he also held onto his whip. He felt like a bull rider at this point on one of those competitions to not be knocked off. While he was surprisingly strong and agile to try and adapt to its movement not to be sent flying, that was not to say it was easy or guaranteed. The Grimm was much, much stronger, or so it felt riding its back. At least in terms of if they charged one another and tried a contest of strength. But climbing and holding on strength was something the circus performer was well versed in, even if his right hand still held his whip.
'Think Henyrk. Think! What would a bull rider or cowboy do...' He thought to himself in panic, knowing as soon as he was off this thing he was easy prey for it potentially. He had an advantage he just needed to figure out how to use it...Two thoughts entered his mind. One was to use the whip form of his weapon to get it around its neck and try to steer/ stay on it that way. The other option was whacking it in the back of the head with cane form, but it was much more likely to make him fall off. Feeling another strong buck as he clung to it, he made up his mind. Trying to clutch super tight on its fur with his left hand and tightening his legs against its sides, he would let go of its fur with his right and try lasso its head with his whip. A very very makeshift rein being the idea... one that was also pretty sharp. 'Bears shouldn't be as bad as lions right...?' He wondered to himself, thinking briefly to his time back at the circus when he was trained to do that. And almost eaten several times. He doubted he could do it in the first go, but the bladed whip would hopefully damage it. Hell, he may get lucky and even hit its eyes. And as long as he could hold onto it, he would continue trying to do so... Hopefully either doing decent damage or actually being able to have the whip wrap around the neck so he had some semblance of control over it. He just hoped if he was knocked off he would have time to recover. ✘ Actual Post count: 57 ✘ Effective post count: 50 ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄ OOC: Uhh...

She was not completely foolish, she was a little afraid, but she used it to fuel her adrenaline-filled actions. It was trying to act like a ferocious beast with its snapping jaws finally batting, but she steeled her nerves; she was rather excited for their combat really. Chloris cursed softly as the damned beast batted at her trident, thankfully not breaking it and forcing her to pull it back before Chloris would stand behind it. Mossy green eyes shined with mischief, trident securely in both hands and parallel to the ground as she waited for the beast to make its move.
As soon as she saw its intention to charge her, the petite young woman would lift her trident, blunt end facing the beast and give herself a run before it would turn around for its charge. Taking a deep breath, as it faced her, she would jump once again, this time to try and land on it. While in the air though her semblance activated again, her trident would change to a mace with thick thorns as its spikes."I must be mad,"She thought as she spun in the air."Oh well, mad is fun."
If she was able to land on it:
It would be a bit of a surprise to her. Grabbing hold of the Ursa's fur at the back of the neck with one hand and straddle its back. While, in the same moment, attempt to stab the thorn spikes into the Grimm's flesh at the right shoulder to hold on for the wild ride.
If not:
Missing her mark, she would curse and land with a roll and quickly stand and turn around. Facing the back of her enemy, she would hold the two-foot long mace and ready for another charge at her. Hopefully it would tire. The petite young woman with cornflower-blue hair stood, taking the handle of the mace in both hands, waiting for it to get close, roll and strike it from the side when/if it would charge for her again.

Ella Fletcher "Would you like to go for a swim?"
Ella felt a surge of responsibility overwhelm her for a brief moment as she watched all of the group follow her through the cave and towards the light. She placed her hand up to shield it as it blinded her a bit after being in the dark for so long. Ella looked behind her, just to make sure they group were following behind. She could hear the sounds of fighting getting closer and obviously more deadly. Ella gulped and placed her hand on her polearm, taking it out from her back she gripped it tightly as she continued forward.
Ella looked to her left, and pointed her weapon in a direction that wouldn't go straight towards the fighting head on but potentially work their way around it. She could now see her teammates, and tilted her head as she watched Henryk ride a Grimm, almost wanting to laugh at the sight of it. She remained focused on her main mission right now, protecting the group they had been sent to find and rescue. "This way everyone, just focus on staying together and getting around the fight.. I'll protect you!" she said, a sense of relief taking over her as she saw that her teammates and closest friends were all still alive and fighting.
"Focus Eleanor.. you have to protect these people.." she thought to herself as she snapped her attention back to those that she had promised to defend, and she would stand by this. She moved her way around the edge of the area, attempting to avoid the fight and guide the group around it and towards safety.

That worked out perfectly. Remus couldn't tell which of his arrows scored the bullseye or if it was both. But at least one had wedged itself into the ursa's eye and killed it after scoring critical damage to the grimm's brain. Remus released the breath he was holding to steady his aim as the target started to scatter like dust in the wind. That left two. The archer moved his gaze over to other two grimm and his partners. Immediately his mouth fell open in disbelief at what he was seeing. Henryk was clinging to the back of the big one. Internally he was nodding his head as he could see this, but never in a thousand nights of wild postulating would he imagine Chloris would be right there with that crazy circus actor. But there she was trying to jump onto the darn things back too.
Paragraph 2: Chloris takes the wild ride version: Provided she stuck her landing she had her legs securely holding onto the flanks of the other remaining ursa and her trident up as she tried to stab it down into the grimm's back. "What are you guys doing?!" Remus exclaims. He had no idea how things progressed to this point. He didn't think he had tunnel visioned that hard on his kill shot. Why would she opt to climb onto a grimm like three her size. I mean it is one thing to climb onto and run around over something like a nevermore. Those things were just so big they couldn't really get you at all. But an Ursa is still small enough to respond in some way other than to just be annoyed at the flies on its back. With her on it's back it was sure to start freaking out in an attempt to throw the small girl off just like the big ursa was doing to poor Henryk since like half a minute ago. Remus couldn't just ignore Chloris while she was in such a predicament. So he readied an arrow and lined up a shot on the Ursa's neck. With it bucking and thrashing about in an attempt to get at the girl on its back he had to wait a lot longer than he would of liked. But eventually the shot would present itself. Remus shifted his stance to a crouch and moved a couple steps to the right before grounding his left knee and puling the string into over draw. THERE! He took the shot as the ursa exposed its throat. There was no line of fire that would let the arrow accidentally hit Chloris. If the ursa moved drastically the shot would just miss all together with no danger to harm his ally. But if the movement was too minor that should take a good deal of vigor out of the thing. Paragraph 2: Chloris misses the grimm's back: Chloris missed the mark and tumbled to the ground. She recovered and got her weapon back on track to the foe quickly. It was a good recovery but Remus figured he should provide some back-up here. He pulled out an arrow and nocked it to the aura string before lifting his bow for a quick shot. He lined the arrowhead up with the Ursa's head and let the projectile fly. He made no effort to seek the perfect precision he had put into the previous shots he made. The arrow was meant to distract the ursa as it started to charge at Chloris. To achieve that it didn't matter if it whizzed by in front of it or glanced off the bone armor of the ursa's bear mask. Either would work to stop the charge or distract the grimm. That should provide Chloris a nice big opening to score a good hit in.
With the arrow fired to help Chloris Remus shifted his attention over to the more problematic issue. Henryk and the ursa major. He couldn't really use the more powerful dust types while someone was riding on it. What was worse was that Henryk's weapon really stood no chance to get a good killing blow in in this situation. They had the numbers advantage now so the guys could double team the big one now. Before that happened Remus would probably need to find a way to give their team leader chance to make a graceful exit from that grimm's back. What more their mission objective was out in the open now. Beyond Henryk and his unruly mount Remus could make out the form of Ella and the merchants trying to sneak out of the cave and get around the fighting. Those people were probably nervous as all hell being so close to the battle. The one lucky thing would be the grimm are probably much to busy with the huntsman to change targets and go for them.
Remus decided to take the indirect route to distract the big one too. He readied an arrow and lined up a shot for the grimms rump. He could imagine one of two out comes from this. One it pauses for a moment to glare at him which should give Henryk some time to act, or two it takes off like most any animal when hit on the back side. And with a bit of timing on the shot that would send it careening back into that tree once more. It would be hilarious yes, but more importantly even more useful in giving Henryk a chance to act. So Remus waited till the Ursa Major was facing the tree and then fired an arrow right into its back side. Then waited to see how it would play out.

The Ursa Minor might have shared a similar moment of confusion has the Ursa Major had when Henyrk first landed on it's back if it wasn't for the sudden sharp pain in its shoulder, which accompanied the sudden weight on it's back. The Ura Minor gave a mighty roar as it copied it's a bigger cousin and started bucking wildly while spinning in a circle. Unfortunately, luck was against Remus. Despite the exceptional skill of the mighty hunter, the Ursa Minor choose the exact second he loosed the arrow to exchange it's clockwise spinning for counterclockwise, causing the arrow to miss its mark. Alive and driven by pain, the Ursa Minor continued its erratic movements in its attempt to remove Chloris.
Henyrk managed to get the whip around the Ursa Major's neck. Whether that was a good thing or not was questionable. Though it didn't seem possible the Ursa's movements because even more violent and wild, driven by the pain in its neck from the edge of the whip digging into it. It would take everything Henryk had just to hold on. Remus's second arrow would strike true, the rump of an Ursa Major being a large target, no matter how it thrashed. It wouldn't quite have the effect he was hoping for though. Indeed, the Ursa sprang forward, but it seemed to have learned something from its first incident with the tree. It hit the tree roughly with its shoulder, momentarily slowing it down before taking off into the woods. With Henryk on its back, if he had managed to hold on this long, and with an arrow sticking out of its rear.
"You did say you were hunters, correct?" Chris Lee's voice rumbled from behind.
"I don't think they ever did say....." The group of merchants paused at the entrance of the cave, not quite comprehending what they were witnessing. Not one, but two of their rescuers were riding on the backs of Grimm. At least Remus had been correct. The Grimm were far to busy to even notice the group of easy prey standing there gawking at the scene in front of them, rather and working on escaping.
Henryk was mostly preoccupied with dealing with the bucking bronto of a grimm beneath. It was about as hard as you would imagine from watching other people do it, and ten times as terrifying to actually experience it. But, despite all this, he managed to hear Remus' exclamation of what are you doing. Mostly because he never heard Remus exclaim with that kind of tone before. While normally he would've turned and given him a wide smile... he was doing his best just not to get thrown off. He had no clue Chloris was doing something similar to him, but he could hear the other Ursa getting pretty riled up. "Riding an Ursa obviously. I'm hoping to crash this thing into something hard or sharp. Until then, trying my best not to get thrown off!" He would say in a loud voice between bucks from the wild Grimm beneath him, his volume of voice varying depending on how he was being moved while clinging to it. He almost had a death grip to it, and his whip had luckily managed to wrap around its neck. His hands quickly moved to hold onto it as a steadier grip than the things back. 'Now how do I ste-' He thought before being interrupted by wild movement beneath him. "Whoa!" He would quickly exclaim as it got even harder to hold on. If it weren't for his whip being wrapped around its neck, he likely would've lost his grip and been thrown off. That and his legs clamping to the sides of it as hard as he could to not be launched off the side and dragged alongside it. That would not be good.
Henryk was struggling for sure, but slowly getting an idea for the rhythm of the beasts movements... Until it suddenly sprang forward. Henryk had no idea an arrow had embedded itself in the rear of the grimm, nor how it would react... as it suddenly sprang forward. Caught off guard as it slammed its shoulder against the tree, Henryk almost flew off... but instead his horns impacted the tree quite hard from the momentum. "What hap- Wait no I'm the driver here!" Henryk would begin to say calmly and confused at first, before his voice picked up drastically in volume as the Grimm moved again. One second he was slumped over it from the crash, the next he was almost flying off of it. The only reason he was still on as it charged forward was his grip on his whip on its neck as he struggled to get his legs to hold him on so he wasn't being dragged behind it. While his original plan was to steer this thing like a horse, he was having no control over it so far. It bolted off into the woods with Henryk on its back as the young circus performer tried to regain control. Clamping his legs hard around its sides to give him something to grip and pull from, he would tug hard on the whip around its neck, trying to lift its head to convince it to slow down, constrict its neck to kill it... maybe even cause it to trip. Hell if he knew what pulling on the whip was going to do to it. He was not thinking of the future in the moment. He was more thinking of how to not die or be completely thrown off the beast. He was not letting it keep his whip either. "You are not getting to keep my cane-whips thing as a trophy!" He yelled at it as he tried tugging ever harder with the whip around its neck. One thing you never messed with a circus performer was their possessions. Especially not the ring leader's cane.

Chloris would be surprised momentarily as she would feel something soft yet firm between her legs.She was on the beast! Of course the excitement was short-lived as the time for games ended. taking hold of the Ursa's spike that was in front of her much like a natural pommel of a saddle. He was buckin' like a mad bull, that was for sure."Wouldn't wanna impale myself now,"She thought wryly as she would hold on still. Having landed in the space between the second and third set of spikes, she would have to change tactics.
The mace had done its job but now she needed a way to kill it."I hope Ella got the civilians out now."She adored their bookworm of a partner as she was inventive, intelligent and shy, but also sweet. She had to think fast as her wild ride could very well bump her off at any point. Among the jerking and romping, she kept hold of the spike in front of her and the mace as her aura glowed a pale green around her and her wooden weapon."Let's hope this works."She thought as her weapon would change to a very sharp, thorn-tipped spear of two and a half feet for jabbing.

Ella Fletcher "Would you like to go for a swim?"
Ella turned to look at the one called Chris Lee, and nodded, a confident aura surrounded her as she then looked around at the group she had been signed and promised to protect. "Yes, the four of us are hunters.." she said, which wasn't a complete lie, but not the full truth either. They were training to be hunters, to be honest, this was their first mission without the aid of a tutor to protect them. Ella wouldn't go back with it being a failure, she held her pole tightly in her hand incase of any pounces, and was expecting the merchants to begin moving around like she had previously asked.
Gesturing towards a clearing in the forest, she looked at her team who seemed to be handling the Grimm in their own.. unique ways. Her eyes opened widely at Henryk, if she wasn't in a serious mood right now, she would have almost burst out laughing at him. "Keep moving everyone! Lets not make ourselves an easy target.." she said, as she remained in front of the group to allow them to move behind her, ready to protect them at any costs. She took a half filled bottle of water and held it in her left hand, prepared to use her power if needed.
Ella watched her teammates, she gave Chloris eye contact as the girl seemed to be handling herself well. Remus was alive and seemed fine, and well.. Henryk had his own way of showing he was fine. She felt an overwhelming sense of relief come over her, she was only holding them back and although she felt so useless as a team, they never made her feel as such. Ella looked back to the group, making sure they were moving at a sufficient pace and if so, following behind them to take them to safety.

Remus could almost feel the desire the slam his palm into his face when Henryk actually answered his exclamation from earlier. "Yeah, I can see that. But, why are you two doing that!?" His words probably becoming the first point in time Henryk realized that Chloris was doing the exact same thing as him. That is if he was even able to pay enough attention to anything besides his rampaging mount to actually process the exact meaning of all his words. What made it all the worse is the shot he put out to help Chloris missed thanks to the grimm changing its entire movement patterns and the grimm under Henryk only acted 80% as expected. That was the real bad part because it was running off on them now. Luckily he could verify it wasn't running off towards Ella and the civilians. They were still safe and sound and in view if he looked back over his shoulder. Remus studied the battlefield for a quick half second. Chloris seemed to be managing since her ursa was smaller. She was about in position to start driving a small spear into the things neck or back one or the other. She would probably manage. But they couldn't let the big one run off into the woods with Henryk.
Remus adjusted his hold on his bow and separated the weapon into its melee form. With the twin sabers in hand he started to run after Henryk and his wild ride. He only chased it for a handful of seconds before changing his mind and turning away. This time jumping up onto a dead tree that was leaning up against a living one that caught it when it fell over at some point. A little bit of three dimensional movement later and Remus managed to get into an intercept position. Now should he jump out and blindside the grimm with attacks or try and have it stop when it sees him. 'Ok that was actually a really stupid question. The stupid thing is just going to try running me over if I just jump out and stand in front of it while it is charging around like that.' He opts for the safe bet and waits for the Ursa Major to come in closer and then leaps out from the low branches on the far side of the tree it is about to pass. He thrusts the two swords at the Grimm's neck with the full weight of his body and momentum.

Henryk was successful in slowing the Ursa down. Perhaps a little too successful. As the edge of the whip cut into the Ursa Major's neck the creature reflexively came to a sliding stop. Its haunches dropped down as the creature slid and soon its front end rose into the air as it reared up onto its hind legs. All of the sudden the painful biting into its neck vanished as fell off the back end of the Ursa. Its front paws gave a heavy thump as they hit the ground, the armoured bear twisting around to face Henryk. Neither Henryk or Ursa would have time to make their next move, for the Ursa's head fell to the ground, followed by its body rapidly decaying into dust. Remus's sword thrust had successfully decapitated the creature while it was twisting around on its hind legs to face Henryk.
Almost as if the universe was trying to make Ella's half-truth known, a ripple of laughter went down the line of merchants following Ella. On the positive side, Henkry disappearing into the woods on the back of an Ursa with an arrow in its rear reduced the negative emotions the merchants were putting out greatly. Ella urged them to keep moving, and while they did, it was met with an "I kind of want to keep watching though." from the female merchant who had never given her name.
Chloris's spear would turn out to be much more effective against the smaller Ursa. While the mace had injured it, the spear point priced the Ursa's hide behind its armoured head. The creature gave a few more dying bucks before it fell to the ground. A few seconds later it started dissolving into ash.
Henryk... was given a pretty wild ride on the back of that Ursa, trying his hardest just not to get thrown off. He had no clue how he must've looked to the others in this crazy rodeo, but he hoped he looked cool. His pulling on the whip around the Ursa's neck seemed to be working! It started to slow down as Henryk tried harder to reign in and kill the thing. While he was not normally a violent person, he understood when a situation was life or death. And he really really wanted to live. He wanted to enjoy candy, pizza, and sleep for so much longer! So he gave it his all in staying onto the Ursa and trying to control it with his whips around its neck. He could feel it come to a sliding stop, feeling slight relief after having been on its back as it ran halfway through the forest. "Finally calming down huh? I knew those years in the cir- AHHH!" He would begin to say with relief before the grimm did something expected. It began to stand. While Henryk tried to hold on... gravity and the Ursa's actions were too much for him to fight against...he fell off the Grimm and onto his a**. "Oww!" He exclaimed rather loudly as he propped himself up with his hands... only to see, hear and feel the heavy front paws of the Ursa land on the floor as it turned around to face him. Fear flashed across Henryk's face as he saw that, starting to try and backpedal away from the Ursa.
Before Henryk could say anything or actually backpedal, before the Grimm could ever do anything... its head fell from its body to the ground. Henryk could only blink in shock as his mind tried to process what had just happened. One moment there was an Ursa with the intent to kill him, the next it was headless. It took a few seconds for Henryk's mind to catch up with the world... as he finally noticed a sword where the head had been, then an arm and... "Remus!? When did you get here?" Henryk asked in genuine shock, not having realized he was even there. He had thought they had gone far away from the group, and it felt like the Grimm had gone in a straight line. But then straight was hard to tell when in a forest. Especially when you were riding on the back of an Ursa spurred on from an arrow in it's a**. Henryk quickly rose to his feet in one fluid movement and tried to hug Remus. Whether he succeeded or not, he would still speak. "Thank you! I did not know what I was going to do once it knocked me off." He would say truthfully, with relief and gratefulness in his voice (if he managed to hug he would stop hugging now). He had no clue what he would've done if Remus hadn't popped in when he did. His eyes would then dart around in worry. "Wait, where are the others, are they alright!?" He would ask with genuine worry in his voice. He hoped they were, he would've handled the grimm himself if they were not. He looked with worry, unsure where they were now in the forest in relation to them. "Do you know how to get back to them?" He would ask with worry, not wanting to leave them alone. He wanted to make sure they were safe, and he knew how bad splitting the group could go. While he knew they could handle themselves, it wouldn't stop him from worrying about them. If Remus knew how, Henryk would follow him. ✘ Actual Post count: 59 ✘ Effective post count: 52 ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄ OOC:

Chloris had the thoughts of the merchants as she caught Ella's gaze. Not wanting to worry her friend, she would smile and wink at the girl. Though in truth, she was concerned that with Ella and the injured still within reach, she had to work fast. Her vigor renewed, she would take her newly shaped weapon and make a killing blow."Sorry big fella, but goodbye,"She said with a forceful jab the spear through the neck, up through the brain and out the skull.
Shocked and still unable to believe it, the petite young huntress would look around as the beast under her disintegrated into black dust. She was only in the air for a split second before...gravity claimed her mass."Ack!"Chloris fell to the ground, thankfully moving in a way that would make her landing on her rear."Ooof. Well, that was rude,"She sighed and stood.
Momentarily leaving her spear on the ground while dusting herself off before picking it back up. Her mossy green eyes would look around with a slight apprehension. Her gaze looked to the merchants and Ella, who seemed to be smiling now. Guessing they were enjoying their fighting, she smiled slightly. That smile would fade when she realized her bag was nowhere in sight...and neither was Remus. He was a dead man."Remus!"Almost like an angry roar that could be heard as she turned to the forest.

Ella Fletcher "Would you like to go for a swim?"
Ella was so busy focused on protecting the merchants, keeping them moving to safety. She did look however, as Chloris's spear managed to engage with the Grimm - taking it to the ground with herself. Ella couldn't help herself, she looked around for a brief moment and ran the few yards to Chloris, putting her hands on her friend to make sure she was okay. "Are you okay, Chloris? Good job taking out the Grimm.." she said, before Chloris shouted out for Remus and instantly imbued panic into Ella as she frantically looked around for him. She knew Henryk had been taken with the Grimm on its back but hadn't noticed Remus disappear, "W-wh-where are they?!" she asked, panic evident in her voice.
Ella looked to Chloris and then over to the merchants, who had evidently been enjoying the fighting. Whilst they good feelings were a strength for the group at the moment, Ella couldn't help but start to become consumed with worry for the others. She squeezed Chloris, "Come on, let's go find them.." she said, as she then walked back over to the group. Ella looked ahead of them, the direction that the Grimm took Henryk was the same direction that they had to follow.
"Stay close together, we are going to find our teammates whilst getting us all to safety.." she said, attempting to look like she was keeping it together. She somehow knew that they would both be absolutely fine, yet couldn't help but worry about them terribly. "Eleanor.. keep it together for goodness sake.. you have a mission to complete.." she said to herself, as she looked ahead of the group and where they were going. Ella pointed, "That's the direction we are going.." she said, looking to her teammate. "They'll come find us too, when they've destroyed that Grimm..." she said, flashing Chloris a smile with confidence in the male members of their team as she started walking ahead of the others, checking on them every few seconds to make sure they were okay.
