Lien found herself glancing around the forest, stopping every so often to lean around various trees to get a better look at the area. She could hear other students crashing through the trees in the distance who she imagined were less than graceful but had yet to actually [I]see[/i] anyone. She gave a huff, setting hands on her hips. [b]”Hope she landed OK, I was hoping she'd fall near by, butt...”[/b] The fox shook her head with a little sigh. Maybe the girl aimed for someone else or couldn’t control her fall well, or in the worst case scenario didn't make it down at all. Lien grumbled a bit before arming her right gauntlet and firing the grappling hook up towards the higher tree branch she could mange.

With the fox tails pulling her up and the Paw Pads giving a suitable anchor she shuffled up the tree almost effortlessly, perching herself on the tree for a better vantage point. The girl stood, wobbling a bit before regaining her balance. When she had a good stance she brought her fingers to her lips, taking a deep breath before blowing out a long, sharp whistle. Afterwards she cupped her hands at her mouth and began to shout. [b]”Heeey! Is anyone out theeeere!” [/b] She called into the forest loud as she could then began to look around again.

After a minute her cheery expression shifted into a bit of a grimace when she heard something rustling in the distance as if she came to a realization. [b]”I hope I didn't wake up any grimm...”[/b] Lien gave a nervous laugh to herself, shifting around impatiently on the branch. By calling out she inadvertently made it so she couldn’t move from the area for a bit. She didn't want to leave immediately after calling and miss a potential team made. But in doing so she was wasting time she could be using trying to get to the castle. Would it matter if she didn't get a partner before getting there? Further more she could feel her nerves going on edge at the thought that a grimm could lunge out at any moment. She hoped ursa and beowolves weren't able to climb.
