Yu sprung forward suddenly at the sound of an explosion sounded from behind. A cloud of debris suddenly consumed the forest around her, filling her lungs with dirt and dust and blinding her momentarily as the trees above groaned against the gust of wind. The faunus quickly turned and lurched back, drawing herself out of the cloud of dust as it finally began to settle. Coughs racked her thin frame, making her eyes water and lungs heave until she could finally catch her breath. Obviously, someone was close. Yu sucked in a breath of clean air, wiping at her reddened eyes as she attempted to focus in on whoever caused such a dusty explosion. She slowly approached the clearing where the cloud had appeared from, keeping her footsteps lightly and her hand tightened around the hilt of Steel Feather. Before she could enter the clearing, though, a sudden flash of silver and brown flashed passed her eyes, vanishing into the forest to her right. Yu smirked as she watched the familiar back vanish into the greenery, and after a moment of thinking she turned and ran after it, keeping her footsteps light but quick. Trees groaned as she passed, bushes fluttered with the wind kicked up by her speed, and the faint sounds of Grimm echoed far behind her only helped to increase her quickness. If her eyes had not deceived her, then she would be behind the pretty girl, Clementine, from the ship. That girl had given off an air of sweetness, but Yu was rather interested in her knight-like appearance and expected her to be rather strong. A worthy teammate, hopefully. She smirked and glanced upwards into the canopy. Many sturdy branches filled her vision, and without another thought she leaped for the closest tree and kicked off of it, flying up into the leaves. Her legs curled up against her chest as she was suspended in the air momentarily, and then she came crashing down onto one of the large branches. Yu stopped for a moment, catching her breath as her eyes scanned the forest floor and then the half-showing sky above. Her eyes widened at the sight of a cloud, far in the distance, swirling around a certain, unseen point. Suddenly, the clouds parted, and something floated towards the mountain just out of Yu's sight. Was that... Laputa? It seemed to be the direction Clem was running in, so perhaps... Yu smirked and dove forward, landing on another branch, and she continued until she managed to catch the silver armor again. Instead of calling out to the other girl, though, Yu simply continued to follow her, eyes focusing in on the forest around her instead. The growls of the Grimm had quieted, but Yu was certain there would be some around. She could feel it, an oppressing aura that made her skin crawl, that was Grimm. Her focus on the unseen enemy was so great that she almost failed to notice that someone was calling out to "her" partner. Yu quickly pulled her attention away from the goosebumps on her arms and glared down, catching sight of a black-haired girl, someone she hadn't acquainted. With sudden, surprising jealousy (possibly caused by Yu's ever so over-protective nature over things that had been claimed as her's) Yu descended from the branches, landing directly in front of Clementine. She glanced at Cordelia once before turning her red eyes to Clem's, smirking. "Hi, Ms. Clementine. Wanna partner up?" She straightened her back, dusting off her back side before holding out a slender hand to the other girl. The foreboding feeling still remained, though it was obvious that Yu didn't feel like showing it, as her face remained as snooty and sly as ever. No need to worry her new "friend" yet, there'd be time for that later.
