Red leaves and grass rustling underfoot as he moved, Kuhaku had been jogging through the treeline for some time now. No new events had transpired however, sadly. Not a single Grimm to fight against or fellow student to meet as he traversed the crimson treeline. Slowly, he came to a halt to catch his breath and to take a little break from his fruitless running. Then as if to answer Kuhaku's boredom, his ears began to twitch, picking up some curious new sounds in the distance. His 'radar dishes' twitching back and forth, Kuhaku looked up at the sky and tilted his head slightly to one side. Bronze-colored eyes blinking inquisitively, his panting steadied out as he quieted himself. Lowering his sword and shield, he began to relax his body in order to 'tune in' more effectively. The sounds of a swarm of Rapier Wasps pursuing a screaming student... An Ursa Major in combat... Another pack of Beowolves also engaged in combat and... ...Distant, automatic gunfire?... It seems that Forever Falls was indeed every little bit as dangerous as the Headmaster had said. Not one to be bothered by the idea of 'danger', Kuhaku just grinned and chuckled. "Well, it looks like everyone else is busy with their own problems. Well, to my future comrades-in-arms, I wish you the best of luck!" Sheathing his sword into his shield, he placed his hands on his hips. His nose then began to tickle and twitch irritating Kuhaku, making him frown. Continuing to scan the skies, he then focused in on his sense of smell, flattening his ears against his head to drown out the distant noises. He smelled...metal and wood. Oil and smoke. The faint scents of machinery were nearby. How curious. Perhaps the scents his nose were picking up on were that of the train tracks the Headmaster mentioned in passing? Most curious. Slinging his shield behind him to free up his arms for quicker and easier movement, Kuhaku broke off into a sprint towards the scent to investigate. His enthusiasm got the better of him and he crouched down in mid-stride, now tearing through the forest on all fours. As trees got in his way, threatening to slow him down, he merely dug into them with his nails and used them to launch himself forward quicker. He kept his ears pinned against his head, his tail swaying behind him to provide extra balance and control; eyes narrowing into a black vertical slit, he was laser-focused on finding the train tracks. It would certainly make things easier to navigate and perhaps he'd run into his fellow students. Maybe even form a partnership or team. As the thought excited him, he then noticed rays of light penetrating the thinning treeline. Within seconds, he broke out of the forest and quickly put the brakes on, sliding on the ground slightly. A large smile on his face, he slowly stood up. He was right on the money, standing at the edge of the train tracks he had detected. Looking to his left and right, he was a little disappointed to not have immediately run into another student, but his smile only faded ever so slightly. It was to be expected, the test had only just started and depending on where the others landed, they would not have been able to find the train tracks as quickly as Kuhaku did with his Faunus senses. Tapping his chin with a single finger, he then began to lose himself in wondering what kind of student he would run into first. Male or female? Human or Faunus? If they were female, he hoped that she would be cute. If they were human, that they wouldn't harbor any ill feelings against the Faunus. Plopping down onto his behind, he crossed his legs and sat thinking. Looking to his left and right again, he then contemplated which would be the right direction to go in? He was thankful that the train didn't seem to be running at this point in time, but that would probably make traversing Forever Falls a bit easier if it was. Resting his head on a fist, he began to pout. He was really eager to meet another student, though he had ironically hid from them earlier. He regretted that decision now that he thought about it. Sighing heavily, he closed his eyes and began to decide on the next course of action he should take.
