When they went down into the forest that morning, they were prepared to fight some Grimm, maybe even a big one if they were particularly unlucky. What they were not expecting, however, was to find an entrenched team of senior hunters waiting for them. It was a slaughter, figuratively speaking, of course. Rayna expected fights at Beacon, it was renowned for its combat-ready hunters, but she did not expect for them to produce a scenario so similar to actual war on their examination day. It did say something about the team she was placed with, she reflected as Ozpin extended his sincerest apologies; their damage-output was exponential and even though they didn't have a tank to soak up all the frenzy of the battle, some quickly-imbued discipline made their weaknesses become almost intangible. It was brutal, they walked out of the forest sporting multiple injuries but they completed the mission and didn't have a single serious injury amongst them - that was a success in her books. The role of leader came as a small surprise - there were people on the team who seemed a lot more capable and although she had stepped in and taken charge when the fighting began, there were still others who played a massive role in the fight. Like the rabbit guy, who was like a bat out of hell. Or the other guy with the arm-thing. Still, it was the position that Ozpin trusted her with and she was not going to let him or her team down! She would be the best damn leader this school had ever had the grace of seeing! "Someone needs to teach those Catapult guys a lesson..." She murmured mindlessly, flitting her gaze over to the enraged senior team who looked like they had only just begun something they intended to finish. When Ozpin had finished his speech, she turned and eyed the other teams that were beginning to converse amongst one another. Looking around, she caught the eye of the guy who looked like he had just been extracted from some military aircrew. He looked a little scrawny compared to the rest of the students but then again, the same could be said for her. Was he the guy who apparently had a tank? Realising her team was staring at her, she turned back to them and fixed them with a confident smile. "Nice work, guys! I think we wrecked those Catapult guys, even if we don't look like it." This time, her smile was replaced by a bit of a giddy grin as she stared down at her legs, which were covered in cuts and bruises like the rest of them. The worst injury Rayna had sustained was a particularly bad burn to her wrist when the damn yoyo blew up right beside it. Like it or not, she was going to give those Catapult guys some old-fashioned justice! "Ok. You all look like crap. We can talk in the morning about my greatness and whatnot but now, we need to sleep." With that, she yawned before physically turning Jayden (not an easy task, might I add) and marching him in the direction of the exit. --- [b]A few hours later[/b] --- Rayna had pointedly decided that her team deserved a small lie-in for the battle they fought the day before. For that reason, she very kindly woke them with a shrill whistle at 6:30, not 6:00. "Woohoo! Team Jormungandr, whatever that means!" She seemed to be already kitted out in sports gear. "While you guys slept last night, I decided to formulate some plans and all that stuff, so I give you the [i]ultimate[/i] morning run." With that, she turned and quickly pinned up a poorly-sketched map of the grounds with various arrows and random drawings splattered across it. "First we start here and do a few quick laps around the dorm building. We next find those Catapult scum and throw stuff at their windows --their room is in this general area-- and finally, we arrive at the cafeteria to be the first there so we can eat and come back here to change." She seemed awfully proud of this wondrous plan as she grinned at them eagerly. "And I know what you'll probably say, 'But great leader, it's 6:30 in the morning and my poor wittle legs are tired.'" Her imitation of a male talking was hilariously horrid. "Well, I don't know if this will apply in your case, bunny-guy, but I do quote: 'The demand for bacon in the academy seems to be exceedingly high so I advise, if you do want some, to arrive on-time."
