As she dropped down from tge trees and began walking toward him, Grigori watched and examined his new partner. She seemed thin and graceful,  light on her feet. She appeared to be his opposite in many ways, which he didn't mind. As she stopped and bowed in font of Grigori, he followed suit as a respect, smiling as he returned to his upright posture. 

When she told him that she would take care of the Grimm, Grigori gave her a nod and gestured toward the beast as he backed away from it and behind her. This would give him a chance to observe her abilities to a small extent, enough for the time being. As she knocked over the tree with her fan and lifted it with a small whirlwind, Grigori guessed that her semblance involved using the air. He watched contentedly as she pierced and shattered the Ursa Major.

"Well let me say that it is my pleasure to meet you, Ezmeralda," Grigori responded, his voice deep and smooth, after she revealed her name to him. "My name is Grigori Zoloti." He flashed a warm smile at her before turning, facing away from the cliff the students were launched from. "We need to go this way, deeper into the woods. I hope you're ready for whatever we find in there..." a small chuckle punctuated the sentence, showing that Grigori expected to have some fun.

Without wasting time, he began to move forward, calling back, "We should hurry, we might be able to do this before the other pairs!" He sprinted through the forest, running on the balls of his feet in order to move faster. Grigori didn't know how to pace his runs, always sprinting full speed when needing to move quikly. He didn't care about pace though, he knew he was a sprinter and not a long distance runner, and embraced it by charging full speed ahead, an unstoppable juggernaut. He ran like this for as long as he could, until he needed to slow down to catch his breath, figuring Ezmeralda might need to catch up anyway.
