[u][b]Robert Fallson - The Lake[/b][/u]

The red-haired teen impacted with the water, causing quite a large splash. Robert stayed submerged for half a minute before sticking his head above the water and spitting it out like a fountain. [b]"Only now, after already having had the lake water in my mouth, did I just realize that this might not be the cleanest source to drink from. Oh well, can't do anything about it now,"[/b] he said. Taking a huge gulp of air, the boy dove back under the water. Unlike Shiro, he didn't have anything to keep his scroll dry so Robert left it with the rest of his belongings at the top of the cliff. With no light source and no re-breather, he was left with only one option, staying near the shallow ends of the lake.

Checking the shallow ends of the lake was boring and tedious work, but Robert didn't mind. It was certainly annoying that he had to swim back to the surface for air every minute or so, but just knowing that he was helping his friends was enough for him to not care. Since he didn't have any form of communication available to him, he had to keep looking at the blurry figures that were the other students checking the lake. It was when he looked to check on Shiro that he saw [i]it[/i]. A large tongue shot out from the dark and grabbed one of Ebon's drones. Robert didn't know what type of Grimm it was, but a tongue that huge would have to belong to a pretty large Grimm. The redhead swam to the surface for another gulp of air before diving back down, this time toward Shiro. He wanted to fire his weapons at the Ogdoad, but even if his weapons weren't still unable to fire thanks to the fight with Megaladeus, the tiger-faunas was way too close for Robert's comfort.
