[b]Kiran Ali Khan[/b] "[color=#B7410E]Didn't we just have a discussion on collateral Taidan?[/color]" Came the answer from KNVS' leader, as the young Hunter surveyed the area around him. Not having signal was mildly troublesome, mostly from a communications standpoint, but for Kiran it had minimal impact on his overall performance. After all, what kind of Hunter couldn't even track down his prey? The broodling paths were the obvious indicator that they were close, and where those paths met was where they would find the nest. It brought to Kiran's mind an old saying from his village, [i][color=#B7410E]When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion.[/color][/i] Now it was time to test its validity. "[color=#B7410E]Alright,[/color]" Kiran began, as he turned to face the rest of his team and give them his decision, "[color=#B7410E]while normally I'd opt for a quick and efficient attack. After all the sooner we finish, the sooner we get to play smash. But, today we have the honour of illustrating to Miss Noelle how Beacon's finest accomplish their missions.[/color]" Kiran explained, as he gestured to Noelle, "[color=#B7410E]In addition I wish to allow for our new teammate to better assess our abilities to determine where she might fit in on the team. As such I suggest that until we reach the nest, Varius, Taidan and myself shall alternate between taking point on the assault. This way, while we face relatively weaker Grimm, Miss Noelle will able to assess each of us on our individual merit to understand how she might assist them on future missions. The rest of us will merely provide the point guard with support in the event of an enemy getting too close.[/color]" "[color=#B7410E]However[/color]," this time the swordsman's tone carried a weight his earlier remarks lacked, "[color=#B7410E]should we encounter more dangerous enemies, I want whoever is on point to pull back and allow us to take down the foe as a team. After all there is little merit in being reckless or overconfident. With that understood, who wishes to showcase their skills first?[/color]"
