Zandrea took the lead as it was given to her "I think it's this way" pointed in a direction as she walked. "I wasn't expecting to find someone so quickly, I plan was to scout out anyone I seen but....kinda went out the window, sometimes it hard to keep my emotions in check when it comes to mothers childern"

They kept walking zandrea keeping her eyes open for any signs of grim, her hand was always ready to draw leaf from her side, since grim were drawn by negative emotions her tribe were always able to stay clear of the beasts.

"Any idea what we are looking for? I know its a temple but...temple can mean different things to different people"

Sarah smiled "to be fair I wasn't exactly quite. I couldn't have been that hard to find." she tilts her head at Zan. She followed her every now and then ducking under branches that probably don't even register as an obstacle to Zan. She rubs her chin at Zan's question. "Well I'm just assuming it'll be fairly obvious once we find it, something big and probably heavily damaged, all the grimm around here have probably trashed any trace of civilization." Sarah pulled out her minigun but switched it to shied mode.

She then looked down at Zan as they continued on. "I've got a quick question. When you talk about, mothers children. Your referring to the trees yes? So you have a really deep connection with nature?" She rubbed the back of her neck then shook her head. "Never mind me.. That question was far to invasive for someone who's just met you to ask...".

Zan thought for a moment and laughed to herself slightly "no its okay to ask, and yes my tribe are very much in tune with nature, its just hard for me to turn off that part and realize I might be coming off as creepy, my tribe live outside the kingdom, in a forest not unlike this one." she would look back time to time as she spoke looking at sarah "I am a open book so feel free to ask anything" she giggled "but yes when I speak of the mother, it is of the mother of life, the trees and plants are her children and the wind is her breath."

she stopped walking for a moment and gave it some deep thought "I can only imagine how crazy I sound, I never got alot of outside interaction before I was chosen to become a huntress, so its hard to turn off that part of my brain" she laughed to herself again looking at Sarah with a smile

Sarah returns the smile. "No you don't sound crazy, well maybe a little." Sarah smirked, she was unable to ignore the cuteness of Zan giggling. "I like to think of myself as a fairly open book to. so I guess we'll get to know each other fairly quickly." Sarah's smile only widened. "I got the first question, so I guess it's only fair you get the second.".

Sarah's head darted back, "did you hear something?". Sarah was already feeling quite protective of her new team mate. She seemed to cute and harmless to hurt anything, but Sarah was fairly sure this wasn't the case or else the little deer wouldn't be at Beacon.

Bizz waded through the plants, slashing away some of the bush that got in her way. Then, she heard something move in front of her, making her spring into alert stance. With the blade of Malice forward, Bizz slowly pushed a portion of a tree branch away to see who was in front of her.
"... Lucas?"
She said. In front of her was the faunus she met yesterday. And according to headmaster Ozpin's demonstration, he was supposed to be her partner for the next four years. 'Not bad.' She thought. He was one of the few who she got to talk to yesterday, and it was better than being partners with a complete stranger.
@Azure Flame

He skid to a halt in front of her and and asked "Byzantine, right? I guess we're partners now." Just then a Beowolf rose up behind her and he pulled out his sheath, turning it into a pistol and shooting it in the head.

"Thanks."
Bizz said shortly after noticing the Grimm behind her. To be sure, she slashed at its neck, severing the head from the body. The creature fell, its body motionless. She heard another emerge from the left of her. She jumped up, her platforms under her feet, and marched to its back. The Beowolf turned to strike her. Bizz jumped down and blocked with the platform. She spinned Malice, turning it into a shotgun, and fired it at the creature's face.

"Looks like you're fairly skilled as well, good." he said, smirking. "Let's go find that relic." He turned his pistol and katana back into the rifle and strung it on his back.

Bizz nodded. 'I've been training for eternity.' She thought. And there was no way she could forget it.
"Any idea where the temple is?"
She asked. Thoigh Ozpin gave them a hint, Bizz had no idea where it would be.

"No idea, but we came from that way." he said, pointing in the direction of the cliffs. "So we should probably head in the opposite direction to start."

'Quite reasonable.' Bizz thought as she switched Malice back into war scythe mode.
"That's a good start."
She said, following Lucas. The forest around her was quite silent, excluding the occasional gunshots she heard from far away. Everyone was running into the creatures of Grimm every now and then.

As they moved, they encountered several Beowolfs, but quickly dispatched them as they traveled throught he forest. However, all the noise that was being made woke something deep within the forest, as they all heard a loud screech.

Sarah looked up when she heard the screech. "That doesn't sound friendly." She looked down at her adorable companion. "How fast can you run?" Sarah asks this question because she knows that with her long legs she might easily outpace Zan and possibly lose track of her. But she didn't just want to do the idea she had in mind without asking first.

Hansa stopped a moment perched on a branch. He focused on listening again. He heard the sounds of weapons firing and the roars of Grimm but they were far off. “Geez I didn't think I went quite that far out…” he huffed. His ears twitched in the direction of screeching. He looked ad caught a glimpse of a flock of small Nevermore heading right for him. “Nope!” He flipped around the branch to get behind one and fired at it with his boot. He kicked another one away. He back flipped to the next tree and pulled out one of his throwing knives infused with Lightning Dust and threw it at the center of the flock. It his and burst out in sparks shocking the other Nevermore and they all fell to the ground. He let out a smile of satisfaction.

“Where is that temple? I know I'll run into someone there at least…” He huffed and looked around. “Maybe I should get a bit higher?” He quickly climbed to the top of the tree. “Damn can't see it still.” He looked up and spotted a giant Nevermore soaring through the sky. “I could definitely see from there!” Hansa grinned. He jumped up and landed on a weaker branch bending it back. Wrapping Pendulum around a nearby tree to pull it even further. As soon as he let go he was launched up. He fired his boots a few times as a boost and threw Pendulum up at the Nevermore as soon as it was in range. He swung around to land on its back. It immediately tried to knock him off so he held tight to its feathers. “Easy boy! I just need you to see for a bit! We can go back to killing each other later!”

Zandreas ears twitched at the sound and she looked over to Sarah right as she was asked about her speed "I..I can run" she nods and got ready to run towards unknown danger with Sarah.

"Chances are what ever danger we are about to get into is also where we need to be, so let's hit it partner" she smiled the happiness and joy from her smile seemed to shine as bright as the sun peaking though the trees

Sarah smiled back at Zan then nodded and started off towards the sound. She was indeed a very fast runner, tho her progress was severely slowed by branches. She kept an arm in front of her face to absorb the hits, she was used to this kind of thing from working on the farm. She was unperturbed by the small cuts she received as the pair ran through the forest. She couldn't help but feel excited, she was slightly disappointed how easy she shredded the beowolfs. "Who knows we might meet some others along the way!"

The screech tightened Bizz's grip on Malice. Whatever making the noise wasn't something as small as a Beowolf. Her guards were up as before.
"Did you hear that?"
She said.

"Yeah, whatever it is, it can't be good. We have to hurry." he said, picking up the pace.

Zandrea was much shorter by glided among the trees and branches in their way with ease a keen eye would notice she always dodged the branches none hitting her nor touching her "with the amount of students ozpin launched with us I am sure we will find someone else, this is so exciting" her hand rested on leafs hilt ready to draw it when need be "Ill have you know I am a fierce faunas warrior...rawr" she looked back once again as they ran and flashed another smiles at sarah

Sarah couldn't help but laugh a little as Zan says she's a fierce worrier. "Is it bad that you sound adorable when you say that?" Sarah had a joyful grin on her face. She may not have know this girl before but she was glad to know her now. Sarah notices Zan's evasive skill after a while, mostly because her view was obstructed by the branches Zan was avoiding. Jeez she's good. Sarah thought to herself, Sarah was far to big and slow to pull off such evasive moves. She was alright with that tho, that's why she has a minigun.

Bizz followed Lucas as he speeded up. She wompndered what kind of Grimm would make that much noise. 'At least it's not one of those small ones we took care of.' She thought. The screech was loud, and terrifying. 'I just hope we make it without any trouble.' She tried to catch a glimpse of whatever it was, but couldn't see anything from her point of view.
