As Arara approached the island on her lilypad-construct, with intentions of circling along the shore afterwards. Unlike Orion, she wasn't going all out in terms of speed, deciding to pace herself at the moment. She'll save her effort for later, to deal with anything unexpected. After all, there was an unreasonable amount of tunnels and pathways under the island. She did not like that at all. Still too many uncertainties. If another abnormal current blew the data cache off, she'd have to be reacting. She didn't like to simply be reacting.

But a ping from her WATCH notified her that Orion was about to say something, and she activated it, listening to his message. He had obtained the cache, which was good, but then, he cut off his own message, and Arara narrowed her eyes.

There was a reason for his silence. There indeed was something underwater, a Grimm or a group of them that were preparing for an ambush after the 'bait' was taken. And then, in the background, she could hear the crumbling of rock, followed by an explosion, the sound of a whole lake's worth of water careening into the cavern Orion was in.

It was such a logical plan that she questioned whether Grimm were as mindless as she thought.

If your target is on land, and you were stronger in the water, just change the terrain into one that benefited yourself. Simply knock a hole into the wall and watch the cavern fill up.

She doubted that most of her message would have gotten through to him, but she could hope. The map was showing that he was being swept northward next, and Arara immediately turned around, clicking her tongue. Holding her spear in her left hand and clenching her right, the huntress did a quick check on her Aura reserves, spent thirty seconds making sure that the Aura she drew into her legs was utilized as effectively as possible, and then kicked off her lilypad platform.

With one bound, she covered a quarter of the length of the lake. Landing on a small Aura platform, she jumped off again. Continually building up momentum from each consecutive run, Arara was pretty much flying through the air by the time she was on her tenth jump, her Aura reserves now properly warmed up, boiling like engine oil as she poured all her focus onto speed, trusting that her White Rakshasa would protect her from any stray twigs.

Terrain-based challenges really were her weakness. She would have to work on that in the future.
