NANI!?! (Hunt, with Maestus)

Some habits do die hard, especially when Valerie is still technically in training for her EMR certification. She occasionally wanders throughout the city, just looking for somebody to aid in any way or even a grimm to fight. Her combat skill has been getting rusty in her mind, so she actually hoped that a fight of some sort did break out. She shook her head. It was wrong to think like that, and that was the kind of thing that her old self would think about. No, no, no, that wasn't her anymore. She rounded the corner to the square of town, which was less busy than it normally was, but still pretty busy anyway. It was odd, the entire city seemed to be incredibly calm and was almost completely safe right now. This was a fully urban area, so she usually expected to see at least SOME sort of crime out and about near this time. She sighed and sat down on a nearby bench.

It takes a lot for someone used to violence at the mere sight of someone to maintain composure at a school filled with annoying or weak willed people.  That being said, sitting still and trying not to think about much while listening to her music was one of the very few things that actually relieved her stress.  So there she was, sitting in the middle of the town, just barely out of view of most people that passed by.  It was going to be a long, stressful and irritating journey, but she had to do her best if she was going to become an actual huntress.  Even if she didn't become a huntress, she had to at least do her best to learn how to control her anger.  After sitting down for a while, Maestus was distracted by someone walking past her and sitting down on a bench.  She could tell immediately that it was Valerie, since she saw the winged student before in another class.  She started to get the feeling that something was going to go wrong here, because most interactions Maestus has with students end in violence, despite her 'best' efforts.

The trio prowled in, in broad daylight, drawn by the crowds. The armor covering the three Beowulf mark them as some of the older and more intelligent of their kind, but then one would wonder why they wanted to strike in such a crowded and guarded area. But that was because they wanted to sow fear. They were not much smarter than their newer brethren, but they at least know what draws them from their slumber. So they decided, these three almost similar completely similar creatures, to attack during the most crowded time of day.

They slunk through an alleyway, waiting until they spotted a small group of those aura filled meat bags. Quickly they descended with claw and tooth and black fur covered muscles upon the civilians. They fell with screams and blood, which drew more screams. The fear and surprise drove the grimm into a blood frenzy, clawing and snapping at everything that drew near as they charged towards the center of town.

Valerie was instantly sprung into action the very moment that she heard the sound of a civilian in fear, she stood up and didn't even think for a fraction of a second about the danger of the situation. This was her duty, and she was going to perform it no matter what the cost was. She pounded her fists together and her barrier popped up as she rounded the corner to the alley. Valerie eyed the three Beowulf that seemed to miraculously appear, but she recognized that these were not the ordinary Beowulf that they would ordinarily expect, but she did wonder why exactly they were this far into the city. Granted, all of these thoughts occurred within the same half-second that she dropped down to her knee and tilted her shield. She flicked the switch to her laser module and aimed down the sight of her high-powered 9mm pistol. She fired a single shot directly at the chest of the nearest one to her.

Great. Maestus wasn't even nearly calmed down yet, and already some civilians started to scream and her fellow student sprinted towards what she assumed to be Grimm. She wanted nothing more than to ignore the situation until it ended, but not only was she technically supposed to go assist her student in a fight against these monsters, but it was also too loud for the music in her head to drown out. She let out a sigh, extended the claws in her hands and ran after Valerie. Unfortunately, she rounded the corner and ran right next to Valerie right as she fired her pistol, sending an annoying ringing sound through her ears. That was just enough to send her into a frenzy, just like she always did. The instant after Valerie fired her pistol, Maestus sprinted towards the three Beowulf, claws glowing and leaving a molten gold colored trail in the air. She pounced at one of them, falling into a slide before ripping apart it's belly.
