Rika frowned as she lost sight of the Grimm she had been chasing. The pigtailed girl had woken up early tonight determined to continue her training and knowing that there was one major issue with the training she’d done recently she needed to fix as soon as possible. Mostly, this was that she simply hadn’t finished the practical aspect of it, and there were a lot of things she still needed to wait for an actual combat situation before she could try them, since planning only really helped in theory.
Besides training alone in the woods could only keep someone occupied for so long, and that problem only intensified for somebody as hyperactive as Rika. That was why she was looking for some Grimm to fight in the first place, since just plain sitting around was starting to get real boring and all. The cheerful redhead wasn’t the type to attract many Grimm though, not really thinking much on depressing stuff or things like that. But There were enough of the creatures around the forest for the Pigtailed girl to have managed to find something, following the brief glimpse of black and red that she’d caught to where she is. Immediately she’d started to follow the Grimm, not thinking to use any sort of stealthy pursuit and opting instead for simply charging after the creature of darkness eagerly. The chase had already taken her out of the forest, and the pigtailed girl worried she’d have to track down her pet afterwards before that worry gave way to impatience when she realized she had no clue where the Grimm went.
The cat faunus frowned, before deciding to give up any semblance of subtlety she hadn’t already given up. “Hey come out ya jerks, I know ya aint gone or nothin’!” She called out. The pigtailed girl shifted into a stance, drawing her whip with a single gesture that caused a loud crack to resound through the area. It was surprising how different It felt, as she hadn’t had time to try it out since the upgrade she’d gotten for it recently. Hermes appeared out of the brush behind her, looking lazy before seemingly sensing something. She’d almost forgotten he’d come with her, but apparently the kitten had already become attached to it’s redheaded master. It stiffed notably for a moment, the lazy look changing immediately into a more serious one as the cat let out a hiss of warning. Rika knew enough about animals to know he was sensing something out there, smirking before turning her attention to where the Cat was focused on.
