Ch 37: Pack attack.
"So, we still have time before nightfall. Let us track that Grimm to its pack. Remember to stay down wind from it." Oobleck says
"How long will that take?" Ruby asks
"Grimm have been known to be isolated from its pack for months at a time." Oobleck says
"And there is the pack, no one panic." Kyra says realizing if one of them has any bit of internal panic they will attract the entire pack towards them.
Weiss starts shaking.
"They see us." Oobleck says
"Yeah, they smell fear someone got scared." Kyra says looking at the 50+ grimm looking I their direction.
"S-so what did we do?" Weiss asks
"Well, it is flight or fight, and three of us are not able to boost our speed with our semblance." Oobleck says
"I can boost my speed, I just can't control it." Yang says
"Okay, 2 would run too slowly to get away, so show me what you got." Oobleck says
"Kyra, can you please sit this one out." Ruby asks
"Fine." Kyra says pulling a sniper rifle out of the Pip-boy.
The other 4 suddenly split and run into different directions.
Kyra grabs Professor Oobleck and takes him to a roof to watch.
Out of the 50+ Grimm 20 followed Ruby, 20 after Yang, 13 after Blake, and 7 after Weiss.
"Already off to a bad start." Kyra says
"Yes, they are waisting energy splitting up however it turns the enemies advantage in numbers into manageable numbers." Oobleck says
Ruby suddenly turns around and fires a barrage of dust at the Grimm following her taking 6 out.
"Right after I told her not to waste ammo." Kyra says
"Yes, you have plenty of spare though." Oobleck says
"True however if I am not with them. I don't want to leave them with that kind of habit." Kyra says
Ruby switches the crescent Rose to scythe mode and launches herself at the 14 remaining Grimm.
"30 shots 6 kills... I should train her in shooting." Kyra says
"So you seem like you have done missions like these before." Oobleck says
'I used to do high adventure in high school mountain climbing, white water rafting, backpacking for miles. I know all the basics for a scouting trip.' Kyra thinks but doesn't answer.
"If it's hard to talk about you don't have to." Oobleck says
"Usually I would be upset at Ruby for running in like that without an exit strategy however her semblance is the ultimate tool for hit and run tactics. While she's using it she's immune to attacks." Kyra says then looks over at Blake.
"She's using her semblance too much and using to much stamina. Her reaction time is godly and she always has an exit strategy." Kyra says
"I wonder where she learned that. However it doesn't seem like she is used to prolonged battles." Oobleck says
"None of them are used to prolonged battles." Kyra says as she looks over at Yang to see her punch a Grimm into a building.
"Yang is not using her ammunition, however I don't know if she's doing that because she is trying to conserve ammo. Or maybe she just wants to fight bare fisted for the thrills." Kyra says
"Thrill seeker?" Oobleck asks
"She wants to travel the world and fight to get her blood pumping. Luckily she likes to help people on the side." Kyra says then looks at Weiss.
"She's doing worst of all." Kyra says
"Waisting way to much energy she also had the least amount of Grimm." Oobleck says
Wiess is the second one that killed all of her Grimm after Ruby.
=================
Weiss POV
Stabbing the last grimm in its weak spot it slumps over dead.
Weiss lets her guard down to catch her breath.
"How does Kyra do it, these Grimm are monsters." She says gasping for breath.
Unknown to her during her fight she managed to attract an 8th Grimm.
Weiss hears a growl just behind her.
She turns around to see a Beowolf with its mouth open inches from her face.
Weiss screams.
And suddenly the head on the Beowolf pops like a balloon.
==================
Kyra's POV
"She let her guard down it's almost like she wants to die." Kyra says holding her sniper rifle with smoke coming out of the barrel.
"Well done." Oobleck says realizing that Kyra is somehow actually really experienced at this stuff.
"If I handled everything for them how are they supposed to grow." Kyra says grabbing Oobleck and hoping down from the building. To see a tired Blake, a exhausted Weiss, yet a normal Ruby, and an excited Yang.
"Can you leave me down here I wish to talk to your teammates." Oobleck says
"Wish to find out about them for yourself?" Kyra asks
Oobleck nods.
"Go right ahead I will be protecting them from the shadows. Hopefully they can grow and learn. Maybe they will understand themselves better by the end of the mission." Kyra says with a smile holding her High impact .50 caliber sniper rifle that she doesn't sell through Stark industries.
