Hey is the next upload. Sorry if this is short also. Im doing a lot of things for the end of the semester. So this is last on my list to worry about. But I hope you like it nonetheless. Its a chapter with all 4 of them on how they first meet.
Again sorry if its not long.


Someone tall came out from behind the wall of bushes. It was a male. He was rubbing his head sheepishly. It was Kalt Dyr.

"Sorry...I uh. Didn't mean to sneak up on you."

Kalt said with a smile.

Shayna did a small sigh. "Oh it's just you, I thought it was someone else. I see we've meet again Kalt."

"Yeah...So since we found each other and uh... we need to be in pairs…." Kalt trailed off.

"Yeah, lets go." Shayna nodded.

They started walking again. Shayna admitted another mint green aura around her. Kalt looked at her in confusion.

"Are you uh… using your semblance?" Kalt asked.

Shayna nodded. "Yeah, it helps me sense the things around me."

Kalt looked confused. "Senses things?"

Shayna nodded again. "Yeah. I'm actually blind."

Kalt looked slightly surprised. "Oh...uh..you're blind? Meaning...You can't see anything?"

Shayna nodded again, but she didn't say anything afterwards.

They walked in silence for most of the time until they heard something coming to their right.

Shayna then immediately spoke up. "Careful Kalt, three beowulfs ahead." Shayna warned him while taking out her weapon that was attached to her back.

Kalt knew it was time to fight. He equipped his dual battle axes. They had a runic look to them.

The three beowulfs jumped out from the bushes and snarled at both Shayna and Kalt.

Kalt looked ready to take them down. But before he could two people from behind the three beowulfs killed them before Kalt could.

One of the two people was a girl that had two color eyes, wearing a greek style cuirass, the other was a boy, he had a flat black hair with an ahoge to the side.

The one with the ahoge spoke up.

"Ha! These guys were easy!" He sheathed his Rapier-Rifle looking weapon.

The girl with two eye colors, both of her weapons which was twin bronze swords disappeared from her hands.

Shayna cracked a small smile. "Hey those were our kills!"

The boy looked over at Shayna and Kalt. "I went all out, I see grimm, I kill them."

The girl next to him didn't say anything.

Kalt spoke up after putting away his twin battle axes. "Uh...um it seems like you guys made it far into the Emerald Forest."

The girl finally spoke up, "I did. I found this guy beating up a bunch of Beowulfs in a nearby clearing."

"Like I said, I went all out! Haha!" The boy said as he put his hands on his hips with a prideful look on his face.

"Shayna Prasinos by the way. Nice to meet ya." Shayna shook her head at the boy.

"Oh...Uh Kalt Dyr is my name." Kalt merely smiled.

The girl spoke up, "Rivera Jacquelyn Hyde. Rivera or Jacquelyn is just fine please."

The boy spoke up after her. "Makoto Inazuka. Nice to meet ya too!"

"Soo...uh were you two going to the temple before the beowulf pack?" Kalt asked.

"Yeah we were." Rivera nodded.

"I guess since it's our job to go there anyway. Why don't we all go?" Shayna offered.

The other three just nodded in response. They all started heading out.

After a few moments they finally reached the temple. Inside the temple was a wall full of gems.

Both Shayna and Rivera stepped up to grab one. They both grabbed a Blue Sapphire, pocketed and headed out of the temple.

"It's almost midnight. We should head back to the Academy." Shayna shrugged.

"I agree." Kalt nodded.

Both Shayna and Kalt started to walk, the other two following without saying anything.

The ground suddenly shakes, and trees start to fall a few feet in front of them.

Shayna's semblance activated.

"It's a Deathstalker! It looks like it's time to fight!" Shayna told the others.

The Deathstalker came running at full force. Stopping in front of the four.

Kalt and Rivera switched out to their long distance weapons, Rocket Launcher and Crossbow respectively, trying to find any openings, Leaving both Shayna and Makoto to to take the charge towards the grimm.

Shayna jumped and took out her bo staff, she did a downward smash on the head of the grim.

Makoto took out his Rapier and went to stab its tail.

Kalt shot out ice dust toward the grimm. It made ice shards around its legs, stopping it in its place. Kalt spotted the ice shards.

"Shayna toss me a few ice shards!" Kalt shouted.

Shayna after bashing the grim a few times did what she was told and broke a few ice shards and tossed them to Kalt.

Kalt caught the Ice and held it in his hands adsorbing it all.

Shayna looked at the Ice-Absorbed Kalt, backed off and switched to her dual submachine guns, letting Kalt switch to his Battle Axes.

Makoto and Rivera looked somewhat surprised at the tall guy, practically looking supercharged wildly swinging his axe at the grimm.

Rivera, not wanting to risk her chance to hit the grimm, activated her semblance which splits herself into two, switched to bronze swords and started going over to slice the grimm all over.

Makoto backed off and switched to his rifle with a bayonet on it and shot/stabbed the at the Deathstalker tail.

After a few moments the grimm died and the battle with it was over.

Everyone looked somewhat winded.

Makoto did a small sigh. "You guys are pretty good at fighting! Kalt, you became an Ice Tank! Nothing stopped you!" He then laughed.

Shayna chuckles a bit. "Its getting dark, let's head back the academy before a search party is sent after us."

Shayna got up from the ground without listening for a reply. Kalt followed suit and followed Shayna leaving Makoto and Rivera.

"I think it would be better to go back." Makoto got up from where he was and followed the other two.

Not wanting to be left behind. But having no choice Rivera got up and followed the three of them.
