Fenrir's stomach dropped as he felt himself being lifted into the air as the jump pad launched him skyward. He found himself thinking that he rather did not enjoy this experience as he fell towards the forest. He decided to try and land in a clearing so not take any unnecessary damage from the trees.
Pulling Fang and Claw form their holsters on his thighs he fired them off, using their recoil to rapidly slow his decent. He changed his grip on the weapons so that he was holding them upside down and when he reached the clearing he drove the bayonets into the side of a tree. Having stopped his momentum he dropped down and decided to start moving in the direction Professor Ozpin had indicated the temple to be. He hadn't even made it five feet before they were on him. The black fur, the almost razor like claws, those soulless red eyes hidden behind the white masks.
The speed they at which they set upon him would have been the end of most people, so imagine their surprise when the Beowolves found themselves facing down the barrels of his weapons right away. Thanks to his aura and his natural predatory instincts he had sensed them before he even landed in that clearing. The first Beowolf pulled up short in shock as it saw him raising Claw to face it. Fenrir smirked as he pulled the trigger, "This is going to be fun," he thought as the creature's head disintegrated. He brought Fang up to meet the claws of another Beowolf. Flipping Claw to chamber another round he thrust its blade into the beast's chest and fired. The monster was flung back into one of its comrades sending both into a nearby tree.
Fenrir's smirk slowly turned into a grin as he fought, he loved the sensations he experienced during battle, it was the one time that he never felt nervous or stressed. Simply put, it was the one time that he felt truly alive. He was almost in a haze as he killed the Grimm one after another. He was so focused on it that he didn't notice an alpha Beowolf coming at him from his right side, where his eye was covered by the eye patch. The monster smashed into him with such force that he was sent across the clearing, crying out in pain as he was struck again causing him to smash through five trees.
Fenrir knew that he was in trouble, even with his aura protecting him from most of the attack he had still taken a lot of damage. Looking around he spotted his weapons a few feet away. He tried to stand but a spasm of pain brought him to his knees. He barely had time to register where the pain was before the Beowolves surrounded him. "So this is how it ends huh," he spoke with bitter sadness filling his voice. Slumping against the stump of the tree he had land next to he closed his eye, reading himself for what was coming next. He felt the hot, putrid breath of the Beowolves on his face then a sharp pain against his head as one of the beasts struck him and then, nothing.
He was stirred from his unconscious state by the sound of gun fire close by. He tried to open his good eye but was still having trouble getting his body to do what he wanted.
"Urgh," he said as the pain in his body came back. Slowly opening his eye he saw Aria standing over him holding out her hand.
"I guess we're partners now," she said with a smile on her face. Fenrir was taken aback for a second but then he saw something that made his blood run cold. The alpha Beowolf had pretended to be dead to get the drop on Aria when she had her guard down. Fenrir didn't have time to think about the pain coursing through his body or that he didn't have Claw or Fang with him. He turned his fingernails into claws, an ability that faunus that shared traits with predatory animals could do, and strengthen then with his aura. Pushing Aria aside he lunged at the monster as it pounced toward the girl. His claws pierced the beast's chest with astounding force. Twisting his hand for good measure he ripped it out of the Grimm chest along with its heart. He threw the heart aside and then collapsed when he was sure that the threat was abated. Aria caught him before he hit the ground.
He looked up to her smiling, "thanks partner."
She looked, "You saved my life."
"Just returning the favor"
She laughed, "Well then let's see about getting you fixed up."
