The Night Runner, sensing movement and human emotion all around it, began snapping and thrashing violently. It tried to pursue one of the Hunters attacking it, but found itself stuck, unable to move it's massive bulk without the help of it's legs. Like any other wounded animal, it panicked and began flicking it's body from side to side, like a fish on dry land, trying to fend off the barrage of attacks.

Laura stood by, feeling useless against the beast. It's thrashing made melee combat impossible, and her darts would never pierce the Grimm's armor. Gotta find a soft spot... Her focus fell on the stumps of it's legs, oozing rosy blood from where Asura cut them off.

This is going to hurt.... Laura thought. She took aim and mouthed a silent "Sorry." to the creature before emptying her clip, her last 3 darts striking the soft tissue inside the beast's legs, unleashing a cocktail of venoms. The Grimm screamed in hurt and outrage.

For a long time, nothing happened, but the Grimm finally began slowing down, struggling less and less until it finally fell limp. Laura couldn't tell if it was unconscious or dead.

She sighed in releif and turned back to the rest of the crew. Thompson stood with a team of cameramen, who had apparently been standing there filming the whole encounter. Thompson's face was lit up with joy and excitement as she reviewed the footage. "Perfect! Just beautiful! I see star potential in all of you!" she told the group.

"Well, it's been a fun evening with you lot, but we still have an expedition to go on. Back to business!" She began leading the film crew back to the trailers.

(Two hours later:)

Laura sat on top of the ammo trailer, mixing up new poisons from the supplies and filling them into empty darts, careful not to spill any chemicals when the trailers rocked across uneven ground. The crew had quickly packed up their stuff and started moving. Perhaps eager to get away from the Grimm infested forest?

"Expedition's barely started and i've almost killed myself, like six times in one night..." Laura muttered to herself. At this rate, they were in for a hell of a long ride...

(Do you guys wanna sit and chat during the journey, or just timeskip between Grimm encounters?)
