Merel understood enough from Darian's look to keep quiet for now, but when Alice asked about her childhood she felt a similar worry come up. How would they explain this entire situation anyway? Helena had believed her daughter to be dead for years now, she likely had moved on already. Would she accept their word as anything other than wishful thinking? Before she could think more on the matter and doubt her choice to pursue this chance any further she was interrupted by the loud roar of a massive grimm, followed by the appearance of two enormous Hellcats ahead of them.

"There you are" Helena said out loud and she had already dodged the leaping attack of the large grimm. Despite its size and more armoured appearance it was just as agile and even faster than its younger counterparts in the pack she had been hounding for days now. Finally they had led her to their leader, if you could call it that. Helena never knew for certain if Grimm had the same social concepts as normal beasts in Remnant, but she knew that the smaller Hellcats were trailing a larger older alpha, or in this case two. With practiced hands she sent the Stormreader higher and kept retaliated against the Alpha that tried to catch her craft.

"Look at the size of those beasts!" Merel exclaimed in amazement as she saw the massive Grimm leap towards Helena's VTOL, feeling the shock of its landing even while looking just as graceful as the smaller hellcats still following after the other Alpha. Helena had dodged the attack well before the beast had even come close to her and her weapons responded with a new stream of green bolts streaking across the sky. This time the sound of the plasma cannons had shifted to a more ponderous rhythm that hammered into the ground and the Hellcat Alphas it turned to again face its attacker. Merel wondered briefly if she should open fire on the Hellcat or avoid its attention as they were much easier to attack than the aircraft. Seeing it thunder back towards them with insane speed she made her decision and turned her attention to the grimm ahead of her, sword and cannon at the ready, pushing the doubt and worry away until after the fighting was done.
