She smiled at his advice, and mumbled a brief "Sorry," before turning to her opponents. Normally, Zhu-li's timid nature kept her from fights and conflict, but she doubted the Grimm would extend her that courtesy. Besides, it would be unfair to leave Amilanthior to deal with all of them, even if he was winning.

A slender dagger appeared in her hand, and she attacked. Leapfrogging over a boarbatusk and catching it's tusk as it passed below, then sliding under and slipping the blade through it's heart. Clean and precise, she didn't like needless violence, even when killing.

Two Ursai charged her at once, and she slipped between the lead Grimm's feet, thrusting up and into the gut. But before it fell the monster twisted violently, snapping her weapon. It's partner raised a clawed foot to stomp her prone form...

...and met the ground. Zhu-li twisted aside and scrambled to safety, angry bear hot on her heels. She parkour vaulted over the trench she just climbed from, and the Grimm stopped to avoid falling in, roaring at her from the other side.

Then it died, an ice javelin through it's chest.

Strangely enough, there were no Grimm on her side of the trench, and she thought of calling Amilanthior over to relative safety.

"Ami-" she began, but a flash of red caught her eye, and she turned behind. At that moment she realized: It wasn't that there were no Grimm there, they were all already dead.

She gasped in horror at the sight. Dozens of mutilated bodies ripped limb from limb with extreme prejudice. An arm here, a torso there. She resisted the urge to vomit violently. Did he do this? No, not even Amilanthior could be so brutal.

"Son of a fuck!" Dawn exclaimed, impressed beyond manners''. So much for weakling... ''She had to do something fast to beat him.

The heavyweights were long gone, but she spotted a clutch of small, weak looking Grimm. Rabbits? ''Well, quantity over quality. They'd still count as kills.'' She stomped one to death, and the rest bolted for safety.

"Oi! Get back here!" she roared at the fleeing Al'Mi'Raj, pursuing through the woods with cries of "Your furry ass is mine!!" and other, similar vulgarities. She singled out one hapless rabbit and plowed through a clump of bushes after it.

Dawn almost stabbed the other girl in the clearing, stopping her blade mere inches from her throat. A few inches above, her expression was pure terror and shock. "Damn!" she screamed, angry that the rabbit had gotten away.

But then she looked around, and almost dropped Titaness with suprise. "Dayum..." as she saw the bodies. "You did this?"

"No!" Zhu-li replied, voice rising with reproach at the accusation.
