The Exams
Cyan enjoyed herself as she was free-falling. Felt like all of her problems were gone.
But as she felt gravity return, she quickly began to panic.
'Shit. Shit. Shit. SHIT!' Was what passed through her panicked mind.
Suddenly she remembered the spool of dust wire she kept on her. As quickly as possible, Cyan tied it around the ends for a couple of spare knives she had and tossed them in opposite directions. To her luck, they both stuck on either end and she was able to grab ahold of the wire, halting her descent.
She gave a sigh of relief.

Ozpin, on the other hand, wanted to see what she looked like mad.
So he did something even Glynda thought was childish.
---
"Miss Rubellite, your cheating." He calmly stated.
Cyan looked up at him in disbelief. "What?!"
She watched as he cut the dust wire.
The dual funaus felt gravity pull her towards the ground once more and proceeded to Curse the headmaster out. "Silver you right Prick! I was within rules and you know it! Fucking pedo! When I'm done with this your pretty little face will look like a pan of fried ass-!"
She then hit the water to her semi-relief. She quickly surfaced and snarled. "Thank you very FUCKING much Oz! Do you know how heavy my tail gets when soaked like this?! Like a fifty pound weight!" She waded out of the creek and proceeded to wring her tail and sleeves out. "You are so fucking lucky my weapon is waterproof! Otherwise, you'd be the new head MISTRESS! I'm going to so~ get you back for this Silver!"
"Fucking cold!"
---
He listened to her threats and thought she looked quite fetching angry and dripping with water.
Glynda looked at him, stunned he was acting so childish. Even as Cyan walked away she could still hear some of the insults to his manhood, character, and reputation. She was wondering if she'd have to play bodyguard to her friend. Turning to the said man, she knew she'd have to get Qrow to stick around for a while.
Oz had a small yet goofy smile on his face. He turned to the deputy headmistress and stated. "It seems she likes me."
For the first time, since the time of Team STRQ, did Glynda facepalm. "Ozpin... I've got only one thing to say to that..." She looked him straight in the eye and stated. "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."
He turned a bit pale at that and cleared his voice. "Um.. on with the test!" Quickly looking back at his scroll where he had been watching Ruby Rose and Wiess Schnee getting paired together.
---
Cyan continued on in the direction of the ruins. The whole way she mumbled obscenities about Ozpin under her breath.
"When I get my hands on the caffeine-deprived beat-nic, he's going to wish he had never pissed. Me. Off."
With a groan, Cyan wrung out her kimono sleeve once more. Finally calmed down, she 'looked' around to find she was in what seemed to be a less used part of the Emerald Forest. The tree canopy was denser and less light could be seen. Vines blocked much of the paths through the trees, so Cyan took out Xia and began to cut away some of the vines so she could get through.
Apparently, this only made the Beowulf pack that had been roaming nearby, notice her presence sooner.
Cyan had caught the sound of their growls and snarls. She quickly selected a song she had recorded for when she dealt with this particular type of Grimm.
Soon enough the melody began, and she was surrounded by the entire pack of wolf-like Grimm.
"Go row the boat to safer grounds
But don't you know we're stronger now
My heart still beats and my skin still feels
My lungs still breathe, my mind still fears
But we're running out of time (time)
For the echo's in my mind, cry"
Cyan threw Xia and decapitated three Grimm while she used Echo to fire off Dust rounds into two others. With a flip and a jump, the dual funas caught her over-sized bracelet and began to cartwheel about as she sliced off the limbs of the Beowulf's. The song still playing.
"There's blood on your lies
Disguise opened wide
There is nowhere for you to hide
The hunter's moon is shining"
The pack was getting desperate as they began to attack her more fiercely. This mattered little to the woman. She was to keep up her facade of a student as long as possible. She wasn't going to let a pack of wanna be where-wolves get in her way.
'I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the'
Suddenly a roar was heard and what was left of the Beowulf pack backed away from Cyan. She turned to see the biggest Beowulf in her life. Standing on its hide legs at what she could only assume as ten feet tall, bone armor spikes longer than her and as thick and her thigh protruded from its body. Teeth that would gladly render flesh from bone, fur black as tar and eyes that glowed with hell fire.
The pack's alpha had arrived.
'Trick or treat, what would it be?
I walk alone, I'm everything
My ears can hear and my mouth can speak
My spirit talks, I know my soul believes
'But we're running out of time (time)
For the echo's in my mind, cry'
Cyan didn't give into the alpha's roar. Lifting her tail high, she bore her teeth and her ears were erect.
Challenging him.
And he accepted.
'There's blood on your lies
Disguise opened wide
There is nowhere for you to hide
The hunter's moon is shining
The Alpha Wolf gave a guttural roar as he charged at Cyan. She jumped to the side and expanded her Chakram triple it's normal size as she dances around the Alpha Grimm easily avoiding its claws.
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
He had gotten her once, but it was only superficial. A torn top was far easier to replace than a limb. Tearing off her left sleeve, Cyan merely growled as she charged the Alpha.
It can cause betrayal it hurts
I can't be dreaming
The night deceives us,
A million voices inside my dreams
My heart is left so incomplete
He roared in anger as she charged him and he met her head on. Cyan wasn't a funas who lived on her baser side though. Jumping high she pulled a spool of dust wire from her pocket and wrapped it around the alpha's neck.
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the
I'm running with the
I'm running with the
I'm running with the wolves
Swinging off the Beowulf's back Cyan then let the Grimm run for a moment...
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
Then she pulled with everything she had. A wet choke was heard behind her.
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
I'm running with the wolves tonight
I'm running with the wolves
Turning back, Cyan found the alpha Beowulf's corpse slowly dissipating and it's pack backing away.
She stood proudly, her tail held high as she let out a long triumphant howl. She had won and the pack quickly left that area.
Cyan groaned. "I can't believe this... This was my favorite top...."
She then put away her weapon and proceeded to climb a tree.
---
The way she was doing it, made a certain silver-haired man snort. "She looks like a squirrel!" He watched as she flicked her tail twice once she reached the top, just like a squirrel. Making him almost burst into laughter.
---
Cyan looked at the terrain, searching for these 'ruins'. "Ah, that must be them over there."
The crimsonette then made her way to the ruins, tree hopping along the way.
