Chapter 3

You flapped your wings harder than ever before and shot down before you even had time to process you were doing it. Faster and faster you went, pushing yourself to the limit and enhancing your body with your aura.

You made it, just in time.

The Beowolf in the lead was just a few feet behind and leaped into the air, mouth open and a snarl leaving its throat.

It definitely didn't expect you to full body tackle it and slam it into the ground with all your might. You heard the little girl squeal behind you as the ground shook beneath you and the Beowolf was pulped into a gory mess.

You were far too used to combat to stay idly though, especially in your weakened form. You reared up, a right heroic roar leaving your throat and glared at the other six Beowolves that skidded to a stop at your abrupt entrance.

They weren't idle for anything for than a scant few seconds, but it was enough. You beat your wings as hard as you could and let loose the new power you'd gained just a few minutes before.

Dozens of razor sharp feathers launched through the air, enhanced by your aura. They tore into a bunch of the Beowolves and four collapsed in bloody heaps, leaving only two standing.

You saw black smoke beginning to rise from the corpses and you turned. You thought you could take the other two, but you weren't going to risk the little girl.

"N-no!" she screamed as you bound towards her. She scrambled to her feet and you noted her bare knees were scraped a little. She tried to run away, but you were way to fast, especially when the smoke from the grimm you just killed sunk into you and made you even stronger.

You caught up to her in just a split moment and angled your head low. You caught her backside and lifted her up into the air, dropping her on your back.

"Eh?" she uttered in confusion. "Waa!" before screaming and grasping onto the fur of your back tightly when you took a running jump into the air and beat a hasty retreat into the sky.

"W-what s g-going on?" the little girl on your back stuttered as you got high into the air above any of the fighting going on down below.

You were just kinda glad she had enough strength to hold on okay.

"W-why did a grimm save me!?" she gasped in shock.

You turned your head and looked her in the eyes and now that you got a good look at her, she looked kind of familiar. Long brown hair, a cute cherubic little face. She was clad in a light pink dress and slinky socks. But it was the two long rabbit ears atop her ahead that stood out the most.

She looked a lot like that Faunus girl in the year above you. Velvet you thought her name was, you remembered because you had to tell off that cunt Cardin once for bullying her. Plus, she was pretty damn hot. She was one of the girls you had planned to ask to the dance if you hadn't gotten injured fighting Pyrrha Nikos in class and had to miss it.

You simply nodded your head at her, since you were unable to talk and any other sound you could make would probably just frighten her.

"You can understand me?" she gasped again.

You simply nodded.

"Wait!" she blinked, and then looked your body over, "Didn't you just use aura a minute ago!? I'm sure you did! I've seen my sister use hers a bunch so I know what it looks like!"

You were getting tired of only being able to nod. But you did once again.

Her cute chocolate coloured eyes went wide, "Oh my god! A Grimm with a soul!" she squeaked.

You couldn't help it, you let loose a frame shaking snigger. "Ah-ah! You're laughing at me to!"

__________

The girl on your back talked a mile a minute. You couldn't even really follow half the shit she was saying because you were too busy trying to think on what to do with her.

You couldn't take her with you for long. You didn't have the ability right now to protect her all too well. And anybody who saw you was liable to try shooting you down. That left finding people to leave her with as your only option, risky as it was.

So, towards the sound of gunfire you went. You needed to find people to leave her with safely.

You took off, flying towards the largest concentration of gunfire you could hear.

"Hey, where we going?" the bunny girl asked.

You rolled your eyes, letting loose a little huff. But before you could even attempt to try and find a way to convey your plans to her, a piercing shriek sliced through the air.

"Oh no!" she squealed, and you could feel her shivering in terror on your abck.

Whirling around to look behind you, you saw what made the noise, and your blood ran cold. Because swooping through the air towards you on giant wings bigger than a bus, was a god damn fucking Giant Nevermore!

'Fuck I'd have trouble taking one of these on normally!' you raged internally. Nevermind the fact that you were a tiny Griffon right now! This thing is way above your level right now.

You swiped your wings through the air and launched a barrage of quills shooting like bullets towards it. You didn't even keep an eye on to see if they hit, no, you swung yourself around and took off as fast as you could.

You heard the Giant Nevermore shriek again and assumed you managed to land a quill, but you weren't going to take the time to look!
