"Fire Style: Great Fireball Jutsu!"
An explosion of fire could be heard throughout the Emerald Forest making heads turn towards that direction.
"Wonder what's happening over there." Ruby says while Weiss scoffs.
"Hurry up you dolt! That's pretty close to where we need to be." Weiss says pushing through the shrubbery. Ruby hesitates for a moment before following the white haired girl.
Meanwhile, further ahead of them Yang is walking around.
"Hellooooo? Is anyone out there? Hellooo?" She calls out. She stops and raises her arms. "I'm getting bored here!" She yells then hears rustling in the bushes behind her. "Ruby, is that you?"
A low, inhuman growl is heard, and Yang's head rises up as she stares at the Grimm.
"Nope!"
Yang quickly rolls to the side as an Ursa charges out. She gets up and activates Ember Celica, staring at the Grimm before another Ursa runs out behind her. She leaps over it, and it's companion runs at her again, only to get knocked back by a fiery punch. The other Ursa and Yang charge at each other, and Yang slides under it and delivers several punches and a kick sending the grimm flying back.
"You guys wouldn't happen to have seen a girl in a red hood, would you?" The Ursa merely growled at her. "You could just say 'no'."
One of the Ursai stands on it's legs and swipes at her twice, Yang barely dodging the attacks.
"Geeez, you two couldn't hit the broad side of a ba..."
Before she can complete her insult, a single strand of her golden hair falls in front of her face and lands on the forest floor.
"You..." She closes her eyes, then opens them to reveal crimson red, making the Ursai look at each other confused before Yang screams. "You monster!!!"
An Inferno surrounds Yang for a moment, and she rockets forward, unleashing a devastating combo of flaming hits and blows on the offending Ursa, making it fly through several burning trees. The other one runs over, but stops short at Yang's gaze while a tree falls to the ground behind her.
"What! You want some, too?!"
The Ursa rears up and prepares to strike... right when a whirling noise is heard and the monster makes a noise, falling down a second later to reveal Blake Belladonna.
"I could've taken him."

It's been approximately thirty minutes since Irelyn and Indra teamed up with each other.
"Wait," Indra sticks her arm out infront Irelyn.
"What's the matter? Is something wrong?" Irelyn questions. Indra puts a finger up to her lips silencing her.
Leaves blow around the two girls as Indra's eyes dart from left to right.
"Jump!"
Bursting out is an abnormally giant snake charging towards them.
(*HIISSSSS!!!*)
Irelyn jumps to a tree branch as Indra forms hand signs.
"Earth style: Stone Pillar!"
She slams her hands onto the forest floor and a pillar of stone erupt from under her lifting her up as the snake crashed into the pillar making it collapse on itself.
Indra lands on the ground behind it and looks up at Irelyn.
"You okay?" She asks and Irelyn nods.
"I'm fine, but that isn't any grimm I've ever seen before." Irelyn says.
"That's because it's not a grimm."
The snake rises back up and bares it's fangs at Indra.
"Irelyn, get ready to run." Indra says to Irelyn who immediately takes off. "I'll catch up with you later."
"Fire style: Fire Release Stream jutsu!"
She exhales a stream of fire burning everything and the snake in her path. She stops watching the flames spread around her.
'That should do it..' She breathes heavily. 'That took some chakra, I probably should've used the fire ball jutsu but.. Whatever.'
She turns around and is about to take off when a fiery tail slams into her and sends her flying on a tree.
The snake slithers through the flames with 3rd degree burns and scorch marks. It hissed at Indra and throws itself at her.
'Fine, you wanna play...' The snake getting ever so closer, Indra smirks. 'Then, I'll show you the power of the Sharingan!'
Her only black eyes fade to red as a single black tomoe appears on her eyes.
"Come at me!!!" She yells and kicks off the tree launching herself straight towards the snake. She grips the hilt of her with one hand.
"Fire style: Great Fire Ball Jutsu!"

Back on Beacon Cliff, both Ozpin and Glynda watches everyone through the tablet.
"Orochimaru, looks like he sent his pet after Indra." Glynda says. "We should cancel and have the students retur–"
"Not yet," Ozpin says cutting her off. "I want to see how she will handle this. If the situation gets worse then I will call in reinforcements."
"Understood."
"Glynda, I understand that you are worried about her. You've been her guardian since she was seven years old... ever since the night of her clans massacre." Ozpin says. "Have faith, soon she'll become a full fledged huntress."
