Some might hav been thrown off by such a display but Zii only nodded, "Impressive." She shot him a cheeky grin, laughing a bit as he made doubly sure the bird was down for the count. His compliment to her was met with a shrug and a deliberately no committal noise. "For now anyway. Only the gods can say what tomorrow holds." She sheathed her sword then pulled the flag she'd snagged from where she'd stashed it. Handing it over since he was more likely to have pockets, she touched her arm cuff and let it shrink back into its original shape which was much easier to wear. The armor she left though.<br/><br/>"Anyway, you haven't seen anything yet, golden boy. Don't go thinkin' that's all I got," she winked and punched his shoulder lightly before turning to jog off further into the woods. She was warmed up now and feeling even more eager to meet their challenge head on as only an Amazon could, it was time for the real challenges to show themselves...<br/><br/>Jogging through the woods was not always the smartest move. Especially if not sticking to the main path that would take you through. Besides the beasties there was the general haphazard nature of of the wilderness to contend with, which meant lots of ducking rogue branches, avoiding rocks, random holes dug by wildlife, and even potentially angry nature spirits. Camp Half-Blood was not your normal sort of place after all and the barrier that protected it all only kept out mortals and monsters. It could not keep out the more mundane things like squirrels who liked to throw nuts.<br/><br/>Such an occurrence was what brought Zii up short when a hard thing met her forehead. Really she should have been able to dodge but she honestly hadn't been expecting that sort of ambush. "Ow!" She rubbed the stinging spot and cautiously looked up into the tree. She didn't see anything at first until another nut came flying at her face and she was forced to duck. "What the hell?!" She ducked again as she was nearly brained again then stepped back away from the tree to look over at Dorian. "I don't suppose you've ever run into any dastardly monster squirrels have you?" She was half joking but half serious as she felt around the spot that was likely going to be a knot very shortly. She wasn't entirely vain but dammit, that was<em>not</em>cool.
