Prim let out a small sigh as the plan to take the shortcut was made. "Alrighty then!" she said, trying to seem cheerful. "Follow the dark, not brick, like asphalt or concrete or something, not really a road, but an alleyway..." Another sigh escaped her mouth. "Okay, the ragtag team is just about where the similarities end." Taking her bow off her back, Prim continued, "We should probably get out our weapons by the way, just in case we meet any unsavory characters. Like y'know, the criminals that you," she looked at Ace, "explicitly-yes I know big words too-said use this shortcut."
"Actually..." Prim looked around for a moment before confirming that her plan would work. "I have another idea! And I don't think it's stupid!" Realizing what she said could possibly be taken the wrong way, Prim let out a tiny gasp, covering her mouth with her hand as well. "I didn't mean that taking the shortcut was a bad idea, no no no no no, I meant that my ideas are stupid a lot so... Anyway..." She proceeded to go over to move then climb on top of a trash can, swinging herself onto a low-hanging balcony above. From there, Prim made her way up to the rooftops of the place using her whips and even her bow once. Lucky it was pretty durable. "I'll stay up here!" she called down to her teammates. "I'm better with long-range anyway, and I can kind of... keep lookout! Warn you guys if I see anything and show the way back to the main roads. We're not too too far actually. Alright? Great!"
Satisfied with the approval of... herself... Prim started to make her way alongside the path of the alleyway before pausing to squint at something in the distance. "Hey guys... there's something out there. Kinda close to the main roads. I'm not sure what it is, but... I tried a quick aura scan. I'm not too good with those things, but... I think there are Grimm there. I don't know, again, I haven't had too much training with aura abilities, but... let's just check it out." Not even waiting for any further answers, Prim started running along the rooftops towards the perceived threat.
