"Just grab your weapons and let's go!" Lissa said impatiently. "I'll lead the way." With that, she headed out the door.

Locating Crystal outside of Beacon Academy was an exceedingly easy task, as she had already prepared a vehicle for the team to use and was standing outside of it reading from some sort of notepad. "Hey there, Ms. Evermore!" Lissa yelled as she ran up to her teacher. "We're here!"
The voice Crystal heard was unmistakable. She didn't even bother giving Lissa her full attention, merely glancing over her glasses momentarily to address the girl. "Good day to you, Lissa." She stated simply and immediately returned to the notepad. When finally the rest of team LLGD caught up to their most enthusiastic member, Crystal dropped the notepad to her side and spoke up. "Ah, excellent. This is the rest of your team? And I assume this is your true leader, Leona." Crystal stepped closer to Leona and inspected her as Lissa retreated, embarrassed. "Yes, she certainly looks the part better than you do." Lissa opened her mouth to retaliate but for once thought better of it.
"We will be travelling via ground transport. This way, we can go undetected longer and deploy closer to the target. Remember, our goal is the nomads, nothing more. Do not engage Grimm unnecessarily." Crystal climbed inside of the transport, a six-wheeled offroad vehicle designed to be low and compact. The vehicle made so little noise that at first it was difficult to tell when Crystal turned it on. Soon, the sides of the vehicle slid open automatically from bottom to top, folding up onto the roof and revealing seats for four. It was clear this transport was designed for utility and not for comfort, as there was barely enough space inside for the taller members of the team to sit without hunching over.
