[i]"Alright then....i-it's showtime!"[/i] Kaldis thought as he saw the paper and ink tunnel form, completely clearing the way for everyone to get through. His heart was pounding in his chest, he didn't know just how many were going to be inside the building, but he knew that they were going to be tougher to take down than that gang leader from before, for all he knew everybody inside was as strong as Orin, maybe even stronger. Still, he couldn't let Beatrix or the guild down, not now. He wanted to prove that he could stand on his own, and maybe, just maybe if he got lucky, he'd be able to get C rank if he could clear out some of the weaker Serpent's Dagger members. Steeling his courage and grasping his elbows with the opposite arm for each, he let out a deep breath before sliding his hands from the elbow, all the way until he was grasping his hands in each other, and as his hands moved, he cast his wood-make magic to form rather sizable wooden gauntlets around his forearms. Lightly tapping them once against his chest, he broke out into a sprint down the tunnel, not wanting to be left behind.

As he made his way through the tunnel, he pumped himself up more and more to garner some form of confidence beyond what his timid self could muster. All it really did was make it look like he was running in a very energetic manner, though his antlers were slightly growing in length, though it wasn't really noticeable if you hadn't paid attention to them before.
