Chapter 2: Youth Blood

A/N: Two chapters… Two chapters, never thought I'd push for a double-upload like that…. Anyways, enjoy…


"That'll be fifty dollars." I gave the man the money for the fare and climbed out of the taxi, I looked at where I was and saw how crowded it was, "An airport huh..? Well, I guess it works better than anything…." I walked into the main building and looked at the prices for a one-way trip, "Well, best we can do is a one-way trip to Vale, first class for three-hundred and fifty dollars. Would you like the last seat madam?" I nodded silently and pulled out the money required with my passport.

After that assortment was over I grabbed the ticket and headed towards the terminal, taking a seat and watched the planes flying and taxing along the runways, "Hi, is that seat taken..?" I looked to my right and saw a girl with dark hair and a red streak, Ruby..? "H-Hello..? Excuse me!" I snapped out of my thoughts and stuttered, "Oh, uh no this seat isn't taken. You may have it if you'd like." I adjusted my posture and smiled slightly, "Thanks! My name is Ruby, Ruby Rose, and you?" She sat down next to me, you look just like the dolt… Why..? "My name is Weiss Schnee, it's a pleasure to meet you Miss Rose."

"You're funny, my mommy's called Miss Rose and I'm just called Ruby or Rubles or Rubes!" I giggled slightly in response and looked back at the airplanes taking off and landing, "They're pretty big aren't they?" I nodded silently and kept watching them, "Flight 3-1 to Vale international is now boarding. Flight 3-1 to Vale international is now boarding." I stood up and waved good-bye to Ruby, making my way to the gate I showed them the ticket and boarded it. I put my things away and prepared myself for a new life…. Without family…

As the plane landed, I stared out the window as golden hills welcomed me to Vale, "We are now approaching descent. Would all passengers please set all seats and trays in the upright position we will make a smooth landing, thank you all for flying with us." I fixed my seat and felt the plane came to a smooth landing. Getting off, I was immediately led to customs and confirmed my staying in Vale, canceling my citizenship in Mistalen.

I hailed a taxi down and asked them to take me to the smallest town nearest of the airport, I waited patiently and looked to my left, looking at the water of the Vale Bay smiling softly, knowing how this was my newest home country. Welcome home Weiss…. Welcome home…. "Here we are, Concord, Vale. The fare was two-fifty but I'll let you pay one hundred and fourty five dollars…" I handed him the whole fare and climbed out of the cab, taking in the sights of the interesting architecture of the town, "Quaint, small, peaceful…. It's, perfect…"

I decided I would step into one of the restaurants and took a seat, "Hi, welcome to Ren Ren Lie, I'll be your host Nora Valkyrie. Can I getcha anything to drink?" I looked at the menu and stared at drinks, "Sure, I'll have a lemon-lime soda… Whatever is available that is." She wrote it down and smiled, "Great! I'll be back with your drink and be ready to take down any order for food!" She seemed to get out of my hair quickly as she dashed off, her orange hair almost like a light trail as it disappeared with her, "I… I think I like it here…"

I stayed around, enjoying the sights from my seat and the taste of the good homely food, it seemed peaceful and calm, "Hey… You must be the new person that was dropped off earlier today right..?" I looked up and saw a girl… She looked beautiful and cute, "Y-Yeah… I am, my name is Weiss, Weiss Schnee…" She was dressed in a black hoodie and simple jeans, "My name is Yoko, Yoko Ozokawa… I actually would like ask you a few questions since you seem pretty young to have arrived here… Is it possible that I could take this seat and ask you..?"

I nodded silently and she took her seat, "Alright… First question, how old are you..?" "Fifteen." "Alright, so under eighteen… What brings you to Concord..?" "I…. I kind of just lost my family and decided a new home was needed…." She looked at me and frowned slightly but quickly hid it, "Okay so loss of family… Would you like to stay with me..?" I tilted my head wondering why she asked it, "Well, you don't have family members, you came to a small town, you're under age by our laws… Technically you're able to stay with me in foster care until you're of age so to speak to get a job and stay by yourself." She smiled and held out her hand, "S-Sure…" I took it as well and the woman paid for my food. We left the restaurant and climbed into her car, my bags in the back and I was in the front.

"Here we are! Ozokawan Adoption Agency! This'll be your home for a while…" I stepped out of the car and looked at it. "Small but quaint right? I know, it's just a dream that I'd have a small house but it'd be large enough to care for a few kids while they look for new parents…" I smiled as I grabbed my things and hugged Yoko, "It's perfect…. Thank you for taking me in Yoko…. I'm truly in your debt…" I teared up a bit and cried into her shirt as she hugged me, I don't know what happened but when I awoke.

I was on a couch and came to the sight of Yoko smiling a bit, "Hey… wakey, wakey sleepyhead… You fell asleep from all of that energy wasting…" "Oh, I did..? Thank you for bringing me inside then…" I grinned but realized I had my purse and backpack nowhere near me, "Umm, where's my stuff..?" "They're in your new room, untouched so you can put away whatever you need to put away. Once you're done, I can help register you for school…. Judging by my logic you must be eligible for high school…" "I believe I am, I was always home-schooled by my parents and a tutor." She chuckled and helped me up slowly, "Alright, well, your room is the first door on the left down that hall." She pointed towards a hall next to the dining room entrance and patted my back, "Go check out your room Weiss."
