Here's chapter two.
I don't anything but my original characters.
Ashe woke up to see that he'd fallen asleep as he was sitting on the couch. He got up and splashed his face with water to wake up more before going over to go see how Summer was.
He looked into the crib to see she was beginning to stir and he went over to get her baby formula ready. Ashe walked back over as she woke up and picked her up.
"Morning, sweetheart," he said as she began to fuss a little and he gave her her baby bottle.
As he fed his daughter, he received a message on his scroll.
'Hello, Mr. Nikos, this is Professor Goodwitch,
I'm sending you my schedule for my classes since you will be my assistant. You shall start today, but it'll mostly be an introduction day. Just meeting the students.
I've noticed that you've taken an interest in teams RWBY and JNPR. So they along... with any other teams you choose shall work with you especially as suggested by Professor Ozpin.
Do not worry about Summer, Professor Peach has offered to watch her while you work with me.'
He thought about this plan and seemed to like it and messaged back.
'Very well, Professor. I only ask that you do not go into any detail should you introduce me yourself. I'm not ready for anyone to know yet. And also I need a favor from you, but I'll ask in person. I shall see you soon.'
He saw that Summer was finished and proceeded to finish his morning routine with her. Afterwards, he held her close as he began to catach up on what he had missed over the past eight years as he never paid attention to current events during that time.
Unfortunately, he soon saw the time and knew he had to get to work soon. As he got himself ready with Summer watching him from the sofa, there was a knock at the door. He proceeded to open it and saw a woman standing there.
"You must be Professor Peach, right?," he asked.
"Yes, I am," she said and he let her in and she immediately went over to Summer. "I'll take good care of her, Mr. Nikos."
"Thank you for volunteering, and you can call me Ashe."
She nodded and he waved goodbye to his daughter before walking out and soon found the combat classroom, where Goodwitch was waiting for him.
"Good morning, Mr. Nikos," she said.
"Please call me Ashe when its just us," Ashe said.
"Very well. What was that favor you wished to ask?"
He stood silent for a moment, and then walked over and whispered into her ear. Her eyes widened briefly as he pulled away.
"...I'm not entirely sure what help I could be, but I'll do what can to help you. I'll have to inform Professor Ozpin as well."
"Fair enough. So... when should they be coming in?"
"Any second now," she answered.
As soon as she said this, Ruby, Wiess, a tall blonde girl with violet eyes and a black haired girl with yellow cat-like eyes came in. They were soon followed by team Pyrrha and her team, and then numerous others began coming in.
"For those of you who do not know who this... is Ashe Nikos, and he'll be my new assistant in this class. You are to listen to whatever he tells you just as you do with me. Mr. Nikos, do you wish to say anything?"
"Yes, I do," he said and walked over and stood in front of the students. "As Professor Goodwitch said, I am Ashe Nikos. To answer the question that is more than likely in your heads right now... yes, I am related to Pyrrha Nikos. I'm her older brother. While I will be working with you all, there will be a select few teams of my choosing that I shall teach some more advanced combat to. If you and your team impresses me well enough, then I'll work with them. I've already been assigned two teams already though. Teams RWBY and JNPR. Any questions?"
"Yeah, how do we know you're supposedly as good as your sister?," someone said.
"I'm not as good at combat as my sister... I'm even better. I even trained Pyrrha."
Some looked to her and she slowly nodded, though some did not believe it.
"Ha!! You expect us to believe that?! I bet my team and I can take you down easily! Especially with that one eye," another said and Ashe turned to see a boy with a confident smirk and a look that radiated arrogance.
"Who might you be?"
"Cardin Winchester, leader of team CRDL, the best team in Beacon."
This earned some protests and denials, but they were silenced by Goodwitch's glare.
"Well, Mr. Winchester... why don't you and your team prove it? The four of you... against me. Professor?"
"...Very well," she said.
Soon enough, all arrangements were made and the classroom was prepped for a fight.
"Would Team CRDL and Ashe Nikos please enter the arena?"
Cardin and his team were the first to reach the arena, all geared up and ready for a fight while Ashe looked the same with his shotgun on his back and then simply he shook his arms and half the length of the chains on his arms fell off.
"You sure you girls wanna do this?," he taunted, earning snickers from onlookers, especially RWBY and JNPR, but the bullies got annoyed.
"Should Mr. Nikos' aura drop down to red or is thrown out of the arena, victory shall go to Team CRDL, and vice versa," Goodwitch said, explaining the rules of combat training in her class. "Understood?"
Ashe nodded as his one eye looked at his opponents, who nodded as well.
"Who is this guy again?," the blonde girl from RWBY asked.
"He knew Mom, Yang," Ruby said, making her sister look at her. "He said she and someone else trained him. He'd been missing for about eight years. Right, Weiss?"
"...That's right," she said.
"Well, it'll be interesting to see how Pyrrha's supposed brother fights," the fourth member of RWBY, Blake said.
"Ready... begin!!"
They charged at once while Ashe stood still. Once they drew close enough, Ashe quickly roll off to the side whilst the chain on his right arm swung low and swept them all off their feet before wrapping around Cardin's leg. Ashe instantly pulled the chain and threw the kid spinning in air, dropping his weapon.
The left chain then wrapped around Cardin's mace and he began to drop it down the rest of the team, who were getting up and they jumped out of the way. One member in black and grey plate armor, Sky Lark, charged at him swinging his halberd. Ashe simply bent his knees down with his back straight while it swung in front of his face. The older Nikos used his chains to support his body and kicked handle of the halberd, making it collide with Sky's face, knocking him out. Ashe shot a chain at the brown armor plated boy, Dove, and struck him in the chest as the final member, Russell, ran at him and swung his daggers at him. Ashe simply dodged or deflected his attacks until a chain wrapped around the mohawk haired kid's arm, making Ashe smirk and him grow a look of concern.
Ashe twisted his arm in a way to make him drop the dagger in his hand, which he then caught and hit the side of the boy's head to put him in a daze. Then roundhouse kick the back of his head, sending his aura down to red, so he was out of the fight.
Ashe then turned to see Cardin with his mace and Dove next to him with his short sword. Ashe just grinned and began to taunt them by spinning his chains around, wrapping then unwrapping them around his arms and body. It did not take much as they both charged and Cardin struck the ground, causing the ground to crack under Ashe's feet. But Ashe simply jumped out of the way while still doing neat tricks with the left chain and spinning the right one vertically and very fast so as to keep Dove at bay for the moment. In fact, it didn't even look as if he was controlling the chain at all.
"How is he doing that?!," Nora exclaimed very softly.
"Your brother is as good as you," Ren stayed, and Pyrrha nodded in agreement.
Cardin ran at Ashe and swung the mace but Ashe simply swung his left chain at the mace, making it miss him and hit Dove in the face instead, leaving only Cardin left. Ashe turned to Cardin, who was about to attack and shockingly... rewrapped the chains around his arms again.
'What is he doing?,' Glynda thought to herself.
Cardin smirked and began swinging the mace at him, but Ashe caught it and pulled him in close, to which the bully responded to to with a punch in the face. When Ashe looked back him though, the kid wasn't met with an emerald colored eye... but one that seemed to be made entirely out of fire. It lasted only for a second, but it was enough to freak Cardin out.
Ashe then pulled Cardin down then throwing him high into the air with a Cain wrapped around his torso. The Nikos boy then pulled on the chain hard, and the Winchester boy came crashing down, and his aura was drained down to red.
"...Victory goes to Ashe Nikos!!," Glynda announced and there was an uproar of applause as Ashe walked over to help Cardin up, but he simply responded by quickly crawling backwards away from him.
"Get away from me, you... you freak!!," he said almost fearfully.
Ashe looked at him strangely for a moment before pulling his hand away and letting his team help him up.
"...Whoa," Ruby said.
"Yeah, he's definitely Pyrrha's brother," Yang said, and Blake nodded in agreement.
"Yes... he certainly hasn't lost his touch," Weiss said.
The rest of the day went by in a flash and now Ashe sat outside on a bench with his daughter in his lap, his bike nearby. Soon, he saw a few familiar faces walking over to him.
"Hey, Ashe," Ruby said then looked to the baby. "Hello, Summer!!"
"Hello, Ruby, Weiss," he said, standing up and handed Summer over to Ruby. "Yang... It has been a very long time. Fifteen years."
"Wait, we've met?," Yang asked and he nodded.
"Didn't Ruby tell you that her mother trained me?"
"Yeah, but I didn't think we'd met before."
"Well you were a toddler when I last saw you, so it makes sense why you don't remember," he said then looked to Blake. "You... I can tell who you are as I've met your parents before. You're Blake Belladonna. Ashe Nikos."
"...Nice to meet you," she said, shaking his hand.
"So... this is the Team RWBY that I've heard so much about?"
"Yup, that's us. So this is your kid?," Yang asked, walking over to Summer and Ruby.
"That's Summer. She's about six months now."
"So cute...," she said and messed with her a little, making Summer laugh as Ruby held her.
"Feel free to hold her if you want I trust you all enough," he said and Yang grinned and gesture Ruby to hand the baby to her, which she did.
"Where's her mother, if you don't mind me asking?," Blake asked.
"She's... a bad influence on her. So I got her away from her."
"Who is her mother?," Weiss asked.
"...Another time," he said as JNPR walked over and Yang handed Summer over to Pyrrha and walked over to Ashe's bike.
"That was an amazing fight, by the way," Ruby said. "And he trained you, Pyrrha?"
"Yup," she answered. "He started when I was only a little older than Summer here. While your mom trained him, he trained me. But weren't you trained by someone else as well?"
"Yes, but that is also a topic for another time."
"Ashe, is this yours?," Yang asked, referring to his bike.
"Yup. Nice, right?"
"It's amazing. Reminds me of my Bumblebee. Bet my Bumblebee can beat it though. Wanna find out?"
"I'd love to but I'm afraid I don't have the time for the moment. I'm trying to use my free time to be with Summer."
"Fair enough. But that race is happening sooner or later," she promised and he just rolled her eyes. "So, Weiss, how do you know Ashe?"
"My family sponsored him when he fought in the arena, that's all," she said.
"That's all? I'm not your friend?," Ashe asked teasingly but she just glared at him. "Okay, I'll take that as my cue to leave. Come on, baby girl."
He gently took Summer back in his arms and put her in a carrier as he got on his bike.
"I'll be seeing you all soon. I'll be accompanying you on a little... field trip soon. See ya then."
He then drove off and Pyrrha looked to Weiss.
"You know, he promised to tell me everything when he was ready," she said and Weiss looked at her. "Feel free to be there when he does, if you want."
She slowly nodded and they all went about their own business.
Ashe then put his bike back into storage and he began walking back to his dorm. Once he got there, he began feeling something stirring inside him.
"No... not yet...," he said to himself.
He sat on his sofa and placed Summer on his lap as Ozpin arrived at his dorm.
"Hey boss. I'd get up to greet you, but I'm a little indisposed at the moment."
"Haha... I understand," he said, sitting in another chair, sipping on his coffee. "I was visited by two people today who said some things about you."
"Goodwitch and Winchester?," he asked and the old man nodded.
"Mr. Winchester said during your match with him and his team, he saw your eye grow like an ember for a brief moment."
"Whatever Winchester thinks he saw was nothing more than fatigue getting to his head as his aura was low."
"I see..."
"And Goodwitch?"
"She informed me that you needed assistance in finding someone," he said and Ashe nodded. "...I know where he is."
"I know... where is he?"
"Not entirely sure where he is specifically, but I do know that he's in Vale."
"Good enough for me," he said. "Thanks. Can you do me another favor and drop Summer off at either Team JNPR's dorm?"
He nodded and Ashe got up and readied himself for a ride on his bike.
"I have an inkling as to what has happened to you, Mr. Nikos... my only hope is that you one day tell what did happen to those you care for. Otherwise you will lose them forever."
"...I know."
He then walked out and walked over to his bike, unaware that someone with a turquoise colored eye and a jade colored eye was watching him through a rifle scope.
"Long time, no see, kid," the person said. "Where have you been...?"
As Ashe moved faster towards Vale, he began to feel it again.
"Ugh!!! Guess there's no stopping it this time."
Then suddenly, a flash of flames erupted around him and he sped even faster towards Vale.
The next morning, Ashe rode his bike back to Beacon and put it in storage. He then went to his dorm and cleaned himself up, showered to wake up and quickly got some cold water for himself.
"Man... I hate it when I have to do that," he said to himself.
As he began to relax before headed to class, someone began to knock rapidly and loudly on the door.
"Nora, gently," a voice on the other side said. "He might be asleep."
"That's why I'm doing this," Nora said as Ashe opened the door, but she didn't noticed and continued knocking, on Ashe's forehead.
"Uh... Nora," Pyrrha said pointing to her brother, who Nora smiled sheepishly at when she saw what she was doing.
"...Please don't do that," he said simply, and she lowered her arm. "How can I help you?"
"Well, first, we're here to bring Summer back to you," Ren said, handing the baby to her father.
"Thank you. And the other?"
"We wanted to make sure you were alright. We heard you'd gone to downtown Vale and there was chaos down there last night," Pyrrha said.
"Hm... must've missed it."
"It's all over the news," Jaune said. "This guy with a creepy, all silver bike and his head on fire was taking down numerous criminals left and right. Practically incinerating them."
"I'm sure your girlfriend can and will protect you, Jamie," Ashe said, once again annoying the blonde haired boy by purposely getting his name wrong. But the remark also made his little sister blush slightly, so it was a double win. "Anyway, I'm fine so you don't have to worry. I'll see you all in class."
"Oh, there's no class today," Nora said. "The Vytal Festival is soon and the students are to help prepare it. It's a double win!!"
"And a triple win for me as I can sleep in. I did have a long night. Good night to all of you."
Pyrrha just smirked and shook her head as she watched her brother close the door and the four of them left back to their dorm.
Meanwhile, in one of the dorms occupied by students visiting from Haven Academy, one girl with long black hair and amber eyes watched the news with great interest.
"So you're here in Vale huh?," she said. "I'll find you, Ashe. And I will take back what you stole from me."
Hope you like this. I need to refresh myself on what goes on in the show as I've never really seen it, so don't expect another chapter anytime soon. No matter what, I hope you like it. And see ya later.
