Emerald Forest:
The forest leaves rustled as students zoomed past them. Each student eventually met the ground, some landing on their feet while others landed face first. The Fox family were the ones to land correctly, as well as other students. Shakira looked impressed as she saw that some students were still flying past her and from the sounds of things only one person has landed on their face so far. A different kind of rustling came from the other end of the clearing that Shakira had landed in, the bushes rustled from the movement of an unknown target. But Shakira did not move as the sound got louder. A moment later a brown haired girl emerged from the foliage walking up to the other girl. Shakira did not move from her location or even look at the person, she new who this person was and trusted them.
"Did not take long to find you." The woman said as she moved to stand beside Shakira. Said girl turned to the new person and smiled.
"Well of course it would not take long, I made sure to put a tracker on each of us so that we can find each other. Lets go find the others Ukie." Shakira addressed the girl as she began walking deeper into the woods.
"Lets hope those two find each other before they meet anyone else." Ukie said as she followed behind the other girl. Ukie own braided hair trailed behind her as she walked into the forest, the sound of metal running across the floor could be heard occasionally, as they walked.
With Alex:
"Alex up here." The cat boy said as he watched his feathered brother walk past underneath him. He had decided to stay in the trees once he had landed, so that he could watch everything going on in the forest but also to make sure no one else saw him. Alex turned to look up at the voice. Leo was there crouched on the tree branch above him, his cat tail swayed side to side. His emotionless face would have told anyone else that he was not interested, but Alex knew that when his tailed moved like that it meant that he was really happy and/or excited about what was going on. And in this case Leo was very excited to see his older brother.
"I guess that makes up team mates." Alex said as he flow up to Leo's branch, landing beside the younger teen. "We should get going, don't want to be late to the party now do we." Alex said as he stroked Leo's left cat ear, making the teen purr, a second later Leo realises he is purring and tries to stop, but ends up giving in.
"We could... get to the... place by... shadows..." He said between purrs, by this point he was leaning into the touch. Alex nodded and stopped stroking his brothers ear and waited for said teen to compose himself. Alex smiled a little at the sound of protest coming from Leo when he stopped stroking the boy. Alex hoped down to the floor below them.
"That would be quicker but I don't think it is a good idea. I don't want you to get tired." Leo made a pouting face. "I know you have a lot of stamina but still this place is far to big. Even Ukie would not be able to cope with that much energy use. besides we don't know where we need to go." Alex said trying to make Leo feel a little better about the situation. Leo sighed before hopping down beside the older teen.
"Lets get going then." Leo said as he led the way he thought could be of some use to them.
"Remember all we need to do it get the White Queen peace." Alex said as they got deeper into the forest.
"Understood." Leo replies.
With Shakira & Ukie:
"Shakira... I don't think that is a good idea." Ukie said as she watched her friend stroke the head of a Griffon, said beat laid down beside the sitting girl as she kept stroking its head and neck. Shakira giggled as the beast rolled over on it's back allowing the girl to stroke it's stomach.
"You are super cute!" Shakira squalled happily. Ukie sighed as she looked deeper into the forest. 'I hope they are doing better then we are.' Ukie thought.
"Okay, enough of that. Now Miss Griffon would you be so kind as to take us to where the chess pieces are. I will give you a really big leg of meat." Shakira said as she opened her arms wide, to show how much the griffon would get. A second later the Griffon squawked and stood up, motioning for the two girls to hop on. "Yay! thank you so much Miss Griffon!" Shakira cheered as she hoped onto the Griffon's back, Ukie sighed and got on behind the girl. She wrapped her arms around the other girls waist holding on tight.
"This is going to be fun." Ukie said as she herself began to get excited at the thought of being able to fly over the forest and get this whole exercise over with. "Lets go!" She yelled happily as the Grimm set off into the sky.
'Hay Alex we are flying over the forest on a Griffon, see you at the meet up point.' Shakira said through their mind link.
'Roger that, see you soon Shakira.' Alex said as they walked. Leo kept dogging the sun rays that came through the tree tops. Alex watched him as they walked, silently enjoying the funniness of it all. Leo looked at him.
"You do know that I can tell what you are thinking right." Leo said, his voice laced with annoyance. "I know I am taking longer to walk but I don't want to be in the sun if I can help it." Leo said as he watched his brother walk in the sun. The sun made Alex's hair light up with colour, his wings had also lit up, he was almost sparkling as the sun bounced of of him making him look like he was made out of jewels.
"I know Leo, but it still is cute watching you try and doge the sun." Alex said with a warm smile. Leo turned away from him, jumping round a large patch of sun rays.
"We are going to need to get the meeting place soon otherwise they will not be happy that we made them late." Leo said. Alex took a moment to ponder over an idea to get them their quicker and that also stay in the rules that Shakira had set.
"Well We could always fly there. I could carry you like we did when you where younger." Alex said as he walked over to the other teen, said teen looked horrified at the idea.
"You wouldn't..." Leo said giving the older teen a angry look, but that did not stop him. Alex picked up his younger brother under the arms from behind, lifting them both into the air with one flap of his wings.
"You would!" Leo said as he was carried across the forest.
"Can everyone just chill out for two seconds before anything crazy happens again!" Yang yelled at everyone. Two seconds ticked by before Ruby pointed upwards, getting everyone's attention. Wise cried out for help from the claws Nevermore, while a Griffon flow around the area, slowing descending.
"What is that!" Weiss yelled as the griffon got close to her. The two girls on the Grimm's back waved happily at her.
"Hi there, need some help?" Shakira asked, Wise's reply was quick.
"Help me!" She cried as she held on for dear life.
"Okay." Ukie said as Shakira made the Griffon fly up higher, about another fifty feet above the Nether-more.
"This is your stop!" Shakira yelled over the wind. Ukie stood up on the Griffon's back and gave her sister a salute before leaning to one side and dropping off of the Griffon, free falling down to her target. Lucky for Ukie and Weiss, Shakira had made sure to 'drop' Ukie off in front of the Nether-more's path, so that she would hit her mark. Ukie turned to face towards Shakira, blowing her a kiss before turning to back to the Grimm. Shakira chuckled and asked the Griffon to descend down into the area below.
"Coming to get you!" Ukie yelled as she punched the Nether-more on the top of the head, coursing a shock wave to ripple though the Grimm's body. Sending Weiss falling with a shout. "Ops." Ukie said as she stood on top of the Nether-more as it began to fall as well. Jaune caught the girl as she fell, before then falling with her, cushioning her fall with his body. "Ow, that's gotta hurt." Ukie said still falling with the Grimm. The Griffon landed close to the rest of the students, Shakira hopped off the Griffon giving it a pet before looking at the other students.
"Hi again." Shakira waved her hand before putting it behind her back and pulling out a large leg of meat, chucking it to the Griffon, that squawked happily at the food. "So how is everyone?" She asked the group that looked confused.
"Did she just ride in on a Griffon?" Blake said looking at the girl as she walked over to them, the Griffon had flown off with it's food.
"Where did she get that food from?" Ren said, his comment went unnoticed.
"Yeah, we bumped into that Griffon while walking here. We got it to take us here." The golden eyed girl said as she looked over to where her sister was falling still. "Ukie get over here! I will call Alex!" Shakira yelled towards the other girl, said girl used her stamina to jump with enough force to jump the fall distance and also push the Nevermore to the ground. Landing beside her sister, creating cracks in the ground around her.
"Hi." Ukie said as she stood in front of her classmates, Shakira turned away from the group.
'Hey Alex, how far are you?' Shakira said through her mind link, it did not take to long for her to get a response.
'Look up." A male voice said. She followed the command and spotted two figures flying through the air towards the group. She waved to her family, as they landed the other side of her.
"Good to see you are not standing out to much Alex, Leo." Shakira said as she looked at the two boys, Alex folded his wings back behind him and Leo crouched down on the floor, both his hands and feet digging in to the ground.
"We are never doing that again..." Leo said, he was really shaken up, in the last few years he hand began to hate flying more and more. Ukie hit his shoulders playfully, sending the boy toppling forward with the force of her hit.
"You love flying really! Don't be such a baby." Ukie said happily even when she got a death glare from her younger brother. Ren and Alex looked at each other for a little while, one admiring the other for his beautiful wing, while the other admired the other for his strong physique. Shakira smiled over to the two, making sure not to let anyone else catch her line of sight. Pyrrha landed at the groups feet.
"Great the gangs all here, now we can die together." Yang said sarcastically.
"Not if I can help it." Ruby said as she ran off towards the Death-stalker using her scythe to shoot off a round behind her to give her more power behind her speed. A moment later she was sent flying in the other direction by the Death Stalker claw.
"Did she really think that was going to work?" Ukie said watching the girl run for her life from the Death-stalker. "How long do you think until we should help." Ukie asked.
"We have been told to not interfere unless needed." Alex said as he watched Yang run towards her sister. "Lets keep watching from here." He said. A moment later the Nevermore woke up and began to chase after the dark haired girl.
"She's dead." Leo said sitting close to Alex's legs, leaning on him.
"Stay focused." Shakira said as she stood beside Ukie, getting ready for a fight. Ukie played with her braids for a bit while watching the teens run for their lives.
"She's ganna die." Ukie said as the girl got trapped by the feathers of the Nether-more, Yang fell in between the feathers gapes, looking around panicked, calling to her sister. Ruby tried to pull herself free, but the Death Stalker lifted its stinger, getting ready to strike the young girl. Ukie looked over her shoulder towards her brother. "Wanna make a bet?" She asked the younger teen, said teen nodded and walk over to stand at his sister's side.
"I bet ten credits that she will get saved by blonde haired and knightly over there." Leo said sending a quick look over to the other teen. Ukie nodded like he could understand why.
"I will match you with the credits but I think one of us will have to help her. These kids look too young to be able to do anything." Ukie said as they watched the scene unfold, they were all ready to do something if they needed to. Alex shook his head he and Shakira had a different bet idea for this event.
"Weiss will save her." Shakira said watching the young dark haired struggle to get free. Leo looked at the girl in shock.
"The ice queen? Saving someone else? She is more worried about breaking a nail then helping another person." The cat said looking at the ice queen behind him, she looked like a baby compared to his power, how would a weak girl do anything against that Grimm. A split second later Leo ate his words as the girl stopped the Death Stalkers stinger from hitting the younger teen. Ukie and Leo looked at each other.
"So we both lost." Ukie said.
"But I won, since I got it right." Shakira said happily turning to the other teens with her left hand open, waiting for the money to be given to her. Ukie grumbled a complaint and Leo just stayed quiet while they go their money out and handed it over to their sister. Alex just sighed at his siblings antics, every so often he felt someone watching him, he knew who it was but still it was starting to get a little annoying. Alex walked over to where the fight had happened, he watched as the Death Stalker thrashed around trying to get free of the ice. A loud grown came from above him, he looked up and saw the Nether-more flying above them. Everyone regrouped.
"Guys that things circling back. What are we going to do?" Jaune asked, you could hear the worry in his voice, he was pointing up to the Nevermore that was still flying above them.
"There is no sense in dillydallying our objective is right in front of us." Wise said as she drew everyone's attention to the chest pieces that where placed on their pedestals.
"She's right, our mission is to get an artefact and make it back to the cliffs." Ruby said as she used her thumb to point over her should towards where the items where, Weiss nodded happily. "There is no point in fighting these things." Ruby continued.
"Run and live, that is an idea that I can get behind." Jaune said happily.
"Sounds stupid if you ask me." Leo said annoyed at the other student's inability to fight against the Grimm. Everyone looked over to the faunus boy, they all had a mixture of shock and anger on their faces.
"What did you say? It is not like we are running away. We just want to live another day." Weiss practically yelled at the teen. Leo looked even more annoyed they are going to just that, they were going to run away.
"Leo." Shakira said, Leo looked at the older teen and calmed down before walking over to the chest pieces.
"Fine." Leo said walking up to the white queen's piece. "It's this one we need right?" Leo said, he picked up the piece once he got a nod from Shakira. Shakira also picked up another white queen's piece.
"With that all decided, let's go." Shakira said walking back over to Ukie. The Death-stalker tried again to break free from the ice, this time it was able to create cracks in the ice.
"Time we left." Ren said looking towards Alex when he said it. Since meeting the older teen he was unable to stop looking at him. Everything about the older teen was graceful, from the way he walked like a runway model to the way he flew through the sky.
"Right. Let's go." Ruby said leading the way to where the cliffs are, Leo ran beside her. Both Yang and Ukie watched their younger siblings run off and be the leaders of the group, both of them were full of pride. Blake stopped by them.
"What is it?" Blake asked
"Oh, nothing." Yang said watching her sister.
"They grow up so fast." Ukie said happily, while Yang smiled. The three girls quickly followed the rest of the team. As they got the home stretch the Nether-more flew over them, blocking their path to the cliffs. All the Members of their team split up finding different areas to hide. The Nevermore sat on top of the building in front of the cliffs, squawking loudly.
"Well that's great." Yang said looking at the Nevermore, a second later the Death-stalker burst through the tree line, come straight for them.
"You just had to say something didn't you!" Leo yelled at the blonde girl. Ukie looked at the Death Stalker smiling.
"Time for some fun!" She yelled excitedly, Shakira put her hand out in front of her stopping the girls movement.
"No. We go to the top of the cliff and watch from there. I want to see what kind of people each of them are." Shakira said looking towards where her brothers were hiding, giving them the signal, they began to run towards the cliff. Thanks to Nora the Fox family was able to meet up and disappear into the shadows.
'Wait where did they go?' Ren thought to himself, looking around the area for the other team. A second later he jumped back into the fight.
Explosions, bullets and the screams of the Grimm's could be heard at the bottom of the cliff, teams working together to kill the Grimm that was after them. On the top of the cliff rested one team. Shakira stood watching everything going on blow them, Ukie stood just behind her to her Left. Alex sat at the edge of the cliff with his legs dangering over the edge, Leo laid down beside him. Leo was laying on his front with his head propped on his arms, his tail swaying back and forth, unlike the others he was watching Alex's wings move in the wind. He fought against his cat side, the side of him that told him to attack the bird beside him.
"We will watch from here, see how each person fairs against a Grimm." Shakira said watching Nora send Jaune flying across the cavern, quickly following after him, using her hammer to get across.
"Can we please get involved, I mean come on that looks so fun." Ukie said pointing towards Nora. Shakira herself was beginning to question why she wanted to stay here.
"Well I guess fighting with them will help us understand their skills first hand." Shakira said trying to find a good reason to go and have fun while they are on a mission.
"You want to go fight don't you." Ukie said give her a mischievous smile. Shakira got all flustered waving her hands around trying to explain why she thought it was a good idea and it was not because she wanted to have fun. Ukie laughed enjoying her sisters distress.
"Go on ahead, I will watch while you guys have fun." Alex said as he kept his eyes on the young ninja. Ukie yelled with joy as she jumped from the cliff, free falling for a little while before pushing off against the cliff face. Leo thanked his older brother before following his sister to the fight below. Shakira ran up to Alex giving him a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Thanks big bother!" She yelled as she jumped off the cliff following her siblings. Alex broke his composure to laugh at his younger siblings antics, it was nice to see Shakira having fun, it did not happen to often with recent events. Every team fought bravely killing all the Grimm. The three youngest siblings of the Fox family did not seem to do much in the fight, but from where Alex sat he could see how much of this battle his younger siblings had contributed. Throughout the battle all three Foxes had used their skills to help move the other fighters out of danger. Alex smiled more then once at how Leo would smile while having fun pushing Weiss around without her knowing. Shakira controlled the battle to the very last second of the Nevermore's life as its head fell from its shoulders, this was the real skill of a leader. To all the other members in the fight they did not feel the touches that saved their lives and they did not see their savours. Ukie was laughing her head off as she had fun pushing people around and hitting the Grimm every so often, this made many of the other fighters confused as they heard laughter coming from all around them. Alex himself had jumped down once or twice to defend some of the fighters that his family could not get to in time. Ruby looked to her right seeing the older Fox, she looked confused for a seconds as she walked over to him.
"What are you doing up here?" She asked innocently. Alex looked at the girl before sliding off the cliff edge and flying down to the rest of the group. Ruby shrugged her shoulders using crescent rose to safely make her way down to her friends. Ren looked up towards the sky as he saw a black feather fall, he opened his hand and let the feather land on it. This feather had appeared a moment after he had dogged a attack from the Death Stalker. Ren looked towards the cliff when he heard wings flying towards him. Alex landed about a meter in front of him watching the rest of the team gather. Ren stared at him before being called by his friend.
"Ren focus!" Nora yelled getting her friends attention. "Where you even listening to me!" Nora said waving her hands in front of the ninja's face.
"Sorry Nora. What where you saying?" Ren said, he kept stealing glances towards the winged man, while talking to his friend.
"Well that was fun." Ukie said as she, Ukie and Leo walked over to the group. All the rest of the group watched them come over.
"And where do you think you have been." Weiss said with her hands on her hips. Leo chuckled covering his mouth with his hand, trying to stop his laughter. Weiss looked over to the younger boy with an annoyed look. After calming down a bit Leo answered.
"Wouldn't you like to know Ice Queen." He said making his way over to Alex, said girl was about to yell at him but Shakira interrupted her.
"We were sorting out a different Grimm over there." Shakira said pointing to corpses of two Basilisks, each slowly vaporising into red petals. The rest of the team looked at the dead snakes. "They came out of the forest so we took care of them before they made a mess with the rest of the fighting." Shakira explained. Weiss crossed her arms smiling.
"I could have killed both of them without any help, but you had to have your families help. Weakling." At Weiss's comment Ukie, Leo and Alex all took a threatening step forward. Leo growled and hissed at the girl. Ukie copied her brothers growling. Alex reached behind him, it looked like he was about to get a weapon from behind him. Weiss looked worried at the threat.
"Stop!" Shakira yelled, stopping her family from getting closer to the other girl. "All of you calm down." Shakira demanded from her family. Each member took a step back and began to calm down, as instructed.
"You have them on a tight leash I see. Thank good we need those faunus under control." Weiss said as she gained some confidence. "But you, I mean you are completely human, you should know better." This comment was directed towards Ukie. They took their threatening stances again.
"Weiss, stop." Ruby said trying to calm down her team mate. The white haired girl turned to her friend.
"Stop what its true, they need to behave and be kept on a leash." The Fox family except Shakira became even more angry. Shakira quickly jumped in front of the Ice Queen, her arms open wide, blocking her families way. Weiss jumped back, thinking that the Fox sibling was coming for her, Weiss looked at the other siblings shocked to see how angry they had become.
"STOP IT NOW!" Shakira yelled trying to get her family to snap out of their angry induced rage. Alex blinked and relax, he walked over to his sister, nodding to show that he was safe to be around. Alex stood beside her sister his arms wide blocking the remaining siblings way. "Don't think this means I like you okay. I just don't want to see you dead." Alex said as he watched his siblings. Leo lunged forward towards the white haired girl, said girl screamed in fright as the boy came at her. Alex blocked his way and wrapped his arms around the younger teen, said cat boy wriggled around trying to get free. The force behind Leo's movement coursed both teens to fall to the ground. Alex held Leo in his arms, Leo's head was up against his older brothers shoulder.
"LET ME GO! THAT WITCH DISRESPECTED US! WE ARE NOT ANIMALS YOU BITCH!" Leo yelled looking over his brothers shoulder towards the girl in question. Weiss took a step back. Leo bit down on Alex's shoulder in anger, drawing blood from the bite. A moment later the younger teen fell into unconsciousness, his teeth let go of Alex's shoulder as he fell asleep. Alex relaxed his hold, but still kept him upright against his chest.
"Is he okay?" Blake asked, she was the first of the shocked teens to react to the scene in front of them. Alex looked over his should towards the girl, he gave her a small smile.
"He will be fine." The winged boy said as he turned back to his little brother and began to stroke his hair, calming the sleeping teen. Weiss was still not happy about the whole situation.
"Why should we care if he is okay or not! He tried to attack me!" The white queen said in anger, everyone was more worried about the sleeping teen then the girl that was about to be killed by said teen. "See this is why they need to be on a leash."
"I think you should really shut up right now. We have something more important to take care of right now." Shakira told the girl, her comment made the rest of group looked in the direction she was facing. Ukie still stood there watching Weiss with hate in her eyes. The brown haired girl took a step forward, this moment made Shakira grabbed something from behind her back, chucking the object towards her sister. The moment the object hit the floor after bouncing off the other teen everyone's faces become confused. On the floor laid a string of red fire crackers, their fuse had been lit. When the first bang rang out in the forest Ukie's face was striped of anger and a playful cat face took its place. Each crack of the fire crackers made the young girl become more and more playful, the rest of the group could see how she was trying to fight off the urge to play with the cracker. But to Ukie demise she was overcome by the urge, leaping forward and attacking the crackers as they cracked in her hands. Ukie laughed loudly, enjoying the fire crackers.
"HAHAHAHA! BANG BANG BANG THEY GO! WHEN THEY STOP I DON'T WANNA KNOW!" Ukie cheered happily enjoying the little explosions in her hands. Some of the crackers landed on the ground at her feet, each time those crackers popped Ukie would jump dodging their tiny blast. Ukie's braided hair bounced around her as she danced around. Everyone's expression except the fox families changed from shock to confusion when they saw the change in the girls personality.
"I think we should stop her. I mean she is getting hurt by them right?" Pyrrha asked as she watched the girl dance around happily. The teen had gone from rage induced hatred to down right childish in ten seconds flat. This change worried a few of the members in the group.
"She is fine. Fire crackers always calm her down." Shakira informed the worried teen. Both Shakira and Alex watched the girl with a smile on their faces, it was nice to see their sister go back to her childish self once in a while. Leo moved in his sleep, grabbing hold of the fabric that covered Alex's chest, snuggling into the crock of the older teens neck. Light purring could be heard coming from the younger teen. Shakira turned to address the rest of the group."We may seem a little unorthodox but this is just how are family is." She told them. While Shakira was talking to the rest of the group, Ukie danced behind her singing happily as the fire crackers popped all around her. Alex held Leo close and was stroking his hair calming the younger teen, who's tail swayed back and forth happily. They were far from the normal family that one would seen in the town of Vale. Everyone just looked dumbfounded. A moment later the little popping noise stopped and and Ukie turned to the rest of the group, before anyone could react she lunged forward, her eyes filled with hatred. Shakira turned around just in time to be hit face on by the other teen, the attacking girl wrapped her arms around the other girls waist. Everyone in the group was ready to strike when they were suddenly stopped.
"Wait what!" Jaune said confused at what he was seeing. There in front of them stood Shakira wrapped in the other girls arms, that seemed normal enough but what confused him the most was what was happening to the girl. Ukie was kissing her. Ukie pulled away hugging the girl again.
"Thank you so much for the fire crackers!" Ukie said happily while she hugged her team mate.
"Your welcome." Shakira rubbed the girls head and smiled, they acted like this was a normal thing for them.
"Wait I thought they are family!" Jaume said as his confusion about the scene in front of him began to sink deeper into his mind. Shakira turned towards the other teens, moving Ukie's hands off of her.
"We are related only by name. Ukie and Leo are the only ones that are related by blood. Alex, Leo and Ukie took my last name, but not by law though, so we all still have different family names." Shakira explained, she could see everyone's shock and confusion begin to slowly go back to normal again.
"So you guys just took Shakira's last name? Why?" Yang asked, still a little confused. Alex looked over his shoulder towards the blonde haired teen.
"We took her name out of respect." Alex said. "We may not be related by blood or law, but we are still family, always will be." He said as he continued to stroke his younger brothers hair. Ukie wrapped one of her arms around Shakira's waist, pulling the other girl close to her side.
"Maybe we could be family for real." Ukie had her head on The crock of Shakira's neck as she spoke. Shakira patted the other girls arm way as she walked over to the rest of the group.
"Anyway, we better get to the meeting point." Shakira said changing the subject before the rest of the group began to question her teams relationship further. She looked over to the cliff face beside them. Ukie's face suddenly lite up. "Please don't tell me you are think what I think you are thinking?" Shakira said worryingly. Ukie chuckled.
"Hell yeah baby!" She said as she looked towards the other two teams. "Alright you maggots, I want to see what kind of powers each of you have. So I propose a game of sorts." Shakira rold her eyes at the girls antics. "It's simple really make your way to the top of that cliff before my little brother wakes up. Think you can do that for me." Ukie looked across all the faces before her, noting down everyone's throughts about her little 'game'.
"Why should we play some stupid game. Your brother could be asleep for ages, we don't need to rush." Weiss complained. Ukie did not bother to make a comment.
"10,9,8,7,6." Ukie bag an to count, everyone looked confused about what they were going to do. "5,4." She continued, walking over to were Alex was, said boy gave are a angry look, he know what she was about to do. Alex placed the younger boy onto the floor and began to fly off towards the cliff.
"I would get going if I were you." Shakira said as she weissled and the Griffon from before came to her aid, jumping on its back she flow off, following her brother. Everyone began to get worried when they saw how desperate the other Fox family was to get away. Ren, Nora and Pyrrha began to make their way towards the cliff. Pyrrha ran back to the group quickly and then dragged Jaune with her. Ruby, Yang and Blake shared a worried look.
"3,2." Ukie said as she knelt down beside her brother, grabbing his earring between her fingertips. Ruby, Yang and Blake began following the rest of their friends, leaving Weiss to herself.
"1." As she said this she ripped the earring from the others ear, blood began to pour out of the wound. Ukie jumped back as her younger brother began to sit up on his own, his eyes covered by his hair.
"RUN!" Alex and Shakira yelled towards Weiss as she stood there confused. Their comment made her realise that this was no laughing matter, it only took a heart beat before she ran after her team mates. Ukie followed quickly after her.
"Hahaha! You better run, big bad kitty gonna get you!" Ukie laughted, she was a lot faster then Weiss, it only took her a few seconds to cach up with the rest of the students. Once she was at the ruins Ukie jumped up to the tops of one of the towers and used the tops of each building to get higher. Once she was on the last roof top she crouched down and pushed off the roof with so much force she was on top of the cliff in a millisecond. The force of her push sent the building she jumped off of into dust, there was nothing left of the building that could identify it as a structure.
"I win!" She yelled happily cheering as she looked down at the other students making their way up to her. A cough rang out behind her, making her turn around to find the source of the noise. Behind her stood Shakira and Alex, the Griffon Shakira had been ridding was already long gone. Ukie let out a small awkward chuckle.
"I won." Alex said walking over to the cliff edge. Ukie's happiness dulled down. Shakira chuckled and stood beside his brother. All the other students were close to the ruins by this point.
"They are still to close." Alex commented on their situation. "If he goes off now they will not be able to stop it."
"Shit." Ukie cursed as she only just realised that she made a mistake is overestimating the other students abilities. By this point Leo was already fully standing and was looking towards where the other students had run off to, his iris changed from brown to black, no light reflected off of his irises. "Double shit." Leo released an anger filled screech as the world around then began to become dark.
"They are still to close!" Shakira said panicked. Alex grabbed the earring before jumping off the cliff and flying overtop of the other students making his way over to were Leo was screeching. Ren stopped in his tracks when he saw Alex fly over him, he was about to run over to the other teen but was stopped by Nora grabbing hold of his arm and bragging him with her before he could protest. Alex grabbed hold of Leo's hand, the waves of anger and power were pushing against Alex, making his jobs ten times more difficult then he would have liked it to be. Placing the earring into the younger teens hand calmed said teen down instantly, the world around them turned back to normal, so did the younger teens eyes and personality. Leo blinked for a few seconds before he was able to focus on the red head teen in front of him.
"What happened?" He asked once he had taken in the condition of his brother. Alex chuckled ruffling the younger teens hair before wrapping his arm around the younger teens shoulders, this action was partly for support and partly for a form of bonding between the two males.
"Let's go two the others." Alex said as they began to walk. All the other students had finally made their way up to the top of the cliff each one looked exhorsted. Shakira hit Ukie round the back of the head.
"Sorry about my sisters stupidity." Shakira said walking over to the other students.
"It's fine, nothing bad happened." Ruby said waving off the others girls apology.
"It was certainly not fine!" Weiss yelled waving her hands around in anger. "What was that anyway?!" Weiss yelled at Shakira.
"Leo does not like losing his earring." Shakira said plainly as if it was nothing. Weiss looked dumb strucked.
"He loves that earring." Ukie followed on after Shakira's comment. Weiss was about to complain when Alex and Leo suddenly appeared behind her. Startling everyone around them exempt Ukie and Shakira.
"Hay Ice Queen, you are alive still, great." Leo's voice was laced with disapointment and sarcasm. As he pulled Alex closer to him with an arm wrapped around the older teens waist, everyone could see that it was for support but Ren was still not comfortable with their closeness, expeshually after finding out that they were not related like he originally thought.
"Atleast someone cares about my wellbeing." Weiss said smugly. Leo looked another at her.
"Ice you do know I was being sarcastic right?" Leo said as he and Alex made their way to stand beside their sisters, his earring was back in his earlob and the wound was already healed, this quick healing did not go unnoticed by some of the members of the group. Weiss was about to comment on Leo's rudness towards her but she was disrupted by an airship landing close by them. Ozpin stood at the entrance of the airship.
"Time to go." Yang said as she began walking over to the airship, everyone followed behind her, Weiss with some reluctancy and Leo and Alex with some difficulty thanks to Alex's tiredness and also the wound on Leo's side that had happened someone time during the Grimm fight, Alex would have to find out more about that later. Opinion watch everyone bored the transport, Shakira was the last to board.
"I presume you got everything you needed." Ozpin asked the gir, said teen looked serious and moody for a moment.
"They are weak. If they don't get stronger soon, then this school will not be safe enough for the maidens to gather." Shakira's comment made Ozpin begin to worry, everything Shakira had ever said before had always been right. And this would be no exception and he know it. Shakira's personality changed back to her normal happy self as she sat stood beside her team, laugthing at something stupid Jaune had done while trying to chat up Weiss.
'A wolf in Sheeps clothing. Or better yet a Grimm is human form.' Ozpin thought as the airship took off.
And done.
Sorry for taking so long, I have had a lot of school work to finish off since I was a idiot and thought 'oh that subject looks cool lets join it near the end of the school year.' So yeah..
Also I have been helping Explodingninja with her fanfic 'The lost shnee' (hope I spelt that right) by writing the bad guys side of the story.
Anyway thanks for reading and please leave a review to let me know what you thought! Xx
