The Creed of a Hunstman
Marcus, two months later…
'Christ, where the hell are they?' Marcus pondered as he searched the airship currently taking them to Beacon for Yang and Ruby. After ending up on Remnant, Marcus adapted quite well to the various cultures and people there. Plus, when he heard Ruby had kicked the shit out of the criminals and got accepted into Beacon two years early, he was pumped. But then again, they were the only people he trusted. That was one of his weaknesses, his lack of trust for anyone. He had the Templars to thank for that.
He snorted at the thought. Templars. They were the reason he was here. Hell, they were here with him. He saw one while he was reading a book about the history of Remnant. After slipping out of the library undetected, he cautiously made his way back home. Then again, that Templar didn't even hide the blood red cross on his necklace… or his shoulder. As if his habit to hardly take his hood off wasn't bad enough, now he pretty much never took it off outside of Ruby and Yang's house.
"I can't believe my baby sister is going to Beacon with me! This is the best day ever!" Yep, there she was. He chuckled at her enthusiasm. She was so full of happiness and hope, it kinda made him jealous. The thought of living a normal life, a life without fearing everyone around, without worrying about being shot in the head or having your throat slit the next morning, it made him jealous.
"Pleashe staph…" Ruby's muffled response came. It was adorable.
"But I'm so proud of you!" By this time, Marcus had already reached them. "Hiya hot stuff" Yang purred towards him. His response, head nod.
"Really sis, it was nothing" Ruby said.
"You stopped an armed robbery. That doesn't qualify as nothing Rosebud" Marcus replied.
"Yeah! Everyone at Beacon is gonna think you're the bee's knees!"
"I don't want to be the 'bee's knees'! I don't want to be any kinds of knees! I just want to be a normal girl with normal knees" She replied. 'What kind of logic is that?' Marcus thought.
"What's with you? Aren't you excited?" Yang asked.
"Of course I'm excited… I just… I got moved ahead two years. I don't want people to think I'm special or anything" Ruby said.
Yang walked up to her sister and threw her arm around her sister's shoulder. "But you are special" Marcus chuckled. Once again adora-
"You…" Marcus whipped his head around to search for the voice that called him. It sounded like a woman. He frantically looked for the source of the voice. It seemed like he was the only one who heard it. "Profeta, no son conscientes de lo que eres.." Marcus had now left the room and decided to go to the balcony of the ship, hoping to get some air and clear his thoughts.
"Llegará el momento en el que vamos a necesitar que…" the voice said.
"Who are you? What do you want with me?" he whispered to himself. He wasn't going insane, was he? He was sure The Apple wasn't draining his sanity… he hoped. He heard stories of those who weren't worthy enough of the apple lost who they were, even if they had the mental capacity to wield it, they would still struggle against the apple's power.
"Marcus? You okay?" Marcus whipped around to find Yang with a concerned look on her face. Of course she would be the one to notice he was gone. He sighed.
"Just peachy, Yang." He smiled under his scarf. She gave him a puzzled look, and he sighed again." Yes, I smiled under the scarf." With that Yang moved closer towards him.
"Well, maybe you should ditch that scarf and show me those beautiful lips" she purred. Marcus didn't mind the flirting though. Especially from Yang. She would often flirt with him when her dad or uncle wasn't around "C'mon, were gonna be landing soon."
Line Break~
Soon the ship docked and all the passengers scrambled to exit the plane. A blonde kid ran out and began to vomit inside the trash can. Marcus felt bad for the poor guy. Mainly because a friend of his had one hell of a motion sickness problem. That, and because there went that kids breakfast. He continued to walk with Yang and Ruby until they stopped in front of the building and looked in awe(I'm not gonna describe because I'm a lazy little turd).
"Uh guys? Can I get a tour of the place? Y'know, without being in a state of coma?" He asked. The waved him off and he began to walk around the place. But soon his thoughts trailed back to the voice he heard in the airship. Who was she? What was she? He wasn't paying attention and walked into a girl with black hair and pale skin.
"Agh, shit I'm sorry." Marcus apologized.
"It's alright, just watch where you are going… uh?" she responded.
"Marcus. Marcus Garcia" he placed a gloved hand which the girl shook.
"Blake Belladonna" she greeted.
"Belladonna? As in pretty woman?" he asked, which prompted a blush from the girl/
"Well, when ya say it like that…" she meekly replied. It was kinda funny.
"Well, I gotta explore the place. See you later Blake."
