Shadow: finished all this in one day. I'm pumped about this. Story idea came from Luna, my hat off to you. And now ON WITH THE SHOW
Dad was adjusting his tie in the door way as he waited for mom.
He is wearing simple black and white tux, with a sliver watch and pitch black gloves. Of course, I spotted a glint of steel, probably a throwing knife.
"Sooooo... where are you going?" I asked. I was bored and my siblings, again, were with my grandparents.
"It's private event Pup, some coworkers of mine are having a large get together and I must attend along with your mother." Dad explained. "Trust me, you do not want to go, no one your age will go and well, they're not exactly the kindest of people."
I shook my head annoyed at my father's words though I'm not mad at him. I've actually met one of less... kind coworkers and I would not want meet him again.
"Yang will be watching you, Al has some other business to attend and took your cousin along and well, I think you know why he didn't bring your aunt along." Mom said as she walked out of the bathroom.
I snorted, and agreed Aunt yang is probably not the best person to bring to a business meeting.
Mom was wearing a long red flowing dress, that made seem very regal and somewhat intimidating. Like dad she wore gloves but they were black and silky. Mom's hair was tied into a pony tail to keep her hair out of her face.
Mom smiled and kissed me on the fore head. "Be nice to your aunt, we will be back soon. Just make sure that Yang doesn't trash the house." She said.
I couldn't help but laugh. While Aunty Yang can be very physical and well, she had owed my parents some money for destroying stuff.
"Yea, Yea. Have a good time." I said as mom gave dad a quick peck on the cheek as he opened the door for her.
Dad chuckled as mom walked through the door way. "Pup, If I'm having fun, that's not a good thing." He said before he closed the door.
I immediately jumped to watching the Tv, something of a rarity for me.
After about an hour of waiting, the tell tale hum of a motorcycle. Turning off the Tv, I stared at the front door.
And soon enough, it burst open with aunt Yang behind it.
"Hey shrimp!" Aunt Yang greeted loudly.
Long having gotten used to my Aunt's rather loud entrances, it barely assaulted my hearing. "You know, if you break the door, again, your paying for it." I deadpaned.
Aunt Yang just rolled her eyes. "Any plans today?" She asked, as she sat down next to me.
I shook my head. "Mom wants me to lay off training and there isn't anything good on Tv." I said, slightly disappointed.
My aunt thought for a moment before snapping her fingers. "When's the last time you've been to Vale?" She asked.
I raised an eyebrow. The house was on the mainland, near the dock were the ferry that goes to Patch so we could have easy access to the cities and not be separated by the ocean.
"Not for a few months, I kinda went overboard with training." I stated sheepishly. After hearing the exploits of my mom and dad, well, I couldn't but want to become the best hunter I could be.
Aunty Yang rolled her eyes. "Come on shrimp, we've got sights to see." She said.
It take didn't take long for us to get to Vale. As usual the bustle of the city faintly annoyed my sentive ears.
"So, Where are we heading to?" I asked as we zoomed through the streets on Aunt Yang's motorcycle Bumblebee, from which I'm told has been upgraded since the end of the war on Salem.
"I have to ask, were do you want go to?" My aunt asked as she pulled into a parking lot.
"Beacon." I said automatically. "It's the closest, and I want to be close by, just in case the twins run my parents up the wall."
Aunt Yang snorted, knowing how much of a handful that my younger siblings are, little terrors I call them.
"So, I'm thinking of hitting a few stores, to get some clothes for you and maybe something you want." She explained.
I nodded, if nothing else but to make her think I'm annoyed, I hate shopping.
After getting some new clothes (Yang made sure that I didn't get the same exact outfit I'm wearing now) we started to go over some stuff like video games.
I bought a game for my computer called warframe and that's about it. Surprisingly it around lunch time when we're done.
"Where do you feel like eating?" Yang asked as she packed away the game into a backpack she brought along.
I shrugged. "Anything's good." I said noncommittally.
Yang raised an eyebrow before beaming. "Well, in that case, I hope you don't mind we pop over to the Curtain hotel, they have some good food." Aunty Yang suggested.
Soon we ended inside the most expensive hotel I've ever seen.
"Ah, Mrs. Capain welcome back." The doorman greeted as he opened the door.
"Thanks Alfred." Yang greeted as she walked past.
"Mr. Erebus." Alfred said kindly as I approached.
"How-?" I asked confused.
Alfred smiled. "Your parents stayed at this very hotel multiple times, and several times it was with you in your mother's arms. To be honest, it startled me to seen how much you've grown." He admitted.
"Radley." Yang called.
"You better go, as you know your aunt has short fused." Alfred said, amusement dancing in his eyes.
I nodded mutely and walked inside. It was definitely the most high class place I've ever seen, the walls screamed money, and yet somehow they don't hurt my eyes with how it's decorated.
I quickly caught up with my aunt, who was in front a restaurant. While most of the customers ignored me, several members of the staff once they spotted me, smiled.
We were quickly ushered to a table and handed menus.
"Radley, Yang?" A familiar voice asked.
Behind us was one my dad's coworkers that i know, Luna Greyback, I call her aunty Luna because I see her a lot along with a few others.
"Hi Aunt Luna." I greeted with a wave.
"Hello, so your baby siting today Yang." Luna stated.
Yang smiled. "Of course, I'm his favorite Aunt." She claimed.
My eyes widen in terror, this not good.
"I'm sorry what did you say?" Luna asked.
Funny thing about Yang and Luna, they really don't agree each other when it comes to who is my favorite Aunt and tend fight about it, I have no idea why they do this.
As I quietly back away, the grown women glared at each other and I swear on the brothers, there was electricity coming out of they're eyes!
"Where the nearest park?" I asked a female waiter.
She raised an eyebrow but quickly shook it off. "There's one two blocks down south." She explained.
I nodded. "Thanks, if they ask I'm there." I stated before I quietly made outside of the restaurant.
Once I got to the park, I sat down on bench and let the sun warm my skin.
Of course, soon enough I hear a ruckus near by.
A girl my age was surrounded by other kids my age, being taunted about her apparent status as an orphan.
I walked to the group with the hands in my pockets.
The girl had ashen black hair with light amber eyes. She wore a red shoe and black pants, in her hands was book "the rules of being a hunter and huntress."
"Knock it off." I said tiredly.
One of the bullies whipped around. "What makes- whoa" He said as he met with my eyes.
I smiled. "Would you kindly, leave the girl alone." I asked with false kindness, I also channeled a bit of my aura into my left eye, making it glow red.
"No way, Just cause-!" He began before I punched him in the jaw, and fell to the ground.
"Get out of my sight." I stated angerly.
"This is not over!" The kid I punched yelled, before scampering away along with his cronies.
"You didn't have to do that." The girl said politely. "Kestrel has been a bully as far as I can remember."
I rolled my eyes. "Doesn't mean your should endure it." I stated and held out my hand. "Radley."
"Hestia." She said in return and shook my hand.
"Do you mind if I sit with you?" I asked.
Hestia nodded. "Sure."
Getting past an odd feeling, I sat down. "So you training to become a hunter?" I asked.
Hestia nodded. "Becoming a hunter, for some reason, sounded very appealing to me." She explained.
I smile and nodded. "While I did want originally want become a hunter because it sounded awesome, once I became mandatory once I unlocked my aura, more than usual." I explained.
Hestia narrowed her amber eyes, before hey snapped open. "A Darkblood." She stated.
I nodded. "Yep." I said popping the P.
Hestia stared at me for a second before she looked like she had an idea.
"Sorry if this completely off topic but, you know how to unlock others aura?" She asked.
I nodded, getting an idea why she changed topics suddenly.
A small grin crossed her face and I felt, a little more happy for some reason.
"For some reason, I can't unlock my aura and well, the lady who runs the orphanage looks down on hunters for some reason." She explained.
I nodded. "Hestia, I can do it but you have to be sure you want to be hunter." I stated, remembering Moms words against opting other people's auras willy nilly.
Hestia nodded. "I know." She stated confidently.
I quickly did a scan of her emotions, and I got nothing.
"Alright, give me your hands." I ordered holing out my own. "Oh, be mindful my words are going to be a little weird."
"For accepting our mortality, we are given the ability to fight death. Through our morals and tenacity, we will rise above our demise, and ascend to new heights. I reach into your soul, and unlock your true potential. I pledge my soul, to protect yours from threats I that make the greatest warriors tremble." I chanted, softly enough for her to hear with my eyes close.
I felt my aura reach into hers, and pull it out to surround her body. When I opened my eyes, I got a slightest glow before it completely disappeared.
Hestia grinned, with her white showing slightly and then hugged me. "Thank you!" She said gratefully.
An exsplosion rang out and I pretty good idea what caused it.
I got up. "I have to go, my aunts are proably tried to kill each other." I stated, sounding very annoyed.
Hestia gave me a skeptical look. "Alright, I'll see you later and again, thank you." She thanked.
I gave her a wide smile. "I'll see you at Beacon!" I said before I took off, my heart racing from unlocking Hestia's aura.
Once I reached the scene of The explosion, I face planted into the ground.
"Really!?" I yelled. In front of me was a destroyed building, I would say it was bad because of the some how still standing bar area.
"The one day I let them have a day off, my bar destroyed! What is wrong with me!" A man with a black vest and white suit scolded himself.
He then jabbed a finger at aunty Yang. "And you Blondie! Your paying for all this!" He screamed.
"Hehe, oops?" Aunt Yang said
"Arghhhh!" He yelled.
I jogged up aunty Yang. "Where-" I began when a pile of ruble fell apart with Aunty Luna shaking off the concrete dust.
"Never mind." I said.
"Alpha is going to kill us." Aunt Luna said, and I swear I heard a whimper.
I raised an eyebrow. "Mom's going to go on the war path." I stated.
Both women groaned in realizing how much trouble they are in.
"Kill me now." Aunt Yang muttered.
"Not before- Ophh!" He grunted as aunt Yang sent a kinetic blast, sending him down the street.
"Shut up Junior." Aunt Yang said as I face palm.
Sometime later
"So Pup, how was your day, besides your Aunts.. erratic behavior?" Dad asked as he made the first move in our game of chess, still in his suit.
"It was good, before got a few things went to Loki's domain." I said moving a pawn.
Soon, Aunty Luna and Aunt Yang came screaming by with Mom hot on they're tails, with a slightly demented grin.
"Shouldn't you know, Stop mom?" I asked as o watched the chase.
Dad chuckled. "I may be your mother's husband but like hell i'm getting in your mother's way." He said. "She can be extremely scary."
"Enough for even you, the feared Grimm Reaper, to not interfere?" I questioned, already knowing the answer.
Dad glared. "ESPECIALLY ME!"
