"Sorry we're late Yang, Katlyn couldn't wake me up" Raider half lied "don't worry about it, I just finished my warm up anyway, and Raider", "yes?", "stay away from the punching bags", "very funny". "Hey, you ok?" Raider asked sitting down next to Katlyn who was looking upset "yea, just thinking", "that's dangerous" Yang said as she walked up to them "only for you" Raider shot back "last time you tried thinking you set the smoke alarm off" Katlyn finished with a light chuckle "anyway whatcha thinkin' about" Yang asked sitting down on the other side of Katlyn. "Did she hear the burn she got or is she actually stupid", I thought you were dead "keep dreaming", it's the only thing I dream about, the day you leave, "Earth to Raider" Katlyn said as she waved her hand in front of his face, "huh what" he asked shaking his head "sorry, zoned out there", "we aren't that boring are we" Yang said taking a drink from her bottle. "Hey Raider, can I ask a question" Yang asked as they walked back to RWBYs dorm, "I don't know your capability of asking a question, ask away" he replied with a chuckle, "what were you doing in the workshop ages ago", "I was making these" he said showing Yang his eight rings on both hands, "you made rings" Katlyn asked with a blank expression on her face, "they replace the need to get my keys every time I want to summon a vehicle, plus they allow me to summon more than a vehicle, I can summon anything I want".

"Ruby what are you doing" Weiss asked looking at the paper Ruby was drawing on, "oh I'm designing a new weapon, it's basically Cresent Rose, except it's a battle axe not a sythe, still a gun though" Ruby said cheerfully "whats wrong with Cresent Rose?" Blake asked looking up from the book she was reading on her bed, "nothing, I've just been really wanting to make a new weapon" Ruby said getting more and more excited as the more she thought about it, "what's its name?" Blake questioned, curiosity in her voice, "I haven't got one yet, I usually name my weapons after I've made them", "it looks like a flower so I think you should call it Full Bloom" Weiss said as she examined the rose like design on the blades, "Full Bloom, I like that, ok new weapon Full Bloom" Ruby said as she wrote the words at the top of the paper, "I didn't think you would be interested in that kind of stuff Weiss" Blake said going back to her book. "Hello peoples" Raider burst through the door, making the three girls jump, "Raider, I'm gonna kill you in your sleep" Weiss said as she picked up her scroll which Raider made her drop, "I wouldn't try that if I were you, trust me I figured that out this morning, don't do anything to him while he's asleep" Katlyn replied before Raider could dig his grave deeper, "do you wanna rethink that sentence" Yang said chuckling, which earned a thwack on the arm from Raider, "wait, your arm feels weird" Raider said as he poked Yangs arm, then without warning Yangs arm fell to the floor, Raider stared wide eyed for a second before he fell to the floor unconscious, "huh, I thought he knew about that" Yang said as she picked up her arm looking Katlyn who was trying to wake Raider, "Raider we have our training session in fifteen minutes" she said checking the time on her scroll, Raiders eyes shot open and he pushed himself up, as Katlyn expected he would never miss one of their team training sessions, "we, will discuss that later" he said pointing at yang as he walked out the door, Katlyn following behind.

"Ready?" Raider asked as Katlyn put a blindfold on "why do I need this again" she asked "I wanted to try something different" was the only reply she got. "Alright I'm ready" Katlyn said as she held her weapon in its rail gun form, "five" raider said as a target popped up, Katlyn spun round and fired a round in in the direction of the target, just missing it, "not bad for your first shot. ten" he said and Katlyn spun again, fired and blew the target away, "hit" Raider said as he waited for the next target, "twelve", Katlyn turned and fired, but the round never reached the target, as it struck Raider in the stomach and sent him flaying across the room, he landed with a thud, "Raider?" Katlyn asked when he said nothing she cautiously removed her blindfold, when she saw Raider she dropped her weapon and threw the blindfold off before sprinting over to Raider who was lying on his back, "Raider, are you ok, say something dammit" she said worried she'd hurt him, "w-weee" he coughed as he sat up "holy shit that thing hits like a truck" he chuckled "yea a hundred tonne truck" yang said from the bench at the side of the room, "how long have you been there" Katlyn asked, "well when you said training I thought you meant something else, so I decided I'd come watch" Yang shrugged "I don't wanna know" Raider said shaking his head as he got to his feet, "y'know you two look really cute together" Yang stated out of nowhere, "I- where did that come from" Raider asked as his brain stalled, Katlyn wasn't doing much better, her face was as red as it could possibly get, she looked like she wanted to be anywhere but here.

"Can you believe yang actually said that" Raider said as he followed Katlyn into they're room "your talking about Yang remember" she said with a smirk, "you do have a point" he sighed. "So, it's still early what are we gonna do now" she thought aloud, "you have an interesting idea of early" Raider said as a pocket watch floated in front of him, "why do you do that?", "do what", you have all the power in the world, yet you almost never use it" she asked curiously, "my powers are nothing but a curse" Raider practically snapped making the small girl jump, he sighed "sorry, it's just..." he paused as he thought of what to say "I was given this power eons ago forced to watch the ones I loved live and die, I witnessed evolution and extinction, from the first breath to the last I've seen the lives of the poor, the rich, the good and the bad. There's nothing I haven't seen. So believe me when I say nothing in existence could truly make me as happy as I was before I was cursed with this power, not world domination nor world peace, seeing others happy or miserable, nothing at all. Now you know why I don't use it as much" he sighed sitting on his bed expecting a similar response to last time, but what he got instead was a complete surprise, Katlyn wrapped her arms around him as best she could burying her face into his collar, I'm so sorry" she sobbed, tears staining his shoulder, he hesitantly placed his hands on her back rubbing up and down as she continued to cry.

Yangs right, what do you mean exactly I mean- "raider are you ok" Raider was brought back to reality by the small girl sitting across the table eating a salad "hmm, oh yea I'm fine, just arguing with myself" he sighed as he picked up his burger taking a bite "why do you ask", "because you've been... distracted quite a lot lately" she replied worry in her voice "are you sure nothings wrong", "I... " he paused debating whether or not to tell her, to late to go back now, he thought "there's a voice in my head, placed there by the high leaders to keep me sane" he explained "I usually meditate to keep it under control but with classes and other things I haven't had the time, so it's getting stronger." He sighed "why not let it out, give it control, see what it does" she asked. just then Raiders scroll rang, sighing as he pulled it out "hello? oh hello what can I do for you? oh really, ok we'll be there right away, alright bye". "What was that about" Katlyn asked as Raider stood "the rest of our team he said as he got his wallet.
