The Masked Killer Ch. 7

Chapter 7. Sorry it took me so long to start writing this, but I had to get a document in a form that I could write this on here. I've noticed kind of a drop off in any feedback/comments so if anyone could write anything that would be appreciated.

Team RWBY were on edge. That note. It was such an obvious direct challenge to Weiss, that they were all sure that Weiss was next. They saw what losing your team did to you, no matter how tough you were. Losing JNPR had taken a huge toll on their mental health. But your team was something besides friends. They were the people that you ate and slept with. They went to fight with you, and they had your back. Losing your team completely broke you down mentally. Weiss didn't want to leave her dorm, for fear of what might happen. But eventually she had too. They had run out of food, and Weiss was the only one in the dorm. She got up and called out to the four hunters in charge of protecting her.

"I have to go get some food. We're out." They all nodded and surrounded her. They couldn't let him get to her.

He was in his perch. He was hoping that he had taken enough food to coax her out. He had formulated a careful plan to fight her, but the execution wouldn't be easy. He finally saw her, surrounded by the four hunters tasked with her protection. He was waiting on them to walk under him. They finally did, and he jumped down and pulled out his sword. He slashed across the first hunters throat and stabbed another one in the chest before any of them had time to pull out their weapons. One of them took a swing at him with his sword and the Masked Killer quickly dodged and slashed across the mans chest. The sole remaining hunter raised his axe and took a swing. The Masked Killer rolled out of the way and he slashed across his legs and stabbed him in the back. He then got up and pointed his sword at Weiss. Weiss looked around her, stunned. All four of her bodyguards had been killed right in front of her. She was wondering why he wasn't attacking her, but then she remembered his M.O. He always challenged those who he thought were worthy of a fight. Weiss looked around her and saw that the energy dome was raised. She wouldn't be escaping. Resigned to her fate, Weiss pulled out Myrtenaster. He smiled underneath his mask. He didn't want to kill her in cold blood. No that would be no fun. Weiss switched her sword around to ice, and she stabbed it in the ground. He very easily dodged this attack, but Weiss rushed forward and he could only slightly get out of the way. Her sword was successful in opening up a large wound in his stomach. He looked up to see that she had moved out of the way. He started to heal up his stomach injury as he backed away from Weiss. He had clearly underestimated her. Weiss was just eyeing him carefully. That wound should of have been enough to get him to collapse. He just took the pain in silence, and kept going. He charged her and brought his sword up for an overhead strike. She raised her hand and a glyph appeared, blocking his swords path. Weiss then thrust Myrtenaster forward, trying to catch him unaware. He saw the strike and he dove out of the way. He got up and only had a little time to move out of the way of some fire that Weiss had sent his way. He then stood up, and waited. Two can play this game heiress, he thought. Weiss raised her sword and flew forward at him, and he raised up his hand. An energy shield appeared right in front of Weiss and she collided with it. He then lowered it and quickly thrust his sword through her chest. Weiss only felt pain for a short period of time, and then her vision started to blur. He withdrew his sword from her chest and he watched her body fall to the ground. It was time to start writing.

It was the morning. Ozpin had already arrived to the scene along with several hunters and huntresses. He was staring down at the body of Weiss and all of the hunters surrounding her. He knew that he must of have killed the others first, and then killed Weiss. He didn't want to inform the rest of her team, but he knew that he would have too. He turned to one of the hunters.

"Go get the rest of team RWBY," he said. "They need to see this." The hunter nodded and ran off to team RWBY's dorm. They three girls came walking up, and their faces crumpled when they saw Weiss' body. Ruby immediately ran up to the body of her former partner, and began to cry. Yang had sunken to the ground, and Blake had done the same. Some huntresses were trying to comfort them, but it wasn't really working. They had lost their first team mate, and there was nothing they could do. Ozpin finally new that he had to ask some questions.

"Did anything happen last night that lead you to believe this could happen?" Ruby looked at him angrily.

"Clearly your help didn't do anything for her," she spat. "Because now she's here!"

"Listen Ruby, I just need to know what got her out here. I need to know if there was anything that went on inside of your dorm that would get her to come outside." Ruby didn't calm down, but she tried to think.

"Food," said Yang. "I don't think there was any food in our dorm last night. But that's weird, I thought that me and Blake had gotten some." Ozpin turned to face all of them.

"Where were you three?"

"We received a call, telling us someone had information about the Masked Killer. The call sounded a little strange, but no one showed up."

"He set it up. He must of have stolen what ever food you had pre-stocked and then sent out that call. He set all of this up."

"He's going to pay," said Ruby.

"That's what he wants Ruby. You can't give him what he wants. If you do that, you'll lose."

"I don't care. He won't get away with this."

"Ruby," said Yang. "You have to think about the rest of us. We can't let him win. Where's the note?"

"We haven't found it yet," said one of the hunters. "But we're looking." Blake was just staring in the distance. There was a note, but none of the others could see it.

I know you can see this. Find me tonight, or your secret will be revealed cat faunus. I'll be waiting.

"Blake are you okay?" Asked Yang.

"Yeah," she said. "I thought I saw something. It's odd that he wouldn't leave a note."

"Well," said Ozpin. "We should have these bodies transported. We'll keep looking for a note, but if we can't find it then we'll have to write this off as an error."

He was watching Blake's face. Yes, you naughty kitty. No one knows, and there's no telling how they would respond. No, she would cooperate. His plan was falling into place again.

End: So I'm still moving along at a decent pace, but this will change. The character that I have created isn't patient. He likes to work at a fast pace, so there's your plot line explanation for this.
