A small smile came from Yang as she observed her younger sister and her boyfriend. Ruby had been clutching to him ever since they had returned to their dorm room after the Breach. Anyone could see how upset she was with Will, even if she denied her anger towards the Wolf Faunus. Regardless, her sister was happy, and that made her happy. She will have words with him at a later date however, words meaning Ember Cecilia greeting him repeatedly.
A sigh escaped her as Jaune knocked Will on his rear with a single punch. Nora's jaw nearly hit the floor along with Yang, Weiss, and Blake. Ruby was too busy fussing over him to yell at Jaune, Pyrrha was hugging Jaune happily for both having the courage to do such a thing and the fact that her training had given him the ability to accomplish the punch. Ren's eyes simply widened at the affair before him while feebly trying to calm his hyperactive partner.
Yang tried to argue against the two sleeping in the same bed again, but fell asleep as soon as she hit her mattress. She awoke early in the morning to RWBY packing their bags for Summer Break. Yang had hurriedly showered and stuffed her suitcase with clothes before meeting the rest of her team in the cafeteria for one final meal before they split up for the break.
Yang, Ruby, and to Yang's disapproval, Will were all going to Patch to stay with Taiyang, Weiss was going back to Atlas to stay at the Schnee Manor. Yang was planning on bringing Blake with her as she was going to stay at Will's house. Before they all split up to board their different Dust Planes, Yang picked Blake up and brought her onto the one heading to Patch, leaving Will to drag Yang's, Blake's, Ruby's, and his own bags onto the plane. He sat down beside Ruby, out of breath. Blake objected to going with them at first but quickly surrendered.
Sometime during the ride, the four had fallen asleep. Ruby was curled up in Will's lap while his head rested against the wall, fast asleep. Yang had curled up in her seat with Blake. Will's eyes fluttered open as the Dust Jet came to a halt. He sat up with a yawn, careful not to disturb Ruby or the others. He looked out the window and gently shook the younger girl awake.
"Ruby…Time to get up." She protested, snuggling closer to him. With a sigh, he reached over and gently shook Blake awake. "We're here. Can you get Yang up?" She looked at him groggily for a moment before nodding. She sat up and stretched, bones popping audibly. With a shake, Yang awoke slowly. "Mmm? What is it Blakey?" She asked groggily. "We're here." She replied, standing up and grabbing her suitcase.
Yang let out a loud yawn and stretched, sitting up and looking over at Will and Ruby, with Will carrying his bag on his back. "Yang, would you be able to grab Ruby's bag for me? I would but I don't want to wake her up." Yang let a tired smile out as she nodded, dragging Ruby's suitcase alongside her own. Will followed Yang off the plane and to an awaiting Black SUV. A brown haired man leaned against the side of the vehicle, looking over the group with tired, lilac eyes. He smiled and pushed off from the vehicle, embracing his golden haired daughter.
"Hello sweetie, how was the flight?" He asked in a deep voice. "Long and tiring." She replied with a yawn. "Dad, this is Blake, my girlfriend, and Will, Ruby's boyfriend." Blake shook the man's hand while Will nodded respectfully. "Pleasure to meet you sir." He greeted. The father waved him off. "Please, call me Taiyang." He said happily.
Yang smiled at the exchange, opening the rear doors, allowing Blake to enter the SUV. Will followed her in, careful not to disturb Ruby in her slumber. He maneuvered himself to the very back, laying ruby down on the seat before sitting down next to her. She unconsciously moved her head to his lap hugging one of hands tightly. He smiled, stroking her hair with his free hands as Taiyang and Yang both finished loading up the luggage and entered the SUV, Yang sitting next to Blake ad Taiyang in the driver's seat. Soon, they were off, trees flashing by as they made their way to the sister's home.
Soon, the vehicle pulled into a short driveway in front of a two story house. The garage door whirred open and the SUV pulled in, the door lowering behind them. Will smiled and picked Ruby up as both Yang and Blake exited the vehicle. He carefully exited the vehicle, trying to avoid bumping the small girl against anything as Yang guided him towards her room. He observed the room as Yang opened the door. Rose red walls were illuminated in the moonlight, a twin sized bed was in the corner next to a simple desk with different pieces of various weapons scattered upon it. Her dresser stood on the other side of the window, next to the closet. He walked over to the bed and set her down on the sheets.
As he turned to walk away, Will felt a tugging on his robe. He turned and looked down at Ruby, whose eyes were cracked open slightly. "Will...Come lay down…." She said groggily. With a smile, he sat next to her and stroked her hair. "Taiyang would kill me if he saw us sleeping together Ruby." She let out a groan.
"Just go to sleep, I'll be here in the morning." Will says with a smile. She shakes her head, pulling him down onto the bed and locking her arms around his waist. "At least stay here till I fall asleep?" She asked, looking up at him with her signature puppy-dog stare. He sighed and nodded. "Very well Rubes." He proceeded to pull the covers from underneath Ruby carefully and drape them over the girl before laying next to her under the covers.
In response, Ruby cuddled close to him, sighing happily. Will steadily ran his fingers through her hair, using his semblance slightly to help the girl fall asleep.
Will sat up with a yawn, sliding out from under the bed and kissing the girl on the forehead. "Sleep well my little rose…" The wolf faunus turned and walked from her room, closing the door quietly before turning around and meeting Blake's amber eyes paired with Yang's lilacs. He jumped and sighed, leaning against the wall.
"Oh, hello girls. She's sound asleep now, as much as she didn't want me to leave." He looked between the two, who were looking quite serious. "Is something wrong you two?"
Yang stepped forward. "Yea, lets go outside and talk. Blake, you comin'?" She questioned the raven haired cat faunus next to her. She nodded. "Sure, I would like to share my thoughts too."
Will's eyes widened slightly, aware of what was coming. "U-Um...There is no way I can escape this, is there?" Both girls shook their head. He sighed, nodding. "Alright...I guess I saw this coming. Lead the way."
Yang nodded, leading the two out the back of her house and into the back yard. Will stood facing the house with the two in front of him. He looked around, noticing the cuts in the ground along with small craters and burn marks, most likely from Yang and Ruby's training. He looked along the back of the house, noticing a silhouette watching them from one of the windows.
"You do know I'm going to fight back, correct?" Both girls nodded.
"You do know that I will not hold back but will not kill, correct?" They nodded again, Yang cocking Ember Cecilia and Blake readying Gambol Shroud. Will's eyes darkened, throwing his hood up and drawing Naze, the spear crackling with electricity as it was charged.
Yang was the first to make a move, charging towards him with her hair ablaze and eyes red. Will jumped backwards to avoid a powerful punch from the girl. What he didn't account for was the shotgun function of the gauntlets. The slug flew from its barrel and impacted the illusionist, sending him flying back. He planted the butt of his spear into the ground, using it to slow his motions. He lifted his hand and closed his eyes. As his aura flared to life, the girls could see that it was more blue than black now. The boys eyes shot open and tendrils of his aura flared out, taking the form of what seemed to be snakes.
While the two were distracted by the snakes, a tendril of black aura glided across the ground towards Yang. As soon as it touched her foot, she collapsed. Blake turned towards him and aimed her gun, opening fire. He hurriedly covered himself in a dome of ice. It didn't hold long however, as Blake's bullets began to crack the dome. the hail of bullets stopped and he took the chance to jump out of the dome, using its surface to launch himself towards the girl. She finished reloading just as she landed near her and swung Naze. She quickly ducked under the blade, feeling the electricity coursing through it. Blake brought her katana in an upwards strike, the blade glancing off his aura.
Will grunted as he was struck, the spells had taken a lot of his aura and hardly any was left. He looked at the girl and stabbed at her. The spear struck but flew right through her as she dissipated, nothing but a clone. He growled and turned around, meeting the barrel of Blake's gun. She shook her head and pulled the trigger, the rubber bullet knocking him unconscious.
The wolf illusionist awoke inside on top of the couch. He sat up slowly, rubbing the spot where the bullet impacted. A bump had formed since he was knocked out, a rather painful mark from his punishment dished out by the two girls. Will groaned and stood shakily, looking out the window and noticing the rising sun. The first day for a new beginning. Hopefully his past wouldn't came back to bite him.
