CRNM(sins) Episode 15 (The Bar, We fight Pt.2)
"Hey Nelek! How about here! Or here! How about this one!"
Raen and Nelek were roaming the streets of the downtown Vale area, where Raen interests comes upon the stores that he sees every few blocks from walking.
Nelek shakes his head or stays silent to say "no" to all of Raen's suggestions since most of the stores he suggests were over-aged places or areas of no purpose to walk into.
"Well, since we cannot go to any of these places, then what do you want to do then?"
Nelek looks around and points over to the bookstore across the street that remained opened.
"A bookstore? Okay! Let's buy a souvenir there."
As Raen and Nelek walk towards over the next corner, the RWBY team approaches across a different corner along the same street they went on.
"I just don't understand why we should come to this dump at all." Weiss speaks as she walks ahead from the rest of the group.
"Weiss we have to find information on that suspect team everyone has been trying to catch." Blake replies.
"Of course I know that, it makes me constricted by the fact we have to come all the way to this underworld."
"Well this 'underworld' is the best place to find about almost anything you can think of," says Yang, "Isn't that what your family does as well."
"Eh-Hem! The Schnee Dust Company only operates on daily basis to collect appropriate information to aid in keeping our customers the right satisfaction."
"Right, like how you gave Ruby that pamphlet the first time you two met."
"Guys let's focus here," Ruby said, "What are we all doing here again?"
"Well I need to buy a book from the bookstore here," answered Blake.
"You do that. I'm going to my favorite place, they got the best strawberry sunrises!" Yang speaks and leaves.
"Uhm...Maybe I should come…" says Ruby.
"Woah!" Yang stops immediately, "Ruby, the place I went to before is kind of…older. Maybe Weiss can come with me."
"Fine, but I'll be waiting outside. I don't want to be anywhere near that polluted area."
"Great! See ya sis!" Yang leaves the group with Weiss following behind here.
Ruby sighs in worry as both of them leave.
"Worried for both of them?" Blake comes in for support.
"No, I just wonder what Yang does by herself when I'm not around."
"Yang can take care of herself since you already know. What's the worst that might come to here?"
"Oh you would not know sister."
"AHHH!"
Henchmen flying around, some on the ground, and destruction and mayhem about in the club.
"See? This is the reason you never get involved with blonds," Magellan speaks under cover behind the bar with Junior, "They are annoying as- (Henchman slammed at the bar) OH COME ON!"
"What am I going to do Magellan!? This rate the club is going to be destroyed, again!"
"Ok here's the plan. You hide here and hope she won't find you while I, the Magellan, gets out of here."
"Right…WAIT THAT'S NOT A PLAN!"
"Well I already paid and paid before here last time, (Magellan stands up) so pretty much you're on your own. Make a lie and get out, your best chance."
"Wait! Magellan!"
Magellan heads over to Crim's side of the bar where the guy was calm even under the commotion that was happening, finished eating and just drinking to a heart's content.
"Come Crim- AH WHA THE- (Magellan picks up a glass what Crim drank from) You drank all the strawberry beverages? What kind of thick stomach do you have? Come on we have to leave."
Magellan runs under all the fire that was taking place between one girl and a herd of henchmen with guns and swords, heading for the stairs out of the place.
Yang heads over to the bar area after going through the entire company of henchmen that tried stopping her but failed miserably.
"Hello?" Yang stands over the bar area, "Oh here you are (Yang picks up Junior over the table and grabs him by the neck) Junior!"
"Ugh, (Junior having his neck clenched) why come back 'Gulp' sir?"
"Did dig up anything from our last chat?"
"NO! I couldn't find anything yet! (Looking over to Magellan running away) Uh how about this! I'll set up a contact for you to meet! He's the one who knows everything not me!"
At the same time the conversation occurred, Crim put down his last glass on the table, got up, and started walking away.
"Aww that's so sweet of you Junior. Now… (Yang grabbing Junior up in the air with one hand and the other threatening to punch him) Since I'm here how about giving me the strawberry sunrise I didn't get last time, with the umbrella of course."
"Well, ugh, you're out of luck Blondie! One guy already drank all of it!"
"WHAAT!?"
Yang looks over to the other side of the table with all the empty glasses and eaten plates, turns to the guy with the gray jacket walking away.
She throws Junior over the bar in a rage, giving Junior some birds to see over his head until a plate breaks as it falls on him and gets knocked out, and Yang heads towards the dark guy to confront him.
"HEY YOU!"
Crim looks towards the voice and notices the same girl who was chasing after him on the train ride and instantly turning back.
"HEY!" Yang nears Crim as she pulls his shoulder to turn a little bit, "Listen when someone's talking! You drank all the strawberry sunrises!?"
"Yeah…"
"Aww man, and I came here just for nothing. Again…"
Crim tries walking away again until Yang ran up in front of him, making him turn his head from her.
"Hey! (Yang peers her head to see his face) What's the matter? Did I offend you?"
"…No."
"Come on! Tell me! Do my looks bother you or something?"
Crim bluntly says, "Yes." Through the fact he can't let her see him.
"What? (Yang catching an angry expression) Do you think I'm pretty to you?"
"…No."
Catching that last statement, Yang prepares her Ember Celica, glaring red bright eyes, and at the same time brings an incoming hook at the offender's face, yelling, "What was THAT!?"
Out of all the henchmen that flew after one punch, this victim stood his ground without budging even in a straight stance, still having the fist at his cheek from a fire blast.
The blast knocks off Crim's hood as the same time Magellan looks back to check on the blast he heard from the top entrance, seeing how Crim is in trouble and stays calm in the situation.
"AH!" Yang becomes surprised after what she did to the stranger and pulls back her fist, "What did I do!? Sorr- (Yang looks closely at the stranger's face) Hey… have I seen you before?"
Crim brings into eye contact to Yang, glaring his blinded red Aura eyes, clenches his right fist, and throws a punch at Yang.
She quickly remembered his face and at the last second puts up a defensive block with her gauntlets, taking the punch head on and gets knocked back all the way to the DJ section.
As glass shatters and the entire dance floor shut down, Crim looks up about what he did and then shakes his head after the blast as he tries to regain senses.
Blasting out from the stereo area and onto the dance floor again, Yang stands up against Crim while both of them have injured cheeks showing on opposite sides.
"So," Yang speaks, "You escape from the train, arrive here and drink all the sunrises, and NOW you punch a girl in the cheek!? Ohhh... (Yang puts up her weapons) you are SO going down."
Crim stays silent as ever and puts up his own guard, an untrained stance, and faces Yang to start off the fight.
In the Vale Bookstore "Fairytale", Raen explores the music and DVD section, picking up a copy of "BVR" and puts it down, then he looks over the sample plug music which he brings out his own earphones, plugs into the input, and starts listening to the music.
Nelek searches through the rows and shelves of books to see what catches his Beowolf eyes, picking out a book and flipping through the pages then putting it back.
He comes across a book called, "Ninjas of Love 2", reads through the lines and stops in the middle, looks up to the camera and shrugs his shoulders to say "Eh".
As he keeps reading he hears doorbell ringing with his Grimm ears, looking over to the people who entered the field of knowledge, but is shocked to see who came.
"Come on! Please tell what you're buying, I want to know!" Ruby exclaimed.
"No, it's my own business." Blake replied.
"Ugh why…? I want to help."
"Humph, Yang's right, you do sneak into other people's business too much."
"And what's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing, just go over and do what you want."
"Fine…"
Ruby walks toward to the music section with her headphones out while Blake walks to the romantic section of the book aisle.
As she walks by, Nelek is hidden behind rows of books to escape her presence of the girl who is trying to hunt the CRNM(sins) team down.
As the constant fighting and echoes reach outside the club, Weiss finds herself in the position whether to keep waiting or to check what's happening inside.
"Honestly!" Weiss speaks alone, "How long does it take for one- Ah, never mind. Why does an heiress have to check what the party girl is doing...?"
Weiss starts to walk towards the entrance until someone comes out of the doors, having Weiss stop immediately against the person.
"Whew!" Magellan says, "Crim doing a hell of a beating to the blondie!"
"What!?"
"Huh?" Magellan turns around and sees Weiss about 10 feet from him, "What do you want?"
"Are you one of those goons inside that place?"
"WOAH! Don't compare me with those A-holes. I-"
Weiss draws her weapon against Magellan as he doesn't comes afraid to the position he is now in.
"I reckon I heard a "blond" being "beaten" inside there. Is that true?"
"Sure though-"
"Then stand aside! (Weiss slides up and comes pointing the rapier at Magellan's face)"
"HEY-HEY! I'm just trying to reach my car!"
"Then then stand aside already! (Weiss pokes at the side of Magellan's coat)"
"…Kid. (Magellan brings out his daggers from out his wrists, Weiss steps back) You should know better not to mess with grownups, and even if you did, here's a swift lesson. NO ONE, even a kid, DOES NOT "MESS", with the Magellan…"
Meanwhile in the Club, Crim and Yang comes head to head against each other, Yang delivering many decisive blows as Crim stands with arms up blocking like a turtle.
The battle rages on the dance floor, Yang keeps firing with her Ember Celica, having Crim get pushed one inch at a time from every blast he took.
Next heavy blast, Yang punches through Crim's guard, without missing this chance, uses her other gauntlet to bring her forward and bring a dashing kick at Crim combined with a twirling roundhouse next.
From the impact, Crim still was only knock a 3 feet back, on his knees absorbing the combo and getting use to her attacks, and stands back up with his hands up and the blackened face he's been given.
"You want some more?" Yang intimidates, "Heh, your move."
Crim rushes up with his hands up and brings a right hook at her, seeming extremely powerful and strong.
Yang dodges easily to the side, making Crim lose complete control and balance and carrying his body down with his right fist, giving Yang another opportunity.
She quickly gives a jab at Crim's head, uppercut to lift his chin, sending a barrage of combined punches, then a heavy blast with a hook swing to the temple area.
The victim gets sent 2 feet and to the floor, immediately getting back up one movable bone at a time even with more blackened injuries than last impact.
Though no bones still were not broken, something did crack, silently that only the possible eye can notice the difference.
'Sigh' (Yang starts to calm herself with no glaring red eyes) "Had enough? I'm starting to feel sorry for beating you already. Give up."
'Huff' "…No. You're starting to break…"
"What? Want are you talking about? 'Chuckle' No one can break me-" 'Gasp'
As Yang lifted her gauntlets she notices the front shields have emerged small cracks, indicating extensive damage had be taken from even delivering many blows to those unbreakable bones.
After the realization of what he meant, Yang starts bringing out a fiery semblance, very violently and growing from inside Yang and with her blazing red eyes reappearing as well.
"You…ARE SO DEAD! RAHHHH!"
Yang comes charging with a burning trail blaze, at an extreme speed as Crim awaits to block against her straightforward charge.
When the glass in the club comes breaking once again by a shining impact to light, Weiss and Magellan are fighting on their own battle with each other.
Magellan throws waves of daggers with the speed of a bullet as he runs ahead and tries hitting Weiss while she slides gracefully with her Myrtenaster leading her.
Each dagger keeps missing and starts to show a row of patterned daggers upon walls of stores.
"HOLD STILL ALREADY WOULD YA!" Magellan frustrated with the constant running and missing, throwing more daggers and still missed, "UHG! Kids these days! Getting weirder and weirder…"
At the right moment, Weiss stops and pulls her weapon back and prepares multiple small glyphs around her and sends them all at once at Magellan.
"AH SHOOT!" Magellan responds with flinging more daggers at each one from his wrists.
Preparing to fire off more, a cling sound only came through as he realizes he is out of ammo on his daggers.
"Oh come on!" Infuriated Magellan takes off his black coat and brings out his swordbreaker, "Ok kid, you want some? Come and get it."
"You're speaking with a big mouth even though you're the one losing."
"What can I say, I aim to retaliate."
Weiss attacks from that last statement, aiming her point to finish off her opponent, closing in with a potential amount of speed.
Magellan brings his weapon under handed, waits casually for his attacker to come with a distinct smirk to his face, and dodges the attack by moving to the side.
He puts his swordbreaker in the rapier's path, in between the latches that catch on any blade, and when the point came in range Magellan clings his weapon onto the blade of the rapier, stopping the wielder's movement.
Weiss gets drawn to Magellan by their weapon stuck together, which now comes in a matter of strength for which Weiss can't win against the Magellan's sheer power.
"So now you're caught," Magellan speaks in a bad guy voice as he looks down at Weiss, struggling her rapier to get free, "How should I win? Take you down right here, or break your weapon?"
Weiss finally lets go of her Myrtenaster, making Magellan fling her weapon away, charges right at her, and trips her with her face flat on the floor.
Magellan makes his final act by taking out an extendable wire put from his wrist, put an end into a loop, and put it around Weiss's feet while she was still down.
Attaching another dagger to his wrist, Magellan lifts his arm, points at the nearest top of a building, and fires off his dagger at the direction.
The dagger with the wire attached to it drags Weiss from the ground, even how small it is, brings her up and hanging upside down by a wire.
Weiss regains notice of the position she is in, keeps her skirt down from being taken by gravity, and sees Magellan taking his handheld scroll out.
"HEY! LET ME DOWN THIS INSTANT!"
"Yeah I don't think so," Magellan aims the scroll at his face with Weiss in range and takes a photo.
"DI-DID YOU THINK A PICTURE!? GET ME OUT!"
"Kid you're in no position to argue with (Magellan takes his coat and puts it on) Later…"
"COME BACK HERE! INSOLENT SNOB!"
In the club, the struggle against two wounded opponents goes on with one opponent continuing an assault of punches against the other, defending his ground arms up on the white dance floor.
At the final fiery blast to the face, Yang steps back with her gauntlets and notices the pump action not coming back from the broken shield on one of the gauntlets.
The shell inside the gauntlet becomes jammed, unable to release out and now stuck in between the spacing of coming out and the shield of where it pumps in.
With his opponent distant and distracted, Crim breaks from his guard and charges straight at Yang, noticing and switching over to defense.
Crim comes into range and begins his own barrage of fists, starting off with a right swing that breaks open her guard, making Yang slightly lose balance and sends her a few feet back.
Next incoming charge Yang attempts to counter with her other fist right at Crim's head, making it a direct blast to the side of the head.
As Crim becomes fazed by the blast, Yang chokes back the gauntlet and finds it also jammed from the damage it has taken just by dishing out damage to one enemy.
Crim quickly comes out of his faze and continues his attack, breaking over Yang's guard with slow swings, hooks, and downward attacks right over her Aura that defends her.
With Yang stunned from attacks to her face, Crim puts his hands together, brings them over his head, and slams right down at Yang's backside of her head with tremendous force, breaking apart the dance floor through a crater at the ground and shaking the entire club apart.
From the crater that lays Yang's face at the ground, the last guy standing starts walking towards the exit but only able to go a few feet until he gets on one leg and the other bent on the ground exhausted from the Dust blasts.
As she seems defeated as well, Yang brings one hand up then the other to her side, fists down, and pushes herself up from the crater, head first, and reveals her glaring Aura still bright from her eyes.
Crim turns and slowly gets up, Yang as well at even a slower pace, both of them breathing heavily even if the damage they both took is spaced extremely far apart.
With the bruises and black vessels, Crim and Yang prepare for a final attack, Yang blasting out her final flame of semblance in her, and Crim slams both fists onto his knees bringing on a square stance and dark Aura still surrounding him.
Both of them charge right at one another, Yang faster than Crim's speed, and both of them aim their fists right at the face, and at impact brings a fiery end to both fighters with the club windows blasting out to the outside and all the way to blowing apart the roof.
Magellan views from the outside and sees the entire club in shambles when he arrived with his purple sports car and then immediately runs in.
Ruby searches through the array of magazines with her headphones on listening to rocking tunes, Raen with his back turned listening to his brand of classical music with his earphones and eyes closed conducting with his fingertips at the music section.
As Blake searches through the sections of books, Nelek hides behind the other side of the section with books covering his existence by reorganization.
'Sigh' "It's not here…" Blake speaks frustrated, "Where is 'Ninjas of Love 2'?"
Nelek crouched over hears what she says and notices the book he was reading right in his hands, thinks of a thought, and then he puts the book right across to Blake's section which she notices.
"AH! (Blake picks up the book) Here it is! …But I thought passed here already. Hello?"
Blake becomes suspicious at the other side as Nelek becomes terrified of her slowly moving to the aisle of where he is at.
Before the final steps to finding the helping soul, Blake's scroll starts ringing and she unlocks it and finds Weiss on the Comm.
"BLAKE! ARE YOU THERE!"
"Weiss? What's the problem?"
"The 'problem' if you should is that I'm hanging by one leg and upside down! Get over here!"
"Woah, where's Yang?"
As the conversation continued on, Nelek runs as fast as he could and grabs Raen by his arm and immediately runs, avoiding suspicion out the exit.
"Huh?" Ruby feels the hustof wind that flows right past her as she takes off the headphones, looking around and sees nothing in sight, only the breeze coming toward the open door as the bell rings when it closes.
