The White Healer Ch. 10
Someone in the comments said that TWH went from a passive healer to a seasoned veteran, and that he seems a little OP. Here's as brief of reasoning that I can do. TWH has been a passive healer because he's only been put in those situations. He put himself in a scenario where he had to fight, and he avoided fighting. That also leads to how his power work. His strength lies in his ability to trigger crystals. If Yang were to fight him with just her fists, and no Ember Celica, he might last somewhat long because of his reflexes, but he doesn't fight. That leads to his brothers choice of weapons as well. So he's not really that powerful, he was just fortunate to catch people with dust crystals on them. As for this chapter, this is what happened with the remains of RWBY and JNPR while he dealt with Torchwick.
Yang opened up the door to the dorm, and let everyone in. Some of the darkness that plagued her heart disappeared with the arrival of Blake. Ren and Pyrrha just sat down on their bunks, and Blake looked over to where they were.
"There's five of us," she said. "And only four beds." Yang couldn't believe that she had forgotten about that. She felt awful that she couldn't think to the point of four beds and five people.
"We could share," added in Ren. Yang looked gratefully at Ren.
"You can bunk with me for now Blake," Yang said. "When we finish up, you can get your bed back." Blake looked very skeptically at Yang. Something seemed off as to how she was acting. Not just what Blake had expected with her dealing with the loss of her sister, but she seemed very attached to Blake. Blake nodded instead of responding with any of her words. Yang smiled at her and went to put away the remaining items from her team. Blake climbed up on Yang's bunk, and laid back. Eventually, she became a little restless and stood up. She saw Ren and Pyrrha staying close to each other, Yang was organizing some sort of a chart, and Weiss was just staring off in the distance. Blake made her decision and walked over to Weiss.
"Hey Weiss," she said. Weiss looked over at Blake, surprised that she was talking to her.
"Hey Blake," she replied.
"Can I ask you a few questions?"
"Why not ask Yang? She knows more then me."
"Because some of the questions Yang won't answer. What exactly is the deal with the White Healer?"
"None of us are really sure, besides Yang. She talked with him alone, and she seems more empathetic to him. None of us have been able to get the information from her. What we do know is that he brought us back, and he can bring back the rest of us. We're finally over half way, and we're getting more and more crystals."
"Which leads me to my next question. How are we getting the crystals?" Weiss hesitated at this.
"The White Healer was very specific about the fact that we couldn't be found out from the start. He said that he's never been received well, and if we were caught then he might not be able to finish."
"Weiss, how are you getting the crystals?" Weiss paused for a while longer.
"We've been robbing stores. I'm not proud of it, but we have too. Yang said that we can repay then. We've been avoiding hurting people and taking only what we need." Blake just sat in silence.
"Last question," Blake finally spoke up. "Yang seems very excited to see me back. Has she been reacting this way for everyone."
"No. It's only been you. I think that Yang has been waiting for two people avidly. Ruby, and you."
"Thanks Weiss. I think I know what to do." Blake stood up, and started to walk over to Yang, but she was cut off by a knock on the door. Yang quickly ushered everyone to the restroom, and Weiss told Blake to be quiet. Yang walked over to the door, and opened up the door.
"Hello again Ms. Xiao Long," the White Healer said. "Tell the others to come out because I want all of you here to vote for something." Yang told the others to come out and quickly closed the door. Everyone looked at the White Healer, waiting for him to say something.
"For the first time since my brother showed up," he began. "I have two pieces of good news for you. One, I went after a man by the name of Roman Torchwick. He was robbing a dust shop, and I intervened and stopped him."
"How did you do that?" Asked Pyrrha. "I mean, didn't you say that you couldn't fight."
"I also told you that my aura and dust doesn't mix well. I should explain that a bit more. I must connect my aura to a crystal in order to use it. The issue is, that the connection causes the crystals to explode. The only thing I can sort of use is the white healing crystals. I have to sever my bond with the stone in order to use it. He had several crystals on him, and I took care of him. The news is probably full of information about how volatile the crystals that he took were. The other piece of good news, the shopkeeper gave me some white healing crystals as thanks. I have three more crystals, so we can bring someone back. Do you want to bring someone back tonight and not gather the crystals?" Everyone looked at each other. They looked back at him, and nodded frantically.
"We want to get them back," Weiss said.
"Excellent. I will see you five tonight." The White Healer left without another word. They all looked at each other, and started to wait.
The Masked Killer Memorial: Night
He was up on a nearby building, waiting on them to show up. He saw them running out in the distance, and he allotted himself a small smile. He hopped down from the building, and waited on them to start setting up. The White Healer decided to begin forming his dust pattern while they were setting up. As soon as they had finished setting up, he placed his last crystal. He looked at the three graves with items on them. Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, and Ruby Rose were that remained. He set down his staff, and closed his eyes. The energy from the crystals started to seep towards his staff, and a white light began to form around him. Soon, the light consumed all of the graves. The light faded, and he looked to see who he brought back.
End: Not kidding this is the end. Decided to mix things up a bit. Questions, comments, and feedback is always appreciated. Also, going to apologize for an error that someone pointed out in my last chapter. I somehow typed bong instead of bond, even though the f key is between the g and the d. My bad, I will fix that at some point in the future.
