Chapter 11
Later that night I sat atop one of a building not too far from the docks Blake laid beside me watching.
Sun had buggered off somewhere while we sat watching, my team hidden in alleyways around the area waiting for the que to move in.
"Did I miss anything?" Sun asked hopping up beside us.
"Not really. They've offloaded all the crates from the boat. Now they're just sitting there." Blake said turning her head from him back onto the crates. Even I was bored of waiting by this time.
"Cool. I stole you some food." Sun smiled holding out an apple.
"Do you always break the law without second thought?" Blake retorted.
"Hey, weren't you part of a cult or something?" I slapped my hand over my mouth at his comment Blake only scowled at him.
"Okay, too soon." He whimpered.
"Hey Silver want one?" He asked I only stuck my tongue out.
"I never liked green apples, they always taste too bitter to me." I growled.
Just then an airship flew overhead, it landed among the crates and soon White Fang operatives began to march out.
"Oh no." Blake said.
"Is that them?" Sun asked I smacked him round the head and pointed at the back of one of the members, a snarling red head with a three claw strike across.
"No shit Sherlock." I growled.
"All right. Grab the tow cables." One of them called to the others, he was armed I quickly made an owl hooting noise to call my team to slowly move in with caution.
"You really didn't think they were behind it, did you?" Sun asked I watched as Ice slowly moved to flank them from the east Naniele from the west and Neo was slowly making her way from the south up.
"No. I think deep down I knew. I just didn't want to be right." Blake replied I drew my sword Fenrir and walked to the edge of the building to check the drop. Not too high perfect.
"Hey. What's the hold up?" A voice I knew well yelled. Torchwick I knew he would be here…how would he react to seeing Neo with us though?
"We're not the most inconspicuous bunch of thieves at the moment, so, why don't you animals try to pick up the pace?" He snapped I hopped down and began weaving my way through the crates of dust towards him.
Blake then leapt down and weaved much faster than me she snuck up behind Roman.
"No, you idiot! This isn't a leash!" He growled at one of the members holding a tow cable.
Blake leapt behind him and held her sword to his throat.
"What the-? Oh, for f-" He started but was interrupted by Blake.
"Nobody move!" She commanded the members raised their weapons I made the hoot noise again this time repeating it three times telling my team to draw their weapons.
"Whoa! Take it easy there, little lady." He smirked Blake just tossed of her bow.
"Brother of the White Fang. Why are you aiding this scum?" She asked the members began to back down a little.
"Heh, oh kid. Didn't you get the memo?" He growled as we came close enough for the White Fang members to notice our silhouettes.
"What are you talking about?" Blake snarled as the members turned to raise their weapons against us.
"The White Fang and I are going in on a joint business venture together." He smirked.
"Tell me what it is or I'll put an end to your little operation." Blake growled we all took a step closer to show we are serious, the White Fang members where looking close to panicking.
"I wouldn't exactly call it a little operation." Torchwick exclaimed as more airships flew overhead.
As soon as Torchwick shot his cane we shot out of hiding I tore the linen from my arm and held Fenrir like a baseball bat before swinging it with all my might at the members. Who thanks to their aura, only flew back from my hit.
Ice had drawn his katana and was practically dancing while swinging his blade.
Neo did her usual flips and kicks silently taunting the masked men. Naniele had leapt onto one of the crates and was busy shooting at the members making them feint right into us.
Torchwick was busy with Blake and Sun as more members came I had my hood up to conceal my face but also a little mask with sharp white teeth painted onto it covering my mouth so all they could see were my eyes. To them I was a monster and hell I am going to play the part of The Beast.
That's when Roman saw Neo.
"Neo?" He gasped she turned to him but continued to fight off the Fang.
"These are my friends and you will leave them alone." She signed walking towards him, Torchwick however wasn't happy so in a rage shot down a crate from one of the airships with the purpose of possibly killing her!
I leaped from my fight and shoved her out the way.
Being crushed by a giant metal crate is not fun.
I could feel my bones trying to break, the only way I was going to get out of this is by using my semblance since it gave me the strength to throw this off, but I didn't want to reveal my little helper.
"Gods, your bad at this, use yellow it'll help for sure" The smoke beast was back but this time it looked like a little rat.
"Show them!" It laughed I felt the strength fill me, tensing up my body I began to lift the crate everyone stopped and turned to see me slowly getting off the ground holding the crate above my head.
"Torchwick, you have my respect however, you're forcing me to use my BEAST MODE." I snarled activating my semblance however the spectral turned golden yellow, its teeth fused together leaving large gaping vent like holes, it had more plates and less spikes.
I gave a roar as the spectral howled loudly, the ghastly noise made them all hesitate. I chucked the crate into the waters and turned to the White Fang and shot towards them my fists finding their places in chests and faces.
Penny had leapt down and attacked any members that got to close to her, I looked over and nodded to her before pointing at an airship that was trying to escape. She shot two of her weird puppet blades into it while I used my spectral to grab at it, the huge curved claws dug deep into the metal. Together we brought the thing down to the ground.
I then heard a yelp.
I turned my head to Torchwick who was currently beating Neo with his cane and she just laid there letting it happen. I roared with seething hatred as I ran for him my spectral drew two large spikes and used them as swords sending WF members flying in all directions.
I grabbed him by the head and threw him with all my might into a stack of crates I then turned to face my team the White Fang took one look at me and just slowly walked away as if my eyes were based on movement. I simply nodded for them to leave.
"Well go on…SCRAM!" I yelled the members quickly scrambled up ropes to the safety of the airships before flying off, I crouched beside Neo, my spectral disappearing my body aching and killing.
"You two are not allowed to tell anyone or else." I hissed at them.
"Blake, Silver!" Ruby called running over Penny was nowhere to be seen maybe it's because of the fact she just revealed her own weird ability to everyone.
"Ruby I'm sorry I can't stay I need to get Neo back to Beacon." I explained scooping her up and running off. We came up back to the rooftop Blake and I were hiding on. Neo had faked her bruises quite well considering that it fooled me.
We stood there watching the police gather the unconscious White Fang members and talking to Blake, Sun and Ruby, when Weiss and Yang showed up and had their little friendship regain moment.
"We've kept to the rules so far… Let's hope we can finish this right." Ice smirked I only nodded.
