Magnus: I'm sorry for the delay, but I couldn't touch these chapters without a heartache. I really loved Penny, and I swear she is going to have a very happy ending.
Disclaimer: If I owned RWBY... the end of season 3 would not have run that way.
Chapter 12
The Stray
The shrine of love has been open for almost three months, and in that time, it had become a popular spot for the open minded and the tolerant, to the point where Ozpin was amazed; the council of course accepted Kanetsugu's religion, but with the condition that it had to survive for a whole year before the monk was accepted as a full priest, with all the authority entitled, such news were not accepted or appreciated by many students, and a couple of teachers.
As for the teachings, Ozpin had to admit that they were interesting, and very much welcomed, for the battle monk always spoke in a way that left clear that there was no room for arguments, even intolerant people like team CRDL couldn't deny the truth of his words: Huntsmen and Huntresses risked their lives every day for all people, both humans and faunus, and thus, they fought for their love to all of them; the faces on all students that had heard that line was memorable, for the monk destroyed moral walls without even trying, without even knowing.
Then just a week ago something happened; as it was obvious, only one person could not handle all that was the management of a shrine, so Kanetsugu did the most logical thing, he recruited people to help in maintaining it, and spread his teachings… and who else but the most controversial couple of the school: Velvet and Yatsuhashi… that almost got a complaint against the school by some parents, but to Ozpin, it was well worth it.
"Well worth it indeed…" Ozpin muttered as he watched his hand glow with the healing power of his own aura, a power that now could be used on any living thing, and not only on himself… it didn't hold a candle to what Kanetsugu could do, for it actually required the use of large quantities of aura to even heal minor wounds, but it certainly was a massive help in the field, for now hunters could heal the wounds of companions that had run out of aura, or civilians during rescue missions.
"More than worthy…" Ozpin muttered again as he took a bite of some delicious fresh bread, which instantly replenished the aura expended in the healing technique. He idly noted the successful students on these techniques…
"Velvet, Jaune, Ruby and Glynda seems the most advanced, let's hope more get up to speed." Ozpin finally said as he looked at the ones attending Kanetsugu's teachings; he noted that in fact, only the ones attending got the techniques right, as the battle monk explained that the results of the techniques were closely tied to one's feelings; that explained all the beneficial effects, for the students with most success seemed to be crazy in love with another person… he stopped right there, and looked intently at Glynda…
"Does that mean that you are in love too? But with who?" Ozpin said to himself with wide eyes; he promptly decided to not delve into it, it wasn't his place to criticize such things. Ozpin then checked the cameras of the shrine, and noticed that it was Yatsuhashi who was helping people to read the Edo writings in the walls, then he remembered that both teams RWBY and NKRA had gone to the city in a group outing; he decided to wait until their return to continue his observations, and then proceeded to have his own practice on calligraphy, he really wanted to do a better paper charm, already planning scenarios were a well placed explosive mine could help in saving people, or preventing a disaster…
At the city…
The streets were bustling with activity, banners and other decorations were hung from the windows of business, lampposts and street lights; the mood in the people was bright, happy and slightly competitive, and the reason for all of this was a most important event in the horizon…
"Oh! The Vytal Festival! This is going to be absolutely wonderful!" Weiss exclaimed as she took in all the preparations, showing a rather uncommon face.
"I think I've never have seen you smile like this before, Weiss; it's kind of freaking me out…" Ruby stated with a little bit of worry in her voice.
"Why? I think it is a beautiful smile, and makes her shine every time she does it." Mitsuhide said in Weiss' defense, much to the annoyance of the group.
"Great, I can't wait to see you two starting a clan of stuck up and haughty people." Ranmaru sarcastically said, earning chuckles from both teams, and a faint blush from the white pair.
"Oh, shut it you! Besides, how can't you be smiling? It is a festival dedicated to the cultures of the world, and that includes Edo!" Weiss continued with her joyful tirade, not caring to correct Ranmaru on his assumption.
"There will be a tournament, dances and the official announcement of Glynda-sensei's book! The level of organization displayed is simply breath taking." Weiss finished, showing that even she was using the language brought by the samurai warriors.
"You sure know how to take a good thing and make it sound boring." Yang suddenly said, making Ranmaru laugh at her jab.
"If you can't appreciate the efforts of organized men and women to make this festival so delectable, you shouldn't judge those who can." Mitsuhide defended once more, making Weiss giggle, and Yang growl.
"As interesting as this is, what does that have to do with us spending our Friday afternoon in the docks?" Nobunaga asked, as dramatically as it was possible, preventing more hostility to be shown, even if it was a playful one.
"Ugh! It smells like fish!" Ruby said with obvious distaste, while Blake was doing her best to not show her watering mouth.
"I've heard that students of Vaccuo will arrive by ship today, and as representative of Beacon, I felt it was my duty to welcome them to this fine kingdom." Weiss explained in what could only be an exaggeration of her real intentions.
"She wants to spy on them so she can have the upper hand in the coming tournament." Blake suddenly said, exposing the heiress; Nobunaga had to admit it was a sound strategy, but didn't dare to praise another woman that wasn't his catgirl.
"You can't prove that!" Weiss said in a futile attempt to hide her intentions, making everyone roll their eyes. It was then that Ruby got everyone's attention, for she looked too intently at a business that had been robbed, if the ungodly amount of yellow tape was any indication; the group was quick to reach the crime scene, where a pair of policemen was taking notes, and gathering evidence, what little it was.
"What happened?" Ruby asked, concerned when she noticed the name of the store.
"Robbery, second dust shop to be hit this week; this city is turning into a jungle." One of the policemen replied, obviously tired at doing his job, thing that team NKRA didn't approve.
"That's terrible…" Yang muttered, obviously stressed at seeing the hidden reality of their city.
"With all the cameras you'd think the city would be safer." Mitsuhide suddenly said, getting the attention of team RWBY, for that little detail had become so common, that it was mostly overlooked.
"They may have many eyes, but maybe they don't have enough hands?" Nobunaga was quick to add, sending everyone into a thinking position.
"They left all the money again." One officer stated, returning the attention of both teams to the crime scene.
"Yeah, this doesn't make sense." The other officer replied, obviously puzzled at the evidence.
"Who need that much dust?" When that question came up, Nobunaga frowned; this sounded like the preparations for something big, the ones who committed this crime didn't need money, but resources, that means either they are rich and didn't want to be tracked, or they plan to make money inconsequential…
"I don't know… the army?" That answer seemed to confirm Nobunaga's suspicion; a quick glance at Kanetsugu was enough to see that he and the battle monk will have a long chat about this.
"You thinking the… ah… White Fang?" With that question, both Weiss and Blake frowned, but for very different reasons.
"Yeah, I don't think we are paid enough" With that final answer the policemen returned to their duties, whatever they were.
"Hn, the White Fang; what a bunch of degenerates!" Weiss suddenly exclaimed, showing a rather high level of hatred.
"This again, Weiss?" Blake asked in an alarming serious tone, but Weiss simply raised her hand in a stop gesture.
"This has nothing to do with their race, they are criminally insane." Weiss replied as if claiming victory, more over herself than over Blake.
"The White Fang are hardly a bunch of psychopaths. They are a collection of misguided faunus." Blake suddenly said, struggling to remain calm.
"Misguided? They want to wipe out humanity of the face of the planet!" Weiss exclaimed, and this earned concerned stares from both Mitsuhide and Nobunaga.
"So they are very… misguided. Either way, that doesn't explain why they would rob a dust shop in the middle of downtown Vale." Blake stated, wisely directing the argument toward another direction.
"Blake got a point. Besides, the police never caught that Torchwick guy I ran into a few months ago… maybe it was him?" Ruby added her input.
"That doesn't change that the White Fang are a bunch of scum. Those faunus only know how to lie, cheat and steal." Weiss suddenly returned to her tirade of hatred, and Blake seemed ready to explode, if not for Nobunaga suddenly hugging her; it was not a restraining move, it was a move to tell her that he was on her side, that she was no longer alone, thing that she really appreciated.
"That is not necessarily true." Yang said, not taking very well Weiss attitude; she and Ruby have grown on a community that got along with faunus, so they learned long ago that faunus are persons, just like humans.
"HEY! Stop that faunus!" A sudden yell got the attention of both teams, stopping the coming argument. The teams ran in time to watch a male blonde monkey faunus jumping off from a ship, a stowaway by the screams of the crew; he showed great agility when escaping from everyone, although not much in the sense of respect, if the banana peel thrown at the policeman was any indication; when his escape route passed through where teams RWBY and NKRA were standing, the monkey faunus winked at Blake, much to her indignation, and to Nobunaga's annoyance.
"Well, Weiss, you wanted to see the competition, and there it goes." Yang said, while Blake gave a squeeze to Nobunaga's hand, she felt his discomfort at the gesture of the monkey faunus, and that made her feel special, and a little bit of undeserving, it was only fair to let him know that she was his, and no one was going to change that; Nobunaga certainly appreciated the gesture.
"Quick! We have to observe him!" Weiss suddenly called as she began the pursuit, and while everyone followed her, Mitsuhide could only shake his head at how quick she was to assume that the stowaway would participate in the tournament.
The chase didn't last long, for as they turned a corner to keep following the monkey and the policemen, Weiss collided with someone, making both teams stop, allowing the other group to be lost in the distance.
"NO! He's got away!" Weis cried her failure, seemingly not noticing the other person below her.
"Aaahh… Weiss?" Yang suddenly called to attention, while signaling the girl below the heiress; she was a pale white girl with freckles, curly orange hair with a pink bow that seemed to be wrongly placed, and green eyes that seemed… off.
"AH!" Weiss cried as she stood up in haste.
"Salutations!" The girl greeted them in a cheerful way that was… odd.
"Hello." Ruby returned the greeting, although even she found the girl weird.
"Are you… ok?" Yang asked with concern, the girl was acting too strange to be alright.
"I'm wonderful! Thank you for asking." The girl cheerfully replied, but she had to yet make a move to stand up, or even sit.
"Do you… want to get up?" Yang asked now, even more worried for the girl, just one step to call an ambulance.
"Yes!" The girl replied after a few seconds of consideration, then she stood up with an agility that belied her appearance, forcing both teams to take a step back in precaution.
"My name is Penny, is a pleasure to meet you!" The girl said, her eyes swept across both teams, although Ranmaru could have sworn that the girl took an instant to individually look at each one of them.
Then both teams proceeded to introduce themselves, and Ranmaru noted with uneasiness how she looked at each one of them as they mentioned their names, as if drinking all their features, tone of voice and even level of aura, all within the span of a mere second for each person, all with that silly smile on her face; for good or ill, Ranmaru could tell that the smile was real.
"Are you sure you didn't hit your head? I mean, Yang." Yang finished after being elbowed by Ranmaru, as startling as the girl was, there was no need to begin hostilities.
"It's a pleasure to meet you!" Penny repeated her second greeting, but as much as she moved as a bad actor, her cheerfulness was real, just as her silly smile.
"You already said that." Weiss stated as a matter of a fact.
"So I did!" Penny replied, it was impossible to tell why was so happy after such simple thing.
"Well, sorry for running into you!" Weiss said and then she turned to leave, action mirrored by everyone, as they saw no need to keep chatting with the strange girl, they all had more important things to do.
"Take care, friend." Ruby said her good bye, not seeing that the girl seemed distraught at her choice of words.
"She was…" Yang began to say as they walked some distance.
"Weird?" Ranmaru completed, but there was no smile or laughs, for he was left feeling uneasy on the presence of the strange girl.
"Now, where did that faunus riff-raff run to?" Weiss tried to change the subject back to where she wanted, but couldn't continue as she took notice of who was now in front of them.
"What did you call me?" Penny, who suddenly appeared before them, asked with such seriousness that it scared both teams.
"GAH! WE ARE SORRY!" Both Yang and Ranmaru shouted as they hugged each other, all while Weiss and Mitsuhide made hilarious motions trying to understand how the girl could move so fast and silently.
"No. Not you… You." Penny said, first to Yang and Ranmaru, then to Ruby, to whom she walked to, until she was at arm's reach.
"Me? But I…" Ruby tried to back off, only to end leaning on Kanetsugu, who gently held her, ready to shield her, should the strange girl tried anything remotely harmful.
"You called me friend! Am I really your friend?" Penny asked with a strange sense of urgency, as if pleading to confirm such claim, which actually moved the heart of the battle monk; Ruby turned to look at the rest of her and Kanetsugu's team, the six members where either shaking their heads no, or waving their hands in a form of negation, then she turned to Kanetsugu, who was still holding her, said monk just shrugged, although his smile told her that he didn't mind.
"Yeah, sure. Why not?" Ruby replied, much to the dismay of the others, who could only face palm at the turn of events. Penny replied to this with an outburst of happiness, and then went on a tirade about how they would do a lot of girly things together as friends… on the side lines Ruby and Weiss were forced to remember the first day they met, not precisely a pleasant memory.
"So… what are you doing in Vale?" Yang asked, hoping to warm up to the girl… Ruby already called her friend; there was little else she could do now.
"Oh! I'm here to fight in the tournament." Penny replied instantly, her upbeat attitude didn't seem to match such declaration though… as if the tournament was the least important of her objectives.
"Wait, you are fighting in the tournament?" Weiss asked, full of doubt.
"I'm combat ready!" Penny replied while giving a mock salute.
"Forgive me, but you hardly look the part." Weiss suddenly shot, but regretted it as she felt Mitsuhide pat her shoulder, it wasn't in a pleasant way.
"Deceptive looks make for dangerous foes; there is nothing worse than to underestimate someone without knowing anything about such person." Mitsuhide chastised her, and she could only nod at the wise words of the man she wanted for herself.
"Besides, you are hardly one to judge with that dress of yours." Blake couldn't resist the opening for a jab, which actually made Nobunaga laugh.
"It's a combat skirt!" Weiss quickly defended, and this was instantly followed by Ruby's support and a high five; suddenly something clicked on the mind of the heiress…
"Wait a minute; if you are here for the tournament… does that mean you know that, monkey tailed rapscallion?" Weiss asked, a little too eager to get information, this in turn made Blake tremble in anger.
"The who?" Penny asked in honest confusion, still noticing the worried looks of the males in the group.
"The filthy faunus from the boat!" Weiss exclaimed in exasperation; Nobunaga and Mitsuhide quickly exchanged glances and nodded to each other, as much as they hated to do teamwork, they would not allow the girls to escalate the fight.
"Why do you keep saying that?!" Blake asked in obvious rage, taking the ice princess by surprise.
"Stop calling him a rapscallion! Stop calling him a degenerate! He is a person!" Blake continued, gaining more strength on her tirade.
"Oh, I'm sorry, would like me…" Whatever Weiss was going to say was stopped as Mitsuhide gave a chop to the head, soft enough to not cause injury, strong enough to hurt; the look on her face first screamed of outrage, then surprise, then understanding.
"Who is speaking, you or your father?" Mitsuhide asked with a stern voice, successfully silencing the heiress; meanwhile, Nobunaga got a hold of Blake, and she could tell that this time she was being restrained; it was a strange feeling, because she didn't feel betrayed, or attacked, yet she didn't feel as if being given support.
"Blake, that faunus guy traveled as a stowaway, threw fruit to a police officer, resisted arrest, and is possibly causing chaos as he flees; that is hardly a upstanding member of society, that is hardly a person worth defending; save that strength for a man worthy of you." Nobunaga's words cut deep into her heart, she immediately began to imagine how betrayed her beloved boyfriend felt after she defended another guy so zealously, just because he was of the same species.
"G-Gomen… I…" Blake couldn't form a proper answer as she felt a lump forming in her throat, the knot in her stomach didn't help either; Nobunaga simply hugged her, telling her that everything was fine.
"This cannot stand as it is; let's return to our dorms." Kanetsugu suddenly said, getting everyone's attention.
"Huh? Why?" Ruby asked, showing not only her confusion, but everyone's.
"As sisters of battle, you can't allow these differences to tear your trust apart. You must discuss this, in orderly fashion, until both of you come to a common understanding; I'll serve as mediator, Mitsuhide and Nobunaga will be your seconds, the rest will be the witnesses." Kanetsugu explained, and everyone agreed; both girls saw this as a good opportunity to change the other. It was hare that they parted ways with Penny, and in comfortable silence they departed to the academy; Ranmaru secretly hoped that the incoming argument could be settled by sunset…
Back the team RWBY's dorm… quite late in the night…
Their argument has been escalating tremendously, to the point that it was almost a miracle that there has not been any physical aggression; Blake was defending all what was faunus related, including the existence of the White Fang, while Weiss, after a comic series of chops in the head by Mitsuhide's hand, settled for attacking only the White Fang and their extreme methods… Ruby, Yang and Ranmaru guessed that without the guys this could have gone much worse…
"Do you understand that you are defending an organization that hates humanity, don't you? The faunus of the White Fang are pure evil!" Weiss exclaimed, showing a hatred toward said organization that was actually her own.
"There is no such a thing as pure evil!" Blake shouted in frustration; Mitsuhide could not resist the urge of looking directly at Ranmaru as Blake said those words… obviously she didn't know who she was dating, and who served her boyfriend…
"Why do you think they hate humanity so much? It's because of people like Cardin, people like you, who force them to take such drastic measures!" Blake said with what sounded like pain mixed with hate.
"People like me?!" Weiss shouted, struck by those words.
"You are discriminatory!" Blake's voice now sounded pained; Weiss didn't need another chop in the head to understand now…
"I… I'm sorry… I know I have not been a nice person to faunus in general, I know that I'm far from approachable for faunus… but before you continue to think that I am like that good for nothing bully, I'll have you know that I'm a victim…" Weiss then began to explain her troubled childhood, how her family was a target of violence and assassination attempts, how friends, and boys she actually liked disappeared overnight, how her father threw all his frustration on her… Mitsuhide placed a hand on her shoulder as a show of support, thing that gave her the strength to finish her tirade.
"I may have wronged some faunus, but I'm not going to change my mind about the White Fang; I could forgive their thievery, but the murders? The look of terror on my sister's face every time I took a minute longer to answer a call? That my mother had a heart attack when she answered an anonymous call telling her that I was going to be sent back to her in little pieces? No, I will never forgive them… my father may be a racist, but I'm going to continue his crusade against the White Fang out of justice." Weiss firmly declared; Blake looked closer to tears, she had lied to herself to believe that many of the deaths had been accidents, or the work of an independent faunus; hearing the other side of the truth was hard, but while she could no longer defend the cause of the White Fang, at least she'll do the right thing, and let Weiss understand everyone was responsible.
"I'm sorry that you have suffered so much, but if we hadn't been pushed around that much, especially by your family, we wouldn't have resorted to such horrible deeds." Blake explained with a heavy heart… then she noticed that she had said too much…
"Wait what?" Ruby was the first to ask, but by Weiss look of horror, not the first to notice.
"You…" Weiss couldn't find words… she felt betrayed, cheated, angry, sad and guilty; all at the same time.
Blake was frozen, terrified, she felt like a defenseless lamb before a pack of wolves; she had said too much, not only revealing her nature as faunus, but her past with a terrorist organization, thing that she had kept hidden even from Nobunaga, especially from him. Slowly, she turned around to face the visionary, fully expecting to see horror, hatred and rejection; instead he hugged her, strongly, as if trying to stop her from running away…
"Didn't we promise to stay together to the very end, whatever it may be?" Nobunaga asked in a tender voice, although it did very little to calm the faunus girl.
"It is time, Blake; show them, and let this friendship fly or crash down, knowing that whatever the result may be, I'm still by your side." Nobunaga commanded, and Blake saw how the rest of her team looked at her intently; slowly, but surely, she reached for her bow, and after pulling one of the ends, she revealed her cat ears… the first to react was Ruby.
"THAT IS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! Can I touch them?!" Ruby asked as she was already all over Blake, leaving the cat girl confused at that reaction… it was the second time a human seemed so attracted to her ears after all.
"Whoa! Calm down sis, I don't think you want to make mister dark lord here jealous." Yang said in a playful tone, but actually she meant it; the face of the visionary when the monkey faunus winked at Blake was positively murderous…
"A faunus… and a member of the White Fang?!" Weiss almost screamed in rage, thankfully Mitsuhide was there to hold her.
"Hear her first, judge later." Mitsuhide's suggestion almost fell on deaf ears, only the knowledge that it has been almost a full semester of sleeping in the same room without incident convinced the heiress that there was something else.
"Ex-member, actually. I could never take the life of another person, and when I was forced to commit such act… I fled. Weiss, I know that not taking an active role in those acts hardly makes me innocent, but…" Blake explained as she tried to reach for Weiss, but the heiress slapped her hand away, leaving an extremely cold sensation on her skin.
"I… need solace; away from you. Either you leave, or I will; for I won't be able to sleep anywhere near you… tonight. Until I can… think things over… I don't want to see you." Weiss said with as much self-restraint as she could… she still sounded as if about to try to attack Blake.
"But Weiss!" Ruby was about to protest, to try to keep the team together, but the choice was already taken.
"Fair enough. Blake will sleep with me tonight, so you can rest assured she won't be here with you; Kanetsugu can stay, as I'm sure you could use some spiritual advice." Nobunaga quickly arranged things, surprising everyone.
"I'm not sure it is acceptable for me to stay the night in a room full of fair ladies…" Kanetsugu stated with worry, fearing for the reputations of the members of team RWBY.
"Don't worry; if no one complains about the two couples living unsupervised in front of our dorms, no one will say anything about a monk helping some pure girls to sleep at ease." Ranmaru stated, somewhat alleviating the worries of the battle monk, although Yang had to resist the urge to snort; there may not be complains about it, but there sure were rumors about what happened in team JNPR's room at night.
Later, at the heroes fountain…
Everything had gone out of control… and yet it wasn't as bad as she thought it would go. Blake found acceptance in Ruby and Yang, she found that Nobunaga's love held true, even when she admitted the truth, even when she uncovered that she was undeserving of such love; Ranmaru didn't change at all, he was still her faithful servant, even if she didn't want such a thing, and Kanetsugu was simply Kanetsugu, it was only logical for him to forgive her sins, and show friendship and fraternal love; Mitsuhide was obviously on Weiss side, even if said girl couldn't decide her standing about this new… issue.
"What would have happened without you, Nobu?" Blake muttered to herself while looking at the visionary, who was struggling with a vending machine to get her favorite beverage, just about a dozen feet away, close enough to not feel separated. At his request, she didn't put the bow back on, thing that her cat ears were thankful for, she was more thankful for the fact that all the students were asleep, so at least her faunus nature would remain hidden a little longer, even if it was only until morning…
"I knew you'll look better without that bow." The sudden voice had her on guard immediately, tracking the source was easy, for the guy was not trying to hide… it was the monkey faunus from the docks.
"And who you might be?" Blake asked, not only wary, but almost hostile; he had the smell of someone interested in a romantic relationship, she wondered why he couldn't tell that she was not free, and if possible, will never be again… then she remembered that Nobunaga is human, and as such, he had not impressed his scent on her by mere touch and interaction.
"Sun Wukong, at your service. But more importantly, what is your name, and why are you here, crying?" Sun asked with real concern, while closing the distance. It was a normal thing, for the faunus, a way to show interest, and then wait for a response of the other person, it was all instinct, with no harm intended… that's why he found it weird when she gave a step back instead of taking a second to notice his scent, and of course, Nobunaga not knowing about this kind of interactions, took it the wrong way.
"Blake!" Nobunaga called as he tried to reach for her; then something happened, from his extended hand a mass of darkness, different from what he uses to attack, emerged; it raced toward Blake with unavoidable speed, engulfing her instantly, then the mass of darkness returned to him, placing a startled and admittedly disoriented Blake Belladonna on his arms. Nobunaga made an excellent job at masking his surprise.
"What the fuck?!" Sun could not hide his surprise, much less the sense of dread that he got from the murderous eyes from the visionary.
"Are you ok?" Nobunaga asked to a now recovered Blake, that move had her heart racing; the visionary had discovered his semblance to protect her…
"Yes… well, now I am." Blake faintly replied, she was going to make sure that this misunderstanding never repeated again, by being soaked on his scent, by any means necessary.
"Good. And you; what gives you the right to assault my future wife?!" Nobunaga acknowledged that cat girl with a reassuring smile, and then pointed his sword to the monkey boy; Blake would make sure to get his scent, permanently impressed on her, tonight.
"Whoa! Hey! Calm down buddy. I wasn't aware she was already… wait a minute; you are human! Are you even aware she is a faunus?" Sun asked in alarm, and a little bit of hope, although the last one was quickly shot down.
"Of course I know! And if you plan to use that as an excuse to separate us…" Nobunaga replied, leaving the promise of death should he tried something else, promise accentuated by the action of covering the edge of his sword with darkness, the humming sound already making Sun sweat.
"Hey! I'm not racist! It just took me by surprise, ok? Now don't tell me I can't be worried for a fellow faunus." Sun replied, trying to diffuse the dangerous situation he was in; while he didn't fear for his life, he knew that this kind of misunderstanding could lead his team to be kicked out of the festival.
"The problems I have are something personal, and I don't require any more assistance than what I can find in the arms of my future husband. The only thing you could do for me, is not telling anyone else that I'm a faunus." Blake stated, making sure to return that delightful title that Nobunaga used on her.
"Why not?" Sun asked in confusion… then he felt something extremely sharp between his legs.
"Because my lady says so." Ranmaru said, while holding his nodachi between Sun's legs, ready to cut him in half.
"YIKES!" Sun knew he had tried a move on the wrong girl…
Magnus: I do not agree with the end of season 3, and I'm murdering the bad guys in extremely horrible ways as retaliation.
