Hello everyone! Welcome to chapter 13! Thank you again for the support your giving this story and hope you continue to enjoy reading. :)

Pyrrha's Pov- According to Max the school year has almost ended. There were only a few weeks left. I was amazed how much time flew by. It feel's just like yesterday where I died at the top of Beacon Tower and ended up here. Thing's have been relatively calm these past few months. Nothing new has changed. Except when Brooke and Warren recently announced they were a couple. I was happy for them.

Victoria has been more quiet and less snobby than usual. I don't know what happened but she hasn't tried to provoke anyone. And she doesn't go out of her way to harass or bully people. I remember one day she came out of Kate's room. When I asked Kate about it she just said that Victoria and her were just talking. That she just had some things to get off her chest. Which I could understand, her father is. Excuse my language. A bastard.

I've also been getting this weird feeling like i'm being watched. I never see anything bizarre but the feeling just wouldn't go away. Call it a huntress intuition. Because of that I've been kind of edgy. I didn't tell Max this. She was finally starting to move on from her grief over Chloe. I didn't want her worrying over something that I might just be imagining.

Speaking of Max. We have gotten a lot closer these past few months. I also know for a fact that she has a little crush on me. It's so cute when she tries to hide it. I always get into a giggle fit when she blushes from when she's trying to do something romantic but always tells me it's 'friendly.'

Today was my day off and it was a Sunday so me and Max decided to have the day to ourselves. I was sitting under a tree out in the girls dorm courtyard. I had my eyes closed enjoying the gentle spring breeze and the sound of birds. That was one thing I loved about this small town. It was so peaceful.

"I said leave me alone!"

Well it was. I opened my eyes and turned to the source of the noise. By the bench on the other side of the small courtyard I saw Juliet standing in front of Dana protectively. In front of her I saw Logan. Which I learned was Dana's ex.

"Come on baby. We had fun together remember?" He flirted which made my blood boil.

Juliet glared at him. "Leave her alone. Haven't you done enough to her asshole?"

He smirked back and said. "Oh I've done plenty to her. The way she screamed my name in my dorm room. Has she done that for you dyke?"

Dana sneered and said. "Plenty! And unlike with you I didn't have to fake it!"

That seemed to hurt his ego. "What did you say to me you whore!?"

He stepped forward and I was immediately up on my feet. Juliet pushed him. "I said stay away from her!"

He grabbed her shoulders and shoved her onto the ground. "Touch me again you fucking cunt I dare you!"

I was about to run over and break his nose again but what happened next baffled me.

"Juliet!" Dana screamed as tears ran down her face. She knelt down next to her lover and tried helping her up. Logan approached them and when Dana looked back up at him I could have sworn for a split second her eyes turned to a purplish color and glowed a bit. "Stay away from her!" And the next thing I knew Logan was pushed onto the ground. But he skidded across the ground for about five feet before he stopped. He skidded across some of the sidewalk and scraped his arm which caused it to bleed.

I wasn't sure if my eyes were playing tricks on me. But for a second I thought I saw a faint outline of a long purple like energy coming off from Dana's back and then disappeared.

Logan quickly got back up in a panic holding his bleeding arm. "Your fucking crazy!" Then ran out past me and out towards the parking lot like it was the end of the world.

I quickly ran over to my two friends. "You two ok?"

Dana wiped some tears from her eyes before nodding. "Yeah i am. Juliet?"

Juliet slowly sat up with a groan. "I think I just twisted my ankle. But other than that. I'm fine."

I sighed in relief. "That's good. I was just about to come over here and help. But Dana seemed to have it all under control."

Dana blushed a bit. "Yeah. Sorry."

Juliet put a hand behind her head and pulled her down for a quick kiss. "Don't be. You were so badass. You shoved him pretty far and hard. Didn't know you had that kind of strength babe."

Dana chuckled. "Probably just adrenaline."

I silently agreed. What I faintly saw must have been my mind playing tricks on me. Maybe it's because I haven't had any real combat since the day I arrived in this world. I was growing up and training to be a huntress. My body and mind are still trying to get used to the peaceful life i'm accommodating too. "Well. I'm just happy that your both ok."

"Thank's Pyrrha I...What the fuck is that?!" Juliet yelled and pointed towards the entrance.

Me and Dana followed where she was pointing at. I blinked a few times. Making sure I was seeing things right. Victoria causally walked out of the dorms with a few books in her arms. Nothing unusual there. But it's what she was wearing that was unusual. She was wearing a sleeveless white crop top and very tight very short light blue short shorts and sandals.

"And she calls us sluts!? She looks like she's ready to start working the street corner." Juliet complained.

"I did over hear a conversation from Courtney and Taylor that she has been feeling very warmish lately. Like no matter what she did she can't seem to cool off." Dana explained while helping Juliet up.

That was weird. "I hope she's feeling alright." I may not like her. But I don't hate her to the point that I hope something bad happens to her. She reminded me alot of Weiss. And just like my old friend Victoria is slowly but surly turning a new leaf. And instead of Ruby it's Kate doing it.

"Same...Ouch. Fuck." Juliet cursed as she tried to stand on her foot.

"Need help?" I asked with concern.

Dana put Juliet's arm around her shoulders to help her balance. "It's ok. We'll make it. Thank's though."

"It's no problem. We're friends right?" I said with a smile.

"Very true." Juliet replied. "Dana said you have a date with Max today so we'll get out of your hair." She teased as Both girls shared a small laugh.

I blushed a bit but kept my smile up. "It's a date. But nothing romantic."

Dana smirked and rolled her eyes. "Mhmm. Whatever you say. See you later Pyrrha."

"Bye." I watched them hobble back towards the dorms. When they were gone I sighed and rubbed my temple. "Something weird is going on with my new friends. Not sure what but I don't like it."

"Hey Pyrrha. You alright?"

I opened my eyes to see Max walking towards me. "Yeah. Just a slight headache is all."

She stopped in front of me and frowned. "You want to cancel today's plan's then?"

I smiled and shook my head. "No no. I'm fine really."

She smiled back. "Alright. I just wanted to be sure." She then shyly grabbed my hand and lead us out towards the schoolyard.

I couldn't help but chuckle at her cuteness. "You never did say where we we were going Max."

She didn't respond till we stopped at a bus stop. "It's a bit way's out but I think you'll like it."

I gave her hand a light reassuring squeeze. "I'm sure I will"

After taking a bus to the outskirts of town Max lead us towards a set of train tracks and followed it down. "Max we've been walking a while. Where are we going?"

"You'll see soon. We're almost there." She replied as I kept up with her pace.

I sighed but didn't voice my thoughts. What was out here that Max wanted to show me so badly? After about another fifteen minutes Max stopped making me stop. She turned around and grabbed both of my hands. "Pyrrha...Nobody else knows about what i'm about to show you. I haven't been here myself since...Chloe." I let one of our hands go and raised in to her cheek and wiped a tear away from her cheek. Max closed her yes and leaned into my touch. "I want to share this place with you. I'm sure Chloe wouldn't mind. You were friends after all."

My heart swelled. Max was going to trust me with something so important. "Thank you Max. I'd be honored."

After gathering her bearings she smiled and tugged on my hand leading me around the corner. After walking around the treeline we stopped and I looked around in awe. "Is this a..Junkyard?" It looked like one and didn't seem to spectacle. But there was certain...Air about the place. Like a lot of happy memories are surrounding this place.

"Yeah. I have a lot of good memories here...Some...Very very bad. But most of it was good." Her hand tightly squeezed mine and trembled a bit.

I smiled trying to erase her painful memories away. "Well i'm very curious to see what's here."

It worked somewhat. Max chuckled a bit and pulled me along. "Let me show you around then.

We spent a couple hours slowly making our way around the Junkyard. Max shared a few stories. A few crazy stories of what she and Chloe did her stealing a gun and shooting bottles seemed like something she would do. At least it was a hand gun and not the rocket launcher she has on her blade back in my world. And since we were alone I showed Max a bit more of my semblance. She was amazed that I was able to lift cars with ease. Compared to the Beacon's tower giant clock gears it was child's play.

After that Max lead me to a small shack. "This was Chloe's...Well it was like a second home." We walked in and I have to admit. It seemed nice given where we were. "Chloe spent a lot of time here, her and a friend of her's Rachel Amber."

My body froze hearing that name. Rachel Amber? The same one that was teamed up with Cinder? "Chloe did say she was an old friend. She came from this world to? Wow...What are the odds? But...Rachel was helping Cinder when they attacked Beacon...I still wish I knew what happened." I decided not to tell Max about this. We were having a good time right now. I didn't want to make her feel down again.

"You ok?" Max asked. Breaking me from my trance.

I slightly shook my head and smiled. "Yes. Sorry. I was thinking about something."

Max looked unsure but dropped it. "Well. It's not much but I think it's homey."

I nodded in agreement. "I think iy is as well." I looked over to a wall and saw some writing.

Chloe was here

Rachel was here

"They were really close..."

"Hey Pyrrha?"

I was once again broken from my thoughts and turned to Max. "Yes Max?"

She fidgeted where she stood. Avoiding eye contact. "I...Wanted to. Ask you something...And I thought doing it here would give me a bit of strength to ask...Like Chloe is here supporting me...You know?"

I gave her a reassuring smile and placed both of my hands on her shoulders. "I know what you mean. And that's perfectly fine. What is it you want to ask?"

She took a deep breath and said. "Well...The senior dance is...Next weekend and..I was wondering if...You wanted to..Go with me?...AS FRIENDS OF COURSE!" She yelled that last part with a deep blush on her face.

I held back a laugh at how cute she was being. This reminded me of when Jaune asked me out to the Beacon dance. "That was such a fun night...And a very touching memorial one as well."

"Pyrrha?"

I blinked my thoughts away and saw that Max had a look of fear and worry. Probably thinking that I was going to reject her. "I'd love to Max."

Her smile came back. "That's great! Umm...I mean. Great. Yeah uh...Oh dog."

This time I did laugh.

Non Pov- Reaper was sitting in a tree. Her visor was blinking and acting as her binoculars. "The main Target and Caulfield are alone at a secluded location. Should I go in?" She whispered into her helmets earpiece.

Nikolai was sitting in a tinted windowed car. The car was parked right outside the front of the school. On the steps were Kate and Stella talking. "Negative. As much as it pain's me to say. We have to wait a little bit longer. We need an opportunity to get them all at once. When they are most vulnerable."

"When is that?"Reaper asked over his ear piece.

He looked down at a small flier in his hand. "Soon. Very soon."

The flier read. Black Well Senior dance this weekend!
