"You think Miss Hatori could be the Lost Spring maiden, It's possible considering I noticed no Dust manipulation or Semblanced used during Miss and Mister Hatori's demonstration." I replied remembering Miss Hatori's magic attacks
"But if she could be The Lost Spring Maiden, Then what is Ruth sir? You do remember Miss Rose mentioning his ability to turn into a giant dog." She reminded me
"If you think I had anything to do with that like I did with the Brawen twins then no I don't recall giving anyone else the ability to change their shape." I replied
"Well I better go now Ozpin my class is about to start farewell." She said before she left me alone with my unfinished coffee mug
Now
:With Summer:
It's been at least a few hour after I got off the call with Ozpin to say the least I was disappointed and saddened by the fact that I could find Chise's father and beat him to a pulp or just find Chise and Ruth's family. Anyways it was already dark and almost everyone was asleep except for Chise since there was a light in her room
'Probably still scared of the Storm.' I thought to myself remembering it was still raining hard, Then I went inside and Saw Chise hiding behind her blanket peeking over to look at me with fearful eyes, I glanced at the chair next to the bed and noticed Ruth sleeping there with his mouth open.
"Are you ok Chise?" I asked her even though I knew she was not ok since she looked like a creep was under her bed
"I'm f-fine S-Sum-mer" she replied before she screamed as another boom of a lighting bolt was heard outside and she tucked behind her blanket
"Poor baby, don't worry Summer is here." I told her as I cuddled her as she was giggling before yawning
"Ok Chise it's bedtime for you." I told her but she shook her head
"I'm still scared tho…" she told me shyly
I smiled at her innocence and I asked her
"Would you like to hear a lullaby?" she nodded before getting up
"Where are you going Chise I thought you wanted a lullaby?" I asked her
"Do you know where I can get some paper and a pencil?" she asked me
"I'll go get them for you wait in your bed." I told her thinking maybe she wanted to draw something before hearing a lullaby
A few minutes later
"Here you go Chise." Handing her the paper and pencil
"Thank you." she said before she starting writing something on the paper, after she was done she handed me the paper which had a song written in it and Chise asked
"Summer can you sing this to me please?" she asked me as she tucked herself in the bed
I quickly read the song lyrics that Chise wrote and smiled at the words then began
"Count to one, count to two, where do flowers grow? Underneath the window where children softly doze The moon shining brightly makes every petal glow Count to three, count to four, where do flowers bloom? Resting upon the mirror frame in mamma's room, A sweet little bud of a beautiful flower of blue Let us count them all, let us count them all, All the lovely flowers blooming, let us count them all! Count to seven, count to eight, as we fall asleep Every child is dreaming of fragrant flowers sweet And momma makes a bouquet for you to keep" I sang when I finished I looked over to Chise and saw her already asleep with a smile in her face
"Goodnight Chis." I told her as I gave a her a kiss on her forehead and went out
When I headed out the door I noticed the door to Ruby's room was ajar and I quietly went inside, as I entered the room I noticed that Ruby's room was dark but I saw her and Yang under her blanket doing something.
As I got closer I heard the sounds of a video game, at first I thought I would turn on the lights and call them out but I decided on something else
First I crouched below so that they wouldn't see me if they looked behind and make growling sounds, which caused my girls to immediately stop their game and look behind
"Y-yang wh-hat was that?" Ruby asked her older sister
"Don't know Rubes going to go turn on the lights and check." Yang replied
"Wait Yang maybe it's the creep under the bed like mommy always tells us!" Ruby said
"Pssh.. That's just a story that mom likes to tell us so that we don't get out of bed." Yang replied before I let out a roar which scared both of the girls, Silently giggling I slowly crawled over to the light switch and turned on the light and stood up quickly to make it seem like I just came in
"MOMMY!" she cried as she ran into my arms
"shh.. Chise it's ok and also please lower your voice you might wake up your Chise, Ruth and your father." I told her to which she nodded and wiped her tears
"Mom where did the creep go? Did you see it pass by or something?" Yang asked with her arms raised in a defensive position to which I let out a laugh which confused her
"Mom why are you laughing? There could be a Grimm around here!" she exclaimed to which I laughed harder
"I'm sorry Yang." I explained after my laughing "It was me who made the roar and the growls." I explained to her which she gave me an angry look
"Mom why! Me and Ruby were in an intense game of Huntsme-oops." She explained before she realized that she told me that they were playing
"So you were playing eh when it's time for bedtime?" I asked her to which she and ruby gave a frightened nod
"Well it's TIME FOR SUPER MOM TO ATTACK RAAAA" I exclaimed as a tackled hugged both of them, then we all ended up laughing and giggling on the floor when I noticed Tai with a tired look on his face
"Summer, Why are you and the kids on the floor and not sleeping?" he asked in a sleepy tone before leaning against the door and fell asleep which resulted him falling to the floor with a loud thud
"Oh, sorry girls it's really time for you two to go to bed." I told them then Ruby asked
"But Mommy what about daddy will you just leave him here?" to which I shook my head
"Just because your dad is bigger than me doesn't mean that I can't lift him up!" I told her before ushering her to her bed and told Yang to go to her room and sleep
'Now what to do with Tai?' I pondered before I noticed Ruth awake and looking at Tai
"Need help with him?" Ruth asked me quietly
"No Thank you I got this, besides you should be sleeping right now." I told him as I struggled to lift up tai's leg
Ruth just sighed before lifting up Tai's entire upper body then I proceeded to lift his lower half then me and Ruth carried My Husband all the way to my and tai's room and we placed him on the bed
"Thank you Ruth." I said to him with a smile, he nodded then left me and a sleeping taiyang in the room, then I proceeded to slowly crawl into Taiyang's arms then fell asleep on his chest.
The next day
"Okay you guys what do you think of a family picnic?" I asked everyone who was already awake and fresh
"I think that's a great idea." Taiyang said as he chewed on a pancake "I'll call Qrow to see if he wants to join us."
"Yeah that would be awesome!" Yang and Ruby exclaimed as they finished their orange juice
Chise and Ruth looked at each other before Ruth nodded and Chise asked me "Can we join you?" she asked shyly
"What kind of question is that? Of course you can! After all you both are already part of our family." I told them
"Know before we head out I want you all to grab anything you want to bring to the picnic also let me know what food do you want me to make so that I can prepare it and bring it to the picnic." I told everyone
I looked at Ruby who looked like she wanted to burst out of her seat but I said to her "Ruby you don't need to tell me." I told her then she at first pouted before realizing that I already knew that she wanted me to make my famous cookies for the picnic
"How about some Ham and Cheese sandwichs, Juice and hotdogs?" Tai asked me to which I blew him a raspberry but agreed then I asked Ruth and Chise what they wanted me to make and Chise asked me if I could make a muffin while Ruth asked for a steak which earned him an elbow from Chise but I told them it was fine then proceeded to prepare everything while everyone got up and went to their rooms to get ready
A few minutes later
"Okay everyone we're here!" I exclaimed after we all reached the area where we were going to have the picnic it had an open field with trees surrounding us but there were flowers and butterflies around the area and the place wasn't really far from home
"Umm Honey how did you know about this place? Taiyang asked as he placed the picnic blanket on the ground
"Huh? Oh I checked my scroll early did morning to see if there was a nearby place that was perfect for a picnic thankfully I was able to find a map of patch and found the perfect spot which was here!" I told him
He nodded then said "Now everyone PICk a spot or someone else will NIC it from you." he said jokingly but before someone could have booed him for his terrible pun Yang replied
"Dad was that joke made of paper? Because it was Tearrible!" she and Tai exclaimed before Yang giggled while Tai gave a small chuckle when around looked around them Tai saw Ruth give him the death stare while Chise just shook her head in a 'Why,Why?' gesture while Ruby just groaned in annoyance and said "BOOOO!" before sitting down picking her spot
Once everyone picked their spot and sat down Taiyang told them to grab a plate and dig in but before they could reach the picnic basket I shook my head and told them
"Before we start eating the food you guys why not a simple brawl? After all it's a lovely day for it." I told them before all the kids backed away from the picnic basket and went back to their spots waiting for it to begin while Taiyang just sighed and went back as well
"Ok before we begin let me lay down the rules, First don't hit too hard or else someone might be punished for it, Second No one is allowed to knock anyone out and lastly have fun!" I said before saying "And no Ruby you're not allowed to join you're still young." Ruby protested "But I'm only 3 years away from Yang and Chise mommy!" I told her no again at first she wanted to protest but shrugged it off and proceeded to go towards the picnic basket to get a cookie
"Am I late to the party?" a lazy voice called out
"Qrow! You're here! I didn't think you would come!" I exclaimed in surprise
"Eh, I got some free time so I decided to join y'all" he replied lazily before he approached me and whispered "I would have asked you know who to join us but you know her." I nodded before I asked "Did you at least send a message or something?" he nodded and said "I did but got no reply but I have a feeling that she's here." He said mysteriously while giving a quick glance towards the trees before sitting beside Chise and Ruby at first I wanted to ask how could he tell but I decided to drop it.
"OK everyone who wants to go first?" I asked before Yang raised her fist in the air
"I DO!" she shouted before running to the field then prepared herself
"Ok who wants to dussel with her?" I asked again and Tai raised his hand I looked at him then he replied before saying "Dad's gotta train his Sunny little dragon how to fight so that she can be on top in Signal." I understood since I wanted both of my daughters to be on top but with Chise I wanted her to be on top with them if she ever wanted to apply.
"Ok Yang are you ready?" he asked her before she flashed him a wide grin
"You bet I'm ready to start this with a Yang!" she exclaimed before Tai replied saying "OH I know you're all sunny about it I hope you don't DRAGON me." before both Ruby and Chise booed and Ruth asked them
"Is this a simple brawl or a pun battle?" Qrow chuckled at that then drank from his flask
Before long Tai had Yang in the ground she squirmed and he said "You don't just win a fight with only fighting skills or brute strength you win them with both Strength and mind." Yang nodded and wiped herself before she and Tai went back to sit down
"Ok whose next?" I asked before Qrow raised his hand then said "I'll be fightin' Dog breath over there." He replied sounding a little drunk
"Mom why does Uncle Qrow call Ruth Dog breath?" Yang asked
"I don't know Yang and you and I probably don't want to know." I replied casually while silently cursing Qrow for almost letting slip Ruth's "ability"
When I glanced at Ruth I saw her was giving Qrow that said "I'll tear you apart for that comment." While Chise just giggled
"Ok let's get this started." Qrow told Ruth after they got in their stances
"Beat that old man Ruth!" Yang cheered while Qrow gave her a fake wounded look and he looked at Ruby hopefully with a smile
"Yeah you can do it Ruth!" she cheered diminishing Qrows smile
"Seems you got the girls support, you must be quite the ladies man." Earning a loud laugh from Chise and a giggle from the rest of the girls
"I do ok." He replied while giving Chise a pointed look but it made her laugh even harder
"Are you guys gonna fight or what?" Yang asked after she stopped giggling
"Okay okay sheesh." Qrow replied before throwing a punch towards Ruth which was a mistake since Ruth ducked out of the way and groined Qrow in the jewels
"OOF, good one but it will take more than that to take me down." Qrow said standing up Ruth was about to headbutt him but due to Qrows active semblance it missed thus giving Qrow the opening he needed and tackled him in the chest then pinning Ruth down with Ruth's arm positioned at his back
"You done yet kid?" Qrow replied cockily
"Eh not really." Before fading into shadows causing Qrow to fall and Ruth did the same thing Qrow did to him earlier
"Good one kid I'll give ya that one." Qrow said before calling the brawl off and went back to his spot
"Woooo! That was Awesome Ruth was that you're semblance?" Yang asked him which he nodded mutely
"OK that's all everyone you can all dig in" Everyone cheered and dug in but Yang stayed in her spot and looked at me and asked "Mom, why didn't you want to brawl I mean I could still go for another round." I chuckled and rubbed her head saying "I know that Yang but you could tell everyone was hungry besides there are other more fun activities than just fighting right?" before I started tickling her to which she giggled so much
Suddenly Roars could be heard
Then they all stood in a circle as a pack of Ursai surrounded them
"mommy why are the Grimm here?" Ruby asked fearfully while clutching the hem of my skirt
"Don't worry about it Rubes you'll be just fine." I told her as I pulled out her weapon
Then the Grimm began their attack
Qrow was fighting a ursai minor using his weapon Harbinger while Tai kicked and punched another Ursai using his gauntlets (Honestly I have no name for them suggest a name in a review! And the best one will be Tai's weapons name.) and I hacked and slashed at the other Ursai after I was done with the Ursai When I turned my heart almost stopped as I saw that Yang Ruth were protecting chise from a Ursai Major that had attacked Chise resulting in claw marks on her arms
I quickly picked her up while dragging Ruby and Yang with me
"Ruth distract them! I'll get the girls home they'll be fine there." I cried to him which he nodded then tossed the Ursai Major away giving me a wide berth to run with the girls
But before I could get far 2 other Ursai Minors blocked my path and growled at me
The girls began crying while I slowly backed away from the 2 Ursai "Don't worry girls, Mommy's here to protect you." I whispered then I heard Chise muttering something before we all burst in flames
:With Taiyang:
"I have taken care of the big grimm." Ruth reported 'Thank god I thought' as I saw the last of the Ursai Minors disappear
"Great Job Ruth we must hurry the girls could be in-" I said before a bright light surrounded us
When I looked up I saw fire in the shape of a bird that looked at me briefly before before it soared towards the direction house
"Wh-what was that?!" Qrow demanded while running ahead of me
"I do not know but we must hurry!" I replied right behind Qrow with Ruth following behind
When we reached the house I let out a loud gasp as I saw The Fire bird land and out of the bird came Summer, Yang, Ruby and Chise before it disappeared
"Ok did that just happen or am I just drunk again?" Qrow asked me I replied "No I saw it too, Did you see it Ruth?" I asked him he nodded before I turned and saw Chise collapse
"Chise!" Ruth cried before he rushed to her side while me and Qrow rushed to where Summer was staring blankly at the house while the girls were still sniffling at her sides
"What happened Summer?" I demanded at first she looked at me like she couldn't believe she was here before saying
"It was well it was amazing while I was running with the girls we got blocked by 2 Ursai minors." I looked shocked then she said "I couldn't get my weapon since I was carrying Chise, then I heard her say something before we all burst into flames strangely the flames didn't hurt it felt warm, inviting and it felt like I was being reborn again, I felt my arms suddenly feel light then I realized it was Chise's doing without her we wouldn't have made it in one piece." She said
"Ruth do you know what this is?" I asked him but he wasn't there
"I'll ask him later Tai poor guy's little sister is unconscious." Qrow replied
I nodded then brought everyone inside
:3RD POV:
As Taiyang and his family went inside the house a bird was watching them, a Raven to be exact it narrowed it's eyes before it took off
"Hm… that was quite a spectactle" The raven thought as it flew away
Well that's all folks
If you liked it leave a follow, fave or a review
All of those are always appreciated :D
And if you want to know why the Grimm were there
As mentioned Qrow mentioned knowing that Raven was around (Also yay Raven Cameo!) Raven felt a bit of envy while looking at how Summer and Yang interacted while Ruby felt a tad bit jealous that she didn't get to fight also what do you think of Chise's phoenix form? Honestly I planned to reveal it later but I decided to reveal it early but it would only last in a small duration of time (like now and only now.)
Anyways this is Javier heading out and see you in the next chapter of RAMB!
