Hello everybody :D Alpha's back and howling XD Bwahahaha :D the reason why I haven't updated the story is because of my job -3- night shift really drains my energy faster than I have been playing games :3 anyways...
knight7572: Yep :3 I have to agree on that one... but shouldn't we kill her slowly but surely and we will be satisfied to hear her cries of pain. Then if she dies, re spawn and repeat XD
Gravenimage: Hello :3 and thanks for reviewing XD you saw a hole on that one so yeah, I owe an explaination
1.) Yep, Grimms are mindless, soulless beasts but Grimms on this story have basic animal instincts.
2.) Uh... nope, Nagi is not a bumblebee fan. The only fanfic that she had read with bumblebee was The Snow Fox's Struggle by Shadow Nightblade. She is a Tauradonna (AdamxBlake) fan... and you could just imagine how devastated she was when that ship sank XD For now, you could compare her with Blake's father. (Looks behind and see them shaking hands) Aaaaannnnddd looks like that they will get along just fine XD
Anyways... this just popped out on my head so yeah, sorry about if there are any mistakes :3 thank you for reading, you guys are awesome
Sorry for this short chapter :3 please excuse me as I howl in pain because of my muscle cramps ;.;
-Alpha out
In a secluded forest, somewhere on the cold borders at the edge of Atlas lay an old castle. It was black in color, contrasting with its snowy white surrounding. Two figures walked in silence towards the massive gate that stood in front of the castle with walls to protect its surroundings. An armored soldier suddenly popped out of nowhere from behind the walls
"State your name and your purpose"
One of the figures removed the hood of the cloak. It revealed to be no other than Cinder Fall
"At ease soldier" She waved her hand dismissively "We are summoned by Hades"
"Apologies" The soldier bowed and pressed something on his scroll
The massive gate opened and they walked in. Once they are in front of the castle, the double doors of the castle opened and continued to walk quietly until they reached the main hall. Various types of machines and technology stood in front of them with various scientists and soldiers that came from both White Fang and Kuma were working with the machines. Others just stood guard near the doors, and as the two passed by snapped in attention
"You two just made it in time" A woman with elephant tusks and a Grimm mask greeted them "Master is expecting you in the office"
The two grunted as the lady left. As they opened the door at his office, a glare from the lone occupant of the dark office greeted them
"Tell me" his tone colder than the coldest ice that sent shivers down their spine "Why did you fail this time?"
"It's because the mutt was much stronger than before" Roman spat
"What do you mean by that? Catching a single upgraded mutt was easier than catching a pack. Am I right Cinder?"
"He didn't mean to disrespect you" She glared at Roman "To clarify, it seems that Hachiko's power is growing with each day. Instead of the old 'prince armor' that he had during our last encounter, he now adorns a 'king's armor' and his aura level had tripled since the last time that we had encountered him"
"I see" he stood up "Then that would be a great problem"
He walked to the huge window and the light of the moon illuminated him. He adored a black cape that had two golden buttons and a golden chain to hold it in place, his black general's uniform was in pristine condition, his face was hidden by the full face mask in the shape of a goat's skull. His blood red eyes glared as he looked back at them
"Do something about it or I'll have to do it myself. Am I clear?"
"Yes sir"
"You two are dismissed"
They left the room in a hurry and quietly closed the door. He inhaled deep before gritting his teeth
"Matilda!"
The woman earlier stumbled as she quickly made her way towards his desk
"Y-Y-Yes Master?"
"Call Team Alpha… have them assemble at my office after 15 minutes"
"Y-Y-Yes Sir"
She run as fast as her legs could carry her. He sighed as he looked outside
"Soon"
It was a fine day in Beacon Academy as Hachiko walked through the Emerald forest. Although he stopped when he smelled it, there is something coming and both of them knew it
"It's not even the worse" Alpha chuckled from inside him "Just to let you know"
He nodded and looked at the city of Vale from the edge of a cliff. He enjoyed his morning runs but today was an exception. He sighed as he dropped on all four and ran towards the direction of Beacon Academy
"Better to be prepared for it then… I'm not going to let some asshole to break a promise that I made"
He ran in a wolfish manner that he was like a ghost hovering above the ground. His every step was fast and silent that even the birds never noticed his presence
"You're learning to cuss huh?" Alpha chuckled in amusement
"And suddenly you're talkative" he rolled his eyes
His thoughts began to turn to Team RWBY. Over the past few days, they have made progress along with the help of Team JNPR. He enjoyed their company even though a certain heiress would either be cold with him or ignored his presence
"What have I done to her anyway?" he mumbled as he jumped over a high bark that stood in his way
Yang looked over the classroom where Weiss was in. She and Ruby talked about it last night, about how Weiss and Hachiko need to talk with each other although Weiss's cold attitude toward him was anything but accompanying. Ruby said that it will be bad, although she said that it will be 'pawsome'
"There he comes"
Yang looked at her target. He was quick to react to dodge her tackle and to hold her hand before she collided with the floor
"Whoa! Nice catch Wolfy" She grinned
Without a second thought, she threw him to the classroom. He already knew what she will be doing but he didn't expect to see Weiss standing in front of him. Luckily, he stopped in time before he bumped to Weiss
"You two need to talk"
Yang slammed the door shut and locked it from the outside. Red blindfold meets icy blue eyes before Weiss reacts
"Let me out of here XIAO LONG!" She pounded the door as hard as she can
"NOT UNTIL THE TWO OF YOU TALKED!" Yang shouted from the other side
Hachiko drew a sharp breath as he looked back. From the looks of it, the heiress don't want to talk to him
"Look, I know that you don't want to talk to me okay" he said in a defeated tone "But I wanna know why you are this cold to me. What have I done wrong?"
"Your very presence alone is enough" She said sharply that Yang muttered an 'ouch' from the other side
"Is it because of the fake records that you read?" he took a step closer to her "Is it because of that night?"
Every advance on his part was a retreat from the heiress. She then bumped against the teacher's desk while Hachiko was now an inch closer to her
"Or is it because" she averted her gaze "I made you remember someone from your past?"
She took a sharp breath and looked at him with wide eyes. He frowned as he took a step back and his ears and tail drooped in sadness
"I didn't mean to intimidate you with my presence… I'm sorry but" he looked at her sincerely "You are one of the people that I trust, and I look at you as my friend… even though our feelings aren't mutual. I'm here to help you with the best that I can so if my presence alone is enough to make you feel this way, then I would distance myself if that is enough"
Black rose petals began to appear and encircle his form. He looked at her one last time before mumbling something
"Keep moving forward Weiss"
Weiss's eyes were wide as saucers as she looked at the slowly disappearing rose petals before a lone tear escaped her eye which confirmed that his guess was true
"Dolt" She wiped it away "Didn't even let me talk"
Yang opened the door only to be almost get knocked off by a speeding heiress. She took off to a random direction leaving a chuckling Yang
"Well, that was a thing"
Ruby was walking down the hall, with drawing materials secured in her arms. She was about to enter their dorm when a white blur went past her, knocking her off her feet
"Oww!" She looked at Weiss who was now beside her "Weiss? What is wrong with you? Running off in random directions won't help you, you know?"
"I'm looking for Hachiko"
"Huh?" She then looked at her as if she's crazy "Did you caught a fever or something?"
"I don't… I, it's"
"It's okay Weiss, just don't try to be cold to him okay?"
"It just dawned on me"
She smiled as Weiss eyes darted back and forth, unsure what to do
"What would you do if you meet him?"
"I" she hung her head low "I want to say I'm sorry… I shouldn't let my past, my coldness get the best of me"
"Remember Weiss, he may seem not like it but he is forgiving" She smiled "He is in the music room if you want to know"
"Thank you"
She rushed at the music room as fast as she can. 'How did he guessed it? How?'
He looked at the window with a frustrated sigh. He wanted to rip anything that comes in his line of sight but he knew it wouldn't help him… Also, Alpha's snickering didn't help him feel at ease either
"Ugh!"
He let his hands drop to his sides. He took a deep breath and was about to exit the room when his eyes caught the black and pristine color of the piano on the corner
"Sure brings old memories"
He caressed the top of the piano before sitting on the lone chair. He then lifted the covers that hid the piano keys underneath
"Let's see if I could still recall that song"
Weiss hurried her pace to the music room. Having exhausted herself for running in random directions, she opted to walk instead. Her head perked up when the sound of piano being played reached her ears
"Princess, I'll tell you something
You are not the loneliest of all"
As the husky voice reached her ears, she looked inside to see Hachiko picking up the pace of the tone into a faster one
"Princess, I'll tell you something
You are not the loneliest of all
Fear of what's inside you
Face it or your heart will be turned to stone"
Weiss looked on as his hands flowed fluidly at the rapid beat. She knew the tune of the song but he is singing a different lyrics. She remembered it from someone in her past… it was named as the mirror's answer
"Princess Princes, I'll tell you something
I'll save you from the things you see
But you can't keep it from the world
Just open your heart and you will see
Princess Princess, open your heart
And watch as the truth unfolds"
Weiss watch as Hachiko breaths in before smiling
"You're the happiest… of all"
She watched as he sighed sadly as he concluded the song. He was about to stand up when he noticed her outside
"Oh uh… hey uh Weiss" his ears dropped "I guess I'll uh"
"Can I talk to you… for a moment?"
He paused before tilting his head. He can sense the sincerity in her voice that made him sigh for the nth time of the day
"Sure…" he smiled "Why not"
