A/N: I think I may have gone overboard with this, so I decided to let it be. Enjoy.
Chapter 24
Bonding
Whatever Nora did to Ruby that fateful day, has left the team impressed, and horrified about the hyperactive girl. With nearly the day over, Ruby has yet to stir awake, snoring contently as she lay on her bed. Professor Goodwitch sat beside the bed, using her scroll to do preliminary scans over her. Her teammates however, weren't worried one moment- considering Ruby has had far worse experiences than having her aura drained to near fatal levels. Well, mostly. Weiss and Yang were absolutely livid; and teamed up to try and repay...her kindness. What they got instead, was a taste of Nora's new Semblance.
If Nora could absorb electricity and charge herself up for an insane amount of burst power potential, then her added semblance made her even scarier- the ability to defuse any aura-based energies, absorb them to redirect it back, to infuse it, or to mold it into physical form. Weiss was absolutely shocked- this was a theory that the known Hunters of today would argue about- the ability to manipulate others's aura to our will without the aid of an outside source, and yet here stands a very hyperactive girl who had the gall to absorb Yang's explosive aura around her and in turn, created an electrical hammer out of thin air to, promptly and accurately, "smack dat ass" to the wall and knock her unconscious.
Coco and Weiss gave each other a look that could only be understood by people who have the knowledge that the world has awakened...a living thunder monster. Nora, however, was completely oblivious to what had happened, till Pyrrha pointed it out. Nora being ecstatic is a heavy understatement. She was high on energy, mainly cause Yang's aura. She toyed around with her power and summoned multiple hammer-weapon combos she could think off, or possibly come up with- her favorite was a double ended hammer with the heads facing the opposite direction, spinning it around causing more lighting to attract to her to power herself up.
Whatever the case, everyone had calmed(relatively) down- Weiss pried Yang from the wall, pulling hard on her legs. Coco had a look on her face that signaled others to not talk to her- deep in thought. Blake and Velvet tried to clean up the mess Ruby and Nora had made, trying(really hard) to not let themselves become lost in lust- Ruby's sperm is a physical source of their supply of aura to keep themselves sane(and horny), as well as Blake's favorite thing to lick clean, while Velvet's FUC going haywire from just the scent. Pyrrha on the other hand, tried to placate Nora to stop, fearing the worst for her, and most especially Ruby- she had a clear mind on the situation.
"Well, looks like you had a busy day, yet again Ruby." spoke Professor Goodwitch to the unconscious Ruby. As the kind professor scanned her leg, her scroll beeped and gave her a general look on the situation. Ruby's stable, aura is dangerously low, her body showing signs of dehydration and over all, recovery is assured- her hyper regenerative aura matches her semblance of speed. "Everything seems in order, but I have to make sure."
Professor Goodwitch with the flick of her wrist, levitated a towel in the room and flash-freezed it before reheating it once more, before drawing it to her hand. With expert care, she blew on it before laying the towel on Ruby's entire face as she fixed Ruby's dangling limbs back in place. Satisfied, she looked at Pyrrha and spoke:
"She needs rest. She'll be fine as long as she won't refill anyone's aura tonight. She can resume it tomorrow. That-" with a heavy emphasis "is essential. If she misses my class tomorrow, I will hold all of you accountable. Pass that to everyone for me will you?" Pyrrha nodded seriously, before Professor Goodwitch smiled and relaxed. Gesturing Pyrrha to come closer, Pyrrha obliged, slightly apprehensive. The Professor kissed her, taking in a bit of her aura in her- while Pyrrha widened her eyes in shock.
"Well, that should keep me...in condition till tomorrow." smiled Glynda as she broke apart. Pyrrha reddened, making the Professor grin. "You could learn from me you know, to please and tease someone you like. For instance...this sleeping beauty."
"Umm-" was all Pyrrha could mutter.
"Do take your time in considering...my offer, Ms. Nikos." said Professor Goodwitch as she stood up to leave. "Oh, and...keep yourself sane alright?" Pyrrha nodded quickly, smiling awkwardly as she watched the Professor strut her way out the door.
"Do NOT, I repeat, NOT accept her offer." Pyrrha turned around and saw Weiss, hands on her hips. "She will deceive you, and will treat you like a reusable dust barrel."
"I-I wasn't going to-" but Weiss raised her finger, cutting her off.
"She WILL trick you- I've a genuine idea on what she's planning, and it will not bode well. You've seen what happened to Ruby after class right?"
"Well, yes-"
"Good. I don't want you to end up like her- you're too pure for that." said Weiss smiling as she ended her persuasion. Pyrrha just nodded in response as her cheeks blushed.
Weiss quickly looked behind her, seeing Yang coming to as she stood up, rubbing her rump- she looked...weakened. She fears for what's coming. Velvet had devolved as her FUC manifested- her ears visibly shaking as she held her arms in a tight grip, face scrunched up breathing hard. Blake had a few bottles of milk for Velvet to drink- hoping she could calm her down a bit. Coco sat beside her partner as she leaned on her, humming a song that brought a smile to her partner's face.
"...Well, looks like we're alright for now. So Ruby won't be able to...give us her aura till tomorrow... Well, looks like we're going to have to deal with it regardless." said Weiss speaking to herself as she began pacing around the room.
"True, we'll have to manage...our auras till tomorrow." said Pyrrha, catching Weiss attention.
"...I'm fine with what I currently have." said Weiss as she turned to Pyrrha, glancing at her hands as she flared them subtlety as the marks appeared on them- barely a rose petal was red. "...What about you?"
"From just sensing...my own, I think I'm fine. Though I need someone to confirm- my marks on my back." said Pyrrha as she slid closer to the edge of the bed. "Oh, and about refilling-"
"I heard. I already texted them about that. Yang's the exception." said Weiss as she unfastened Pyrrha's battle corset. "...You really have a smooth back, how'd you keep it like that?
Pyrrha giggled a little as she felt Weiss feel her back- as well as causing her mark to unconsciously appear. "Well, I do use some home-made herbal lotions-"
"Share some with me later, I promise I'll make it worth your while. The ones I have aren't exactly ones I...like." said Weiss as she took in the grand design of Pyrrha's mark."Your marks about half empty. This...is a little worrying."
"I think...I can manage. At least, it'll be good practice when the time comes to test my...aura withdrawal exercise." said Pyrrha optimistically.
"Optimistic, and Steadfast. You really do deserve the title "The Battle Born Warrior of Mistral."" said Weiss as she withdrew her hand. "You can put it back now."
"Tha-thanks." said Pyrrha as she fixed her outfit once more. "It does us good to be prepared for absolutely anything."
"I'll go check on the others. And...Pyrrha?" said Weiss she got off the bed.
"Yes?"
"...Don't go overboard alright? Or...you might do something you'll regret. Remember, we always know our limits. And, ask me if you need a share." said Weiss, her cheeks slightly pinking as she strolled away from the bed, not looking back.
"I-I'll be fine...I hope."
"Yang...are you ABSOLUTELY sure you're fine?"
"I-I am! I promise snowflake! There's nothing wrong with me right now! See!" said Yang as she smiled.
"...You're leaning on my shoulder, you're face is flushed, your breathe is choppy, your eyes are flaring red uncontrollably-"
"I-I'm just po-positively charged!"
"I think you mean negatively empty."
"NAH! That's just my chirpy, happy self! You can just tell I'm RED-Y!"
"I think you mean, unsteady."
Yang and Weiss left the dorm to make reservations in the school cafeteria- paying to cater for Ruby's birthday. She knew Ruby liked the cafeteria's nearly illusive desert buffet that happens once a week- most students only saw the buffet occur and rarely get anything out it- partly because by the time they reach their turn, the buffet had no more to serve. Out of their entire team, only Weiss had access to the buffet everytime- with boys(and Jaune) trying to sway her to date her(which ends up giving up their spot) right before feeling her icy smile. She once brought Ruby a slice of cake and Ruby became as obedient as a guard corgi for the possibility of more. The staff tend to not offer catering services- school policy as such, but that didn't stop some people- especially with Beacon's staff pay being subpar. With a client such as Weiss- the entire staff had the biggest smile on their faces as they received a ludicrous undisclosed amount of Lien- with the leader fainting as he had held the amount in his hand. Suffice to say, everyone was absolutely happy. As long as Ozpin doesn't know about this.
What didn't help was Yang- having experienced Nora's devastating semblance head on- she was butthurt(literally) and had a gnawing sensation all around her body. She was fine when they had left for the cafeteria, but slowly danger signs appeared as time passed on. Weiss wasn't sure on how much Yang had lost, but she knew Yang had the least amount of aura capacity in their entire team- burning out faster than a firework. She knew Yang was near the danger zone- the question that remains is simple: How long will she last?
With their business done in the cafeteria, they walked back to their dorm, Yang having a very hard time to stay herself- she was clinging to Weiss, rubbing her hand on her arm, her face red in a mixture of lust, desperation and disgust. Eyes flaring at intervals, her shoulders shaking, her breathing could be mistaken as quiet moaning. Weiss didn't mind- and in fact kept an eye out as they took the corridors that don't have any signs of students loitering the halls. As they zigzagged around the halls like a mouse in a maze- Weiss kept searching and searching for a particular place to hide for the time being- thought night was nearly upon them, the time for supper was something she has to avoid- with students filling the halls, the possibility of being scrutinized is a dangerous prospect.
"Wei-weiss...I think I'm starting to lose it.." said Yang as she pushed Weiss arm to her bust- holding it in a vice-like grip. "I-I don't know how much more I can-" but felt her drag her arm as she stormed into the first door saw.
"Not what I had expected, but at least it's sound proof." said Weiss as she turned to face Yang. She had brought her to a janitor's closet, locking the door behind her. "Strip."
"Wha-what?!"
"I can't exactly see your mark with your clothes on can I?"
"We-we could just kiss li-like we alwa-" said Yang, but got silenced as she felt Weiss ruffle through her clothes, taking charge and ignoring her completely. Weiss touch on her skin was relief on her- like a cold shower. It quelled a bit as she allowed Weiss to lift her top, exposing her stiff nipples.
"...Hrmm.." said Weiss as she stared onto Yang's breast- before flicking it with her finger, making Yang yelp.
"Wha-what was that for?!" asked Yang, trying to control herself. The touch was turning her on, as well as making her legs shake.
"...Oh, I don't know, just thought I'd do that." said Weiss as if it was a normal thing to do. Changing her gaze, she focused lower, as she pulled down Yang's shorts in an instant- revealing a see-through underwear, soaked in her juices. "...Of course, why am I not surprised."
"He-hey! I do-don't judge you whe-when go to bed not wearing anything because you lo-love Ruby sleep-humping you!" whined Yang, as she saw Weiss kneel down to the floor. "Wha-what are you doing?"
"What does it look like?" asked Weiss as she pulled down her panties, revealing a red rose mark, with one petal flashing yellow and red in dangerous intervals. "...Nora really did a number on you. Impressive." Weiss could sniff Yang's scent roll off, arousing her as well.
"So could you...spare a bit to share now?" asked Yang as stared downward. "Thi-this is embarrassing. Hot, but embarrassing."
"...Actually~" said Weiss as she looked up, a glint in her eye and a wicked smirk on her face. "Now...might be the perfect time for a little, heart to heart."
"Oh No. Don't you dare be that girl right now-" said Yang as she felt her gut sink.
"Oh, I'm going to be THAT kind of girl right now." said Weiss as she stood upright.
"I-I'm literally going to become insane if we don't-"
"Oh, we can...manage that." said Weiss as she eyed Yang's state of dress. Her eyes taking in the luscious form of the battle brawler, reduced to that of a street harlot. "Just...let me get comfortable."
Yang was about to let her have a piece of her mind, when she felt her glyphs lock her wrists, ankles and torso in place. Struggling in vain as she looked around to try and free herself, she tried to fire up her semblance, but instead felt it dissipate after a few moments with now the gnawing growing in intensity.
"Da-damn this stupid-"
"Oh, Yang?"
"WHA-whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-" As Yang's gaze fell on Weiss, her anger disappeared as she saw Weiss, a seductive smile on her face, her hand on her bolero as she slowly removed it, exposing her white skin.
"If you're a good girl, you'll get more than...a kiss from me." said Weiss, feeling playful. Yang had the most priceless look on her face, making Weiss giggle as she continued her striptease. Yang slouched as she relaxed under Weiss' restraints, watching the girl slowly remove her article of clothing. "But only...if you're going to be a good girl."
"I. am. a. gooooooood. girl."
"I beg to differ." said Weiss as she threw her bolero off her, a smile still etched on her face. "You're anything but a good girl."
"Says the one try-trying to get me riled up." said Yang as she smiled back, taking in her state of dress. "Not that I mind~"
"So, when you meant you had a crush on me from back then..." said Weiss as unfastened her skirt, keeping eye contact with Yang. "Could you...elaborate more? I find it...hard to believe, especially after you came hard at the palm of my hand- you looked like you hated it. Am I really that unattractive?"
"I did, didn't I?" said Yang as she went into thought. "Well, fo-for starters, I only said that cause I knew it would get a rise out of you. You're the most fun whe-when you're absolutely no fun."
"Cute." said Weiss as she leaned downward, now in her underwear, making Yang glimpse her cleavage. "I admit, it was fun."
"What can I say? I have ways to make people talk."
"Don't you mean ways to make people gawk?"
"Hey, I'm the one who does the puns here."
"Consider this your punishment."
"Oh look, the Princess tries to break the ice." said Yang as she rolled her eyes.
"I'm trying to defrost this situation." said Weiss as she stood upright.
"Ooohhh~~ I see~~ You know what they say- Cooler heads will prevail."
"Iceshould consider...a more fitting means of torture- this seems to not have any effect on you." said Weiss, hugging herself as she makes an attempt to emphasize her breasts.
"Talk about your cold shoulder. No need to have such a cold disposition Weiss. Come on~ Warm up~" grinned Yang as she licked her lips.
"I'm keeping a cool head, thank you very much." waved Weiss.
"Playing the Ice-olated role really doesn't suit you. At least, not right now."
"I'm just, trying to break the ice."
"More like trying to melting it to let off some steam."
"I don't think snow."
"If you're trying to crack me up, then you're walking on thin ice, Weiss."
"I'm not going to chill out if that's what you're thinking."
"Weiss, Why snow serious~" joked Yang as she made a sex-craved face making Weiss returned with an expression matching her own. Both of them drew closer- their face inches off each other.
"There's no snowing down this avalanche of puns is there?" said Weiss as she cracked under pressure.
"I'm just surprised you not becoming so icesickle of this." said Yang, being a master at this.
"Iceupoose not."
"I'm snow glad."
"Right- want to reach the tip of the iceberg?" said Weiss as she quickly stripped her bra away, revealing her perking breasts. Yang nodded slowly as remembered felt the gnaw ever crawling around her.
"Sure. We did slid off track, so what were we talking about before you started punning away?" asked Yang.
"We were talking about you having a crush on me." said Weiss as she started touching herself, getting ready.
"Well, I had so much fun with our constant fighting, I just...ended up liking you." said Yang. "You're fun to be with, you say what's on your mind, you find common ground despite having a hard time to do so- oh, and eventually when we had inadvertently had sex because of Ruby...I surprisingly did not regret it."
"Even though your face back then said otherwise." said Weiss as licked her breasts.
"I have an issue when someone can pleasure me as much as my sister can."
"But she did."
"My point being- you didn't oppose to it, not entirely."
"Well, if I were being honest myself, I was just as curious back then. A little apprehensive, but curious. If we had had sex before that, we'd probably never speak about it every again."
"Ditto. I had my eyes back then for Ruby, but hey, watching you have sex with my sister turned me on so much, it almost made me jealous when I wasn't invited." said Yang, with a small twitch in her eye- a remnant of feeling from way back when.
"So the almighty Yang felt left out of MY little play time? My, My!" taunted Weiss.
"Look here everybody! Snowlock Weiss has cracked the case! Give her an Ice sculpture for her efforts!" mocked Yang.
"I'll let that pass. So Yang, want a treat?" asked Weiss as she prepared to lower her last article of clothing. "After all, I think you've proven to be a good girl. A bitchy, good girl."
"Oh baby you know it." smirked Yang.
Weiss smiled and with a slow tug, she lowered underwear, revealing her oozing flower, as well as a dick ready for action. Yang stared at Weiss, feeling like she was played for a fool. All that's missing was a sign that said sucker and that would complete the picture of idiocy.
"...RUBY! YOU STUPID TRICKING LITTLE-" said Yang as she raised her voice, but Weiss quickly tightened her hold on Yang, making her flinch.
"Whoa there Yang, no need to worry. Ruby's not here." placated Weiss as she assured Yang- now thoroughly confused.
"Wha-what do you mean by not here? Of course she's here! That's the only way you can have that, right?"
"Well, after...your persuasive argument with Winter...She and I had a lot to talk about."
"We know. It's not exactly a secret that you slept with her, finally." said Yang, as if it's the most normal thing said all day.
"...Ruby, you are SO dead when I get my hands on you."
"Actually, we saw you make out with her by peeking through the door, then Ruby filled us in on the rest. So, half her fault."
"Do we not have our own time for privacy anymore?" groaned Weiss.
"Nope. Everything is, no pun intended this time, laid bare."
"You took that from Blake."
"Hey, she got my tongue back then- I mean, I kept licking all over her so~~~"
"ANYWAY- after...we have done the deed-" Weiss raised her hands to her chest as she showed off her two Rose marks on her hands to Weiss. "My mark had... changed again- it's a long story. All you need to know is, I'm connected to my sister more than ever."
"Cool story Weiss. Could you skip to the important part?" asked Yang impatiently.
"And...after Ruby had left us to be alone, this thing" pointed Weiss to her dick "didn't...go away. It became a really hard problem for me."
"Ooohhh~ I can tell~"
"Oh, Ha. Ha."
"I bet you would just like to plow that inside us, don't ya?" said Yang as she took a deep breathe as she made it sound like a moan. Weiss did not respond, though her dick pulsed.
"I don't know how Ruby does it- though at least now I can understand her problems now. Trying to not react when all of you are either half naked or making out or masturbating was hard with me in the room."
"So Weiss has been having wet dreams of me?" grinned Yang, making Weiss want to punch her in the face. "Well~ All you had to do was ask~"
"Well, after today, I should." said Weiss as he released her glyphs, making Yang fall to her knees. "Well, go on- suck out some aura."
"You know I like to do things, rough right?" said Yang as she positioned herself as she grabbed Weiss' dick.
"If you're thinking I wasn't rough before- then be prepared, to ride a snowstorm." said Weiss as she grabbed Yang's head and quickly pushed it down her shaft. Yang sucked feeling relief as she slowly bobbed up and down. Weiss buckled slightly- Yang much better, and much more experienced than Winter. Yang feeling relief as she slid her hands down as she started to finger herself- getting more into the mood. Weiss closed her eyes, content that Yang was pleasuring her steadily.
"Not bad, for a bimbo." said Weiss. Yang, in response, sucked with a loud pop in response as she parted, before pumping with her free hand.
"Well this bimbo will rock your world." said Yang proudly. Resuming her head, Yang plopped back, sending it deep into her throat. Weiss- feeling deepthroat for the first time, rolled her eyes back as held onto Yang's head, not wanting the sensation to stop. It wasn't long, and Weiss felt the pressure build- she was very near. With an evil thought in her head, she decided to keep quiet, and just let it build, hoping for the one experience Yang won't soon forget.
Yang herself, was showing no restraint. With the gnawing finally easing it's hold on her body, she sated her aura-induced lust, as well as her own as she continued to pleasure her crush. Keeping her eyes closed as she kept her pace, she could feel the muscle pulse with each bob she gives, as well as her finger going deep into her. She was hungry for more, and she will sate it as much as she can. Suddenly, she felt muscle expand as Weiss suddenly clamped her hands on her head, shoving it deep into her mouth, filling her load into her. Yang felt limbo- ecstasy and pain mixing as well as a relief washing over her. Weiss herself was breathing heavily, her mouth agape, drooling as she had finally relief herself, inside Yang. The pair stood still, up until slowly pulled out of Yang, and took a deep breathe of relief. Yang coughed slightly, gasping for air as the taste of cum and spit was roiling in her mouth before collapsing onto the floor.
"Ya know," coughed Yang "that was a little too rough for my taste, but I might grow to like it. As long as I can breathe." said Yang as she licked any residue off her cheeks.
"I have room for one more." breathe Weiss as she slowly slid down, exposing herself. "Looks like your mark is barely a quarter."
"I don't think I have enough energy to give ya one more head Weiss, I prefer to breathe thanks. Although..." Yang crawled over Weiss, making her feel her entire body as she quickly positioned herself on top of her dick. "...I am in the mood for this."
"Incestuous crazed bimbo."
"Sex hungry Mistress."
Weiss and Yang looked at each other, grinning hard, their faces red with lust before they started kissing- Weiss tasting herself as Yang wrapped her arms around the heiress. Yang, at the same time, grinded her lower lips over Weiss' dick, oozing over her as she teases her to take a plunge. Weiss, not wanting to be beat, waited just at the right moment, before-
"Oh come on Princess, what's wrong? Don't know how to USEEEEAAAAAHHH-" Yang gasped as she felt Weiss stabbed her so fast, she rolled her eyes back as she gaped lazily.
"Oh? What's wrong dear Yang? Am I not...on point?" said Weiss; her expression was no different- feeling a tight Yang was almost enough to send her over. Both stayed in position, before Weiss pushed Yang onto her back, and started to hump her slowly in the most agonizing pace. Yang spread her legs wider as she had granted Yang more room to move in.
Weiss responded in kind, as she increased her pace, looking into her face in absolute triumph. Yang looked back, looking so willing and cooperative, she exaggerated a moan to entice Weiss. Working like a charm, Weiss made out with Yang, continually staring into the deep lilac pools that reflected content, and admiration. Yang looked back, and saw the same responding with locking Weiss in her hold- not wanting to let her off. With a pop, the kiss broke as Weiss lowered her head to Yang's swinging breasts as it oozed out her milk. Weiss took a taste, while she bit down hard, making Yang shudder, before moaning in relief. The love making continued.
As both were nearing their limit, both increased their pace, and with their sense of reason leaving them, Weiss went to Yang's neck and bit her hard as she pumped for the final stretch. Yang, flinched, but not before giving her own in kind as she bit her neck as well. As Weiss thrusted for the final time, she let her load fill Yang, pulsing life into her as she moaned to her shoulder. Yang held her tight, as she too came, locking her in an iron tight grip. Both stood still, as Weiss parted, before landing on top on her boobs.
"We-well. Not bad for you Yang..." said Weiss as she panted contently.
"Same...to you too, snowflake." said Yang as she raised her arm to her forehead. "At least I don't feel like shit anymore."
"We should...get back to our dorm soon. We still have some decorating to do. Well you. I've done my part."
"Su-sure. After...awhile. I love to feel you inside me for a little while longer." teased Yang as she kissed Weiss head. "And...I'd like it if we could do this again."
"With Ruby, of course. I don't think I have the endurance like yours to be that rough a third time."
"A three way suggestion, coming from Weiss? Now that's something I thought I'd never hear from you." said Yang, almost laughing.
"Shut up, before I tear that smirking face of yours." grunted Weiss.
"Ooooohhhh Scary~~"
"Let's just get back alright?"
"Whatever you say snowflake."
Meanwhile, while Yang and Weiss had left for the cafeteria, Velvet lay on her bed, in her pajamas as she drank some of the FUC-reducing milk Blake had given her. Coco on the other hand, asked Nora to come out with her for a quick spar, wanting to study more on Nora's semblance. Nora obliged, wanting to play with her new found power more. Blake on the other hand, read her book on the bed as she lay beside an unconscious Ruby. Pyrrha, sat in the middle of the floor with the Beacon insignia, her eyes closed as she concentrated on her aura- as well as studying her sensations carefully.
When Velvet, Coco and Blake heard the warning Professor Goodwitch gave them about not being refilled tonight, they couldn't care about it- Coco's mark was in the safe zone and she said she won't need refilling- not after what she has plans for. Velvet and Blake having already heard this due to their heightened sense of hearing, already knew what that implicated. Velvet was worried- she knew what happens to them when the marks become depleted- despite not having personally experienced being completely drained herself. Not when Coco's around- she gets either refilled or depleted with Coco giving or receiving aura from her partner- never in the danger zone, but never in the safe zone either. Blake was prepared herself- she already knew what to expect, and her mark, which had previously been near depletion, was filled to the brim. Licking off Ruby's scattered secretions had refilled her to somehow share any if anyone decides to become...insane. A trick she had discovered back at Ruby's house in patch. She had offered the idea to the others back then, but all of them brushed it off as one of her kinks(which it is). Though it did prove to have it's merits, in a desperate situations.
Pyrrha however, though outwardly confident, was unsure of herself. She had experienced being depleted before, and it wasn't entirely a bad experience- not when Weiss was there to share it with. Weiss had assured her that it would alright, and Pyrrha trusted her enough and, in the end she enjoyed it. Still, she felt a little awkward after that, but it didn't change much of her view on the heiress. Thinking back then, she decided to study what happens to her, or her friends when their marks deplete, as well as thought of possible precautions to help strengthen her mind. Today, her findings would be put to the test.
Though Pyrrha's mark was half empty, she felt the familiar sensation crawl around her skin. She felt her ever steady aura disrupt- like a hiccup. She felt the aura Ruby had infused her with, slowly disappear as the ever slow passage of time went by. Opening her eyes, she stared at her hand. Through complete discipline, she had the tenure to keep her body still, no matter how frightened she might be, yet she could feel her hand twitch in minor spasms- like a knuckle raising itself, or a finger twitching, though she wasn't even trying to move. She took deep breathes- from her experience before, she felt like her chest tightened- like she was drowning from lack of air, to find that now she feels tell-tale signs that her breathing was already uneven, taking in big breathes, in random intervals, as if gasping for dear life. She felt her body shudder, despite room temperature. She felt heat build in her cheeks- a familiar presence rising out of her.
To counter-act this, Pyrrha flowed her aura inward, as opposing to passively letting your aura envelope your body. If aura flowed outward means to protect and to use, flowing inward was to contain and to recuperate. An advice Ren had given her back then when he was meditating on his lonesome. She knew Ren had the most discipline when it comes to weaving aura attacks, as well as managing aura output, so she took his advice and gained a more overall control over her own. As if on an instant, she felt the effects lessened, as she let her aura flow inward. Concentrating as she closed her eyes once more, taking deep breathes. Once in a while, she let the aura resume it's flow out of the body, to relax, before flowing inward again. It wasn't long, and Pyrrha had achieved what she had wanted- to slow the depletion of aura from her. Smiling as she had succeeded, she took a deep breathe, before she visibly relaxed, as she lay on her back.
Blake looked at the edge of her eye, and saw Pyrrha smile. Content, and happy- bringing a smile to her face as she continued to read her book. Looking on the other side, she saw Velvet slowly doze off, feeling a little sleepy and relaxed. Ruby snored contently, her face looked like life was returning to her.
"Trying to take a peek hun?"
"...No, Faun. I'm...just content." replied Blake in her mind, as she went back to her book.
"You've been looking at everyone else ever since you told your story back at the motel." whispered Humina. "...I wonder, do you...feel content? Or...guilt?"
Blake scowled as she felt Humina's piercing words. "...W-what are you insinuating?"
"That you didn't tell the whole truth." said Humina, straight to the point.
"She's gotcha there hun." pointed out Faun, with a hint of smugness. "True, everything you said back at the motel was the absolute truth...but the one before... well. Not exactly in the right, are we?"
"...Not, yet. I-I still need time-"
"Could you cut that excuse out hun? It's a real turn-off. You keep saying that to us. When I really don't see a reason why you should hide that you aren't exactly, the lone prowler you make them believe you are."
"What's to be scared off? You said you trust them right?" said Humina humbly.
"Well, yes but-"
"Or...would you prefer that they find out that...you lied to them about your past. The damage...it would do." said Faun, her words felt like a deep wound on Blake's mind. "Or...is this one of your sadistic fetishes?"
"Ru-ruby understands."
"Just because she kept having conversations with us about this issue, doesn't excuse the fact that you still have to hide it with the others."
"...What..are you-" said Blake as she felt her chest tighten, and felt a phantom hand on her shoulders.
"Though we are your manifestations of your human and faunus side..." whispered Faun. "We aren't exactly the kind that can be...taken lightly. We do what we must."
"...We do have our own minds, and have free will." said Humina. "And...we do what we think is best, for you."
Blake imagined, for a moment, as the faces of Faun and Humina flashed between her eyes- Humina looking worried, with Faun looking temperamental.
"...I've got to stop reading these over the top stories." replied Blake as she closed her book shut and sighed. "The story's rubbing off on you, making it seem bland, and stupid."
"Because it is, bland and stupid." snickered Faun, as her voice cracked from being serious. "I mean, whooo~~ I'm so deep and emotionless and I'm all hunky and I have all the problems in the world~ HA! That just cracks me up."
"You should have just stick to those romance novels instead of adventure stories." placated Humina.
"If I read the same genre over and over, its just going to make me bored of them. I don't want that." reasoned Blake.
"SO, seriously, about the lying about being alone-" interjected Faun. "Why not tell them you have a family?"
"...Because of reasons." said Blake as she felt her tail curl around the bed sheets.
"Is it because you think they'll embarrass you when you introduce them to your...markmates?" chimed Humina.
"Riiiiiight. I forgot, her dad's the type who would judge first, then ask questions later." chuckled Faun. "Dearie, oh dearie~ You reap what you sow~"
"When I get my hands on you..." scowled Blake, as she grip the spine of her book.
"Hey, it's your fault for giving in to your senseless reasoning back then at Ruby's place. I didn't do a single thing." boasted Faun.
"As for her mother-" said Humina thoughfully.
"...Don't. Say. It."
"I won't, I won't. She's...an interesting mother, to say the least." laughed Humina.
"She'll absolutely love it that you have mates with you!" laughed Faun. "She's the reason why you're so kinky in the first place!"
"...I hate the both of you so much right now." said Blake, as she lay on her stomach, throwing the book to the side. Her face was tomato-red, gritting her teeth as memories flooded her mind. "...What am I but a slave, to this torment?"
"Hey, we're here because of Ruby, and most importantly, because of you." pointed out Faun.
"How is this MY fault?!"
"For starters, the consciousness that bears the weight of your humanistic emotions, the little voice in your head that voices your doubts and judgement...became me." chimed Humina. "It's not fun when you don't listen to me, since if you did...you might have ended up with much much more."
"And you, who would let your instincts rule your sense of reason created me, the sensually sexy libido loving Faun~"
"You just took the main plot of the story I'm reading and shoved it in my face."
"Hey, it's true you know! It's not my fault that you tend to read stuff that reflects what or how you feel currently." reasoned Faun. "It's just...you know, you should be...more yourself."
"...That's thing, now- I have no idea, what myself is. Not when Me, myself and I constantly talk over each other every single day in my head, while I'm trying to deal with the same thing with the rest of my team. No wonder why most people think I keep to myself."
"Well, if that's how you want to play it-" snickered Faun.
Blake felt her muscle contract as she closed her eyes- her body raised itself against her will, as she shifted in place, creating Faun and Humina from her shadows. Pyrrha, who was lying down, saw this and quickly sat up to find the peaceful atmosphere break. Velvet sat upward from shock- as she looked around to find Blake stumbled as two of her clones sighed and stretch- as if they had woken up.
"Ah~~ It's good to be out once in a while~" said Faun, her slit eyes scanning the room, stretching her body as her tail playfully twirled. Blake, annoyed, pushed Faun off the bed, making her hiss in pain as she too rolled off and gathered her bearings. Humina, essentially a humanized Blake, looked at the two huntresses and greeted them in a kind manner.
"You idiot! We're supposed to conserve our aura since Ruby can't refill us till tomorrow!" said Blake as she stood up, folding her arms in anger.
"Hey, you said you wanted some alone time~ Well here we all are!" reasoned Faun. "Besides...now that I'm out...I think it's time for me to have a little fun~" Blake grabbed her by the wrist as she twisted it behind her back, making her snarl and hiss.
"Listen here you cheap skank, if you do something to either Velvet, or Pyrrha here that would make them cry or angry-"
"Look Hun...you don't have the guts to do what you say you do. You're a wuss puss." taunted Faun.
"Try me." said Blake, her left eye turning to a slit.
"With...pleasure." grinned Faun, as she scratched Blake, making her wince and easing her grip, before backing away, and priming her claws. Blake held up her left fist, as she drew her claws with her right. Both quickly charged, and a catfight broke out.
"...So what's going on?" asked Velvet, looking at Pyrrha and the humanized Blake.
"She's beside herself." said Humina, as she relaxed on the bed, picked up the book Blake was reading and perused it's pages. The catfight devolved further as Blake and Faun tore at each other's clothes.
"I can see that, but why-"
"Long story. Oh, and...it's nice to officially meet you, I am Humina. Blake's human side." said Faun as she bowed her head to Velvet.
"U-umm...nice to meet...you?"
"Don't worry, this isn't the first time they've done this." said Humina. "They've been at each others throats since time immemorial."
"Don't you...think we should break them up?" asked Pyrrha. Humina turned her head, making Pyrrha jolt in place. Pyrrha has never actually talked to Blake's...personas. "It looks like they might hurt themselves."
"Oh don't worry, they're not hurting me." smiled Faun.
"I meant Blake." correct Pyrrha. Velvet could not help but snicker, as she covered her lips with her hand. Pyrrha realizing this, felt like a fool.
"That was supposed to be a joke, but...you shouldn't be overly concerned about...those two right now." said Humina, her eyes on Pyrrha. "They'll finish once they get tired of it."
"That's...what I'm worried about." said Pyrrha, still feeling a little bit of a dunce. Angry hisses and snarls now fill the room, as both tumbled back and forth, trying to gain the upperhand, screaming obscenities on every cat-related theme.
"Her aura's filled to the brim from slurping Ruby's jizz. So there's no real imminent threat, at least for the time being." smiled Humina. Pyrrha felt her face blush at...her nonchalant forwardness. Velvet continued her giggles from her side of the room.
"Hrmm... now that I..noticed...Pyrrha was it? Could you...come closer?" gestured Humina as she laid our her arm. Pyrrha, obliged, as she got off from the floor and sat beside the snoring Ruby- still completely content in her escape from Nora in her dreams.
"Is...there something you want?" asked Pyrrha her cheeks slightly pinking, her smile a small one. Humina smiled as she nodded, and quickly asked her to come closer. Humina took a good long look at her, before returned to her book.
"...You have...beautiful eyes." Pyrrha felt like she was going to explode, as she held her arms close to her chest. "...Not a bad...personality too."
"U-UM-"
"I'm sorry- it's just that it's rare for me to find...someone as whole-heartedly pure as you." said Humina, as she glanced at Pyrrha, gauging her reaction.
"THA-THANKYOU?" Shrilled Pyrrha, her voice uneven trying to accept the compliment.
"You know...I envy you for that." said Humina, her voice a little solemn. "I'm a mere fragment of the person you know as Blake. Though, I may think and act as if I have free will...I do not. I'm just...a literal figment of her imagination. You...yes you, are much more. It's not just you I envy, I envy Velvet over there as well. I envy Weiss, I envy Yang...I even envy Ruby over here." Humina cupped Ruby's cheeks as she caressed it like a mother. "I wonder...sometimes...the feeling of being actually...whole."
Pyrrha felt...confused to say the least. Velvet, curious as to what she meant, walked to the bed and joined in the conversation.
"Uumm...I hate to be ignorant, but...aren't you technically...your own person?" asked Velvet.
"Well...no. Not really." said Humina. "I'm the little voice in her head. The voice of reason- the one that represents if Blake wasn't a Faunus. I'm only a part of a whole. I can't feel...emotions."
"Bu-but you're smiling and laughing and giggling-" pointed out Pyrrha.
"Because that is how I think I should react." smiled Humina. "The sole exception though...is lust. Being the link that binds me to Blake, and to an extent...Ruby."
"I-I'm so confused." said Velvet, her ears drooping.
"It's not that hard, I think Velvet." said Pyrrha, earning a nod from Humina. "She's...a persona of Blake, come to life that bears cold emotionless judgement."
"Correct."
"...Though, the part you said that you aren't your own I find...wrong."
"Pardon?"
"Just...because you think you are born from one part of a whole, doesn't necessarily make you any less than the original. Yes, you think and you speak. Just because you do so, doesn't automatically mean that it would influence the entirety. Therefore...I think the way you are now, makes you your own."
Velvet was left stunned, unable to form words as everything clicked into place. Humina felt elated, and went on to hug Pyrrha.
"That's very sweet of you." blushed Humina. "...Oh, now you're making me blush~"
"It's nothing really..." smiled Pyrrha as she hugged back.
"I've never thought it that way before. And it warms my heart." smiled Humina as she held Pyrrha at arms length. "...In fact...I'd like to repay you somehow~"
"Oh, really, you don't have to d-" but was silenced as Humina kissed Pyrrha on the lips. Her eyes widened as time felt like it had frozen- the seconds dragging on and on and on. Velvet squealed in delight as she, essentially for the record, watched "Blake" kiss Pyrrha. The catfight that was going on in the background came to a screeching halt as they felt warm lips on them, and quickly looked at the source- with the real Blake feeling mortified, and Faun her switched flipped. Humina sticked her tongue into Pyrrha as she cupped her cheek to intensify the sensation, while Pyrrha felt her tingling sensation from her body subside. As they broke the kiss apart, Pyrrha took deep breathes as she faced Humina, her eyes looked glossy, yet strangely, it had brightness in it that felt like an ever burning flame that would never be snuffed out.
"Not a bad kisser...Ooooh~ I think I might actually fall for you~" smiled Humina. Pyrrha mouthed words that would not come, as she looked both from Humina and an excited Velvet- who would not stop shaking in glee as she signaled her to do it one more time. "It's just like one of my Menagerian Animes I watch with Ruby."
"UM-I-WELL THAT WAS- UM I-I-I-"
"PY-PYRRHA?! What- how- why did- did I just-" stuttered Blake as she walked near the bed, gaining her attention as her cheeks pinked.
"Well, well well~ Looks like Humina over here has played the moves on with ol' Pyrrha here~" grinned Faun. "Can I have a turn?"
"No."
"Thanks! I kn- WHAT!?" gasped Faun. Blake widened her eyes as she, for the first time, watch Faun become dumbstruck. "OH COME ON! CAN'T I JUST HAVE ONE...EAT OUT SESSION?"
"...No." replied Humina firmly. "Because I don't want you to scar her for life."
"You say that about me to everybody!"
"Yes, I do, because I do have actual reasons."
"Isn't this because you want Blake to mark her as well? Or is this one of your...elaborate plans where you somehow drag Coco and Velvet into the mix?"
"Well..."
"I KNEW IT! SO COME ON! Just one...session? Maybe I put my tail in her and watch her squirm?"
"The point of begging is to ask for less and less, not asking for more."
"OH YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS WHOLE THING-"
Humina and Faun started arguing, completely ignoring the fact that a blushing Velvet was eyeing both Pyrrha and Blake so much that she didn't minded if she gets shacked up with Blake, considering it's friends with benefits with a more golden benefit. She only has her one true love- even if that one true love loves to sleep with other people on a regular basis. With her consent. Pyrrha stared both back at the...arguing personas, as she switched her gaze to Blake-who mirrored her actions to the letter. Both were shocked, and suffice to say, embarrassed about the whole ordeal.
"If this is what you go through all day...I'm so, so sorry." said Pyrrha, trying to keep eye contact with Blake.
"...Thanks...for the concern. But...aren't you..going to be...mad at me?" asked Blake, getting straight to the point. Might as well tackle this head on.
"Wha-what for?"
"...My Human side just essentially tried to hook you and me up because of my kinky fetish to have a lot of women to sleep with. Mostly because of my FUC."
"...Well...I'm not opposed to it."
"E-excuse me?!"
"...When I asked you to help me with...becoming closer to Ruby, well I took into account that I might eventually have to...sleep with you if we cross that bridge. It's a living requirement afterall... W-we are all in the same situation. It also, I hoped, would...make me feel more open about...this."
"Of course you are...thinking ahead and thinking of the others benefit while making your own sacrifices. Pyrrha, You are truly one of a kind."
"...I have to be, because..."
"Say no more, please...I-we know."
"If you're going to do that, can I join too? I DID promise proper pointers." said Velvet, her smile loosening up, though her ears are wagging happily.
"...Uum...we-we-we-we-we could do this..now? I guess?" said Pyrrha boldly, her face becoming so irresistibly red that it almost hurts to laugh at the entire ordeal.
"Well, Yang and Weiss aren't going to be back for another...hour or two. So I guess we could do that now." said Velvet.
"As soon as I put these two away..." said Blake as she shuffled away from Pyrrha as she went to absorb her most noisy selfs.
"G-go easy on me...alright?" asked Pyrrha.
A/N: Don't worry, it will be continued on the next chapter.
I'm sorry for the long disappearance. I had work, life, and projects to do so I stopped writing for that duration to finish the ones I have. I do read PMs from time to time, and I appreciate the words that they want me to speed things up, but I want to take my time with this. No need to rush, just enjoy~ I'm sorry if I don't respond.. I'm not always on this site- I just come here post, then move on. Why did I post it here? Because here I can practice my style in peace. I think my English is improving, yes? I do read reviews too- though I don't reply because I don't want to either spoil what I have plans for. I hope you just enjoy the ride. I appreciate that you like my style- even if it's offputting than the much better ones out here.
Now for a small tidbit I like: I really like writing banter. Conversations. It's fun. It's exciting. It's where I get to make fun of the characters. As you can see...above. In fact, I had so much fun, I had over 15,000 words that I had to scrap the entire thing because there is so much people can take about watching Yang and Weiss pun at each other to death. I may use it as reference. I had planned that part in my spare time too, while I had it, too bad it's such a shame I had to hide it. You could say I was...having a puntastic time.
The way they interact, the possible annoyances, the look on their faces, the absolute meat of character development- it's fun. I also tend to test writing styles on chapters to see...if it's an interesting read. If it works, I go for it. This did began as a way to test possible writing styles in English. It did help in my cram english proficiency tests. Japan is strict when it comes to English tests yes.
I also noticed that I tend to repeat plot points a lot- thank you for pointing that out. I will try, to not let it happen too much.
As for people who say the plot is not serious- because it isn't. I want it to keep it simple, while the smut reigning supreme. I work as a erowriter- like any other perverted guy who goes to comiket to sell their doujin. Only in this case, I just give the story for free, where as I hire an artist, gather the materials, go to a printing press, sell the plot, give the cut and repeat it for the next time comiket comes.
As always the next one will take a long time. A week or two. Or I suddenly disappear for a month- it is the holiday months yes?
Shoutout to Kitsflame, EndlessChains and knightofsprite. I hope you would enjoy the rest of this adventure- because I don't plan on ending this. Oh, and to Kitsflame, I look forward to reading your rendition of ChronaxMaka Writer's Many Nights of Love. It was the first story I liked in this site. It was what drew me to this place in the beginning.
