Hello everyone, how's it going
From what I read in the last chapter's reviews I am grateful to know most of you were mindful in telling me how I did and that some of you enjoyed it. Honestly that helped some of my self confidence, thank you
So technically the next few chapters could be considered filler as it will take place between the break from end of Volume 1 and beginning of 2. This small break will give me a chance to catch up on some things that I haven't gotten to yet in the future chapters. But right now this chapter is just for a fun way to start.
So don't take anything serious if you hate something
Baconaddict. . It's strange how well alike we can think. That's all I'm going to say
Also, I gotten a friend to do something for me. If you ever wondered what the OC's of team SEVN look like, well, here you go

Anyways, before we begin
Disclaimer: All property is owned by their rightful owners, I only own the story
Now without further ado, lets begin
Sunlight of dawn shone through the window and onto Sasuke's face. Sasuke slowly opened his eye and sat up against the backboard of his bed. Sasuke closed his eye again as memories of yesterday came to mind
When they revealed their feelings the day before they spent the rest of the day, just walking down the halls of Beacon, enjoying each others presence before they returned to their dorm. Once they reached Yang's room she gave him another kiss which he returned before she let go and entered her room as Sasuke returned to his.
After a moment Sasuke opened his eye and got out of bed. He, as usual was one of the first to wake up in his team. Sasuke walked over to the kitchen part of his room and started to make himself breakfast like usual.
In all honesty when he became part of this team he figured there would be problems about little things, like food, waking up the others, complaints about cleaning the room, yet there weren't. They were okay with either making their own food or Akio doing it on his own as the others weren't that great when it comes to cooking. They never slept in, usually waking up to smell of Sasuke making his breakfast to the point they gotten used to waking up around six to six thirty in the morning without complaint. . Well Rhea does but only in a playful manner and Ivy just grumbles about how a bat shouldn't be awake this early
In all honesty Sasuke was happy he was teamed with these people. . . But, no matter what they'll never compare to his old team. Even if they did drive him insane at the time, they were a family of sorts
Sasuke looked over to the beds as his the rest of his team started to wake up. Akio was the first to get out of bed with a small yawn before he went to the makeshift kitchen and saw Sasuke had laid out ingredients for him to make breakfast for the others. The blue haired teammate gave him a nod before he started making his breakfast along with the others while Sasuke calmly ate his own breakfast in silence
The others soon joined him as Akio passed the plates of food to the others who began eating. After some time Sasuke noticed Rhea glancing at him from time to time
"What is it Rhea?" Sasuke inquired
"Nothing, you just seem really happy for some reason" Rhea pointed out casually "Did something happen after you left yesterday" Rhea inquired casually
Sasuke thought back to Yang and forced himself not to smile "In a way" Sasuke answered cryptically as Yang wanted them to reveal the news later
". . Okay?" Rhea muttered after a moment as she looked at the others who shrugged in response before she gave her leader another another glance
"You wish to ask me something else don't you?" Sasuke asked as he noticed the contemplated look on her face
"It's nothing really, just wanted to know if you are leaving today or tomorrow is all" Rhea asked politely
Sasuke looked at her before realizing what she meant as today was the last day of the term and they are allowed to leave for break "Tomorrow" Sasuke informed them as Yang was leaving with Ruby tomorrow as well "Why do you ask?" Sasuke asked of his teammate curiously
Rhea shifted in her seat before Ivy let out a sigh "I'll say it, seeing as you're being fidgety about it" Ivy deadpanned as Rhea flinched at Ivy's bluntness "We want to know if we can stay with you over the weekend" Ivy asked rather bluntly
Sasuke lifted a brow at the girls wondering where this came from. That is before he remembered that neither Rhea nor Ivy have a home to go back to, Akio on the other apparently has a guardian that takes care of him but he doesn't speak of him very often
Sasuke let out a sigh "How long were you two waiting to ask me that?" Sasuke asked questionably as this decision couldn't have been made recently
"About a week after we learned of the break. We just never got the chance to talk to you because something always popped up and we couldn't ask you" Rhea explained with a nervous chuckle
Sasuke raised a brow before looking at Ivy "I'm actually rather curious to why you want to come with" Sasuke said as Ivy, even though her attempts of joining in most of the others groups conversation, is still a quite reclusive person
"Truthfully I'm okay with being by myself but sadly I gotten so used to being around you lot that I don't really feel like being by myself this break" Ivy explained rather nonchalantly for someone who had a faint blush on her cheeks from embarrassment
Rhea giggled at Ivy's expression while Akio just smiled lightly
"So, can we come or not" Ivy said dryly as she sensed the looks the other were giving her
". . As long as you respect my privacy I don't mind" Sasuke said after a moment before sipping his tea
"Don't worry, we'll respect your privacy by leaving the house the second I hear you start jacking it" Ivy said nonchalantly as she ate her food
Sasuke choked on his tea while Rhea just stared at Ivy before letting out a small burst of laughing as a small blush appeared on her face. Akio just shook his head in amusement as he along with Rhea would never imagine Ivy make such a raunchy comment
Sasuke just stared at Ivy who returned the look with a smirk. Sasuke just shook his head with a sigh before looking at Akio "What about you, what are you going to do for the break?" Sasuke asked as Rhea finally calmed down with an amused smirk on her lips
Akio look at him with a shrug "I'll be heading back to see the old man. Might come check up on you guys if I have time" Akio answered
"Just make sure-"
"If your trying to be funny it's not working" Sasuke said dryly cutting Ivy off before she could finish her sentence
Rhea let out another laugh and Akio chuckled a bit as Ivy resumed eating their breakfast in peace and once they finished they all got ready for their last day of the term
(Later in the afternoon)
"So I think we girls should have that sleepover we talked about a few weeks ago" Yang suddenly brought up as they left Oobleck's classroom which was the last class they had for the day and were now free to do whatever they want to. Even head back home early if they wanted to
Her team along with team JNPR and SEVN were currently in the middle of a hallway a couple of feet away from Oobleck's class as the man in questioned closed the door before zooming off to who knows where
"Not to be a spoilsport but what brought this on?" Rhea asked curiously as she stretched a bit as her wings unfolded as the others moved aside before they hit them
"I figured since today is the last day of the term I thought we all should do something together before we all head back home for the long weekend" Yang pointed out happily
"Yeah that sounds great, a big sleepover" Ruby said excitedly as the others started getting into the thought of a sleepover
"Sounds like fun" Rhea commented as this would be the first time she would have a sleepover with other people for fun
"I honestly think this is a good idea to bring us all together for some fun before we have to leave" Pyrrha stated thoughtfully
"Wait, what are we going to do then?" Jaune asked
"Well, this may be a good time for you guys to become closer friends" Pyrrha suggested as Jaune just stared at the other men of the group who each had a bored look on their faces
". . I don't think that's going to happen" Jaune said after a moment as the girls ignored him
"If you're doing this, don't bring a lot of candy or any at all for yours and my sake" Ren stated seriously before gesturing to Nora
"What, but it's not a slumber party without candy!" Nora exclaimed in horror
"Nora no" Ren said simply as Nora pouted at him which he ignored
"No alcohol Yang" Sasuke said suddenly entering the conversation
Yang turned to him with a pout "You're no fun" Yang complained lightly as Sasuke rolled his eye
"Whose room are we using for the sleepover anyways?" Ruby asked curiously
"Isn't it obvious, team SEVN's room because it's the biggest" Yang pointed as she turned to leave "Anyways, we should get some things ready before tonight, who wants to come with me to the store" Yang asked as Rhea looked at the others before shrugging
"I'm in, rather not have you buy some snacks that we don't like" Rhea said as she stepped over to Yang
"Sure why not, I have nothing better to do" Blake said as she walked over to Yang
"Time to get some snacks!" Nora exclaimed excitedly
"I'm coming along so Nora doesn't get anything too bad" Ren spoke up as Nora turned to him with her cheeks puffed up with a half hearted glare as she knew he wasn't going to let her get anything sugary
"Anyone else?" Yang inquired as Pyrrha raised her hand
"How about I go get us some movies as well" Pyrrha offered with a smile
"Great idea" Yang said as the red head nodded before turning to look at her sister "Alright, Ruby if you have any last minutes idea give me a call and I'll see if I can get the stuff" Yang said before looking at the others "Same goes for the rest of you girls" Yang said with a grin as she and the other volunteers began to leave before Yang stopped "Oh yeah I forget to tell you guys something, eh might as well show you guys instead of saying it" Yang said with a smirk as the others looked at her curiously
Yang walked over to Sasuke who raise a brow before noticing the look in her eyes. Sasuke let out a sigh and leaned in as she did the same as they shared a kiss. The two remained locked in place before they slowly moved away as Yang looked at him serenely with a smile on her lips
"Ta dah!" Yang exclaimed happily to the others who were staring at them in silent shock
". . . . Okay, first things first. FINALLY!" Ruby exclaimed as the others had to agree with that notion. From seeing how the two act so close with one another yet they aren't in a relationship was really starting to irritate them "And secondly, when did this happen!" Ruby exclaimed hysterically
"Yesterday" Sasuke replied casually as small smile graced his lips "Might as well go help you guys" Sasuke said to Yang who smiled at him again "Not to mention to make sure you don't bring alcohol because I know you're going to go" Sasuke muttered under his breath as Yang was close enough to hear him as she gave him a dry look
Yang soon let out an amused huff before planting a kiss on his cheek as she turned and left with Sasuke following close behind. The others just stared at them in silence before the rest of the volunteers said goodbye to the others and followed them.
". . . . Have any of you ever noticed how weird our group is?" Ivy asked after a moment as she gotten several murmurs of yes "Oh good, I thought I was the only one" Ivy said as the others just shrugged as the girls left to get ready for the sleepover, leaving Jaune and Akio by themselves
". . . Well this is going to suck" Akio muttered as Jaune let out a ragged sigh
(Later)
Sasuke was currently holding several bags of groceries outside another convenience store as the others of the group he was with were inside. The girls and Ren were currently inside getting the last bit of shopping for the girl's sleepover later this evening. Ren was also getting some tea for later because he said that if he was to be left in a room with the others than he might as well have some good tea to pass the time.
Sasuke looked around with a bored look before he noticed Pyrrha walking up to him with a bag of movies from a rental shop a block away "Are the others inside?" Pyrrha asked as Sasuke nodded "Alright then, I guess I'll wait out here with you" Pyrrha said as Sasuke just shrugged in response
They stood in silence as they watched people passing by going through their daily routines. Sasuke looked in the corner of his eye and noticed Pyrrha was being nervous about something. It took him a moment before realizing it was the fact he threatened her during the first week at Beacon.
". . . So you and Yang" Pyrrha brought up after a moment
"That's correct" Sasuke answered calmly
"She makes you really happy doesn't she" Pyrrha inquired politely
"She does" Sasuke answered simply
They then fell into silence once more until Pyrrha spoke up "I want to apologize if I threatened you in any way when I confronted you those few weeks ago" Pyrrha suddenly said as Sasuke whipped his head around to look at the red head in utter confusion
"I'm sorry, what?" Sasuke questioned as he wasn't sure if he heard that correctly
"You threatened me all those weeks ago because you were scared Yang would find out about everything you did. I'm sorry that I put you into that position, you were just worried about what would happen with Yang if she found out" Pyrrha stated as Sasuke stared at her for a moment before letting out a long sigh
". . . . Why are you apologizing?" Sasuke said after a moment as this scenario was completely backwards
"Well it's just-"
"Don't" Sasuke said cutting her off as Pyrrha looked at him "You don't have anything to apologize for anything, especially for what I did. I know what I did was brash and I have to admit I was somewhat scared of what Yang would say if she found out about that part of my life. . . So, I take back what I said to you that day and I wish that we would forget all about it" Sasuke said strongly
". . . Don't you mean your sorry" Pyrrha inquired with a wry smile
"Don't push it Nikos" Sasuke said dryly with no heat behind the words
Pyrrha covered her mouth as she let out a small giggle before looking straight ahead before frowning lightly when a certain thought came to mind "Will you ever tell her?" Pyrrha asked, still looking straight forward
Sasuke lowered his head with a tired sigh "I honestly don't know, maybe I will one of these days but not just yet" Sasuke explained with solemn look before shaking those thoughts away when he heard the sliding doors of the convenience store open
"Alright, got the chips, soda, popcorn and practically everything else" Yang said coming out of the store with Rhea, Blake, Nora and Ren behind her "Hey Pyrrha, got the movies" Yang said when she saw Pyrrha standing next to Sasuke
"Yep, got everything on the list you gave me" Pyrrha replied with a smile while holding up the bag with the movies in it
"Great, thanks Pyrrha" Yang said with a smile "Alright, lets head back and set up for the evening" Yang announced as she began walking back to Beacon with Sasuke walking next to her as the other followed a few steps behind
(Later that evening)
"You know for a fact I wasn't going to participate Yang. Why are you making such a fuss about this?" Sasuke asked as he was sitting up on the edge of their dorms roof while Yang stood behind him with her hands on her hips
"I was just hoping that you at least stay in the room with them Sasuke" Yang complained lightly with a pout
"You know better than anyone I don't like being around people that I have no business with" Sasuke said with a bored look
"One of them is your freaking teammate!" Yang exclaimed
"Yes, and he doesn't want to be in the same with room with the other two either" Sasuke pointed out dully
Yang let out a huff "I know but I was hoping you could make an exception just this once" Yang begged lightly
Sasuke let out a huff before turning to say no before looking at Yang's pleading eyes and bit his lip ". . . Fine" Sasuke said with a exasperated sigh "I'll stay in the damn room with them" Sasuke said dryly "But the second the situation becomes awkward or they'll try to make me do something I don't want to do I'm leaving" Sasuke grounded out with a pointed look
"I know, I know" Yang said with a small chuckle before pulling him into a hug which he immediately tensed from the sudden body contact. Yang qucikly noticed as she pulled away "Sorry, forgot you aren't used to body contact" Yang said with a nervous chuckle and rubbed the back of her neck
". . . It's alright, I'm probably going to have to get used to it now that we're, well" Sasuke said before looking away as he still wasn't used to saying they were dating. Which is understandable seeing as they haven't been 'together' for an entire day yet
"I know, but I'm not going to push you to do something you don't want to do" Yang said with a warm smile before noticing the look on Sasuke's face "What?"
". . . That's the most hypocritical thing you have ever said Yang" Sasuke stated bluntly with a dull look
Yang blinked before understanding what he meant "Me getting into your personal space and me wanting to help you to be more social are two different things" Yang complained playfully
"You say that but yet it feels the same" Sasuke said rolling his eyes as he managed to hold back a smirk
"That's only because I love you" Yang said before realizing what she said and laughed "God it's still weird saying that to you" Yang said placing one hand on her cheek as she felt a blush forming
"I know how your feeling. Never really thought I would ever fall in love yet, here I am" Sasuke said with a small smile that Yang always loved to see and was happy to know that she is the reason for him to smile
Yang stared at him for a moment ". . Can I" Yang asked as Sasuke knew what she meant
"You didn't really ask when we left class earlier today" Sasuke replied with a smirk
"Yeah, but that was just for the others to know we're now together. I still found it funny when Ruby called a minute after we left to know how we confessed to tell dad" Yang said with a small laugh
"Did you?" Sasuke inquired
"Nah, not yet at least, just wanted to keep it between you and me for a bit" Yang said smiling softly at him
Sasuke let out a small huff "I don't mind if you tell them" Sasuke said before he got up from the edge and stood in front of Yang with a small smile "Go ahead" Sasuke uttered softly enough for Yang to hear
Yang smiled before leaning in as they shared a kiss. Once they pulled away Yang gently wrapped her arms around him as he did the same, the two of them enjoying the moment at hand
That is before the moment was ruin when Sasuke pulled away to glare at the entrance to the roof. Yang turned to see what he was glaring and gave the onlookers a blank look
Ruby, along with Blake, Rhea and Nora were all at the doorway smiling at them innocently. When they realized they were spotted they waved at them before jumping back when a kunai embedded on the wall next to the door
Yang turned back to look at Sasuke who had a vein pulsing on his forehead from being interrupted. Yang let out a huff before laughing at her boyfriend's attitude "Come on, the others, as you can see, are waiting for us" Yang said sarcastically as Sasuke calmed down and rolled his eyes before following her to the others
"Next time, don't spy on us" Yang said ruffling her sister's hair when she walked past them
Sasuke simply ripped the kunai out of the wall and walked past them without a word
The four girls all laughed lightly before following the couple back down to team SEVN's room
(Some time later)
"So, what's first on the agenda" Pyrrha asked as all the girls were in their pajamas and gathered around the couch in team SEVN's room
"Well I suggest we play some games before we watch some of the movies we got, Blake got you some books based on the movies to read while" Yang suggested before turning her attention to Ivy who shrugged in response as she already has the bag of books in her lap
"Uh, Yang" Ruby spoke up worriedly
"Yes Rubes?" Yang said curiously
"Do any of these games involve us getting hurt in any shape or form" Ruby asked as the girls in the room turned to stare at Yang
Yang noticed their looks and stared back "What?" Yang said when she saw them shake their heads "Ugh, fine~ we won't be needing these then" Yang said as she pulled out several of Sasuke's kunai she borrowed from him and tossed to them side as the other girls stared at her frightfully
"Why?" Blake asked in complete shock
"What? It's just hot knife potato" Yang said as she pulled out a blowtorch she had hidden that she was going to use to heat up the kunais before tossing off to the side
"Not everyone has your pain tolerance Yang!" Ruby exclaimed as the others nodded
"Babies" Yang muttered under her breath
"Anything else? That doesn't involve hurting each other" Pyrrha asked, almost pleadingly
"Anyone got any interesting stories to tell" Yang suggested
"Oh! I been meaning this story for ages but I never got the chance!" Rhea exclaimed excitedly
"Alright, lets hear it" Yang commented before leaning back in her seat
"Alright, so this is a story about how I'm banned from a city in Mistral all because of a dog, some Dust, an old drunk, and a orphanage with a faulty support structure" Rhea began explaining as everyone stared at her in silence
After a moment everyone uttered the first thing that came to mind "What"
(Meanwhile)
The four boys that belong to the three teams were all sitting down in various spots around team JNPR's room. Jaune and Ren were on their beds with the latter sipping some tea. Akio was sitting down on a chair that was next to Pyrrha's bed as he was reading some books about machines while Sasuke was leaning against the wall next to the door as he was messing with Scroll
Jaune looked between the three boys as he had no idea what to do but decided to speak up "So what do you guys want to do" Jaune asked nervously as everyone stayed quiet "We could play some board games" Jaune suggested as Ren looked up and shook his head at his leader while mouthing to him to stop ". . . So it's going to be one of those days isn't it" Jaune said with a dejected sigh before trying again "I have a deck of cards, any of you interested in playing" Jaune asked hopelessly
"If we're betting money then I'm in" Sasuke said suddenly
"Agreed" Akio said nonchalantly
Jaune just looked at the two before looking at Ren who shrugged in response "Alright, anyone know how to play hold'em" Jaune asked as the others raised a brow
"Yes, but how do you know?" Akio questioned
"I have a lot of spare time back home" Jaune explained with a nervous chuckle
The others looked at each other before shrugging as they got together to play
"And so because of that I'm no longer allowed back in that city" Rhea finished her story with a huff as the others just stared at her slack jawed while Nora was laughing loudly
"How does someone even.." Weiss began but stopped as she has no idea what she just heard
"I swear you made half of that up" Blake said shaking her head in disbelief
"I would agree with you if it weren't for the fact I was listening to her heart and she wasn't lying" Ivy said running her fingers through her hair
"Wait, so that part with the old drunk being the real mayor and the mafia was after him was real!" Yang exclaimed
"Oh my god that orphanage, I'm just glad no one died" Pyrrha said shaking her head horror
It was around the time Nora finally calmed down "But, but the fact you did all while on fire and screaming out bloody murder while dressed as a ghost in front of all those children is hilarious" Nora said laughing once more
"Ugh, just because being on fire sounds fun it isn't" Rhea said with a dry look
"I really don't know what to say to this" Ruby mumbled
Rhea shook her head with a smirk "That's a common reaction, god that was fun though" Rhea said with an amused chuckle before looking at the others "So who else got a story to tell" Rhea inquired
"Me, me! I got one!" Nora waved her hands excitedly
"Alright, go ahead Nora" Rhea said with a chuckle
"So when I was a kid with Ren I thought what would happen if I covered myself in syrup and run through a forest but I didn't want to do that so I did it to Ren instead" Nora began with a grin as a single thought went through everyone's mind
"Oh god"
Ren looked up "Why do I feel something bad is happening" Ren muttered as he couldn't help but feel concerned over something
"Maybe it's becAUSE THIS BASTARD IS CHEATING!" Akio shouted out in rage as Sasuke laid out another winning hand
"I'm not wearing sleeves and I had my hands on the table the entire time. How could I have possibly cheated?" Sasuke inquired rather dully as he was currently holding everyone's money in his corner of the fold up table they were using
"Winning two times and maybe three times in a row I can believe is just a coincidence but. WINNING NINE TIMES IN A ROW IS UTTER BULLSHIT!" Akio shouted in rage as he shook the table
"Just because your unlucky compared to me doesn't mean anything" Sasuke said waving Akio off
"Why you condescending son of a" Akio ground out as he stayed silent for a moment before suddenly flipping the table into the air as he tackled Sasuke to the ground who was quite surprised of his teammates outburst to react properly
". . . .Should we do something?" Jaune asked his teammate as they both remained in their seats as they stared at the two others wrestling on the floor, yelling at each other with words of obscenities
"We probably shouldn't, this is a good way to bond with someone" Ren said ever so calmly
". . . If it wasn't for the fact I have seven sisters I would've said that is weird but I guess Nora counts as seven sisters" Jaune said after a moment of thought
Ren let out a tired sigh with a distant look "You have no idea"
"And so Ren had no choice but to return to where we were staying butt naked as the goats ate his clothes off his body. So ever since then Ren never allowed me buy syrup for our pancakes in fear of me either guzzling entire bottles of the stuff or doing something like that ever again" Nora said laughing as she did as everyone else howling with laughter, even Weiss and Iy were struggling to regain their composure
"O-Oh god, I don't think I can top that story" Yang said between laughs as everyone slowly calmed down to a fit of giggles before someone knocked on the door "I-I'll get it" Yang said whilst still giggling as she walked over to the door "Alright boys, what happened, did one of you get hurt or something" Yang said as she figured it was the boys but she opened the door and found Itachi instead
"Should I be worried about that statement" Itachi asked with a small smirk
"Oh Itachi, what are you doing here?" Yang asked as the others looked over the couch to look at the professor who pointed downward. Yang looked down and smiled at who she saw
"Yang~" Tsuki said happily as she hugged the older girl's leg
"Aw~ Tsuki, what are you doing here" Yang said sweetly as she leaned down and picked up the small girl in her arms
"You see Glynda and myself have to stay later than we expected for some meeting Ozpin is holding with the other professors. It would've been fine if wasn't for the fact our babysitter couldn't watch Tsuki so we decided to get Sasuke to watch her but I can't find him, so I decided to leave her to you" Itachi explained with a smile
"Ah, I see. . Wait, what do you mean you can't find Sasuke. He should be in JNPR's dorm room?" Yang questioned
"Well I actually checked the room, he isn't there so I tried calling him and when he picked up he apparently told me he, along with the others, left Beacon's grounds awhile ago" Itachi explained calmly as Tsuki was getting tired of being held in Yang's arms and tugged on Yang's hair
Yang's brow twitched when she felt Tsuki pull on her hair but she kept calm and put the younger girl down. Yang then pointed towards the others who waved at her as Yang gave her a small push as the small girl went over to the others with a smile on her face
Yang then turned her attention back to Itachi without a questionable gaze "Okay, if Sasuke and the others aren't here, where did they go?"
Jaune stared up at the giant neon sign above before looking at the others ". . Why are we here again?" Jaune asked timidly as they stood in front of a giant casino
"Well seeing as Sasuke is great at poker I figure this would be a good way to spend our time" Akio said with an evil chuckle at the chance of watching these people scream in horror as they lose all their hard earn money to his leader
Sasuke stared at his teammate with a slight wary look before letting out a sigh "If we're doing this then we're changing out of these clothes" Sasuke stated as they were all currently in their usual outfits
"What's wrong with what we're wearing?" Jaune asked as Sasuke looked down at Jaune's attire then towards other gambling participants who were all wearing nice suits and dresses
". . Really?" Sasuke asked exasperatedly
"What?! My clothes are stylish!" Jaune exclaimed
Sasuke let out a sigh "Come on, we're going to go get better clothes" Sasuke said before walking off in a random direction
"What, do you own a late night custom fit suit shop or something" Akio joked
(Few minutes later)
"Why do you own a late night custom fit suit shop!" Akio shouted at his leader who stared back at him before shrugging as the four men were now being measured in the said late night custom fit suit shop
"I thought it was a good idea" Sasuke said nonchalantly as someone took his measurements
"Why would someone need a suit this late at night!" Akio exclaimed in utter annoyance at his leader's thought process
"Drunk people who want to get shotgun weddings" Sasuke answered rather bluntly as the others just stared at him before looking at the men and women who worked here
". . . You be surprise how often that happens" One of the women said before going back to work as Akio let out a sigh as he let the man in front of him take his measurements
After a few minutes, apparently they also had several seamstresses and tailors at hand, their suits were done and they all walked out of the store wearing their suits
Jaune wore a baby blue suit with white accents, white dress shirt, black dress shoes and a baby blue bow tie.
Ren wore a dark green suit with golden accents, black dress shirt, black dress shoes and a pink tie
Akio wore a dark blue suit with silver accents, black dress shirt, black dress shoes and a forest green tie
Sasuke who had just paid for the suits walked out wearing a black suit, red dress shirt, black dress shoes and a black tie
"I have to admit, I look pretty damn good" Akio commented as he fixed his tie
"Just so you know you can keep those" Sasuke pointed out before he pulled out a red silk scarf with his symbol at the end of it and draped it over his shoulders as it added a flair to his style "Come on, lets get to the casino" Sasuke said as he walked away from the others who shared a look before smiling as they followed Sasuke
(Elsewhere)
Yang along with Blake, and Weiss with Ivy reading off to the side were watching a movie while the others were playing with Tsuki. The little girl was having fun playing with older girls and was laughing happily
Yang had her Scroll in her hand as she fumbled with it instead of watching the movie
Ivy, being able to sense what was happening let out an annoyed "Just call him for Oum's sake, it's getting annoying listening to you fumble with your Scroll" Ivy said irritably from her spot on the couch
Blake looked over to Yang with a smirk "Not even a day and you already showing yourself as an overprotective girlfriend" Blake joked as Yang gave her a dry glare
Yang let out a tired sigh "No it's not that, it's just I feel like they're doing something stupid. . . Which is completely unfair in my opinion because I wanted to do something stupid as well!" Yang shouted as she slammed her fist into the armrest of the couch as her eyes turned red
"Pretty" Tsuki called out as she looked over to see Yang in flames and in her young mind's opinion it looked really pretty
Yang looked over her shoulder to look at Tsuki with her eyes still red and smiled softly at her
"Your eyes are red" Tsuki said as she looked into Yang's red eyes
"Yes they are" Yang said with a smile at Tsuki's childlike intrigue
"I can make my eyes red too" Tsuki announced suddenly as she closed her eyes before opening them back up to reveal crimson eyes
Yang got up from her seat as she jumped over the couch as she went over to Tsuki and crouch down to her as the others looked on in silence "When did this happen?" Yang muttered as gently grabbed Tsuki's face as she looked into the young girl's now crimson eyes
Yang was curious as she peered into the little girl's red eyes, a shade of crimson much darker than her own eyes when she gets mad. When Yang was looking at Tsuki's eyes she noticed something in her left eye, just above her below her pupil was a tomoe. Why that was there Yang didn't know but for some reason it gave her a sense of dread
Yang smiled after a moment "That's really impressive Tsuki" Yang said trying to keep normal as she ruffled the younger girl's eyes
The young girl smiled brightly at the praise before she suddenly let out a yawn as she rubbed her eye as it faded back to its normal green "sleepy" Tsuki mumbled before falling forward into Yang's arms as she instantly fell asleep
". . . Well that was something" Yang said as she wasn't really sure what to say
"Yeah, her eyes turned red like yours" Ruby pointed out calmly
"Did she just find her semblance, if she did then maybe it would explain why she became tired. Though it's rather unprecidented that someone would find her semblance at such a young age" Weiss said walking over to Yang with Blake as the blonde stood up with the young girl in her arms who was sleeping peacefully
"She is an Uchiha though, nothing isn't possible for them" Yang said with a smirk
"She makes a solid argument" Ruby said nodding her head in understanding while the others just stared at the two sisters strangely as they haven't been around Sasuke as long as them to realize why they say that
The only one not really paying attention, aside from Ivy, was Pyrrha. She recognized those eyes in an instant, they may have been different and filled with childlike innocence but there was no mistaking the feeling she had when she saw them. They were the same eyes that Sasuke had when he competed in the Mistral tournament. Pyrrha while in thought of what those eyes could mean, she couldn't ask Sasuke because that would be violating his privacy and essentially destroy the understanding they had built up just recently
Ruby must've noticed her frown because she was looking at the taller red head "You alright?" Ruby asked of the spartan
"Huh? Oh, just wondering if we should call her father or not" Pyrrha lied with smile before she saw in the corner of her eye as Ivy lifted her head up from her book. The blind girl turned to her head towards her direction with a raised brow as she must've heard her lie. Ivy continued to stare before letting out a huff and shook her head as she continued to read her braille book
Pyrrha looked over to see Yang on her Scroll while Rhea was holding Tsuki in her arms now. Yang hanged up before returning to the group
"Itachi said that the meeting is almost over so he'll come to pick her up in a bit" Yang explained as the girls nodded as Rhea walked over and laid Tsuki down on her bed so she could be comfortable. Yang then decided to make another call
After a moment the call connected "I'm a little busy Yang" Sasuke immediately said as everyone turned to listen when Yang put the call on speaker
"And what would you busy with exactly" Yang inquired with a hum
Sasuke held a man in a headlock in one arm as he held his Scroll in his free hand "Do you want the full version or the short version" Sasuke asked as Akio punched the man Sasuke was holding as he fell down unconscious
"I'll bite, what's the short version?" Yang inquired
"The four of us are currently at an illegal part of a casino and we are currently fighting what I think is a mafia. . Or some well dressed gang members, I don't really know nor do I really care" Sasuke explained nonchalantly as he raised his hand up and caught a baseball bat that was about to hit him. Sasuke then ripped the bat from the goon's hand and broke it in two over the man's head as he fell down with a thump
". . . Okay. . What the hell is the long version then!" Yang screamed at him through the speakers
"The long version is that we went to this casino because as you know no one can really beat me at card games" Sasuke began
"Yeah I know" Yang grumbled bitterly as she knew first hand that he always wins at card games
"So we started playing, then we found out this poker tournament was being held. The others voted me to play so I did" Sasuke said before grabbing his silk scarf off his shoulders
Sasuke then wrapped it around a thug who had his back to him as he wrapped his scarf around the thug's neck. Sasuke then tightly pulled on the scarf as he choked the thug into submission
"So while we were playing this arrogant brat who was playing kept on flaunting his money and the woman around him, that he probably bribed to be with him, so much it was getting annoying" Sasuke said as the man he was choking finally went limp as Sasuke unwrapped his scarf from the thug's neck as he casually draped it back on his shoulders
"So I decided to tell him to stop" Sasuke stated as he jumped when someone tried to tackle him as the man passed under him. When Sasuke landed he spun around with a kick and sent another guy flying back onto the ground with a thump
"Oh my Oum what did you do" Yang said exasperatedly
"All I did was tell him that his life has no meaning, that everything he does has no importance whatsoever. That when he dies an old man no one would care for him and he would be all alone with no one to love him because he is a worthless bastard that has to buy friends than to make real ones. That when he dies the only useful thing he'll do is be fertilizer in whatever empty ditch someone would throw him in" Sasuke said stepping to side and neck chop the man who tried to attack him as the assailant fell to the ground with a thud
". . Holy fucking shit man" Rhea said in the background of the call
"Then he got mad and tried to pathetically intimidate me. So I told him if the conversation were to continue like this I would cut off his fingers off one by one, forcing him to eat the severed flesh if he resisted. If he was still conscious after that then I'll start breaking bones, starting with the toes then legs then ribs up to his skull where I then said I would crush it like it was a watermelon and bring the remains to his sobbing mother before forcing her to eat it" Sasuke said with his voice devoid of emotions
.
.
.
". . . . . You honestly scare me sometimes Sasuke" Yang said after a moment
"You always did tell me to be more open towards people I've never met before remember" Sasuke said before grabbing a man's punch with his open hand before pulling the man towards him as he headbutted the guy before kicking the back of his knee as finished the guy off with a windmill kick to the face
"I didn't mean like that!" Yang exclaimed in exasperation
"Well be more specific next time" Sasuke said as another man came up to him and tried to attack him. Sasuke simply move to the side as he grabbed the man's sleeve and tossed him over to Akio. Akio turned to the flying man and picked up a pool cue. He then swung the pool cue and smack the thug out of the air with the fat end of the cue
Yang let out an audible sigh "What am I going to do with you" Yang said tiredly
"The same thing I've been doing when I'm around you, make sure you never do something stupid so you could stay safe" Sasuke replied casually before side stepping and karate chopping the back of some thug's neck
Yang let out a laugh "You really need to improve your flirting" Yang joked lightly as Sasuke smirked
"Well as much as I would love to continue this conversation" Sasuke said before ducking low three men with guns started firing upon him and the others "I really to finish this fight. We'll be back in Beacon in around ten or so minutes" Sasuke said before noticing two giant brutes coming towards the four of them, the left was carrying a large great axe while the other was carrying a large two handed blade like his Executioner blade ". . . Make it fifteen to twenty minutes. Talk to you later" Sasuke said before hanging up the call as he threw several kunai at the gunners as they instantly fell backwards
Sasuke then looked at the others who took down their portion of enemies. Surprisingly Jaune is still standing, albeit slightly bruised and tired but still standing. Ren was less hurt and more tired as his stamina really needs improving. Akio was doing fine, reckless as he was hurt as well but was in great condition to keep fighting. While he himself didn't even get touched during the fight as these men were pathetic to be compared to a rogue ninja in his time, even with the handicap he was giving them of only using aura
"Ren, Jaune take down the brute on the left. Akio your with me on the guy on the right" Sasuke commanded as the three others did as told
Akio ran to his side as the stared down the giant brute who was charging at them and swung his blade in an horizontal arc. Sasuke jumped up while Akio ducked down as Sasuke landed first hit by kicking the side of the brute's head while in the air. The brute jerked his head back he swung his right fist at Sasuke. Akio Shoulder charged into the brute as the larger man stumbled back and missed Sasuke as he landed on the ground with a crouch
Sasuke jumped up with legs bent before kicking forward into the brute's chest causing the larger man to stumble back from the impact. Akio ran up to the brute before jumping with his right fist raised before bringing it down on the brute face as he stumbled back more. Sasuke suddenly appeared behind him as he jumped onto his back and over his shoulders as Sasuke brought both his together in a conjoined fist as he brought them down onto the man's skull.
The brute was forced to take a knee as Akio appeared in front of him, gripping the thugs shoulders as he jerked his knee up, hitting the thug's chin. The brute's head was jerked back as Sasuke used Akio's shoulder as support as he vaulted over him with his feet planting firmly against the brute's face. The Brute was sent flying back, skidding on his back before pushing himself back up
The brute looked up, only to see Sasuke and Akio coming at him. The brute picked up his sword and tried to swing the blade if it wasn't for the fact Sasuke had thrown a kunai and hit his sword hand.
The two hunters in training raised their left and right fists respectively as they neared the brute. Their fists collided the same time with the brute's face as the larger man was knocked down with a loud thump as the ground shook with the force behind the attack
Sasuke let out a 'hn' as Akio grinned to himself as they looked over to see how the other two were doing
Jaune was leaning against the pool table that was on the side, taking deep breaths while Ren stood up, staring staring up the ceiling with slow deep breaths as their brute was on the ground between the two
The brute let out a groan of pain tried to push himself back up. Jaune saw this and grabbed the nearest, still intact pool cue as he broke it over the brute's head. The brute jerked his head back in pain for a moment before he fell down unconscious with a thump
After a moment of heavy breathing "Can we go home now" Jaune whined lightly
"I concur" Ren said bending a knee
"Think they'll let us back in here next time" Akio asked of his leader
"The only way they'll let us back here is if I buy this place. Which I won't, do you even know how much a casino cost?" Sasuke asked incredulously as the others looked at him with a blank look, mostly the look saying 'How should we know, you're the rich one'. Sasuke rolled his eye with a huff "Never mind, let's get back to Beacon. The others are waiting for us" Sasuke said as they walked over several bodies of the thugs they took down and out the exit
(Moments before)
Yang put her Scroll away as she let out a huff before she along with the others heard someone knock on the door
"Ruby open it, it's probably Itachi or Glynda" Yang asked of her sister who complied and walked over to the door
Ruby opened it to reveal it was the former "Hello Ruby, thank you all for watching my daughter" Itachi said with a warm smile
"Not a problem" Pyrrha said returning the smile
"Yeah, it was nice to watch over the kid" Rhea said as she picked Tsuki off the bed and carried her to Itachi
"I can tell you all had fun, she wouldn't fall asleep this early in the evening with all that boundless energy she has" Itachi mused as he took Tsuki from Rhea's arms into his arm as his daughter snuggled closer to his being. Itachi smiled before looking up when he noticed all of the girls expressions "What?" Itachi inquired
". . Well, she actually worn herself out when she activated her semblance" Ruby explained as she scratched her cheek
Itachi blinked and stared at them confusingly "She activated her semblance, so early?" Itachi inquired as he looked down at his daughter's sleeping face
"Yeah, though she fell asleep before she was about to do whatever it was to be" Blake pointed out as the others nodded
"Hm" Itachi let out a hum in thought
"Yeah, seeing Tsuki's eyes turn red for a bit was neat while it lasted" Ruby said innocently as Itachi's entire being froze as his expression turned hard
Itachi looked down at his daughter with a worrying expression as fear seemed to spread throughout his soul
"Oi, Itachi, you okay?" Yang said snapping her fingers in front of his face
Itachi jerked his head back before blinking as he put up a smile "Of course, I was just thinking about how much a Huntress she'll be when she grows up" Itachi lied through his teeth as the girl's smiled at the thought.
Except Ivy who from her spot raised a brow because she isn't sure if Itachi was lying or not. She could never get a read on the Uchiha's heart beats when they lie or not but she just knew he was lying for some reason
"Well anyways, I should get going. Thank you all again for watching her" Itachi said with a smile as the girls said goodbye as she left the room
Once Itachi closed the door to the room he frowned and looked back at his daughter with a very concerned look. Itachi then started walking away from the room as he knew that Ivy could hear him from outside the room
Once he outside the dorm building Itachi opened his daughter's eyelid to peer at her eye. It was the normal green iris that she always had but he couldn't help but feel a sense of foreboding. If what her eyes changed to is what he think they might be than something connected to aura then something happened to force her abilities to awaken
Which means someone attack his daughter enough to put fear into her soul, someone attacked his daughter without him knowing, someone attacked his daughter and thought they'll live when he finds them
Itachi's eyes glowed red as his sharingan flared in anger at what is going through his mind
"Who's the bastard that thinks they can scare my daughter and live" Itachi snarled in controlled rage before coming himself down when he heard his daughter let out a soft groan
Itachi's expression softened "It's alright, daddy's here" Itachi said planting a kiss on his daughter's head before looking up to see Glynda was walking towards him the airdocks
"There you are, I expected you to be back sooner. It's not like you to take your time like this?" Glynda pointed out as Itachi handed their daughter to her. Glynda gently took her daughter in her arms before noticing her husband's expression "What's wrong" Glynda said seriously as she only seen this expression on Itachi a few times, and that is when he outright mad
"Fire the babysitter" Itachi suddenly said
"What? Why would we-"
"Tsuki will be staying with at least one of us at all times, if we can't then I'll get my parents to look after, if not Sasuke, if not I'll take her to Kizuro where Shisui will watch her" Itachi said seriously
Glynda frowned, her husband wouldn't do something like this without a good reason "Itachi, what happened" Glynda said as she urged her husband to speak
Itachi clenched his fists "Something is happening, I don't know if it was recent or not but I don't think it's safe to keep Tsuki away from us until I'm certain nothing bad is happening" Itachi explained rationally as he entered the bullhead that was waiting for them. He held his hand out as he helped his wife get in the bullhead as the door closed behind her
"Itachi I'm going to need you to explain to me what is happening or I won't be able to help you" Glynda said seriously as they sat down next to each other as the Bullhead took off
"I honestly don't know what's happening. I just know that we need to be wary from now on" Itachi stated in a calm cool voice
Glynda frowned, she knew of what her husband was when he told her everything, but this is the first time she has seen him act like that. She was used to him being so full of life and a playful attitude towards most situations . This version of her husband, devoid of emotion with a stern face and in deep thought made her worry.
Itachi noticed and gave her a small reassuring smile "We'll be fine, I promise" Itachi said as he placed his hand on hers
Glynda stared at him for a moment before smiling as well "Okay" Glynda said softly as the ride down into Vale was peaceful.
Once the bullhead landed they got out and started walking home. That is if Itachi didn't feel there were eyes staring at the back of his head. Itachi's eyes turned crimson as he whipped his head around in the direction he felt. His eyes scanned the entire area in less than a second before he found it. Far away, a silhouette watching him through a scope of a rifle
The next second, he wasn't standing next to his wife and child as he ran straight at the man watching them. The man saw this and panicked before calming down as he moved to escape. This just showed the man was a professional, being able to stay calm under duress, and he will be under duress when Itachi grabs his throat in, three, two, one
The man covered in all black let out a strangled gasp as Itachi appeared in front of him and grabbed his throat. Itachi lifted him off the ground before slamming overhead onto the ground on his back while keeping pressure on the man's throat
"Why you were watching us, who sent you" Itachi demanded slowly
The man Itachi was choking just smirked at him as this made Itachi frown. That was when he jerked his head up and looked to his side to see someone watching his watcher that he currently subdued. The figure vanished into nothing as Itachi frowned, the man he was holding had no idea of his speed but now the other person does. Itachi internally cursed as this information would be given to whoever these people are working for
That was when Itachi looked at the man he was holding. Black leather armor, flexible yet hard that covered his entire body excluding his head that was covered by a black hood. several daggers on his body, more possibly hidden. The weapon that was tossed to the side during the small confrontation was a standard long range rifle, but the modifications of the scope and the barrel show this group has money to spend on trivial things like those
"Who are you people, why are you watching my family, did you think I wouldn't notice you" Itachi demanded as he put more pressure on the man's neck
The man just let out strangled laugh "You think haven't been keeping tabs on your family, we've been watching you lot for years, but we never did anything because of a promise. The promise was broken just recently so now you all are free game" The man said with a strangled laugh
"Who sent you!" Itachi demanded as his sharingan flared
The man just smiled "The demon of the hanging moon is coming for you all" The man said before he pulled out a false tooth with his tongue to reveal cyanide in it as he crushed it in between his teeth and swallowed it "You. Will. Fall" The man said shaking violently as his mouth foamed before falling limp
Itachi stayed silent for a moment before letting out a low chuckle "You think death will keep your secrets safe from me" Itachi said before he heard something, a beeping sound
Itachi before realizing it was coming from the man's body. Itachi's eyes widened as he tore the man's shirt off to reveal a device attached to his chest, right above his heart. The beeping soon started getting faster as Itachi's eyes widened as he jumped away from the corpse
instead of exploding like Itachi expected, the body incinerated to ash as they blew away in the wind. Itachi stared at the scorch mark on the rooftop where the man's corpse used to be before cursing under his breath
They needed the body for Sasuke to use the King of Hell to bring him back, now they don't have anything
Itachi shook his head as he went back to his wife and child. When he got back he found Glynda holding her riding crop in one hand while holding their daughter very tightly
When Glynda saw him coming she relaxed slightly, just slightly "What happened" Glynda inquired
"He killed himself and had a timer on his body to turn his body to ash once his heart stopped" Itachi explained calmly
Glynda bit her lip "Did you learn anything" Glynda asked
"No, nothing of importance at all" Itachi said somewhat bitterly that he couldn't get information from the man
"I'll be sure to call Tsuki's sitter tomorrow to let her know that her services are no longer needed" Glynda said as she put away her riding crop back in its place on the side of her boot
"Good" Itachi said before noticing his wife's concerned look as she gently pushed a strand of hair from their daughter's face "It's going to be alright, I'll make sure that nothing bad happens" Itachi said determinedly
Glynda simply nodded "I know" Glynda said before looking at her husband with a tired smile "You never let me down before" Glynda said as he returned the smile with a tired one himself
"Come on, let's go home. We'll start investigating in the morning" Itachi said as they continued to head back to their home
Itachi stopped for a moment as he looked back in the direction of where the man took his life and remembered what he said "What promise was broken" Itachi muttered before he continued to follow his wife back home
Mikoto's breath hitched as her body went tensed as she opened her eyes to look around her surroundings
"What's wrong with you?" Qrow asked as he was, of course, taking a swig from his flask
"It's nothing, just felt like something is off you know" Mikoto said tiredly as she ran her fingers through her hair
They were currently on a bullhead, heading back home. From what Mikoto can tell from her seat next to the window, they'll probably make it back home a little after midnight
"Usually get that way when my sister gets in contact with me" Qrow stated as Mikoto nodded
They were silent before Mikoto soon realized what Qrow just said "Hold on, you mean to tell me that you've been in contact with your sister. The mother of the child that is still looking for her and you never thought about telling your own niece that you've been talking to her" Mikoto said as she was shocked to hear this bit of information
"It's for the best, my sister is. . . Let's just say her methods aren't the best and leave it at that" Qrow said as he looked away from Mikoto's analytical gaze
Mikoto, after a moment of staring, let out a huff "I understand" Mikoto said solemnly with a nod before looking back up at him "Which is rare because usually I'll never take a word of a drunk" Mikoto said as Qrow deliberately took a swig of his flask. Mikoto rolled her eyes at her companion's actions before looking out the window with a solemn "But still, I just cant help but feel something is wrong" Mikoto said softly as she looked out the window to gaze up at the broken moon
Well there you have it, I hoped you all enjoyed this chapter
Also if you're wondering about me saying he can't be brought back, well the thing is I've been looking into the requirements of bringing someone back with the King's of Hell. All I got is that you need at least some part of their body to use, like at least a decent amount of hair or blood to use the reanimation jutsu then the King of Hell to make the person alive. So since there is only ash, that has blown in the wind, there is no way to bring that guy back
From what I can tell I'm planning on making the filler at least two more chapters, if you want you can ignore it and come back when I start the second volume
That's all I have to say, I may be busy with real life for a bit if what I think might happen. If so please be patient
With that out of the way, please leave a comment, review, PM, and I'll see you all later. Have a great day
