Hey there, Amigos, how's little Timmy!? You know what's good for getting cum stains out of altar boy robes? HOLY WATER! Didja miss me!?
I regret nothing. . .
Anyway, it's OK, Omega is here! Back after what I'm guessing was a two-month hiatus. Not sure I started working on chapters ahead of time after like a week of doing nothing. Now then, I hope you enjoy what I have prepared for you, cause it gone be badass! . .You would be able to tell how excited I am if I was saying this instead of writing it, I switch between accents like crazy. Moving onto the recommendation!
Blake, What Do Your Faunus Eyes See? by TobiasHawk1. Normally, I'd put the summary up after that, but the plot is fairly simple. It's just nonstop Bumblebee fluff for as far as the eye can see. Despite my love of over the top shonen fight scenes, I so do enjoy a cheesy Yuri romance from time to time(read all the time)
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the chapter!
"So. . .What are we doing here again?"
"Ugh! Don't tell me you forgot again!?"
"Oi! That is no way to speak to your future older sister!"
"Grrrrrrr!"
"Alright enough!" I shout at my sister and my girlfriend. This had been annoying enough without those two going at it.
The two of them had the decency to look sheepish after I reprimanded them. Blake just sighed as she facepalmed at her girlfriend's behavior.
It's been around six months since Cyan left Vale. Since then, everyone has been busting their butts to get stronger, if not to fight the baddies, then to make sure that we weren't a burden to 'The Gamer' we had all befriended. I'd like to think that we've been doing a good job, especially with Babylon's resources boosting our efforts.
Cyan did not skimp out on the tech for his training rooms. There were a ton of different ways to get stronger there like the Danger Room full of holographic(yet still pretty solid) enemies for us to fight. The library, which was Blake's favorite place to be still, was full of information and references on how to boost our powers. We didn't have the benefit of Cyan's 'Team Function', but we managed.
The 'Time Dilation' thing Cy had set up to all the floors of Babylon was so useful! We could get a week's training in the span of a day! Thanks to doing that so much, I was only a year younger than my peers now! I also grew during that time, rising to a nice 5'7". Although, I was still two years younger than my team and close friends. . .
"We're here to get rid of creature of Grimm that was rumored to hang around this area," I told my teammates with my 'Leader' voice.
I've gotten pretty mature over the six months since Cy left. Oddley enough, Babylon had it's own sewing floor for making new outfits. And yet, Cyan only really wore his duster jacket/t-shirt/jeans combo. Anyway, with some help from my loving girlfriends, I managed to update my outfit and it's looks pretty amazing, if I do say so myself.
I'm currrently wearing a white high-neck décolletage blouse covered by some straps that help me carry my backpack. I was still wearing my black and red skirt, but I replaced the cincher I had on before with an corset to cover my chest, which is now a C-Cup and I am very proud of it! My cloak has also changed somewhat with mom back, she helped me repair it and make some upgrades as well! I added some of these carbon fiber things to the lining, so it's as functional as it is stylish.
Instead of my stockings, I started wearing a pair of skin-tight, black jeans with my emblem in red on the outside of my left thigh. Attached to my thighs were identical black leather sheathes with red markings for my new twin weapons that were currently walking beside us.
So, during the six months we were training. Crescent Rose and Thayna wanted to be more helpful then they had been. Apparently, Thayna hadn't been the only one feeling down for once. I did want to improve my fighting style at the time, I wouldn't have survived during the Invasion if Penny and Weiss weren't helping me and that just wasn't good enough.
It was actually Thayna who came up with the idea to split their weapon form in half. We did a ton of research before hand along with a ton of planning. I spent the better part of a week over a drawing table surviving on cookies and coffee. But, it turned out to work perfectly! I, with my team's help, managed to seperate Crescent Rose into two parts and then build around the halves. Thankfully, since there were already two souls in my weapon Thayna and Crescent weren't harmed at all.
After I finished, they two halves were smaller than my original Crescent Rose was, but it meant I could go even faster. The half that Crescent Rose stayed in, I kept the original colors. The Thayna called home I reversed the colors, making it black with red markings.
This also meant that Thayna and Crescent got their own human bodies and they needed clothing to match them. Crescent turned out to be just barely smaller than Yang in body proportions, so we needed to make her new clothes. She decided on wearing an outfit similar to my current one, except with more red added to it. Thayna, on the other hand, was a bit smaller than me, being closer in size to Weiss. She wore an exact replica on Chrona's outfit from Soul Eater, that Cyan had lying around for some reason.
"Wait," Yang said with a slightly confused tone. "Shouldn't Cy's talismans be protecting the village?"
We hadn't heard anything from Cyan over the past months, except for that. Cyan, as he traveled all over Remnant, placing his 'Barrier Talismans' over small villages and cities all over the place. The first one he did was Mount Glenn, allowing humanity to start rebuilding their failed project.
"They do," I agree with her. I was about to explain why we were doing this anyway, but Weiss beat me to it.
"If we don't get rid of the Grimm, they may pile up enough to break through the barrier," Weiss explained in her usual 'lecturing' voice. "Cyan's talismans are weaker in smaller areas, so they wouldn't be able to stand up against a 'Level 10' invasion like Vale can."
I smile at my girlfriend lovingly, very happy with how much she'd change since our first (unfortunate) meeting. To start off, Weiss' choice in outfits had change rather drastically. Gone were the fancy-pansy dresses she always used to wear, now she wears a skin-tight, black leather catsuit. It did a very good job at accentuating her curves, small they may be. . . Moving on! She wore a black leather belt sheath for Myrtenaster along with a pair of black heels(I still can't figure out how she fights in those things). Covering all that was a pure white, faux-fur coat that went to her waist.
The biggest, and most adorable, change to my girlfriend were her fox features. Weiss has a pair of big, fluffy fox ears sitting on her head that twitched every once in a while in the most adorable way. . .Sorry, getting off track. She also has four six fox tails that swayed around her person. Apparently, Weiss' demon hadn't just changed a streak of color in her hair.
We found that out about a month after Cyan had left. Weiss had left the cuddle pile between the three of us to go to the bathroom. She caught sight of her new features in the mirror and screamed. After that, we were all incredibly supportive of what happened to her. Blake had found it particularly amusing in an ironic way.
The added features were actually very helpful with Weiss' new job as the COO of RTDDC. Dice had a lot more planned for his company than just as a dust company. To start off, he was hiring huntsmen and huntresses who need work to help him get dust from his 'Instant Dungeons'. Then, there was the fact that Dice took in, and took care of, anyone who needed help. Orphans, the elderly, Ex-miners for the SDC(which has taken a serious plunge in the past months), etc. Weiss' faunus features made the people she dealt with be at ease, since she still faced some problems from being the ex-daughter of Schnee. Which I find really stupid!
That was another way we kept track of Cyan too, despite never getting clear news. Our blue-haired friend would find orphans and other people in need and send them Dice's way to get them help.
"So," Yang started saying with her hands folded behind her head as she walked. "We're here to clean this up before it gets out of hand?"
"Seems like there's a brain under all that hair after all," Weiss snarked, good-naturedly.
"Oi!" Yang returned with fake-anger on her face. Despite how close the two of them were, they still argued with each other.
My sister hadn't changed very much in the past months. She was still slightly-hot headed, could punch someone threw several walls, and made it her mission in life to embarrass me and my girlfriends. Although, she has been training just as hard as the rest of us. Working on her demon powers as well as improving her ability with Kokyushin Karate. Yang's choice in clothes hasn't changed much either.
She wore very tight black jeans with a brown leather belt, along with a pair of black zip-up boots with some gold pieces of metal attached to them. Yang stole one of Cyan's spare dusters from his room and changed the color from black to a tan with golden yellow accents. Yang also added her emblem to the back in black. She still wore black gloves, but they went up to her elbows and were covered by browns cuffs, right below Ember Celica.
One thing that Yang had been able to do that the rest of us haven't was use the 'Angel' side of our powers. Cyan had said that we would be able to use our angels when we figured out our purpose in life. Yang just kinda unlocked it one day while we were training, just said that one second she didn't have it and the next she did. I have a suspicion of what she realized and I think it has to do with how she keeps looking at jewlery stores whenever we go into town.
Anyway, it's really cool whenever she uses her new powers! Although, she can't control them very well yet and it's led to a few wardrobe malfunctions during training.
"There, there," Blake pat Yang's head affectionately. My sister calmed instantly, Blake was magical like that.
Blake was, oddley enough, the one who took the training serious most out of us all. She had kinda gotten obssessed with Cyan's manga collection and has spent an enourmous time reading all of it. Blake's abilities were the most adaptable out of all of us, so that means she can take all those different techniques and abilities from those manga and put them in her own fighting style. Her new clothes reflected this.
To start off were her shoes, that are a pair of black boots that went halfway up her calves. The boots had knives in the soles that came out when she clicked her heels. Then, Blake wears a pair of black skinny jeans with two small holsters attached to each thigh. The holsters held shuriken and kunai respectively and she was scary good with those things; I know first hand from those times I accidently annoyed Blake when she was reading and she threw them at me. Blake wore the headband thingy that Cyan had given her for Christmas around her waist as a makeshift belt. Her top was pure white with no sleeves, Blake had two sets of ribbons crossed over each other making an 'X' shape on her chest.
Over all of this Blake had one of Cyan's duster jackets(he seriously has a lot of those things), this one was it's original pure black as it was already Blake's chosen color, but she did add her emblem to the back in purple. Although, Blake took off the hood of the jacket and replaced it with a high-reaching upturned-collar that went up to her nose. Blake also had a bunch of talismans(made by Weiss) attached to the insides of the sleeves that were full of a bunch of random things from weapons to books to cans of tuna.
We walked in silence for a while longer. Just as we entered a clearing, Weiss and Blake both stopped making the rest of us follow their lead. Their faunus ears were twitching like crazy and they were both slipping into battle mode.
"Something's here," they informed us at the same time.
We all immediately switch to battle mode. Crescent and Thayna shine with a bright white light and reappear in my hands as my faithful weapons. Weiss whips out Myrtenaster as her tails start waving about more energetically than before. Blake slips out Gambol Shroud from her sleeves and holds the two-parted weapon with ease. Yang unfolds Ember Celica and slams her fists together.
We stood back to back, waiting for whatever was coming. The trees and other foliage surrounding us made it hard to see anything, but it'd be easier to hear something coming so it balances out. This turned true when a bush at the opposite end of the clearing rustled as something came out of it. We all turned to catch sight of it.
It was obviously a creature of Grimm, but none that any of us had ever seen before. For one thing, it was shaped like a human. Pitch-black skin instead of fur or scales, but still covered in white armor. The armor was somewhat sparce with only a few pieces at it's legs and arms with a large piece resembling a chest plate. The weirdest part was it's face, it didn't have any eyes! There was just an oval-shaped, bone mask with no openings on it.
The new Grimm was just standing there, not making any movements whatsoever. It was kinda unsettling, since we were all prepared to fight and it wasn't even moving.
"The hell is that thing!?" Yang asks us as if we knew.
Yang's words seemed to force the Grimm into moving as it charged us with incredible speed. I fired shots from my twin scythes at the Grimm, they weren't as powerful as my old model, but they still got the job done. The Grimm just dodged all the incoming shots with ease.
Yang rushed the incoming Grimm with a fist drawn back. When she got close enough Yang punched the Grimm with the force of a truck(trust me, I've been on the recieving end of that enough times to know). Our eyes all widened with shock at what happened next, the Grimm actually punched back! Meeting Yang's fist with one of it's own. Even more surprising was that the Grimm didn't get blown away, it was holding steady against Yang's punch!
With a small growl, Yang punched the Grimm again. It still managed to meet the punch head-on with one of it's own. So, my sister punched it again, and again, and again. Every time the Grimm would just copy the way Yang attacked and counter it.
I saw, out of the corner of my eye, Blake melt into the shadows. The cat faunus was supposed to get around the opponent and attack from behind if any of us were having any trouble. I clutched my twin scythes tighter as I saw Yang switch from her usual 'Brawler' style to the more refined 'Kokyushin Karate' and the Grimm was still copying her!
Blake finally got into position and reappeared behind the Grimm with her katana in one hand and the cleaver, held in a reverse grip, in the other. She spun and slashed at the Grimm with both weapons, but then the Grimm did something that shocked all of us.
In the few seconds it took for Blake's swords to make impact, the Grimm's palms split open and ejected bones in the exact same shape as Blake's Gambol Shroud, although it was lot simpler than Blake's main weapon. Then, the Grimm spun in the same way, but opposite direction, as Blake was and completely countered my teammate's attack.
Okay. . . Apparently, we're fighting a Grimm that copy both our fighting styles and our weapons. . . Dammit, Cy where ever you are, I blame you for this!
Now, Blake and Yang were double-teaming the Grimm. As a team we worked very well together in battle, something that took a long time to get a handle of, but we were even better when we fought beside our partners. Part of it was the fact that we were opposites in fighting styles, Yang and I were very 'Area of effect' with our attacks, while Blake and Weiss were more precise in their movements.
Anyway, somehow that Grimm was keeping up with both Yang and Blake with those weird bone weapons. I realized that Yang and Blake were starting to show signs of tiring, but the Grimm didn't look any different than when the fight started, save for a few chips along the blades of it's weapons.
"Blake, Yang!" I call out to them.
My teammates recognize the signal to pull back and disengage from the Grimm they were fighting. The duo ran back to us without turning their backs towards the Grimm, which just stood there with it's weapons in hand.
As soon as Blake and Yang were by Weiss and me, the Grimm did something weird. . . Again. The bone weapons it had been using slid back into the Grimm's palms. I heard Blake mutter something about a 'Kimimaro'.
"Any ideas, Ruby?" Yang asks me with a serious expression on her face.
I analyze the situation to come up with a plan. There are four of us and one of those things, but it has shown that it can keep up with at least two of us at the same time and that's the max amount we can team up against something that size without interfering with one another. It can also copy our attacks as well as our weapons to an extent, seeing as it only copied Blake's blades and not the gun and/or the kusarigama function that seems to be it's limit.
It's fast enough to dodge bullets from Cresent and Thayna, which are much faster than the average 3,400 feet per second of most sniper rifles. It's also strong enough to match blows with Yang, who, last I checked, could one punch a Goliath. With all of the information presented and calculated, I only have one thing to say. . .
"Too easy," I mutter beneath my breath, just loud enough for my teammates to hear me.
I could see them grin out of the corner of my eye, a gesture I copied. After all the training we put ourselves through, this really was too easy. I point towards Yang and Blake.
"Yang, Blake," they both nodded in confirmation. "Acnologia."
My teammates nodded and stood to the side away from Weiss and I. Blake went into her demon form with the full Nekomata cloak that included a second tail. Blake's hand-like tails moved up to her head as the cat faunus crouched down with her knees nearly touching the grassy floor.
Yang stood a few feet away from her girlfriend with flames licking at her skin, barely contained within her body; red eyes shining like pools of blood in the sun. Right when Blake crouched down, Yang charged forward and jumped!
My sister landed right in Blake's tail-hands, which was immediatly followed by Blake boosting Yang straight into the sky. Yang added in Ember Celica's shotgun shots to boost her air time with how much power was into that, Yang disappeared into the skyline for the moment.
I immediatly turned to Weiss.
"Kurama," I stated simply, causing my girlfriend to scowl slightly.
She hated this team-attack, 'cause it meant I was on my own for a little bit. I sometimes did the attack just so I could see that adorable pout on her face.
With a small grin, I moved towards the Grimm with my scythes in hand. Oddley enough, the Grimm had just been standing there the entire time, watching us. I decide to 'kill first, and ask questions later' as I stopped ten feet from where the Grimm was standing. As soon as my feet stopped, dozens of Weiss' barrier glyphs trapped the Grimm and I within a glowing white dome of snowflakes.
After all that training, when Weiss could focus solely on using her glyphs they became practically unbreakable. So, neither I nor the Grim were getting out of this without her sayso. With my grin growing wider, I hold Cresent Rose across my chest and Thayna in a reverse-grip across my back. Then, I dash forward with as much speed as I could muster which made me go airborn. I used my sniper rounds to add a bit of rotation to my already impressive speed.
The world around me turned into one gigantic blur; the only thing that told me I had hit the Grimm with the a pull of resistance coming from the blade's of my scythes. When my still-blurred vision became pure white, I knew to spin around and plant my feet against Weiss' barrier Glyph, then push off once more.
This was the purpose of the Glyphs was for. It wasn't for keeping the opponent in , although it did help in that, it was more about keeping me in.
When I went for the abosolute fastest speed I could go, my vision got incredibly distorted. I was getting better at seeing things at high speeds, but my vision was still pretty blurred. So, in order to avoid friendly-fire and maximize damage, we came up with this team attack. I just kept bouncing off the walls until my opponent was out of the fight or my time to stall was over. Speaking of. . .
"RUBY! NOW!"
The sound of Weiss' voice plus the disappearance of white in my blurred vision told me that the barriers were down and that I needed to get far away from the Grimm. Slowing down enough for my vision to return to normal, I spotted Weiss and Blake and dashed over to them.
Looking back to the Grimm, the creature had the universal sign of confusion on it's faceless head, that being tilting it's head to the side slightly. I just grinned and pointed a singular finger skywards. If the Grimm had any facial expression at all it would've been very confused as it looked straight up.
My teammates and I followed that line of sight, making me grin wider at what we all saw. High in the sky, but descending at a very fast pace, was my sister, Yang Xiao Long. Her eyes were their bright bloody-red they became when she used her abilities and her right fist was drawn back in preparation for a punch. Said fist was glowing with golden flames in the shape of a dragon's head. On top of all of that, sprouting from her shoulder blades was a set of dragon wings made of golden fire.
That's Yang's Angel Form in action. Apparently, it's a god from a place called 'China' back in Cyan's home world that was called 'Kohryu'. The yellow dragon in english, pretty accurate thing to describe my sister. Yang nicknamed her angel 'Ko-Ree', Weiss facepalmed, but I thought it was a pretty cute name! Anyway, when she uses her Angel Form Yang can fly(more glide) through the air, her flames burn for a really long time, and she gets a really strong!
"RYUSEI-GUN!"
BOOM!
The Grimm didn't even have time to react as Yang's airborn punch hit it right on top of it's head in an explosion of golden flame. Despite how close we were to the blast, my teammates and I were completely fine; 'Cause my girlfriend is amazing!
As the smoke cleared from the giant explosion my sister caused, I saw two things. One, was my sister grinning cockily in a large crater and the other, was the Grimm in multiple, slowly-dissolving pieces on the ground.
"Well, that was easy!" Yang smiles widely as we all look at her with exasperated fondness.
"Yes, it was," Weiss agreed with a shake of her head, which made her ears move in the most adorable way. "Now can we get ou-"
Weiss stopped, along with all of us, when the sound of laughter flooded the clearing we were in.
"Where's that coming from?" I ask as I look around in confusion.
"It sounds familiar," Weiss says with confusion.
"It's coming from there," Blake points to the head of the 'dead' Grimm, a Grimm that was reforming and changing shape.
"No way. . ," Yang states numbly as it finally hit all of us what that laughter reminded us of, who it reminded us of.
As the laughter grew louder and louder and the pieces of the Grimm kept reforming, they finally came together into a singular shape. A very familiar shape.
Blake combat boots covered his feet. Dirty, dark-blue jeans covered his legs, along with a blue D-ring belt around his waist. A bare torso except for a black, poncho-like thing that looked like it used to be a cloak with how torn it was. A black bandanna tied around his face, covering his blue-eyes from our sight. Bright blue hair that reached his upper back and, on top of it all, a shit-eating grin on his face!
Cyan F., fucking, Matu!
"Looks like you guys really got strong," he tells us happily, while we're all deciding on either hugging him or punching him.
"So. . . Didja miss me?"
We're back, baby! How's this for a Christmas present!? I really hope you enjoyed Cyan's return, cause I loved writing it! Now, onto the footnotes!
Blake's modified cloak is modeled after an Akatsuki cloak without any of the red on it, just pure black. The team attacks are kinda clever, in my humble opinion. Acnologia is fairly easy to explain, he's a black dragon, the attack involves Blake, who represents the black in that situation, and Yang brings the dragon, since it involves her Angel powers. Kurama is the really clever one, the one I'm most proud of. Part of it is the true name of the Kyuubi from Naruto to represent Weiss, but it's the same name of Kurama from the series Yu Yu Hakusho, who could control plants, I.E. representing Ruby Rose. Oh, and Ruby's new twin scythes are supposed to look like a set of oversized Kusarigama. Anything you felt I forgot, feel free to ask me, I love answering questions.
Also, please tell me how I did writing the chapter in Ruby's POV. I feel I did pretty good, but you can never really tell until you get a second opinion.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed and I'll see you next time, OK is out!
