Yellow Dragon, Black Cat, Red Spider
Man what a rough night, after fighting off against two Maidens and going up against Venom within my mind I was more than ready for a good nights sleep once my head touched the pillow. When I woke up the next morning I noticed that I was still in my Iron Spider armor from my battle in the Vault, I felt a weight on my right side and I was a little surprised to see Blake sleeping next to me, she looked so comfortable that I wanted to hold her, but when I tried I felt a weight on my left side, when I turned to look I wasn't prepared to see Yang doing the same.
Carlos: ( What's going on here?! What the heck happened last night?! )
I have seen enough anime back home so I know what to do in a situation like this. First of all do not, under any circumstance, allow myself to freak out. Second, think carefully about what happened last night before I jump to any weird conclusions.
Carlos: ( Okay so what happened last night? I fought two Maidens. Removed the curse by beating Venom. Finally I went to bed. Am I missing anything? )
I began to feel Blake stir, when she woke up I expected her to get mad at me or start interrogating me on why Yang was cuddled up to me, instead she simply snuggled closer and kissed me on the cheek.
Blake: Good morning, did you sleep well?
Carlos: Y-Yeah, but Blake what exactly happened last night?
Blake: What do you mean?
Carlos: I mean why is Yang cuddling up to me, and how come you aren't mad right now?
Blake: Oh that, well she asked if it was okay and I said yes. Besides didn't she do this a lot when you were staying with here at her house?
Carlos: Yeah she did but that's not the point. Blake did something happen between you two last night?
Blake: Kind of. Let me explain.
( Flashback- Last night )
While both Ruby and Jaune carried me to one of the spare bedrooms to get some rest after everything that happened earlier, both Blake and Yang decided to stay outside for a little while longer to talk about the current situation between them.
Blake: Are you in love with him? I want you to be honest with me.
Yang could only close her eyes as she thought back over her time that she spent with me when I was recuperating, after everything that happened between us as well as when we first met she finally confirmed her own feelings about me. She looked at Blake straight in the eyes and gave her an honest answer.
Yang: I am Blake. I am in love with Carlos, I know I shouldn't be but it's the truth. I know he means everything to you but I can honestly say that he also means everything to me.
Blake wasn't really sure how to respond. While she was thankful that Yang was telling her the truth rather than trying to lie to her there was still a part of her that was surprised all the same.
Blake: Tell me, when did you start to fall for him?
Yang: If I had to guess, I would say it was around the time after we stopped that Grimm invasion after our mission at Mountain Glenn. At first I only saw him as a friend, we were close but in a platonic way, we goofed around and hung out, it was great being friends with him.
She took a moment to bring out her necklace with the dragon charm at the end of it. She still remembered her reaction from that day as she was so happy to receive her gift.
Yang: At first I was simply happy with him being my best friend. When we learned that the two of you got together I couldn't be any happier to learn that my two closest friends found one another and made each other happy. Over time though those thoughts began to change, and a small part of me wished he would look at me like that if only for a moment.
Blake: Is that why you never brought it up before, you were more concerned about our happiness over yours?
Yang: Of course I was. Even though I began to have feelings for him I knew it was wrong for me to try and take him away from you. But after you left us after Beacon fell, after leaving us behind after we promised one another that we would always be there for each other, I just felt so broken. I felt so alone that I wasn't sure if I could ever return to the person I used to be. When Carlos finally woke up I was so happy that he came back to us and I didn't want to lose him again. I'm sure he explained everything to you.
Blake: He did. He waited until we were alone and he told me everything. How you would always be by his side, how you did everything you could to comfort him when he had his nightmares, and also about when you kissed him.
That was what Yang was mostly worried about, from the way Blake spoke it seemed that she wasn't angry, since she had time to think about it she was more focused on getting answers rather than being upset.
Yang: Blake, I know that nothing I say or do will ever change your mind about what happened. No matter how you look at it I did go behind your back and went after your boyfriend. I can apologize over and over again for the rest of my life and you have every right not to forgive me, but at the very least I want you to understand that I didn't do this to hurt you. I did this because I wanted him to know that you weren't the only one who is in love with him. I love him as much as you do and nothing is going to change that.
All Blake could see in Yang's eyes was her complete honesty, she could easily hear it in her voice that everything she said was the truth.
Blake: All right then. If that's how you truly feel about him than I have no right to stop you.
Yang: What do you mean?
Blake: I wanted to see if you were going to be completely honest me. If you were going to lie to me I wanted to find out if you were truly going to do so or if you were just lying to yourself. I can tell that he means as much to you as he does to me, so I propose a compromise.
Yang: What kind of compromise?
Blake: I've been thinking about this since he told me about what happened between you two. Now that I've heard what you had to say I think we can make this work, what would you think about the two of us sharing him?
Yang: WHAT?! Blake are you being serious, you want the two of us to be his girlfriends?
Blake: It's like I said, he means a lot to the two of us and I don't think either of us are willing to hurt the other any more than we've already done. If we did that than Carlos would be brought into the middle of all of it and I don't want to put him in that position. So rather than that I think it would be best if we both had him that way everyone is happy.
( Timeskip- Present Day )
Carlos: And what happened next?
Suddenly I felt two arms wrap around my midsection as Yang woke up.
Yang: I said yes and now here we are. Morning cutie~.
As Yang kissed my cheek I felt completely embarrassed, in all honesty I thought I was still dreaming since there is no possible way for me to have two girlfriends. I am not some anime protagonist so by that logic there is no way I am this lucky.
Blake: Is everything alright? You look a bit flustered.
Carlos: Well can you really blame me? I must be dreaming right now.
Yang: If you mean that this is a dream come true, than I couldn't agree more.
Carlos: I gotta ask, are the two of you alright with this? I don't want you to think I might care about one more than the other.
Blake: You don't need to worry about that, I wouldn't have suggested this if Yang didn't truly care about you. After everything she told me I knew it wouldn't be right if I didn't give her a chance to be happy too.
Yang: Besides it's like I told you that night you left, I really do love you and I want the chance to show you.
I looked between the two of them and I knew that this what they wanted. Even if I felt undeserving I couldn't deny their feelings towards me.
Carlos: Alright, if the two of you are willing to give this a chance than I agree. I just hope I can make the both of you happy.
Blake/Yang: We know you will.
As they both gave me one last kiss they left the room so I could change, apparently Kali came earlier this morning to drop off my bag that brought with me to Menagerie from the ship, I made my way towards the bathroom as I hopped into the shower and changed into a fresh set of clothes. Just as I was about to put on my shirt I took a look at my back and sure enough Venom's mark was finally gone. I breathed a sight of relief as I was glad I finally got rid of him, even if it wasn't the actual Venom I was not going to miss him any time soon. After getting changed I was about to brush my teeth when I noticed that some of my teeth became fangs.
Carlos: Cool, I guess there's no hiding the fact I'm a Faunus now.
Once I was dressed in a pair of shoes, dark purple jeans, a black t-shirt with a white long sleeve shirt underneath I made my way to the dining area where everyone else was about to start having breakfast.
Carlos: Hope you guys weren't planning on starting without me.
As we greeted one another and began eating I became aware of all the stares I was getting. I figured that if Madame Web told them about me and Jonathan being from another world than it was bound to raise some questions. Once we finished eating we decided to go to the living room as I prepared to answer whatever they wanted to know.
Carlos: Alright everyone, if you have anything you want to ask me than go right ahead. I promise I will answer to the best of my abilities unless it's something I'm not comfortable with.
They all looked at one another wondering who was going to go first. Ruby nervously raised her hand as I prepared myself for her question.
Ruby: Was what Madame Web told us all true? Are you guys really from another dimension and everything you know about us is just fictional?
I was afraid someone was going to ask about that, ever since I came here to Remnant I have had time to really think this one over so hopefully my answer would satisfy them.
Carlos: ( sigh ) I had a feeling someone was going to ask that. To answer your first question, yes both Jonathan and myself are from another dimension, more specifically we come from a world known as Earth. I'm pretty sure Madame Web went over a few things about our lives there correct?
They all nodded as I continued.
Carlos: Alright, as for the second one I did believe this world was originally fictional, but over time I started to think that may no longer be the case.
Weiss: What do you mean?
Carlos: For one thing, when I was brought here I had a brief encounter with the original Maidens. They told me that this worlds future was different than what it was supposed to be and that was why the two of us were brought here.
Qrow: I'm guessing it was something we want to avoid at all costs right?
Carlos: From what I was told yes. I could only guess that in this particular timeline everything changes and in the end Salem and her forces are victorious in conquering the world. Whether or not things stayed the same until a certain point I can't say for certain.
Blake: Actually Madame Web did go over a few examples on how things might have gone if you weren't here.
They quickly explained how Blake would've been hospitalized during the fight at the docks and how the first Grimm invasion was going to be a success originally.
Carlos: Any other questions?
Jaune: Did you know that Pyhrra was going to be the next Fall Maiden?
Carlos: Yes, that's why I trained so hard. I wanted to be strong enough to stop our enemies before we reached that point. I even tried to expose Cinder and her team after we stopped the Grimm after our first mission. Jonathan said that without any evidence there was no point and all we could do was prepare ourselves as best as possible.
While Jaune wasn't particularly happy to think about Pyhrra's death, he did understand that we could only do so much with what little we had to work with. The next and last person to ask me a question was the newest member of our group Oscar Pine, a.k.a. Ozpin.
Oscar: How much do you know about what we're up against?
Carlos: To be perfectly honest my knowledge of what lies ahead is starting to reach its end. I only got to know your story up to a certain point, after that I'm in the same situation as everyone else. I do know that our next step is to take the relic to Atlas and I know we'll run into some help along the way. Specifically we'll run into someone that can help Ruby master her power.
Ruby: Are you talking about my silver eyes?
Carlos: Yes, the person I'm talking about is a former silver eyed warrior named Maria Calavera. She'll be able to help you grasp the abilities you inherited from your mother.
After that everyone agreed that this was enough for now and decided to spend the day just relaxing, we still had time to prepare before we needed to head out so I decided to walk around and see the city, just as I was about to leave the house I heard Yang calling me.
Yang: Where are you going?
Carlos: I was just going for a walk, I wanted some time to clear my head.
Yang: Well can I join you, this might be a good time for us to have a little date together.
Ruby/Weiss: DATE?!
We turned around and saw both Ruby and Weiss looking at us in complete surprise.
Weiss: I thought you were dating Blake, how could you go out with Yang behind her back!
Carlos: Weiss calm down it's not what you think.
Yang: Yeah don't worry guys, Blake said that it was alright for the both of us to be his girlfriend so what's wrong with us going on a little date?
Ruby: Wait a sec, you and Blake are dating him?
Yang: Yep.
Ruby: This. Is. Great!
Carlos: Huh?
Ruby: If you two are dating than that means you guys will get married and Carlos will be my big brother!
Carlos: Wait a sec Ruby, don't you think you're reading too much into this?
Yang: Aww what's wrong honey? Don't you want to marry me someday?
I knew she was messing with me, but I couldn't help but get embarrassed.
Ruby: Wait if that's true, than if Carlos also marries Blake than she becomes my new big sister!
Weiss: Ruby I think you need to settle down.
Ruby: Too late! I better get started on planning the wedding! Can we be your maids of honor?
If it wasn't for Yang calming her down I probably would have passed out from embarrassment right then and there. As Yang and I walked through the city she began to wrap her arm around mine as we took in the sights. As we continued to enjoy our time together we ended up on a hill side overlooking part of the city. The two of us relaxed underneath a large tree as Yang let me use her lap as a pillow while she played with my hair.
Yang: This is nice huh.
Carlos: Yeah, I have to admit I don't feel as nervous about this as I thought I would.
Yang: Why would you be nervous, you've been on a date before.
Carlos: I know, but I've never been on a date with you.
Yang: Wow, I never knew you were a romantic.
Carlos: Thanks.
Yang: Hey can I ask you something?
Carlos: Yeah.
Yang: I know that you used to be human, and that you didn't have any powers until you came here. What was like when you discovered your abilities, does it scare you?
Carlos: Not really. For so long I've dreamed about what it would be like to be like Spider-Man. He inspired me to be more than what I was. When I learned that I could do what he does, it just felt right.
Yang: If you ask me, you are a worthy successor to the name.
Carlos: Thank you, that means a lot to me.
She leaned down to kiss me on the lips, it was so nice and sweet that it was as if time stood still. When we separated we decided to head back to the house as everyone was doing their own thing. Unfortunately Ruby kept going on about wedding ideas so Yang decided to humor her to keep her busy. As for me I went back to my room to inspect my weapons as Blake came over to check up on me.
Blake: Hey, how was your date with Yang?
Carlos: It was nice, we had a good time.
As Blake kept me company we began talking about my life on Earth, she was pretty surprised to learn all the differences between our worlds such as there being no Grimm or Faunus back home.
Blake: Do you miss them? Your friends and family back home?
Carlos: I do, I know we gave up the chance to ever see them again but as long as they're doing alright than I know we have no regrets. You guys are my family too, I won't turn my back on you guys.
As the day progressed we all knew that the battles ahead would become tougher. Now that my secrets were out in the open I could only hope to grow closer to my friends and show them I am going to fight with all my strength. No matter what happens from here on out I will do all I can to help us make it through to the end. Whatever life holds in store for me I will never forget these words; With great power, comes great responsibility. This is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider-Man.
