AN-

The next few have a special form of communication. I think that faunus can communicate like animals and so anything in brackets[like this] only faunus can understand. This is how the baby will talk with the other characters.

Blake-

This kid is going to be the death of me.

When we accepted the mission we didn't realise that the kid couldn't walk or even crawl. Or that she hadn't had a bath in forever. When we got to our room I immediately asked Ruby to come help me in the bathroom.

"Why do you need help?" Ruby asked me.

"Damion sent me a message, said that the kid smells like she hasn't been washed in a while," I told her.

"Oh, so are we going to give her one?"

"Yep, and trust me when I say have your aura up at all times. Faunus babies automatically have some access to their aura and so they can bite and cut through with their claws."

"Wait, you have claws?"

"Yeah, but I keep them trimmed to not cut people. I should also make sure that the girl's are trimmed. I can't do it to the baby because it is up to the parents."

"Blake, Ruby. Take her please," Damion said from the main room.

"I got her," I said, taking the little girl from him.

Mew?[Kin?] she mewed looking at me.

[Not kin] I growled back at her.

"Um, how am I understanding what you two are saying?" Damion asked.

"Oh yeah, faunus have a way of communication. I guess your mind also changed. You should try to talk to the girls in it, your way will be mostly growls and howls, maybe a few barks," I guessed.

Mrow![KIN!]

Hiss, mew![No, mine] Hannah added.

The baby started crying.

Grr.[Stop] Damion growled at Hannah.

Mrrew.[Sorry]

"That was, fun. Get her a bath, I'll keep these two in check," he said pointing to the one on the bed.

"Thanks."

"So, what do we need to do?"

"First, we'll do her hair. I'll need you to fold her ears down, she can't control them yet."

"What? I can't force them down, I don't want to hurt her."

"Ruby, you won't, you just need to be gentle. The holes in her ear are just as big as mine, so think what would happen if water would get in there."

"I suppose, ow," she said as the little girl scratched Ruby with her claws. "She got through my aura!"

"Well, that can happen." Mrow! [Don't harm]

Hmrr, wrow[Sorry, water]

"What are you two doing?"

"Talking. She says sorry, the water scared her."

"Ok," Ruby said weirded out.

Ruby held her ears down as I washed her hair and body quickly.

Mew! [Kin, Hungry]

[Not kin] I growled back.

"What are you two arguing about?" Ruby asked.

"She keeps calling me kin, to her that means family."

"Oh, and you don't want her calling you that why?"

"Because, canine and feline faunus form close connections at an early age, these can rewrite her connections to her actual parents," Damion said watching the girls sleep.

"How?"

"Wore them out. Will make the trip easier."

"I meant how did you know that?"

"Simple, I read a book on faunus on my scroll."

Hisss[Wolf, enemy] Damion and I shared a quick glance both knowing what she said and started giggling.

"Oh no, this is going to be a thing now, isn't it?" Ruby asked.

"Well, she just said that the wolf is her enemy."

"Oh, that is funny. No, wolf is a friend."

Mrew![Foe, kin] she mewed looking at Damion and then me.

Grrrr[Not foe, not kin] I growled.

Yip [Friend?] Damion asked, holding his hand out.

She sniffed his hand for a moment, and then nugged him, mew [Friend].

"Well, I think even I could tell what she said," Ruby said, leaning on my shoulder.

"Can all passengers please go to their rooms please," the intercom said before the ship jerked suddenly.

"You two stay here, I'm going to go see what's wrong," Damion said.

"I'll go too just in case," I said.

"No, I need you to stay here, if I need help I'll let you know."

"Fine."

Damion-

I went up to the bridge and went up to the captain.

"What's the matter?"

"Nothing, just go to your cabin," he said.

"I'm a third year at Beacon, and top of my class too," I said.

"Oh, well grim is nearing us, we can't tell what kind," he said, showing me the radar.

"Smells, weird, almost like a … crap. It's a dragon type grim. I'm guessing it can both fly and swim, do you have any anti-grim weapons?"

"Some cannons, but we don't have too many shots."

"Alright, ready them, you'll know when to take the shot, don't worry about me," I said. I hope this won't be a bad idea.

I went out and the grim chose to show itself at that moment. I then activated my lighting scythe and sliced the grim and while it was paralized I wrapped its wings with my tendrils and kept it from flying. The captain then fired right at the chest destroying the grim completely.

"What was that?" Blake asked when I walked in.

"Nothing too bad, just a water dragon," I said.

"What?!" Her and Ruby asked at once, this caused the baby to start crying.

"The ship had anti-grim cannons and I just held it still."

"Oh, that makes more sense."

The rest of the trip was peaceful. When we got to Menagerie I took the baby and after walking the docks for a bit I caught the scent of Rose and another flower, can't tell what kind though. I walked up to the couple. The woman was small and had two cat ears, she also looked a bit like Blake. The ban was tall and was very muscular, his chest was showing with hair.

"Um, excuse me, my name is Damion and I was sent here from Beacon," I said approaching them.

"Oh, thank goodness you have Basete," the woman said, taking the baby from me.

"Thank you young man," the father said.

"I have a question, I understand you chose rose because my last name, what is the other flower, and why did you choose it?"

"Oh, it's a belladonna flower, that's our last name," the woman said.

"Oh, ok," I said connecting the dots. "I want you to meet my teammates that came with me, they helped me out with her."

"Of course, we would love to," she said. I led them to where I left the girls and then I saw where they went, both were facing away.

"Hey, I want you guys to meet the kids parents," I called out.

"Oh, hellllllll," Blake started before she saw who was with me, confirming my theory.

"Blake?" the man asked.

"D-dad, it's been a while. That's why she called me kin," Blake said noticing the baby sleeping in her mothers arms.

"Ha, I guess you got to meet your baby sister. So, Beacon huh?"

"Ghira, you should ask who her um, oh," her mother said, probably realizing that Ruby is marked as Blake's mate.

"Oh, yes. Mom, dad, I want you to meet my girlfriend, Ruby. And you already met her half-brother Damion," Blake said.

"It's nice to meet you, and she isn't a faunus right or is she hiding her trait?" Ghira asked.

"No, she's human."

"Hi, it's nice to meet you," Ruby said.

"Mommy, who are these people?" Hannah asked from behind Ruby's leg.

"Oh, um, who do we have over here?" Blake's mom asked.

"This is Hannah, and Aki is the one trying to hide behind Blake, they're my adopted daughters. I saved them from being sold to followers of the bad group of the White Fang," Ruby said.

"Oh, that's noble of you. My name is Kali by the way," the woman said.

"So, you must be a first year or something right?" Ghira guessed.

"Actually, I was let into Beacon two years early. I'm the leader of team RWBY. Blake is my sister Yang's partner."

"Wait, isn't that Weiss Schnee's team?" her father asked.

"Yes, she's my partner. And no she isn't like her father."

"What about you Damion?"

"Oh, I'm the last of my team, I just join Ruby's team for team work."

"Oh, what happened to the last of your team?" he asked.

"Ghira, it might be sensitive," Kali said, hitting her husband.

"It's fine. During the Attack on Vale they were killed fighting grim, they were doing what they loved to do," I said with a small smile.

"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that," she said.

"I got over it the same night, I killed ninety grim, thirty each, it was our deal," I said smiling at the memory of us making the deal.

"Well, why don't we go home, your father took the day off because we thought we were just going to see one of our daughters, but got both instead," Kali said walking towards the town proper.

"You live here?!" Ruby exclaimed when we got to her house. Realistically it's more of a mansion than a house.

"Well, my father is the chief," Blake said.

"Alright princess," I joked.

"Ugh, don't please," Blake whined.

"I have to do a little, Yang and I missed a lot of time making jokes about you being the princess of your village."

"Well, come on in, I'll show you to your rooms, they're right next to Blake's." Ghira said, showing us to our rooms. It went Blake's(and Ruby's), the girls, and then mine.

AN-

I'm alive! Sorry about the lack of chapters for a while. It was a combination of writer's block, not enough time, and school being dumb.

I will try to work on this one, but it will most likely end within a few chapters. However, at the end there will be big news revealed. I will be working on my other fic as well.
