DDK here, now I'll be honest with you all. I've had meant to put up this short one-shot on March 20th, but when the Volume 8 episode had came out on the day and I've watch it...I was in a mix of sadness and upset over what had happened at the end that put me in a brooding mood for the entire week. It was only until I saw the last episode that came out that I had to suck it up and put the final touch for this one. And after that and reading over this I was put in a better mood, and hope this may help lift some RWBY fans spirits up just a little bit.
Also had to adjust some editing but hopefully I gotten them fixed by then
DDK does not own RWBY
Ruby and Yang were currently in team RWBY's room at Beacon, with exams for the first semester being over the students were given a week off before the start of the second semester in which students were off to do who knows what. Both of their partners, Weiss and Blake, were spending time together to start over their friendship after dealing with Roman Torchwick and the White Fang. Especially for their faunus teammate wanting to make up for what she said to the Schnee girl while the heiress herself wanted to make amends so both girls would be out for most of the day, which was fine with the other half of the team since this was the chance for both sisters to hang out. What would make it better, however, was that Ruby and Yang gotten a text message on their scrolls from their Aunty Qrowe…whom said she was in Vale an wanted to know if they want to hang out for the day.
"Ah Yang! Aren't you excited? We get to hang out with Aunty Qrowe for the whole day, and she's coming here at the best school. Ever!" Ruby was squealing out in joy as she was on top of her 'bunk bed' that swung a little due to her movement, all while her older sister was laying on hers with a scroll in hand that she was browsing through.
"I know Rubes, true that a whole day with her can be...stressful. But I'm really looking forward to it." Yang replied, just like her baby sister the blonde girl was really looking forward to seeing her Aunt again. Maybe next time she'll get to ask Qrowella to take her to those bars with the cute waiters the older woman mentioned, so long as Yang promise to be well behaved an not wreck the place like at Juniors.
" I hope she'll get here soon, the new Spruce Willis just recently came out and I wanna go early before they ran out of tickets." her younger sister said as she sat at the edge of her bed with feet dangling in mid air.
"Don't worry Ruby, I'm sure Qrowe will be here before you know it." the blonde girl told her in reassurance, after all any day to spend with Qrowella Branwen is a pretty good day.
Meanwhile
Qrowella Branwen was not having a good day, first off she had once again failed to track down Ambers attackers to locate the other half of the stolen maiden powers, then instead of taking a transport back to Vale she decided to save herself some lien an just fly there in her crow form that seem okay at first...until a thunderstorm came and she nearly gotten strike by lightning. At times like this she'd wish she shared Raven's semblance when the twins were born like the Schnee's, anyways right as soon as she arrived in the kingdom a day later Qrowella had send a message to Ozpin that she'll be taking the day off and sent a message to nieces that she will be coming over to take them to hang out for some family bonding time.
However, when she had arrived at Beacon and made her way to the dormitory where the girls were staying at Qrowe's semblance had suddenly decided act like a douche again, normally when this happen it would be at random that affect her or those around her. Such as when a tree branch would suddenly break an fallen on top of her, or when some students who use dust would exploded for reasons unknown, and at worse time...Qrowe nearly chokes herself to death when her cape had gotten snagged by a random door or nail that wraps and tug hard around her neck. However this time was different, because one moment Qrowe was walking in the hall getting close to RWBY's room yet the next moment all of a sudden her changing ability acted up of turning her into a crow again. Not only that, but some random first year student with a huge mace happen to stumble upon her and thought it would be 'fun' by attempting to crush her bird form with said mace like she was some Nevermore. She gotten payback on the punk by lashing out her sharp talons to his face before she flew off, and once finding a secluded spot to change back Qrowella ran into another problem.
See when she had tried to change back it was only about half way, first time she gotten her human body but with wings for arms, next up she had change to a larger version of her avian form with her long human legs attach, and finally to her current condition with her head attach to a small body of a crow that Qrowella had to fight against the gravity to steady herself. Otherwise, with great distaste, she admits that this needed to be fixed and only one man who could help her which brings us to the present time in his office as the man sat at his chair by a desk.
"And, you're sure you're not happy with this? It is certainly a good look for you, Qrowe." Professor Ozpin, Headmaster of Beacon, stated with amusement in his tone as Qrowella was standing on top his desk, with her red eyes glaring at him.
"Do I look like I'm happy, Oz? It took me a half hour just to fly up here, struggling against gravity from falling, and waited until Glynda left. So yes, very." she told him with her tone of annoyance, Qrowe was running low on time and the girls would wonder if she was drunk somewhere an forgotten bout them. Which she would 'never' do, when it comes to her nieces Qrowella would always hold off from drinking so that she could remain sober as she spend time with either Ruby, Yang, or both at the same time.
"Well, alright then if you insist." Ozpin spoke as he would take his cane out, with the tip glowing abit, then wave it around before taping the end onto Qrowella's forehead that she would soon turn into a poof of smoke. When it cleared out the headmaster had cup his own chin as he nodded in approval, "Ah yes, much better now. Tell me Qrowe, how are you feeling?" he questioned the huntress.
"*squawk squawk...squawk?*" Qrowella said in puzzled as she started running her hands to feel herself, so far everything seem perfectly normal. Her well trained luscious body that she worked hard to keep was still there, but when her hands reach up to her head she felt something was off...till she realized that her whole head was an actual crow, "*squawk?!*" Qrowella shouted out in panic.
"Do you like it? One squawk for yes, two for no." Oz said while bringing a mug to his lips, which hid his amused smile, as he took a sip of his caffeine.
"*squawk squ-!*" Qrowella was gonna two squawks for no, however she was stopped when Ozpin had quickly reach his hand up and closed her beak shut, in which her red eyes wide at what he done.
"Great! I knew you would like it." he told her as he removed his hand from the beak.
"*squawk squawk! squawk squawk!*" Qrowe would protested as she shook her head and wave her hand to tell him 'No', but the headmaster didn't heed her decline.
"Say no more, I'm always happy to help Qrowella." Ozpin beamed out in satisfactory, then he would stood up from his seat and began to head towards the elevator away from the shock bird-headed woman, "Now, if you would excuse me. I would-" he was cut off from what he was about to say when Qrowella had quickly gotten in his path. In which he froze still as he looked into her glaring eyes, one that would fit well with a pissed off Nevermore.
"*SQUAWK SQUAWK*!" Qrowe yelled at him, then before Ozpin could calm her down the bird-headed huntress would start attacking him...with her beak!
"Ow! Wait, Qrowe-ow! Please, ow stop stop ow it was a mere jest!" Oz spoke out while trying to defend himself from the oncoming sharp pecks with either his cane or mug as a shield, which did little as Qrowella kept on getting through and pecked his eyes out, even with aura it was still hurt, "Alright! I'll change you back!" the headmaster quickly said as he jumped back from the angry bird-woman and raised his cane again with the same magic he used.
Qrowella was about to go back at 'attacking' him again with her beak when she suddenly poof into smoke again, this time instead of any more squawk there was a hard cough from the smoke. In which a hand was waving it threw to banished it, and when it was clear there stood Qrowella back to the way she was before. She did a quick check around her body, making certain nothing was out of place with any body part of hers. For all she knew, Ozpin might had turn into a 'man' instead of her normal self...in which she had turned around from her employer so that she could check her chest and lower region...then lets out a sigh of relief with everything was alright. Then turning her head to glare at the old wizard.
"Do that again, and Salem won't be the only dangerous woman you'd need to worry about. Ya sonava-bitch!" Qrowella warned him, not waiting on a response the red-eye woman would march towards the elevator to take it, no way she was gonna just fly herself down after that, which when she had let Ozpin would let out a breath that he didn't realized he was holding.
"Perhaps I've should've taken James warning to heart, never antagonize Qrowella Branwen." the headmaster said before taking a sip from his mug...only to notice that it was empty...and now realized why his chest was burning.
Later on: Team RWBY's room.
"Aunty Qrowe! Did you miss us? Well, did you?!" cried out an excited Ruby as she hung off from the arm of their aunt/mentor/mother figure when said woman had arrived at their dorm, who would look blankly at her youngest niece before a smirk form on her lips.
"...Nope." Qrowe said as she playfully yank Ruby's red hood over the young girl's head, and then ruffle the redhead when she removed the hood.
"You're a terrible liar, Aunt Qrowella." Yang told her aunt, when her sister had step back the blonde girl would walk up and wrap her arms around the older woman in a hug which the latter would gladly return back.
"Love you too, firecracker. So, you girls are ready to head out?" Qrowe questioned after letting go of her eldest niece, in which Ruby would take out her scroll to check the time.
"Yeah, if we can leave now we'll be able to catch the next bullhead to Vale and get to the theater." she told them, as the next showing of the movie was in a couple hours.
"Sounds good, maybe we'll have enough time to sneak in some snacks." their aunt commented.
"Good thinking, I'll go change into my cargo pants right quick!" Ruby exclaimed as she quickly ran to the dresser, dig out the clothes, then rushed to the bathroom with said pants in hand. Yang would shake her head at her baby sisters antic before turning to her aunt, which she raised a eyebrow in confusion.
"Qrowe, why do you have feathers in your hair?" the blonde girl questioned, she watch as the older woman had a puzzled expression on her face while running her hand through her messy black hair...and pulled out a few black feathers that she held.
"...a pesky Nevermore." was all Qrowella would replied, she did NOT want her image as a 'Cool Aunt' to be ruined by what she had to go through a while ago.

Okay, I know I've mention I felt much better after putting this in and now, officially, I feel much much better. There are still some idea's I wanna work on with a female Qrow involved...but I had wondered if anyone had thought of something that I've haven't done yet. Like, for example, if they wanna make a story that has her paired up Ironwood or Clover for it yet have not run into any stories like that...yet.
Honestly I'd would love to see how other authors would make even if it is good or bad, hell I'll even admit they're better than me when it comes to writing good stories. Authors such as: Lowkey Classy, Bladewolf101, HandAssassinSpider-man, and many others I am following. These are the kinds of people that I always look forward to what else they would come up with next, and I hope they will still be able keep you, the readers, entertained!
Until next time, DDK out.
