Leona's POV

"So just who was that girl?" Weiss asked as we got back to the room, Ruby cleverly hiding her recently cut arm.

"Neopolitan, or Neo for short." I said sitting down "She's from my village, she's an amazon. I hadn't expected to see her here…she's vanished when we were just kids."

"What happened?" Ruby asked.

"I don't know…" I looked out the window "One day they said she was going to be taking her training very seriously and didn't have time to play anymore. Neo is part of the Matriarch's bloodline, she would have taken over the village someday so it wasn't surprising to hear that she didn't have time for normal village kids like us. There's so much I need to learn about her…why is she here, I thought I was the only person to leave the village?"

"We can't do much more about her right now." Blake said "We can only assume she shows up, I'm sure we'll learn more about her the more we learn about Torchwick and his plan."

"Right!"

We all packed it in for the night, exhausted from our day's hard work.

"Neo…"

"Leona…do you ever wonder what's out there…out passed all the trees?"

"Why bother, we have everything we need here, fruit from the trees, animals to hunt."

"I just…feel like there's more."

"You're gonna be Matriarch someday."

"Well when I am then I'll send explorers out passed the forbidden wall, then we'll know what it's like out there, where menfolk come from, the world they speak of."

"You crazy…but I bet it be fun, when we're older let's go see the world, I bet there's fun stuff to fight passed the wall."

"Ugh…" I shook my head a bit "That was a long time ago."


Later

A few days later we were back in class, we kept up our instigations on the side while we weren't' studying, but we hadn't had any more sightings since the other day. Today we were sparring, or more specifically Pyrrha was sparring against whole teams and wiping the floor with them, she's something alright.

"I know that's a tough act to follow but we have time for one more." Professor Goodwitch said "Any Volunteers?"

"Me!" I growled.

"I'm not sure if I have the time for one of your spars." She told me "Besides you fought earlier, perhaps another time."

"Boo." I huffed.

"Uhh Miss Belladonna?" She moved to my teammate "You've been rather docile as of late would you like to participate?"

"Uhh…" Blake paused.

"I'll do it." Mercury raised his hand.

Mercury Black, visiting student that came with his friend Emerald, I don't like him, and not just because he's a man but something about him is…off. Emerald too, the dark-skinned girl with the green bob, both give me a bad vibe.

"Mercury is it?" the teacher asked "Very well, let's find you an opponent. Leona are you still interested?"

"Of course-"

"Actually I wanna fight her." He pointed at Pyrrha.

"What." I growled "Are you underestimating me man filth?"

"Me?" Pyrrha was somewhat surprised.

"Miss Nikos has just finished a match, I recommend you choose a different opponent." Miss Goodwitch told him.

"I wanna fight him more now." I growled.

"No it's fine." Pyrrha said "I'm happy to oblige."

The fight was allowed to happen, I was mostly pissed that I wasn't allowed to participate but it was interesting to watch, Pyrrha had the upper hand for most of the fight her sword and shield gave her more flexibility than Mercury's kicks but the second Pyrrha was about to win he quit.

"All men are cowards." I grumbled as we left "A good fight spoiled by a lackluster ending."

"It was just a spar." Weiss told me.

"So what." I looked at her "The last thing you see in a fight is the ending, and if the ending sucks you leave with a bad taste, it's the worst."

I heard people talking about some dance coming up, apparently Weiss and Yang were working on planning it. I failed to understand it but Ruby explained that it's like a party to relax and celebrate, I had a rough idea, it was sort of like a celebratory feast. Blake wasn't keen on going but I thought it sounded interesting, although apparently I was going to have to wear a dress."

"I hate this." I looked at Ruby, standing there in a red and brown dress that hugged my body "It's too tight, it shows my…breasts too much."

"I think you look awesome." She smiled "Did anyone ask you to go with them?"

"I think some boy asked me, I told him never to speak to me again." I told her.

"That was mean." She said "He probably worked himself up to ask you."

"I'd never be some man's guest." I huffed.

"You're going alone?" she asked.

"Yes, aren't you as well?" I asked.

"Hahaha…yeah." She sighed.

"Then let's go together." I told her.

"HUH?! W-We can't go I mean."

"I fail to see the problem here." I blinked "You're supposed to bring someone with you right, then let's go together, rather than both alone."

"I guess." She blushed a bit.

"Good." I smiled "Oh, the cuts on your arm, will they show on your dress?"

"It's fine I can cover them up or something." She smiled "Don't worry about it."
