Leona's POV

With Yang and Weiss back with us we decided to sit down for dinner and do some catching up.

"I had a feeling splitting up from you was a poor idea." Tarzana told Aria.

"Oh, don't be a baby it worked out Tata." She smiled "We split up to find Lele and Nene faster and we did it."

"I did it, you got captured by bandits." Tar rolled her eyes.

"Oh pass the sauce." Ruby was half reaching over the table.

We just talked about stuff, what had happened, weird things we saw, it was nice to just…be relaxed for once.

"Whoa!" we awed when Yang rolled up her sleeve and showed a yellow and black mechanical arm in place of her normal one.

"It's not the real thing I guess but I'll make use of it." She spun the hand around playfully.

"They've come so far as to make new limbs." Tar said "Fascinating, we have much to learn."

"Is it just as strong?!" Ruby asked touching it.

"It sure is." Yang laughed.

"HMPH!" Nora slammed her arm down on the table "Let's go."

"Now's not really the time…" Weiss said.

"It's always the time! Dibs on the winner!" I yelled.

"HMMM!" Yang put her elbow on the table and started arm wrestling Nora.

"Go Yang!" Ruby yelled "Kick her butt she's in a skirt!"

"So are you." Weiss said.

"HmHmHm." Neo smiled.

"It feels like the original that's for sure." Nora growled.

"Yeah…but it does have some tricks." Yang smirked.

"Really now?" Nora laughed "WAH!"

The arm immediately rocketed out of the elbow joint and sent Nora across the room.

"Cheater." I shook my head.

"No sense of competition." Tar added.

"Yaya wins!" Aria cheered.

"AHHH!" Nora threw the arm across the room when she realized she was holding it.

"HAHAHA!" Yang couldn't stop laughing.

We messed around for a little more before all the food was gone and we just chilled out.

"How do a bunch of kids make so much noise while eating dinner?" Qrow came out.

"Kids are rowdy." I shrugged "Hey I consider is an accomplishment, we made that much noise and Neo can't even talk."

"I could start singing if you'd like." Aria smiled.

"Save that for later." Tar said.

"As usual though you two came in and killed the mood." I walked passed Qrow and Oscar "Great job."

I assumed that they wanted to bring Aria, Weiss and Yang up to speed, but Aria didn't seem to give a damn and Weiss and Yang were surprisingly in the know.

"So the maidens…" Weiss tried to get the conversation moving out of a palpable stall.

"Miss Long, this is more or less what your mother told you yes?" Oz asked.

"Oh that fun story Miss Raven told us." Aria clapped "Sounds familiar."

"Ariana." Tar glared "Please be quiet."

"Uh-oh she called me Ariana she must be serious." She whistled back.

There's something else…" Yang stopped tapping her fingers on the armrest of the couch "your story is missing the part about Qrow and my mother."

"Hm…" I looked up.

Now I was interested.

"I hadn't expected her to give up a secret like that." Oz said.

"GRR!" I growled "enough of your bullshit missing gaps! If you want our help like you say you do stop playing 50/50 with the truth!"

"Leona!" Tarzana yelled.

"RRRR!" I lifted Oz up by the collar "Trust is a two way street, that's what you humans always say right? Then stop expecting us to be the only ones doing any trusting around here! You want us on your side but all you do is play with your lies, secrets and half-truths!"

"Now I-!"

"Not I!" I snapped and poked his chest "WE! This isn't just your body it's Oscar's too! You expect us to protect this kid for you, you drag him and us into the fire yet you never bother giving us the full story or telling us what the fuck it is we're walking into! Some of us can handle fights of the level to come, but why should the ones of us who can handle it even bother if we don't know who it is we're really fighting for!"

"Ever since you came into our lives it's been nothing but living hells!" I snapped "I didn't start going this batshit till I came to your school! Every problem comes back to you! Your secrets and missteps got the school attacked, you're why Blake's MIA, you're why Yang's short and arm, You're why Pyrrha's dead!"

I dropped him.

"Don't beat around the bush, don't try your philosophical bullshit on me enough of your constant lying! I value strength and someone who does nothing but constantly keep secrets and leave allies in the dark at critical moments…is nothing but a weakling. You don't fight you do nothing but scheme and plot just like the people we're fighting" I turned around and looked at Ruby "I'm done!"

"Leona…" she looked up.

"I'll stay cause I'm fighting for you and I'll keep Oscar alive like I said I would." I said looking back "But I'm not fighting for him."

"...we concur with Leona." Tarzana said "The Amazons are allies of Ruby Rose and her friends...we are not Allies of the one known as Ozpin."
