Hello there. Is this meme overused?
Just like these hiatuses!
RandomGuest: Stunstick master race. I'm Just Kidding. But there was the obscured part where he bludgeoned that dude's face. Don't worry though, I'll give it some love. In the form of jokes and fighting scenes.
RelightTheTorch: He was sliding on Adam there.
Oh yeah, changing things up a bit. Mainly the number of perspective changes, focusing on the main OCs I have here that are also going to overgo some changes.
Anywho, here is the chaptoo.
"What's happening?" The player asked as Qrow broke from the crowd and walked over to the armed escort. Consisting of four robots and two sisters in white.
'Oh no...' He internally cursed at the scene where Qrow took care of two robots. 'I also just realized how good he is, if he isn't sober already.'
"Hey!" The escort turned around to face Qrow. "Yeah, I'm talking to you, Ice Queen!"
As one of 'Ice Queen's automated soldiers advances, rifle raised. "Halt!"
The younger sister walked up to Qrow's face "Excuse me! Do you have any idea who you are talking to!?"
Qrow placed his hand on youngster's face. "Sssshhh. Not you." Pushing her out of his way as he moves forward.
"Hey!"
Qrow looked at the irritated Ice Queen as he clarifies. "You, Saw that gaudy ship of yours in town. I guess you're here, too."
The older sister looked at him, unimpressed. "I'm standing right before you."
Qrow squinted. "So it would seem."
'Is he still drunk?' The player thought.
"You realize you just destroyed Atlas Military property."
"Oh, oh I'm sorry. See, I mistook this for some sort of... sentient garbage." Qrow sarcastically apologized.
'Well, he's not wrong.' The player mused.
"I don't have time for your immature games, Qrow."
"Wait, you two know each other?" The youngster asked.
"Jeez, you Atlas Specialists think you're so special, don't you?" He sneered.
"It's in the title."
"Well, you know what you really are? A bunch of sellouts. Just like your boss."
"I'm not sure what you think you're implying, but I've heard enough."
"Oh I heard, too. I heard ol' Ironwood finally turned his back on Ozpin."
"Ozpin?" The youngster asked again, only to be shoved aside by her sister.
"Weiss, it's time for you to go."
Weiss protested as Qrow continued. "Listen to big sister, Weiss. She'll protect you. Just like Atlas is going to protect all of us, huh?"
The older sister had enough, drawing her sword. "If you won't hold your tongue, then I will gladly remove it for you!"
Qrow seemed to be satisfied. "Alright then..." Slicking back his hair. "Come take it."
'Oh? Fun. I'll stay here a bit.' The player looked on at the two adults readying the battle.
And what a spectacular battle it was. Two experienced veterans, in the player's case, fighting each other. It felt like pitting NG8 Dark Souls 3 Bosses against Vindictus bosses, well sort of, it was always one sided and the DS bosses kept fighting each other.
He heard a young girl's voice saying that Qrow was her uncle. 'That's your uncle? Wonder what's he like on your house...'
The fight came close as the specialist prepared one, noticeably angry, thrust at an all too cocky Qrow. Before the sword could reach Qrow's neck, a loud shout echoed across the watching crowd.
"SCHNEE!"
'Ouch.' He thought to himself as a man in a white coat walked up towards the specialist.
The specialist lowered her blades as she addressed the man at about face. "General Ironwood, sir!"
The general approached her. "What in the world do you think you're doing?"
"He started the altercation, sir!" Pointing to Qrow.
Qrow placed his hands behind his head, relaxed. "That's actually not true. She attacked first."
"Is that right?" The general asked as she looks down in shame. "And you." Qrow points to himself in mock confusion. "What are you doing here?"
"I could be asking you the same thing." He replied.
"I-"
The conversation was interrupted by a man with silver hair accompanied with a blonde woman. After some small talk, they walked away which left Qrow in a state of idleness.
"Uncle Qrow!" His niece cried out as she hung on his arm. "Hi. It's so good to see you! Did you miss me? Did you miss me!?
"Nope." They shared a grin as Qrow pats his niece's head.
'Aww...that's adorable. Reminds me of my little sister...' Homesickness plagued the player's mind as he walked over to Qrow.
"Qrow!" The player looked at the source, revealing to be the silver haired man. "A word, please." While the blonde woman repairs the damage caused with magic.
Qrow discreetly whispered to his niece. "I think I'm in trouble."
"You did kinda tear up the courtyard." The player mused as the pair noticed looked at him.
"Yeah, I did." Winking, he gave her niece a fist bump. "Catch ya later, kid." Walking off to join the silver haired man.
'Great, I don't have a guide anymore.' He huffed in annoyance.
Weiss walked up beside Qrow's niece, arms crossed. "And suddenly, your recklessness makes sense."
She nudged Weiss' shoulder in reply. "You're just mad because he whooped butt."
"That was a draw, at best!"
That was all the conversation he heard before he walked away, towards the 'Colosseum'
'I wonder what's this sanctioned fight the man was talking about...'
Line Breaking Line
The player sat up from his seat and walked away as soon as the fight was over
Truth be told, he was just monitoring his 'downloads'.
He didn't really care what was happening because as far as he knew, it's just teenagers fighting each other. Furthermore, he didn't care what the world held for him. It felt like a forced vacation, in a place you don't want to go.
While waiting for the Airbus to pick up the departing, he glanced back at the entrance.
He felt oddly nostalgic looking back there, almost as if...
The sound of he turned and walked in it.
He sat down on a seat next to the windows and looked out.
'Uh, how do I find my way back?'
Silently having a migraine, he slumped back on his seat and sighed.
He stood up after a good few minutes and excused himself to the bathroom. When he reached the hallway leading to it, he heard a voice.
"You seemed to be having a great time."
Startled a bit, he whipped his head to face the source.
It was the huntress a few months ago. She looked unimpressed at the man standing before her.
"Oh, it's you. Hi." He threw a lazy wave.
She sighed. "Why are you here?"
He shrugged. "One of your huntsman buddies led me here."
"What's his name?"
"Qrow, why the interest?" He asked as soon as he saw her reaction when she heard the name.
She shook her head. "Just for clarification."
"Okay, mind telling me why you're here?"
"What? A girl can't catch up with her friends?" Sarcasm laced her voice.
"Hardly 'friends', just mere acquaintances. Besides, I know you didn't just came to have small talk."
"Hmph." She stalked towards him. And if he was right, just in range to stab him with her weapon. "Why did you attack them?"
"You probably have to be more specific."
"The Atlessian Army."
He raised his eyebrow. "Who?"
"The ones in white! With robots!"
"Oh! Them...why the interest?"
She shook her head vigorously. "You have no idea what you just did."
"Sorry, but I don't like to be interrogated and imprisoned. And it's their fault that they threatened it in the first place."
"You basically waged war."
He smirked. "Really? Well, that's their problem. They shouldn't have done it."
They really shouldn't have done it.
She huffed in annoyance. "You're lucky Atlas didn't find you. Otherwise, they would have already sent a much bigger force."
"The more the merrier."
She just shook her head, apparently she had the exact amount of patience he had. A speaker sound blared across the hallway.
"Attention passengers. We are now docked, we hope you enjoyed the flight."
He looked at her, holding his hand out. "Well, it was nice meeting you again."
She looked at the hand for a moment, before shaking it. "Yeah, same."
He strode past her and went out of the Airbus, looking to find a way out of the city.
Cliffhanger, because I don't enjoy writing him walking around aimlessly saying "I'm so lost"
It's funny, but inefficient.
I literally want to skip towards the parts where the Battle of Beacon happens, because all this idling and waiting is driving me nuts!
Expect a fight with Atlas next chapter.
Anyways! I'll see you next!
