Guess who's back early
It's been a long time. Ms, Belladonna."
"Same to you, Taurus"
The soundproofed room was so quiet that the world outside seemed far away. Only four people occupied this room and three pieces of furniture adorned it. On one side of the room, sitting in a simple wooden chair, was Blake Belladonna, head of the Faunas Civil Rights movement. With the help of the newly reformed Schnee Dust Company, or SDC, she had made major advances in earning equal rights for faunas across Remnant. Her outfit was simple, a pair of tuxedo pants and matching overcoat over a fitting buttoned shirt. Her faunas ears remained exposed in their entirety and her hair had been put into a style reminiscent of that of her old professor, Glynda Goodwitch.
Across from her, by a similar chair on the other side of a rectangle table, stood the infamous leader of the White Fang, Adam Taurus. His red, spiky, gelled back hair glinted softly under the light of the lamps above. His mask hid his eyes from her view, but any emotion needed was easily displayed by his mouth and in his body language. His suit hadn't changed since he first became leader of the White Fang six years ago. He chose to stand. His perfect posture and the way his hands were clutched together behind his back gave him the air of a military general rather than the leader of a faunas rights group. The straight frown and bull horns, however, made him seem more a force of evil than one for the good of others.
"Now then. Are we going to discuss a Treaty or shall we continue to fight?" Blake had a very serious and focused expression plastered on her face.
Adam nodded and, at last, sat in his chair. "So, Miss Belladonna. Would you care to explain exactly why you wanted to orchestrate a meeting here and why you seem to think you have the upper hand on us?"Adam kept his voice monotone, allowing no emotion to be heard.
"The answer to that is very simple, Adam." She motioned for her guard to hand her something. Within seconds, a stunningly voluptuous blonde woman moved from the shadows to Blake's side. She had a cheeky smile on her face and a scroll in her hands. "We have this."
The woman turned on the Scroll and a live news feed began playing. "Today, the Faunas Civil Right's Group of Remnant strikes yet another blow against the terrorist group,White Fang. Just a few moments ago over 200 Schnee Anti-Terrorist squads simultaneously raided multiple White Fang bases. They have arrested a startling number of White Fang terrorist's. It is said that, as we speak, the leader of the Faunas Civil Right's group of Remnant is currently negotiating with the leader of the White Fang in a secure location." She closed the scroll and continued to smirk, her lilac eyes shining with a small hint of pride in her employer/wife, Blake.
"Thank you Yang. Now, Mr Taurus about this negotiations." Blake continued to mask any emotion in her voice. Adam merely sat quietly thinking, his gloved fingers crossed under his chin.
"I believe you have done nothing to use as leverage." Adam simply shrugged "all I'd heard was that a handful of our forces were captured by a horribly racist company working with traitors of the White Fang." He gave a small smirk.
"A handful, you say?" Blake leaned forward slightly, her eyes hardening into a glare. "I believe that we have made more than a small dent in your group of misguided faunas." Blake paused, taking on an apathetic look and tone. "Adam. You know what you are doing is not right."
Adam seemed to tense up at the use of his first name. "Do not pretend you still know who I am, Blake." He stood and smiled lightly, taking note of just how visibly tense Blake and her idiotic wife were. "The Adam you once knew is long gone, Blake." He took long, slow strides towards Blake. "He was weak. Unwilling to do what was necessary... I was a fool to believe peaceful protests would ever do anything for our community. You joined me when we took a more... direct path to equality"
Blake sighed "But, unlike you, I saw what our actions were causing"
"They were causing equality!" he growled. "When we began our path, I saw those who discriminated against us cower from us! They no longer wanted to put us down! Things were getting better!"
Blake stood up "No, they weren't! You never saw what happened to faunas outside of the Fang. What happened to the ones trying to live a normal life. After we caused violence they retaliated against us by harming those who could not defend themselves." Blake glared daggers at Adam. "All we did was make it worse."
"Oh, yes and conspiring with the biggest source of Faunas discrimination is so much better. Friends with a Schnee?" He laughed. "I rather vividly remember you once claiming how if you ever met a Schnee, you would subject them to pain unlike anything they had ever heard of. But now look at you. Letting some Schnee bitch manipulate you into doing her bidding!" Adam Took another step towards Blake. He was now a little too close as Blake's guard grabbed Adam's shoulder and gave him a light shove.
"Little too close there, buster." The woman took a step in front of Blake and crossed her arms over her chest, glaring at the Adam. "Unless you want to lose a horn, there, I suggest you take a step back"
"Yang, It's okay" Blake gently moved Yang aside, much to the blonde brawler's discontent. "Adam. For the millionth time, Weiss Schnee is completely different from her family."
"Really?" He laughed again. "I doubt it" His laughter was icy and heartless. The sound of it sent chills up everyone's spines. "She only wants to build her company back up. She cares little about your cause." He sighed and turned around, fed up with this apparently pointless conversation. "Blake... Unless you're about to tell me you want to join me again, I suggest you leave. Unlike you, I have no qualms with the idea of separating your head from that delicate neck of yours." Adam left through the door on his side. A light on the other side briefly illuminated the room before the door shut.
Blake sat back down and sighed, slumping her shoulders looking at the floor her ears flattening. Yang looked at her wife and sighed, walking over in front of her and crouching down looking into Blake's defeated eyes. She gently tucked some stray strands of Blake's hair behind her ear and kissed her forehead. "Hey, you did your best. Next time. Right now, we should focus on figuring out what that douche is planning to do." Blake nodded and stood up slowly walking out from the door on her half of the room.
Please review. Will continue soon i promise
