Chapter 17: Old wounds

AN most of this chapter will be spent on James and Weiss

Grimm studies

AN sorry for it being so soon but I'm skipping Port's story and going to Weiss's fight.

A Boarbatusk was just killed. Flashback Ruby's pov

Weiss" STOP TELLING ME WHAT TO DO!" I was only trying to help. End of flashback

Ruby" What is wrong with you?"

Weiss" What's wrong with me, What's wrong with you? Your immature, childish and ~"

James" WEISS a word in private" dragging her over to an balcony.

Weiss" Let go of me!"

James" I thought you were different than this"

Weiss" What are you saying?"

James" Weiss, you have seen part of the place that I come from, but you haven't seen what it has done to me." starting to take off his shirt.

Weiss" Oh no we are not doing that."

James" I'm showing you the results of what your behavior can bring." now bare chested all of his scarring is visible, ranging from burns to cuts, the most pronounced of which is three cuts, one diagonal from left to right and two across his stomach.

Weiss" How did that happen?" gesturing to the cuts.

James" my father's punishment for failing to kill the bat, he took a boxcutter to me and tried to gut me." Now in shock and looking away" Don't look away, you need to see this. I have tried to leave my past behind, but I can't, I haven't listened to someone who was trying to help and it got them killed and me captured and toured."

Weiss now crying" How can you live like that?"

James" One phrase, I am too stubborn to die. And I don't, I survive, it's no way to live."

Weiss" Ok m, I get it." he walks over.

James" You want to be a leader, but what you don't know is that it's a burden, not a privilege."

Weiss" Thank you" and she walks away. Putting his shirt on

Boone" I have seen a lot of scarring on people, but hands down, you have the most interesting."

James" Boone right?"

Boone" yep, so the electric burn scars, how did you get them?"

James" It would be like me saying why did you kill Carla."

Boone now furious" Who do you think you are?"

James" Boone, I know what it's like to lose someone like that."

Boone" Did Avery tell you?"

James" No, my semblance allows me to enter another's mind."

Later in team JADE'S room

Avery" Boone told me that you brought up Carla."

James" Yes I did."

Dennis" Ok let's not have a fight." looking at Avery" Please."

AN so next time it won't be so long before upload but school starts at the 4th of September so fuck me.
