After a bit of driving and little bit of helping out people, Night has come and Grimms are spawn from the ground. as they drive to the resort, they see Grimms wondering around some in packs and others flying around. Before they could be attack, they've reach the station more specifically a Gas Station with a decent looking motel and a Diner on the side. Right besides the diner, a Billboard advertising Al'ya resort to the right. Grimm pulls up to the front of the motel and they hop out the car.
"alright that's far enough, i'll take it from here until we get our bearings." said Mari
Rain grab her camera and she looks through the pictures with Maki. Mari goes to the mobile shop near the diner to buy some necessities. Grimm takes out a big package as he goes to the motel counter, on the counter and old man reading a data pad and mumbling something. Grimm press the bell which caught the old mans attention and he puts away the data pad.
"Hello their sonny, what can i help you with"
"Um...package from Clemson" he put the package in front the old man
"Came all the way out to deliver the good, well thank you kindly. here some compensation" the old man puts two stacks of lien which Grimm grabs and scans it
"if you want stay for the night just say the word" the old man said suddenly Grimm yawned causing the old and to giggle "Then ill set you up, got any people with you?"
"Yeah, three people"
"Alright, just 500 lien" Grimm pulls a 500 lien and hands them to the old man with old man hands a key in return
"Alright room 15. just head up, their only two beds for the room up to you" Grimm nods. he grab the keys and heads into the parking lot with his team gathered together
"looks like were gonna crash on the motel for tonight" Grimm announces
"Woo hoo, no more sleeping in rocks" Rain cheered with her arm raised
"a nice bed does sound nice"
"Let's head inside"
Everyone walks to their motel room and they played a bit of cards which Mari won before sleeping on the bed with Mari and Grimm on one bed and Rain and Maki on the other side with pillows separating them.
The next day, the team is driving to the Al'ya resort while driving the radio announces a speech conducted by Aluna
"for the next story, Lady Aluna from Valstad has a speech regarding the upcoming peace treaty" It switch over to Aluna taking
"Words cannot express the relief that i feel about the peace treaty for fourteen years of talks has finally come nor the pride in take in my betrothed to my beloved Contis. may not be as monumental as the defeat of Salem but this history would be one of the greats. My Marriage will not hinder my duty as an Oracle. with my love besides me we'll help whose ever in need."
"Lady Aluna will set forth to Amysta, for wedding ceremony in the coming days, be advise that her duties as Oracle will be suspended".
"Well...it's in the treaty right?"
"it's for formality anyway, they would be a symbol of peace those to nations. just like with the Neo White Fang with the other nations for Faunus equality." Mari explained
"so a marriage of convince...that kinda sucky" Rain said
"the lady doesn't seem bothered by it. she truly love Prince Contis so it's a win-win" Maki commented
"i just hope we get paid for this"
"always the money huh..."
After a few minutes of drive, they are nearing the resort as Rain sits on the head support of the car seat and she squints her eyes to see the sea
"Hey i see the sea" she punned
"i sea it too" Grimm also punned causing Rain and Mari to giggle
"Thats Al'ya"
"I'm itchin' for a dip"
Few minutes later, Mari parked the car to the parking lot of Ay'la Resort. The resort is a beautiful surroundings filled with various flowers on bushes. stairs leading to the right leads to a clean beach. to the right is a trinket shop with beautiful decoration and the main attraction is the resort it's self which looks like a hut structure with glass surrounds the base of it and over the water with perfect view of a big island.
"Hot damn this place fancy, hope we have enough for a sleep and food" Rain said with a sweat drop on her face
"Well our families are not gonna pay for so... hope we have" Grimm gulped. They all walk toward the resort which is connected to a long bridge because the resort in very far.
"Okay who ever did this long bridge better not get any raise." Rain Complained
After 30 minutes of walking, they've reached the resort which is absolutely gorgeous with brown support beams complimenting the light wood flooring. as they walking toward the middle of the resort, A man with a trilby walking toward them with a smile on his face
"I'm afraid you out of luck." the Man said
"Huh..."
"Thinking about ride a boat.."
"Yeah bud what about them?" Rain said with hostility on her voice
"sorry to disappoint but they are out of commission" he said as he looks behind him then back to us
"What your story?" Maki asked
"Just an impatient adventurer, ready to jump ship" he answers as he walks in between Grimm and Maki while he clutches something
"This treaty is such a waste might as well be a reunion party with family" he then suddenly flicks a object towards Grimm but before Grimm could get it, Maki catches it then shows it to his Leader to reveal a Gold Coin
"What this a souvenir?"
"oohh shiny" Rain said with star on her eyes
Mari looks closer at coin and her eyes widen "That's a Velstad Coin" then she put her index and thumb on her chin
"Consider it as an Allowance"
"Yeah who is allowing us?" he asked as he hands it to Grimm
"With Consequences long forgotten" The man said as he walks away
Grimm keeps staring at him which cause him a bit of an headache but it quickly fades
"man do you believe that guy? say the boats are not here"
"I don't doubt the prospect give we didn't see a big one behind it." Mari commented
"One way to find out" Maki said
They headed for the port behind the resort to see that the man was right, the boats are not their on the boardwalks.
"Well shit..." Rain said
"Bummer, here i thought he could be wrong" Maki commented
"Going somewhere on boats? according my sources the imperial had every boat not leave any boat to Amysta. Real shame though if you had somewhere in a hurry." a man said on the bench
"and you are?" Grimm asked
"Oh, pardon the manners kid. The names Cardin Winchester pleasure to meet ya. don't need to say your name. you four are the Royal Guard for the Wedding and you specifically the Son of Ruby Rose, Em' i Right?"
"Accurate, so what are you ? a news reporter?" Grimm asked
"Something like that but tell you what i could get you a boat to Amysta with no charge. Absolutely nothing"
"But theirs' a catch..."
"you got me. you see i'm professional report by day but a jeweler by night. i'll mark it on your map a jewel to get it"
Grimm gives him the map and mark the spot that a jewel would be.
"Mine it out and get it easy enough. Better give to me or their will be Consequences" Cardin said in a menacing tone on the last word
Grimm nods and his team head back to the resort
"So we got a request. maybe easy but let's keep on guard."
"Yeah but first let's get something to eat" Rain suggested
"i just hope we have some money to afford one here" Grimm said
They head to the restaurant in the middle of the resort which is run by a brown haired bunny faunus and a tall tanned skin man wait in the kitchen. they Grimm walked up the counter and asked as the trio find a seat
"Umm hello, we would like to order" Grimm asked which caught the attention of the bunny faunus and tall man and their eyes widen
"GRIMM! is that you?!" the faunus asked in surprised tone
"Umm do i know you two?" Grimm said in a confusing tone
"W-what! you don't remember us? Aunt Velvet and Uncle Yastsuhashi?" she said in a hurt tone
"Ummm... i remember now. Aunt bunny" Grimm answered which Velvet jumped up in joy as she exits the kitchen and hugs him tightly also Yatsuhashi exits the kitchen.
"How did i not see pass by?" She asked as he broke off the hug and kissed his forehead
"i don't know but it's nice to see you two"
"Good to see ya kid" Yatsuhashi greeted as he ruffle his hair much to Grimm annoyance.
"So what are you doing here? this is kinda expensive resort" Velvet asked
"We got mission for the King of Arso. their was no boats here but a man named Cardin said we could get one if we give him a jewel" Grimm Explained which Velvets' eyes roll
"Why did my husband wants a jewel?"
"Wait your married? that new to me"
"and me" Rain said behind them while she crosses her arms
"RAIN!" Velvet hugs Rain "How are doing sweetie?"
"I'm fine Auntie but before we could some sweet moments, lets eat first" Velvet broke off the hug
"OH of course, lets get back to kitchen Yats" Velvet and Yatsuhashi goes back behind the counter as they fire up the stove
Rain and Grimm put in the orders they could afford and The other half of Team CFVY starts getting to work. Grimm and Rain goes to their table with Mari and Maki talking with other. After a 20 minutes of waiting for their food has come. Velvet and Yatsuhashi came up to them with smiles on their faces
"How's the food? it up there" Everyone of team GRMM nodded except Mari, who just hummed then brings out a small notebook which Velvet spotted and giggled
"i see you guys have a team cook" Velvet said with a smile
"My apologies, i can't resist the culinary taste. so i'll try to recreate it later" she explained
"My i?" Velvet asked for the notebook which Mari hands over then she reads it which made her shocked on how accurately she got it "How is that possible...i've spent years perfecting this recipe."
"Some say i have gift in cooking but ever since my honey here inspired me to pursue it" Mari said as kisses Grimm cheek causing him to blush and Velvet to gasp and Yatsuhashi eyes widen in shock
"LITTLE WOLF!, you have a GIRLFRIEND?!" Velvet almost shouted which Grimm nodded shyly
"Oh, I'm so proud of you." Velvet ruffled his hair
"stop..."
"Well that settles it, I'll call Coco to book you a free stay here" Velvet said as she pulls up her scroll and left them with Yatsuhashi give them a bow and also left
"Although we got a free room, let's not be used to it. the next time we're here we'll pay." Mari lectured
"We know sis. let's finish up and get that request done" they nodded at Maki and they eat up their food.
Finishing up their meal, Grimm called a waiter and they check out for the food. After that, they were off to the spot that Cardin pinned. Few hours later, they reach the spot where the jewel would be but it on a higher place but that didn't discourage. search for a way to get up there which they found easily and went up to the bridging the other side that has the jewel. Few hours later, they've got the jewel but the big bird from last time was there and it was sleeping which it didn't woke up making it a breeze to get to it.
They finished there job and head of to their room that Coco booked them. Cardin promised them a boat to there destination
