Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of The Dragon and her rook. Enjoy the 900- word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.
(Vale, Beacon, 2 Weeks before season 3.)
Skyler walked into the front of the hospital, there were squads of Atlesian soldiers and AK-200s stomping around the place, Skyler stepped into the hospital elevator, holding the gift he was going to give Yang.
He made it to her room where Yang was, 2 Atlesian Soldiers guarded the room as Skyler stepped up to the room.
"How is she?" Skyler asked, the man looked up at the captain and saluted.
"She's still recovering, but she's awake, General Ironwood said he'd contacted her team and they will be arriving soon, sir." Skyler heard from the soldier and nodded before stepping past them.
"Escort them here, she's the sister of the team leader…" Skyler ordered, he stepped into the room.
He blinked as Yang looked at him with barely open lilac eyes, her wounded arm was bandaged and yet she still had a weak smile under the breathing mask.
"What? Come to talk, captain handsome?" Yang weakly joked as Skyler stepped forward and sat in the chair next to her bed and held her other hand.
"Funny. You know, not a lot of people get dozens of Atlas soldiers guarding them, and the gift I brought… But since you're my girlfriend…" Skyler said with a smirk which Yang laughed at.
"If I told you… I knew you had a crush on me…" Yang said weakly, Skyler rolled his eyes and unwrapped the object he had brought with him.
It was a new arm, it looked like it could easily punch through steel and had 2 barrels on it, one under the hand and one on top.
"What's that?" Yang asked, Skyler, lifted the arm and held it in front of her.
"It's a new arm for you… Do you know this took a whole night…? Which means I barely got sleep, thank you for that, Firefly." Skyler said which Yang blinked at the nickname.
"I made this for you… It isn't entirely done; I was going to paint it and see if it would work… But I know you are probably miserable sitting in that hospital bed... So, I brought it here for you to see what your awesome boyfriend did for you." Skyler said, he was very amused at the moment, Skyler heard the elevator ding and knew it would only be a few minutes before Ruby and her friends would be here.
"I packed in a shotgun if you're not using Ember Celica… And it's rocket-powered and as tough as you are… I think… I also packed in one extra surprise on the bottom… But I'll let you find that out when you need it." Skyler said before he hugged Yang and sat up.
"Take care, Xiao Long, come and get me when you're out, I want to see how that arm works and if you like it," Skyler said before he walked out just as he passed Ruby, Weiss, Blake and a man Skyler guessed was either her uncle or father.
He reached the elevator when he heard a gasp from Ruby and then the words that brought the biggest smile to his face.
"WHAT IS THAT!? DID SKYLER MAKE THAT?! AW, YOUR SO LUCKY, YANG!" Ruby yelled as Skyler slipped into the elevator and Ruby stuck her head out at him.
Skyler waved as the elevator closed and brought him to the ground floor, his scroll rang as he stepped out of the elevator.
"Skyler, I need to see you soon, I'm guessing you visited Yang?" Skyler heard from Ironwood as he walked past the AK200s and Atlesian Soldiers before he spoke up.
"Yep, just left her a gift and left, I'll swing in the second I get to Beacon, I'm going to talk to Yang when she leaves the hospital, is that ok?" Skyler asked, Ironwood nodded, it was clear nobody was around the Atlesian General as Skyler boarded a Manta Gunship.
"I want you to tell her thanks for making my nephew happy and I hope you two have a great life together… But I do need to talk to you, it's something I can't trust to anyone outside Oz's circle." Ironwood said as Skyler gave directions to the AK-200 who piloted the ship.
"I'll be there in a minute…. I made sure Vale was safe, I still don't think the people will like having dozens of Atlesian soldiers marching through the streets and a fleet above their heads." Skyler said, he wouldn't argue though, his uncle far outranked him, and he knew he would have his reasons for doing what he was doing.
"I'll be waiting in Oz's office, I'll meet you and Winter there," Ironwood said before he ended the call, Skyler folded the scroll away and put it away into his pocket.
The Manta landed and Skyler stepped off it before he brushed off his jacket and walked off towards the tower.
Author notes
Phew, another chapter is done! Yep, Yang has her new arm and Skyler has given her a nickname. I also want to point out this is the start of Yang and Skyler officially dating. The next chapter will be next Saturday and will show Skyler talking with Yang again and the start of season 3. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
Also, I am making some My Hero Academia stories. Let me know on the poll which one you guys might want!
