Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of A Lingering Ember. Enjoy the 2200-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.
(Vale.)
Trivia had remembered her training from school… The good old school of being backstabbed, backstabbing, lying, stealing, trying to work out who was a good mark, whom could be stolen from. It'd be a nice part of her life when this had been done and dusted and she knew for now. She knew better than to trust Lady Browning's preparatory academy for girls. It had been a sham from the second she had glanced at it and she had fallen out before they could turn her into a good little thief for now.
She had stolen a lot since then, but mostly from her father. It felt better than she had expected it to be for now. A lot more fun and a lot more liberating for now. it had been oh so interesting for now when this had been decided for now when all of this was fun. It had been a lot more of a ride for her than anything. She enjoyed it enough to at least thank the trainers. They were scumbags, but at least they were more open about it than most. It gave her some respect for others.
Trivia kicked one of the two cops before she hummed before she questioned as of the time being what to do next. It had been something crazy to do next.
There was so much more to this. She hadn't yet questioned before now. She had been a lot more focused on fighting for her life when it came down to it. She has been a lot more focused on it.
Still? rather than deal with the problem of their enemies she knew she'd simply need to fight a lot smarter to do next.
She watched as Ollie dodged another punch from the strike before he kicked the next soldier, she questioned what to do next before now. This had been something a bit odd for her as of the time being.
She tilted her head while she watched what to do next. She watched as Ollie punched one of the officers to the ground while she stepped backward before now. This had been something that had been a lot odder of the time.
"Are you sure you are, ok?" Ollie questioned before he tilted his head as he caught another punch from one of the cops. "Stay calm. Their back down eventually." Ollie added as he sighed to himself.
There was a lot more to see before now. it had been something that needed to be dealt with instantly. They had to retreat further into the city.
"Are you ok?" Neo questioned on her scroll before she dodged another of the punches. "You're being dumb, dumb," Neo questioned before she clicked her tongue.
"Are you ok?" Ollie questioned with his smile. "When had this happened?" Ollie asked before he backpedaled away from them.
She watched as Ollie spun her around him before he fired another bullet which forced the cops back. There were more of them this.
"You're a very silly woman when it comes down to it," Ollie questioned before he tilted his head. "This hadn't been a lot more to see as of the second," Ollie stated while he tilted his head.
This had been a lot more to question as of the time being. He had been trying to drag her to the docks. He had been perhaps before now been questioning as of the time before this was coming down to do this.
She had been a lot happier. This had been a lot more fun for the time being. Whatever the problem was with this problem honestly something had to be dealt with. Whatever problem was happening next. It'd be a lot odder if not for the fact they were dealing with a small army of cops.
This had been a lot more to question before now when it came down to it. She had to be a lot more to ready the defenses before it came down to it. there was a lot more to do next when it came down to it.
She had to be ready for whatever this had been something that had been a lot more to see and do for now.
Trivia turned to see Ollie almost get knocked to the ground, his aura sputtering as he seemed to dodge the attacks being thrown at his head. He pivoted around another kick and knocked them to the ground.
She smiled to herself and looked down at the floor. It had been something fun for him. She would find out where she had gotten his training from. Trivia had been amused and the more she focused on this task? The more amused she would be.
This had been a lot funnier to her than she expected it to be. She knew there was more to see and do for the time. All she had to do was fight a few idiots who stood in the way…. Nothing compared to what she had fought through before now.
What had happened next would be something fun and silly… If this had been an all-time thing before now? She'd understand what to say and do next even if it killed them.
Then again? She had been prepared for worse things when it came down to it. She had lived a horrid life, fighting for something as basic as this was light work. It would always be that way and she wanted to know the time when it had been done and dusted for the second.
What she had now was a chance to control her newfound skill for the time being. He had been a lot more curious and she knew that she had been curious about what to do.
One of the cops fell to the side, a gash from her umbrella on their side as they collapsed. She flipped over a trio of gunshots which Ollie was forced to dodge around. Ollie glanced at her for a second while trying to deflect the bullets away from him. This had been a lot worse in her mind than she expected it to be.
There was oh so much that had been done for her father to find her. He wouldn't rest till he tracked her down for whatever stupid little reason he could find for the time. She rolled her eyes.
She knew better than anyone that this fun would. There was nothing more to say and do next. She had made it clear that this was going to be something fun for her to question and fun for her to clamp down on for now. The enjoyment on her face was palpable for now and she is damned if she wasn't able to enjoy it for now.
Ollie dragged her behind him while he rolled his eyes at her. This had been fun for now. It had been fun for her at the end of the day. She knew better than most that the show wasn't over yet.
It'd be fun for now if not for anything else. She could only wait to see what was coming next.
Ollie blocked more gunshots with his weapon which transformed into a blade-like weapon as he slowly turned to her. He would roll his eyes probably if she could see him. the blindfold had constantly seemed to be hidden from view. It had been something honestly interesting to him. This place had been a lot more fun and exciting for now. What he didn't know for now was just what this place had been had a lot more to say and do next.
It had made her curious. A lot more curious for now when all was decided now. This had been fun for now. This questioned what to do before it seemed to happen. What it seemed to question before she hummed to herself.
This had been oh so much fun for now. This had been something fun for now. What had been done and dusted before it had before now. The idea had been something that questioned while now had seemed to come down to it. The idea had been something. There was so much fun.
Still? she had been oh so much interested in this and she knew it. She knew more than anything that there would be more cops and more people who had tried to get in her way for now. it'd be odd if she didn't seem to enjoy that simple idea for now.
Still? She greeted it warmly at the end of the day and didn't once disappoint for the time being when she considered it. the chance had been oh so interesting as of the second when all had been decided before now. It had been a lot more to question before now. There was still had been a lot more to this fight in this battered and broken alleyway that lay in their path. It'd be one for the history books. It'd be something fascinating for them to overcome when all had been said and done.
She watched as one of the cops fell to the ground and another tried to stab at her friend only for Ollie to deflect it. She drove a kick into his face which seemed to be more than enough to take him down as he crumpled, his nose a bloody and shattered mess. Ollie turned to look at her, his face twisted into a frown as he did so. The sigh that had come over his withered lips made her question what to do next.
There was another bang as a tattered mess of green shattered across the entire alleyway. She turned to see his aura had been broken as one of the officers held his smoking revolver towards them.
Trivia watched as Ollie took another hit from another of the crowd of officers. It knocked his head and hood back, blood spilling from his bloodied lips as he collapsed to his knees. It also knocked the blindfold away. She gasped as she realized why he hadn't yet reacted to her movements but could understand her pokes at his features….
Waxy yellow covered his eyes as he elbowed the officer backward and slammed him into the wall. Trivia knew enough to understand what it was… He was blind. He couldn't see her in the same way she couldn't speak.
Ollie managed to grab back the blindfold and pull his hood back on and across his head. It had been something odd for now and this had been something terrible for now.
She growled and drew the knife from before as well and threw herself towards the cops who dared attack her friend and incur her wrath for the time being. It was simply terrible for the time being when all was said and done. She'd only relent when they backed down at the end of the day. This would be something interesting at the end of the day.
She'd make them pay for this. Her father had taken too damn much from her, she'd be damned if he took her friend from her.
She slammed another foot into the face of one of the cops before stabbing another in the side. Her umbrella knocked a third back as she managed to vault over their shoulder and strike another soldier in the side. She landed in a crouch and turned to try and engage them once more, interested in this more than she had been before.
Ollie glanced at her, his eyes still glowing yellow as he tied the blindfold around his eyes, all too hopeful about what to do next… He had been ready to fight more. She knew for a fact that this could end badly yet she didn't at all back down at all. She had been oh so hopeful.
Trivia slammed a fist into one of the cops before she tossed one of them to the side. She waded into the barrage of cops while slashing and kicking all the while. They retreated with at least 3 being knocked to the floor. It'd be scarier if they didn't know when this had been said and questioned before it had been settled.
She questioned what to do next. This had been a rollercoaster for him and it wasn't likely to change yet. The idea had been slowly rolling around in his mind for now at the end of the day. he looked at her… Or at least what the equivalent had been for his condition was. it had made him question before now as now.
This had been a lot odder for now. A lot odder for now.
