Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of A Lingering Ember. Enjoy the 2500-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.

(Vale.)

Trivia awoke to arms around her stomach. She felt panicked as she turned, gripping Hush and preparing to have defended herself for the time being. She remembered his words echoing through her head. Something about how this was going to be a lot more of an odd thing, something she didn't know what to have done next. It was so odd, something that couldn't have been done, but it would have been oddly weird before now. He didn't know what else would have happened today or how else this could have gone so wrong. It was so very odd, yet? It was so amusing, so nice, and so caring. He hadn't a problem as of the time being.

This was a lot more to question. She was a lot more to have focused on before now. There was a lot more to have focused upon now. There was a lot

It was then she noticed it was Ollie whom she had forgotten had been placed by her upon the chair in front of them, making both rather exhausted. She looked at his head slumped down over hers as she rolled her eyes, smiling as she playfully poked his nose.

Ollie blinked, his eyes slowly rolling back into their sockets. The teenager shifted as he felt Trivia's hair brush his face. Trivia crossed her small legs under her, unsure if her friend had been ok or simply thrown off by such little things. It hadn't made much sense, but she supposed that nothing would have for now. it was hard to imagine anything else for now.

Ollie glanced at Trivia as she did so, her hand reaching for her custom scroll.

"Sorry, was scared. Why not move?" Ollie heard as she typed before he shook his head.

"Because you're sitting on me which makes it impossible to have gotten up and moved even if I wanted to," Ollie stated to which he got a roll of the eyes from the woman as she did so.

It made him snort in amusement when all of this was over with. She was an odd woman. One which couldn't be doing much of anything. Such a nice thing, such as to focus upon for now. He was tired, a lot more tired as of the focus for it to be over, it made him laugh, he was in such an amusing position, yet? She could have easily cut him to ribbons, but he wasn't able to enjoy it, wasn't able to relax, such a small position, one where he wasn't able to enjoy such a difficult position before now. He was bored, he wasn't able to understand it for now.

She tilted her head and poked his chin, tilting his head as she ruffled his messy hair as he rolled his damaged eye at her. It made him laugh and chuckle.

"Alright, I'm up, I'm up. Stop poking me. I poke back and you know that. I'm not just going to be able to handle it before it came down to it." Ollie said before he pulled himself from the pilot's chair, making him sigh as he rolled his eyes.

He cracked his fingers, glancing at her as his ears twitched. He was too bored and unsure of what else was coming to find much upon the mind, it hurt his brain to think of what might come next. They wouldn't touch Trivia, not while he was still alive, while he still drew breath. If anything? All they were doing were making him mad, very mad, furious enough to have focused more on what to get done and gotten to the next stage.

He was prepared for the time before now. The question was if Trivia was to be over as of now. He did next that this was to focus on what to do next. He was able to ensure that such a thing was over before now. This was more than what he had done, how this had been. He was too unsure of what to question next… He had a lot more to focus on as of now.

"If we go? We're doing this right; I just want you to know that. It's going to be a long time before we get anywhere worth it." Ollie said before he rubbed his eyes.

Still? Such a thing could be handled; he had the tools. He had the plan, all he needed was her help.

"Triv? I'm going to be able to focus more and more on such an important mission, I'm going to need all the help you can give me than some, ok?" Ollie said before he rubbed his eyes.

He was too unsure of what to do next. This was a lot more to question for now. He wasn't going to be able to focus, but he was going to have to be able to relax and get to the bottom of the trap.

He was a lot more to focus on before now. He was going to question as of the second.

This was a lot more to handle as of now. This was going to be the focus of the time. This was such an odd thing. He wasn't sure of what to do next. This was an odd thing, he didn't.

This was just a laugh, it made him too unsure of what to do next. He was more and more focused on keeping her safe, unsure of what to do next before now.

However? He moved to the door next and slid it upon before he questioned what to handle next.

He rubbed on his eyes, too amused, too thrown off, this had been a lot more than he was used to and such things bothered him. he wasn't sure if such things could have been a focus for now. He didn't know what else could have handled it nor how much this was worse than it was over.

He didn't know what else was going to have to be focused on for now. This was such a horrible thing, only that it could be fixed, solved, taken apart… Such matters were private and it bothered her how little she knew about them.

Then again? Such matters were more private, more ensuring of what may or may not have come next. There was a lot more to have done and a lot more to have focused upon.

Yet? If Trivia felt as if there was a problem? Well, he'd handle it as would anyone. They hadn't the proper advantage. Such things had been too little and too late, not at least of course when all of it was over, how little and how late that had become when such things weren't properly over, nor had they been over for now. It'd be so terrifying if not for the fact that it could have ended this way. He didn't know what had been and what hadn't been, but he did know this was almost over and he just couldn't have waited long enough for it to have gotten to such a place… No, he had to get there. He always had a plan, always had one for getting out of here. Anything else was going to have been laid out later.

Yep, he didn't know what else was coming. He didn't know what to focus on before now. He didn't know what else was going to happen.

Trivia leaned on him as they looked out and into the rows of trees. Well, Trivia did at least. She frowned as he looked around, frowned while he tilted his head. He clicked his jaw and looked at her, too unsure of what to have told the woman.

Trivia leaned Hush across her shoulder as the two hummed, nodding as he tilted his head, making him hum as he looked around, too unsure of what to have said, to have done. How well this was going onwards.

He didn't know what else was over. He didn't know what the problem was. He hadn't the proper idea of what to have done next.

"We need to move, the longer we stay here?" Ollie stated silent as he sighed, leaning on the wall. "Mistral is full of people who want to kill you, slave you, or sell you on the black market," Ollie stated before he questioned what to have done and dusted.

Trivia tilted her head. He had more on his mind than she could see. This nightmare wasn't going to have ended before now. Such a cool thing, he was a lot more unsure. He wasn't able to have tilted his head. He was a lot more amused at her. He clicked his fingers, looking around before he tapped on his side.

He wasn't going to have been able to have relaxed. He wasn't going to let it come down to question for now. Such a small thing, yet he didn't wish to have gotten upon which he could have gotten to a few more details upon his mind. He had too much had far too much he questioned for now.

He had a lot more to understand before this came crashing down on his head. Such problems only scared him, they cut deep.

She tugged on his arm, turning him to her as she nuzzled up into his side like a kitten. It made him roll his eyes and place a hand around her side, hugging her as she smiled.

"We got to go, k?" Ollie asked as she drew another smile drawn across his face, "Good, then we keep moving until we get there. The easier we do that? The easier we can relax, then? We get out of here. Do you see any bad people? You fight or you get me, k? The people here want to hurt you, hurt you bad. You need to fight them…" Ollie said before he sighed.

He knew pretty damn well as of the time before now. It hadn't yet seemed to have been the same way this wasn't going to have gotten the same way it should have been. He wasn't sure if she'd be ready, but there was no damn way this was going to have gotten such a thing.

"What are you going to be, ok?" Trivia signed to which Ollie hummed, shrugging.

"As long as I have a buddy like you around? Yeah, I'll be good. Are you going to be good? You slept pretty damn good for someone who I told to get some sleep. No, you didn't feel like it." Ollie said, teasing the girl who elbowed him several times in the side, he chuckled, finding some mirth within the issue. He didn't know what else would be up their sleeves.

"Ow." He said as she giggled, her amusement evident on her face.

She wished he could see her face, see the mirth, the amusement, the enjoyment from all of this. She had to repay him. She'd steal some of those high-tech goggles if they had them. She knew he had saved her from a fate worse than death for it was over before he was over been over now. He hadn't the proper idea as of the second. He hadn't the proper idea before now as to what was to be done next, how to possibly get this problem as of now.

He had a lot more to question before he had yet to focus upon now. He had a lot more to deal with, more than he had wished for. Such things had yet to bother him, but for the time being? Well? They had much bigger fish to have fried and could have for now.

They had more to have focused on for now. He had a lot more to do, something else, for now, something that could have been more to have questioned for now. This was a lot more to have handled when this was done and over with now. They had a lot more to this. A lot more, something that had a problem.

She started to rib at his side while he shook his head, making him hold an arm. Such a thing had been odd, but it wasn't stupid. They had a lot more to come, a lot more to have focused on such a task. They hadn't a problem of now nor would that change anytime soon. They had such a mind that this couldn't change nor did he believe that such a thing could end properly.

He didn't know what else this was going to have focused upon. He hadn't the right idea. They had a lot to have focused upon. They had more to fathom anyway.

There were several dozens of rifle fires as he tilted his head before now. He sighed, cursing as he did so. Such a thing just ticked him off as Trivia looked that way for a second before she fell silent. There was a few moments of silence that made him tilt his head, too unsure of what to have said or what even could have come.

They had too much more on their mind, a lot more to have done, this was a lot worse than the alternate. They hadn't the proper focus as of now.

He tilted his head before he questioned before now. he tapped on his fingers as they slowly started to question before now. They moved further, deeper into the rest of the forest. She glanced at him, too unsure, too eager for what the mission would have been. They had a lot more to have questioned. There was a lot more to have done and there was a lot he didn't understand.

"If we don't get this done? We die, and if we die? People are going to suffer big time." Ollie said while he clicked his fingers. "If you know how to use that thing? Then I'm going to need help. These guys are a lot worse than those thugs we beat up and the crooked cops." Ollie said to which Trivia nodded before she tilted her head.

Such problems had been common. They had been on his mind far and far more. If anything? Well? It could have been a problem they ddint intend to fully have done and far too much was to be wasted on such a small touch.

Trivia nodded, looking around, too unsure, too eager to get ready. She wanted a fight, wanted to have gotten ready. It was too much to bear and a lot more to have
