The night sky slowly pushed the day light away, allowed the darkness of the night to consume the city. But as the night emerged, the city's lights came up in perfect synchronization.
Asarirn stumbled out of the forest while he grabbed his chest. He was breathing heavily. The pain of his chest started to become unbearable. But, he just had to ignore for a bit longer. Enough, to get back to his base. But luckily, the base was just the other side of the street. He looked around to ensure no was watching. In one swoop motion, he crouched low before jumping high into the air, high enough to land on top of the building.
As he landed on the rooftop, he fell on to his hands and knees. The pain was too much to bear and but he was relieved to know, he made it back. Once more, he made a swift hand motion and the medical bag appeared on the ground. Once appeared, he started to take off his coat, revealing his face and his black clothing. The Silent Angels' coat are made out of magical treads that allowed the coat to repair themselves, once damaged. Its to ensure for the member to keep their uniform and saved money on cloth. But the only difference was there was a tear mark on his black shirt.
He took off his shirt to reveal a huge claw mark on his chest. He thought, the mark was from the Big Beowolf's attack before Asarirn performed the final attack. But that doesn't matter to him. The enemy is gone, so that's what matters for now.
Asarirn reached into his bag and began searching for items. He stopped as soon as he pulled out the brown bandages. I could use these. But that means, I have to rest to recover. And I don't have time to rest. He stated to himself before putting back the bandage. He proceeded to search in his bag, once more. After a bit, he found a small jar of purple jelly substance. Staring at the jar, Asarirn knew exactly what it was.
"This will do. But, it's going to hurt a lot." He stated before pulled out a small rag.
Over by the ledge of the building, Asarirn leaned against the wall. He placed the small rag into his mouth, before opening the jar. He scooped up some of the jelly onto his fingers. Asarirn paused for a moment to take in a deep breath. He thought to himself that this is going to hurt: a lot.
After he focused his mind, he immediately stuff the jelly like substance directly into the wound. His body jerked as he screamed from the stingy pain in his chest. Lucky enough for Asarirn to have the rag in his mouth to prevent much of the scream to be heard. Looking back at the wound, he noticed that only a small section of the wound had be filled. He had much to go through. At this point, his breathing started to increase due to the pain. But he must press on, to him, he must finish what he started. Continued to fill his wound with more of the jelly, which caused the pain to increase. That caused Asarirn to scream more and more.
"Hey, did you hear that?" A voice Asarirn heard that caused him to stop and froze in place, even though the pain still persisted.
Asarirn looked over the ledge of the building and saw the Team RWBY emerged from the forest. He noticed that Blake was searching around while everyone else gave her a confuse look.
"Hear what?" Yang asked.
"I thought, I just heard someone was screaming in pain off to the distance.
The whole team stood by the trees and attempted to listen for the scream for at least for a minute. During the whole time, Asarirn continued to watch the team while keeping himself quiet but still bared the pain.
"Well I don't hear anything at all," Weiss was the one to break the silence.
"I guess, I'm just that tired then," Blake said with a small laugh.
"Well then, let's get a move on team," Ruby commanded and tried to be cheerful for her teammates. This gave everyone a smile before started walking back toward Beacon.
Asarirn let out sigh by the sight of the girls leaving. Once they left, Asarirn finished filling the wound with the jelly. He left the jelly sat in his wound for a while, breathing heavily by the stingy pain.
After a couple of minutes had passed by, Asarirn grabbed the rag he used in his mouth and started to wipe away the jelly substance on his chest. As he wiped the jelly off his chest, the wound on his chest is gone. No cuts, No scar, like nothing happened to him.
He put back his black shirt on, even though the tear was there still, before rested by the wall of the door. He stared into the cold night sky, letting the moonlight shine upon his face. Letting the black hair and brown eyes glistered by the night sky. He continued to stare into the star night before his eye lids started to weigh down into sleep.
RWBY's dorm
The team entered the respective dorm room, each of them felt both tired and defeated.
"Finally," Yang let out a yawn as she walked up to her bed, stretching. She kicked off her boots before climbed onto her bed. She literally face planted her pillow in order for to rest.
"Yeah, we should all be grateful, we made it back in one piece," Blake stated as she walked to her drawer to gather her sleepwear.
"True, but that doesn't stop us from going to classes tomorrow," Weiss said sounding tired. Everyone groaned by Weiss' comment. Well, everyone expect for Ruby, who appeared to be pondering about something.
Ruby continued to ponder about the events earlier that day and tried to find out a way to convince the others that there was a guy in black who saved them. Her mind and eyes trailed off and settled upon Weiss, who started to undo her dress by started to take off her jacket. Once Weiss had her jacket off and slid the strap to pull down her dress, Ruby noticed Weiss' bandaged back. By that sight, that gave Ruby the evidence she needed to prove.
"Aww Ha!" Ruby pointed at Weiss. Everyone flinched by the sudden outburst from Ruby.
"What?" Weiss questioned Ruby's sudden outburst.
Ruby slowly walked up to Weiss which caused Weiss to be unease by Ruby's action. She stopped next to Weiss before speaking.
"I can prove there was a guy in a black coat," Ruby said confidently. Which caused everyone to groan by Ruby's imagining person.
"Hey! At least hear me out on this," Ruby begged.
"There is nothing that you could prove that this was a so called "mysterious guy" being there," Weiss stated. By this time, Yang turned her head, from her pillow, toward the rest of her team.
"I can prove it with this," Ruby said as she pointed toward Weiss' bandaged body. Everyone looked at her with a confused look before Blake broke the silence.
"And what does this prove?" Blake tried to understand Ruby's evidence.
"That I didn't do it,"
"What?" Weiss sounded confuse.
Ruby reached into her pouch on her belt and pulled a roll of white bandages.
"See," Ruby held the roll out to her team. Blake walked to Ruby and grabbed the roll and examined the roll.
"This hasn't been used," Blake stated.
"Ruby probably carried extras," Weiss explained. Yang continued to stare at her team with her tired eyes.
"Also, my bandages are white, not brown," Ruby explained. By Ruby's statement, everyone was surprise to see it was true, even Yang jumped up from her bed by what Ruby had said.
"Wait. So are you telling me that you let an unknown stranger come by and take off my dress, in order to dress my wound?" Weiss sounded angry and also at the same time, she blushed slightly.
"Aww…yes…" Ruby was afraid to answer.
"How could you let this happened!?"
"It wasn't my fault, he put to sleep and-"
"Wait," Yang interrupted her sister. "This guy put you to sleep?"
"Well, I could say it was my fault for that," Ruby started to explain. "I sort of talked too much." For that, Ruby kept to herself based on what Asarirn said.
It's better if I don't get to know you and you don't get to know me.
"Sound like a rapist to me," Yang sounded concern for her little sister.
"Agree," Weiss agreed.
"But, that doesn't make any sense," Blake rebutted.
"How?" Weiss questioned
"Well, who goes out of the way to save us from the pack of Beowolves? Then goes out of the way to treat our wound. Just to rape us?" Blake explained
"Well true," Yang agreed. "Ruby why don't you explain what happened back there?"
"Okay. Well, after you guys fell unconscious, it was only me to defend off the pack and the big one. Then, everyone heard a loud whistle from within the trees. "
"That's when the mysterious guy appeared?" Yang asked.
Ruby nodded.
Blake thought to herself, Could it be the guy I heard in the trees earlier?
"But, no one took him seriously and continued to focus on us," Ruby continued. "Then, like it felt like a flash, he took out the whole pack. Leaving only the big one left."
"Whoa, what weapon he was using in order for him to take out so many Beowolves that fast?" Yang sounded amazed and awaked.
Took only a moment for Ruby to remember before answering, "I think it was a blade that appeared to be made out of ice or something that can transform into different type of weapons."
Weiss widen her eyes in surprise by Ruby's description of the mysterious guy's weapon and thought to herself, No… it can't be that blade.
"Weiss?" Ruby asked that caused her to break her trail of thought.
"What," she responded.
"You were spacing out," Yang stated.
"I was thinking about something, then what happened?" Weiss asked to avoid any question.
"Ok, well anyway, the guy managed to go up against the big beowolf with ease, even managed to parry all of the claws attack with intense speed. He even kill the beast with his blade turned into a scythe. Which I thought it was really cool."
"So after he killed it, what did he do?" Blake asked, wanting answers.
"He started to work on your guys' wound and didn't want to make any small chit chat. And then, that's when I started to talk too much, which cause him to put me to sleep."
"How?"
"I don't know, he just moved his hand in front of my face and the next thing I knew, I just fell down and slept."
"Did he just left after that?" Yang asked.
"No. After I woke up, I saw him started to leave before you guys woke up. Like he was watching over us during our nap." Ruby stated.
Everyone thought to themselves in silence for a minute before Weiss broke the silence.
"As I like to think about this mysterious guy as much the next person," Weiss said. "I think we should change our bandages and get some needed sleep."
"Yeah, I agree with the snow queen here," Yang sounded tried once more. "We can talk about this tomorrow. I would like to get some rest."
Everyone agreed by that plan and started to unravel their bandages. Blake was the first to uncover your bandage.
"It's gone…," Blake stated.
"What's gone?" Ruby asked. Blake turned toward the group to reveal her injuries, the wound on Blake's stomach was gone. That caused everyone else to be surprise as Blake was. This caused everyone else to shred through bandages to reveal their injuries. The same for them, their wounds were gone also.
"Ok, this is freaky," Ruby said.
"At least, we don't have any scars. I will say this is a good thing," Yang said rather cheerfully.
"I had enough surprises for one day. I going to bed," Weiss said rather annoyed.
Everyone else soon followed, each changed into to their respectful sleepwear. Each gone to their bed and then each one started to sleep, well everyone expect for Ruby. Ruby just laid in her bed, pondering about the whole experience.
"I didn't even get to ask the guy about my dream," Ruby said to herself. Ruby continued to lay in her bed for a bit longer, hoping to not get the same nightmare again. Soon, she fell into a peaceful sleep like everyone else.
Meanwhile
In the very same evening, a man sat behind a desk. The man had white hair and wore a green suit. The man is Professor Ozpin, headmaster of Beacon. The man was doing his usual business, working through paperwork and such. Soon, he took a moment to pause when a blonde hair woman, who wore a white blouse and black business skirt, entered the room. She walked up to Ozpin's desk and placed a mug of coffee.
"Thank you, Glynda," Ozpin said as he picked up his mug while staring into the paper work.
"I see, you have been slammed with paperwork again," Glynda said as she looked through her scroll.
"Well, this is the life of a headmaster," He stated. "Besides, should you be heading home? It's started to get late."
"You should know by now, I'm here for the meeting to discuss the recent incident that happened the last week," Glynda said as she placed her scroll on his desk, showing the files to Ozpin. The files contained information about three mysterious people suddenly appeared in Vale. A video was shown that one was killed by the other two. Then, a flash of light which caused the camera to go out. The files also contained about the concern safety of the people.
Ozpin glanced at the information for a moment before he turned his seat around. He held his mug with both his hands and stared out his window at the city of Vale. Truly a beautiful city to be in, he thought to himself. "Yep, this is going to be interesting," Ozpin said to himself. Glynda Goodwitch simply stared at the headmaster with a confused look, mostly a concerned look.
After a couple of minutes had passed. Ozpin took a drink from his mug, letting the taste of sweet coffee drifted him away from reality. Ozpin allowed his mind to wondered off until the desk started to make a beeping noise. A small screen popped with three dark figures behind a large desk. Ozpin simply ignored them for a bit longer until one of them yelled out.
"Ozpin!" A man yelled at Ozpin in attempt to his attention.
Ozpin let out a sigh expecting some bad news, before turning himself toward the screen. "Yes, Councilman?"
"How are you going to approach this situation, Ozpin?" The man question. A picture appeared on the screen, shown a man in a black hooded coat killing the other man in the same coat.
"I don't have time to deal with this. I have an academy to maintain and many stacks of paper to sort through," Ozpin stated.
"Let your assistant handle that task," the man stated. Glynda was about to say something but Ozpin cut her off.
"She is busy with her teaching here at Beacon," Ozpin explained.
"We have more important matter to discuss with the current situation at hand," the man said with a irritate tone.
"We appointed you headmaster for a reason," A woman voice explained. "For you to ensure the safety of the people."
"Is that all, Councilmen?" Ozpin questioned, wanting to end this little meeting.
"Don't let us regret our decision your position as headmaster," The woman stated before the screen disappeared.
"Why, do you have to make them mad?" Glynda questioned. "Well, the information indicated from the body that was recover, couldn't be identify. Even the database of the other kingdoms couldn't identify the corpse.
"I believed there are more to it than we thought."
"How?"
"Ah, let time do tell us what happen next," He said as he got up from his seat. "Shall we?" he said as he made a gesture to Glynda. She only made a small nod in respond. The two of them left the office, ending their day to await a new.
