Vanir Argent: Vanir looked down at the line of Huntsmen and Huntresses who had managed to reach this stage of the tournament, Rennic looked incredibly pleased with himself for coming as far as he did. "Looks like this is a pretty good lineup." Mithril said to Vanir, her voice was excited. Vanir had to agree with her, at this point only the best fighters remained and he wanted to see the outcome.
When the two combatants for the fight were chosen Vanir knew it would be interesting Yang fought with fists and was at a slight disadvantage against Mercury who used his feet and legs. "This'll be good." Nexus said while leaning back in his chair. Yang and Mercury both took up their positions at the ends of the arena and soon found themselves fighting a very intense fight, things moved too fast for Vanir to keep track of, Nexus seemed to be doing a finer job of things.
Meanwhile Niren was stuck with Mordred and his associate who only called himself Malacci. "Why is he taking so long? usually if someone wanted to talk to him, he would be here." Mordred growled, annoyed at Vanir's lack of attention. "The past three years have changed him, he isn't the same person from back then Mordred." Niren said while sipping at the coffee that Talia had brought.
"So, how long will we have to wait?" Mordred asked. "As long as it takes for the fight to end, he doesn't want to see you for the most part Mordred." niren replied in a calm tone, he was terrified of what might happen should Mordred lose his temper. Mordred started to tap his fingers against the table out of boredom.
When the fight ended Vanir got up to leave the stadium with Mithril in tow, but then something strange happened, rather than leave the arena Yang punched Mercury in the leg and broke it, from his reaction Vanir could tell that yes the little shit was in pain, but that he had planned for it to happen. "Let's go." Was all he said while Nexus also got up to follow, casting a worried glance back at Yang and then at Ruby.
"Ah here they are." Niren said when Vanir, Mithril, and Nexus all appeared from the crowd that had been staring at the screen in silent shock. "If the amount of negative emotions spewing from there doesn't attract at least thirty Grimm, i will be impressed." Nexus said to Vanir before stopping when he saw Mordred. "Mordred?!" Vanir shouted while activating the Hades. "Calm down Vanir, he just wants to talk." Niren said after getting up and grabbing both his shoulders.
"I would just like to say, that the whole broad daylight attacks thing was not my idea, that belongs to Director Pendragon." Mordred said while looking down at the table. "Right… and i'm supposed to believe that you just now realized that the Knights are wrong?" Vanir said while pacing. "I still believe in the idea of them, but not their leaders, and besides you have bigger problems right now, like whoever keeps hacking into systems and leaving a black queen behind." Mordred said, he was now staring at Vanir with eyes pleading for a bit a belief.
"What do you mean?" Vanir said, the mention of that symbol had gotten his attention, as Niren had managed to out hack the person behind those several times. "Have a seat and i'll tell you everything i know." Mordred said while motioning towards a nearby seat. Vanir hated having to talk to rather than stab Mordred.
Note: Yes, it's a short chapter, but i wanted to get something out so i can move on with the story after the next episode of RWBY comes out, since it was doing some serious foreshadowing there. I look forward to the next massive fight the show has, so much to think of.
