Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Wolf and Reaper. Enjoy the 800-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.
(Vale, Beacon, 2 hours before No Brakes)
Azul sat away from the rest of his team before Quinn walked over, it was going to be night in 4 hours, and they were going to settle in and then explore the tunnels soon.
"You never said a word about the White Fang, Quinn…" Azul said, Quinn looked away from the fire and then to his team leader.
There was an awkward pause between the duo, Quinn spoke up a minute later.
"I think we all have some baggage we should let out, how about you, Azul?" Quinn said and the Faunus looked at him and sighed before folding his ears to his head.
"Not much to tell, Quinn. I grew up being hated by most people, you and I know Faunus aren't accepted in this life majorly. Ruby, well, you know how that went." Azul said, he twirled his scarf around his neck and Quinn was silent.
"Birthday gift?" Quinn asked, Azul nodded and smiled at the fabric.
"For my 13th birthday. She was the first real friend I had, second if you mention Yang. She taught me that theirs still hope for humans. I won't give the whole story now, not enough time for that. I will say this, Quinn if you did work for the Fang? I don't hate you, I used to think they could save us, show us what was right and what was wrong. I saw what they do now on TV, and I saw the attack at the docks, they aren't the same anymore." Azul said before he grabbed his Scroll.
"Tonight… Near midnight, I'll ask about your stories. Ruby said it will be night there soon, so I'm going to be talking with her before we call it a night. I want to say goodnight to my girlfriend before I pass out and she gives me an earful by tomorrow morning." Azul said, Quinn walked with him.
"I did talk a little with Vermillion and Jason. Jason doesn't have much to say about his past, but I can tell he wants to. Vermillion, well…" Quinn started to say, Azul turned from punching in numbers on his scroll to him.
"He has family issues I believe, not as bad as I heard Weiss might have, Quinn. I did talk to them a few times; Vermillion doesn't seem like he gets out much unless it's to buy Dust or train. He's used to fighting people and not Grimm." Azul muttered; Quinn was silent before Azul spoke up.
"I'm not a combat expert, but I know weapons and I know Grimm from the kills I've made. Quinn was slower in some of his swings, his sword was built for parrying another blade, not fangs and claws Beowolves have. Another giveaway is how much he relies on Dust; I only use mine for an emergency in case I need it so I don't run out. Quinn uses Dust for many of his moves and his sword was Cleary made for combating humans due to its design." Azul stated before he turned to Quinn.
"He's trained for fighting bandits, White Fang, and thugs, not Grimm. I'm not the best people person, but I can tell when someone is not used to combat. I've been around Ruby and other students at Signal." He said as the Faunus walked away and left the Bear Faunus to walk back towards the campfire.
"Azul! Guess what!? We saw a Giant Elephant Grimm, I so wanted to shoot it, but Oobleck said… Professor Oobleck, my bad, he said Crescent Rose wouldn't hurt it. I doubt that, but I didn't want to waste the ammo!" Ruby said over the scroll, Quinn turned to Azul who chuckled.
"Bad boyfriend, bad!" Ruby said before laughing as well, Azul smiled and looked at the scroll.
"Hey, I've been killing Beowolves all day, Rubes, and I had to deal with leading. I think I can laugh at my cute little girlfriend telling me about a Goliath." Azul said with a blush, Qrow told them about the massive Grimm. He just didn't know if the Grimm was real until now.
Azul walked back to his team, he said goodnight to Ruby and closed his scroll. It would be time for a team chats soon.
Little did he know what would happen tomorrow morning.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter is done! I know it's short, I intend for the chapter where they fight with RWBY in two chapters longer. The next chapter is going to have more information on the other members of AMET. I will possibly be putting this story on hold soon. The next chapter is in 1 week on Saturday. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
