Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Wolf and Reaper. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.
(Vale, Beacon.)
Azul looked at the Atlesian fleet while he cracked his back and then he hummed while he heard footsteps behind him. He hummed while he looked over his shoulder to see Ruby approaching him.
"Hey," Ruby said while she sat down next to him, he hummed again and turned to her while smiling.
"Hey, what's up? I'm still looking forward to which will be my next match." He asked, he continued looking over his scroll, something he had been doing before she had come over.
"You guys saw the next match, didn't you?" He asked while he looked around, Ruby looked at the Scroll.
"Yeah, I'm good," Azul stated, he smiled and hugged the crimson reaper who smiled while she buried her head into Azul's shoulder while trying to look at the scroll.
"You could ask," Azul said while the couple started watching the scroll while Azul tapped on starting to look at the rest of the fight.
Azul sighed before he rubbed at his eyes and then he sighed.
"I have no idea who we are going to fight next. I have no clue what fight is next, Rubes. I know we're going to be up next." Azul stated while he tapped his feet.
He groaned in pain, he yawned and then he walked away slightly.
"You haven't been sleeping in a while," Ruby said, Azul sighed. He turned to the side before folding his eyes under him. He tilted his eyes while he slowly looked at Ruby.
"I've been wondering what to do next. I've been going over and over while Roman is in jail. I don't think we're done yet. Rubes, you know that Roman has been backed by the White Fang. You know they are still a problem and I know for a fact that there's a lot more to deal with. I honestly doubt we've even got a clue on who's behind this…. I think they're going to cause problems in the future." He muttered; Ruby sat down next to him.
Ruby saw Azul pull down his hood and turn to look away before she pulled him back towards her.
"I know." Azul heard from Ruby, he put his claws in his mouth and looked at his teeth.
"Azul, you're being stupid," Ruby said, Azul chuckled with amusement before he cracked his spine. He turned to Ruby with pain in his back.
"Yes, I have been…. I've also been dealing with having my back hurt from sleeping on it wrong, I've dealt with nightmares… Ruby, I have no idea what I'm going to do tomorrow, and I also can't shake the feeling that something is off. Roman was captured and he ended up dropping crime to nearly nothing after he gets captured? I doubt all crime came from Roman, he might have started the crime wave, I doubt he had made a crime wave on his thoughts. You know a crime lord that draws all the police to him on PURPOSE?" He asked, Ruby was about to speak and shook her head.
"Yeah, so I know for a fact someone is behind them… I just don't know who could be behind it." He muttered and ran his fingers through his hair.
"I'm going to talk to Professor Ozpin, he'd know a lot more about what we're going to probably deal with in the future. We make one wrong move and we're going to be caught off guard. I might be wrong with Vermillion, but I doubt it. I have to be sure; I have to find out the truth. I'm going to come back in a few minutes or maybe an hour or so… I want you to stay here hopefully. I need to ask him and General Ironwood." He said, he stood up before Ruby followed him.
"I'm going to, we're going to have to go back to missions anyway after this is all done and over with. I would also like to see my boyfriend deal with his problems because his awesome girlfriend is telling him to stop worrying about every little thing and take things less seriously," Ruby said, she latched onto his arm, he sighed before smiling and leaning his head on hers.
"I'll stop it if you can stop being so adorable. You can rip a Beowolf off, but you are still so cute despite being a scythe sniper." He stated, Ruby pouted, and Azul chuckled with amusement once again.
"Rubes, you're not helping your case. You're not, you are being more adorable than you think you are." Azul said, Ruby, smiled while the couple walked inside. They didn't notice what was happening around them at the moment, their only concern being the happiness with each other.
Azul looked at the rest of his team who passed by him, he smiled again.
Azul's scroll vibrated in his pocket at that second.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter is done! I want to point out that Azul and Ruby might fight together in the tournament. I also want to point out the poll will be put up for 6 days. The next chapter will be by next Friday or so and will show Azul and AMET fighting FNKY or NDGO. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
