- Morning. Patch. Home -
-Souma Uchiha's POV-
(David Bowie - Let's Dance)
*Alarm ringing*
The first thing I hear is the voice of David Bowie singing into my ears. I slowly get up and do a light stretch...
*Yawn*
Hmmm ah today is the day I move to Signal City. I got up and do some exercises, after I'm done I took of my shirt and walk towards my table...I look at a picture of Yang, Ruby and I and smile. I take my clothes and get ready for a shower.
Ruby: "Morning Sou...ma..."
I see a drowsy Ruby walking with a messy bed hair. She walking downstairs...ah I grab her shoulder and guide her to the toilet and kiss her cheek...her face immediately turn red as a tomato.
Souma: "Morning to you too."
I then hear a loud crash coming from Yang's room, I knock and slowly open her door to see her room in an utter mess...did a tornado struck the room?
Souma: "What's wrong?"
She looks at me with tears in her eyes.
Yang: "My bracelets that dad gave to me is missing?"
I look at her and give her a soft smile. I walk towards her pants that she left on the floor, she wore this yesterday...now if my guess is right.
Souma: "Found it. Here"
I toss her the bracelets, she catch it and give me a wide smile. She runs and hug me tightly and giving me a kiss on the cheek...
Yang: "Thanks!"
She left the room to do her morning jog.
I shrug and head to the bathroom.
Tai: "Souma, bring your bags down when your done showering.
Souma: "Alright dad."
I open the door to the bathroom.
As I enter I see a large eye staring at me.
(Music Stop)
"It": "Big day huh?"
I ignore him and take off my clothes.
"It": "Are you still upset that I didn't help you with that genjustu that day? No one force you to read it...it was your own curiosity...beside it wasn't a complete waste."
I turn the valve and let the hot water bathe me...ah...I feel relax.
"It": "At the very least you learn how to obtained the Mangekyō Sharingan."
I stop showering and enter the bathtub ignoring its word.
"It": "...Real immature I must say."
Souma: "Can't help it...I'm just a child after all."
"It": "An ungrateful one at that...or did you forget what I did for you? If it weren't for me you still be stuck in that ruin asleep...or worse dead."
I close my eyes as the warm water calms me...I submerge and let the water take me. I open my eyes to see "It" looking down on me from the ceiling. I slowly emerge and ran my hands through my hair putting it back.
Souma: "I have never forgotten what you did...I owe you a great deal. You've taught and protected me."
"It": "Then let me help you obtain the Mangekyō Sharingan."
Souma: "No! You of all people should know I would never harm those I love for the sake of powers, I don't need it if that is the price..."
I look down to see my reflection, the ripple waves masked a conflicted heart...do I really have to kill someone I'm close too...for the sake of evolving my eyes...
"It": "Oh come now Souma, with those eyes you can truly be the greatest Huntsman in whole of Remnant.
I got out of the bathtub and proceed to dry myself...I brush my teeth and head straight back into my room.
Leaving "It" behind.
"It": "...You may reject the idea Souma...but sooner or later when your heart is hellbent on protecting those you love. Your desire for it will come, and when it does I hope don't suffer much for it."
"It" closes its eyes and hides itself once more.
-Ruby Rose's POV-
After I left the toilet I recall back the sudden kiss Souma gave me...aaaaarghh...how embarrassing..why does he always tease me that way?
Yang: "Hey Rubes?...What's with you?"
I shake my head cooling myself down as I see Yang walk towards me I notice her hairstyles is that of a ponytail...ah her bracelets does look good on her. She's currently wearing a yellow sport jacket with a black shirt and blue jeans.
Ruby: "That's rare, you never wake up this early."
Yang: "Well, Souma will be moving soon so I want to spend as much time as I can before he leaves."
She gave me a light chuckles before switching on the television.
I then hear Souma coming downstairs I look up to see him carrying his bags down. He's wearing a black jacket and jeans with white shoes. His shirt however is a white shirt with an Autobot symbol on it...he sure loves Transformers.
Souma: "Hey Ruby. I've change the water in the bathtub for you, you best take it before it gets cold."
I immediately look away blushing...that kiss is still in my head.
Souma: "Ruby?"
Ruby: "I'm gonna go take a bath now!"
I ran from him...
-Souma Uchiha's POV-
Huh...that's strange?...Was it the kiss? Ah well. I turn to see Yang watching television.
Yang: "So..big day huh? Moving into a new city, learning to become a Huntsman...getting the girls."
I look at her weirdly
Souma: "Yang...I'm seven you expect me to go to a bar and find a pretty girl?"
Yang: "What...scared of a city girls?..get it."
I laugh at her puns...gonna miss hearing it when I move.
Tai: "You all ready?"
We turn to see Dad carrying my bags.
Souma: "Yea...waiting on Ruby."
Ruby: "COMING!"
I hear running footsteps we turn to see Ruby all dressed up. She's wearing red jacket and black T-shirt with a black skirt.
Tai: "All right we're all here. Let's move we'll get breakfast along the way."
The three of us nods and made our way to port and head on to Signal City.
-Signal City-
After we had our breakfast we immediately head for my dormitory there I see a familiar face.
Souma: "Lily!?"
Lily: "Souma!?"
She turn her head and look with a surprise look on her face she walk towards me smiling.
Lily: "What are you doing here?"
Souma: "I'm moving in...I'll be attending Signal Academy tomorrow."
Lily: "WHAT!?"
Her eyes turn white when she heard me.
Souma: "Didn't you know, huh I thought uncle Qrow told you since he's your teacher."
She suddenly give off a threatening aura...and grind her teeth.
Lily: "No he didn't."
Her fox ears begins twitching when she saw my dad and sisters.
Tai: "Oh hey Lily, nice to see you."
Lily: "You too sir."
Yang gently jab my waist looking restless.
Yang: "Who is she?"
Souma: "Lily Walker, a student of Signal Academy."
Lily: "Nice to meet you, you must be Yang and the shy one must be Ruby. Souma told me about you when he last visited."
I turn to see Ruby hiding behind dad's leg.
Lily: "How did you managed to enrolled to Signal Academy?"
Souma: "Recommendation."
Lily: "Lucky."
I see her cutely pout, I laugh but felt Yang stepping on my foot looking slightly annoyed. Lily saw this and begin grinning.
Lily: "Well I'll talk to you later I have to go now, my friends are waiting for me, see you later Souma. Bye , Yang and Ruby."
She wave goodbye as she left.
Tai: "Well...she's nice girl...I wouldn't mind if you plan on making her my daughter-in-law."
Tai suddenly felt multiple kicks coming from both Yang and Ruby...the two of them are fuming.
Tai: "OWW! OKAY! I GET IT! IT'S JUST A JOKE!"
I can only smile wryly as I watch.
After a few hours of moving my stuffs in I eventually have to say goodbye to them.
I walked with Yang and Ruby to see them looking sad.
Souma: "Hey what's wrong?"
Yang: "...Nothing just thinking how boring it'll be without you."
Ruby nods as well agreeing to her words.
Souma: "I see, well nothing much I can do there. Like I said I'll come and visit during the weekends...in the meantime do train I want to see you girls reach your highest potential...who knows, you might enter Signal Academy through recommendation."
The girls smiles
Yang: "Then make sure you'll be the best at Signal Academy!"
Souma: "Alright. Easy."
I said it with a cocky smile.
Ruby: "Mom also said to practice your violin, when she return she wants to hear you play."
Souma: "Of course Ruby, I've been practicing."
Tai: "Alright girls, it's time to leave the ship is leaving soon. I'll see you tomorrow Souma."
I nod..I look down to see the girls looking downcast.
I walk up to them and hug them tightly.
Souma: "Hey, your big brother is going to be the world greatest Huntsman."
The girls then smile and hugs back.
Ruby: "I'll catch up to you Souma! I'll be the world greatest Huntress so we can save the world together."
Yang: "Yeah..what she said...also, I'm the eldest!"
Yang then puts me in a headlock...oh someone..save me.
Dad merely laughs at my predicament.
-Menagerie. Night.-
-3rd person POV-
A tall and muscular man can be seen reading through some documents in his office his has a black hair and a well kept beard. He soon hear a knock on his door.
?: "Come in."
He took off his reading glass to see a familiar face.
?: "Ah, Kali you're here. Did you put her to sleep."
Kali: "Yes, Ghira my love. You should have seen your daughter's face when we told her we'll be going to Vale next week, she's so excited since this will be her first time going out of this country...it'll do her good to escape...*sigh* the trouble the White Fang is going through."
A beautiful woman stand in front of him with a warm smile on her face. Her cat ears twitches from time to time...it's due to the cold night.
Ghira: "Is that so? Well I still think it's a bad idea bringing her out there considering the tension between the Faunus and the Humans. Sienna has not been making things easier of late."
Kali: "Oh come now, you know that she's always coop up inside her room reading after training..she doesn't have that many friends her age. It'll be good for her to get out and see the world."
He stands and smile
Ghira: "Yea...your right maybe leaving and taking a vacation might be right call. I do need a break from all of this."
She smile and kiss his cheek.
Kali: "Come now, we should head to bed."
He shook his head.
Ghiara: "Later...I still have to sort these documents out...with the discovery of that ancient ruin, it's my responsibility to retrieve any relics that have any connection to our heritage. Also, let's us not forget despite us going there on vacation the real reason would be in search for this young man that had lived in that ruin...it took awhile to convince those in Vale especially that General in Atlas, he's very protective of the boy."
Kali: "I see, maybe we should introduce him to Blake...I'm sure the two of them will be great friends from what I heard from the rumors, he's a promising young lad. To enroll at such a young age."
Ghira: "Indeed, the youngest the world had ever seen, because of that the boy attract unsavory problem like those in Vacuo."
Kali: "Ah well..I might we can relax while were there. Goodnight my love."
Ghira: "Yes...goodnight."
-Blake Belladonna's POV-
(Music Continue)
I'm currently reading under my blanket with a torch in my hand...I'm reading the history of Vale as well as the history of Signal City...It seem like a nice place. Hopefully, I'll make friends when I'm there...I'm so excited that my ears won't stop twitching.
Signal City! Just you wait!
-Souma Uchiha's POV-
I place a picture frame of the three of us together before we left...I smile and look around my room. So this will be my new home.
I slap both my cheeks.
Alright the journey to become the world's greatest Huntsman begins tomorrow.
I look at my Violin case on my bed...I took the violin out and gaze at it.
Souma: "Looks like you'll be keeping me company my friend."
I place my violin on my shoulder...
I pull the string with my stick.
