Ethan yawned as he woke up in his Motel room. the Bullheads yesterday had closed so he had to tell the other's he'll be staying in a Motel for now. He stretched and Dressed for the the day.
Before long after checking out he booked a Ticket to Beacon. He was standing by the gates waiting for the Bullhead to arrive when his blood went cold.
He didn't let it show but he knew someone was watching him. He Rested his Hand in his Pockets Readying to cast his Magic just in case.
The Bullhead arrived and He speed walked to his Seat. His Black Blood turned colder as if sensing the one stalking him was nearby.
He tensed as it was clear he was going to get attacked. He scratched his head and Tussled his Hair over one of his Spider eyes. He opened it and looked through his hair to see it was a Pale skinned man. He had a Hidden scorpion tail and Hazel eyes. He Radiated insanity.
What is worse is that he was calm on the outside. Ethan tensed when Tyrian Looked straight at him. He closed his Eyes and sighed. He opened them to get up and head off to an open space.
'Alright fucker. What do you want with me?' He thought as he stopped Knowing full well the scorpion faunus was right behind him. They stood at a open area and Ethan Cast a Spell to shut him and the faunus off from the rest.
"Alright Asshole. Who are you and what do you want?" Ethan asks.
"Oh scary. But I'll entertain you. My name is Tyrian Gallows. See This Madko person thought it would be funny to annoy my queen. And since you're his adopted son I figured killing you would send the Perfect Message to him." Tyrian declares.
Ethan rolls his eyes and Presses his choker. Revealing his fully evolved form. All eight eyes opened. "And then what?" Ethan asks. "Oh I don't know. Maybe kill the rest of the people on the Bullhead. Would be fun honestly." Tyrian says. He suddenly blocks With the Queen's Servant's A Massive Laser Blast.
He Looked up to see Ethan was the one to fire it. "Like hell am I gonna let that happen." Ethan declares. His Fists become encased in B.L.C.'s of bigger fists with claws on them and rushed Tyrian.
Tyrian Grins and Blocks them off and Goes for a Stab with his Tail. Ethan dodged it and backed off to suddenly get rushed by Tyrian. Slashing and hitting his Carapaced Arms. Ethan Grunts and Breaths Fire to make him back off.
Tyrian Backs off and Grins. He begins to chuckle and laugh. "Ohohohoho this is certainly a Surprise. Real magic fire. Oh Lady Salem will surely appreciate it if I present you to her. Come here!" Tyrian Yells. Ethan backs Off and casts Ice magic through his feet. He suddenly shoots off through a Window from Icy pillars launching him.
He broke through and Cast fire magic through his palms to keep afloat. He watched as Tyrian Suddenly grew Black Nevermore Wings on his back. He tackled Ethan and He fought as Tyrian flew away.
Ethan bit Tyrian's arm making Him drop Ethan to cradle his own. Ethan Cast his Wisp Powers to make a Hardlight platform under him. He stood on it to see Tyrian was firing his weapons at him. Ethan pulled up a Wall and let the bullets hit his Wall.
Ethan focused and his Silver wings came into view. Tyrian stopped to watch in shock before Ethan suddenly Rockets forward. Punching him in the gut with flaming fists.
Ethan Followed that with a Left jab. then a Right. A Left to the chest. then a Right uppercut followed by an Ice enhanced kick.
Tyrian growled and Slashed backm Managing to Cut Ethan in the eye. He Watched as Ethan flew back to Hiss in pain. Tyrian looks to see his blood. "Your blood."
Ethan smirks as he regenerates his Face. The blood bubbling on his skin. "I know. It's black."
The blood Shot forward into Tyrian's Eyes blinding him for Ethan to rush and Stab him in the ribs. His Black blood injecting and Infecting Tyrian.
Tyrian screamed in pain as the Black blood kills him from the inside out. He flapped his wings to fire feathers at Ethan who let them hit him. They were absorbed into Him and sucked into his body. Tyrian's eyes were crying fresh black blood that flew into Ethan's Hand.
"Now, Die like the filthy pig you are." Ethan says. He used his lower hands to steal Tyrian's Weapons before he fell to the ground. The wings now ash and his body withered and shrunken.
Ethan absorbed the blood and felt his powers increase. He Saw very tiny feathers tough as steel grow in his eyebrows with bigger and longer feathers growing in his hair. His lower torso grew out black wings that flapped and kept him afloat.
His Silver gems in his back receded into him to reappear back in his palms. They where smaller and barely noticeable.
Ethan channeled his aura into them and Two Silver wings covered his hands. He Flapped his arms and lower wings to fly to Beacon.
(later)
Ruby finally hung up the last streamer for the surprise party for Ethan. Now she, Her team, Team JNPR, Velvet who she became great friends with, And Madko Had to wait for Ethan's Arrival.
She heard flapping and Knew it was Ethan. She pretended to check her phone for a Text a Said. "OK guys he's Nearby. He just texted me. Now hide." She says.
They do so and the room is darkened. Before long Ethan, Who was Changed back to his disguise form with the exception of his palm gems, opened the door to see the room completely dark.
"Huh? Why is it so dar-" "SURPRISE!" Everyone shouts. "JESUS!" Ethan yells in shock. Shooting feathers from his Tail that embedded deep into the wall.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Ruby yells as she tackle hugs Ethan. "Birthday? Wait..." "Yep!" Ruby says. "Happy birthday dude." Jaune comments.
Ethan was rightfully confused. "But I never told you when my birthday was." He comments as Nora slips a Party hat on his head.
"But I did." Madko says. "You bitch." Ethan scowls. "Oh no you don't buster. No sour moods here. Besides. Ruby and Weiss here got a Little Present for you." Yang says with a Teasing grin. "Huh?" Ethan says.
He looks to see that Ruby a Weiss hoisted a Long present wrapped up with Blue wrapping paper and a white ribbon.
"Really? While I appreciate the gesture I don't want you guys to waist money on me." Ethan says.
"So. That's a part of birthdays in general. So go on Bud. Open your presents already. Because we got a Delicious cake to eat soon." Yang says. Ethan tries to decline but sighs. "Oh alright. What the hell?"
Ethan took the package and played it down. Undoing the ribbon with one pull of the ribbon ends and tore off the paper.
Ethan raised and Eyebrow as he took out an Unusually thick Guitar case. Made of plastic and decorated with carvings. He moved the Wrapping aside to set the case down and Open the locks.
He gasps when he found an Electric Guitar with hardlight Axe blades.
He pulled it out to see that light and easy to use. "I noticed how you always liked that one Guitar from the game you keep playing without us knowing. So Me and Weiss thought to make our version for your birthday." Ruby says.Ethan Looks at the hardlight to see it was reflective and had his symbol on the flats. A Circle with a Sideways V and a Full color pupil in the V. Making an angry expression.
Ethan looked at it and chuckled. Before starting to laugh. "Uh Ethan? Do you not like it?" Ruby worriedly asks. "Like it!? I love it! I'm just laughing because I wanted to show you guys a Guitar I made dedicated to my team." Ethan said before pulling out his own Guitar.
Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang gasp at the art piece of a Guitar and Blushed at the appreciation.
"Now that is all set and Done I'm sure you want to give your axe a Go. But first we should get through with the rest of your presents." Madko quietly states.
"Heh, Yeah. This can wait for a Bit." Ethan says.
He set the Guitar's down and Went to the next one. A Simple box.
He Tore it open to see it was a set of Three Figma versions of himself. His human form before he evolved, his current form, and his final form that isn't powered down by his choker. "I noticed how you seem to like Stop motion animation and The way you make recreations of Figma with your semblance. So I though buying one set to be customized to look like you. And when you shown us your current form I knew it was gonna be a Challenge for the guy I asked to make them." Jaune says.
"Thanks." Ethan says. He had to admit. He looked damn fine. He noticed that the the tail had been made to be entirely flexible. He noticed his lower arms on them were separated and able to quickly attach with a Socket. and the hands came in ten pairs, three unique right hands, and Four unique left hands. and 10 faces.
"Damn these guys sure went all out on this." Ethan comments. "I know right?" Jaune comments. Ethan Set the Figma aside for later and went to the next gift.
"That one is from me. I did have to work with Madko here on it but it was the only way I could give it to you." Yang comments. Ethan Rose an Eyebrow at that and opened the small gift. It was set of Keys. "No..."
"Yep. I got you a Motorcycle! It used to be a prototype Bumblebee but now its yours." Yang says.
"Yang. You're my new favorite person. Sorry Ruby but you not the favorite anymore." Ethan jokes. "Oh that's cute. You thought a Bike was better than People." Ruby dangerously said. Ethan didn't flinch.
"Bitch I am a Sturgis fan through and through. You wanna tussle with my love of Motorcycles? Come at me bitch?" Ethan challenged. "Ethan!" Yang yells. "OH REALLY YOU SHIT TOOTHED ASSHOLE?!" Ruby yells. Butting her head against Ethan's. "RUBY?!" Everyone yells in shock.
"YOU WANNA GO? I'LL BEAT YO ASS TO KINGDOM COME!" Ethan goads. "OH I'LL FU-HUCKING GO BOY! I'LL MAKE YOU Re-" Ruby began laughing. Ethan right behind her. "OH! YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN YOUR FACES!" Ethan breaths out as they collapse on the floor or used each other for support as they belly laughed at everyone's faces.
"W-w-w-wha..." Yang stammers.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Weiss asks. while she does know what happened it was still jarring to hear her Swear.
Ethan finally answers wiping tears from his eyes. "We were originally gonna do this in the cafeteria but it was too good to pass up." Ethan explains.
Jaune began to chuckle and scowl. "Jaune?" Pyrrha asks. "Fu-hu-hu-huck." He chuckles before laughing as Well. his laughter was infectious and Soon everyone was Laughing.
After a While Ethan finally got to the next present and opened it. It contained a pair of Gauntlets with Knives for Fingers. An oversized Grenade lever on the back of the hand. the color scene was black with blue trim and Pink decorative lines.
"That one is mine. I made it myself. It was made with some spare parts lying around and is able to vent out jets of Flames from the lever on the back hand. Using your fire as fuel. Other then that its nothing much." Nora says.
"Thanks Nora." Ethan thanks her. He Sets it aside and goes to opening the rest.
From Velvet he got a Vintage camera and photo blanks to use for his travels. (Madko gave him an extra pocket that always has more blanks to use later) From Ren he got a Bonsai pot with a bonsai tree growing already. Pyrrha gave him a couple of new jackets in varying colors That compliment his team and Her team as well. Blake got him a lot of books he could read on his spare time. Weiss got him a Separate gift as well, a Scythe able to Channel Dust through the blade.
Ruby meanwhile did the same and got him a Full auto to single shot Shotgun that uses Dust vials as Ammunition. "This is quite the haul and I love it. Thanks a lot guys." Ethan thanks.
"Awe no problem dude." Yang deflects. "Yeah. It's just our way to show how much we appreciated you." Ruby says. Ethan smiles. 'Maybe I can find a Good family to be with.' He thought.
And scene.
