Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Empty Empire. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth do.
Amaranth collided with Intransigent, Nav slid back. He panted and rested on his axe before Willow tapped her sword on the ground.
"What, you can't be tired already, we haven't even started." She stated, Nav growled and rushed at her with anger.
"I'm getting sick of all the implications! I should also point out that's the 7th freaking joke you've made around me in the past 2 hours!" Nav yelled while he slashed at Willow.
Willow easily slid under the slash before kicking Nav who slashed at her head, dropped the axe into his other hand and brought it up as an upward cut.
Willow blocked it before using a glyph to throw herself backwards. Nav flipped the axe which transformed into a lever action rifle, the single blade of the axe folded into the head.
He fired at Willow who swung her sword, parrying the bullets. She flipped from the elevated platform onto a white glyph which threw her over Nav.
He sighed and fired again, the underbarrel of the weapon firing a Fire Dust bullet. Willow was sent sliding back from the bullet which scorched the ground where it hit.
Nav turned his weapon back to its axe form and leaned it on his shoulder.
"You starting to take me serious, princess?" He said, his Aura flared slightly.
"You call me princess again and I'll show you how much I take you seriously." Willow said, she grinned and formed another glyph before rushing forward.
Nav parried her saber with his battle-axe, sparks flew from the blades while Willow vaulted off his right shoulder and bounced herself off another glyph.
Nav was barely able to block it before he twirled the axe. She went for an attack from another angle.
He pushed her back and managed to jab her with the butt of his weapon. Willow panted before Nav managed to sweep her leg and then land a roundhouse kick which pushed her back.
Her aura crackled a pale white which Winter panted at. She smirked.
"Your good enough to fight. We're done for today… Unless you want to go for round 2?" Willow purred, Nav blushed and flipped his weapon around before folding it down and in half.
He rested it on his back where it stayed and he walked out of the room.
"I think I'll pass; I'm going to talk with your dad… Least you didn't break my Aura." He muttered while he walked towards the office of the CEO.
Willow followed, putting her sword on her hip, she hadn't tested the gun function of the weapon.
"You know my dad is probably busy with the investors, right? He's the head and owner of the company." Willow said, Nav sighed and turned to face her.
"I don't know what else to do at the moment. You're the one who suggested we train, your telling your dad if we fight again." Nav said, he walked towards his room.
He pulled out his scroll, he had never gotten one before, Willow sighed as he started to try and use the tool.
"You know? I kind of think it helps if you know how to turn the scroll works… Crap, I forgot the SDC just made them as a prototype with the staff testing them." Willow muttered while Nav tapped the button which turned on the scroll before he looked at her and folded his scroll into his pocket.
"I'm going to look around, we have a few hours before I have to sleep and I'd like to stretch my legs." He said before he marched down the corner.
"I also don't want to hear another joke at the moment… Ugh, I got a headache, you hit like a train." He muttered before he vanished around the corner.
Willow watched her friend go before following him, curious as to why Nav thought he had the power to patrol the manor.
She enjoyed having another teen in the house, every single member of the staff was old. She knew they were mostly soldiers from the war, Nicholas had a habit of trusting his old army to be part of his manor employees.
She peeked around the corner and saw Nav walk past a group of doors. He was walking towards the library. Willow guessed that Nav would return to his room within 20 minutes to get dressed in night clothes before he walked around the manor.
She also knew most of the staff that wasn't security would be gone when he did. Nicholas had an entire branch of his personal that handled night operations. She smirked.
Nav did indeed walk back to his room and he sighed, he was tired, and his aura was still healing from fighting Willow.
It crackled a deep ocean blue before he vanished back into his room.
Willow went to go get dressed for night as well, smirking at the moment.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter done! I want to point out Willow and Nav are partners and Mantle has tech, but its new as your see. Next chapter will be on Saturday or so and will show Nav's first night at the manor and some of his and Willow's pasts. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
Ps: My next story will be on Raven or Winter. I will set up a Rwby poll on Thursday.
