Grimm Satisfaction

Chapter 5

The Training Begins

I opened my eyes sleepily and asked the ground, "Why I'm I… huaaaaaah… on the floor?"

"Ruby, just wake up already!" The yellow haired girl yelled before after off her bed.

"Oh, hey Yang," I said before setting my head against the pillow on the floor.

"Uggghhh!" Yang stomped right up to me, in a fit of rage, and tore off my blanket. She quickly took my pillow as well.

Bedtime is over now, huh. "Yang did you really have to do that?" I ask wishing for more sleep.

"Yes, I did have to wake you up. Dad has something important to tell us," Yang said impatiently before leaving the room.

Rubbing my eyes I walk over to the blanket and pillow on the floor. I pick them up and place them back on Yang's bed before following after Yang. Can't leave that on the floor.

Exiting the room I notice that my door is fixed. Opening the door I see that my room is almost the exact same as it was before the Beowolf. The carpet has claw marks on it, but it was fine. "Taiyang works fast," I muttered in amazement before closing the door.

As I enter the kitchen I remember that the Beowolf has numbers and letters above it. Do Yang and Taiyang have it too? Looking above their heads my question was answered, but more came up.

Yang Xiao Long

Level 5

Health: 110/110

Taiyang Xiao Long

The Setting Sun

?

?

Zwei was also there, so I took a look at his name as well.

Zwei

Guardian Angel

?

?

What? How is Zwei an angel? He doesn't even have wings! Why is that below their names and not Yang's or mine? I decided to ask the box later, because right now Taiyang wants to talk to me.

"Ruby come over her," Taiyang demanded before motioning to the couch.

Going over to the couch I noticed how Yang was already there. I got up onto the couch and Taiyang spoke curiously, "Yang has already told me a Grimm attacked and that you killed it. How did you do it?"

"Uhhh… I stabbed the Beowolf," I responded not knowing if my answer was good enough, "with a knife."

Shaking his head he asked, "How big was the Grimm?"

"It was the size of a wolf and looked like it was wounded," I said scooting close to Yang.

"Yeah, isn't it cool! My baby sister is killing Grimm already!" Yang said as if she had killed a Grimm before.

Taiyang adopting his serious expression spoke bluntly, "While it is impressive to kill Grimm at age six, you won because of shear luck."

"Really?" Yang asked.

Taiyang rolled his eyes at Yang's question, "Yes, very lucky. Ruby wouldn't have been able to defeat the Grimm no matter how hard she tried if it wasn't a weakened Beowolf. Not only that, but if she hadn't unlocked her aura she wouldn't be able to do much against it."

"Ruby unlocked her aura already? How, I thought only people could unlock aura," Yang asked in surprise. Then she began poking me to test if I had aura.

I wondered how that could detect if I had aura. "Yang, stop it," I said in annoyance before slapping her hand away. She continued anyway.

"Yeah Ruby has unlocked her aura. It may be for many different reasons, but what matters is that she has unlocked it. That means I only have to unlock yours," Taiyang stated before getting up from his seat, "Now stop poking your sister!"

Yang immediately stopped and went quiet. She has waited for this moment for years, but what confused her was this was supposed to happen when she was nine.

Taiyang began the fabled chant, "For it is in passing we achieve immortality. Through this, we become a paragon of virtue and glory to rise above all, infinite in distance and unbound by death. I release your soul and by my shoulder protect thee."

Yang filled with power decided that punching the vase next to her was a good idea. It shattered and on the floor. I recoiled in shock. "Look, my hand took no damage!" Yang called out before shoving her hand in my face.

"I just cleaned the floor, Yang!" Taiyang slammed his gauntlet into his face in irritation, "If you wanted to punch something you could have punched a tree or even me!"

Yang took that as confirmation that she could punch her father. She slammed her fist into her father's knee doing absolutely nothing, but irritating him further. "I would, but I do nothing to you," Yang said as if it justified breaking that vase.

"You know I think training you two to become strong Huntresses might be a bad idea," Taiyang mumbled leaning over to pick up the pieces of the vase.

"You're training us to become Huntresses!" Yang exclaimed excitedly ignoring the first part, "This is going to be amazing! I can't wait to get started!"

No wonder Taiyang is dressed in his Huntsman outfit. He never wears his weapons ,the Crimson Dragons, for fun. The crimson gauntlets with yellow dragons painted on them were for fighting and fighting alone. He never used them unless they were needed.

"Yes, you both are going to begin trading to become Huntresses," he sighed already knowing the answer to the question he was asking, "What I need to know is what weapons you are going to train with."

Yang was the first to answer, "Gauntlets of course! I want to beat down my opponents with fast, strong blows!"

"A Scythe," I answer just as thrilled as Yang, "I want to be as cool as Mom and D… Qrow!"

"Yeah, I kinda guessed that already," Taiyang stated before sitting back down in his chair, "Neither of you will be getting your weapons immediately, because will be starting out at physical and aura training. Afterwards you'll be given two weapons. A wooden weapon so you two can spar without seriously injuring the other, and a metal one for when you are fighting Grimm or whoever's teaching you. The final weapon you get will be a personally designed weapon that you'll have to put together."

"Why do we have to put the weapons together?" Yang asked already dreading the process.

"You are putting your weapon together to understand it better. Plus if a piece breaks off or it breaks you may be able to put it back together without needing to go to a weaponsmith," Taiyang answered before getting up again, "Ruby you can start training with your weapon earlier since Qrow will be back tomorrow. Once Summer gets back from her mission you can train with her."

"...Alright," I reply solemnly before getting off the couch.

"Now get dressed," he smiled evilly staring at Yang, "because we are starting physical and aura training."

Yang gulped nervously asking a very important question, "Am I being punished for breaking the vase intentionally?"

"Non, no, no, no. It's not punishment; it is training. You have to know the difference," Taiyang insisted.

It's definitely punishment.

Author's Note

You know I just got the thought of having Zwei slam a ROAD ROLLER into Taiyang. No idea why.
