Chapter 6 Beacon
(Time skip: three weeks later)
(Location: Emerald forest Vale Remnant)
The Flash was speeding through the vast forest passing a large amount of Grimm. The speedster wasn't surprised they were given a mission to clean up the forest from the creatures and keep it to a minimum amount. It was necessary to do so because it needed to be done, the forest is supposed to be prepare for the upcoming new students one week away. Of course he didn't minded doing such task he always love the challenge the Grimm are too slow for him. What he didn't like was when he and Oliver arrived at the top of the hill to meet up with the headmaster and Ozpin has actually sent them flying on a launching pad. It made him question the sanity of the headmaster.
Asides from that time when they first arrived in Remnant this was this first time he has seen so many of the creatures in one place. They were the exterminators and he won't argue with the task this was a whole lot better than all that reading and studying since he and the Oliver were preparing themselves to become teacher assistant. The thought was still bothering the speedster to do the part they needed to have the necessary knowledge to claim the position. He was still wondering how Professor Oobleck can move so fast, either it was his semblance or too much caffeine in his system because the man is always drinking coffee 24/7. The results were trying to keep up with him when he starts talking in motor mouth mode.
The scarlet speedster easily dodge any attacks from beowulf and Ursa and used his fast punches to take them down. He followed doing the same with the large pack of Grimm creatures that were after him. When they were all taken care off he went to the next location he knew Oliver was probably having some difficulty since basically the entire forest was filled with the dark creatures. The was why it was for the best to reduce their numbers before the new student's arrival. The speedster went to another location and took on the same number of Grimm without a problem, he grinned happy with his work.
"Everything's have been taken care of on my side."
*Good for you I still have my hands full.*
"Need a hand?"
*Just keep patrolling there are more Grimm in this forest than we might think.*
"Roger."
(Scene change)
The Arrow had his hands pretty full dealing with so many Grimm, though it wasn't the first time he has fought so many opponents at once. Luckily Ozpin has given him a new quiver that can hold up to fifty arrows which he was going to need. The archer vigilante has also made new types of projectiles using a different variety of dust and he wasn't going to hesitate in using them. He was currently running from a pack of beowulfs trying to find the higher ground he was all about having the advantage over the creatures. As it wasn't bad enough for the hooded archer he was met by a pack of Ursai ahead making him groan mentally, not exactly what he was looking forward to. But maybe things weren't so bad already coming up with a plan.
He fired a regular hitting an Ursai in the eye, followed by hitting a beowulf with his bow on the head more Grimm were behind it. The vigilante used the small arrows stored in his green leather gloves throwing three at the incoming beowulfs making a direct hit. His plan started when he noticed all of the Grimm were closing in on him he jumped at the top of a tree branch and fired one of his custom arrows that cause a huge flash bang. The creatures were all blinded giving the hooded archer the time he needed to picked one of his explosive dust arrows. He released the arrow causing an explosion that caught all of them in a blazing fire. Once that was taken care of the vigilante went to look to his next target, he was glad to be doing hard training before the semester in the academy begins.
The archer saw his scroll beeping having a new message.
*There are two Nevermore in the forest, take only one out. The other is to be save for the new students.*
"Time for some Nevermore hunting" he knew all about the giant bird Grimm thanks to the knowledge of Professor Port.
(Scene change)
Ozpin and Goodwitch were watching the progress of the two vigilantes through their scrolls. It was thanks to the small wireless surveillance cameras placed all over the Emerald forest. So far the headmaster was pleased with the result of their work he knew he could place his trust in them. Normally he will give this task to Port and Oobleck but he decided to do things differently this year making the vigilantes do it for the two professors. Eliminating Grimm in the forest was important because the numbers of the creatures while increase so it was necessary to cut those numbers in half, especially when new students will arrive and thus this was the stage for their initiation test.
However the headmaster has noticed the blond teacher was feeling uneasy. He knew she has been like this for a while she was hard to convince when it comes to finding potential candidates. It was part of her strict nature and even if the vigilantes have done a very good work through the months since they started working for Ozpin she still has her doubts regarding the two. She knew better than anyone how important it is to been a huntsman and a huntress and the responsibility was to protect the people against any threat, mainly the Grimm. The blond huntress adjusted her glasses still gazing at the screen from her scroll and admitted they were doing a good job.
"Everything's all right...for now."
"I think they're doing a marvelous job wouldn't you agree Glynda?"
"They're been a bit reckless."
"You will never be please with their results."
"It's not about been please it's about been cautious. We know they have what it takes when it comes to fighting criminals or saving people but what about the Grimm?"
"As you can see they're work is satisfactory against the Grimm, as expected from the Arrow and the Flash."
"Still they're too young for been place for such a responsibility."
"Everyone starts at a young age, it was no different with us."
"They're just children..."
"They're not children Glynda. One can see it when gazing in their eyes, there's a lot of maturity and experience. Perhaps they have endure a lot more than we can imagine. Though I feel there's more to them than they let out to be."
"What is it?" Goodwitch noticed his tone was off something was definitely bothering him.
"It's nothing...I will leave any further assumptions for another time."
The blond huntress gave a sigh she knew she will have to talk to him about it later.
"Hm...It seems things have become quite interesting" the headmaster gave a smile seeing the vigilantes in a tight position.
"You have a way with words Ozpin, it should be call dangerous than interesting" the blond woman knew the vigilantes were in a bind.
(Scene change)
The Flash was having a small problem at first he was very confident. He was able to take down two Ursai and an Ursai major but now he was facing a bigger problem. The speedster was successful in finding one of the Deathstalkers that resides the forest, his task was to defeat it and let the other one live so it will be safe for the first year students who will arrive one week from today. It was difficult to hit the large Grimm because all of his punches weren't doing a thing to it, his thick armor was really strong. Now he thought about his options to stop it, he could gather enough speed to unleash his ultimate punch, or like Cisco name it "the super sonic mega punch". But seeing that there were too many trees he didn't have the space he needed to increase his speed.
There was the second option hit it from underneath where the creature didn't have any armor. The scarlet speedster gave a grin going with the third option which it was burning the scorpion Grimm to a crisp, there was a way and he knew exactly how to do it. He remembered when he was hit by that freeze ray from General Eiling he ran a circle nonstop creating a large fire tornado able to melt the ice from his body. The vigilante dodged the tail stinger from the Deathstalker he immediately ran circles around it without thinking of stopping. His speed managed to create the same fire tornado making the scorpion to be engulf in a fire, it made a high screech proving that it was in pain. Afterwards the Flash stopped used his arms to stop the fire he created from spreading through the forest. He smiled seeing what was once the Deathstalker completely burned.
"Deathstalker extra crispy" he reached for his scroll.
"This is Flash I'm done with the Grimm from my area, heading back."
*Well done we'll be waiting for you at the top of the hill* replied Ozpin.
"Got it."
(Scene change)
The Arrow wasn't having a good day as he managed to defeat the Grimm he was assigned to reducing their numbers greatly, he only needed to defeat one more. Which it was quite big he was currently fighting against the Nevermore. The hooded archer was running dodging the sharp feather the giant bird was throwing at him, from his position it looked like it was impossible to defeat it. Using an explosive arrow from his distance wasn't going to bring enough damage to kill it he needed another strategy. He already figured out how to beat it but to do so he needed to make the bird Grimm to lower its altitude. The archer hide behind a tree making sure the Nevermore didn't see him from high above.
It didn't took long for the bird Grimm to lowered its flying altitude because it couldn't see its prey. The Arrow was pleased that it was able to lowered its guard he has placed an arrow with ice dust placed on the tip. He fired it, the result the Nevermore's left wing was frozen making it fall the vigilante quickly fired another freezing its right wing before it hit the ground. Without its wing the Grimm couldn't fly much less used its feather attack it gave a screech meaning it was upset. The winged creature was now pretty much defenseless and the hooded archer stood a few feet away placing an explosive arrow.
"Farewell" he fired the arrow hitting the Nevermore as it exploded.
The archer reached for his scroll" I'm done with the Nevermore I'm heading back."
*Well done Mr. Queen we'll be waiting for you at the top of the hill.*
(Scene change)
The green hooded archer arrived at the top of the hill where he and Flash were summoned before beginning the mission, and been launched from the pads near by. He slightly glared at the launching pads he was surprised when he was launched along with the speedster, luckily he reacted quickly to come up with a landing strategy. Flash unfortunately wasn't enough to reach and felt head first in a nearby lake he was truly lucky that he didn't got hurt or worst. The scarlet speedster was already present along with the headmaster and the blond huntress Goodwitch, Ozpin looked pleased unlike the blond. Flash was giving his usual cocky grin and the Arrow knew he was going to make one of his smart ass remarks.
"Took you long enough, I was already done a while ago."
"Flash don't rub it in, you know I don't like it."
"Welcome back you two. You have done a great job reducing the number of Grimm. In doing so, the Emerald forest will be ready when the new students arrive next week."
"That's one thing out of the way. So are we done for the day?"
"You shouldn't have said that" the archer gave a sigh knowing it wasn't going to be good.
Ozpin in return gave a small smirk" now that you have mention it Mr. Allen I received a text message from Professor Port and Professor Oobleck. They want both of you to report to their classrooms, they seem to have work for you two."
"You see" Oliver wasn't happy going back to Port because he was annoyed with his stories.
"I hope it's not another test. I almost burn my brain with the last one" Barry gave a sigh Oobleck didn't show anhy mercy when it comes to his tests.
"It is important that the two of you have the necessary knowledge in order to fill the position of teacher assistant. I don't need to remind you again" replied the headmaster.
"We know Professor Ozpin we'll be heading back to Beacon" replied the archer.
"One more thing" Goodwtich spoke giving the Flash one of her serious gazes" Mr. Allen I would appreciate if you arrive to Professor's Oobleck classroom on time, for someone who is considered the fastest you really have the record for tardiness."
"Sorry I won't do it again Professor Goodwitch" the speedster noticed the Arrow was smiling behind his hood" I can see you're enjoying this."
"It's pretty much true Barry."
"Well let's head back to the academy" said Ozpin.
(Time skip)
(Location: The Klub)
Oliver felt the nostalgia when he entered the night club. It's been a while since he has come here and he has actually missed the place. Since he chose to work for Ozpin he has been getting more missions than usual so he didn't had the time to come to work at the night club. He already knew Junior was probably pissed at him for been absent for so long. The vigilante smiled seeing the DJ dressed in his usual teddy bear costume playing the fast techno music. His eyes fell on the bar spotting his boss Junior he was doing his regular job serving drinks. He didn't bother checking if the Malachite twins were around but he had a feeling they were present.
"Working hard?" he smiled at the bartender.
"What the-" Junior gasped before glaring at the teen" the hell?! Where the heck have you been?!"
"I'm sorry Junior I know you're angry with me for been absent to work, but I've been very busy."
"For five moths?" the bartender sweat dropped.
"Right I'm very sorry but I did send you messages that I couldn't come to work..."
"Not enough to convince me though, if you weren't my favorite employee I would have fire your butt a while back. So what's your excuse to ditch my club?"
"I've been busy at Beacon."
"Beacon?" Junior raised an eyebrow.
"I have apply for the position of teacher assistant I hope you can understand my absence for so long."
"Seriously? You're a teacher assistant? Get out" he laughed.
"I'm serious Junior it's the reason why I've been busy."
"No way you don't seen the type to be helping teachers. Who would have thought first a bouncer and now a teacher's pet."
"I wouldn't call it that" he gave a sigh.
"And now you can't work here right?"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to. The work in Beacon is taking too much of my time I'm sorry Junior."
"It's okay Oliver I understand to be honest I had a feeling you weren't going to last here. You're exceptional I guess, it was good while it lasted. Just so you know I won't be the only one who's going to miss you."
"I pretty much think so too."
"Oliver!"
Just like that the archer was caught off guard as he was engulfed in a tight hug by none other than Miltia Malachite. It surprised him a lot that the shy teen has taken the guts to actually hug him. He smiled seeing Melanie not too far and he took noticed that she was glaring at him, looks like not everyone was happy to see him back.
"Oliver I can't believe you're back, we missed you so much" the girl in red dried her tears.
"I'm sorry for worrying you Miltia, both of you" he gazed at Melanie but she was still glaring at him.
"Where were you? Me and Melanie were always calling you but you never answer our calls, we even text you..."
"Yet you reply to us saying you were too busy to come to the club" Melanie kept her glare at the teen.
"I'm sorry I was really busy."
"He's right you two you won't believe this but he's now working in Beacon as a teacher's pet" replied Junior.
"It's teacher's assistant" corrected the archer.
"Teacher assistant?" Miltia couldn't believe it while her sister didn't look convince in the slightest.
"I can tell you all about it. It's the reason why I'm here."
They got seated while Junior fixed some drinks for the three. Oliver told them about applying in Beacon and how much he needed to study in order to qualify for the position so he sounded very convincing along with telling them that the pay was good. Junior and Miltia were convinced but Melanie wasn't, she continued to glare at him and the vigilante was starting to become nervous. Maybe his absence in the night club has really affected her in a negative way unlike Miltia who seemed fine. He took a sip from his drink while Melanie got up and left the bar, Oliver didn't wasted time going after the girl in white. Miltia was about to interfere but she was stopped by the bartender.
"Best not to get in their way Miltia. I think Oliver is the only one who can help Melanie."
"I guess, she may looked like she's angry with him. But the truth is she was really worried about him, she was so frantic the first time Oliver didn't show up at the club. She misses him a lot."
"Yep I know, that's why its for the best to let those two talk it out alone."
(Scene change)
"Melanie!"
Oliver has followed the girl in white to the back alley of the club. He really thought talking to her will ease her mind and maybe lift some of that anger. Was she really glad to see him again or just too upset to think so, it was really confusing. But he knew he needed to visit the club because this might be the last time he will be here. In addition that he has kept his eyes on Junior and so far the bartender hasn't gotten involve with Torchwick, meaning he has learn his lesson and maybe turn a new leaf. That was one problem out of the way and he was glad the club owner has become a new man. Now all he needed to do is try to calm down Melanie she was always the one with the temper and the stubbornness unlike her sister in red.
"Melanie would you please wait!"
That has made the teen girl stopped her tracks without gazing at the former bouncer.
"I know you're angry at me for been absent for so long I understand. But I have explain clearly why I was absent-"
The archer gasped dodging an incoming kick from Melanie before he knew it, he was dodging a barrage of kicks from the enforcer girl. He knew what was going on because she was so angry at him she was attacking as a way to relief her anger on him. This made Oliver reflect Miltia was worried and she has missed him but she didn't let anger cloud her judgement. Her sister on the other hand was the opposite she was worried sick but eventually her concern turn into anger. It wasn't a good sign she might reach a point when she will break and let all of her emotions out, but at this rate she wasn't going to get there. If this will be the last time he'll be here he was going to help the teen in white with her problem.
"Melanie that's enough!"
"You..." she gritted her teeth unleashing another kick.
Oliver managed to grabbed the kick and threw her in the ground in a full reversal. The girl stood there glaring at him staring at his blue eyes now her heart was beating fast. Why was she feeling this way she should be angry with him after been gone for months, now she was weak on the knees. The truth was revealed she couldn't stay mad at him for too long, how could she? This was the person she has developed feelings for a while. This person before her has become someone close and precious and the only thing coming to her mind as she stared at his handsome face was embrace him and stay in his arms forever. Then she will break it with a passionate kiss, thinking about has made her cheeks crimson growling mentally. Now she felt bad for acting like a temperamental fool.
"Melanie...?" Oliver got worried she was still quiet on the ground.
"..." she got up not looking him in the eyes.
The vigilante grabbed her hand helping the girl in white back to her feet" you all right?"
She could only give a weak nod.
"I'm sorry for been gone too long. You have every right to be angry at me but I made the choice to go work at Beacon. Not that I don't like working at the Klub but I feel like I'm more needed at the academy than here. Junior and Miltia seems to understand that...what about you?"
"That's not true" she mumble.
"What...?"
"I need you more" her green eyes were on him.
"I can't hear you Melanie speak up."
"I said don't go. Maybe Miltia and Junior will be fine with you leaving but not me I won't be able to go on if you go for good. I need you more than you know I lo-"
"Melanie" he closed her lips not wanting to finish her words" how about if I call you on a daily basis, if I can't call you I will text you. Maybe drop for a visit every once in a while. Just because I'll be working on Beacon it doesn't mean I won't come to the Klub anymore" he wanted to kick himself for saying that because he was planning of not coming back.
"That's okay I'm sure Miltia will be happy to hear that. But that's not enough for me."
"What else could you possibly want?" he wanted to rub his forehead it was impossible to please this girl.
"I want you to be honest with me Oliver."
"About what?" he had a bad feeling about this of course he knew what she was going to talk about.
"How do you feel about me?" she tightened her hold on his hand.
"How I feel...?" he gulped he knew this was going to happen.
"Do you like me? Don't keep me waiting spit it out" he swore he saw her green eyes flashing.
"Well I care for you Melanie..."
"Don't say but" she tightened her hold on him.
"But that's all there is. You and Miltia are both attractive girls I'm sure you can find a nice boy that will accept you for who you are" he really wanted to escape from this situation, he would rather shot himself with an arrow than this.
"Not a good enough answer" she frowned before letting him go" can you at least tell me there's someone else?"
"There isn't someone else" yet why did he felt like he was lying to himself.
"I guess that will be enough" she felt satisfied with his answer at least he was available, maybe she might have a chance after all.
The archer wanted to give a sigh of relief but he thought he wasn't out of danger yet, as the girl in white passed him before making a quick stop.
"You better keep your promise and call me or text me but I prefer that you call me. And don't forget to come and visit us."
She launched a kick but he remained still as the bladed heel was inches away from his face.
"Or else" she lift down the deadly kick before leaving.
Now Oliver was relief that he was safe and also he wasn't going to say a word to Melanie that she has flashed him her underwear with that last kick. Now he could leave and return to Beacon without any regrets but he never noticed the girl in white walking back towards him. His eyes widened when he felt his collar been grabbed and before he knew what was going on Melanie has pulled him to a kiss that shocked him beyond words. It was mouth heated and passionate and also that the teen girl has used some tongue. Now the vigilante has kissed many times before but this one was quite unexpected not to mention it was no amateur kiss. It made him wonder if Melanie was practicing kissing in secrecy.
The enforcer in white let him go and a smile was on her lips. Without saying a word she left and took one last glance at him.
"I'm not giving up on you Oliver Queen" she finally went back to the club.
"..." the archer stood in his place not believing he has lowered his guard to be caught in the kiss.
"The story of my life..."
(Scene change)
(Location: From Dust Till Dawn)
Barry was helping Seymour with cleaning the shop thought it was late in the evening. He didn't mind since he volunteered to take the late night shift he was happy the elder man wasn't upset with his frequent absence to work. Because working for Ozpin and studying for been a teacher assistant has taken so much of his time. He felt bad once the new semester begins he won't be able to work here so he decided to take this day to talk to the elderly owner. But it was hard to bring it up since he didn't know how he was going to take it, after all the dust shop has become a second home to the speedster. Telling Seymour he won't be able to work her was harder for him than he could imagine.
Gazing at the corner he smiled noticing that Ruby was in the magazine section of the shop. The reason she was present at such a late hour is because he gave her a call telling the rose petite that the latest issue of her favorite weapon magazine has arrive. At the revelation the young rose couldn't contain herself and has left her home to come here and read it too excited to wait until tomorrow. The scythe wielder was currently using the music sample section too, having the headphones listening to her favorite artist which is Cassie Williams and Jeff Lee Williams. No matter what Ruby does she will always put a smile on the speedster's face, then it faded away remembering what he needed to talk with his boss.
"Seymour sir..."
"What is it lad?"
"I...there's something I have to tell you."
"Your tone says it's not good news."
"I wish there were but..."
"Does this has to do with your job at Beacon? You did told me you're studying to be a teacher assistant."
"Yeah you see I..." he tried to remain calm but it wasn't working.
"You'll be too busy to come work here right?"
"Yeah I'm sorry I know it looks sudden and I will be forever grateful for letting me work at your shop I-"
"It's okay lad I'm not upset. I figured you won't be able to work here the moment you told me you were going to Beacon. So I'm guessing this will be your last day."
"Yeah it is..."
"Well since its your last day I will double your pay."
"Really? Y-you don't have to do that I mean I will be happy with the usual pay."
"I insist I think you have earned it, you're a great employer."
"O-okay I guess I can't turn down double pay."
The speedster was feeling so happy now. Knowing that Seymour wasn't upset that he won't be working in his shop. Now he will be able to work his last day with no regrets, though he was going to miss working on the dust shop. His happiness was taken away when someone entered the shop and that made Barry glared hoping he was dreaming. The person was definitely no customer who would have thought that the one and only Roman Torchwick will come to a simple dust shop. He was also accompanied by members of the White Fang. He already knew that he was planning to steal every bit of dust and crystal, he needed to do something but he couldn't risk his identity to Seymour next to him. He took his scroll and send a message to Oliver he knew the archer vigilante will be here shortly.
Torchwick removed his cigar getting into the counter near the cash register where Seymour was ready to attend him, but the elderly man was already nervous he knew who was this man.
"Do you have any idea how hard it is to keep a dust shop open at this hour?"
The White Fang members pointed their rifles as the old man raised his hands while Barry remained calm.
"Please just take my lien and go."
"Shh it's all right were not here for your money" the orange haired man turned to the faunus" grab the dust."
The old man started grabbing the dust crystals handing them to him.
"Clean and uncut."
The white Fang members started grabbing the dust store in the pipe containers. So far Seymour hasn't been harm but then his eyes widened. Because he realized they weren't the only ones in the store.
"Oh no Ruby."
True to the speedster's thoughts Ruby was still reading the weapon magazine and she still had the headphones. One of the faunus members was calling to her but obviously she couldn't listen to his demands. That wasn't good the worst case scenario he will have to use his speed to save her just when Seymour was present. Finally the faunus lost his patience and removed the headphones making the rose petite to looked at him. Barry was still arguing with himself if he should intervene or wait and see what happens. Of course knew the young rose can take care of herself but since he has gotten fond of the petite he couldn't help but get worried for her.
"Are you robbing me?" Ruby didn't sounded scared or worried.
"Yes!" replied the angry White Fang member.
"Oh" a playful smile was on her face.
"It was nice knowing you" Barry knew that faunus made a mistake.
The faunus was sent flying as Ruby crashed the window outside of the store. Torchwick and the rest had their attention seeing the girl has taken her weapon. The scythe looked deadly and it was even bigger than her.
"Ookay...get her."
While Ruby was fighting the faunus members Barry went to Seymour.
"Go hide now!"
"What about you lad?"
"I'll be fine just get to safety."
The old man gave a nod entering the back of the shop and the teen took the chance to leave the store using his speed.
Torchwick was impressed that a little girl was able to take down members of the White Fang organization, and they were supposed to be the cream of the crop. The thought made him laugh to him these faunus were nothing but sloppy amateurs he was still wondering why Cinder was bothering with them. With the right amount of lien he could buy some real goons that will make the White Fang look like a bunch of wimps. He would love to entertain himself fighting the small girl but he didn't had time, his boss was about to pick him up any minute now. The orange haired man gave a salute to the girl with his smug grin.
"Well red it's been great and all but I have a busy schedule" he pointed his cane as tip open a lid which looked like a scope ready to fire at the scythe wielder.
An arrow hit his cane been thrown off far away, Torchwick glared at the green colored arrow on the ground. He gritted his teeth he was here and before he could do something a red blur passed him and gasped realizing he was wearing a pair of handcuffs.
"What the-" he was punched by the red blur sending him to the ground.
"It's Flash!" Ruby squealed.
When Torchwick lifted his head the first thing he saw was the green hooded archer glaring at him, yep he knew he was in deep trouble.
"Roman Torchwick...you have failed this city" he punched him knocking the criminal unconscious.
"The mission is a done success" Goodwitch arrived she has watched their progress since they got her and also she was instructed by Ozpin to retrieve the young Rose.
"Are you a huntress?" Ruby smiled seeing the blond woman.
"..."
"Can I have your autograph? I already have Flash's and I will eventually get the Arrow's" she kept smiling giving the hooded archer a quick glance.
(Time skip)
(Location: outside of Vale Police Department station)
Ruby couldn't believe what just happened. First she saw the Flash again, then she witnessed the most wanted criminal in the four kingdom been captured by the two vigilantes, then she met an actual huntress whom the blond woman was very scary, then she met the headmaster of Beacon and now the same man has offered her a chance to attempt his school even when she needed two years to graduate from Signal. She was overjoyed never she will ever believe to have been given such a once in a life time opportunity. Her life long dream was about to come true she will go to Beacon with her sister and become a huntress. Things couldn't get any better as she saw the Flash like he was waiting for her.
"I heard congrats" the speedster spoke in his usual echo voice.
"I really can't believe I'm going to Beacon."
"I'm happy for you Ruby."
The rosette has lowered her head feeling her cheeks turned red" you know it's because of you. When I was younger Yang used to read me stories of heroes fighting evil monster and saving the innocent I always wanted to become like those heroes. But ever since I met you I feel like I can do anything it's because of you Flash that I want to become a huntress, you inspired me to give it my all. I...I wanted for you to know that..."
Behind his mask Barry felt his cheeks reddened. Finding out he was the source of her inspiration has really touched him and it was a good thing. Inspiring someone to do her best and become a hero or heroine. These were the times he was glad to have the responsibility of been a vigilante inspiring others to become better people. And he already knew Ruby was going to become one heck of a huntress that was something to be proud of.
"I'm flattered..."
"You're embarrassed" the rosette was giggling.
"Don't make fun of your inspiration" he couldn't help but laughed.
Ruby eventually laughed gazing at the scarlet speedster" thanks a lot Flash."
"Well I gotta go."
"I will see you again, right?"
"I have a feeling we will" he smiled of course they will see each other again at Beacon.
"Cool" she smiled watching the vigilante leave in a red blur.
(Time skip: one week later)
(Location: Beacon Academy)
Oliver and Barry were called to Ozpin's office by Goodwitch telling them it was an important matter. Both vigilantes were beyond relief because they just had one tough test from Port and Oobleck. Both eventually believe it was about the new students that will be arriving to the academy soon. Barry was trying hard to hide his joy since he knew Ruby will be coming here while Oliver remained quiet also knowing why the speedster was pretending like he wasn't happy. Entering the office they saw the headmaster with his usual coffee mug in hand and on the other hand was holding a newspaper with the front page saying" Torchwick arrested".
"Morning" Ozpin greeted the vigilantes.
"You're in a good mood Professor" smiled Barry.
"I have plenty of reasons to be in a good mood. First because I can't stop reading this news article. Both of you have done a great job capturing the criminal Roman Torchwick. With this our city will be a lot safer."
"Professor Ozpin we already know that you didn't call us just to remind us of Torchwick's capture" said Oliver.
"Indeed, as you both know in just a few hours the bullhead ship carrying the new students will be arriving at academy grounds. I hope you give them a warm welcome, hopefully we'll be with them for the next four years."
"That is if they pass the initiation" followed Barry.
"That is correct. Now I suggest while we wait for the students you two should return to your rightful teachers."
"Before we do Professor Ozpin there's something I would like to discuss with you, it's about Torchwick" said the archer vigilante.
"Very well I'm listening."
"Torchwick's capture was too easy. He suddenly went into the streets knowing well he's a wanted criminal and decides to rob a regular dust shop, when he and the White Fang has been robbing bigger dust cargos, something is really wrong here."
"Are you insinuating that he wanted to get arrested Mr. Queen?" Ozpin raised and eyebrow while Barry looked confused.
"Not at all. The first time we went after him he laid low while the White Fang had their own ambush on us. Torchwick stood hidden and probably expected we were looking for him, as if someone has warned him. Someone who is clever and knows perfectly what is doing."
"There's someone else helping Torchwick?" the speedster sounded surprised.
"Hmm...interesting" Ozpin was interested to where the archer was going.
"That's what I believe, I think Torchwick is nothing but a goon who is only good taking orders from someone. He and the White Fang are the puppets, the real threat is the one pulling the strings. Whoever is this person I think it won't make a difference to the safety of the city with only one puppet locked up" Oliver gazed at the headmaster.
"But you already know that, don't you headmaster?"
Barry turned to Ozpin while Goodwitch gave him another glance. The headmaster has given a smile before taking a sip from his coffee.
"I'll be happy to tell you all about it Mr. Queen. But that will be another time, for now I must make preparations for the opening ceremony."
"We'll be heading back then" Oliver turned to the speedster as they were ready to go.
"One more thing Mr. Allen, Mr. Queen. Do not forget you are to join the students at the ballroom tonight. I think you two should start bonding with the first year's."
"We understand" Barry replied as they finally left the office.
"Looks like you were right about him Ozpin. He figured out the existence of the third party aiding Torchwick and the White Fang a lot sooner than you expected" said Goodwitch.
"Proving of Mr. Queen's high intellect. It would seem I will have to rely him with all the information I know."
"Is that wise?"
"I believe so. I have given my faith on this city's vigilantes. However I will have to discuss this matter with Qrow."
(Time skip)
It was finally time as the bullhead ship arrived on time bringing the new students that will start the semester in the academy. Barry stood on the entrance eagerly awaiting the students, or more precise waiting for a certain silver eyed girl. He saw the bull head arriving early and in the distance he saw the students leaving the ship. There was quite the number of students looks like it was going to be a busy semester, still he hasn't seen the scythe wielder. After most of the students entered the academy his eyes were on a certain black haired red highlighted girl. The speedster smiled staring at Ruby who looked like she was going crazy with some of the weapons the new students had. Next to the silver eyed girl was Yang who was trying to control her sister from losing it, he knew she loves weapons.
Then he was caught off guard as Yang has took off with a group of students leaving her younger sister behind. He didn't like that but maybe the blond brawler did it on purpose so she can start making friends on her own. As things couldn't get worse for Ruby she was dizzy after her sister took off at such a fast pace that she ended up hitting a pair of luggage. If got even worst when the owner of the luggage was a white haired girl with aqua eyes wearing a light blue dress with a bolero jacket, and she didn't look happy in the slightest. Barry felt sorry for the petite she just arrived to Beacon and she already started a bad first impression. He thought of jumping in and help her before he saw the young rose sneezing from the dust jar the white haired girl was holding ending in a small explosion.
Now the speedster thought she needed a break it wasn't her fault she sneezed. The result of the explosion made the white haired girl madder. Then he saw Blake approaching the two girls holding another canister of dust. Whatever she said made the white haired girl mad as she rudely took the dust from the faunus and left without giving a second glance. Now Barry thought Blake will become friends with Ruby but instead she left her without saying a word leaving the petite on her own. She threw herself on the ground and that was all he could take he was going to go to her before he saw a blond haired boy with blue eyes wearing an orange hoody and some kind of armor helping her.
Now he didn't know why he was feeling uncomfortable looking at the boy that has helped Ruby. The way he touched her hand and the way the rose petite has smiled at him, he felt upset. He had no idea the blond boy seems to be a good person with helping her up and deciding to talk to her after everything she's been through getting here. The speedster has felt the same pain whenever Iris was with Eddie all those times they were together that same pain in his heart will hurt him little by little. A pain he has gotten used to for so long, but this couldn't be happening. Ruby was a good friend nothing more, Oliver has been wrong about him liking her more than just a friend.
"Excuse me?"
"Yeah?" he turned to see a red headed girl with green eyes wearing what he recognizes to be a Spartan warrior armor.
"I"m sorry to disturb you, but I'm a little lost this academy is sure big. Can you tell me where is the auditorium?"
"Sure I" Barry's eyes widened recognizing the girl" oh my it's you...you're Phyrra Nikos!"
"Hello" the red head happily waved.
"I remember you from Pumpkin Pete's marshmallow flakes, it's my favorite cereal."
"That's great I hope you're not eating it too frequently, it's not good for your health."
"You kidding? I always eat it every morning, I'm Barry Allen."
"It's nice to meet you Barry you already know who I am" she kept her smile.
"I can't believe you're actually here in Beacon, it's totally cool."
"I've been wanting to enroll to Beacon for a while. It wasn't that hard to be accepted to the most prestigious academy in Vale."
"Well I'm glad you're here maybe we can be friends I won't mind."
"I sure hope so too."
"Now you asked me where's the auditorium, I'll take you there since that's where I'm heading" the speedster took a glance outside of the academy but there was no sign of Ruby or the blond boy.
(Scene change)
Oliver was already at the auditorium watching as the place was been filled by the new students. This is where everyone will gather and the opening ceremony will begin, Ozpin will give the first year's a speech before settling for the night. Been a teacher assistant had some privileges the headmaster has already told them about the initiation test and what the students needed to do in order to pass. From the looks of things not that many students weren't going to be so lucky. He felt someone bumping into him he turned to see a girl with short orange hair, turquoise eyes wearing a pink skirt with a vest with colors of black and white with pink fingerless gloves. Next to her was a boy with long black hair tied on a pony tail that ends midway on his back, magenta eyes wearing a dark green long sleeve coat similar to what a Chinese martial artist would wear.
"I'm sorry she didn't meant to bump into you" replied the boy.
"It's all right it is getting a little crowded."
"Hi! I'm Nora and this is Ren" the orange haired girl said sounding very excited.
"Oliver Queen."
"Queen?! Are you from royalty?! Are you really the son of a real queen?! Do you live in a castle?! Do they serve you pancakes everyday?! Do you know how a sloth sounds like?! Is your bathroom made of gold?! Does the water from your toilet runs the other way?!"
"..."
"Nora don't ask too many questions."
Oliver stood in his place watching the cheery girl jumping up and down and singing to herself, he cleared his throat getting closer to Ren" is she...mentally ill?"
"Nora's always like that. You get used to her."
"I highly doubt it."
"So let me get this straight" Nora got closer to the archer with her eyes lit up" your dad is a king and your mom's a queen right?"
"No, Queen is my last name but I'm not from royalty" though she was a bit right since he was the son of a wealthy family.
"Okay!"
"We better get going, come along Nora."
The orange haired girl got closer to the vigilante slightly poking his forehead" boop."
"It was nice meeting you Oliver" said Ren leaving with the hyperactive girl.
"What is wrong with that girl?"
"Oliver...?"
The archer turned to a familiar face" Blake..."
"Why are you here?" her amber eyes were on him she was really surprised to see him in the academy.
"I'm a teacher assistant" he knew telling her the truth was the right thing to do because if he lies to her she will get more suspicious of him.
"Teacher assistant? How did you apply for such a position?"
"I have the education and I apply for it online."
"You worked with Tukson and that night club. I don't think you will have the time to be studying in college and also I think it will take you more than five months to finish."
"Look at the time I better go, I have a busy day. I will see you later Blake" he quickly left cursing mentally why does she has to be so clever.
The cat faunus kept her eyes on the retreating teen before taking her scroll. She quickly went online checking the official site of Beacon academy. Her amber eyes narrowed there was no apply option as she resume searching through the site, now she was certain something was up. The faunus closed her scroll deciding to end her search because the opening was about to begin.
Barry arrived at the auditorium with Phyrra he felt so honored to be the one to escort the one and only five times Sanctum champion. It wasn't every day you get such a chance so he didn't hesitated escorting her. Looks like they were just in time as the place was filled by the many new students. It really surprised the speedster at the amount who would think that there will be so many people wanting to become huntsman and huntresses. The thought made him happy that they wanted to protect their city from the Grimm, for him they were all heroes.
"Thank you Barry for bringing me here. I swear without you I would have probably gotten lost" smiled the red head champion.
"It's okay you'll eventually know your way around the academy you are going to be here for the next four years."
"Of course I am planning of becoming a huntress."
"You'll do just fine with your skills."
"Thanks for the confidence, I guess I will see you around" Phyrra waved at him before leaving.
"I've done my first good deed of the day."
"What are you doing here?"
The speedster turned to the familiar voice and face of Yang" hey, how you doing?"
"Don't give me that Barry, why are you in Beacon? You're a nerd not a fighter."
"For your information I was accepted by the headmaster for the position of teacher assistant."
"A teacher's pet" the blond brawler gave a laugh.
"No, teacher assistant" the speedster has sweat dropped.
"Well whatever, at least Ruby will be happy when she finds out you'll be here."
"I just hope you don't ditched her again" he grinned.
"Oh you saw that? Heh I was just trying to give her a small push so she can start making friends on her own. You know how Ruby is when it comes to socializing."
"Just because she's not good at making friends it doesn't make her a bad person."
"Damn right because she's starting at Beacon I don't want her to be socially awkward, I will hate if it becomes like Signal all over again."
"I have a feeling she'll do fine in Beacon" Barry saw the rose petite arriving at the auditorium with the same blond boy who helped her, and again that bad feeling was rising in him.
"Hm..." Yang saw her sister but she took noticed at the way he was looking at her, namely with the boy she was hanging with.
"Oh Barry you're so predictable it's not even funny" the blond brawler was grinning.
"Ruby over here! I saved you a spot!"
The scythe wielder said farewell to the blond boy running towards her sister. She smiled widely seeing the teen next to the blond brawler.
"Barry! Why are you here?!"
"He's a teacher's pet" grinned Yang.
"What?" blinked the petite.
"Don't listen to her, I was accepted to become a teacher assistant here."
"Really? That means...you'll be staying in Beacon how cool!" Ruby couldn't contain her joy.
"So Ruby who was the guy with you just now?" Barry tried to sound casual instead of how he was feeling because of that bad feeling.
"That was Jaune, he's cool I guess."
"I'm happy you made a friend on your first day in Beacon" the speedster has given a smile but Yang was able to tell that smile was fake.
"That blond boy is the same one who threw up on the ship" said the blond brawler.
"Yeah he gets air sick" Ruby gave a playful smile.
"Seriously he threw up on the ship" Barry was shocked.
"Good thing you weren't there my favorite boots were drenched thanks to vomit boy" Yang gave a sigh remembering she was cleaning them just when they arrived.
"I think it was funny" Ruby smiled making the speedster chuckled.
"Yeah yeah so where you've been sis?"
"You mean after you ditched me?" a frown was placed on the rosette's lips.
"Hey! I didn't ditch you."
"Yes you did you left me all alone and because of that I was yelled at."
"Someone yelled at you" the blond cracked her knuckles as her eyes briefly turned red.
"Uh huh! This crabby girl, who said I got in her way and got all angry at me, I don't even know why I just wanted her to stop yelling at me!"
"Um, Ruby..." Barry saw said crabby girl behind her.
"Why does she has to yell at me so much she even made me sneeze all that dust, I'm telling you I'm innocent."
"Ruby" the speedster was pointing behind her.
"You!"
"It's happening again!" Ruby jumped on her sister's arms in a comical way.
Why are you over here?" Weiss glared at the rosette.
"Hi I'm Barry!" he happily smiled.
"Did I asked for your name?"
"Um...no."
"Then be quiet I'm not talking to you."
"Okay she has some serious issues."
"Hey don't be mean to Barry he was just trying to be nice" Ruby was facing the white haired girl her silver eyes narrowing.
"I'm not been mean!"
"You kinda are" mumble the vigilante causing Weiss to glared at him and he ignored her.
"Just so you know princess me and my sister are students, Barry on the other hand is a teacher's pet" said Yang.
"It's teacher assistant" the speedster sweat dropped.
"Sounds the same to me" the blond grinned before turning to the crabby girl" so who is she anyway?"
"Her name is Weiss" replied Ruby.
"Wait...she's Weiss Schnee. Looks like Oliver was right about her attitude" Barry had to chuckle mentally.
"Look, I'm sure you two just got off on the wrong foot. Why not try to be friends?" said Yang.
"Great idea sis! Ahem...hello Weiss my name is Ruby! Want to hang out? Go shopping for school supplies?"
"Oh that's a great idea! We could be best friends! Go clothes shopping, paint our nails and talk about cute boys like tall, dark and nerdy over here" Weiss pointed to Barry.
"At least she can be sarcastic" thought the speedster.
"Really?" Ruby smiled.
"No" the Schnee heiress replied flatly.
"Okay Weiss we get it you don't like her. Ruby if she doesn't want to be your friend then it's her lost, I would never turn down a great friend like you."
Barry's comment made the rosette smiled while feeling embarrassed, Yang just and grinned and the Schnee heiress just huff like she could care less.
They turned their attention to the front where Ozpin has arrived next to him was Goodwitch. The headmaster has stepped forward getting closer to the microphone he was ready to say the speech part of the opening ceremony.
"I'll keep this brief" he adjusted his glasses" you have traveled here today in search of knowledge, to hone your craft and acquire new skills. And when you finish, you are going to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But when I look among you, I just see wasted energy. A need for purpose...for direction. You assumed that knowledge will free you of this. But your time at this school, will show you that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step."
With that said Ozpin walked away leaving quite the reactions from the students present. Ruby and Yang were confused it was truly a weird entrance speech, while Weiss looked annoyed not understanding the meaning behind the speech. Barry only gazed at Oliver who was in the corner and they were both giving the same expression. Both vigilantes knew the headmaster wanted to test their resolves before starting the semester. Looks like everything will be decided at the initiation test. Maybe there were students who still haven't decided if they truly wanted to become huntsman, or they were just seeking fame and glory instead of accepting the responsibility of saving people's lives.
Goowitch has taken the microphone" you will gather in the ballroom tonight. Tomorrow, your initiation begins, be ready."
(Time skip)
Night has fallen at Beacon academy. Everyone has gathered in the ball room as instructed by Goodwitch and as expected the new students were prepared to spend the night. They have taken their sleeping bags and changed into their night wear or pajamas. Many of the male were wearing muscle shirts or t-shirts along with shorts or long baggy pants, much to say there some kind for the ladies and vice versa. Among those teens stood Oliver who the vigilante wasn't sleepy in the slightest because it was still early in the evening. He has decided this time to read a book he bought at Tukson's shop before telling the owner he couldn't work for him anymore due to his new position in the academy. He was glad the book store owner understood and was happy with his new job.
The archer vigilante was currently wearing a white t-shirt with dark green sweat pants he was satisfy with his choice of sleeping clothes. Not that he cares if he was getting attention from the opposite sex, however there was one girl who was making him nervous. She stood from a far corner of the ball room wearing a black yukata, with gray and white as a secondary color set up. Like him she was also reading a book and using a candle to give her the proper light she needed to read. Leave it to Blake to read before going to bed and he could swear she was stealing glances at him. If she wasn't so good at hiding her emotions it was frustrating he couldn't read her. Finally he decided to pay attention to the book he was reading.
"Hey still awake?" Barry raised an eyebrow.
"You're reading...?"
"Yes Barry I'm reading, why do you sound surprise?" the archer turned to the speedster who was wearing a light red muscle shirt with black shorts.
"Nothing, I never saw you as the reading type."
"I'm feeling like reading now."
"So you think Ozpin told us to spend the night here on purpose?"
"I wouldn't be surprise if he did" the archer had a feeling Barry was right.
"I don't get any complaints though, I mean look at this place. There are so many girls they're all pretty and...I guess hot" he blushed.
"Barry try to control your hormones and try to remain calm when you see Ruby."
It was too late to take the warning as the speedster saw the rose petite not too far from where they stood. Ruby was wearing a black tank top with a heart shape beowolf design on the chest and white long pants with pink roses as decorations. He thought it was cute and it suited her well, next to the young rose was Yang. The blond brawler was wearing the complete opposite of her sister. An orange tank top with her flame emblem on the front and black boy shorts. The sleeping wear was enough to show her curves he will be lying to himself if he said she wasn't attractive. Both sisters seems to be talking about something he noticed Ruby was writing a letter of the sorts, he felt like not interfering their family moment.
"I know she's staring..."
"Hm...what?" the speedster turned to Oliver trying to read his book.
"It's nothing..."
"You said someone's staring at you, who?"
The archer felt like telling him since he believe his secret identity could be in jeopardy" it's Blake..."
Barry was able to see the cat faunus not that far from where Ruby was, she was reading a book too" what about her?"
"For a while now she's been too clever and too observant about me and..."
A smile has been placed in the speedster's face" I guess she's pretty too right?"
"That too...no not that" the archer cursed dispelling the blush on his cheeks" I'm been serious Barry I think she might know my secret."
"You think she knows you're the Arrow" the speedster turned serious that he whispered the last part.
"More like she suspects but it's been like that for months. It's become hard to avoid her or hide things from her. I can tell she knows I'm hiding something."
"She's that good...?"
"I've never met anyone so observant" he stole a glance at the faunus and their eyes have met for a brief moment.
"Okay...if she suspects about your identity why don't you tell her? That way you can prove her suspicious were correct from the start."
"I'm not going to tell her my secret. We're supposed to keep our secrets no matter what. I'm not ready to tell her yet."
"Oliver you said it yourself she suspects who you are and who knows if she already knows. If its true she probably hasn't told no one about it, making her trustworthy."
"Trust is not the issue" the archer remembered when Blake told him about her past, how she lived a life full of discrimination because of her faunus heritage.
"Then what's the issue? If you trust her then what's stopping you from telling her?"
Barry has suddenly realized something before grinning" oh I see, it's all clear to me now."
"What is?"
"You really care for her...You like her?"
"I don't like her why do you always have to jump to conclusions?"
"I will let time decide for me, and if I'm right. I will gladly say" I told you so".
"You're deluding yourself" the vigilante went back to his reading.
Barry gazed back at Ruby and he was seeing Yang dragging her towards Blake. That was a real surprise to the speedster it's like they wanted to say hi to her or maybe trying to make conversation with the faunus. He smiled realizing that the blond wanted her sister to start making friends in Beacon, so she was obviously forcing the young rose to make a friend. He noticed that the raven haired girl had her attention to her book instead of gazing at the people talking to her, looks like it wasn't easy to make conversation with her. Suddenly someone has tripped near him he looked to see the same blond haired eyed boy that was with Ruby this morning. Only difference he was wearing a full-body pajama with blue bunny slippers, the speedster tried hard not to laugh while Oliver has taken his attention from his book to glance at the blond boy and he only shook his head in return.
"Hey you okay?" he helped the teen on his feet.
"Yeah I'm okay heh heh sorry about that. It's harder than it looks to run in my bunny slippers."
"They really look unique...I'm Barry Allen."
"Jaune Arc short, sweet, rolls of the tongue ladies love it."
"Really?"
"Well they will, I hope..." the blond smiled nervously.
"I can tell you two will get along just fine" Oliver commented not getting his eyes from his book.
"What?"
"Ignore him, he's Oliver Queen."
Jaune was in awe hearing his last name" are you related to royalty?"
"No I am not!" the archer got annoyed remembering the crazy girl Nora.
"It's just a last name it has nothing to do with royalty" Barry contributed.
"Oh, so sorry didn't mean to anger you."
"I'm not angry it's just...don't say it again" he shivered thinking about the weird hyperactive girl.
"Anyway I want to thank you for what you did for Ruby this morning" said the speedster.
"You know Ruby?"
"We're good friends I'm happy you went out of your trouble to help her."
"It was no trouble at all I'm just glad I was able to help. I felt sorry for her after she exploded with Weiss."
"Yeah but that wasn't her fault, you know she's not good with making friends."
"I know that feeling, she was the only person I was able to befriend with."
"You already made friends with me and Oliver...um maybe just me."
"Was that suppose to be a joke?" the archer kept on reading.
Jaune chuckle like was already liking Barry" looks like he was right, we're going to get along just fine."
"Always happy to meet another friend" the speedster smiled.
"By the way is it true that you throw up on the bullhead ship?"
"Yeah I did" the blond gave a sigh.
"It's okay to be air sick."
"You know what? Hearing that actually makes me feel better" the blond smiled.
They suddenly heard shouting not too far. They saw that Weiss was arguing with Ruby while Yang was trying to break them apart like a parent separating her children. Blake has actually taken her attention from her book and was actually talking to the sisters but they couldn't hear her. They were making quite the racket and by now some of the students have gotten to bed.
"Maybe we should do something" Barry turned to Jaune.
"No way I'm not going to get in their way" he quickly left.
"It was nice knowing you Jaune" the speedster vigilante sweat dropped.
"Best not to interfere Barry" replied Oliver as he saw Blake has blew her candle off ready to go to bed.
Weiss have left looking annoyed making the speedster sigh. This girl was definitely not good to get along with her attitude was truly bad. Anyone will get annoyed or upset just been near her, he didn't know if she should be considered another friend that Ruby has made. She was more like a rival or enemy he chuckled at the irony maybe the young rose wasn't good at making friends but she was good at making enemies. Then he noticed Ruby was trying to stop Yang from something, she awfully looked embarrassed about something.
"Hey Barry!" the blond brawler shouted getting his attention" Ruby's checking you out! She says you're hot!"
"What...?" the speedster felt embarrassed.
"That's not true! Don't listen to her Barry!" followed the rose petite.
"It's true she had her eyes glued to you! She was like" oh wow look at Barry's muscles and his rough shoulders!"
"Yang!" Ruby's face couldn't get any redder.
"Congratulations Barry, Ruby thinks you're hot. That will add some points when you tell her you like her" Oliver kept his attention on his book.
"W-wait, are you been sarcastic?"
"At least you know what sarcasm is" the archer has turned to him with a sly smile.
"That was so funny I forgot to laugh."
"This has been quite the evening, I think it's time to call it a night" Oliver closed his book ready to go to bed.
"Yeah it is getting late."
(Time skip)
It was late in the evening and Oliver was still wide awake. He couldn't get any sleep there was only thing he wanted to do right now. The archer took a glance at Barry who was sleeping soundly, he bet not even a loud scream or a noise will wake him up. The vigilante got up and left the ball room never realizing someone has woken up and saw him leaving. One of the things he has come to respect about Ozpin is he was always prepare for anything. The headmaster found out about his training and he has complied by giving the vigilante his own training room. A smile was formed in his lips having his own place to train is exactly what he needs.
The archer reached a long door at the end of the hallway, opening the door to reveal the training room. Leaving the door half open he removed his shirt as he started warming up before starting the session. He started with some push ups, followed by some sit ups once that was done he was ready to begin. Yet he never realized there was someone at the door watching carefully as he grabbed a bar above ground and started doing pull ups. He did about fifty his body was now sweating before he let go and went with the other part of his training regime. The person outside was still outside, and still looking at the teen in hard training.
Blake was about to blush when she saw his bare chest. But all of that turn into shock once she took a long look. Her amber eyes widened seeing that Oliver's chest was filled with scars and markings. The scars shocked her so much but the marking were a mystery to her. One of them on the right side of his chest looked like a pentagram with a circle inside with many small lines. The other one was on his lower left next to his rib cage, there were letters she didn't know what they meant but she figured out they belong to a language. As Oliver turned around the cat faunus saw there were more scars on his back along with some burn marks. But there was another tattoo on his upper left resembling a dragon. Another tattoo was in the exact middle of his back looking a triangle with strange letters she couldn't understand.
She thought she has seen enough and left before he realized someone was spying on him. As she walked back to the ball room she was in deep thought like she was analyzing what she just seen. Before going back to bed Blake was definitely curious to know what those markings and scars on him were all about. But there was one thing for sure, the faunus's suspicions on Oliver have increased after witnessing such. Now she was certain of the big secret the teen was hiding from her and the rest of the world.
That Oliver Queen is the Arrow.
To be continued
-As you can see I have made two changes within the cannon story.
a-I changed Junior's goons when Torchwick robbed from Dust till Dawn to White Fang members why? You will know in further chapters.
b-Torchwick's arrested but let's just say that he won't stay in jail for too long.
-It was important for Blake to see Oliver's scars and tattoos as part of character development and pairing development.
-It's fun to write about Nora and I laughed when she starts questioning Oliver.
-I want to answer some of the PM's I have gotten regarding the story. One of them regarding Oliver and Barry's semblance. I already know what will be Oliver's but I have no idea about Barry he already has many abilities thanks to his Flash powers (phasing among them). So I would appreciate if anyone sends me a PM suggesting a semblance for him.
-Another answer from a PM I will say that I have one villain from the DC universe appearing in the story along with two characters from the franchise. But I won't say who (there will be no spoilers so don't beg me to say). However you will all find out eventually.
-Also since I am sick with the yuri stories in RWBY I decided to make my own community "No yuri No yaoi". If you're sicked like me with the white rose, bumblebee then check out my community or PM if you want to be part of my staff don't forget to follow.
-Once more and I will continue to say it. Thank you very much for the favs, follows and reviews I always appreciate it.
Next time: The Emerald Forest
