Three Days Later Vale, 2:00pm
Six, Alice, and Ruby had found a nice apartment for a decent price, Six paid with the money he'd made over the years doing mercenary work.
It had two bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, and one bathroom.
Six was sitting with Ruby, teaching her more about weapons, Alice didn't approve, but she should learn how to take care of weapons, he'd wait a few more years to teach her how to fight though.
"Okay so this one fires nine millimeter rounds." He said showing her Maria. "They're weaker rounds but they get the job done."
Ruby just sat there looking curiously at him.
"Now this one's much stronger." He showed her A Light Shining In Darkness. "It fires 45. ACP rounds, much stronger, but slower and louder than a 9mm." He explained.
"She doesn't need to know this yet, she's six." Alice said.
"And she's extremely smart for her age, plus weapons are important." Six explained.
"You're a bad influence." Alice said.
"Probably." Six said. He got a call from Qrow, we walked outside and answered it.
"Hey man." Six said.
"Hey, listen I told Ruby's real dad you were in Vale." Qrow said.
"And?" Six asked.
"He wants to see her, he and Ruby's half sister live on an island called Patch, off the coast of Vale." Qrow said.
"You think he'll try to fight me?" Six asked.
"I told him to keep calm, and I'll be there too." Qrow replied.
"Good because if he tries to he'll regret it." Six said.
"Yeah I warned him how much of a bada*s you are don't worry." Qrow said.
"Listen, I don't think I can give her up after this long, and Alice would be heartbroken." Six said.
"I know, maybe we can work something out." Qrow said.
"Okay, I'll go." Six said.
"Alright, meet me at the docks." Qrow said.
"Got it, see you." Six said, then hung up.
Vale Docks, 30 Minutes Later
Six and the girls made it to the docks, he told Alice everything, but not Ruby.
Qrow was standing there. "You ready?" He asked.
"Ready as I'll ever be." Six replied.
They got on a boat to Patch.
45 Minutes Later
They landed in Patch and made it to the house.
Qrow knocked on the door, a blonde man answered it.
He looked at Ruby, and froze up for a minute. He regained his composure. "Come in." He said.
They all walked in, it was a nice house, Six noticed a little blonde girl with purple eyes.
"Yang honey this is Ruby, how about you too go play together, the grown-ups need to talk." The blonde guy said.
"I'll watch them." Alice said. "C'mon Ruby." She said as the three left the room.
"My name's Taiyang Xiao Long." He introduced himself.
"Six, just Six." Six said.
"So what happened, I heard the story from Qrow, but I want it from you." Tai said.
"I was walking through the forest and I found her and her mother, her mom told me her name was Ruby and told me to protect her, I met Alice, that woman, and she helped me take care of her, she honestly does most of it, I just keep them both safe." Six said.
"Qrow says you've done a good job, and he says you're a good guy, now I usually don't get along with him, but he loves these girls, so I trust him." Tai said.
"But I still don't like you raising her without her even knowing who I am."
"Well it isn't the same, but you can be an uncle, maybe she can come visit that little girl you have." Six said.
"Since she probably sees you two as parents that's probably the best I'm going to get, so alright." Tai said. They both shook hands.
They went and got the three girls.
"Ruby this is your uncle Tai." Six said.
"And Yang this is your uncle Six." Tai said.
"Your name is Six?" Yang asked.
"Yes, I know it's weird name, but it's mine." Six said.
"Cool." Yang said. "I like your coat."
"Thank you." Six said.
"So is she your wife?" Yang asked, pointing at Alice.
"Well we haven't really thought about that yet." Alice said, red-faced.
"I mean, I wouldn't mind it." Six said.
"I wouldn't either." Alice said.
Everyone started laughing at how awkward everything was.
