Dammit, who were those kids, how did they know that the Apathy was around. I want some answers I thought as I walked towards the Mayor's building. Entering the building and going straight for the Mayor's office. I barged in and looked at Ebony straight in the eyes with fury. "Ebony, why are people tracking down the Apathy!?"
"Emerald why are you here, aren't you supposed to be doing your job?" Ebony said confused why I came to her office. She didn't listen to what I had to say.
"I was until I heard of a group of kids going after our Apathy!" I said yelling at Ebony.
"I let them, They won't find the Apathy it already went down into it's Nest by now," Ebony said with confidence they won't be able to find the Grimm anytime soon.
"Then you miscalculated, they tracked it down all the way back to it's nest!" I say as Ebony's world shattered around her.
"How, why are we still here? We need to eliminate them!" Ebony said getting up and grabbing her dual purple and brown hatchets to go and kill these problems.
"Don't worry I collapsed the entrance trapping them in, they're going to die by the ancient Grimm inside, but what I'm wondering is why the Beacon students and some nobody went outside the walls when we told you to keep them inside the town?" I said with a voice of anger. Why had my subordinate not followed what I said to a tee?
"I didn't know they would be that much trouble if they went outside the walls," Ebony said, trying to give me an excuse.
"Well they were, my organization won't like what you did, now to more pressing matters: how much longer until the town dies?" I say with urgency in my voice.
"That will take at most two more weeks and at least three more days." She said confused why her boss asked this.
"I feel like those kids sent a distress signal, we need to initiate the plan now," I said assuming they sent a distress signal. If they didn't, who cares, the people are still going to die in a couple of days.
"Now, ok let me gather my things," Ebony said with nervousness in her voice as she runs to her cabinet and started putting in a combination to her safe.
"While you do that, I'll report in," I said as I walked away and grabbed my radio from my hip. Walking away from Ebony to radio in to Cinder.
"Emerald, what's the report?" Cinder said intrigued with Emerald reporting early.
"We need to start the plan early, some Beacon kids I suspect sent a distress signal and real Huntsmen will be coming soon," I said, giving her the small rundown.
"How did the children find out?" Cinder said with a hint of annoyance and anger mixed in her voice.
"Ebony let them and some nobody outside the wall and they followed our main Apathy," I said what Ebony did wrong. I'm not taking the blame for her.
"Ebony will face punishment for this mistake, I'll tell the queen to attack the town, when exactly?" Cinder said making plans for what she's going to do to Ebony when she gets here.
"Right now, Ebony and I are already packing up to leave in Calypso," I said wanting her to initiate the plan now.
"Mmmm… No, I need you and Ebony to stay until the town burns and everyone dead, leave no one left, that's an order." Cinder said in her demanding voice.
"But, the Hunts…" I say but was cut off.
"I said that's an order and besides no Huntsmen is near the town, it'll take them several hours to get to Silverkeep and by then it'll be destroyed." Cinder said making me stay here and at least the Huntsmen won't be a problem.
"Yes Cinder, what you command, I obey," I said hoping to impress her.
"Heh, you're learning good, goodbye, and don't mess this up more than you already have." Cinder says as she disconnects the call and leaving me angry.
Damn Ebony for making me look bad in front of Cinder and fuck those kids. Why did they have to follow the Apathy to the nest? That nobody was nice, but he's in the way so he needed to die.
Why did I say Clover as my name damn I need to get better at lying on the spot? Now time to take a vantage point on top of the building. Remembering to tell Ebony the new plan I walked over. "Hey Ebony, the new plan it came from the top, we're going to stay until the town burns down, throw your stuff in the Calypso and come back, we're going to destroy the defense from the inside and the Grimm will take care of the outside," I said give her the plan I just made up.
"Wait why do we have to stay?" Ebony said, hoping it's not to leave her dead here.
"They want us to verify if everyone is dead," Emerald says and Ebony physically flinches
"Curses, I really don't want to see my town burn." She said sadly with a face of pain.
"Are you second guessing our deal?" I say getting even angrier with her than before.
"No just I just feel bad they all trust me and now I'm going to backstab them," Ebony says not wanting to anger me, her superior more.
"Anybody would, but you need to forget these people. They'll be dead in a couple of hours anyway." I say callously to Ebony.
Back with Andres and Team CFVY
We kept going deeper into this wet dark cold cave illuminated by the flare in my hand because of Coco's orders. "Come on Andres stop being a bitch. The Apathy is the only one in here we haven't even seen any other Grimm." Coco said, getting annoyed with me.
"Keep your voice down, if you want to be careless that's you, but I won't let my guard down in here," I said really not wanting to talk anymore. I hate this feeling, the one where you want to yell at somebody, but you can't.
"What's going to jump out a Deathstalker? Remember we're one of the best teams in Beacon, almost nothing can beat us." She said with so much narcissism that I felt like knocking it out of her.
"I don't know what's gotten into your head, but you need to cut the arrogant bullshit, you're going to get your team and me killed because of it," I said getting angrier than before.
"Arrogant, that's what you think I am." She said looking insulted, I really hope she'll change her attitude now.
"Fuck yeah, you walked into this cave thinking that it'll be no problem without backup and without a plan," I said with my voice as calm as possible. I don't want to alert the Grimm, I know they are here.
"So we should've followed what you said, go back to the town and tell a bunch of low ranking Huntsmen that are probably our level to kill this Grimm, together we're better than those supposed Huntsmen." She said looking at me like my plan was idiotic.
"Of course they do know more than you, just because you go to a fancy school where you're pampered to fight Grimm, it doesn't mean that out here you know what you're doing and they don't know what they're doing, I don't know why you're being such a retard, your not thinking about the consequences of your actions," I said really wanting here to see the gravity of her decisions. I'm actually being serious, her whole team could die because she made the wrong decision.
"Hey lay off Andres, you're getting annoying," Fox said with an annoyed face which was directed at me.
"Hhhhh… fine, but when we get out of here you and I are going to have a serious talk, Coco," I said mustering all of the maturity I could because it's slowly disappearing as she talks more.
"Sure mom, you wanna ground me too." She said mocking me for what I said. That really annoyed me, no stay calm only good thoughts remember you're in a cave filled with Grimm.
"Coco, that's enough we need to keep our focus clear, we're in enemy territory now," Yatsuhashi said with a commanding voice damn is it authoritative? He must be really annoyed with this, also he seems the most level headed of the group.
"There is no Grimm though, we haven't seen any and we've been walking for 10 minutes." She said confidently that there is no Grimm. I swear she better not have jinxed us.
Wanting to be the best prepared if Grimm are here. "Let's keep going, Yatsuhashi and Velvet you guys stay in front because Yatushashi can tank the hits and Velvet can see in the dark, Coco you're in the middle you're the support with the minigun, but use it sparingly I don't think the walls of this place can take the firepower of your gun, I and Fox will take the back, Fox has his "ADA" and that is useful to protect our rear." There I mustered up all of the tactics I could. They look at each other with confusion about what to do. Feeling angrier by the second I say. "For the love of god please get in your positions." I handed Yatsuhashi the flare for his and the group's best interests. You gotta have the point guy have the best equipment.
"I'm getting tired of you trying to take charge, you are probably wanting to take my team away from me." She said saying a completely stupid accusation.
"Seriously, what is wrong with you, you seemed fine when I first met you, but why did you become an arrogant idiot all of the sudden." I yelled because I was getting tired of this pointless arguing.
"I'm not arrogant, I just know there isn't any Gr…." She was saying until Velvet shushed her.
Having a finger in the air signaling everyone to shut up and she looked intently in front of her. "Coco shush I see some movement in front of us, stay alert." When she finished the sentence we all pulled out our weapons and got ready for a fight. Yatsuhashi his giant green Sword, Fox his red gauntlets, Velvet well she brought out nothing, she just lifted her legs, and Coco who had her smirk wiped off her face and she had her giant minigun out.
Finally, Coco started taking this seriously. She put her purse/minigun in her hand and got into a stance. The rest of the team put up their guard too. I should've loved how she was just proven wrong, but I really don't, now I know we have a chance of dying here for real. I really don't want to fight Grimm in here. It's too dark and the ceiling is seven feet from my head. This cave is a terrible place to fight.
" Grimm their coming!" She yelled as her face of determination turned into fear. "Guy this place is a Nest." She said as fear came into her voice.
"A Nest, what does that mean!" I yell out wanting an answer.
'It means that all types of Grimm live here and mostly the ancient kind." Yatsuhashi said worriedly.
"You've gotta be kidding me, then let's get ready to kill them all," I said pumping myself up for a fight.
"Andres this is a Nest, there could be hundreds maybe thousands in here, we can't take them all on," Fox said with venom in his voice, seriously either this guy really doesn't like me or he has some serious issues.
"We have to try, I'm not dying here and neither are you guys." I yelled hoping I put some optimism into them. Hope is the best weapon.
The Grimm came from the front where Yatsuhashi and Velvet where they started to kill Grimm left and right. Velvet beat them to nothingness and then she pulled out a box that made a weapon appear, guess that's her weapon I wondered where it was. Coco started to fire at the Grimm tearing them to shreds. I went to the left of Yatsuhashi taking on any stragglers and Fox went to the right of Velvet. We killed and killed for ten minutes straight and the horde started to separate us slowly. As we fought for our lives I lit the rest of the flare except for one to give us a good sight on our enemies.
After five minutes I couldn't see the rest of them anymore just Grimm. With my Longsword in my dominant hand, my right and my Shortsword in my left getting ready to take on this sea of Grimm if I had to live, I wasn't going to die here. Cutting straight through a Beowolf and then I grabbed a boar looking Grimm by the tusks and pointed it straight toward the hundreds of Grimm coming for us. The fucker went straight for them like Sonic's spinning move and went through them like a hot knife through butter.
The horde was slowed down a bit, hopefully helping the others. The Grimm still kept coming, we must have killed more than three hundred already, but there were still more.
My instincts kicked in and I dodged a swipe from an old looking Ursa from behind. Getting a Shadow of Mordor's idea, I jump over it and put my Shortsword into its back to steer it. It was working. I pointed where and it went, feeling like I was a knight on a very ugly horse I slashed at every Grimm the Ursa came next too and the Ursa crushed any unlucky Grimm it rammed into.
After two minutes and at least thirty Grimm dead by my idiotic idea the Ursa I was on decided it didn't want to live anymore and disappear while I was on it. Falling down unbalanced from the sudden fall another Ursa major saw an opening and struck me.
The pain in my body was ignorable, but he must have taken a hefty chunk of Aura, damn shouldn't do that next time. Putting my Shortsword through its neck I got up. I kept dodging and killing every Grimm that came up against me. I noticed a weird thing the more I killed the more other Grimm stayed away from me. All the Grimm I've killed were not that old, they were young, they didn't have any armor. Looking around I see the older ones were behind all the younger Grimm, they must be waiting until I tired myself out to kill me, Clever girls.
Sheathing my Shortsword and pulling my Revolver out to cause some havoc to their plan. Killing five, the older ones started to move towards me probably initiating their plan. I spotted one Beowolf that was huge with its entire arms filled with bone armor and in varied spots, spikes protruded from its body. It's the biggest logic should dictate that he's the leader so it's first. The older ones were stronger than the younger ones, but not by that much. One good slash did kill them, soon half of the older Grimm was dead by my Longsword, but not without giving me some good lumps before they died. The leader of the pack must have decided to attack me itself because it came at me with incredible speed slashing at my chest and scraping my chestplate leaving a slash mark on it, dammit gotta keep my Aura unconsciously up if I make another mistake like that I'm dead.
Being pushed back from the attack and when I was about to move I was attacked from the back by another Grimm. Dammit, they waited until an opening came to them. Killing the ones that attacked me from behind, but the second they were dead the leader hit me from behind again flaring my Aura and throwing me at some clueless Grimm. While flying I prepared an Aura strike and let it loose on the Grimm I flew toward killing 8 of them in an instant making room for my landing, wow that was actually very useful, so using that more. Landing with some grace I turned to the big problem I was dealing with, the leader.
The leader was coming at me with incredible speed to stab my chest. With the block move that I taught myself, I put Aura into my left palm and when the leader was close enough I stopped its claws with my newly named Aura Guard, taking almost no Aura and the attack was stopped instantly. The leader was stunned by its stab being stopped. With this perfect opening, I went under it's attacking arm and slashed at it severing it. Wow, my new Sword is so fucking sharp that I cut through Grimms armor so easily, feeling lucky I went for another hit this time going for the head. The slash was filled with Aura and beheaded it with almost no resistance. Wooo was it's attacks so painful, fuck that asshole, getting back into the fighting I kept slaughtering all of the Beowolves and Ursas in my way and when the ones with the tusks I'd do what I did back then, I would send them on their way to kill their kin.
The horde of Grimm seemed a lot smaller, but the Grimm left were ancient looking with bone armor all over. With some space from all the Grimm for the first time, I looked around.
Seeing what looked like a choreographed dance by Team CFVY they were slaughtering every Grimm that came close. They were killing the ancient Grimm incredibly easily, but they looked very tired and beaten from all of the fighting. They must have been taking on most of the Grimm.
They look like they were doing fine, but Coco was going slower than the rest, she didn't see the attack from her right, she was hit in the face making a cracking sound throwing her across the cave separating her from her team by a lion looking Grimm that looks terrifying. Fox saw this and tried to get to her, but more lion Grimm stopped him from running to her, with my hand waving in the arm for him to see me and I yelled over the noise. "I got her!" I ran up to her and grabbed her. She looked like she got the wind knocked out of her and was also discombobulated. "Hey, you good," I said really hoping she didn't get knocked out because that's a terrible thing to happen right in the middle of combat.
Then she opened her mouth, yes she's awake then she mutters. "Wha..wa..uhh" Goddammit, she passed out, I jinxed myself now she's a liability.
"Dammit, she knocked out, help!" I yell to Team CFVY and hope for them to hurry up.
'We're coming!" I heard Fox yell almost like he was freaking out.
They were surrounded by another horde of Grimm stopping them from coming to me. Felling the ground start to quake and shake, then like the universe said fuck you to me, a fucking huge scorpion came out of the floor twenty feet away. Are you serious? I can't fight that, so I grabbed Coco's unconscious body and threw her on my shoulder, and ran for our lives. Looking back hoping that it wasn't coming after me and like the universe added another insult the scorpion was coming at me with speed that it should not have. Putting Aura into my legs for more speed I ran faster. I had to dodge Grimm that I was running past and soon I was cornered. Feeling like I could do it, I jumped on top of a Beowolf and kept moving on the other Grimms head.
After getting twenty feet away I got to the ground I looked back and the scorpion was still chasing me and was ramming through the Grimm I ran past. I could use this to my advantage, so with my infinite wisdom I started running past every Grimm I saw hoping that they would get killed by friendly fire.
After 10 minutes of dodging as much as possible and getting hit every once and a while, I was starting to get tired, but a lot of the Grimm were dead because of the scorpion's friendly fire, thank you giant scorpion I just wish you were a good scorpion instead of a bad one.
Slowing down because of fatigue of running so much the scorpion started closing in. With a swipe of it's yellow tail, I was hit on the ribs making my Aura flare and throwing me and Coco to the wall of the cave. Getting up and seeing the scorpion closing in on me again, but this time I didn't have enough time to grab Coco and run for it, I stood on pain filled legs and got ready to fight. Arming myself with my Longsword and getting ready to block all of its attacks to protect Coco.
I'm also wondering where in the fuck are the rest of them, why aren't they helping me already. Charging at my tail first getting ready to impale me. Putting Aura in the palm of my left hand I blocked the attack, but the attack went through my Aura and stabbed my palm, fuck so it can't stop all attacks.
The scorpion was stunned and with this, I slashed half of its eyes. Blinding the right side of its face is shrieked into the air.
Looking at me with fury in its red eyes it attacked me with one of its huge claws. After I dodged that it went for the other claw and kept this us until I slipped on some mud. With its left claw, it hit me hard throwing me away from the unconscious Coco and into one of the walls far away.
Slowly getting up I see the scorpion was feet away from impaling Coco's unconscious body.
No, I can't let her die even if she was being a bitch earlier. Getting up and running to save her before she was killed. Reaching out with my right hand hoping I could reach her, Dammit Dammit please I don't want her to die, Please God Don't Let Her Die!
In a red blur, the scorpion's tail was impaled stopping it. Seeing that the blur slowed down, it was a red line and it was leading back to my hand. Is this my Semblance, this line thing?
Hoping I could control it, I swipe with my hand and nothing happens. The scorpion was looking at me now and started charging me. Ok, it doesn't do what I say with gestures so thoughts then. Thinking of something and when the scorpion was just ten feet away multiple red lines came out of the ground impaling the scorpion and wrapping around it keeping it in place. It wasn't dead, but it couldn't move. Remembering Coco was alone I ran to her. Grabbing her and opening her eyes with my hands. Then she started to blink, yes she's awake I can finally stop carrying her. She kept blinking and then she started to pick herself up. Standing up on his feet, she looked like a wreck, she was standing unbalanced. Seeing her about to fall over I grab her and pull her arm over my other shoulder to help her walk. "Hey, you good now Coco?"
"I don't know?" She said looking like she just went through hell.
"Don't worry, I won't let the Grimm hurt you," I said giving her a promise to protect her.
"The Grimm aren't a problem anymore, they're all dead," Fox said annoyed as he walked towards us. Punching the scorpion once hard in the face and it exploded, damn that what I call power.
"Cool," I said relieved that the Grimm were dead now, but where were they? "Where in the living fuck were you guys when I needed help 15 minutes ago!" I said really annoyed they took so much time.
"Sorry we were fighting off an army of Grimm while you were dancing around with Coco was on your back, do you know how much danger you put her in!" He said yelling at my actions. He was right, but it was my only option to keep us both safe and I knew he was really upset because the Scorpion I trapped was killed with just one of his punches while he was walking towards me.
"It was the only thing I could think of," I tell him hoping he'd understand what situation I was in.
"You idiot you could have gotten her killed!" He said getting angrier at me.
"You're right, I shouldn't have done that, so they're all dead?" I said really this is all of the Grimm I thought this would be way harder to survive.
"No, not every Grimm in the cave is dead, but they won't be a problem for an hour or so," Fox said with venom pointed at me.
"Let's find a place to rest, we can't keep fighting in the condition we're in, Fox find us a secure place," I commanded him while picking Coco up bride style, when he heard this he really wanted to yell at me, but remembered that Cocos was still out of it.
"Over there, it's a really defendable place, we can rest there for now." He said pointing at the other side of the cave.
We started walking over to it, we went through the battlefield we made, before it was smooth dirt, but now there were holes everywhere and the ground uneven, damn did we do some damage.
The others looked fine the one who was the worse off was Fox his Aura was down and he was bleeding all over he must have been reckless when Coco was hit because before he looked fine, Yatsuhashi had scratches all over him, but that was nothing he still had his Aura up good, Velvet looked like she wasn't hit so her Aura is still up and their Coco her Aura's up, so you could still be knocked out while your Aura's on, good to know.
I was doing alright just a lot of bruises and a bloody nose and a stab on my left palm, am I going to be poisoned please not now I prayed. We finally got to the place to rest, the entrance was small, but when you got past that it was roomy enough for all of us to lay down snow angel style. Getting in I lay down Coco on the right side of our impromptu safe house, she was awake, but couldn't move because of the pain, seeing her shivering I unbuckled some of my straps to take off my black flannel, finally getting my flannel disentangled from the straps I cover Coco with it hoping it will help her.
Looking around I see all of them tired, but Fox was still bleeding, not heavily, but enough to cause concern. Pulling out my pocket sized first aid and patched myself up real quick then walked over to Fox, but when I got close enough he looked at me with anger in his white eyes and said. "Don't even try."
Not wanting to get into another argument I go to Velvet and say. "Hey, can you patch up Fox for me, he doesn't really like me."
"Yeah sure, can you go help warm Coco up she's still shivering." She says as she takes the first aid from my hand and walks over to the injured Fox. Good because I don't really know much about first aid and I don't know if Aura protects us from diseases and infections. If it does then if Earth had it so many people could be saved, but no I should never do that because Earth will go to war someday and I really don't want World War Superman to be on my hand.
Walking over to Coco to help her out I see Yatsuhashi and I get an idea because I really don't want to get up close to Coco. "Hey, Yatsuhashi come help me heat up Coco."
"Sorry I won't, she's not my girlfriend and I won't do anything that could be seen as cheating, I'll be on watch while you guys rest." He said with a confident face, I'm really glad he's on guard duty because I feel really safe knowing a friendly behemoth is protecting us.
"You have a girlfriend congrats, also did you or your girl make that rule?" I said wanting to know.
"I did." He said with a smile on his face.
"I like a guy with conviction, good for you man, this world needs more people like you, and thanks for taking the first watch," I said happy for the guy, he seems like a really good guy. He walked to the entrance with a smile from my compliment.
Looking back to my target then Remembering that I wanted him to do this instead of me, but now I have to do it. now I have to warm her up by myself, this is going to be awkward. I got to her and she was asleep probably from the fatigue from fighting for almost an hour straight. Laying down to the right of her and lift my flannel and cover both of us with it and wrapping my arms around her so my body heat could start to warm her up. Yes, this is weird, but I can't start a fire with nothing so this is the only option. I really didn't want to do this, but everyone is doing something else and I'm the only one who can help. She starts to move in my arms, thinking she's about to wake up. I freak out a little bit, but she stops moving.
Good, now that fight was really crazy back there, there so many Grimm, and my Semblance was unlocked, I wonder what it was because it was, but a red line I really hope it's really strong. I am a little annoyed that I didn't get a traditional Super Hero power, but if my power is useful it's fine and if it's strong that will be awesome. Thinking about it more, my Semblance is strong. It impaled that scorpion and was able to keep it trapped until Fox killed it.
Wanting to know what I could do with my Semblance so I tried to summon it. Lifting my hand a little and thinking, but nothing happened. Dammit ok, so it must be activated by a certain emotion that I was feeling when I first activated it. What was I feeling I was angry, sad, and afraid, but mostly angry I wouldn't be able to save Coco. That's it anger that's the key to my Semblance. Anger that's easy to summon, I have so much pent up anger from everything that's been happening since I came to this world.
Making myself get angry by thinking about my planet and family being held hostage, me being fucking tortured, and Adam just toying with me before he was going to slaughter those innocent people. Closing my eyes and I tried to summon my power again, then I felt something leaving my body, opening my eyes I saw hundreds of lines of red in the air in front of me. Ok, so I can command them by thought, but might as well do some hand motions, what I always wanted to control things just by moving my hand, don't judge me.
Thinking of a spear more of these lines come from my body and slowly because I couldn't just think of spear and boom it's created, no I had to manually do it thinking about the shaft to the tip would be and I did it, a little downside is that the string always have to be connected to me or they disappear. My god I had the String String devil fruit, that is one of the most powerful powers I could think of. It's so versatile and so powerful, yes my chances of saving Earth have just gone up.
Playing around with my Semblance I made a lot of things practicing and slowly it started to get easier. Too busy playing around with my Semblance I didn't see an infuriated Fox coming at me. I was startled by him suddenly yelling. "You fucking perv what is wrong with you!" When I looked at his face he looked like he wanted to tear me in half then he opened his mouth again. "Get away from her you creep before I kick your ass." He said getting ready to fight me.
"Wait, I'm just warming her up!" I said, giving my reason as to why I'm hugging her.
"What, you could have just used fire Dust to warm her up, no you just want to touch her while she's at her most vulnerable!" He said getting angrier by the second by what he made up in his mind of what I was doing.
"No I wouldn't do that, please hear me out I didn't know we had fire Dust and I didn't see any other way to warm her up so I thought to use my body heat to do it!" I said hoping somebody will save me because even though I train my body to fight I'm not as strong as him.
"Don't fuc.." He was saying until Coco spoke up calmly.
"Fox stop yelling, it was a mistake on his part, he really didn't know about Dust. We have fire Dust. He just wanted to help anyway he can." She said getting up and calming Fox down before he attacked me.
"I..i.I'm sorry I accused you." He said almost like it was incredibly hard to say.
"It's alright and sorry Coco I did that to you without talking to you, I should have told you, but you were sleeping and I didn't want to wake you," I said giving my reasons why.
"It's alright, now I know why my nap felt really good, and stop apologizing. It's not like you molested me." She said while doing stretches.
"Yeah, you're right, sorry," I said while I detached myself from her and started getting up.
"Hey, I'm still not warmed up yet, you're going to leave me freezing." She said, winking at me, what's with her, her attitude changed, because me and her were fighting just an hour ago, but now she's flirting with me. Well, I think this is flirting.
Not wanting to be in an awkward position I tried to say no in my own way. "But I thought you didn.."
"I didn't say anything about you stopping." She said, wiggling her eyebrows.
Almost giving up resisting I said. "Sure, but wouldn't the fire Dust be better." My last attempt at escape.
She said. "Shut up and get over here." Dammit, it didn't work, whatever, at least I'll build up a tolerance for being close to pretty girls I thought as I started hugging Coco again. "Fox, you look mad, are you jealous?" She said in a joking tone
"No, why would I be." He said with a blush on his face and with a voice of obvious jealousy.
"Don't know, but you wanna join in on the group hug." She said reaching out with her left arm.
"Sure." He said almost childlike, damn this dude has a major crush on this girl. He goes to the opposite side of Coco.
"Great, it's a threesome now, hey Velvet join in, I'm still cold." She said wanting her teammates to join in, why does she have to be so sexual.
"But ma'am." Velvet said not wanting to be in the Human pile.
"No buts, get over here," Coco said in a playful voice. Velvet walked over and joined in on Fox's side.
"Now it's a foursome, now Andres no touching me, I know how much you want to." She said singling me out, I hope this is normal her and not just her trying to have sex with me. Might as well banter with her.
"I would be touching if we had a room to ourselves," I said wanting to be the champ of our little banter.
"Wow a flirter, I'll think about it, maybe later." She said nonchalantly. Wait is she for real, if she is I can't, what if I have a kid on Remnant, what do I do then. Are Humans and Remnants compatible to have children?
Wanting to change the subject I say. "You feel better Coco?"
"Yeah I feel warmer, but for some reason, I'm feeling sleepy." She said with a yawn.
"That's bad you might have a concussion, you're not allowed to sleep until we get you to a doctor," I said with seriousness in my voice.
"Fine mom, I also see that you unlock your Semblance, I saw it right as you saved me from being shish kabobed by that Deathstalker, thanks by the way." She said wanting to know my Semblance. So that huge scorpion is called a Deathstalker, damn does it have a cool name.
"Uhh yeah, I did," I said not giving much information.
"What does it do?" Coco said, wanting to know.
"It's string." I say not really thinking about it, also wow that couldn't have come out of my mouth any lamer.
"Awww that's lame." She said not seeing the applications it had.
"It really isn't, it's so powerful and so versatile I can create so many things just look," I said creating a red line that looked like a whip.
"Damn that's actually cool, so what are you gonna call it?" She said getting excited to help name it.
"Wait you gotta give it a name?" I said confused. It's a power it doesn't need a name, just call it what it is.
"Duhh, we give everything a name to our weapons to our Semblances." She said like it was common knowledge, maybe for her, but not me.
"I am not giving my weapons names, but I will give my Semblance one," I said yes, naming my power is pretty cool, but naming my weapons is a no no, I will never see my weapon as important in my life, a weapon is nothing more than a really cool tool, nothing more and giving it a name is me putting an attachment to the tool.
"What are you gonna name it, Andres?" Velvet said looking at me.
"I don't know, but it has to be cool," I said I really don't want a lame name for the power I'm going to have the rest of my life.
"I got it string string, or string manipulator, or …." Coco said giving out horrible suggestions, but then I got the perfect name, and if I want to change I could.
"Thread of destruction" I said really happy with the name I just gave it.
"Damn, you went really edgy with it," Fox said with a smug face.
"Shut up, that's it's name now," I said confirming it.
"Yes, Sir Edgelord." Coco said joining in on the making fun of, then I heard someone stomach growl. "I'm really hungry right now," Coco said with her hand on her stomach.
Remembering my snack bars in my pocket I say. "Here, I brought these in case I got hungry," I said handing her them with a kind smile on my face. I've never been the one to keep the food only for myself I always share, I don't really know why, but I like it when people's faces light up for a second.
"Aww thanks." She said happily taking them with a huge smile, then her smile turned morbid suddenly then she said. "I'm sorry about back there." Ohhhh yeah she was being a bitch an hour ago, but she was freaking out so I'll let it go, besides I'm not the holding a grudge type.
"Don't worry about it. We all were a little heated up back there." I said forgiving her.
She didn't want to drop it like that so she said. "That doesn't excuse what I did. I didn't listen to you because i..i..I wanted to feel like I was in charge." She said giving me and the FV of her team why she was acting weird back then.
"But you were in charge the whole time," I said not understanding why she would think that.
"I know, it's just that I felt insecure about you commanding my team while I should have been the one to do it." She said with a face of shame.
"Hey, your team would never listen to me if you haven't told them they had too, I could never replace you," I said hopefully raising her spirits with it.
"He's right Coco." Velvet said with absolute certainty.
"Yeah, he is." Fox said to add more impact to my little speech.
"Thanks, Andres for hitting me with some logic and mostly you guys being my friends." She said squeezing us more than before.
"No problem." All of us said at the same time, jinx they owe me a soda now. Could actually go for a soda right now.
Feeling bad for taking Yatsuhashi's spot so after a couple of minutes I untangled myself from the Human pile to go to Yatsuhashi to send him here.
"Hey Yatsuhashi, I'll take watch, go have some cuddles from your team," I said, relieving him from guard duty.
"Of course, thank you Andres." He said with a slight smile.
Sitting down and thinking about what happened to the Apathy I'm pretty sure we didn't kill it. I really do want to kill the Grimm, it's just that I really don't want to put my new friends in danger.
We've just been in this safehouse for 40 minutes and I started to feel weird, it's like that feeling when you don't want to get up in the morning. It feels like something was taking my Will, wait my Will is being taken. Jumping up and immediately yelling at the other to have their guard up. "Hey the Apathy's near!"
"Where is it!" Coco yells back as all of them get ready for a fight.
"Don't know, but my Will's being taken," I said wanting them to be on guard.
Looking around every direction feeling really not safe, Then the wall to my right started crumbling and a dark red spot was shining. Not liking that color I investigate it. As I got closer the more my instincts were going off. Being a foot away I touched the red spot, but as I touched the wet slimy red thing a skreicked when off. Feeling my Will leave my body fast, it's the Apathy.
The wall started crumbling and showing the Grimm we've been hunting. Wow, that's some good luck. All of us immediately start going ham on it. It wasn't even a fight, it was just a slaughter, the Apathy was really durable, but a couple of hits from all of us killed it fast. Wow that was really easy now we can get out of here.
"Well it's dead, now we can leave." Coco said really happy. I have a really bad feeling now. Did she just jinx us?
The walls of our safehouse started to crumble before our eyes and unveiled dozens of Apathies. Holy fuck their so many of them.
"Why the hell did you jinx us!" I yelled at Coco, but she just ignored me. She gave commands to her team that I didn't hear.
All of us started to fight the Apathies. They were really slow, but really hard to kill by yourself. They all started shrieking, but we pushed through it, but once and awhile another would shriek and take some of our Will. Seeing that my Longsword by itself did kill them, I had an idea my Semblance. Unleashing my Semblance on the Apathy I was against, hitting them with my Semblance as a whip and my incredibly sharp Longsword.
Killing them faster, but when we killed one, two more came out. Another shrieked, taking another chunk of my will, I noticed that my whip crimson red started to fade slowly as time went on. My eyes widen by the realization that my Semblance is connected to my Will and my Anger. Looking at how the others were doing they looked way worse than me, normally they would be much faster than me, but right now they started to go as fast as a turtle. Dammit, I needed to get to them, but there were 4 Apathies in my way. Another shriek went off making me want to fall to my knees, but I didn't, I needed to get to them. Looking to Team CFVY after two more shrieks they fell to the floor, but only Velvet was still up protecting her fallen comrades. Not wanting to let them die, I put all of my effort into my Semblance creating multiple whips. All of them attacked the Apathies to keep them away. Another shriek and then Velvet fell down leaving only me. Fuck, it's only me, and I can't take on 2 dozen Apathy by myself, but despite my rational thought I kept fighting.
Getting angry about everything again to fuel my Semblance, my red whips slowly turned a deeper red showing that more power was put into them. Using them on the Apathies and slowly they started to fall. Another shriek made me fall on one knee.
No, I can't fall, not now, not ever. Putting even more of my Will into my Semblance killing the Apathies faster. My whips attacked without discrimination hitting the walls, ceiling, and floor repeatedly and making impact marks everywhere. The pack slowly turned to only 7 more. Feeling like I could make it and save us before they took the rest of my Will away, I turned all of my whips into a single giant spear. Throwing it at one of Apathy, it went straight through it almost instantly. I threw it at another and another 7 turned to 2 more. Throwing the giant spear again at the second to last Grimm, it went straight through it like the rest, but it hit the floor and created a hole in its wake.
The floor beaten from our battle started to collapse. Wanting to back up from the collapsing floor, but I couldn't do it my legs didn't want to move. Fuck I can't move, slowly my weight started to destroy the floor under me, and finally, it did, sending me into a deep hole to where I didn't know. Seeing Coco at the edge of the hole holding her hand out to grab me, I saw a way I could save myself. Sending a compressed whip of thread at her to grab her hand. Just an inch away then it touched her hand, but her Aura flared and my whip was disintegrated. Seeing my whip vanish stunned me, falling down the hole not knowing where I would land. After thirty seconds I look down to see the floor inches from my face and with that, I was knocked out cold.
"My fucking face," I say rubbing my face with my hand, Where am I? Looking to my left I saw something would haunt my dreams for at least a couple of weeks. The last Apathy was in my face with its mouth open showing me the bottomless blackness inside of it, I couldn't move at all and it took advantage of it. It shrieked in my face, taking the rest of my Will. I lay my head on the floor. I couldn't move and I didn't want to anymore. I didn't want to suffer anymore, I'm tired of taking the hits, I'm tired of having nightmares every night either by Adam who came after me again to finish the job, or not having my left arm anymore, or Coal torturing me again, and seeing my world burn, I don't want to have to fight anymore.
Then the extinguished Flame inside of me gained back a spark. What about my family, my mother, the people who believe in me and Clover? I can't just give up, rise come on Rise, Rise, Rise!
"Ahhhhhhh" I roared as thousands of threads left my body and impaled the Apathy's whole body, killing it. Seeing the Grimm on top of me start to disappear I pass out from mental fatigue.
Minutes later I wake back up. Freaking out I jump to standing and get into a defensive stance. Looking around there weren't any signs of Grimm or my group, dammit we were separated.
My surroundings have changed instead of the walls made of dirt or stone. It was made of really old brick, Humanity's been here before, only brick has been made by us. A fucking old and slightly destroyed ancient building was in front of me, I mean like how does this happen, unless a fucking hole just appeared under this building and fell down here. Seeing that there was an entrance to it, feeling a little curious I walked into the entrance.
Walking in I saw what looked like a museum, every direction in it was filled with ruined paintings. All of the paintings were destroyed from being in the elements. At the center of the museum, there was a dirty destroyed blanket covering the wall, like it was hiding something important. Walking toward it with curiosity, I grabbed the blanket and removed it to look at what was behind.
It was a mural and it was massive, damn was it still beautiful even if some of it was ruined. There were two Human looking figures one was Dark Purple with Horns on its head and a Bright Yellow Figure with Horns on its head, they were surrounded with what looked like people praying to them, but behind the two colorful figures was a faded, but noticeable darkness behind them that looked in the shape of hands that had strings connected to the back of them. It looked beautiful even though it was a little dirty, but I felt that this is incredibly important. I'm so gonna remember this. About to walk away I saw a piece of the mural I didn't see before. It was a woman on a trail, she gets to a temple and inside she finds a Golden Scroll and she opens it and a portal filled with lights of every color appears in front of her. Wow, this is amazing, but I need to get back to the group before anything bad happens.
I gave the mural one last look, but as I looked at it Paarthurnax spoke up with hatred in his voice. "It's them!"
"Paarthurnax, what do you mean by them?" I said curiously I've almost never heard him angry and these two figures made him so.
"Th...they...I'm sorry I can't tell you yet." He calmed himself down and tried to hide it from me. I hate being puppeteered and right now I'm following a mission and I don't know why he wants it done and it makes me incredibly angry.
"Paarthurnax I'm tired of you not giving me the whole story, what are you hiding from me!" I yell I want to know why he wants me to hurt this Witch, why he's going to destroy Earth even when he doesn't want to, I want the fucking reasons!
"I..I'll tell you once you finish protecting the Village, it's being attacked right now, and if you don't help it'll be destroyed," Paarthurnax said redirecting me. The Town needs our help.
"Goddammit, once this is over you will tell me everything!" I yell, I want to know why I'm doing any of this.
"I will, but you should know the reason why I never told you was because I needed to make sure I could trust you." He said calmly.
Running back to the hole I fell down, I needed to get back to the others, but how.
Idiot brain remember you got powers now. Focusing my Semblance I create six thread tails coming out of my back like Tokyo ghoul's Kaneki. Making every tail go into the wall and slowly climbed up. I really hope that they are still up there and haven't left me because we need to get to the town before it's destroyed.
Also, I hypothesize that my Semblance either disappears if it touches Aura or if it touches a Human because it disappeared when it touched Coco, but I do believe that it's Aura because her Aura flared up when I touched her with it, great I can't use it on actual warriors. Doing the breathing exercise that Clover taught me I started feeling my Aura inside my body, I feel like it's about 80 percent thank goodness from that hour long break, and also my Semblance is taking some Aura.
Hopefully, the others had some rest and have more Aura than me. Finally, after 7 minutes of climbing, I get to the top and use my thread tails to leave me off a couple of feet from the deep hole I came out of. My feet touch the ground and my tails disintegrate. Looking around I see some wrappers of the granola bars I was carrying on the floor, so they did leave hopefully they didn't go far.
Exiting our "safehouse" Which wasn't that safe whatsoever. I look around and see some footprints going deeper into the cave so I follow them. Soon I heard the sound of Fox's voice. "Coco, why are we going after him, he's probably dead from that fall." Wow, he's all rainbows and sunshine, Asshole.
"Fox he is a comrade, he's the reason we are even alive we cannot leave him when he's at his hour of need!" Yatsuhashi said angrily at his teammate for being so cynical. Aww you know I really like you Yatsuhashi, you're such a good guy.
"But we're wasting time he's already dea…" Fox says trying to convince Coco to call off the search.
"Dead, I seem a little too handsome to be dead," I said putting my hand on my face, making a gesture to show off how handsome I am, making a big reveal for them.
They turned around and saw me. "Andres you're ok!" Coco said running up to me to hug me. It's nice getting a hug sometimes, but now's not the time.
"Yup, listen guys Silverkeep being attacked right now and it needs us," I say wanting to get to the point.
Coco detached herself from me and said. "Really, wait how do you know." Confused how I know.
"Just believe me please!" I say hoping they believe me.
"Ok let's get out of this cave, but how?" Coco says
"Let's get back to the entrance," I said having an idea to get out of here.
"Why?" Velvet says, confused why go back to the entrance.
"I have an idea, I'm going to use my Semblance," I said with a confident smile.
"Why didn't you use it back then?" Fox said angrily, why is he angry, he should know about me unlocking my Semblance after we came in here.
"Because I didn't unlock it," I said annoyed by his attitude since I met him, he questions everything I do. It's annoying. I'm normally a person who avoids conflict, but I'm really getting annoyed now.
We ran back to the entrance, we don't have the luxury of taking our time, the town's under attack. Getting to the entrance I summoned hundreds of threads. I concentrate on them all on my arm and slowly wove them together creating a drill on my arm. Holy shit is my Semblance so cool, I'm so glad I got it, the drill was big enough to make a hole big enough for us to crawl through. Making all of the thread spin was pretty tricky, but I got the hang of it.
The way I made it spin without making it get big at the same time, I pushed more thread out while cutting off the excess thread. I started to drill to the right of the collapsed entrance, after 3 minutes of drilling we finally got to the outside. I waited for them to get out for me to do this. I untangle my thread and turn it into multiple whips and destroy the way I just made, can't let the nest inside there get out anytime soon.
Finally we got out of that hellhole. Now we gotta get to the town. We started running through the night, but not fast enough for us to be tired when we get to the town, I know when we get there it's going to get crazy and we're going to need all the energy we can make it through.
We kept running even when a Grimm was in the way, most Grimm I came near I did a run by slash, it killed most of them, but some of them were left wounded. The closer we got to the town the more Grimm there were. Finally, after 45 minutes, we got to the town. Grimm were everywhere the eye can see, but they couldn't get past the wall so they were kept at bay. Good, the wall hasn't been breached and the citizens are still safe.
To get to the wall where at least 3 hundred Grimm in our way I had an idea that would hopefully work. "When I create the bridge go!" I yell to the team. Creating the six tails from before, but combining them into a small platform coming out of my hand. I made it far enough where they could just jump at the end of it and get on the wall. They listened and jumped on and got onto the wall. Good, they got to the defense, they can take charge.
Feeling a little aggressive I turned my thread platform into a giant whip to start fighting. Using it on the Grimm, the way it looked from a top down view as if I was brooming them aside.
The Grimm did not die, but they were pushed aside. Running through the clearing I made I got to the wall. I turned around and saw the Grimm coming.
I'm a close combat guy and I need to be more experienced so I can become stronger. Making up my mind on fighting I pull out my Shortsword with my left and my Longsword with my right and to top it off I made three tails, I would have made more, but I feel I shouldn't push my Semblance too far yet and definitely not in this situation. Charging the army of Grimm I start with an Aura strike killing 8 in the process and continuing on the attack I use the tails to push back the Grimm that would cause trouble and often I would stab them with it. I kept going until a Deathstalker made an entrance coming from the forest, charging at me it knocked over its fellow Grimm and crushed the ones in its way. As it was getting closer I got ready to fight, but I heard a spinning sound and remember the woman had a big gun.
Coco on the wall fired her minigun at the Deathstalker killing it in an instant, wow she's fucking really strong.
Fox and Yatsuhashi came down to help me and Velvet was nowhere to be seen, wondering where she was. I wondered what about the flying Grimm until I saw a Nevermore get obliterated, I quickly triangulate the bullet and it led to a watchtower, inside pocking out of the building was a Fucking anti-aircraft gun. Well, it is reasonable in war the flying enemies are the most dangerous and can turn the tide of war.
Coco was giving us cover fire as we took on the army of Grimm. The guards on the wall came to Coco slowly probably because of the Apathies abilities to steal our fighting spirit to kill the shit out of the Grimm.
They fire alongside Coco killing Grimm in our blind spots. The wave of Grimm didn't slow down, I think that the Grimm around the wall are coming after us now, why attack the town that has a wall when some of the Humans outside of it. That is very good and bad at the same time.
We kept fighting until I heard Coco yelp. Looking at her and I see her with her back towards me and she got pushed back almost falling off the wall, fuck she got shot. Shit, I need to help her.
"Yatsuhashi, Fox, Cocos in trouble, fall back!" I say not wanting the horde of Grimm overrun them because I left. Jumping onto the wall I immediately went to Coco who was on her ass behind a small crate, she was fine, but her Aura was flaring. That's not a good sign. "Coco what happened," I said checking her.
"Someone's shooting us from behind over there!" She yelled pointing over to a big clock tower. So a shooters in there, why are they shooting the guards there protecting you, you idiot. Unless they want the town to fall.
Fuck the Grimm are attacking, but we can't let a person slowly take us down, ok the shooter needs to be taken down, I'm only taking one person with me. Thinking of who to take just in case it's someone I can't take on by myself. "Ok me and Fox will get them, Coco, Yatsuhashi keep the Grimm out of the town," I said giving the orders.
"Gotcha!" Coco yelled with a thumbs up.
"Fox you and I are going after the shooter," I said running towards the clock tower.
"Where's the shooter!?" He said looking around with a pissed face to see the shooter while running with me.
"Over there on the tower, we're wasting time talking, let's stop them!" I said wanting to get rid of this asshole before they kill more people.
We kept running to the tower, but the shooter must have seen us coming because they started shooting at us. We kept out of the tower's sight and kept going to it. I got shot twice, the bullets were high caliber rounds probably a sniper rifle. Dodged another bullet I took cover to take a little breather. Having a look around to calm me down and I see the bullet hole the shooter made was leaking black smoke like what Grimm leaves after death. Feeling I should investigate it I telepathically talk to Fox. "Hey Fox, remember the ground-penetrating radar I asked about, use it right now?"
"Why the hell would I use it right now!?" He yelled back to me like I was stupid. Maybe I am, but I just want to be on the side of caution.
"Please listen, check if there are any Grimm in the ground!" I calmly as possible talk back.
I wait a couple of seconds and I hear Fox respond. "Holy shit, there dozens everywhere!" He yelled fearfully.
Feeling I know what Grimm they are, I ask Fox for confirmation. "What Grimm are they?"
"Their fucking Apathies they've been under our feet the whole time!" He yelled.
So that's why a whole town was feeling the Apathies effect. How did no one see someone digging a hole and putting a fucking huge Apathy into it? This is probably the shooter doing. "Fox change of plan, you're going to find every Apathy and kill it the people don't look like they would last the night we need to get rid of them right now!" I ordered him.
"Got it, go find that fucking shooter and stop them!" He telepathically said not even back talking me, guess that's a start at least.
"Good luck Fox." I telepathically said pushing my luck.
"Uhhh" He telepathically said.
I finally go to the entrance to the tower after 10 minutes of taking detours and dodging bullets, fucking hell they had a shit ton of ammo. I ran inside of the tower and it was empty and there were only stairs going to the top, they had to be up there.
The tower was made of old cobblestone that looked as if it would crumble from a slight wind. The stairs I headed for were a spiral stairway all the way to the top. I ran up the stairs and got to the top, there was a door to get to where the shooter was, I kicked it down prepared to fight.
Running in I see a little girl crying in the fetal position, what the fuck I didn't expect that. I walked closer to the kid and I was about to touch her to get her attention, but my instinct told me to run. Jumping back I dodged an ugly green knife, thank you instincts.
Looking at who did, but all I saw was the green knife and the rest was in the shadows unseen. I remember this Semblance it's that Clover girl, that's probably not even her name. "Clover, if that's your name, why are you doing this?" I said backing up a bit to get out of range.
"Why do you kids always got to be annoying!" She said annoyed. What does she mean you kids?
"Please just tell me why are you doing this?" I said maybe if I understand why she's doing this maybe I can change her mind about doing this.
"People want this Village gone and I'm here to do it." She says as she gets into a stance with her sycle looking pistols.
"You're with the White Fang?" I said, I feel this won't end by talking.
"No something much bigger, enough talking die!" She yells as she charges me.
As she charged me she left the shadows and came into the moonlight. Finally getting a good look at her she had brown skin and dark red eyes. Her hair is a light, mint green with a straight fringe and bangs as well as two long locks on each side of her head. She wears two bronze colored rings on her middle fingers as well as a pair of high heels. She wore all black, overall she looked tactical like she has been planning to do this for a long time.
So she's the one to put Grimm in the ground, but how does she have control over Grimm because they would attack anyone.
I pull out my Longsword and my Shortsword to defend myself. I kept my guard up, I needed to learn how she fights before I fight back. Her style was mostly of fast and precise attacks for some reason she hasn't used her Semblance yet, why is there some sort of drawback.
I kept defending until she overdid a swing making an opening. I went for it, but she smiled and twisted her body dodging my attack and hitting my nose with the butt of her gun.
Fuck she did that on purpose, ok calm down she's doing faints now. Time to go on the offense. Attacking her with my Longsword, slowly she was being pushed back. I went for an overhead hit and she was going to block it, but I let go of my blade and fall to the ground. I summon my Semblance creating a whip and hit her legs with it, not really expecting anything from the attack. The whip disappears as her Aura flares, great my hypothesis is right.
I had a backup plan just in case it failed, so I stabbed her left leg with my Shortsword. She was fazed and kicked me in the stomach sending me across the room. Time for my real plan, landing with grace I summoned multiple incredibly small threads, they were almost invisible and made them go past her. Getting up I grab my Daggers and throw them at her hopefully hitting her, let me tell you they would have never hit her, she's too fast for that.
She just twisted her body, not even moving to dodge them. Armed with my Shortsword I got back up and went for a stab. She stands there with a cocky smile in a relaxed pose telling me she doesn't think of me as a threat, yeah smile it up bitch just wait.
I was a foot from her then I initiated the plan. She was then stunned as three blades stabbed her back, flaring her Aura.
I used my Semblance to grab my weapons that I left behind to stab her in the back, my weapons don't have Aura so they don't disappear and I still have control over them so I can control a weapon with my thread even when they come into contact with a person with Aura, good more advantages for me.
She was stunned and with this opening, I stabbed her with everything I had. I didn't stop with just a stab. I was pushing the blade into her still, she was sliding back from my force.
Focusing again she bashed the side of my head with her Kama/pistol. Wow, that hurt. I bring my weapons back to me and start sheathing them, but not locking them in. Armed with my Longsword, Shortsword duo I was about to charge, but in a fraction of a second, she cleared the gap between us and slashed at me.
Damn, I must have pissed her off. She was fast, but not as fast as Adam, thank God she's not that fast. She kept attacking me with precision and I would get a hit in once in a while. Getting pushed back to the door to the stairs.
I just got a brain blast and it was fucking stupid idea that I really should not do, but this girl is faster and stronger and obviously has way more battle experience than me, eh fuck it I need to take a risk to win.
I waited until she got close enough to start it. She went for a kick and I dodged it, but grabbed her which got me a kick in the stomach by her other leg, but it was part of the plan and I pulled her, knocking her off balance and making it so she can't do anything and threw her down the stairs. Yes I did it, but she did get me pretty good, she was able to stab me on the neck which flared my Aura before I threw her.
I jumped down the center of the tower where there were no stairs all the way down to the base. To stop myself from getting all of the fall damage, I created four tails and they smashed into all four walls slowing me down and left four huge gashes in the walls destroying the tower.
Getting to the bottom I created as many whips as possible, 8 were made and I started destroying the walls. Looking up to where "Clover!" Was she was still falling down the long stairs, but as I was about to make a joke she got a hold of herself and stood up and looked around for me. Ohh, fuck gotta hurry up. She looked down the tower and saw me destroying the walls and her eyes went wide with fear. I hit the wall one last time with all 8 whips full force and I heard the building started to creak and fall apart. Running out of the tower before I was crushed alive, I jumped outside just as the whole tower collapsed on her. God, I just 9/11 her, I feel like a piece of shit now.
That was my idea of bringing the whole building down on my opponent, I really hope nobody was near the tower because that would be an awkward conversation.
She better be dead because I dropped a fucking building on her. As I was about to go back to the wall to help out on the defense I hear someone's heels clanking.
Looking over I see Ebony walking toward me with hatchets in her hands, hoo I thought the bitch came back. "Ebony hey, sorry about the tower there was a powerf…" I said, but stopped, she was looking mighty suspicious.
"Ebony, what are you doing?" I said being more suspicious of her than ever before. She was just feet away without talking and not looking at me, I've seen enough anime and movies to know she's going to attack me. I get into a defensive stance getting ready to fight her too. She immediately goes with an overhead swing with both hatchets. I block them with both of my Swords. "Why are you attacking me? You're the Mayor, act like it." I said hopefully snapping her out of this.
With a deadpan face, she said. "I won't be soon and you'll be dead before that happens." She started to apply more force, making me put in more effort than before.
"Are you the reason the town's being attacked?" I said putting the pieces together, why didn't she want to let Team CFVY outside of the wall because they would track down the Apathy and kill it. She's the one to hire. The shitty Huntsmen and Huntresses. She must have hired fakers or low tiered warriors because the wall was barely holding up until we arrived.
The rage inside of me started to grow even bigger than before. I want to kill her now, the amount of civilians that could die is horrendous and it's all because of her.
"Someone has a brain, time for you to die." She pretty much said she's going to kill me, great instead of the illusion chick now I have to handle this bitch now.
I really want some answers, people don't do things for no reason. "Why destroy what you helped build?"
"I can have so much more if I do this." Is that why, to have material possessions.
I fucking hate people who value material possessions more than the people around you, like how a person would love their car more than their significant other. "You bitch, I'm going to kill you!" I said loudly, time to get ready to fight again.
"Many have tried, none have succeeded." She said with a cocky smile, I can't wait to wipe that off her face.
In an instant, she appears in front of me and hits me in the face with her hatchet, and takes a chunk of Aura.
Dammit she's even faster than the other girl, well she had to be, she used to be a Huntress. Time for some impromptu techniques, but not now I had to wait. I kept fighting even when my loose weapons fell out of my sheaths. I even dropped my bow and some arrows. I kept getting pushed back, feeling like it was good enough I summoned the same type of thread that I used on that other bitch.
All of the thread went to the weapons and I aimed them toward her to get ready to hit her with everything. Backing up I got ready to charge with my Longsword like I did with the other bitch. I charged and I attacked her from behind with everything my two Daggers, my Revolver, and my compound bow. She was hit by all of it from the back and it pushed her to me as I was about to ram my Swords into her, combat wise not sex wise you filthy animals.
My compound bow and Revolver kept shooting as I was pushing my Longsword into her. I felt something was wrong. I looked at the spot where I stabbed her, her clothes were cut through, but her skin was black and was stopping my blade so I jumped back, but as I did Ebony with a newly black hatchet hit me on the head and sent into the ground with an impact mark on the ground.
"Uhhhhhh" I groaned. Holy fucking shit did that fucking hurt, I felt like I was hit by a train. My Aura flickers like it was trying to stay alive, but shattered anyway, dammit I'm not going to die not now. Looking at her face and seeing a demented smile it gave me goosebumps all over my body, a typical sociopath smile.
She started to kick me, she didn't stop, she just kept kicking and kicking just like "them".
When I was little at the age of 7 I was bullied a lot for being fat, I don't know why they still did it even though a lot of kids were fat just like me, seriously they didn't have a very good reason well they were kids what do you expect. I was just a magnet for bullies they would make fun of me and push me around and one day I was walking home and one of the kids called on their big brother to beat me up, the kid's big brother was already in high school and he sounded very reasonable even though he did push my shit in, I came to the conclusion that the kid made up a lie to get his brother to kick my ass and after he did the other bullies got their own turn to hit me. It wasn't always like that that was a two time thing, but that is kinda the reason why I am so self conscious about my weight.
Back to the present Ebony was raising her hatches into the air ready to end my life.
No, I can't die NOOOO!
I think as thousands of threads come out of my body to impale Ebony, but sadly they disintegrate on her Aura. This surprised her, but she just smiled when they had no effect on her. "A useless Semblance for a useless person, now time to die." As she again prepares to kill me.
That was until she was punched in the face by a brownish red gauntlet and got thrown back by the force of the punch.
"Sorry you can't kill him, it would upset my team," Fox said as he looked straight at Ebony.
"Fox, thanks," I said, not being able to focus much. I touched my head and felt wet, shit she might have given me a concussion.
"Shut up, I really don't like you, I'll take care of her, rest." He said as he secretly tossed me the weird see through gold diamond thing, this world's phone.
Understanding what he wants me to do, I get to it. "No problem."
Secretly through telepathy. "Her Semblance is to harden her skin and weapons, she turns them black when she uses it." He gives me a thumbs up and a middle finger with both hands.
"Another one!" Ebony says with an angry face while getting up from the surprise punch. Her professional persona completely came apart. Her suit was in shreds and her hair was disheveled.
"I don't know why you're doing this, this is your town, why kill it!" Fox yelled at her.
"I already told the first kid and I'm not repeating myself!" She yelled.
"Well, you are to the police." He said which made her laugh. Dude I might have laughed if I wasn't almost out of it.
They started fighting Fox was doing way better than me. He was actually keeping her on her toes and dodging. All I could do against her was be on the defense, but he was keeping her on the defense.
He punched her, but she caught it and hit him on the ribs with her right hatchet. He then backed up and when she came charging at him he grabbed a yellow vial and threw the substance inside into the air.
Ebony saw this and tried to stop, but at that moment he punched the air and a wave of electricity hit her hard paralyzing her for a moment, using this opening he ran up and kicked her into the air and did what looked like an Uzumaki barrage from Naruto, he punched her in the face in the air then appearing behind her uppercutting her head sending her up further into the air and then he jumped up and with a flip using his momentum to do an incredibly brutal looking axe kick to her neck sending her down to the floor, the final move he fell down with his knees first into her back.
Through half of his attacks, she had her whole body coated in her Semblance and she got up with no problem making Fox back up.
While they were having their fight I slowly started picking up my weapons because they started fighting away from me. I got kinda a bad feeling and I was right as Fox was going in for a strike. She jumped up and knees him in the face with her knee coated in her Semblance and that wasn't it she started to spin around his neck with her leg and using her momentum to throw him to the side.
He gracefully landed the throw and he stood up getting ready for round two. She was as well, she turned her whole body into armor. She was lucky she did that because right behind her was an angry Yatsuhashi doing a full power swing down on her.
Booya the cavalry has arrived. She turned around at the last second, but couldn't dodge so she used her arms to protect herself. Yatsuhashi didn't let up; he kept going, making her sink into the dirt road. From behind Fox kicked the back of both of her knees making her lose her balance. A huge crack was heard from the fight and then a scream. Ebony's hand that she was using was cut off. She was just screaming while blood was gushing out. Woo, we won, also damn Yatsuhashi a one awesome hitter winner.
Damn one hit destroyed her Aura or was it her Semblance wasn't strong enough to stop that attack. But wouldn't her Aura stop the attack unless her Semblance negated it while she uses her Semblance?
Still feeling discombobulated from the kicks I look around and I see some of the rubble moves as if something was moving around. Damn is that one chick still alive.
I looked over to the rest and see Fox going to grab Ebony but like a ghost, his hand goes through…..fuck the green bitch is still here.
I look back over to the rubble moving and try to use my Semblance. Wait I can't I'm out of Aura, but why was I able to use my threads after Ebony shattered my Aura.
…..I have a hypothesis, it's that my Semblance isn't fueled by Aura, but only my Will, Angry, and Stamina. It'll explain why it's so reliant on my Anger.
I grabbed the ball of hate and anger inside me and brought it out. Suddenly I summoned hundreds of threads to surround me, I was creating a radar field, guess I was right it must be that I'm from a different planet our Semblance and how they work would be different.
Some of the thread kept disappearing to the left of me 20 feet away. Quickly I grew my thread and grabbed a huge piece of rubble from the destroyed tower, it was a huge wooden support beam and I threw it in the direction I think she was at. I hear a pained filled scream and I see Ebony crushed and knocked out by the rubble I just threw, her arm was still severed so that was real.
Damn was that lucky, or was it pure skill, Nah it was complete luck. I look at the other and give a thumbs up. Looking around to find the green haired girl she must have been helping Ebony.
After a good 5 minutes of searching, I called off the search. Guess "Clover!" ran off after I hit Ebony, I don't like having her out there, but I'm not going to waste manpower searching for her when the Grimm are still attacking.
We won woo, now how's the wall holding up. "Hey Yatsuhashi thanks for the backup, really did save our asses, how's the defense doing?" I said wanting an update.
"Great, but the commander thinks the ancient Grimm are waiting until we're tired to attack, we need to get back for the next wave," Yatsuhashi said
"I'll go back to the wall to help out can you guys capture her so she won't run off again," I said, grabbing my last weapon, my Revolver.
"Why are you going back, your Aura's down, you're of no help right now?" Fox said no agreeing with my decision
"I'll get my Aura back while I walk back!" I said not really knowing how long Aura takes to come back.
"Good luck Andres and here take this, It'll help you," Yatsuhashi says as he throws me a small vial of red Dust, I didn't know what it was.
"Cool thanks." Not really hearing what he just said because my ears were ringing really bad.
Walking back at a decent pace to the walk I started to feel the warmth of Aura again, to explain how it felt, it was as if getting that warmth when you're cold and you just wrap yourself in a blanket and you just feel so snug.
Ok so that one chick she escaped because Ebony only got away from us because we were looking at an illusion, I feel I'll see her soon. Getting to the wall I feel better my Aura's at about 12 percent damn not good, but still, I'll take anything at this point.
Getting to the base of the wall I do an Aura jump and get to the top and see the other side of it. I see at least 5 thousand Grimm barging at the wall, Jesus Christ. Pulling my bow out to take some out even if it is a meager amount. As I drew my 1 of 13 arrows on my bow a guy came next to me with a box of orange arrow tips. Felling a bit weirded out by his action I say. "You need something?"
"Don't waste ammo. Use this, its combustion Dust combined with fire Dust it'll make your arrows way more powerful." He said putting the box closer to me.
This should be good, I thought as I grabbed thirteen of them. "Thanks, what's your name?" I asked.
"Commander Elixir, are you a Huntsmen." He said with a hopeful look. I'm nowhere near Huntsmen level. Ebony almost killed me without really trying, dammit I hate being weak.
"No, but I can handle myself," I say letting him know I can fight more than the average guard.
"Good we need all the help we can get, a lot of my men fell from the shooter." He said with an angry expression, I would too if my men were being attacked by someone they were protecting.
"How many people can fight?" I said wanting some information.
"80 non-Aura guards and 7 Huntsmen if you can call them that and the 4 Beacons students. We don't have much manpower and most of them are fighting the Grimm off the main entrance." He said
"Damn do you think we'll survive this?" I said wanting a man who probably goes through things like this often opinion.
"Definitely, this town is full of fighters, if we fall the citizens will survive. They can't fight with us because of legal reasons, which absolutely stupid." He said angrily, I'm with him that fucking law hurts way more people than it helps, fucking government always wants to have the citizens to do whatever they want.
I finish putting on the final tip and get ready to fire. I look at Elixir and say. "Well, commander I'll see you tomorrow morning," I said going along with his opinion that we will make it.
"Of course!" He said with a thumbs up and ran back where he came from.
I looked back at the horde of Grimm and fired an arrow in the middle of the horde. The arrow connects on a Ursa's head and explodes spreading fire everywhere around it. The Grimm on fire in a pained frenzy slammed into other Grimm catching them on fire.
Holy shit this is napalm, guess Elixir was right, we do have a chance. I keep firing them in the parts of the horde of Grimm that weren't on fire.
Seeing a sea of fire, I smiled, I love the smell of napalm in the morning. Have the moment of pleasure of seeing my handy work.
Suddenly explosions goes off all around me and I see all around the wall multiple explosions, fuck. What happened.
Near me, another explosion went off knocking me off balance. I looked over and a smaller hole made by one of the explosions fifty feet to the left of me. The hole in the wall was big enough for an Ursa Major to fit through the stone wall. The Grimm blown back by the explosion came to their senses and ran for the opening of their lifetime.
Seeing the hole and the sea of Grimm on fire going for the hole. "You got to be kidding me!" I ran to it before they entered the town. I got under the hole and dropped down and summoned my threads.
I could make the tail, but it didn't kill them, it just moved the Grimm around, my weapons I could use those. Using my thread I unlocked my weapons, all of them except the bow and Revolver, with my Longsword in my right and Shortsword in my left I started fighting.
Fighting like this was as if using four different arms, it was weird for a little bit, but I got used to it and became faster and faster. I killed four Beowolves by stabbing them with all my weapons. An Ursa came at me charging, I made a small whip and caught one of its legs tripping it and when it was on the floor I put my Longsword through its throat killing it.
I kept fighting trying to keep them back, but slowly they started to push me back, inch by inch they savored to get inside. After 18 minutes of so much killing I was getting so tired I wasn't even paying much attention to the fighting I was just going with my instincts.
If a bystander was looking at me he would see me moving around as if I was drunk. Dammit, they'll get into the town at this rate, do I have anything that can help me.
The vial Yatsuhashi tossed me that'll help. Going through the hole and getting back into the town. Because of exhaustion from fighting, I summon half of the thread I normally can and make a fake wall of thread to buy me time to use the vial. The wall I made was a light red, it won't last long, but it wasn't meant to.
With my not properly thinking brain I unscrew the vial with red color inside. Thinking it was a stamina powder to help me fight longer, I popped open the vial and poured it all in my mouth.
I swallowed it when all of it was in. Once in my throat, I felt as if I just swallowed fire, I grabbed my throat in a desperate move to relieve the pain. It started to spread from my throat to the rest of my body. My body felt like it wasn't on fire, but was the fire. It was so hot, so much pain. The pain I felt in my life would never compare to this pain.
I fell to the floor holding My throat as if it would help. Like a wounded animal I tried to get away from the pain. I pushed it away and suddenly the wall of thread started to light on fire. Feeling a tiny bit of the pain relieved, I saw a way for it to go away.
I flooded the thread with the pain out of desperation. Without knowing I release the wall and let the Grimm come at me. As they did I made a shitty barley woven together spear to throw it at them.
The spear and all of my thread was on fire. The spear killed all in its way and if they didn't die, the fire from it would do it. To the Grimm that came close to the spear, they started to catch fire and if they were really close they would start to melt. The pain from the Dust inside of me started to be relieved slowly as I used it on my Semblance, slowly I was thinking more clearly.
Fixing the spear and creating three more I pushed the Grimm out of the town. Going through the hole that caught on fire, I let my spears go on a massacre killing every in my sight. Feeling I wasn't doing as much damage to the horde that I should be doing, I made three giant shurikens with sharp edges and threw them into the hundreds of Grimm. It was as if they were lawnmowers cutting grass, the Grimm fell so easily to the sharp edges and the amount of heat it was emitting.
It's been 12 minutes since my suicidal power up and the horde of blackness started to fade slowly leaving only 700 more in front of me. The sky on my side of the wall you could see nothing, just the blackness of Grimm particles.
The unbearable pain turned into more manageable once I started using all of my threads. Two Ursas majors came charging and seeing it, I made as fast as possible I sent two spears into them. The spear went at an incredible speed impaling and killed them.
The Dust inside my body slowly faded into nothingness and the fire on my threads extinguished. As the Dust ran out I started to feel extremely cold.
Oh shit my power up just ran out and I'm as tired as ever. Not giving up I got ready on pain filled legs to take on the rest, if I'm going to die, I'm not doing it like a bitch.
As I think this 8 guards with assault rifles started helping me out. Where in the hell have they been.
Feeling incredibly lightheaded and heading toward passing out quickly, I can't pass out yet, later just not yet, I need to keep fighting. The giant shurikens disappear. The exhaustion was really getting to me, my Semblance was becoming less and less effective as time went on. My movement from an outside perspective would be as if I was on my last legs. The Grimm started to push me back again. An Alpha Beowolf jumped over the rest and attacked me. It scraped my arm, but that was enough to shatter my already incredibly damaged Aura. It came at me again and with my final effort, I summoned all the thread I could and impaled it and the 40 Grimm behind it. The threads were small but effective.
I fell to my knees from exhaustion with my tired and pained body. I lifted my Longsword to keep fighting. The Grimm horde started to charge again and as they were about to hit me they were shredded to pieces, who did that, wait I know that sound.
Looking up to see who saved me and it was the one and only Coco, goddamn she really knows how to make a dramatic entrance.
As I was watching her handy work I was grabbed, freaking out I tried to roll, but halfway through I tired myself out. Looking at my assailant it was Yatsuhashi he was pulling me back into the town, thank God I thought that girl came back to booty rape me.
He put me on his shoulder and ran with me a couple meters away from the wall and laid me down next to a building. He ran into a building and came out with a table and ran to the hole and placed it as a wall, he kept doing this over and over until a furniture barricade was made.
After he was finished he gave me a wave and jumped back on the wall to keep fighting. Resting from the amount of action I've been in today I was about to pass out, but I couldn't. I was hit on the head pretty hard and I won't take a chance that I have a concussion. After 30 minutes of waiting, I got some Aura back, I'd say about 15 percent back so I get up.
Standing up exhausted still even after my break I walked back to the wall to see if I could help out. I feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and I look around.
The ground started quaking and then a giant horse with a Humanoid Grimm riding it just bursted through a house I was next to. Fuck what is that, I unsheathe my Longsword reading myself to fight.
I waited for it to make the first move and I waited and waited and it still did nothing. Getting closer to the Grimm then my instinct flared, but it wasn't directed to the Grimm, but the empty air, and I backed up.
I know this, the bitch is back goddammit, I hate these illusions there so annoying. Having enough of the illusions I sent one thread to it. The illusion of the Grimm disappeared and appeared the green haired bitch, but a part of her head was stained with deep red, she didn't look so good her clothes were ripped up and her body was full of scratches and a few gashes leaking blood.
I can't beat her even if she looks beaten, I just got an idea that could beat her. "Coco, Yatsuhashi help please, I'm going to die!"
"You're right, you are going to die." She said walking closer.
"Fuck you, I beat you once I can do it again,"I said fulling myself with bravado to keep fighting.
"You didn't beat me, you just dropped a fucking building on me!" She said angrily at me. Hey, a wins a win.
"Ehh same thing, now prepare to be destroyed by my ultimate maneuver!" I yell unexpectedly and prepare to do my move.
"Bring it!" She yelled wanting to kill me already. Jesus did I anger her that much damn. She raised her guard preparing for my attack.
"Escapeee!" I scream as I run away.
"What the fuck, get back here so I can kill you!" She said surprised, but she still wanted to kill me.
"Fuck that!" As I got to the wall an Aura jumped. I got back to all of the guards and CVY. She won't come attack me now I'm surrounded by powerful people.
"Dammit a mission failure, I'm going to blame this whole situation on Ebony it is her fault anyway." The emerald haired woman said as she walked away.
Dammit, there are too many of them and I can't use my Semblance on too many people, dammit even the D4 charges didn't let the Grimm in. I can't even kill the people in the emergency shelter because there's a strong Huntsmen In training protecting them, Guess this mission a failure, that fucking kid I'm going to kill him for interfering one day.
As I was running back to the Calypso I checked my Aura on my scroll it was at 29 percent, damn that kid he did some damage. Getting to my customized bullhead I looked around and their was no Ebony in sight, she was caught fuck. I could go get her back, but that's too risky, no I don't have to do that. She won't talk. She knows that will get her killed, she's seen Cinder's power. Entering the cockpit I sat down and started it up. I waited for it to warm up and when it was warm I flew off from this failure of a mission, Cinder is not going to like this.
Wooh I got away from her. CFY came to me running. "Andres what's happening!" Coco said with her minigun out to fight at a moment's notice.
"The shooter was back!" I said looking back to where I came from to check if she was still chasing me.
"She is, let's go get her!" Coco said wanting to chase her, but I have a feeling she's gone by now.
"I think she left, I heard her say mission failure as I was leaving." I said not wanting them to waste their time. More like I wanted to get some rest, I'm fucking tired.
"What was her mission?" Coco said
"Probably to destroy the town, so how's the wall doing?" I asked to see if I can do anything to help.
"The horde of Grimm is defeated now, only the stragglers are left, our work here is done." She said dropping down the wall and kept walking
"Don't they still need help?" I said to see if they need help as I caught up to them.
"They said to leave the stragglers to the non Aura guards and let the Aura warriors rest for tomorrow, don't worry there's a "Professional" Huntsmen with them. They'll call us if another wave comes." She answered my question.
"Cool now time for a well deserved sleep." I said stretching out my incredibly sore muscles as I walked with CFY.
"Yeah we do deserve that," Coco said with a smile on her face.
"Fox did you find all of the Apathy in the town?" I said remembering the real threat to the town.
"Yeah they're all dead and I double checked the town, all of them are killed for sure." He said proudly that he saved this town. Coco and Yatsuhashi both looked surprised to hear about the hidden Apathies, Fox quickly gave them the rundown.
"Good job, how about Ebony, where is she?" I asked, I really hope they didn't leave her on the street.
"She's captured. We had Velvet to watch her, why would the Mayor try to destroy the place she lives in?" Fox said, confused why she would do this and what about this would benefit her.
"I don't know, but she said she would have more if she did this," I said getting angry I hate people like her always wanting more even when it'll hurt people getting it.
"Bitch!" Fox said while gritting his teeth. Guess he hates the same type of people I do, at least we have something in common.
"Wait where's Velvet?" I asked I haven't seen her since I got them into the town, she's better not be slacken.
"She's at the Emergency Shelter," Coco said answering my question
"She's protecting the civilians, she is also where we'll rest," Yatsuhashi said looking a little happy that he'll get to rest. It has been a fucking long day.
"Can't wait to sleep this soreness off," Fox said, stretching his arms.
"Seeing Andres I really think he needs it," Coco said, making fun of my disheveled appearance.
"What are you talking about? I can still go all day!" I said practically dragging myself.
"Yeah and in two minutes it'll be tomorrow." She said laughing.
"Like I said all day and not a second more," I said feeling a jolly mood coming. I mean I just helped save a town from destruction. Why won't I be happy? If there's a bar around here I'm getting a drink. I like tequila so I hope this world has an equivalent to it.
After a couple of minutes we get to a big building made of metal with no windows, wow this shelter is way better than the one in Kakariko. Time to get my nap on. We knock and we hear the safe looking door open to our friend Velvet.
Feeling more tired than before, I said. "Velvet you look beautiful now where's the best beds?" I asked, a Hero should be rewarded.
"Sorry, you have to sleep on the floor." She said looking ashamed she had to say that. I really don't care where I sleep as long as I can get as much rest as possible. She pointed to a spot where there was nobody.
"Aww, sure as long as no one tries to kill me," I said joking, yes joking universe don't summon Adam please I still get nightmares about him. I lay down getting ready to sleep.
Coco walked next to me and said. "Hey tiger, you got room for me?" She said with a confident smile. Yay, I get a pillow.
"Sure, but know I'm a cuddler," I said not really caring if they thought that was weird. Yeah I've always loved cuddling, kissing and making out is fun and all, but cuddling takes the cake.
"All I hear is a good time also I'm a cuddler too." She said with a wink. I really hope she doesn't try any funny business while we're sleeping. Wait what about the other guys.
"Yatsuhashi, Fox, Velvet want in on the sleep pile," I asked, not really caring if they joined I was too tired to give a shit.
"I'm sorry I cannot." Is all that Yatsuhashi said to us before he lay down and fell asleep fast. I need to learn to do that.
"I have guard duty until the reinforcements arrive." Velvet said obviously trying not to be a part of it.
"Leave me alone already!" He said with a loud voice before walking away.
"Goodnight guys, Coco I hope you warm because I'm freezing," I said freezing. The effect on my body for using the Dust. I wrap the blanket around us.
"Goodnight Hero." She whispered into my ear earner her blush and with that, we fell asleep cuddling. She better not molest me.
Author's Note
I really like the idea of Dust and Aura and I never really got to see it fully realized in RWBY.
Are Dust and Aura gonna be a big plot point in this story? one of the biggest if you could believe.
Also if you noticed reading I Foreshadowed the Dust usage and another big one, one I really hope you like because I had a absolute blast writing(It'll be CH. 11)
Hope you like what I've been putting out.
