The Schnee Black Sheep
Chapter 22: Bride to be.
"I am Coal Schnee's fiancée."
"WHAT?" Everyone but Weiss yelled in complete shock. Blake was unable to control herself as an unknown horrible feeling arose in the bottom of her stomach, a feeling which prompted her to ask the beauty.
"You and he…" she began in a timid voice. "Are dating?" Orchid giggled once more as she looked out the window with a longing gaze.
"Well not yet." She sighed, placing a hand over her heart as she turned to the hidden Faunus. "But that is all about to change. Once he comes back home with me and we get married, things will be perfect!" Instantly heads turned towards Weiss, looking for an explanation of not only who exactly the girl was, but if that her twin was actually engaged to such a girl.
Sighing rather uncontrollably, Weiss introduced the new girl to the rest of her friends properly. "Everyone this is Orchid, and yes she was engaged to my brother. Orchid this is my partner Ruby."
"Hi."
"My teammates Blake and Yang."
"Sup." Yang chipped putting on a fake smile. Blake gave no response as she could only stare in Orchid's direction.
"My friends Pyrrha, Ren and Nora… And their team leader Jaune."
"Hello." Pyrrha announced giving a slow wave using her other hand to once again reattach her partners jaw as he started to splutter nonsense, she also made a mental note to no hold back the next time they trained together seeing as how her partner had seemed to have forgotten she existed for a brief second. Nora was too busy dragging Ren away from the beautiful girl as the quiet boy had become even more silent, unable to remove his eyes from the girl. Something Nora was not pleased about.
"And this is Sun and Neptune."
"Hey, how you doing?" Neptune asked in a husky tone as he smiled and cast the beauty a wink.
"Just can't help yourself, can you?" Sun sighed as he grabbed his friend by the collar and dragged him away. "Dude she's engaged and you can't even restrain yourself."
"I'm just being polite." Neptune argued as he continued to get pulled further away from the goddess. "I don't want her to think I'm rude."
"It is a pleasure to meet you all." Orchid said politely as the once more curtsied to the group, or what was left of it anyway. "I take it that you also know my Wrythe seeing as you know his sister."
"Um… Wrythe?" Blake asked raising an eyebrow and folding her arms across her chest showing an attitude towards Orchid. Said girl smiled back to Blake in earnest as she was unfazed by the obviousness of not being liked very much.
"Yes, his full name is Wrythe Coal Schnee," She informed. "Did he not tell you his real name?" She asked with a slight amount of sarcasm hidden under her tone. A tone which only angered the Faunus further.
"Yes, he did in fact tell me his real name." Blake smirked having one up on the new girl. "His real name is Coal Valiant."
"I'm sorry to inform you… Kate was it?" Orchid grinned. "But that is not his…"
"Actually Orchid." Weiss interrupted taking Blake's side. "That is his real name now. He changed it not too long ago after he was exiled from our family."
"WHAT?" Orchid shrieked. "Since when?"
"Since a couple of weeks ago actually." Blake smiled in victory as she couldn't help but continue. "I'm sorry to inform you… Whatever your name was, but the person who you thought was here apparently doesn't even exist anymore, so you might as well just go home." After her little victorious attitude and tone, Blake glanced around the rest of her friend who were just simply giving her a weird look. "What?" Yang just shook her head at her partner in utter disappointment.
"Seriously just go and screw him already." She deadpanned in a very Blake like manner.
"Yang there is nothing between us!" Blake yelled furiously at her partner for the millionth time today. Orchid glared at the Faunus.
"What do you mean, go and screw him already?" She asked in an evil tone. "You dare steal my Wry-Wry from me!" Yang couldn't contain herself as she burst out laughing at the name. the rest of the teens also struggled to keep their composure as before long everyone, Weiss included, joined Yang in a fit of laughter.
"What a stupid name!" Ruby managed to force out between laughs as she fell down to the floor clutching her stomach kicking her legs in the air. Yang stopped laughing to take a quick glance at her younger sister, seeing as though that little remark had been the first time she acknowledged his existence since he had died and come back. Jaune was also laughing just as hard as the scythe wielder as he was doubled over slamming a hand on the table repeatedly.
"I'm am so going to use that against him." Jaune announced to no one in particular as he got a new remark to use against his best friend.
"Wait a minute here!" Blake accused loudly. "Will someone just tell me what the hell is going on here!" It was Orchid who answered her in a rather accusing tone.
"I am here to take my Wrythe back home with me so that we can finally be married. His father has already made all the necessary arrangements for us to be married within the month and once we are happily wed, we are going to move to my family's estate within Mistral where we will give birth to a suitable heir to my family's company."
"Well fuck that noise!" Eyes instantly locked onto Weiss who covered her mouth in shock of her own words. "Damn it Coal, you're a bad influence." She whispered to herself. Yang pulled Blake to one side and engaged the Faunus in a discreet conversation of her own while Orchid made the rounds of introducing herself to each individual personally.
"So Blake, what are you going to do now?" Yang asked with a teasing grin. Blake simply rolled her eyes in return as she stated.
"Absolutely nothing. There isn't anything between me and Coal so why would I need to do anything?"
"Because you know for a fact that you really want to have his babies."
"YANG! SHUT! UP!" Blake whispered harshly through gritted teeth.
"Blake look me in the eyes and tell me you're not bothered by this at all." Blake turned to face Yang head on and looked right into the blond's lilac eyes.
"I, Blake Belladonna, do not care in the slightest that he, Coal Valiant, is engaged to that girl, whatever her name was."
"I never said anything about that." Yang smirked in victory. "I was referring to the fact about Coal needing to leave."
"Huh…"
"That's what she said right." Yang clarified for the Faunus. "That Coal will be getting married at the end of the month and then they will be moving away. Are you sure that you're okay with that?"
"I…" Blake started to say before cutting herself off. she took a few moments to think about her next words. Once more she looked Yang dead in the eyes and with the most emotionless face and tone she could muster, Blake answered. "I don't care what he does. It's not like we have anything between us." With that, Blake walked away and out the library, leaving a very excited blond standing by herself who was quickly joined by Weiss.
"Well, what did she say?" Weiss asked knowing full well what Yang would have been asking about.
"Her left ear twitches when she lies." Yang smirked. "And when she is frustrated, she storms out in a huff. You tell me what that means."
"Blake is pissed…" Weiss sighed.
"And who do you think she is pissed at?" Yang smirked knowingly.
"Coal…" Weiss sighed once more before Orchid bounced up to her.
"So, Weiss dear. When will my Wrythe be returning?" She asked in a giddy tone.
"I've already told you Orchid I don't know." Weiss repeated herself as she rubbed her eyes in frustration. She hated dealing with the overly happy girl but had gotten used to it over the years. Even before her twin's engagement to the beauty she had to run interference between to two at her brother's request. It was one of the only things that he had ever asked of her… Well he actually begged at first but Weiss was already planning on ways of separating the two herself, she was rather thankful when her twin was on board for actively avoiding Orchid by any means necessary. "Just go wait for him in his room or whatever."
It was a long tedious walk to Coal room. Orchid asked question after question about the boy's current mission as to which Weiss continuously had to bluff her way out of, how he was doing currently and as to whether or not he had talked about her at all. Needless to say, it did not go down well with the heiress when she had found out that no one had any idea of who she was or that neither of the twin's friends had any knowledge of her engagement to Coal. Weiss opened the door to her twin's room and showed the purple haired girl inside.
"Okay Orchid, here you are." Weiss said as she gestured around the room. "Coal's bedroom, otherwise known as team VOID's hangout."
"Oh, this is just splendid!" Orchid clapped excitedly. "It will be just like it is our first apartment!"
"Yeah…" Weiss agreed awkwardly. "Now just wait here okay, I'll be in the next room down with my team if you need anything. I think Coal keeps a decent stock of snacks around here somewhere if you get hungry… Though a good ninety percent of that is alcohol."
"That will be fine." Orchid waved off. "I will simply call room service if I require anything to eat."
"There is no room service here." Weiss deadpanned.
"WHAT!" Came a deafening scream from an overly pampered heiress. "You expect me to live like a savage!"
"Not exactly…" Weiss said. "I just expect you to wait until Coal returns from his mission, where ever he may be, who knows how long that could take. If you prefer, I could ask him to call you when he returns so that you don't have to live in such low standards." Weiss offered sarcastically. Orchid just sighed in defeat.
"Very well. I suppose I could start rearranging this place to suit our needs."
"What needs?" Weiss asked regretting doing so, she could have just left the conversation there but out of concern for her twin, she needed to know exactly what else the girl was here for.
"Well this place is hardly baby proof, is it?" Orchid stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Okay, I'm done." Weiss stated as she turned quickly on her heel and marched swiftly to her own room, slamming the door behind her and getting weird looks from the rest of her team. "I did not need that mental image…"
"What is it with you and this mental image thing?" Yang asked folding her arms behind her head.
"Imagine a much smaller and more hyperactive version of Coal." Weiss explained getting a shrug from the blond in return.
"I don't really see much of a problem there."
"Yang how many explosions does he cause on a regular basis now?" Yang took a moment to think about what the Schnee was implying before her eyes widened in terror. Weiss needed no more prompting to know that Yang had just clicked on to the same worrying thought. "Exactly, a mini Coal would literally be a house on fire… Or worse, well actually most indefinitely worse." Yang hummed in agreement before casting a wink to the Faunus who sat on her bed in complete silence reading, though she had remained on the same page for far too long to maintain cover.
"Blake, thoughts?" Yang questioned her partner.
"On what?" Blake asked pretending she heard nothing of what had just been mentioned. Yang smirked knowingly at her partner as she continued to play her favourite game of teasing the Faunus until she snaps.
"Don't pretend like you didn't hear anything Blake." Yang accused grinning. "Even when you're not paying attention those ears hear everything!"
"HA! Like fuck they do!" Came a rather childish laughing voice from underneath Blake's bed.
"COAL WHY ARE YOU UNDER MY BED!" Blake screamed as she reached under her bed and pulled out the boy by the ear.
"Ow, ow. I thought it was Weiss' bed, I needed a place to hide and it seemed like a good idea at the time."
"So, you just decide by yourself that it would be okay to break into our room and hide under Blake's bed?" Yang asked folding her arms. Normally she would make a comment on something so easy, but right this second she was far more concerned with how he actually entered their locked room. "How did you even get in here?"
"Lock picking is a relatively easy skill to pick up and I thought it would being a new meaning to the whole monster under the bed thing... Ow, Blake can you please let go?"
"Not until you explain what is going on." She growled at him. Coal continued to yelp as Blake kept pulling in his ear.
"What is it with you females and inflicting pain?" He cried.
"And just what is that supposed to mean?" Blake asked irritably as she released the soldier from her grasp and placed both hands on her hips glaring at the boy.
"Well Weiss loves slapping me upside the head, granted sometimes I do actually deserve it, Yang literally is a battering ram with crappy jokes, and you continuously find ways of pinning me down and slapping me. Heck, Ruby is the only one who has actually killed me before."
…
"What too soon?" Coal asked as the room went silent.
"Is there a right time to actually joke about that?" Yang asked glaring at the boy as Ruby did her best to make like a turtle and retreat back into her cloak. Coal shrugged it off quickly.
"Shit happens, just got to live with our choices." He stated aiming his words directly at Ruby. Blake rose swiftly to her feet and grabbed him by the arm and pulled them out into the hallway.
"We need to talk." She demanded as she slammed the door separating them from the rest of her team. As soon as the two were alone, she rounded on the boy with a very angry look on her face. Something that Coal instantly picked up on as the fire in her amber eyes made him concerned about his current standing with the Faunus… Not that there was much behind their friendship of course. "What the hell was that?" Blake asked furiously prodding his chest daring him to lie to her.
"Come on Blake." Coal chuckled as he stuck his hands up in surrender. "It was just a little joke."
"A bad one… Can't you see that she is actually really ashamed about that?"
"Well duh!"
"Then why are you being such an asshole about it!"
"How else am I supposed to be?" Coal asked rather sternly showing his battle-hardened soldier persona. "Killing is exactly what it is, taking the life of another. If she wants to feel sorry for herself by letting the fact that I was dead for a minute due to an accident that was basically my fault to begin with bring her down, then I'm just gonna go with it and let her do what she needs to do to feel better."
"Exactly!" Blake yelled. "You know what it's like to kill so you should be able to help her through that feeling. Maybe if you just took a softer approach about it then maybe you wouldn't be such an asshole!"
"I'm trying to help her here."
"By reminding her of the one thing she is ashamed of most?"
"What else am I supposed to do Blake? She's the one who is avoiding me, I can't help her if she is constantly trying to tell herself that she killed me, despite the obviousness that I'm right here! She is far too young and innocent for this life if she breaks down over a little accident, which by the way I don't really care about."
"So according to you she shouldn't be here!" Blake accused loudly showing her frustration by getting right up in his face.
"That's not what I'm saying Blake and you know it." Coal argued back glaring back at her. "She has potential, great potential and will probably go on to do something great but right now, she has absolutely no idea about what the world really is."
"AND YOU DO!" Blake yelled furiously.
"We both do." Coal stated as he pushed passed the Faunus and headed for his room in quiet anger. He stopped in front of the door and turned to face the Faunus once more with a sorrowful expression. "We don't always have the luxury of niceties Blake… I know it seems harsh and horrible, but look at where we are. Knowing what you know now, can you honestly say that you are stronger or weaker because of your experiences and trials? Because of him?"
"Why are you bringing him up?" Blake growled rather harshly. Coal softened his expression as he lowered his own tone.
"Because he is what you're really running from isn't it?"
"You don't know me."
"No Blake, I think I do." Coal said as he walked back over to the Faunus and got back up in her face. "You pretend not to care about anything when you really care more than anyone else, you try and hide in your books but you're secretly planning something which you hide from the rest of us and more than anything else, you don't let anyone in!" Coal stated before realising that he had not just described the Faunus, but also himself.
"I let you in!" Blake screeched prodding him in the chest rather forcefully. "You of all people and why did I even bother when you can't even tell me the truth!"
"What!" Coal argued throwing his hands in the air in frustration thinking that the Faunus had somehow caught onto the time bomb on his back. "When did I ever lie to you?"
"You told me you've never dated!"
"Technically I wasn't lying." Coal chuckled thinking he had dodged a bullet, that was the least thing he had expected the Faunus to question him about.
"YOU'RE ENGAGED!" She screeched once more prodding him in the chest harder. "Explain that!"
"It's all arranged Blake. It was announced on my fifteenth birthday and I've been avoiding the actual marriage since then. I got forced into a fight with the girl that night and I lost… I had no idea that her father and mine had already arranged for us to be married before the fight even took place but a second after I, literally, got my ass whipped they made the announcement officially. Meaning that since that point on, Coal Schnee was engaged to that bitch. I've never been on a real date with anyone."
"And she means nothing to you?"
"Well she obviously means something seeing as how I've made forty-seven and a half different escape plans for when she shows up." Coal shrugged. "Not that anything I feel towards her is actually positive."
"Forty-seven and a half?" Blake asked folding her arms disbelievingly before shaking her head and getting back on track. "Doesn't matter… So, you don't care about her at all?"
"Why are you so bothered by this?"
"Coal!"
"Fine, fine… I harbour no feelings towards that damn baby crazy, psycho, mirror obsessed, dominatrix." Coal informed as he turned away and placed his hand on his door handle. "Seriously Blake, what got you so worked up?" Blake averted her gaze from the boy as she pondered exactly why she was acting the way she was. Why did the appearance of such a beautiful girl, one who outright caused latterly every male within range to start drooling uncontrollably, bother her so much? She had been treated as a minority her whole life so being compared to her wasn't what was bothering the Faunus, she was actually rather proud of her own appearance though she didn't treat it as her top priority. Surely it wasn't the fact that the girl had a history with Coal… No that definitely wasn't the case, there was nothing between the human and the Faunus, right? They were completely different species so there couldn't be anything between them anyway.
"WRY-WRY!"
Coal immediately slammed the door and tried to run away in a full-on sprint away from his third biggest fear, his fiancée. Orchid kicked his door down and reached under the skirt of her summer dress and pulled out a long, leather whip that was attached to her thigh and took aim towards Coal, snagging his ankles and tripping him up before he could even make it a few feet.
"Wry-Wry!" She announced again rather excitedly. "It's been so long since we have seen one another." She cheered happily as she started pulling on the whip bringing the tangled-up boy closer inch by inch.
"Not long enough…" Coal huffed as he flicked his wrist and crafted a sword which he pierced into the ground in front of him to keep him in place. Blake could only watch in utter amazement at how the known executioner was acting. Never had she thought that someone could look so desperate to escape.
"This is just spectacular!" Orchid continued to cheer as she started to pull even harder on the whip. "Now that you're here we can finally return home and be married! Once that little ceremony is out the way we can go on our honeymoon and consummate our love for one another!"
"FUCK ME!" Coal yelled in absolute terror, he was not looking forward to the future that his former fiancée had in store for him.
"Exactly!" Orchid smiled as she managed to pull the downed boy away from the ice estoc due to his sudden panic. "How else am I going to bear you children?"
"Damn it Orchid we aren't engaged anymore! Give up on this baby thing already!" Coal protested as he grabbed hold of the door frame in an attempt to stay far away from the girl as possible. "Blake, I could use a hand here!" He begged as the Faunus remained silent just watching the scene take place emotionlessly. After a few moments, she turned her nose up and away from the boy and swiftly walked back into her room slamming the door behind her as if to state her opinions on the matter. 'Deal with it on your own.' Coal could only curse the Faunus every name under the sun for the betrayal as he was pulled into his room by force, his door closing and locking as if to emphasise just how trapped he was. There was no escape from a bride to be, when she wanted something, Orchid would be damn sure that she got it. Whatever it took.
Blake slammed the door upon re-entering her room, leaving the human to fend for himself and escape from his current situation. She couldn't understand the feeling of betrayal that welled within her but she did know the source of it. For a reason, she wouldn't explain she was angry at Coal, angry at how he was still keeping things from her despite her own complete honesty with him. Her frustration was something her teammates noticed. Specifically, Weiss and Yang.
"You seem… Irritated." Weiss accused as kindly as she could in order to not send the Faunus past her limits.
"Do you want know a good way to relive stress?" Yang asked smirking at the Faunus. Weiss could only face palm at knowing exactly what Yang was referring to… Blake however, blew a fuse...
"YANG FOR THE LAST FREAKING TIME!"
"Wow Blake." Yang motioned to clarify having not expected such a massive outburst from her partner. "I was going to say a hot bath and scented candles but now I'm thinking we may need something better…" Weiss also moved in to assist the blond before she got her head ripped off.
"What's with you Blake?" Weiss asked as calmly as she could. "Lately you've been way moodier, even more so than your normal Blakey self."
"That's a given…" Yang interjected adding in her own remarks.
"Which I get… Moody is your thing." Weiss said using air quotes. "But you're even taking it out on Coal now, which is definitely not normal."
"Yeah." Yang interjected again. "Normally you two are all over each other."
"Yang quiet." Weiss ushered before the Faunus snapped again.
"Did you two have another argument or something?" Yang continued. Blake huffed in annoyance. Yes, they just had an argument and no, it wasn't the first one they had either. Regardless of how much they argued or fought they would always be able to laugh it off in the end, but now it just seemed as though they were stuck in a loop. They would laugh and casually flirt together, argue and fight before ultimately, they made up over a quick fishing and reading session at the pier and go back to being buddies again. needless to say, Blake was getting tired of that routine. She started to wonder if she was the one stuck in the friend zone. Regardless of how she felt towards the human, she would never voice it towards her perverted partner or the boy's own sister… She did not need any more teasing for that matter.
"This has nothing to do with him." Blake half lied.
"Then tell us what's wrong Blake." Weiss prompted. "You did promise after all." Huffing in defeat, Blake began to tell them the only thing she could tell them to ensure them that she wasn't conflicted about her feeling towards the human.
"I just don't understand how everyone can be so calm."
"Are you still thinking about Torchwick?" Ruby asked coming back out of her cloak, hoping to enter a conversation that didn't contain any references towards Coal, fearing that she would be haunted by the image of him lying dead in the street by her own hand once more.
"Torchwick, the White Fang… All of it." Blake stated, thankful for her team leaders timing and giving her something to reference. "Something big is happening and no one is doing anything about it."
"Ozpin told us not to worry." Yang interrupted. "Between the police and the huntsmen, I'm sure they could handle it."
"Well I'm not." Blake said getting furious, she didn't realise just how much of what she was saying was making sense. Blake figured that all this doubt must have been overshadowed by spending the majority of her free time with a certain human. "They don't know the White Fang like I do!" The rest of her teammates looked between each other before Weiss grew an evil smirk.
"Okay, between blowing up night clubs, stopping thieves and fighting for freedom, I'm sure the three of think your all ready to go out and apprehend these ne'er-do-wells."
"Err... Who?" ruby asked befuddled by the words.
"But let me once again be the voice of reason…" Weiss continued not taking the time to explain. "We're students… We aren't ready to handle this sort of situation."
"Well yeah but…"
"We're. Not. Ready." Weiss clarified a tad more forcefully, Blake was ready to interject but stopped herself when the Schnee girl grinned menacingly, a smile that Blake was starting to hate seeing. "But someone is…"
"You mean Coal, don't you?" Yang asked folding her arms behind her head as Ruby once more became a turtle.
"Oh no!" Blake interjected taking the conversation back from Weiss. "He is not getting involved with this!"
"And why not?" Weiss argued. "He has been chasing after the White Fang for years with the military, destroyed dozens of hideouts, and singlehandedly is probably stronger than all of us combined… No offence."
"Some taken." Yang shrugged slightly irritated, she was still itching to find out exactly how well she faired against him.
"He still isn't getting involved." Blake assured crossing her arms and making a point that she wasn't backing down from her statement.
"Ugh fine." Weiss huffed. Upon the Schnee's agreement to the terms, Ruby perked up out of her cloak.
"Okay… All in favour of becoming the youngest huntresses to singlehandedly bring down a corrupt organisation conspiring against the kingdom of Vale, say aye."
"Yes!" Yang cheered pumping a fist before pointing to Blake. "You should be that feisty with him!" Blake just gave a deadpan stare back at her partner and shook her head in utter disbelief. Why did she end up with such a perverted partner?
"I suppose it could be fun." Weiss shrugged trying to not pay too much attention to Yang and her comments. She regretted agreeing to the blond's proposal of working together.
"None of you said aye…" Ruby pouted.
"Alright then." Blake smiled happily knowing that her team was behind her all the way. "We're in this together."
"Let's hatch a plan!" Ruby cheered smirking like a child before her eyes widened in realisation. "I my board game in the library…"
"We're doomed…" Weiss facepalmed as Ruby disappeared in a burst of rose petals out the door. "Where is Coal anyway? I figured he would have followed you back in."
"He's preoccupied." Blake shrugged as she flopped down on her bed and picked up a book.
"Please tell me Orchid didn't get him…"
Fear does many strange things to people… Some run away screaming, others lash out in a mindset of kill or be killed, and others basically piss themselves. Right now, Coal was unable to do any of those things. Being tied down to a chair wrapped up in his fiancée's whip with his weapons removed and no means of escape while being straddled by said fiancée who was also grinding her hips against his leaving him with no means of escape… Let's just say that his inner demons were very conflicted at this point.
"So…" Orchid slurred quietly into his ear as she gently bit down onto his earlobe. Needless to say, the purple haired girl had been longing for this reunion. "We are finally alone."
"Yep." Coal stated emotionlessly as he kept his gaze facing straight passed the girl and focused on a particular scratch along the wall that had been made when he first moved into the room.
"I missed you Wry-Wry." Orchid whispered as she wrapped her arms around the bound boy and buried her head into his neck. "So, so much."
"Yep."
"Did you miss me?" Orchid asked with hopeful eyes as she waited for the boy to answer.
"Nope."
"You don't need to keep lying to yourself. We both know you really can't resist me." She teased as she climbed off the boy, much to his relief, and strode over to the bathroom. "Just give me a sec to get changed okay…" She giggled closing the door and locking herself away from her fiancé to get changed in privacy, not that she was intending on keeping much privacy between them for much longer…
"Fuck this!" Coal growled to himself as he started to struggled against his bindings, forcing the chair to seesaw from side to side as he fought against the restraints to no avail. "Cobalt get us out of here!"
She took my gun! What the fuck can I do?
"SHIT… Wrythe, I know we don't exactly get along and that it's been a few years since I've asked for a favour, but seriously isn't there anything you can do?" Coal pleaded to the deepest part of his fractured soul, thankfully a slow and well-spoken voice from inside his soul spoke up.
Forgive me master Coal. But a gentleman cannot say no to a lady.
Bullshit! You just want to get laid!
That is not entirely incorrect, there is a first time for everything… Even if I wanted to free us from this, terrifying situation, I would require our gauntlet to proceed. I cannot forge any estocs without it.
"This is getting out of hand…" Coal sighed as he continued to struggle against the bindings. This wasn't the first time that he had been trapped in the girls whip, but this time was different, he could not get free of the thing. Despite all his strength he just could not break free of the weapon. "Fuck, what is this thing made out off?"
I could break it
"Crimson if you break these bindings you can have all the exercise you want inside the emerald forest for the whole night." Coal offered, hoping that his animal wasn't lying just so that he could get some exercise.
Are we really going to give control over to that monstrosity?
Fuck yeah!
"Sorry Wrythe but I'm with Cobalt on this one." Coal sighed seeing no alternative.
A gentleman should never leave a lady unaccompanied.
A gentleman would make a like a man and leg it! Tail between his legs and all! You must remember how we ended up engaged to begin with?
Listen here you rapscallion. That fair lady has devoted her life to us, are we really going to be completely and utterly disrespectful and turn her down without even a polite 'no'?
"So, your saying that you'd rather succumb to that dominatrix and her mirrors, when this is clearly going to be the single biggest 'NOPE' moment of our lives?" Coal asked in doubt.
…
Your logic is sound, we should make a hasty and tactical retreat. We should preserve the last of our innocence for the right time after all.
"Ugh, you are by far the worst part of me..." Coal smirked closing his eyes. Though he did agree with the gentleman, he didn't really plan on losing his remaining innocence anytime soon. He had more pressing matters to focus on currently seeing as how by releasing the animal, he would need to activate his semblance… and the dust that plagued him. "Crimson, are you fully awake yet?" The boy asked before his eyes shot open to reveal e a set of glowing red ones. He started snarling and growling to himself.
"Awake and hungry."
(less than two minutes later.)
"Are you ready for your punish… Damn it." Orchid huffed as she stepped out of the bathroom having gotten changed into a rather skimpy version of the Beacon uniform and carrying another whip and a tube of whipped cream. She had expected to find her fiancé waiting right where she left him, but instead she walked into an empty room with her original whip lying on the ground, still fully intact, but the chair that she had restrained Coal to was completely smashed and its pieces scattered around the room. It didn't take her long to also notice that the window was wide open and letting in a rather chilling breeze. It was plainly obvious that her fiancé had once again, slipped through her fingers.
"We really need to work on that confidence issue of yours Wry-Wry…" She huffed as she threw the items to one side and shut the window to keep what was left of the heat in. She could not fathom why her fiancé was so afraid of her, she was only human like him and they were to be married soon. She had been told that the boy's father would be calling him to let him know that she was coming to take him away with her and that should have been that.
She huffed once more as she crashed down onto the boy's bed and wrapped herself in the sheets, taking in his scent. "What a waste… the first time we see each other in months, the first time we actually can be alone and he runs away. Are you really that ashamed of your body that you won't even take your wife-to-be's first time?" She questioned the empty room hoping to find some sort of answer. "And I'm ovulating as well…" She huffed again as she rolled over and forced herself to calm down otherwise she would lose more sleep over her fiancé.
