The Schnee Black Sheep
A/N
Good morrow all!
Well here it is, the long awaited first date chapter. I had a lot of fun writing this chapter and I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it.
Yeah i know im late once more so im sorry but things are still settling down and slowly becoming the norm. Dont worry, i will be updating this story when i can.
Lastly, while going over my draft for this arc of the story i started to wonder if i should do a prequel story about Coal's military days. Would any of you like that sort of thing or should i just keep to small flashbacks and minor hints?
You will be meeting some of his squad soon enough so dont think they are just mindless characters. Everyone has their purpose.
Chapter 28: First date
"Where is it, where is it?" Coal aggravatedly mumbled to himself as he searched high and low across his room. Dragging out another draw that he had already searched through countless times that morning, he couldn't help but think about what he had gotten himself into. Out of everything that he had been through, why now of all things was he nervous. Curse his sister.
"Coal did you find it?" Weiss asked from the other side of his room also searching through another draw. Coal huffed at his sister's frantic tone.
"Not yet, are you sure you left it in here?" Coal asked back.
"I'm positive."
"Well then where is it?" Coal huffed. "You know I'm really starting to get tired of you keeping your stuff in my room."
"Where else am I going to keep it?"
"I don't know, maybe if you ditched some of the thousand dresses you keep then maybe you'd have space for it!"
"BLASPHEMY!" Weiss screamed insulted.
"Well then where the heck did you leave it this…"
*BOOM*
"…Time. Daughter of a bastard Weiss… That came from JNPR's room." Coal groaned rubbing his eyes. He got up to check on the source of the blast only to find a very burnt and charred Jaune slumped on the corridor floor. "Well sorry about that J." Coal apologised stifling a laugh at his best friend's condition.
"What. Happened." Jaune chocked out in a daze.
"Weiss, for some reason I'm still working out, left her death ray in your room." Coal answered with an innocent shrug. Jaune looked up at his best friend with a dumbfounded expression.
"Why does your sister have a death ray?" Jaune asked standing up and dusting himself off. "And why does Pyrrha have it?"
"Do you NOT have a death ray?" Coal asked back looking rather shocked prompting Jaune to worry about the sanity of his best friend.
"Sorry Jaune." Weiss apologised again bounding up beside her twin with a satisfied grin. "I forgot I leant it to Pyrrha for the week… Though I did turn down the settings a fair bit."
"Good thing too." Coal said nodding towards his sister. "I got the designs from Ironwood and tweaked them slightly, some of the prototypes tended to level buildings on the lowest settings." Jaune couldn't take anymore and decided to head back into his room for a shower leaving the twins in the hallway. "Think he did something stupid again?" Coal asked Weiss quietly.
"Probably." Weiss shrugged. "I don't know what Pyrrha sees in him."
"That ass probably." Coal shrugged also. Weiss raised an eyebrow at her twin's statement. "What? I can appreciate good ass no matter where it's from."
"And why are you appreciating Jaune's ass?" A voice asked from down the hall. The twins looked to the source of the voice who just happened to be Blake.
"Well Jaune does have a good ass." Coal chucked as if it were obvious. "Not that its better than yours or anything…"
Blake raised an eyebrow as Weiss facepalmed.
"Not that I've been looking or anything…"
Blakes eyebrows went even higher, not believing a word of what they boys said.
"Okay so maybe I took a quick peek once or thrice…"
Weiss facepalmed harder.
"Which answer gets me in the least amount of trouble?" Coal asked sweating bullets. Though he did find a way to change the subject… Kind of. "Oh, Blake while you're here. Yes or no, does Jaune have the best arse out of our class?" Coal asked seriously.
"Yeah, I thought that went without saying." Blake shrugged going along with the human while Weiss just turned up her nose in disgust.
"I really don't see what's so great about it." Weiss scoffed.
"So you do sneak a peek at his ass!" Coal laughed getting a rather infuriated slap across the back of his head from his now crimson faced twin.
"Are we still on for tomorrow?" Blake asked changing the subject yet again. Coal smiled back at her, feeling his cheeks warm slightly at the Faunus' close proximity.
"Err… Y-Yeah we are." Coal stuttered pulling at the collar of his shirt. When did it get so warm? Weiss felt a little out of place but couldn't bring herself to leave. She enjoyed her twins discomfort far too much. Blakes grin widened, it was barely noticeable but Coal was already used to Blake and her very limited emotional displays. He had worked with worse after all.
"Good. Because you already stood me up once." Blake teased.
"That was out of my control and you know it." Coal smiled back jokingly. He loved seeing her smile.
"I know." Blake said rolling her eyes. "A tranquiliser to my but kinda implies it. Who the hell even thinks to do something like that?"
"You get used to it." Coal shrugged getting a raised eyebrow from both girls. "Honestly you do… Myth and I don't really get along much so just be thankful that it wasn't a bullet this time."
"Should we ask?" Weiss questioned slightly concerned whether or not her twin was joking or not. Sometimes it was really hard to tell.
"Sorry, classified." Coal said to his twin, folding his arms and looking back towards the Faunus. "I'll knock on your door about an hour after class finishes okay."
"Sure." Blake hummed closing reaching up and speaking softly in his ear. "Don't even think about keeping me waiting again."
"Or else what?" Coal asked back in a low soft voice of his own.
"Hmm… Use your imagination."
"okay I've seen enough." Weiss interrupted walking away from the scene that emitted a vast amount of sexual tension. Not that Coal or Blake would admit to it though. Blake for one read too much smut and had very little privet time while Coal had repressed a lot of his own desires due to prolonged exposure to Orchid.
Coal and Blake separated when the door to Weiss' room slammed closed, muffling the cries of something about a mental image. Both teens broke out in fits of laughter.
"So easy." Coal said through his giggles.
"Far too easy." Blake agreed still laughing herself. "But seriously, if your late by even a second I will hurt you."
"Well I best not be late then." He smiled as Blake turned away and walked off, swaying her hips for added effect. Coal couldn't resist the temptation to let his own eyesight wander downward…
"Eyes up fluffles." Blake said without the need to turn around as she deliberately enticed the situation just to catch him off guard.
"I wasn't staring!" Coal defended, which was technically true as he did blink regularly while he was observing the view.
"Shit I'm going to be late." Coal yelled as he rifled through his wardrobe looking for the nice shirts Weiss had forced him to buy for this exact reason. Turns out, having some nicer clothes was beneficial. "Blake's gonna kill me!" He cried pulling out a dark navy shirt and throwing it over his head. He just had to take a nap after class and oversleep. He had less than 5 minutes until Blakes deadline and he was going to make sure that he made it.
Over next door, Blake was having problems of her own… or more specifically a collective of problems caused by a singularity. Yang.
"So, where you two going?" Yang asked for the third time. She had been desperate for some details and had been bugging her partner all day for anything and everything she could get. Not that Blake had said much.
"I told you already." Blake sighed taking another look in the mirror to make sure her appearance was satisfactory. "He's taking me to dinner to some place in the city, nothing to fancy, nothing too plain. That's all I know." Weiss pipped up from the desk where she was currently doing her homework.
"That sounds like him, he was never one for those high class, five star places." She shrugged taking a short break from her studying.
"That's good." Blake said somewhat happy that she wasn't going to something over classy. She wasn't one for the high-class life though she wouldn't turn down the opportunity to dine at such a place every once in a while. Though she would have to improve her wardrobe selection if they did ever have a second date and decide on one of those places.
"I don't get it though." Yang said folding her arms behind her head looking towards Weiss. "Don't you both come from like the richest of the rich or something?"
"Yeah but that doesn't mean we have to like it." Weiss stated. "I rather enjoy it myself."
"Figured."
"But Coal never did… The amount of money Father spent on trying to improve his etiquette to no avail could have powered a city for a whole year." Weiss summarised ignoring the intrusion of Yang. Blake was ready to prod the girl for more information about her twin but was unable to ask anything further as there was a quiet knock at the door.
Blake got up to open the door, at an alarmingly quick pace. Was she really that excited for tonight? This was just one date after all, all to see if there really was anything between them. She was still slightly in denial. Opening the door, Blake came face to face with a boy… But not Coal, Jaune was the one who had knocked.
"WEISSSSSSS!" Jaune sang as he strummed a guitar. Weiss immediately jumped from her seat and slammed the door in his face, hard.
"What?" She asked her teammates who were staring at her, all rather sorry for the poor knight and his now possibly broken self-confidence. Another soft knock sounded on the door only infuriating Weiss further. She grabbed the handle and swung the door open and immediately swung her leg forward catching the person right between the legs.
"Meep." Coal winced crashing to the ground and groaning in pain clutching his groin. Weiss immediately dropped to her knees and repeatedly apologised to her twin for such impulsive actions. While Coal recovered Yang took the time to quietly grieve for Blake.
"And there goes the possibility of children." Yang said half seriously and half giggling. Blake only rolled her eyes while she waited for Coal to get back up. the kick wasn't that hard after all, she herself had kicked harder with no serious problems.
After a few minutes, Coal was back on his feet still clutching his groin he glared at his twin and in a slightly higher pitch voice throttled his twin. "What the actual fuck Weiss! First you break Jaune's nose and now my balls. Why don't you just kill me and be done with it!"
"Already done that Frosty." Weiss joked getting an impartial groan from her twin. Weiss then turned to Blake and gave an apologetic smile. "Sorry about that, he's all yours. Just make sure he's back by eleven." Coal tried to protest that he 'could do what the fuck he wanted and that nothing controlled him' but was quickly put down by Blake who agreed to his twin's deadline and dragged him away by his arm. Somehow, he felt slightly less in control of the whole situation.
"So, what is the plan then?" Blake asked as they walked through the corridors of beacon. Blake didn't have a clue as to where Coal was leading her but she had faith that Coal knew what he was doing. He had even taken the time to done some nicer clothes, obviously ones his twin had picked out for him as Blake already knew of his lack of fashion sense. Coal was now dressed in a formal black dress shirt and a pair of dark blue jeans and black trainers. Blake could see signs that he had even tried to smarten his messy white hair to no avail… all in all she thought he was rather handsome even with the messy hair. "Where are you taking me?"
"There's this place I know on the outskirts of Vale, opposite side of the city from where we are now." Coal said smiling and looking over to his date for the evening. Blake had also changed clothes into something more appropriate. Now wearing a tight purple top beneath a cropped white leather jacket accompanied by a pair of black skin-tight jeans and heeled boots, Coal took a moment to take in the Faunus' appearance. Though he would be the first to admit that Blake was a rather beautiful girl, he admired how the clothes she wore helped emphasise her curves without the need to show too much skin. It was almost teasing.
Almost.
"You don't expect me to walk that whole way, do you?" Blake asked raising an eyebrow. Honestly did Coal have any idea who long that would take? Vale was a big city after all.
"Relax I never expected you to walk unless you wanted to." Coal said grinning over to the Faunus and leading them down another corridor. "I'm driving."
"In what car?" Blake asked him raising a second eyebrow. She had completely forgotten that he had mentioned that he could drive. "And do you even have a licence?"
"A very good fake." Coal laughed getting a disapproving look from his date. "That was a joke Kitten, I have a real licence."
"It wasn't a very good one." Blake deadpanned. "So, we are taking a car?"
"Who said anything about a car?" Coal smirked as he led Blake into a storage garage at the very corner of the school. "We are taking my bike." He stated walking through the assortment of vehicles and up to a jet-black motorcycle that Blake had no clue as to its make or model. Luckily for them, the person in charge of monitoring the vehicles walked up to them both.
"One Ducati Diavel… Damn kid how the hell did you get your hands on one of these?" The man asked eyeing the 1200cc monster. Coal thanked the man and took the keys without answering his question. The bike was actually a gift from his squad for his 16th birthday and having realised a love for the freedom of the open road, Coal loved every bit of power the bike had. Coal swung a leg over the body of the motorbike and held out a helmet for Blake. "I promise this won't hurt your ears." He said with a soft grin. "I had it made especially for them."
"You actually went that far?" Blake questioned disbelievingly looking over the helmet which had slots melded into the body for the comfort of her ears without damaging its effectiveness. "That couldn't have been cheap."
"Don't worry about it. It actually gave me a reason to spend all that money I saved away." Coal said with a simple shrug. "I'm not really one for spending abrupt amounts of money on menial things like Weiss, having a good reason to use it is a pleasant change."
"Still though…"
"Put it this way." Coal said placing his own helmet over his head. "None of our friends will be able to tail us the entire time we are out."
Blake couldn't find any problem with that logic. Slipping the helmet over her head she mounted the bike behind Coal and placed her hands on either side of his waist. "You aren't going to drive like an idiot right?" She asked just as Coal kicked the bike alive and revved the engine.
"What was that? I can't here you over the sound of the bike's awesomeness." Coal laughed before pulling the bike out the garage and into the courtyard. Passing the rest of their friend who seemed to be trying to hide around the many columns and benches in a bad attempt to follow the two speeding off. "Told you so."
"Okay fine you were right this one time!" Blake yelled over the roar of the bike. "Now SLOW DOWN!"
"Blake I'm doing the speed limit." Coal rolled his eyes and turned off the main road onto a road that followed the coast line. Downshifting and pulling back on the throttle to accelerating to adjust to the new and higher speed limit.
"SLOW DOWN!" Blake screamed burring her face into Coal's back as the bike tilted almost parallel with the ground rounding corner after corner at speeds that were far lower than Coal's usual comfortable pace. Blake still wasn't very fond of being on two wheels regardless of the speed. She wasn't scared of the bike or the speed, she just didn't like the idea of them having seen many fatalities that came from the machines and fast drivers.
When the road straightened out enough for Blake to not get dizzy from the constant side to side shifting of the bike she finally looked up to see Coal not looking at the road ahead of him, but instead taking a quick look towards the open ocean to view the coming sun set. Though it was still early evening, Blake knew that this was one of the best spots to view said sunset. She uncontrollably smirked at realising what Coal was up to and thought that the idea was rather sweet.
Blakes view was abruptly cut short as Coal turned off the road and onto a dirt track leading down towards the cliffs. Approaching the cliff face Blake started to make out the ruins of an old civilisation. But on closer inspection, Blake realised that within the historical ruins was a modernised village of its own. Hidden from the prying eyes of the world around it.
They must have been on the road for quite some time as Blakes legs felt numb when they finally pulled up in front of a small restaurant that seemed rather too busy for its size and location. Getting off the bike and handing her helmet to Coal, Blake looked around the area to see that the place where Coal had taken them too was rather small, almost like a small village on its own embedded into the side of the cliff, filled with small shops and far too much greenery from the trees growing from the side of the cliff hiding it further. The peaceful air and tranquillity of the place made it seem as though it should be a lot further from the city than they actually were.
"Where are we?" Blake ask admiring the peaceful atmosphere the area gave off.
"Still technically in Vale just on the very edge of its boundaries." Coal said dismounting the bike and taking of his own helmet. "Though this place may as well be a village in its own right."
"It's rather quaint." Blake mussed. "It kind of reminds me of home."
"Home? So you do have one of those." Coal laughed at his own joke. "All this time trying to get something out of you and finally we get somewhere."
"I figured you would have already known where I come from seeing as how you know so much about my past already." Blake said teased jokingly.
"I feel like I deserved that." Coal sighed. "Besides, you proved ages ago that you're not the person that I was lead to believe."
"I still can't get over the fact that we are actually going through with this…" Blake smiled rolling her eyes and linking her hand into Coal's as they started walking. "I'm going on a date with a human of all people."
"Problem with that?"
"Not at the moment."
Coal lead his date into the small establishment where they were both quickly seated. Blake took note at how some of the people around them seemed to know Coal to some degree as a few of them exchanged a quick hello with the soldier.
After ordering a round of drinks, none alcoholic specifically for Coal, Blake peered over her menu at the boy sitting opposite her narrowing her eyes slightly. For reasons she could not understand, Coal had a completely different air about him that she normally sensed. Normally Blake would naturally feel his aura pulsating around him ready for anything and everything but now he radiated almost nothing. It was slightly unnerving.
"You seem different." Blake said glancing back down at her menu
"How so?" Coal asked in return placing his own menu down having decided on a prime rump stake.
"You seem far calmer than usual." Blake shrugged. "Who are you and where is the real Coal?" Coal laughed at the girls joking tone.
"Oh he'll be running around somewhere or other…" Coal chuckled rubbing the back of his head. "But what makes you so sure that I'm not the real Coal?" He asked back in a half joking manner, not that Blake actually realised that the first part was actually rather accurate.
"Well for starters you actually look decently passable for once."
"Ouch…"
"You're not carrying any weapons for the first time since I've met you."
"That is more of a habit then a preference."
"And to top it all off… You don't seem like you're expecting the worst to happen at any given moment." Blake finished. "It's actually nice to see you so relaxed again."
"You make me sound like I'm all work and no play." Coal laughed. "I'm slightly offended."
"Well hopefully now you will take some more time off." Blake smiled. "Considering how long it took you to catch up on all the work you missed while in hospital."
"I cannot believe Oobleck has me doing third year work just because I got full marks on every one of his assignments a few weeks!" Coal groaned smacking his head down on the table.
"Nerd." Blake joked rolling her eyes at the over dramatic display.
"I wear that badge with honour!"
Having gotten themselves a rather hefty serving of the local verity of fish and talked aimlessly about their first semester at Beacon. Coal and Blake left the eatery and walked around the small area looking at some of the small relics of a once prosperous town. The small village had its own air about it which spoke history. Something that both teens found that they held a common interest in as they walked and climbed among some of the old ruins.
Having found a spot sat on top of a ruined watchtower, Coal and Blake sat facing the sunset shoulders touching in electrifying subtle contact.
"I don't get you Fluffles." Blake said nudging him in the shoulder grinning to herself. "You had everything. Big house, rich parents, more money than you can possibly imagine and a drop dead stunning fiancée. Yet here you are sitting on a broken old tower with a Faunus eating ice cream in a village that basically doesn't exist to the rest of the world far away from the rest of civilisation."
"So?"
"So…" Blake smiled rolling her eyes. "Care to explain your angle here?"
"What is there to explain?" Coal shrugged not really understanding what Blake was asking. "I'm not some puppet my father controls, I'm my own person… Somewhat. Though your scepticism is warranted."
"I don't know what you mean."
"Blake, we both know about what my father's company does to its Faunus workers." Coal said rather sorrowful. "I guess that kind of makes me wonder the same thing. Why would you be sitting up here with a human of all things, the one thing that has subjected you to immense discrimination?"
"I have absolutely no idea…" Blake hummed before leaning across and planning a quick kiss on Coal cheek. "Maybe it has something to do with that human being tolerable."
"Only tolerable?" Coal teased softly, leaning in closer to the Faunus. Blake gave into her own temptation and also closed in.
"Maybe slightly more that tolerable." She whispered breathing against the boy's lips, her own almost brushing his.
Just then Coal pulled away grinning mischievously.
"That's better." He grinned through a small victorious laugh. Blake stared at him wide eyed for a second confused by the action before realising that she had played right into his trap. Having been brought so close to kissing the boy, Blake was left desperately wanting more.
Rolling her eyes and casting her attention away from the grinning boy, Blake noticed that they weren't the only couple in the area at the time. Walking below them was another human and Faunus hand in hand and very intimate.
Coal noticed Blake looking at the couple below them and directed her attention to another Human and Faunus sitting on a bench watching the sunset also.
"Wait…" Blake voiced in a slightly shocked expression. "What am I looking at?"
"The world Kitten." Coal said. "This place is one of the few that I know of where Humans and Faunus live side by side in true harmony."
"I thought we were still in Vale." Blake stated grinning at the sight she had longed to see her whole life. "How did you find this place?"
"You can thank my squad for that." Coal said smiling. "Ruin was raised here. He brought me here a few times to bask in the tranquillity of the place. Now that I think about it, Ruin was probably the person I was closest too."
"Other than your sister." Blake question finally able to get some kind of background on the boy and his time with the military.
"Actually… Winter wasn't part of that squad." Coal informed. "She just tagged along from time to time to make sure I wasn't doing anything stupid."
"Like destroying everything in your path." Blake laughed before looking back out towards the horizon and sighing happily. "I don't think I've ever seen a more peaceful place."
"Yeah… I guess I just wanted you to see it so that you know that the gap between humans and Faunus isn't as big as they make it seem... Maybe then, you'd know that there is at least one place in the world where you won't feel the need to hide."
Blake looked back into Coal's obsidian black eyes. she was taken back by how much affection came across in Coal's voice. He truly held a special place in his heart for this small, nameless, hidden village.
"Pfft you are so sentimental." Blake giggled uncontrollably.
"Only a little so don't get used to it." Coal laughed wrapping an arm around his date. Blake rested her head on his shoulder and watched as the last part of the sun disappeared over the horizon.
"And if I want to get used to it?"
"Then I will have to get used to it myself." Coal chuckled to himself getting another giggle from Blake.
"You know something." Blake said reaching up and taking off her bow and throwing the ribbon away. "I actually prefer the sun rise to the sun set."
"Whys that?"
"When the sun sets, darkness envelops the sky in a never ending void of blackness. But when it rises. It brings forth a new day and new hope that things will be better than the previous one."
"And you call me sentimental." Coal laughed. "as for me, I prefer the sun set. The challenges that the night brings are just that. A wall to climb to make it to the sunrise. that's what makes the sunrise more worthwhile… That and I like a good challenge."
Coal and Blake were walking back towards the boy's bike after spending a few more hours teasing one another over how cheesy and sentimental the other was. It was getting rather late by the time they mounted the bike and headed back towards Beacon. Having gotten over her initial nervousness about tonight, Blake seemed to relax more on the back of the bike, hugging onto Coal from behind, she couldn't help but looked out towards the shattered moon wondering how it ended up so broken.
Coal felt the Faunus' grip around his stomach tighten. Not knowing the reason why, he slowed down a little bit thinking that Blake was still uneasy about being on the back of the bike having already made the mental note to take the car next time they went on a date. Not that he was planning a second date or anything… But given the opportunity he would snatch up the chance in a heartbeat. Now dead sure about his feelings towards the Faunus, Coal would happily admit when asked that he did like Blake beyond the normal friendship boundaries. He wasn't quite sure if he loved her, being unexperienced in that realm he wasn't really sure what love felt like but he was pretty sure the potential was there and that it just needed to be discovered. But was Blake really the one he wanted to unlock that side of him.
Coal quickly summed up his inner thoughts about the girl sat behind him. Sure, when they met they were at each other's throats but now… That was kind of up in the air. Thinking about it only confused him more and when they eventually pulled into the garage back at Beacon, Coal asked himself one question.
What is it that he truly wanted?
Coal thought about the question all the way back towards the dorm rooms and finally when they stopped outside of Blakes room, Coal found his answer. Staring into the Faunus eyes he only wanted one thing. As it seemed, so did Blake.
As the gap between them inched closer and closer. Blake was adamant not to let Coal escape this time. She felt completely overwhelmed by the sudden rush of emotions and pounding of her heartbeat when she realised Coal had started to close the gap first. She felt herself being pulled closer as if she were a puppet on strings having no control of her actions as she stood up on her toes, placing a hand on his chest slowly drawing him closer. Until finally their lips met.
Upon contact Coal felt everything vanish underneath him, as if the world around him no longer existed and that only Blake and himself mattered. Snaking a hand to her waist, coal pressed their bodies together completely loosing himself in the kiss and only deepening it further.
The moment was broken when Blake pushed him away and held him at arm's length. Not because she was against what was happen, more like if she let it continue she would definitely be taking things far too quickly… Not that Blake minded but there were somethings that she just needed to be sure of before she took the next step.
"So… What does this make us?" Blake asked quietly, barely able to use her voice. Coal needed to shake himself from his daze before he could even register what Blake had said.
"Errr… I don't know." He said still flabbergasted. "I ventured into the realm of uncertainty ages ago."
"I realised." Blake giggled getting a smile from Coal in return. Both teens knew that they had gone passed the point of no return and both could still feel the effects of the electricity that had just passed and was still coursing through them. "At least we now know what this is…" Blake whispered leaning in once more.
"Yeah… We do." Coal whispered back cupping her chin ready to resume where they left off. unfortunate Blake kept just enough distance so that they didn't resume kissing, though she was beaming from ear to ear as she fluttered her eyes at him and whispered more.
"So, what are we?"
"Do I really need to say it?" Coal asked grinning also. For a long time, he and Blake had discovered that they very rarely needed to voice what they were feeling. When one felt down the other would know it, when the other was happy then the second was happy with them. Even their silences were filled with unspoken honesty. They both knew where they were heading, neither really needing to voice what the other was currently feeling. Something they had both started feeling since that first time down at the docks. Without uttering another word, the teens closed the gap once more locking into another passionate kiss. Wordlessly confirming exactly what they now were.
Boyfriend & Girlfriend.
At the end of the hallway, a girl concealed behind a black mask numbered with the number X (10) hid in the shadows watching the two teens make out, silently grinning to herself. Her crimson red eyes faded back into the shadows where she disappeared into the night, having found a nightmare to awaken within the boy... Just like 2 years ago, when he first met the girl and fell into another pit of despair.
Crimson would soon have her way...
