(Alright, onto more chapters. And the like)

Fire and Coffee

After yesterday's events of: Jaune standing up to Cardin, Jaune saving Cardin's life from an Ursa, finding Cardin having broken legs for whatever reason, and Silas and Blake hooking up and causing stomach cramps from how sweet it is. It's time for a day or two off:

Also I'm talking with Cthugha again

"Hey buddy how's it going?" The fiery eldritch thing asks curiously, this time as a bartender made of fire. Cleaning a glass and dressed in a suit with glasses on his...'face'

"Kind of...odd really. Yourself?"

"Meh, have to deal with those fucking Star Spawn shitheads, and Yig is got pissed I burned a few snakes. SNAKES ARE NOT SOMETHING TO BE CARED FOR I TOLD HIM!" He snaps at the end with his fire head growing to white hot intensity.

"I'm sorry but umm, who's Yig?"

"Someone a friend of yours will meet soon." Cthugha explains sounding utterly bored

"But-"

"Sooooooooooon" He says spookily before laughing a bit, I groan and shake my head at the fiery thing. "So wanna tell me somethings about your whole...group?" I ask him, why I'm saying him is because of one reason and one reason only: Cthugha sounds like a guy to me and I need to identify it with either a penis or...other thing

"Well here's a run down: There's the Great Old Ones, I myself being one of them who are weird assholes. And the Outer Gods who are bigger, weirder and more assholish than most."

"Share a few names with me?"

Cthugha sighs

"Well there's Yog-Sothoth: the Key and Gate yadda-yadda-yadda, basically a drug trip brought into existence and powered by insanity and confusion."

I remember the gelatin thing then, the Gate...Yog-Sothoth eh?

"There's the king of all of us as well somewhat who's an Outer God. Azathoth: The Blind Idiot God, The Nuclear Chaos, The Daemon Sultan. As you can guess by the titles he's super powerful...buuuut ain't so smart."

The Daemon Sultan, Azathoth. Ok two down and two to go on the 'Apocalypse maker checklist'.

"And of course the...'Messenger' of them: Nyarlathotep, the Crawling Chaos, the Black Pharaoh, lots of names ya know." He mutters in what sounds like disgust, "Too say he's a dick is an understatement."

"Why do you say that?"

"Instead of just being mindless like Azathoth or unfathomable like Yog-Sothoth, he's basically the bad parts of you humans wrapped up in one package and cranked up the knob so hard it broke off: he's smug, cowardly, sadistic, petty, spiteful, and unlike the others who just ignore humanity or ain't even aware of it. Nyarlathotep knows you guys are here...and makes it a hobby of driving people insane or driving civilizations into ruin. You know?"

Cardin would love this guy!

"Yeah...I can see that."

"Yepo yepy yep...oh, you should probably wake up." Cthugha states with his flames starting to die out.

"Oh? Why's that?"

"The Cat might just lay on your face." He blandly states, as everything turns to darkness. Nothing.

I open up my eyes and see Cheshire walking across my chest, "Well...how do you do?" He asks nervously. I can only scowl at the feline Grimm

"What were you doing Chesh?"

"Was just...g-going to...sleep on you?" He says awkwardly, I grin and flick his nose playfully. "Not on my face you."

He can only smile at me, usual smile that's full of teeth. "What? Me?! Oh NOOOOOO sir! I am a Grimm of honor!" he says theatrically, "I AM THE TRICKSTER! I-" he gets smacked with a pillow and yowls falling to the floor.

"Need to shut up." Yang groggily says

"Thank you Yang. You are my hero." I hear Uriah pipes in just as groggily

"You got it Uri." She replies

I can't help but snicker at it, but there are groans as I guess everyone starts waking up. "Who ruined sleep?" Silas mumbles tiredly

"You can blame the Cat for that." Yang replies, and everyone starts glaring daggers at Cheshire which he replies with a nervous chuckle. I should probably save him before they all decide to skin him alive.

"Calm down, calm down." I mutter dropping from the bed, I then tear off a piece of paper from a notebook laid out on one of the tables. I scramble around in the draw and pull out a pencil, I then walk over and hand the paper and pencil to Silas.

He just stares for a moment before looking at me like.

"What's this about?"

"I'll go and do a run and bring everyone back some coffee. Just write down how you want the stuff and I'll get it." I explain to him, he nods before writing down something and handing the paper and pencil to Blake who does the same, then giving it to Yang who then folds it up into a paper airplane and tosses it to her sister.

Ruby writes down something then hands it to Roy, he then continues it on to Weiss before it all ends with Uriah.

"Done!" He says, I walk over to him and grab the paper from him. "Oh, and I'll be buying this stuff." He says

"You're buying it?" Weiss suspiciously asks

"Hey! I have money too Weiss, not just you." He says with a frown on his face, Weiss merely chuckles.

"I was going to say thanks you know."

Uriah's expression turns confused for a moment before he sinks his head, and mutters out. "Oh."

"Alrighty then!" I break in, "Where's your wallet at Uriah?"

"In my jean's pocket." He says pointing to his jeans that are laid out near the door to the bathroom. I sigh and head over to the pants and before I reach into the left pocket, Uriah yells at me.

"BOSS DON'T!-"

But he was to late.

Something quickly snaps down on my fingers, it hits fast and hard on them. And the pain at that moment could only be described as: 'Ow'. I then start screaming in utter pain and roll around on the floor

I can't pay attention due to how badly this hurts, and looking at what's on my fingers is: A mouse trap. I look at Uriah who's holding his hands up in defense and has a shrunken expression on his face, I could only seethe with anger at him at the moment.

"WHY THE FUCK DO YOU HAVE A MOUSE TRAP IN YOUR FUCKING POCKET URIAH?!" I snap at him in a mix between anger and pain

"YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN YOU'LL GET PICK POCKETED!"

"GET THIS THING OFF OF ME YOU PARANOID ASSHOLE!"

Uriah then heads on over to me and get's the mouse trap off of me, my fingers red and stinging. Looking swollen like sausages

I take the paper and Uriah's money then stumble out the door, keeping my poor hurt fingers in my armpit. I then start heading to the library, can buy coffee in there since Cain mentioned it being there one day. Thanks Cain

I think that Uriah Greene may very well be paranoid

Oh gee Cain! What made you think that?

You experienced it first hand

Go fuck yourself you bald bastard

But I did good sir! I did go fuck myself.

I...I-I don't want to know about that

I bet you don't...even I don't want to remember that day

Thankfully he decided to cut it there, in all honesty considering who I have to be fighting against in the future I don't want to know if he was being literal or not.

I make it back into the library and see Cain sitting at the Librarian's desk. I glare at him for a moment before smiling and waving, he gives an off handed wave and I go up to him. "Cain. Mind giving what's on this list?" I ask handing him the paper.

He looks at me with a strange look for a moment before heading off to where I guess the coffee machine is at. Well while he's doing that, I may as well just take a seat. I head over to my usual spot where I sit with Pyrrha, she's not here so that's sad.

I sigh and start leaning back in my chair.

"What're you waiting on?" Someone asks, I fell out of my chair for that. Startled me a lot.

Rubbing the back of my head I look and see a girl standing there, watching me: she has short dark brown hair with a beret ontop of her head along with aviator sunglasses covering her eyes, she's wearing a long coca colored shirt with dark pants and leather high-heel boots, and a number of accessories one of them being a bang slung on her shoulder and another are gloves that expose her index fingers.

"I'm just waiting on coffee." I state shrugging before getting up, "Also don't sneak up on people like that. Startled me there."

She gives a little grin of amusement and tilts her aviators, showing she has dark brown eyes. "I don't think startled is the right word for what I saw there." She says with the grin more and more prominent on her face. I sigh and shake my head

"Now you've gone and hurt my feelings." I reply sarcastically, she chuckles and shakes her head. "Riiiiight, so anyways. What's your name?"

"Hey Axel!" Another person says happily, why people are coming in here now? No idea.

Taking a look past mystery girl I see a friendly and familiar face in Velvet. Unlike the first time we met, she's dressed up in what I can guess is her combat uniform: a long-sleeve brown jacket and dark pants with black leggings protected near the top by golden bands, with golden spaulders and vambraces on either of her arms.

Along with her are two guys: one is tall and athletic looking with shaved black hair and dressed in a long pale green short-sleeved robe and brown pants, black on green boots, and a piece of armor going past his shoulder. He's also huge, seven foot at least.

The other guy is a bit...off. Dark skinned with messy copper hair, scars all over his arms and a scar on his bottom lip that goes vertically to his chin, he also has pure white eyes...maybe he's blind? The guy is wearing an orange sleeveless vest that's almost as dark as the guy's skin along with brown shoes and black jeans.

I have at Velvet and give a bit of a smile, "Hey Velvet. How's it going?"

"Pretty good..." She then points at my hand with an eyebrow raised, "What happened to your fingers?"

I look at my hand to see the swollen sausage fingers again and sigh, "It's...i-i-it's a long story." I say to her

"How about a short version?"

"I got my fingers caught in a mouse trap."

The big guy visibly flinches at that, "Ouch. You alright?" He asks sounding concerned. I merely shrug

"Meh. Little pain is never a bad thing." I reply to him, "So care to introduce yourselves or do I get to play a guessing game for your names?" I ask.

"I'm Yatsuhashi." The big guy in green says

"Fox." The possibly blind one quietly states.

"Name's Coco." The girl finishes with a wave, "So how do you know Vel by the way?"

"Kinda played a bit of comforter for her after Cardin and his pack of morons were bullying her." I tell her, she gives a little smile and nods.

"Thanks for that."

"No problem for me. Also I have two questions."

"Shoot."

"The first one is for...Fox over there." I say pointing back at him, the three turn to look at him. "What's the question?" He asks

"It's...probably insensitive." I tell him uncomfortably

"The question I'm guessing is: 'Are you blind?'"

"Yeah?..."

"No worries, always asked that. I'm not blind actually."

What.

"You're not blind?"

"Nope."

"Huh...eyes threw me off there buddy."

He nods, I turn my attention back on Coco "So what's the second question?" She asks curiously

"Why are you all dressed in combat uniform? It's still the morning you know." I tell them, "It's actually ten in the afternoon." She states in deadpan. With her saying it, it was at that moment I realized something:

I'm still in my pajamas.

"Coffee's ready!" I hear Cain state, "Well. That's my cue to leave. See you all later, nice seeing you again Velvet." I say waving before heading over to Cain, on the desk is a metal tray with eight cups of coffee with little sticky notes on them with names written on them.

"Here you go. Gave you a cup as well." He says in a friendly tone, "Thanks." I state before handing over twelve Lien.

"Have a good one." I say which he replies with a nod, I take the tray and head on back to the dorm. Opening up the door I see that everyone is still in bed

"Alright guys I brought the drinks." I state earning a flat "Yaaaay." from everyone.

Time to play a butler!

I head on over to Weiss'/Uriah's and Ruby's/Roy's bunks. "Iced coffee for Weiss, or should I say WEISSed coffee." I say smiling, everyone groans but Yang snorts. Weiss takes her coffee and takes a sip

"Thank you Axel."

"Cream and two sugars for Ruby." I say handing it up to Rubes who nods

"Just cream for Royboy." I then hand it to Roy who smiles, "Thanks!"

"Black coffee for Uriah, quit trying to act tough around us." I plainly state as Uriah grabs his cup, "What? I'm fine with it!" He says drinking it.

I roll my eyes and head to the other side of the room.

"Latte for Blake. Espresso for Silas."

The two grab their drinks and give a smile before raising their drinks and taking small sips. Good guys, glad to have them for friends.

"Coffee with milk for Yang."

She takes the cup and gives a thumbs up, I take my cup and go to set the tray on the desk. I then take a drink from my coffee, it's mocha surprisingly .

"So boss," Uriah says before taking a sip, "Anything you found out?"

"Yeah. We should know." Yang says

"We missed breakfast." I say miserably, goodbye bacon

"What do you-"

"Turns out it's ten right now."

When I say that everyone goes solemn faced, "Oh."

We were all not really prepared this day. "We slept in." Weiss mutters, "I blame Cheshire for not waking us up." Silas adds in bitterly

"Hey! You're young lads and ladies!" Cheshire says in defense, "You can also set up alarms you know."

We goofed

(There we go! A bit of lightheartedness this chapter for the most part, next one maybe/maybe not be like this.)
