I am pleased to announce that my planned crossover stories finally have decent titles! So as soon as I finish posting what I had left on this story, it'll probably go on HIATUS for a little while. It's not that I don't like this story... It's just that I'm having more fun writing the other stories.
Anyway Phantom Spell, (A Danny Phantom and Harry Potter Crossover) will began posting soon. If anyone wants more warning for whatever I'm working on, you can check my profile here on FanFiction for my status on each story. Or if you want to find me on Twitter which is where you can provide your own input for the stories, Lord_Vortrex, is the account. (If it doesn't show the little at symbol there then just throw it in the front).
Chapter 9
Wolf Among Us
Atlesium Flagship
Neo & Phantom
"That is a very useful ability you've got there." Phantom spoke cheerfully as she playfully rubbed Neo's head. The two now stood in a shadowed corner of Ironwood's ship. Looking around Phantom almost laughed. "Ironwood must not be familiar with our kind of abilities. Judging from the severe lack of guards, he must not have thought that anyone could get onto his precious battleship."
Neo smiled at Phantom, she had been worried but her desperation had outweighed said dread. She then looked out into the corridor and saw only two guards walking towards a door marked as 'Mess Hall.'
"Come on, let's go find your uncle." Phantom grabbed Neo's hand and the air around them shimmered for a second before the two vanished from sight. As the two walked into the corridor, invisible, Phantom couldn't help but say, "Ya know these hallways are way too big. You'd think they would make them smaller so that us invisible people couldn't walk right next to them without worry of bumping into someone."
And with that last remark the unseen duo set off in such of Neo's uncle, Roman Torchwick.
Beacon Academy Infirmary
Too many to announce in attendance
Ruby awoke with a start glancing around trying to figure out where she was. There were short metal framed beds organized neatly in the room. She could see Weiss lying down across from her with thick bandages wrapped around her side. On a chair sitting next to Weiss was a small girl with long blue hair sleeping. And on a bed next to Ruby was a strange boy with thick gray hair and furry white wolf ears, but the strangest thing about him was that he was tied to the bed. Large leather bands were securely tightened around him.
Wincing Ruby sat up, only to notice the various bandages wrapped around her arms and sides.
"At least you can move."
Ruby looked towards the boy in shock; she hadn't realized that he was awake. His bright blue eyes gleamed in the otherwise dark room. "Umm…sorry?"
He shook his head, or at least he tried to."Don't be, it's my fault…or at least I think it is."
"What do you mean?"
"Well I don't know what happened. But I just woke up here all tied up, so I must've done something wrong…right?"
Ruby frowned, "Do you mean that you don't remember anything?"
"Pretty much, though I can remember like fleeting glances…but…Ow…" Ruby looked at him quizzically. "Sorry. It's just that when I try to think about before my head starts to hurt."
"Well, what can you remember?"
"I remember a couple of different things…like running…" He clenched his fists as his face contorted in pain. "And there was a…man…with-with white hair laughing." He gasped and began breathing heavily.
Just then Professor Ozpin and Glynda Goodwitch walked into the room.
"Good to see you're awake Ms. Rose. Do you think you could tell us anything about what happened on the pier yesterday?"
"Glynda relax, we can ask her later when she's not bedridden."
Ruby shook her head. "No, it's okay. We were looking for Weiss when all the mechs started acting crazy. Yang was helping the guards and Blake was piloting a paladin while I was looking for Weiss."
"It's the same story the others are telling us, Glynda. I don't think you're going to find anything else by questioning another injured girl."
Glynda sighed, "I suppose you're righ-"
"Umm… excuse me?" All three of them turned to look at the boy tied to the bed. "Could someone please tell me why I'm tied to this bed?"
Glynda and Ozpin looked at each other for a moment before Glynda turned back to him and said, "At the moment, no. Your appearance at the docks raised too many questions." After a short pause she added, "Not to mention, no one knows who you are."
He stared at Glynda and Ozpin for a full minute of awkward silence before he said, "Yuki Setsuko, and that's about the only thing I can remember."
There was yet another long silence before Ozpin said, "Amnesia?" Yuki nodded. "Could you tell us what the last thing you remember is? A date perhaps?"
He shook his head, "Just a man with white hair laughing. And a feeling… of being cold."
Ozpin turned towards Glynda and shrugged. Glynda stared at him in shock, "You can't be serious! The Council said-"
"The Council says a lot of things." Ozpin turned back to face Ruby and Yuki. "Let me fill you both in on the rest of the events on the docks. Before you were knocked unconscious, Ruby, you collided with the giant dust crystal. Now I wouldn't say that it was your fault but when you crashed into it, it shattered or exploded I should say."
Ruby groaned, "Weiss is gonna kill me…"
"Actually you probably saved her life. When the crystal exploded, all of the security mechs returned to normal. Regardless when the smoke cleared Blake found Mr. Setsuko here buried under some of the remnants of the crystal."
"And what is that supposed to mean?" Yuki looked confused and angry.
"Ironwood believes that you were somehow involved in the attack. I believe, however, that you were frozen in that crystal." A look of sheer panic crossed Yuki's face as Ozpin continued. "Ironwood and the Council say that you shouldn't be released until you've been questioned." At this Ozpin smiled, "I believe that this concludes my questioning."
"Ozpin you can't be serious. The Council is angry enough at you."
"Relax, so long as he spends his time here at the academy, they can't complain. So, if you'd please."
Glynda sighed and took out her riding crop. She waved it at Yuki's bed and the bindings began undoing themselves.
As the last binding unwound itself, he leaped up and stretched. His wolf ears twitched as he moved, he seemed to have fangs as well. He was also pretty tall, almost six feet, and despite being somewhat muscular he was also pretty skinny.
"Now then," Ozpin clapped his hands, "Yuki, how old are you?" At his quizzical look, Ozpin said, "Well I need to know what classes to put you in don't I?"
Yuki stared at him, the shock evident on his face. "Six-sixteen."
"Perfect! You'll fit right in with the other freshman." Glynda looked at Ozpin in despair. Ozpin ignored the look and addressed Ruby. "I trust I can count on you to help him in his classes?"
"Wha! Uh..sure?"
Ozpin smiled, "Excellent. Now then, Ruby you'll be stuck in here for another day at least." Ruby groaned. "Those were the nurse's orders, not mine. Unfortunately Ms. Schnee has yet to wake up, so I hope that you could fill her in on everything happening once she does. And finally if you would follow me Mr. Setsuko, we can get everything settled."
"Uh, sure. But please just call me Yuki. I'm not too fond of all that formal stuff." Ozpin nodded and began to lead him out of the infirmary.
I had to double check the RWBY Wiki, it said that Glynda's weapon was a riding chop. I am still under the belief that it is a wand though... Anyone else have any opinions on that?
The chapter title is a blatant reference to the popular video game "The Wolf Among Us" by Telltale Games, though I never played the games myself, I just happened to have thought that the title was cool... I know stupid reasoning but it fit.
