Hello boys and girls Necro here and welcome to the 4th chapter of RWBY pleasant, I would like to take this moment to say thank you readers for being patient with my updates but this is a side project while I work on my more popular mass effect story so I will be updating that more often than this. Now then let's-
Ruby: don't forget disclaimers
Me: UGGHH why though people know the only thing I own is the story line and my OC
Ruby: do the disclaimers or else *unfurls crescent rose*
Me: Sheesh what's got your knickers in a twist did Weiss reject you or something?
*cue primal scream of rage followed by Ruby chasing me out the house running past WBY, Val and Jason*
Weiss: what did we miss?
RWBY-Pleasant
Chapter 4
Ruby eyed the new hunter/huntress duo in front of her with suspicion as were the rest of her team mates, after being discharged from the infirmary team RWBY and the new pair that had rather aggressively entered their lives had made their way to the cafeteria to grab something to eat, since they were forced chaperone the dynamic duo team RWBY were forced to sit with the pair, and they loathed every second of it.
The dynamic duo were chatting with each other like this was a normal thing for them, getting trapped in a new world, but for us the atmosphere was weiss cold, damn you yang and your damn puns, thought Ruby.
Blake was absentmindedly stirring her tea as she read a book, or appeared to be doing so she was actually eyeing the two sorcerers near her making sure they didn't try anything.
Yang was glaring daggers at Jason her fingers drumming a steady rhythm on the table as her mind raced with vivid images of how she would more than likely castrate and vivisect the young man.
Weiss was silently fuming behind her book the insult Jason had delivered her clearly having gotten under her skin and Ruby couldn't blame her, I'm surprised Jason is still alive after calling Weiss frosty knickers.
Ruby for her part was munching happily on a plate of cookies as she made silent observations of her team mates and their new acquaintances. The pair was having a discussion about somebody called Skulduggery and how he would apparently find a way to help them they hoped but from where Ruby sat they didn't sound very hopeful. The peaceful if tense silence between her team mates ended when Yang spoke.
"So you two are you a thing?" it was clear Yang was trying to antagonize them, and quite frankly I couldn't blame her. Valkyrie arched an eyebrow while Jason just cocked his head to the side as he directed his icy gaze at Yang.
"I don't know are we a thing Val."
"Well I did admit my feelings to you and you kissed me before we were sent here so I would imagine we're more than friends."
"Aye but you didn't ask me out."
"Oi don't blame that on me you haven't said the words either arsehole."
"Not my fault you were the one who realized their feelings first you cheeky bitch." Ruby could see her team mates grinning like Cheshire cats as the duo fought before them and she had to admit despite her caring nature seeing them two bicker is the least they deserved after nearly breaking her jaw.
The duo glared at each other for a few seconds when suddenly they cracked a smile at each other.
"Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?"
"No but I've kissed you."
"Yeah and I needed mouth wash afterwards." The pair burst out laughing leaving team RWBY utterly confused, how could they insult each other so casually like that was the thought going through RWBY's minds.
"So to answer your question Yang yes we are a thing as you like to call it" said Val as her chuckles died down
Yang nodded in silence her attempt at aggravating the duo having failed. Jason caught on to this
"What's wrong goldilocks hoping to get a reaction?" Val glared at him but his word successfully provoked Yang.
"Yes actually since you've got here you've been nothing more than a gigantic pain in our ass and have taken every chance offered to insult us, on top of that you put me, Weiss and my FIFTEEN YEAR OLD SISTER IN THE FUCKING HOSPITAL" the hall goes quiet as Yang's blazing crimson eyes bore into him, he remains silent so she continues "You have done nothing but hurt me and my friends since your arrival, you are a fucking asshole who only seems to care about the little slut who-" she got not further
Like a flash of lightning Jason darted forward grabbed Yangs head and slammed it onto the table RWB are too shocked to move at the sudden violence, Weiss recovers first and is about to berate the young man when she sees his face and her expression shifts from anger to fear.
It is the very definition of hate, mouth formed into a hateful sneer, the shadows that make up his power seeping from underneath his hood which cast the upper part of his face in shadow save for his eyes which are glowing with burning fury.
"Listen to me you little bitch" the voice is ice cold and carries a very subtle tint of anger, but most disturbing is that it is not Jason's voice it has a deeper and more sinister tone. "If you ever say anything like that again or hurt Val in any way it won't be the hospital they send you to next time, it will be the morgue, you can insult me all you like but Val is off limits." Yang has gone deathly pale, all colour has drained from her face not from the threat but the way he said it and the expression on his face it has her scared for her life… literally.
After a tense few seconds Jason released her, Yang with the imminent threat of death no longer present began to regain some colour in her face, eventually she was back to normal and that's when team RWBY began to glare at Jason.
If looks could kill he would be six feet under in a match box, but he simply returned their glares with a cocky smile and left, Val stared after him then looked at team RWBY
"I'm sorry about that, he is not the friendliest of people at the best of times, it took me 3 months to get more than a sentence out of him." The 4 girls directed their gaze at Val
"Oh how I would love to teach that bastard some manners, even if I have to knock them into him." Val had a thought
"I believe you are allowed to 'spar', is that the correct term." The 4 girls nodding figuring where this was going, "Well Jason has never and I mean never been one to back down from a direct challenge… no matter how many he faces."
"You would throw your boyfriend into the fire like that?" asked Ruby slightly shocked, Val sighed
"I'm afraid that the only way Jason will learn to respect you and eventually warm up to you enough to apologize is to either kick his arse or impress him enough with your fighting skills that he learns to respect you for what you can do." The way Val said this seemed to send a less than inspiring message to team RWBY
"You say that like you think we can't beat him" observed Yang with a glare.
"He is one of the most powerful and skilled sorcerers I know, defeating him, even for your little group will most certainly be a challenge. I'm not saying you can't do it but I will be surprised if you do" team RWBY looked at each other silently, then smiled at each other before directing their collective gaze at Val again
"Where is he right now?"

Jason was laying down on a patch of grass in the courtyard the tree next to him shading him from the high noon sun.
He heard footsteps and looked to his side to see team RWBY and Val approaching him, he sighed and got up to a sitting position before directing his gaze at Val, she nodded her head towards team RWBY so he looked at them and the four of them were quietly glaring at him.
He decided to break the silence
"You know if you keep staring people might get the wrong idea" he said this with a teasing grin on his face, the 4 girls kept their glares locked on him. "Okay I can tell you're here for something so what is it?"
"We want to fight you" said Yang casually
"Come again?"
"We want to fight you, us four against you one after the other to teach you to keep that wise ass trap of yours shut." Said Weiss icily
"I would tell you to chill but you seem to do that rather well anyway frosty knickers." Weiss' face went as red as Ruby's cloak with anger. If Jason wasn't on thin ice with her before he sure was now.
"Call me that again, I dare you." Jason looked at her with a smirk on his face
"Why does it annoy you frosty knickers." Weiss drew Myrtenaster and thrust it towards his face, Jason grabbed the blade of the weapon causing the thrusting sword to abruptly stop. "Annoying you is too easy." He looked back at Yang. "Arena, half an hour, don't be late." With that he let go of Weiss' sword stood up and disappeared in a cloud of shadows. Everything was silent for a moment before Weiss spoke again
"When I get my hands on him, I'm going to kill him"

Half an hour later team RWBY walked into the arena to see the lights were off and everything was pitch black
"Hey we're here" called Yang cockily, she looking forward to pay back, lights turned on and RWBY immediately realized this fight would be more than a sparring match, the stands surrounding the arena were filled with students all sat watching what was about to happen. Sat in the middle of the arena was Jason he seemed to be meditating.
"I know" he simply replied he hadn't moved since they got here he hadn't even opened his eyes. RWBY made entered the 'ring' as it was now being commonly called; it was essentially a large mat that covered the entire room's floor up to the stand walls which was half the length of a regulation football pitch but circular.
A voice came over the speakers.
"The following matches are between the members of team RWBY and Jason Scythe, the rules are simple once your aura is red you are out of the fight, if and when a member of team RWBY is defeated Jason will have 15 minutes to rest and recover before the next member steps up to face him, first up is Blake Belladona."
Blake made her way forward as her teammates headed for the stands which were elevated above the ring. She drew Gamboral Shroud and waited Jason still hadn't moved the buzzer sounded and before anyone apart from two even knew what was happening Jason moved.
He rushed forward in a blur of black his shadow wreathed fist slamming into Blakes gut, she felt the air leave her lungs before she was lifted and thrown to the other side of the ring, she twisted and landed in a crouch and got into a fighting stance glaring at Jason as he turned to face her. Shadows were leaking from his hood shrouding his face in darkness, save for blood red eyes that glared at her, immediately Blake realized that Jason was like nothing she had ever faced before, and the realization may have come too late.

Me: eh no problem I should have realized that you and Weiss were together what with your midnight activities and all.

Me: He he… Sorry?
