Alec sat up, stretched, and yawned. 'Guh.. in here again?' He looked around the room, and seen 3 girls were in the room, strange, Yang was never a morning person, though, she had been missing for a few days, and everyone had started to worry, so he needed to come up with a plan to look for her. He stood up and started walking towards the closet, he swung it open and pulled out a towel, then headed to the bathroom. Closing the door, he threw the towel onto the floor and took off his clothes, put them ontop of the towel, started and hopped into the shower, and started to clean himself."Boy, oh boy, how I miss this relaxing sensation."
Fifteen minutes passed, and he stopped the shower, then jumped out and wrapped himself in the towel. Another 10 minutes passed before he emerged from the bathroom, dressed in his regular clothing. Taking a quick peek around the room, he wanted to take a look around for Yang. Alec picked up his armor from the wall and set himself up in it. Alec grabbed the doorknob, twisted, then left.
Pacing around the display case littered hallway, he tried to make sense of where she could be. 'Party? Not likely, too early for parties. With a boy? That could be a possibility, though I don't have any clue that would be able to take that tank.' Coming from a doorway down the hall, Ozpins' office, 2 voices drifted from the room.
'Can't be much harm in listening.' Alec slowly moved towards the door, listening in as much as possible.
"I understand she's been missing for several days, but we are not in condition to put on a full-scale invasion, not with the limited amount of Hunters, and Huntresses at our disposal."
"We cannot stand idly while these creatures use a Huntress for their own good."
Peeking inside, Alec saw Ozpin, sitting at his desk, talking with someone else, looking somewhere around 20 years, he wore a black outfit, black gloves, black boots. Strapped to him were 4 Daggers, fitted with the enchantments Weiss had taught him about earlier. Perhaps a relative?
"Fort Miriyad is too heavily defended, if we were to launch an invasion, we would lose more than we would gain."
"And what about the new student? He could be a valuable asset to us, he has potential."
"Alec? Yes, I have plans for him. It is obvious that he has more physical resistance than most of us, along with strength, besting the entire team of CRDL."
"That's hilarious."
Alec stood up and ran off. He needed to find out about this place, "Fort Miriyad", and it's defenders. Stepping inside RWBY's dormitory, it appeared everyone was up and about. Weiss was in the bathroom, Blake was cooking, and Ruby was reading a book on the table.
"Morning everyone." Alec said, taking a seat at the table, next to Ruby. She looked up from her book, stared for a few seconds, then looked back down.
"Sorry about that, Ruby hasn't been herself lately due to Yangs' disappearance.." Alec nodded and tapped the table.
"I noticed. Do you know anything about a "Fort Miriyad?"
Blake turned around and looked at him. "Fort Miriyad is a Vale Military base, or was. Why?"
Alec shrugged. "Just wondering, overheard some people talking about it and I wanted to know. Do you have any clue where it is?"
"No, but I think Weiss might know someone who will." Blake turned back around and pulled the pan off the stove, then slid its contents onto a plate, and put it in front of Ruby. Blake then went over to the bathroom and knocked on the door.
"Weiss! Alec needs to talk to you!" Another pound, this time from Weiss.
"Well I can't do it right now! I'm unclothed!" Alec stood up from his chair and walked towards the window. He wanted to get to Yang, if she was at Miriyad, or some other place. He wanted to reconnect RWBY, and dominate her captors. Though, he was only a child, how far would he go until he was cut down? He paced about the room until finally taking a seat on one of the beds. Finally, Weiss came out of the bathroom, with a towel around her hair, and another around her torso.
"Is he-.." Weiss and Alec stared at each other, before Alec stood up and left the room, heading for the courtyard.
It was quite bright outside, a thing Alec had hated was bright things. Though, this was one of the only places he could've gone, besides, the Beacon courtyard was extremely beautiful on days like this. The birds flew about happily, occasionally landing on a tree or the ground. Finally, the familiar tap-tap from Weiss' high heels, and she took a seat next to him.
"You didn't see a thing, got it?" She pointed a finger at Alec.
"Not a thing, not that I would've cared to, to be absolutely honest."
"Good, now, what was it you wanted me for?" She retracted her finger and stared at him.
"Fort Miriyad, I need some information on its whereabouts."
"Fort Miriyad? What business would you have there?" Alec grabbed some rocks from the ground and started throwing them into the fountain nearest to them, making 1/10 successful shots.
"Don't ask, I just need it's location." Weiss nodded and stared at the fountain.
"I wouldn't be the one to know, however, I believe one of my old contacts used to work there, if I could get you on the phone with him, perhaps he would give you the location." Alec dropped all of the rocks in his hands then stood up.
"Please get me on the phone with him ASAP." Weiss nodded and stood, then walked off. They couldn't know what he was doing, they would hinder him, to the point where he couldn't get anything done. Just the way he did business.
Hello there, I apologize for my inactivity, real life issues and such, I'm trying to get as much writing done as possible, but with my thin schedule of free time I am unable to do much. I hope you've enjoyed the chapter, and thanks to Loric Kane for helping me improve.
