Chapter 9: Little girls and guns
AN: I've decided to split this chapter in two to make it sound better, expect the next chapter later tonight.
[Patch Island, Ruby's house]
Left to her thoughts, Yang was practically seething on way her up the stairs. That little brat had another thing coming if she thought she was going to replace her! Years of making herself look like some unreachable god would not be wasted just because of some random woman!
Yang stopped right before she opened the door to reflect and compose herself. Who was she kidding? She was the baddest thing to hit Remnant ever. Like she could honestly be replaced, she ran a hand through her long golden locks with a smug look on her face.
"Ohhhhh so this is your weak spot hmmm?" Asked a devilish voice getting a whimper in response.
"No more…."
"IM JUST GETTING WARMED UP!"
Yang was completely frozen as thumps could be heard in the room and VERY audible breath intakes. Her mind told her to do the right thing and call the police on her sister. Her other more evil side told her to leave the woman to her fate.
She didn't even know why the 'good side' tried anymore…..
The inside of the room was the perfect picture of all things evil. Ruby set on top of Four's back mercilessly assaulting her sides in a strategic attack to her most vulnerable spot. She tried to roll over and push the smaller girl off but to no avail, the girl's strength outmatched that of the woman tenfold.
Letting up for a moment Ruby looked down at her handiwork, Four's arms and face was as red as Ruby's Red hood and she was panting loudly out of breath.
"Ready to spill?" Four nodded her head furiously.
As soon as the weight on her back was gone she rolled to feet and bolted to the window thankful for the girl being gullible. She quickly unlocked the latches and pulled up…and pulled up.
"Yang use to sneak out all the time so dad bolted the window" cackled the teenage menace "And don't think of breaking through either, there're bars on the outside. I'm really hurt by the way that you would try and trick me like that, you deserve a punishment." The trained soldier could only back away from the approaching monster.
Dust, someone have mercy on this woman's poor soul.

Four had been gone for ten hours; the whole team was starting to get very nervous. With nothing to occupy themselves with just made it worse, and then there was the son of a bitch next door who seemed to know exactly how to push there buttons.
"Fletcher do you want to check out the gym?" I asked trying to change the mood.
He shrugged and stood up which was apparently the best answer I was going to get. We left the room and opted to take the stairs instead of the elevator to save time. The gym wasn't a room in the building we were in, a lot of hunters and huntress live in this area so next to the motel was a large domed building to suit everyone's needs.
The building had two floors; the top housed all the exercise equipment while in the bottom was three decently sized sparing areas. It was early so the place was almost empty, other than a pair using the sparing space and a group of animals getting there nasty prints all over the equipment up stairs.
Fletcher wussed out on me saying he wasn't in the mood to work out, what a bitch. Well when a group of group of fine ass ladies make their way in here I am not sending any his way. I started my warm ups first and then moved on to my regular reps. I was defiantly not the biggest guy out there but I still had some nice muscle definition.
The animals started laughing loudly at the stupid joke told by the biggest of the three. The laughing and guffaws continued for a few more minutes before I had enough. I stood up from the machine I was sitting on and made my over to them in long strides.
"We humans are nice enough let you play with our toys but you should know your place have respect for the ones granting you this." I pushed my glasses higher up the bridge of my nose.
They looked at me then at one another before they started laughing uncontrollably. The tiger faunus who I guessed to be the leader of this little pack poked me in the shoulder, he was going to say something snarky before I pinned his arm behind his back and pushed him into the nearest rack of weights.
"You bitches want to try your luck in the pits?" I snarled, the other two helped their leader up off the ground; all three of them were glaring at me.
"Three vs one? I always knew humans were stupid but come on!" The leader did not look happy at all. Good, fuck him.
"Two vs three" a voice said behind me.
I spared a glance behind me a very built man with a prominent scar on the side of his neck. This fucker looked bad to the bone.
"One more makes no difference!" The leader and his lackeys shoved past me to make their way to the sparing areas. I turned to find that the man was already making his way there as well; not even giving me a second look…..Asshole.

We need to give this stupid lesbian a curfew or at least a tracking device! A collar would work great! I would name her lezzy with 'Property of the Offensive Vale Army, please call this number if lost' underneath along with a note that she had all of her vaccinations.
She was probably at some gay bar having the time of her life, or being tortured by some hostile terrorist group were information. Preferably the first one, she might even bring back some friends. Who was I kidding the only romantic interest I had ever heard Four of having was that chick Five told him that he saw with her at the shooting range back at home base.
Four was in a word 'Frigid'.
I shook my head and ran his fingers through my hair. She probably just ran into some small complications, nothing she can't handle. It still pissed off that she couldn't at least inform them somehow! It was driving me nuts; I haven't been able to bother her in ten whole hours! I need my fix!
A group of giggling girls passed by me giving me flirtatious grins. I knew something was wrong with me when the best I could give them was a wave.
"You're a sad fucking sight; if you want I can help you jump out the window."
"Oh uncle how could you be of any help in that" I deadpanned
"Well, I can pump you up or even give you a little push to help get you going." I will never understand Lt's hate for me. I mean look at me! How could you hate this?!
"Did you come out here to try and cheer me up?" I grinned at him
The answer was immediate "Fuck no; I came to bring your sorry asses back to the room. Where is Biggs by the way?
Biggs….Ohhh yeah
[Patch, Two]
My partner dropped to one knee and grabbed the hand of the faunus behind him and threw him over his shoulder slamming him into the ground. The faunus didn't have time to do anything before he started wailing on his face. My single opponent lay on the ground groaning while one of his was unmoving.
The faunus soon stopped resisting signally he too had slipped into unconsciousness. The burly man stood and let out a sigh before cracking his neck "What branch are you in?"
I was taken aback "I'm not in the military."
He turned those cold eyes on me and took a step into my comfort zone "Rule number one, don't fucking lie to me. I recognize those moves; we took the same basic training. With the secrecy I'd say you were in a special ops group and the way you instinctively hover your hand behind your hip like your reaching for a machete that's not there I'd wager you were a headhunter."
"What do you want?" If this guy was trying to mind fuck me he was doing a great job.
"Nothing yet."
"You're not making any fucking sense!" I took a few steps away from him and stood in a defensive stance.
"Easy, I'm not your enemy" he took a look at the faunus that was still almost conscious with no emotion. He stepped on its face and rubbed his boot smearing some kind of substance on him. "I stepped in some animal shit on my way here, clean up after yourself." he laughed
Even I cracked a smile at that.
He locked eyes with me "Ever heard of the Black Fist boy?"
I tensed up.
"I'll take that as a yes." He smiled "All I want Corporal is to help you find the man you are looking for."
This encounter wasn't chance "What do you have to gain from this?"
"A very important White Fang official dead and a possibly great ally" He finished wiping the shit of his boot and turned back to me. "I don't need an answer from you yet, I'll find you when I'm ready for it."
He left without another word.
"Fuck…."

Apparently it was the gay bar. Four lazily made her way down the street looking very disheveled, her suit was and tie was all messed up, she had dark circles under her eyes. She apparently wasn't paying attention either as she ran right into the light post.
Must have been one hell of a party….
AN: CC-2224 Commander Cody owns the Black Fist hate group and the character who appeared in the gym. Again if you jerk wads haven't already go an read his fic "From Hunted To Hunter". Also if you don't start reviewing I'm going to start handing out free castrations.
