Let Me Know You (Bumble Bee: Part 1)
~Yang~
She was waiting there patiently; it was almost an hour past the time they were supposed to meet. Yang was getting nervous now, she was standing there in in her more…attractive, attire (*cough cough* her combat clothes) and was getting some disturbing looks from guys. She let out a small sigh and turned around thinking Blake stood her up when she heard someone call out to her. Yang turned back around to see a stunning sight.
Blake was now walking up to her with a special sense of beauty. Blake was wearing black skinny jeans that matched her black vest, purple combat boots, a white sleeveless blouse with a black detached sleeve on her left arm with black ribbons wrapped around both arms, and her infamous black bow.
"Damn, she's hot…"
Yang's mouth hung open and she decided to close it before she caught a fly. She then smirked and spoke in a jokingly manner. "You know, I was only joking when I said this was a date."
Blake rolled her eyes but kept a small smile on her lips. "Believe it or not, these are my casual clothes. Sorry to disappoint, but I'm not trying to impress."
Yang laughed out loud causing everyone around them to look at them oddly. "I was only teasing!"
"Damnit, I wanted her to be all like 'I wore this for you'…"
Blake went silent and Yang sighed. Yang then brought a smile on her face and spoke. "Come on, let's go eat somewhere."
…
Yang and Blake arrived at a restaurant called the White Rose Café. Yang was very surprised to find out her rival, Okami, worked there; in fact, Okami was their waiter. Okami and Blake would talk and laugh causing Yang to feel a bit left out. Finally, Yang couldn't take it anymore and blurted out what was on her mind with Okami still there.
"What is the deal between you two anyway?" Yang asked.
Okami and Blake looked at each other then back to Yang, but Yang couldn't help but notice the slight look of panic in their eyes.
"Please don't tell me they have feelings…"
"What do you mean?" Blake asked with a small smile that was totally fake.
"Why are you two so close to each other? I mean, Okami is a faunus and you are a human." Yang then turned to Okami and gave a slightly smug look. "You do realize that with you constantly near her makes Blake a target for bullying, right?"
"Just leave us alone for god's sake."
Okami's sky blue eyes narrowed as she leaned in towards Yang. "You should keep your nose out of other people's personal life you blonde bi-"
"Okami," Blake interrupted placing her hand on Okami's shoulder. "isn't it time for your shift to end?"
Okami looked at her watch and glared at Yang before turning back to Blake. "Yeah, I'll go ahead and help clean out the back and change back in my street clothes. Just give me 30 minuets and I'll meet you outside, Ok?"
"Sure, no problem." Blake said with a smile causing Okami to return one before getting back to work. Blake turned back to Yang with a serious look on her face once she knew Okami was out of ear shot.
Yang took a big gulp. "Maybe I shouldn't have said anything."
"So… You want to know more about me, why Okami and I are so friendly?" Blake asked crossing her arms over her chest.
Yang nodded and listened to her story.
Blake sighed before she began. "My parents died eight years ago, it was a robbery gone wrong and it took both of their lives. Because of where I lived, I was sent to the nearest orphanage where I met Okami. Okami was there ever since she was born when her parents abandoned her and had to put up with being harassed by kids and treated like shit by her 'mother' for eight years…"
Yang raised an eyebrow. "Why did they treat her like that?"
"Our 'mother' treated her so poorly because she was different from other faunus and kids harassed her because she was a huge push over." Blake said sounding sad. "The first day I got there I chased away some older boys who nearly beat her to death, for the following six months she followed me everywhere. During those months, I've tried to run away many times but Okami always stopped me and I hated her for it. She always said ,'It's too dangerous out there!'."
"To me it sounds like she didn't want you to abandon her as well." Yang said matter-of-factly.
Blake nodded. "But then one day, some man came to the orphanage and wanted to talk to Okami and Mei, our 'mother', told me to go outside. I was wandering around the streets for an hour when those older boys found me and started to beat me. I thought I was going to die, but then someone came to save me and I couldn't see who it was before I passed out. When I woke up, Okami was carrying me on her back and running down an ally with cop sirens not too far away. I asked why she was doing this and she looked at me and said, 'If I can't stop you from running away, then at least let me come with you and in turn I'll help you escape.'."
"So you both ran away together…" Yang said feeling sorry for the two.
"Actually, we didn't." Blake said surprising Yang. "I agreed and she smiled, but as soon as she turned the corner she threw me in a garbage bin and told me to meet her in Vale before she ran in the opposite direction and into a dead end leading the cops with her. Then I did just as she said, I met her in Vale six weeks later… She stole food and begged for money so we could survive on the streets, she even found an abandoned warehouse for us for shelter. A year later, the warehouse got demolished so she got a job at a boxing gym to buy a place for us, but it wasn't enough… Then one day she snuck off and went to an amateur boxing tournament where the prize was 5,000 lein."
"Let me guess, she won?" Yang said with a smug look.
"Wrong again." Blake said with a slight chuckle. "She lost in the first round, but after that day I've never seen her train so hard for anything. Six more months later, Okami won another boxing tournament with a 10,000 lein prize. With that money she bought us a crappy apartment and was able to buy some stuff for us to live in comfort. Then a year ago, Okami went to another tournament and was scouted by Ozpin. At first she refused, but then Ozpin offered for me to come to Beacon Academy with her and we decided it was best. And that's how we got here, and why Okami and I are so close."
Yang nodded, but she sensed that somewhere in that story she told a lie or was hiding something important. Blake looked out the window and quickly turned back to Yang. "I have to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back."
Before Yang can answer, Blake was gone and Okami soon took her spot.
"So what did she tell you?" Okami asked.
"That her parents died in a robbery and how she met you." Yang said angrily. For some reason she gets really pissed off when Okami is around. "But I feel like she lied somewhere to hide something, did she?"
"Maybe she did, maybe she didn't." Okami said while crossing her arms. "You're dumber than I thought if you thing I'll give you the answer."
Yang narrowed her eyes. "You're crueler then I thought, they should call you the Big Bad Wolf."
Okami shrugged her shoulders. "Hey, there is always a reason why people are 'bad'. But me and the Big Bad Wolf are different."
Yang raised an eyebrow. "How so?"
"The Big Bad Wolf lies and tricks people for selfish reasons." Okami said flatly. "I only do it for all the right reasons."
Yang didn't understand why Okami was telling her all of this. "Why are you even talking to me?"
"Because Blake is important to me…" Okami said in a soft tone before it turned angry. "And you are my biggest enemy, which is why I wanted to tell you something."
Yang gulped. "And what is that?"
Okami leaned over the table and whispered harshly in her ear. "If I find you to be a threat I won't hesitate to kill you, and if you EVER hurt her… I will personally escort you to the gates of Hell and you won't live to tell the tale."
Yang nodded in understanding as Okami sat back down in her seat. Okami then looked out the window before she cussed and ran out the door. Yang finally looked to see what was happening and ran out the door.
Blake was being attacked.
