CH 7: Best Day Ever?
After waking up in the library i finish what i was working on and head back to the dorm. When i get there everyone is gone except for Ruby who is using Weiss' binder for something but I'm not gonna question it. I go to get a energy drink from my stash i have hidden of them but they're gone.
"Ruby, did you take my energy drinks cause they are gone again?" I asked but she doesn't answer me just runs out the door. "I'll take that as a yes, I really need a better place to hide them," I sigh as i start walking to the cafeteria. Hopefully Blake actually slept last night but knowing her she probably didn't. I arrive at the cafeteria and its lunch so i slept longer than i wanted to. I see the rest of my team expect for Ruby. I get my Food and sit down between Weiss and Blake.
"Luke where were you this morning?" Weiss asked generally concerned for me. I wonder if she told JNPR yet. blake also looked like she was worried but something else was bothering her pretty sure it had to do with Adam if thats the drawing she had. Meanwhile Yang was catching food thrown by Nora at her.
"I was in the library studying and fell asleep in there" I said "I needed to remember more from ports classes mainly grimm weak points" I lied I was actually looking for anymore recent White Fang attacks but there was none in weeks. "Also guys has anyone seen my weapons"
"About that they kinda broke during our fight" Yang pointed out. I was wondering if that's what happened to them but I had no clue.
"Ahh ok I needed to ones anyways I got tired of fighting close quarters anyways," I said "I have no idea what my new ones are gonna be though,"
"Did someone say new weapon?" Asked Ruby coming out of thin air "anyways four score and seventeen minutes ago I had a dream that we would make today the best day ever since the semester starts back up tomorrow," she slams the binder down on the table.
"Is that my binder" Weiss asked sounding annoyed. I'm gonna have to ask what that binder was for later.
"I'm not a crook" Ruby says. "According to how you steal my energy drinks and Weiss' binder clearly you are" I retorted
"Well in this binder I have a bunch of team activities we can do to bond more, also we can start off our semester with a bang," she said. I just want alone time with Blake because we haven't really been away from our team yet.
"I always start mine off with a Yang," Yang said trying to be funny. i slam my head on the table in annoyance.
"I'm gonna have to pass on the activities i'm not a social person" said Blake thank you for trying to get us out of this. I really just want to sleep and force you to sleep.
"I think we should all do it it will really help-" weiss start as to say as she gets hit with a pie thrown by Nora. She then grabs my pizza and throws it like a frisbee at Nora but it hits Jaune.
"OH COME ON I WAS ABOUT TO EAT THAT," I yell and then I get hit with a pie. "Oh it's on now" then I flip the entire table at team JNPR hitting them with almost everything and somehow I send Jaune flying at a window. That's when all hell breaks loose and team JNPR end up on top of a fort of tables.
"I'm queen of the castle" sang Nora. Ok she is really obsessed with that and this is like tenth time she has sang that.
"Justice will be swift, justice will be painful it will be delicious" Ruby shouts as we charge team JNPR. They throw like 70 watermelons at us. They come flying in but Yang and Blake destroy them with makeshift weapons out of turkeys and baguettes.
Yang starts fighting Ren while Blake is against Pyrrha but Blake eventually has her baguettes break and gets hit by Pyrrha's chucked by a runs in and uses a ketchup bottle as ice dust to make Ren slip. Nora charges in and makes a watermelon war hammer. Ruby rides a lunch tray down the tables like a skateboard and sending food flying at them.
Yang punches Ren through the pile of tables which causes Nora to send yang through the roof. Blake starts using sausage links as a ribbon to fight Nora which breaks her hammer so nora starts throwing soda cans. I'm busy trying to keep Pyrrha down which is working until I kick her back toward all the soda cans. Which she in turn launched them all at us with her semblance. Meanwhile Weiss got sent flying into a support column. Ruby got really and I mean really worried and caught her.
"Weiss no don't leave me" Ruby shouted. After Ruby sat Weiss down she go into a sprinter's stance and took off with her semblance collecting all the food and plates behind her. She eventually ran so fast she turned into a corkscrew and rand between team JNPR and caught them as well. Then she sent them flying into a wall where the got covered by food.
"Children please don't play with your food" growled Mrs. Goodwitch. Right as she said that Yang fell back through the ceiling and landed on me.
"Oww Yang please get up kinda dying here" I barely get out before Blake pulls her off of me "Thanks Blake now I can breathe"
"No problem we should probably go to the library I guess" She said. We all agreed and headed there where Blake and I tried to do research but we got forced to play a card game. Well I didn't get forced I just sat and watched Blake try to play. Weiss attacked her own troops a lot and Ruby fell for a trap card. Blake eventually gave up and left with me back to the room
I got a text from a scroll I had no idea it belonged to. All it said was "is this the mimic". I haven't seen or heard that name in years when referring to me. I had two ideas of who it could be from my hitman years while trying to pay for my apartment while attending Signal.
"Blake I'll be right back I have a phone call to make" I say as I release her from my hug "I'll be back in like five minutes,".
"Alright if you go to the cafeteria bring me back some tuna please," she says and I can't help but chuckle. Which causes her to throw a book at me.
"Geez calm down I'll get it," I say as I duck out the door. She can really throw a book hard. I make my way down to the courtyard and call that scroll.
"Okay listen I don't know who you are or I don't remember but if you want to talk to me meet me in Vale this weekend" I say as I hang up. I head to the cafeteria to get Blake her tuna. When I come back to our room all I can see is Blake about to leave but Weiss balanced on two legs of a chair pointing at her.
"Umm did I miss something?" I asked confused as I hand Blake her tuna. I seriously don't understand my team sometimes.
"Why are you guys hiding something you promised to tell us if something was wrong," Weiss said "You guys have been even more moody and antisocial lately, I get it's kinda your thing but this isn't normal"
"You guys are still worried about Torchwick and the White fang aren't you?" Yang asked "Ozpin said the police and professional hunters will take care of it until we are ready"
"What if we are never ready it not like our enemies will wait until graduation day" Blake shouted.
"I'm gonna have to agree with that it's never like the White Fang to wait on a target I know from when they tried to chase me down" I said. This caused Blake to cringe because she was one of the ones chasing me. "We could go sneak into a meeting but the next one is tomorrow night"
"How do you know when the next meeting is?" asked Weiss "I have a source still in the White Fang giving me info" I said
"That makes senses seeing as how you had a lot of friends in there even before you left, of course someone would still tell you what's going on in there" said Blake.
"We should at least plan for what to do tomorrow like who goes where and the teams for this I could get sun and his friend neptune to help if you guys want" they all agreed and after we decided teams we went to bed waiting for tomorrow night.
I woke up the next morning earlier the the rest of my team and left a note saying went to vale to get supplies for my new weapon. I was also heading there to see who tried to contact me. I decided my new weapon would be a claymore longsword that changes into an assault rifle as well as two cutlasses.
After getting my new weapon parts I got the feeling I was being followed. So my first reaction is head into an alley and go invisible and hope I see who it is. The person who enter it after me is one of the people who I worked with in my time as a hitman they were know as "the mute" thats only because she wouldn't talk to anyone expect me really.
"What do you want?" I asked as I went back to normal. She just laughed "You we're the one who got contact with me yesterday I take it?"
"Yep I was wondering how you were doing since you stopped taking jobs?" She asked. She always looked out for me on jobs so guess she saw me as a best friend.
"I've been good I got into beacon if you wanted in I could forge transcripts for you unless you are working for someone" I said
"You would do that for me that's really nice but I don't think my new boss would be really happy with that" she said and all I can think is new boss what the hell happened the the old one.
"Wait new boss who is it?" I asked really confused "what do they have you doing,"
"They just have me protecting them and it's Torchwick" as she says this my fists clench.
"You mean the asshole using White Fang to steal all the dust in Vale," I growl she just nods her head "Why the hell are you working for the sleazebag,"
"It's the only job I could get but if you could get me into beacon I might be able to leave" she said. I nodded and said "I'll see what I can do it was nice to see you again" I hug her and we part ways. I'm gonna need to forge a transfer application and give it to Ozpin shouldn't be too seeing as how Jaune did it.
I make my way back to the dorm and notice everyone was gone so I decided to take a nap. That plan got ruined cause as soon as I started to drift off into sleep Yang came into the room.
"Hey Luke what took you so long in Vale?" She questioned me.
"Nothing much just saw an old friend" I said "Hey Yang you wanna pull a prank on our team," she nodded with an evil smirk "Ok im gonna use my semblance to make us invisible and we act like ghosts in the room,"
"Luke you evil genius that brilliant" she says and I take a bow."Okay come here cause I need to put my hand on your shoulder to at least activate it," right as I finish that Ruby and Weiss enter the room. I tell Yang to wait as I move over to the bathroom door and direct her to move to the dorm room door. I open the door slowly and slam it as fast as I can then yang does the same thing.
Ruby and Weiss freak out better I expected Weiss falls out of her chair and Ruby falls off her bunk. At this point Yang and I are on the ground laughing so hard.I deactivate my semblance and Yang and I just can't stop laughing. Then Blake finally comes back to the room and get really confused as to why everyone was on the ground.
"What happened here and why wasn't I in on it?" She asked. I felt kinda bad for leaving her out but there's always next time.
"Yang and I scared Ruby and Weiss half to die thinking there was a ghost in the room," I got out while still on the ground laughing.
"How did you even manage that?" Weiss asked
"I'm able to let other people also use my semblance if I touch them but it's only for a short time," I explained "It's only useful for scaring people though,"
"Okay enough with making us crap our pants can we get ready for tonight?" Ruby asked
"Yeah sure I'm gonna go get changed someone wanna get in contact with Sun to tell him to get ready" I said. "Since I used to be in the White Fang they probably remember what I look like so I'm gonna have to change that and my clothes"
I changed out of my normal over coat put on a black t shirt, put on black jeans, and got my red sneakers. Instead of my normal red eyes and gray hair I went with green eyes and dirty blonde hair.
"Why did you guys all change outfits when it's me,Blake and Sun doing the spy mission?" I asked.
"Cause when else are we gonna get to use these outfits," Yang said. I hate when she makes sense that doesn't relate to the question.
"Touche," I said that caused her to fist pump in victory. "But Yang don't blow up the bar again without me this time"
"IT WAS ONE TIME," She yelled.
"Yeah but I like explosions" I said and got a chuckle out of everyone expect Weiss who was dumbfounded at my immaturity.
"I can see how I'm the older one" she said
"We have no proof of that Weiss" I retorted. She sunk back into her bed dejectedly. "Okay so everyone remembers what their job is tonight right?"
"Me, Blake, and Sun or going to the white fang meeting, Weiss and Ruby you are to get info on any recent Schnee shipments stolen, and Yang, you and Neptune are to shake down Junior for info on why his men work for Roman," I said "Everyone got that good let's go" and with that we went to our different jobs. We were in for one hell of a shocking night as it turned out
the opening intro is so good. What other weapon is Qrow's scythe. also we finally get to see Summer's face and is someone gonna die in this season. these are all questions running through my head
