Chapter 14: Sky Diving

Days?: World of Sand Part 2

"Well, shit. It really is Cinder Fall. Those video didn't do justice on her looks." I mumble to myself while carefully look at her. A few seconds later, I was on Fenrir and putting on my goggle, then inject my aura into Fenrir to kick start the engine. "Crow! Open the lower deck!" I shout at Crow, a second later, the lower deck is open. "Cinder better be thanking me, once I save her." I mumble to myself and hope I don't get my ass on fire.

I felt a smirk forming on my face and drive Fenrir out the lower deck, but something happens. For some reason, a metal crate appears in front of me, just when Fenrir drives off the hatch. I crash into the metal crate, throwing me off of Fenrir and send me skydiving with the Fenrir left behind. "So not cooooooool!" I shout in rage before Calm Mind took effect.

"Damn it. I could just tell my little sister is laughing at me right now. This so not cool. No wonder my little sister keeps laughing at me. I need to be a cool older brother, then...then maybe my little sister will finally look up to me like in the past. But, first. I need to survive this." I thought out loud while ignoring the fighter ravens looking at me like I'm crazy for talking to myself.

"Now, where was I? Oh! Right, AAAAAAAAAHHHH!" I thought out loud, then remember what I was during a few minutes ago and shout my battle cry. I draw out Fusion Swords from the harness and thrust it in front of me, causing me to fall down from the sky even faster than before. "AAAAAHHHHHH! UGH! Damn! Bug in my eye! So not cool!" I stop my battle cry, when an insect got in my left eye while I was still falling.

"Man, now I wish I didn't take off my goggle a few minutes ago. Nasty. So not cool. I better put my-and it's gone..." I said to myself, as I wipe the bug off my eye, making me feel gross out from feeling the blood, then I took out my goggle, but it slip out of my hand, causing me to lose the sight of it. "Welp, no crying over spill milk. Now, how long-SHIT!" I mumble to myself and started thinking how long it will take me to finally reach the ground, when I discover I was just a few meters away from the salamander's below me.

Thanks to Combat Protocol, I was able to calmly analyze the situation to take the most optimal action. Once my Fusion Swords rams straight through the salamander's head. I place my left hand over the side of Fusion Swords and use my semblance to release Canaan from its place.

I use a mental program to launch Canaan at the salamander. That was about to take a bite at Cinder, who was surprised to see me, causing her to lost focus of her surrounding for a few seconds, enough time for one of the salamanders to take action.

I raise Strength-type Rise: Control 30% and Strength 10%, and kill the salamander on the ground with a stomp to its head. Pulling Fusion Swords out of the ground while stretching out my left hand towards Canaan, where the mental program take effect as Canaan fly back into my outstretched left hand.

I throw a back kick at the salamander trying to attack me from behind, causing it to crash into the other salamanders. As I put Canaan back into the Fusion Swords and start killing salamanders around me. With a single swing of my Fusion Swords. I have already killed 2 salamanders, their heads cut in halves before either of them could do anything.

"You alright? No injuries?" I ask Cinder, after I jump over a salamander, who's head is cut off by my Fusion Swords and land next to Cinder. That's fighting off two salamanders, then kill one of the salamanders, with a cut it left front leg, causing its balance to throw off, where Cinder took advantage of. As she kick the grimm's jaw, throwing the grimm in the air to be used as a shield against the other salamander's fireball.

"Are you crazy?!" Cinder shout at me while ignoring my questions, as she kills off another salamanders. "What I do?!" I shout back, as I did a quick spin to add in extra speed to cut multiple salamanders' necks before they could spit fire. "You just fell from the sky and fighting off a pack of grimm like you do this every day! And you have the nerve to ask me 'What I do'?!" Cinder scream at me, as she fires off another fire blade around her, burning a few grimm to death.

"Well, I'm heading towards Vacuo, but found you out here alone, facing off against pack of grimm. So I decided to help out." I said to Cinder, who look at me as if I was crazy. I spin Fusion Swords to my right, blocking a fireball from hitting me. Sending aura to my Fusion Swords, causing it to glow a little green and red. Then, I thrust my Fusion Swords in the salamander's direction, firing off a fire spear.

Activating my Burst Stream while weaving around the salamanders. "Melchsee's Lance. Target: Grimm Salamanders. Avoid: Everything else." I whisper my mental save program. I point my left palm at one of the grimm, where a small black sphere appears in front of my left palm and fire itself. Moving at extreme speed, leaving a trail of itself along its path that can be used to slice enemy that dare to touch the trail.

I quickly rush towards Cinder, picking her up and putting her over my shoulder while running away from the area. "Hey! What...are...you...doing..." Cinder shout at me in the beginning, but started to whisper in shock, as she watches Melchsee's Lance piercing multiple salamanders and using the trail to cut off any escape routes.

After the black sphere pierce the 5th salamander. The trail started moving to save up the remaining Psi energy, causing the trail to slice through the remaining grimm easily. Now, with all the grimm in the area killed off, the Melchsee's Lance stop moving as it breaks down. Disappearing from the world as if it never existed.

Once I noticed the Melchsee's Lance is gone. I gently put down the shocked Cinder, who's looking at the same spot where the pack of grimm used to be. I see in Cinder's eyes that she wanted to ask me many questions about what just happen, but kept the questions to herself. Afraid that I would leave her behind because she tried to know something she has no right to know.

"WHAT IN OUM IS THAT?!" Cinder shout in surprise, when Crow land in front of us and Cinder look like she about to run, but held her ground. I don't blame her, since Crow is really big and all Crow need to do is fly a little in the air, then drop itself on you, crushing you under its butt.

"Don't worry. That fatty Crow. Hey! You know it true! Now, open up the lower deck!" I try to get Cinder to calm down while introducing Crow to her, then Crow growl at me. This causes me to shout at Crow, because it's true, then tell Crow to open the lower deck for me and Cinder to enter.

As Cinder and I enter the lower deck. I walk next to the metal crate that trip me if it weren't filled with Frost. I would of smash it to pieces. Instead, I just push it back to the side and this time. I made sure to lock the metal crate in place. 'Stupid minions can't even remember to lock it in place.' I growl inward, then take a seat in front of Cinder, who look at me with a wry look.

(Cinder's POV)

I didn't know what to do. The option to ask the person to drop me off somewhere once we arrive at Vacuo was out, since it looks like the person in front of her doesn't look like he has control over Crow. I was still baffled to find out that Crow is a cyborg. At least, I'm happy that I won't have to walk back to Vacuo. 'After all, I don't have any food on me.'

While I was thinking, I was given some kind of food that shape;s of a rectangle, causing me to look at the person. After considering it for a moment, I accept it and gave him a nod of thanks. Once I take a bite of the weird food, it surprised me, when it tastes like honey. As honey is very rare in Vacuo Kingdom. I started to wonder who this person is and why he decided to come to Vacuo, not that I would pry into his business. But, I'm glad he shows up to help me kill the pack of grimm.

I wonder if he is selling Dust as I use up my supply of Dust. 'Soon...I will get you guys back for betraying me...' I thought darkly, then the thought disappears once I take the next bite. I was about to reach for another honey bar, but stop and look at the person in front of me. I see him giving me a permission to take another one when he nodded at me. "Thank you." I mumble to him, but I could tell he heard me.

(Yuuma's POV)

Once I gave my nod to approve of her to take more ration bars. I could tell she must be hungry by now with all that happen today. "Excuse me, if I may ask, but who are you?" Cinder asks me, once she finish her 2nd ration bar. I debate if I should tell her my real name or not.

"Hmm, I will be honest with you. I don't trust you right now. So I will just give you my first name while the rest of name will be kept in secret. You may call me Yuuma, when it's just us two alone. But, in public and outside this room. You will call me Karasume." I gave Cinder my first name.

Cinder look like she wanted to ask me the reason why I told her my real first name and making her call me by my alias in a public area. From the look on her face, she was really debating to ask or not.

'I need to hurry up and sell these Frost to the people in Vacuo.' I thought to myself, as I glance at the metal box. Since I don't want to leave my cute little sister alone by herself, even if Neo is there with her. Who knows what kind of weird people would try to kidnap my dear sweet Tsurara. I narrow my eyes by the thoughts of anyone trying to touch her.

'If they can't pay for it with lien. Then I shall steal their the blueprints, information, and even their survival knowledge within the deep of their minds .' I though in greed as the thoughts of all the projects my little sister could do.

"Uh...I guess all of us have a secret..." Cinder mumble to herself quietly, "Well, it's nice to meet you. I'm Cinder Fall, even if you didn't give me your full name. I'm thankful of you for saving me and I wish to ask a favor from you if it's not too much trouble for you that is." Cinder said to me, as she asks me a favor.
