Chapter - III - Shock
She starts to pick them up. "I've missed you my friends" Blake said with a smile. Without a second thought she hurls one across the room towards the group. It soars through the air. As it gets closer Blake yells "Begin!" and Yang jumps into the air so fast that Nora had a confused look on her face. She grabs the can an falls right back down to her seat. She smiles, "Yes! Your turn Weiss." Yang said. As soon as she says that Blake hurls another across the air. Weiss jumps just as fast into the air an grabs it. She falls to her seat with a smile. "Awesome! Nora you better be quick" Weiss says as another bottle is flying towards Nora and smacks her right in her head, and with a loud bang she falls to the floor. "Ow that really hurt." She said. The girls giggle as Yang helps her off the floor, then another bottle flies right at Yang but she catches it so fast that she gets Nora back in her seat and hands her the drink with a smile. She returns to her chair as Blake returns with her drink and one for Doctor Batholomew. "So how have you all been? Meet any new people? " the Doc said. "Well Blake and I have been traveling ever since the war. Mostly warm and beautiful places." Yang said with a big smile. "Ya it's been fun traveling. I hope to get on the road again soon." Blake said as she grabbed Yangs hand beneath the table. "That sounds like a blast. I'm happy to hear you two are having fun." The Doc said. "How about you Weiss?" Nora said with a very curious look on her face. "Well I went on a trip for a few years to train myself to become better each day, and when I came back I took over the SDC mainly because my father became ill." She said.
"I miss Ruby allot. No one has seen her in 10 years." Yang said in a sad tone as she looked down. "Hey cheer up. Remember she promised she would show up." Weiss said. "Ya maybe you're right. Lets go check out the rest of the city and see what's changed." Yang replied. "Ya sure I guess." Blake said with an unmotivated tone. As the girls and the Doctor get up to throw their empty bottles away and head towards the door it opens to the sight of two very familiar faces and one new face. "Wow you all look different. Where are you off to in such a hurry?" Pyrrha Nikos said with a warm smile and a small head tilt to the right as she looked at everyone. "We were about to head out and paint the town, now that you two arrived we only have one more person left." Yang said. "Actually we are still missing Lie, Adam and the whole SSSN team and of course Ruby who needs to seriously hurry up." Blake said in a wishful tone. "Oh and who is the little one?" Weiss said with the most excited voice ever and half smile. "This is our daughter Juvia. She will be 10 in a few weeks. Say hi Juvia." Jaune said as everyone waited to hear her say hi. "H-h-hi" Juvia said in such a shy and quiet voice with a small wave. Everyone smiled and laughed and adored Juvia. "Awe she's sooo cute!" Yang said. Everyone looked at her with confusion on their faces. "What? You think because I'm such a beast that I can't love kids? I thought you all knew me better then that, tisk tisk tisk." She says looking at everyone with a grin on her face. "So have you guys eaten yet?" Nora asked. "Actually ya we had a ling trip with very little stops. Want to stay and eat hun?" Jaune asked Pyrrha. "Ya, I'm sure Juvia is hungry as well, aren't you sweet heart?" She asked Juvia. "Do they have hot dogs?" Juvia asked. "I'm sure they do." Pyrrha answered.
They turn around and walk towards the counter to stand in line to get food for the second time today. As they are about to get in line they get a slight chill. They stop and look at each other. They all turn around slowly and carefully. It seems like no one else notices it. A shake hits the ground. Yang shoves her hands forward with a cocking sound that echoed through the lunchroom. The room gets quiet, confusion and fear fill the room. "What's going on mommy?" Juvia asks looking up at Pyrrha. She sees fear on her face but not the kind of fear that normal people have, like the fear of who is going to get hurt rather than what's about to happen. Weiss reaches for her Rapier, Blake gets ready as well. "Jaune get Juvia to safety NOW!" Pyrrha barks at Jaune. He doesn't waste a second to question her. He picks Juvia up into his arms and runs to the back of the room. "Juvia honey stay here, be still and be quiet alright?" Jaune asked her. "Yes daddy, are you and mommy alright?" Juvia asked with confusion all over her face. "Just stay here alright. We will be right back I promise." He replied. He ran back to the ground grabbed his katana and got ready. A second shake hit the ground but this one stronger then the one before. Silence...BOOM! An explosion hits the front part of the room. Smoke fills the room along with screaming. A shadow appears in the midst of the smoke. It clears, a dark figure wearing a black cloak with a red lined hood. It wields a silver sword with a red aura surrounding it. The smoke completely clears and it raises its arms to the hood, lowers it. Gasps fill the air as its face is now in full view of everyone to see. A Grimm head on a human body wielding a silver sword with a red aura. It lets out a small groan followed by three words. "WHERE IS RUBY"
