...I got nothing in the way of author notes...huh...-dances for your entertainment- NEW CHAPTER!
Tai new his team might react in some way...but the last thing he thought would happen would be getting violently shaken by a girl nearly a foot shorter then himself. Svetlana had he hands wrapped around his neck, having gotten the taller boy down to her height and was shaking him till he was dizzy, even Guinevere and Nirvana stayed out of this.
"Where have you been?!" Svetlana cried out, pausing only to get a groan from the boy before shaking him again. "Why did you not show up or visit? Here are your guns? Why are you dressed like this? THE FUCK WERE THOSE TENTACLES?!" She screamed at the boy, letting him go just for him to thud into the dirt. Before she could strangle the boy again, Guinevere picked her up, cradling her under her arm like a bag of potatoes.
"Ugh..." Tai groaned, his entire world spinning, even he was not immune to the anger of a woman.
"Svetlana, quit it." Guinevere frowned and ground her armored knuckles into the girls head, trying to get her to stop flailing, seems the knight had picked up some habits from her girlfriend.
"But...he..." Svetlana looked up at her taller girlfriend and went limp in her hold "Fiiiiiiine!" She wined, "But he is telling us when we get back, and the others will kick the shit out of him too."
Guinevere just sighed and grabbed her leader by the arm and hefted him up in one fluid movement, making Tai go wide eyed at the action. "Did you forget my semblance?" Guinevere smiled, she rarely used her semblance.
"Right." He said as she left him go once he was to his feet, the lanky male stretching to let his spine realign after Svetlana's attack. He made no move to pull his coat back up, leaving his torso open, the only covering being the tight fitting body suit, the material showing how leanly built he looked. "I also see you have all made improvements in some way too...Nirvana is more open to attack and Svetlana has learned to hold back some strength for non-lethal strikes."
Nirvana smiled under her gas mask and Svetlana laughed "I can't sit on the side lines during spars anymore, I need to fight too!" She rolled her shoulders and pulled her axe apart into its two smaller counterparts and slid them into her belt.
Guinevere picked up her weapons and placed them where they belonged and the complete Team TGSN made their way back to Beacon, and Tai had some serious explaining to do.
"Where have you been?!" Yang yelled at a groaning Tai, who was currently on the ground...what was with these 'Hello Gut Punches'?! Yang shook her hand a bit as his abdomen was a bit harder then she remember, at least he had been training.
A few feet away, someone bent down to pick up the mask that skid out of Tai's hand when Yang laid him out with a single punch. The figure looked it over with her gold feline eyes, tilting it this way and that. She glanced up to see her partner standing over the poor boy, the young leader of their Team trying to push her sister back. The only one that seemed to just be observing the scene other then herself was the Heiress of the SDC. The Heiress just sighed and shook her head, knowing far to well that yelling would not work on the blonde brute.
Even Team JNPR was a little hesitant to step in. Soon enough the situation was settled when Svetlana made a comical display of picking Yang up and slinging the brawler over her shoulder, nearly dragging the girl back to her own team do to her height.
Tai eventually got up and followed them to the only place that could contain all three teams in a civil environment, The Library.
Tai had slumped down in his chair as the rest gathered around the table. By this point Tai had pulled his coat back up and closed it, but he noticed a certain cat was still inspecting the mask he had dropped...seems she was suspicious with him having another mask. His eyes then went wide as three sets of hands slammed down on the table in front of him.
"Now tell us!" Svetlana yelled.
"Where have you been?" Yang joined in.
"Yeah!" Nora added to the end, giving a comical end to the entire question asking.
Tai just leaned back in his chair and sighed. "Geez, no hellos or anything?" He only got glares from the two girls, Nora having taken her seat. "Fine...ask what you want."
"Where have you been?" Svetlana asked, being more civil even if she was sitting on the table right in front of Tai, standing guard as if Tai would bolt at his first chance.
"Tai tilted his head back "Training, very intense training." He sighed and rubbed his head.
"Why?"
Tai stretched again. "The shock I had during the tournament was bad enough to re-seal my aura it seems, had it unlocked and had to train it a bit."
"Where are your guns?" Svetlana interjected this time.
"In my locker, It would of given me away if I used them against you."
"What is with the outfit?" Yang took her turn, it seemed like everyone else was ok with just being present.
"What, it is comfortable and easy to fight in." He frowned and pulled at his coat.
"And the mask?" Blake asked this time, holding up the beaked mask.
"I made it myself, it is nothing fancy, just liked the design and it tied in with my new clothes." He made no move to get it back.
"What about that Tentacle blade thing?!" Svetlana leaned in close, glaring into his eyes.
"The what?" even Yang was caught off guard.
Tai let out a groan and undid his coat again, only for a single tendril to burst from his back, the blackish red limb moving like a fluid as it lazily whipped back and forth behind him.
"The hell is that?" Yang blinked.
"How are you doing that?" Weiss frowned.
"I have watched enough.." Nora Started.
"NORA!" The rest of Team JNPR yelled.
Tai just chuckled and let the Tendril hang over in front of him, his eyes focused on the end of it as it turned into more blade like structure. "Believe it or not...this is my semblance."
"Bullshit, it was that zappy stuff!" Yang called out.
"It was...not anymore though." Tai frowned "no idea why though...but this has been serving me a bit better, though for only having it for about a month and a half...I need to use it more" He yawned and the tendril slunk into his body again. "Kinda hurts to bring it out too."
"Who have you been training with?" Svetlana asked, only for Tai to put up his hand "Can we continue tomorrow?" He pointed at the setting sun outside. "I have not had much time to sleep over out break, and a day to actually sleep in would be nice..since the first years are going through initiation tomorrow." Before anyone could deny him, he was up and gone, heading back to his dorm for a good nights sleep, remember the last few months...and cringed a bit "If they new how brutal those two were." He sighed, slinking off to his room and nice warm bed.
Next chapter is a flashback of Tai's summer, so have fun with that...not much else to say so...
Till next time, Arrix out.
