No one was surprised to see Yang Xiao Long storming her way down the halls of Beacon like a mad woman with eyes as red as blood. What was surprising however was to see not only Nora Valkyrie and Lie Ren but Coco Adel following behind her.
What some people didn't know was that during their time at Beacon teams JNPR and RWBY had both become quite close creating their own small family and Coco owed Ruby for helping Velvet when she had suffered a harsher bullying than normal so when the group had heard about what happened to Blake and Ruby earlier that day there was no power in Remnant that could have stopped these four from finding team CRDL.
As the four entered one of Beacons courtyards they spotted team CRDL torturing some poor faunus student.
Yang turned towards the pink powerhouse as they started walking towards their targets.
"Cardin's mine" she said barely louder than a growl. Anger flowing freely through her actions.
"break his legs" Nora replied with a large grin on her face.
"Come on Blondie at least let me have one hit." Coco teased, still wanting to teach Cardin a lesson.
"Cardin you're a dead man" Yang screamed as she charged at Cardin and his lackeys.
Before team CRDL could react, Yang punched Cardin squarely in the nose breaking it instantly. Cardin dropped to the ground screaming.
"you bitch you broke my nose". Cardin roared, still clinging to his nose.
During the commotion the remaining members of the group were charged by the remaining members of CRDL.
After the fight was finally over team CRDL looked more like a pile of mush than the huntsmen in training they were suppose to be. Sky had two broken legs courtesy of Nora, Dove had decided Ren would be an easy fight since he seemed so quiet had charged him. Within the first strike of the fight Ren, using his aura to strengthen the blow, had shattered Doves arm and Coco had beaten Russell up pretty badly, knocking him out in one hit of her handbag. Cardin however was the worst out of his team. Yang had broken multiple bones during the fight along with a scarily powerful kick to the groin in the name of defending Blake's honour. The group started heading back towards their dorm rooms with sobs, groans and whimpering behind them.
Blake slowly sat up after hearing whimpers from across the room. Realising the only other person in the dorm was Ruby, Blake walked over to Ruby's bunk only to find Ruby sat in the back corner curled into a ball.
"Ruby what's wrong?" Blake asked as she slowly reached towards the hooded girl.
Ruby flinched from the contact of Blake's hand and seemed to curl in further causing Blake to worry. She jumped up onto Ruby's death trap they called a bunk and slowly wrapped her arms around her in a hug.
"i'm sorry Blake. If you didn't have to defend me and Velvet then Cardin wouldn't have taken your bow." Ruby whispered barely loud enough for Blake to hear.
"Ruby it's not your fault. You didn't cause this. Now lay down this can't be comfortable for your ribs." Blake said, trying to reassure her team leader.
Ruby slowly uncurled from her ball and did as Blake instructed while Blake jumped down from the bunk and walked into the bathroom. After a few moments Blake came back with an ice pack in hand and quickly jumped back up onto the bed.
"This will probably sting a little." Blake said before carefully placing the ice pack on Ruby's bruised ribs which caused the small redhead to flinch.
"Sorry" Blake said quickly, worried she had caused more pain for Ruby.
"It's ok" Ruby replied, shooting a small smile at Blake to show she didn't do anything wrong.
The pair sat in silence for the next few minutes until Blake removed the ice pack.
"Looks like the swellings gone down a bit so it should be healed up before we leave for Patch." Blake said, happy to see the bruise was looking better.
"Thanks Blake. I'm sorry i couldn't stop Cardin." Ruby replied, still blaming herself for what happened.
"Ruby I don't blame you. Please don't blame yourself." Blake stated hoping to get through to the girl.
"Ok" Ruby said, a small smile gracing her face.
Blake could see that Ruby's smile was fake as it did not have any of the usual energy behind it nor did it seem to light up the room or cause Blake's heart to stop. Instead of mentioning it though, Blake decided to leave the subject alone for now, hoping Ruby would stop blaming herself in a couple days.
Across the school in Ozpin's office stood Yang, Nora, Ren and Coco along with an obviously unhappy Glynda Goodwitch and a stoic Ozpin.
Now I assume all of you can guess why you're here." Ozpin said before taking a swig of whatever was in his coffee mug.
"Probably cause Cardin's still breathing." Yang retorted, obviously still angry with Cardin as her eyes were still burning red.
"Miss Xiao Long you do realise you four put an entire team in the infirmary with multiple broken bones. This is not something to joke about." Professor Goodwitch said in her normal stern tone.
"Who said I was joking." Yang replied, staring directly at the Professor.
"Now now I think there has been enough violence for one day. Now why don't you all tell me why you decided to put team CRDL in the infirmary." Ozpin said, still as calm as ever even with Yang and Glynda shooting daggers at each other. "Now then Miss Valkyrie?" Ozpin asked, looking at the pink warrior before him.
"They hurt my family. I broke their legs." Nora replied without a hint of worry in her voice.
"Your family?" Ozpin asked, curious as to what Nora was referring to.
"What Nora means is that we never had a family growing up in the orphanage it had always just been myself and Nora. When we arrived here however the members of our team and team RWBY treated us like family and in doing so became the family we never had. I would do anything I could to help any member of team JNPR or RWBY as i'm sure all of them would do the same for me." Ren stated while Nora nodded along agreeing with everything Ren had said.
"I see. So I assume your reasons for attacking team CRDL are similar to Miss Valkyrie then." Ozpin said now staring directly at the gunner of team JNPR.
"Yes Sir." Ren said, still as stoic as Ozpin.
"Miss Adel?" Ozpin asked now facing the gunner and leader of team CFVY.
"He has insulted and injured my bunny multiple times and nothing was done by any of the staff. Then he assaulted the only student outside my team to help Velvet. He got what was coming." Coco stated without her usual sass.
"And Miss Xiao Long?" Ozpin asked as he turned towards the brawler.
"he hurt Rubes and called Blake a filthy animal. I will never let someone hurt or insult my family." Yang stated. The burning passion clearly visible in her eyes.
Ozpin say down behind his desk while drinking from his mug for a few moments before placing the mug down and standing.
"while I don't condone students attacking other students your reasons for the attack were noble. I can't let you all off the hook however so when you return from the break you will all have detention for two weeks." Ozpin said, still as calm and cool headed as ever.
"What about team CRDL's violence and racism Sir" Ren asked, quickly interrupting Yang from saying something.
"Normally I would suspend the team for that sort of behaviour however I believe you four have delivered a fair punishment. I will have a talk with team CRDL when they return after the break and they will be joining you for two weeks of detention. Miss Adel this was the first mention of team CRDL bullying your teammate. I would like you stay behind and inform both myself and Miss Goodwitch as to what has occurred the rest of you are dismissed." Ozpin replied before turning to face Coco as the other three huntsmen in training left Professor Ozpin's office and returned to their respective dorms.
Yay the Cardin gets beaten up chapter. I have a strong hatred for Cardin and until Roosterteeth release an episode where he finally gets what's coming to him i'll just have to write my own.
so I want tl apologise fr this chapter and chapter 6. These were the first two things I wrote so if they dont meet the normal standard im sorry.
Next chapter is the start of the team heading to Patch. It will be a couple of chapters before Weiss appears with them however.
Now for those who have no idea how schooling works is Aus. They would finish about the 15th of december so there will be two weeks before the new year's chapter and then all of January before they go back to Beacon meaning i will be writing a lot of happy fluffy times once we get past Ruby and Blake being clueless for each other.
If you enjoyed, hated, have constructive criticism or have a question please leave a review or pm me so I can make this story and any future stories I write better.
Thanks for reading.
