But as she began walking she could hear laughter coming from behind. She looked behind her to find that she was surrounded by around 10 maybe 15 bandits. "Is this everyone?" Yang asked the group.
"Yes, little lady. This is it. Well, unless you want us to count the rest of the camp back that way." One of the bandits responded as he pointed in the direction Aodh had instructed her to go in.
"That way?" Yang asks as she pointed in the same direction.
"As I said. Yes, that way." The bandit groaned back in annoyance.
"Good to know. Thanks." Yang smiled as she responded back before bringing her left hand up to her lips and whistling.
In a flash of light a figure appeared beside Yang. "Well if it ins't the old duck tape patrol."
Suddenly there eyes all went wide they recognized the voice. "Oh shit."
"Yeah... That's right... Now as some of you know i'm Raven's nephew." Aodh calmly spoke before he turned and pointed towards Yang. "Well I'd like you to meet her daughter."
As if death was starring them all in the face each bandit lost the powers in there legs as well as the color in their faces. "We're dead."
Volume 5: Chapter 2: A Family Reunion
As Yang and Aodh slowly walked through the camp they were escorted by a few bruised and beaten bandits. Yang started to get a little nervous when she noticed other bandits lining up to form a path in front of them. These ones looked a lot more dangerous than the ones they had run into before.
"Take it easy Yang." Aodh softly spoke to her as he tried to calm her down. She looked over at him and seen the stern look on his face as they continue'd walking.
"Easy for you to say." Yang mumbled under her breath but it was still picked up by Aodh.
"That's because it is easy... Besides there are only two people who are in this tribe that are a treat to either of us." Aodh informed Yang.
"Oh, so we can both die together then." Yang sarcastically retorted.
Looking down at Yang, Aodh couldn't help but smirk at her. "Hehe... Smartass."
Soon though Yang, Aodh and there escorts arrived in front of the camp's main tent. After a few silent moments Raven emerged from the tent with her mask on.
"Mom."
Looking down at Yang for brief moment before taking off her mask, Raven smiled down at her daughter. "Yang... So, after all this time you finally decided to visit me."
"You know that I searched for you. I spent years looking for you." Yang spat back at her mother. She could feel her left hand shaking. She once more used her robotic arm to calm herself down as Aodh also placed his right hand on her left shoulder.
"And you've found me. You were patient, determined, and strong enough to make your dream a reality. Well done, Yang." But Raven's attention soon changed towards her other 'guest.'
"And you... I thought I said the next time you enter my camp I would kill you." Raven growled at Aodh who could only smirk back.
"Oh, I know... But I came here to help Yang. I'm not here for you or your little pet. That is... Unless either of you come after me. It's only fair that I can defend myself then." Aodh responded back as he tightened his fists into a ball.
After hearing Aodh's reasoning Raven knew that he would only react to what would happen next was to endanger Yang. So instead she turned her attention towards her tribesmen and women around the pair and noticed the cuts bruises and lumps over there near broken bodies.
"Did you have to rough my men up?" Raven asked as her right hand moved towards the grip of her Odachi.
"Trust me Aunite... I could've done a lot worse than the condition they're in now." Aodh mockingly growled back as he responded.
Not liking where this conversation was going Yang put her hand in front of Aodh. "We didn't come here for a fight... And besides they were the ones who started it."
"Well, you both certainly finished it." Raven responded back to Yang before a tense silence fell over them all.
"Right. I'm sure this is all very overwhelming. But I will admit that you've proven yourself. So any questions you have Yang I'll be happy to answer. I will allow you both the stay the night with us. Maybe i'll even have the cooks whip up something for us as we talk over dinner." Raven stated as she began to turn around and back into her tent but Yang quickly responded back.
"That's not why I came here." The bandits seemed to be taken back by Yang's blatant lack of respect.
"What was that?" Raven asked back.
"I'm not here for you." Yang responded. "Ruby is currently in Mistral, and she's with Qrow. She's going to need my help, so I just need you to take me to her."
"And why would I do that?" Raven asked back.
"Because we're family." Yang stated back causing Raven to scowl in response.
"Family. Only coming around when they need something." Raven muttered to herself before responding back. "I have to say, I'm disappointed. After all, even with Aodh's help you did find me, didn't you? Why not take that drive and use it to find your little sister if she means that much to you?"
"Because you're going to save me time. I now know that Ruby's currently in Mistral, but that wasn't a grantee until I meet up with Aodh and he confirmed that to me. So I had a choice. I could spend two weeks driving there on my bike or take three days to travel here... Thankfully Dad told me how your Semblance works." Yang answered back.
"Tai..." Raven cursed under her breath.
"I know that can bond to certain people. And when you do, you could create a portal that takes you straight to them. You've got one for Dad. One for me. One for Aodh. And you've got one for Qrow... Before he left he promised me he'd watch out for Ruby. Both he and Aodh done so before she arrived there. So, make a portal to my uncle and sister, and I'll be on my way."
"You know, it takes real strength to march in here and demand such a favor of me. I've got to say, I'm impressed. It's very noble thing to do, helping out your sister that is." Raven responded but her mood changed as she continue'd. "But if she's with Qrow, then she's already a lost cause."
"What does that mean?" Yang asked not really understanding what her mother meant while Aodh scowled.
"You don't want to get mixed up in all of that, Yang. Ozpin is not the man you think he is." Raven answered back.
"Qrow and this idiot are fools for trusting him." Raven continue'd as she pointed at Aodh. "I would know, I trusted him once, too."
"And ran away when things got serious." Aodh answered back in anger.
"What?" Yang asked.
"Your mother knows the same information that me, and Qrow know Yang. While we both stayed to fight the cause..." Aodh then lit a cigarette in his mouth before he continue'd. "Your mother hid behind her tribe, like a coward."
"Then have have you told her the truth then?" Raven asked Aodh. "So you still see them as children. Just like Qrow."
"I've already told Ruby and the rest of what was Team JNPR. I was going to tell Yang once we managed to meet back up again. That way everyone will get another chance to ask any questions." Aodh answered back to Raven. "And Yang is not a child anymore. As far as I'm concerned she's earned the title of calling herself a Huntress."
Yang's eyes softened as she heard her older cousin's acknowledgement. But Raven simply glared back at Aodh before turning her attention back to her daughter. "Believe what ever you want to, that is your choice. But Yang all that I'm suggesting is that instead of getting wrapped up in something too big for you, for any of us, that maybe you take a moment to wonder if you're already where you belong.
"Yang won't fell for something like that... She better than you." Aodh responded back to Raven.
"I was asking her." Raven snapped back.
"I don't care about that. Nothing is going to keep me from my sister." Yang followed up.
"Well, aren't you stubborn." Raven smirked at her daughter.
"Well Dad always did tell me that I get that from my mom." Yang answered.
"If that's how you feel, then it sounds like we're done here. Take her away." Raven responded as she turned around towards her tent's entrance.
The bandits then slowly started to surround both Aodh and Yang. Quickly Aodh pivoted around on his right foot so that he was now back to back with Yang. The blades on Rua Solas then extended outwards as he extended his own arms out.
"I'd be careful now..." Aodh eyes changed red as he softly warned the bandits. The blades of his gauntlets then dropped out and fell into Aodh's hands. "Rua Solas recently got a upgrade."
Aodh smirked as the blades ignited in flames and as chains that connected between the blades and the gauntlets dropped with a metallic clang. "They might be a little hot for you idiots to handle."
Knowing Aodh's strength the bandits started to move back to a safer distance but kept a tight grip on their weapons.
Yang noticed this and turned towards her mother. "Did you not hear me?"
Raven turned back around before she could enter her tent "I said send me to Qrow, damn it!" As Yang finished her eyes turned red.
"That's enough! You watch your mouth in front of our leader!" One of the bandits shouted as the rest tensed up behind him.
"Make me." Yang softly ordered as Aodh turned around to face the bandit.
Felling that the need to back up his own words the lone bandit rushed towards Yang. Aodh smirked as he watched Yang swat the bandit away into a nearby tent, causing it to collapse.
However with the tent no longer in view it revealed a cage with a familiar friend locked within. "Yang?" Weiss asked out loud. She thought she was seeing things.
"Weiss?" Yang spoked out loud not believing her own eyes. Aodh meanwhile like the everyone else present was stunned in silence.
"Alright, well, subtlety is out." Weiss muttered to herself as she turned her miniature Arma Gigas making it transform into it's giant form, destroying the cage in the process.
She quickly makes her way towards Yang, with the now giant Arma Gigas following close behind. The three of them now stood with there back against each other. "What is that?" Yang asked with a stunned look on her face as she looked at the Arma Gigas.
"Don't worry about it. What are you doing here?" Weiss answered before asking her own question.
"Questions for later. Focus on what's in hand here now girls!" Aodh snapped back. By the tone in his voice they both could tell he wasn't exactly happy to see Weiss. However it was for a different reason than they had thought.
"No, I want to know what you two are doing here!" Weiss however snapped back at Aodh
"Well, that's my mom and she can take us to Ruby." Yang grunted as she gestured towards Raven.
Weiss now simply couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Your mom kidnapped me?!" Weiss shouted out loud.
"You kidnapped her?!" Yang also shouted out in disbelief, this time it was aimed at her mother.
Meanwhile Aodh roared out in rage as he threw his blades into the air before yanking on the chains causing them to come crashing down into the ground.
As the blades slammed the ground flames burst outwards and the force of the impact caused the bandits in front of them to lose their footing as they fell onto the ground.
"ANSWERS NOW! WHY IS MY GIRLFRIEND'S LITTLE SISTER HERE?! IS SHE THE REASON I WAS TOLD NOT TO COME BACK HERE?!" Aodh shouted out in rage as he turned to look at Raven.
"Winter's your Girlfriend?! You where here before Yang arrived?!" Weiss shouted out once more in disbelief before a lightning strike from behind silenced them all.
"ENOUGH!" Vernal shouted out. Her voice echo'd outwards around the camp.
"AND NOW THE LAPDOG'S HERE!" Aodh who was not detoured roared out.
"SILENCE!" Raven shouted out in at the top of here lungs silencing everyone. "If you people don't keep it together this place will be crawling with Grimm."
Aodh gritted his teeth in anger. He knew Raven had a point. "Give Weiss her weapon back." Aodh order towards Vernal.
Vernal at first smirked at Aodh. "Give her back her weapon." Raven then ordered Vernal who at first looked surprised at the command before complying and tossed Myrtenaster to Weiss.
"That's a good Dog." Aodh mocked Vernal as she snarled back in return.
"You three. In my tent. Now." Raven order to the trio as she turned towards her tent.
"Why?" Yang asked.
"If you're really going after your sister, then you need to know the truth." Raven responded as she entered her tent. Weiss sighed in relief as she placed her hand on her chest.
With the arena now clearing Aodh retracted the blades and deactivated Rua Solas. "You two alright?" He asked both Weiss and Yang with concern in his voice.
"I think we're fine for now." Yang answered back before turning towards Weiss. "Sorry about."
Yang was stopped as Weiss suddenly dropped Myrtenaster and tightly hugged her. Aodh smirked as he seem Weiss' feet dangle up from the ground.
"I missed you so much." Weiss softly cried as she continue'd to hug her dear friend.
"I've missed you, too." Yang simply responded as she put her hand on the back of Weiss' head and hugged her back.
As Weiss summon started to disappear they both let go of each other. "It's nice to see our Ice Princess is safe and well... And no longer in that hell hole of Atlas."
"Ice Princess? Why are you calling me that?" Weiss was confused as she turned to ask Aodh.
Aodh laughed as he rubbed his hand over her head. "Cause my Ice Queen, is Winter."
"I still don't know how to feel about you."
"Love ya too Weiss." Aodh snorted back as the trio entered Raven's tent.
And Cut!
Two chapters in two days. Aren't you guys looked after when I return to a story lol. But however there will be a gap between the next few chapters as I will be working on my other stories in the meantime.
1 question was posted from the last chapter so here it this Chapter's short Q&A!
1) Since DC is making a RWBY comic comics which DC villain would ship Cinder with and which one do think could scare the shit out of Salem? I was excited to hear this when I found out and it's a great question to think about. I'd personally pair Cinder with Lex Luthor as he is someone ina position of power that she would try to manipulate.
As for the Villain who would scare Salem i'd bet on Darkseid. Someone who I feel would be easily able of killing Salem even though we know she is immortal.
So that's all for this chapter folks. If you have a question do feel free to post a review or PM myself. If I don't answer your question on next chapter's Q&A I will try to reply via PM. Thank you for reading this chapter. I hope you've all enjoyed it. Till next time!
