Cheers arose in the Beacon gym as a sparring boxing match in the ring raged on. Will and Yang punched and blocked and punched and blocked with neither emerging unscathed. Yang and Will were an odd couple. Neither were the soft, romantic types like Jason and Weiss, but much prefer physical activities such as beating something (or someone) up. Yang was smiling with a split lip and Will was laughing with his black eye as the fought. This was there equivalent of a romantic evening. "Time!" someone yelled, calling an end to the round. Will and Yang touched gloves and retreated to their corners. They were having the time of their lives... until Chad accidentally punched Will with the water bottle. "For bloody 'ecks sake, Chad! Stop staring at that Ruby girl! I'm kinda getting my ass handed to me! It's awesome!"
Shadow grunted and his head swam as he struggled to his feet. He stumbled over to the railing where he peered down to see a young girl tousling a monkey-faunus' hair with her sword and a semi-conscious Blake being held up by two of the White Fang. 'Blake!' Shadow ran along the walkway, clutching his side and unsheathing Dusk and Dawn. He vaulted the edge and fired his pistols at the White Fang members before rolling into a safe landing. He sliced another 2 down as his pistols locked into daggers but the young girl was too fast and disarmed him easily. Then it was just him and Neo, locked in a deadly stare-down.
The warehouse burst with laughter as Shadow drew his final weapon, his last hope... a yoyo. Only Blake, Sun and Neo did not laugh; though Neo did give a contempt smirk. But hoots of laughter turned to gasps of shock as, with a flick of his wrist, Shadow made his yoyo develop blades and through it at Neo. She ducked under the whirring blades and they wedged in a stack of barrels behind her. With a swift tug of the rope, the yoyo was pulled free and the barrels cascaded down into the White Fang members and Neo, knocking them all down. Shadow's next target was the door controls and as the doors creaked open, inch by inch, the crowd of Faunus surged out of the doors, running for freedom. Shadow tossed Dusk to Blake and Dawn to Sun and they fought the White Fang with all the might they could muster.
Author's Note: Sorry about the time span since the last chapter was uploaded but I was enjoying my holidays. I'm back at school now so expect regular uploads (every two days or so, unless I'm working on GCA.) As always, read and review. Also, let me know if you are okay with the chapter length for every day or so, or if you prefer longer chapters but they will take about a week per upload.
Update (03/11/2015): Hi everyone! Bad news I'm afraid: My laptop is bust and I may have lost everything including the last chapter of GCA and it was big! So, sadly, I won't be writing for a while! I'm actually doing this from my school's computer! Sorry again but I'll make the next chapter MASSIVE up for it.
Update (22/09/2016): Hey guys, I know it has been so long but I finally have free time on my hands again and you'll be happy to know that I plan on updating my stories again! As you may have noticed, my grammar sucks so any help would be greatly appreciated! Updates soon!
