Chapter Sixteen: Why Can't They Listen?

A few days have gone by since the visit to the library which has caused Cyan to avoid me to the point were when he make eye contact he give me weird looks and leaves but I had no complaints and it was a relief to have the cynical sword wielder. Other than that things have been normal well normal for Beacon Academy.

"Guys, guys, guys guess what!" Razi shouted as he ran towards to us.

"Yes, Razi?" Kelly asked with a glint of mischief in her eyes.

"No guess," he said.

"We don't have time for mindless guessing game. You're going to make us late for class," Cyan stated a little too hostilely.

"Ug, fine I heard that team RWBY is going to try to track down the White Fang in Vale tonight," he said.

"And we care why?" Cyan asked in a monotone voice which got him hit in the head by Kelly.

"I was wounding if we could help them?" he suggested in a cheerful tone.

"It not our problem so why should we help them," Cyan put bluntly.

"Because they're our friends," Kelly said in a no-duh voice.

"I can't believe I'm saying this but I agree with Cyan on this. They can handle themselves,"

"Well we can talk about this later were going to be late for class" Cyan said running off to Ports class. We all chased after him, when we got to the room we took our seats and got our notes out.

~Time Skip~

When class was over we headed over to our rooms when we got to them me and Cyan got to work on homework while Kelly look around room in search of an object.

"Darn, I must have forgotten it in the classroom," she huffed in frustration.

"What did you forget?" Cyan asked in an apathetic tone.

"My scroll," she groaned as if the flames of hell had personally risen from Hell to consumer her.

"I'll help you look for it!" Razi said jumping up in an overly enthusiastic manner. They both headed out leaving Cyan and me alone to continue to do our homework.

"Chase there is something I want to ask of you," Cyan spoke as soon as the footsteps of the other two had evaporated into silence. I drummed my fingers against my notes to signal that I was lessening, "I'll put this bluntly to avoid confusion. I want you to give me leadership over the team. "

Turning around I eyes met his cold and metallic gray ones that held no hint of a joke. This was quite a surprise that Cyan would even suggest an idea that involved him having to use a considerable amount of effort considering the many times that I had to bribe him to join the team activities I plan ever so often that he personally asked to take on the reasonability of a leader was abnormal.

After some thought I decided to write down the question that bothered me most about what he had side, "Who are you and what have you done with Cyan?"

Frowning at my very intelligent and thought out answer Cyan sighed, "Chase-"

Before Cyan could explain his reasoning his scroll rang interrupting him. "It's Kelly," he muttered to me as he picked up. "Hey Kelly were-" He was again interrupted by Kelly yelling at him.

I could not hear what she said but the look on Cyan face told me everything.

"Rescue mission?" I asked as he hung up the phone.

"Rescue mission is an understatement," he said as he prepared to leave.

"Why?" I ask confused by his answer. It was obvious that the duo were going to help out team RWBY but I didn't stop them because the six would be working together and there is nothing seriously life-threating to worry about that is in the city.

"I quote what she said, sorry can't talk running away from a giant death robot," I give him a shocked look before getting up to make our way to them on our way to the docks. On the way out of the school we passed Ozpin, he looked at us before leaving.

~Time skip~

We order the pilot to fly over the freeway where we saw a giant robot attacking Sun. Cyan jumped out while I told the pilot to keep her still while I started to shoot. I was able to land a few shots on the robot but the bullets just bounced off. Whoever was in it seemed to notice us and chucking a light-pole at us the pilot was able to dodge the pole it. They started to shot a laser at us, hitting one of the engine. I saw Weiss knock the robot off the highway before we went down and blackness took over...
