Sorry for the massive chapter update line, I've just been busy with some shit and I've been at a party all weekend...
Well... I had originally put in a 'Thanks for the 27,000 views' thing... until I actually looked at the list and its ABOVE 30,000!
THANKS GUYS! YOU ARE THE BEST... and the girls... I guess... JOKES!... #GenderEquality... I hate you all the same! :)
As an added little thing, I'm having a competition until the chapter after the next to see what I should call all the OC's weapon's... all of them except for Demon's... I'll be taking care of that little thing...

Chapter 35:
How in the world could I have possibly thought this would be a good idea in ANY universe…?
Demon was just now looking upon the destruction that was caused when he let Ruby control Vanessa… and he was severely regretting it. She had given her the basics, which was the equivalent of telling her to move normally, then he let her get in the cockpit figuring that she wouldn't even be able to turn it on… however Vanessa had the mind to let her have fun. She had booted up and took her through a virtual reality training course and then gave her full body control… and then the fun started… the fun of a no-holds-barred utter destruction.
He had taken them down to the forest so that they wouldn't disturb anyone… only he couldn't really call it a forest now. She had used the Plasma Railgun on a couple of trees to test her aim, so that took out most of the forest, then Grimm came along and she nailed them in seconds although the bullets over penetrated and either destroyed more trees or set the grass on fire. He had then tried to de-activate the mech, only the anti-hacking protocols that Markus installed backfired and denied him access because the password had apparently changed, so Ruby was given more 'fun' time with the mech. She went over and picked up the gigantic scythe and then began destroying more stuff with that.
He then found out with a horrible realisation that she had then figured out how to activate the cloaking after he was kicked about 100m by an invisible source behind him, hearing the giggling of Ruby far behind him. With that, he finally gave up and called in his personal Titan, hearing the booming of the sound barrier breaking as it entered atmosphere, watching as the flaming mech smashed into the ground and broke a few trees nearby.
After that, he activated every single one of the targeting modules and managed to see the faint outline of Vanessa, cursing himself for making such a good cloaking system, then sped off after the Titan… although he never did catch her. The Stryder was infinitely faster than the Atlas so, after much trepidation, he sent the kill code and Vanessa's huge body slammed into the ground as power cut from her system.
He walked over and manually opened the cockpit, pulling a guilty looking Ruby out of it, before activating Vanessa again and calling down the dropship to pick them up.
"Seriously Ruby, you couldn't have just listened to my warnings!"
"When did you give me warnings?"
"Did you look at any of the signs in the cockpit?"
"There were signs?"
He responded by opening Vanessa's cockpit again and showing her the posters and other messages that covered the inside, each with labelling along the lines of 'Don't touch this!', 'Don't piss around with this!', 'Don't even think about it!' and moreover the 'You will be dead after pressing this!' label.
"Ummm… when did they get there?" Ruby innocently asked, Demon face-palmed after he heard the actual sincerity in her voice.
"Never mind… the point is that no-one got hurt, well except for me, and the fact that no-one else found out about this…"
And that was when he was, once again, proved to be wrong.
As the dropship came into view, he noticed something was rather off, mainly the fact that there was a bullhead following, while the other was that his other two Titans were hanging from cables underneath. He zoomed in with his Titan's optics onto the cockit to find Tempest sitting there with his feet up on the dash while blowing a bubble with bubble gum. He looked to see Yang was sitting next to him, flicking through the holographic screen, probably going through the weapons as he saw the minigun spin up for a second, being stopped after Tempest just reached over a clicked a button to deactivate the weapons control, much to Yang's chagrin.
He changed his view over to the bullhead and saw Markus sitting at the controls with Josh sitting at the other side. He was a bit annoyed when he couldn't see anyone else but then found out why when he looked down at the Titans, only seeing everyone else hanging off. Nicolai had Nora hanging off his rocket launcher, Jaune desperately holding onto the bar near the cockpit with Pyrrha trying to comfort him and Kira casually holding onto the hand-holds near the generator access… and of course Jaeger was hanging off the chrome plating near the back combing his hair.
Jeeves was hanging from the Bullhead, Ren holding onto the main pod while Weiss and Blake were hanging onto the arms, the former shouting profusely while the other was just reading a book. Demon was a bit weirded out when her didn't see Rosaline at all. He dismissed the fact and linked up with the speakers in the dropship, putting his voice on max volume.
"FEET OFF THE DASH DUMBASS!" he shouted, laughing as he saw Tempest literally jump out of the seat in shock and fall to the floor, the dropship veering dangerously left until he got back up and straightened it out.
Demon waited for the others to land, the cords of the Titans cutting while the giant mechs landed with a massive clunk, then the dropships both set down. The people that were hanging on the Titans were the first to drop down and ran straight up to Demon, all with looks of exitement and joy… except for Ren, Blake and Weiss of course.
"Why are you all looking like you've just found Ren's stack of secret pancakes?" Demon asked, seeing their expessions.
"REN HAS SECRET PANCAKES!" Nora screamed, immediately turning to her childhood friend "I can't believe you didn't tell me!" she added with a whisper.
"I'm just kidding Nora, but seriously… what is up with the grins?"
"Well… Josh said we could use your Titans for practice…" Blake added, still looking down at her book.
"WHAT!" Demon shouted, looking at the pilot stepping out of the Bullhead and instantly trying to get back in after seeing Demon staring at him in his Titan.
You aint getting out that easy!
Demon opened the cockpit and flicked his wrist straight at Josh, sending a magnetic grappling hook flying at insane speeds and latching onto his back.
"GET OVER HERE!"
He pulled with all his strength and pulled Josh back straight towards him and caught him and held him by the throat.
"So… you said they could use my Titans?"
"Well you certainly weren't using them…" he spat out through a choke hold.
"You have a point… but next time ask!" Demon replied, dropping Josh and letting him fall to the ground, smiling a bit as he heard his body hit the floor.
"AI, activate Titans C and D, full boot-up sequence"
Initiating boot-up
Nicolai booted up first and whirred his servo's, spinning his arms around in full circles before picking up his rocket launcher and spying Yang getting out of the dropship, went over and happily began chatting. Jeeves took a bit longer but got up eventually and checked himself over, walking to stand next to Demon after he did.
"Alright peoples…" Demon addressed the crowd before him "According to Josh here I decided to let you use my Titans… something which I didn't… but I will let you use them on the condition that you obey the signs!"
Ruby quickly used her semblance to nearly teleport up to stand on the end of his chaingun.
"DON'T LISTEN TO THAT!" she quickly added before avoiding a massive metal hand that tried to swat her away.
"As I was saying, don't piss with the tech and you'll be good…"
Just as he was about to shout at them some more, he was interrupted by a buzz from his scroll. He checked the message and was surprised to see that Ozpin had actually sent him a message rather than just annoyingly turn up without notice.
Mr Demon,
It would be most fortunate if you would attend a meeting at my office in the next few minutes… and please ensure that we have a forest for the initiation next year…
Ozpin
He sighed and put away his scroll turning to the others… how did this guy manage to have eyes on LITERALLY everything…
"Well… apparently your almighty overlord in the compensation tower needs to see me so I will be going… while I'm gone Kira is in charge. Ruby and Ren, you can use Vanessa, Nora and Yang you get Nicolai, Blake and Jaune you can get Jeeves and finally, Weiss and Pyrrha get my Titan… destroy anything and you WILL be paying for it… as well as all the ammo expended"
They all groaned while Demon just smiled and jumped out of his Titan, seeing that Tempest and Markus were already going through the basics with the others, so he went and jumped in the dropship. As he did, he looked up to see a weirdly ornate ship flying over the arena with banners flying behind it and coloured with white and blue.
"Hmm… that's a pretty nice ship" he muttered, catching the ear of Weiss who saw that he was looking at the ship. She gasped and quickly ran over to Demon.
"Quickly, take me to Beacon!" she asked, not in her normal orderly tone. He just shrugged and climbed aboard, firing up the engines and hearing the hum of them groaning into order. Just as he was about to take off, Ruby dashed aboard and sat down with Weiss. He just ignored it and lifted off, closing the landing ramp, then set off back to Beacon. He flew at a moderate rate, switching to the cameras on the back of the dropship and watched as Yang had managed to get into Nicolai and was now practising with the Quad Rocket… it was lucky that he had hidden 90% of the explosives underground. He opened the door to the landing bay and set the ship to autopilot, walking back to where Ruby and Weiss were talking.
"So why did you suddenly decide to head back to Beacon in like 3 seconds?" he asked Weiss, interrupting the two's conversation.
"I just… I'm meeting someone"
"So you head to the Emerald forest and then turn back the second I mention the ship… OH! Are you waiting for someone on the ship?"
"Maybe?"
"Meh… just sayin you're missing out on controlling a badass 15-foot tall mech… you can't do that every day!"
"And I can't speak to this person every day… your point is?"
"Eh, never mind Ice Queen… why did you come Ruby?"
"I'm just following Weiss…" she replied, looking up from the weapons magazine she was reading. She then looked past Demon, her eyes widening by the second, then quickly pointed outside the cockpit. Demon turned… to see a massive ship filling up just about the entire view.
"SHIT!"
He sprinted back into the controls and pushed them down, quickly pulling into a dive and avoiding it, seeing the ship make a sharp left to avoid. He heard the crackling of his comms systems and patched them through.
This is the Atlesian Wind contacting unknown craft entering our airspace, please explain the reason for your flight discrepancies immediately
He then heard a quick remark from someone in the background, mostly yelling at the subordinate for the interruption. He pressed the open mic and connected it to the mic in his helmet.
"This is the pilot of the dropship responsible for the upset, I'm terribly sorry for the disruption and it is I who am at fault… I was kinda distracted while I was flying and didn't notice until the last second"
Please don't let this happen again for both our sakes… I need your name and the name of your ship for file report… I'm really sorry but I'll get fired if I don't ask
"It's fine… my name is Demon, currently enrolled in Beacon academy and the name of the ship is… umm… the Spirit of Earth?... I don't really have a name for it"
acknowledged… if you are heading for Beacon academy please travel at least 300m behind our craft for safety
"Got it… see ya!" he ended, cutting the feed and pulling the dropship back onto a course to Beacon… staying exactly 299m behind the ship just to piss them off. He tracked them then broke off when they went to land at a separate landing pad. He slowly lowered it, confident that he would manage to land it, then was distracted by seeing the Atlesian Wind open its doors and several robots that almost looked like Spectres walked out. His heart thumped, thinking they looked like an advance version of the combat models developed by the IMC… and he forgot to activate the landing skids. The hull of the dropship scraped loudly against the landing pad so he activated the thrusters, pulling it away and activating the skids… the only problem was that they caught on the guide rope that was nearby.
At the sheer speed he was going up, it pulled the front of the craft and began a nose-dive straight into the platform. Demon instantly saw this and angled the thrusters away from the platform, leaving the dropship pointed straight down. He then set it to autopilot stabilisers and opened the cockpit and jumped down onto the landing pad, pulling out his odachi and sliced the metal connecting the landing skids to the craft, freeing it… the only problem was the the thrusters were set to max… and with nothing connecting it to the ground you can kinda guess what happened.
Demon swore to himself and fired off a grapple, connecting to the cockpit before it could get out of range, then pulled himself in. He climbed back inside and tuned down the thrusters, put the dropship back to be horizontal then descended again, this time using the rear landing pads and just slowly touching down the cockpit to lessen the damage. He smiled to himself and powered down, turning around and assessing the damage.
"So that was fun!" he stated, looking at his two passengers who had not been strapped in during the little tyrade. Weiss was looking completely distraught and was cradling her knees while Ruby was trying to prop herself up on Crescent Rose.
"WHAT WAS THAT!" Weiss screamed, directing her full hate towards Demon.
"Umm… I was thinking that I was saving the situation… I couldn't name another pilot who could manage to pull that off!"
"YOU NEARLY GOT US KILLED" she screamed again, Demon having to tune down the receptors in his helmet to make sure he didn't go deaf.
"It was an accident that I thought I salvaged pretty well!" he retorted, clearly pissed that she wouldn't just accept the fact.
"That…" Ruby stuttered as she had finally managed to pull herself to stand "Was… AWESOME!" she finished, squealing in delight. Demon just smiled and released the hatch of the door, walking out with as much swagger as one could when they just nearly killed themselves by being an idiot. There were a couple of people gawking at the scene but he just ignored them and kept walking, making sure to lock the dropship afterwards.
He was walking straight towards the clocktower when he was distracted by Weiss and Ruby pushing past him to get towards the other ship that had landed with exited looks on their faces.
Wait a minute… when have I ever seen Weiss smile? The only time that ever happened was when I was kicked in the balls and… well that was really the only time… so this better be good!
He looked at the ship and saw someone that looked awfully similar to the Ice Queen walk out of the ship with an air of authority seeming to surround her. He watched as Weiss happily walked up to her and began talking, the woman taking absolutely no notice what-so-ever and waited for the girl to stop talking. Weiss, however, didn't look deterred at all by the woman's attitude and continued talking at a hyper-active pace, looking much like Ruby during a sugar-high.
He dismissed Ozpin's call and jogged over to them, laughing as he saw Weiss get slapped by the woman. He made it over and saw that the woman had also seen him, tilting her head as if to question why he was coming. He ignored it and stopped when he was beside Ruby and tapped her shoulder.
"Boo…"
"EEEEEPPPPP!" she squealed, jumping up a metre and nearly collapsing from shock.
Demon smiled and looked over to see Weiss giving him a deadpan look.
"Oh come on! That was hilarious… and why don't you introduce me to this nice lady here, I've never seen you so happy to meet someone… I'm guessing that she's probably your sister as your probably not a lesbian, although you can never be too sure"
Weiss was positively fuming when he finished and slapped the side of his helmet, not really doing much. Demon just smirked behind the mask and turned, offering his hand to the woman.
"My name is Demon, nice to meet you… It's probably safe to assume you're either a Schnee or someone from Atlas given how annoyed your pilot was"
She returned the gesture, the faintest trace of a smile playing across her face as she watched Weiss nearly lose it.
"Hello Mr Demon, it is nice to meet you too… I am Specialist Winter Schnee of the Atlesian military and may I enquire as to why you caused the disturbance of my craft"
"Well… given the fact that I only got my pilot's licence a couple of days ago and the ship's pretty new I just had a steering malfunction and couldn't alter my course for a while… very sorry for any troubles Ma'am"
"I commend you on your pilot's licence but onto another topic, I do believe I have seen you before?"
"If you've watched the Vytal Festival it was probably there…"
"Were you the man that defeated an entire 4-man team by yourself? I do believe I have heard quite the amount of publicity surrounding that stunt"
"Yup, that's me! So good to see I've got a loyal fanbase!" he teased, earning a tiny smile from Winter. Before he could continue, he received another message from Ozpin.
Mr Demon,
If you would please make haste to my office I do believe I asked you to be here a fair while ago…
Ozpin
"Oops… sorry but I have to go, old Ozzie's asked me to get to his office ASAP so see ya!"
He turned without even saying another thing but was once again interrupted by the sound of a massive explosion from the forest below. He looked down to see a crater with Nicolai in the middle of it with his roof hatch open and a faint trail of smoke coming out… someone had obviously found the eject lever. He adjusted his eyesight to see Yang flying sky high with a look of terror on her face. He activated the optics in his helmet and zoomed in to see that she was actually holding a sign… and flipping the bird at him.
YOU DICK! You could have at least labelled the lever!
He took out his scroll and messaged her a quick response.
Pffft… who has time to label everything?
She switched the sign so that it now read 'YOU!'
Well I'm sorry… let me guess, Nicolai put you up to it?
Now the sign read 'Yep'
I see… one second….
He pulled out a grenade from his satchel and attached it to his magnetic grapple, pulling the rope out to about a metre. He then spun it in circles around his head then released the magnets, the grenade pin being activated and the grenade was flung so that it was barely visible… then detonated just as Yang reached the top of her ballistic arc.
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" came a faint reply that Demon barely heard as he saw the flaming dragon fall back towards the ground.
Ahhhh… that felt good
Turning around again, he saw that Winter, Weiss and Ruby were all giving him the biggest 'are you insane' look, something which he of course replied with by shrugging and walking off to Ozpins compensation tower. He made it inside without being interrupted again, getting into the elevator and going up to Ozpin's office, glad that he had finally made it, then the doors opened and Ozpin was standing directly at the door.
"Sir?" Demon asked, receiving a warm smile from the teacher.
"I'm sorry Mr Demon but I must attend to a small student matter outside in the courtyard so I will be back soon. Whilst I'm gone please do ensure not to touch anything…"
"Will do!" he affirmed, stepping aside to let Ozpin past then stepping into his office before the elevator descended. He turned around and looked over the room he was in. It was very simple, not much in the department of aesthetics, although it did kinda have the time theme going for it. Demon went over and sat down in Ozpin's chair, spinning around in it just for fun and to kill time.
"You know… leaving those others down there was dangerous, one of them could die… I wouldn't want to miss that"
At the sound of Kalazar's voice once again coming into his head, he fell of the chair in shock and knocked over one of Ozpin's coffee mugs that was sitting on his desk.
SHIT! Seriously? You couldn't have waited for a bit longer before showing yourself again?
"You must learn better grammar my friend, can you see me? No? then therefore I am not showing myself, just messing up your mind"
Errr… damn you and stupid logic… why are you talking now?
"Well, I have managed to re-gain my composure after figuring out how to use the semblance and I believe I know how you yourself can activate it"
It took you like three days to figure it out… how can it take you that long?
"Oh I'm sorry! Did you want me to come with it in a box and a damn bow on top? Stop whining princess, that's the Ice Queen's job… anyway, I believe it can be activated when…"
Just as he was about to explain, the elevator pinged and Winter with another man stepped out, making Demon block Kalazar from his thoughts.
"Hi again!" he chimed, Winter looking a lot more pissed than the last time he saw her. She just ignored him and began pacing, letting the other man do the talking.
"Mr Demon, it is nice to see you again… I suppose now you'll be more lenient in the information you are going to provide?"
"Nup, you won't be getting any schematics for anything… actually, I'll be nice and give you a pistol sketch!"
He just responded with a deadpan expression and went and leant against Ozpin's desk. A few seconds later the elevator pinged and more people stepped out.
Damn that's a fast elevator!
Ozpin and Glynda stepped out… but it was the third person that caught his attention.
Qrow?
"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!" Winter snapped.
"If you were one of my men I'd have you shot!" Ironwood finished, glaring straight at the man with Glynda and Ozpin.
"Ha, if I was one of your men I'd shoot myself!" replied the guy, taking a swig from a small flask.
Yep, same old Qrow…
Demon had watched old videos of Raven and Qrow messing around while they were young and Qrow took up the job of annoying the hell out of her, always snapping a quick burn wherever he could and then making another one whenever she tried for a comeback.
"Please leave the bickering until later, we have company…" Ozpin interrupted, gesturing to Demon while he sat in his chair.
"HEY! Company has a name here…!" retorted Demon, casually getting out of his chair and leaning on the desk again.
"Ok then, Mr Demon, I would like to introduce you to…" Ozpin began, gesturing to the man drinking from the flask.
"Qrow Branwen" Demon finished for him, seeing the man perk up from the words.
"Hey kid, how'd you know my name?" Qrow asked, giving him a quizzical look.
"I heard it from a one-winged raven back on Gearra Prime…"
Qrow immediately went hostile and took out his massive buster sword, extending it and pointing it straight at Demon.
"You better have some damn good explanation or you're going to be a blood stain on that wall in half a second!"
Demon thought of a way he could explain, realising he didn't have any actual evidence… then he remembered what his mother gave him back in the hospital. He reached into the satchel in his armour and took out the photo of his mother, him and Qrow, turning it around so that the old bird could see it. Qrow hesitantly reached out and took it, inspecting the photo and lowering his sword.
"Where'd you get this?"
"My mother gave it to me…"
"Your mother?"
"It has been quite a long time Uncle…" remarked Demon taking off his helmet and showing his face to Qrow.
"HOLY MOTHER OF SHIT! HAWK IS THAT YOU!" he swore, nearly dropping his weapon.
"The one and only!" Demon replied, a smirk flying over his face as he saw the man's reaction.
"You are related to Raven Branwen?" asked Ozpin, drawing everyone's attention. Ozpin had heard Demon mention that Yang and Ruby were his sisters but he just put that down to the fact that they had formed strong bonds with each other, not even thinking that they could actually be related by blood.
"Yup, she's my mother and Qrow here is my Uncle!" Demon, still smirking at Qrow.
"I seem to remember that you didn't put down the fact that you were from another universe in your application form Qrow…"
"Well I kinda figured that it didn't really effect anything so I left it out!" replied the hunter, regaining his composure. "So Demon, how'd ya manage to get here?"
"Well it involved spectres, a dropship, a girl and a butt-tonne of explosives…"
"The girl always gets you in the end…" he remarked, looking off into the distance as he remembered something. "Wait a minute, you said a dropship, how'd you get your hands on that? You didn't join the IMC did you?"
"NO! I'd be offended if you actually though that I'd join a military corporation… I joined the Militia"
"ATTA BOY!" Qrow cheered, slapping him on the shoulder and offering him the flask which he happily accepted and chugged down half the bottle. "HEY! Leave some for me!"
"Oh please, you've got like seven others on you!"
"It's like you don't even know me… I have another ten"
They both laughed until they were interrupted by Ozpin coughing.
"Now that you two have re-acquainted yourselves with each other let's move to business… Demon I do believe it is now your turn to uphold your end of the deal"
"Will do…" replied the pilot, walking over and pulling out a small USB, plugging it into the projector then scrolling through some files before pulling one out. The projector flickered a bit before coming to life and displaying a 3D hologram of what looked to be a very basic version of a Spectre Titan.
"You seriously made a bargain with Ozpin?" asked Qrow, Demon just nodding in return.
"This is the Hammond Industries LX-1125 issue Spectre, one of the most basic models of Titan"
He pressed a button and the model split off to reveal each individual part, Demon pushing some out of the way with a swipe of his hand to get to the main chassis.
"This is the most basic model of the nuclear reactor which provides enough power to support the Titan at operational status for a month without outside input… I'll send through the schematics to your scrolls when I'm done"
"Remarkable…" Ironwood commented, walking over to the hologram "It looks just like the Atlesian Paladin except with more passive systems rather than focusing on armaments. We can only get the operational period to last for around 5 hours so this will be a significant advancement… we could integrate…"
Demon just zoned out after that, scrolling through the other files until he came upon the other one that he would be giving to them. He interrupted the general's rant by switching the hologram so that it instead showed the face of a woman.
"What's this?" Ironwood asked, stepping back to look over the new hologram.
"This is the pinnacle of everything that the main technological industry back in our universe has worked to create… I'm just kidding, but it's damn near close… this is the Betty OS system and is capable of fully operating and piloting a Titan"
The general's eyes widened massively at that statement, Ozpin also looking slightly stunned.
"It is not capable of the same level of thinking as a human Pilot but it can point and shoot a gun which is a good thing to have when you don't want to be walking around in a giant target"
He then activated the AI and her face suddenly came to life, looking around the room.
Greetings, I am Beta Ettanalasy 224 but you can just call me Betty, I am your personal Titan AI and I will be assisting you in your endeavours in the near future as a Pilot in the Militia…
Demon cut it off before it could continue its propaganda spew and smiled once he saw Ironwood had his mouth about to fall off and Winter had her eyes bulging out in alarm. He looked down and tapped a few buttons on his scroll and uploaded the programs to Vale's servers, making sure it was private access only.
"Why thank you Mr Demon, that was very… enlightening. I am sure that those were not the best programs you have in your service but we thank you for your commitment to bettering our military as best you would allow… now if you would, could you and Specialist Schnee please leave us to talk, we have much to discuss"
Demon nodded and got in the elevator, Winter swiftly following. The elevator ride was made in complete silence, Demon just rocking back and forth on his heels while Winter stood stock still in a military style and stared at the door. As soon as the doors opened they both quickly walked out, letting out the breath they were holding the whole time then went their separate ways, Demon heading back to his dorm.
"So now that you're not busy…" Kalazar suddenly interrupted, causing Demon to stumble to the side and nearly knock over another student. After he apologised to the student, he continued walking back to the dorm.
Go ahead, you stupid non-corporeal little knave… SEE I used big words now
"Good for you, now onto how you can activate your semblance, I believe it can be activated by taking a deep breath and imagining where you are going to hit…"
Well that seems simple enough… how come it took you days to figure that out?
"Well I couldn't really practice it now could I? Well just try it out for now!"
Demon conceded and stood still in the corridor, looking down the hall to see that he had actually arrived in the same one his dorm was in. He took out his wingman and pulled out the clip, taking a bullet and then putting everything back. He took his right arm and threw it as hard as he could down the corridor, taking a deep breath right as he did and imagining grabbing the bullet. Just as he though it hadn't worked and the bullet was about a metre of the ground, everything slowed down and a small red hue came around the bullet, making everything else dim. Releasing his breath, he suddenly found himself standing right outside his door while he was holding the bullet, turning around to see a trail of smoke behind him.
Ok now that was awesome!
"Pffft, if you think that was awesome I really ought to show you some of my powers…"
You have powers?...
"Onto another topic, I smell anger coming from your dorm so you might want to check on that…"
"YOU ASSHOLE!" came the loud shout of Yang coming from his room so he slowly opened the door and walked in on what they were doing… which was apparently playing video games. He just had enough time to see Yang with hair glowing send a controller flying out the window in rage, loudly growling as she glared at Josh.
"The hell did you do this time?" Demon asked Josh, everyone turning to him… except Yang who looked like she intended to kill Josh.
"I just introduced her to the best video gaming series in existence!"
As Demon looked at the screen that was being projected he suddenly understood why…
"Ok I have two questions… one, how did you manage to get an Xbox here… and the other is WHY THE HELL DID YOU MAKE HER PLAY DARK SOULS!"
"Well… Tempest managed to find it in your pod… and why not Dark Souls?" he asked, a sly grin crossing his face.
"OH I don't know? How about the fact that it is literally one of the hardest games in existence… and you made her play the Prepare to Die edition!"
"It's fine… it's not that hard!"
"The equivalent of a tutorial is saying 'this is how you pan the camera, here's a stick… kill this boss'"
"Fun right?"
"You're hopeless… I know a better game… DOOM!"
All the pilots cheered and immediately ran off down the corridor, presumably to get controllers and the game.
"It better not be anything like that!" Yang growled, sticking a thumb at the Dark Souls 'You Died' screen.
"You'll see… all I have to say is… FIGHT LIKE HELL!"
