Hey quick note for all, so I'm planning to have the story follow a year and half (maybe two) timeline. So with every season comes new challenges for everyone. The beginning of the story takes place at the beginning of September, so with summer coming to an end the fall season begins and that means different obstacles for the group related to fall. (Kinda excited for winter... spoilers) So with that said I would suggest those who have OC's in the story to think about clothes for the different season's. Don't PM me about this yet, Wait a bit and think this thoroughly.
I don't own RWBY or State of decay or any OC's
Normal talk: Bite me
Singing talk: Biiiteeee meeeee
Back at the tower
Over the few weeks the base had changed, for one why'll scavenging Yang managed to pull out a working generator while Weiss tracked down a train car filled with enough gas to last for months. So with some power and enough gas to fuel it, the group managed to build a garden with further plans on turning it into a greenhouse before winter. Currently they have plans on growing tomatoes and lettuce but for now they have taken the wild strawberry and other fruits related plants that had overgrown in gardens and relocated them to the garden. They also set up a functioning workstation set up on the second floor while improving the sleeping quarters with bunk beds and proper mattress. As well as a water collection station on top of the roof. As of right now their crowning achievement was an actual working toilet. Granted all they did was had Yang punch a small hole leading into the sewers below like a jack hammer before building a shed and placing a lounge chair with a hole cut into it, but still completely awesome. The girls also started to learn skills other skills from the few books that they managed to find in the library, Weiss took an interest in medican, Yang a bit in mechanics, Blake in arts while Ruby just mostly focas on improving her aim with the hunting rifle that Fang and Eli brought back, but she did shown some interest in the cooking book. The group also went on more raids grabbing ahold of clothes and building materials, as of right now their main priority is getting ready for winter.
"Hey... Blake." Yang said standing next to Blake who was looking through a pair of binoculars. The two were currently on top of the roof keeping an eye out for trouble.
"Yea?" Blake said with out moving from her position.
"Do you wonder why we are here?" Yang asked as she pulls out a flask that she was using as a canteen before taking a swig.
"I honestly don't know maybe luck, divine interference, maybe this was secretly orchestrated by someone is pulling strings behind the shadow. All I do know is we shouldn't be here... no one should yet we are and all we can do is hope to Oum that we may be able to return alive and well." Blake said deeply getting a no response from Yang for a few seconds.
"... I mean why aren't we under the rain tarp that's providing shade?" Yang said.
"Oh that." Blake said realizing how stupid she sounds just a second ago.
"... Do you want to talk about it?" Yang asked sounding slightly concerned for her partner.
"I'm good thanks." Blake replies raising the binoculars back to her eyes. While scanning she then noticed to the north of her was a familiar individual. Her Faunus eyes gave her better sight even with the binoculars, what she did noticed was Fang covered in blood with a chubby kid in his hand.
"What in the Oum?" Blake mutters to herself.
"Eh What is it Kittie cat?" Yang asked as she looked through her binoculars.
Out in the distance Fang was running as fast as he could, in his arms was a stranger who was bleeding heavily from his for head. His While he was running Eli and Ruby cane out of the woods holding racing behind him holding their bags completely disorganized.
"Get a bed Ready! We got wounded out here!" Fang shouts as her sprinted forward.
"Lily open the fucking gate!" Eli shouts out.
"Holy schneet! Blake go get a bed ready I'll find Lily!" Yang barks as she drops her binoculars and ran through the door.
Back with Fang, he struggles to hold the chubby kid in his arms while running. His clothes were ripped to shreds revealing a pudgy gut, his pants looked like they went through a blender, he was missing a shoe and one side of his glasses was cracked. This pales in comparison to the fact that he was bleeding heavily causing what's left of his clothes to be practically a paintball splattered wall. Even with the blood leaking from his head Fang managed to apply pressure using a bandana, soon he ran straight through the back door that was open by Weiss. Her eyes were side in horror as an incident.
"Fang, what happened to darling here?!?" Alice asked as she pulls she pulls out a cot for the injured stranger.
"I (huff) don't know... me, Ruby, and Eli (huff) were hunting when Ruby saw him in the water." Fang explains before Eli and Ruby burst in tossing their equipment aside.
"Is he gonna be ok?" Ruby asked looking more worried then fatigue.
"Um, I don't know darling. Maybe he got lucky when you found him." Alice said trying to calm her Ruby down.
"Well he's definitely lucky. I highly doubt that falling down a waterfall will end up with a bullet to the head." Blake said pointing out a small twenty two was sticking out of his head.
"Jesus, who shoots kids, with bitch rounds?" Eli said with a look of disgust on his face.
"Probably a coward darling." Alice answering him.
"So is he gonna die?" Ruby asked slightly terrified. Everybody turns to her to see her face was showing complete fear, similar to Velvet's death. Before anyone could answer the kid started to cough violently as his body began to spaz.
"Shit he's going's into shock!" Weiss shouts before rushing over to him. "Everybody hold him down, Ruby get me a pair of pliers!"
Ruby with using her semblance raced around the base till she came back with a pair of pliers. She hands it to Weiss who slowly reaches down into the hole and starts to pull the bullet out from the skull all the while the stranger starts to scream and squirm in pain. It got so bad that Yang had to put in an actual effort to help. After half an agonizing minute Weiss finally pulls out the bullet causing the stranger to stop and remain still like a coffin nail.
"Um Weiss he stopped breathing. How do we fix that as CALMLY AS POSSIBLE!!!!!" Yang shouts getting a memory flashback to Velvets death.
"Well apparently getting hit in the head with something had would give a normal person a concussion. So it's logical that he stops breathing, CAUSE THERE WAS A BULLET LODGE IN HIS SKULL!!!" Weiss shouts back frustrated.
"Hey hey, that's enough you two!" Alice said stepping in. "Now Weiss, how do we fix this problem."
"Well the problem isn't how we are able to fix it but rather how to do so with out killing him." Weiss explains. "You see the bullet had caused severe head trauma causing his brain to swell, if that's not bad enough the fact that barley blood cane from the bullet hole indicates that blood has entered inside the skull and cutting of the flow of oxygen."
"In English please." Lily said.
"In simpler terms if we don't release the pressure from his brain it's gonna either swell to the point of being crushed with in his own skull or literally drown in blood." Weiss said while pinching the bridge of her nose in annoyance.
"Ok then how do we fix that then?" Blake asked.
"Well we at gonna have to relieve the pressure of in other words we ar gonna have to cut a small hole in the base of the skull to relieve the pressure of the (splat)"
Mid way through Weiss rant, Ruby panics and quickly stab a hole in the base of the skull with a screwdriver, she used her aura to puncture the skull while also keeping the screw driver shallow enough to a non leathel distance but this also caused a blood to spurt out of the skull into Ruby's face. Everyone turns around to see Ruby both red handed and red faced holding the screw driver while covered. Even though what Ruby did was extremely risky the patient began to breath, first gasping then returned to a normal state.
"What?" Ruby said taking out a bandanna from her back pocket and wiping the blood of her face.
"You complete... DOLT!" Weiss yells in anger. "That was not only extremely dangerous, but also extremely stupid!"
"And if I had done nothing then he would have died!" Ruby shouts back in anger before breaking into tears. "I will not allow another person to die, no not ever again!"
Weiss opens her mouth to argue back but just couldn't argue back. Ruby did indeed save the kids life but still it was done completely irresponsibly and she could have killed him. Another thing was Ruby finally broke from her shell and actually showed another emotion that wasn't grim. So Weiss just simply kept her mouth shut.
"Look it was a dumb move but at least Ruby managed to save him." Lily said trying to break up the fight. "Now I'm guessing non of you got his name."
Ruby, Fang, and Eli just shook their heads getting her to sigh. After a few seconds Yang then came up with a solution. "Oh maybe we should check his pockets, see if his wallets in them."
"Wha, Yang Xiao Long! What are you thinking, that is completely disrespectful." Weiss spat completely irritated.
"No, that's actually a good idea" Lily said thinking about it more carefully. "If we check his wallet then we can learn about his identity."
"Ok that's probably not gonna happened, besides who still carries a wallet in the zombie apocalypse?" Weiss said crossing her arms in irritation.
"We do." Fang, Lily, Eli, and Alice said pulling out their wallets to show Weiss
"Ok then, well who's to say he didn't loose it in the water." Weiss said trying to sound smart... again.
"He still has his wallet." Blake said bluntly as she pulls out a wallet.
Um then... who's to say his ID wasn't destroyed in the water or over the years." Weiss again said.
"Huh it's actually in better condition then my motorcycle license. Sam Jaeger." Yang said holding a drivers license in pristine condition.
"Well still what, skills does he know, I highly doubt that his... surprising wallet could say." Weiss said sounding irritated.
"Huh, He has a business card for colinary skill, uh even a picture of him in some kind of sports outfit. Ah kinda cu..." before Ruby could finish Weiss snaps and grabs the wallet before tossing it out the window that somehow ricksha hitting a zombie on the other side of the wall.
"... A Schnee loosing to a wallet, the day truly has come." Yang said in complete disbelief.
"Right... So anyways, Weiss is their anything else we are gonna need to save um Sam, Sam's life?" Lily said taking a second to glance at the ID card before back at Sam.
"Well Ruby May have bought us time, but still he's showing signs of concussion and we are gonna have to relieve some pressure." Weiss said before pulling a note pad from her back pocket and started to sketch.
"We are gonna need a drill and something circular that we can attack as a bit to it. From their we can remove a small piece of the skull and provide releif till the brain returns to normal." Weiss said grimly before ripping the paper and handing it to Ruby.
"Ok then, that's gross... so who's gonna go with me on the brain surgery run?" Ruby said turning around to see everybody looking slightly uncomfortable. "What is it guys... do I still have blood on my face?"
"Um Ruby, darling. You sure that's a good idea, you know cause well." Alice said pussyfooting around the obvious problem.
"Because I was depressed about Velvets death." Ruby said bluntly.
"Wha no no no." Yang said trying to stop the conversation but was already too late.
"Yang no it's ok." Ruby said calmly. "Look I get that I was in a depressed state, hell we all were but right now a human is in danger and we are the only ones that can save him. So I may be still upset about Velvet but right now I... we need to focas on helping him. So again who is gonna help me?"
The group was completely amazed by Ruby taking charge of the situation putting her traumatized self behind and focusing on helping people... that or wondering why during Ruby's speech the wind was blowing her way like in some kind of cheese action flick. Probably do to that broken window.
"Yea I guess we should send Eli and Fang along with you since you three did save him." Lily said getting the two to start disagreeing with her.
"Wait a second lil, we found him so we should stay behind and look after him." Eli said.
"Yea all morning we did nothing but hunt and running around with him in my hands wasn't easy." Fang said.
"Well we cant send Weiss, she's looking after him and I can't go cause who else is gonna look after this place." Lily said making a cute yet week bulge with her arm muscle.
"...(sigh) fine but only if Yang and Blake come with." Eli moans as he pinch his eyes
"Wait why us?" Yang complains.
"Cause she's your sister and Blake is the sneaky one." Fang comments.
"... I'll go get my gun." Blake sighs as she walks over to the armory.
Thirty minutes later... in the car.
Yang and Blake were now riding in the back while Ruby sat between them. Fang was currently driving while Eli sat in shotgun, while inspecting his shotgun.
"So where we going first?" Fang asked as he made a turn.
"Um first to the strip mall by crookers corner then the under constructed houses down the road." Yang said looking at a map.
Fang hums in agreement and takes another turn placing them in the direction of the strip mall. After a few minutes they finally reached the small store.
"Alright girls, remember the rule number 1 when scavenging." Eli said as he gets out of the car.
"Ugh, I thought the apocalypse will be the end of tests." Yang moans in annoyance.
"Is it check the windows?" Ruby answeres as she walks around to the back of the car.
"No that's rule two, come on girls Alice made a little jingle to go with it." Eli said as he opens the back of the truck revealing a tied down bag. Fang opens the bag revealing a mish match of weapons.
"When in doubt, know your way out?" Blake said as she grabbed her kukri.
"Correct tomondo" Fang said as he pulls out a spiked bat before pausing for a second. "Ok never saying that ever again."
"Right anyways, just grab the supplies and anything of use?" Yang said grabbing ahold of the crowbar practicing her swing.
"Yep just make sure to stay together and watch your corners." Fang said before tossing Ruby her hunting rifle.
"Sir yes sir." Yang said in a bit of a mocking tone before the three walked over to the veteran store while Fang and Eli walked into the furniture store with their secondary out. Fang pushed before he pulls to find it locked. He gave a nod to Eli who pulls out his axe and uses the tip of the axe like a crowbar. After a few seconds and one quick motion the door lock broke off and the door swung open with Fang taking the lead.
"Room seems clear." Fang said as he scans the room till he noticed a corpse of a zombie on the ground. The blood oozing from its head indicates that it's death was quite recent. "But it seems that we are not alone."
"Right you check the back and I'll search the front." Eli said as he pulls his 1911 from his holster. From their the two walk away from each other looking for signs of anything. What they didn't noticed was someone in a navy blue hoodie climbing down from the vents quietly before pulling out a trench combat knife.
Meanwhile back with the girls, Yang just placed her crowbar to the door ready to pry it open when Blake simply pushed it opens. After a small embarrassed chuckle the sound of a few zombies moaning drowns hers out. Ruby pulls out her hatchet and walks inside followed by Blake. The first zombie turns around and began to growl before Ruby shoved her hatchet into its skull killing it instantly, Blake quickly stomped down hard on the other zombies leg before stabbing it through the top of the skull. Finally Yang ducks underneath the Zombie grab before stopping on its back leg and using an Aura enhanced swing sent the entire head flying out the door.
"And it's out of here, Yang Xiao long has done it folks. She broke the record for third time in a row." Yang said sarcastically trying to make Ruby smile or at least laugh a bit, instead she gets no response from either Ruby who just simply starts her search.
"(Sigh) this isn't good." Yang mutters as she grabs a people's magazine to wipe off the blood on the crowbar.
"Agree Ruby shouldn't hold onto this feeling of depression." Blake said agreeing.
"Yea if she keeps this up, she'll basically become a second you." Yang points out getting Blake to look at her with a simmilar scowl that Ruby has on her face. Before she could retort the sound of gun shots can be heard from the other building causing everybody to turn around and wait for gun shots to continue till the sound of Eli screaming in pain can be heard causing all three to run out of the building to see Fang bruised and bloody tossed out the window followed by Eli before a his double barrel was tossed from inside hitting Eli in the crotch.
Five minutes beforehand
To their disappointment they found that the store was stripped of everything that wasn't nailed down. While Fang cursed himself under his breath a bottle tips over causing him to spin around to see a stranger wearing a blue hoodie with a black bandana over her face with a trench knife in hand. He imitated pulls a gun on the stranger who quickly ran up and hits him straight in the face with her brass knuckle. He regains his composure for a second and heads butt her giving him enough time to point and shoot till she grabbed a lamp and smashed it against his head causing him to miss. Once he regain his sight the stranger was making a break for the door. Eli heard the shot and ran towards the back only to run into the stranger who was now on top of him. Eli was dazed for a second before realizing that who ever this person was it was a she... and also had a nasty right hook. Eli's vision blurred for a second before returning to normal to see her racing for the door before jumping to the right out of the range of Fang. Eli quickly got up and quickly raced around the corner with his shotgun primed only for the stranger to push the double barrel upwards causing him to miss her before being jabbing in the crotch. Eli immediately fell to the ground in pain as the stranger was about to shoot him when a 357 magnum sends her flying back. Her body armor stopped the bullet and she quickly tosses the double barrel at Fang hitting him in the head. With that brief moment of pain she quickly tackles Fang and began to wail on his face with multiple blows to the head. Eli finally managed to recover from the cheap shot and quickly raced over to the woman with the axe in hand he swipes at her but she duck under and kicks him in the crotch sending him once again to the ground. She then race towards the door but Fang managed to throw his knife at her empaling it into her shoulder. After a quick moan of pain Fang pulls himself off the ground bruised and bloody and charged towards her with the intention of tackling her. Once he grabbed ahold of her waist however she grabbed his torso and immediately toss I'm out the window. Eli once again recovers and charges forward, he did managed to get one good left hook in before she grabbed his right hand and twist it around before head butting him causing blood to spray out of his nose. She then quickly knee him in the crotch before grabbing him by the shoulder and crotch tossing him out the window. Both Eli and Fang groan in pain before a double barrel was tossed out the window hitting Eli again in the crotch. She walks over with Eli's axe ready to swing when she quickly moves out of the way of a slash from Ruby's axe. The stranger looked dumbfounded for a second but then quickly recognized herself and dodged a swing from Yang and a slash from Blake. Blake then tries to slice her but delivers a jab to her left kidney sending her to the ground before kicking her hard in the gut. She then grabs ahold of Yang's crowbar and twists it giving her an opening to step hard on her foot and sucker punch Yang in the face. Ruby tries again to slash but she uses Eli's axe to interlock with Ruby's before head butting allowing the stranger to siser kick her. Yang now enraged by the stranger raced forward with blood shot eye. As she raced forward she punched the stranger with aura infused punch to gut, the woman Then knees as she tries to grasp for air, Yang quickly punches her in the face sending her flying backwards into a wall. She then gasp for air befor quickly dodging Yang's right hook that cracked the concrete. Yang turns around to see the stranger pointing a flare gun at her face, with a flash of light the flare hits Yang in the face. Sending her to the ground, luckily for the stranger, the fair only hit her in the face not the hair. As she picks herself up she turns around to get a sucker punch by Fang sending her to the ground. He held her down while Eli shot the ground around her head three times before placing the colt against her head. He was about to blow her brains all over the concrete when a loud "noooo" can be heard from around the corner. Everybody turns to see a small girl around five years old holding a twenty two MK. 3 target pistol at Eli's head.
"Don't shoot big sis... boy scum!" The kid shouts in an terrified tone as her hand shake wildly. She was Caucasian African American mixed with dirty hazel short hair with a nasty burn scar above her left face. She was wearing a pink hoodie with blue jeans and red sneakers that had seen better days.
"Marry! What did I say should this happen!" The stranger shouts in a Boston accent.
The girl now known as Marry spoke out. "But big sis Cassandra said that we should kil..."
"Cassandra is just a bitch! Not all men are animals, well present company currently." The woman said pointing to a confused Fang and Eli.
"Um hey, sorry to interrupt this... strange conversation, but how about you explain to us why you are calling us the bad guys when you just attacked us and shot Yang in the face with a flare gun." Eli said interrupting the conversation while pointing with his thumb to the two girls who were trying to wake up a delirious Yang who's face was covered in soot from the blast.
"Shut up you filthy boy!" Marry shouts as she aims her gun once again at Eli with intention to kill.
"Marry!" The woman again shouts.
"But big sis, he's telling lies and deceit just like all boy's do!" Marry remarks.
"For Christ sake I need to punch that Bitch in the face once I get back to base. Look he's telling the truth I started it, they aren't lying. My fault." The woman said.
"Your just saying that cause he has a gun on you." Marry remarks back.
"(Sigh) Fucking Cassandra, look can you guys put away your guns. I'm currently trying to detox her mind from this stuck up bitch from a few months back and well this may help." The woman said.
"Sorry, but that's a negative. You kicked our ass's almost set Yang on fire and probably destroyed Eli's bits." Fang said pointing out what just happened a few minutes ago.
"Wait, blonde still alive huh, I thought she was just another pretty face." The woman said. "You see Marry! These guys aren't the raiders from before."
"No they probably mind controll them with the white poison that all boy's poses!" Marry said.
"... Jesus, the hell kinda person teaches that to a kid?" Eli asked.
"Oh just one of those annoying zealous college social justice warriors who basically became another member Jim's Jones cult... Basically a complete nut job cowboy." The woman remarks.
"Uh Huh, Right so here's how this gonna go, we will let you get up and explain your self, if you try anything or give us an answer we don't like we will kill you." Fang said firmly.
"And what about Marry?" The woman asked sternly.
"... If she attacks no promises, otherwise we will drop her off at your homebase and leave it at that." Fang answers.
"... (sigh) alright, guess I'll agree to your terms." The woman said. Fang then gets up before walking away to grab the double barrel checking to see that their was no ammo inside. Eli quickly tossed him a shell. And the group had a more or less civilized discussion.
"My name is Olivia Shotts." The stranger said pulling off her hood and her bandanna. "I'm from a community of all females. Original these guys came from a college campus up from Danforth, when the shit hit the fan they tried escaping to Canada... that was a horrible mistake. Most of the girls died from starvation then zombies. If the lack of food or undead ass faces didn't kill you then the winter killed yah. Finally near the tail end of winter they were more or less captured by raiding group of guys who haven't seen a woman in months... what they did kinda made them more or less very distrusting of guys."
"Ok that explains why munchkin over their is pointing a gun at us." Eli said as the screen pulls out with the girl still pointing the twenty two at his head. While also showing him to be holding two bottles of water pressed against his crotch.
"Um should we take away the gun?" Blake asked feeling unease by this.
"Don't bother, the safety is on." Fang remarks as he flinched a bit in pain as Ruby placed on the final bandage over the open cut above his head.
"Good eye soldier boy. Anyways I wasn't part of the group but my cousin was, she was a school teacher and this little munchkin is her daughter." Olivia said patting Marry. "Her father from what I understand had a single night stand then slipped town the next day. It was kinda rough for the first two years but hey she was a Shotts on my fathers side of the family, their isn't a single way we go down with out a fight. Anyways she and a few teachers got the kids out of town when it all went to hell, from what I was told she died killing the last of those bastards leaving me as Lil Marry care taker."
"You mean momma left me as your care taker, so don't you forget that, boys. I'll put you down before you lay a hand on big sis." Marry said proudly.
"Right so anyways I more or less just helped out around the community, basically like the enforcer and guard. During our time in the small community some of the girls from the cheerleader or what was left of them discovered an injured man and as he begged for help some of the girls slaughtered him. They claimed that he was gonna rape them like those bandits, when in reality he asked for them to help save his son... they butchered him too. Soon anyone who wasn't a girl got close to the camp they executed on sight. After a few months their crimes were shown when they killed a baby that one of our scouts brought back. When we asked why she went on a huge rant about how men are the embodiment of evil and this entire event was all their fault." Olivia explains sounding disgusted.
"Jesus, that is some sadistic shit." Eli said
"Heh you have no idea, hic. All that happened right underneath my nose too, worst part those bitches tried to worm their ideas into Marry's head." Olivia explains.
"But they had some good points." Marry interjects.
"No Marry, no they didn't." Olivia scolds getting Marry to scold a bit.
"So what happened to them?" Ruby asked.
"Well turns out they used their former popularity to convince the students that they would rebuild society away from the evils of man. So more or less all the teachers and a few students were exiled, before hunted down. Bitch was snobby as hell but I'll give her credit she does know how to use that bow. We did catch a break with the zombie tsunami cutting them off but we lost so many to that bitch. We tried to get back to Danforth but well some punk ass bitch launch them nukes by the time we got there. So we just more or less wandered till we found a home near here. Me and Marry was just sent out to do some recon and get some building supplies. From their I guess you already know what happened next to hillbilly's nuts." Olivia said with a small smirk at the end getting an agitated stare from Eli.
"Ok, well we are currently looking for a drill and some medicine, we just found a kid with a horrible concussion and we need to play doctor if he is gonna see the next morning." Yang said as she wipes away the last of the soot revealing her face was completely fine.
"Ok... Can someone explain to me why she still breathing, cause I'm pretty sure I hit you right between the eyes." Olivia said.
"We all have secrets and so do you." Blake said sounding dead serious.
"Fair enough now I think I have an idea that may help both of us." Olivia said.
"Ok go on." Fang said.
"Well this is my second stop, you see I found this house that was under construction and is loaded with supplies I need, problem is blood Plague zombies layed their little heart in the house so I can't do it alone. So if you help me then I'll help you sound simple enough?" Olivia suggested.
The group thought about it for a moment, Fang had talked about Blood Plague zombies before but they luckily didn't ran into any of them. Unfortunately luck can only get you so far and they knew that they have to eventually deal with it.
"(Sigh) Goddamn it... alright we'll help." Eli said as he pinch the bridge of hose nose.
"Great I'll lead the way then." She said as she and Marry walked off to by the group.
"Nope if you are gonna lead then someone has to ride shotgun with you with back up." Fang said strictly.
"Alright fine then... I'll take silver eyes and emo kid here." Olivia said pointing to an uncomfortable Ruby and annoyed Blake.
"Um no, Eli and Yang." Fang said pointing to a panic Eli, and Yang cracking her knuckles with a sinister smirk on her face.
"Wha why those two?" Olivia argues back.
"Because you attacked them personally so if you try anything they will respond faster." Fang states.
"Well I don't want two people in my car wanting to gut me because I destroyed his future wives!" She said while pointing to Eli.
"Well to bad cause I don't see any other way!" Fang shouts sounding annoyed.
"No to bad for you soldier dude. Ain't no way I'm driving with those two!" Olivia bickers back.
"Guys!" Ruby shouts interjecting into the brewing conversation. "Why don't we compromise?"
The two look at each other then back at Ruby the two then think about it for a moment.
A few minutes later
A hannaman tanna song plays through the speaker as Eli sat in shotgun next to Olivia while Ruby sat in the back with Marry who was rocking out to the music. The song finally ends getting both Ruby and Eli time to breath.
"So Olivia... why are you so mean to Eli?" Ruby asked.
"Eh my daddy told me story's from his time growing up in New Orleans in the seventies... let's just say it left a bad taste in my mouth For rural boys." Olivia said.
"Fuck you I'm from Origen." Fang said flipping her off.
"Ok but still, Eli is probably the nices person I met on the side of the road. He saved me and my sister from a hoard of zombies." Ruby said.
"Eh ok I'll give credit to the red neck, he has a heart of gold... for small children left aside in the road." Olivia said with a smirk.
"Oh for fuck sake, well fine so what if my playground was a decaying barn at least I didn't grew up in the the toxic, obesity, narcissistic phone zombie filled concrete jungles you call a home." Eli said placing on his best hipster impression.
"Watch what you say, Boy! Nobody disrespect a Bostonian with out breaking a few bones." Olivia threatened.
"I'll rather take my chances with a cooked out juggernaut, and who you calling boy I'm taller and I bet older bitch. Eli said sulking.
"Enough!" Ruby shouts before Olivia could replie. "Oum it's like taking care of children. So your a city girl and he's a country boy, can't you two work together?"
After a second to think about what Ruby said the two immediately broke down in a fit of laughter.
"Phsss girl please" Olivia chuckles trying hard to catch her breath.
"Heh heh yea Ruby this isn't some Queen song. City and county fold don't work well." Eli laughs agreeing with Olivia.
"Oh my god I was thinking the same thing. Wait just a moment." Olivia said before pushing down on the tape player ejecting the kids tape and placing in Queen. Soon the old radio began to play and Queen began to play.
"Another one bites the dust!" The radio starts off before Olivia changes it to the next song.
"Don't stop believing..." the radio plays and soon the song plays out. Olivia starts to sing along before Eli joins in and the two sing in cores with the song. Both Marry and Ruby covered their ears from the horrible singing. Ruby was glad that the two stoped arguing but wasn't sure if this was a good trade off.
After a few minutes the car pull aside and the four gets out of the an old black muscle car. A few seconds later the truck pulls up and the rest of the crew gets out of the car.
"How was the trip Ruby?" Yang asked seeing Ruby groaning in annoyance.
"Yang... I think I found something more annoying then your puns... car chariocy karaoke." Ruby moans as she walks over to the back of the car to retrieve her rifle from the back of the car.
"Oh don't listen to her. Me and cowboy here sang like angels, isn't that right Marry?" Olivia said turning to Marry who was already making a hanging motion.
"Well you don't have no taste in music munchkin." Eli said proudly causing her to change from suicide to your gonna die slit throat motion.
"(Sigh) Still have to work on her... Right so Fang was it. What's the plan send hic down there with the power of the southern pride?" She asked fang getting an annoyed look from Eli who again flips her off.
Fang didn't answer her at first but rather just looked down at the constitution house. The red mist identifing that it was indeed a Plague heart. Blood Plague zombies seemed to be crawling everywhere just waiting to pounce on someone. He didn't like the number of zombies and the fact that the house had way to many openings as well. What he did noticed however was the number of tanks filled with gass lying around the facility.
"Well my suggestion would be that we have Ruby up here guarding Marry and providing us cover from up here why'll all of us head down their. You, Yang, and Eli will provide cover why'll Blake and I take out the Plague heart." Fang said suggesting his plan.
"I can take care of myself, I'm five years old." Marry humph with a scowl.
"Well that doesn't sound like a bad idea, except being paired up with cousin fucker here." Olivia said as she pulls a shotgun from a side sheath in the car. It was a sawed of Remington shotgun with a makeshift iron sight and a Boston bruins symbol on it along with a scantly dressed woman added to the barrel.
"Bite me you limp dick hipster." Eli said with a twitch in his head as he loads his double barrel.
"Enough you two, play nice." Fang said as he pulls out his his scar looking it over before deciding to save the military rounds for another day and went with his revolver so he can bring more Molotov's instead.
The two agreed in a hateful growl way. The group equips what they need and heads down to the house ready for the fight at hand. They snucked into the back with Fang and Blake taking out the zombies quietly. The red mist that the plague heart produces burns their eyes like mild tear gas. They couldn't do much about that and simply ignore it. Once inside the group got into position and waited on each other. Soon on the count of three Blake and Fang lit up their molotov and tossed it at the blood heart causing it to screech out attracting the blood Plague zombies. They all raced forward but Ruby managed to quickly take down some of the zombies from a distance, or in some cases getting multiple kills with a Well place shot to an oil tank sending them flying like a inferno confetti. Inside the Yang used akimbo wielded two sawed off forty four revolvers blasting at the incoming hoard that busted through the door, once she was out of ammo she tossed them aside into the crowd before racing forward with her crowbar with a mad smile on her face. Meanwhile Eli and Olivia were busy blasting the zombies skull's that jumped through the window. They kept up a good system of shooting till they were empty then the other took over but then the zombies broke in through another door causing them to split up. Once Olivia ran out of ammo she quickly pulls out a bat and quickly swats them back with the bat. One unfortunate zombie head was hit so hard it send his skull out the window into they sky only for a 308. Hunting round to pierce its skull. With Eli he quickly placed his Double barrel away and pulls out his 1911 hitting the zombies with dead accuracy before placing it back into his houlster once he depleted his clip. He then takes his axe out and quickly spins around chopping off the zombies limbs then drop kicking a zombie back before quickly blasting its head off with the double barrel. While the group fought off the zombie Fang and Blake were either burning or shooting the heart while keeping their distance from the flame and it's defenses. After an excruciating three minutes the heart finally burst causing all the blood Plague zombies to fall to the ground.
"That... was horrible." Olivia huffs.
"Well... at least we didn't get bit." Yang said huffing while completely covered in blood. "Ugh and I just happened to wear white... great, just great."
"Well at least hic over their isn't talking about his cousin." Olivia said regaining her breath.
"Up yours city bitch!" Eli retorts back.
"Bitch please, you wish!" Olivia retorts.
The two began to argue back and forth shouting louder and more viciously while Fang, Blake, and Yang watch from the sidelines.
"Was this... what it was like when me and Weiss argued that one time?" Blake asked watching from the sidelines.
"Yep." Yang answers by popping the P.
"... I'm sorry for that then, cause I hate watching them fight." Blake said getting nods from Fang and Yang.
"... Five buck says that they are gonna kiss." Fang said getting both Blake and Yang to turn to him in disbelief. "What, this totally reminds me of those tsundere characters."
"Meaning?" Yang asked.
"Hates the fact that she is in love with. So like I said five bucks that she's gonna kiss him before they leave." Fang explains.
"Gross dude... I'm down put me for double." Yang said with a cheeky smile. Blake just sighs and leave the room.
After ten minutes of searching, Olivia and Marry retrieved what they were looking for while Fang finally found what they were looking for. They were now currently packing up their suplies ready to leave till Eli desided to have a talk with Olivia.
"Um, look Olivia." Eli said scratching the back of his head.
"Hm oh what is it cowboy?" Olivia asked as she place her bag inside the trunk of the car.
"I would like to apologize for the way I um insulted you. It was pretty childish of me." Eli said while scratching the back of his head.
"Yep it was." Olivia said as she closed the back of the trunk and walked to the front of the car to notice Eli looking at her in the side door mirror. While looking into his eyes a devious idea springs into into her head. "Actually, it should be apologizing."
"Wait really?" Eli asked completely dumbfounded. The rest of the group were currently talking about what to do next when they overheard Eli and Olivia talking. The group quites down and began to listen. As they listen they all had different reactions to the conversation. With Ruby she smiles believing that they are finally stop fighting and maybe become friends. With Yang she thought she was gonna lure him close before stealthy cheep shot him again. Blake felt a sense of deja vu, she then remembers the ship yard with her and Weiss making up after the huge argument. Inside Fangs head he was thinking about what If the scene was in anime form.
"So anyways thanks for your apology, and again I'm sorry for what I said." Eli slightly chuckles to himself.
"Ah don't feel bad about that, besides... Yang still owes Fang ten dollars now." Olivia said with a smirk causing everybody to freeze for a moment. Before anyone could do anything Olivia quickly grabs Eli by his tank top and pressed her lips against his catching him off by surprise. The group was completely shocked by what they saw. It wasn't even a fake kiss but a legit full minute kiss of passion. After the full minute went by she let's go of the Now dumbfounded Eli before walking away and entering her car before driving away.
"... Um what just happened?" Eli said blinking with that continued stare of complete surprise look on his face as he watch the car drive down the road with possible the most strangest woman he had ever met.
