This is the next chapter in our adventure of school love and good friends. For those that might have noticed I did intentionally make Carmine and Delilah fit for hilarious reasons that I hope can play out well. Because I now have the beginning set I can delve into my own AU while sprinkling cannon to stay relevant. So as always RWBY is owned by Rooster Teeth and its associates, my characters are my own so now on to the story.
Having a class with Professor Port in the morning was not the best thing for any student as he would go on long tangents about his youth, granted he did teach the students but there were times when one could almost pinpoint the exact moment in a lecture when he would veer off. As he was recounting a tale Omar was sitting behind Yang with his folder up as he played Pokémon against Ruby, she had a decent team but she knew nothing of breeding for IV's or natures so he won every match. As he peeked around his folder he saw Weiss jab Ruby in the side and angrily point at her notes as the Professor began teaching again. Looking to his right Omar saw Delilah looking at a map of Vale as she wrote down different locations she zoomed in on, Carmine was diligently taking notes, and Levina was passively jotting down notes while looking at her scroll. Looking at the board he saw the Professor illustrate the different weak points, silently laughing he remembered how Mavis would send him out into the forest to recon the Grimm that were skulking around just outside of the walls defenses. When he found a group he would have to visually document everything about them that could be exploited, sometimes he would get lucky and would go unnoticed others not so much. A message on his scroll caught his attention, it was Ruby demanding another rematch back in the dorm room after classes ended. When she peeked back he smiled and nodded his head, shaking a clenched fist she silently projected redemption for her fallen Pokémon.
In the afternoon Omar walked with Ruby and Blake back to their room, Ruby was selecting the Pokémon she would use for the rematch when she bumped into the door to which Blake opened. Omar entered after them and saw how their beds were arranged, when Ruby jump up to her bed Omar freaked out, "Ruby is that safe I mean the bed is hanging from the ceiling by two ropes, Blake I don't think you're in a particularly safe place either if the only thing holding up that bed is a stack of books." Ruby laughed as she hopped back down and pulled out a chair from the desk, "I shall avenge my fallen comrades, prepare yourself Omar!" sighing Omar grabbed one of the other chairs and accepted Ruby's challenge. After several battles Ruby leaned back rocking on the chair, "man why can't I beat you?" Omar laughed as Yang and Weiss walked into the room, Omar scooted by the book shelf to let the two pass as Yang threw her books at the shelf knocking a few of the ones on top down to the floor. Bending down to get them he noticed a book with a familiar title. Picking the book up off the floor he looked at the cover examining it, 'Ninjas of Love, why does that seem familiar?' as he opened the book he heard a sharp inhale to his left as he scanned one of the pages. Reading a line under his breath, "and then Kurosake slowly grabbed Sasuka's," the heat he felt rising up his neck from reading that one line could have started a fire as Blake rushed over grabbing the book from his hands and stuffed it under her pillow. Yang turned to see what the commotion was about when she saw Omar standing frozen as his face was a deep crimson along with Blake's, she burst into laughter almost falling on the ground. Hearing Yang laugh caused him to turn a shade darker, "oh my god, your face is so funny right now! What happened? You look super embarrassed." Remembering the title again clicked in Omar's head as to where he had seen the book before, 'Faye had that same book in her room, along with another few shelves full.' What Yang said next caused Omar to zero in his ears, "you look so cute right now with how embarrassed you are. Did you find Blake's naughty book?" Ruby made a disgusted face as she looked at Blake, "I thought I asked you to put that in a place where somebody can't just grab it." Blake was equally red as she apologized, clearing his throat Omar decided that he might not have a better chance, "Yang?" her laughter died down to a giggle when she answered, "yes." "I am still new to Vale and since I remember you said you knew the area pretty well I was wondering…..would you like to hang out in the city this weekend?" Ruby, Weiss, and Blake held their breath as Yang casually smiled standing in front of Omar. Breaking into a wide grin she poked him in the chest, "it's a date then." He couldn't help but smile when Yang held her sides stifling another laugh as Omar felt his lip get wet, touching it with his hand he saw blood dripping from his nose. Weiss huffed handing him a tissue, "here I don't want blood to stain the carpet." Blocking his nose Omar smiled, "well I think that is my cue to leave before I start gushing blood or embarrass myself further." As he went to leave Yang said, "Meet me by the air dock by eight sharp, I'll give you the best tour of the city." Closing the door behind him Omar walked back to the room with a wide smile.
When he entered his room he saw the katana Mavis sent him sitting on the bed, grabbing it he propped it against his desk as he started to climb his ladder when Delilah gasped grabbing the sword. As she held it she slowly inspected it from every angle before bombarding Omar with questions, "where did you get this? Do you know what kind of sword this is? Have you any idea how rare it is to even see a sword made by Sengo? Is this yours?" stepping off the ladder Omar tried to process all of her questions when Carmine got up from his desk and handed Omar a note as he left the room, "here, it was attached to the sword when I walked in." taking the note Omar read it, 'I see that you forgot the sword, since this was a gift I can't tell you to use it but it would be nice if you kept it with you since mom got it for you. ~Mavis~' stretching his hand out to Delilah she handed it to him, sitting in his chair he traced a finger over the decorative tsuba. The cloud design etched in gold and silver stood out, taking a breath Omar began answering Delilah's questions, "My sister had this delivered from home, no I do not know what kind of sword this is, I have no idea who Sengo is, and yes the sword is mine." Sitting on the floor crossed legged Delilah spoke, "well Sengo was a famous weapon smith back in the early years before the formation of the current kingdoms. A weapon made by him was guaranteed indestructible, never losing its edge or power no matter how many battles it experienced. The reason why I know it's a Sengo sword is because it matches the same one in one of the books I read when researching on what weapon I wanted. If you unsheathe it you will see the horimono is an engraved dragon, one of his designs that proves it is an original. He only made four blades, each one in a different style but just as powerful. If I remember correctly they were the Great Sword of the Abyss, the second was the Ravenous Nodachi, the third was the Atmokinetic Falchion, and the final one was the Propagating Cloud Katana. The abilities of each sword is unknown but wars had been fought just too even see one of these blades in action. And you are holding one of those blades, the cloud katana if I'm looking at it correctly." Leaning the blade against his shoulder he sighed, "Am I going to get jumped if I walk around with this thing in public?" Delilah shook her head, "most people don't know about the swords, and even those that do know about the dozens of replicas that are in circulation. You should be fine to that around town." Omar sighed, "Good because I didn't want to get jumped on my date with Yang."
Levina appeared right next to Omar surprised, "you have a date with Yang!" both Delilah and Omar fell over as Levina appeared out of nowhere, Delilah grabbing her chest growled, "do not just appear out of thin air like that you'll give someone a heart attack!" Levina smirked helping Delilah up, "sorry I was going to cancel my semblance outside of the room but you two looked like you were in a deep conversation and I had to use the bathroom. But enough about that, Omar you asked Yang out?" Delilah's ear perked up as her tail stayed locked in position behind her as she listened intently. Omar scratching the back of his head as he got up answered, "Yeah I did, it was not done in the smoothest way but she said yes." Both girls crowded him, "when, when is the date? You have to let us come with, we promise to stay out of sight." "It's this Saturday." Delilah grabbed Omar by the collar, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S THIS SATURDAY!" turning away he pleaded, "geez I'm sorry I asked and she said Saturday, should I ask for a different day?" dropping him Delilah crossed her arms as she thought, "no that might ruin whatever chance you have currently," biting her thumb she asked, "what time did she say for you two to meet up at?" "Eight in the morning." Her tail swished slowly as she thought, Omar sat confused, "why does it matter?" an evil smile creeped slowly across her face, "well when you horribly mess up I wanna be there to laugh." Standing up and giving her a hard glare Omar held his hand out, "how about a bet then, if my date goes well then you have to tell Carmine that you like him," looking between his hand and his face Delilah questioned, "that's it?" "In front of the whole class." Levina who took Omar's seat gasped slightly as she watched, Delilah squinted, "ok and if it goes wrong then you have to spend a whole day wearing the girls uniform, make up and all." Omar's eye slightly twitched at the last part, "fine that's the bet for my date now what about yours?" Delilah laughed, "as if my date will go wrong." "Then how about you do my homework and every project for a full month if it goes south." Leaning on one foot Delilah smirked, "and when it doesn't like I already said?" "Then I will pay you five million lien, fair price right?" laughing Delilah shook his hand, "fine you have a deal."
The rest of the week passed without much incident, on Friday Omar confirmed with Yang the time they would meet up at for the ship going to Vale. When he asked her where they would be going all she said was, "that's a secret, trust me you'll love it." As he was lounging around the room Delilah sitting at her desk asked, "Omar what are you wearing tomorrow for your date?" Omar laughed, "I thought you wanted it to go wrong?" "Not intentionally, you seem like a nice guy but you keep to yourself a lot. If going on this date can help open you up to the team then I don't mind losing the bet." Going to his dresser he pulled out a plain shirt and a pair of jeans, "I was thinking about this." Her mouth dropped open as she pulled out her scroll dialing a number, "hello, Lev? It's me we have a date emergency come back to the room now!" Omar stood confused as Delilah pushed past him rummaging through his drawers, Levina burst into the room out of breath minutes later. As she caught her breath she asked, "Delilah what kind of emergency are we facing?" holding up some of his plain shirts Delilah shuddered, "he was planning to go on a date in these." Levina gasped comically, "We cannot allow that, you sit down while we figure out what you'll wear." Omar sighed, "why does it matter she'll probably wear something normal." Delilah turned giving him an evil look, "those that know not of a maiden's heart need not speak at this moment." "What?" Levina leaned back, "she means shut up and let us work, or rather go train with Carmine or something." Scratching the back of his head Omar got up grabbing his sword and went to find Carmine.
Ending up at the training building Omar found Carmine watching the various matches that were going on. Standing next to him Carmine asked, "What brings you here?" watching the fight Omar sighed, "The girls are arranging an outfit for my date with Yang tomorrow, so they kicked me out of the room." Carmine grabbed Iron Battalion from the weapon rack where he hung it up, "I've been wondering ever since the forest how strong you are, how about a match?" Omar looked at Carmine with a blank look, "that'd be a pretty boring thirty seconds, so I'll have to pass." Irritation clear on Carmine's face he gritted, "you're not as strong as you think." With the same blank look Omar replied, "honestly I don't even need to use this weapon, but since I can see you won't take no for an answer how about a bet." Strapping Iron Battalion onto his arm Carmine straightened up, "your right I'm not letting this go, and fine what's the bet?" Walking toward an empty ring Omar explained, "It's simple really, if you can make me draw my sword then I'll listen to whatever you say, but if I can knock you out of the ring without touching you then on your date with Delilah I want you to be as rude and inconsiderate as possible. Since you don't want to ruin team cohesiveness I'd say winning should be your top priority." Carmine clenched his jaw as he studied Omar's face, 'I can't tell if he's being serious or not. Either way I have the advantage, I just have to make him draw and I win there is no way he can throw me out of the ring without touching me.' Both entered the ring standing opposite sides of each other, Carmine drew his sword as Omar stood resting his sword on his shoulder completely relaxed. A small crowd formed as both stared each other down, Carmine got in a low stance raising his shield and leveling his sword. When Omar yawned Carmine saw an opening taking a step forward only to feel something slam into the inside of his left calf. Looking down he saw a pole retracting back into the floor when he was hit with another pole directly on the right side of his face knocking him down, scrambling back to his feet Carmine realized exactly why Omar looked so calm. His semblance allowed him to manipulate aura and use it to form almost anything, he didn't even have to touch Carmine to hit him. Activating his own semblance Carmine banked on the boost in speed to get in close so he could force Omar to draw, if he put everything into his speed he was sure he could close the distance before Omar could react. When Omar started to blink Carmine sprinted forward, he was almost two feet in front of him when he felt something large slam into his right hip. Another pole slammed into his right leg knocking him off balance when another hit him knocking him off his feet, a pole struck Carmine in the ribs knocking him high into the air as he tried to process how he ended up in the current situation. As he fell back down another pole shot out striking Carmine in the direct center of his chest sending him flying out of the ring and slamming into the wall behind him. Carmine laid face down as his body throbbed in pain, his could not comprehend how he could have lost so easily, 'How? I'm always faster in my semblance. There's no way he could have reacted that fast with his eyes closed even if he knew I was coming straight at him.' Some of the other student that were watching the match asked Carmine if he was ok since he hadn't moved since being slammed into the wall, Omar sighed as he walked out of the ring stopping at Carmine's side. Sitting him up Omar patted Carmine on the shoulder, "everyone has to lose at some point, and you can forget the bet I was just board really. Well I guess I'll wander around for a while, see you later." Carmine watch as he casually walked away, 'we can't be a team if he's going to have that kind of attitude, but it seems like he only listens to people stronger then him. That doesn't really help me since I lost pretty fast, no I can't be thinking like that I have to find a way to get him to at least cooperate with everyone.' Picking himself up Carmine dusted himself off and headed to the showers.
Levina was sitting at her desk as she watched Delilah toss every single one of Omar clothes into a large bag, a few minutes after he left she cursed, "ha that idiot thinks I'm helping him, well we'll just see how his date goes when he has nothing to wear. Think he can mess with me, he'll see." Levina shook her head, "aren't we supposed to be a team? Like work together and back each other up and all that?" leaving him a set of clothes to sleep in Delilah laughed, "yeah like that'll happen, look we may be a team but we are not friends." Levina sighed under her breath, "I can see that." Levina left the room as Delilah laughed maniacally, walking down the hall for some time she ended up at the door to team RWBY. Inside she could hear laughing, she slowly raised a hand to knock when to door was opened by Blake. The two stared at each other for a moment before Blake gave a warm smile, "Is there something wrong?" Levina nodded her head as Blake let her in, sitting down in a chair Yang provided she asked, "What's wrong?" looking at her hands she sighed, "I'm jealous of you girls." Ruby answered confused, "why are you jealous?" "Because before I could knock on the door I heard you all laughing, it's something that my team doesn't do. Carmine is always off in the battle arena training, Omar just wonders off for most of the afternoon and only comes back when we're all getting ready to sleep, and Delilah ignores any kind of friendly conversation I try to have with her. I never had friends growing up, I thought coming here might change that but seeing them kinda ruins that hope." Both Ruby and Yang smiled in unison, "Nope," Yang gave her sister a sideways hug, "you have me and Ruby as friends, so that's plus two friends." Blake asked, "I don't mean to pry but you said you didn't have friends growing up, what did you mean by that?" Levina thought for a moment before answering, "I never knew my parents, I was raised in an orphanage until I was around eight when I discovered my semblance. I was adopted by what seemed like a nice guy, the only thing that seemed a little off was his deep hatred for the White Fang. I get it they are bad people but he just seemed to go the extra mile with hating them, after explaining it to me I kind of saw where he was coming from. The Faunus wanted equality but the White Fang were ruining those chances by giving Faunus a bad name, it wasn't until I was much older that I found out how much he hated them. He got to the point that he thought all Faunus were potential White Fang recruits, I just couldn't take it and we got into a really bad fight." Levina's hand slowly crept up her side feeling her scar throb slightly, "I left and was taken in by a nice Faunus couple who helped me attend this school. For a while I was starting to think that way he did, but seeing them and what they did for me changed that." Blake smiled at her last sentence, Ruby crying gave Levina a hug, "be strong we are here for you." Levina gave Ruby a playful hug, "thanks would it be ok if I hung out here for a little bit?" Ruby instantly perked up disappearing in a flurry of rose petals as she came back holding up various board games with her eyes sparkling, "which do you want to play first?" Levina laughed as she picked one, the girls set up the game as Weiss explained the rules. With everything set up Levina laughed along with the others as they got the game underway.
In the morning Delilah woke up early and watched as Omar sleepily got out of bed and took a shower, when he got out she waited to see his reaction when he would see all of his clothes gone. He went straight to Carmine's dresser opening the bottom drawer pulling out a button up shirt and a nice pair of jeans, he looked at her bed with a sleepy expression, "I lived with three girls who enjoyed tormenting me, you're gonna have to try better than getting rid of all my clothes if you want to phase me." Heading back into the bathroom to change Delilah cursed, "Damnit I didn't think he would hide an extra pair of clothes with Carmine's things." Stepping out of the bathroom Omar was dressed in a nice grey and white stripped short sleeve button up shirt, he had on a grey undershirt and a pair of dark blue jeans with his black gym shoes. His hair was pushed back and parted on the side, grabbing his scroll and wallet he left the room. The walk to the air dock gave him time to think of what he could do to woo Yang, granted he didn't have any experience what so ever in the matters of dating. When he got to the dock he saw the blazing blonde hair glow in the sunlight, he was still a distance away but when Yang turned in his direction he clearly saw the lilac eyes as crystal clear as he would if he was in front of her. As he continued walking he notice a flash of red from behind a bush to his left, and a swish of a tail to his right. Still walking he closed his eyes concentrating on the two locations as there was a lot of people for the time of day it was, Ruby Weiss and Blake were hiding in the bushes to the left and Delilah was in the right but it looked like she was whispering to something. He couldn't see anything next to her and assumed she had an ear piece talking to Levina, laughed to himself he picked up the pace reaching Yang as another student approached her. The student looked older then Yang with slick back brown hair, and designer clothes. The student put a hand on Yang's shoulder, "hey come on I'm just trying to be friendly, and a pretty girl like you deserves to be shown around town be an upstanding guy like me." Yang laughed, "Yeah that has got to be the most overused pick up line I've heard ever. Sorry but I'm waiting for my friend who should be here any minute." The guy did not let up, "come on ditch the loser and hang out with me." At that moment Omar regretted leaving his sword in the room as he was with in eye sight of Yang. Yang smiled and waved as the guy looked who she was waving at, seeing Omar he laughed, "Seriously that's what you're hanging out with, wow seriously I'm a major upgrade compared to that." When Omar got close enough he smiled, "sorry I'm late had to find my clothes for today." The guy laughed again, "You mean find clothes that actually fit you, seriously this fat tub of lard is who you were waiting for." Omar had a stocky build but was still athletic enough to do free running thanks to the early years of his training. Yang grabbed Omar by the hand and led him onto the ship, "sorry guy but he is a lot nicer then you are." Just as the guy was going to protest Omar curled in his pinky sending a pole directly into his groin dropping him, as they were taking their seats he saw Ruby and her team with Delilah and Levina scramble to get on the ship.
Stepping off the ship Yang stood close to Omar, exiting the dock building she smiled holding her hands up in the air, "welcome to Vale, home of signal academy, some of the best nightclubs around, some good dinners, and yours truly." Omar smiled clapping, "well done miss tour guide." Yang took a small bow before motioning for Omar, "come on telling you about all the things here is one thing, I'll show you all of the greatest spots." He followed Yang for most of the day as she showed him various spots she would hang out at during her time at signal. The most time spent was at an arcade she and Ruby would visit sometimes, Yang showed him the game cabinet that she still had the high score on, "yeah I'll have the high score for like ever, nobody can ever beat it." Omar raised an eyebrow, "and if I can beat it on one try?" Yang laughed, "As impossible as that is if you can beat my high score in one try I'll give you a kiss." Omar heard a gasp from a few games away as he smiled, "deal, and to make it even more challenging I'll play both player one and two." Yang giggled leaning behind him on one of the other games as Omar grabbed both light guns starting up the game, 'Time Crisis 3 huh, lucky Faye had that gaming mood one month. Though I think the reaction time on this game will be a lot slower than the one she made.' As the game began its intro cinematic Yang added, "You have to use the hand gun only unless it switches the gun for you." Omar replied, "Wait there are other weapon besides the hand gun?" Yang smiled even more as he started to play the game. Her smile quickly disappeared as he was not only taking no damage but also keeping a relative even score for both sides, he even went as far as not looking at the screen for a brief moment to talk to her. "So what do your parents do?" Yang still in disbelief at the confidence he had to not look while playing answered, "my dad teaches classes at signal, my uncle too….. I don't know about my mom." "Is she a stay at home mom?" "No she left me and my dad when I was a few months old." Omar turned back to the screen, "I'm sorry I didn't, " "it's fine it's not something I broadcast when introducing myself, what about you what do your parents do?" "My mom runs a kingdom, and my dad is dead." Yang smiled asking, "Which kingdom does she run?" "I think the name if you look it up is Hanami." Yang squinted a little pulling out her scroll searching, when she found it he could hear the gasp, "seriously like seriously!" Omar using the gun shushed Yang, "hey hey hey not so loud, I don't need the unwanted attention. Besides it's not like I'm royalty or anything, in fact it's the opposite I don't get special treatment from my mom. Rather I don't get any kind of treatment at all, I haven't spoken to her in like six of seven years." Yang recovered quickly showing concern, "what do you mean you haven't spoken to her, is it like a quick hi and bye or what?" "it's like I haven't seen her in person in like six or seven years, my sister Mavis tells me what she told her to tell me." Yang deflated a little, "I'm sorry that must have been a little lonely, I'm sorry but can I ask how your dad died?" Omar's grip on the guns visibly tightened, "he was killed by members of the White Fang and Mercenaries hired by the Schnee Dust Company protecting me." Yang was visibly shocked, "wait Schnee Dust….Weiss?" "Her dad wanted the mines in the kingdom so he hired a large group of mercenaries to attack the city, it just so happened that the White Fang was attacking at the same time. I know Weiss had nothing to do with it, and my mom took care of reminding him the consequences of taking such action again." As Yang was about to say something the game started flashing, "looks like I beat your high score with both sides." Looking at the game Omar's high score surpassed Yang's by a million topping out at four million each side. Putting the guns back Omar felt his scroll vibrate, excusing himself he took it out and saw a message from Carmine, 'Hey sorry for bothering you but I was wondering if you'd seen Delilah, it's almost time for us to meet up but I haven't seen her anywhere.' Walking around a few game cabinets Omar stood behind the group of girls that were following him and Yang, "hey Delilah Carmine's asking for you, you'd better text him." With all of the games making noise and other patrons walking and talking about them screaming did not raise any alarm. Delilah grabbing her chest asked, "How'd you know we were here?" Omar gave her a blank look, "I saw all of you scramble to get on the air ship into town, but seriously text Carmine he's waiting for you." Walking back to Yang Delilah pulled out her scroll and began texting.
As it got later Yang rubbed her stomach, "hey are you hungry cause I'm starving." Omar pulled out his scroll and asked, "There is a place that I know about, wanna go?" Yang had a sleepy expression, "does it have food?" Scrolling through the page he answered, "It should, it's not too far from here." Yang nodded her head, "if I wait any longer you're going to have to carry me." Omar smiled, "come on then we don't want you wasting away now." After walking for a few minutes the sky turned dark, Yang could hear faint music playing as they rounded the corner and saw a large night club. There was a long line in the front stretching around the block, Omar walked through the side alley leading to a smaller more private entrance. The guard standing in front of the side door had to be at least seven feet tall and was a solid wall of muscle, he looked like he could snap a bear in half. Dressed in a tuxedo he looked almost out of place, he was more suited for a suit of armor or gladiator gear. As both Yang and Omar walked up to him he put a hand to his ear and said something, when they were in front of him he bowed, "welcome sir." Omar scratching the back of his head relied, "hey Vlad, is my sister in a meeting? If she is I don't wanna disrupt it, we could go through the front if we have to." Vlad shook his head, "the will not be necessary, I have already informed her that you are here with a guest and she requests you meet her in the executive suite. Please right this way." Vlad opened the door as Yang looked mildly shocked, Omar turning to her answered, "my sister owns this club and a few others, from what I remember there is a staffed kitchen so we can eat here if you want?" Yang put on her trademarked smile grabbing Omar's hand, "well since we're getting the royal treatment let not waste it." Omar felt the warmth from Yang's hand, wanting to hold on a little longer his wish was crushed as she let go as soon as they entered the coat check. Another man in a suit stood before them, "if you would follow me please." Opening the door behind him they followed as he walked past other people lounging around the room, walking up a flight of stairs he opened a red door near the end of the hall, "please continue forward Miss Sanzaki is waiting for you." Omar nodded taking the lead as Yang curiously looked around the hall taking notice of the various painting lining the walls. Walking into a larger room with couches and a glass table Omar sat down, "Yang you can sit, my sister is probably in a meeting right now. Someone will show up to lead us to a private room, I'll see about getting us some dinner then." Yang nodded taking a seat next to him picking up one of the magazines on the table, flipping it open she skimmed the page until a door opened nearby.
A few heel clicks down the hall and a tall woman stood before Omar and Yang, "it's good to see you little brother." Omar got up and did introductions, "Donna this is Yang a friend from school, Yang this is Donna my older sister." Donna stood at 6'6", her hair was in a short pixie cut style, she wore light makeup with neutral tones, she wore a formal red dress with red high heels with a red feather boa draped on her shoulders. Omar looking behind her asked, "Sorry if we were interrupting one of your meetings, we were in the area and thought about dropping by to get something to eat. But if you're busy we could go," Donna smiled cutting him off, "nonsense my meeting was wrapped up anyway." Yang's stomach growled loudly causing a bit of embarrassment, Donna motioned for them to follow as she led them to an elaborate room with a view of the club below. The room was beyond fancy as everything looked like it cost a fortune, sitting down at the long table a girl dressed in a maid outfit appeared from behind Donna. Donna stepped to the side as the girl gave Yang and Omar a glass of water, "Omar you remember Virgo, she will take your orders. There is no real set menu so order what ever you feel like, I'm sure the kitchen can accommodate you to the best of their abilities. If you'll excuse me I need to do one last thing before I can join you." When she left Virgo stepped closer, "what would you like to eat?" Yang still looking around the room asked, "Can I get a cheese burger with fries and a coke?" Virgo writing the order down asked, "How would you like the burger and what kind of fries would you like?" Yang pondered for a second before answering, "Medium well and just normal fries with a lot of ketchup on the side." Virgo bowed then turned to Omar, "and what would you like young master?" Omar sighed, "I already told you that you could drop the master bit. I'll have a burger too medium well, I want Swiss cheese, that really thick bacon coated in brown sugar, and sweet potato fries with a bottle of ketchup and a coke." Virgo bowed again, "understood I will put the order in now and it should be ready soon." Excusing herself Virgo left as Yang set into Omar, "so that was your sister, she seemed nice." "Yeah she can be when she is getting what she wants, if her deal would not have been going well we would have gotten a different greeting." Yang nodded her head, "and the maid?" "Virgo works for my sister." "And the whole master thing?" "Goes with the maid bit." "This is a really big room for just two people." "Donna entertains clients here sometimes so this room was kinda made to be overly fancy." Yang took a sip of her water looking through the window to the club down below, "does she ever go down there or is she always up here?" "Most of the time she is down there unless she has a client or is doing business." Yang saw Omar shift in his seat, "you're not used to this are you?" he shook his head, "honestly this is the nicest she has ever been to me in all the time I can remember. It's actually a little weird really, most of the time they usually just ignore me unless they want me to do something." Yang noticed the change in his tone and quickly changed the subject, "so what's home like?"
Their food came by a few minutes later, Yang drooled at how the burger looked, "you can not be serious, this looks to good to be a burger." Omar laughed as he picked up some fries, "well the kitchen was made to serve gourmet items, it still looks really good though." Yang took out her scroll and took a picture of her burger, "I am sending this to Ruby, Weiss, and Blake they would not believe me otherwise." They began eating as Yang would looked down at the club, about halfway through the meal Donna came back into the room. No longer wearing her red dress she had on a loose white blouse that was buttoned up half way showing plenty of cleavage, she had on denim short shorts, a pair of black flats and her signature orange feather coat with her sunglasses resting on top of her head. Taking a seat next to Omar she sat cross legged picking a few fries off his plate, "man that meeting was beyond boring." As she ate Omar poked her in the side, "those were my fries if you wanted some order some for yourself." Donna grabbed Omar's head bringing it to her chest, "aw come on, I'm your sister you have to be nice to me." Omar whispered under his breath, "funny that didn't stop you from being a complete bitch to me when I was a kid." Donna heard him but said nothing as he pushed her back grabbing a few fries. Grabbing another Donna looked at Yang, "so are you two on a date?" Omar with a board look answered, "Yang is showing me around the city, the only place I know is this club." Donna flicked him behind the ear, "I wasn't asking you, Yang was it, so are you?" Yang finishing her fries answered with a smile, "Omar is a good friend who asked me to show him around, though I gotta say this club is real nice." Donna looked down at the dance floor, "kid if you half of what it took to make this place what it is today you wouldn't call it a nice club." Yang sat a little confused until Donna turned back smiling, "the best club in all of Vale is what I'm aiming for, that and owning every other club, bar, restaurant, diner, and every other place people go to unwind and cut loose." Omar pushing his plate in front of Donna asked, "Don't you already own most of Mistral, Vacuo, and Atlas?" Donna corrected him, "I own half of Atlas, but that damn Schnee won't give up the rights to the remaining half. It will be mine in due time, but enough about me how are you doing in school?" Omar leaned back in his chair, "I'm on a team now, though they really aren't much help in a fight." Donna flicked Omar behind the ear again, "duh Mavis trained you, and mom trained her so of course the kids not from back home would be weaker. They didn't go through the same training we did, be nice to them you have to work together for the next four years remember." Omar sighed, "Alright I guess." Donna looked to Yang, "so how has school been for you?" Yang smiled, "my little sister is the leader of our team, and it's been fun so far. Though Omar here gave everyone a heart attack when that Grimm took his arm." Donna raised an eyebrow, "you let a Grimm take your arm, what were you doing?" glancing at Yang for a brief moment, "nothing I got distracted by how weak it was." Donna put her elbow on the table leaning her head into her palm, "yeah ok, you have to be careful cause one day you're gonna run into someone who is pretty strong. And since your aura doesn't work the same it could turn into a real problem is they don't give you a chance to heal." Omar rolled his eyes, "like I'll find someone strong enough to give me that much grief, unless they're from back home I kinda doubt the fight would last more then a few minutes." Donna gave him a concerned look, "I'm serious, Mavis would tear apart the entire town if you got hurt. And since I'm in the process of owning most of Vale it would be a problem for me to." Yang had the same concerned looked, "hey she's right if a Grimm could take one of your arms than you have to be more careful, promise ok?" Omar sighed, "Alright I promise to be careful." Donna laughed under her breath, 'so he won't listen to me but make any kind of promise for her, this might be an interesting piece of information.'
They continued small talk for some time until Omar's scroll vibrated, taking it out he saw a message from Carmine. Opening up the message all it read was, 'Hurry to Vale General Hospital!' Omar turned to Donna, "how far is Vale general hospital from here?" Donna answered confused, "why do you need to know?" "Because my team mate just texted me to get there now." Yang asked, "Is everything ok, call and ask." Omar nodded while Donna called for Virgo as he called Carmine, after the second ring the call picked up and the first thing he heard was crying, "Carmine what happened?" "Sorry that I'm interrupting your date but did you get my text?" "Yeah but what happened you weren't being very specific." Before Carmine could answer the crying grew loader as other voices could be heard nearby, "just get over here as soon as you can, I'll explain then." Omar hung up the scroll as Yang finished her call, "I told Ruby I would be a bit longer, we're going to the hospital now right?" Donna stood up as Virgo entered the room, "I have a car waiting to take you there now, it'll be a lot faster then you running and possibly causing an accident or two." Omar sighed nodding, "If you're sure about this Yang then ok let's go now." As he was about to leave Donna stopped him, "Omar remember you aren't invincible, be careful ok." Omar shrugged his shoulders, "yeah yeah I know." A large black SUV was waiting for them when they exited the club, Virgo and another man were waiting for them as they entered the truck.
Arriving at the hospital Carmine was waiting for them in the lobby, as they followed him he was quiet but was clenching his fists. Entering the elevator Omar could hear Carmine cracking his knuckles with how tight his fists were, Yang laughed nervously with how tense Carmine was. Reaching the floor Omar could hear the crying even before the elevator doors opened, walking out and turning the corner he saw Delilah holding Levina and she wailed. When he got close he saw the room labeled 'Vulpes' looking inside he saw two elderly people hooked up to more than a dozen different machines and medicine bags. They were wrapped up in bandages leaving almost no skin exposed, the breathing machine rhythmically compressed and decompressed as it help the couple breath. Yang sat next to Levina trying to help Delilah calm her down, Omar grabbed Carmine pulling him to the side, "You. Explain. Now." Carmine looked down leaning against the wall, "the people in the room are Levina's foster parents, and they came to visit her. But…..they were attacked, no one knows who did it but they took their time with them. They were dumped in front of the police station clinging to life like they are now. Delilah and I were about to leave when she got the call from the cops, we rushed over as fast as we could. From what the doctor says there is a treatment they could do but the cost is gargantuan, they could never hope to even make the first payment. Even if Levina worked her whole life it wouldn't make a dent in the amount of debt they would be in." Omar peeked around the hall as Yang and Delilah managed to calm Levina down, "did they tell you how much it would cost?" Carmine shook his head, "no the doctor just looked Levina over and said it wouldn't matter what she did, she would never be able to pay it off." Omar furrowed his brow, "that doesn't seem right, why say there's a treatment but not give a cost." Carmine shrugged, "I don't know, but he said that with out the treatment they wouldn't last through the night." Omar took a step back taking out his scroll, Carmine asked, "who are you calling?" "A second opinion."
Half an hour past as the group waited outside the room when Carmine checked the time, 10:36 pm. A doctor walking down the hall stopped at the group, his name tag read 'Dr. Perfidious', looking at the group then at the room he said, "visiting hours are over go home, if anything happens the hospital will call you if you are the emergency contact number." Levina stood up wiping her face, "is it possible for me to stay the night, please they are my foster parents I want to be close by." The doctor had greasy slick back hair, a slight hunch in his shoulders making him a bit shorter then Carmine, and a crooked smile. Dr. Perfidious smiled at Delilah, "listen kid I'm pretty sure they weren't the best parents, be happy that they will go in their sleep at least." As Carmine was about to snap when Omar stepped in front, "Doctor I heard that there was a treatment plan that could save their lives, do you have any information about that?" The doctor looked Omar up and down with a disgusted look, "listen I already said that you kids would not have enough to cover the first dose, they're comfortable at least so be happy with that." Omar took a step forward, "ok but how much is the treatment you never said." The doctor gave an annoyed sigh, "the total treatment would be around seven million lien, like I said," "that's all, I thought it would be more. Does the hospital take debt or do I have to pay cash?" the doctor looked more annoyed, "very funny kid but I seriously doubt you have that kind of dough, they don't have insurance so I don't even have to administer the treatment." Omar pull out his wallet taking out a card, "you can put them on this insurance right?" Levina grabbed Omar's arms pleading, "Stop don't put yourself in that kind of debt for me." Omar turned to her as he smiled patting her head, "we're teammates, and really seven million isn't gonna put that much of a dent in my bank account." the doctor took the card glancing it over, he did a double take when he read further, "kid where did you get this card?" "From my insurance company, can you use that for them or not?" the doctor smiled crookedly, "yes I can, and I have to apologize beforehand about the amount. I said seven million originally because that is the cost for the first round of treatment, the actual total cost would be around five hundred million because of the effectiveness of the treatment and the extensive care they would need along the way." Omar smiled at the doctor, "still not to bad considering it would save them." The doctor let slip his true thoughts under his breath, "sucker there is no treatment for these stupid Faunus, but since he is so willing I can milk him for every cent he has." Both Delilah and Carmine heard him, Delilah was about to say something when she saw Omar grab the doctor by the front of the coat and slammed him into the wall. Because of how late it was there was no one else in the hall, but that didn't stop the sound from reverberating throughout the whole hallway. Still holding the doctor Omar raised his fist when Carmine stopped him, "stop Omar he's not worth it, you're only making things worse." Letting the doctor go he took a step back picking up his insurance card as the doctor gasped for air. Shakenly standing up he wheezed, "I refuse to treat those filthy creatures any further!" Levina stomped toward Omar, as she was about to slap him a voice stopped her, "then that means that I can take them off your hands right?" A female doctor stood on the other side of the group, she had small horns protruding from her forehead signaling her as a Faunus, she had curly white hair that was bunched up naturally near her shoulders, bigger boobs then Yang, and a sleepy expression. The name tag she wore read, 'Dr. Canadensis' as she had her arms crossed underneath her breast. Walking toward the group she smiled at Omar, "I see that temper and loose hand of yours hasn't changed much." Omar turned toward her then looked at the room, "can you help them?" she gave a warm smile as she walked up to Levina lovingly patting her head, "don't cry anymore ok, I will take good care of them. The doctor over there is terrible at his job, I'll have them better by the morning." Levina sniffed nodding her head, playfully poking Omar she stood in front of Dr. Perfidious giving an almost death glare, "I see that attitude of your hasn't changed much since medical school." Dr. Perfidious spat, "what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be tending to the farm animals you call patients." She turned toward Omar, "would you be a dear and fix the wall, we can't have you going to jail now. And you should really take a rest." She quickly brought a syringe out injecting the doctor in the neck as he quickly fell unconscious. With that taken care of she walked into the room and examined both Evergreen and Oxford, ignoring the clipboard and doing a physical examination she quickly assessed her next course of action.
Exiting the room she called for two orderlies, Levina sat nervously waiting for the doctor's answer. Standing in front of the group she looked at Levina, "I am very sorry, their wounds are very serious." Levina almost fainted but Dr. Canadensis put a hand on her shoulder, "no no don't faint, I only meant that they must have been in a lot of pain when they received those injuries. They are not beyond my ability to heal them, I'm sorry for scaring you like that." Levina hugged the doctor as she teared up again, "thank you." Hugging her back the doctor said, "I am transferring them to the hospital that I run, there they can get better treatment and a more comfy room." Levina nodded leaning back when she asked, "How much will it," Dr. Canadensis cut her off by putting a finger over her lips, "no charge, you're Omar's teammate so this is a favor to him that I'm repaying." Levina got up from her seat and hugged Omar, "thank you, thank you, thank you." Omar laughed, "Figured you'd have cried yourself out by now." Delilah and Carmine stood next to each other as Yang smiled, "for not caring about his team he went pretty far for her." Carmine smiled, "I guess he isn't so bad." The orderlies came wheeling the Vulpes couple out as Delilah looked at the sleeping doctor, "what about him?" Dr. Canadensis turned, "oh he'll be fine but he may not remember most of today which should help you all out." Levina felt relief for the first time that night as she saw Evergreen and Oxford loaded into the ambulance, as she turned to leave her scroll rang. Hanging back from the group she pulled it out and saw an unknown number was calling her, she answered the call, "hello?" "It's been a while Levina, how are your parents doing?" all sense of relief was crushed as her body froze up, she could have sworn that her heart stopped. The pain from her scar skyrocketed and she recognized the voice, "Maverick."
