When he woke up he felt the other side of the bed was pressed down and he quickly turned around. He saw Yang asleep next to him. "What the fuck?" He said loud enough to wake her up. "Morning tough guy." She said yawning. "The fuck are you doing in my bed?" Asura asked. "Well I came in here while you were asleep because I wanted to ask about the club, but the bed looks so comfortable." She said doing a snow angel in the bed sheets. "Creepy." Asura said rubbing his eyes. "Well also Nora wants pancakes for breakfast." Yang said jumping out of bed and running down the hall. "These fucking girls…" Asura said getting lazily out of bed. Asura took a shower and put on his casual clothes which were baggy black pants and black shirt. As he made his way down the hall he was using a towel to dry his hair and couldn't see much in front of him and ended up walking into Athena. "Sis? What are you doing here?" "Well since you ditched us on Hearth we looked everywhere for you but couldn't find you so we came back and we got a "pleasant" surprise." Athena said pushing past Asura and going to her room. "Well I know exactly who is out there." Asura said placing his hand on the dining hall door and pushing it open. As Asura stepped through with the towel on his shoulder he heard exactly what he didn't want. "ASURA!" He visibly flinched when he heard Priscilla yell. "Hey Priscilla…" Asura said getting ready to get lectured as he saw he stomping towards him. "Don't you hey Priscilla me! Do you have any idea what you've done?! You just up and left us at the festival! Some man you are! We had everything planned! You just make me so… so." Priscilla raised her hand as if to slap Asura as everyone watched but instead something different happened. "So worried! Just tell me when you're going somewhere so I don't have to think that you're in trouble!" Priscilla said putting her arms over his shoulders and giving a hug and buried her head in his shoulder.
"Well that's not what I was expecting." He said looking at Ruby and the others who gave him looks of confusion. "Explain to me what happened and why there are 9 teens here now." Priscilla asked turning her head making her snow colored hair twist. "Nine? There's only eight of us here." Weiss said. "There's nine of you." Priscilla said moving her hand to the right making Karma get dragged into the room by the collar of her robe. Priscilla moved her until she sat down at a chair across from everybody else. Karma was visibly shaking in her chair before getting up and running behind Asura and stuck her head out. "She's blind?" Blake asked. Karma didn't reply and hid behind Asura as cover. "Karma you can go back to your room now it's alright." Asura said patting her head before she turned tail and ran as fast as she could out the door. "Mind explaining it now Asura?" Priscilla asked. "First things first who are you?" Weiss asked. "I'm Priscilla, I live here, I am also… Asura's girlfriend." She said making Yang choke on her food. "Well sit down and I'll start." They all sat down at the table Priscilla, Asura, Conrad, RWBY, and JNPR. Asura started from the beginning which was when he spent the weekend in Vale, to the run in at the casino with Scarlett, then the Irish pub where he heard of a weapon smith, to when he went to Alterion and met Karma and told them of what happened, he then told them he got a message from Qrow and what was said in the meeting and how he had to take the group of teens here to keep them safe. "So we have this group of underage teens staying here until, basically an army lays waste to beacon?" Conrad asked. "Yeah." Asura said rubbing the back of his neck. "Wait so you guys all have special powers?" Nora asked through the mouthful of pancakes. "Well, yes." Priscilla said. "Can we see?" Nora asked. As soon as she asked Conrad pointed out his finger and electricity started to crack around it as he poked her in the shoulder making a small amount of electricity course down her arm. "Ooh tingly." Nora said laughing. "Well what powers do the others have?" Blake asked. "Well Asura is Ruin. Mine is ice. Conrad's, as shown, is electricity. Nadalia has mind control. Aleksander's is wind. Selena's is poison, and Athena's is Fire." Priscilla said. "What's Ruin Asura?" Pyrrha asked. "Ask Yang I used the weakest move I had against her yesterday." "Yeah he slammed his hands against my stomach. Painful shit." Yang said biting some pancake off her fork. "I kinda want to go in a 1v1 fight against you Asura. The god of destruction must prove a valiant opponent." Pyrrha said. "Well the only reason Yang won yesterday was because I slipped on the wet grass." Asura said laughing.
"Well you guys have fun I'm going to go check on Karma." Asura said getting up. He walked to Karma's room and the real reason he went was because he wanted to see what see had wanted. He pushed open the door and was shocked. The room wasn't a room at all. The roof was a magical projection of a clear blue sky and the floor was grass. The room was rather large as it continued for quite some time. The room was like a tranquil garden, there were ponds and different types of trees. There were a multitude of fish but no land creatures. He looked around and soon found Karma on her knees tending to a patch of bioluminescent bulbs. As he made his way towards her two bats flew over and landed on his shoulders and started crawling around. "So you have some new friends." Asura said walking towards her holding one of the bats in his hand. "Mind telling me how they can see in this light." He asked. "Well they're normal bats but to them its dark but to us its daytime due to the projection. That one's named Harley and the other's named Nibbles." She said pointing to the one nibbling on Asura's finger. "Fitting. Well I just stopped by to see how you were doing. But I got to ask a question. Why don't you go and socialize with the others? Now don't get me wrong I'm antisocial as well but I was just saying it might be good for you." Asura said sitting down on the grass next to her. "Well people are all flawed creatures. You, me, them… no one is perfect. They judge you. They betray you. They hurt you. They use you. People always find ways to benefit themselves at the cost of you. So even though they are nice right now and that thought probably hasn't crossed their mind. Sooner or later, I'm not saying that they will, they might do something along the lines of that. So if I were to go and become their friend, maybe even close friend, they'll probably later hurt you. Thus I'd rather enjoy the solitude of being alone until I shrivel up and die, however long that takes. I think about it sometimes but still… plants, Nibbles, Harley, and the forge are all I'll ever need. Until they corner me, I don't want to interact with them." Karma said while tending to the bulbs. "Well if that is what you want… I'm not the person to change that, and I won't force you too. Just take care okay?" Asura said giving a weak smile and putting his hand on her shoulder. Asura got up and walked away, the grass bending to feel him as he stepped. As he walked he saw Ruby crouched behind a crumbled stone wall and whispered the words "Gevul. Iliis nol koraavnu gein." Which hid Ruby's aura making her completely invisible to Karma. Ruby noticed that Asura had seen her and thought he cover was blown but was reassured Asura knew what she was doing when he gave her a thumbs up. Ruby slowly weaved in and out of cover behind trees and hedges before getting right up behind Karma and grabbing her making sure that she wouldn't get away.
