The war was over now, after almost two years the war was over, Therist faced his punishment for his crimes, helping rebuild all the kingdoms to their former this, he was to spend one hundred years in jail, which didn't really bother him as he could live for a very long time, and Grim would visit him regularly
" Your really fine with just being in prison like this, I could have gotten your sentenced lowered you know? Therist shrugged at this and shook his head.
" it doesn't matter Grim I deserved a punishment like this, to be honest I should have been put to death. Grim frowned at this and shook his head as he disagreed.
" hey now don't be like that, now that all that hat reds out of your system you can actually enjoy living again. Therist nodded and sighed as he turned away from Grim before speaking.
" your right I rather do feel better now, but do I deserve to after all the bad things I've done. Grim chuckled at this, and used his powers to shadow travel into Therist's cell so he could hug him.
" don't be a downer, your alive and you accepted the second chance I gave you, and for that I can accept you as family, so enjoy being alive, enjoy your life, and enjoy your relationships with family and friends. Therist chuckled at this, and ruffled Grim's hair before frowning.
" while that's a nice thing to say Grim I don't think anyone wants to be friends with me. Grim laughed at this and shook his head.
" jeez your as bad as dad or Qrow when their drunk. Therist winced at this, and Grim smiled softly before shaking his head.
" don't worry dads okay, sure he'll have a nasty scar but he made it to a hospital in time, I don't have any hard feelings over it. Therist smiled at this and sat down in shock.
" I can't believe I'm alive I fully expected some one to try and kill me by now. Grim chuckled at this and twirled his scythe around in his hands.
" oh trust me plenty of people want you dead, but a pardon from yours truly and a lot of them calmed down and some wanted to see you. As Grim said this, Salem entered Therist's cell, and Grim disappeared leaving the two alone.
" that little shit had this set up didn't he? Salem nodded, and giggled as she sat across from Therist.
" he certainly is smart just like you were Theri. Therist's eyes widened at his old nickname, and he for the first time in a thousand years, blushed.
" I um-you said my pet name? Why, don't you hate me? Salem shook her head at this and smiled as she laid a hand on Therist's cheek.
" of course not, I hated the monster you became, but now your that sweet little Theri I knew and loved again. Salem then kissed Therist, and the two shared a true tender moment. Meanwhile, Grim had shadow traveled over to the hospital to check on his father, and smirked at what he saw as he entered the room. Summer, was in the bed with Nocturne and was wrapped around him like he was a teddy bear. Grim knocked on the wall, and the resulting action caused the two to groan and wake up to stare at Grim.
" good morning love birds I hope I'm not interrupting anything am I? Summer sat up at this, and blushed as she hid her face in her cloak, while nocturne laughed at what Grim said.
" you little brat, teasing me because I'm with my girlfriend while I'm injured in the hospital for shame. Grim shrugged at this and grinned at his dad and summer.
" hey it's not my fault you two slept like that, so how you feeling pops? Nocturne smiled, and lifted up his shirt to show the scar going across his chest.
" well the eggheads fixed me up but, the scar is still gonna be there. Grim nodded and whistled at the scar.
" yeah that's a mean looking scar, on a good note lady's love scars don't they? Nocturne chuckled at this, at least until summer wrapped herself around nocturne.
" except no other woman is getting him but me! Grim sweat dropped at this, and chuckled as he saw his dad's face.
"Well now that I know things are okay here, I'll be leaving, the celebration starts in a few hours after all. Grim then left the hospital and a few hours later, the celebration for winning the war had started. People from all of the kingdoms came to vale, and enjoyed the unity, eating, dancing, and sharing story's. As the festivities went on, Grim had found Ruby and ended up dancing with her.
" so how is everyone doing Rosey? Ruby smiled as she held onto Grim and slow danced with him.
" well dad and Raven are dancing over there so that's good, uncle Qrow and winter are having a drinking contest in the corner so that could only go wrong, Weiss is dancing with Neptune, Blake is dancing with sun,and yangs dancing with Atrail. Grim rolled his eyes at this can chuckled.
" of course that's happening Atrail never waits to make a move when there's a party. Speaking of Atrail, he and yang were talking about an important subject as they danced.
" so I think with all these bets I've won, I can buy all of us a much needed vacation. Yang arched an eyebrow at this and smiled.
" how much money did you win from your bets. Atrail smirked at yangs question and tilted his head.
" now yang why would I tell, I want it to be a surprise when I take us all out on my yacht. Yang smiled widely at this and kissed Atrail.
" you just love to spoil me don't you. Atrail nodded at this and smiled as spun yang around.
" only the best for the best girl in vale. Next to them, Blake and sun were dancing.
" you know I never expected this to happen again after the war started. Blakes eyes widened at that and she tilted her head.
" why would you think that! Sun chuckled as he kissed Blakes forehead and spun her around with his tail.
" well Therist certainly wasn't playing any games for the past two years and quite a big number of people had already died, so I figured one of us was going to go down fighting, though I'm happy to see we're both alive. Blake smiled at this and kissed sun on the cheek as he said this.
" your such a dork thinking things like that. Sun chuckled and shook his head as he and Blake continued to dance. Next to them was Weiss and Neptune who were slow dancing as well.
" I'm glad I can finally be cool at this dancing thing especially with you snowflake. Weiss blushed at this and smacked him upside the head.
" don't tease me Neptune can't we just enjoy this dance without it being about how cool you are. Neptune chuckled at this and rubbed the side of his head.
" of course it can I was just joking Weiss, yang was right you do have a bad sense of humor. In the corner of the room, Pyrrha and Jaune were kissing much to Nora's amusement.
" yay they're kissing let's join in. Ren however took the initiative and kissed Nora first, who quickly kissed him back, before sighing dreamily and saying one word.
" boop. While Pyrrha and Jaune were kissing Amber admired the two from Pyrrhas mind.
" she might not give me any control in this, but I'm fine with front row seats, such a shame I don't have any popcorn, oh well at least I can play mine sweeper in here. Outside of Pyrrhas head, Jaune and Pyrrha pulled back for air and smiled at each other lovingly before kissing again. Grim chuckled at the groups at the dance, knowing that everyone was having a good time for the first time in almost two years.
" I'm glad we're having a good time without any words for once Ruby, are you ready for tonight though. Ruby tilted her head at this, and looked at grim with curiosity.
" why what's going on after the party. Grim smiled wickedly as he nodded over to Atrail, who gave him a thumbs up in return.
" oh nothing much just a little bet that team REAPER made I'm sure you'll enjoy it. As Grim had predicted, something special was going on, and that was the fact that Ozpin and Glynda we're getting married, with Ironwood as the best man, Penny the flower girl, and Ruby was the ring bearer. As the wedding proceeded, Grim and his team, were standing by the door, collecting their earnings from the bets they made.
" it was such a great idea, to work together on this bet don't you think team, now we all get money. Grims team nodded in agreement, and Grim smiled as the wedding went on and clapped when Ozpin and Glynda kissed. Later that evening when everything was said and done Grim and all of his fellow students were now getting on a cruise ship bought with team reapers money.
" Atrail I thought we agreed on a yacht. Atrail shrugged at Grim, and smirked.
" fuck a yacht I've got more money then I need, I'd burn it if I had nothing to spend it on. Grim laughed at this and shook his head.
" your a cheeky dick waffle. Atrail chuckled at this and nodded.
" and that's why everyone loves me. Grim rolled his eyes at this and shook his head.
" whatever just get on the boat and try not to rock it. Atrail chuckled at this and winked at Grim, as Yang and team REAPER boarded with him. The other teams from the kingdoms soon followed suit. The other members, of Team RWBY came on last, stopping to talk to Grim .
" Grim what are you doing down here, the party is on board the ship. Grim smiled at Ruby and chuckled as he waved her on board.
" I still wish to greet everyone as they come on not to mention I have to wait for Ozpin, speaking of waiting, Blake why is Adam not coming with. Blake shrugged and smiled.
" Adams thick headed, he wants to remain alert and ready to spring to our defense. Grim nodded at this before turning to Weiss.
" and what about your father Weiss. Weiss scowled and crossed her arms.
" the schnee family, no longer has a good reputation thanks to father, I'm going to enjoy my time with you all and create my own reputation. Grim nodded at this, and waved to them, as they left, as Ozpin and Glynda were getting on last.
" I hope you enjoy the free time we have oz. Ozpin nodded and chuckled at Grim in response.
" and I hope you enjoy it as well Grim you deserve it. Grim nodded at this, and waved as Glynda and Ozpin boarded the ship. When this was done, Grim pulled back the stairs and waved towards the civilians some of his friends like Roman and neo, who were still in the crowd.
" bye Grim hope you have a good time, neo says bye to. Neo nodded at Romans words and winked at, who chuckled and rolled his eyes as the ship began to move. As the ship set sail, Grim went to the end of the boat, to watch vale fade away into the shadows, however something caught his eye. This turned out to be cinder, who was watching Grim through the shadows and holding a vial of white liquid. Grims eyes narrowed at this, but before he could investigate, cinder disappeared and Ruby hugged him from behind, making him put on a fake smile.
" Ruby? What's up? Ruby frowned as she stared into his eyes.
" why are you by yourself, you should be by your friends having fun. Grim chuckled at this, and shook his head as he caressed Rubys cheek.
" I'm just relaxing and I'm so happy this is all over. Ruby smiled at this and kissed Grim on the cheek before beginning to walk away.
" alright take all the time you need, I can wait for you sweet heart. Grim smiled at this, and blew a kiss at Ruby before turning to the darkened forest again.
" what are you planning fall. Speaking of the villainess, she had traveled to therists cell, with her glove equipped, ready to accomplish something. As she traveled down the prison, lights turned off, prisoners and guards died, and rooms were torn assunder until cinder reached therists room.
" hello master. Therist only had a minute to react, but he was not fast enough, as glass spikes crucified him to the wall.
" gah cinder wait- stop you don't have to do this the war is over-ack. Therists speech was then caught off, as black tendrils latched around his throat, and his powers were sucked out of his body.
" shut your worthless traitor mouth, your lucky I have what I need to make a child from Grim or I would have killed you slowly, but since I have both your power now, and my future child I will make it quick. Cinder then formed a glass sword and pointed it at therists heart, ready to impale him, except for the fact that a blade of light came out of no where and destroyed it. Cinder growled and backed up in shock from this, before ying -yang came into view.
" STAY AWAY FROM MY BROTHER YOU BITCH. Ying-yang then sent cinder flying out of the prison with a ball of light, sending her far away and dealing tremendous damage. With cinder gone, ying-yang turned to Therist and freed him from his bonds.
" don't worry big bro I got you. Therist sniffed at this, and tried not to cry in both guilt and pain.
" you called me big bro again, -d-does that mean you forgive me. Ying -yang nodded, before smiling at Therist.
" I was always forgiving you bro, now then you need to go into hiding cinders to strong for you now, she's to strong for almost anyone In a one on one but, Ruby, the other maidens, and perhaps Grim, her power combined with yours is vast to vast and she will only keep trying to kill you. Therist frowned at this and winced as his crucifixion wounds healed.
" so I'll hide and spy on her until she makes her move. Ying yang nodded and Smiled at his brother.
" just like old times eh always plotting together to take down a bully, only this time the world is at stake. Therist nodded and growled as he picked up his sword from the wreckage of the room.
" she'll pay for this, and she won't get away with it. Ying yang Nodded in agreement and faded away.
" good luck sighed at his brothers disappearance and shook his head before heading out of the room.
" whatever comes, we shall be ready for the future and we shall improve vastly.
