"You alright?"

With wide eyes Asa just stared at Weiss in front of her. In the background Silco slowly stood up from his seat as she was unable to bring a word out. Here she stood, looking exactly like the sister she despised, Father's favorite. Asa clenched her fist tightly, she wanted to hit her so badly.

A pair of arms on her shoulder snapped her out of her thoughts as she eyed and saw Silco standing beside her "apologies for my daughter she is rather shy I'm afraid" he told Weiss, keeping his face straight and speaking as polite as possible. Asa looked back at the sister and then realized that this was not her Weiss, the scar on her eye speaking volumes.

"Understandable. Again my apologies I'm not used to such busy crowds. I did not mean to run into your daughter" Weiss said.

"That is alright she didn't watch where she was walking, weren't you?" a side eyed glance from him made Asa only more irritated but she played along "yes I wasn't looking where I was going" she admitted through gritted teeth.

At that moment a young man, whom Silco recognized walked through the crowd to Weiss. A little girl holding onto his neck as he held her in one arm and a phone in his other to his ears. Asa saw a gleam in Silco's eyes like he had won the lottery.

"Weiss you're never going to believe what Yang just told me! Apparently Megumi has a girlfriend!" the young man told her.

Asa's heart sank, her pride fell in her shoes. Her Megumi….a girlfriend…..could it be another Megumi. No…this was his world….which meant….could it be?

"You gotta be joking. Megumi a girlfriend?" Weiss said laughing in disbelief.

Silco jovially laughed as he said "ah this must be your husband and daughter I take it" Asa saw him laughing but she knew well enough that this was him fishing for information. The young blonde man stopped his call and blushed as he said "oh no we're not married. I mean we are together just not married."

"Forgive my misunderstanding young man" Silco said extending his hand.

"Oh just call me Jaune" he replied as he shook Silco's hand. Asa from the side hadn't said a word but was looking Silco up and down and he seemed to be positively glowing.

"Can't you see it you oaf!," the voice of Yoru yelled in her head "that's the guy that Weiss always went on about and that's their child. This Weiss must be the one from his world."

Asa out of reflex slapped the side of her own head to get the voice of Yoru out of it. "Everything alright?" Jaune asked her politely and before she could respond Silco stepped in and said "oh she is no worries she's just a bit of an odd one."

"I get it. Daughters you know. Mine is also a goof" Jaune said as he bopped Kara on the nose "hey!" the little girl squealed as Jaune kissed her forehead. "Yeah she gets the goof part from her dad" Weiss said with a smile as she looked at him.

Asa observed the pair as they looked at each other. She felt a pang of jealousy. If this was love she was seeing she resented the fact that the boy she loved was taken in by someone else. Someone completely and utterly unworthy.

"Jaune we need to get going" Weiss said.

"Yeah you're right. It was wonderful meeting you all, again apologies for the accident," Jaune said as he shook Silco's hand again, this time giving the man a better look "you look familiar have we met before?"

"No but I get that a lot! Enjoy your day" Silco said with a smile as Weiss, Jaune and Kara took their leave. As soon as they where out of earshot he turned to Asa and whispered to her "follow them and don't let them out of your sight. Whatever you do make sure no harm comes to the child."

Asa wanted to protest but before she could Yoru took over and spoke with a sarcastic "will do dad!" before she turned heel and proceeded to follow the pair.

Silco shrugged of the rude response and turned to the remaining two still seated at the table "pack up it's time we get into action."

"Do you mind I'm still eating" Fairy Godmother responded with an annoyed huff.

"NOW!" Silco almost screamed in complete annoyance.


Blake rubbed in her eyes as she looked as Megumi placed his hand around the horned girl, who snuggled up close to him. She wasn't sure if what she was seeing was accurate.

"I'm sorry. She is your girlfriend?" Blake asked rather cautiously.

Before Megumi could say something Power stepped forward "That I am! He's mine so back off!" she said holding onto Megumi rather possessively.

"Okay…." Blake said.

"Sorry about that. I was just here to pick her up she's joining me, Qrow and sensei Gojo on a mission."

"You're going on a mission?" Blake asked.

Megumi nodded "correct. We're actually going to Atlas to set some things straight with General Ironwood and hope if we can still find something we could use against the Collective."

"And you're sure it's okay to let Gojo leave here. He's basically the only thing that keeps the Collective at bay" Blake wondered.

"It will only be a quick mission. Besides the Collective wouldn't dare to come to this world anyway."

"If you say so. If you don't mind I feel tired I'm going to go to my room" Blake said as she left without saying another word. Looking back only to see Megumi place a soft kiss on Power's cheek. It was an odd couple to see but it made Blake somewhat smile.

It was always the ones you didn't expect.


Thanos had spend more time in the Upside Down then he would've liked because in its endless silence it made the thoughts that plagued it mind all the more louder. The thoughts and feelings of guilt as he looked and saw his beloved daughter still entrapped in the vines tethering her to life. Her eyes closed, devoid of life or seemingly even consciousness.

But he held out hope regardless. Hope that she would be okay.

Vecna stood beside him quietly. His face betraying that he felt anger, anger at being forced to keep watch over Weiss. He never dared to question his leaders orders but he resented being forced to babysit this women that he absolutely could not stand.

"My lord with all due respect, standing here will not change her situation" Vecna spoke.

Thanos remained silent. Eerily so.

"My Lord Titan there is nothing we can do for her at this moment. I suggest you let me join the others in retrieving…"

In a second Vecna was flung through the air and found himself inside the Mad Titan's giant hand. Even in that the Mad Titan did not take his eyes of his daughter as he spoke.

"I'm getting tired of your consistent insubordinate attitude Henry. I gave you orders and you will adhere to them! Do I make myself clear."

Gasping for air Vecna could only mumble "Yes…my lord" and with that the grip loosened and Vecna fell to the ground, clutching his throat.

"You will keep watch over her until further notice" Thanos said stoically as he proceeded to turn around and leave.

"This is all that boy's fault! If we had eliminated him when we got the chance then we wouldn't be in this mess. If we take down Jaune Arc then…" Vecna didn't finish his sentence as a glyph suddenly appeared beneath his feet and he was blasted head first into a nearby tree with such force that the tree snapped.

Thanos turned his head around and looked at the scene, noticing his still unconscious daughter twitching in the vines holding her up, around her small white flames where blazing softly.

"Daughter? Is that you?" he wondered. There was no clear verbal or physical response from Weiss but in this small moment a bit of hope sparked forward in him. His resolve stronger than ever.

"I assure you Weiss we will get Kara back. No matter what it takes."


A/N: I know the chapters are a bit all over the place but there is just so much that needs to happen that I'm a bit overwhelmed by it all. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions feel free to let me know I'm always open for more ideas, I'm writing these stories for both me and all of you wonderful people after all.
