Chapter 13: Two Birds One Stone
It was early morning a little bit before classes. Pyrrha Nikos could be seen walking the halls.
'C-C'mon Pyrrha you got this.' Pyrrha said with a blush starting to form on her face.
The dance was coming up and with Jaune already having a crush on Weiss, Pyrrha could only think of one other person to go with. She arrived at his door. Okay okay. Just..knock.
Sasuke was in a meditative pose, breathing in and out.
'Someone's outside your door.' Chikara said.
Sasuke opened his eyes. 'Come in Pyrrha.'
Sasuke heard a gasp on the other side and slowly a surprised Pyrrha came in.
'How did you know it was me?' She asked.
'Magic. Is there something you need?' Asked Sasuke.
Pyrrha flushed a bit. 'Y-Yes can I talk to you?'
'Yeah, sit down.' Sasuke gestured to his bed.
She sat down. 'S-So ever since I could remember people would worship my name and practically put me superior, but you don't…why is that?'
'Well that's because you're human too. You have feelings and emotions just like anyone else. You're not a product.' Sasuke spoke with common sense.
plus 25 closeness with Pyrrha
He gets it…he gets it! Pyrrha blushed more. 'I thank you Sasuke. A lot of people don't understand that.'
Sasuke nodded. 'Is that all you wanted to talk about?'
'W-Well no.' Pyrrha took a deep breath. 'Will you go to the dance with me?' Pyrrha looked Sasuke in the eyes with a cute shy smile.
Sasuke thought about it. Pyrrha was of course beautiful. He would admit. She was strong and a good fighter. She was kind yet fierce. Good qualities in a woman.
'You're gay if you say no.' Said Chikara.
'I'm dead if I say yes.' Sasuke mentally replied. He thought about the other girls. Well here goes nothing.
'Yes I will Pyrrha.' Sasuke said with a small grin.
'Oh really?!' Pyrrha squealed as she gave Sasuke a hug. 'T-Thank you. I'll be on my way now.'
Sasuke saw Pyrrha's tomato face as she left. He shook his head with an amused expression. 'I'm in deep shit aren't I?' He said as he got ready for class.
'Yes, yes you are Sasuke.' Chikara said with a chuckle.
-Cutscene-
'So who would like to spar today?' Professor Goodwitch said.
Cardin remembered the embarrassment he received from Sasuke and decided to raise his hand. 'Me professor! And I would like to spar with him!' He pointed at Sasuke.
Gylnda adjusted her glasses. 'Are you sure, Cardin?'
'Of course.' He and his team got up and headed to the area.
Well look who has balls now. An amused Sasuke thought. Sasuke got up and went to the area on the opposite side of Team CRDL.
'You're dead Uchiha haha.' Cardin laughed.
Sasuke just looked at him.
'Fight!' Said Professor Goodwitch
'Chikara go!' Sasuke yelled.
ROOARR! Beacon burst apart and a planetary crater formed.
'Chibaku Tensei!' Each of the members of Team CRDL couldn't move as their bodies were crushed into each other with earthly pieces of vale crushing their bodies.
Sasuke activates his Perfect Susano'o. He let out a cold smirk. 'Now Chikara!'
Chikara charged up a Tailed Beast bomb and shot it at the meteor. Sasuke charged up his Chidori and charged at the meteor 'HAAAA!'
BOOOMM
'Your intrusive thoughts are overkill Sasuke.' Chikara chuckled at what he saw.
'Yes indeed.' Sasuke mentally responded with a smirk.
'Fight!' Professor Goodwitch said.
'Gooo Sasuke!' Ruby cheered for him, knowing this would be light work for Sasuke.
'You got it handsome!' Yang cheered alongside Ruby.
A sleep deprived Blake offered him a smile.
'Teach em what they didn't learn last time!' Weiss cheered.
'Drill em boss!' Jaune gave Sasuke a thumbs up. Sasuke could win this with his eyes closed and one arm. He thought.
'Break their legs!' Nora laughed deviously.
Ren offered him a good luck nod.
'Do your best!' A small shade of pink appeared on a smiling Pyrrha's face.
Cardin grimaced at Sasuke and charged him.
He swung his mace with killing intent at Sasuke. 'DIIIEEE!'
The mace was inches from Sasuke's face before he smirked.
The crowd suddenly went silent as a pen dropped.
Cardin could be seen…kissing his team member's face!
'HA GAaaayyy!' One of the students yelled.
The crowd bursted out laughing at them.
Cardin blushed in anger and embarrassment. 'C-Come!' He yelled to his team before running off.
Sasuke could be seen in the background with an amused grin on his face. Good ole Rinnegan.
'I didn't expect that one Sasuke.' A laughing Chikara said.
A small smile was on Professor Goodwitch's face 'Well that concludes the match. Head back to your seat Sasuke. Will anyone else like to spar?'
A silver haired young man raised his hand. 'Me professor.'
'Mercury right? And who would you like to spar with?' She asked.
'I want to spar her.' He pointed at Pyrrha.
A surprised look appeared on Pyrrha's face before she went to the area.
'Fight!' Professor Goodwitch said.
Throughout the fight Sasuke could tell the guy wasn't trying. He must have a motive, but what? Sasuke thought. He then noticed the guy going for a kick then Pyrrha used her semblance againsts the metal parts to redirect it.
Mercury stopped and grinned for a moment.
Sasuke narrowed his eyes. I see now. He thought. The guy wanted to know Pyrrha's semblance but why?
Pyrrha started to charge him, but before she could get a hit- 'I forfeit.' Mercury said.
'You're not even going to try?' A confused Pyrrha said.
'It's no point, you're the invincible girl.' Mercury said as he walked off.
'Winner Pyrrha. You all have your first mission on Monday so make sure you all get plenty of rest. Class is dismissed.'
-In the halls-
'So how'd ya do that Sasuke?' Ruby asked, walking alongside him.
'I moved very fast.' He responded.
'Well it serves them right. They won't mess with anyone ever again.' Said Weiss.
The group then stopped to watch Blake and Sun.
'So Blake, I hear there's a dance going on this weekend. It sounds pretty lame, but you and I figure it's not as lame.' Started Sun
'What?' Blake said.
'The dance this weekend. You wanna go or what?' He asked.
Sasuke entered Blake's mind. 'I don't have time for this. Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't go with you.' She then walked off.
'Damn that's tough.' Yang patted Sun on the back.
Sasuke watched the interaction and told himself he would talk to Blake later. He had to check on Jaune. He began to leave.
'W-wait Sasuke. Is it okay if I swing by to talk to you later?' A flustered Ruby asked. Screw Yang! Yang said she wouldn't let her live it down if she didn't ask him. She was extremely nervous, but Yang saying she would take him from her boosted her confidence.
'Sure thing Ruby.' Sasuke said, leaving.
'Who knew you would be crushing on Faunus boy.' Weiss teased.
'Wha?! Of course not, we're just friends!' Ruby turned red.
'Yeah yeah keep telling yourself that.' Weiss started to walk away.
-Cutscene-
Sasuke arrived in his room and put his belongings down. He then teleported to the Kamui dimension.
'Up again!' One of Sasuke's clones told Jaune.
Jaune once again tried to run up the tall tree that the clone created. He almost made it past his record, before he was blown off.
Sasuke walked up. 'What's going on?'
The clone replied. 'He's doing the tree exercise to get stronger Chakra control, but he's losing focus.'
'Why are you losing focus Jaune?' Sasuke asked.
Jaune got up and sighed. 'I want to take Weiss to the dance, but she keeps rejecting me.'
Of course it's a girl. Sasuke thought. When Sasuke wanted to achieve power, women were the last thing on his mind. He knew they would be just distractions from his goal. His self control was practically like a monk and he practiced Semen Retention all of his life.
'Jaune don't chase someone who doesn't want you. Chase your purpose. Always remember short term gratification equals long term regret and delayed gratification equals a great future.' Said Sasuke, giving Jaune a gem.
[Jaune will remember that.]
'Y'know what you're right Sasuke.' Jaune then took a deep breath and ran up the tree again. This time he got further up and even passed his record.
Sasuke gave a nod. 'Keep practicing.'
Sasuke then left back to his room.
He heard a knock on his door.
'Come in.' Said Sasuke.
Ruby had a plate of cookies as she walked in.
'Hey ya Sasuke. I brought cookies.' Said Ruby, walking in.
Sasuke grinned. 'Preciate it Ruby. Sit down.'
Even though Sasuke doesn't like sweets, he'll make an exception.
Ruby sat on the bed and Sasuke grabbed a cookie. 'What you had to talk about?' He ate a piece.
C'mon Ruby say it! 'I…just wanted to thank you.'
Sasuke raised an eyebrow. 'For what?'
'For what you have done for me. Saving me, giving me confidence where I didn't have it, and all of it.' Ruby said, getting a little emotional.
Sasuke hates when girls cry. 'Hey it's okay. Like I said, don't mention it.'
'You don't understand. When I first came here, people were against me because I came one year early. Me being already antisocial and awkward, it was hard. Even with some of my close friends now.' Ruby started, slow tears falling from her eyes. (I made her 16 on purpose.)
'But meeting you, it didn't have to be that way. I felt calm and confident. For that, I appreciate you.' Ruby gave Sasuke a sweet smile.
All this was new to Sasuke. He wasn't used to people thanking him so much. Usually they would curse and say how much they hated him.
It was starting to make him feel things he hasn't felt in a long time.
He wiped Ruby's tears. 'Your welcome Ruby, and thank you for your words.' He gave her a full smile.
Ruby turned red as a tomato. 'W-will you go to the dance w-with me?' She asked with a shy smile.
'Two for the count? You're on a role Sasuke.' Chikara said as he whistled.
'Shut up Chikara.' Sasuke said mentally.
Sasuke wondered how he would do this. He then got an idea.
'No Ruby.' Sasuke started.
Ruby felt her insides crush into each other. 'O-oh okay Sasuke.' She then turned and started walking away.
'Let me take you on a date instead.' Sasuke finished.
Ruby stopped in her tracks. d-date? D-DATE?! She felt butterflies and blushed hard. 'O-okay Sasuke.' She then squealed. 'Let me go get ready!' She used her semblance and left.
'Smart thinking Sasuke. I thought you sold it for a minute.' Said Chikara.
'Wouldn't live it down if I did.' He responded. Sasuke wanted to get some air so he left to go outdoors.
Sasuke sat down on a bench and looked at the sunset. He thought about everything. About how things were going well, almost too well.
'Something is bound to happen soon Sasuke.' Said Chikara.
'And when it does we will be ready for it.' Chikara's right, good things don't last, but Sasuke would be damned if he would let anyone take what he got.
Sasuke heard footsteps approaching him.
He watched as Blake sat beside him. 'Hey Sasuke.'
'Blake you look tired. Have you been getting sleep?' Questioned Sasuke.
Blake looked down. 'No I haven't. I'm concerned about the White Fang. I feel like they're up to something and everyone is ignoring it.'
'Hn I agree with you Blake.' Sasuke said.
Blake looked at him with wide eyes. 'Really?'
'Of course. They're enemies out there and they don't sleep, but you must make sure you're 110% ready for them whenever they do attack. Looking at you right now, you are not suitable to fight.' Replied Sasuke honestly.
Blake sighed as she nodded.
'Go get some rest. I know your team wants you to go to the dance, but being at full strength is more important.' Sasuke told her.
'You're right Sasuke.' Blake said as she laid her head on his shoulder. 'Thank you.' She then slowly went to sleep. Sasuke brought a clone forth. He then nodded to it then the clone softly got Blake. It quickly changed its identity then went to drop her off to her room.
I should go back. He thought before leaving.
Sasuke looked at himself in the mirror. He had on a black suit with a white undershirt, a navy blue tie, and navy blue handkerchief. He also groomed his hair down a bit. 'Well how I look?' He asked.
'Looking splendid Sasuke.' Chikara said.

Well damn. Sasuke has to play his cards right or he would be doomed. He decided to play it safe so he used his scroll and messaged Ruby to meet him by the bullhead. He then created a Shadow Clone. 'Don't fuck up.' He said. The clone nodded as he went to take Pyrrha to the dance. Sasuke glanced at himself one more time before using his Lightning Shunshin to go to the bullhead.
The clone arrived in front of Team JNPR's door and knocked.
'Coming!' Nora answered the door. 'Hey Sasuke! You look great! Pyrrha's right here!' Nora walked to the side as Pyrrha walked forward.
She blushed as she looked at Sasuke. 'You look very handsome Sasuke.' She said with a big smile.
I'm about to have some fun! Clone Sasuke thought. 'And you look beautiful Pyrrha, shall we?' He held his arm out.
'Yes, we shall.' Pyrrha smiled sweetly and interlocked with his arm. They then left to the dance.
-Cutscene-
How does Weiss fight in these? She thought, looking at the annoyances on her feet.
She then heard footsteps walking up.
'Sas-' She then looked at him. 'uke' she turned red. 'Y-You look handsome.'
Sasuke grinned. 'You look cute Ruby, let's go.' He held her hand as they walked in the bullhead.
-To the clone-
The clone and Pyrrha made it to the dance.
Yang started 'Wait Sasuke? I t-' His Sharingan flashed.
'Welcome to the dance you two. Have fun!' An ecstatic Yang now said.
'I'll be back, Sasuke. I have to use the restroom real quick.'
The clone nodded then heard something.
(Cue Satisfaction by Benny Benassi instrumental)
'This my shit!' The clone then got two glow sticks and a random whistle he found.
Pyrrha finished then walked out. 'Sasuke!' She called out over the loud music. She then saw Ren and Nora who were laughing hard. 'Hey guys have you seen Sasuke?'
'See for yourself.' A laughing Nora pointed towards the dance floor.
Pyrrha sees a shirtless Sasuke dancing with glow sticks and blowing a whistle to the rhythm of the music. She also heard the crowd chanting 'Go Sasuke go Sasuke!'
(You're a legend if you get this reference.)
Pyrrha couldn't stop laughing. 'I-I didn't think you could dance like this Sasuke.'
'Yeah me neither! Come let's have fun!' Clone said and then Pyrrha joined him.
-To the original-
Sasuke got a bad feeling about his clone but decided to ignore it. He and Ruby decided to go to the Vale arcade.
'C'mon Sasuke over here!' Ruby pulled him to the air hockey table.
Sasuke didn't know what this was or how to play. He quickly glanced at the people beside them playing the same game and flashed his Sharingan. I understand now. He thought with a smirk.
He went on one side and Ruby went on the other.
'Ready to lose Sasuke.' A smirking Ruby said getting ready.
'Speak for yourself Ruby.' Sasuke then hit the puck fast and it went straight through before Ruby could react. He smirked 'Because I don't lose.'
-After a while-
'Fine you win!' Ruby said with a huff. She looked at her score of 60 to Sasuke's 200. 'That's soo unfair.'
'Life's unfair Ruby' Sasuke smirked with a shrug. 'What next?'
Ruby then glanced to the right. 'Ooo I know! Let's play the simulation game!' She then dragged Sasuke to it 'It simulates real battles with Grimm.' They heard a voice.
You are entering the simulation, have fun!
-To the clone-
The clone was having a blast with Pyrrha.
'Want something to drink?' He asked her.
'No thank you Sasuke. Can we talk privately?' Pyrrha asked.
'Sure thing.' He took Pyrrha's hand and they went to the balcony.
'Did you n' Pyrrha interrupted, kissing him on the cheek.
'Thank you for tonight Sasuke.' Pyrrha gave him a wide smile.
Yeah fuck this. Sorry Original. The clone wrapped his arms around Pyrrha's waist and kissed her passionately.
Pyrrha leaned into the kiss and moaned quietly.
-To the original-
'Behind you!' Sasuke decapitated the final Grimm before it got to Ruby.
Simulation complete. You win!
'That was a lot of Grimm.' Said Ruby with a slight pant.
Sasuke stood unfazed. 'Yeah it was. Are you hungry?' He asked.
'No I ate before I got here, thank you though.' Said Ruby. 'I had a lot of fun with you today Sasuke.' A smiling Ruby said.
'Likewise Ruby.' Sasuke said with a grin.
Ruby built up some courage and gave Sasuke a quick kiss on the cheek. ' L-Let's hurry back.'
Sasuke smiled. 'Yes indeed.'
-To the clone-
'Thank you for walking me back Sasuke.' A blushing Pyrrha told him, giving him a final smile.
'Have a goodnight.' Clone Sasuke then went to the original's room to wait for him.
Sasuke was seen walking down the halls. Ruby told him she wanted to check up on Yang, so she left him with a goodnight.
Sasuke walked inside his room. 'So how'd it go?' He asked his clone.
The clone chuckled. 'See for yourself.' He then poofed.
Chikara couldn't stop laughing and Sasuke stood baffled.
