Forsworn 31

When Harry and Velvet finally returned to the Academy, the glow was almost visible to the naked eye. Furthermore, Velvet seemed to be positively floating as she pressed herself against her man. Harry on the other hand was wearing his genuine shit-eating grin and appeared extremely tired.

"Come on, Harry, details please. You're killing me! The aura is blinding!" Fox called as he found Velvet's scattered thoughts.

"This is coming from the blind man? Fine…totally worth it." Harry replied. Coco shook her head "Please tell me…"

Velvet looked at her best friend "Harry and I will…worry about the ramifications of our actions in due time. Right now we've got more pressing concerns."

The Beacon Brigade who were grabbing food sighed "On a rating of Apocalypse to Exceptionally Stupid what're these concerns?" Sage asked, he liked CFVY but HAND…they were always the wild cards.

"This is below Exceptionally Stupid but could become classified as 'HAND needs to be Questioned'. I need to go to Patch…find my cousin and sister and find my Team."

Yatsuhashi sighed "Harry…your little sister is your exact miniature…where would she go if she's not here?"

"Mistral or Atlas…potentially Menagerie. I needed to head to Menagerie at any rate." Velvet nodded "With communications down internationally, I need to go home…at least to…touch base."

Harry looked at the Beacon Brigade, he surprised all of them by going into a Seiza position "I thank all of you, once again, for stepping up and bailing out Shade and Myself from the mess that I created. Yes, I know what I trying to do…infiltrate the Crown and bring it crashing down around them. However, I placed this School under additional threats that it cannot require at this point in time. I am heading to Menagerie, then to Mystral and then to Atlas; if you want to join me, please do. If you wish to remain here, please do."

Nolan chuckled "Harry, you've been upfront with us about what's really happening. Team Sun is going with you…maybe not all the way you're going but…We'll see you in Atlas."

"Team ABRN will be going to Mistral and Haven before coming back here."

"CFVY is with you all the way," Coco stated, Harry could only grin at them "Problem…we're going to need a way to get there." Yatsuhashi stated.

"Solution…make a skiff, stock it up and I'll get us there." Harry countered.

"That's a horrid plan!"

"It's a simple plan, it'd work as well."

Velvet shook her head "No. No more barbecuing yourself no matter how effective it is. What we need is a customised vehicle to get us to Menagerie."

Harry sighed, Velvet was right. "Right…let's get ourselves a skiff and bolt things to it."

Nolan raised an eyebrow "Harry…are you…normally this bad at making a plan or is this a one-off?"

"No…this is actually, a, pretty good plan from my man. They're normally worse or ridiculous; I still remember watching a King Taijutu eating you and you ate it…too see who was more venomous. I don't care that you demolished your hometown for money, I want your future kids to have a goddamn dad."

Harry paused "You heard my darling lady, Nolan. We have a vehicle to make and ground to cover."

(Neville et al.)

"Have you heard anything from Harry?" Ruby asked, she was tired and was feeling achy, Qrow had been training them relentlessly since they'd arrived in Mystral.

"International Communications are down, Ruby…so…not yet. I could try other ways to message him but that'd track unwanted attention. He's probably reunited with CFVY and is about to charge up here with all speed." Neville replied calmly, he pulled Ruby into a hug.

"I would say don't worry, but that's a bad idea. All I will say is…have faith, Harry will turn up when he turns up the moment he's needed."

"And probably wrecking everything around him." Yang finished.

"Yang! Surely, Harry…no wait…he wouldn't…he probably would." Weiss stated.

Neville looked at her "Clearly you've forgotten what he did in Vale…specifically Vale Police Station."

Yang let out a snort "That was incredible…I mean, my cousin always said he had mad skills but seeing that."

Dean chuckled as he caught the tail end of the conversation "Have we told you that's him…not even trying. When he puts his nose to the grindstone that's when you truly see pandemonium. Look…all the Hunters of renown aren't in Mystral right now. We're going to need to improve our training and pray Harry doesn't get here before we really need him."
