The Sun and the Moon
Chapter 9: Family Part 1.
Downtown Vale was bursting with activity as the town began preparations for the upcoming Vytal Festival a giant event in celebrations of another year of continued peace between the four kingdoms. As decorations were being put up the members of team RWBY and SNRS were walking through the streets in awe.
"The Vytal Festival! Oh, this is absolutely wonderful!" Weiss said stopping and raising her arms in amazement.
"I don't think I've ever seen you smile this much, Weiss." Ruby said to the Heiress frowning a little. "It's kind of creeping me out."
"How could you not smile? A festival dedicated to the cultures of the world! There will be dances! Parades! A tournament! Oh, the amount of planning and organization that goes into this event is simply breathtaking!" Weiss continues turning to her partner.
"The fact you find the planning and organization of this breathtaking, makes me feel like it's just a boring old festival." Naruto said dryly as the group continues to walk.
"Yeah, you really know how to take a good thing and make it sound boring." Yang said agreeing with her twin as she crosses her arms.
"Quiet, the both of you!" Weiss said to the twins as she walks away with a hmph.
"Remind me again why we're spending our Friday afternoon visiting the stupid docks?" Yang asked they headed toward the docks.
"Ugh, they smell like fish!" Ruby cried out as she covers her nose from the smell of fresh fish.
"Yang does have a point Weiss." Sakura said looking to the heiress. " I mean, there is no real reason for all of us to be here."
"Well for your information, I've heard that students visiting from Vacuo will be arriving by ship today. And, as a representative of Beacon, I feel as though it is my solemn duty to welcome them to this fine kingdom!" Weiss said with a smug tone in her voice.
"She wants to spy on them so she'll have the upper hand in the tournament." Blake says as the girl starts walking away then turned back looking appalled at Blake.
"You can't prove that!" Weiss scoffed at the Faunus girl while Naruto just laughed. "And what is so funny Naruto?"
"Well Princess, you are not proving Blake wrong!" Naruto chuckled as Weiss looked away blushing furiously.
The rest of the group followed Naruto in his fit of laughter until Ruby looked over to a nearby store.
"Whoa!" Ruby said as she and the others came up to the store which had a broken window with member of the Vale Police Department combing the area for clues. "What happened here?"
"Robbery. Second Dust shop to be hit this week. This place is turning into a jungle." A Detective answered as he walks over to his partner.
"That's terrible." Yang said sadly with Sakura and Robin nodding in agreement.
"Do you have any leads?" Sasuke asked looking intrigued.
"Your Captain Fugaku's kid, Sasuke right?" The other detective asked which Sasuke nodded. "Well not really. They left all the money, but took all the dust."
"Huh." Ruby and Naruto said in surprised remembering Torchwick doing the same thing months prior.
"That doesn't make sense." Robin observing the area around her looking at the evidence.
"Yeah, just doesn't make a lick of sense. Who needs that much Dust?" The first detective said scratching the back of his head in confusion.
"I don't know, an army?" The second detective said unsure how to respond.
"You thinking the White Fang?"
"Yeah, I'm thinking we don't get paid enough." The second detective said taking off his sunglasses while Weiss gained a look of annoyance.
"Hmph! The White Fang." Weiss said crossing her arms and pointing her nose in the air with her eyes closed. "What an awful bunch of degenerates!"
"What's your problem?" Blake said narrowing her eye's at Weiss's statement.
"My problem? I simply don't care for the criminally insane." Weiss said turning to Blake.
'Uh oh.' Naruto thought as he moved to calm a load gun ready to fire. "Girls it might not be the…"
"The White Fang is hardly a bunch of psychopaths." Blake interrupted crossing her arms in a serious tone. "They're a collection of misguided Faunus."
"Misguided? They want to wipe Humanity off the face of the planet!" Weiss said getting even more annoyed than before.
"So then they're very misguided. Either way, it doesn't explain why they would rob a Dust shop in the middle of downtown Vale!" Blake continued getting more angry by the second.
"Hmm... Blake's got a point. Besides, the police never caught that Torchwick guy Naruto and I ran into a few months ago... Maybe it was him." Ruby said trying to stop the argument between her friends.
"Yeah. Weiss there is no clear evidence that the White Fang is involved." Naruto said in a calm tone to appease the two girls. "But yes the White fang have become increasingly violent in the last few years. It doesn't mean that they want to destroy humanity."
"That still doesn't change the fact that the White Fang are a bunch of scum." Weiss said causing Blake's anger to grow. "Those Faunus only know how to lie, cheat, and steal."
"Now that's to far Weiss!" Robin said narrowing her eyes at her childhood friend. "Some of those Faunus just do it feed their families cause no one would hire them."
"Hey, stop that Faunus!"
Both teams look back over to the docks, where they saw two sailors chasing a young man with a monkey tail. The Faunus had yellow hair similar to Naruto's but looked bleached with blue eyes. He wore a white short sleeved collared shirt with it in buttoned showing off his chest, Blue jean shorts, sneakers and red arm guards.
"Thanks for the ride, guys! Haha!" The Faunus said to his pursuers as he jumps off the ship he was on and hits the dock running.
"You no-good stowaway!" One of the Sailors said angrily shaking his fist to the Faunus.
"Hey! A no-good stowaway would've been caught! I'm a great stowaway!" The Faunus said hanging from a light post with his tail as he pulls out a banana. Before he could eat the fruit, one of the detectives down below throws a stone at him to get his attention.
"Hey! Get down from there this instant!" The First detective called out to the boy who replies by throwing the banana peel at his face.
The Boy then twirls to crouch position on the light post, not before laughing in amusement he jumps off and starts to run away from the detectives. As he ran by both team RWBY and SNRS he gives Blake a flirting wink which pisses Naruto off and continues to run away.
"Well, Weiss, you wanted to see the competition, and there it goes..." Yang said as the Faunus disappears from sight.
"Quick! We have to observe him!" Weiss cries pointing the direction where the detectives where heading.
Yang, Ruby and Weiss start to give chase leaving Blake and team SNRS behind.
"Uh what just happened?" Robin asked confused about the whole ordeal.
"I have no idea." Sakura answered also confused then looks to Sasuke. "Should we follow them?"
"Why are you asking me?" Sasuke asked.
"Cause Naruto looks like he is gonna blow his top off." Sakura said pointing to the Blond leader whose right eye was twitching hard.
"Yeah, we better go after them." Sasuke said as the three start to after their friends leaving Blake and a fuming Naruto behind them. Blake shook her head in confusion and looked to the Blond team leader who muttering curses.
"Naruto are you alright?" Blake asked placing a hand on his shoulder which got Naruto's attention.
"Yeah just fine." Naruto said but got lost in Blake's eye's for a moment as he turned away. "Blake… I was wondering if you wanted to…"
"Naruto come quick!" The pair heard Ruby as they look to each other then proceeded to catch up with the rest of their group.
As Blake and Naruto came up to the group they immediately noticed that Weiss had crashed into a orange hair girl with green eyes, and freckles. She was wearing a whitish-gray old-fashioned blouse with short gray feminine overalls, as well as a black and green collar with a matching pair of stockings.
"Weiss what did you do?" Naruto asked looking towards the heiress who was blushing up a storm.
"Nothing we were following that Faunus when I crashed into this girl!" Weiss said trying to defend herself as she gets off from the girl who has a unfazed smile.
"Sal-u-ta-tions!" The girl said cheerfully greeted looking up to the group of eight.
"Um Hello!" Ruby weakly greeted a bit unnerved by the girls attitude.
"Are you okay?" Sakura asked looking slightly concerned for the girl.
"I am wonderful, thank you for asking." The girl answered in a cheerful tone.
Naruto and the others looked to each other in bewilderment as they looked back at the girl.
"Do you…. Want to get up?" Yang asked looking confused.
"Yes." The girl says after a minute then proceeds to leaps to her feet startling both teams. "My name is Penny! It is a pleasure to meet you."
"Uh hi Penny. My name is Ruby." Ruby said introducing herself to the Girl.
"I'm Weiss." Weiss greeted giving a slight curtsy.
"Blake."
"Are you sure you didn't get hit in the head?" Yang asked but was shoved in the stomach by Sakura who looks over to the pinkette with a heated glare but then looked back at Penny. "Oh, I'm Yang!"
"It's a pleasure to meet you Penny. My name is Robin." Robin said a little forcefully for some reason that Naruto picked up on.
"My name is Sakura Haruno!" Sakura said with a pleasant smile. "Sorry bout that dumb hippo's question."
"Hey!" Yang yelled glaring at Sakura.
"Name's Sasuke Uchiha." Sasuke greeted coldly.
"And my name is…" Naruto began before he was interrupted by Penny.
"I already know who you are Naruto Xiao-Long." Penny said looking to the Blond Huntsman. "I have been programmed to study any and all fights you have partook in."
"Uh… What?" Naruto asked confused.
"In fact 99.9999999% of your fights you tend to fight in close range with your opponents instead of long range engagements using the shotgun features you have at the ends of your weapon unless you are fighting Grimm." Penny explained getting faster and faster the more she talks. "Which you show a 99% percent hostility increase showing absolutely no remorse as you dispatch Grimm."
"Well it was very nice meeting you, but we better get going." Weiss says as she starts to push Naruto away with the group following close behind. "Sorry for running into you."
"Take care, friend." Ruby said to Penny who eye's lit up as the group walked away.
"Well… She was weird." Yang said in a low voice with most of the group nodding their heads in agreement.
"Now where that Faunus run off to." Weiss asked looking to her right for a moment then turned her head to see Penny standing in front of her shocking both her and Yang.
"What did you call me?" Penny asks looking confused.
"Oh, I'm sorry I didn't know you heard me." Yang apologized as Weiss looks back and forth in complete shock that was mirrored by Robin who was equally shocked.
"No, not you." Penny says as she walks through the group and points at Ruby. "You."
"Me? I-I don't know… Um." Ruby says startled
"You called me 'friend'! Am I really your friend?" Penny asked in a excited tone.
"Uuuuumm…." Ruby began as she looked past Penny to her friends and family who were motioning to deny her, especially Naruto who had crossed his arms into an X. "Y-Yeah, sure! Why not?"
This causes everyone to fall down comically as Penny looked overjoyed.
"Sen-sa-tion-al!" Penny laughed as she pulled Ruby into a tight hug and released her. "We can paint our nails, and try on clothes, and talk about cute boys!"
"Was I like this, when we first met?" Ruby asked Weiss as she was dusting herself off.
"No. She is far more coordinated." Weiss said to the girl.
"So... what are you doing in Vale?" Yang asked looking to the girl.
"Yeah… I mean you don't look like you are from Vale." Sakura added crossing her arms.
"I'm here to fight in the tournament." Penny said looking towards the two rivals.
"Wait your here to fight in the tournament?" Both Weiss and Robin said at the same equally shocked.
"Yep. I am Combat ready." Penny said with a salute.
"You don't really look the part." Naruto said in a unsure tone of voice looking at her.
"Wait a minute." Weiss says walking to Penny and places her hand on the girl's shoulders.
"If you're here for the tournament, does that mean you know that monkey-tailed... rapscallion?"
"The who?" Penny asked confused at what Weiss was saying.
"The Filthy Faunus from the boat!" Weiss yelled holding a poorly drawn picture of the guy with the words idiot written above his head and 'Naruto has better abs' written in tiny letters in the bottom left corner.
"Why do you keep saying that?!" Blake yelled tired of the racist remarks coming from Weiss.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Weiss said sarcastically releasing her hold of Penny and motions to objects around her. "Would you like me to stop referring to the trash can as a trash can? Or this lamppost as a lamppost?"
"Stop it!" Blake said as she wanted to lunge at the heiress only to be held back by Naruto who was glaring at Weiss.
"Stop what? He clearly broke the law." Weiss said crossing her arms. "Give him time; he'll probably join up with those other Faunus in the White Fang!"
"You ignorant little brat!" Blake yelled growling and clenches her fist trying to break free of Naruto's grip. "Naruto let go!"
"I am not going to…" Naruto said sternly that even made Ruby cringe knowing full well that he was in what she dubbed 'Big Brother Mode'. "You yelling and complaining at her won't change her mind in the slightest."
"Really your lecturing me now." Blake yelled at the blond breaking free of his grip. "Whose side are you on huh!"
"I'm not taking any sides." Naruto said looking at Blake with a slight glare. "What Weiss said is wrong, but you yelling and raving isn't helping anybody!"
"Guys, I don't think we shouldn't argue…." Ruby began before she was cut off by Blake.
"Me raving. She is acting like how the rest of her family feels towards the Faunus" Blake yelled with tears in her eye's beginning to form. "She is just a judgemental little girl!"
"What in the world makes you say that?" Weiss yelled cutting into Naruto's and Blake's argument.
"The mere fact that you would sort that Faunus boy with a terrorist group solely based on his species makes you just as much of a scoundrel as you believe him to be!" Blake yelled at the heiress snapping in her direction.
"Um, I think we should probably go..." Yang asked the others who were looking extremely uncomfortable.
"Where are we going?" Penny asked happily popping up next to Ruby.
"This needs to stop!" Naruto said still annoyed from his argument with Blake.
"Naruto, I don't think you should…."
"Shut up, you Motherless Bastard!" Blake interrupted slapping Naruto in the face who gains a look of shock.
This caused everyone to look at Blake in shock, as what she said sunk in her mind causing her eye's to widen what she just did.
"N-Naruto, I-I didn't mean to…" Blake began to apologized reaching out to blond but her hand was knocked away.
"Don't touch me!" Naruto yelled his head lowered to where his eyes were shadowed.
"Naru…" Ruby said softly trying to come close her brother only for him to start walking away from the group.
Blake lowered her head in shame for yelling and slapping him. Weiss on the other hand was furious at the girl.
"See what you done." Weiss yelled at the Faunus girl who had tears swelling in her eye as she looks to the heiress with disdain.
"What I done? You caused this to happen." Blake yelled back as she turned away to find the blond. "We have to go after Naruto."
"No!" Ruby said with anger laced in her voice. "Naruto needs to be left alone, especially after what you said Blake."
"Ruby…" Blake said sadly but nodded her head as the young leader turned to Sasuke.
"Can you call us when he gets back?" Ruby asked with sorrowful tone.
"Yeah, we will all as soon he shows!" Sasuke said as the remaining members of SNRS start walking back to the school followed by everyone else except Blake who kept looking to the ground in shame tears falling from her eyes as she thought about what she said to Naruto.
"I'm sorry Naruto, so so sorry." Blake said sorrowful as she looks up to the direction the Blond went then proceeded to follow her teammates back to their dorm.
As Naruto walked through the city ignoring the busy nightlife that the city of Vale brings he sighs to himself as he came to a corner.
"I guess I took that harder than I should of." Naruto said to himself calming down after what Blake had said to him. "It was a heat in the moment thing. Even still I'm not gonna pretend what she said was wrong."
Naruto then turned and noticed a bench and decided to take a seat. Sighing again as he leans back to make himself more comfortable he looks up at the broken moon and stars.
'I sure know how to pick them don't I, Mom?" Naruto thought with a small smile on his face, when suddenly he heard some commotion coming from a shop on the corner.
"Stay out you filthy animal, we don't serve your kind!" A man rudely says as he kicks a young girl which Naruto recognizes immediately as Akeno.
Naruto shot up right away to come to the young girl defense as the man turns to face the blond teen.
"Oh what do you want kid?" The man with a smug tone of voice.
"I'm wondering why you are denying service to this girl? She has done nothing to you." Naruto says narrowing his eyes in disgust.
"I have every right to. If I serve one animal, then I have to serve every stupid mindless Faunus that comes near." The Man said getting annoyed at Naruto.
"You bastard! She is just a kid." Naruto growled about to socked this guy in the face.
"You wanna go kid? Cause I show you who ya messing with you brat!" The man yelled cracking his knuckles.
Naruto was about to retort until he felt a pull on his jacket causing him to turn to Akeno who had tears welling up in her eyes.
"Please don't fight, Naruto." Akeno muttered causing the man to stare at shock at Naruto.
"Wait did that kid just call you Naruto?" The man asked stilled annoyed but calmed.
"Yeah, so what? It's just my name!" Naruto said continuing to glare at the man.
"Do you think I can get your autograph? My daughter is a big fan of yours." The Man asked grumpily rubbing the back of his neck.
"What?! Why the hell do mean give you an autograph after what you just did to her." Naruto angrily said gesturing to Akeno.
"Look I just got a little heated, I have nothing against Faunus it's really an act." Man explained more calm then before.
"What do you mean it's an act?" Naruto asked unsure at the man meaning.
"Listen, The Man that own the building my shop is in is very Anti-Faunus so I have to shun away all the Faunus publicly, but in turn I really have them come out back so I can sell them whatever they want half off." The Man continued causing Naruto's eyes to widen. "Akeno is actually one of my frequent customers always comes here with some guys in a Black Coat and get some Ice Cream."
"Then why did you throw her out?" Naruto asked keeping his guard up.
"Cause the owner is in the other room right now, I'm sorry Akeno." The Man answered as he directs his attention to Akeno.
"It's fine." Akeno said in a sad tone, but kept her smile as she begins to walk down the street.
"She is a good kid, she reminds me a lot of my daughter in fact." The Man said gaining Naruto's attention. "If I was her father I would be deeply proud of the maturity she has."
"Yeah, your right." Naruto agreed then turned back to the man. "Sorry about earlier, do you still want that autograph?"
"Nah it's fine." The Man answered. "Maybe if you ever come by again I'll introduce to her to ya. It would mean the world to me to put a smile on my little girls face."
"Sure, it's a promise." Naruto said with a nod then turned and proceeded to follow Akeno.
"Akeno, wait up!" Naruto called out causing the girl to turn to the blond. "Hey you okay?"
"Mmhmm. Why wouldn't I be." Akeno asked leaning back in forth while keeping the sad expression on her face.
"Akeno seriously, why do you look like your about to burst into tears?" Naruto asked again with more concern in his voice when suddenly the young girl turned and hugged his waist. Naruto was puzzled by the sudden action of the girl as she looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
"Do you hate me?" Akeno asked with tears crawling down the sides of her cheeks.
"Huh? What do you mean, why would I hate you?" Naruto asked kneeling down to Akeno's level.
"Cause Uncle said you would hate me… Papa." Akeno said shocking Naruto as he looked at his now revealed Daughter.
"W-What did you just called me Akeno?" Naruto asked shakily as Akeno kept looking at him.
"Papa." Akeno answered Naruto as he lost all feeling in his legs and fell to the ground.
"Akeno, who said I was you father. And how can I be your father your what 10?" Naruto asked trying to wrap his head around what Akeno said.
"I-I don't know the how exactly." Akeno said looking at her father as she sat down with him. "From what I understand, I am in a sense a clone of you and mommy."
"A clone?" Naruto said to to no one.
"Yes, Uncle said that a man named Vexen wanted clone you to create the ultimate warrior." Akeno explained as best she could.
"Ultimate Warrior?"
"I don't really understand it at all." Akeno continued. "I guess if I had to make a guess, it would because if something were to happen to you or uncle."
"Huh, wait are you saying that black cloaked jerk stronger than me!" Naruto said slightly offended.
"No, I don't know I can tell your stronger than him, but not more powerful." Akeno said confusing the blond huntsman.
"Wait, how can I be stronger than him, but be less powerful than him?" Naruto asked the young girl.
"Uncle says cause you lost your reason to fight." Akeno answered unsure of herself.
"Lost my reason to fight?" Naruto said to himself.
Back at team RWBY's dorm Weiss and Blake continued their argument over what happen back in town.
"I said was sorry okay." Blake yelled to the Heiress glaring at the girl dangerously.
"That doesn't matter, you shouldn't of said that in the first place!" Weiss fired back at Blake with an equal glare. "He looked so hurt because of you."
"It was a heat of a moment thing, because of you." Blake continued to yell.
"Because of me!?" Weiss said baffled at what Blake said. "You realize you were defending an organization that hates Humanity, don't you? The Faunus of the White Fang are pure evil!"
"Are you serious?" Blake asked heated at the argument. "There's no such thing as pure evil! Why do you think they hate Humanity so much? It's because of people like Cardin, people like you, that force the White Fang to take such drastic measures!"
"People like me?"
"You're discriminatory!" Blake yelled.
"I'm a victim!" Weiss shot back as they stare each other down in silence, Weiss leaned in, leering as she continued to speak quietly. "You want to know why I despise the White Fang? Why I don't particularly trust the Faunus? It's because they've been at war with my family for years. War, as in actual bloodshed. My grandfather's company has had a target painted across its back for as long as I can remember. And ever since I was a child, I've watched family friends disappear; board members executed; an entire train car full of Dust, stolen. And every day, my father would come home, furious. And that made for a very difficult childhood."
"Weiss, I-" Ruby began finally summoning the courage to say something, but was immediately cut off by Weiss.
"No!" Weiss yelled turning back to Blake. "You want to know why I despise the White Fang? It's because they're a bunch of liars, thieves, and murderers!"
"Well maybe we were just tired of being pushed around!" Blake yelled suddenly causing everyone to look at her with shock as Weiss steps back slowly, Blake realizing her mistake looks around the room at her teammates. "I... I..."
"Blake?" Ruby began before Blake dashed out the door Ruby following behind, but stopped at the door. "Wait! Come back!" Ruby called out to no avail as the girl was already gone. The young leader turned back to her remaining teammates only to see that Yang was sitting down from the shock and Weiss hanging her head low.
"Naruto." Ruby said softly. "Where are you?"
Blake runs outside to the statue of a huntsman in the courtyard of the dorms, as she stops to catch her breath she looks to the statue as her eye's linger to the Beowolf depiction on the bottom of the statue then sighed. With tears in her eyes, she closes her eyes and slowly lifts her arms up to her bow and pulls the string to release the bow from her hair revealing her cat ears to the world.
"So they finally found out, huh?" Voice calls out startling Blake who turns to see Menma leaning on a pedestal behind her. "Though the look on the Schnee's face was priceless, I have to say Blake."
"W-who are you?" Blake said wearily reaching for gambol shroud. "How do you know my name?"
"Really you don't remember me, of course it has been 3 years baby sister!" Menma said shocking Blake as she back up slowly with fear in her eye's.
"Menma?!" Blake asked fearfully as Menma grabs his hood pulling it off revealing a young man about 19 with and angular face of a fox with black spikey hair. On the sides of his cheeks were 3 darken whisker markings that gives him a feral look.
"It's good to see you after all this time, Blake." Menma said opening his eyes with a slight smirk on his face.
"What are you doing here?" Blake said slowly unsure of her brothers sudden appearance.
"I came here looking for your little boyfriend." Menma said in a annoyed tone looking around the courtyard. "He has something of mine that I want back!"
"My boyfriend… what are you." Blake began and then came to the realization of who he was looking for. "Naruto. You are looking for Naruto aren't you?"
"Ding ding ding." Menma rang. "You won first prize, you see like I said he has something I want back."
"And what would that be?" Blake said as she kept her hand on her weapon as she circles her older brother.
"Now that be telling, wouldn't it?" Menma said in a calm tone.
"Tell me anyway!" Blake said pulling out her weapon and pointing it at her brother.
Menma sighed with slight annoyance at the persistence his little sister was showing. He then walked toward the statue Blake was staring at earlier then turned back to his sister.
"If you must know, I'm looking for your daughter!" Menma said shocking Blake completely.
"What do you mean my daughter?" Blake asked keeping her weapon raised at Menma. "I don't have a daughter, especially one with Naruto!"
"Well technically you would be right. Akeno would fall under more the category of your clone." Menma explained with a shrug.
"A clone?" Blake asked confused.
"Yeah, a combination of yours and Naruto's DNA to make the perfect warrior, or so the scientist that accomplished it said." Menma said with a small smirk. "Honestly, they wanted her to be around your age with rapid aging, but I stepped in."
"How old is she?" Blake asked curiously.
"Physically and mentally she is 10 years old, but in a technical sense she is only 10 months old." Menma answered pulling out a picture of Akeno and threw it to Blake.
"This is…"
"That is Akeno, Blake believe me I was just as surprised." Menma said softly as he walked toward his little sister. "She looks so, much like you when you were at that age."
"Why?" Blake asked with tears in her eye's causing Menma to look at her in confusion.
"Why what?" Menma asked back confused at the question posed to him.
"Why did you come back!" Blake yelled to her brother tears streaming down her eye as she clutches the picture of Akeno. "Why are you after Naruto? What has he ever done to you to cause you loathing him?"
"Because he and I destined to fight Blake." Menma answered calmly his eyes narrowing. "Besides why do you care, it's not like he cares about you or anything."
"I don't believe that!" Blake's said.
"You don't huh." Menma said then gained a smirk. "Oh I see. You fell for him didn't you?"
"What I didn't…" Blake began before she was cut off by her Brother.
"It's obvious Blake, don't try to hide the fact you have feelings for him." Menma said summoning a blade in a ray of Darkness and white lightning in a shape of a key. The blade had a combination of silver and black throughout the blade with 4 spearheads on the bottom of the blade varying in color of Black and silver. The guard around the hilt was black with two points sticking out toward the blade end with 3 silver Spearheads on one side and 2 on the other. In the center of the guard was a symbol of a upside down heart that was empty. At the end of the blade was a keychain with with an X on the end. "It's sad though."
"What is?" Blake asked as she stepped back at the appearance of Menma's weapon.
"If we weren't caught in a ancient struggle, I would actually would approve of him." Menma said before swiping his weapon to deflect a spear thrown at him.
"Now now Menma, can't be telling secrets." A voice called out to Menma causing Blake to turn and see a woman wearing the same coat as her brother, but with the hood up as she stepped off the roof and landed gracefully on the ground.
"What you doing here?" Menma asked getting defensive at the sudden appearance of the woman.
"The mission is about to begin and you fooling around with some girl." The woman explained picking her spear off the ground as she turns to face the two siblings.
"Can't a brother have a conversation with his little sister?" Menma asked sarcastically with a shrug.
"We both know that's not what you were here for." The woman said coming up to the blacked haired teen. "You were looking for Akeno weren't you?"
"Yes, I think she is with Naruto, but apparently he is also nowhere to be found." Menma explained causing the woman to step back when Naruto was mentioned. Blake noticed a small trickle of tears coming from the Woman, but said nothing.
"So do you have any leads?" The woman asked wiping her face quickly.
"This is the only place I could think to look." Menma said gaining a annoyed look. "Of course the best person to ask was my dear sister. After all she is in love with him."
"Is that so?" The Woman asked as she began to circle around Blake as if she was eyeing her up. Blake noticed a bit of Moonlight piercing the woman's hood revealing that she has silver eyes.
"Hmm alright then." The woman said raising her arm up as a purple portal appeared. "Let's go Menma, Axel is waiting for us."
"What about Akeno?" Menma asked worried about his niece.
"If she is with Naruto, then she is safe." The woman answered assuring. "We can find her after the mission is over."
With that said the woman stepped in and disappeared leaving the only the two siblings behind. Menma turned to his sister who was staring at him with a hint of worry.
"Well looks like this is where we part ways again, see ya Blake." Menma says as he follows his compatriot through the portal, but was stopped immediately by Blake.
"Don't go please, not again." Blake said tears forming in her eyes.
"Blake. Sorry." Menma said as Blake looked up to her brother only to gain a look of pain as Menma dug his fist in her stomach causing Blake to become unconscious.
"Hey! Why did you do that to her?" Voice yelled out causing Menma to see the Faunus that Blake encountered in the Market earlier today.
"Because, I want to keep her safe." Menma said gentle picking Blake up and carried her over to the statue. Setting her down slowly, Menma turned to the Faunus who had a bo staff out pointing it at him.
"How is knocking her unconscious, keeping her safe?" He asked with a glare keeping the weapon trained on Menma.
"To make sure she doesn't follow me." Menma answered as he then turned to walk back to the portal. "I trust you can watch over her?"
"Wait, What!" The Faunus said confused. "What do you mean watch over her."
"See ya, Little Kat." Menma said not answering the boys question as the portal closes.
"Hey wait!" The Faunus said as he ran towards the portal only to miss it by a second. "Damn it!"
"Hmph." Blake mumbled as she woke up and noticed that she was in the courtyard still. Raising her hand to her head as a rush of memories about what happened to her came in. "Menma!?"
"Whoa, Whoa calm down it's fine. That guy is gone." A voice said to her causing Blake to look up at the boy from the Market.
"I see." Blake answered solemnly as she got up and turned to her watcher. "Thank you umm…"
"Oh sorry, the names Sun." Sun said slightly cheerful for some reason.
"Well thank you, Sun. I guess." Blake said as she begins to walk away.
"Hey where you going?" Sun asked following behind her.
"I have to prove that the White Fang aren't behind these robberies." Blake said narrowing her eyes. "As well as to find Naruto."
"You mean the Yellow Flash? Why do you need to find him, is he your boyfriend or something?" Sun asked with a raised brow.
"What? No, I said something terrible to him. Something I would take back in a instant." Blake explained in a sad tone as if she was about to tear up again. "I have to set what I did right."
"What you did?" Sun asked to no one in particular. "It seems to me that you think about the past to much."
"What do you mean." Blake asked confused.
"Well why do you need to prove that the White Fang isn't involved with all the robberies in town." Sun asked. "I mean just cause the White Fang are a bunch of insane Faunus, does not mean a thing or at least that what I think."
"Your trying to get to know me aren't you?" Blake asked narrowing her eyes slightly.
"I mean kinda." Sun said nervously then regained his composure. "But I have to say you look a lot better without the bow."
"She had been gone all weekend..." Ruby said in a sad tone as the 3 members of team RWBY roamed downtown Vale looking for their lost teammate. "Worse of all, no one has seen Naruto at all."
"Ruby, Naruto will be fine he can take care of himself. I'm more worried about Blake right now." Yang said to her sister as the 3 looked around.
"Blake's a big girl, I'm sure she can handle herself!" Weiss said in a annoyed tone.
"Weiss, come on. She's one of our teammates." Yang fired back glaring slightly toward her white-haired teammate.
"Is she? We all heard what she said!" Weiss said returning aglare to Yang.
"Weiss." Ruby said sadly.
"Maybe she is, maybe she isn't. Either way, she's missing, and we need to find her!" Yang said shrugging her shoulders as she pushes ahead of the group of 3.
"A member of the White Fang! Right underneath our noses!" Weiss said to herself as she begins to follow Yang leaving only Ruby behind.
"I just hope she's okay..." Ruby said sadly as she started to move until her scroll started ringing. The young girl pulled out her scroll to look to see who was calling her and her eye's lighted up like a Christmas tree. "Naruto…"
Hearing what their leader said both Yang and Weiss looked back at Ruby in shock.
"Naruto where are you?" Ruby said in a worried tone.
"I'm currently by the docks." Naruto answered his voice sounding tired. "Sorry just been a long weekend."
"Are you okay?" Ruby asked.
"Yeah I'm just fine, Ruby can you and Yang meet me here real quick? There is someone I need for you to meet." Naruto said.
To be continued… Yeah I know I said it would be a super chapter, but I don't think it would be out till next year. I tried but I ultimately decided to split the chapter in two. Also I want to make something abundantly clear Blake does not know about Summer, she said that out of anger and spite. I know a lot of people who will say stuff they don't mean and this is one of those moments. So until next time...
