Last chapter saw the group getting new outfits and upgrades to their weapons. but let see how they handle them along with seeing what the council is up belongs to Rooster Teeth and Monty Oum. I own the OC's, AU. hope you enjoy
Chapter 11:A New Way of seeing things
Inside the council office right now they were all in the middle of getting prepared for their in person meeting right now. As most of them where in attendance right now though mactavished seemed on edge right now from the recent events as of late along with winter joining them today. But right now sleet started today conversation
"So…shall we start out conversation today or are we going to sit here twiddling our thumps"Sleet rudely started
"Honestly sleet right now i am processing the death of my soilders. I don't need your attiue"Artemis said still hurt right now
As camilia scoffed into a chuckle at that mention of them
"Well seems your soldiers aren't all the best. They did what they needed for their kingdom and what they were ordered to"Camilia rduely replied
But this made the commander snap as artemis reached her into her boot pulling out a throwing knife. Then she threw it as it narrowly missed the women in her head. Camilia looked behind her seeing the knife in the wall behind her where her head was
"Watch your dam mouth….no one in our army is just some expandable shield. They risekd their lives and i…i need to break the news to their familys"artemis said sitting up in her chair staring the women down with teary eyes
"Do you know the feeling of having to tell someone parents that their child is dead. That they died under my watch…my command…i've been cursed at…hit….threanted and told that i should be dead. Not them"artemis said
But caine placed hand on her as she stared at him seeing a symapthetic look on his face. Sitting back down to calm herself camilia sighed placing hands together
"Your…um right dear. Sorry just a little stressed is all right now with whats been happening. Luckily one of the knights of grimm are gone"camilia said
Sleet regrettable had to agree with her on that actually
"I would have to agree with her on that. I heard from one of your soldiers that one of them put them down. Seems…not all of them terrible"Sleet added making her roll her eyes seeing their sympathy right now scoffing slightly.
"People we need to get on the topic at hand right now. Because we have a special guest joining us today right now"caine said gesutirng to a door
As stepping through the door right now was henry knight along with his partner nancy. The two dectvies took some seats with henry sitting next to james but sleet eyed them down for a bit
"Who are you two exactly?"sleet qeuestioned as nancy flashed her mistral police badge to them
"Mistral dectives along with that names nancy…good old hens here partner in the police world"nancy replied
Henry had a cup of coffee with him right now setting it down rubbing his face because he didn't expect to be in an atlas meeting today. He planned to go over some of the evidence with nike and willow today. But she had to do surgery or whatever
"I'm henry knight….though an old buddy of the general here. "Henry aid making ironwood chuckle slightly
"Your being too modest on yourself old friend. This would be someone i was with in the academy along with being someone assiting us. With our…jacque problem"ironwood said as they knew what he meant now
"You hired detectives…while i would deplore you for asking without the council permission. It would be wise to keep them hidden"sleet replied compliemtning his actions. But that made artemis bring up yesterday events
"Oh speaking of that. Mactavish sir you need to have a word with letneaut general cerry"artemis said which got their attention on that right now espeically witners riaisng an eye toward her
"What did she do this time? Let me guess try to raise her rank up to replace james. "Witner said with a huff at the end
"If you mean bringing jacque into my home. Along with that harl boy and his father who believe your dear sister is owned by them. "Caine said
This made winter stand still right now upright hearing that he broke the rules and got through security. But to make someone belvie her younger sister is some sort of property to them right now as she felt very disgusted right now. Slowly witner clenched her fist threatening to break a nail right now
"That…that…that man thinks he can own my sister like some sort of property. Tell her that she has to date that littler leech jasper harl."winter said with a forced smile on her face as a vein threatned to burst on her forehead
She slowly torn into her gloves oicnhing her skin making it bleed slightly from what she was hearing
"General…permission to launch a full on assault on my home. Because their are vermin and pest their right now"witner growled with a cold tone returning to her old ice queen personality right now. But the general shook his head
'Schnee we need to be careful. We may have the numbers to storm the house but right now it may be sucide. Who knows if they installed epxlsoive charges throughout the city"ironwood said worrying them
"If that may be the case…we should do more proepr ivneisations on this part."sleet said with worry right now for the kingdom.
"That where we come in because i discuss it with willow this morning. But we got some people willing to testify against that man right now. A women and her child, the women used to be apart of those mines. She escaped with her little brother who missing still it seems. But they were recently held captive back in vale in a faunus black market"he paused eyeing witner for a moment
"Where commander schnee younger sister saved them alongside a dual traited wolf faunus"he added making winter like the sound of her sister doing that right now
"Well that does give us some leverage right now i'm holding her in my home. Shes…very scared worried that we may throw her in those mines. But i'm sure once this is over we can dismantle the current labor laws their"caine added
The general was starting to like the sound of this. Because he may have been friend with jacque in the past but hes opened his eyes now. All he see now is a man that needs to be put behind bars.
"Do you have any other evidence with your right now? Because with that many witness to testify along with the documents that link to his many crimes. It may prove to be enough to put him behind bars during the court hearing"ironwood siad
The two dectives got quiet right now before sharing a look with caine and robyn right now. The two council members shared looks with one another silently nodding in agreement on something
Caine swallowed tugging on his collar"actually uh yes we have recently discovered some new evidence actually"he added to their surprise
"What is it? Spit it out because we still need to discuss what to do with those criminals that were broguht here"camilia said as they hesitated for a bit as henry exhaled slowly deciding to tell his friend another awful crime that man commited
"We found someone recently that is here in atlas right now. That….they are the blood daughter of jacque schnee along with one of his housemaids. He assault a poor women getting her prengnat with a child"henry said the harsh evidence they procured
This made the room dead silent right now as sleet went wide eyed in complete shock. As camilia looked comply disgusted by that as artemis dropped her cigarette into a nearby ash mactavish looked appalled and disgust
But for ironwood the man had anger slowly building up right now in his veins. The general slowly clenched hair robotic fist as he inhaled in then out a few times to calm his nerves. But he slammed his metal hand down creating a dent in the table
"That man did what?'he asked trying to be calm with his tone
"I…i….excuse me…are you lying to us because i…god i shook hands with that man. I was in willow home…i slept in one of their bed"sleet added in complete disgust right now with camilia taking a sip of some water to wrap her hand around this right now
Artemis eye slowly twitched in anger"i want to issue a full raid on that entire manor right now"She added
"Dective knight do you have the girl with you. If we bring her forward right now we can–"matasivhs was stopped
"Your not bringing that poor girl in. i only found out recently that she was one of my shelter workers. But that poor girl shouldn't be brought into this yet"robyn objected to their confusion
"Why the hell not? Because we bring her out to the public and we can force a trial right now with the court. Then we can arrest him on the spot today even"sleet argued but the general studied robyn face for a moment seeing her worried as he figured it out
"Does she know?"he suddenly asked
"What do you mean james? I'm sure someone would know who their parents by blood are"camilia replied
"Yes. what don't tell me did someone hide the fact from her who her parents were"sleet asked smugly but he was right
"They did….that girl doens't know who they are because her adoptive mother told her they died in a mine collpase. That…both of them are dead…she doesn't even know about it."robyn said stunning the two for a moment as they stayed silent trying to process all of this
Nancy sighed placing her hands together"look we've talked to her mother and suggested we do it slowly with her at some point. She know that if she hears that she was the product of…rape she may lash out."nancy supported
Mactvaish thought for a moment on how to approach this before coming to a decision
"Alright. We'll let you two and willow handle breaking the news to her. Now on the topic of adam tarrus and subject omega. What shall we do with them now?"mactvaished asked
"We put them on trial now to face their crimes. Well tarrus i'm sure that terroist feels no ounce of guilt in his bodie"sleet said
'Acutally he does….because when he arrived me and james here used my semblance on him. Came to my shock to hear that kid feels guilty"robyn said but some werne't buying it right now
"Are you trying to defend that terrorist?"camilia said but the detectives spoke up on her account right now
"Actually she got a point. From what we gathered from raven branwhen that boy spent almost two months of winter sister. But not once has he attacked her…..hell kid offered me to slap the cuffs on his wrist. Though he was being mis lead"henry said
"Mislead by who exactly? We can't exactly let someone like him roam around free now can we?"sleet argued as the general had an idea on that actually
"Actually no. tarrus wants to redeem himself by stopping the people who are trying to destory the kingdoms of remnant. He helped stop havan and now he wants to assist atlas. The same people who took away a poor child parents and his childhood"ironwood paused leaning forward staring the council down
"While we let the same man who did such acts in this very room. Jacque has destroyed several families over the years…we should put him to good use"he added sounding crazy right now
'Are you mad? Let someone like him roam around free and–"sleet was stopped
'Not free. I've tasked artemis soldiers to keep a close watch on him twenty four seven along with one of my ace ops. The same for omega, believe me talking to a grimm hybrid that didn't attack me surprised me"ironwood replied
Robyn nodded before snapping her fingers with an idea""you know heres an idea. You all rember how jacque forced williow on morning with sepia?"robyn asked making their interest peeked
"Yes. what about her….what you wanna put willow on their again"Sleet asked but he was wrong
"No. artemis when do you plan to have a funeral for your spartans?"robyn asked confuisn the women who thought for a moment sighing right now
"In a few days why?"she replied as robyn smiled at that
"We make the two appear on her show while we hold a small parade honoring their deaths. While that happens we get the two of them to talk about their guilt for their actions. Along with wanting to redeem themselves in the eyes of the public. Make them say they would like to pay their respects for the soldiers that died being forced to protect them"robyn said
As they all thought about it for a moment it didn't sound like a bad idea
"That…actually sounds very smart now that i think about it"caine supported
"I'm with you on that. As i may hate those two right now…we need something to take down those other grimm knights"camilie agreed
"Then where all in agreement in the coming day we will discuss with her to appear on her show. Though james tomorrow send a small group of soldiers to dust mine #5 lately i got reports of guards going missing."mactavish said as henry rubbed his chin with a theory
"Well maybe we should start investgaitng all of them. What if jacque replaced them with those talon mercs…just a theory"henry said
"Maybe depends on what we find their"artemis said as they concluded their meeting walking outside. But as they did ironwood noticed someone their right now that being oscar who wore something different
That being an olive coat with shoulder pads and a belt that are dark red. Underneath he wore a white collared shirt and banged wrapped around his neck. His glove are slightly open u shaped with a black x pattern wrist straps. Along with wearing black trosuers and red boots with orange at the toe
"Excuse me young man why are you here?"caine asked
"Oh uh well uh…i came with the group that was escorted to atlas. "Oscar replied
"Then why are you here? Why aren't you with your little friends?"artemis asked as the farm boy rubbed his neck for a moment
"Well uh my uh…father told me he was a good friend of yours general. He said…you where the best fighter when he knew you. This may sound strange but maybe we could uh–"oscar was stopped as the general helped with the lie
"Ah your father…i think i know who your talking about. Jacob…why don't we head back to the academy to talk"ironwood said as winter followed him back to the academy
Meanwhile in a simply general hospital right now owend by williow. In a waiting room for surgery right now was may in a paitents gown without her beanie right now showing her cracked prosthetic eye right now. But she was very nervous with what might happen if things don't go as plan
"Dear i understand your nervous. But don't be the procedure will take a while but i promise you things will go smoothly"williow reassured in a pair of doctors scrubs alongside her was klein in some as well
"Indeedi have assist willow when she first started out. "Klein said before his personality chage with red eyes
"Though the las did accidentally stitch a patient opening leaving her wedding ring in them. "He added making willow jab him on the shoulder as he laughed slightly. But that made her nervous
"Oh great your making me even more nervous right now"may whined in fear
This made them regret that joke as with her were her partners. Along with a couple others mainly being cardin, yumi, eria along with vesa. As they wanted to help out as they stayed silent for a moment till an idea came to eria
"Look may…speaking from experience i was nervous about mine. Yours is well a little different"eria said trying to make them seem the same. But she was going to get her eye ripped out
"Oh i'm more than nervous…this is my skull where talking about"may said
This made her give up right now though that was when cardin had an idea thinking of one thing
"If you just get it over with i'll make grimm boy sing you that song again. Then make him make fly you around atlas for a bit"cardin said
"Wait but i…"zane was stopped
"Okay…but he has to do the same for those three too."may said as he tried to argue but stared at his other three girlfriend giving him that look. He sighed nodding in agreement to do it.
Soon enough they took may into the surgery room as they had placed the tools out ready to use. They strapped her down as may was a little scared as carmine put protective equipment on as she looked at her
"Dear calm down you'll be fine just count down from ten when i place this on you"Carmine said holding the mask as she nodded. Starting up the machine she placed it over her mouth as the sniper began to inhale starting to count
"Ten….nine…eight…seven….six"may counted allowed slowly feeling the drugs effects coming on right now slowly closing her eyes as well.
"five….four..th-"She stopped at three beginning to slip under the effect of the drugs. As she began to dream about the day her parents got her prosthetic eye
Dream sequence
It was years ago in the capital of vacuo right now with the sandy deserts and rolling hill. With the occasionally cultist or bandit activity in the dunes right now. But right now being escorted through the city at that moment was a young may who had her signature beanie seeming around ten years old. But she held two people hands right now her parents
Her father was a tall man seeming in his late twenties right now with tanned skin and amber colroed eyes. While he had black hair cut short with a mustache and goatee. While he wore some tan jeans with brown boots along with wearing a black tanktop underneath a maroon vest.
While for her mother she was close to the man age with slightly tanned skin but her hair was dusky rose like her. As it reached the middle of her back with her eyes being dark gray. She had a slender frame to her while wearing short tan skirt with a deep blue blouse top with some sandals.
Her father name was flyod while his wife name was susan. As the young beanie girl was curious
"Where are we going?"may asked as flyod sighed reaching picking her up holding her in his arms placing one arm underneath her
"Were off to see the doctor right now. Because we got a surprise for you when we get their"flyod said but this made the young girl freeze up on that thinking of one thing….needles
"I don't wanna get a shot…i got one last month"may pouted with a singular teary eye but her mother shook her head at that
"No…no nothing like that. When we get their you need to take a nap then they'll reveal a surprise for you"susan siad
Trusting her mother words she did as they went to the doctor. It showed them checking in while she played with some toys in the waiting room. Then it showed her parents talking to a doctor with words she coudln't understand quite well.
But after that it soon showed her in a patient gown being put to sleep. Though aftet that she soon found herself slowly waking herself up right now. As the little girl felt weird right now like something was inside her head. But she felt around the left side of her face feeling banadgaes their. Though her parents where by her side along with a doctor
"Doctor shes awake"Susan cried in joy as a doctor walked over examining her right now
"Well it appears she is…how are you feeling right now sweetie?"the doctor asked as the young sniper groaned a little
"My head feels funny….why are their bandaids on my face?"may innocently asked as her father chuckled with a soft expression
"Because sweetie the reason we've worked so much is to get you something. Because well…you know how you we told you when momma had you. You were missing a part?"flyod asked as she nodded
Slowly the doctor walked over with some scissors gently sniping away the bandages. As he did soon enough he took them off handing her a mirror showing her something. That being a amber mechanical eye making her confused right now as her parents smiled right now.
"Congrualtion sweetie you are one of few people with a special little eye."the doctor said as the dream ended right their for her right now
Dream sequence end
Slowly opening her eyes from the dream world may stirred awake groaning right now rubbing her head. It felt like someone tore around in their right now. But as she was awake she gathered her surrounding seeing the others their waiting for her to wake up. As cardin glanced at her for a moment then glanced back
"Hey guys shes awake"cardin called out which got all their attention
"Oh thank god…we thought you went into a coma like him"eden said pointing at their boyfriend
Carmine walked over sighing in relief"thank goodnes your awake how are you feeling right now dear"she asked as the sniper groaned
'You tore into my skull to take out my eye…wait does that mean…"she paused as willow walked over with some scissors. Slowly she began to snip the bandages wrapped around her left eye. As she did they all waited in antciptation as slowly she snipped the last of it away to reveal her new prosthetic eye. It showed a mechnicla eye long with it being ambers colored.
Though from her perspective she noticed something strange right now. That being her left side of her perception. Because it wasn;t hazy at all as it showed everything in clear view to her. May kept looking around worrying them
"Hey you good….oh do not tell me it made her blind"yumi said but she spoke up
"No…i…i can see clearly. My other eye…i had a tough time seeing through it at times. Why is it different?"may questioned
"Well quite simply the remaining parts from the last one where a perfect fit for your new one. But this one was quite smaller and less bulky. We didn't need to jam it in your optical socket, reattching the nerves was a tough task. But we managed to…"he was stopped as the sniper leaped from her bed hugging the man right with tears coming out both her eyes
'Thank you…thank you so much"She cired outloud as the man appreciated it. As she just got her new eye, but they wondered what the others where doing right now.
But right now the others were busy doing one thing trying and testing their new weapons. They where in the academy right now getting some pratice in with the others watching from the observation room to avoid bein unforeseen casualties.
But they where watching one thing right now going on. That being team RWBY vs team FNKI right now. As the two teams where going straight at it with each other. As right now it seemed to be a losing battle with both sides.
As right now yang was halfway down with weiss at almost half herself. Ruby was still close to the green for her with blakes running dangerously low herself right now. With neon about half as well, with fkynt in the green along with kobalts. Ivori was in the orange almost but they all were squaring off with their own partners right now
With ruby ontop of a column right now firing off at kobalt right now. As he kept doding her sniper shot dashing from cover to cover trying to figure out a way to hit her off her tower right now. While neon was taunting and fighting with yang like they did in the vytal festival as the blonde was trying hard not to get anger.
With blake squaring off with flynt and his own clones as the two kept using up their clones desotyring one. Then weiss was busy doding ivori whip strikes from his weapon the entire time. As they kept fighting for a bit ruby sighed quickly eyeing the board in the room nodding
"everyone regroup!"ruby called out. Saying that they all back off from their opponents at that moment as they all eyed their aura forming up right now with team FNKI regrouping themselves right now.
"So anyone getting pissed off or is it jsut me"yang growled with crimson eyes
"I told you not to take her….thats how she gets in your head"weiss replied reminding her of the vytal festival
"We need a new plan i'm low on aura….but so is ivori"blake said
Ruby gathered their current aura and their enemies right now as watching them right now was summer. Who was quite invested in what might happen, she seen her daughter in actions seeing how smart she is with her tactic. But she wondered how she would get out of this right now. As ruby called out a play
"Time to try out the new strategy. Volcano!"ruby ordered as immediately weiss planted her sword down onto the floor. Then she began to summon her arma geigas while blake used her other form of her semblance summoning two teal colored clones as she pointed her sword forward for them to head forward. With ruby pulling her sniper out at the ready as yang began to channel her rage into something useful right now
Noticing this both kobalt and neon dashed forward to interpreted them at that moment. Though that was when both of blakes ice clone struck. As from above one leaped down onto kobaly tackling him shattering covering him in ice holding him into place. While neon dodge the one trying to get her she stuck her tongue out at it
"Ha ha miss me miss me now you gotta–"she was stopped as a loud sniper shot rang out from ruby sniper. The shot pentetrated her sending her flying back onto the ground landing where kobaly was. As the icy clone of blake dive bomb from above landing ontop of the cat faunus freezing her in palace at that moment
While flynt and ivori nodded to get other as ivori flicked his whip coiling it around a bar inbetween some cubes. He began to swing up to it using the momentum to get ontop of them right now. While flyntt went after his two stuck teammates to free them from their confinement of ice. But that what ruby wanted
As close by blake pivoted her feet flexing her hand launching her prosthetic hand forward. Then she propelled herself forward to meet ivori who unfroutnaly didn't have enhahcned fuanus hearing. Blake zipped up in his path startling him as she spin kicked him off the ledge. This sent him flying down onto the ground as he landed right where neon and kobaly where still stuck. As flynt joined him wondering what they where planning
Soon enough weiss finished summoning her armga gigas as yang roared punching her fist together erupting in flames. This caught them offguard as now standing covered in flames was yang who cracked her neck. Then her knuckles with loud pops being heard.
The arma gigas reached down picking up the blonde like some baseball. Weiss flicked her wrist commanding it to throw her. As the summon knight did tossing the blonde straight into the four as neon eyes sank into her skull seeing that right now. Before she even said a word the blonde collided with them at that moment
Then the scoreboard in the room started to drop their aura down by alot as team FNKi all reached the red along with yang. Their was a thick dust cloud in the room right now as it slowly dispepared to reveal yang groaning a little ontop of a dogpile with all member of team FNKI groaning as well. Watching this was mariana who laughed seeing that pressing a button
"Dam kids….that what i call a fine play. Team RWBY are the winners"mariana said as the doors to the room opened. With ruby walking over helping her sister up as weiss and blake helped up flynt and neon. Along with ivroi and kobalt but neon was starry eyed right now
"That…was amazing! You can set yourself on fire! When could you do that?!"neon shotued
"Yeah seriously you didn't do that in our last scrap"flynt asked
Yang heaved slightly from all the spinning but held it down
"Oh you know semblance evolved…ughhh you guys good…i think i'm…i might hurl"yang said heaving again
'Don't do it or your the new vomit boy….or well vomit girl"blake cheekly said making ruby hold a laugh back but bursted into laughter pointing at her sister. As yang stared at her girlfriend who had a grin.
They decided to join the others up top as asani nerovusly handed ruby a water bottle. But she took it unscrewing the cap taking a swig feeling immense relief
'Thanks"she thanked smiling making the girl mask display a blushing emoticon making her blush now.
"So you can cover yourself in fire now. This is well…interesting to say the least"pyrrha commented
"Yeah it is….though i wonder where everyone else is."rogue asked but someone spoke up from behind
"Oh well where back from surgery fianlly guess who got a new eye."cardin said as they all turned around seeing may walking around without her beanie covering her eye to their surprise
"Wait your walking around without your beanie covering your eye"wiess pointed out cooling off from their sparing session
"Well apparently this new eye fixes my balance problems with the old one. I can see everything now…."may said still finding this to be a shock as razma ruined it right now
"Oh so you can see your partners good while you swap spit"razma cooed as vesa walks over bonking her in the head as she winced. Though as they got ther soon enough mariana decided to ask them something
"Hey any of you wanna go next for a sparring session. We got some scrambled teams but who wants a go at it"she asked as no one stepped up until zane and jaune shared a look smiling at one another
"We'll go team JNPR wants to challenge team ZERO"jaune said in confidence to their surprise but nora brought out maginild hild smiling tapping it in her hands
"Ohhh i wanna do that…..because we got our heavy hitter on our team again"nora said with a smile
Eria coldy laughed at her"really? We have someone able to turn into a giant grimm….you know what. I would like payback for your incisive annoying behavior"she said
They walked down to the training floor as it cleared the place replacing the destroyed floors with new cubes. As it started to take shape with mariana turning the dial simulating the battlefield to be the snwony plains of atlas. Both team stood on opposite ends with their weapons at the ready
As team ZERO where in their formation with onxyia in the back with eria on the right with rogue on the left. With zane in the middle
"Alright if both teams are ready you may all begin""marian said as the board dipspalyed their auras at that moment
Almost immediately nora launched herself forward with her hammer firing off a grenade shell whcih didn't surprise them. As ren launched himself upward using his machine gun grappling hook feature. As pyrrha dashed forward with her shield up with jaune joining her
"Alright i got gingy, wolfie take out pinkie number 2. Twins take down the couple"Zane called out and immeidlaty rogue charged foward with her grenade launcher out straight for pyrrha. While eria skated after jaune with her pistol at the ready.
Before pyrrha knew it rogue fired a grenade shell at her as pyrrha noticed this. Waving her hand around she flicked it off to the sdie sending it direlcty into a wall denating it. While rogue leaped forward with her submachine guns out firing into her as she blocked her strikes with her arm shield as the bullets bounced right off of it.
While jaune raised his shield up blocking some shot from icpick as eria kept skating around him trying to overwhelm him. As she managed to sneka up from behind him hitting him in the back a few times but jaune quickly shifted his feet pressing a button on his sword. It ignited in fire as he readied his shield charigng forward slashing his sword down in her path making her stumble as she quickly recovered doding a punch from him.
But with onxyia she kept firing off a couple shots at ren who was above her. Then quickly hosltering his pistols. He drew his bow out beginning to notch back some arrows raining them down at her at that moment. The wolf quickly sped away from them doding his arrows that pierced the last spot she was out. Pulling out her glaive she spun it deflecting the arrow back at him as she might need to get to the high ground to deal with him.
Which only left the two brutes as nora raised her hammer slamming it down onto zane. But quickly he dodged it with remorse drawn along with one of his revolver. He decided to call one of them mercy his right and the other malice his left. He liked the names he had for them as he fired mercy at her hitting her one. But nora quickly pivoted her feet then used her hammer recoil to launch herself into him
Using the momentum of her attack nora body slammed him into a wall hard from the momentum. This made him grunt knocking his aura down but quickly he pushed her back as she was pushed back a few feet. Then he wanted to try something as he drew out his mothers weapon from what his aunt told him was called nightshade
He spun the scythe around going into his drakon form flapping his wings flying forward into her to fight her head on. Nora smiled ready to brawl just like old times back in beacons swinging her hammer into him
While rogue was busy switching to her single axe she kept swinging at pyrrha right now several times. But she knew the blonde moves better than anyone easily avoiding her strikes every time she tired to hit her. Pyrrha side stepped her initial swing then kneed her in the gut causing her to gasp from the pain. Then she grabbed her by her shirt before starting to spine around with her building up a momentum. As this happened soon enough she launched the blonde hard into a wall as her aura took a large amount of impact from it
Though a small fire spirit emerged from her hand nodding as rogue grinned. Lifting her hand up she fired a stream of fire at pyrrha who narrowly dodged it having to come up with a new strategy right now.
Back with jaune and eria right now the two where busy getting up close and personal. As eria managed to knock jaune sword out of his hand but he blocked her with his shield. She swung her bat in a fluid motion with flare every strike banging against his shield several times at that moment. Though swinging her bat one more time loosened his grip on it sending his shield flying
This left him without a weapon as she tired to srike him again. But he experltly dodged it before grabbing her bat yanking it away from her with all his might. To eria surprise he began to attack her with hand to hand combat right now.
With onxyia she kept avoiding ren arrows until she ducked behind cover for a moment panting. Ren noticing this the dashed forward drawing another arrow as he got to the edge where she was. But to his shock she wasn't their as before he knew it he sense someone. Quickly he dodged a blade as it was onxyia with her glaive out. The wolf spun her glaive beginning to swing and slice at him several time. But it had a small arch of ice following it as she tired to freeze him in place. Ren thought fluidly dodged her strike kicking her in the back making her stumble. But onxyia growled before quickly turning around firing a chi blast into him knocking down his aura by alot along with hers
But with zane and nora he was busy flying around using his drakon form. As nora kept trying to take him down with her grenade launcher. Though her shells narrowly missed him as he dodged one narrowly. Then he found the trigger on the scythe pressing it with a loud shotgun blast going off
Quickly dropping his form he transformed it into a shotgun firing off a few shells into her. Nora aura ate them up but right as he got close as she gave a mighty war cry slamming her hammer into him hard making him land right infront of her.
"Ha! No one can stop me thunder…thighs"nora stopped her small taunt noticing something and so did he. That being the bracelet on his wrist starting to spark before splitting in half falling to the ground. The two shared a look as a splitting headache happened to zane as he fell to his knees in pain
Nora decided to call out to others"guys! Guys! I need help i…i accidentally broke his dumb braclet!"she called out as lucky eria and jaune both heard her going wide eyed. Then jaune rushed to the window waving to the others
"Stop the simulation! Stop it!"jaune said confusing the others right now staring at them
"Why did they stop fighting?"persia asked
"Yeah i have twenty on the kids team…i come in here since juney wanted to say hi to him"miller siad holding his daughter on his lap.
"i don't know….maybe someone got hurt down their"perun suggested.
Deciding to shut it down marian turned the dials ending the sparring session to some of their confusion down below. Ren and onxyia platform slowly moved down as rogue and pyrrha stopped fighting. But as they did a cry of pain could be heard before they noticed what was happening. That being zane going into his monster form halfway done as his joints kept cracking and growing large spikes out of his back. With his hands starting to turn into talons. Everyone up top noticed this
"Ohhhhh crap….uhhh did he do that on purpose or?"mercury asked as ruby scroll rang seeing it was from jaune pressing accept placing him on speaker as he spoke up
"Nora accidentally broke that bracelet to control his semblance! We don't have any of those syringes down here!"jaune shouted on the other end to their shock as stepping right now was ironwood along with oscar and winter. But they heard that part with the general springing into action
"God….carmine give me one of those blasted syringes. Everyone else who can help me hold him down"ironwood ordered as they rushed to the door to get their. But down below the others watched backing up with some feeling deju vu right now
"Ohhhhh this is bad….where going to die aren't we"rogue joked
"This is not funny! This is just like the night in beacon right now"jaune replied though soon enough zane was in his full monster form. As the creature snarled growling at them getting on all fours circling them right now scaring them. Though soon it tried to chomp on nora who narrowly dodged it rolling out of the way. They all got ready to fight him as the creature tried to bite her again
But it stopped with its jaw mid bite as he began to shake for a bit. As just in time the doors opened but as they did luckily someone took control. Because the creature layed down wrapping its tail around it body as the parasite managed to help him control it. Eria sighed in relief
"Oh my god…i forgot the dumb bug can stop him from attacking us. Thank god"eria said in relief. As the others were too staring at the grimm creature with some surprised by this
Elm hesitantly stepped forward"so he won't attack us…because last time he tired to bite my head off"she said
"You he took my arms and leg here"mariana said which made the creature whine at that seeming sad. They didn't notice as june came down with them running over worrying them
"Wait june get–"miller said but she hugged the large grimm like creature near its face. The creature titled it head moving its tial around placing her on its back as it layed his head down blowing steam through its nostril.
"Whoa…so uh this is what you guys meant by monster form. Impressive"ivori commented as yang chuckled walking forward leaning against it with one hand
"Yep. we got ourselves a grimm killer….guess we got grimm on grimm action"yang punned making them groan as the creature snarled at the bad pun. But pana was intrigued walking over humming forcing his jaw open examining him trying not to be giddy but she was. As she examined it the general sighed
'Carmine do you have another one of those bracelet…a sturdier one?"he asked as the women nodded revealing one that was made with stronger materials. But pana soon stopped laughing slightly
"Well…this isn't like my mothers. Hers was a giant bird resembling an owl mixed with a nevermore…interesting."pana commented but other went wide eyed
"Wait….this is apart of his semblance?!"neon shouted in shock as the women nervously laughed letting that slip out
"Oh right uh…yeah…because uh…our family can have this happen to someone every fifty years or so. Along with losing a month off their lifespan"dory paused before blurting something out
"And he lost alot and he might be dead at around sixty seven"she added nerovusly catching themoffguard hearing that right now. As the grimm beast eyes widden at hearing it will die at that age. This made them all pause for a moment staring a ther
"How…how exactly would you know that?"velvet asked scared as the girl revealed her semblance
"I..don't have the family semblance but umm…I can see lifespans. I..it happens randomly and i can't control it. Sorry"dory apoligzed but pana shook her head
"Oh its fine sweetie at least its not in his twenties. Surprising its that low…though no one needs to worry about it. Our oldest ancestor died with it when with they were about fifty before lucifer figure out it drained his lifespan. But remember…don't talk about this"pana warned with them feeling relief right now
Ironwood examined the creature infront of him not even attacking him like before. Amazed that his terrible decision to lock a child up might have been wrong.
"Well this is indeed interesting….though it'll be a last resort. But i'll need the floor to train with oscar here"ironwood said before zane turned into goo molting the creature form off puking up some tar spitting it out as before hand he handed june to her father.
"Ughhh nasty…you guys wanna go to the onsen here?"vesa asked as they agreed hoping it wasn't mixed bathing like the previous ones they've been at
With that we got to see may get a new prothsetic eye in place of her old one. Along with that we also saw that zane will die at a certain age, context I wanted to do this thing where he would probably die at like twenty nine. But that would take time off other storylines I wnated to pursue. Because well someone may meet some family in the next one...a certain bull faunus.
