Chapter 9:Heros Sendoff part 1
Inside the kitchen right now of the gravekeeper compound some of them where still working hard on making a meal for later tonight. They planned to make it now as alot of acolytes where working hard to prepare the grand meal tonight. As assisting them was marrow, cardin, megan, aera, jaci and meg where their as well. But the wolf faunus mother was relived to see her son
"I'm so happy you are here sweetie. Its…nice to finally have you here"jaci said as marrow sighed as he was stirring a pot of stew right now
"Yeah uh mom…great to see you. Along with…uh nice to meet you miss scarltina"marrow said as his tail was sagging to the ground. Meg was rolling some dough right now with a rolling pin for some rolls
Meg ears flopped slightly"Dear you can go and relax. We can do all of this just fine"meg argued but aera stopped her making her move away
"Actually that should also apply to you. Your little girl is greiivng for several people herself…i…i heard from one of them she was the last person on her team."aera softly said making the rabbit faunus go in tears as she tried to play it off. But some tears slipped from her eyes which jaci noticed
"Dear why don't you go into the other room and be with your kids"jaci said but meg sniffed rubbing her eyes
"I'm fine..i..i..god my little girl was so depressed when she thought she lost her love the first time. But this time their are two of them god…the main person who comofrted her was…coco and…shes gone"meg said crying right now making some feel awkward as cardin was taking some food out of a oven before he placed it on a table
Removing his oven mitts he walked over embracing the grown women in his arms as he looked upset
"Don't worry. Were all going to be their for each other…i'm making sure no more of my friends are…taken by them"Cardin said in confidence as meg returned the embrace with megan sighing as she dusted her hands off
"I'm sure you will dear. But…i'm kinda nervous for tonight actually"megan said
"What are you nervous? I mean its a funeral you should be sad not nervous"marrow replied with a bleak tone as his mother looked worried as she placed a hand on his shoulder to comfort him
"Marrow sweetie. Look…you can go be with your girlfriend i can handle this. You should rest before the service later"jaci said but he shook his head
"I'm fine mom….i..uh need to keep my mind off things right now. "Marrow said as he tried to cut some more vegetables for the stew. But someone grabbed his arm which was brann as he was surprised he was here. Immediately brann embraced him
"Come on amin…go take a break man. You gotta grieve"brann said as the wolf faunus tried to argue but saw no more point in arguing. As he was escorted out alongside meg with cardin as aera stared at megan
"Why are you nervous about tonight dear"aera asked politely as megan looked down
"Just uh it'll be the first time in over four hundred years my husband family will reveal themselves. Most of us are…scared that…her servants will hunt us down. She…she really hates us"megan said shaking right now with aera placing a hand on her shoulder with a soft smile
"Because shes apparently scared of you all. Lets finish this up because we shouldn't be dressed up for the service. It;d be a waste"aera said as they cotninued to prepare the food for tonight little get to getter after the service
Meanwhile in the living room all of them were preparing for the service right now. With some of them just finhsing up getting a nice shower in to smell nice for it. But all of them were waiting their in an awkward silence right now
None of them really spoke right now as emerald tapped the armchair rest she was in sighing
"Can we please talk…its very awkward with the silence"emerald said with raven sighing
"Were all mentally preparing for tonight susatari. I…i need to bury my brother along with going to my…d-daughter funeral along with my niece"Raven said teary eyed as their with them was mai who gently rubbed her back
"It'll be okay auntie. Everything will be okay i'm here for you…you were their for me when mom died a second time"mai cried as they were told who her mother was
"Right your um…melissa daughter um…i…s-sorry for um…turning her into a monster. Along with the rest of them"carmine said teary eyed as lisa and cosmo where their as the silver eyed man sighed as he closed his eyes
"It is a shame on what happened to wu. But at least my friend went out on his own terms, she can never use him again"Cosmo wisly said with a few surprised since they saw his eyes figuring out who he was
"Oh your that guy he talked about alot when he took me and ren in"nora said as cosmo eyes widden as he gnelty smiled at the two
"Your the two he talked about in his letters. Its nice to finally meet you…in this dire circumstance"cosmo softly replied as ren closed his eyes
"We are all hurt. But we need to be strong for our friends and the others we lost during that day"ren said as walking in was marrow and the others. Once marrow sat down cera leaned over hugging him as cardin walked in sighing
"So guys you all ready for the big service right now"cardin asked but they spoke up
"Actually um…uh…v-velvet hasn't come down from the shower yet right now."aruna said scared which made meg eyes widden hearing that
"Uhhh what do you mean by she hasn't come back yet?"sun asked confused with a few of them that joined recently. With aruan rubbing the back of her neck
"I mean we all were taking showers and…she wasn't coming out of hers. Which means ummm…"Aruna paused on the words as immediately meg shot up to her feet in complete fear
"Where is she!? Which floor are the showers on?"she asked with yama thinking for a moment
"Second floor down the hall. Come on i am not in the mood to see something sad"yama said rushing upstairs with meg, cardin along with eden following after her. Their was also paddy and elm. They rushed down the hall as they heard water running in one
Immediately meg pounded on the door"velvet! Velvet sweetie is everything okay in their!"meg called out getting no response knocking again
"Velvet!"meg cried out in worry. As they stayed silent with the sound crying being heard on the other side
"Okay…out of my way now!"elm shouted as they. Elm rushed forward as she slammed her shoulder hard into the door breaking the hinges.
"Velvet are you…oh…oh my god"yama said in horror right now as meg walked in going wide eyed on what her daughter was doing. As velvet was sitting in the shower right now in her naked form. Though right now something was staining the shower floor that being blood as velvet was sobbing as she was holding a bloody razor blade in hand
Cardin came in shocked not by her being naked but the sight of blood right now. As elm quickly turned the shower off along with grabbing a towel wrapping the poor girl up as she looked stunned
"Oh my god i..i kid god what the hell are you doing?"Elm asked as velvet didn't answer as she looked away. As rushing in from the loud noise was calida who was looking for something
"Whats with all the screaming right now i.."calida stopped before seeing blood on the shower floor seeing the crying velvet. Immediately she walked over picking her up carrying her
"In the other room now"calida demanded as they did following her. As after some time they quickly put a robe around velvet. But elm was treating her hand right now wrist right now with some bandages as meg was questioning her
"Sweetie..god…i…why would you do that? Why would you cut yourself?"meg asked in tears as velvet looked down ashamed not wanting to talk
"Vel…vel look at us. If you don't speak up were telling everyone else what happened. Then were forcing you into a therapy session later with ghastly"cardin demanded as the rabbit faunus looked up in tears
"I…i…i don't want to lose anyone else i loved"velvet answered sobbing right now which confused them for a moment. But elm was finished treating her wrist as calida knelt infront of her
"Dear…dear this…this isn't right. You shouldn't have done something like this. Its not the right way"calida said but the rabbit kept sobbing
"But…but…everyone i cared about is dead…team BRAS killed my whole team…now their killing the people i love. I don't wanna go through that much heartbreak again"velvet cried and cried making her mother worried sick right now. As eden stared at her own wrist scar before staring at her girlfriend
Eden walked over before gently taking her into an embrace in tears right now
"Vel…god i..listen what you did isn't right. I can speak from experience god…i tried to off myself about three months in that screwed up lab i was in"eden said making them listen as the bear faunus rubbed the back of her head
"I thought i could escape from the pain of doing those test and from that hell. But when me and miyuki did it i…i thought about one person. My little sister at the time they took her away from me before she was turned into a grimm hybrid"eden begun as they listened
Eden sniffed hugging her tight"but she came back that night and i…i was ready to do it. But…then my little sister would be all alone. I…k-know your hurt right now. I am too but we…we need to be strong for them. Please don't resort to this i…m-maybe talking with diamona will do you some good okay. All of us need to be strong for them…okay"Eden said as the two held it for a bit as velvet cried into her shoulder for five minutes before it passed as she looked down ashamed
"I'm sorry for being stupid"velvet meekly said but her mother hugged her tight
"It'll be okay sweetie i…we can visit your teammates graves tomorrow. But before hand your getting a session in with diamona okay"meg begged as velvet nodded as caldia walked her to another room to change. Cardin sighed covering his face
"I didnt take into account some of us would do that. But her…god"cardin said in shock
"Shes hurt. Alot of you are…look right now i'm shocked that kid did that. But you said you have a therapist here right?"elm asked as meg nodded
"Do you think everyone should maybe visit her tomorrow"meg asked as she nodded
"Its a smart idea idea. We had these group sessions back in atlas for comrades we lost…look just have someone keep an eye on her. Along with anyone else you think might do that. "Elm said to paddy who nodded
"I'll let…cho know what happened. He'll keep his mouth shut but…lets try to look to the positives tonight okay"paddy said as they all agreed on that. After some time velvet got out ready but her mother stuck close to her the entire time. As they all headed down stairs to join the others for the funeral right now
They were escorted into the city to join them for the funeral for the people that brought them togehter. But the entire four kingdom where all now gathered in the center of town all of them holding candles or keeping their peace right now. But their was one spot left open for some of them that was reserved. While waiting for them right now was glynda, thedore, oscar ad ironwood. As glynda softly smiled at them
"You all made it. Were all preparing for the funeral i'm…planning on speaking on their words when the pastor is done."Glynda said
"We'd appreciate it alot dear. Lets get this over with because i'd like to get a drink"Declan replied as tehy all soon got in position with a pastor getting told to start as he cleared his throat on the podium before them. As their was something covered behind him
"Everyone please be quiet. I was tasked today to give a small cermone for several brave souls that we had lost during the fall of the kingdom of atlas. All of them who tragically periehsed during the evacuation of the mighty kingdom. For now we all are here from vale, mistral, atlas and vacuo to honor those that we lost during that day. We are here to pay our respects to all the poor souls we lost that day. But we are also here to pay respects to a set of particular people. They are the ruby rose, weiss schnee, blake belladonna and yang xiaolong all apart of team RWBY. while we also see off some surprising names you may know. The first being jaune arc leader of team JNPR, lazuli blackburn, neoplotian, adam tarrus the former faunus terroist. But we also see the passing of team ZERO, zane graves, eria hayley, rogue hayley, onxyia blair. All of them didn't die of sickness. No what happened to them was something that any huntsman and huntress would do in our time of need. I would like miss goodwitch speak some words on their behalf"the pastor said stepping to the side as glynda stepped onto the stage
It was pure silence for a moment as glynda exhaled staring at all the citizen of their four kingdoms as she soften her gaze
"You all have heard and saw what was was broadcast to everyone in remnant. All of you saw the message of two souls that wanted to bring us all here for one thing. To unite humanity against one common foe. That foe was the same one that took these kinds souls away from us. I was a teacher for most of them all except for tarrus. But from my experience all of them where prime material for what it meant to be a huntsman and huntresses. They all have layed their lives down so we could live today"glynda cotninued clearing her throat as she sighed
""I know that we all are upset on the passing of these brave souls right now. But we must not let desapri consume us. We need to be strong for them, they made it all possible for us to be together today. We will honor those we lost by continuing the fight against that witch and her forces. But…i…each of them were never asked to do this….they wanted to do it because they wanted to save their world. Their homes, their friends, familys."glynda cotninued as she turned to the tarp
"We had commissioned this to honor those that gave their lives for the kingdom of atlas. Once revealed we ask you all to have a moment to silently pray"glynda said as some people remove the tarp to reveal something. That being stone slab it seems, but on the slab where the brave souls that peirhsed so they could all be here

"Everyone your free to leave this concludes our service. If you would like to pay your respects to their families. Do it on your own time they are grieving"glynda ordered as the crowd started to die down as desdemona with the other apporached the sight. As the women pulled out a decorative white skull with blue lines along with several other one sharing the colors of their fallen gifted
The old women struggled to set hers down as the rest managed to do it. But as desdemona was about to fall over trying to do this. Taking it from her was nadia who placed the skull down infront of the momentum. As someone light each of them with a match
"Thank you dear"desdemona said as the tiger nodded. As they waited for the crowd to clear out some disobeyed glynda instructions. As some of them gave the grieving familes flowers with some wishing them the best right now. Alot of the business in vacuo gave them their cards saying they could use their services
As they all cleared out soon enough ironwood walked over to them with a devastated look as he sighed.
"I'm sorry for all of your loss. I hope for the best right now…are you holding a service afterwards"ironwood asked
"We are james. Would you like to join us…we invited all the spartans since they knew my nephew"pana asked as he softly nodded.
"Then lets go before someone offers to market our kids off as plushies"calida growled but as the crowd was still large they waited. But a scumbag came forward as it was issac harl with his son by his side. Along with the solomons and the tremaine sisters which whitley noticed
"no..no…no..no! Get away from us right now! I am not dealing with you….scum!"whitley shouted in rage as some looked at them confused with isscar nerouvsly laughing
"Come now can't we pay respects to our savior"issac asked but mike stepped forward shoving him back
"Your here for something harl. Oh hey look its my bitch sister in law and brother, how you been merlin"mike growled as winfired scoffed fanning herself with tears on her face

"Why you–"he was about to strike her but ironwood stepped forward making him freeze
"I suggest you leave now solomon and harl. Your not on my good side…we are having a funeral"ironwood warned but issac nervously stepped forward
"Come now james we want to help honor them. We were thinking of doing a stage play for them in their memory. We might need your help to create it and–"issac was stopped as kraven stepped forward wrapping him in a chokehold. The man began to gasp for air but swiftly kraven knocked him out glaring at them
"Leave now because this is willow daughter funeral. She is greiving and you have the gull to do this"kraven warned
"Yeah also….grnadpa that gun assault me. He stuck his hand down my shirt"meri said pointing at jasper who flinched. With slade staring him down along with desdemona who growled as she did something. The women began to grow in size right now as her bones started to crack as she cried in pain catching their attention
"Mom! I…i…no you can't do that your body can.."mars was stopped as she growled at him. This made him back up as the old women started to grow in size as her arms became replace by large avian wings. Along with her feet now resembling claws. But she was now in her archangel form snarling at them making a strange chirping noise
This scared them as her throat made a cracking motion"i rarely use this…but leave now or i'll devour you. Then spit you out and watch you suffer. "Desdemona said in a distroted voice before they started to run away from her in fear. As the crowd looked stunned as the other stared at the women who wings fodled inward
"Oh my god…the old lady turned into a giant bird!"neon shouted in shock as some laughed at her for a moment
"Dude i…oh that looked uncomfortable. Are you good"mai asked as the women cracked her neck hooting for a moment
"I am fine…i have plenty of life left. But step back please"Desdemona said as they all did as she deactivated it molting into goo. As from the pile desdemona picked herself up but was coughing and wheezing hard. With williwo rushing over helping her up
"Dear are you okay?"williow asked as desdemona kept coughing and wheezing before spitting up blood which concerned them
"Oh no…your coughing up blood lets take you to a hospital"may said with worry but slade walked over picking his wife up princess style
"My wife fine…guess you got what two more years with another three months dear"slade asked as the old women nodded before passing out sleeping in his arms.
"Lets go celebrate…seems they pissed mother off enough to use her archangel form. The crowd now got a good look"lilith said as they all agreed to go and spend some time together to mourn for their loved ones they lost
An hour later the gravekeepr compound everyone was their from the brnawhen tribe mostly along with the spartans. As the hall was big enough for most with the festiives being outside but they were all doing one thing honoring those that died. Weather that be praying for the familes or in some cases living their best life.
Because some of the spartans did what they considered honroing their comrades. That was drinking in their honor with some squaring off with the branwhen tribe for a good old tussle. Their was a large table filled with food as they had some acolytes cook their meals but being a paranoid person. Was gasper who was helping prepare the food and make sure no one poisons it
As all of them were doing their own thing though the main group had a special table reserved. Their was a large table that had pictures of the people they lost along with the bouquets of flowers they had. But at one table some of the mothers were talking with a few of the kids close by
"Your telling me that women said she rather have her kid aborted. Now she comes back and pretends they exist now"susan asked in disgust
"I know right. That sister in law of mine god i hate her so much"sadie replied with a drink in hand as with her aurora, robyn, nadia, sienna, willow, lilith, pana, kali, meg. They were all enjoying each other company but robyn was busy gushing over sorrel right now
"Awww your a cute whittle faunus aren't you"robyn cooed as sorrel was drooling a little as it landed in her mouth. Robyn gagged from that
"Blegh he drooled in my mouth…i can taste it…oh god"robyn added as they laughed at her for a moment. Sienna took her son away holding him close whipping his mouth with a napkin
"Well you swapped spit with one cat here."sienna teased making nadia blush as her tail swayed around like crazy now
"God don't start on the teasing. My sister will wanna do it"lilith warnd but pana hummed for a moment
"Oh i'm sure the spartans have that covered. But i do hope mother is okay"pana said as she looked over. Desdemona was talking with maria, isis mary and nina on old lady things. As kali sighed seeing that
"She'll be fine dear. I'm just ohhh they make me so mad they did that during my babies funeral"kali said as katherine sighed joining them
"Your not the only one. Although…still you all didn't need to do this for us"katherine said
"Nonsense we met briefly. But our family wouldn't be out of hiding without your children help. Miss rose message along with my nephew moved our council which is hard to do. Little sister would be smiling if she saw this"lilith said messing with her obsidian ring as willow placed a hand on her shoulder
"It'll be fine dear. Although….are you okay aurora"williow asked making aurora flinch as she rubbed her arm for a moment
"Yes you've been quiet for a long time. Is something wrong dear"kali asked as the women heisated for a moment as she sighed
"Nothing just worried for my daughter is all. Just…i hope she can handle her grief alright. She was quite rude to your daugther before they left for the plan"aurora said as willow sighed looking down for a moment
"She'll be fine dear. Tell you what i think i have an idea"williow said getting them intrigued
"Oh i'm invested now…tell me"pana asked sweetly as willow smiled for a moment
"Dear i met your husband around here yesterday. Verde was it"williow ask sienna who nodded
"He is…let guess your planning something dear"sienna asked as she smiled
"Well your daughter has a love for medicine, so does my son and yours katherine. We could have them assist in treating those who are hurt after their week long break. They can gain expeinrce along with keeping themselves occupied."williow said as they thought about it for a moment as it sounded wonderful
"Thats a wonderful idea. Though your eldest keeps giving commander shaw some stares right now i noticed"meg pointed out as across the way winter was drinking with some others. But the mothers noticed that she kept staring at decker who was laughing and drinking with some soilder friends. Willow smiled at that
"I think my daughter fancys the man. Hmmm she did help me and my new love get back together"williow said as kali gasped slightly
"You and that kraven fellow….well he seems alot better than your last husband"kali said as kraven was in the middle of tumbling around with fenix right now. As the two were shirtless in a circle with several tribe members chanting for them with the soldiers joining in. as katherine frowned
"God hes like bastet and mine husband. Is that a curse? Women who are into medicine marry bare knuckles brawling?"katherine asked if she was crazy
"Mhmmm no besides…you wanna help your eldest maybe seek some comfort with the man"pana cooed as willow thought for a moment
"Maybe. But i need to start training wren soon before he blows up a wall or something."williow said as wren sat on the ground messing with a toy truck right now. As he stared up staring at her mother
"Momma are you talking about the pretty circles"wren cutely asked as she chuckled picking him up placing him on her lap
"Thats right sweetie. We gotta prepare you for that, your brother and sister will help you with that. "Williow said sweetly as he hugged her as the women smiled. Though sadia messed with her wedding ring before staring at nadia
"Nadia dear…you know how my husband brother abandoned his children correct"sadia asked which confused her
"Um uh yeah why? They piss me off how their trying to use the kids death for their status"nadia replied as the women wanted to ask her opinion on something
"Well i know they won't sign it now. But…me and mike thought about it back in atlas. We…we want to take in razma and cooper like our own two children. Adopt them"said said to their surprise as they figured out what this was right now
"You want to ask her help on how to show them love like your own children"meg asked
"Sort of. I love them like my own since we took cooper in…i just…i don't think my son will like it"sadia said but walking close by was his son who laughed
"What? Coop and raz as my sibling…meh sure be pretty sweet. I hated being an only child"criss said walking by with some others. As this made the women stunned for a moment as she sighed into a smile. As the tiger began to give her advice on how to break it to the two
Elsewhere with some of the others more improtnalty a few of the atlas, havan, beacon and shade students. Alot of them were talking with each other but one specific group was talking with each other. That being leah, neon, persia,bombay, bashira, sun, nolan. Along with scarlet, may and razma. But one person was making fun of someone still that being aruna laughing at may who was red face
"I still can't believe this chick along with my cousin had a big old cuddle session"Aruna said laughing red face with neon laughing at that still
"Man you should have seen her. Raz here was smiling like she won a trophy"neon joked
"But i did…kinda heavy an–"razma was stopped as scarlet covered her mouth. But he felt something wet as she licked it as he removed his hand wiping it on his shirt
"Disgusting"scarlet said in disgust right now
"That what she does. God…i could hear the teasing from here right now."leah said like she could sense it. As suddenly someone pinched may on the hips making her go eep. Looking behind her it was maris grinning at her
"Man i can't believe someone here did that. You better pray your not prengant"maris warned making them wonder that
"Ohhhh thats not worrying at all. Meh me and taupe did it so what"sun casually said drinking his drink as nolan stared at him
"Dude don't say that or your aunt will tease your girlfrined"nolan said but he didn't seem to care. Though sauntering over was dawn who seemed much bigger in her belly as she whined curling up by their feet for some reason
"Whats up with the dog?"bashira asked as they really don't know
"We don't know i guess she upset…shes gotten a little chunky lately"razma said rubbing the grimm head as she whined before snuggling up by her feet. As gobi peeked up from leah shoulder making a small noise getting their attention
"Awww whos this little guy"bombay said scratching his head gently
"This is gobi he um…he was uh our leader pet. She uh…didn't make it out. That creepy goliath knight killed her."leah answered as it got akward for a moment but nolan offered a hand as she took it
"You aint the only one here who lost teammates girly. Me and my best friend here lost our buddies roy and brawnz. I can't believe that mutt came back still"nolan said as bombay shook at the mention of that as bashira placed a hand on her shoulder to calm her down
"Hey don't talk about him around here. Scumbag gives her panic attacks"bashira warned as he put his hands up
"My bad forgot though…i'm still finding him being here concerning"nolan said gesturing over to adder right now. As the snake faunus was being awkward right now with some people talking to him mainly being mercury and carmen right now to their surprise.
"Those two seem to be close to him"scarlet commented
"Well appernelty he used to work for her. He didn't know since they made him believe they killed cinder. But her…no clue on the why"bombay replied calming down as neon hummed for a moment
"Well weiss did always say he didn't want any of this. Also he friends with…those guys"neon said pointing at the portraits in the hall. As their was a portrait of yin and yan together with each other posing for their portrait holding their weapons produly
"Man thier are alot of potriats in here. Who painted them"razma asked maris who hummed
"Right we had someone commission these bad boys for each of the archangels. Lets see the big cheese here is…him"maris said pointing at the head table. As it had a portrait of lucifer graves in his suit of armor with a pair of greatswords in hand easily holding them one handed.
"Whoa…i'm surprised to see all this stuff but…you think um..my boyfriend will get one"may asked as close by criss was joining them along with loki who blurted something out
"Oh we already had the painting commissioned it should be done today."loki suddenly said as he covered his mouth as close by his big sister hectate grabbed him by the ear tugging on it
"Great job numb nuts they know about it now. Their gonna blab to their friends about it"hectate said but they weren;t
"We aren't gonna do that. Besides my buddy here just relaxing you seem to hectate"sun replied as she released loki who held his ear rubbing it
"Well later i'm gonna probably cry going to sleep. But hey i need some liquor in my system"hectate replied with a drink in hand as razma reached for one on a nearby table but criss smacked her hand away
"Hey i'm old enough to drink"razma whined
"You are not drinking cousin bad idea since your grieving. Besides…right now i'm getting sick of the half naked guys here wrestling with each other"criss said as neon looked over blushing as her tail flopped to the ground
"Oh my god…whos mom is that squaring off with tort"neon asked as they looked over mortified right now. As in a navy blue lacy bra right now showing off her toned stomach and body was verona. The bat faunus and mariana where locked in a power struggle as tort wore a white lacy bra. As the teens all looked embarrassed
"Come on can these guys not"bashira said as loki stared for a moment but felt combat glaring at him as she narrowed her eyes
"Sorry cat tail i um…dang it. Am i gonna be in trouble"loki asked his girlfriend who flicked him on the forehead
"You better treat me somewhere nice this week. Besides…this is gonna sound rude but that monument sucks."bombay said as some paused for a moment as they can actually agree on that
"I know right. No offense but…a slab of rock? They could do better than that"persia agreed
"True but that type of thing takes time and that something we don't have."nolan replied
"Yeah but come on a mural would be awesome to have. Heck maybe of each of the friends we lost"sun replied as they talked although that made leah eyes widden upon hearing of the suggestion right now. The artist owed some of them for how she treated them as she had a grand idea
"Wait…we can do that!"leah shouted getting their attention right now
"What are you talking about right now gogh?"criss asked as she stood up quickly leaving them but after five minutes she came back. She had a sketchbook in hand as she dropped a bag of colored pencils and other drawing supplies by her side
"I think i'm gonna make good on my promise to make vesa a mural. I'm gonna ask the headmaster tomorrow if hes fine with me doing something like that for everyone. They deserve more than a hunk of rock"leah said as she began to sketch up plans as they stared at her as razma began to get teary eyed sniffing
"You…gogh your making me cry"Razma said whipping her tears as aruna giggled
"Thats very sweet of you to do that. But you should find somewhere quiet to do it"aruna stated
"Nah i'm good i can focus with the noise. Though let me work i'm drawing up plans"leah said as she wanted to honor the people they lost during the fall of atlas. As they began to have a party for the night.
With that this concludes another chapter as we saw velvet do something terrible. This is a serious topic and if you see anyone that is struggling and turning to this, have them seek help. Though it seems leah is planing to do a mural for those they lost. This ends part 1
