Chapter 56:Wicked Mother
An hour early in the day with blake and company they were stalking out the ship right now mainly because buckley and his crew where talking to someone. Mainly being beatrix and some of those hired goons of hers along with a few of the girls from the academy. Though as they watched from a distance they were waiting for the right chance to go in.
While they had a bite to eat for the time being from a small stand close by mainly belonging to shawn. As most of the faunus were given notice by the guards to stay in their homes but they filled the man in whats was going on.
"So you lot telling me that your baby sister? My little girl best friend when they were kids girlfriend who she brought to my place"shawn begun as someone else was with him a women
Who was close to his age as she had tan skin along with having a slight pudgy build but was actually very slender for her size. She was a little taller than him as she had light black eyes with dark green hair cut short in a pixie cut. Along with wearing a simple tan skirt with a orange t-shirt to match it wearing some sandals.
Though her faunus traits wasn't any actually because she was actually human.
The women growled at the next part"that some psycho who was her mother apperently abaodned her. And now is trying to force her to come back after she almost died?!"she said nearly screaming but her husband calmed her nerves
"Now now becca we can't be showing so much emotions. We need to let our daughters friend here be incognito. I rather not have an innocent girl be dragged into something she doesn't want"shawn said looking down a little as his wife sighed hugging him close
"I know dear but i…just miss our little girl…it pains me here that some parent. Who appernelty abused her own child would come back trying to claim them like some sort of property"becca cried a little as ilia looked away sighing rubbing her wrist for a moment
Mainly she glanced at the very old razor scars on her wrist because she was at a very low point in her life at one point. Mainly for what happened after she was taken into foster care system and ended up with some family in atlas for a while.
While with that family they treated her like their daughter for a bit of time. While the agency was revieeiwng them to make sure they were loving parents to take care of her. They had a boy younger than her along with a girl who was her age as well. But then after they approved of her being in their family things started to change at that point.
They would just use her for daily chores around the house like a housemaid even though she was just a kid. It pained her to go through that because that little brother she was suppose to call treated her like som pet. Forcing her to do things she didn't like one time he even cut out a piece of her hair. While that girl was the worst told her shes her property cause her parents bought her for her to use. Which sicken her at that age.
Everytime she refused to follow her dumb orders she got physical and she coudln't fight back. Because if she did that so called dad of hers would beat her until she learned her so called lesson. While the mother just used her for cleaning until one day she got curious about why they even adopted her. Because they left her by herself after four years of that torment as she actually had time to herself. But digging around they were using her for checks they got from the organziation needed for her.
Finally on that day she got sick of it before just taking her things and walking over to a neighbor they had. She lucky that women helped save her from a life of torture as the parents were soon arrested. While the two kids got put into foster care themselves with the girl whining and crying that she wanted he property back which was her. She clocked her in the face that day but at one point she did try to cut herself to end it.
But thought of her parents and eventually she joined the fang. Made some friends being blake and onxyia with ashaka who was her love. She sighed looking at the two.
"I'm…i'm so sorry"ilai suddenly said peeking their attention
"What are you talking about over here?"sun asked confused as blake soften her gaze for a moment as ilia held her head
"I'm so sorry that i didn't go with them. I…i thought they would make it out of the city before something bad happened. But then when yuma came back getting more defectors out he told me how their planning to stay in the city to help people. I came here as quick as i could stowing away on some cargo ships."ilia started messing with her sleeve for a moment fighting the tears but some formed
"But i…i such an idiot…i could have asked some of them to come with me just incase. But…no…aka…xander…trifa…and even her wanted to stay. They wanted to try and fix their mistakes."ilia continued before hugging herself
"I should have convinced her to come…i'm so–"she was stopped as becca hugged the poor girl close at that moment placing a hand on the back of her head gently rubbing it. As she pulled her face into her shoulder
"Dear…i don't blame you for my little girl dying. I blame that psycho spider faunus….he was the one who took her from me. But…did she actually try to do some good?"becca asked as ilia layed her head on her shoulder gently nodding
Becca smiled a little hearing that"then at least she did something good for our world before she passed. I..i know it hurts to hear people are gone…but…i…i know shes smiling down on us right now watching over us"she said as ilia shook a little hearing those words crying a little as they sat in silence as shawn scratched his chin
"Or cracking a bunch of f bombs and flipping us off"he bleuntly said as they paused for a moment as blake slightly laughed at that as ilia was stopping crying for a moment. Becca frowned walking over taking her sandal smacking her husband behind his head
'Maybe thats were she gets her harsh language from. We were having a moment"becca scolded as he rubbed his head. Though eventually buckley came to them as he sat down
"Well let me guess their kicking you off your own ship captain"yahto asked as he sighed
"Percisly. Those mercs are telling us their waiting for something and their commendering my ship. Because they don't want us to leave without an important guest. "Buckley answered to their annoyance for a moment
"Thats just great how the heck are we even going to get inside now? They probably got those creepy girl scouts guarding entrances to the ship. Now what?"sun asked as blake cupped her chin examining the layout of the ship for a moment. As she did she could tell their are ways into the place but could tell their are alot of those mercs wandering the ships deck with two of those girls guarding the main entrance. If what junior said about them being assassin is true they may be tough to deal with.
Though as she thought for a moment she glanced toward akata for a moment as the women noticed it.
"Why are you staring at me kid?"akata asked as the cat grinned
"You can change into anything like any person, faunus…animal?'blake asked as they got what she was doing immeidialty. Before aruna cupped her chin snapping her fingers
"Oh you can turn into like a bug or something sneak into wherever their room is. Take a picture of them or snatch them as evidence. And maybe talk to sombra since well i haven't seen anyone resembling her leave that ship at all."aruna commented as akata nodded standing up stretching and rolled her shoulders out for a moment
"If i'm going to do it i'm going to have to know which room she in. makes finding the intel alot easier"akata said as buckley nodded going through his memory for a moment
"She would be in the lxuery room we have on the third floor deck. She rented the other four deluxe suits that are their. Possible for all her girls to in watching distance. "Buckley answered as she nodded before she closed her eyes activating her semblance before slapping a tailmon on her chest.
Then in a white puff of snow as they adjusted their eyes they soon looked upon a snow finch standignt heri chirping at them as aruna chuckled.
"Man you and zoey must get into some wild shenanigans while using your semblance"aruna said placing a figner near her but she nipped at her figner
"Gah! Dumb bird"aruna said as the bird tweeted like it was laughing before flying off toward the ship that was close by. She flapped with her little wings with all her mgith as she looked for anywhere where she could get into on the third floor. As she did something caught her eye an open window as she flew over by it peeking inside of it.
As she glanced inside to a vry lvasnious looking room along with their being very stilzied furniture in the room. Along with a tv that was very large maybe 48 inches wide, with a dressers their as well. Their was even a bar in the place as everything was neat and tidy in the room. Switching back to her human form she peeked outside where the floor was
Carefully she vaulted over the window going into the room"okay now lets see what you've been hiding from us you dusty hag"she said beginning to look around the place for a bit until eyeing a nearby desk close by that had a briefcase along with several folders on the table that were all tan
"Hello what do we have here?she thought as she opened one file to chekc it out and see if their was anything useful. But it seemed to be a student profiel on the students in the academy as she noticed the one of the profiles had a red star on the profiel. It was the girl by the name of mavis whicnehster which made her wonder why she had a star on her name.
She looked over the files for a bit and even found out that another four had the same one including sombra which made six in total. Which was strange as she took a picture of each of their files for a connection. Though she noticed how most of the girls were either from wealthy gamiles but what was the connection between them. Was it because of their wealthy families so went over the one with red stars again
Then she found out each of them had a certain set of skills on their profiles. After taking the picture she carefully placed them back but eyed a recorder for a moment picking it up playing it as it placed the previous night dinner conversation.
"Why would she be recording last night dinner conversation…."she thought before eyeing a couple picture seeing that it was pictures of the island. Their was one of the guards and another of the training field in the foreground. But some stuck out mainly being one of blake along with kali their with jazmine. Their was another with onxyia with a big red circle over her face and another being something related to the grimm knight
Because she read it briefly seeing a bounty for grimm knights along with that with a name for a possible target. A certain uras faunus as soon enough her ears flicked hering the door knob to the room start to turn
She had to act fast as the quickly dove out the window onto the deck floor but then turned into a finch again in a white snow mist. Then she flew off as someone entered the room mainly being mavis to get something that was asked from beatrix
She walked inside though she noticed something a few tufes of white hair as she picked it up. Where did this white hair come from it might have been from the headmsitress but she doens't have white hair.
Though flying back over sighing in relief was akata who returned to the others as she returned to human form falling on the ground panting a little.
"So any clues you find over their?"yahto aksed
"Yeah well the others might need to hear what i found because we might have a problem now"akata said which made them looked concern
"What do you mean by that? How bad can it be?"ilia asked as akata pulled her scroll out before showing the pictures she took of the people they had targeted. Along with one big red circle being over onxyia face while another read possible target being a certain grimm faunus
"Oh no…oh no we played into their hands. Their going after the others we need to warn them now"aruna said as she grabbed her scroll out before it rang for a moment until got someone to answer
"Thank god jaz you guys good over their because it getting late and well-"she was stopped
"No we are not good! Because those psychos just came to mari places and knocked out the guards. Along with that we found the others knocked out with onxyia on the floor. And piper is missing from her room!"she shouted on the other end as they all eyed each other cursing sieltnly in unison
"Crap we gotta get back to the house. We need to get the others because we might need to storm your ship captain"sun said as buckley huffed crossing his arms
"I'll grab my crew. Because for starters that my ship and those bilge rats will pay for messing with it. I'll meet you at the house after i rounded them up"buckely said as they nodded running off to do that hoping they get to the others on time right now.
Although at the house right now in the living room mainly was ghira who was at the head of the table. Along with sienna by his side and with kali their along with sienna their holding sorrel in her arms very close. With even verde their as standing close by on guard was declan and saber with some of the royal guard.
Their was also nadia who was fuming right now because carmel had a very wide grin on her face the entire time like she was winning something. With colt doing his best to keep her calm with mari helping as well. With junior their shooting some glares at the women as lisa had her arms a faunus lawyer carmel hired on the file was their reading documents to them
"Sir i know we've been here for a good five hours now. But you need to understand that miss vanilla is in the right to claim her daughter. Because she is her biologically mother and she did not sign any paperwork to give whoever this mysterious father of hers guardianship of her"the lawyer stated as nadia growled a little
"Are you kidding me? Do i seriously need to show you the adoption papers for her and siblings!"she shouted slamming the adoption paper down again that showed neo with her standard ifnroamtion thats been updated over the years. Along with showing vances and lazuli along with zoey but hide one of them mainly her sons.
The lawyer sighed reading quickly through it against adjusting his glasses eying the women down"ma'am these are real documentation. But i have to say this again none of these are under the name of trivia vanilla. Just one neapolitan who isn't her"he said yet again as carmel grinned
"Well i'm sure we don't need to keep sitting here at each other throats. Just hand my daughter over and i'll leave. My husband has missed her very dearly"she said sweetly but they all knew it was an act
"Shut the hell up carmel. I know who you are and rumor is you already adopted another daughter years ago"junior stated
Carmel sighed crossing her arms under her bust"i adopted her after the tragic loss of my other daughter. Which was probably kidnapped by this so called friend of yours. Who extalcty is this adoptive father of hers…hmm?"she asked with a condifnece and smug look
The tiger was about to speak but stopped because her father was a crook which might just make her look very bad. Shes had ties with torwchiwch for years and if she says she knows him it might just put her on a list. Which in turn gets her arrested maybe.
Sitting back down the women growled clenching her fist tight fighting the urge to shock the women in the jaw. Worried they might do something to sombra and those others girl.
Ghira narrowed his gaze keeping his stoic look"ma'am you may have the necessary paper work to claim miss poli-"he was stopped
"Triva her name is trivia vanilla. Get that through your thick skull you flighty little faunus pest"triva said calmly as kali glared directly at the women standing up straight
"Don';t you talk to my husband like that you little mother–"She was stopped as sienna covered her mouth as the women ears straighten out. But kali words were muffled as she obviously was cursing her out.
Verde tapped his glasses for a moment"miss i already did a blood test on both of you early. And granted the results do link you as her blood parent"he said as she stood up before he could finish offering a hand
"Good because if that settled i'll be leaving now. Kidnly return my daugther to me or things will get much worse. I'll even have to get huntsman invovled here…because i'm very curious why a bunch of faunus are training with weapons."she said before leaning forward with a confident look
"You all woudln't happen to be supporting the white fang would you? I mean those terrorist have already destoryed one of the many kingdoms in vale. Along with those awful thirteen knights of grimm running around. "Carmel begun her small little tangy as she paced around as her heels clacked on the ground for a bit as they eyed her down. The women eyed one thing catching her attention the group photo at beacon eyeing some faces their grinning evily as she faced away from them
"Thank god two of them dead right now surprising to see someone own daughter associate themselves with some….mutate"she continued as nadia clenched her fist in rage gritting her teeth right now as declan glared
'Hey do me a dam favor lady. Keep my daughter name out of your mouth or else. Along with ghira because i don't care if your women. "Declan said before smacking his fist together cracking his knuckles loudly then lastly his neck growling.
"I''ll punch you in your dam jaw till you can't talk anymore"he added as the women wasn't phazed rolling her eyes setting it down before reutnring to the lawyer. As the man sighed before grabbing out a warrant for arrest pushing it foward
"This is just a example but if you don't turn her over soon. Huntsman will be called to investigate the island sir. I'm sorry"the lawyer said as ghira kept his stoic look as the clocked tick away for a bit. Until suddenly bursting from the front door was blake as she regroup with the others at the house.
"Blake what are you–"verde was stopped as some of the guards carried in nix who was groaning holding her side right now. Along with zoey who head was wrapped up stained crimson red along with a couple other guards. Nadia looked comply shocked
"What happened to my daughter?"nadia asked with worry as sun helped lay zoey down with akakta help. But mari noticed someone missing from the group.
"Wait…where…wheres my niece?"mari asked but right now carmel attention was drawn to neo who glared at her as the womens stepped forward offering a hand
"Come along now sweetie your going home now. Please get away from that flithy.."She was stopped as jazmine shvoed her back growling before pulling her weapons out pointing direclty at her head
"Fuck you lady! Where did you and those freaky cult preppy girls take piper?! Because you psycho just kidnapped a little girl!"jazmine shouted to their shock as several of them had the advantage on carmel who looked rather annoyed as ghira stood up glaring
"Guards arrest her. Along with that arrest beatrix and her group their going through questioning."he ordered as the guards stepped forward but carmel laughed at the group for a moment confusing them before going into full blown laughter like someone who crazy.
"Why the heck are you laughing lady?sun asked bringing his staff out eyeing her down as carmel smirked walking around for a moment
"Well…lets just say our plan is going very smoothly. But i suggest you put those weapons down or that little freak will be well…swimming with the fishes"carmel said evily before pulling out her scroll as it played a live video feed. It came to life showing piper bounded up and gagged kicking hanging off the edge of a ship as holding her was mavis as the camera was shown down into the ocean. As mari went wide eyed in rage eyeing the women down in complete rage growling
"You fucking psycho! Give me back my niece because my sister is not losing her only other daughter that is left!"mari demand as she put the scroll away wagging her figner
"I don't think so because heres the deal. If i don't come back to the ship in the next ten minutes that little freak will go swimming with the fishys. Concrete blocks make great paperweights for swimming. Because heres the thing"she said but the lawyer got involved taking their side now.
"Miss vanilla! Kidnapping someone is against the law you have no room to negotiate here i–"he was stoped in a swift motion carmel wrapped her hands around his neck then snapped it as he fell dead to the ground.
This startled them as lisa screamed a little before passing out on the spot from the sight as colt caught her with a shock look himself. Aruna gagged turning around puking onto the ground from the sight as carmel kicked the man bodie a little.
Clearing her throat to continue"as i was saying all i ask for is that my daughter here comes to the ship by ten tonight. Its oh…."she said eyeing the nearby grandfather clock nodding.
"Its about close to nine which means you have an hour. I want my little girl by that time and i'll release the little freak to you. And buckley you'll take us back to shore and if you try anything. I'm also holding your other passenger hostage on the ship. Beatrix servants left a very explsovie surprise for them"she said before walking toward the door as the guards were about to stop them but ghria put a hand up telling them to let her pass as they did
Carmel got to the door at that moment turning looking directly at neo who glared at her"i'll be seeing you later deary. Pack your bags"she said before closing the door as they process all of this for a moment. The guards began to carry the poor man who got involved away as they all sat in complete silence for a moment
While mari began to cry hugging herself right now very scared for her only niece that left. As nadia eeys began to twitch as she roared in rage throwing a glass at a wall shattering it into piece.
"That dam psycho! She is so irngoant that she is willing to hold people hostage and threatened to kill a little girl. Why because she adbaoend her own daughter!"she shouted in rage fuming as this caused sorrel to become a little fussy at that moemnt beginnign to cry as sienna shuehd him a little
"Calm down sweetie…its alright shhh just calm down"sienna shushed as lisa finally got up waving her hand seeing this sighing walking over taking him rocking him gently in her arms for a moment that seemed to calm him down
"I'll take him dear..but what are we going to do?"she asked with worry as the other decided to tell them what they found.
"For starters we found something very shocking in that women room. We can come with a plan after we tell you"yahto stated
"What exactly did you find in their because i may need to mobilze the guards"ghira said as akata pulled her scroll out before showing the pcitures to the group.
"I did some digging in her little room found a briefcase cotnaing alot of profiles on the girls that are with them. But heres the thing six of them had red stars near their pictures for some reason. Mainly that sombra girl and that mavis girl"she said as they eyed the pcitured for a moment
"Wait…that girl is actually cardin sister? Dude i hate for him to be here right now seeing that"sun said
Though across the ocean right now sitting in the cargo ship right now cardin nose began to itch for a moment before he sneezed rubbing it for a moment.
"Bless you…you got allergies or something"Xander asked
"No…i feel like someone talking about me right now"cardin replied having a very eerie feeling someone was talking about him behind his back right now for some reason. Back with the others they continued
"Okay thats just weird for starters he never mentioned he had a sister. Which i find strange"onxyia commented but hide some facts on his previous deeds
"Heres the weirder fact because for some reason they had pictures all over the island. But circled some of them being the training field along with the guards here. For some reason your family ghira along with daul traits here"she continued making declan looked confused
"Why the heck would they be after my daughter?"declan questioned as summer thought of something eyeing junior for a moment
"Junior you have access to the blackmarket along with bounties and contracts correct?"she asked as he nodded grabbing his scroll searching for something for a moment typing in the girl name. Then she got a hit which surprised her chcukling a little
"Well it seems the talon have a hit out you kid along with those twins you know."junior said to their shock showing a bounty and contract for the capture of onxyia for around twenty thousand lien. While for both rogue and eira it was the same amount as the wolf jaw dropped seeing her being on a hit list
"Dude what the heck? Who the heck would put cousin over here on some hit list?"aruna asked as ilia thought for a moment as one name came to mind
"Ollie! He must have put a hit out on you and the island say here that their willing to pay someone around 5 million lien to complete the job. The contract was submitted by the crimson talon since their employer requested them personally for some reason. Did you think that watts guys is behind this?"she asked as declan was absoutlly fuming that psycho put a hit out on his own daughter
"That mustached…oh walker i might be kicking his ass before you sory"declan said as the tiger narrowed her gaze because he was her prey
"Hey hes mine remember he killed my kid. Probaly the psycho that kidnapped eria and weiss but why would they even want them?"nadia asked as summer came up with something
"Probably use them as bait and since that weaver boy is apart of their group. My guess is he asked for a favor for their assistance on attacking havan…thats the favor. He must really wnat you dead"summer said not surprised as akata revealed moe.
"Actually another thing i think if we even give up short stack here they won't give up piper anyway"akata said to mari confusion
"Why would they just take my niece if they take my friends?"she asked teary eyed before presenting something she printed off on the way here. That being a wanter poster for grimm knights, bring one in alive their worth 15 million while for alive their 30 million. This complete shocked them seeing that much for a grimm knight
"Oh…holy crap thats enough money to live on the easy life for ten years"ambrosie said in complete shock
"I'm not surprised that atlas would put out bounties for them. But that much for one of their bodies because….ohhhhh thank god his body isn't here.'sun said as his tail drooped as nadia got what he was implying as that made her growl in rage hearing that.
"Okay so we need a plan now because what are we going to do exactly? They want neo and they might take piper were stuck in a rock and a hard place right now"onxyia asked confused until summer hummed placing her figner under her chin eyeing akata for a moment and neo
"Well then…if they want her we can just give her to them. Well two of them for a better deal"she said as they got what she was implying now as they have a plan now.
Meanwhile with carmel and beatrix they were waiting at the bow of the ship right now. Mainly for one thing for someone to appear as four of their students were their. While three of them mainly including mavis watched over their little hostage. As the other two kept an eye on the other five to make sure they didnt't get involved. As six boyguards stood by.
As they sat their in comeptle silence for a minute two of the remaining eight came forward escorting someone with some guest by her side. Mainly being kali in a completely different outfit right now.
This being an outfit cosnited of a white v neck zip up crop top shrit with a black hem and three quarter sleeve. Her elblem is printed off on the left side of her shrit. While she wears black pants that have a vertical gray stripe to the outer side of each leg and a black belt
While attached to the rear of the belt is a black piece of fabric that covers her from hip to hip undenreath this is a longer, translucscent, purple piece of abraic. While she wore some black high heel boots with two straps and a buckle and purple under roles reaching to her mid calf
As strapped to her waist was a khatar blade with a black grip along with the blade being sliver with golden engraving on it.
Nadia was also with her as was blake with jazmine their as neo had a suitcase in her hand staring down the women with a very annoyed look.
"Ah so you arrived. Do you know that its rude to keep a lady waitng. You were almost late"beatrix said
"Sorry but your no lady miss. Now i'm only going to say this once. Hand over piper along with miss taupe daughter. Shes unrolling her in your school'kali demanded firmly
"I don't your in the position to make demands you vermin. Because puts your weapons down leave this ship. And well hand her off to you and we'll sail off to mistral…though…where is that wolf that was with you"carmel asked itchy it seems as nadia glared slightly
"Yeah you aint taking the girl who fell for my son bitch"nadia retorted
"No need for such brutish language"beatrix said
However kali smirekd right now"actualyl i think you should listen before one of your studnets loses their head. And that wolf is very close"she replied
'What are you talking about?"beatrix questioned
"Lets just say my daughter best friend is a close but you should have never kidnapped a poor incnoent girl whos been through plenty already. Cause one that girl is a real great shot just like her dad even. "Kali said
"Come on take the bait….take the stupid bait"blake internally pleaded
"You're bluffing. That girl wouldn't have the guts to shoot on of my students"beatrix replied
"Do you really wanna try that right now because your on our island ma'am. All i need to do is well"she said snapping her figner as suddenly a very loud shot rang out across the place as one of the thugs was on the ground holding their knee as blood seeped from the wound. Imemdialty they drew their weapons on the group but they kept theirs at bay
"Where is she….where is that dam sniper?!beatirx demanded as kali wagged her finger
"I warned you…because the next one while be in one of your students heads. Because anti aura metal is very handy expensive but very handy"she said grinning as jazmine and blake shviered seeing this side of their mom.
As the five girls looked around trying to find the sniper that could possible shoot them as what they didn't know they had another plan. As on a nearby rooftop was declan with a smoking rifle as he smirked. While soon enough they decided to do the plan as neo slowly stepped forward but didn't noticed that she had a little mouse on her shoulder
Carmel smiled not even seeing it as the girl stood by her side
"Ah their you are my sweet daughter. Now your fianlyl listening to momma now come along now"She said in a sweet tone but internally neo gaged. But as she did she stopped before backing up crossing her arms
"Actually no simply trade where is piper. Because if you don't return her now things will get very ugly right now"jazmine demanded and warned
Carmel huffed as she held the denator in hand"your in no place to make demands…leave the ship because well. Shes worth alot of money…shes one of those thirteen knights of grimm. One of them was your son…right?"she asked directly looking at nadia who glared at her.
"What gave it away?"she asked
"You reacted alot though a little snake told me something. How he helped gutted that poor little freak like nothing. The serpent is a useful assassin i'll tell you even been on a few jobs together"she replied as this cofnrimed her being partner with someone. Though soon enough neo stepped forward joining her mother for a moment as she tried to embrace her.
But neo smirked turning around before rushing over toward the others as quickly blake used her semblance laughing a few clones forward. Along with that from the sides of the ships smokes grenades were thrown covering the place in a thick smoke for just a second.
As it died down for a moment carmel narrowed her gaze before going wide eyed to see two neos their. She coudln't even tell the different though one of them had icy blue eyes
"I…which one of you is my daughter? We told you if you try to play us we'd blow up this ship?"carmel warned but then from the side laughter could be heard as buckley came onto deck with cella along with his crew men with some of the faunus guard backing him up.
"Heres the thing girly i know my ship better than you. Someone was very kind early to send a bunch of pelsant faunus to disable them. Should have had someone watch em"he said as soon enough the two neo split off as the thugs began to fight the sailors as the girls got involved though immediately from the side ambroise along with yahto, sun along with some others fought them off. Though carmel noticed one of the neo running away
"Gah! You go after her right now!"she ordered one of the girls who gave chase though as she did the other noe held her umbrella out with a confident look on her face as jazmine stood their in her panther form roaring at the women. With blake by her side as well as nadia cracked her neck presenting her revolver
"Lets go you deranged psycho…because you aint taking my niece away from me"she said as they began to brawl
Though running down the side of the ship was the other neo as the girl chased her down. As the mute quickly vaulted onto the stairs running up to the girls annoyance at that moment.
"Get back here dammit! I would love to leave this flith hole finally after getting this job done"she demanded as she emerged on the second stairs to be met by someone. That being onxyia along with ilia as sun was their waving to her as the fake was revealed to akata who blew a kiss shaking her tail
"Miss me…miss me…now you gotta kiss me. You aint my type"she teased as onxyia hand glowed bright yellow before firing off a chi blast launching the girl into a wall as she slumoped down on the wall groaning
"Okay thats one of them down now we need to find that room their in"ilia said handcuffing her hands together. Quickly following them to the next floor they peeked down the hallway to see the two girls their. As ilia activated her semblance turning invisible as she snuck over as she did the two girl on guard heard banging from the door
"Let us out you psychos! Seriously why are you even doing this type of thing?!"autumn shouted on the other side as one of them sighed
"I'm sorry autumn but were just following the head mistresses orders. We don't want to be hit so…sorry"one of them said
"Yeah sorry that you guys dont listen. But i got a name to uphold and you idiots aren't going to hold us back"another said before suddenly the two where both pulled down but an unseen force as they were slowly being choked out as the two where on the ground as ilia shimmered into existence. As soon enough she swiftly knocked the two out standing up as they rushed over to her.
"Man does being an ex spy and assassin haves it perks or what"sun said
"It does but lets get these girls out of here then head off to grab piper"she said as akata took keys buckley gave them unlocking the door as the four girls their a autumn smiled with tears in her eyes with hope
"Are you here to save us?"She asked as the wolf nodded
"Yes though…have you seen sombra is she in here with you?"she asked as the four girls shook her head
"No mavis came by early taking her to the other side of the ship. The headmsitresses told her they needed another hostage"she said as quickly they left akata as they began to quickly get to the other side of the ship that overlook where mavis and the others were right now. Though staring down at them right now was beatrix rushing over with a pistol in hand as mavis stepped foward
"Miss browning we heard gunfire did something–"she was stopped
"Quiet girl! You two come with me they disabled our escape plan and i need back. Whicnhester keep an eye on these two and if they even try anything. Cut her down"she said pointing to piper hanging by a crane over the waters below with cinder blocks attached to a rope around her ankles. mavis nodded as beatrix and the two rushed back.
Soon enough onxyia and the two made themselves know hoping down as mavis was on the offensive before placing the knife to the rope attached to piper.
"Step back! If you move another inch i swear to god i'll cut her rope and send her into the ocean below to drown like the monster she is"mavis warned as piper was viable crying but was muffled right now because they strapped an SDC collar on her
Ilia glared a little at her"your not going to do that because you don't want any of this?"ilai stated making the girl flinch slightly
"What are you talking about?...i'm doing what i must…this is oblviosu what i want"mavis retorted but sombra looked up at her glaring a little
"Your lying….seriously mavis are you that scared of that old hag?"sombra said as they were slowly advancing on her as mavis hoped up bringing the knife to piper restrains and placed a pistol to her head
"Back off…i mean it…i…i.."she paused because she doens't know what to do as ilia knows what she might be going through
"You don't want to do any of this. Believe me i've been through it i was forced to help some psycho. He…he killed my girlfirend and her brother"ilia said gesutring to onxyia for a moment
"Do you really wanna listen to someone to control your life? Make your choices in your life thinking whats best for you? Their using you for their own perosanlly gain to have something that only benefits themselves. I've always dreamed of living a normal life everysince i lost my parents and then put in foster care. I made terrible mistakes and decision in my life that almost ruined me. But do you really wanna be apart of some dumb school for assasin!"lilia shouted making her flinch for a moment as sombra eyed her for a moment
"mavis…you aren't like this…you told me how hanging with me and autumn changed your views on faunus. You wanted to become a huntress and attend the same academy like your brother but he got what he wanted. While you got sent here by your mom for reckless beahaviro. Look at you….your about to try and kill a little girl"she said with an uspet look
mavis and the girls eyes met with cyan and purple as she stared at the knife in hand then at piper. Shaking a little she threw it on the ground before bringing piper to the side and isnerted a keycard on the collar releasing her and undoing her restraints as she was crying.
"I don't wanna go back to the white coats…i don't wanna get shocked again….i don't want to do more test"she cried and cried as sun walked over picking her up. As mavis undid sombra restrains before starting to cry hugging her as she eyed onxyia who smiled
Meanwhile with the others they were winning right now as they dealt with most of the thugs right now. And most of the girls placing them in restraints as some of them were still fighting them off as carmel was in the middle of fighting off the panther that swiped at her several times but the women dodged it before siwflty kicking it back into the side of the ship hard as it groaned a little on the ground.
It steaded itself right now as carmel grinned walking over with a heavy caliber pistol"god this is just pathetic. I will not have my daughter mingle with some filthy animal. Epecially one that is touching her all over"she said primmering the hammer
Though blake was close by but went wide eyed seeing the women aiming a gun at her little sister right now. Something just snapped inside her because she doens't want to get hurt anymore never again. She she summoned three clones as they split from her body and this time had different colors
The first one had cyan colored hair and eyes. The second light brown hair and light brown eyes, and the third had fire red hair and eyes.
"W-what the?...four of them?!"a girls hotued qutie surprised as kali looked surprised
"Don't just stand their attack!'beatrix ordered as one of them shot at the four blakes but they all scatered taking different target. As the cyan colored one went after a girl shooter as it tired to defend the sudden rush of attacks drawing her sword but the clone wa sfaster as with a cyan colored gambrol shroud around his legs tripping him as she fell to the ground and then stabbed her wepaon into the ship floor freezing half her body imbolizing her
While the light brown one went after a thug as he fired at the lone but ever shot seemed to hit it but not stop it as it rushed tackling him to the ground but he menaged to hold onto his weapon as he rolled from the tackle before sitting in the a kneeled position and fired into the clone but like last time nothing effect it like he thought as it stabbed the ground as piles of earth emerged from its body entrapping him
The fiery red on clone wasted little time with the girl it tought already clashing baldes with her but the clone was overpowering her as she was pushed back by the clone. The lone went for another slash but this time the female sidesteped and plunged her blade into the side of the clone. However it didn't dsipepared instead the clone glowed brighte before exploding sending her into a metal wall kncoking her out.
Meanwhile blake tackled carmel off her sister but they got in a small scuffle for a moment. Then carmel growled before grabbing a knife and stabbing blake in the side as it cut through her aura as she roared in pain
"Die you miserable brat if i bring your corpse to the fang your worth a million lien"She said but neo rushed over kicking her off her as this made her groan standing up as her and beatrix were soon realziing all their man power they brought were under restraints. As nadia and summer stepped forward.
"Now…triva dear…you don't need to do this momma will forgive you"carmel said but neo pointed hush at her feet firing a small epxlsoion off almost shooting her feet off
Triva gasped at this"thats not nice…come now be a dear and listen to your momma"she ordered as neo gave her the bird
"Yeah cut the bullshit lady. You adbaoend my niece in the dead of winter before my freind her father took her in. she almost died from hypothermia"nadia spat out
"I didn't adboned her i.."carmel begun she was cut off
"Simply forgetting isn't going to work. I may have abaodned mine but for very good reason to protect her. But you…your worse what mother does that to a child? I did it to protect mine you…your a monster"summer shouted not buying anything she sailing
"You shouldn't just forgot about your daughter for eleven years…i haven't for mine. And…i hope to see her again soon"Summer said as kali smiled hearing that
This anger carmel as she finally broke"fine! You know why i decided to abandoned that little brat. She was never going to be perfect. When i gave birth to her i had dreams that she would become something great that i could be proud of instead she was born completely imperfect. I tried to be a great parent but you try being houdned by other elties that your daughter has freaksih eyes and can't speak. It becomes an annoying problem"carmel began as they took everything in
"So i found a large estaed out in mistral. Myself and my husband moved their not having to worry about the stain of imperfection after we payed our butler to drop her off in the dead of winter. I couldn't care less if she died it bed a dam blessing"She admitted hitting neo to her core making her blood boil
"And you whats even better. My new daughter at home is just waiting for me. So it matters little if i come without her. I wanted to gain more reputation by the elites"she said venom running down her mouth with every word. As the panther walked over guarding neo growling at the women
"You sicken me. A parents job is to nurture our kids and help them group into whatever they wanted to become not put them on a path you force them too. We are their to help them they fall and heal them when they get hurt. Correct them on their mistakes and encourage them when they do something right. Theres no such thing as a perfect child and hell mine was used by a mad scientist to commit a terrible tragedy. No one might never belvie me…buts is true….some psycho took my son and experimented on him. What gives you the right like the man who took my son to take these kids lives away? Your school is a prison"nadia relied
"Thats the point of our school is to make our student become fine member of sotciety and the most dangoerus to dare stand in their way. Takes these girl from example best from the best from families to carry on their tradition. You low life will never understand the vision of our world"beatrix replied
Kali treated her daughter wound tying a bandaged around it"all i see are girls that were robbed of their opprutnies on what they want to be. There dreams are put aside for their families want what they want not their children"She siad making some of the girl think for a moment
"Dreams? Ha! There reams mean very little to me when they do what their told!"beatrix replied with a smirk
"Your wrong about that you old bitch!"sombra shouted from above with a confidence look on our face
"Our dreams give us inpsirtation to look forward to it. Something to keep us going and never give up on that dream. But we can't do that trapped in your school and i'm sure some of just wanna leave. And follow our own dream pretty sure autumn and mavis agree with me!"she said as the two joined her side
"Quiet you worm! Especially you need to learn some manners on how you speak from someone in a higher class than you"carmel ordered as sombra gesutred to her hand before giving her the middle finger
"Hey bitch do me a dam favor and shut the hell up. Man it feels great to swear again"sombra said laguhign at her.
"Enough! Girls i order you to eliminate them now or else!"betraix ordered. However some of the girls eyed each other as none of them stood up as they anitcpited them to attack. But soon enough alot of them all except for maybe three of them stepped forward on sombra side
"What are you doing?!"betrix questioned with a scowl on her face
"Leaving your dam school because i don't want to be all lady like in society. I wanted to attend a huntsman academy with my twin brother cardin. I wanna be a huntress"mavis stated
"So she is his twin brother….shocker"colt chuckled muttering to hismelf
"What? This is completely ridiculous. This is a dangerous way of talking young lady. In my school your safe and sound"beatrix said trying to convince them
"What if i don't want to be safe anymore? I want excitement and thrills, to stare death in the face and spit back. All my brother sends me are letters…talking about the adventures hes gone on. Granted hes also mentioned amazing people he met while attending his school"she paid as somber look came to her
"And he lost his teammates and a good friend who was a leader like himself. But i'm not going to stand by and let you control my life anymore. I'm sick of your abuse we all are"she finished as some of the girls cheered
"My..my the tables have turned"nadia said with a smirk
"This changes nothing! You hear me! Nothing! Even without them i can still handle you all myself. I should be able to handle some simple huntresses liek yourself. Why even one of my top graduates is a grimm knight…kiyo was such a lovely girl"betrix said brandishing her long twin sais as some shared looks for a moment.
"You gotta go through us first"sun said as all of them were ready to fight.
"Ha! Like that will matter because i'm far from simple. Ever hear of the leader of team SRTQ? And the savage huntress"summer qustioned
"Should i?"beatrix questioned but carmel actually regonzied those names now and their faces
"Oh no…that was a famous huntsman team in beacon and that is a name of a brutal boxer in the faunus women league"carmel said
"Were? More like they still are even after my death was well exgarated"summer siad as nadia cracked her fsit
"And i've been a pretty nasty girl in the ring before i lost my arm. Well my right hook packs more a punch"nadia said with a toothy grin
"Big deal i can handle all of you"beatrix stated but carmel put her hands up
"We…we might need to surrender"carmel said
"Why?"she qeustioned
"Their have been stories about that team how they defeated a large anicdent grimm while in their youths huntsman and huntresses couldn't defeated. Two of them tangled with the wendigo…and that savage huntresses brutally K.O over a hundred people and fought nichols schnee"she said
"Oh that…man that was fun i knocked one of his teeth out. Summer and her team did kill like….i don't….ten alpha deathstalker their first year"nadia said as beatrix began to sweat bullets until finally keeping a straight face in a growl of frustration put her hands up as they were arrested
After gaining back control of the ship about eleven of the girls were making their way into town. As mari rushed over holding piper close in her arms
"Oh their you sweetie…everything will be alright"she cired as piper hugged her aunt for dear life as mavis looked away. Sombra looked at her mother who looked hurt seeing all the bruise on her face and body as she simply hugged her close
"I'm sorry sweetie..i'm so sorry"lisa cried as her daughter just hugged her tight
"I…its fine mom…i…love you…i've missed you so much"sombra cried as lisa held it as nadia eyed it upset seeing that thinking about the kid she lost. Though the panther soon shrank in size as quickly they covered her with a blanket as jazmine poked her head out smiling.
"We did it! My girlfriend saved!"she cheered lunging at neo as this result in her blanket being thrown to the winds as all of them stood their in silence as jazmine stood completely horrified right now
"Okay guess my youngest is a streaker….your never going to live this down now dear"kali said as they paused for a moment laughing at the girl as jazmine quickly retrieved the blanket very hot in the face. As they were now free of the wicked mother of a certain mute.
It seems that carmel and beatrix have been dealt with along with the students of her academy now being free of her terror. Though jazmine had an embrassing moment along with her older sister semblance evoling. Thanks for reading!
