Hey guys! Not much to say, except I hope u enjoy the chapter.
Fighting And Wanting Attachments
A day had passed and Kron had woken up. He tried getting up again and cringed. The burns still hurt and he struggled to even move. He looked around the room and growled at his surroundings. He always did hate being confided in one room ever since he was young.
He wanted to leave badly, this felt like a prison even though he wasn't in chains.
Kron managed to stand up but barely once again planning to leave.
Then he remembered a point Blake made. If he left and anyone recognized him, anyone would be able to take him down.
That would be embarrassing.
Reluctantly the Saiyan laid back down on the bed and released a long sigh. Oh well, the bed was comfy at least, when his burns calm down he'll leave. Besides Ozpin has proven that he wants him to keep him alive, not to mention he's not trying to lock him away.
Guess he'll rest a bit longer before leaving, he's got more to gain by staying. Still, he remembered having more freedom back in the Belladonna household at least he was able to have free reign in the house. Here it might not be a good idea to leave with random students wandering the halls.
Best rest first, maybe he can explore the school once his health has improved.
Kron looked up at the ceiling and felt hungry. If he doesn't get food soon he might just go to this school's food supply if he has to.
Just then the door opened, and someone walked in.
The Saiyan turned to the door expecting to see Blake again.
Instead, it was the girl in black and red. The half-sister of Yang if he remembered right.
"Um, hi." Ruby waved smiling.
Kron said nothing, he couldn't remember her name. But he did remember one thing about her.
"Why are you here Tail Biter?"
"Tail biter?" Ruby asked confused but thought of their fight when she bit his tail. "Oh right that, well sorry but you were kind of hurting my sister."
Kron only shrugged and made sure his tail was on the other side of the bed.
"Anyway, listen, I know I already thanked you for saving half my team, but I thought maybe you should get a get-well gift." She held up a bag containing cookies.
Kron rose an eyebrow and sniffed, they smelled really sweet. He was getting hungry.
But he was getting tired of being coddled and spoke.
"I didn't do it for you," Kron said in a dull tone. "You don't need to thank me over and over."
Ruby only kept her innocent smile.
"Yeah, but you still did!" She replied happily. "I trusted Blake when she said there was more to you and you proved her right."
He didn't respond to that, because he couldn't. He wanted to say that it means nothing that he couldn't help but save her. But that sounds like it makes it worse and all but confirms Blake's thoughts on him. And Kalis.
As Kron was silent Ruby placed the cookies on his side table.
"Hope you enjoy them, sorry but I still have a class to go to, get well soon! Blake says that too!"
Kron eyed the treats and looked at Ruby.
"Wait."
Ruby stopped and turned expecting a thank you.
But typically he doesn't and has a question.
"Your scythe, those movements, who trained you?"
The girl deflated slightly disappointed that he didn't thank her but she was ok with it, she knows he was just rough around the edges.
"My uncle Qrow trained me."
Kron remembered the weakling and a sense of anger came to him.
But Ruby didn't notice and looked at the clock on the wall.
"Oh! Sorry, but I gotta go!"
The crimson-haired girl vanished leaving behind rose petals.
As Kron watched her go, he was again confused by a person's actions treating him like this.
And thinking of what she had said. Like he thought she was trained by Yang's uncle Qrow.
Before when Kron realized Yang was not her mother, he would have seen Ruby as someone like Qrow and Raven given that she was trained by one of the treacherous siblings.
While he didn't feel the need to attack her, he was suspicious.
Qrow Branwen had tried to trick him by using his Semblance to blindside him. A cheap move any Branwen would use.
He hadn't thought of Raven's brother in a while, he likely taught her to use a scythe. And remembered how he tried to trick him like any in the tribe like his sister.
If he trained her, how to fight, he wondered what else he taught her.
He eyed the cookie bag.
He's never seen Raven use poison, but he wouldn't doubt that she would or has done it. Or her like-minded brother.
But Blake and strangely enough Yang wouldn't want her to do that, he knows that. So maybe she wouldn't.
And Kron's assumptions have led him to harm Blake's father, attacking her team and nearly doing things he could never undo.
The Saiyan didn't believe she would but he didn't know her.
So he took a cookie out of the bag and sniffed it. Smelled fine, plus he was a Saiyan, surely whatever poison they had wouldn't be enough to take him down.
Kron took a bite and his widened, he then devoured it forgetting about the possibility of poison.
Maybe she's not like her uncle after all. Yang shares actual blood with Qrow and has proven that she's nothing like them.
Tasted fine, just sweet, maybe it wasn't poison after all.
He shoved several more enjoying it.
"Not bad."
Far Away
Eclipse was carrying Hazel by his arms.
He was a drooling mess and groaning while his eyes glowed blue, purple, and brown.
The Grimm's green eyes looked into Hazel's ever-changing eyes.
Hazel showed no reaction only letting out drool.
The poor man was lost, unable to be in charge of his own body.
Eclipse tilted his head, wondering what will happen to the big man. Will he die to take out those shiny rocks? He hoped not. He's one of Lady Salem's friends. It isn't fair for one of her friends to die.
Friends were supposed to stick together and have fun together. She wouldn't kill her friend, would she?
When the creature thought of that something stirred in him.
Friends.
He wondered what it was like to have one.
He looked to see a familiar island.
Eclipse arrived on the island and stood before his father with the larger Hazel over his shoulder.
Dr. Merlot smiled looking at him.
"Great work Eclipse! You've brought him! Was there any trouble?"
Eclipse shook his head with a green smile.
"I knew it, you didn't need to wait to recover to deal with Oz's feeble scientists." Dr. Merlot said smiling and walked. "Come, Lady Salem is waiting."
The monster nodded as he walked behind his father while carrying the big man.
As the duo walked they see the familiar eye with tentacles.
"Eclipse, glad to see you return unharmed."
The creature bowed alongside his father while still holding the big man over his shoulder.
"And Hazel's unharmed, impressive, now come let's bring him to his chamber."
Eclipse nodded as he followed the floating eye alongside his father.
As the two walked they heard a woman scream.
Cinder was inside screaming in agony from the Soul Dust being absorbed into her.
"Poor dear," Salem said. "I'm glad that Emerald can't hear right now."
Eclipse felt bad for the little girl she was mean to his father but her screaming must mean she was in pain but without the fun of fighting. So sad.
Dr. Merlot on the other hand was smiling, it was what the woman deserved for calling Eclipse an 'it' instead of he.
The three made it to a room similar to Cinder's where she is taking the time to absorb her crystals.
"Eclipse, take Hazel to the center of the room."
The creature was confused but he knew better than to question his queen and took Hazel to the center still groaning.
Salem in her Seer looks over the down at the drooling Hazel.
"To think Qrow has grown so strong, strong enough to force Hazel to use them," Salem noted wondering what Ozpin has done to increase his subordinate's strength. She doesn't remember him having anyone with Maiden-level strength at his side, or even himself.
In the past, she'd be upset that Ozpin had one-upped her. Now though? She felt exhilarated, it seems as though this boy had pushed Ozpin to try something new as well, like Ironwood and that armor Merlot wanted to steal.
Now it was her turn to push her creativity.
"Eclipse, ripen the Soul Dust in his body."
Eclipse looked confused hearing that and down at Hazel.
Dr. Merlot decided to clear up his confusion.
"You should be able to drain his Aura and affect the Soul Dust flowing through his body, try it, just, spread your arm over him."
Eclipse nodded and put his hands on Hazel, the hands split apart and wrapped around his body.
He could feel it, the Aura surrounding him, it felt so wrong like it didn't belong.
And he alone can hear the screaming of the two souls that were harvested.
They needed to be ripened to accept their place within Hazel, at Salem's side.
He grunted in pain as he felt the Soul Dust within, the Aura burning his body, it hurt, but it was nothing compared to the amount of Soul Dust he had to ripen.
The Souls, fighting to take control of Hazel, screamed less and less. His one true Soul started to take control.
You'd expect the brute to be relieved.
But instead Hazel screamed in pain, his eyes stopped glowing and his body was covered in veins similar to Cinders.
Eclipse pulled back and looked at the big man screaming. His Aura was glowing different colors like with Cinder.
Hazel was on his knees and slammed his arms on the ground. The pain was brutal he needed it to stop. He tried to use his Semblance Numbing Agent.
But he couldn't. His Semblance wouldn't activate, he couldn't use it, and his Aura was fluctuating.
Eclipse was worried, he wondered if the big man was going to suffer like Cinder is.
Salem's Seer floated next to him.
"Perfect Eclipse, do not worry, he'll just need time to accept his gifts." The Grimm Queen noted. "Now come along you two, let's give him some privacy.
Eclipse nodded and walked away while watching the big man scream in agony.
He was so happy that Lady Salem didn't have to kill the big man, he seemed fun, and maybe he can play with him when he gets better.
Beacon
Yang had mixed feelings about going back to class. On the one hand, it brought back a sense of normalcy, when things weren't so complicated days after initiation, just going to class, trying to socialize with her unsocial partner, dealing with the Ice Queen getting her panties in a wad, and making sure Ruby eats more than just cookies in her diet.
Things were so simple and probably would have stayed that way until she met Kron her newest lead to her mother. That's when things changed. She found out that her mother raised someone else's kid and was manipulative as can be. And she's been put to training under him to learn a new ability to stop him from killing her, which resulted in the toughest training regime she's ever had.
Seriously, even her dad and Uncle Qrow's training wasn't this tough.
And she had to come to terms with the kind of person her mother was as well as that she might die.
So yeah, coming to class, it felt nice, like things were simple again and she kinda missed the mediocrity.
On the other hand, the new chaos in her life the harsh training, and her new power. She enjoyed it and was even looking forward to her fight against Kron when she can fight on even footing with him.
And use her new power to kick way more ass than ever.
What battle maniac wouldn't enjoy that?
Also, Kron while he can be a real jerk, he's kinda fun to be around, with his ways of getting her stronger. And how weirdly cute he is being technologically inept, like a caveman. Not to mention he saved her teammates and put himself in the infirmary to do it.
She was definitely starting to warm up to the guy and hoped that they can start being friends instead of just wanting to beat each other down.
Though if she were honest with herself if Raven her mother does die. She's not sure that she can accept it or move past it. She came to terms that if her mother does die, then she'd have it coming. She raided villages, put Blake's family in danger, and tricked Kron into doing so.
Sure Kron was no saint, he's done his share of wrong, she knows that. But he now seems to be doing good. He's protected Vale from the White Fang and stopped a woman named Cinder from whatever plan she was making. Sure he did it to satisfy his end of the deal with Ozpin, but still, what good has Raven ever done?
All in all, she's kind of happy to have met Kron. She got to know more about her mother and how she might've been better off never having her in her life and a strong training partner.
But that didn't mean she was going to let him win.
She wanted to beat Kron, not to save Raven, but to capture her, herself, and lock her up. Make her answer for her wrongdoings. And maybe, just maybe see if she can change, like Blake had said that Kron has.
Though even if she does change, she'll likely not want her in her life.
Once class ended she was on her way out, it was lunch time but she wanted to check up on Kron. Both to see how he's doing and to find a way to continue her training.
"Going to see Kron?"
Yang turned to see Blake standing behind her.
"Yep," She said popping the 'P'. "Gonna ask him for some tips on my Ki for later training." She said smiling. "You wanna come with?"
Blake sighed looking guilty and responded.
"I would but Ozpin asked me to see him about something," Blake replied. "It's about the White Fang."
Yang remembered how she was an ex-White Fang member and looked worriedly.
"Need me to go with you?"
Blake shook her head and smiled.
"No, besides I'm sure Kron's been wanting to talk to someone for a bit, he loves talking about himself."
"I noticed, the caveman's gotta bigger head than a goliath." She said mockingly, the two women laughed saying that.
Yang walked away towards the infirmary with a smile on her face.
She walked in the room number smiling to see Kron devouring a mutton.
"Yo"
Kron stopped eating and looked at the blonde interrupting the meal that was brought to him.
"Miss me?"
"Tch" He swallowed a good chunk of meat and looked at the young woman. "Shouldn't you be in class or whatever?"
"It's lunch, Blake's busy and thought you might want a visitor."
Kron looked up and down at the young woman and noticed a change of clothes.
"The hell are you wearing?"
It looked strange and not at all what she usually wears.
Yang smiled and held out her arms. "My school uniform? I've decided to try getting back to class, doesn't it look good on me?"
Kron rolled his eyes and took another bite.
"Do what you want, just don't let this get in the way of your training."
School, he was glad he didn't have to endure going to it, being forced to wear a uniform and attending classes sounded really annoying.
"Why do you think I'm here?" Yang asked smiling."I wanted to know when we get back to training, you got any idea when you'll be up and ready to train again?"
Blake had said that she wouldn't be up for training anytime soon, now she seemed to be begging for more training. He was glad that she was wrong and regained her resolve for getting stronger. And he'd love nothing more than to continue her training regime. But unfortunately, that idiot Bertilak's burns were more serious than he thought, glad he murdered him.
"If I had to guess a day or two." He said annoyed. The doctors said he'll need a few more, but given how wrong the doctors of Menagerie were about his health would probably progress faster. Not that he could blame them, they couldn't account for Saiyan biology.
Speaking of Saiyan biology, he needed to explain something to her, though not completely.
"That sucks guess I gotta train the old-fashioned way." She sighed disappointed that she couldn't see what Kron had planned next.
And Kron couldn't allow that, she needed to know what she was up against.
"No, you can't just train normally, you need to really step up your training, you may have gotten much stronger than you were a month ago, I don't think you could have taken Adam by then. But now you need to train even harder, push your strength to an even greater leap than you were a month ago." Kron said to her.
Yang rose an eyebrow, Kron has always encouraged her to get stronger but now he acted like her progress wasn't much.
"Really? Are you saying I'm still not close to your level?" She knew she wasn't but she didn't think he'd have to tell her.
"No, before if you had continued your training as is, you had a chance to maybe have me resort to full power." Though he had to admit without the Maiden abilities, it was still a long shot. "But now, you have an even greater wall to climb, if you want to beat me." He explained the reality of the situation. "Once I'm recovered I'll be even stronger."
Yang was even more confused at the ridiculous claim. "You're getting stronger just by sitting in the hospital? No way, you're not serious."
Kron thought of how to explain this, he could just explain his species, their abilities, and everything. He's not exactly against revealing what he is, but it would take too much time, not to mention he'd need to get proof which is in a cave in Anima and he wasn't exactly fit for travel. But he needed her to understand that he was getting even stronger and to motivate her to push herself if he wanted the challenge he hoped for all this time.
He'll try to be a bit vague with his explanation for now, if she asks for more details he'll explain later, revealing his species and all.
"I have an ability where if I almost die, I'll get stronger." Kron continued. "Once I'm healed up my strength will increase and you catching up to me will be even harder than before."
Yang was surprised to hear that and was about to call bull on it but she didn't she had a thought that lit her expression.
"Really? This a Ki technique?" She asked excitedly, maybe this was something else she can do.
If only, then Kron could more easily bring her up to his level.
But he needed to be real with her and continued to explain "No, it's something that people in my family can do." The Saiyan replied. "It's an ability that I was born with that can push me further than anyone around me, I've only had it happen to me twice, first by your mother, then by an Alpha Ursa."
Yang didn't understand but after all she's seen, she'd feel it'd be dumb to doubt him. He literally showed her a new power that she never heard about.
"So how much stronger will you get? Do I even have a chance?"
Probably not, though Kron hoped she would find a way to do so.
"It depends on a couple of factors." He rose a hand and one by one he rose a finger. "One how strong the opponent who brought me to this state was, two how much I struggled, three how long ago the last time I almost died, and four how close to death I was."
Those were the four factors of the Saiyan's infamous Zenkai that made his race so strong.
Yang listen intently and began to get nervous, he does look pretty banged up.
Kron continued to explain and finally answer her question. "So Berilak was strong, with his partner strong enough to force me to fight at full power, but since I haven't struggled too much, and that's been years since my last brush with death if you want me to guess." He remembered the leaps he made with his first and second Zenkai boosts. "Probably a 10 to 30% increase, give or take, either way, you will have even more work to do."
That wasn't as bad as what Yang thought he was going to say more than that.
Hearing all this she couldn't help but sigh and cross her arms. "Really? Before I thought I was doing really good getting stronger And now you're telling me you're going to get even stronger after getting fixed up, man this is so unfair." She brushed through her hair a little frustrated hearing that the training didn't close the gap as much as she would have liked.
Kron heard that and chuckled.
"Well you got Aura and I don't." The Saiyan replied. "Hopefully with two energies, it makes all this more fair."
"Yeah until you get it yourself." Yang chuckled not knowing that he likely can't given his true heritage. She then had a cheeky grin on her face spotting a grin. "I guess what doesn't Ki-ll you makes you stronger."
Kron groaned hearing that and facepalmed. "Your puns will never stop will they?"
Yang only laughed at her genius pun and smiled not bothered by the news of his growing strength.
"Fine, then I got more work to do, any ideas on how I can improve?
Kron can hear the eagerness, she still hasn't lost her resolve after hearing about the situation. Good, hopefully, it's with good reason.
He thought back to her fight against Adam. He remembered how she made a horrible mistake.
"Try to practice firing Ki blasts." He said to her. "When you blasted your Ki, you made the mistake of firing all of it, try to manage it, and lower your Ki output, you should only fire all your Ki as a last resort." She fired a huge Ki ball that left her body vulnerable and he fired back in a slash.
Yang remembered how she screwed up that fight. When she fired her Ki at Adam he fired back her strength and almost cut her in half.
"Blasts huh?" Yang replied. "Huh, not sure, I'm more of a close combat kinda gal, any blasts I fire'll be close range, I only fired at Adam cause I was trying to surprise him."
Kron shook his head. "You can stick to close combat, the point is to increase your efficiency with Ki, think of your Ki blasts as long distant punches, and doing so will help increase your Ki reserves, think of it like doing an exercise focusing on one muscle."
Yang thought of it and it made sense, it'll be like her usual training only with pure energy instead of the body.
"Got it, thanks, Caveman," Yang said smiling as he glared at her and saw he was about to keep eating. "You good, or need me to keep you company?"
The Saiyan put his mutton down and looked at her.
"I'm fine, you can go, now let me eat remember what I said."
Yang shrugged her shoulders and walked off smiling and sees an empty bag that she remembered had Ruby's cookies.
"Laters, I'll tell Ruby that you liked the cookies."
Kron watched her go and focused on eating.
He thought of what he told her, he had half a mind that she'd be demoralized. But she wasn't in fact she seemed to be even more eager to try to catch up to him.
He looked at his arms wondering how strong he will get after he's healed.
The Saiyan wasn't sure if he was hoping for a massive Zenkai boost or not, on the one hand, any Saiyan would love more power, on the other it might ruin his whole game.
What if at the end of this, his idea of a Ki, Maiden enhanced Yang wouldn't be a match for him?
Oh well, nothing he could do about it, regardless of his increase he'll just do his best to push Yang to new levels.
And he has an idea to push her strength, a place where she can grow for the next three months.
Either way however this ends, Yang will at least become the strongest human on the planet.
Especially since she was the only Ki user on the planet.
Emerald Forest
While every other Beacon student was in class or at their lunch break one student would be taking her new extra lessons to heart
Pyrrha was in the forest with her hands in front of her chest.
She wasn't sure how she felt about not being with her teammates whom she's grown to get along with, and an interest in Jaune she didn't understand, but she couldn't say no to Ozpin's offer. The new ability he's been teaching her, just was too good to pass up, she wanted to learn it, similar to how she wanted to learn how to use her Aura when she was a child.
Pyrrha closed her eyes and focused on what Ozpin had said. Keep calm, and find the source of what makes your body function, your energy. Not your soul's energy, but what makes the heart pump, what keeps her body alive.
She breathed in and out.
And finally, a red ball of light formed.
The girl looked surprised and her eyes widened seeing it.
She turned around with excitement, she didn't think she'd learn it in a few days.
Ozpin smiles seeing that.
"Very good, it's only been three days, and already you've used Ki." Of course not as efficient as Kron but still it was something.
Pyrrha smiled as she held it up, this ball of red energy was small but still it was amazing. She then took a breath and stopped focusing the Ki ball faded out of existence, and then the four-time Mistral champion fell to one knee.
Ozpin was concerned but wasn't surprised Yang had shown exhaustion, he did to when he tried it the first time.
"Are you alright?"
The redhead looked up at him sweating already.
"Yes," She panted. "It's exhausting, especially with these." She held up her arms showing the white bracelets that Yang wore last month to restrain her Aura.
Ozpin smiled at that, Kron may have been new to teaching but he was smart for utilizing Aura restraints for Yang's Ki training, it kept the user from mistakingly using their Aura instead of their Ki, and with them, the user can focus on their body's energy instead of the soul.
"Very good," The headmaster said. "Tell me, Miss Nikos, how do you feel?"
Pyrrha smiled though still exhausted from the energy she showed.
"It feels great Ozpin this power, it feels different than Aura, I can feel it flow through my body, to my hands and then out of my hands. It almost feels like I'm extending my Aura only, it's as if I'm using my physical body."
That checks out with Kron's explanation of Ki being the energy of the body and not the Soul.
"Yes, it is an exciting feeling," Ozpin admitted remembering when he learned to utilize his Ki.
After watching through the security cameras how Yang had learned Ki, he remembered Kron's explanation and was easily able to replicate it within hours of observing. Of course, as experienced as he is, it is no small task, it was new, something that he never knew even existed. Perhaps the gods did know. Though if that were the case why would they take their ability to wield magic but not their ability to wield Ki?
Perhaps they believe no one would be able to learn it, after all the only reason he learned was due to Kron being here. Without him, no one likely would have been able to learn Ki, and things would be different. He wondered if anyone would ever learn to use Ki at all.
He supposes he'll never know, only until he meets the gods.
If he ever will that is.
Pyrrha was ecstatic learning this ability it was extraordinary and she couldn't wait to learn how far this power could go. How much stronger she can get. But then she frowned when she realized something. She was getting what she feared, special treatment. The very thing she wanted to avoid when she left Mistral.
Sure she could have refused Ozpin's offer but there was something alluring about this power and she wanted to see if she could replicate it. How could she say no to learning an ability she's never seen before? She couldn't. But now she feels like she's being put on a pedestal again, separated from her friends.
"Is something wrong Miss Nikos?" Ozpin knew what she was worried about just by looking at her. He only asked to give her a response to a question he saw coming.
Pyrrha looked down and decided to speak her mind. "I was thinking, now that I have shown that I am capable of wielding this power, perhaps we can teach my team next?" She asked and hurriedly continued. "I know Nora might be irresponsible and Jaune isn't quite at the level you wish him to be, but Ren would be capable and with discipline so can Nora and Jaune with enough training." Truthfully she didn't want to train to the point where she was far from her classmates, she at least wanted her friends to share her training in addition to the extra lessons they received from Ozpin.
Ozpin kept a friendly smile but he was saddened knowing her reasoning. She felt alone being the one receiving this training as she always did in Mistral. He could tell just from interacting with her. He felt guilty wanting to grant her wish, but he wanted to prioritize her training first.
Once he has learned all he can about Ki and shared it with Pyrrha, he can move on to other capable students. But first, he wanted to set her on the path to becoming the next Fall Maiden. Or at least half Maiden.
This way, she can be Vale's protector against Salem armed with both Ki and Maiden abilities.
And of course in addition to Yang, if Raven refuses to make the right choice when Taiyang and Qrow find her then at the end if Kron does execute Raven then he will have not only two Maidens on the side of humanity but two Ki enhanced Maidens.
Perhaps they can surpass Salem even if they can't surpass Kron.
But first, he can't allow too many people to be aware of Ki, so he will stick with one student and a few others. He wouldn't want anyone from Salem's faction to learn how this ability works.
With all that he had his reason and responded to Pyrrha's question.
"Not yet, this power is new and we need to take our steps carefully." He can see her hopes dashed in her eyes, poor thing, she did feel alone.
The redhead kept her smile and nodded.
"I see, very well."
Pyrrha tried not to frown at that.
Ozpin decided to allow her to look forward to not being the only one to have this power.
"In time we can be more open with our lessons." He spoke. "In the meantime please, trust me, in time you will see that this is the best for everyone.
Pyrrha had a sad smile and nodded looking forward to showing her friends the new ability she will learn.
She may not be happy being alone with these lessons but she was happy to know she won't be alone forever.
But from his explanation that in time they will need more capable warriors before it's too late.
Whatever threat he fears, she just hoped that she will have the power to protect her friends.
Ozpin then took out his scroll and looked at his student.
"That will be enough for today Miss Nikos, I have a meeting with another student." They exchange goodbyes and Ozpin goes off to meet Blake.
Blake was walking through the halls, she finished her last class for the day she thought of her meeting with Ozpin.
He had explained what some huntsman had found in the hideouts Kron had raided. There were plans that she never thought the White Fang would be capable of.
A train that was going to detonate Mountain Glenn attracted Grimm to the city and airships with Grimm to take to Vale. And to make Beacon Academy fall.
It was so disturbing that she felt disgusted being a part of the White Fang at all.
After Ozpin had shown her all that disturbing information he had a proposal that she couldn't pass up, and neither her team would.
She was going to be busy for a few days, first, she'll need to see Kron, and then pay a visit to him one more time. She wasn't sure if she wanted to see him, but she had to. If she can accept Kron after all he's done in his past, he can accept her long-time friend and mentor as well.
Hopefully, it will end with closure.
She reached the door to Kron's infirmity room and opened it.
Kron was not in bed, he was on the ground doing push-ups with one arm, cringing in pain as he did so.
Blake's bow twitched seeing that, he should be resting.
The Saiyan kept doing push-ups but cringed in pain while doing so, this wasn't doing his injuries any good but he didn't care, he didn't want to sit still. It's fine his injuries will still recover.
He stopped when he noticed a shadow over him.
He glanced up to see Blake kneeling in front of him and frowning.
Kron continued while meeting her glare.
"Need something?"
Blake sighed and poked his burned shoulder.
The Saiyan growled as he fell to the ground and glared.
"When will you stop that?"
Blake stood up and crossed her arms. "When you stop being an idiot, get to bed now."
Kron rolled his eyes.
"You really are Kali's daughter."
"I take that as a compliment now get to bed or your burns are never going to heal."
The Saiyan walked to his bed while cringing from the pain, he can't help but think how the mighty have fallen. He wondered how his younger self would have felt knowing he'll end up receiving help from people so weak.
Kron lay down in bed and looked at her.
"Happy?"
Blake chuckled.
"Only as long as you don't try anything stupid now."
The Saiyan sighed looking up bored.
"Kron listen, I'm going to be gone for a few days so I won't be able to visit, try to stay and rest ok?"
"Do what you want," Kron replied. "What exactly are you doing."
Blake sighed and hesitantly spoke.
"When you took Adam and sent his partner running, it left the White Fang disorganized and in chaos," Blake explained. "Ozpin asked me if I can help find and capture any of the White Fang that are still in the city. I'm going to ask my team to help me too, so you might not get any visitors, hope that's ok."
"Tch" Kron was annoyed hearing that. "Never asked you to be here in the first place."
Blake chuckled hearing that knowing that he liked having people to talk to.
Kron remembered something back at the docks, that look she gave, he turned to face her.
"One more thing." Kron hesitated before saying. "The next time Kali asks to see me, tell her about the blood saw, ask her if she wants to see me knowing I still go for the kill."
Blake remembered two nights ago when Kron was covered in blood that wasn't his own and how he openly admitted that he did. She admit, that she hated the sight, it was like when she had seen Adam kill for the first time, the time she had decided to leave the White Fang for good.
Her urge was to run, to not involve herself with Kron.
But then she remembered why he did it and responded.
"Ok, but I'll also tell her about how you protected me."
Kron growled hearing that.
Blake ignored his growling and spoke.
"Also I know why you did it, don't think I didn't notice what you said to Goodwitch." She said that name with a bit of venom.
The Saiyan looked at her confused.
"You said he exposed a weakness, me, and my mom and you didn't want others to know about it," Blake explained. "You killed him because you didn't want him to tell anyone who wants to hunt you down to know your connection to my family, to protect us."
Kron said looking at her and scoffing.
"What you're saying now I have an excuse to kill?" Kron asked.
"Not an excuse," Blake replied. "Honestly I don't know if it was right to kill him but I know that he would have hurt more people since he was helping that Cinder woman plotting to destroy Vale, not to mention maybe you were right that word would spread about your connection to my family, I think it was more self-defense than anything Kron."
Such a stubborn woman, what happened to the brat that ran and hid behind her mother?
"Whatever, don't expect me to see Kali, I'm still planning to make sure I don't."
He couldn't, he already felt weak being around Blake, and he didn't want to feel that way being around Kali too. His Saiyan blood disliked the feeling.
"I'm not asking you, to, I know you will," Blake replied smiling. "Whenever you're ready she's waiting at Menagerie, just see her, at your own pace, I won't tell you to go see her. I know you will."
Not after he gets his spaceship ready. Once he's done with training Yang and finally gone through with his revenge against Raven, he'll leave, find new challenges, learn all of Remnant's remaining history, and then get his spaceship working. Find a new planet to learn about and train in while avoiding the Frieza Force.
And then he'll repeat the cycle, going from planet to planet learning and growing stronger.
Maybe one day he'll be strong enough to fight low-class soldiers. Wouldn't that be the day?
"We'll see about that," Kron replied and smelt someone coming for the door and looked.
Just as he did his infirmary room opened.
Blake turned as well and was surprised to see who came through the door.
It was Weiss stepping into the room and walked over to Kron.
The Saiyan rose an eyebrow wondering what she was doing here.
She turned to Blake.
"Blake, Ruby, and Yang say they'll be ready to take on the mission, Ozpin gave us some locations to track down the White Fang."
Blake nodded her head. "Thank you, I'll head out in a few, you can get ready as well." She expected her to leave but instead, Weiss walked closer to Kron. "Um, Weiss?" She asked wondering what she was going to say to him.
She stood on the other side of Kron's bed where his tail can be seen hanging at the edge of the bed and looked up at Weiss wondering what she was going to say.
Weiss fought the urge to glare at him, she feels like she did it, she did save her life after all, but she still despised what he did to her sister. "I came here to ask, why did you attack my sister?"
Blake prepped herself to calm down Weiss in case Kron tries to upset her like he does with every other person.
Kron looked at the Schnee heiress and thought of something he was curious about. He remembered the last exhibit he was in in the museum he visited in Atlas. He'll tell her why he attacked her but first, he wanted to know one thing.
"I'll tell you if you tell me about your grandfather."
Weiss was surprised to hear that.
"My grandfather?" She asked. "I never thought I'd hear a Faunus interested in learning about my family."
The Saiyan shrugged his shoulders.
"I have a thing for history, so tell me about your grandfather and I'll tell you why I picked a fight with your sister."
Weiss was surprised to hear that but smiled pleased to talk about the good in her family, especially after learning about her family's true dark history. She knew her grandfather couldn't have been as cruel as her company in those days they had a better relationship with the Faunus.
"My grandfather was a man who believed that strength is useless without any knowledge," Weiss explained proudly. "He was a hard worker spending his days at combat school, nights working alongside his father in the Mantle mines and learning everything about what he didn't know.
Kron agreed with that, it sounded like himself actually.
"He left behind a journal describing his life, over the course of his life he fought for his workers and protected everyone from even the strongest Grimm." She said. "He was clearly the best CEO of the SDC, better than my father no doubt." She said with a frown thinking of him.
Blake was saddened hearing her say that, she felt bad telling her the truth but it was for her own good, seeing Adam's scar had opened her eyes to the evils of the SDC and she knows she'll be better for it in the future.
Kron was satisfied hearing this, it felt nice knowing about a figure like Nicholas, maybe he can find a way to get that journal he left behind or at least a copy of it.
"Now tell me why did you attack my sister?" Weiss asked.
Blake prayed he wouldn't start anything.
Kron of course answered honestly and shrugged.
"I just wanted a fight, that's all."
Blake face palmed hearing that and got ready to calm them down so it wouldn't escalate.
Weiss heard that and her eyebrow twitched. Ever since her conversation with Blake realizing that her family were not the victims she thought they were she thought that maybe there was a motive behind what Kron had done that there was some misunderstanding with what her family had done to him and that she could clear it up if it was misinformed.
Or even apologize if it had something to do with what her family did to him.
"What? You just wanted a fight?"
Blake stood up and tried to keep the conversation from escalating. "Weiss, easy." She glared at Kron.
But it didn't make him stop and keep speaking. "Yeah, I wanted to fight someone strong and your sister offered to fight me, what's wrong with that Discount Winter?"
Weiss bit her tongue and calmed down.
"So you ambushed my sister, just because you wanted a fight?"
Kron looked offended at that.
"Ambush?" He then remembered the damn newspaper that Atlas's paper printed out. "Oh, right, your nation's media lied, I didn't ambush anyone I attracted their attention at the new museum, I beat down the Ace Ops and then your sister came out of nowhere and challenged me." He smirked bragging about his accomplishments.
"What it was a lie?" Weiss asked. "Why?" It couldn't be true, but then again how long ago did she view the White Fang as nothing but delinquents that caused destruction for the sake of it? She's been lied to all her life, what if this was a lie to?
Kron continued and answered. "My guess is, your daddy paid the news off to make it seem like I was a coward and Real Winter was a victim."
Weiss growled hearing the "Real Winter" comment, she knew that wasn't true. Her father practically disowned Winter after she joined the military and wouldn't do anything to make her look good. If what he said was true then the Atlesian government likely didn't want to make their military look weak.
"I doubt that's the case, you couldn't have beaten the Ace Operatives and Winter right after, there's no way." Weiss declared.
Kron chuckled.
"You sure love being in denial don't you Discount Winter."
Blake sighed as she watched them argue, it was like she wasn't even there.
"Don't call me that!"
"Ok, how about Winter Wannabe?" Kron laughed seeing her get so angry that she was turning red. "You like that one better? It's a nice alliteration."
"Don't call me that either, my name is Weiss! Weiss Schnee!" She yelled back.
Kron kept laughing clearly entertained by the heiress's anger and held up three fingers and squeezed.
"I'll stop calling you that when it takes more than three fingers to beat you." He reminded her of the Taijitu Tai Bite Grip, the move he used to knock her out.
Weiss growled and slapped his shoulder.
"Gah!" He yelled grabbing his shoulder and chuckling seeing her still angry.
Weiss then stomped off before she left she looked at Blake.
"Ruby and Yang will be ready in a few minutes, make haste so you can help us stop what's left of the White Fang." She then glared at Kron who was rubbing his shoulder and gave a look that most would be afraid of.
Kron only laughed as she slammed the door closed.
He supposes being here wasn't too bad after all, it's kinda fun seeing how easily tweaked these humans can get.
Blake watched her and looked at Kron. "Just so you know you had that coming."
Kron chuckled as she walked away, funny he can't tell who he enjoys seeing angry her or Yang, both are amusing when they're enraged.
"She makes it too easy." He said chuckling.
Blake sighed, some things never change.
"Anyway you heard her, by the way, you gonna be ok? Yang offered to bodyguard you in case Glynda shows up."
"Ugh, I'll be fine, do what you want, I don't need protection."
Blake nodded. "Ok, get well soon, I'll see you in a few days." She was about to walk out the door.
Kron wasn't going to say anything but he thought everything that happened and decided to do one thing he wasn't so good at.
"Blake"
The Cat Faunus turned to the boy.
Kron sighed not used to doing this but after it was said to him so many times he had to say.
"Thank you," He said in an annoyed tone. "You tried to stop Goodwithc from finishing me, thank you for that."
Blake was surprised to hear that, she hadn't heard him once say that since their reunion, it was almost as shocking when he apologized. She smiled and replied. "I always have your back, Kron, just like you have mine." She smiled as she walked out the door.
Kron said nothing and stared back at the ceiling.
He truly has fallen from the bloodthirsty warrior he once was.
In his younger days, he'd probably be very disappointed with how he turned out.
Oh well, at least he no longer wants to serve in the Saiyan army, so that's gotta be a plus.
Now if only he can kill time while he was recovering.
1 Hour later
Kron was starting to miss his visitors, now he had no one to talk to and nothing to do.
Another reason to hate Bertilak, he made him have to sit in the same room with nothing to do.
Just then the door opened again.
Curiously he turned to see someone walking in.
This time it wasn't anyone from Blake's team.
It was the headmaster.
Ozpin walked in carrying three books.
"Hello Kron, been meeting to visit again but I had gotten held up." He explained.
Kron was actually glad he had someone else to talk to but didn't show.
"I didn't ask you to."
Ozpin only kept his smile and placed three books he had never seen before.
"I got you three new books as a thank-you gift for saving my students and a get-well present, I hope they can help entertain you as you recover."
Finally, something to do.
"Good, I've been bored for a while just resting."
"I'm glad to be of help." Ozpin smiled. "Tell me, have you enjoyed yourself during the deal?"
Kron thought of it and how he was making Yang stronger, and how he felt like he was making amends with Blake.
"I have, I've enjoyed making her grow stronger," Kron explained. "I should have thought of this years ago, if I can't find a worthy opponent I train one."
"Happy to hear, it seems as though you and Miss Belladonna are starting to act like family."
Kron remembered how Kali had said she wanted him to join their family.
"And you and Miss Xiao Long seem to be getting on, I see a budding friendship rising from you two."
"Pft, we're not, we're using each other." Kron countered. "She gets stronger, I get an opponent, it's just a transaction."
Ozpin heard that and can see how he's denying the bond that is growing between the two.
"There's nothing wrong with having friends Kron, in time I'm sure you'll learn that."
"Pfft" Freinds, he didn't need them, the strong do not need them. But as much as he hated to admit it, there were some appealing things he found in the blonde. Which is strange given his hate for her mother. The time he spent with her makes him forget they were mother and daughter.
But either way, they were not friends, just making a deal, nothing more.
Ozpin decided that it was time to change the subject and go forward with his plan. "Before I go, there's one more thing I wanted to show you, something to watch."
Kron looked at Ozpin and tilted his head.
"What would be interesting for me to watch, I'm more of a book guy Ozpin."
"I think you'll find this intriguing." He aimed his remote at a monitor that appeared in front of the med bed he was resting in.
"This video I've gotten my hands on is a recording of a huntsman team that graduated long ago, called Team STRQ."
"Ok, why should I care?" Kron wasn't interested in learning about some random team.
Ozpin kept his smile, he needed him to see this, to clear up a misunderstanding for when he meets a certain person again.
"Raven is the R in Team STRQ."
Kron's eyes widened upon hearing that.
"What? Raven? You recorded her team?
Ozpin was happy to see he had gotten his interest.
"Of course, they were students at my academy, it isn't strange that I record their training sessions is it?"
Kron heard that and thought of that, Raven's team. She never said a word about her team in Beacon only that she trained there. She never talked much about her past.
Maybe now he can sate his curiosity before killing her.
"Show me." Kron didn't have much else to do.
The video plays showing two women and two men.
Ozpin pointed at the woman in the white hood. "That is Summer Rose, STRQ's leader and Ruby's mother, and the woman who raised Yang."
Kron looked at the woman and noted how much alike she looked like the Tail Biter.
He then pointed at the blonde man with short hair.
"That is Taiyang Xiao-Long, Ruby and Yang's father."
The Saiyan can see that, Yang did take after her father's hair color definitely, and from the look of his build he seemed to be a warrior who uses his fists. So that's who she learned it from.
"And of course, you've already met Yang's biological mother, Raven."
Raven looked younger, her hair in a ponytail, and seemed to be Yang's current age.
"Tch" Kron squeezed his fists looking at the worthless hag.
Ozpin said nothing expecting that reaction now to clear up the misunderstanding.
"And this is, her twin brother Qrow Branwen."
It showed a young man with black trills in front of his forehead holding a long sword over his shoulder.
"So both siblings were on the same team?" Kron asked. "Heh, I can see how this ends, let me guess the Brawnwen Siblings stab their members in the back when it's convenient."
Ozpin had a serious face and explained.
"Raven did leave of her own accord, however, Qrow proved more loyal than his sister, just watch this is their initiation."
Kron didn't believe that remembering how he was trying to trick him using that damn Semblance of his to sneak attack him.
Qrow and Taiyang had met and were walking through the Emerald Forest.
Just then a tree fell and was about to land behind the blonde Taiyang.
"Knew it," Kron said eying that, he was using his Semblance.
Taiyang punched the falling tree snapping it in half.
"Impressive, you already can tell he's using his Semblance any idea what it's called."
Kron thought of it remembering how he made mistakes when they met and how the environment itself seemed to be against him.
"Surrounding Control?" He didn't know how else to describe how much he tripped or random Dust crystals falling on him.
"No, his Semblance is called Misfortune, causes Bad Luck wherever he goes."
That makes sense but at the same time, Kron was skeptical hearing that. Luck? That's a Semblance? Strange, but he guessed that anything could be a Semblance.
"His Semblance is useful against enemies, however, it does have its problems."
"Like what?" Kron asked.
Ozpin pointed at the screen.
The video showed several things throughout the video. Swarms of lancers arriving and try to attack both Qrow and Taiyang.
As Kron watched he was confused, what does he gain from luring those insects to attack him as well as his partner? Isn't he plotting to attack him in the back?
Then all of Team STRQ were united and gathered four poker cards that were called relics.
The mountain that was overlooking them started a rockslide that was going to crush the four of them.
Qrow immediately pushed Taiyang forcing him to get away and was about to be crushed by the rubble.
"What?" Kron was confused, what was he doing? What did he have to gain with this, is he trying to gain their loyalty like Raven did?
The woman Summer grabbed him and took him away from the rockslide with quick speed.
Of the four of them Raven was caught in it, her leg was put under a rock.
Why would he use his Semblance on Raven? Were they not working together by then?
"Why doesn't he turn off his Semblance?" Kron asked looking at Ozpin. "Clearly, he's using it, but why, he's losing more than he's gaining."
Good, he was confused, now it was time to drive it home and put an end to that misunderstanding.
"He can't, his Semblance is always active whether he likes it or not."
Kron was silent for a few seconds. "By then right? He's learned it now hasn't he?"
Ozpin knew not to lie so he explained as best he could.
"Qrow was sent on a mission a few months ago, when he returned he mentioned his Semblance had led to a failure," Ozpin replied. "His Semblance for the longest time was out of control, the only way he could learn to turn it off and on, he had to undergo the same training regime Glynda has, months ago he had no control over his Semblance."
Kron looked shocked hearing that, it sounded ridiculous. But he knows that Glynda was stronger than any normal huntsman can get. So he couldn't deny that it was definitely possible.
He looked at the video and watched Team STRQ fight as Qrow's Semblance took them to trouble again and again.
Their first encounter came to mind.
This man genuinely was going to help him find Raven, he misunderstood his Semblance which lead him to jump to conclusions.
He thought of Ruby and how she had thanked him and given him those sweets.
She wasn't going to poison him, he found that out just by eating them.
And she definitely cares for Qrow.
Her sister likely did as well.
Yang, he had expected her to be a copy of Raven but proved to be a true warrior. Almost like a Saiyan, someone who can be a true warrior in the future. And as strange as it is, he formed some kind of attachment to her. He enjoyed her being around for some reason, she can be annoying but amusing too. And she cared for him in some way wanting to keep Glynda off his back. He hated that she wanted to do that but, she cared for him. And somehow he ended up feeling something for her too.
And he almost killed their uncle. Because he was stupid enough to assume again. He was only saved by his Semblance.
Just like Menagarie, he screwed up!
Kron looked down and growled at himself for allowing his impulse to get the better of him. He should have taken up Qrow's offer he was genuine with the deal he offered him.
Ozpin looked at Kron and had a frown. He felt terrible showing this to him, but he seemed to have been successful, he feels guilty for what he almost did to. Good, now in the likelihood they'll meet again, he won't go ballistic.
This guilt will take him in the right direction as he had planned with Blake.
Hopefully.
Dr. Merlot's Island
Eclipse is sitting and looking through a book surrounded by what looked like his drawings.
It was a children's book about friends.
He sees two children playing games, like tag, hide and seek, and wrestling.
Eclipse made a noise while touching the picture in the book.
His enhanced hearing picked up on the little girl's friend that was screaming with the shiny rocks in her body.
"Mercury, I'm serious we need to talk to to Salem, Cinder's in a lot of pain."
"No way, we already screwed up once, I'm not going to do anything that she might punish me for."
"But Mercury, Cinder she's in a lot of pain can't you hear?"
Eclipse can hear the green-haired girl shouting upset at her friend getting in pain.
Friend.
Eclipse looked at the picture book showing children playing together.
Did he have friends?
He did have his dad. But no, fathers are supposed to love their children that was normal.
He thought of the huntsmen he played with wherever he went.
No, they're not his friends either. Their toys, and always break so easily. Friends are supposed to play with you, not be played.
He thought of the birdman. He was so strong he had to retreat, and he was fun to fight. But he has a dumb Semblance that helps him cheat.
No friends aren't supposed to cheat when playing, he's not a friend, he's a cheater. And when he finds him, he'll make sure he can never cheat again.
Eclipse imagined what kind of person would be his friend.
Someone who can fight, someone who wants to play with him, not the huntsmen he plays with. But someone who doesn't break like the toys he breaks. Someone who isn't afraid to fight until the other is dead or not moving. Someone who doesn't need people's help to fight him just by themselves.
Eclipse made a noise, indicating that he was daydreaming of this friend he was envisioning.
Maybe someday he will find this perfect friend, and when he does he will play with them forever.
Just then the door to his chamber opened.
Eclipse bowed knowing who came to see him.
Salem's Seer floated in front of him.
"Hello Eclipse, how are you, still recovering?"
Eclipse nodded and made a noise.
He was still hurting all over, if he picked a fight with the birdman now he would probably be destroyed.
But at the same time, he can feel it, his body was getting stronger, his spikes growing sharper.
His body will heal soon and grow stronger.
"Very good, be ready I already have decided your next mission," Salem said smiling. "This next one will be crucial, what you will do is.."
Eclipse's green smile formed upon hearing the mission, this will be the most fun he ever had!
Kron just like the Menagarie incident feels guilt for his actions once again. How will he respond?
And what is Eclipse's next mission? Just what mayhem can he cause next?
Find out here on One's Own path!
For those of you wanting an action chapter, don't worry the next couple will only have action, I hope u look forward to it.
And I hope u enjoyed this chapter as well, it was about time for Kron to realize he made major mistake with Qrow kinda like the Menagarie incident.
Hopefully like Ozpin his planning, he can learn from this and be better like Blake wants.
And Eclipse really wants to find that perfect friend. He maybe a mutant monster, but mutant monsters need friends to.
Well not much else to say except hope u liked the chapter.
Review Responces
Halo 69: Lol, omg, Remnant would not have problems for a long time. Not sure how Ozpin would respond to that, guess he would just do his best to really stick to his good side.
Maybe, there's a lot fo things to do to wrap up this arc, but well see, I put some thought in her extra Semblances, I hope you'll like them.
ThatSaiyaguy:Thank u. Hope this chapter wasn't so bad as well, I'm not sure how I feel about my non action chapters, I try to make em worth a read but I do enjoy writing my fight scenes hope u enjoyed this one as well and it didn't feel like a repeat.
Hopefully they can Ozpin didn't get to figure that out the last time he tried it, they'll have to figure it out now.
Kron always thinks of the Menagarie incident, it's what keeps him from doing the worse and ultimately lead to him abandoning his original goal. So ya he would definitely be forced to see that fight again, plus his childhood on Planet Vegeta sucked to so that to.
The question is how would Kron behave, would he make even more assumptions than he usually did or would he just stop thinking for himself thinking he'll do something he'll hate if he tries. Tough call.
Maybe we'll see what happens one day, first Ozpin would have to trust that Kron would not abuse his power if the Void Vault could help him. He may see good in him now, but it's best not to increase his power too much, just in case.
As for Kron and Eclipse, I am looking forward to writing their first meeting and fight. All I will say is we will definitely see them go at it before the end of this saga/volume.
We might see Ironwood again, I feel like Ozpin would make sure he doesn't know about his deal with Kron, because Ironwood might send his army early or a team of Crusader Armor users to deal with him, so yeah Ozpin is going to make sure Ironwood doesn't know, at least until they benefit from the deal they had, he wouldn't want the general to ruin the progress Kron has made in his change.
As for Sepia, well her Semblance is really valuable, so the general is likely trying to have the Crusader Armor be 100% safe for her to use, he almost died using it.
Good thought with the Soul exchanging machine, maybe it can help, but they already have the answer. Eclipse is a really effective problem solver.
Moon Knight huh, ooh, I might have an idea in the future, never thought of that, good idea.
Hope u enjoyed these RWBY interactions and as for JNPR, I think I can work them in before the end of this season, it ended up being longer than planned lol, I hope i don't make it drag out if i haven't already.
Thank u hope u enjoyed this one.
keybladelight: I will do my best. :)
Eddyg125: Lol, it'd be interesting that's for sure. And also thank you.
Ruenion: I just thought it was possible she might not have Aura, we don't know if the first generation had Aura or not since they all had magic, and humanity was said to evolve from Dust and Dust wasn't a thing in their time so I thought it'd be a good way to world build. I even looked up if Salem had Aura nothing she does, it could be that she can't use it since she's become part Grimm, maybe the show will explain it later. As for Kron, well I won't say it's impossible to give Kron Aura like u said in your PM, I'm not sure I wanna do that since he kinda already has genetic advantages already. I'll think about it, right now I'm not so sure I wanna do that because I wanted to give Faunus and Humans in this story their own genetic advantages. But we'll see.
Bear295: Thank you, lol I hope she would be.
Ooh, jack the Ripper nice, writing that down.
Perfect fighting clones of Blake, funny enough that's what I've been thinking.
Lol, damn Fu, he's got some good but crazy ideas.
Appreciate the ideas hope u liked the chapter.
Lelouch of Zero: Lol Eclipse is still kind of a toddler so he doesn't understand what's triggering yet. And ya Cinder absolutely would have attacked if she found that out. Thank u that's what I was going for.
Yep hopefully they can figure out how to set them free.
Blake has seen how to take care of Kron, just let him know that he's being an idiot for making his inuries worse and he'll behave.
And that's another reason why Ozpin did not want Qrow and Taiyang to learn of their deal yet.
And thank you hope u liked this one to.
ZamasuAutonomous: Thank u.
Yep and Eclipse is only going to get stronger. We'll see Salem is already planning to send him somewhere. But they will definitely fight before the end of the volume, hope u look forward to it.
Lol, can't blame u for that, well if Cinder keeps threatening Merlot she probably will. It's like the Kali or Blake button. Don't push it, or bad things happen. Look at Bertilak with that hole in his chest.
Hope u enjoyed this one.
triscythe59: I will but not anytime soon, hope u can enjoy the long ride.
So to most of the guests you'll notice I'm responding to your reviews within your reviews, I decided to do that to save time in my review responses, hope that's ok, it's less work for me that way.
Anyway, hope to see u guys in the next chapter.
Have an awesome day!
