Confrontation with Emptiness
After the display at Goodwitch's class, no one was coming near Zenzo and disliked him for a reason, the only one that didn't was Neliel, she understood but was shook and Aizen himself was kinda proud of him being able to face his past and get past it, but the torture was a little too overkill.
Everyone thought he was a bad person since he did so, they just thought it was just to put fear in them but it was more than anyone could think; it was a vendetta, a grudge, that he has with the Xia Long part of the family along with a Branwen; Tai wasn't enthusiastic but he had to apologize, Raven didn't even care that much but she just had to and then urge him to join her tribe, Summer wanted her child back, Qrow was there to see what happens and introduce himself as the cool uncle.
"Yes sir, he's back to himself" Neliel said.
"Good, but I'll be coming over to have a chat with Ozpin later" Aizen said.
"Yes sir" Neliel said as Aizen cuts the call.
Neliel flops on the bed, tired from just constantly being on the phone with Aizen who questioned her about Zenzo's current condition.
"God! I'm so tired" Neliel groaned as she started to let her mind wonder, then it ended up with Zenzo and Yang.
"I remember when they brought Zenzo over, he was weak and fragile like a baby, Aizen told us to train him but he didn't tell us where and why he was there, he reminded me of Ulquiorra a lot and it was a shocker when we'd linked his DNA to Ulquiorra and Orihime, he was just like his father; I know I love him, he's always in my heart, mind and soul, but how can love him when I don't know his origin story" Neliel thought.
"I just wanna know about my love" Neliel said slowly falling asleep.
Meanwhile.......
Zenzo was walking around the campus, looking at the rooms that contains teachers, students, workers and equipments; walking a little long to come across a room full of musical instruments, violins, guitars, trumpets, you name it its there, but in the only one instrument that was classic and old was a grand piano covered by a large piece of white cloth sitting in the middle of the room.
He walks over to it, taking off the cloth and looking at it with some interest but not showing it on the outside, he then dusts off the chair/stool and takes a sit on it, lifting the lid covering the piano keys and touching each one to get the feeling of the instrument.
"It's been a while Aizen's let me play this, let's see if I can still play" Zenzo said as Weiss, Blake, Ruby and team JNPR were passing by, they were talking about Zenzo's behavior which Ruby refused to answer any of their questions, Pyrrha sees him and stops in her tracks everyone sees this and look at what they were looking at, they just saw him.
"What is he doing?" Ruby asked.
"It looks like he wants to play" Nora said.
"Oh please, he broke Yang, there's no way he can even play a note on the piano" Weiss said.
Just then he starts and they were stunned at how he played the instrument, how smooth and fast his hands moved.
(Play this song)
Zenzo then covers the piano keys with the lid, gets up and covers the piano, taking in a deep breath and then out.
"I know your there, I know you've been there the whole time" Zenzo said as they just come out.
"That was good, but not excellent" Weiss said.
"So much big talk, let's see you do that Weiss" Blake said as Weiss scoffs.
"I'm not in the mood right now" Weiss said.
"You know I can teach you to play if you want, but you must accept your flaws" Zenzo said.
"I have no flaws, I'm flawless as ever" Weiss said.
"Weiss, keep on telling yourself that but when I look into your eyes I can tell you things you never thought people would hear" Zenzo said.
"Who are you to tell me who I am?!" Weiss barked.
"Simply someone who knows the realities and truths about life, you've always had a silver spoon in your mouth ever since you were born" Zenzo said as Weiss was about to talk, but the speakers in the room come to life and Ozpin speaks.
"Please, may Zenzo and Ruby Rose come to my office, we have guests that want to see you" Ozpin said.
"Another time Ice queen, I'm needed somewhere else" Zenzo said as he uses Sonído to pass them, leaving them in the room soon Ruby leaves, but not without Weiss, Blake and JNPR coming along.
At Ozpin's office......
Zenzo walks in to see Aizen seated at the table with Ozpin and Neliel by his chair, along with Summer, Tai, Raven, Qrow and Yang who had her head wrapped and in an arm sling.
"Zenzo, nice to see you again" Aizen said.
"It's good to see you again father" Zenzo said bowing and then coming back up.
"I'm your father" Tai said.
"Go to hell, it'll do me a solid favour" Zenzo said as Team RWB and JNPR.
"I believe I said Ruby and Zenzo should come" Ozpin said.
"Sir, we're her teammates anything you want to tell her, you can tell us too" Weiss said.
"If you insist, but let me just tell you that you will be serving a weeks worth of detention when this is over" Ozpin said.
"On second thought, how about we just leave" Jaune said but Pyrrha grabs his collar.
"Oh no you don't, we're here to support Ruby if anything happens" Pyrrha said.
"I already have 3 days of detention, do I look like I want to have another one" Jaune said as the elevator opens for Glynda to walk in.
"Ozpin this better be good" Glynda said.
"Indeed it is lovely" Aizen said as Neliel was throwing up in her mouth.
"Ugh! What do you want?" Glynda said.
"Anyways, why do you need me here?" Zenzo asked.
"Well, it's very simple, they want you back Zenzo" Ozpin said gesturing to to the family, as Summer ran to and hugged him.
"Zenzo please come back, I want you back, ever since you left things haven't been the same" Summer said as Zenzo just pats her head.
"There, there mother Summer, it's okay, you never did anything wrong for me to hate you" Zenzo said as Summer pulls away and cleans her tears, then looking at him like something was missing.
"What happened to you bone helmet?" Summer said.
"What do you mean Summer? He's always been like that, and that's not really a helmet its like our heart or in simple words life source, shatter it completely and a hollow is good as dead" Aizen said as Tai pales.
"No, he had a full bone that covered his head, what happened to it?" Summer asked.
"I can tell you, or better yet show you" Zenzo said looking at Aizen who nods, raising right his hand to his left eye, he takes it out and holds it before everyone; Ruby had her hand over her own eye, Neliel looked away truly uncomfortable, Summer looked terrified at this, even Glynda and Ozpin were surprised by this.
"Don't worry, high-speed regeneration will regenerate my eyes in seconds" Zenzo said closing that eye, before he crushing the eye which turns into dust and flows around those within the room.
Everything was shown, the happy times, then the time when Summer left, the beating, the starvation, the slavery, the neglect, the insult, the restrictions and everything else; on the outside Aizen had a straight face but on the inside he felt pain to watch this all over again, Neliel was shocked to see all this soon the shock turns into anger and sorrow, Summer cried again from everything, Weiss decided to never judge him again, Blake and the others felt bad for the guy and same goes for Ozpin, Glynda and Qrow.
Soon it ends and the chaos begins.
"Zenzo, I'm so sorry I left for so long" Summer cried as Zenzo hugs her close, letting her cry, Zwei pulls on Zenzo's trouser so he gets picked up.
"Majestic dog" Zenzo thought holding him.
"Zenzo, I know what we did was wrong but please just give us another chance" Tai said.
"You don't look like you need it" Zenzo said looking at Raven.
"What? You expect me to apologize" Raven said as Neliel grew angry.
"Yes! You didn't even love him, you just turned a blind eye on him and if you think you can fight, I will not hesitate to put you six feet deep" Neliel said taking hold of Gamuza (Imprisoned).
"Neliel don't fight her, she's not worth your time" Zenzo said.
"Please, Weiss, Blake and team JNPR please leave, I've changed my mind about you getting detention, you all look like you need to process what you saw" Ozpin said as the mentioned leave.
"Zenzo your eye, is it okay?" Ruby asked.
"Yes, it is" Zenzo said.
"I don't have time for this" Raven said grabbing the hilt of her sword, but Qrow grabs his arm.
"Stop right there, I may an always drunk uncle but show the kid some love and he might forgive you" Qrow said.
"Qrow get your hand of me if you want to keep it" Raven said.
"I remember when Mom always ignored us, you said when I grow up I'll treat my kids with love, well your being a bitch" Qrow said as Raven just gets Qrow's hand off hers and unsheathes her sword.
"Try and stop me, I'm not weak like Yang, I will put up a fight" Raven said as Zenzo disappears and reappears disarming Raven within seconds.
"What was that about being stronger than Yang and putting up a fight, within seconds I've disarmed you and hand to hand combat is futile" Zenzo said.
"That doesn't prove anything, just because you disarmed me quick doesn't means you'd be able to win" Raven said.
"That's true, since your so smart and powerful, acting like your on code of honor......" Zenzo said grabbing Raven by the necking and lifting her off the ground.
"How about you die with that honor, after all it's what people like you do" Zenzo said choking Raven, who tries to free herself but it wasn't working and the more she tried the more her tightened his grip and the more air she lost.
"Let her go!" Tai said.
"Or what, you'll hit or slap me like you always did" Zenzo said as Tai kept quiet.
"I thought so" Zenzo said releasing Raven, letting the woman gasp for air.
"Raven Branwen, you are not strong, you are as weak as any average huntsman, you make yourself a name by killing the weak and already weakened in an attempt to make yourself seem stronger than everyone; but the truth is that your not, your weak both mentally and physically, your in ability to fight opponents stronger than you, make a truce only to stab them in the back is a sign of lack of physical strength....." Zenzo said as Raven cuts him off.
"Shut up" Race growled as Zenzo points his at her, charging a Cero.
"Let me finish, your neglect of your family after I left has shown to be a mental weakness as you make very poor choices in life, as well as your taste in strength as one of your bandits is no match for even Ruby alone; now I urge you to change your ways and if you don't, I will kill you myself" Zenzo said stopping the Cero charge.
"That was a fair warning, and as for you....." Zenzo said turning to Yang who looked down.
"Yes?" Yang asked as Zenzo places his hand on her head.
"I forgive you, you may have done those things back then but I'm sure it was Tai's influence of making it sound like training, you were younger and probably been fed some lies, besides I was being a little childish to hold such grudges" Zenzo said as Yang hugged him and cried.
"I'm so sorry, I promise to make it up to you" Yang cried.
"And as for you and your wife, you two can die and rot in hell, Hueco Mundo doesn't accept people like you two" Zenzo said as he begins to walk away, Ruby, Summer, Yang and Zwei following.
"You may follow him, I'm sure he'd like your comfort" Aizen said as Neliel bows and leaves.
"Wait for meeeee!!!" Neliel said as they open the door again and let her in.
"Zenzo, can I fly on your back when we go outside, please!!!?" Ruby asked.
"Maybe some other time" Zenzo said.
"So big bro, if you plan on training call me so I can learn, I'm sure it'll be a bang or maybe a....." Yang said.
"Don't you dare" Ruby said.
"A Yang" Yang said as the elevator is completely consumed with groans, but one chuckle as everyone looks at him.
"Funny" Zenzo said.
"Oh my God, Zenzo chuckled, it sounds so cute" Neliel said.
Meanwhile......
"I am very disappointed in you two" Ozpin said.
"But.." Tai said.
"No buts, I raised people to kind and show compassion but you two clearly lack it" Ozpin said.
"It's not like the kid needed it" Raven said.
"Now hear me and hear me well, if I see you two on Beacon property without permission, I will have you banned and if it continues, I'll have the kingdom council remove you both from Vale, understood" Ozpin said as Tai nods, but Raven scoffs.
"And little raven, if I catch you anywhere near MY son, well just know that your little tribe will be turned to rubble by Nnoitra and Grimmjow, and you know that they both don't like following the rules" Aizen said.
"Hmph!" Raven scoffed.
"Now out of my sight, there's a bullhead waiting for you both outside" Ozpin said as they left without another word.
"Now unto more pressing matters......How is she?" Aizen asked.
For those who think forgiving Yang is too early, please forgive me but I can't hate Thicc Waifu like that.
