Days Under House Arrest

(Y/n) POV

Because of the damage I caused in Vale, Professor's Ozpin and Goodwitch put me under house arrest until things calm down and Ozpin can figure out what to do with me. Blake was naturally worried, but not as worried as I was expecting, she is also distracted by the fact that Roman managed to get away again and the need to find the White Fang's secret base. So, I'm left to take care of Todd most of the time because of both our situations, but Todd misses his Mommy, but there's really nothing I can do at the moment since I'm stuck in my dorm room.

Ava: *walks in* Hey, (Y/n).

(Y/n): Hey.

Tony: We've got your assignments from class today.

(Y/n): *sigh* Thanks.

Ava: You okay?

(Y/n): .... Well, I destroyed nearly a quarter of the city and hurt a lot of people, so no, I'm not okay.

Tony: We know this wasn't your fault, you can't control yourself when you get like that. Plus, I think I caused just as much damage as you.

(Y/n): But no one sees you as a monster.

Ava: Who said you were- *growls* Cardin. I'm going to kill him one of these days.

(Y/n): *depressed* He's right though, I am a monster. Maybe I'm too dangerous to be around anyone, I-

Rocket: Ah, shut up! You are just fine the way you are!

Ava: Rocket's right. You're perfect just the way you are.

Tony: Yeah, we wouldn't be friends if we thought you were a monster.

Todd: *concerned cooing*

Ava: We'll watch Todd while you work, okay.

(Y/n): *sniffles* Yeah.

I hand Todd over to Ava and both she and Tony leave, but Rocket remains behind.

(Y/n): What is it, Rocket?

Rocket: You need to get out of the dorm for a bit. *thinks* Oh! I know something we can do tonight.

(Y/n): Sorry, I gotta finish the assignments and watch Todd tonight, again.

Rocket: Ava can watch the kid, we're having fun tonight. Just wait and see.

Rocket then left before I had a chance to respond, I guess I've gotta go with, otherwise he might blow me up in my sleep.

Timeskip Late that Night

(Y/n): *whispers* Rocket! I'm not doing this.

Rocket: *whispers* Oh, come on. You'll love it. Hehehe. Cow tipping's fun.

(Y/n): This is ridiculous.

Rocket has snuck me out for a spot of cow tipping in some rancher's field. This is gonna end so badly.

Rocket: Okay. When I say "go". We go, but don't let Frank catch ya. Go!

(Y/n): Huh? Wait, wh-wh-who's Frank?!

Rocket runs down and jumps the fence to the cow field.

(Y/n): *hushed* Wait, Rocket!

Against my better judgement, I follow Rocket down into the field and catch up to him.

Rocket: 'Kay, here's what you do. You just sneak up to their side and flip them onto their back, *chuckles* and they do the rest. Just avoid any pregnant ones. Watch this.

Rocket sneaks up to a sleeping cow and as he stands next to it, he pushes the cow over and it flips over onto it's back, the cow freaks out a bit before passing out asleep again and then it releases a loud fart for added amusement for Rocket.

Rocket: *laughs* Ah, I swear, cows is so dumb. I tell you what, it don't get much better than this.

(Y/n): *deadpanned* Yup, your living the dream, buddy.

Rocket then sneaks up to another cow and repeats the process, he stands next to me again and taps my arm just as the cow farts.

Rocket: *laughs harder* I don't care who you are, that's funny shit right there! *exhales* Your turn, bud.

(Y/n): *nervous* I-I-I don't think this is a good idea.

Rocket: *mocking* Baby.

(Y/n): *slightly offended* I'm not a baby.

Rocket: Bawk, bawk bawk bawk. Bawk. Boop-

(Y/n): Stop! Stop! Okay, alright, I'll try.

I manage to sneak up on the bighest cow on the field, I look back at Rocket nervously, to which he responds by gesturing, "Well?". I take a deep breath and effortlessly tip the cow over.

Cow: *loud* MOOO!

This causes the other cows to suddenly wake up and fall over due to the sudden scare, then, almost simultaneously, all the cows fart. Rocket and I look back at each other after the last one farted and we both break out laughing pretty hard.

????: *angry bellow*

We look where the sound came from and Rocket grows a tad scared, and says-

Rocket: That's Frank. *runs away*

Suddenly, a huge bull comes over the hill, sees me and bellows at me.

(Y/n): Ahhh!

I too turn and run just as Frank starts to charge, I manage to catch up to Rocket who is laughing the whole time.

Rocket: *laughs* Run! *laughs some more*

We suddenly make a sharp left and run along the fence line with Frank still on our tail.

Rocket: Here he comes! Look out!

Frank: *bellows*

I can tell Frank is catching up to me as we near the perpendicular fence line.

Rocket: Ah! He's gonna get ya! *laughs*

I smash through the fencing and Rocket follows, but Frank stops his charge and simply roars at us before we take off back down the road with Rocket still laughing. Even when we climbed back up to Beacon, Rocket was still laughing about the whole ordeal, and honestly, I was too, on the inside.

Rocket: Tomorrow night, we can go looking for the Ghostlight.

(Y/n): *feigning enthusiasum* I can't wait.

Rocket: Oh boy. You gotta admit, that was fuuu-un.

(Y/n): Oh yeah. Yeah.

Rocket: Well, we better get back to bed, Bestie. Before Goodwitch has a cow of her own.

(Y/n): What did you call me?

Rocket: Yeah, I said it. Don't wear it out!

I'm actually kinda touched that someone like Rocket would consider me their best friend. I manage to sleep a bit more soundly because of this, but Blake's behaviour is worrying me still.

Timeskip 1 Week Later

I am still under house arrest, right now, I am watching Todd as he naps, because there's nothing else to do, when Tony walks in.

Tony: Geez, you look bored.

(Y/n): Oh really? You don't say. *sigh* Sorry.

Tony: That's okay. So, I know it's a touchy subject for you, but how come you are so scared of interacting with people?

(Y/n): *pretends* I..... can't remember. One day, I'm working in the medical tent, the next, I find interacting with others difficult and scary beyond belief. *genuine* Blake's been the only one to draw me out of my shell.

Tony: I know people are hard to deal with, but there's no reason to fear interacting with your friends. *thinks for a moment* I think I've got something I could use your help with.

(Y/n): I can't leave, I'm under house arrest remember?

Tony: I know, but your going all cabin fever in here, even with your son with you. Bring him along if you're worried about leaving him here.

(Y/n): I-I don't know.

Tony: Come on, or Todd and I are going without you.

(Y/n): Okay, fine, I'll go with.

Tony dresses into some work clothes, I get Todd strapped into his baby carrier when he wakes up, and I follow Tony out of the school. Tony made sure to avoid all the teachers and students and led me back to the part of Vale where I apparently lost control and Tony had to subdue me.

(Y/n): *sad sigh* Why are we here?

Tony: To help rebuild some of these buildings we destroyed. Honestly, I feel just as guilty as you do about what happened that night. So, I've been coming out everyday when I get a chance to help rebuild and clear debris.

(Y/n): *looks at various scared or digusted gazes* At least you don't have to fear being ridiculed.

Tony: Are you kidding?! Many people, especially the Faunus of the White Fang, hate me and my family because we supply weapons to the Atlas Military. But despite what the White Fang thinks of us, I ensure that our employee's are paid the same as human workers and scientists, but the White Fang are still an everlasting presence on the front porch of my families company. I get comments like Merchant of Death thrown at me a lot.

(Y/n): Sorry.

Tony: Bah, you've got nothing to feel ashamed about, I am just as responsible for what happened here as you, but I can't afford to let that get me down, because people need a Huntsman's help, and that's what I'm here for. Now come on, let's get to work.

Tony asks me to lift a certain piece of heavy rubble for him while he removed other smaller debris and potential valuables. This goes on all day until we hear worried voices.

Biker: Hey! We have some kids and their dog under here! We need help!

Tony: (Y/n) lift the big slab of building will you, I'll grab the kids.

(Y/n): Right.

I set Todd in his carrier nearby, but still close enough where I can see him, I then approach Tony and he points out where to place my hands before lifting the 3 ton slab of concrete and steel rods over my head.

Tony: *goes in* Easy kids, it's going to be alright.

Girl: What about Sally?!

Tony: Sally? Sally, come!

Sally: *barks and climbs out of rubble*

Tony: Okay..... *checks rubble* and clear!

(Y/n): *grunt of exertion*

I set the slab back down and catch my breath as I recover from the workout.

Biker: Thanks you two. You guys aren't like the news says.

Tony: Just make sure these youngsters are okay and we'll call it even.

Biker 2: You've got a deal.

Tony: *turns to me* See? Told ya.

(Y/n): Yeah, I suppose one good act can make a difference.

Tony: Couldn't have said it better myself, buddy.

Todd: *squeals in fright*

(Y/n): *turns around* Todd!

Tony: Go! I'll cut them off!

I barely listened and immediately forgot how tired I was and sprinted after the kidnapper. Todd kept on screaming for help, which helped me keep up until Tony, in his armor, landed in front of the kidnapper, who turned out to be a human woman.

Woman: Thank goodness, Iron Man, stop that Faunus from trying to steal my baby!

(Y/n): Are you nuts?! That's my son, you stole you crazy woman!

Tony simply walked up and took Todd away from the woman and handed him back to me.

Woman: What are you doing?! A monster like that doesn't deserve a child.

The woman starts to walk towards me when Tony gets between us and flares his armor flaps and shows off all his weapons pointed at her.

Tony: This man is my best friend! He worked harder than most to try and become a Huntsman to help make the world a safer place for his family! Can you say you'd do the same?

The woman looked terrified and honestly, I was terrified, I'd never seen Tony this upset before.

Tony: Walk away. Now.

The woman gives in and runs away, Tony powers down his weapons and his armor returns to normal and turns to me while I try to calm Todd down by holding him close to me.

(Y/n): *nervous* Thank you, Tony.

Tony: We all make mistakes. What's matter's is how we choose to move forward from it. I still maintain that you are my best friend and I'll always try to be there for you and the rest of our friends, I promise.

(Y/n): *voice breaks* Thank you, friend.

Tony and I go back to Beacon without incident and while I tried to tell Blake about what happened, she blew me off and qent back to work, which made Todd and I really sad.

(A/N): And Cut! Great take! Take lunch from the trucks outside and we'll get back to it.

Sorry, to all of my lovely readers, for my tardiness! I am still re watching Fairy Tail and toying with a character concept for my Cinder x Child reader. I will try to post at least one chapter per week. I thank you all for your undying patience from the bottom of my heart.

I wish you all a wonderful day/night and I'll see you all in the next one. PEACE OUT!!!
