The Next Clue
(Y/N) POV
"I remember the white man...or my brother, telling me something about Salem," I say as Indigo nods
"Yes I do too...he also mentioned Ozma...could that be another name for Ozpin?" She asks me
"I mean...it could be," I mutter
"Any clue where we could find Salem?" I ask as everyone shrugs.
"Starting from scratch again then," I mutter as my eyes land on Oscar.
He wasn't paying attention to the discussion...he was somewhere else.
"Oscar...any ideas?" I ask as he awakes
"What?" He asks
"Any ideas as to where we can find Salem?" I ask as he shrugs.
"Thinking of it...I remember Ozpin mentioning Salem when I overheard him saying something about Kelly," Indigo adds.
"Right...Mom said she was on a mission for Ozpin," Neo tells us.
"So...you think Kelly knows?" I ask as Indigo nods.
"I mean...it's our only shot...none of us know who Salem even is," She adds
"Good point," I say as I look at Neo.
"I guess we are going back to Beacon," I mutter.
"Can I come too?" A voice says...it was mother.
"I've always wanted to find your brother...and now that you're here...I don't want to leave you again...or I don't you to leave me again," she says as I struggle to maintain eye contact.
"N---" I begin
"Of course you can!" Neo says with a smile.
I look at her with a confused look.
I know what I'm doing
"Ok," I mutter as I'm about to leave
"Where are you going?" David asks
"We are going back to Beacon right?" I ask as Indigo looks at me weird
"What?" I ask
"We just flew for a couple of hours...I wanna rest," Indigo says as I look at Neo for support.
"I'm tired too, I wouldn't mind resting here for the night," Neo says...you betrayed me.
"I guess," I mutter as Mom smiles.
"If that's the case, I'll get us something to eat," she says leaving us alone.
I sat on the couch and put my head in my hands.
"It's a lot to take in," Neo says sitting beside me
"Tell me about it," I say laughing to ease my headache.
"Come on, let's leave them alone," Indigo says as the other three teens leave the room.
"What I learned today," I start sarcastically.
"I learned my Mother didn't actually hate me...instead she was manipulated by the man who tried to kill me a couple of years later,"
"Then I learn, I actually didn't put my father into prison, and he is dead,"
"And then I learn that I have a brother who was kidnapped by a person I've never even heard of!" I say as Neo listens to me.
"Busy day," she jokes as I nod
"Yeah, something like that," I mutter as she hugs me.
I gladly returned the hug as I melted into her arms.
She smelled just like vanilla ice cream...wait does vanilla ice cream even have a smell? Ok, maybe she smelled like normal vanilla then.
"It's been a long journey you and I," She whispers into my ears.
"Yeah," I laugh as I remember.
Two homeless kids beating the odds.
Now, we've reunited with our parents.
Neo can talk.
I'm saving the world.
How far we have come.
Indigo POV
Salem...Salem...Salem
Who is Salem!
I can't figure it out.
No matter where I search...I can't find a single thing on the name.
I really hope Kelly can help us out...because if not...I'm out of ideas.
I'm walking around the small town to get some fresh air.
I know my stress is nothing compared to (Y/N)s...but man is this stressful.
The world is at stake
Everyone's life depends on this...and for some reason, (Y/N) is at the centre of it all.
Are his mind-reading abilities really that significant in the future?
I stopped and sat on a bench as I brainstormed.
"Your gonna hurt your brain if you continue," Oscar says as he sits beside me.
"I've yet to do it," I point out as he laughs a little.
"Maybe...but it'll happen. Don't push yourself too hard," he says
"Noted," I mutter.
"It's pretty out here," he says changing the subject.
"It's not bad...I'm surprised the Grimm aren't a threat here,"
"With nature and a girl this beautiful...I don't see how they can be attracted to the fear," he says looking at me.
I blush a little as he realizes what he said.
"Sorry, it slipped out, I didn't mean anything by it," he says as his face is flushed with red.
I giggle a little.
"It's fine...thank you," I say looking at him.
Maybe he isn't like the rest of the guys like I thought he was
David POV
"What's for dinner?" I ask
"I'm making sandwiches...sorry if you expected something fancier...I wasn't expecting guests," (Y/N)s mother says
"It's fine, better than nothing," I say as she nods.
"(Y/N) and that multi-coloured hair girl...Neo, I think you guys said her name was...are they close?" She asks
"They are joined at the hip ma'am," I joke as she nods
"No need to be so formal, you can call me Jamie," she says as I nod
"She seemed protective of him...I like her," Jamie says
"You'd never have known she was mute up till a couple of weeks ago," I say as she looks at me
"You kidding," Jamie asks
"I'm not. That's how they got such an amazing connection...(Y/N) was the only one who could understand her...because, well he could hear what she said without her actually saying it," I tell her
"Wow," she mutters
"They look cute together," she says
