Chapter 25: Preparing For The Dance!

Last time William revealed how he was able to overthrow Ironwood and Jacques Schnee. Now with that problem out of the way, it's school dance time! Although will a certain duo need some help to realize the obvious?

Liam was currently dragging Jaune to the local tux shop as the clumsy blonde was still confused as to why Liam brought him here in the first place. "Liam, are you finally gonna tell me why we're here?" Jaune asked as he looked around the store in confusion. "Jaune if your gonna take my sister to the dance, your gonna need a tux." Liam said as he began looking through the different suits available. "E-Excuse me what?!" Jaune said as he took a step back in shock at Liam's words. "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" Liam asked as he turned to face Jaune.
"W-What makes you think I wanna ask Pyrrha to the dance?" Jaune asked in a still all to nervous tone as he looked at Liam. "Oh come on Jaune, I've seen the way you look at my sister. There's no need to hide your feelings." Liam said as he placed a tux up against Jaune's body before hanging it back up. "Shouldn't you be trying to kill me for wanting to go anywhere near your sister?" Jaune asked as he started to relax slightly. Liam turned and gave him a confused look before sitting him down on a nearby bench in the store. "Jaune, if you were Cardin, then yes I would kill you in a heartbeat." Liam said as he placed a hand on Jaune's shoulder.
Liam could still tell that Jaune seemed nervous as they sat there in silence. "Listen, Pyrrha likes you, you probably think I'm lying, but she really does." Liam said as he patted Jaune on the back to reassure him. "What if I mess it up?" Jaune asked as he still couldn't work up the nerve. "Jaune, I was the same way when I first asked Neo out! I was practically choking on my own heart is was so far up my throat!" Liam said with a laugh as he tried to calm Jaune down. Jaune still looked unsure of himself as he thought about what Liam has just told him.
Liam sighed before standing up and facing Jaune. "Jaune, just be yourself, you'll do great!" Liam said as he placed a hand on his shoulder. Jaune looked up at Liam before returning his smile. "Thanks Liam, I needed that." Jaune said as he stood up from the bench as well. "Hey what are In-Laws for?" Liam said as Jaune sputtered at his words. "We're not even dating yet!" Jaune said as he looked at Liam in shock and embarrassment. "Trust me, you'll get there eventually!" Liam said with another laugh as he winked at Jaune. Jaune buries his face in his hands as he tried to relax after Liam said that.
                "Now the important thing is to match your suit with her dress, so we need something red." Liam said as hell looked through the tuxedoes. "How do you you know Pyrrha's dress will be red?" Jaune asked as he helped Liam look. "One, she's my sister, two Neo sat me down and laid the whole plan out for me. I swear her and Coco are terrifying when it comes to clothes." Liam said as he spotted a tux that might just work.

"I think we have a winner with this one Jaune." Liam said as he showed the suit to Jaune. Liam quickly pushed Jaune into the fitting room so he could try the suit on. Jaune stepped out of the fitting room as Liam looked him over to make sure everything looked good before nodding his head.
"Alright, looks like your all set! Now for me." Liam said as he walked towards a section of the store before finding the tux he was looking for. Jaune has just finished getting back into his normal clothes when he got a look at the suit Liam had picked out.

"Why am I not surprised you have to wear some kind of pink?" Jaune said as he let out a small chuckle. "Neo loves getting me into clothes that are pink, she says I look good in pink." Liam said as he rolled his eyes at the memory of his girlfriend telling him that. "Anyway, let's pay for these and head back to Beacon." Liam said as they both went up to the counter and paid.
Neo was sitting with Pyrrha in the Team KNDM dorm after getting her boyfriend's sister a dress. "Thank you for taking me shopping Neo, but I don't think anyone will ask me to the dance." Pyrrha said as she looked down at her lap with a sad smile on her face. "I wouldn't worry to much about that Pyrrha, a pretty girl like you is sure to be asked to the dance!" Neo's sign typed out as she smiled at Pyrrha. Pyrrha blushed slightly at Neo's words before looking away in embarrassment. Their conversation was interrupted by Liam and Jaune entering the dormitory.
                  "Pyrrha can I talk to you outside?" Jaune said nervously as Pyrrha looked over at Neo for support. Neo gave her a thumbs up as Pyrrha slowly followed Jaune outside. Liam sat down next to Neo as he set his shopping bag down. "How'd tux shopping go?" Neo's sign typed out as she gave Liam curious look. "It took a bit of moral support, but I think he's ready." Liam said as they both turned to look out the window to see Pyrrha hugging Jaune tightly. "You did wonderful Hubby!" Neo's sign typed out as she hugged her boyfriend happily as she snuggled up to him.
Summer Rose was in her room at Patch's mental hospital as she sat in silence. "These monsters are trying to keep me from my sweet little boy! He needs his mommy, and they're keeping them from me!" Summer thought you herself as she noticed something outside the window of her room. A man in black robes and pink hair. Summer turned away as she went back to her thoughts, she had to get out of here and get to her son! Summer started to writhe in pain as she felt a pain in her heart. This pain had been going on for the past couple days.
Summer began to see black smoke coming off her body, similar to the energy that covered Liam when he entered Anti-Form. "W-W-What's happening to me?!" Summer screeched as she felt pain shooting out from every part of her body. Summer's became unnaturally blue as her eyes glowed yellow. Her white robes transformed as she was in a white version of the Organization XIII robes. Summer, or the thing that once was Summer Rose summoned a scythe from the darkness that surrounded her.

"Miss Rose, it's lunch time." A nurse said as she saw the monster that was now Summer Rose. The nurse screamed as she tried to run, but was cut down by the monster. Instead of having a bloody wound, the Nurse's heart was revealed. The monster gently held it in her hand before generating dark energy around it. Eventually a new type of Heartless stood in front of the monster.

The monster patted the Mannequin Heartless on it's head before speaking. "Go play for Mother." The monster ordered as the Mannequin Heartless exited the room to wreak havoc.
Marluxia looked at Summer Rose, or what Summer Rose has become with genuine interest. "To think the darkness we had planted with the Rose Family's hearts to produce the perfect vessel for Ansem would lead to this." Marluxia said as he tried to wrap his head around it. "Unlike the rest of the Rose family, who had the darkness cleared from their system, but Summer Rose's body retained it." Marluxia said as he watched the monster walk through the halls of the mental hospital, collecting hearts to create more Mannequin Heartless.
               "Perhaps the guilt of her actions became to much for her to handle, which gave the darkness proper sustenance to survive and grow. It doesn't matter now, Summer Rose is no more. All that remains is the Nobody Mother Reaper." Marluxia said as he exited through a dark corridor to allow Mother Reaper to finish her business. Mother Reaper sat on a throne made by her Mannequin Heartless as she patted one of her Heartless on the head. "My sweet child, I will bring you home!" Mother Reaper said as she let out a crazed cackle, it seemed as if Summer Rose no longer existed. The only thing left was this crazed Nobody.

So Jaune asked Pyrrha out to the dance! It looks like the school dance is shaping up to be one hell of a night! Although a new threat has come from the most unlikely of places! How will the school dance go? Will Liam and Neo show the new students their dance skills? What threats lurk in the shadows? Find out in the next chapter of RWBY: Let Your Heart Be Your Guiding Key!
