Elly: Wait. The supplies or the ones that stole them?
(Y/n): Both. I don't know where they hid them exactly, but I do know that they are somewhere in the West side of town.
Natalie: Great job, (y/n)!
Brock: That's what I like about you, dude. We can screw up royally, but we can always count on you to get the job done without even trying.
Peach: Well... Even though I don't fully agree to your methods, well done Mr. (L/n).
(Y/n): Thanks. So, are we heading out?
Peach: We'll get started first thing in the morning.
(Y/n): Excuse me, what now?
Peach: It's getting late. We will get some rest, then head to the West side first thing in the morning.
(Y/n): Ooorr, or we can go now and save some time. While simultaneously catching the one that stole the supplies, who might have over heard us questioning half the town!
Peach: This is not up for debate. In case you are unaware, your team isn't exactly up for the task right now.
Natalie: She's right. My feet are killing me.
Brock: Agreed. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Elly: Yeah, I need to recharge my batteries after a whole day of bigotry.
(Y/n): 'I didn't know I was partnered up with a bunch of pussies!'
Peach: Then it's settled. Do you have any more arguments, Mr. (L/n)?
(Y/n):... No, Professor Peach.
The group walks back into Thorn and Thistle's, turning in for the night.
[Thirty minutes later]
Brock steps out of the bathroom with nothing on but his boxers, heading to his bed.
Brock: Man those girls can hit hard when they want to, and-what are you doing?
(Y/n): Fuck off, I'm meditating.
(Y/n) is seen sitting on his bed cross legged, his eyes are closed. Brock simply leaves him be and goes to bed.
(Y/n): 'Alright then, time to use my godly powers and cheat a little'.
Extending his powers outward, (y/n) reaches out to all the minds he can find, seeing if the mind of at least one mortal has what he is looking for.
Peach: 'I need to watch out for that (y/n) child. There is something off about him that makes me uneasy...'
Elly: 'If another motherfucker calls me a dog faunus one more time, I'm going to kick them in the fucking crotch!'
Natalie: 'Who would steal the supplies? What would happen if we confront the culprit? "sigh" I hope this will turn out well...'
Brock: 'Nakedladiesnakedladiesnakedladiesnakedladiesnakedladies.'
(Y/n): 'Hmmm. I should extend a little further.'
[A few hours later]
???: 'I hope to God that blonde guy doesn't show up again.'
???: '23 bottles of beer on the wall!'
???: 'Welcome to the rice fields, motherfucker!'
After hours of searching, (y/n) is about ready to give up out of boredom. Until...
???: 'This is bad, real bad! These Huntsmen are going to ruin the shipment. I need to move the supplies out immediately.'
(Y/n) snaps his eyes open and cracks a smile.
(Y/n): Gotcha.
He gets out of bed and silently leaves the Inn. Walking through the streets, he heads towards the West side of town. Just a little longer, (y/n) sees someone with a hoodie up.
???: 'Just a few more blocks and-'
(Y/n): Excuse me.
The stranger jumps slightly, turning around to face (y/n). The individual is a teenage boy with green eyes and brown hair.
???: Y-yes? 'Crap, it's one of them!'
(Y/n): Sorry to bug you, but why are you out so late?
???: Me? Why are you out so late?
(Y/n): I'm a Huntsmen in training. I have a little authoritative freedom to stay up pass my bedtime. Would you kindly answer my question now?
???: I-I have insomnia, walking around helps me a little to get tired. 'I need to ditch this guy and get to the factory as soon as possible.'
(Y/n): Mm-hmm. Tell me, do you know anything about a factory on the West side of town?
For a split second, the look of panic is shown on the boy's face before going back to normal. However, (y/n) can still sense it emanating from him.
???: Uh, y-yeah. Just an old worn down building where teens go and hang out. Nothing interesting about it.
He sticks his hands in his pockets.
(Y/n): Oh really? Well, would you be so kind as to lead me to it?
???: W-why? 'Crap crap crap!'
(Y/n): I'm doing an investigation on missing supplies with my team and have deduced that they are somewhere in this town. Also...
He steps closer to the boy, he is visibly shaking.
(Y/n): Your little panic attack is giving it all away.
The boy rips his hands out of his pockets and throws sand at (y/n)'s face before making a run for it. (Y/n) just stands there as he watches the boy run down an alley, completely unfazed by the sand in his eyes.
(Y/n): Mmmh. I'll give him a few minutes to run around. Got to let him know he lost me.
[A few minutes later, outside of the old factory]
The boy barges into the factory and shuts the door behind himself. He rushes to a stack of boxes and pulls out his scroll. He dials a few numbers and holds it up to his ear.
Boy: Come on, come on! Pick up!...... Hello! This is an emergency, a Huntsman knows about the supplies! I don't know how long until they get here!....... Burn the supplies? It took us weeks to get them. Are you sure-...... Yes, I understand...... Praise the Father.
He hangs up the scroll and turns to get a jerry can, only to be met with a hand around his neck. He reaches for the arm to try and break free.
(Y/n): Miss me?
The boy pulls out a pocket knife and rams it in (y/n)'s neck. He stands there in shock as (y/n) just stares at him in boredom. He reaches for the knife and pulls it out of his neck. There is no blood on the blade, or the wound. There is no blood in general, just an open wound that is slowly closing back up. He tosses the knife across the room.
(Y/n): Well, that was rude!
Boy: "struggle" What. What are you?!
(Y/n) let's him go and takes a stand back.
(Y/n): I need you to listen very carefully to me, boy. I will ask you some questions and you will answer them truthfully. I will know if you are lying, trust me. You lie to me, you will die. You try anything funny, you will die. You simply annoy me. You. Will. Die. If you answer all of my questions truthfully, not only will I let you go but I will answer one of your questions. Understand?
The boy stands there for a moment before hesitantly nodding.
(Y/n): Great! First question... What is your name?
???: M-my name? It's... It's Donn.
(Y/n): Question two... Why are these supplies stolen?
Donn: Um, we were going to send these supplies to a base in Vacuo.
(Y/n): Question three... Who do you work for?
Donn: I'm with the Children. We are an old organization, mostly a cult, that has been around for a very long time.
(Y/n): Last question, and it's a two parter... Who is the Father and where did you learn about him?
Donn scratches the back of his head before answering.
Donn: He's... He is the beginning and the end. The overwatcher of Remnant. The guardian of all that is life, and the executioner of those that would dare abuse it's wonders. He is our God, our guidance... Our Father. Everyone that follows the Children learn of him at an early age...
He stands there uncomfortably as (y/n) just stares at him.
(Y/n:........... Congratulations! You get to live! Now, you may ask me one question.
Donn: U-um, how were you... Why did... How come.......... Who are you?
(Y/n) sports a warm smile and motions Donn to walk forward...
[Location: Outside of the factory]
The sun was rising as (y/n) makes his way out of the factory, Donn is taking a back exit and sneaking out of town.
(Y/n): Hahaha! I just made that boy's day!... The Children, huh? That might be worth looking into later on.
*ring ring*
He pulls out his scroll and answers.
(Y/n): Yellow?
Natalie: (y/n), where are you?
(Y/n): While you guys were getting your beauty sleep, I went out and just found the missing supplies!
Natalie: Wait, you found it?!
(Y/n): Yep. No sign of the culprit, though. I'm outside of a factory on the West side. Meet me there.
*beep*
After a few minutes, the group made it to the factory. The team congratulated (y/n) while Peach just lectured him about disobeying orders, then congratulated him. As much as team EBNY wanted to head back to Beacon, Professor Peach said they needed to stay and try to find the suspect. She called for an air ship to pick up the supplies in advance. A few hours of fruitless searching later and they all met back to the Inn. Elly, on the other hand, is running across the street with her scroll out.
Elly: Professor Peach! You need to see this!
She hands over the scroll while trying to catch her breath. Peach looks at the scroll for a few seconds before looking back at Elly with an unamused expression.
Peach: Miss Beli, I am not interested in having sex with hot single milfs in my area.
Elly rips the scroll out of Peach's hand and taps on it with a blush. She hands it back to her.
Peach:............. "gasp" We are heading back to Beacon! Now!
Natalie: Why? What happened?
Peach: Vale has been hit by a grimm attack!
(Y/n): 'Wow. That was fast.'
----
Salem: The Children?
A/n: All in due time, Salem. All in due time.
