Part 8

(Y/N): Gotta tell ya, didn't know you really had in you to stop an Ursa on your own.

Jaune: *nervous laugh* It's nothing really.

You gave him a friendly tap on the shoulder in response.

(Y/N): Come on man, you gotta at least take credit for something.

Jaune: Yeah... Too bad Professor Peach needs these for herself. They smell really good.

You agreed but had an idea that would probably make you and your team happy. In fact, you looked to the side and found Joanna looking at the Red Sap in hunger. So, you devised a plan to return here at a later time since you also wanted some of the sap for yourself to make treats.

Small Timeskip

(Y/N): Pst! Joanna!

You signalled to your fellow team mate as everyone returned to the air ship.

Joanna: What's up, (Y/N)?

(Y/N): I'm thinking of coming back here to gather some more sap for ourselves. Wanna join me?

Joanna: R-really?! I-I mean... Are we even allowed?

You nodded in reply, even though you weren't exactly sure yourself. Taking anymore at this moment would result in the sap being taken from Goodwitch in contributions for Professor Peach.

(Y/N): We'll just ask Ozpin.

Joanna: I see, very well. I'll gladly join.

The female Arc was rather joyous on the inside since she can enjoy the delicious substance. Even Nora seemed to really enjoy since half your team's jars were consumed by the orange haired teen.

Although, somebody else overheard and decided to approach.

Blake: If you wouldn't mind then I'd like to join as well.

Weiss: Same.

You were confused by the sudden approach from the two members of team RWBYL.

(Y/N): Uhh, sure! The more the merrier!

Of course, it wasn't the end since one more individual wanted to tag along.

Lucius: M-may I join as well?

You turned your heads to find Lucius approaching rather shyly since she was drawn to you for some unknown reason. You simply smiled at her since you couldn't refuse her shy smile.

(Y/N): Alright, guess that makes five of us for tonight...

You then remembered the words from the High Priestess.

Corona: I'd better not hear that you were harming or taking advantage of my sister in anyway possible! Otherwise I'll gladly usher you into the afterlife!

Of course, she didn't mean that she was going to literally kill you but you will suffer a fate worse than death.

Timeskip

(Y/N): So... Six of us now?

Your eye was twitching at the fact that Pyrrha somehow tagged along without knowing of your plans.

Pyrrha: I don't want to miss the opportunity of exploring that wonderful place again! Besides, Nora used all of our syrup again so it'd be nice to gather some Red Sap instead.

You sighed in defeat before giving off a light shrug.

(Y/N): Well, it ain't exactly against the rules to head there anyways. Just as long as we make it back before dark, least that's what Ozpin told me.

Pyrrha: Yay!

(Y/N): Alright, everyone inside! Just make sure you hand in your permission slips!

All six of you boarded the airship and were immediately off towards the Forever Fall.

Some time has passed as all of you were patiently awaiting to land. Some of them began to chat amongst each other while you sat quietly next to Lucius.

The white and black haired woman at there nervously while quickly shifting her eyes towards you whenever you weren't looking.

In an attempt to speak to you, she decided to bring up a certain topic.

Lucius: Those burn marks.... What were they from?

(Y/N): My semblance. I can create fire at will but I mainly use it to on my blade. It's already powerful enough to burn away anything but it comes with a catch.

Lucius: What is it?

(Y/N): If I use it long enough then it'll start spreading on my body, it makes the flames more powerful but it also burns away my body.

Lucius: Your own semblance uses your body as fuel...

(Y/N): What about you?

You were interested in learning about her semblance while the two of you were on the subject. Although, you never expected for her to look down while lightly shaking.

Lucius: I'd rather not say... Nor would I want to use it...

(Y/N): Hey, come on now. You don't have to tell me if it makes you unconformable. You can just tell me whenever you want.

She nodded and looked away to hide her blush.

Lucius: T-thank you, (Y/N)...

All of a sudden, everything shook as the air ship decided to make it's decent.

Pilot: I'm taking us down! There's huge storm spreading fast and we're caught in the middle of it!

Weiss: Storm? But the area skies clear just this morning!

The air ship shook once again which frightened everyone. You even felt some one grab hold of your arm.

It was Lucius, who kept your eyes close while holding your arm with both of her own. The lightning terrified her as it deeply reminded her a small part of her past. One that made her wished to return to a mindless state to never feel the pain and fear again.

So, you've decided to pull her closer and brought into a warm, comforting hold.

The woman was surprised by your action but allowed herself to rest in your arms. The embrace soothed her as the lightning continued to flash and rumbling thunder.

Meanwhile, Blake saw what you have done and was starting to feel a little jealous of what was occurring. She wanted to be the one in your arms as the situation called for it.

Pilot: I'm losing control! Everyone brace for impact and make sure your aura is protecting you!!

Crash!

Everything went to black as the air ship crash landed in the forever falls.

You opened your eyes to find everybody in once piece. Although, they were still unconscious as they were scattered across the air ship's floor.

As you struggled to move, the sound of electricity crackling can be heard. You looked up to find a woman in black and red clothing while the rest of her body different.

Her skin was grey, her hair was black and white along with a set of two horns pointing forward, the demonic eyes stared deep into your soul and her black wings resting against her back.

(Y/N): Wha-

Lightning struck nearby, creating another flash of light. The woman was nowhere to be seen after the phenomenon.

A distant screech can be heard from outside as it sounded rather distant.

(Y/N): What have I gotten us into?

To be continued...
