The Heir and his new Hamlet(RWBY x Darkest Dungeon)

Chapter 6

"That is why and how we are now enrolling in Beacon Academy, just as planned."

Darric spoke proudly, as though that entire string of events wasn't almost purely coincidental. However, his selected Retinue knew better but still maintained their composure out of respect. The heir was accompanied by Dismas, Reynauld, and Jezebel. Much to Nasrias and Mercias chagrin the Heir insisted they stay behind in the "apartment" Ozpin had provided with those that hadn't been aged down, believing that they would add a much needed healer and fighter to the force in case of any attempts on their life and safety, not to mention the money-savvy mercenary maiden would have to be the one to manage how they spend their monthly stipend, in an attempt to avoid Mercia donating it away, Reynauld swiping it or the abomination drinking his sorrows away, a good compromise and overall decision he reckoned.

While Darric briefed his selected Retinue down on what is being planned, a certain scythe wielding sugar addicted girl approached him, followed closely by a taller and fiery blonde.

"See, Yang, he does exist!" Ruby exclaimed at her sister with a childish anger in her voice while Yang chuckled at her sister.

"So, heya Darric, I know this is a bit sudden but this is Yang, my beloved sister who didn't believe that I had made a friend all on my own yesterday even after ENCOURAGING ME TO MAKE FRIENDS." Ruby pouted like a little kid as she finished her sentence, one laced with embarrassment and anger, her sister bursting out into all put laughter from Ruby's tangent.

Darric eyed her with a healthy dose of paranoia and confusion before doing the gentlemanly thing of addressing her.

"Greetings, madam. I am Darric d'Nantes, and these here are my retainers, Reynauld, Dismas, and Jezebel." He gave a proper bow as etiquette demanded, pointing to each of his respective friends and bodyguards as he listed them off.

Yang was slightly taken aback by the Heirs' overly archaic antics, but she regained her composure very quickly before throwing a friendly punch right into the extravagantly dressed aristocrat

"Jeez man, no need to be so stiff, I'm not some old hag after all, so drop the madam and call me Yang. Deal mystery boy-friend of Ruby's?" She threw her arm around him before pulling him close and emphasising the last few words with a teasing sultry voice, separating boy and friend but still making sure to say it in such a fashion it could be nothing but another damn tease within a tease, catching everyone, especially Darric and Ruby, off guard.

"Hey hey now, hands off the young master-" Jezebel attempted to intervene but suddenly a hologram popped up with Glynda Goodwitch doing the job for her and catching everyone's attention, saving the Heir and Ruby a whole lot of flustering and embarrassment, it especially caught Darrics attention as his interest in this worlds technology made him look at everything with childish curiosity and sometimes glee.

Glynda went on to speak about how everyone in the Bullhead was among the privileged few to attend the prestigious Beacon Academy, how they as future huntsmen and huntress had to keep the current status quo of world peace. As Darric weaseled his way from beneath Yangs surprisingly muscular arm, he chuckled at the thought of it, world peace was a concept which back in Europe was viewed as something Utopian and Romantical, fictitious and nothing more. Yet here he was, a world at peace with the only conflicts being between groups such as the White Fang.

While he was engrossed in his thoughts a tall blonde guy pushed his way past the Heir, throwing up in a nearby trash can which threw Darric back into reality and prompted him to take a seat with his retainers to continue their discussions as the Bullhead landed, but not before hearing Ruby yell at Yang that she had vomit on her boot, earning her a chuckle from the entire group.
