Revenge is an explosion! (RWBY X Male Reader story)

Episode 2: Bloody Revenge

Ozpin: "And finally, Emanuel Lemon, Y/N L/N, Nautilus Arthur, and Terra Blake, on Team LYNT. Being led by Terra Blake!"

You had a particularly deep scowl on your face as he said that last part.

Later~

You and the rest of LYNT had just made it to your dorm. You threw your stuff onto a bed and immediately turned around to leave.

You: "I'll be gone for a day to check on my family."

You lied as naturally as you breathed.

Though it wasn't exactly a lie. You were going to check on your family but not for the entire day.

On your way across the courtyard to the Bullheads, you spot a certain black-haired Faunus-in-secret. Speed walking past her, she seems to be disgusted by the lingering smell of blood on you.

You: "disgusting animals"

You mutter out, looking over your shoulder to see the girl glaring at you.

Smirking, you fail to notice Not appearing directly in front of you.

You: "Watch where... oh it's you. What do you want from me now, Not?"

Not: Eh, just wanted to get to know you better.

Not had a bored look in his eyes but a smirk on his face.

You: "Whatever..."

The two of you continue walking towards the bullheads, Not asking you questions about your life all the way.

Not: So... how'd you learn to fight?

A question you had been prepared for, unlike his others which were general questions about your clothing choices and such.

You: "My parents taught me. My father taught me how to shoot and my mother taught me how to swing a sword."

You tell Not, him nodding along.

Not: You didn't go to any combat schools?

He raised an eyebrow in your direction.

You: "Nope, I was enrolled on a recommendation."

Not: "Well, who recommended you?"

You: "A mentor of sorts. I worked with him for a few months before I was the eligible age for Beacon."

You have fond memories of your mentor. Though you couldn't stand the smell of alcohol, he was pretty cool.

You: "What about you?"

Not seemed almost taken aback by the question but he answered it nonetheless.

Not: "Oh, my brother taught me how to fight and as you know Oz owes me a few favours."

You: "You have a brother?"

Not: Yeah, he's pretty cool. Though one time he hit me harder than was necessary and I had to take a short leave from my job.

You: "What sorta job do you have?"

You ask, genuinely interested in what job the twink that is Nautilus Theo Arthur could possibly hold.

Not: Oh I got promoted a while ago, but back then... let's just say I worked in demolition.

Not smirked at you, his eyes say bored but his face says joy. You didn't know which was his true emotion, but you didn't have time to contemplate it any longer as you had been pushed from behind and started to fall from Beacon.

You: 'Jay damn it.'

You looked into Not's eyes which shined with amusement, which was the opposite of the concerned look his face held.
