Odd Return

Y/N POV

Blake: "Y/N, I need help!"

I rush to the rescue. Reaching out I pull the cobbler out of the oven. 

Y/N: "Where'd you want it?"

Blake: "On the stove."

I set the cobbler down. 

Blake: "Honey, the mixer won't work!"

I rush in and whisk the potatoes as fast as I can. The door bell then rings.

Blake: "I got it."

She opens the door revealing the others and their kids. 

Pyrrha: "You need help with anything?"

Y/N: "I need you to turn on the fan so the no bakes can dry."

She flips the fan on. 

Jaune: "Hey the turkey's golden."

Blake: "Take it out please."

He takes the turkey out. 

Y/N: "Nora, pour the gravy please."

She grabs the bowl and baptizes the mashed potatoes. 

Y/N: "Beautiful. It's all ready!!!"

Blake: "Lucas, you mind getting Noir? She should be getting ready in her room."

Lucas: "Yes mam."

Lucas POV

I walk to Noir's room and gently knock. 

Lucas: "Noir? You ready?"

I receive only silence. I open her door to see her window slightly open. Knowing what that means I head back downstairs to her parents.

Y/N: "She coming?"

Lucas: "She's out running an errand."

He looks at the clock.

Y/N: "I only hope she doesn't stay out too long."

Noir POV

I land on a rooftop looking down at the street. I look up as snow cascades from the sky. Thankfully I have a jacket and scarf to help keep warm. An alarm puts my attention back on the street.

Man: "Stop thief!!!"

A large man runs down the street.

Noir: "These guys never learn."

I leap towards him. But he looks over his shoulder and punches my chest. My ribs creak and I go flying into the side of a building. I stagger to my feet holding my side.

Noir: "What the heck? It felt like I got hit by a semi."

I look at the man as he faces me.

Noir: "You broke the law. Face your punishment."

Man: "I only stole to provide."

I tilt my head. That's when I hear a small cough.

Voice: "I'm cold."

He opens his cloak showing a small girl fastened to his chest.

Man: "It'll be okay. When I'm finished I'll light us a fire."

Noir: "What's wrong with her?"

Man: "The cold is too much for her lungs. I need to get her somewhere warm."

Noir: "Where're you two staying?"

Man: "In an alley about two blocks from here."

I internally sigh.

Noir: "My family's having a thanksgiving party. There's food and a fireplace. Plenty of room for the two of you."

Man: "You'd help us, why?"

Noir: "Because no one truly deserves to suffer."

Man: "I shall graciously accept your offer."

Noir: "Good. Follow me."

I lead us back to my house. Revealing my face I ring the doorbell. 

Man: "Are you sure it's okay for us to be here?"

Noir: "Yeah, my parents are pretty chill."

The door opens to reveal dad.

Y/N POV

I open the door to see Noir in her costume.

Y/N: "Hey kid. Why're you using the front door?"

Noir: "Well, I had to lead some people here."

She motions to the side. I follow her hand and see something that makes my eyes widen.

Y/N: "Mark!?"

Mark: "Y/N!?"

Noir: "You two know each other?"

Y/N: "We do."

We shake hands.

Mark: "You've really grown up."

Y/N: "So have you. I see them gray hairs."

He chuckles when I notice the kid strapped to his chest. 

Y/N: "Who's this one?"

Mark: "This' Susan."

Blake: "Y/N, we're ready to eat!"

Y/N: "Come inside guys."

I walk them inside as Noir zips to her room to change. Meanwhile Mark and I head to the living room with the others.

Y/N: "Guys, I'd like for you to meet Mark Blanco."

He waves as everyone smiles and waves back. He sets Susan down. She becomes nervous hiding behind Mark's legs.

Mark: "It's ok. These people are friendly."

She shyly walks out.

Susan: "Hello. I'm Susan."

Pyrrha: "Nice to meet you."

Glynda: "You're just so cute."

Suddenly a cat tail makes itself known. It flicks as her cheeks turn red.
