Battle Scars (Yang x Male Reader) RWBY Vol. 4

Numb

Opening with your perspective.

It was now morning that you and Yang had both agreed to try out the prosthetics that General Ironwood had sent to the both of you. You and Yang and Tai brought the boxes holding the prosthetics to the living room and sat on the couch aside from each other. Zwei being the playful pup that he was jumped up into Yang's lap causing Yang to chuckle a bit before she began to pet him. She then looked at the boxes that you both sat at the coffee table in front of you both before she looked back at you seeming a bit uncertain still.

Yang: Are... you ready?

You smiled at Yang reassuringly.

y/n: As ready as you are.

Tai: We're right beside you, Yang.

Tai leaned back against the railing of the stairs as he gave Yang a reassuring smile as well. Yang smiled at both of you.

Yang: Alright.

Yang then gently shoved Zwei between the both of you before she reached for her prosthetic as you began to reach for yours. Yang then attached her prosthetic to what was left of her right arm as you placed the prosthetic eye into your right eye socket. Both prosthetics seemed to turn on as you put them in. As you put in your prosthetic eye you began to feel your vision adjust. Everything seemed blurry at first but you saw everything around you begging to slowly become clear. You looked over at Yang and you saw that her prosthetic arm gave off a lot of glare but the glare slowly faded away. You also saw that Yang was moving her prosthetic fingers and moving the arm around to test it.

y/n: How does it feel?

Yang looked at you seeming uncertain.

Yang: I kind of feel like I'm moving it.

Yang then began to pet Zwei with her prosthetic arm and he seemed to enjoy it. But as Yang pet him she seemed disappointed.

Yang: But I can't feel anything with it.

You sighed feeling bad for Yang.

y/n: It's like it's numb isn't it?

Yang looked at her prosthetic arm and nodded sadly.

Tai: Well it's a prosthetic so it will be an odd thing to adjust to.

Tai then walked up behind and leaned over the couch between you both as he placed his hand on Yang's shoulder comforting her.

Tai: But you'll get used to it. Little by little.

You turned your whole body to face Yang.

y/n: And I'll be there to help you through it. Every step of the way.

Yang looked at you and almost cracked a smile.

Yang: Then let's get to it.

You and Yang then made your way outside alongside Zwei and Tai. As you walked outside you noticed that you're prosthetic eye took longer than your normal one did to adjust to the light.

Tai: We'd better get ready if you two wanna head out there again.

Tai then took a fighting stance.

Tai: You both ready?

You felt as though it wasn't fair that Tai would challenge both you and Yang at once.

y/n: Both of us against you?

Yang turned to you.

Yang: He's not being overconfident y/n.

Tai smirked confidently.
