Silver Shadow Returns

Silver's Mania

Mercury climbed the ladder to Viktor's lab as the faunus taped his foot against the metal making a soft *ting ting ting*. "Thanks for coming Merc, to be honest i-" *SLAM* Adam made it very clear he'd left the building " I don't know why but for some reason I think he's mad at me " Mercury quipped as he walked into the lab "it's probably just something petty, Adam seems like the type" Viktor said as he rummaged through various gadgets and gizmos until he pulled out a very large harmonica-looking one. " the heck is that thing ?" " oh this? It's just a hand scanner, nothing to worry about '' Viktor said as he walked over to his friend "I need you to keep your eyes open okay" he said as he turned it on and shone a red light directly into Mercury's eyes. After a few seconds Viktor pulled the device back and connected it to the computer " house run this against the data from Apollo and Ruby's files '' he told the AI as it began to bring up two different files " that stung y'know'' Mercury said as he rubbed his eyes '' yeah I do, thanks for not flinching though" the by genius said as the computer *dinged* "sir your assumptions are correct," house said as he put Merc, Apollo and Ruby's scans on the screen with a special energy being recorded. "The heck's that?" "There's a unique energy radiating off of your eyes, I'm around seventy-eight percent confident that's what lets you see our invisible madman" Viktor explained " so what I got magic eyes ?" Mercury joked as he leaned against the computer " well one. No, magic doesn't exist, and two. Not just you, everyone with silver eyes" Viktor said " if I get this right, I should be able to make a device that can see him "" well that would be quite a surprise" a familiar voice rang out from behind them.

They turned around to find the madman with his shuriken at the ready. "What's with the new mask? You lost your old one?" Silver quipped at the man as he waved his finger " oh no, you see the man before you had been transformed, for now on you shall refer to me as Gemini " the man shouted in his usual flair " how did you even get in he-" *CRASH* Viktor was cut off by a large piece of shattered window falling to the ground as Leo landed on the ground. "You know I opened the one right next to that one" Gemini deadpanned at his pupil as he got up and pulled out his hammers " I wanted to get his attention " the faunus responded " Vic which one you wanna fight?" " the one I can actually see please" the boy genius said as he pulled out his light cannons and blasted at the monkey boy as Silver charged at Gemini.

Viktor unloaded a storm from the Ctrl attempting to keep the faunus at bay. The faunus who ducked and wove through the bolts of light. Leo smacked the genius across his face and onto one of the nearby rooftops. " you're so pathetic," Leo shouted at Viktor as he walked towards him, twirling his hammers. Viktor blasted at him only for Leo to deflect the blast, knocking the ctrl out of his hand " shoot, shoot, shoot, that's all you do. You don't punch, you don't kick, you can't even block," Leo continued as he stepped on Viktor's chest " it's an insult to my skills to even be fighting you" the boy said with venom dripping out his words. "Then why are you here?" Viktor asked the masked boy who leaned over to look him in his eyes, " something that doesn't have anything to do with someone of your skills." Leo was then blasted in the chest by the Altr and flew down to the streets below, Viktor got up and picked up the ctrl and put it back in its holster " whatever you're up to, I'm gonna stop you"

Silver was engaged in a dancing duel with the man with a split mask. Swiftly dodging and striking to the pseudo-beat they were making as they clashed. Suddenly his scroll rang, he tossed it into the air as he limboed under the ring as it swiped at him. He caught it with his foot and tossed it to his hands " yel- wow" Silver answered as he dodged the death hula hoop " Silver, something's up just wait for me to get back there" he said huffing and coughing. " What'd you think I was doing twiddling my thu-" Silver then looked over to his neck as Gemini had somehow managed to impale him with a needle, despite his aura being very active. The masked man squeezed the syringe and put a strange green liquid deep into his neck.

Viktor hopped back through the hole that had been put in his windows by the monkey faunus only to see Silver being impaled by a floating syringe, he shot at where the arm would be and it dropped to the ground along with Silver who was still wide eyed. "What the heck did you do to him?" He asked the invisible murder who Viktor believed to still be in the room, yet the room stayed silent. Viktor took out the cannons and pointed them opposite him. As he walked over to Silver and looked at him, he was completely silent as he laid limp on the floor. "I know you're still here" Viktor said as he aimed his guns in a circle, "you're pointing at nothing " Leo said as he hobbled into the room from the window. " besides, he ain't exactly strong enough to get up so you can't even see him, you patheti-" "now, now, Leo you'll need to increase your vocabulary before you'll be making those insults'' Gemini said as he batted Viktor away from his friend "of course Leo's still right, you're just too pathetic to stop either of us in single conflict Silver-boy" the man said as Viktor scanned his eyes over to Silver who was clearly fighting against the poison "I'll show you, I'll beat you both" Viktor's best friend said to the man as he slowly pushed against the solid ground, yet for some reason his voice seemed, off? "Oh please, you're so weak your friends don't even want to train with you. I mean why else would they have Adam usher you here? They obviously don't want to be bogged down by such a low level fighter" Gemini said as Silver now stood up and looked at him. "That's no-" " let the man speak" Leo said as he kneed Viktor in the gut, silencing him "I mean if I was you in this situation, I'd go over there and show them I'm not weak. Of course you're not nearly as strong as I am" Gemini said to Silver who then grumbled something under his breath. "Of course I'm strong enough, I'll show them!!" Silver said as he leapt out of the window, shattering yet another section of glass. "Alright, now that that's done, you can let him go" Gemini stated as Leo stepped off of Viktor's lungs" Viktor quickly hopped to his feet as a rolled piece of paper smacked him in the cheek. "It's the chemical recipe for the tonic I just injected into your friend" Gemini explained whilst Viktor grabbed it "why would you give me this ?" Viktor asked "It's a simple test, Can the boy genius cook up an antidote before Silver Shadow tears his own friends limb from limb?" Leo said as He tossed Viktor his own scroll?? "I'd love to stay and chat, but your timer's already ticking." Gemini said as Viktor could see Leo leaving. He quickly took out his scroll and dialed up Weiss.

Adam walked into Weiss' garden/ training place and quickly noticed Yang and Apollo engaged in a spar as Weiss and Ruby sat on the stairs watching. He plopped himself a couple feet to Weiss' left as Yang knocked out Apollo with the same uppercut she used on Nora. "ooh, me next, me next" Ruby shouted enthusiastically as she skipped over to her cousin, her scythe drawn. "It's been three fights and Yang's still going, you'd think she'd take a break by now" Weiss marveled "she wants to get better, you can't exactly do that by taking breaks, you go until you can't stand anymore" Adam rebutted as he pulled out his sword " if she's trying to get better why isn't Viktor or Silver here? Heck Silver's the only person who could keep up with me" Weiss stated as Adam burst out laughing "oh- okay princess, let's get one thing clear Silver is THE STRONGEST of us, believe me from first hand experience, that boy is a freak of nature" Adam told Weiss who simply brushed it off "hey if he was here he could probably take us all on and win" Adam boasted his friend as Weiss' scroll rang out. "Sorry I'll just need to take this," Weiss said as she pulled out her device "hey Vik, wait what's going on, the masked man, what's going on with Si-" Silver then landed in the middle of the garden, "okay I'm only gonna say this once, FIGHT ME ALL AT ONCE!!"

"James, are you sure you want me to go? I mean, I'm not exactly the most diplomatic of the people you've got on speed dial" Mars said over his scroll "yeah I know but this is Ozpin we're talking about, you know how he likes to keep tabs on every little thing" Ironwood said as he was clearly typing something on his computer "lemme guess he wants to see Silver?" "You can't just disappear for thirteen years, have a kid, then have that kid show up fighting crime and not expect him to be normal about it.
