Yang POV

Making my way back to the dorm I see the rest of my teammates each doing their own thing. Ruby then looks at me.

Ruby: "I thought you were gonna work on bumblebee."

Yang: "Changed my mind."

Ruby: "Are you okay?"

I cock an eyebrow.

Yang: "Why would you be asking me that?"

Ruby: "Because you've been kinda off ever since the night at the docks. So what's wrong?"

I sigh taking a seat on my bed.

Yang: "When I was fighting that guy in the suit, something felt off."

Weiss: "Define off."

Yang: "When I looked into his eyes, I didn't see anything. Like he was nothing but an empty husk. Then there was the feeling he was giving off."

Blake: "What was the feeling?"

Yang: "Evil."

Ruby: "Evil?"

Yang: "Yeah. It was practically flowing off of him like a river."

Weiss: "I didn't sense anything."

Ruby: "Me neither."

Blake: "Nope. Kinda weird you're the only one who sensed it. Maybe it was because you were the one fighting him."

Yang: "Maybe. But whatever was with that man wasn't natural."

Ruby: "So what're you thinking?"

I stand up.

Yang: "I got a guy in Vale. Kinda specializes in stuff like this. I'm gonna go talk to him, see if he knows anything."

Ruby: "Not by yourself."

I turn around to see my teammates joining me.

Yang: "You're coming along?"

Weiss: "I'm just curious."

Blake: "I'm into the unknown."

Ruby: "Can't let you guys have all the fun."

I smile.

Yang: "Then let's get going."

Getting ready we all head into Vale to speak with my guy.

Y/N POV

I finishing tightening the final bolt wiping the sweat off.

Y/N: "That should do it. Now the carburetor should be able to take more abuse."

I start cleaning up. But shutting the tool drawer a chill runs down my spine. Slightly exhaling frost is revealed. Looking over my shoulder I narrow my eyes. Walking out of the garage I see it dark out. To add to my suspicion all the lights around keep flickering. 

Y/N: "I know someone's out there. Show yourself."

The wind picks up. Following its path I see it going into the forest. Throwing on my jacket I walk into the forest. The deeper I go the more darkness seems to take over. Whispering then fills the air.

???: "Y/N."

I come to a stop. Looking I try to peer through the near pitch dark. A hand is then placed on my shoulder.

???: "I've been waiting for you."

I look seeing a little green hand.

Y/N: "Isn't it past your bedtime?"

They float in front of me, revealing themselves.

Y/N: "Invidia. Shouldn't you be stalking someone?"

She narrows her eyes. 

Invidia: "I've grown tired of these maggots."

She now smiles floating closer to me.

Invidia: "But you. I've always had my eyes on you."

She reaches for my cheek.

Invidia: "I want you Y/N~"

I grab her wrist.

Y/N: "Why're you here?"

She shows annoyance.

Invidia: "I could be asking you that. Last I heard you were drowning in booze."

Y/N: "I've changed."

She develops an amused smile.

Invidia: "That's bullshit and you know it. No one changes. We remain the same. Till the bitter end."

I tighten my grip. Her wrist cracks making her yelp in pain.

Y/N: "Answer the question. Why're you here?"

Invidia: "Time's are changing. Plans are changing."

Y/N: "What plans?"

Invidia: "Our goal."

I once more tighten my grip. She now wails in agony.

Y/N: "What goal?"

Invidia: "I cannot say."

Y/N: "Then you're of no use to me."

I reel my hand back.

Invidia: "Wait!! I cannot say because I do not know. I'm the only out of the loop. But I know someone who isn't."

Y/N: "Who?"

Invidia: "Sleeping Dragon."

Y/N: "How's a thrift store gonna help me?"

Invidia: "It's only a cover up. A front. Head to the back room and you'll see the owner. He'll tell you anything you wanna know."

Y/N: "You better not be lying."

Invidia: "I swear on my life I'm not."

Y/N: "What life?"

I send my hand through her chest, withdrawing her heart.

Invidia: *weakly* "Why?"

Y/N: "One thing I learned in this life. Never leave anything to chance when it comes to demons."

I crush her heart. She screams as she bursts into ashes. Flinging her blood off I head back to the garage. Hopping onto my bike I take off to where Invidia said to go.
