The sun shines over the horizon as the G.D.S. Drake moves along course over the seas of Remnant. Most of the passengers where out and about or stored up in their cabins as they slowly approached the city of Vale. Our protagonist was one of those that stayed in his cabin. He was playing around with his semblance my making overly ornate weapons. This also acted as training as it helped with aura efficiency and expanded his aura like any other muscle.

After a while of doing this the teen is rudely interrupted by a knock at his door. He ignores it. The knock turns to a bang. A tick mark forms over the teen's head as his aura training comes to an end. He gets up and stretches a little. Unlike his usual attire of a black suit the boy is wearing grey cargo shorts, a black shirt with the depiction of a warlock riding an undead unicorn with the name "EminenceMaul" written above, and a sleeveless leather jacket.

He approached the door and looked through the peep hole. On the other side of the door was a very annoyed looking faunus dude, horns of a ram jutting out of his head and curling back around. He wore the uniform of someone who worked on the ship but somethin bout him screamed danger to Y/n. None the less he opened the door and asked, "Yo what up?"

The man glared at Y/n for a moment while muttering the word finally before straightening up, "The Captain has requested that all passengers make their way to the cafeteria."

Y/n quirked a brow, "If Captain Steel wanted that why didn't she make an announcement?" After asking the question he looked around to see if anyone else was around only to see nobody.

The man's eye twitched, "Listen Hu- Listen, Captain Steel says there's a swarm of Lancers on a collision course with the ship. She doesn't want to invite alarm till the passengers are in a safe location."

"Oh is that so," Y/n asked as his hand slowly reached behind his back. His hand then surged forward as he bashed the ram faunus over the head with a cinder block he constructed. While the man was thrown off by the attack Y/n dragged him into his cabin and began to strike him with several elbow blows before kicking him to the floor and using his semblance to make another cinder block to smash into the back of the man's head. He stopped before making contact upon noticing the dude didn't even have aura... also he was knocked out.

Y/n scratched the back of hid head as he pulled a cig and lighter from his cargo shorts, lit the cig, and began smoking. He taps the cig above the dude as he speaks, "Dumb fuck attempting to set up a hostage situation without even knowing who the captain of the ship is. Whoever is in charge of this op is also a bumbling idiot for sending someone so clearly racist towards humans." Y/n leaves the cig in his mouth as he cracks various body parts. Taking it out he speaks, "Now, which to tackle first? Secure the bridge or the hostages?"

He continues to stretch and get limber as he thinks aloud, "Chow hall is a level below and further away while the bridge is directly above my location though two floors up... Bridge almost certainly houses the captain of this operation, presumably White Fang affiliated but it may be a splinter cell as the escalation of violence far exceeds the norm. Additionally might be an unknown organization using Faunus as a scapegoat if the ram is any consideration. I doubt they'd go beyond roughing up some of the human hostages..."

Y/n finished his stretching as he approached the window of his cabin and continues his outward thoughts, "It's best to remove the head." He made a sledgehammer and smashed it into the glass of the window. He peaked out of it and directly up to the bridge. "Oum i'm glad auras help with the cold," He chuckled as he created an aura knife and struck it into the side of the ship hull. After securing it he created another for his left hand and struck. The teen dragged himself out of the small window after a painfully tight squeeze and began to slowly climb his way up to the bridge of the air ship.
