For Fire and Ice(RomanXNeo) RWBY Fanfiction

Tall Tells and Hard Spills part 3

Roman's POV

The beautiful pink and brown eyes of a girl with odd colored hair stood over me as the pain racked my body. The rags she wore were torn and bloody.  

"What's your name sweetheart?" The pain radiated as she gave me a deep blue liquid from a vial that she had gotten off of the leader who sat in a bloody heap in the corner.

The young girl pointed to her mouth and motioned that she couldn't speak which was a shame as she was beautiful and I wondered what her name was.

20 minutes prior.

"Listen brat you will pay my boss or..." I pointed to the dust crystals lining the walls with tables that held metal remnants of weapons. "Operation will be keel over quicker than your faunus rights group." The denizens of the gang seemed to take great offense to this remark as they reached for weapons.

Their leader a petite blonde female whose hair looked like a wild tumbleweed with a lip full of gold and purple piercings that made her look like a makeshift pincushion stopped the gang before a smile creeped upon her face. 

"Of course we will pay your boss. Does your boss accept blood?" The leader lunged forward on the attack with a deep blade made of a scarlet steel that radiated heat as it sent shockwaves of the scarlet dust particles into the air like a scarlet snowstorm.

10 minutes prior to the present.

Neo's POV

'He had to come this way.' I felt the cold air brush my tricolored hair with its rough fingers. I repressed a shiver as the man's cologne radiated through wind toward the rough buildings of the compound that the Icy hearts a cruel gang of Faunus that killed people who got close enough.

I shuddered as I felt panic as shots and explosions rang through the compound. The light from the explosions making a show of light that eclipsed the stars for a few moments. My body responded with panic, the fight or flight response was going on and I felt flight beginning to win over fight when the sight of a splintered cane came over the rough gray stone brick scattering snow from its top.

I took control of the fear that has been keeping me down for years and rushed over the top of the wall.

.....

The inside of the base was mayhem the members of the gang rushing to the central building. Scarlet dust was going off in all directions as fires began to spread through the area as green dust went off giving the fire the necessary oxygen to continue its journey down the compound.

The chaos that ensued made it easy to illusion myself into the group going to the center. My hair turned a deep scarlet with a pair of black cat ears on top of my head. The rags disappeared into a makeshift uniform that the gang wore. I felt the heat pass through my new found fur causing sweat to form down my face as we entered the center building.

The sight of the leader over the red haired man was discouraging as she held a knife with a green liquid seething from the blade. She brought it down into his thigh and he screamed and cursed as the liquid began to travel up his bloodstream his veins turning a deep ugly green as it went.

He was going to die. Panic ran through my body before an explosion lept from my body scattering all the faunus into the walls their heads hit with force with their eyes rolling back into their head. Startled at the power that just revealed itself from myself I ran toward the leader who no longer had a pulse searching her person frantically for a cure.

My finger grazed the feeling of glass that I brought out a deep blue liquid shining inside that looked to be a antivenom. I looked toward the man his body was convulsing as his arms began to turn the shade of green. I rushed toward him with the vial before forcing it down his throat.

The green look of his veins began to fade as the antivenom did its job. Eventually he came around his green eyes gracing my now snow white and pink eyes as the illusion broke.
