Whispers of the Dark (A RWBY fanfic) (Book One)

Chp 8: Pluto is an Idiot

"Pluto, you're an idiot." I sighed, rolling my eyes as the idiot sat down beside me.

"I know," he laughed, flicking his new, surgically added ears ( he had a tail now too.) 

Don't ask how this happened, he just began to take the 'I am Teresa's dog' thing way to far, and things just went downhill from there.... and then he became a faunus.

Never, ever, in my life had I been more disappointed. 

Well, no, that's not true. I was more upset when Pluto discovered his semblance.

Pluto, if you didn't know, has the semblance of density manipulation (which means he can basically make stuff go through other stuff, including himself.) 

We were in the Forest of Forever Falls when we found out. The White Fang had been hanging about there for awhile then, but Glynda was with us, so we felt pretty well protected. Unfortunately, Pluto was being a pure idiot (as normal) and wandered off. So much for strength in numbers....

Either way, he was found by a member of the White Fang, and those guys have always been brutal. You have to understand though, we had just begun our training, and Pluto was not exactly ready to take on any real challenge yet. 

Long story short, the White Fang guy shot him in the head.

Pluto, at the last minute, manipulated the density of the bullet, which just turned into water and kind of fell apart. And guess what happened to the white fang member? Let's just say he took a break and became one with the ocean... literally. 

"I'm gonna cut off your ears," I told him, as he mimicked a wolf howl. 

"No violence, Kennith!" Alex called from her bunk. 

"Yeah no violence," Pluto remarked. I responded by slapping his stupid face. "Ow!" He rubbed his cheek, but smiled a moment later and wiggled his ears again. I stuck my tongue out at him, and turned to Legend, who was hanging upside down from my bunk. She made a monkey noise and winked, which I didn't know how to respond. 

Pluto made a monkey noise too, and I glared at him. Behind me, Legend returned the noise.

In the end they were just making weird noises at each other, until Weiss Schnee came in and ordered them to be quiet. Pluto, being the most horrible person in the world, though, yelled out, "BITE ME!"

Did I mention Pluto was an idiot?

Weiss turned to him, eyes burning in pure fury. "What did you say?!" she practically hissed.

"I SAID BITE ME!!!" Pluto stood, "I'M GONNA BE LOUD IF I WANT TO AND YOUR NOT GONNA STOP ME!!!"

I was done with Pluto. Absolutely done. 

I won't even say what happened, but let me just tell everyone out there that in the end Weiss left without a scratch and Pluto remained with a large slash down his right arm while Legend, Tressa, Alex and I all laughed hysterically. After getting over my laughing fit, I was able to get some disinfectant for Pluto and stitch up what would soon be his first scar (and I swear to God he better not say it makes him more manly.)

"Hey," we all looked up to see Ruby enter the doorway, "sorry about Weiss, she gets like that. But... um, have you seen Jaune? I'm kind of worried, he just disappeared, and Cardin has been bullying him all day. I can't find Pyrrha either, but I'm not worried about her."

I exchanged a knowing smile with Alex, and turned to Ruby, "Nope. Haven't seen him."

"Okay, thanks anyways." She dashed out of the room.

"Well," I said, "looks like Jaunedice has begun."
