A Different Huntsman (a RWBY fanfiction)

chapter 10

As soon as Mesagi got to Beacon, he panted, holding onto his knees, as Professor Ozpin was standing at the gates.

"Mesagi! Goodness, what happened?" He asked, seemingly panicked as he went to Mesagi.

"I. . . Was running away from the White Fang," Mesagi replied, panting slightly.

"What? What did you do to get their attention to yourself?" Ozpin asked.

"You told me to do a recon mission, remember?" Mesagi asked. He blinked and was shocked when Ozpin shook his head.

"I don't remember giving you such a task," Ozpin replied, and Mesagi looked down.

"And even if there was a mission, I would've put you in a group to do such missions," Ozpin continued.

"Then. . . Several hours ago, where were you?" Mesagi asked the professor.

"That is a bit too personal to ask, but if you do want to know, I was out in Vale," Ozpin replied.

"Then that would've meant that I met someone else that looked like you," Mesagi concluded.

Ozpin nodding, slowly taking this in. "We must find out who had tried to imitate me. For now, Mesagi, try and take a rest. You deserve it," Ozpin ordered.

Mesagi nodded, before out of instinct, Mesagi pushed Ozpin away, before flying a few feet away, as an explosion occured behind him.

Mesagi couldn't hear a single thing, as he saw Roman and Cinder, approaching Mesagi. "Y'know, that cane of yours really doesn't suit you, Roman. Makes you look like an old man," Mesagi felt himself saying it.

As he slowly regain his hearing, he heard what Roman had said. ". . . Told anyone about it?"

"No. . . Not yet anyways but. . . You know what, just kill me already," Mesagi said.

"Well, I will do that even if you didn't told me to," Roman said, the tip of his cane near to Mesagi's heart.

"Is what I wanted to say, but I will not kill you," Roman continued, pulling the cane away from Mesagi.

"But. . . We want you to come with us as a hostage. If you do not obey. . ." Cinder made a ball of fire on her palm and threw it to the shocked Ozpin, and it barely missed.

Mesagi stood there, trying to think. "I'm also doing this because Neo wants you alive," Roman continued.

'What? Neo? Why?' Messgi questioned, but with the amount of time he had given to himself, he had no choice.

. . . . . . . . . . .

Mesagi sat uncomfortably, being surrounded by grunts of the White Fang.

All of his weapons were confiscated which left him with nothing but his clothes.

"God. . . This is so uncomfortable," Mesagi said, accidentally out loud.

"What? Want to make it fun instead?" One of the grunts asked, a fist raised.

.

"Why did you think Neo wanted that guy alive?" Roman asked Cinder, both of them manually controlling the aircraft.

Behind them was a metallic door with a glass window, showing the grunts were fighting Mesagi bare handed.

"I'm not sure. She does seem to have some interest in him though," Cinder replied to Roman, which made Roman's left eye to twitch.

The window then shows Mesagi doing a jumping punch to a grunt in front of him.

"Why are we even doing this? I feel like a stupid Faunus," Roman muttered quietly, and that was also when Mesagi had broke the metallic door, bruises all over his face and body.

"What the hell happened?!" Cinder asked, glaring at Mesagi. "They. . . Picked a fight with. . . You know who, and the result. . ." He shakily pointed a finger to the grunts on the floor, as they were groaning, holding onto their knees, stomach, face, arms or crotch.

"You did this all by yourself?" Roman asked, narrowing his eyes at him.

"Nope. I just used. . . My. . . Surroun-" Mesagi suddenly closed his eyes and fainted.

"He's really something. He's like the blonde in team RWBY, but he's also different from her," Roman said with a sigh.
