Ok so this is really really late so it's gonna be really really long and it's gonna have art work and stuff and I own nothing. The OC Milo "Hunter" belongs to @CoDHunter95 And I am really super duper ultra sorry that I have not done this sooner.


    Neo walked swiftly through the small town that had been obliterated by grim. Her umbrella twirled and danced as she continued to search for Roman.

    She missed him dearly. He is the closest thing she has had to family. She tilted her head up to the sky to try and retaliate against the tears threatening to drench her face. She stopped for a moment, something catching her eye. She let out a small cry of anguish as she stumbled upon Roman's hat.

        It was scorched and dirtied, but it was his. She could use this to find him. A coy smile twisted its way onto her lips, she needs is a faunus.

      That is how Neo managed to wind up in this predicament. A scowl of frustration coating her face as she attempts to tell the information broker that she only speaks English.

    "¿Que?" The broker leans in, watching the small girl as she tries to make slower hand signals.

   "No hablo inglès." The broker begins to shake his head.

    Irritated, Neo tries again. However, before she can finish she is stopped by a gentle touch. A trembling, red faced boy stepped forward and began to sign to the information broker.

     'You are looking for a faunus to help you with tracking someone?' The boy, who Neo now knows is named Milo, signs.

     'Yes.' She replies.

    'What do you have that can be used to track this person with?'

     'This.' Neo pulls Roman's dirtied hat off of her head.

     'May I?' He signs, holding out a shaky hand. Neo hesitantly hands it over, eyeing him the entire time - which really doesn't help the nervous faunus.

   Milo brought the hat to his nose and gave it a whiff. He could smell her sweet scent, and another one. A male human. He felt a twinge of jealousy, but brushed it off. 'I have only just met the girl. Get a grip.'

      He gave Neo a nervous smile, 'I can help you, if you would like me to do so.'

'Please.' Neo, feeling a twinge of hope, signed.

     Milo shuddered in discomfort. He thought it would be an easy-peasy trek to find ice cream's lost boyfriend, but no. He has been searching for about a week with this girl. Yes, he found her attractive and all, but that did not change the fact that he definately is not a people person.

      Neo walked behind him. She was losing hope by the minute. All she wanted was her big brother/father figure back. 'Is that too much to ask?' She could tell the faunus ahead of her was uncomfortable, and she felt a pang of guilt for putting him through all of the parasites and grim that lurked within the forest.

      Milo suddenly came to a stop. Neo, not paying attention, ricocheted off of his back. She let out a gasp and fell backwards, straight into a puddle of mud. She let out an inaudible groan as her clothes became mud soaked.

       Milo, being as bashful as ever, began to tremble and  frantically sign sorry over and over again. Neo shook her head while pushing herself to her feet again.

      She looked him right in the eyes and signed 'Keep walking. We search until dawn.'

       Milo nodded, although he disagreed.

    Eight hours had passed and the trail dead ended- quite literally.

     'His scent is now one of burnt flesh and death. I do not believe he is still alive.'

      Neo looked to the sky trying to fight back tears,

'So, you left without saying goodbye?'

  'I miss you.'

                 'Please come back...'
  
                                                'Brother.'
  
    The small girl broke. Tears uncontrollably streamed down her face as she fell to her knees onto the sod below. Silent cries left her tremoring lips. Nothing could hurt worse than this.

     Milo knelt down infront of her and placed a hand on her shoulder; he was trying his best to comfort her wothout stepping out of his own comfort zone. To his surprise Neo suddenly threw her arms around his neck, almost knocking him to the ground.

    Instead of pushing her away or attempting to walk away, he began to rub his hand in circles on her back.

    When she was done sobbing, she pulled away and signed,
'Thank you.'

    He gave her a small nod, pushing himself to his feet in a supple fashion. He then offered her a hand, which she gladly took.

    As they walked out of the forest, Neo held her head down. Milo guided her with a hand between her shoulder blades, giving her a comforting pat every now and then.

    The sunrise broke above the tree tops, shining onto the pair as they walked on home.

    A couple hundred feet behind them was a wooden cross staked in a clearing with a feathered hat atop it and weaponized cane against it.

_______

      Neo and Milo separated at the clearing, their week track back to town now over. Neo swiftly tucked a piece of fabric with her number written on it into his hand.

   On the fabric were the words:
    Call for payment.

   Milo smiled and cheered within his mind. He didn't want money, a table for two at a resturaunt downtown would suffice.

Okay,  I've been out of the writing world for awhile so I hope this is good. I am so sorry it took so long but more are promised and more speedy updates are going to happen. If you want to know why I was out for a loooonnnnggg time, I was completely snowed under with college and high school work. Enough of my excuses, I am back now and and all of your service, in the writing department that is. So, if you have a request please message me privately because it is easier that way and don't be shy. And I love all of you and hope you had a great Christmas, Hanukkah, New Years, whatever you celebrate.
