Raven POV
Y/N and I made it to the camp, they were near completion of packing up, I do want to see what the Maiden knows before we move, it's going to be a long road ahead. I went into my tent and saw her still there....but she's smiling, talking to John.
Me: what does she have to say
Katrina: well....a lot has happened
John: Raven, before you get mad
I back handed him in the face.
Me: go wait outside......I'll deal with you later.
Y/N: tough break kid
I heard him leave.
Me: we tried the easy way....now we do it my way
Katrina: I'm the Spring Maiden, I've fled many villages because I'm being hunted....people were slaughtered by Grimm...even other people, STRONGER THAN THE AVERAGE MAN.
Me: GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF
Katrina: PEOPLE DIED BECAUSE OF ME
I slapped her and put her on the ground
Me: ENOUGH....you are coming with this camp, we will train you, but don't think for a second that we'll always protect you, this is my last act of generosity towards you.
I turned around and left the tent.
John: Listen Raven
Me: we're leaving, you have 4 minutes to pack your things, she's going with you, whatever you don't pack, you leave.
John: yes ma'am
Y/N: I thought you were going to yell at him
Me: I'm done with yelling for a day....Y/N, would you like to stay with us, I know you have your mission...but maybe
Y/N: sure, the asset would love to be used again
Me: it's not like that, I'm not asking as a bandit leader....I'm asking as a friend
I put my hand out.
Y/N: deal
He grabbed my hand and we shook on it.
TimeSkip 10 minutes
We began walking to our next set up.
Me: Y/N....I need you to keep an eye on John and Katrina.....something about those two have me a little off
Y/N: isn't it obvious Raven, the boy likes her, and she like him.
Me: and how do you know that?
Y/N: because I've seen that look on hundreds of people in my life, hell, I know you like someone.
I blushed a little bit
Y/N: don't let it get to you, I won't tell her
Me: HER?
Y/N started laughing
Y/N: don't worry, I know you like a male, come on, I always can't be serious
Me: oh you're so funny
Y/N: no need to be sarcastic
Me: fine....I have a question, she mentioned strong people....what could she be talking about?
Y/N: Faunus....I've had a fair share of fighting, especially from one
Me: who?
Y/N: Tyrian Callows, you can say I worked with him....he wanted more and went with Salem, I decided I like what I'm doing. To this day, when we see eachother, we fight to kill eachother....
Me: how long have you know him
Y/N: a good 15 years
Me: can you go back there and ask her about him, maybe he's the reason
Y/N: sure....
Y/N POV
I turned around and walked towards them.
Me: hello children; I have some questions for this spring Maiden. And before you even try to stab me Katrina, your hands are tied and if they become untied I will stab you.
She put the knife away.
Me: good, now I was told to ask you a few questions
Katrina: what do you want
Me: this string you mentioned....was he Faunus or man
Katrina: there was a man and a Faunus
Me: ah....tell me, what type of Faunus was this
Katrina: Scorpion
Me: ah, you had a run in with Tyrian Callows, and I can only assume Hazel....how disappointing....alright carry on
I made my way back to the front with Raven
Me: it's Tyrian...I'd suggest training all of your men, he knows weaknesses and will not give up easily.
Raven: we'll start training the day after we set up camp.
Me: sounds like a plan to me
I heard animal sounds in the trees, but I've been hearing them since they packed.
Me: Run.....
Raven: excuse me
Me: there's something in the trees
Raven: like what?
Me: White Fang
A man came out of the trees.
Me: Adam Taurus....
Adam: I know you helped us....but I can't let a human live
Me: I understand that
He pulled out his sword, as did I
Me: your move
