Old Soul ( RWBY Fanfic with my OC)

Chapter 65

" Stay calm," The dark figure told her as it hovered in front of her face. The muck was thick but also watery, she couldn't understand how. She could feel something watching her, bigger than anything she's ever seen or worse, there was just too many of them to begin with. " Master-Veena, try opening your eyes." She opened one eye and what she found was not of her expectations. The dark pool that surrounded her was full of emotion, like when she visited the pool of light or when she meets any spirits or more likely, when she 'tames' grimm. She could taste the same emotion within the grimm, the creation of the god of darkness. Envy. It was all there, the feeling of jealousy and a longing. A longing for appreciation. This pool, the grimm, were reflections of the god of darkness' true emotions in reaction to the god of light, the elder brother. The grimm were envious of humans as both gods created them and they were cherished by both gods. Which is why they don't attack the other creations of the god of light, they only have the natural competition of territory.

She understood now, she could feel the pool glaring at her. A creature being formed to kill her right away. But then the feeling dissipated, she could feel it staring into her eyes. She could feel anger and out of nowhere her eyes started to burn. She screamed as the pain felt like fire boiling her eyes. The much entered her mouth and it burned her insides. She wasn't a being of pure light, she'll die here. She doesn't wanna die yet. Not for this life. She was afraid and her arms were flailing.

" Master, calm down. You'll live again and we'll have another chance." It said to her but she shook her head. She doesn't want to start over, she wanted to keep living and wake up in the morning with her family. She screwed her eyes shut and screamed it's name, the name she gave him, Pyx. Her eyes stopped burning and when she opened them she saw the depths of the pool. It was, beautiful. In it's own way. The god of darkness just wanted his creations to be accepted. That's what the energy converts into when she 'tames' grimm. Acceptance. Her eyes were hazy and she was running out breath. She let go.

" No!" Ruby cried as she crashed into the room with her team. She quickly cut off the grimm arms and pulled her out. Oscar had just woken up and aided Veena. " Keep her safe."

" Ruby Rose, the little silver eyed girl whose caused me so much trouble. None of this would've been necessary if you hadn't refused to come when I asked Tyrian to bring you here. And her," She glanced at Veena. " She's killed him and I hope no more than that." Ruby exchanged looks with her team and readied their weapons.

" You can't be killed or reasoned with. That's what I've been told. I'm starting to believe that but, is this really what you want?"

" Yes."

" Riza. Come on," Alistor urged her to keep awake as Jaune healed her. " You're gonna be fine. Just hang on,"

" Where's....Fangs?" She muttered as she stirred. They almost forgot about him. No wonder it had been so quiet, Hazel was on his knees but his eyes never moved from looking into the faunus' crimson eyes. He was feeding off him slowly, taking every bit he can take out of it. Blood started to run down his shoulders as his tolerance for pain was fading. " Fangs...stop it." She started slowly. " Vlad! That's enough." She raised her voice. He quickly turned his gaze and blinked several times as he made sure he wasn't dreaming. " Hey, Fangs." She greeted him with a weak smile as he approached her. Hazel collapsed as he was released from the gaze. Vlad cupped her face and stared. " What are you-" He kissed her with all the love he could muster. Glad to see her safe.

They exchanged blow after blow. Salem was strong and her attacks neverending. They had a limit to their use of aura but she did not. Oscar stayed by Veena's side. Doing his best to get her to breath, a heart beat, anything. But she was unresponsive. Yang lost her balance and tripped, a blast heading straight for her but a red sword powered by dust and magic blocked it.

" Stay away from my daughter!" Raven snarled with her wine red eyes glowing with her maiden powers. Yang looked at her in disbelief, the very mother who had abandoned her twice, had finally come to claim her once again.

" Mom." Raven helped her up but kept her eyes on Salem.

" Let's show her what happens when you mess with my daughter."

A/N SO...THE NEXT CHAPPIE IS A SHOCKER. SO ENJOY!
