Lurking Darkness

R&R

You make it to the top of Atlas Academy, where General Ironwood's office is. You knock on the door.

"Come in." As you open the door, you're greeted to an open room, with one metal desk at the end.

"Ah Mr. Aspro, how are you feeling?" He asks you. Interlocking his hands on his desk.

"I imagine I'd feel better if I weren't stabbed in my chest." You joke.

"Still have some pain? That's normal unfortunately, extreme injuries like that last a while."

"Guess yours last half as long." You refer to the metal half of his body.

"Glad to see you still have your sense of humor. Now, what did you need to talk about?"

"So I wasn't here with the team earlier, what's going on? From what I heard, people hate you."
He sighs.

"We have a plan. Amity Colosseum is going to be changed into a new CCT Tower, we're going to launch it high into the atmosphere, out of reach of Grimm, so even if another CCT falls, we won't lose global communication."

"That's amazing."

"Exactly what I said."

"So, Team RWBY and JNR are assisting?" You walk closer to his desk.

"They already did, they've killed the Geist blocking our entry to the mine."

"That's great!"

"Exactly what I said." He smiles.

"So, do you know about Oz?" You sigh as you ask.

"I do. We're going to figure out a way to bring him back."

"Yea." You sigh again.

"Do you know where Team RWBY is staying?"

"Give me one second to look." He begins typing on his computer.

"Dorm Room 7, it'll be on the second level, once you're out the room, go to the left and you'll see the dorms."

"Thank you General."

"Friends call me James." He smiles.
You walk out of the door, down to the left and into the dorm area.

"Dorm 5... 6... 7!" You open the door to Ruby, Weiss and Yang.

"Y/n!! You're back!" All three of them attack you with tackles and hugs.

"Yea I'm back, and I'm better now, chest still hurts, but I'll survive."

"That's good Iceman. We missed you. Blake especially."

"I bet, speaking of which, where is she?"

"She went out to get some things, but for now, how about some R&R?" Yang says.

"I agree, we need a break." Weiss adds.

"YESS!!" Ruby screams.

"I'm down, what're we doing?"

"Was thinking we go down to the bar with Blake." Yang says.

"Well Ruby? What would you like to go do?"
"Hm. Maybe just go around town, look at stuff, maybe shopping?"

"Okay." Weiss states, pulling her Lien card out.

"Alrighty, when's Blake getting back?"

"Right now, actually." You turn around and are greeted by Blake, in her new attire, a black bodysuit, with a white zipper jacket that she keeps unzipped, except for the very top. You whistle.

"Hey babe." She says.

"Woah.. meow..." You joke. This makes her laugh loudly, she must've loved that.

"That was a good one." She's still trying to catch her breath. You also notice her hair, she cut it short.

"Your hair looks fantastic."

"Thank you, so, where are we going?"

"Yang suggested you and me and her all go out to the bar, Ruby and Weiss were going to go shopping." You tell her.

"That sounds nice... or..." She moves over to Yang and whispers in her ear.

"Ohhhhh..... OH. Oh Okay...." Yang and Blake look at you.

"What?" You ask.

"Ruby, Weiss, we're all gonna go shopping, Blake wants some time with him." Weiss's eyes widen.

"Uhm? Why?" Ruby innocently asks.

"Ruby, come on let's go." Weiss orders.

"But—!" Weiss is already dragging Ruby out of the room by her cloak. Yang follows winking at you and Blake. She slowly walks to the door, swaying her hips as she walks over. Blake locks the door.

"So hero... how's your heart pumping?"

"Doing a lot better." It takes you a second.
It just hit you what's happening.

"OH SHIT!" You laugh at your naïveté. She laughs as well.

"What's the occasion?"

"Well, I decided that you needed to be treated for being such an amazing boyfriend. You've been so fantastic to me, loving, caring, kind and patient. You need to be rewarded." Blake says as she slowly struts back to you.

"Not to mention you saved my life, again."

"I wish it never had to happen like that anyway." You say.

"It's okay babe." Blake begins to undress. You realize exactly what she's wearing under the jacket, you chuckle a bit.

"Is... that a 'catsuit'?" She rolls her eyes.

"Ha ha ha." She pushes you down forcefully playfully...

A few hours later...

"So... in a minute... you wanna go train?" Blake asks completely out of breath.

"I'm down..." You huff and puff. And you both take a fantastic nap, cuddling with each other on Blake's bed.

Training Fight time! Again thanks for reading! -P
