Lurking Darkness

Bound by Bonds

While you, Ruby, Penny, and Harriet take out Grimm, you are contacted on comms.

"Y/n, it's Qrow, we need you to come to my position, Ironwood wants us for a specific op."

"I'm on my way." You end comms.

"Ruby! I got to go find Qrow and Clover."
She makes an ok with her fingers. As you run to Qrow, you take out Grimm on the way, left and right.

"Alright kid. We gotta go set up for an ambush." Qrow yells you.

"Ambush for who?"

"Tyrian Callows." He adds.

"Who is that?"

"I'll tell you in a minute Pyrrha."

"Let's go now." You say angrily. As you three are walking. Pyrrha speaks.

"So what's happened while I was gone?"
"Well, as you saw, I've gotten crazy control of my Semblance."

"I did see, I'm very impressed."

"Me and Blake are engaged, you know that too."

"Mhm."

"Ummm, Yang got impaled."

"What? When?"

"Haven got invaded by the people who destroyed Beacon, we stopped them and got a relic."

"A 'relic'?"

"Yea, it's a lot to explain. Really powerful important objects, there are gods who made the planet, etc."

"Oh my, that can't be good."

"Umm what else... Yang and Weiss are dating." She laughs. You say nothing in response.

"You're not joking are you?" She sounds worried.

"Nope. They're actually really good with each other."

"That's good."

"I've almost died, a lot since Beacon."

"Really?"

"I was staying with Ruby and Yang in Patch after Beacon. Around 2 months after, I left to come to Haven, I had to find answers as to why you... Anyway. I left and ended up getting surrounded by Grimm. I killed them all, not before an Ursa took half of my back with him, Ruby, Ren, Nora, and Jaune found me."

"Oh my goodness, I'm glad you're okay."

"I just have a badass scar."

"How's Jaune doing."

"He's doing well now, when Beacon fell, he wasn't good at all. He was like me. Destroyed." She stays silent.

"At Haven, after Cinder and everyone arrived, his rage was bright, almost like mine, he tried to attack her but it was futile. He told her his life didn't matter, that only we matter. After he watched Yang get impaled... his Semblance unlocked. And by unlocked I mean he used it for the first time."

"His Semblance?"

"He can reset ones aura to 100%. Almost as if that person never got hurt in the first place. Combined with my warm healing, Yang ended up making a full recovery. He's become incredible Pyrrha, you'd be proud of him."

"I am."

"Oh and there's an evil woman named Salem. She's trying to kill us all, she's also immortal."

"Oh, fun."

"Oh one more thing, Professor Ozpin is a little 14 year old farmhand now. But he's not here right now."

"What!?"

"Yea, I'll explain later."

"We're here kid. Get up on that perch."

"Shouldn't the Qrow get on his perch?" You joke.

"Funny." You three all get ready to ambush Callows, Qrow will be the bait. It works.
"Qrow Branwen... how fortunate for us to meet on the night." He snarks.

"You and me have a score to settle anyway." Qrow replies. Tyrian runs in and tries to attack, but just before he can attack, a hook comes his way, he dodges it. You and Clover arrive from your spots.

"Looks like our score is going to have to wait."

"Looks like we all have a bone to pick with you." Clover adds.

"You'll both have to wait your turns. He's mine." Qrow says. Tyrian is visibly upset.

"Dammit..." He says gritting his teeth.

"Tyrian, you're not getting out of here without handcuffs." You threaten.

"The child threatens me?" He laughs loudly.

"Yes, he is, it's not a threat. It's a promise." Qrow says to him.

"We'll see birdy." He jokes. Tyrian rushes you, but Clover keeps him at bay, you and Qrow both charge at the madman, he is thrown into a 1v2 and he's losing, he knows he is. You manage to land a heavy blow to his temple. He turns around.

"You bastard."

"Aww did I make the psychopath mad?" He grunts and rushes again, this time much faster, you change Ekdíkisi to sword form for CQC, you block all of his attacks, he uses his tail to trip you, just before he pounced on you, Clover is wrapping him up in fishing line.

"AARRRGHHHAHAHAHAHA!!!" He spins, putting everyone at distance.

"Aww poor boy, I just thought of something, do you think Pyrrha suffered?" You get angry, instantly dropping your temperature.
"Don't listen to him, I was okay. I did not suffer." Your eyes widen and you calm down.

"No, I don't think so." He looks stunned.
Just then Qrow comes in from behind and hits him the back of he head, knocking him out.

"Good riddance." Qrow says.

"C'mon, let's take him to Atlas." Clover says.

Oooh shiiiittt it's finna get guud.
