RWBY Lion Faunus x Blake Belladonna

Attack on the Belladonna's

Blake POV

I am out on the balcony mentally preparing for tonight's mission to get signatures to help save Haven Academy, before I turn to go back inside but I then feel something under the railing. It feels like paper, I pick it up and look around before opening it. It's a message from Ilia saying she wants to try to get away from the White Fang and wants to talk. I think it over and walk back inside and see (Y/n) teaching Sun some fighting techniques he picked up on the road.

Blake: (Y/n)?

(Y/n): Yeah, Blake?

Blake: I need your guys' help.

I walk to the specified location, which is a darkened alleyway.

Blake: Ilia?

Ilia: I'm here.

On instinct I grab Gambol Shroud as Ilia appears from the darkness.

Blake: Ilia, I know you're scared, but you don't have to be. (Y/n), my family and I, we can keep you safe.

Ilia: *with her hands up* I'm sorry.

Blake: You can make it up to me by helping to stop Corsac and Fennec.

Ilia: No. I'm sorry.

I hear footsteps and react too late and am tackled to the ground by a bat faunus, my weapon drops at Ilia's feet. I struggle to my feet after overcoming the shock of having the wind knocked out of me without my Aura up, I try to say something but am wrapped by a spider faunus' webbing and fall to the ground again.

Blake: Ilia! What are you doing?

Ilia: I tried to warn you, Blake. I'm sorry.

Blake: Don't tell me you're sorry.

Ilia: But I am. I am sorry it has to be this way. But you and your family are holding the Faunus back.

Blake: Because we're trying to protect people? In what world do you live in where attacking the innocent is the right thing to do?

Ilia: The same one as you! There's no such thing as innocent. There's no right thing to do; only what's best for us. There's the humans that still hate the Faunus, and there's the others who stand by and let the hate happen! But you know what snaps out hate? Fear. I don't like hurting people, but I'll tell you this: it's gotten us results.

Blake: Yeah, look where it's gotten you.

Ilia: *looks away* We all have to make sacrifices for the greater good. No matter how much it hurts.

Blake: And you think killing me is really for the greater good?

Ilia: No. But getting rid of your family is, and that pathetic excuse for a lion.

My face turns into horror, the White Fang plan to kill the people I care most about. I have to get out of this, somehow.

Blake: You wouldn't. You can't! I won't let you!

Ilia: I know. That's why you're being sent to Mistral. To Adam.

Blake: Ilia, please. You don't have to do this. This isn't you!

Ilia: Yes it is. But I guess back then you were too busy falling for Adam to notice. I was always jealous of the way you looked at him, even more at the way you looked at (Y/n) at the rally. I wanted you to look at me that way. *eyes turn red* But we can't always get what we want. Yuma, with me. You lot get her to the docks.

Ilia and Yuma walk away leaving me with the other seven White Fang members, as I got pulled up onto my feet.

Blake: NOW!
