Description
(A/N: I do not own RWBY that masterpiece belongs to Roosterteeth and Monty Oum, R.I.P)Chapter 7: Dancing Demons
Iskandar took a breath in, he had just had a shower. It was friday night Iskandar was wearing a black leather jacket a red shirt with a dragon on it and denim jeans, "So how do I look?" He asked his teammates
"You look great, and OOOOH GET YOUR FUCKING HEAD SHOT!!" Francesca said playing her video game she said smiling with joy.
"Yang would definitely be impressed sensei" Leonidas said.
"You look hot, is someone trying to get Yang into bed?" Naomi said making Iskandar blush hard, "If so, maybe you, Yang, and I can have a three-"
"NO" He yelled "Anyway I'm heading out try not to kill each other okay" Iskandar said walking outside the door.
"Hey I got an idea" Naomi said.
"If it involves nudity and your hands on me, I swear to gods I'm going to pummel you" Francesca said.
"No, I was going to suggest we go spy on Iskandar's date" Naomi said.
"Hmm, it beats staying here all night, alright I'm in" Francesca said.
"That is totally dishonest and a complete violation of trust,”
Naomi and Francesca looked at Leonidas with a deadpan look Eventually he just caved in knowing he would not get out of this. He wouldn’t admit it but he was curious too. “Fine....I'm in" Leonidas said as the three left the room following Iskandar.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iskandar knocked on the door Ruby opened it "Yang your date's here" Ruby called. "So what are you guys doing tonight?" Ruby asked.
"Dinner and dancing" Iskandar said.
"Okay I'm ready", Yang said wearing a crop top with a flame decal, black jacket with a her symbol in yellow and a white skirt with her regular boots and scarf, her ember celica were dormant on her wrists. Iskandar blushed at the sight of her and she did the same to him. "Just let me get some makeup on"
"Wait you don't have any makeup on?" Iskandar said questionably
"Yeah, why" Yang said.
"I don’t think you need, it you look amazing already" Iskandar said causing Ruby to go 'aww'.
Yang gave him a light punch in the shoulder, "Aww you, sweet talker you," Yang said teasingly "Well later guys don't wait up" Yang said as they left for the garage
"You can come out now" Blake said and Leonidas teleported into the room with Francesca and Naomi
"How did you know they were there?" Ruby asked Blake
"A Better question would be ‘what are you guys doing?’" Weiss asked.
"Spying on Iskandar and Yang's date.Do you wish to come?" Leonidas said.
"Well I gotta look out for my Sis, I'm in" Ruby said.
"Well, there isn’t much to study for this early in the year anyway" Weiss said.
"Thank god for that.” Francesca said.
"I’m staying right-" before Blake could finish her comment Ruby gave her the puppy dog eyes. She tried to resist the pouty silver eyes of adorable cuteness... But alas... "Fine let's go" Blake said.
"Oh yeah! Let's roll team,” Ruby said as the group ran to catch up with them.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iskandar and Yang made there way to the garage where she kept her motorcycle "Damn, nice motorcycle" Iskandar said.
"Thanks her name's Bumblebee." Yang said.
"What like the Transformer?" Iskandar asked.
"Yeah I guess kinda like that, hope on" she said as she put her helmet on and mounted herself on the bike Iskandar sat behind her putting his hand on her shoulders
"It's okay if you want to put your hands on my waist if you like" Yang offered
"Okay" Iskandar nervously took a hold of Yang's waist so he would not fall off while driving. ‘Okay, so have some dinner, go dancing have a fun night, simple as that, and Naomi kept saying this was a date, man Yang has some nice firm hips WAIT WHY THE HELL AM I THINKING ABOUT THAT, OH DAMN YOU NAOMI’ Iskandar mentally yelled.
"Okay hold on" and with that there was a roar of the engine and they took off to the city, Iskandar yelling in fear,
the rest of team RWBY and DMON entered the garage to see them leave.
"Dang it! we missed them!" Ruby said.
"How are we going to catch them now?" Weiss said.
"We'll take my car." Leonidas said,
“Wait what?” Francesca and Naomi said in simultaneous confusion as Leonidas pulled out a pair of keys pressing the car lock the car alarm to a green and black striped Camaro.
"YOU HAVE A CAR?!?!?!? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US" Francesca all screeched.
"You guys didn't ask, I got it as a going away present from my sensei" Leonidas said
“Holy Fu-... how did your sensei get a CAMARO!?!?!?” Naomi asked in complete shock.
“He paid for the parts and we built it ourselves” Leonidas said.
Ruby spread her arms out across the hood in attempt to hug it., “You made this marvellous, dreamy masterpiece of a transport?”
“Indeed I have.” Leonidas said smirking with pride.
“Will you marry me?” Ruby blurted. She then realized what just came out of her mouth and she clapped both her hands over her mouth, her face red from embarrassment.
“Uh no thanks. You’re a bit too young for me” Leonidas said.
“Huh I thought she only went nuts around weapons, “ Francesca said.
“I love every kind of machinery that everyone has put their heart and soul into it” Ruby said trying her hardest to will herself into a giant hole in the ground.
“Yeah I also added some special modifications to it, I’ll show you some time” Leonidas said with a smile.
“All right, all right, the wedding will have to wait” Francesca said, ushering ruby into the car
“I had no intention of wedding her after a proposal like that, I am not so weak willed as you” Leonidas said.
“And what’s that supposed to mean Buster?!” Francesca growled.
“I mean that my will is not so weak that it would be easily manipulated by a virtual game and false combat.”
Francesca pointed his finger at his chest. “I’ll HAVE YOU KNOW THAT THE COMBAT SYSTEM IN-”
“Are we going to argue or are we going to follow Iskandar and Yang?” Blake interrupted.
“Right, everyone ready to pursue?” Ruby said
"Right" they all said.
"Shotgun" Francesca yelled
"Shotgun's lap" Naomi said.
"FUDGE" Francesca said, knowing she couldn't swear in front of Ruby
“You don’t have to change your words, I’m fifteen not twelve!” Ruby said.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After forty minutes of swerving, near misses and sharp turns and Iskandar holding on for dear life “So dinner first before we go dancing?” Yang said.
“Yeah that sounds good” Iskandar said still clinging onto her waist hair messed up from the wind.
“So how was your first motorcycle ride?” Yang said smiling.
“It was frightening at first, but after the four swerves it actually was pretty exciting,” Iskandar said chuckling. “May have to consider getting myself one of these” he added.
“So how do you feel about Mistralian food?” Yang said.
“That sounds heavenly I haven’t had it in years” Iskandar said.
“Really, well this will be a treat for you.” Yang said as the two walked into the restaurant, unknownst to them their teams were spying on them from an alley across the street
"Hey" Leonidas said.
"Yeah" replied Francesca.
"You ever wondered why we're here?" Leonidas asked.
"It's one of life's great mysteries, why are we here? are we a coincidence of some cosmic incident or are there gods with a plan for us and stuff I don't know but it keeps me up at night" Francesca said
Everyone stared at Francesca in amazement before Leonidas finally spoke "I mean why are we in this alley when we can spy on them from the cafe across the street."
"Oh right" Francesca said.
"What was that stuff about gods?" Leonidas asked.
"Nothing" Francesca said
"You want to talk about it?" Leonidas said
“Okay enough talking about philosophy later we here to see something juicy” Naomi said.
“Agreed” Ruby said as the group moved to the cafe.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iskandar and Yang sat in a booth near the window Iskandar ordered a chicken katsu for himself and Yang ordered a tori karaage don, they also ordered a crunchy roll, alaska roll, takoyaki, sweet chilli chicken karaage and vegetable tempura to share. Yang noticed people judgmentally staring at the two but she paid no mind to it, “Do you think we ordered too much” Yang said.
“Well I got a big appetite, or so my parents said” Iskandar said.
“What were they like?” Yang asked.
Iskandar took a breath. His parents were a sensitive subject, “Well my mom was kind and nurturing, my father wise and strong, but if someone was to harm me or my brother, they would be on the receiving end of their wrath,” Iskandar paused to collect himself.
“They seem nice” Yang said.
“The were, although they always made time to make sure we had fun, even when they would take shifts on huntsman missions” Iskandar said with a smile remembering his parents mannerisms with fondness.
“They were huntsmen?” Yang said.
“Yes, they actually made names for themselves, Phillip Drakon, the Black Flame King and Olympia Drakon the Desert Aurora” Iskandar said.
“Wait, I think I heard those nicknames, they were legendary Vacuo huntsmen that died in a massive grimm horde” Yang said. She then looked at Iskandar’s face and saw his grief “Oh god I’m sorry”
“It’s okay it happened long ago, I made peace with that, let’s eat, don’t let this talk ruin our dinner” Iskandar said.
“Sure that’s sounds lovely,” Yang said causing them both to smile.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“What are they saying?” Ruby said.
“I don’t know I can’t read lips,” Leonidas said.
“Huh seems like they are having a good time” Francesca said.
“Wait.... wait.... I can lip read ...........Yang is saying that she wants Izzy to take her on the table” Naomi said.
“I highly doubt that” Blake said reasonably sceptical.
“What does she mean by taking my sister on the table?” Ruby said.
“Uh, it’s how to say pack up the leftovers to go” Weiss lied.
They then saw Iskandar pay the bill and he and Yang exiting the restaurant “Guys they’re on the move” Francesca said.
“Right let's take this on the table and go” Ruby said.
Leonidas glared at Naomi “You will pay dearly for that” he said angrily. Naomi then started to sweat and chuckled nervously
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yang and Iskandar walked up to a nightclub named “The Club”, “Why are we in this shady neighbourhood” Iskandar asked.
“Well we’re here to dance, this is the best place I know, plus the owner owes me a drink” Yang said
“I heard that this place was owned by a crime boss” Iskandar said, remembering white fang reports
“Oh he’s not so tough.” Yang said as they walked ignoring the line of people, Yang scared the bouncer and the two entered.
The bouncer picked up his phone “Boss, The blonde girl is back” he said scared.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“They went into that club” Leonidas said.
“Well how are we going to get in?” Weiss said.
“I doubt any of us are over the legal limit” Blake mentioned.
“And look at Ruby, her innocent face would never pass as club material” Francesca said pinching Ruby’s rosy cheeks to illustrate a point.
“Hey, I can be club material!!” Ruby said. Everyone tried very very hard to ignore the meaning of that sentence out of context.
Naomi then saw a female wearing the same uniform as the male bouncer, shades and all, she then got a mischievous smirk on her face. “I have an idea, just wait for my signal and then run inside” Naomi said.
“Oh this should be good” Blake said sarcastically.
The group stayed in the line until they reached the front “ID please” the female bouncer said. But instead of presenting an ID Naomi wrapped her arms around the bouncer’s neck then pull her into a deep kiss.
“I think that’s the signal” Blake said. The group took advantage of the distraction and ran into the building
“Okay we’re in” Ruby said.
“I never thought that miscreant’s plan would work,” Weiss commented.
“Wait where’s Leonidas” Francesca said noticing he wasn’t with them she then looked outside and saw Leonidas frozen and blushing watching from Naomi’s makeout session “Oh for fuck’s sake” She sighed exasperatedly and grabbed the ninja by the collar and dragged him inside, Naomi finished the kiss and followed the others inside, leaving the bouncer still trying to process what happened.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iskandar and Yang made their way to the brightly glowing dance floor “So what am I supposed to do?” Iskandar said.
“You’re suppose to dance, watch me” Yang said “Hey DJ put on my jam” she ordered, the DJ flinched as he complies with Yang’s demand and puts on the song ‘I Burn’ as the song started Yang started to swing he hips getting into the groove. Iskandar watched her body and hair moved around the dance floor in a passionate expression of her body, Iskandar looked around saw that there was a large amount of space around him, probably because people were afraid of his size, Iskandar moved his arms in an awkward motion.
Yang giggled “Hey I never done this before” he said blushing
“Izzy, just let the music flow through you, let your instincts cut loose and have fun kinda like when you're fighting,” Yang explained.
“Hmm if that’s the case” Iskandar started moving his hips, his tail swinging in the movement.
“Yeah now you’re getting into it” Yang said pumping her fist into the air
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A dark haired, bearded man wearing a black vest and white shirt and red tie, was sweating a storm as he stared at the blonde haired girl “Oh gods no” Junior said in fear
“What is it old man?” his bar keeper said keeping his head hidden by a dark purple hoodie
“Boss, it’s that blonde haired chick. Not too long ago she came here looking for someone, she grabbed me by the balls without provocation, I co operated with her told her, I didn’t know who she was looking for. Long story short she didn’t like my answer and then decided to trash the place” Junior said, sweating out bullets.
“Hmmm.... So she’s the one who knocked out the twins, been wondering who did that” the bartender said.
“And she’s here with a huge dragon faunus, what the hell are we going to do” Junior panicked.
“That means nothing… if anything it works out well for us” the bartender said.
“What do you mean?” Junior said.
“Follow my lead,” the bartender said. “I’ll get in position” without another word, he exited through the backdoor of the bar.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iskandar was doing the pop and lock then decided to start breakdancing, he was upside down spinning around his tail flinging like a whip, he then did a ninja get up then finished with a back flip. The crowd around Iskandar cheered.
“Wow you’re a fast learner” Yang said smiling.
“Well I guess you’re a better teacher than you thought.” Iskandar said smiling.
“Awww thanks, I’m just going to the ladies room to wash up okay” Yang said.
“Okay, just don’t take too long I’m having too much fun dancing with you” Iskandar said.
Yang smiled as she walked around a corner to the restroom.
The bartender checked his security camera footage from the catwalks... no one else was in the ladies room. “Target is in the ladies’ restroom north end.... Go.” the bartender said.
“Right” Junior said as he and a couple of his goons followed her. Yang was washing her hands in the sink Junior and his goons were outside. He signalled as they entered the ladies room, Yang saw them in the mirror, she turned around and threw a punch which launched a goon to the wall, Junior used this opportunity to hit her with a taser and with his free hand grabbed a small palm sized speaker which emitted a small screech. It wasn’t loud yet... it hurt. Yang put her hands to her ears in order to block out the sound. Junior used this chance to charge at her back hit the mirror shattering it and knocking her unconsciousness. Back on the dance floor Iskandar’s ear twitched, he heard the mirror broke and the screech, he instinctively made a beeline to the bathroom.
“Hey guys Iskandar, just bolted to the bathroom” Francesca said.
“I don’t know why but I felt a weird frequency” Naomi said.
“Something is up, come on let’s get through that crowd and follow him” Ruby said.
He looked down the narrow hallway connecting to the bathrooms to see two goons carrying Yang “HEY” Iskandar said as he ran down the hall, scaring the goons as they picked up the pace. But as he was about two feet in front of them, someone jumped down from above getting in between him and Yang. Upon closer observation the stranger had purple hair and was wearing a bartender’s uniform, “Yinsen?” Iskandar said surprised.
Yinsen looked at him with a cold expression “Hello Iskandar”
“Great, with you here, We can take these chumps together!” Iskandar said.
“And why would I do that?”” Yinsen asked. Shocking Iskandar.
“Wait you’re not actually considering letting them go!?” Iskandar said.
“Yes. I am.” Yinsen turns his head to glare at the two men. The two ran ahead eager to get away from the two.
“Do you have any idea what they’re gonna do to her? WHY WOULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN?!” Iskandar asked.
”Consider this compensation... she wrecks this bar... we wreck her.” Yinsen said.
It was then Iskandar came to a horrifying realization. “You’re with them” Iskandar stated.... “How could you? Have you been blackmailed, are you in debt, You don’t have to-”
“I am in this club of my own free will, I assure you.”
“Why?” Iskandar growled. He didn’t know Yinsen very well but his team got along with CRST easy enough. Yinsen may have acted uninterested in them but he didn’t seem like a bad guy... he was nice enough to his team.
“I can get access to certain information normal hunters have to waste time looking for, especially about the Whit-,Iskandar grabbed Yinsen’s face and threw him into a wall landing on the dance floor, the act startled the patrons of the club and they all dashed to the exit. Save a certain group of hunters in training who witnessed the spectacle.
“Wait was that Yinsen?” Naomi said.
“What the hell” Francesca said.
“We have to help Yang and Iskandar” Ruby said.
“Wait Ruby we came here without weapons, we’re useless like this but we can help get these people out of there” Weiss said.
Ruby paused before nodding “ You’re right, besides we can come back inside afterwards.” Ruby said.
“Okay let’s move” Blake said as they ran to assist the patrons.
Iskandar burst through a wall into the alley, seeing two goons loading Yang into a van “let the girl go, NOW” Iskandar said lighting his hands on fire. The henchmen whimpered before opening the back and threw Yang, onto the ground and ran for their lives. Iskandar ran to Yang’s side, “Come on Yang, talk to me” Iskandar said desperately lightly tapping her face. Yang was unresponsive. Iskandar and checked her head finding a small bump. It didn’t look like a concussion but you could never tell. Yang began to moan and squirm starting to wake up. “Thank the gods” Iskandar said.
Yang began to open her eyes, she began to see Iskandar’s worried orange eyes “Izzy” Yang said.
“Yeah, you okay?” Iskandar asked.
“Yeah I’m fine” Yang said as she stood up “Ugh I will never live this down, damsel in distress is not my style,” Yang said.
“Don’t worry I won’t tell anyone, but for now we have a fight on our hands, Yinsen and his friends will be on us soon” Iskandar said.
“Wait, Yinsen from school? From Team CRST?” Yang said.
“Yeah, apparently he works here” Iskandar.
“How long was I out?” Yang asked.
“About few minutes” Iskandar said as a few goons came out of the hole in the club Iskandar made, “So you sure you can handle this? you were just unconscious!” Iskandar said.
“I am good” Yang said as she activated her ember celica. “You should pull out your weapon now”
“Girl, I am a weapon” Iskandar said as he ignited his fists as the two charged at the goons.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ruby and the others were outside helping the patrons of the bar got to safety “Okay I think that is all of them, now let’s go help Izzy and Yang” she said. As they we about to run back inside a window shattered and a goon flew out the window with the shoulder of his suit on fire and landed on the roof of a car.
“Uh Ruby, I think they got this” Francesca said.
“But they could going to be hurt” Ruby said.
“They are the toughest people in both our groups, I’m sure they can handle themselves, besides I’m sure if we helped them we’d just get in their way cause we’re unarmed” Blake said.
“Besides I’m pretty sure they would tear us apart once we tell them why we’re here in the first place.”” Naomi said.
“WHICH ONE OF YOU BASTARDS WANT FOURTH DEGREE BURNS?!?!??!” they heard Iskandar scream
“I actually agree with the blue haired deviant” Weiss said.
“As much as I respect sensei, I fear his wrath more,” Leonidas said as the group as they began to run to Leonidas’ car.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iskandar slammed his arm into a goon sending him flying, one tried to attack him from behind but Iskandar’s tail wrapped around the goon’s neck and with a flick of his tail threw the goon into another goon. He then jumped towards three more landing on his hands doing a spin to smack the goons with his feet and tail sending them flying to the floor. ‘Wow Yang was right dancing is like fighting’ Iskandar thought.
“Wow he’s good” Yang said as punched one goon. Another approached her intending harm but Yang countered with a hook. She then saw the DJ wearing a giant teddy bear head reach for his uzi so she pulled back her fist and threw another punch that fired a shot a blast at the DJ, the latter jumped from the stand out of fear before the DJ table exploded from the shot. “Oh yeah” she said triumphantly.
“We go shopping for a few hours and we come back to find the place is being trashed. Again” a girl with long black hair and green eyes about Yang and Iskandar’s age, she wore a white strapless dress bladed boots and a white feather scarf and white gloves.
“We never get a moment’s rest.” the girl’s twin but this girl had shorter red strapless dress a small black fur pelt on her shoulders and a feather in her hair, and high heel boots. Red and black claws were seen on the red clad twin’s arms.
“Melanie, Miltia wonderful timing, you two and Junior take out the big one.” Yinsen angrily said.
“Wait you want me to fight that fire breathing psycho!” Junior yelled in fear.
“Your choice Junior, the dragon faunus or today’s job market” Yinsen said.
Junior started to sweat “You heard the man girls, time for some payback” he said grabbing his rocket launcher as the three walked into the fray.
“Take a couple of these they’ll help” Yinsen said throwing them a couple of dark blue grenades.
Iskandar smelt the air and looked to find Yinsen, the twins and Junior approach him as the goons began to run away “You’re going to pay for this” Junior said.
“Yeah the thing about threats they actually have to be threatening, dipshit” Iskandar said.
“Oh yeah two on three” Yang said but then a pink crystal spear came flying at her, she saw it coming and dodged, she looked to see who threw the projectile, her gaze landed on Yinsen, “YOU!!, What are you doing with them?!?” Yang yelled.
“I don’t owe you any explanation regarding my circumstances. However, what you do owe us is 10,000 lien in damages and equipment along with several bruises and a crushed arm.” Yinsen said as he covered his arms in pink diamonds creating gauntlets which he then created into two shields with spikes on them. “And as Junior said, you WILL pay your debt.”” he said angrily.
“ I’ll have the tooth fairy pay the tab with your teeth” Yang said as she lunged towards him. She swung her fist at Yinsen the latter blocked with his shield, Yinsen then got his legs swept but when he landed he rolled away from Yang and then got up. Yang just sneered. Yinsen’s eyes narrowed focusing on his objective.
Meanwhile with Iskandar grabbed a hold of Junior’s bat while Melanie and Miltia tried to attack from behind but Iskandar extended his wings and smacked the twins with them before spinning hitting them each a sweep of his tail. The twins got back up and tried to take him with a series of slashes and kicks respectively, but Iskandar anticipated most of the attacks blocking and dodging them with ease. Miltia got one lucky scratch on his neck and Melanie was able to strike his shin. Iskandar then grabbed Miltia by the ankle with his tail and tripped her then followed with a uppercut sending her flying landing on her back. Melanie was about to deliver a kick to his kneecap but Iskandar jumped and hit the white dressed twin with a flying roundhouse kick. The two were in trouble, “Girls!!! Move!!” Junior said as he transformed his club into a missile launcher, the twins jumped out of the way giving Junior the opportunity to open fire the missiles flew towards Iskandar and collided with their target in a violent explosion. Junior put his launcher down sure of victory, but his victory was premature as Iskandar emerged from the flames unharmed.
“Well that didn’t work” Miltia said sarcastically Iskandar raised his hands and two streams of fire came out of them. The twins jumped out of the ways Junior barely dodged it but the back of his vest caught on fire, he panicked as he frantically took his flaming vest off and threw it away.
The three looked at Iskandar and trembled a bit, they looked at him like he was a monster, “Oh god this is how I die, by the hands of this terrifying dragon faunus,” Junior lamented. Melanie then saw the blue grenade on his belt and grabbed it “HEY” he said.
“It’s better than dying doing nothing” Melanie said throwing the grenade, Iskandar caught the blue grenade in his hand, the grenade opened up revealing a set of small speakers, Iskandar looked at in confusion until his ears got hit with a sonic blast loud Iskandar felt his eardrums burst.
“AAAAAAAAAAAAHH” Iskandar yelled dropping the grenade covering his ears in pain, dropping to one knee,
“Holy crap that actually worked” Junior said. “Now then” he said as he walked towards Iskandar and hitting him on the head with his club knowing he couldn’t fight back, Iskandar got up only to get knocked down by a kick to the solar plexus by Melanie’s boot, Miltia’s claw went for Iskandar’s face but Iskandar released a small burst of fire making them back off a bit. They all looked at Iskandar even though he was in pain and could barely fight back, he still had that defiant look on his face. Not that it mattered.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yang was punching through Yinsen’s shields, trying to break them to no avail. Yang was barely making a dent in either of them, she could hear a slight ringing but it didn’t cause her pain, she heard a roar she looked to see Iskandar in pain as Junior and the twins were smacking him around, Iskandar was in too much pain to completely fight back. Yang glanced at Iskandar, ‘Izzy, what is wrong with him, wait the noise it must be hurting him because of his faunus hearing’ Yang thought, she was then smacked by Yinsen’s shields, knocking her down to the floor “You will pay for trashing MY bar” Yinsen said. Yang looked back at Iskandar with worry but then saw the blue device on the floor and knew what she had to do. Yinsen was about to smash her with the shield but Yang pushed herself up dodging the attack and fired a long range blast Yinsen blocks but the force of the blast knocked the spikes off the shield. She then ran towards Yinsen,who put his guard up covering his body. Yang jumped onto the shields and used them as a stepping stone kicking him back while leaping into the air, firing a shotgun blast at the blue grenade, destroying it.
Junior was ready to strike Iskandar’s head but Iskandar grabbed the club. His horns started to glow as he started to stand up his face scowled in pure rage. He threw the bat with Junior still holding onto it at the twins knocking all three down to the floor taking them out of the fight. He then turned his attention to Yang and Yinsen.
Yinsen threw one of his shields at Yang. Yang fired several shots knocking it off course. The other shield was heading straight for her it’s edges were sharp as a blade. But before the shield could connect with Yang, a arm blocked the shield making a cut in the forearm, Yang looked to her left and saw Iskandar had blocked the attack.
Iskandar pulled the sharpened shield out of his arm and threw it to the side, “Ah damn it I just bought this jacket! Yinsen I will burn your ass off.” Iskandar raged.
Yinsen looked at him with a hard expression. “You shouldn’t have intervened.” with that statement he charged Yang crystallizing his hands into talons
Yang dodged a swipe and shot at Yinsen’s body the impact pushed him back but not much. Yang took a look at his body.. It was crystallized there too! YInsen charged again this time aiming a roundhouse kick to the leg which Yang limped from but she nailed another head shot. Yang tried to go for the jaw but yinsen pushed the fist just barely enough to have it miss his chin and lands a body shot of his own in response causing her to double over.
Iskandar moved to flank him and get his right while he was occupied by Yang. He moved to strike with his tail but Yinsen suddenly grabbed yang by the throat and used yang to shield him from the tail it would’ve pierced the back of her skull had he not stopped.
Taking advantage of his hesitation, Yinsen separated himself from his two adversaries with a crystal wall in front of him. He then kicked this wall into them sending them to the other side of the bar with a crash. “Had enough?” Yinsen asked.
Iskandar shook the dust off himself. “You do not know my limits Yinsen”
Yang clashed her fists together in anticipation. “ I get first crack.”
Yinsen glared into the faces of his....No... they were still allies. And they were friendly in the short time he knew them. But Yang Xiao Long had to pay for the suffering of his friends. He bent his knees ready to charge. But he stopped.
You are far... FAR too hasty.... You know the bar can not handle a battle between you three.
‘I can take it out... no .. that... that would endanger civilians.' Yinsen stopped and sat down at a barstool looking solemn.
There will be a time that you will take vengeance on her for hurting your friends. But now is not that time.
‘This issue will take longer to debate than usual... we must contemplate this.’ Yinsen closes his eyes and exhales then another wall formed in front of him. And another beneath him. Realizing his intentions Iskandar and Yang charged and tried to stop him attacking with fire and explosions. Two more walls formed beside him, one on each side. Another in the back... the top of the walls bent together sealing the top effectively sealing Yinsen inside.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yang furiously punched at the structure with the intent of shattering it to pieces, frustration seeping out with each punch showing no signs of damage. “Stinking coward boxed himself in!” Yang yelled. Iskandar tried his luck shooting the flames at his box careful not to ignite the alcohol behind him. When the flames cleared no damage was visible. He punched it. A Crack was visible. He punched it again.
“AUGH!!!” Iskandar recoiled his hand when spikes extended out of the wall and impaled his knuckles up to his wrists
Iskandar stopped and let his aura healed his minor lacerations. He looked at Yinsen. His eyes were closed and his mouth was slightly moving. Wherever his attention was, it wasn’t on them. Iskandar took this time to gather his thoughts. He barely cracked the crystal... but if he had a little more power..“Yang...I have an idea. What if we combined our auras and fire, we could be able to force just enough pressure to break the stuff”
Yang frowned. What do you mean by combine our fire?
“I use my aura to cover us in fire and we used our combined strength to bust his shield down” Iskandar said.
Yang hesitated for a minute, thinking of any other options. Iskandar grabs Yang by the shoulders and asks “Yang. This is the only thing that’s gonna work... Do you trust me?”
After a long silence she finally replied. “I trust you” she said. Iskandar enveloped both himself and Yang in flames.Yang expected a searing pain typical of flames. But instead it was a soothing warmth. Almost like a best friend. “Amazing” She couldn’t help but say.
“Okay here we go” Iskandar said pulling his fist back.
“Right” Yang clashed her fists together her hair started to glow and her eyes changed from Lilac to red, the flames around them turned gold.
Iskandar and Yang charged Yinsen’s defensive crystals shattered as they collided with the golden fireball, Iskandar and Yang rocketed towards Yinsen’s shield pulled back their fists and punched the front wall leaving a very visible crack.
“Just... A ... little... more...” Iskandar grunted as he and Yang continued to push.
“Fools” Yinsen grunted as a giant crystal pillar erupted from the ground in front of him knocking Iskandar and yang on opposite sides of the pillar as the golden fireball dissipated.
Yinsen walked towards Yang and approached Yang. Yang stood up and fired at yinsen. The blow barely fazed him as he continued to walk towards her an intense look in his eyes. Yang continued to fire with Yinsen moving through each blow as if it were a gentle summer breeze. Yang moved to punch his jaw. Yinsen simply grabbed her wrist and tore off the gauntlet on her hand. Yang moved to punch his head but Yinsen grabbed the forearm and crystallized her other arm, rendering it useless. Yang thought quickly and kneed his man parts.
“AAAAAAAAUGH” Yang screamed.
Yang flinched at the pain her knee was in from hitting Yinsen’s crystallized crotch. Yinsen released her wrist and grabbed her throat with both hands choking her.
“YINSEN” Iskandar yelled getting up groggily from all the damage he took, with eyes of rage and horns glowing red, “Let her go!!! I don’t care what she has done to your little operation, but you will let us go if you don’t want your club to be burnt to ashes” Iskandar said.
If Yinsen heard him he didn’t acknowledge it. He continued to strangle Yang with both hands, her face turning red.
Iskandar created two fireballs in his hands amplifying the temperature in the club “I’M GIVING YOU TO THE COUNT OF TEN TO LET HER GO, 1.... Yinsen continued to hold Yang’s throat in his hands
“2” Iskandar said angrily as the fireballs began to grow and become more wild Yinsen turned his head, seeing the determination in his eyes... and something else.
The early stages.
Indeed. Yinsen’s grip on yang’s throat loosened slightly as he contemplated Iskandar’s reaction.
“8” Iskandar said impatiently ready to unleash his attack the heat generated from the flame could be felt throughout the club.
Hmmm.... let’s see where this story takes him.
Oh you sentimental sap. A good love story always got you going.
“9!!!!” Iskandar yelled ready to throw his attack
Yinsen looked to Yang and spoke loud enough for Iskandar to hear “You’re lucky we just finished repairs”, he took his hands off Yang’s throat and pushed her to Iskandar. ‘And doubly lucky that he cares for her.’
Such passion. As expected for a first timer
Whatever he feels for her... it will be eternal.
“If this is another trick” Iskandar threatened the fireball glowing brighter than ever.
“No tricks Iskandar. Though your paranoia is understandable” Yinsen said he then looked to Yang as she got up “, I won’t charge you for the damages you made tonight, but stay out of my way” Yinsen said as he walked past Iskandar towards the exit “Leave now before I change my mind... Demonic Knight.” Yinsen said. Iskandar clenched his fist upon hearing his former title.
“I oughta turn this place into a crater.” Yang grumbled.
“Let’s go Yang, we’re done here” Iskandar said as he and Yang headed to the exit he then glanced at Yang ‘I can’t keep this up forever, and she will ask why Yinsen called me that... I should tell her now get this over with” His mind set, they exited the club
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Was that really necessary child?
He was going to dance around it forever ifI didn’t slip a hint... he can either let the subject fester and rot their relationship with secrecy... or he can come clean and play off the girl’s sympathy
You know... just because you’re doing it for other people.. It doesn’t make you any less of an asshole
Noted... I better get back soon so I don’t worry the team. His conversation finished he pistoned a pillar out of the ground launching him back to Beacon.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Well that was a thing” Yang said. Iskandar looked down “hey are you okay?” she asked.
“Well I know you trust me, but can I trust you with a secret” Iskandar said.
“Uh ....okay?” Yang said confused at the unexpectedness of it.
“Okay” Iskandar then picked up Yang bridal style and spread his wings and flew up with a yelp from Yang. In the air he looked around and saw a old abandoned building he decided to land on the roof
“So why did you take me on top of this old building?” Yang said.
“So no one can hear us, this is a really big bombshell I’m about to drop. I know this will change things between us, I just need to tell someone this, cause I know sooner or later I won’t be able to continue the farce. I lied to you about my past well at least part of it” Iskandar said.
“What do you mean? Does this have anything to do with that “Demonic Knight thing Yinsen called you?” Yang asked.
“Yes... You see, I never was part of a gang, when I was six me and Hephaestion lost our parents,our house was secluded for demolition by my parent’s enemies, but the defences that protected us against grimm broke. My parents told me to run and protect my little brother. My last sight of them was them being struck down by grimm” Iskandar paused for a moment.
“So... when do we get to the secret?” Yang asked..
“Right” Iskandar said. “We traversed the desert for a week until we got to Vacuo, there we found how cruel the world can be to faunus, Vacuo has more tolerant policies towards faunus but there are still individuals who see faunus as 'lesser beings'. We lived in the ghettos surviving on scraps of food, clothes, anything that was needed to live we only had pieces of it. The only job I could get was shining shoes for pedestrians. But one day I was walking back from my job to find my brother being assaulted by a businessman in the alley we called our home. He accused my brother of stealing from him. I got between them, but he pulled out a gun and he shot me.” Iskandar said lifting his shirt revealing the bullet hole scar on his abdomen near the kidney. “I fell to the ground, the pain was intense but as I looked up, I saw him point his gun at Hephaestion, I got angry I felt something burning inside me, I had to do something, I couldn’t let him kill my brother, so I, s-so I” Iskandar said choking on his words.
“It’s okay you don’t have to tell me that part.” Yang said concerned.
“That was when I unlocked my semblance and I used it to set a man on fire” Iskandar said sorrowfully.
“Hey he was going to hurt your brother it was self defence” Yang said trying to comfort him.
“I know. But still doesn’t excuse for what I did, anyway afterwards I passed out, when I came to I found out we were rescued by some members of the white fang who were having a rally nearby” Iskandar said.
“Wait.... THE WHITE FANG?!?!?!?!” Yang asked surprised.
“Yes, but it was a peaceful organization before leadership changed and it is now what you know today” Iskandar said. “Me and Heph actually formed a close bond with the previous leader, Ghira.” Iskandar was careful not to reveal Blake’s secret to her teammate for it was not his secret to share. “Before he stepped down, I knew something was wrong. The White Fang became more militaristic, but we still stayed to complete our training. However our skills would be used for things that the White Fang would never do. When I turned 15 I was placed in a black ops unit, ‘The Predators’ and at 16 became leader of said group specialised in dust acquisition, destruction of businesses that use faunus slave labour, and my least favourite part of the job .....” Iskandar gulped. “Assassination” Iskandar said.
“Wait, you were an assassin?... You killed people?” Yang said in a voice of disbelief.
“Yes, although it was not a path I wanted to go down, there was no honour killing unarmed businessmen, during my years in the White Fang I saw my brother change, he became more vicious, we argued more and he was been reacting more hostile towards humans. Mainly the ones who were more prejudiced than others, but some days he took his anger out on any human unlucky enough to be in his way.” Iskandar said.
“...It must be hard being a Faunus” Yang said sadly.
“It is challenging, to be honest that stuff doesn’t bother me anymore, because I already know what I am” Iskandar said. “A monster” he continued.
“Izzy you aren’t a-” Yang said
“But I am! I was assigned to kill those people, they were corporate scumbags who abused and mistreated faunus, but I mainly killed so Hephaestion wouldn’t have to. If I didn’t do it our boss Adam would have ordered Hephaestion to do it. I didn’t know how to deal with the guilt of allowing him to be murderer. So I’ve taken lives so he didn’t have to. Lives of people who probably had families waiting for them. I felt my parents would have been ashamed of me, ‘cause all I wanted was to be heroes like them. I started to wonder who I was and what I was fighting for. I tried hunting down people who deserved it, murderers, drug dealers, rapists, they all faced justice, but as much as I tried to do the right thing, all I felt a hole in my soul which grew with each soul I’ve taken” Iskandar said as a tear feel down his cheek.
“What about your brother. Did you succeed in not making him a murder?” Yang asked.
“I didn’t want my brother to know the burden of taking a life, even though sometimes I was too late, I knew I had to get him out of there. Hephaestion on the other hand thought I was being selfish, being ungrateful to the people who took us in, given us a home and taught us how to fight back. It was a hot topic between us.” Iskandar said then took a breath “Our last mission was to intercept a Schnee Dust Company shipment, but it was a trap. The package exploded, and all of my teammates, died. Some were lucky and the explosion killed them. Others.... I tried to save them... but... but they lost too much blood.” Iskandar choked slightly as he remembered the helplessness of not being able to save a single one of his comrades especially the one he cared most. Yang put a hand on his shoulder to bring him back to Remnant. Iskandar continued his story
“I found my brother badly injured under a pile of rubble, I got him out of there but before I could get him some help he died in my arms there, I looked up to see my boss.. Adam Taurus, Roman Torchwick and some mystery woman. I KNEW Adam betrayed me and my comrades, I tried to take them down but they shot me down into the river, then Ozpin found me, and the rest you know” Iskandar said sorrowfully.
Iskandar looked at Yang to see her covering her mouth in shock “I know my crimes are irredeemable, and if you decide to turn me in I’ll understand. But know that however short my time at Beacon was, they were the best I’ve had in years. There I actually thought I could have a normal life and actually do something good for once. But ... But my past is still there and it will always be my sin” Iskandar said. Before he could say anything else he saw Yang run up to him, he expected her to punch him, however what he received was a heartfelt hug from Yang.
“Don’t beat yourself up, I know what you did was awful but you didn’t want that life, you were just trying to be a good big brother and keep an eye on Hephaestion to see if he stayed on the right path, besides you are the leader of team DMON those guys would be lost without you, besides Ruby would miss you too much, she calls you ‘the big brother she never had’ and honestly you saved my life. If a White Fang assass- Former assassin, was willing to risk his life to save a human, I honestly think he wouldn’t be such a bad guy would he, besides Ozpin trusts you so I trust you” Yang said.
Iskandar was flabbergasted he wiped away his tears and looked the blonde brawler in the eye “Thank you Yang, that means a lot, I promise to you I left that life behind I am dedicated to becoming a hunter, a honour bound hero my family can be proud of” Iskandar said with a sincere smile
“I’ll make sure of that, anyway let’s head back. Our teams are probably worrying about us” Yang said.
“Agreed, hold on” Iskandar said as he wrapped his arms around Yang’s waist as she wrapped her arms around his neck as he spread his wings and flew off to find Yang’s motorcycle.

Iskandar and Yang roamed the halls of the dorms until they got to Yang’s room. “Tonight was great, I’ll be honest that fight in the club was the most fun I’ve had in years” Iskandar said.
“Yeah same here, I mean besides learning about one of our classmates being a part of a criminal syndicate and him assisting in my kidnaping, it’s been a fun night” Yang said with a smile.
“But next time, please don’t pick a fight with gangsters until you have proof they are doing something illegal, or when you are just getting information, if they attack first then you can go nuts, if I may be so bold, what information did you want from Yinsen’s club anyway?” Iskandar asked.
“I’ll tell you some other time. It’s getting late, and thanks I’ll keep that lesson in mind” Yang said
“Well thanks for having my back, I would have been in some serious trouble with that sonic grenade thing” Iskandar said.
Yang had a smirk on her face as she grabbed his collar and pulled him down till his head was closer to hers she then kissed his cheek. Iskandar’s face turns red from the action.
“Goodnight” Yang said before entering her room, Iskandar just stood there paralysed in shock.
“She kissed me.” he mumbled.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iskandar entered his room touching the cheek Yang kissed still comprehending Yang’s actions.
Leonidas, Francesca and Naomi were playing a videogame and turned their heads to him when they heard him enter. "Hey how did your date go casanova" Francesca asked even though she knew half of the date.
"Oh it was very exciting, how about you guys" Iskandar said
“We just played Francesca’s video games all night, It’s no combat arena, but it’s certainly better than nothing” Leonidas said.
“Why thank you Leo” Francesca said.
"Did you get some action?" Naomi said teasingly
"That’s none of your business, but she did kiss my cheek" Iskandar.
"Awww that’s sweet maybe next time she’ll ride you like her motorcycle and pull off some sweet moves like you did on the dance floor" Naomi said, causing her teammates to look at her in horror. Leonidas and Francesca quickly covered her mouth with their hands and Naomi widening her eyes to what she just said.
"How would you know about her motorcycle OR my dance moves tonight?" Iskandar asked in an angry tone the temperature in the air began to rise.
"Uh funny story" Leonidas said nervously.

Yinsen walked to the entrance of his dorm room and opened it. HIs teammates were sleeping, he heard Silva yawn as she opened her eyes “Yinsen?…..what were you doing out this late?”
“I was getting some training in, and enjoying Vale’s nightlife.” Yinsen stated smoothly. “I’m sorry to have woken you up.”
“Why do you smell like Iskandar and Yang, I thought they had a date tonight?” Silva asked.
“They happened to be at the same club I was” Yinsen stated. “We enjoyed ourselves though i left so not to become a third wheel.”
“Why do you smell like his flames then, did you two fight in the club?” Silva asked.
“Yeah a fight broke out. I tried managing the chaos best I could.” Yinsen stated.
Silva then pouted angrily at him “You shouldn’t put yourself in the middle of that” Silva said.
“I had to” Yinsen stated. Silva stared into his eyes seeing determination
Then Silva took notice of his clothes “Why are there scorch marks on your clothes I doubt Iskandar is reckless enough for friendly fire.” Silva said.
Yinsen nodded. “True. But these were not caused by Iskandar, Yang hurt me through stray shots.” It wasn’t entirely a lie.
“Alright so that explains it, just be careful around those two, I’m glad you’re okay and had fun, anyway we should get some sleep” Silva said.
Yinsen nodded. “Yes, of course” he stripped himself of his jacket and his pants.
Silva’s face went completely red “DON’T STRIP IN FRONT OF ME” she yelled. Silver groaned in his sleep
Yinsen blushed as well realizing his folly. He hastily pulled up his pants but fell on his butt in panic. “Sorry.... I‘m... I’m used to living alone.”
“I-It’s okay you just s-startled me is all” Silva stuttered.
Yinsen walked to his bed and constructed a wall that acted as a changing curtain. Changing into comfortable pants and no shirt. He put himself under the covers trying to forget the incident that occurred. But his humiliation was not over yet
Wow.... just... wow.
Shut. UP.
I honestly, TRULY did not think you would fall for that trope.
'SHUT. UP! LET ME REST!!!'
The familiar voice in his head allowed him his rest chuckling into silence.
“Good night” Silva said. Yinsen turned around to see Silva’s smiling face as she drifted off to sleep.
Yinsen stared into the face of innocence. It was so... sweet and caring.
Careful boy.... The signs are starting to show.... Either that or you’re just being creepy.
Yinsen blushed harder and covered his face under the sheets willing himself to go to sleep.
