"I'm going to fucking kill them!" Yang screamed.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfGrd2QMKS 維尼
Blake took another sniff of the coffee. It wasn't what she smelled, it's what she didn't. The coffee didn't smell as strong as it should have. Most espionage drugs were odorless, colorless, and tasteless. That made it about the same as water, and this coffee was definitely watered down. "Drugged," Blake said simply.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYMeg6kwRN 維尼
"Of course I was fucking drugged!" Yang screamed again along with an excessive, and creative, use of swear words.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAErJaZcR4 維尼
Blake waited it out. After about five minutes Blake felt safe to speak again as Yang's eyes returned to their natural color. "You knew it was going to happen eventually. At least she brought Weiss. She isn't alone."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKBEIdskg5 維尼
Still breathing hard from all the yelling, Yang nodded. "Not sure who I should kill first: Ruby for leaving, or Weiss for going along with it." It was said calmly, or at least calmer than before.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EqDWEQISY 維尼
"Weiss probably didn't have a choice in the matter. I was gone looking for more cells, and you were unconscious. She couldn't exactly yell for help."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqwaMl2rzQ 維尼
"Yeah, I suppose. Guess I'll merely skin her." There was humor in that one. Not a lot, but enough.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8GMsWmIAm 維尼
She waited a bit more before approaching Yang. It wasn't that she was insensitive to the fact Ruby had run away. It was that there was nothing that they could do. Yang was the one she could help. A distraction was needed for the day or she was going to do damage to something. First to set her idea up. "Any chance of finding her?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpb189NHe8 維尼
"No. Nothing in either of these notes give a clue where she's going. No way of tracking her either. It's useless." She threw the papers away from her in annoyance.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O909OMcTi 維尼
Of course she already knew that. It was a good thing Yang was still frustrated or she'd know she was being steered. "So we wait?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5l8GuyZZz 維尼
With resignation Yang said "we wait."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvhagAIeaP 維尼
Well, now to direct the conversation to something constructive. "I could use your help then while we wait."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6F3dOFD33A 維尼
Yang's eyes looked at her with a hint of anger, and then deflated. "Sure, why not. Whatcha need?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5F6GIf3WZ 維尼
A slight smile crossed Blake's face. Seeing her friend in all of her phases in the span fifteen minutes was amusing. "Do you still have contacts on the bad side of town?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfA7RGvTxn 維尼
"Junior's still scared shitless of me," she grinned "if that's what you mean. Why, what do you need?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnToUiNkJd 維尼
"Information, and he might have it," Blake stated. "I'm running out of places to find pieces of White Fang." That wasn't entirely true. Now that Thompson and Simon were on board they were giving her leads to other groups. The pieces of White Fang may not like each other, but that only gave them more incentive to keep tabs on each other. Junior might have information on groups that had hidden from everyone, even other cells, so this wasn't a complete waste of Yang's time.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSy0fek3bW 維尼
Yang nodded. "He might have something." A bright smile hit her face. "It will be fun to see the club again. It's been a few months. I'm sure he has some new goons who haven't learned to leave me alone, and I got some stress to get out of my system."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2ZetOlcPT 維尼
That was the Yang she wanted. She wasn't nearly as bloodthirsty as Nora. NO ONE was as blood thirsty as Nora, but the blonde brawler none the less took just as much pleasure in fighting. This could go well. Blake hoped so at least. At the very least her friend would destroy something outside of their room, and outside of Beacon for that matter.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wFNlIrGSd 維尼
Yang weaved through traffic at a near breakneck speed that bordered on the insane on a normal day. The neck was well beyond broken on her ride that day. She had a lot of steam to blow off, and an adrenaline filled joyride seemed like a good start before the main event at Junior's.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyiuH4ANT8 維尼
When the siren sounded behind her she chuckled and accelerated. She purposely made sure not to lose them, which she could have done at several points. They must be new, she thought. Most of the force knew her bike on sight. I might as well break them in then. The com in her helmet chirped to life after a couple minutes. "Answer," she said.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2z3A0XPM8 維尼
"Miss Long, I just got a report that a couple of my cruisers are chasing a yellow motorcycle. You wouldn't have any idea who that might be, would you?" a familiar voice asked.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlWLIL7DdZ 維尼
"Captain, I'm sure I have no idea!" she laughed, zinging around a corner, her knee less than an inch from the ground. This area was close to Junior's, which was fortunate. It meant there was little traffic, and even fewer pedestrians in this rough area of town. She could really let loose, to her pursuers dismay. "And It's Yang. I'm old enough to drink, not old enough to be called 'miss.'"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN2GmtPWX3 維尼
Captain Jake Tapper was obviously enjoying this. His voice was almost laughing as much as Yang's. "Good to know. I think I can delay backup then and see how well they handle this."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQFwl72in5 維尼
Cracking a smile, she asked "rookies?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkb0ySPQ1W 維尼
"Just out of the academy last week," Jake said with amusement. "They still think they have been properly prepared for what's out there."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxNixgFVFk 維尼
She'd made three turns in rapid succession, managing at one point to end up behind them, and then passing them. "Hmmm, well maybe this little chase will be a good learning experience. Shame it's not me of course."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0VpIoz3zE 維尼
"Of course," he said with obvious irony. "I won't interrupt your time any more. Have a safe drive."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6242uQ67AA 維尼
"You know me better than that Jake."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaeCO03oc9 維尼
"Yeah, I do."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVdlrmZJMx 維尼
She led them around the area for another twenty minutes. Her final act was letting them catch up to her. She reached out to place a hand on the front fender of the left car and weaved with it in perfect sync. Then she separated a couple of feet before hitting her breaks without warning. With a wide grin under the visor of her helmet she put her hands up and waited for them to come back to her. Their guns were out, and their hands were shaking from a combination of adrenaline and nerves.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdJTqMe6AE 維尼
It was time for the big reveal. Yang reached for her helmet, slowly to avoid itchy trigger fingers, and pulled it off. With one shake of her head her hair fell loose, and she smiled at the two police officers as if she was having the time of her life. This didn't come close to qualifying, but it had been fun. "Hello boys," she said cheerfully. They may not recognize the bike, but they had to recognize her. Everyone recognized her.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UGbsMfn3w 維尼
Her team was heralded as "The best team in a generation," at Beacon, but for the rest of the known world they were the best team ever known. It helps that most people have short memories of course. She knew her history, and she knew what they had done to warrant that belief was nothing by comparison.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ6v10Y16V 維尼
Ruby wasn't recognized much; her cloak was. Weiss was easily picked out but was better known for her connection with the SDC. Blake, of course, actively avoided the attention. That left Yang, and she basked in the spotlight. She pulled the attention off the rest of the team who preferred to be left in anonymity.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB8Y0EeTeq 維尼
The fame was unavoidable after curbing the worse grimm incursion in known history. Well, that's what they said anyways. There was a lot more to it, and most of it was Jaune's excellent attack strategies and six other teams. RWBY was the best at adapting to changes on the battle field though. So they were put to spearhead the operation, making them the ones who were seen by the cameras. That's all the newsies needed. Instant stardom followed. The fact that of the four her fighting style was, quite literally, the flashiest with her flaming attacks only helped her capture the attention.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIJJXtD84F 維尼
"Yang Xaio Long!" one yelled, dropping his gun in shock.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDLgp2Ju4y 維尼
The other was a bit more composed. He holstered his weapon before squeaking like a schoolgirl with excitement.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dbuHSPFyk 維尼
Fame had its advantages. "Want an autograph boys?" she said with a wink and a winning smile. She led them around by the nose after that. At seventeen she had been hot. At twenty-one she was a rocket powered bombshell.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLC35xCUz7 維尼
She gave each one a kiss on the cheek before she left. She wondered how long it would be before they realized they were supposed to arrest her. Not that it would stick. Captain Tapper was a long time friend. Well, long time necessity when it came to dealing with gangs large enough to give the cops issues. Jobs she did for free in exchange for a few liberal interpretations of the law when it came to her.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e9TugGyoo 維尼
"They're more of a guideline," she'd told him.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoIM3DjCKB 維尼
The main event came into sight. Her mood was already improved from this morning. Getting information from Junior was just the whip cream on top of a delicious milkshake, complete with extra cherries.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlXrTMfIa4 維尼
Pulling up front she looked at the door. She recognized the two bouncers. Getting off her bike she made sure to give them the best possible views before approaching them with an extra sway to her hips. She smiled at them and enjoyed their reactions. They weren't sure if they should be turned on or scared to death. They settled for both.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4aEKRGgYh 維尼
You know, in the right type of club that reaction is normal, even desired, she thought to herself. But I don't think I could ever see myself swinging around a whip. Her musings made her chuckle and both goons flinched. Well, her laughter was usually followed by an ass kicking in their experience. In this area of town fear and respect were one and the same, and she was the alpha dog here.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡlig965p0fh 維尼
"Relax guys. I'm here to see Junior," she said easily.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjm4VxIVhM 維尼
They did not relax. "Um, does he know you're coming?" the one on the left asked. He was supposed to stop anyone he thought was dangerous from getting in. He knew she was dangerous if she wanted to be. The self preservation gene was kicking in though which made him want to run. This was too much fun!8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPfrMeeqLs 維尼
"Does he ever?" she smirked. The other bouncer's hand was inching towards his sword. He either didn't think she would notice, or hadn't realized he was even doing it. "I wouldn't." The hand quickly dropped as sweat instantly formed on his forehead. "Now there's a good boy." She gave him the best come-hither smile, and kissed him on the cheek. She gave him a pat on the ass as she walked past both. They didn't try to stop her, breathing a sigh as the tension left their bodies.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjELHo7GqW 維尼
The double doors into the club proper opened up automatically on her approach. Hmmm, more security than normal, she noted. A couple of the bouncers quickly made their way to Junior as soon as they saw her, pointing in her direction as she approached. Junior didn't turn around though. He ordered a shot of something from the bar and downed it, then had a second before she reached him. His personal bodyguards, the somewhat attractive Melanie and Miltia, eyed her. They were probably itchy for a rematch, but having had their buts whooped every single time in the past, to the destruction of the club, they smarty gave her plenty of room to get to their boss.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYEm0Znh53 維尼
"Don't drink too much of that stuff," she said helpfully, "it'll make you do stupid things."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm0QXISfiP 維尼
Junior shook his head. "I'm starting to think staying at the club at all is a stupid thing." He paused for a second, then with what could almost be called a sulk, "Sir."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6L1UTBMx3 維尼
It was good to have them trained early. "But if you did that who would I have to talk too?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy8zKFnta9 維尼
He chuckled nervously. "Exactly my point."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡggiX69RVFQ 維尼
"Oh, my feelings are hurt!"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡncnmAo5g7y 維尼
"I doubt that," there was almost a growl in there, but he didn't let it out enough for her to call him on it. "What information are you here to squeeze out of me today?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcWj2zVYXw 維尼
"Straight to the point. Why Junior are you trying to get rid of me?" She was purposely needling him and hoping he'd bite.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCrcdVnUjG 維尼
He almost did. "Stop toying with me already and spill it," he said with heat. Realizing that anger had slipped the "Sir" couldn't fly out of his mouth fast enough.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡruuV5bYNzu 維尼
She cracked a smile that was filled with joy and menace. "Careful. I'll play it your way though. The White Fang. I know there are still parts of it out there. You wouldn't happen to have any idea where we could find some of them?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DqbQ50n8D 維尼
"Do I look like I keep track of animals?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPoo1Byz3R 維尼
That was a dangerous thing to say, and she didn't think Junior even realized it. "No, but I think you keep track of anything that could affect your little slice of the kingdom."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLUpSlJqJ1 維尼
He nodded to the bartender who got him another shot. "Maybe. What's it to you anyways?" he asked, downing that shot right after.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6PnYDyhtw 維尼
"I'm asking, that's enough isn't it?" she stated coyly. "Just between friends, of course."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡumTcS6IxLg 維尼
He was a beaten man and she hadn't raised a finger. It was almost disappointing. Maybe it was time to work over a new club. "I'll send all the information to your scroll that I got. There's maybe ten that I know of, but I haven't counted. No point, they're all dying out. In a year there will be nothing left."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡemzhYeRFf4 維尼
She turned and started to walk away. "Thanks." She paused as if thinking. "Oh, and I wouldn't count them out just yet." Let him simmer on that. They could become a threat, or she could be messing with him. He won't know for sure so he'll look deeper, and if he looked deeper that would just be more information for her. She wouldn't even have to come down here to get it. Now that he knew she was looking for it he'd send it to her just to avoid her being in his club. It was a win-win because she really did just like messing with him.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡti1foPu90K 維尼
Passing the twins, she gave them a wink and a smile just to torque them as well. They were fun to mess with too. It was a shame she couldn't provoke them anymore to attack her. They were good enough to give her a small workout.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡflHD5Q1bQF 維尼
Getting home, Blake met her at the door. "I have news, but I wanted to tell you in person."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtcFoRncNA 維尼
News could mean only one thing. "Ruby?"8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9SKmjUILi 維尼
"Yes," Blake nodded. "I spoke to Headmaster Ozpin to tell him that Ruby and Weiss had disappeared."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuCXFwc2ZE 維尼
"And?" she asked impatiently.8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡExE5i1FCM4 維尼
"He already knew. He told me not to worry, they would be back by Monday. That Ruby had gone to take care of some 'family business,' as he put it." She paused, obviously nervous that Yang was going to lose it again. "I thought you would want to know."8964 copyright protection475ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJKZNlkCb6 維尼
She did feel the need to lose her temper again, but she throttled it. At least she's safe. The headmaster wouldn't let her leave without having a way to track her should she need help. It was more than she had this morning. Her confidence in Ozpin was such that she didn't give it a second thought that Ruby and Weiss could be in any kind of danger.479Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmciZZ2qu8W
