It was a bit suffocating . I felt that bad news were coming . But literally a mont ago , when my father delivered my food he seed to be talking to normally . Nothing seed to foreshadow this . So whatever happened , happened just now .
' The question, however is . What is going on ? Did sothing happen ? ..... Did I do sothing ? '
I thought concerned seeing their seriousness and feeling their gaze on . Feeling the suffocating atmosphere , uncertainty and slight uneasiness , I sat down on the bed and began to look through my mories for sothing they don't know about and would be angry about if they found out .
' In addition to what I've already been grounded for , is there anything else serious ? Is this about driving too fast ...... I don't think I got any fine ? Still , even if it was about the fine , uncle would not look like this . The fact that Uncle Qrow is so serious is disturbing . '
I thought to myself without taking my eyes off my father and uncle . And while I was thinking like this , I watched my father look at Uncle Qrow who was standing in the doorway and with his hands folded over his chest he was leaning with his back against the doorfra . Despite my father's gaze my uncle did not move , instead he looked back at my father .
I could not say with certainty what they were saying to each other by that look . However, I was sure that my father told my uncle to do sothing that he didn't quite want to do . It seed that uncle hesitated after they had already agreed on sothing . In the end , however , uncle Qrow just sighed and started walking toward the bed .
However, it was my father who was the first to sit on the chair at Ruby's desk and Uncle Qrow ca over and sat next to on the bed . I unconsciously moved away from him , making him so space .
Uncle Qrow : " Yang , first I want you to know that you have done nothing wrong , at least for now . So relax . "
Said Uncle Qrow , and his words on the one hand cald my anxiety , however , they did not ease the tense mood .
So I didn't do anything wrong ? Then sothing has happened ? '
I thought, being more and more anxious . Father and uncle were serious but not sad . So it was a serious conversation rather than sad news . However, what the conversation was about I had no idea . And this combined with the seriousness of my father and uncle made feel nervous .
' Is it about Ruby ? About school ? '
I thought looking at my father , who apparently seeing my face decided to speak up .
Father : " Qrow , get to the point . "
Said my father looking at my uncle . Uncle Qrow looked at father then looked at .
Uncle Qrow : " Sorry , I just didn't know how to start ....... Listen to Ynag .There is sothing you need to know about your new friend Lappland ....... "
Uncle Qrow said and I imdiately looked at my father . I had a feeling where this was going . All the tension imdiately disappeared when I understood this .
' So here we go again. '
I thought, already regretting that I told my father about Lappland. My father seed to imdiately understand the aning of my gaze, but before he could interrupt , my uncle's hand fell on my shoulder.
Uncle Qrow : " I know this face of your's Yang . So before you say sothing let finish . As for what you think about it , I leave that to you . But now know ,that this is not your father's typical talk about dating. Now the issue is different . "
Said Uncle Qrow , his seriousness silenced and shook my heart . That look , I have seen it before . I fell silent . Who exactly is Lappland that my uncle has to be so serious when he talks about her with ?
Uncle Qrow : " You see, thanks to your description and so new news spreading around town, I was able to piece together the identity of Lappy ........ "
Started Uncle Qrow , and I had no idea at the ti what wild ride was coming to crash into my world .
Pov 3 person
In front of a barely lit workbench on which lay a newly restored , chashift red scythe , stood quietly little Ruby , humming in an unhurried tone a song , which was also possible to hear through her red earphones .
Despite the loud music , which when listened to in this way certainly damaged hearing , Ruby did not look the least bit uncomfortable . She was fully focused and thorough when she put away the tools in their proper place . She didn't even have to look at what she was doing , which only showed how many tis she had done it and how much skill she had in it .
Putting down the last tool in its place , thus completing the cleanup of the workstation , Ruby stretched . And in the process of stretching , Ruby could not hold back the yawn that escaped unconsciously from her mouth . Tired and jet still humming , Ruby looked at the ti shown on the clock hanging above the door of the shed . Then looking out the window in front of her , Ruby saw her father's car standing in the distance .
Feeling tired and seeing that the father is already at ho, Ruby did not think much and just prepared to leave . Wiping the sweat from her forehead and fixing her fringe in the sa motion first . Ruby then ,with superhuman ease grabbed the scythe, which was taller and look heavier than she was, and with a single skilled movent she made the scythe, with a clean and chanical sound, fold up to the size of a small briefcase, which Ruby then attached to a strap on her tailbone protected by a red cape.
Leaving the shed , Ruby locked the door behind her , after which she walked toward the house . Turning off the music and pulling down her headphones , Ruby walked through the door and imdiately noticed two bowls and cans , lying on the table in front of the couch . This was unusual , generally everyone in the house always had to put their dishes in the sink after finishing a al . This was their father's rule . And now apparently the father and uncle themselves have broken it .
However, she did not think too much about it , she found it strange at best . She also had no intention of pointing it out to them , she was not stupid or petty . Probably her father and uncle had to do sothing quickly .
Ruby : " I'm ho ! "
Announced Ruby , without seeing anyone around , then she headed to her and Yang's room . And the closer Ruby was to the room , the more clear the conversation happening inside beca .
Qrow : " That's all I have to say . I have no reason to deceive you . I have no reason to lie . I'm only telling you this so that you know what you're getting into and so that you don't feel cheated later . Think about it . As for your decision ....... It's your heart and your feelings . I won't interfere as long as there is no threat of harm for you . "
Said Qrow , getting up . After which he looked at Tai , who sat silently listening to the conversation and watching his daughter's reaction the whole ti .
Feeling Qrow's gaze, Tai only nodded . Qrow's task was completed, now it's his turn to deal with the consequences . Qrow , relayed Yang what he knew about Lappland , leaving out of the conversation everything related to Ozpin and their investigation . "
With nothing more to say , Qrow left the room where he nearly ran into Ruby , whose stealthy attitude already showed that she was about to eavesdrop a little . However, Qrow said nothing to this , instead he imdiately seized her awey from the doorway and led her away from the room giving Tai and Yang ti .
Qrow : " Co eat dinner , your father and sister need to talk . But first you need to wash your hands and face . You are all covered in gun oil . "
Said Qrow grabbing Ruby by the shoulder .
Ruby : " Is sis in trouble again ? "
Asked Ruby looking back towards the room her uncle was dragging her away from .
Qrow : " Not really . She simply needs to talk to your father . "
Said Qrow , avoiding the subject . This , of course , only aroused the curiosity of Ruby , who noticed it . However, for now she was too tired and hungry to ask questions .
anwhile , " enlightened " by her new knowledge Yang sat silently staring out the window . Her gaze was contradictory and full of confusion . To say that she was shocked is an understatent . All her joy and normal energy was gone .
Yang knew that she was not familiar with Lappland. Apart from those few hours of getting to know each other and having fun , they were strangers to each other . Yang however , trusted the ti they spent together , Yang trusted her gut feeling about people . However, she never thought that she would be so wrong .
Lappland is a terrorist ? A psychopathic killer ? She didn't believe it , nor did she call it a lie . Because if such allegations were lies they would be overkill . Not to ntion that it was her uncle who told her about it . He gave a lot of details . Not about everything , he left the matter for Yang to investigate on her own .
However, there was no need to do so , because Yang heard about it herself . She had heard about the white wolf like most people with a Scroll or TV. Of course her uncle warned her that many things are unconfird and others are lies . Nevertheless there was a lot of it .
Tai : " I didn't want you to feel cheated or disappointed . In particular I didn't want you to be in danger that's why we told you . "
Said Tai seeing the silence of his daughter . Yang herself looking out the window did not show her father her facial expression .
Yang : " If everything uncle Qrow's said is true ..... Then I understand . "
Said Yang , after which she looked at father . She was not resigned , but not happy either . Yang was rather thoughtful . However, her violet eyes showed that her heart was really sore .
Yang : " Yes , Lappland is not the healthiest in mind . It's hard not to catch that after talking to or watching her . In the sa way it's hard not to notice how brutal she is in a fight . And although so far she has not done so in my presence , I have already guessed that Lappland is not a person who avoids killing . "
Yang : " I will not comnt on the morality of killing . Even though I myself so far always fight to the knockdown , I never promised myself nor to anyone that I would never never kill . Even you dad ..... You taught us this yourself . Soday will co the day , when we will have to kill . Isn't that why you taught and Ruby how to kill and gut fish ? "
Said Yang clenching her fist and lowering her head to look at her . The golden hair of her bangs , obscured her face , so Tai sitting still could only remain silent looking at his daughter and not knowing what exactly she was thinking .
Yang : " Of course, this has nothing to do with what Lappland did. Leaving aside the people taking away the freedom of faunus , leaving aside the racists I will not cry for ....... That said , these innocent people and those who left the white fang for a normal life . I don't know what to think . On the one hand I want to think about how Lappland is not sane in mind and how young she was at that ti . Ruby's age ? A year older ? Those are good excuses right ? ......
Said Yang , finally looking at her father . Yang Really was lost , she did not know what to think , looking to her father for answers ....
Tai : " I don't know . I don't know her or her situation. I have an opinion , sa as your uncle . She was young , might not have known better . She might not have received proper help ..... It's hard to say . "
Said Tai , without being sure himself . This was a conversation about morality . And you can't look at morlanity as sothing black and white . It all depends on perspective . But without hearing and understanding the other side you can't see their perspective . Yang understood that .
Likewise, Tai knew that these words reflected only a small part of his daughter's thoughts . Yang certainly has not yet assimilated all the information and she certainly has not put it all together in her head . Such information needs a good night's sleep to settle . So it's hard to say what Yang was thinking
Nevertheless, Tai was sure that Yang would not have given up on Lappland in any case . This was not Yang's style . Especially when Qrow expressed his speculation . Therefore, Tai simply asked .
Tai : " Do you already know what you want to do next ? "
Asked Tai , looking at his daughter .
Yang : " I need to talk to her . Understand her to make a verdict . If uncle is right and Lappland just want to start all over again . Escape the past by becoming a hunter . Then I have no right to take that away from her . "
Yang : " However, as for our relationship . Will we continue to be friends , sothing more or enemies ? ...... I will leave it to this conversation . "
Said Yang with conviction , her gaze was sharp and determined .
Yang : " However , are you really not going to stop ? Didn't Uncle Qrow say that Lappland is dangerous ? "
Asked Yang looking at her father . Tai , already knowing what his daughter had decided , sighed and stood up , then he walked over and sat down next to his daughter on her bed .
Tai : " I have no such intention . It is your decision . I just don't want you to be in danger . However, Lappland has not hurt you so far . Even when you were at your most vulnerable ........ This girl deserves a chance . That's what your uncle believes . And I will trust him ." Content originally cos from novel★fire
Said Tai with a smile . But , this conversation would have been completely different , had it not been for the fact that Tai knew that Qrow would be next to Yang throughout her eting . Yang was completely safe . This, however, Tai could not say.
Suddenly the father-daughter exchange was interrupted by the arrival of a ssage on Yang's scroll . Looking at her father for permission , which she received and then at her scroll , Yang picked it up and opened the ssage.
Beautiful ( Lappy ) > [ Blondi do you have so free ti ?? ]
Seeing this ssage Yang looked at her father .
