RWBY x Destiny Volume 5 (Homecoming)

Chapter 14

Kai's POV

I was in the living room in the couch drinking some coffee, Oscar, who is currently letting Ozpin take over, and Qrow we seen sitting together. I take a sip from my cup.

Qrow: Things aren't looking good, Oz.

Ozpin: Ever the optimist. *sips from his cup* While I would not say our current predicament is... ideal, I think we can both agree that the situation could be much worse. Humanity is a resilient force.

Qrow: Oz, pro Huntsmen like that don't just bite it all at once. Salem's powerful. It seems like her reach is growing by the day.

Kai: And also she has Ghaul's Red Legion army, she has more fire power and supports. And by the looks of it Ghaul can probably convince others to join him, for example the White Fangs maybe other people as well *to Ozpin* What does that say about humanity?

Ozpin: That there are indeed a misguided few who have filled their hearts with malice. It doesn't take a great number of people to cause harm, but I still believe there are far more people in this world willing to prevent it.

As Ozpin is about to take another sip, Ruby is heard walking into the room.

Ruby: Um, excuse me?

Kai: what's up, Rub.

Ozpin: Ah, Miss Rose, join us. We were just about to gather everyone to discuss our next steps.

Ruby: Oh, uh, great.

Qrow: Something on your mind kiddo?

Ruby: Uh... uh, it's... if it's okay to ask.

Qrow: Of course.

Kai: Let me guess, is about the Relic, is it?

Ruby: *nodded* Well, uh... we've been talking about the Relic at Haven... and the Spring Maiden, but... what about the Fall Maiden?

Ozpin: Cinder?

Ruby: Does that mean... Salem has the Beacon Relic?

Ozpin and Qrow share a brief look with each other.

Ozpin: Very astute, Miss Rose, I was wondering who would be the first to ask. No, thankfully she does not. It's true that the Relic at Haven is very much at risk, and for now, that should remain our primary focus. Let's just say I made finding the Relic at Beacon a... bit more challenging than at the other schools.

Ruby: Oh. *sighs in relief* That's good to hear.

Ozpin: It is, but let's not forget the challenges that still lie before us.

Kai: And also if they find it, it will trigger the bomb I left there.

They all looked at me with curiosity.

Ozpin: Bomb?

Kai: Yeah, if they find it the bomb will trigger and take them all to hell.

Qrow: What kind of bomb?

He take a sip of his coffee.

Kai: Capable of blowing up the entire school and mountain that's holding it.

Qrow went spit his coffee on Ozpin face.

Qrow: What?!

Ozpin: *wiping* Do you have any clue how long that place took to build?

Ruby walk up to me and lean close.

Ruby: You wouldn't.

Kai: *chuckle* I was just kidding.
