Bury The Light (Male Faunus!Vergil!Reader x Pyrrha Nikos)
Part 23
It was a cloudy day, and the team are following a mossy stone tile path through the wilderness. While walking, Nora stretches her arms up wide.
Nora:"Another day, another adventure!"
Pyrrha:"What's on the agenda today, (Y/N)?"
(Y/N):"Walking."
Yang:"With a side of?"
Dante:"Walking."
Ruby sighed as she walks with them.
Ruby:"Haven is a lot farther away than I thought."
Ren:"Ruby? How long did you think this journey was going to take?"
Ruby:"I don't know! Yang and I grew up in a small area; We've never been this far away from home."
(Y/N):"For how long?"
Ruby:"Maybe like, uh... two weeks?"
(Y/N):"I see."
Ruby:"Uh no. Maybe three or something? Look, whatever."
Yang:"Don't worry about it, sis. I'm sure we can get to Haven as soon as we can."
Dante:"And you'll get the hang of this soon."
Ruby:"Hmm..okay."
Then, Ruby looks up again after a beat and notices something ahead.
Ruby:"Hey, what's that?"
Nora jumps onto a slightly fallen post of a fence to get a closer look at a wall and building ahead. Dante then checks the map.
Dante:"That's... strange. I didn't think we'd be hitting another village for a few days."
Nora:"Are those buildings... damaged?"
(Y/N):"We should search for survivors!"
The team then went running into the village, with Nora leaping onto the wall and to a rooftop from there and the team discover the town to be empty.

Ruby lifts a fallen plank of wood to find only plant outgrowth underneath. (Y/N) and Pyrrha enters a house only to find nothing. Dante opens a door and looks around inside to find nothing as well.
Yang:"Find anything?"
Dante:"Nope."
(Y/N):"No sign of anyone."
Nora:"Nothing over here!"
Ren:"It almost seems like... the town was abandoned."
They kept looking around until Nora calls for them.
