Of Mother's

Aegis looked at the group or mob before him with a sense of deja vu as he watched the flashes of simple yet fully functional cameras, recording devices, and photographs.

From all around the world, even in the state of war, it was, people still were more than interested in the aliens, and as such, Aegis finally gave them what they wanted and invited top news channels or agencies to sate this world curiosity about the enigmatic king that rarely showed himself.

Plus it was one of the last things Aegis would do before going back home as he wasn't needed there, Solitas had a fully functioning embassy and deals with world superpowers, as such, Aegis chose to let this world play its games without his meddling as he was content to fish for opportunities the chaos brought.

"Mister Schnee!"

Aegis looked at the man who had a fox channel nameplate and didn't use his honorific of royalty, well, that was expected from the man of the country that boasted as paragons of democracy.

"Yes?"

"Can you tell us what do you think about democracy? As information about your world was released, we found that before you found the Kingdom as King, there was a fully functional democratic council, can you tell us why did you tear such a free system to build your dictatorship?"

The man asked and Aegis thought for a moment about what that man said, then he remembered that Album took it upon herself to release some information about Solitas history, and present, as to coerce even more people, yes she let some dark matters too as to not paint pure propaganda that would be easily noticed, but most of the things she released was the truth as current Solitas was much better than what it once was.

"Democracy is a beautiful dream you should follow, but..."

Aegis said and as a demonstration, lifted his hand and created a miniature glyph on his hand from which an ice cone in the form of an arrow emerged.

"It's a dream in a world where people aren't equal, and I don't speak about the power of money or influence, even if these two things have a big influence in any elections in a so-called democracy, but I speak about pure raw power."

Aegis said and behind him thousands of miniature glyphs lighted up as arrows emerged from them, making everyone nervous, still it didn't stop them from recording it.

"If you live in a world where everyone has a superpower, by its magic or our semblances, or any other power, then democracy fall short if the people with these powers don't wish to follow the rules the weaker men bound them with, for democracy to work in such world you would need to have enough powerful people to enforce the laws and rules."

Aegis said and the glyphs evaporated in ethereal blue light that made his background radiate in a mesmerizing light show.

"Otherwise, you would just create a system that would protect the powered criminals as they would be equals equeals to non powered people... Or you would create more enemies with laws that would count just for powered people who would see it as discrimination against them..."

Aegis said and stood up.

"But, but in my kingdom is it different, as everyone is equal under Schnee family that stands above all, power and iron fist that enforces it is the reason why my kingdom is criminal free, why there isn't discrimination or crime as nobody wishes to gain Schnee attention, my attention."

Aegis said with a smile as his eyes shone, making some people in the group look at him with awe, and some with fear.

"The difference is, I make rules because Im the strongest."

---------------------------

Album shook her head at her's brother actions as she observed the forums and other media chats that were spammed with theories about the need for powerful wizards to enforce the law on wizards and magical's, and at the same time, they asked why would someone with such strength follow a non-magical leadership.

Album understood what her big brother wanted to say, to enforce peace, you needed strength to crush opposition, otherwise, any other peace would be just a pretense.

And now with the war between magical and non-magical, the people who were raised in a free and democratic world started to see the appeal in seeing someone like her big brother in power as it was clear that without power, there couldn't be safe.

-----------------------------

Weiss looked with a smile as Ruby hugged her sister Yang as she trashed into her as a bullet, Yang with experience in growing up with Ruby, just smiled as she hugged her little sister back.

"It is good to see you."

Blake said with a smile as she embraced Weiss who returned the hug with equal strength.

"Yes..."

"GOOD! TEAM RWBY IS BACK AND READY TO KICK ASS!"

Ruby screamed, making the other girl smile.

"Ara ara, it seems my other kitty has good friends."

Said voice and team RWBY looked at Kaly who looked at them with a cat grin on her face.

"Oohhh, Blake's mom!"

Ruby said with cheer.

"Yes my mom, and I would like for you to use honorifics."

Said voice and everyone looked at younger Blake in the outfit that looked as a merge between ninja light outfit and samurai armor in black color and blue snowflake symbol on the heart side of the chest.

"Ohhh! Mini Blake!"

"Shit... You are her sister..."

The younger Blake said as she evaded the red missile.

"At least I know how to take care of you..."

Younger Blake said as she had experience with younger Ruby on sugar crash, just to jump and hiss like a cat as she felt someone touch her cat ears.

"SSSSsssshhhhhhhh!!!"

"O-oh... Sorry, I don't know why did I do it..."

Said Weiss with a red face as she put her hand behind her back after her instincts of wanting to pet cute things.

"Oh-oh, that's gold!"

Yang roared out with a laughing fit.

"You... You are truly different..."

Younger Blake said with narrowed eyes on the red-faced Weiss.

Weiss, Weiss Blake knew wouldn't never done something like this, now come to think of it her Weiss almost never touched someone who wasn't her Lord...

To see such a difference made Blake even more confused...

-------------------------

"LET MEEE!!!!"

"No..."

"FUCK YOU! AND FUCK ALL OF YOU! LET THE FUCK OF ME! I WANT TO KILL THEM!"

Yang screamed as her eyes were red, both from semblance and tears, as her hair was on fire.

"And what would you do? Risk your life, and die and let Ruby alone in this world?"

Raven asked with a stern gaze, even if the death of Tai and Qrow weighted on her mind, she wasn't about to let her daughter, and daughter of her friend alone, not after she finally started to get to know them.

"Ruby..."

Yang said as the sense of clarity hit her after mentioning of her younger sister who was now huddled on a bed in Schnee's mansion where Raven took them with her semblance after hearing the fate of Patch.

"Y-Yang..."

The red huddle girl said out as she heard her name being called.

"O-oh, Ruby..."

Yang said with teary eyes and a shaky voice as she embraced her younger sister who returned the hug with strength as the girls huddled with each other as they cried.

Raven looked at them with sadness, but at the same time, there was determination in her eyes.

Now that Tai and her brother were dead... And Summer was nowhere to be found, she was the last person who could take care of them, and after living with Schnee family, there was little desire that was lit after seeing how much happiness family could bring you, making Raven determined to take care of her daughter, no a daughter's...

In the rare sense of kinship, Raven had she slowly came to huddled girls and enveloped them with her hands, making them freeze for a moment, just to start cry after as they buried their faces into Raven's chest who slowly patted their heads.

"It would work... It must..."

Raven whispered as she ran her hands through the crying girl's hair.

-----------------

In a different world, one woman's silver eyes shot open from her sleep as she clenched her hand where her heart was in pain that came from a sudden sense of loss.

----------------

In Mistral's silent night, a woman walked with a bloodied blade as she arrived at her last destination of the night, the last family that needed to be taken care of before the Mistral could truly prosper...

Following her were people with the same determined eyes.

------------------

"Hey."

"Hey, you."

"Stop it... Octavia, why do you think we are there?"

"How should I know it?"

"Well."

"Oh, because I like to flirt, I must immediately know what the men know?"

"I didn't say that."

Dew said with a mild scowl that turned into a smile as Octavia punched her into the shoulder with friendly strength.

"No matter, somehow we gained the glorious Schnee family attention, so we are there for lien."

Said Gwen who sat with Nebula.

"Yes, that is the thing, we are just girls with no achievement to our name, so how we gained their attention."

"Maybe they want us to become king's toys?"

"Well, I wouldn't mind that."

"Octavia!"

"What? He looks good, no, more than good, and already have enough women to let us have our own freedom, plus you cant say you wouldn't want to have that power his women hold."

Dew scoffed at Octavia's perspective that saw it being right to follow strongest.

Album looked at the bickering girls with mild amusement as she looked at their life reports the agents found after Ruby and Weiss from an alternate reality told them about them, making Album interested, thus making the girls who were just about to start in the academy a jump at the opportunity to work for the most powerful man in Remnant.

A team NDGO, such interesting find, no matter, Album will find if there is anything interesting about these girls, and even if not, her big brother deserved to be surrounded with eye candies these girls were...
