Chapter 58: RWBY Ice Queendom (6)
~Third POV~
Readying herself Negative Weiss has her weapon ready Blake replies to Negative Weiss's words, "Do you really hate the Faunus that much?"
Negative Weiss replied as if it was a simple answer to Blake as if it was true to her in Negative Weiss's voice, "What a thing to say. The Faunus are the ones to hate humanity."
Blake felt offended as she made her voice out loud to Negative Weiss as she yelled, "Not all Faunus are like that! How many times do I have to say it!"
Ruby looks at Blake as she made her voice known trying to calm her down, "Blake calm down!"
However, Blake used this as a distraction to tell Ruby her plan to handle Negative Weiss to her in a serious tone, "I'll distract her… I'll lure Negative Weiss away. You and Yang go search for the Nightmare."
Ruby confused by the sudden planning from Blake agreed as they both get combat ready Negative Weiss talks to herself before confronting the two, "What are you whispering about? Step away from Ruby. I won't allow you to deceive my precious imperial subjects."
"Precious…?"
Blake having her weapon at the ready spoke out loud seeing it differently from her, "The ones you keep locked up in the tower?"
Weiss's eyes widen at this as she grits her teeth as she commenced the first attack.
*Shiii*
Using her weapon two twin pillars of Ice Dust activated creating drill-like energy and slammed it down creaking a row of ice coming towards the two as Ruby and Blake both got out of the way and they jumped away.
*Bang*
Blake took a shot at one of her minions as she lands down with her hand open motioning toward Negative Weiss to come after her as she runs away as did Ruby getting out of Negative Weiss's view.
"Tee hee!"
Next came Dream Whitely as he voices out to Negative Weiss to annoy her, "Look, she ran away, sister!"
Negative Weiss takes off her glasses as she gives her orders to them, "Silence. Klein, Sister… Follow Ruby. I will take care of Blake."
"Aye aye, Sir!"
Like that they both left off to find their targets…
/////
*Woosh*
Ruby was running around the place retreating back when she takes the moment to look around seeing no one was around.
*Boom*
Although she manages to hear explosions of Ice Dust in the far distance while Ruby glances at this with a worried expression…
Taking out one of her coins she was about to use it to meet up with Yang with the door marked there but…
*Shiii*
Using one of the coins transforms it into a Telephone booth grabs the phone and calls Shion in the real world with her voice urgency, "Shion can you please ask Jack to help Blake with her aura."
/////
*BOOM*
*Swoosh*
*BOOM*
*Swoosh*
An explosion was heard as a ball of energy Ice Dust was used as Blake avoided them getting into a firing stance as Weiss began to berate Blake for how persistent she is, "I have never known another person as outrageous such as yourself! I drive you out again and again, but you keep sneaking into my sacred places! Do you know how much you've disturbed the sacred order? What an absolute nuisance."
Blake on the other hand tries to call forth Negative Weiss bull as she responded to her, "Are you that desperate to chase me away? Or do you just hate being around Faunus?"
Without looking at Blake Negative Weiss simply replied to Blake in a cold tone, "Faunus are not allowed to enter. That is the law here!"
*Shiii*
That was when a <Glyphs> appeared above Weiss as she managed to reload her Dust ammo much to Blakes's annoyance she spoke, "She doesn't run out of Dust? I guess anything goes here."
*Shiii*
"!!!"
That was when Blake's aura flared up as she felt empowered as a wave of fresh aura pumped into her soul boosting the effects while Negative Weiss glares hatefully at the aura color of royal blue around Blake immediately recognizing the color and whose it belongs to.
Blake on the other hand felt relieved in this moment having her aura empowered knowing the likely ally in the real world she smiled at this, "Guess I'm not really alone in this. I think Ruby must have called Shion to ask Jack to help us from the real world. His Semblance really is useful as is his comradery towards his allies. I'm thankful for him being around."
Negative Weiss on the other hand had a whole entirely different reaction sensing Jack's aura as she spoke to the action with disgust in her voice, "That aura… Jack… That disgusting Rebel… Brute… The reason why I failed to have the perfect team… Because he met Pyrrha before me my goals… my plans for the future… always going against me every step of the way… Why must that rebel interfere."
Blake noticing this saw a reaction of disgust and anger shown through her trembling fist towards the aura boosted to her. Negative Weiss glanced coldly at Blake speaking out nearly in a venomous tone of her voice, "I see you joined hands with the one who dares disrespect my Imperial Empire. This time, I will finally expel you for eternity!"
*Shiii*
More <Glyphs> appeared as Ursai Grimm came out in the color of being summoned Blake was surprised by this she spoke equally surprised, "Grimm? She can do that, too?"
*Bang*
Avoiding one of the Ursai Grimm by shooting on down she began to backflip away to avoid more harming her jumping from chair to chair and avoiding them with ease as she began to shoot out two coins.
*Shiii*
*Shiii*
The two coins began to manifest into decoys of Blake as it took the attention of the Summoned Grimm as they began to chase after them.
"Are you that desperate to chase me away?"
"Are you that desperate to chase me—"
*Swoosh*
That was before one of the decoys got destroyed by one of Grimm Ursai by its paws shredding it to pieces.
While that decoy was destroyed another decoy was leading the Grimm summoned away from the original Blake as intended.
"Or do you just hate all Faunus?"
"Or do you just hate all Faunus?"
*Shiii*
*Shing*
That was before that decoy was cut down by Negative Weiss herself as she lost focus her eyes looked for Blake but managed to see her running as she rushed after her, "No you won't escape me Faunus! Not after joining hands with the Rebel!"
*Woosh*
Using her <Glyphs> to propel herself to the Blake she slashed at it but…
*Shing*
"A shadow!"
That was when Negative Weiss realized that Blake Semblance <Shadow> was used to fool her into believing Blake went that way she spoke to herself confused, "But her semblance never left behind an actual clone before… unless…"
Negative Weiss's eyes narrowed into a glare as her fist wielding her Myrtenaster trembled in silent rage knowing the person responsible, "Unless that Rebel boosted not only her aura but… her semblance as well… Jack. You are truly an enemy of the Imperial Empire. You always seem to find a way to interfere with my life one way or another."
Not soon after Negative Weiss was then alerted by Whitely as he calmly and playfully mock Weiss as he spoke to her, "Even though I came all the way here to tell you that Ruby and Yang escaped?"
Hearing this Negative Wiess then turned her head surprised by the news as Whitely began to annoy Negative Weiss further, "Don't forget your responsibilities, dear sister."
….
Negative Weiss was left in the silence about what to do next…
/////
Elsewhere inside the Dream Scape Ruby and Yang managed to defeat Negative Weiss's minions as Ruby called Shion to have their aura boosted to easily hurry the process along and provide Blake with support against Negative Weiss.
Now escaping from that Ruby and Yang soon come across an open courtyard of the front lawn that belongs to a mansion they go to the center of it to reveal a path the two enter inside the thorns blocking it turned away.
As they enter the area as it was pitch black…
"Ewe, it's pitch black."
*Shiii*
That was when the Relic in Ruby's hands began to glow a brilliant red as it shined the area to reveal a thorn doorway Yang saw this as she comment on it, "The thorny briar patch is a Grimm, isn't it?"
Ruby nodding raises her Relic up as it began to shine a brilliant red color illuminating the area making the thorns go away followed Ruby's command, "Please, take us to where Weiss is."
Like that a door was shown as Ruby and Yang commented on how fast it was going for them Yang spoke out first being positive about it, "Man this was a breeze. Jack really saved our hides with him boosting our Aura like that. Certainly, made taking out those robots a breeze."
Ruby nods in agreement as she commented how easy it was with their strengths enhanced thanks to their aura, "Uh huh. Guess we owe him again right sis? I mean he came through for us not only once not twice but three times. Kind of makes him a hero of sorts."
Yang could only smile mischief at Ruby's opinion of Jack as she spoke out to tease her, "Oh…? Does my little sis have a crush? I mean he does fit your knight in shining armor helping others in need right from story books right…?"
Yang playfully wiggle her eyebrows at that as Ruby was clueless but soon realizes what Yang meant as she replied with a blush on her face, "Huh… wait a second… NO! I mean his a great friend and ally and have saved me more than one time. But were just friends Yang! I mean he does look – Wah! What am I even talking about we have to save Weiss Yang!"
Hearing this Yang stifles a laugh at this seeing how Ruby was easily distracted at this while Yang thinks to herself with a smile on her face, 'Oh? I guess my little sis does have a crush. Oh, this School year is going to be fun to tease Ruby. This will be the Yang era for sure with this info. But better get back to saving Weiss first though then tease Ruby about this later.'
Yang nods her head at this as they returned to important matters at hand.
The time for teasing could wait after they save their ally.

"Achoo!"
Sneezing a bit out of nowhere in the real world Shion asked Jack with some confusion in his voice, "Are you cold Jack? I didn't think you would get an allergy from helping the girls out even though you aren't in a dream yet."
Recovering a bit as Jack managed to wipe off the snot from him as he replied casually to Shion without realizing the last part he said, "Sniff… Nah. I think someone was just talking about me Shion… Wait what was that last part you said?"
