"Today on AN, we have another case vigilante who goes under the name of Icecream!-"
Aegis closed the Atlas News channel and looked at the innocent-looking girl with mismatched colors.
"So, what did I say about not getting caught?"
Aegis asked Neo, who just kept tilting her head cutely as if she was thinking hard about it.
/That I should cover up after myself?/
Neo asked as she smiled at Aegis as if she found a new epiphany.
"Neo, dear, little sister, love, please give your big brother a break and kill your victims without being seen. You have semblance I know would make them impossible to catch you. The sole reason they have you on video feed is that you wanted to be caught."
Aegis said to Neo, who just grinned like a cat that caught prey when he called her dear and love.
/Eh, im sure the plebs of Atlas love their new hero./
Neo said as she seductively came to Aegis and bent down to give Aegis a teasing kiss.
/And, you, gave, me, permission./
Neo said each word with a gap as she kissed Aegis between the gaps.
/Mh, you are better than any ice cream./
Neo said as she licked her lips and walked out of the office with a sway of her hips, making some of Aegis's primal instincts want to catch her, and well...
"Hahh"
Aegis gave out a tired smile as he saw Neo walk seductively.
"These girls."
Aegis said and stood up as to complete at least some work now that his little sisters started a fight for his attention.
Or rather for his free time as Aegis made it clear that he needed some time to manage the SDC and SPCS still growings business and private army kingdoms.
Aegis made his way through the mansion until he found himself in a basement that was one of the new and most secure secrets of the Schnee mansion.
Aegis opened the doors and saw a mature-looking woman with wild black hair and red eyes staring at him with such ferocity that Aegis was unsure if she wanted to kill him or something other as her eyes didn't betray anything else.
"How are you today, Mrs.Branwen?"
Aegis asked with a false smile as he watched Raven's eyes narrow.
"Mrs.Branwen, we can't go on until you cooperate, so please let us not repeat the last incident."
Aegis said with a smile, and this one was genuine as he played on one of the prison walls an Aegis with Raven bent over his legs as he spanked her butt with such strength that Raven in the video feed was crying.
What happened last time was Aegis coming to the room just to be assaulted by Raven with her magic.
Aegis knew what kind of person Raven Branwen was and knew that the sole thing she could ever respect was a strength...
So Aegis made it clear that even with her magic at her hands, Raven is unable to hurt Aegis, who either dodged her strikes or just slapped her ass as some naughty child making the enraged Raven even more enraged.
Aegis didn't want to give up on Maidens powers as he knew that killing Raven would make the magic powers fly off, so instead Aegis knew that if he wanted cooperative Maiden, he needed to subdue Raven, and what's better at subduing a person as Raven than utter power humiliation?
So Aegis spanked her each time Raven dared to attack him, making it that Raven was sitting on her chair and looking at Aegis with the itention to kill.
"Mrs.Branwen, I really don't wish to do this, but you know that if you don't cooperate, your life could become much worse right?"
Aegis asked her.
"After all, there is plenty of scientists who wish to look at how a Maidens magic works, and what's better than a Maiden herself as a guinea pig?"
Raven's eyes just narrowed more.
And it was the truth as Aegis got many requests to study Maiden, but Aegis wanted willing Maiden as the benefits outweighed the risks.
"Or, do you wish for me to give you to others? Im sure Ozpin and Ironwood would kiss me feat if I gave them a Maiden. After all, their little brotherhood now stands on its last legs."
Aegis said as he watched Raven's eyes narrow, but this time there was both panic and confusion in these blood-red eyes.
"Yes, as I know about Maidens, I know about that shadow war, and I don't stand on either side."
Aegis said and made another video play on the walls.
"Look how you can become if you don't cooperate."
Aegis said and let Raven watch with wide eyes as on the walls played feed of Hazel that was looking as some insane man as he was under the hallucinogens.
"This is one of Salems inner circle members, well probably the last still living, as I made sure that her human and faunus sympathizers get free ticked from the mortal realm."
Aegis said with a smile as another video played, and this one showed Salem, who was speaking with Tyrian and others, just to be cut short as the video ended.
"You see, what Tyrian had inside of his body was a little gift from me to Salem, a gift of a new start as the bomb had enough power to reduce everything in fifty meters to dust."
Aegis said with a smile and watched the compression of both horror and joy shown in Raven's eyes.
"I read through the files on you, so I know you are a survivalist."
Aegis said and looked into Raven's eyes.
"So, let's give you way out of this war to survive, ok?"
Aegis said, and Raven finally said something.
"Im listening."
Aegis smiled as he didn't need to use the sleeping agents and make Raven into a guinea pig if she didn't change her stance. Aegis was ready to risk losing the Maidens powers as he would give her to his scientist for experiments.

"Oz! No matter how much I hate my sister, you can't leave her in that brat's hands!"
Qrow said after he came from a mission just to get hit with news of his sister suddenly appearing from nowhere to her daughter and man she left behind.
"I didn't say we will do nothing, Qrow, but this situation is more complicated than it looks. No matter what we say, there is no question Raven was caught in one of her raids on the village."
Ozpin said as he had headaches from the current situation, no matter how he requested the SPCS or Atlas council, both of them had a valid reason to detain Raven, and Ironwood was stonewalled by the rest of the council that denied his request to escalate the situation because of criminal.
When Raven was still on Patch, there was a way for them to get her into their hands, but the SPCS was prepared and immediately transported her to an unlawful region where the council didn't hold powers.
"Then call the Schnee brat!"
Qrow said, and Ozpin pinched his nose, Qrow was one of Ozpin's most trusted and a good pawn, but Qrow was absolutely unaware of how the higher powers thought.
NO matter what Ozpin said, the SPCS just asked him what a Headmaster of Academy wants with a common criminal and that they were unaware that a Headmaster of Academy was given rights to manage the legal system.
"Iris Goldstein, a secretary under Aegis Schnee, did approve of our appointment with him, but Qrow, I will tell it just once. If you want to come, you will not speak out of turn."
Ozpin said and massaged his head again as it did cost him a lot of favors to get that devil woman Iris to approve his request to speak with Aegis Schnee.
"Don't worry Oz, and I know what I should do."
Qrow said, and Ozpin suddenly had a feeling this was a bad idea to bring him to such meeting.
