CHANGES ON MENAGERIE Location the RWBYverse, Remnant-Menagerie, Kuo Kuana
Nine days later. Already Menagerie has greatly changed. Not only has Groudon, ascended to the new, respected God and Protector of the faunus. With a massive influx, faunus migrates, coming to Menagerie. Especially with Groudon expanding the Neohaven territory, to rival a small kingdom in itself. To avoid for now easy access from the "unwanted" people...mainly Atlas. This making faunus, questioned Ghira's leadership, as more and more faunus were leaving Kuo Kuana, to move into Neohaven. As the nekomata and prinnies were helping the latest immigrants toward the secret tunnel, towards Neohaven. More devils were showing up in the public eye. Along with more faunus, accepting to become apart of a peerage, reincarnated into devils. It was clear that the future of faunus kind, was prosperous.
As a bullhead, landed in the outskirts of Kuo Kuana. Several white fang goons, started to disembark the airship. With the last to do so being, a hood covered Blake, and edge lord, Adam. After managing to steal this airship, they'd managed to beat all other White Fang cells to Menagerie. Where this new faction, known as Neohaven was making the homeland of faunus, a greater paradise. This was greatly frustrating for a certain panther faunus, is not liking what's happening. These actions from this Neohaven, might spark more animosity, and quite possibly war. His name is Ghira Belladonna, former leader of the White Fang. A stoic faunus, that was tired of fighting, hence his action of stepping down from leadership. Ghira is a tall, muscular, Panther faunus with black hair, a thick beard and yellow eyes. For his top, he wears an open dark-violet coat with white fur trim, exposing a patch of black fur on his chest. Over his beige pants is a matching sash that wraps around his waist and is secured with a large, silver metal buckle. On the shoulder of his coat is a silver metal spaulder, which through a pair of curved strips across the chest attaches as a clasp on the opposite front panel of the coat. While he appreciated the peaceful action of the Neohaven, and remaking Menagerie into the paradise, he'd always knows.
The new Guardian Beast, new technology, and power that Neohaven are creating, will bring discord and contempt from the humans. He didn't want chaos and war to come to Menagerie, sighing. He heard that quite possibly one of the leaders of the Neohaven is coming to Kuo Kuana, passing through the house and leaving to port. In hopes on catching this leader, and try to negotiate, that the Neohaven move location. As much as Ghira doesn't want to force a group to leave, he has to think of the entirety of Menagerie and its people, as a whole.
THE DEVILS APPEARANCE Location Kuo Kuana, Beachside Port
Meanwhile back on the beachside port, the prinnies were finishing, packing things for the devils and the nekomata. As they were getting ready to take the latest addition of the Neohaven Devil Settlement, a group of heavily armed, white fang grunts appeared. Many of them armed with guns of various dust ammunition. Aimed at the prinnies, nekomata, devils, and faunus. The grunts demanded them to surrender, and bring their leader to them. A sweating prinny, said, "Dood come on!? We were just about to go home dood. Can you dood lower the guns?" a white haired cat faunus, she shot at the peg-legs of the prinny. Making said prinny scream.
As a voice full with authority and intimidating spoke, "Enough!! I need them alive for my benefits." Adam Taurus has arrived. The disguised Blake standing by his side, looking at Adam in concern. Thinking about what her partner just said, "his benefits?" she thinks this was for the benefit, of all faunus. Plus what was her brothers and sister doing. Threatening the innocent, and weak of their own people, this isn't the White Fang that she belives in. Then before Blake, could voice her objections, another person joined the commotion. When she'd heard this familiar voice, and saw who it was. Blake, she was surprised by the appearance of her father, Ghira Belladonna. And to Blake's further surprise, her father was armed with his once notorious claws, many thoughts came to her head. As she'd subtlely moved behind everyone. To avoid getting caught by her father. But the situation became even more tense, as Adam drew his Wilt a red katana, and pointed it at Ghira, her father. Constantly Adam, was shattering all views, feelings, and bonds that Blake held for the bull faunus. As Ghira, scraped his claws together, as the Chieftain of Kuo Kuana. It was clear that Ghira, he wasn't in a good mood. In fact Blake, herself was the first to notice this from her stoic father.
Seems that a fight was about to break out. As some of the more loyal to Ghira, started to amass beside the panther faunus, Chieftain. While the White Fang grunts, changed their targets and stood beside their cell leader, Adam. Ghira in a stoic, and intimidating tone, ordered that both the White Fang, and the Neohaven leave Menagerie. This shocked Blake, as she couldn't understand why, her father would want such a group out their homeland. Especially with all the good they'd done for faunus kind. Things were getting more serious, when in a subtle way, a nekomata magically called someone for help. As this situation was endangering more the civilians, over them. Their orders were to prevent doing that, so they only option is to call for aid. Suddenly both Ghira and Adam were about to move. When they were both punched on the face by a red clothed, hooded individual. Blasting both men across the sand. Standing there was Laharl Krichevskoy Bael, one of the leaders of the Neohaven Devil Settlement. And he was in a bad mood. Before both side could react, Kyoko, Ruby, Albedo, Cerberus, Kneesocks, Mizore, Daki, Raven, Nero, Setsuna, Ranko, Caulifla, and Morrigan.
They all appeared with Laharl. Along with Sona, Tsubaki, Tsubasa, Ranma, Reya, Momo, Tomoe, Kodachi, Murayama, Kaori, Katase, Ukyo, Ruruko, and Shampoo. Were also there, along with Laharl and his peerage. When Laharl was called by one of the nekomata there, he'd alerted his girls and friends. And one teleport circle later, they were all there. As both Adam and Ghira groan in pain, as not only was their aura utterly broken, they each felt that their skulls, were hit by a bullhead. They noticed that all their allies, were under the mercy of these unknown people. With their wings, forms, and pulsating power, they'd guess these were the devils, that they heard about. When one of the White Fang grunts, tried to hit the pigtailed, red shirt wearing devil with the back of his rifle. Ranma, he struck the white fang grunt, with a heavy punch and leg sweep, placing his ki and devil magic coated, fingers at the back of the grunt's neck. This triggered all the other devils, smashing the faunus all down to the sand. Shattering their aura, and having them all at their mercy.
Blake, who was under the golden edge, black scythe of the red skinned, horned, light blue haired devil. She saw the situation that they were all in. And desperately tried to calm the devil, it was clear that they were stronger, and have them in their mercy. Kneesocks recognizing one of the main heroines. She'd allowed Blake, to slightly get back on her knees and talk. Blake tried to convince the devils, that it wasn't their intention...or more like her intention...to aggravate them. Or threaten their people. They wanted to talk with one of their higher ranking members, from their faction. Laharl, he'd looked at Blake. Then turn gaze to Albedo, and then Sona, signaling at them. As they nodded to him, they'd disarmed the faunus, and let them back on their feet, with Laharl using his scarf to take Adam and Ghira's weapons respectfully. Laharl, he said, "Can either of you idiots, explain...(glaring, and releasing his magical aura at Adam and Ghira)...what gave you the right to attack our people!?" Sona, she sighed, as Laharl as much as she loves him, he wasn't a subtle negotiator... Albedo and the girls, along with Ranma, laugh as this is typical of Laharl. Seems they'll need Serafall for this. Actually Laharl, he threatened these two faunus, to get their animosity and make things easier for whoever is talking to these idiot. He could hear their growling, as another magic circle appeared. Along with a green suited, Levi-chan...she looked around, and saw the aftermath, and asked, "Can we talk about this like civilized beings now?"
BLAKE'S EYES ARE CLEAR Location the Chieftain's House
Inside of the massive, Asian style house. With only Ghira, Adam, Laharl acting as the guard for Serafall. Along with Ghira's wife Kali Belladonna. Who is quite beautiful. And quite possibly the future of what Blake will look like. Kali has short hair and three gold piercings on her cat ears. Two earings on her right, and one on her left. She wears a black hakama and sandals with white tabi socks. Over her outfit, she wears a black shrug with a long right sleeve and a short left sleeve, gold-leaf trim adorning the opening on the front. She wears long, black arm warmers that extend to the middle finger. The left warmer has a purple band tied around the top and a pair of gold bangles around the wrist. Around her waist is a black and gold sash that trails behind her, with a gold flower-shaped buckle at the end.
Sitting beside her husband. As Blake was outside with the rest of the White Fangs, under disguised, sneaking a glance at her mother. As well the faunus under Ghira's command, Laharl's girls, along with Sona's peerage standing guard outside. Clearly having the advantage, as it wasn't just devils, but the prinnies stayed behind. While the nekomatas returned to Neohaven. All signs showed that it was the devils, that hold all the power and advantages in this negotiations. Blake, she fears that Adam might once again aggravate the situation. The white fang...as she started these thoughts, she'd remembered all the missions and strikes that she has done with Adam. No longer blinded, by rage, frustration, or even love as well. She started to see Adam's anger, and also she'd remembered what she'd done. Attacking many places, and Blake never heard any progress with achieving equality with humans. Less from her cell. Most of the heists involved dust, "why not resources for the more needing?", and why haven't they helped the small settlements around Remnant?" or "why haven't they done things like the Neohaven?". She remembers that there were times that Adam and what Blake, she'd assume were her friends, would send her away. While they'd handled captives...some dark thoughts, entered her head. She hopes that she's wrong. Then there was her father. Her original reason from running away from Menagerie, and not contacting her parents, was a fight about the current state of things with humanity and faunus kind.
Her father, Ghira, he was originally the Head Leader of the White Fang. And she was proud of her father. But Blake, she also saw the faults on her father's views of what the faunus, should do. Peaceful protest... At first the people listen, but then they were ignored again. Instead of keep trying, and helping those in need. Her father was too passive. Could both White Fang from Ghira and now Sienna Khan be wrong? This was the question, plaguing the cat faunus, heroine at the moment. As Blake had these thoughts. Her cat ears, suddenly noticed that things have been quiet. She'd looked inside the house. And noticed that all in the dinning room were discussing thing, with Adam showing to be the most aggressive from his movements. Her father was slightly more calmer, but she'd could tell that things were also bad with him. Judging from her mother's expressions. Lastly the devils, called Serafall Leviathan and Laharl Krichevskoy Bael. They'd looked...calm, almost like they were listening to children tantruming.
Blake wondered, why she...and from the other white fangs were showing, they couldn't hear, how things were going in the discussions. That's when the gray-skinned, purple hooded girl. Raven, Blake belives her name is. She'd explained that Lady Serafall, put up a silence bubble. To keep things private. Blake was amazed by the abilities of these devils, and their ingenuity. As she'd stared at the devils, she'd decided to walk over to the devils. Her so called brothers and sisters called to her, not understanding what Blake was doing. Blake, she'd bowed and apologized to the devils, from what happened before. Also asked if she'd could talk with them. Laharl's girls and friends looked at each other, before telling Blake, "sure", and she'd started talking things with them, as the discussion between the leaders was happening...
