Chapter 4
(3rd Person)
Our goof ball of a main character was currently standing on the opposite side of Professor Ozpin's desk, Aidan leant against the wall nearest the door with his arms crossed and listening in on their conversation. (Y/N) currently had a pair of goggles on his head as he was in the middle of testing out a new blowtorch that he 'found' on his way to class.
Ozpin: Team RWBY will no doubt investigate for clues concerning the white fang Mr (L/N)... why do you have a blowtorch in your hand?
(Y/N): I found it!
Ozpin: Where?
(Y/N): The place where I found the blowtorch duh!
Aidan: Don't be a smartass...
(Y/N): Ha! I told you I had my Dad's intelligence!
Aidan: For the last time, no you don't! Smartass in a different way you idiot!
Ozpin: Please, save your bickering for outside my office. Mr (L/N), I need your full attention, so please put the blowtorch away.
(Y/N): Ok!
Without any reason whatsoever, (Y/N) tossed the blowtorch out the window behind Ozpin where it shattered the glass, about five seconds later a familiar voice shouted in pain when the blowtorch slammed into their head.
(1st Person Cardin)
Alright, that (Y/N) guy won't humiliate me this time! I got a plan to finally take him down, he may have gotten my jaw last time, but now I'll... my thoughts were interrupted by something metal and heavy slamming into my head. I couldn't help but shout in pain, but then I looked down and saw a blowtorch, before I knew it, I saw the trigger was taped to constantly turn on...
Cardin: Oh shit...
(3rd Person)
Fire, screams, that's all Ozpin heard. He didn't even bother to look outside, instead he looked at (Y/N) with an exasperated look, (Y/N) returned it with one of confusion.
(Y/N): What?
Ozpin: You do realise you just placed Mr Winchester in the infirmary again?
(Y/N): I did? I mean, I didn't break his jaw again, so how could he have... Oh! Ha ha ha ha!
Aidan: What's so funny? He's literally burning alive down there...
(Y/N): He he he, I wonder how cooked bird tastes...
Both Aidan and Ozpin stared at the boy with sweat drops forming on the back of their heads, Aidan was thinking how stupid the teenager really was, Ozpin was simply questioning his decision and (Y/N)'s sanity.
Ozpin: Moving on... since team RWBY are capable I trust they will do well, so I'm telling you Mr (L/N), do not interfere, and do not help them...
(Y/N): I'm sorry? Did you just tell me not to help out my friends?
Ozpin: That is exactly what I said yes...
Ozpin was quickly cut off by a bullet whizzing past his face cutting his cheek. He was genuinely surprised that (Y/N) would attempt something like this, what was even more spine-chilling for the headmaster was there was no serious expression on his face, he still had his happy smile with his eyes closed while holding Gain in his left hand. Aidan didn't do anything, he just watched on in curiosity.
(Y/N): Let me make one thing clear: no one, and I mean no one, not even you can tell me if I can't help or be with my friends, I value my friends more than I value myself. If you ever tell me something like this again, I will make sure that you learn painfully that you can't tell my friends or me what to do. Ok?
Aidan: (Y/N), calm yourself, he was only testing you...
(Y/N): Say what?
Ozpin wipes the blood off his cheek with a small smile as his aura healed the small cut on his face, he stood up while turning to the broken window behind him.
Ozpin: Aidan is very perceptive, it was merely a test. I know by now that you are very protective of your friends, I knew saying something like that was a dangerous game with you, I was merely making sure you really are you Mr (L/N).
(Y/N): Huh? You were testing me? You thought I was a fake!? How could you!?
(Y/N) was shaking the silver-haired professor back and forth while comical tears flowed down his face, the headmaster still had a stoic expression on his face, Aidan however was staring at the broken window, specifically the one bullet hole (Y/N) created just now with one thought on his mind.
Aidan: Where did that bullet go?
(1st Person Cardin)
Dammit, I managed to put the flames out, I only managed to burn some of my hair off. Luckily I was wearing my armour instead of my uniform. I growled while patting down my charred armour. When I get my hands on the punk that threw that, I'm so gonna... again my thoughts were cut off by something fast and sharp entering the back of my leg shattering my knee, I screamed... like a man of course!
(3rd Person)
(Y/N): Was that a girl screaming just now? Oh no! Ruby! Yang! Blake! Weiss! Pyrrha! Nora! Velvet!
Aidan: No, none of them, not even a girl...
(Y/N): Not even a girl? But, their scream!
Ozpin: Voices can be deceiving Mr (L/N), now then, let's discuss the real reason why I brought you here...
The two teenagers in the room instantly silenced themselves as the headmaster of Beacon suddenly donned a serious expression on his face.
Ozpin: Melissa, the woman is tricky. You and I both know (Y/N) that she wasn't using her full power every time you two fought...
(Y/N): Yeah, it was the reincarnation spell, it brings you back to life but restricts your power greatly. The only way you can get your full power is fully reincarnating the person, but to do that you'd need a live sacrifice.
Ozpin: Indeed, I'm surprised you know this (Y/N).
(Y/N): Melissa's been in my head enough for me to see what was in her head as well Ozzy.
Aidan: So, this means that whoever revived Melissa is planning to fully revive her, not to mention what she warned you about a few days ago: the fall of Beacon. Sounds like the person who's going to be sacrificed is no doubt from Beacon.
Ozpin: If my theory is correct on who is the one behind Melissa's reincarnation, then the most likely candidate is me...
(Y/N): You?
Ozpin: There's so much about me you don't know (Y/N), however you aren't ready to learn these secrets.
(Y/N): But why? If you tell me now, wouldn't that make this easier for us?
Ozpin: No, if you want to know more about me, you need to trust me, and right now, I can tell you don't trust me enough to understand anything I would tell you.
Aidan stepped forward while uncrossing his arms, he stared down Ozpin when hearing that, despite (Y/N) being an idiot, he didn't deserve being left in the dark.
Aidan: Ozpin, (Y/N) is someone who deserves to know this. You know him enough to know that he won't judge you, so why are you holding this information back?
Ozpin: That's enough for now, (Y/N), Aidan, you two are dismissed...
Aidan: We're not soldiers!
(Y/N) placed a reassuring hand on his friend's shoulder, Aidan turned to him with a surprised look.
Aidan: Don't you want to know what he's hiding!?
(Y/N): I've never doubted my friends, even if Ozpin doesn't think I trust him. I do, guess I just need to prove it, I never pry into private business, I may be an idiot, but I at least see when I need to prove my trust to my friends.
Aidan: Ozpin is not your friend!
(Y/N): Of course he is!
Aidan: What?
(Y/N): Ozpin's the reason I'm here Aidan. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have met such great friends like you, team RWBY, JNPR and CFVY. Yeah, I'm curious as to what these 'secrets' are, but I don't really have a right to pry if Ozpin doesn't believe in my trust. So that's why Ozzy, I'll prove my trust to ya!
(Y/N) finished his sentence with a thumbs up and a determined smile on his face, Aidan was momentarily stunned by (Y/N)'s declaration. He didn't think the teenager would be this trusting, he couldn't tell if the boy was stupid or extremely loyal. It caused memories to surface making him shake his head while looking down.
Aidan: Fine... don't blame me when this comes back to bite you...
(Y/N): He he, come on! Let's go get some brownies, then after that we're going straight to team RWBY's dorm to help out in their investigation!
Aidan: But, Ozpin...
(Y/N): Did you forget your own words? Ozpin was testing me, it's simple really: he actually wants us to go ahead and help team RWBY!
Ozpin: Actually, I was being serious about that...
(Y/N):...
Aidan: Ozpin, I suggest you run now.
(Y/N): Ten seconds, that's all I'm gonna give you, when time's up. Say hello to Pain, Gain, and maybe Sting here!
(Y/N) emphasised his threat by gripping the broadsword his mother used to wield on his back, Aidan told him that he should really use any weapon he had available. Even if it was only given to him because (M/N) wanted her son to become a male version of her.
Ozpin: You wouldn't really attack your own headmaster and risk expulsion, would you?
(Y/N): I'll stop if you let me help team RWBY, oh, and six seconds left...
Ozpin: You're bluffing...
(Y/N): Four seconds...
Aidan: He's one hundred percent serious Professor.
(Y/N): Three seconds...
Ozpin: Mr (L/N)...
The headmaster was instantly intimidated at seeing the dark aura surrounding the boy while Pain and Gain became gauntlets on his fists despite one arm being injured.
(Y/N): Two seconds...
Ozpin: You wouldn't dare...
(Y/N): One second...
Suddenly (Y/N) dashed forward with his gauntlet outstretched causing Ozpin to go wide-eyed, he went to raise his walking cane to defend himself, however he saw the gauntlet covered fist heading right for his face. He realised the speed at which (Y/N) was going would make it impossible to defend himself and he looked serious enough to hit him out the window.
Ozpin: Ok! Ok! You can help team RWBY!!
A gust of wind blew pat the silver-haired man's face, Pain was literally almost touching his nose while behind the gauntlet, (Y/N) had a serious expression on his face. But it quickly turned into his signature wide grin.
(Y/N): Gotcha!
He lightly rapped his fist against Ozpin's forehead causing the headmaster to jump slightly in fear causing (Y/N) to giggle like a child. Aidan sighed in annoyance while crossing his arms at his student's childish antic.
Aidan: Ok, enough of that. Let's go...
(Y/N): Ok! Ok! Don't rush me! Sorry Ozzy! But it was the only way I could ever convince ya to change ya mind!
(Y/N) patted the man's head before placing a mug full of coffee he seemingly pulled out of nowhere.
(Y/N): Here, a way to say sorry for almost making your pants turn brown!
Ozpin: What?
Humming a tune, (Y/N) deactivated Pain and Gain before skipping out the door with his signature closed-eyed wide smile on his face. Ozpin was still in shock over what just happened and Aidan could tell what he was thinking about.
Aidan: You easily saw it, didn't you? His lie...
Ozpin: He, he was actually going to hit me, and possibly kill me, that speed and strength, it's a miracle he managed to stop before...
Aidan: Ozpin, I've only known the guy for a whole day... and I know two things: he's an idiot, and he values his friends above anything else. Threatening them, denying him to help or see them, or basically anything negative to do with his friends and (Y/N) becomes a completely different person. You should know that by now, seeing as how you've been observing him his whole time in Beacon...
Ozpin remained silent, he would usually be calm and stoic. However, that near-death experience shook him greatly, what shook him even more was that the threat came from the person he least likely thought it would come from.
Aidan: Next time, make sure you don't ever use his friends against him for anything. In that moment, he won't care if you're his headmaster or his own mother, he'll kill you on the spot if you threaten, hurt or do anything else that could harm his friends. Sorry Professor, but (Y/N) is not someone you can manipulate into your little group as long as he has his friends...
With that Aidan left the office, Ozpin sat back down in his chair, his eyes still slightly wide as his heart still hammering against his chest. He grew to respect the boy for his determination to help and value his friends, but now, he's grown a natural fear of putting any of his friends in danger.
Ozpin: I think... (Y/N) scares me even more than Salem ever could...
(1st Person Cardin)
No more attacks? Am I safe? Phew! Ok, now I can get to the infirmary... what's that? The trees and grass are flowing wildly towards me! Holy shit that's a strong wind! The strong gust instantly took me off my feet and blasted me off the Beacon grounds and straight to Vale below.
Cardin: I'll get whoever did this! And I'll make sure you feel the pain!!
To be continued...
