Heroes of Beacon
Chapter 3: New Home
Previous ChapterNext ChapterQrow turned to the two young Faunus “You two need to come with me, it isn’t safe for two children to be alone. My brother-in-law lives nearby, I’m going to see if you stay with him. Also don’t tell him that you’re from another world, he has enough on his plate as is and taking care of two more kids will be more than enough stress is that clear!”
Tempest turned to Rainbow “We won’t say anything, right Rainbow Dash?!”
Rainbow boasted “I won’t say anything I promise and I never break a promise!”
Qrow raid an eyebrow before shaking his head, as they left the hidden building, he covered the door again and then they started to move through the vibrant forest. Just as they past a tree it cracked and began to fall over towards Tempest for no apparent reason, Rainbow noticed immediately shouted “Tempest!”
Qrow looked around to see the tree falling, before he could even move Tempest slammed her elbow into the tree shattering it into wood chips and leaf piles. Rainbow blinked “How did you do that?”
Tempest frowned “I was a commander of an entire army remember, it seems even in this body I haven’t lost those instincts and I have retained some of my strength as well.”
Qrow thought to himself (Thing just keep getting weirder and weirder.)
Rainbow Dash frowned “Why aren’t more those Grimm creatures approaching us?”
Qrow turned to her “Grimm are incredibly hostile but they are not dumb, they can tell when they can’t overcome an opponent and decided to avoid attacking them.”
Tempest nodded “I see, that does make sense.”
Rainbow frowned “Why did that tree fall on Tempest anyway?”
Qrow sighed “All Huntsmen and Huntresses have a unique energy known as Aura, every Huntsmen or Huntress has a Semblance a special ability unique to them. Min is called misfortune and it is uncontrollable it causes random bouts of bad luck to those around me.”
Tempest shrugged “It’s fine, if you can’t control I’m not bothered, besides I’m tough.”
Qrow was silent for the rest of the trip still processing what she said, the moon was high in the sky as they arrived in a open clearing with a nice quaint wooden house, Qrow banged on the door “Taiyang I have to discuss something with you?!”
Rainbow and Tempest watched as a muscular man with blonde hair opened the door, he was wearing a pair of brown cargo shorts as well as brown leather vest over a tan dress shirt, he frowned “Qrow why are here this late at night I just put Yang and Ruby in bed.”
Qrow frowned “Tai, I wouldn't come here in the middle of the night to bang on your door in the middle of night if I was important” he then stepped aside revealing Tempest and Rainbow Dash “I found these two roaming around the forest alone, they got attacked by a pack of Beowolves.”
Taiyang frowned “You are telling me that they have to stay here with us?”
Qrow frowned “At least for the night, we can up with something better tomorrow.”
Taiyang sighed “Fine, I’ll get a couple of sleeping bags.”
Tempest yawned “I’ll be fine “ Taiyang and Qrow blinked as she laid down on the wooden floor and quickly feel asleep, they turned around to see Rainbow pulling a cloud inside which she then laid on and fell asleep.
Qrow shrugged “That works I guess.”
Taiyang turned to him “You are not bothered by that?!”
Qrow said to him as he walked through the door “Yes, now I’m going to sleep.” Qrow transformed into a crow flew up to a tree and fell asleep.
Taiyang sighed “I’m too tired for this, I hope I’ll wake up and find out this is all a bad dream.”
The next morning Tempest groaned as she felt someone poking her, she looked up to see a five year old fair skinned girl with black hair that ended in dark red tips, she heard a voice but it wasn’t from the girl poking her. Tempest turned her moderate opal eyes resting on a seven year old fair skinned girl with bright blonde frowning “Ruby she was trying to sleep, Uncle Qrow told us she was out there for over a day without rest.”
Ruby pouted as she jumped off Tempest “But Yang I just wanted to say hi.”
Tempest groaned as she sat up “If you’re done arguing let’s talk.”
Yang pointed to the cloud “Why is there a cloud inside?”
Tempest rolled her eyes “My friend Rainbow Dash must have decided to bring herself something comfy to sleep on.”
Ruby blinked “Can I sleep on a cloud too?”
Tempest frowned “No, where I come from some of us can sleep on clouds but I’m not one of them.”
Rainbow yawned as stretched her wings out and she turned around to see Tempest standing next to Ruby and Yang “Tempest who are those two?
Tempest frowned “I’m guessing they’re Taiyang’s kids as Qrow is their uncle.”
Rainbow blinked “How did you figure that out?”
Tempest grimaced “I pay attention to important details you know.”
Ruby smiled “Let’s go outside and play tag.”
Yang smiled as she ran outside afterwards with Rainbow following them, Tempest sighed as she took a deep breath “Rainbow is such a child.”
Tempest stood leaning on the wall as Rainbow poked Ruby “You’re it.”
Tempest grabbed a rock hitting Rainbow on the head as she took off her wings “Rainbow, you can’t use your wings Ruby and Yang don’t have them how is that fair?!”
Rainbow groaned as she landed “Fine, I’ll play fair.”
Tempest shook her head (She always behaves like a child.)
Yang grinned “Tag you’re it.” Rainbow growled as she chased the other two girls with Tempest shaking her head as she watched her friend as well as two others playing like little kids as she simply stood by the wall.
A couple of hours later, Qrow and Taiyang came out to see Rainbow chasing the two barely winded girls as she puffed “How do they have so much energy?”
Tempest rolled her eyes “You have put so much effort into traning your wings but your muscles aren’t as good in the running department.”
Rainbow grimaced as she tapped Tempest “You give it a go, I need to take a breather”
Tempest rotated her shoulder “I’ll show how it’s done pay attention.”
Ruby and Yang turned to see Tempest running behind them, Tempest ran past tapping Ruby on the side as she ran past, Yang burst into a run, Ruby blinked for a few seconds before realising what happened and chased after her sister.
Tempest ran back only to see Yang running at her (So Ruby caught up to her sis huh) Tempest didn’t stop as Yang swung at her, Rainbow’s jaw dropped as Tempest slid right under Yang’s arm to avoid Yang tagging her before resuming a run. Qrow, Taiyang and Rainbow’s jaw dropped Taiyang blinked “Where did you find her?”
Qrow frowned “I saw a massive flash of light in the sky, I headed to the area but no-one was there. Fortunately they left tracks, although there was only one set of tracks and they were covered well, I only found them because they were attacked.”
Taiyang shouted “Girls come over here, I need to discuss with Qrow what we are going to do with Tempest and Rainbow Dash here.”
Yang and Ruby begged “Please let them stay here with us?”
Taiyang frowned “I’m not sure that’s such a…”
Yang and Ruby pouted “Ppppppllllleeeeeaaaaasssssseeeee.”
Tempest frowned “I can keep Rainbow out of trouble don’t worry.”
Taiyang sighed “Fine but Qrow will begin teaching all four of you how defend yourselves.”
Qrow shrugged “I can do that.” The group went inside and a quick dinner before they all decided to get some rest, Taiyang of course was very confused at Tempest’s ability to sleep on the floor.
