Silence in Atlas 5/?

Once more, this is a dark take on Volume 7 from a Bumbleby standpoint. It has scenes of graphic violence. If there are any specific trigger warnings I will indicate when that part starts and ends. I want to thank all the people who are reading this story and a special thanks to those who have written to me like @thunder-kate, @im-a-gay-capybara, @tehultimatefreakrobot and a couple of anons (hope I��m not forgetting anyone). The amazing @kusnilive illustrated Blake in the last chapter and it turned out INCREDIBLE, go check it out :D So, yeah, I’m happy, now to the chapter.

------------

“I’m sorry!” Yang said, her tone a little bit louder “I just couldn’t stand the way they were talking to you!”

“I told you this was going to happen” Blake replied, exasperated. “I do not engage them. I don’t want to get in trouble and I don’t want to prove them right”

“Right about what?”

“About faunus, Yang!” she yelled. A couple of people turned around to look at them.

“I get it, Blake” the blonde replied, her voice adopting a somehow harsh tone “But you weren't the one engaging them. I was!”

“It is the same thing. You are being caught in their game”. She stopped walking. Took a deep breath and then talked again. “I do not expect you to understand how it feels to be a faunus so just let me handle it”

“But I’m here!” Yang said. She wanted to understand. She wanted Blake to really open up about how she was feeling. They were finally able to be there for each other and somehow it seemed they still had things to settle. The truth was they hadn’t really talked about their feelings after their fight with Adam. There was something about Atlas that made Blake close up again.

“I’m going back to the house” Blake said, turning around “You coming?”

“I think I need to get some more fresh air” Yang replied. She could feel the anger pooling inside and she didn’t want to take that “home”.

“Oh, ok” the faunus replied, a little bit sad “See you there”

“Sure”

The sound of her own voice echoed in the darkness. Those were the last words she had said to Blake before she was taken. She had asked her to go with her and she had said no.

From the shadows she could see a silhouette. She walked towards it.

“Yang” it was Blake’s voice. “Yang”

“Blake?” she replied “Blake where are you?”

“Yang!” this time it sounded like a cry for help. “Yang!” her voice cracked. It seemed like she was crying.

“BLAKE!” the blonde yelled at the top of her lungs, running at full speed towards the silhouette. When she was finally close enough to confirm it was Blake her whole body froze. The faunus was still calling her.

“YANG!” each time harder, each time more desperate. Blake fell to her knees and a different figure appeared behind her. It was Adam.

“I still don’t know what she sees in you” he said. Yang wanted to say something back but she couldn’t, her body still frozen. Adam raised his sword and without hesitation plunged it through Blake’s back. She looked up, her eyes wide open and blood coming out of her mouth.

Yang woke up covered in cold sweat, a scream leaving her lungs. She was shivering. When had she fallen asleep? She was sitting on the couch, looking out the window in the same place she had spent every minute she wasn’t out getting information.

“Yang? What happened?” Ruby ran out of her room, the rest of the team appeared to still be asleep. Her sister didn’t answer so the teen walked towards her. “Sis?”

“Why didn’t I walk with her back to the house?” she asked.

“Yang, we’ve already talked about this. You couldn’t have known this was going to happen”. Ruby sat next to Yang and tenderly placed a hand on her knee.

“I could have stopped it… I can’t stop thinking about her. What is she going through?” She clung to her sister as the tears started to leave her eyes. The pain in her chest was so intense she could barely breathe. The image of Blake desperately calling for her was burnt into her mind. It took about a minute before any of them could talk again.

“We are going to find her” Ruby replied. “I’ll come with you next time. We can tell Weiss and…”

“No” Yang said, breaking the hug. She took a deep breath. “It's better if I go alone. It's easier to hide. If they are as organized as Ironwood said then they probably have their whole base or whatever with strict vigilance ”

“I get it but… Let’s have Ironwood be ready to with some troops once you get her out. We’ll wait with him” Yang nodded, approving of her sister’s plan.

“What time is it?” the blonde asked, standing up and rubbing her eyes with her hands.

“It’s 3 am.” Weiss said, entering the living room with a concerned look. “How are you holding up?”

“At least I have a plan” Yang answered. “I just hope she’s still with the Traders once I get there. That’s if they haven’t…” She knew what she wanted to say. If they haven’t sold her yet. But the words hurt her throat and she couldn’t bring herself to let them out. Ruby and Weiss both understood what she meant.

“Let’s not think about that scenario yet” the white haired girl said. Yang nodded. She understood where Weiss was coming from but, being honest, that scenario was the only thing she could think about.

-----------------

Blake didn’t know if she had fallen asleep or fainted but she woke up to the sound of the door opening. She had stayed up trying to scratch a message in the floor of the room in case Yang was able to track her down to that place. She had used her chains to do it and it had had seriously damaged her wrists. The faunus hid the message under a broken carboard box, hoping the man would not notice it. When he came in, her body tensed up. Click. Nothing. He was carrying a bucket and a dirty rag.

“Hello, kitten” he said, throwing both of the things he was carrying in front of her. “We are leaving in about an hour so and I need you to look decent enough. Use this and wash up” Blake sat up and looked him in the eyes for a second. Click. Nothing. She looked down, held the rag and dipped it in the water. She started cleaning herself slowly.

Blake hadn’t really taken the time to examine her own body since she had been taken so she was actually surprised at her own injuries. There were scratches and scabs all over her and, under the shackles in her wrists and ankles, her skin was raw. Some areas were very sensible to the touch. Still, what shocked her the most were the traces of blood coming from between her legs. Cleaning them up brought back so many images to her head.

“Sorry if I was too rough, kitten” he said with a laugh. “You want to attack me so bad right now don’t you?”

“No” she mouthed as she held herself tightly and closed her eyes.

“It’s okay” he said “I’ll this one slide”

“Thank you” she mouthed before even realizing what she was doing. How broken was she to thank him for anything?”

“Put this on” the man ordered, handing her a black shirt and pants. Both of them looked pretty worn out. Blake froze for a second. Was he going to stay there while she changed? For a split second she thought about attacking him. He was so close. Maybe she could get the clicker and be done with this. She could escape and…

“Oh, such nice thoughts you are having, bitch. And to think I just gave you a free pass”

Click. Click. Click.

She fell to the ground, screaming in silence. When it was over she wondered how she was even still alive?

“So now… Put those clothes on”. This time Blake did as she was told. Her eyes never left the floor. She didn’t want to see how the man stared at her body. She changed as fast as it was possible.

“Okey, now we can go” he said, holding her chains and pulling her forward. Blake stood up next to him. That’s when she saw he was holding a piece of cloth. He used it to blindfold her.

Blake followed the man in the darkness, trying not to think of ways of attacking him and running away. They walked through what seemed like and endless hallway. She heard voices. What kind of place was this?

“Hey, Aleph!” a voice called from her right. It was another man. He seemed young. Apparently her torturer’s name was Aleph. It seemed too human a name to belong to such a demon.

“What, Slayter?” the man… Aleph said.

“We are leaving, man” the new voice replied. “Hurry!”

“And who do you think you are to be talking to me like that?”

“I’m sorry, Aleph. Zabina sent me and I…”

“Yeah, yeah, whatever… So, what do you think, boy?” Aleph asked and Blake knew immediately he was talking about her.

“Very nice product” the youngster said. “You have a thing for cat faunus don’t you?”

“Indeed” he laughed and pulled on her chain. Blake fell to the floor. “And she has behaved very well” he patted her on the head like she was a pet. Blake tried going to her safe place. Think of Yang. Think of Yang. She repeated the mantra in her head once and again.

“I’d ask you if you would lend her to me for a round” Slayter said and Blake wanted to throw up. “But we are leaving so let’s go”.

“Lead the way, boy”

Think of Yang.

Think of...

“Here’s where we part ways, kitten” Aleph’s voice brought her back to reality. She was outside. She could feel air against her skin and it almost hurt. It was night, or so it seemed through the cloth in her eyes. “Behave your best with your new owners. I hope you remember our time together fondly” Click. Nothing. Suddenly she felt Aleph’s breath on one or her cat ears. “And don’t forget: wherever you go, I will always be there”

Blake felt her body freezing with fear. What was that even supposed to mean? She felt her chains were take by someone else. This was a woman. Somehow it seemed outrageous. How could a woman condone what had been done to her?

“Climb up” she said, Blake didn’t understand what she meant. “There’s a truck in front of you. Step up”. The faunus did as she was told and felt how she was dragged into a vehicle. Click. Nothing.

“I have a clicker” a voice called from what Blake believed was the driver’s seat. “And it will shock all of you at the same time. So don’t try anything funny and those of you who can talk, don’t.”

Blake could feel herself descending into the darkest realms of her own mind. She was never going to be able to escape. There was no way she was going to risk electrocuting all the other faunus in that fucking truck. She just hoped Yang could track her down and somehow read her message. The faunus next to her started to cry and Blake felt a knot in her throat. He sounded like a child.
