Firen Lhain: Chapter 806: Clear the Air: Part I / III

Ciel Soleil stood in front of General Ironwood's desk and saluted. Ironwood returned her salute. "At ease." he stated, and she stood at the parade position At-Ease. "First off all, this meeting is classified as Top Secret. You are not to share anything covered in this meeting with anyone other than myself, Specialist Winter Schnee, Doctor Pietro Polendina, Team RWBY, the remnants of Team JNPR, Professors Qrow Branwen and Taiyang Xiao Long. Is that understood?"

"Understood!" Ciel loudly affirmed.

"Second," General said, softer this time, "while I appreciate you are on track to become an Atlas Special Operations Command Operative, you are not yet part of the military. This is not a comment on your abilities, as you have proven quite loyal and exceptional."

"Yes, Sir!" Ciel loudly affirmed.

"My point being that any requests I make of you here are not orders, but requests, and you will have the full right to refuse without penalty. If you refuse, you will head right back to the track you were on."

"Understood, Sir." Ciel stated, "I do not see why I would refuse your request, Sir."

Ironwood breathed in deep before continuing. "Penny Polendina was the first robots capable of using Aura." He paused, and while Ciel seemed shocked, she was doing her best to hide it. "This is why you were selected to aid her, as we were not sure how well she could socialize. But, it turns out it was surprisingly well. At least if she met the right people. Now, PENNY's frame has been rebuilt, and the new unit refers to herself as Penthesilea. Her first act was to return to her friends, in a classified location. All communication with this location, and movement to and from are classified on the same lines as this meeting, understood?"

"Understood, Sir." Ciel.

"My request, and remember it is a request, not an order or a demand, is to proceed to this location and aid Penthesilea as much as you can. Reminder that is a request, and that refusal will in no way affect your path to becoming an Atlas Specialist."

"I am honoured, Sir." Ciel replied. "If I follow this request, how will my studies be affected?"

"You are already near graduation." Ironwood stated, "Professor Xiao Long is at the location, and Team RWBY and Team JNR are certified huntsmen. If you fulfill my request, I will take this as fulfilling all remaining graduation requirements. You will graduate with your current grade, which, I must say, is one of the best in the academy. You will, however, not receive any additional public honours for fulfilling this request, as it is secret."

"I would have your respect, Sir." Ciel stated, and Ironwood developed a weak smile, leaning forward.

"You would."

Ciel then stood to attention and saluted, "Then I accept, Sir."

"Thank you." Ironwood stated, "Prepare your things to depart for an unknown duration."

"Yes, Sir." Ciel stated, and saluted, and Ironwood returned her salute.

* * *

Winter Schnee walked into General Ironwood's office. She saluted and he returned the salute. "At-ease." he stated, and she stood At-Ease. "I would like to thank you for your prompt report."

"Of course, Sir."

"From now on, all communication, or reference to that location will remain classified at the highest level."

"Of course, Sir."

Ironwood then let out a smile, "And you still have leave to finish."

"But, Sir?" she asked.

"The investigation is still undergoing for your previous assignment. Once it's complete, I will need you to lead the assault. Until then, you are still on leave, and I recommend you spend time with your sister. At the very least, you can be there if something else happens."

"Yes... sir." she said.

"If you are returning there, I would ask you to take Ciel Soleil along with you."

"Yes, Sir." she eagerly replied.

* * *

Winter sat in the pilot seat with Ciel beside her. "So?" Winter asked her, "You are on tract to becoming a Specialist?"

"Yes." Ciel succinctly but eagerly replied.

"From what I understand?" Winter asked, "Your grades have been exemplary, and have been approached by General Ironwood before for assignments."

"Indeed." Ciel stated. "Though at the time I did not understand the full scope of what was being expected of me. I do hope I had not disappointed the general."

Winter let out a momentary smile followed by a quick, light blue flush that she was quickly able to quash. "General Ironwood is incredibly rational." Winter stated, "He will take everything into account, and the simple fact is that if he was disappointed, he would not have given you your assignment."

"Request." Ciel simply stated.

"Pardon?" Winter asked.

"General Ironwood repeatedly referred to it as a request, and explicitly stated my entry into the Atlas Special Operations Command Unit would not be affected. Ciel looked over to find Winter in the middle of a light blue flush that she once again quickly quashed. "Specialist?" Ciel asked.

"Sorry, just impressed by the General's acumen."

"Of course." Ciel stated.

* * *

Aurora walked up to the bed that Jaune was laying with, with Ruby and Blake by his sides. "Sir?" she asked.

"And I'm still a Sir." Jaune grumbled, "Yes, Aurora?"

"I have family news." she stated.

"Then?" Jaune asked, "If our in-laws don't mind watching the prisoner, let's get everyone together."

"Are you sure you're up for it? Blake asked.

"It's not like I have anywhere else to be." Jaune grumbled.

* * *

"Friend-Jaune?" Penthesilea asked, "Oh, Friend-Ruby, is it your turn to cuddle Friend-Jaune?"

"Yep." Ruby stated, "And if Jaune's staying in bed for the meeting, so am I."

"Will Friend-Jaune be?.." Penthesilea asked.

"He's staying." Blake stated, "I'm not giving up my bed warmer."

"Plus," Ruby added, "I'm pretty sure he still should stay in bed."

"There is that." Blake said with playfulness.

"Pen?" Jaune asked.

"Oh, yes, Friend-Jaune, we have all collected."

Jaune grumbled as he pulled himself up to the sitting, and the and sheet slid off of them. He pulled it up as Ruby and Blake sat up and snuggled into him. "So, what's up? I mean, report? Report."

"Yes, Sir." Aurora said with a bright smile. "For first item, radar can reasonably purchased for around $2,000 Lien. I have a shortlist of reputable suppliers and models."

"Uh-huh?" Jaune asked, "You pick." Aurora just stared at him with a blank expression of her tree-frog coloured face. Jaune looked between the others, with everyone deferring to him. He then looked back to Aurora, "I would trust you choice a lot more than mine."

"Oh, yeah, definitely." Ruby stated.

"Your acumen is excellent." Weiss stated.

"Unless Pen knows anything about it." Ruby stated.

"I am afraid that my and PENNY's collective runtime is currently under two years."

"Wait, what?" Yang asked.

"I was created to be Father's daughter." Penthesilea stated.

"But?" Ruby asked, and pushed the blanket away to make robotic movements, "Beep-bop-boop."

"I am not the one who designed my hardware." Penthesilea stated, "Nor did PENNY fully understand the full operation of her hardware."

"They're different?" Nora asked. "I mean, Penthesilea LOOKS different from Penny, but?.."

"My current frame was designed to reconfigure as the demands of combat change." Penthesilea stated.

"And, perchance, what exactly does that mean?" Weiss asked.

Well, for one." Penthesilea stated, and the wings reappeared, "I can have wings, gravitic and reaction-thrusters in my feet." she said, as the jets in her feet lit up, pushing her in to the air, "and I can summon weapons as I please." she stated, and he spear and shield appeared. They all disapperaed and she quickly dropped to the ground, not seeming to react to he impact.

"Please don't break our house?" Blake asked, causing Yang to snicker.

"Anyways?" Jaune asked.

"For the second, unfortunately it seems you can only have one llama with a herd, and they do not cooperate with guard dogs."

"WHAT?!" Nora asked.

"I did say unfortunately." Aurora replied.

"So?" Weiss asked, "We have to pick between guard dogs and a guard llama."

"It seems," Aurora continued, and everyone turned to her, "that if llamas lack a herd of their own, they will form one with whatever is white and fluffy around them."

"Sheep!" Ruby exclaimed.

"Indeed, Ms. Rose." Aurora stated.

"Wait?" Ruby asked, "Jaune gets Sir, but I get Ms.?"

"My mistress is also my mistress." Aurora simply stated.

"And wouldn't it be Misses Rose?" Yang asked, "I kind of want to be a Misses."

"If she was a Misses," Aurora replied, "It would be Misses Arc, and that would lead to extensive confusion."

"You could just call us by our names." Jaune stated.

"The effrontery?" Aurora asked.

"I think she likes being beneath us." Blake stated, and Yang started to snicker, but when she looked at Blake, Blake was giving her a more serious look.

"Wait, you're serious?" Yang asked.

"She did kind of tell us the thing." Ruby stated.

"For the record?" Aurora asked, and everyone looked at her, "I did."

"Isn't the equivalent?" Ren asked, "Madame?"

"It is." Weiss stated. "Following everyone's concerns, Aurora can refer to as Madame and then our given names."

"I guess that kind of puts a peg in it." Yang stated, "I kind of forgot what we were talking about. Wasn't it llamas, or something?"

"Super guard llamas!" Ruby exclaimed.

"We can't guarantee we'll get one with Aura, Darling." Weiss said to her.

"Llamas are surprsingly intelligent." Aurora stated, "If they trained with Aura users, they have been known to pick up Aura."

"Like Zwei, that adorable thing?" Weiss asked.

"SWEET!" Nora exclaimed.

"They do live for up to 30 years in captivity, giving individual guard llamas a a productive life of over 20 years, dramatically increasing the chances of it learning to use Aura."

"I think that settles it." Blake stated, and everyone looked at her, "It seems we would all like to see a guard llama."

"SSWWEEEETT!" Nora exclaimed. "Can I wrestle with it?"

"Yeah?" Jaune asked, "Just make sure you don't go overboard." He then turned to Ren.

"Of course." he said in reply.

Just Say You Won’t Let Go (one-shot)

Synopsys: It’s Tony’s and Pepper’s wedding, which means everyone is there to celebrate. But one certain super soldier can’t seem to not feel out of place. (supposed to be set after Infinity War, Nat’s hair is back to red and all my babies are safe and sound cause fuck you, Marvel, that’s why)

Pairing: Bucky x Reader

Genre: pure teeth rotting fluff

Warnings: like one curse word

Word count: 2400

Y/N’s heels clicked as she made her way up the stairs and through the hallway. The team, all of them, were in Hawaii to celebrate Tony’s and Pepper’s wedding. The ceremony had just ended and now the reception, as well as the party, would start, but the young woman was on a solo mission right now- to find where Bucky had hidden away. Right after their vows to which even Natasha, who never cried about anything, shed tears, Bucky had slipped from where he had sat by Y/N and disappeared somewhere. Their rooms were right next to one another so the Avenger quickly slipped in her own and left her coat and bag there, locking it behind her. She was just about to walk out of the ginormous space when her eyes caught the sight of the doors right of the massive oak wardrobe. Those led directly to Bucky’s room. So she sauntered there and knocked. “Buck, you in there?” When there was no response she opened both doors and made her way inside his bedroom. Everything was neat and clean, the bed made and the mini fridge fully stocked. Unlike Y/N’s own. The second her feet entered her place she raided the fridge and made herself a blanket fort. Stark was covering everything, so why not enjoy the little gifts of life. And when she had to go to Pepper’s room so the girls could all get ready together, it was like a hurricane swept through the gorgeous place.

Y/N walked further inside and looked around for any sign of where Bucky could be. The window was open, but not the balcony and you couldn’t see anyone sitting there. She huffed and peeked inside the bathroom, but again with no luck. The girl was just about to leave when a certain book caught her eye. Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman. Y/N snorted. As a joke, she had suggested Bucky gets to know who Thor and Loki are by reading the retellings of the old legends. She didn’t think he’d actually do it. “Hey, doll.” Bucky’s voice startled her and made her drop the book. “Don’t you ever do that to me again, Barnes,” she laughed and placed the book back on the nightstand. “You know how I hate it when you go stealth mode.” “Sorry,” he chuckled and placed a strand of brown hair behind his ear which Y/N found adorable. “But to be fair I wasn’t expecting any visitors.” “I was just wondering where you left, after the vows. You sorta, I dunno, fled.” “I- umm-“ the statement seemed to make him uncomfortable as if she had hit the nail on the head. “You know me, I don’t like big parties.” “This is Tony’s and Pepper’s wedding. And the only thing big about this is the mansion. There’s barely a hundred people here, less than that.” He was looking around the room and avoiding eye contact. “Bucky,” Y/N went to stand right in front of him and pulled his chin down with her fingers so he had nothing to do but avert his gaze and look into her Y/E/C eyes. “What is actually wrong?” His ice blue eyes held her own with a piercing quality. It was like nothing else in the world existed but the beautiful cerulean pools. “Me being here. That is the problem.” Y/N shook her head, snapping out of the moment. “I’m sorry, what?” He sighed. “I shouldn’t be here. I shouldn’t be witnessing their special day. I shouldn’t be ruining it.” “But… but you’re not. If they didn’t want you here, they wouldn’t have invited you.” “Y/N,” he grasped her palms and bent down a bit as if explaining things to a small child, “I killed Tony’s parents. Who in their right mind would want their murderer to attend their wedding?” “Bucky,” Y/N cupped his cheek. The stubble had been shaven clean off, but she could feel the little hairs making their way on top again, “it wasn’t your fault. Tony himself said it. Yes, it took some time and if I had been in his place, it probably would have taken me time as well. You can never be prepared for something like that. But it’s in the past now. He wants his family to be there for him. To celebrate with him. To finally have a good moment in between all this fuckery and chaos.” “But that is the thing, he wants his family, not me.” “You are his family, whether you like it or not. We are incredibly dysfunctional, but we are a family. You included.” Bucky dropped his gaze, his cheek leaning into her touch. “Buck, please, come downstairs with me. You know they’re gonna miss you,” she gently slid her thumb over his cheek, “I’m gonna miss you.” That pulled a small smile out of Bucky. Yet he removed her hands from where one had settled on his chest and cheek and stood back. “I think I’m just gonna stay here. Read a bit. Enjoy the sunset.” With a sorrowful gaze, Y/N watched as he took the book and opened up the balcony to go and sit outside in the warm evening weather. “Is there anything I can say to change your mind?” Bucky sat down and looked out at the ocean where the waves calmly lapped at the shore. “Not this time, doll.” And he didn’t turn back to look at her. For a minute Y/N just stood there, looking at the man and his hunched over shoulders. It hurt her to see Bucky like this, especially on such a day, on such a sweet and amazing, love filled occasion. He didn’t see how much people cared about him, hell Tony included, he couldn’t comprehend that other people apart from Steve wanted him to be happy and find love. Most of all it hurt Y/N because she herself loved Bucky yet he seemed to have closed off from every possibility of ever looking for someone to share his life with. And if that was the case, Y/N would accept it, yet it didn’t make her heart ache any less. With a defeated sigh she turned and exited Bucky’s room. Making her way down the marble steps she weaved her way towards the garden and where the reception was happening. When she found her assigned seat there was an empty one right next to her and she knew that it would not be filled. “Where is Bucky?” Nat whispered to her as Happy was making his best-man speech. She didn’t want to lie, and you couldn’t really lie to Natasha, but she’d get the message. “He wasn’t feeling that well.” The redhead raised one perfectly shaped eyebrow but didn’t push further. Conversations flew all around the room, laughter echoing across the now lantern-lit space. Y/N turned her gaze to her right where Tony and Pepper were talking with Clint and Laura. They looked so in love. He couldn’t keep his hands off her for one second. Whether it was a gentle finger that slid up and down Pepper’s arm or fiddling with her wedding ring, whether it was simply gazing at the woman like there was nothing more important than her or resting his cheek against her shoulder, undeniably, he loved her. Y/N smiled at the pair. They had been through so much, too much even. All of them, so a day dedicated to the pair celebrating their love was what the team and their friends needed. The garden erupted in music as their first dance as a married couple was announced. Tony grasped Pepper’s palm and led her to the middle of the floor. In an instant, his arms wove around her waist and hers around his neck. Their foreheads pressed together and anyone could see that they were lost to only but one another.

I met you in the dark You lit me up You made me feel as though I was enough We danced the night away We drank too much I held your hair back when You were throwing up

Then you smiled over your shoulder For a minute I was stone-cold sober I pulled you closer to my chest And you asked me to stay over I said, I already told you I think that you should get some rest

Y/N gently swayed in her seat to the music. That is until she felt a tap against her skin. “And why is it that the most beautiful girl here isn’t dancing?” She turned around to see Bucky, a small smile accompanying his features. “She was waiting for the right partner to ask her.” “I’m sorry to hear that he didn’t do it earlier and has made you wait.” “It’s alright,” she smiled up at Bucky, “as long as he makes me dance the night away.” His smile grew wider. “May I?” He had extended his palm and was waiting for Y/N to accept it. Slowly she slid her smaller one until he could grasp his fingers around her hand. “Lead the way.” Together they vanished between the twirling and swaying couples. At the centre of it, all was the bride and groom, of course, but Y/N could glimpse Natasha and Steve slowly waltzing across the room, Peter’s Aunt May and Banner were lightly moving to the music as was Clint and his wife. So many more occupied the dance floor including Gamora and Quill, Thor, Loki and even Korg. But Y/N’s attention was fully trained on the man holding her waist and moving them to the rhythm of the music.

I knew I loved you then But you'd never know 'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go I knew I needed you But I never showed But I wanna stay with you Until we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go

I wake you up with some Breakfast in bed I'll bring you coffee With a kiss on your head And I'll take the kids to school Wave them goodbye And I'll thank my lucky stars For that night

Y/N let her head lean against his chest as she listened to his heartbeat. “I’m sorry,” he muttered into her hair. “For what?” It was no louder than a whisper, as if afraid to burst the magical bubble. Like any louder sound would make them return to the blood and sweat of their daily life. “For not believing you when you said we are a family. Not thinking that people would actually miss me.” The girl looked up at Bucky and let her fingers weave through his hair, softly scratching the nape of his neck. “ ’S okay. You’re here now and that is all that matters.”

When you looked over your shoulder For a minute I forget that I'm older I wanna dance with you right now, oh And you look as beautiful as ever And I swear that every day you get better You make me feel this way somehow

I'm so in love with you And I hope you know Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold We've come so far, my dear Look how we've grown And I wanna stay with you Until we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go

She gently sang along to the lyrics as the music faded away and she could focus on nothing but the way Bucky was looking at her. “Y/N?” She was breathless from the intensity of his eyes. “Yeah?”

I wanna live with you Even when we're ghosts

“I really want to kiss you…” She couldn’t fully comprehend what he was saying what he wanted to do. Y/N’s brain had fuzzed over, and she could only see how his eyes flicked down to her lips.

'Cause you were always there for me When I needed you most

“Then kiss me,” she finally managed to get out. And so he did. Slowly tentatively he pressed his lips against hers and it was like they melted. Bucky pulled her body closer to his, wanting to feel every curve and dip, wanting to have more of her, needed it.

I'm gonna love you 'til My lungs give out I promise 'til death we part Like in our vows

Y/N’s head was spinning as she pushed a hand through his hair to grab a fist full of it to pull his face closer. If that was possible. Her other one caressed his cheek and jaw. Reluctantly they pulled back as the need for air became more and more pressing. “Wow,” there was a giant smile on Bucky’s face and it made Y/N chuckle. “What?” “I just-“ he places a stand of Y/H/C hair behind her ear letting his palm linger there, “didn’t think you’d actually kiss me back. That you’d feel the same.”

So I wrote this song for you Now everybody knows That it's just you and me Until we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go

She smiled. “Maybe I didn’t. Maybe it was just a reflex.” Bucky pressed their foreheads together. “Was it now?” “Mhm,” she nodded, making his head move with hers. “But there is a way to find out.” “And how could we do that?” his fingers dug a bit deeper into her sides and pressed her closer. “You’ll just have to kiss me again to figure it out.” And with a huge grin still plastered across his face, he did.

Pepper and Tony had watched them since the second Bucky had made his appearance at the garden and pulled Y/N to the dance floor. “Finally he did it,” the man chuckled and felt Pepper lean her cheek against his. “If he hurts her, I’m gonna kill him,” she smiled and let her eyes wander over the happy newly formed couple. “Isn’t that my kind of line?” Pepper looked at who now was her husband and couldn’t help but let herself be in the moment, to get lost in his dark chocolate eyes and find peace. “We’ll do it together okay?” she went for a compromise and Tony laughed at it. “As we’ll do everything.” The music faded away and nothing but love remained.

Just say you won't let go Oh, just say you won't let go
