Chapitre 14: [Arc 1]Chapter 13
Arno F. Fabian's POV
Well, shit.
She took both me and Little Red Riding Hood to the station's interrogation room.
"So, what's your name?", I asked the young girl who seemed younger than I was to break the awkwardness of the situation.
"I'm Ruby Rose! Ohyeahwhatwasthatswordyouthrew?! (Oh yeah what was that sword you threw?!)", She answered and questioned me.enegetically.
Seeing this I had one thought.
'Is she high?'
I ignored her question and then introduced myself.
"Nice to meet you too.", I spoke somewhat sarcastically "Anyway, my name's Arno F. Fabian." while also forgetting to add 'Or you could call me Arno F. Fabian-Sapphire, owner of a bigass company.'
"You didn't--", She was going to bring the obvious into plain sight, however luckily the door opened.

Sadly, ten minutes later I think that the young girl - Ruby Rose - would've been a better choice in terms of conversation. I could already feel my eyes turn dead as I look into thin air.
"I hope you realise that your actions today won't be taken lightly, you two.", She lectured even more "You put yourselves and others in great danger."
"They started it!", Ruby pointed out towards the green eyed woman while I responded with "No, I didn't."
She gave me a death stare when she heard what I said.
"I made proper calculations on where to explode them, so no one gets caught up in the crossfire.", I explained while also forgetting to add on 'But I didn't know the magnitude of the actual fire itself.'
She replied with whipping my hand with her whip. Fucking bitch.
"Eek!", Ruby squeaked when she saw this.
"If it were up to me, you would both be sent home with a pat on the back...", She paused slightly to let Ruby's hopes rise "And a slap on the wrist!", She whipped near Ruby's hands.
"Mhm~", Ruby let out noises as she was trying to hold her tears in.
'Kinda looks cute, but eh.', I thought absentmindedly.
"But there is someone here who would like to meet you two.", She stated when a certain youthful old man entered *cough* *cough* Ozpin *cough* *cough*.
"Ruby Rose.", He leaned towards her face "You... have silver eyes."
"Uh, umm...", Ruby's face turned slightly confused.
The resemblance from my meeting and her meeting was uncanny, hence I needed to get this off my chest.
"Ozpin, do you have a fetish for silver eyes or something?", When I asked this question the atmosphere turned awkward and to break this awkwardness I stated "Never mind."
'I'll get my answers one day, though.'
"Ahem.", Ozpin took a sip from his coffee mug and cleared his throat "So, where did you learn to do this?"
Ozpin took out a scroll which replayed Ruby fighting the mafia-ass looking guys.
'Wait, you were recording?', I voiced out inwardly, however then I remembered that I hadn't told Ardis to deactivate any cameras nearby hence I ditched the thought.
"S-signal Academy..?", She answered as if she herself wasn't sure which means it wasn't a total lie.
"They taught you to use one of the most dangerous weapons, ever designed?", He questioned the girl while I remained silent.
'Technically speaking, every weapon is dangerous however the terms of lethality depends on the skill of the user. So, I argue that statement.', I inwardly frowned.
"W-well one teacher in particular.", She responded nervously as Ozpin proceeded to place down a plate of cookies.
"Don't mind if I do.", I casually stated as I went over to grab a cookie, however Ruby tried to slap away my hand - which I obviously maneuvered around - and failed whist I took my goddamn cookie.
"KISHA~", She hissed at me as if she was a cat.
'Are you a cat?', I questioned inwardly while I began to eat my cookie.
Through the corner of my eye, I saw Ruby, eat the fucking cookies in less than two seconds.
"The fuck?", Is all I could voice out blankly.
"Language, Mr. Fabian.", Ozpin warned me as he continued "It's just that I've seen one other scythe-wielder with that level of skill before."
'He's implying something.', Which seemed obvious.
"A dusty old crow...", When he said this Ruby's eyes practically sparkled.
"Oh, that's my uncle!", You know if I didn't voice out my stupor, I think she would be mannerless enough to speak while eating.
"My uncle, Qrow! He's a teacher at Signal, I was complete garbage before he took me under his wing.", She seemed to like this topic a lot as she started to do overdramatic gestures "And now, I'm all like--- HOOOWAAAH! WITCHAAA!"
'Admittedly, this is pretty cute.', I thought while unconsciously patting her hair.
When I noticed what I was doing, I realised that her face was red and there was another awkward silence. Thankfully though, Ozpin broke it.
"So, I've noticed.", He places his cup on the table as he leans in and sits on the opposite of Ruby.
"And what is an adorable girl - such as yourself - doing at a school designed to train warriors.", The way that Ozpin phrased this made me instinctively want to call the FBI, but only for me to realise they have no FBI in this world.
'Fuck.', I couldn't help but grimace.
"Well, I want to be a Huntress.", I couldn't have guessed... Psst sarcasm...
Afterall, that's literally one of the few jobs that have to do with combat and is popular.
"You want to slay monsters?", Ozpin inquired.
"Yeah... I only have two more years left at Signal and then I'm going to apply at beacon.", She continued on "Y'see my sister's starting there this year, and she's trying to become a Huntress, and I'm trying to become Huntress 'cause I wanna help people. And my parents always taught us to help others, so I thought, 'Hey! I might as well make a career out of it.'", She then giggled and continued onwards "I mean the police are alright, but Huntsmen and Huntresses are just so much more romantic, exciting and cool... and... and... just AAH! Y-you know?!"
Seeing this, I was having trouble on deciding whether I should actually attend this school or not. Seems more like a brainwashing facility to me.
"Do you know who I am?", He asked her.
"Your Professor Ozpin, your the Headmaster at Beacon.", She responded.
"Hello.", He greeted.
"Nice to meet you.", She greeted back.
"You want to come to my school?", He questioned.
"More than anything.", She replied.
He exchanged glances with the blonde to which she look away while making a sound of dissatisfaction. Fucking bitch.
'Why do I hate her so much?', She just reminds me of someone...
"Well, okay.", Ozpin allowed her and then turned to me "And you?"
"You already know the answer, pal.", I responded.
"Well, then Ms. Rose you may leave.", Ruby began to leave and as she held the handle to the door, she waved.
"See ya, Red.", I waved back.

The door closed and then me and Ozpin decided to have our chat, as a cup of hot chocolate was placed in front of me.
"So, I see you have an eyepatch.", He stated.
"Meh, mostly for cosmetic purposes.", I stated while also silently adding on 'And not looking like I got possessed by a demon.'
"So, I see you were busy.", When Ozpin stated this I immediately knew what he meant.
"Well, what can I say? Some assholes refused to sell me dust, so out of spite I decided to create a technological company which doesn't rely on dust to lessen their sales.", I grinned slightly "And then guess what? The asshole who owns said dust company tried to sell his youngest daughter - the heiress - to me in hopes to strengthen the bond between companies. It was as if he thought we were back in the middle-ages, where people actually cared about nobility and sold their daughters for more power."
I chuckled even further.
"You should've seen his face when I sent a message saying 'Go fuck yourself and your mother, oh wait she dead you can't' and some other obscene messages. He underestimates me a little too much because of my age, it's funny that he also hired some weakass assassins too with embarrassing nicknames.", I chuckled "Like bro, what kind of nickname is 'Unending Agony', 'Night Watcher', 'Second Strike'? It's like they got a middleschooler and doused the kid with chuunibyou."
After I finished venting some of my stress I finally calmed down.
"So, what is it that you want?", I asked because it was kinda obvious he wanted something.
"I want you to improve our defenses."
