Another Dimension Traveler - Volume 1 Chapter 129 129

(3rd POV)

3 days before Team RWBY, Leon and Neo’s departure. Back to Evernight Castle. Only Salem and Arthur are sitting near at the table.

Arthur: “My queen, Miss Fall has something to report to you.”

Salem: “What is it?”

Arthur: “My queen, Miss Fall has hack the CCTS tower at Beacon and discovers something very peculiar about those kids at the Vale Port.”

Salem: “What has she found?”

Arthur: “She gave me information about the kids. Especially, Leon Parker. While I was reading the report, there’s inconsistence between the report and the video that we’ve watch. In the report, the skills of these students are not eye catching and considered to be ordinary huntsmen and huntresses. But when we saw the video, they can use elemental attacks. We assume that those attacks are connected to their semblance but the report says otherwise.”

Salem: “Did they use dust to enhance their capabilities?”

Arthur: “I hypothesize the amount of dust that they have used but when I observe the videos, there’s no indication that they are using dust during their fight. I assume that there’s hidden dusts within their weapons and their body but the control of dusts are very precise and advance for these children to use.”

Salem: “Hmmmm.”

Salem contemplates.

Salem: ‘Did Ozma gave them magic? I don’t see why he had done that. Not to mention it would be a burden to him if he gave his magic to just one person. Let alone 6 individuals.’

Arthur waits for his queen to finish her contemplation. The queen notice Arthur who’s standing and waiting for her.

Salem: “Is there other reports would you like to add?”

Arthur: “Yes my queen. It’s about Leon Parker.”

Salem: “Go on.”

Arthur: “In his report, he got recommend personally by the head of Beacon Academy and works at bakery store in the past.”

Salem: “And this concern us why?”

Arthur: “That just it my queen. No past to where he comes from, no parents and no relatives in his report. I’ve search Leon Parker’s name in every combat schools but none so far. He has no past. It’s like he just appears out of nowhere.”

Salem: “Interesting.”

Salem stands up and walk towards the glass window. She then looks the wasteland through the window and the broken moon.

Salem: ‘The probability of these 6 children are using magic is pretty high. There’s also the possibility that there are more of them as well. It’s impossible for Ozpin to give these 6 children the ability to use magic. Then there’s this mysterious and powerful individual named Leon Parker. He’s a threat to our plans.’

Salem look at Arthur who’s still patiently waiting for her.

Salem: “Call Tyrian and Hazel. I have a task for them.”

(Leon POV)

Back to the train.

Torchwick: “Woah, where’s the rush? 5 against 1 is a little bit unfair don’t you think?”

Blake dash towards him and fight head on. Ruby tried to help but I stop her.

Leon: “No, she got this.”

Ruby look at me and looks back at Blake. The fight was intense. Blake fights Torchwick and he retaliates. He didn’t notice that Blake shadow move on its own and attach it to Torchwick shadow. He notice way too late and Blake’s shadow wraps around Torchwick’s body. He struggles to break free but can’t seem to get out.

Torchwick: “Still feisty I see. You think that your bow would hide your true you? Your past?”

Blake angers when he heard that. Blake was going to stab him but I grab her wrist and I stop her.

Leon: “Blake, don’t succ.u.mb to his bullsh*t.”

Blake stops and looks at me and seconds later, she sighs. Torchwick was about to say something again but Blake use her shadow to wrap it around Torchwick’s mouth.

Blake: “He’s right you know.”

Ruby: “About what?”

Blake: “I can’t escape my past. The things that I’ve done.”

I grab Blake’s shoulder.

Leon: “Blake. Everyone can make mistakes. We are not perfect, we’re not flawless and we are not sinless. You can’t run from your past but you can learn from it.”

Ruby: “You got us to be there, Blake. Don’t worry, you’re not alone anymore. We’re friends, aren’t we?”

Blake look at us all. Dr. Oobleck, Ruby, and me smiling at her and she smile back. Zwei bark and rubs his head to Blake’s leg. At first, Blake was afraid of Zwei but when she understands that Zwei is harmless. She picks him up and hugs him. She touch her bow and pulls it out. She reveals her cat ears to us. She’s now not afraid of being a faunus anymore. Torchwick roll his eyes but we ignored him. Blake look at him and then she kick him at the face. He then fall unconscious.

Leon: “We could interrogate him how to stop the train, you know.”

Blake: “He wouldn’t tell us.”

Then Neo, Weiss and Yang appear behind us.

Ruby: “Everyone is okay?”

Yang: “Yup.”

Weiss: “It was easy.”

Neo makes an okay hand gesture and smiles. I notice a dark red splatter on her legs. No one notice it because she wears black jeans. No one can notice it unless you have a good or enhance vision. I don’t see any injuries on her body. It must be Elise’s blood. Neo probably killed her. Well this is not her first time killing someone.

In the past, she killed a group of bandits during our traveling in the forest. We were just minding our own business and finding a good training spot for just the two of us. We discovered a cave and went inside. We accidentally uncover that it was hideout and bunch of bandits were trying to mug and kill us. When they look at Neo, they grin maliciously at her and lick their lips. We instantly knew what they were thinking of.

Neo smile and we killed them all. At first I was hesitating to kill and just capture them but when they look at Neo, I didn’t hesitate anymore and killed them all. I burn their bodies and took all their possessions. Neo didn’t hesitate to kill. She knew that this world is not safe for the weak. After killing those bandits, she broke down and cried. I hug her and calm her down. It’s not easy killing another human. She doesn’t have the gamer’s mind like I do. It took a while for her to stabilize her mind. She still can’t get used to killing someone but left with no choice, she won’t hesitate to end one’s life. Especially, when someone tries to harm her love ones.

Yang: “So anyone has an idea to stop the train?”

Leon: “I may have a suggestion.”

I told everyone my plan.

Weiss: “Would that even work?”

Leon: “Trust me. I can handle it.”

Oobleck: “You sure you can do this.”

Leon: “I’m 100 percent sure.”

Ruby: “Well, alright. If you sure, then go ahead.”

I nod and open the hatch above and went to the roof. I look down at them.

Leon: “I suggest to brace yourself.”

Everyone nods and Weiss makes a cocoon of ice, covering everyone. Including Torchwick who’s unconscious. I close the hatch and teleport myself 10 meters ahead of the train. I landed on the train track and saw the train quickly approaching me.
