12 Black Bird (1/2)

It's been almost a week since Magna and the twins left the ruins. Argo and Luna followed right behind Magna while playing a game with their tails. Suddenly, Magna came to an abrupt stop and caused the twins to b.u.mp into him.

Magna ignored the m.u.f.fled laughter coming from his back as he noticed something odd. Scrunching his brows, Magna slowly took a rock out from his pocket and tightly clutched it.

Argo and Luna immediately stopped laughing when they saw his actions and quietly prepared for fight. Over the week long travel, the girls have been through a lot of life or death fights with both animals and grimm.

Before either wolfgirl could ask what's wrong, a few tall figures wearing white masks appeared from the bushes.

Magna gave his surroundings a brief glance as he said, ”Who are you guys? What do you want?”

Instead of answering, the mask figures all rushed to attack them. Or more specifically, to attack Magna.

Without a word, the rock in Magna's hand instantly transformed into windmill shuriken. The sudden appearance of his weapon managed to stun the mask figures long enough for the girls to launch an attack.

Before anyone of them could recover, Argo slashed at the weapons with her semblance, turning them into sc.r.a.p while Luna use her semblance to encase their feet in snow.

No matter how many times he sees their semblances, he's always going to be impressed by how twin-like their semblances are. Exactly like her sister, Luna's eyes glowed in a dark blue while a dark blue aura coated her hands and feet.

Glaring at the person infront of him, Magna tore off his mask and said, ”Now tell me. Who

are you guys and why did you attack us.”

The person infront of him glared at Magna and tried to spit on his face. Luckily, Magna managed to dodge yet this didn't help calm down the anger that was growing inside. Ever since the fight against the Nevermore, Magna found out that his emotions seem more volatile than before.

Magna's eyes changed into a dark red as his pupil became a slit. He glared at the person in front of him only to be dumbfounded. The person in front of him had completely changed his tune as he politely bowed his head and said, ”I'm sorry brother. I thought you were a human and that's why I attacked you.”

”What do you…” Before he could finish, Argo pulled him to the side and whispered, ”Magna, these guys are apart of the White Fang. And they think your a faunus because of your eyes.”

Releasing a sigh, Magna whispered back, ”So what should we do with them?”

Both Argo and Luna shurruged, leaving Magna stumped. With a sigh, Magna asked Luna to free them. After a couple minutes, the one Magna demasked bowed and said, ”Again, I'm sorry for attacking you brother.”

Giving the man an awkward smile, Magna waved his hands and said, ”It's fine…”

Argo seemed wary of the faunus as she asked, ”Why are you guys out here?”

Her question brought a serious expression n all the faunus's faces as the leader, who happened to be the one Magna demasked, said, ”We're looking for kidnappers. There's a group of humans going around kidnapping faunus children.” Pausing, the man gave Magna and the twins a gentle smile and said, ”Would you kids like to join the White Fang? It's completely up to you whether you want to join or not. We won't force you.”

This took Magna by surprise yet it only took him a couple seconds to realize why the leader is giving him a choice. The current time line he's in is where the White Fang is still an organization that's fighting for equality for all instead of the criminal syndicate.

That means Blake, Yang and Weiss are likely 7 or 8 while Ruby is 5 or 6. Magna suddenly smiled as he bowed and said, ”Thank you for the offer but I'd like to decline.”

The leader only smile before he ruffled Magna's hair and said, ”It's okay kid. It's the adults responsibility to fight for a better future for the next generation anyway.”

He wore his mask before running further into the forest with the rest of his team following close behind.

Magna put his hands on his head as his smile seemed… odd. Back in his old life, Magna never had his head patted in fear of hurting him as he was fragile when young due to illness. He had to say… it felt really good and comforting to have his head patted gently like that.

The girls looked at each other and nodded before walking infront of Magna and softly ruffling his hair like what the leader did. Magna burst into laughter as he hugged the girls tightly and whispered, ”Thanks.”
