Chapter 5: The Sea Cat's Meow Home

A passenger ship was sailing across the ocean, as Blake watched the ocean water. Her bow on her head covering her ears, until she took it off and held it in her hand looking down at it. However, there were two people who had sneaked onto the ship. Without knowing, or without Blake knowing as well.

"Good bye old me...hello new me." Blake said with a sighs as she lets the bow go as it falls into the ocean. "I should go see if there's anything to do..." She turned her back to the ocean not noticing the scales that had risen up from the water.

The figure watched Blake for a moment as they were not aware of the other figure that was on the ship. Blake had headed to her room on the ship to see if she needed to polish up her Gambol Shroud, looking at her reflection in her Gambol Shroud. Blake clinched it tightly until the passenger ship shook.

"What was that?" Blake asked herself as she hurried up, once she had gotten to the upper deck of the ship she saw a Grimm.

A Sea Feilong had risen from the ocean below as it wrapped itself around the ship. Blake glared at the Grimm as she pulled out her Gambol Shroud. The figure noticed the Grimm as they threw off their disguise, to reveal themselves to be Sun.

"You?!" Blake snapped not happy to see Sun was a stowaway on the ship. "Why are you following me?"

Sun was taken back by the anger in Blake's voice. "I uh...well uh...Neptune was gonna join but he gets sea sick easily so..." He didn't have much to say as he looked at the Grimm. "Right now there's more important things to worry about."

Blake rolled her eyes. "Fine, let's deal with this Grimm, captain. You might want to help out as well...it'll take more than two to take this down."

The ship captain nodded as he had the cannons ready to fire at the Sea Feilong, Blake had sprung into action as Sun followed as he used his semblance to make clones of himself to help out. The Feligon roared as it snapped it's jaw at Blake trying to take a bite out of the Faunus, but Blake was quicker than it had thought.

While everyone was busy with the Feligon, the other figure had poked their head from hiding. They wanted to strike while they were distracted by the Grimm. But then again, this person had a much better idea up their sleeve.

"I'll sit back and watch, the Grimm might mistake me for an enemy. I can't risk it yet, not when I was given a task." The figure spoke as they pulled out a scroll. "Mission guidelines from Adam Taurus, attack the traitor Blake Belladonna. Dead or Alive.." The figure put the scroll away as they went back to watching the fight. "Seems easy."

Blake had grabbed onto the Feligon's whiskers as she cut one of them off, the Feligon shook around like crazy and flung Blake off of it's head sending her flying to a rocky cliff, luckily Sun used his semblance to have his clones toss him over to catch Blake before she could hit the rocks.

"I gotcha." Sun said holding Blake.

Blake scoffs as she jumps down and looks at the Feligon as it went air born with it's wings. "Throw me, I'll cut one of it's wings...then let it chase you around these rock pillars."

"T-Throw you? But what if I miss?" Sun asked.

Blake glared at him. "Just do it."

Sun nodded lightly as he watched Blake jump up as he made two fist with his hands and boosted Blake up into the air, Blake used Gambol Shroud to boost herself higher as she threw it near the ship and swung around getting higher, and higher.

The people on the ship as well as the ship captain watched, Blake came down at a fast speed as she gripped her Gambol Shroud and when the Feligon was in close reach, she ran along side it's left wing dragging Gambol Shroud in it's wing, which eventually fell off.

"Oh boy." Sun said as he used his semblance again as his clones jumped up to catch Blake. "Right, now it's my turn." Sun watched the Feligon fall from the sky as he started to jump along the rock pillars. "Can't catch me!"

The Feligon was enraged as it followed Sun around the pillars, which was getting itself tangled up. The ship captain watched from a telescope, eventually getting the idea of what was going on. Once Sun had made it to the other end, the Feligon was stuck as it noticed why, the ship captain thrusted the ship into full speed as it's pointed nose pierced into the Grimm.

"Now!" Blake yelled.

The ship captain nodded as the main cannon was aimed at the Feligon before firing, the Feligon had lost it's head as all that was left was it's body as it exploded into dust.

The figure took their hood off and had a small grin. "Well, that was interesting to watch...but Draken here has a job to do..." The figure had exposed themselves as Draken. "Adam thinks he can really trust me with a task like that? Little does he know I have other orders."

~~~

The passenger ship had resumed it's course to Menagerie as Blake was a little annoyed that Sun had followed her, she had her arms crossed as she looked out at the ocean once more.

"Blake, you just ran away after the fall. Didn't you think maybe your friends needed your help?" Sun asked.

Blake didn't answer as she closed her eyes. "I had to run away, if I stayed with them. I'd only be a burden." She opened her eyes as she looked up at the sky. "Besides, they'd blame me for not stopping Adam...I have family I need to get back to..my past was catching up to me.."

"Past, as in Adam and the Fang? You can't keep running from the past, you have to face it head on to have a new future." Sun said. "I get it, everyone's families would be worried if they heard what happened at Beacon, some of us aren't so lucky to have a family to go home too."

The ship had came to a stop as they were at the docks. Blake got off as Sun followed behind, Draken on the other hand had also gotten off. But had went a different way. They were now at Menagerie, Blake's home. There were so many Faunus out and about that Sun began looking around for which one had banana's.

"So uh, where's your place at?" Sun asked curiously.

Blake had walked all the way to the end of the dirt road as she pointed to the biggest house. "That one."

Sun's jaw dropped as he saw the house. "Whoa, your parents must be rich or something.."

Blake stayed silent after as she made her way down the path to her house. Once the two got there, Blake knocked on the door. The door opened as a middle aged woman who looked like Blake stood there, her eyes widen as she hugged Blake.

"H-Hi mom." Blake said.

"Blake, your home!" Kali said as she was still hugging Blake as she didn't notice Sun at first, until she had let go. "Who's this?"

"Oh uh...this is Sun.." Blake said. "Where's dad?" She had changed the subject as she looked at her mother. "And where's..." Before she could finish saying anything, her ears twitched as she heard a plate drop to the floor.

"Oh dear." Kali said as she turned around. "Derek honey...is everything okay?" She had noticed him standing near the kitchen door way.

Blake rubbed her arm a little as she looked down. "H-Hi brother...long time no see...sorry for not keeping in touch."

Derek was Blake's young brother, making her the oldest sibling among the two. His yellow cat eyes were glossy as he took his blue glasses off to wipe away any tears. "Blake...you're back!"

Sun was confused as he looked at Blake and then over to Kali. "Hey uh...you never told me you had a brother."

Blake shushed Sun as she walked into the house and gave her brother a hug. "I am now...but I don't know how long I'll be around."

"Your farther is out getting things done by the way." Kali said as she gestured Sun to come into the house. "We heard what happened at Beacon..."

Blake's ears go down as she looked at Kali. "Yeah...The fang attacked, as well as the Grimm..Adam was there too, he attacked me."

Kali looked at Blake as she was a bit confused. "The Fang? Your farther won't be to thrilled to hear that."

Sun butted in soon after. "Wait, what does your farther have to do with the White Fang?"

Derek cleaned his glasses as he put's them back on his face. "Our farther was the former high leader of the Fang, before Sienna Khan had taken that role after he stepped down from it." He looked to Blake again. "I know I wasn't there at Beacon with you. But maybe after the human and Faunus war, there were still some Faunus aside from you who hated humans still and followed Adam to become a new group of White Fang?"

Blake was surprised by this as she rubs her chin. "You're on the right track...still, dad needs to know this. Even if Sienna Khan is in charge now. Clearly she must know of what happened."

During the afternoon, Ghira had returned home to listen to what Blake had to say. Draken was nearing the Fang hide out as he heard rumors that Adam was in Menagerie. He had one task to do and he didn't want Adam to know, but over at the Belladonna residents a Faunus who had the semblance to use camouflage
