RWBY: The Black Reaper

Chapter 33 - Disastrous Brothers

" I haven't seen you for nearly a year, and after this long period, the first thing you do is welcoming me with a 'shinra tensei' to the face, really? You are hurting my feelings!! My dear twin brother!!" The Black Reaper said

Mesa rolled his eyes and said " Please!! It not like you are hurt or anything. Beside, you are the one who attacked my friends, teammate, adoptive siblings and the Boringwitch. Dear Brother "

" First, they attacked me first. Second, I wasn't going to kill them, just scaring them silly and maybe removing few limbs at most while I am at it. Hehehehe" The Black Reaper said

" I always considered myself an evil asshole, but you always come and prove me how wrong I am. I'm a f.u.c.k.i.n.g angel compared to you " Mesa

" You are an angel? You are the devil!! You bastard cooked and ate my beloved Tweety??!!" The Black Reaper said with rage.

" You are still holding grudge??!! It was like 5 years ago and It was a f.u.c.k.i.n.g bird. I didn't know it was your pet. You are the asshole who left him to fly in the forest alone!!" Mesa Retorted

" It is not an excuse for your crime. You hunted a defenceless bird and ate you f.u.c.k.i.n.g monster!! " The Black Reaper said with rage.

Everyone stared with widened eyes, these two actually were brothers? Twin brothers? And now they are bickering about a bird? Their mind couldn't process the situation. Glynda just stared at them. The first guy was a monster that she hated to the bone, the second guy is one of the most dangerous killer in remenant's history. Now, it turned out they are brothers and it seems they are not on a good term because of a bird!! Glynda's mind was spinning.

The two brothers raised their hands in each other direction. Both them said something at the same time.

< Kamui >

< Amaterasu>

The next happened scared the shit out of everyone. A spiral appeared in the middle between them filled with black flames. The spiral changed shape and turned into a giant spinning sphere of black flames. The wind started moving faster and faster around them. Afterward, The sphere started compress and then sploded, the shock wave sent everything flying even the dust containers, the only exception is the two causing the shock wave. Glynda and the students eyes opened and looked with terror at the huge crater in the middle. As if a huge bomb hit the docks, they couldn't understand how these two could cause this amount of destruction just from their attacks classhing.

This was not the end of their surprises today, the air around Mesa started distorting, the ground under his feet was cracking as well and the stones from the cracks flying upward in slow motion. Mesa raised his hand with a weird dark purple ball inside it. In front of him, The Black Reaper was surrounding with light purple glow, the glow had some were things materializing in it. They looked like a giant rib cage.

" Even though I hate to admit it, we are equal. Your Kami can stop my Amaterasu and my Susanoo will stop your Tengai Shinsei. Of course we can go at it, but none of the idiots behind you would survive our battle. You need to keep them alive, while I need to keep what left of the dust here. Let's call it off for now"

Mesa dissipated the ball in his hand, the air around him turned normal and the flying stones fell to the ground. He said casually" Very well. So how have you been? What are you doing these days?"

" Everything is alright on my side. Still doing the same, hunting few idiots here and there. What about you? How is Beacon? I heard you had fight with that disgusting headmaster " The Black Reaper asked

" Not bad. The school is good, not that thrilling but still acceptable. As for that pedo old bastard, yeah I had a small fight with him. But luckily for him, I was stopped before killing him. By the way, why are you still working as killer? Is it money?" Mesa asked

" Nah,I don't need money !! I just find it thrilling to hunt and kill my targets. If you don't want to dirt your hand with the headmaster, you can always hire me. I will even give you a discount " The Black Reaper

" Thanks, I will keep it in mind " Mesa said

" I have to go now, Goodbye" The Black Reaper turned around and started leaving

" Goodbye" Mesa said and turned around to look at the people behind him. Some of them were injured, others were fine but they had dust all over their bodies. But all of them were staring at his as if they saw a ghost.

Glynda asked first " The Black Reaper is your brother? "

" Yup, didn't you hear us? " Mesa looked at her with ' are you an idiot? ' look

Glynda didn't have the strength to get angry, she just kept staring at him as she asked again " He is your twin brother like born at the same time with you? "

" Yes, I don't think it's the best time to be an idiot. Blake has broken ribs and Weiss's shoulder is bleeding. Shouldn't we carry them to the hospital or something like that" Mesa still giving her the same look

Mesa's words woke up Glynda from her daze, she looked at her students with worry. She immediately carried them back to Beacon to receive medical help. Afterward, she went to Ozpin to tell him about everything happened tonight.

Back in the dorms, Everyone from team RWBY and MNPR were present. Blake and Weiss were lying on their beds bandged. The rest were either setting on the beds or on the chars. All of them starting at Mesa.

Mesa who was the center of their focus didn't seem bothered at all. He simply looked at them waiting them to talk.

Yang couldn't take the silence anymore and said with her eyes glowing red " Are you not going to talk? What with this brother thing all of a sudden? Why didn't you say anything about it? Your brother nearly killed us, aren't you going to say anything?"

" Let's see, The Black Reaper you met today happen to be my twin brother, his real name is Centos. In term of strength, he is as strong as me. And I didn't talk about him, because you didn't ask and the fact I can't really come and said ' Hi!!! Do you know I have twin brother and he happened to be the most dangerous criminal in the world with nearly a thousand kill under his belt. Oh, did I mention he achieved that in 6 years and he was 10 years old when he started'. I don't think a normal person would mention such a subject. Personally, I don't care about what he does? But I know you guys would " Mesa answered

Everyone stayed silent, they weren't sure how they should talk with him. Mesa seeing them decided to speak " I know that is a lot to take in. So I will leave you to think for yourselves, Bye !" Mesa left the room. None stopped him as they were thinking about what happened and what they should do.

Once Mesa left the room, he teleported to where The Black Reaper was staying. Mesa looked at him and laughed. He said to himself " The first part of the plan played well. Controlling corpses and giving them visual powers gave me a lot of possibilities, with this none will ever suspect me. I'm sure Ozpin now is going crazy.. Hahahahaha.. He is in for a lot of surprises soon"

In ozpin's office, Glynda was telling Ozpin everything happened tonight. Ozpin was shocked hearing the news. The Black Reaper appeared in Vale and he turned out to be Mesa's twin brother. Ozpin was having troubles rounding his mind around Mesa's strength. Mesa was someone who had semblances stronger than the powers of Maidens. His twin brother was as strong as Mesa!! To Ozpin, this is was a disturbing news.

Ozpin spoke with grave tone " First, we had to deal with Mesa. He didn't care much about right and wrong, he did whatever he wished, his strength was a threat. But we could tolerate him as he would never follow the orders from others. If the queen tried to force or blackmail him, then I was sure he wouldn't hesitate to start an all out war against her. Now, his brother appeared and he like Mesa has more than one semblance and they are devastatingly powerful, probably stronger than maidens' powers as well."

Ozpin clenched his fists and took a deep breath before he continued " From what you said, he would accept missions to kill people for some money because he simply enjoy the killing. He is much more dangerous than Mesa. If the queen realised his strength, she will definitely contact him. Adding your description of his actions, then it is safe to assume he will not refuse aiding her. In addition, If he is truly as powerful as Mesa, then I have no doubt that if he decided to attack Beacon, then Beacon would probably fall "

Glynda was silent, she also understood how dangerous their situation is, but she doubted a single person could take on the entirety of Beacon. So she asked " I know he is extremely powerful, he was stronger than anyone I have ever met. But I doubt, he would dare to attack Beacon's by himself. That's a suicide no matter how powerful he is "

Ozpin shook his head and said " I'm afraid you are mistaken. I didn't meet this Black Reaper, but I faced Mesa. Do you remember what I said about him stronger than me and even stronger than a maiden ?"

Glynda nodded, Ozpin continued " That was his strength when he was not fully serious. Before miss Rose stopping him, I felt his strength rising at alarming rate, he was getting serious. I can't describe that feeling, but in that moment, I gave up!! I had a feeling no matter what I did, I would be killed with his next attack. In that moment, I understood that if Mesa joined the queen, then we will lose the war !!! Do you understand how bad our situation now? "

Glynda had a new understanding of the situation, it was much worse than what she initially thought. She asked " What are you planning to do? "

Ozpin lowered his head and said " I don't know! We can only pray that The Black Reaper won't help the queen, or Mesa will join our side. "

Glynda said " Maybe Mesa joining us is not impossible. These two didn't seem to like each other a lot. If his brother were to join the queen, wouldn't he join our side? "

Ozpin shook his head " I doubt Mesa would care about his brother action, he wasn't bothered by the killing and massacres his brother committed. Another possibility I dread to think about is what if these two got along and fought together? I have a feeling that they could take down a kingdom by themselves "

Glynda paled at the thought of these two monsters working together, she said with a shaking voice " These two are not men, they are walking disasters "

Ozpin agreed with Glynda. The only thing he could do now is praying.
