RWBY: The Black Reaper

Ozpin stared blankly, his mind was filled with confusion. What he just had heard scared him. He spoke to Mesa " Thank you Mr Uchiha… You can leave with the rest now. I have few things to think about "

Mesa nodded and left, the rest followed him. Glynda looked at Ozpin with worry, she asked him " What should we do now? The Black Reaper was dangerous enough, now we know about someone who is far more dangerous. And there is a chance we already fell victims for his semblance"

Ozpin spoke to in grave tone " Indeed!! At first, I had a feeling that mr Uchiha was lying. But some of what he said are details not even the queen knows about. I am quite sure that what he said is not the complete truth "

Glynda asked " You think he lied to us?"

Ozpin answered " Probably… Most of what he told us must be the truth. However, there is few things didn't mention such as what is his semblance capable of at maximum power. Maybe he hid part of his brothers powers as well. What we know so far proved the truth of the most part, which was scary enough. But adding the third….. Is madness. I'm inclined to believe him and even doubt the possibility of Mesa being controlled or his mind is messed up by his brother"

Glynda looked slightly confused, but Ozpin continued " Do you remember the incident when he killed other students in Signal. His behaviour prior to that didn't indicate any kind of violence tendencies. He stayed at Xiaolong house for years and according to Tai, Mesa didn't show any violent behaviour at all. He was perfect in every aspect, polite and nice in general to everyone. In Signal, the first day was quite peaceful. Mesa didn't cause rukus or trouble to any of the teachers there, he listened to everything they said. lastly , the people said he approached the students with words, he wanted to scare them by school's rules and didn't start fighting immediately. At some point, as if something snapped, his way of talking and walking changed then he killed the students "

Glynda was surprised, she thought a little and said " You think at that time, he wasn't being himself, he was controlled??!!"

Ozpin nodded and said " There is no way a child would fake his behaviour and true nature for years this perfectly. And If we assumed he always was like that, then with his ability and intelligence, why would he show his true colours in front of everyone. That didn't make sense, I always thought there is something I'm missing, but now I think we found the answer of what happened that day"

Glynda looked confused and surprised at the same time, she asked " Why didn't he say anything or return to Xiaolong house then? "

Ozpin said " Maybe for years, he couldn't control himself or was afraid to return and cause trouble. Beside, who would believe him? I would have doubted his words, if not for the relics and your meeting with The Black Reaper. I think Mesa has a kind heart deep inside him, but the existence of his brother ruined his mind and personality. A kind child suddenly forced to kill and do god knows what other horrible thing by his brother "

Glynda's eyes now were filled with pity, she thought about Mesa's behaviour and what Ozpin said. She felt sorry for him, maybe he was not the evil person she thought him to be initially. He is just a kind child forced to do all these horrible things, and he had no say in his actions. Her resentment toward Mesa disappeared completely. She swore she will help Mesa to recover to his old self someday no matter what.

Ozpin was thinking what to do next. His opponents this time are far worse than Salem. Deep inside his heart, he felt fear for Salem. If the third brother was truly like what Mesa described and he went to her domain to play. He didn't even want to know what that twisted monster will attempt to do.

While Ozpin and Glynda were deviating more and more from the truth, Mesa was walking back to the dorms with the rest of his team and team RWBY. Even though none spoke, everyone could see the pity and sadness for Mesa in each other eyes. They didn't expect their powerful friend had suffered this much. He didn't show any signs of suffering or pain. They tried to put themselves in his shoes only to shudder at the thought of having you brain toyed with for fun. This thought scared them.

Mesa could easily guess their thoughts, he sighed internally [ I wanted to toy with Ozpin and make him go crazy because of fear and worry. And get some pity from the girls, but this is too much pity ]

Mesa decided to speak " I know there is a lot for you to wrap your minds about, I'm sorry for confusing you this much. I will let you stay alone and think for yourselves " With that and before anyone could say a word, Mesa disappeared into a spiral. Everyone looked at each other, pity was clear in their eyes.

Ruby said first " We have to help him, I didn't know he suffered this much "

Yang followed " Yes, and the cause is his brother no less. I always wondered why he killed the seniors in Signal. But now, I think I know why "

Everyone looked at Yang who in return said " There are few things we need to tell you first."

The two groups entered RWBY's room, Ruby and Yang talked about their childhood and the sudden change in Mesa's behaviour and what he done. Like Glynda and Ozpin, They two groups started to make assumptions that as further as Glynda and Ozpin assumptions were from the truth.

Mesa appeared in Vale streets, and started walking around. He was quite bored after separating from the others, he had a whole day but nothing to do. He wondered where are the good missions when I'm free. It didn't take him long to find something fun to do.

Mesa could sense a familiar aura in the ice cream shop in the next street, Mesa had an evil smile now. He went directly toward the shop.

Inside the shop, Neo was eating her favourite sweet, the ice cream, when she felt a shiver running down her spine. For some reason, she felt like a scary beast was heading toward her location. She stood up preparing to leave, she didn't want to know what is the cause for this feeling.

She walked toward the exist, when she opened the door, she saw the perverted demon who harassed her and kissed her forcefully staring at her with evil smile. She felt anger and shame because of him, but more than anything fear. She still remembered his words. He will come to play with her later.

She sent a kick toward Mesa only for her kick to pass his body as if he was a ghost. She knew she had no chance of winning. So she wanted to run back in hope of escaping. How could she succeed with Mesa on her Back. He swiftly used his eye to teleport himself with her alongside to a distant roof.

Mesa laughed evilly and said " My dear little beauty!! I hope you missed me, You should know I missed you. Don't be so heartless and cold. I'm here to have fun not to fight "

Neo stepped back seeing his face, she didn't dare to lower her blade. Mesa faked a sigh and said " Look I'm here to have fun with you. What about this…. Go out with me on a date without fighting or attempting to hit me or kill me. In return I won't attempt to kiss, touch your b.r.e.a.s.t or take any kind of advantage from you. I keep my words don't worry" He said as he raised both of his hands.

Neo didn't care what this demon said, she was still thinking how to escape. Mesa was getting bored of her act. So he extended his arm and said < Bansho Tenin >

Neo was pulled directly toward him. She tried to resist but failed. Mesa easily caught her. When she tried to stab him, he caught her hand which was holding the hilt of the blade. He twisted her arm then rotated her around.

Now, neo was having her back toward Mesa with her arm behind her back being held by Mesa's left hand. Mesa's other hand was on her c.h.e.s.t, he was moving to of his fingers as if they were having a walk. Neo tried to fight and break free but to no veil.

Mesa licked her earlobe and said " Even your earlobe is tasty, so what do you wish to do next? We can have our pure nice date or we can compare the differences between male and female bodies "

Neo's face became pale as she stopped resisting him, she didn't dare to. Mesa smiled and let go of her. He said " It's date then. Don't worry, I'm a gentleman "

Neo kept staring at him with watery eyes, but she didn't try to run. She gave up on escaping from him. She could only hope he will keep his word.

Mesa picked neo's blade and parasol and gave them back to her like a gentleman. He then teleported with her again. Neo was surprised in change of locations again. This time she was in a completely foreign place. She wasn't sure where he took her.

Mesa knowing what she meant, he said with a smile " We are in The Kingdom Of Atlas, this is an old street for the nobles and high class community in Atlas. Follow me, the best restaurant I know is around the corner"

Neo didn't ease up hearing his words, she was alone with him in another kingdom. Regardless how good it looked, she had fears of what Mesa could do, she could only follow him for now.

Mesa took her to the biggest and most expensive restaurant in whole Atlas. She opened her mouth seeing the display. She had never seen such an amazing seen. All she knew were simple looking shops for normal people, some even for the poor.

Mesa didn't bother taking her opinion, he directly went inside the restaurant and asked for a table. Neo could only follow him while looking around in amazement. One of the waiting staff led Mesa and Neo to their table.

Mesa sat in his chair and looked at Neo, who was looking around. He said with a smirk " My dear little beauty you can take a seat. The display won't run away from you "

Neo seeing his smirk and hearing his words, she felt embarrassed. She took her seat silently and looked at Mesa with resentment, that earned her a victory smirk from Mesa.

The waiter brought the menu for them to choose from. Neo read the menu, but she didn't know any of the meals in the menu. She could only notice the price being way too high. In order to eat a meal here, she would need the money of selling all the dust stolen by a single rubbery by Roman. She believed Mesa must be filthy rich if he could bring her here.

Mesa looked at Neo who was staring with all her mental strength in the menu. He thought she might either trying to guess what is the meal served her or thinking about the price. He smiled and said to the waiter " Bring me a plate of each. As for the drink get me Domaine Leroy Musigny Grand Cru "

The waiter replied " Okay Sir ". The waiter wasn't surprise by Mesa's order, this meal costs is really very high. But he knew Mesa since he was a regular around here before Mesa entering Beacon. He didn't know who the young man but he knew the young man in simple cloth is very rich and have some great background.

Neo looked in amazement at Mesa, he was really filthy rich. she was trying to guess what does he want from her, first time he followed her to Roman's nest. He knocked out everyone with the except of her, then he stole a kiss and s.e.x.u.a.lly harassed her before knocking her out, now he kidnapped her and brought her to a place she didn't dream to enter on her own. Mesa looked at her and said with smile " What with these looks? I just want to have fun with my dear little beauty. Can't I do that?"

Neo wasn't pleased by his words, she even got angry. She wanted to bite him to death, but alas, he was too strong. Mesa continued to speaking with her in random topics, in return Neo huffed and ignored him. Mesa wasn't angry in the slightest.

After few minutes, the waiter came back with the order. The table was filled with all kind of foods. Neo started at the food with a shining eyes, this was the most good looking food she had ever seen. She nearly drooled. Mesa was laughing at the site.

Mesa said " You can start eating, you don't need to be polite "

Neo looked at him and blushed slightly because of her behaviour, she recovered quickly and started eating. At first, she was slow paced but then her speed started to increase. Mesa on the other hand was eating slowly while keeping his class. He didn't care a lot about how he should eat or how the others looked at him. He simply ate in the way he liked, which was elegant and with moderate speed. He didn't mind Neo eating like that.

Many of the people surrounding them, looked at Neo with disgust. Many of the young ladies present, looked at the young handsome young man sitting elegantly near a brutish girl who was eating fast with no manners.

One of the young ladies with no brains actually brought her friends and walked toward Mesa and Neo. She spoke " It seems this place quality had dropped to accept two coloured hair monkey like you here" Neo and Mesa looked at the young lady and the girls behind her. The young lady who just insulted Neo looked back at Mesa, she could feel an extraordinary air around him.

She was a young lady from a noble family and she saw many people with extraordinary bearing, the young man was of them. She was correct in her assumptions, but made a single mistake. The reason behind Mesa's bearings wasn't not his background but because he was a deadly assassin, he would only talk with these he wants at the time he wants. He didn't care about the birth place or what they are. He does everything according to his whims. Mesa subconsciously acted like a king of death. In his presence, only he can decided the life and death of someone. No one can defy his will.

The young lady said " Young sir, you shouldn't sit with the kinds of these people, they would bring you a bad reputation …. Oh, where is my manners??!! I'm ….."

Mesa was pissed someone dared to annoy him while he was annoying Neo. He spoke with a cold tone " S.l.u.t!! Scram out of my site !!! Otherwise I will give you a fate worse than death "

Mesa's eyes changed, the young lady thought these eyes were hypnotizingly beautiful but she also felt a sense of dread. She started sweating, she felt like someone was aiming his or her weapon at her heart. She wasn't the only one, all the girls behind her and the even the people who was looking at Neo in disdain could feel the pressure coming from Mesa. No one of the present dared to do or say anything.

The young lady and her friends ran away as fast as they could, they directly left the restaurant without even looking back.

Neo looked at Mesa, she didn't expect him to defend her like that. Mesa looked at her and said " What??!! Why are you surprised?? It is natural for the man to protect his future wife "

Neo opened her eyes at his words. These words were the last thing she expected him to say. Neo looked at his handsome and smiling face, she couldn't help but blush a little.
