Remnant's Black Snow Hope [Under Revisions]

Chapter 40: Back Together

Blake Pov:

After getting our stuff ready Sun, Y/N and I head out to recruit members for Haven Academy.

Blake: Okay, Are you both ready?

Y/N: Good to go.

Sun: I beat up on giant monsters and robots more than once, I think I can handle getting a few signatures.

We all split off with me heading to a Platform and gathering some Faunus.

Blake: Your chieftain needs you! Your people need you! Please, join the fight and help us save Haven Academy!

I continue asking more Faunus getting rejected at each turn.

Blake: (I hope the others are doing better)

After many more rejections I called Sun and Y/N to a cafe to take a break.

I head to the Cafe and see it's just Sun.

Blake: Where's Y/N?

Sun: She wanted to keep trying.

Blake: I see.

We then order and get our drinks.

Sun: (slamming his cup down) I don't get it! How can they just sit around and do nothing with the White Fang getting ready to attack!

Blake: Because not everyone is like you and me. The Faunus here in Menagerie - the ones that weren't born on the island - moved here because they were tired of fighting, of having to struggle constantly. Menagerie is filled with people that just want to be left alone, (scoffs) and here we are, asking them to put the rest of the world before themselves.

Sun: I guess I never really thought about it like that.

Blake: The problem is, whatever happens at Haven is going to affect them whether they like it or not. If Adam gets his way and Haven falls, it's only going to make things worse for the Faunus. Everywhere.

Sun: Adam... He's the guy you used to... work with?

Blake: [Sigh] Yes.

Sun: Sorry, forget I brought it up.

Blake: Not it's okay.

I try and think of a way to properly explain how Adam was.

Blake: Have you ever met someone and thought to yourself, "They are the personification of this word."

Sun: (rubbing his head) Uh...

Blake: Okay, well, I remember getting to know Ruby and thinking, "This girl is the embodiment of "purity"." After a while, I saw Weiss was "defiance". And Yang was "strength".

Sun: What am I?

Blake: Jury's still out on that one, but I'm leaning towards "earnest".

Sun: I can get with that.

Blake: [Laughs]

I then start thinking about Adam.
