Chapter 36 - Blasphemy X

Weiss's POV.

I was surprised when these two girls came into my Team's dorm demanding to speak with me, so I was quite defensive about talking of anything, "So who are you two?" I asked, not really thinking they'd answer.

"My name is Gloom, and she's my girlfriend, Shimmer." The one with the black hair introduced, "...Oh wait! You didn't think we'd introduce ourselves, did you?" Shimmer realized with a smirk.

While that left me slightly speechless, Blake was staring the two down, "So what business do you have?" She asked, "I own a meadery and basically have a monopoly on the mead market." Gloom replied, "I have a weapon factory and a food factory." Shimmer replied next.

This answer left Blake slightly speechless, "That's not what I meant..." She said, "Ah, in that case we're here to find information about Malavia." Shimmer explained, causing all four of us to look worried, "We don't really know anything about the leader of Blasphemy X..." Ruby responded, making Gloom smile a bit.

"...Ruby you dolt..." I said as I facepalmed, "So that's what it's called? And you're all part of it?" Gloom asked, prompting me to take out Myrtenaster.

Shimmer's POV.

Seeing Weiss take her weapon out, I just proceeded to pull out a document out of my pocket and showed it to her, "We've been officially asked by her mother to keep an eye on her, signed by Malavia too." I explain as Weiss read the document.

As her eyes went down the lines, Yang tried starting some small talk, "So... You two are a thing?" She asked, "Yeah, we've been dating for a month." Gloom confirmed, "Being sure about your sexuality must be great, I'm still figuring it out." Ruby commented, "Just think: Is this boy pretty ? Or is this girl pretty? If one or the other comes on top, you're attracted to that." I explained, "That's very reductive..." Blake said, "Bitch, you better hope it stays this reductive!" I warn, knowing what it's like back in my world.

"This is the boss's signature." Weiss confirmed to the others, "Wow! So you actually are supposed to be her babysitters?" Yang questioned with a smirk, "I'm starting to question it." Gloom admitted, "Just bring us to her alright?" I requested.

A While of Walking Later.

We found ourselves in an alleyway, "This seems like the start of a mafia movie." I comment, noticing how cliche it feels, "That's what I said." Blake noted in agreement as she pressed a few bricks in the wall in a certain order.

After the a moment, the wall opened, revealing a purple elevator, "We'll keep leading you, just in case." Ruby told us, taking out Crescent Rose to make her point, "Hey, why is it glowing?" Gloom asked, "It's up to the boss if she will tell you." Weiss replied, "Fair." Gloom conceded.

When we got in the elevator, Yang pressed a button, making the wall close and the elevator descend into what looked a night club, "...I have some experience with secret hideouts, but none of them look like this..." Gloom commented, "It's more of a rest area for the members, it's good for the mind to unwind after something like an operation, they can get violent." Blake explained.

Walking around, I noticed some members that looked somewhat familiar, "Are those Sienna and Adam?" I asked Team RWBY and they looked quite surprised, "But yo're not from Remntant, how do you know them" Ruby questioned, "Oh, bla! Bla, bla! Multiverse theory is a bitch!" I sum up not wanting to explain.

Gloom's POV.

After Shimmer said that she continued listing names "Cinder... Roman... Neo... Emerald... Why are the here?" She asked confused, "Well, after the literal QUEEN OF THE GRIMM, who is also our headmaster's Ex-Wife showed up and gave up control of the grimm, everything sort of started happening on it's own" Yang summed up.

I decided to leave them to this as I went to check a sword that's glowing like Ruby's scythe, "Peculiar..." I mutter to myself as I pick it up, noticing a button on the handle, and as I press it, the blade of the sword changes into a shaft and at the tip a hammer forms, "I should ask Malavia about this." I think to myself as I put the weapon back down.

"So are we meeting Malavia or not?" I call out to the others, "Right! We got sidetracked!" Ruby realized, "I guess we should bring you there, we still had stuff to do back at Beacon." Weiss commeted as she led the way.

Following them, we ended up at a door, "She's inside, don't do anything stupid." Weiss warned, "Tall order for this one." I say as I pointed to Shimmer, "Fuck you!" She exclaimed with a small scowl.

After saying or byes to Team RWBY, Shimmer and I entered the door, revealing an office where a little girl with large purple horns was talking to the phone, "Yes, I'll have a reservation for one-" She stopped as she noticed us in the room, "Actually, make that three okay? Okay." She concluded, ending the call.

"So you must be Shimmer and Gloom huh?" She asked with a mischievous smirk.
