The Phantom Of Remnant

Ironwood frowned as he calmly said, "Just because I didn"t find fault before doesn"t means you can act up, deserter."

Ironwood"s woods seemed to anger Emily even more as she screamed, "Deserter!?! That"s funny how you can say that when you sent 10 entire squadrons on a f.u.c.king suicide mission!?!"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense as Ironwood and Emily glared at each other.

Just as Ironwood opened his mouth, he froze as Qrow"s voice echoed, "Jimmy, that"s enough."

With a slight cough, Ironwood straightened himself out as he calmly said, "Right."

Qrow turned his focus towards Magna as he curiously asked, "How come you didn"t flip out at Ironwood for arguing with your mother?"

Magna smiled as he happily said, "I fixed my anger problem."

Qrow rolled his eyes as he sarcastically said, "And I"ve been sober for the last 4 months."

Instead of biting back, Magna just shrugged as he gave Qrow a look that said, "Think what you"d like." before turning towards Ironwood.

Seeing this, Qrow gave Magna an approving nod before saying, "Jimmy, explain yourself."

Ironwood"s eyebrows twitched when he heard how Qrow addressed him but ignored it as he said, "From what Qrow"s told me, your semblance is quite strong. I believe that you"d grow faster at Atlas than if you attended Signal."

Qrow suddenly b.u.t.ted in as he added, "Because I needed to borrow an Airship to get back to Patch fast, I had to strike a deal with Jimmy here. In return for the Airship, he"s allowed to try and recruit you into the military for the remainder of the trip."

Ironwood smiled at Qrow"s words as he said, "That"s right. Now I"d like to confirm if your power is as strong as Qrow leads me to believe."

Magna hesitated as he didn"t really want to fight right now. He had only just woken up and just wanted to spend time with his family. In the end though, he decided to grant Ironwood"s request in return for letting his family experience flying in a travel-type Airship.

---

The Airship had just landed in large plain. In the distance was a small village while rows and rows of wheat grew in abundance.

Magna slowly walked out of the ship as he asked, "So, how are you going to test my abilities? I don"t really want to fight Qrow again."

Ironwood softly shook his head and said, "No, you won"t be fighting against Qrow. We are here to test your capabilities, not make you fight to the death."

As their feet finally touch the ground, Magna noticed a small group of people that seemed to be walking towards them.

However, once the group came into sight, Magna became stunned. Leading the group was a beautiful girl with white hair and icy blue eyes. Following the girl, was a miniature version of her. The only differences were the fact that the little one had longer hair and wore a dress. The rest of the people following behind the two girls were a mix of bulters and soldiers.

Ironwood frowned seeing the butlers and the little girl but didn"t lose his cool as he sighed and said, "Winter, why are civilians following behind you?

Winter stood calmly as she replied, "General, I applied for family visitation rights last month. Today is the day."

"Oh. At ease then."

With a quick nod, Winter turned towards Magna. She released a small giggle when she saw the boy staring at her in a daze.

Luckily, her giggling managed to wake Magna up as he blushed and turned away. Qrow outright burst into laughter, while Magna"s parents and even Ironwood softly chuckled. The only people that didn"t seem happy were Argo, Luna, Emerald and the mini-version of Winter.

Speaking of the devil, the little carbon copy stood before everyone and arrogantly said, "Hmph! Who are you!?! Don"t look at my sister, you heathen!"

Taken back, Magna looked confused as he asked, "Are you talking to me?"

The little girl started shaking as she yelled, "You dolt! Who else would I be talking to then besides you?"

Winter showed a wry smile as she politely said, "Please excuse my younger sister, she was firmly raised with the "Schnee" way of life. Weiss! What have I told you about randomly judging people!?!?

Weiss grabbed the sides of her dress and pouted. Tears gathered in her eyes but didn"t fall as she muttered, "That I shouldn"t judge people by how they look."

Winter gave Weiss a curt nod and said, "Then what should you be doing?"

Weiss"s pout grew as her cheeks slightly inflated, elevating her cuteness to another level. She refused to look Magna in the eyes as she quickly said, "I"m sorry for calling you a heathen."

Magna shook his head as he gave them a bright smile and said, "It"s alright. No harm done."

This time, Winter and Weiss were both stunned by Magna"s bright smile. His smiled seemed to be able to heat up even the coldest of hearts as Weiss directly blushed. Winter managed to compose her self as she released a slight cough before turning towards Ironwood.

"Sir, may I know for what reason you had to summon me? I take that it relates to the young boy here."

Ironwood took a couple minutes to catch Winter up. When she finally had the whole picture, the gaze she held towards Magna changed as she seemed clearly intrigued.

She took a few steps away from Magna before turning back towards him and yelling, "Since we"re here to test your capabilities, let"s start quickly."

With a wry smile, Magna got into position as a change suddenly occured. The feeling Magna was giving off changed as it became somewhat evil. His ordinary light blue aura immediately changed into a b.l.o.o.d.y crimson as he instantly covered himself in the demon fox cloak.

Winter immediately leapt back to create s.p.a.ce between them yet no matter how far she backed up, she still felt as if she was in range of his attacks.

Magna showed a cheeky smile on his face as he slammed his arms against the ground. Winter and Ironwood looked confused but Qrow smirked as he yelled, "Watch your feet, Ice-Queen."

Before Winter could retort at Qrow, the ground exploded underneath her as two crimson arms snaked out and latched onto her legs.

Without warning, Magna grunted loudly as his arms lifted Winter off the ground and launched her high into the sky.

Seeing her fly through the sky, Magna quickly dismissed the demon fox cloak around his body and launched himself at Winter.

He knew that falling from that height, while not fatal, will probably hurt alot and might even injury her seriously.

As soon as he managed to wrap his arms around her, Magna"s expression froze as he paled and yelled, "Too heavy!"

Everyone who was watching the fight froze. Suddenly, Qrow burst into a fit of laughter and collapsed to the ground while clutching his stomach. Magna"s parents sighed while Joshua softly muttered, "Idiot…"

Weiss glared at Magna with burning rage as she tried to dash into the fight but was blocked by her butlers. Argo, Luna and Emerald were chuckling together at Winter while making sure that Magna was fine.

The reason Magna called her heavy is because he"s still worn out from the fight with Qrow. Usually, his aura augmented his strength, allowing him to use strength beyond his young body.

However, his aura reserves were relatively low before the fight. He didn"t take into account his remaining aura and blew most of it on his demon fox form. Then, launching himself off the ground took even more aura, leaving him with a miniscule amount.

"AHHHHHHHH!!!" X2

Accompanied by two loud screams, Magna and Winter crashed into the ground. As the dust cloud settled, Winter was standing infront of Magna with a heavy blush on her face.

Without caring about the viewing eyes, Winter raised her hand up high and screamed, "YOU HEATHEN!!!"

PAHHHHH!!!
