It was a warm and sunny day in Vale as Blake sat at an outdoor table, in a café. They had visited it before, which was why they had chosen it to be their meeting place for today. In all simplicity, the two of them intended to exchange information they had gained about their missing teammates. Yang was supposed to arrive any moment now, but, knowing Yang, the Faunus wouldn’t be surprised even if she would run a bit late. As it was, Blake took a sip of her tea, returning her gaze to the book in her hand for now.
It had been a rough year. First Ruby, their team leader and Yang’s younger sister had disappeared from her bed without so much as a trace, and later on, Weiss had left them, and later disappeared as well. The two were desperate and they knew it, but what other choice did they have? Leave their friends and family and abandon their search? Blake knew her partner would never be able to abandon her sister, knowing how their past had winded up being.. And Blake… Well, Blake didn’t want to abandon those, whom had accepted her as she was, despite her Faunus heritage. Those people, were good people as well as her team.
Lifting her gaze from the book, the black haired girl directed her gaze at the crowd once more, this time spotting the bright yellow, flowing hair approaching her. Lifting her hand in a greeting, Blake was about to call out to the other. Ya…. Thunk Her speech cut short as she could feel something impact on the back of her head, feeling how her body began to fall, as her vision faded into the darkness, and the sounds disappeared.
-------------------------------------------
Darkness. How fitting, the girl thought to herself, chuckling how it seemed to be her colour. But in darkness, there was a light. A bright one at that too. Blake’s pupils shrunk instinctively, adjusting into the darkness much like that of a feline’s. Now that her eyes had adjusted, the girl could make out a figure in the darkness, a white one at that. She tried to ask her question out loud, only to find out she wasn’t able to do so, the desire to do so remaining only a thought ‘Weiss?’ However, her thought was not given an answer, before waves crashed against her consciousness, a voice echoing in her mind.
Omniverse? Rules? Wait wait wait, had she been somehow captured, transported into a different universe? Was this the same that had happened to Ruby and Weiss..? But… Yang..! Instantly, soul crushing weight landed upon the faunus, as she thought the possibility, that she might just have disappeared right before her partner’s eyes, unable to tell her in any way, what had happened. And then, their one sided communication continued.
Omnilium? Tying the universe together? Achieving whatever she desired the most? What she desired was so painstakingly simple though! She wanted her friends and team back! Yang! Ruby! Weiss! The dark haired girl desired for nothing more, even if she was the silent one of them.
She wouldn’t die in this universe? Instead being reborn? ...Would there be Grimm? Or was this simply a hell of somekind? Alternate universe? So many unanswered questions coursed through the woman’s mind with hyper speed, and none of them were given answers, would she have to find her own answers..? Then again seeking her own path was nothing new to Blake, considering how she had left White Fang in the past.
And so, Blake’s consciousness faded once more, filled with unanswered questions.
-------------------------------------------
Blake could feel her consciousness slowly returning to her, as light began to shrine through her closed eyelids. Letting out a mild groan, the girl brought her arm to block some brightness, as her eyes adjusted once more, finding that she was laying on the ground. On cobblestone, to be exact. Before her eyes, was a...table leg? the girl decuced as she cast her eyes upwards, and found herself greeted by the bottom of the table.
With feline-like agility, the girl made it onto her feet, glancing around her. It was the café she had just been in… With the exception that this time, she was alone. No people, no Yang…. Yang! Mentally slapping herself, the Faunus spun into action, making her way to the inside of the cafe, raising her voice a little as she called out “Yang..? …..Anyone?” She was given no response, although she received a flashback of what she had just witnessed.. Omniverse? She was in a different universe..? But why.. did it still look the same, then? But without all the people?
Finally, Blake took note of how her own clothing seemed the same still. Still the white shirt, black vest and purple, gradient leggings. But something was lacking. The weight on her back, that she had learned to know and trust, wasn’t there. Gambol Shroud was missing. The girl pondered in her mind if she could easily re-obtain it, taking note of the words, that anything she wanted, could be hers.. But for now, it was better to secure her surroundings first. If she would have to research how this world worked, exactly, she didn’t want to be caught off guard by Grimms, or whatever monsters this world might hold. Taking a route around the cafe, the feline noted that there was nothing except whiteness around it, with an occasional dot somewhere far away in the distance. As she did so, the girl tested her pockets, she found out her Scroll wasn’t there anymore either.
She had been mapping her surroundings for a perhaps five minutes, before she returned to where she had originally started from; The front of the cafe. Except, that this time something was different. There was someone sitting at one of the tables, hunched over. With haste, Blake ran towards the figure. How could she not recognize the partner she had had for years now, instantaneously.
“Yang? Yang!” she called as she ran, in only a few seconds reaching the other, gently shaking her partner by the shoulders. “Yang? Yang…?” she asked again, a mildly panicked tone starting to settle within her voice. How had she ended up here? Was she even alive? Had her wish to reunite their team brought Yang here as well? “Yang please..” the faunus whispered, wrapping her arms around the other, simply holding her there as she hoped the other would wake up. After all to Blake, Yang was something much more than just a teammate, partner, or even a dear friend.

Omniverse? Rules? Wait wait wait, had she been somehow captured, transported into a different universe? Was this the same that had happened to Ruby and Weiss..? But… Yang..!

Quote:“This is Omnilium. It’s what ties the Omniverse together. Without it, you are nothing. With it, anything you desire can be yours. But you will need more than this. If you desire it enough, you will find it. You will find that using it comes naturally. Just think of what you desire most."

Quote:“You will not be alone in the Omniverse. There are others. Of course, they, too desire Omnilium. Do not fear death. For as long as you interest me, you will be reborn.”
She wouldn’t die in this universe? Instead being reborn? ...Would there be Grimm? Or was this simply a hell of somekind? Alternate universe?

Quote:“That’s all you need to know right now. You’ll figure out the rest soon enough. I’ll be watching … and waiting.”
And so, Blake’s consciousness faded once more, filled with unanswered questions.
