Summary/disclaimer: Time another chapter of Queen of Flames. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth do.
(City of Vale, Beacon Academy.)
Midas loaded a magazine into Rex Auream as he sat in his pjs, he had been up for an hour and a half and had yet to get much more than 2 hours' worth of sleep.
He sighed as he cracked his neck and patted his weapon as he placed the handgun on his sleeping bag as he turned to see Cinder in a red night gown walking into the room as he left the room and walked to the window in another room.
"I still feel like Ozpin is hiding something from me… What could he be hiding and why? I am not going to attack anyone important… Nor do I plan on destroying the school… Hmm, I guess my dad and my reputation put everyone on edge… Not that I blame them… If it wasn't for him, I'd probably be having a normal life… Damn it dad…"
Midas said as he left the room, unaware Cinder had heard him.
"Yes, just like my sister, Midas… If only you knew… Blasted Ember…"
Cinder muttered as she followed Midas, she could guess that Midas was unaware of where she was, if he was, he wouldn't have turned to face her.
"I really should be sleeping but I can't… Why? Is it because I'm too strung up on what's happening back at home? No, that's dad business, it doesn't worry me… The thugs in the alley? No, they were just thugs from what I've heard… Then again, Glynda doesn't seem to be super open on details for me… No, I doubt it that…. Damn it, I wish I knew."
Midas cursed as he turned to see Cinder behind him as he rolled his eyes.
"Do you plan on following me as long as I am in Vale? I honestly don't know what your obsession is with me… Besides my past and powers… Which is what everyone seems to care about me for… So, you going to talk, Cinder? Or should I just be on my way with you walking behind me until tomorrow comes and the test Ozpin has started for us occurs, hmm?"
Midas said as he started to walk away before Cinder spoke up, stopping Midas as he turned to face her.
"Ozpin is hiding something… But he will tell you in time and second, that isn't why I'm interested in you… It's how similar you are with me.… Only instead of your father, it's my sister… She's a monster… A power-hungry monster."
Cinder said as Midas hummed as he started to walk away before pausing at the door.
"My father isn't a monster… Just a bad person, Cinder… And if you ever find out why Ozpin doesn't want to tell me everything… You tell me… For now, I'm going to find something to do… It seems everything in the world doesn't want me to sleep… And it's getting annoying, I really want to sleep at the moment."
Midas said as he walked out the door as Cinder groaned and turned to walk away, she had a few calls to make at the moment, one of which was to someone important if she was going to do what she had to do.
"Roman? Its Cinder, I know you're in Beacon… I need you and Neo to help me… I'll pay you if you want the money…. If not, that's fine… Just text me back when you get this call."
Cinder said as she pulled out her scroll as she made a call on it as she started to walk towards the dorms once again.
(Upper Corridors.)
Midas continued to aimlessly wonder the halls, he brushed off his shoulder as he continued to walk before stopping at a door which seemed to be locked at the moment as he paused and decided to go back to his room.
"I wonder why the door there is locked… Eh, I'm sure Ozpin has his reasons… I really need to get some sleep, I'm talking to myself again… Lovely…"
Midas said to himself as he walked back to his dorm, he found everyone else passed out and his sleeping bag as pristine as he had left it. He dusted off his pillow which he hadn't used for 2 weeks ago when he had started to sleep on the airship that had brought him to Vale.
He laid down and started to sleep, finally tired out enough to fall asleep without his body offering resistance to him.
He didn't notice Ozpin walk in as he stood at the window and turned to glare at Midas as he sighed.
"Poor boy… Completely unaware of the role he will play in the coming war… I hope he will be ready… No, me and Glynda will make sure he is ready, I have to be… I can't fail his mother…"
Ozpin said as he turned and walked out of the room as Midas continued to sleep.
