Suggested by Acnologia Prime

This One-Shot takes place during Oreonna's childhood. Or should I say "Kittyhood"! HAHAHA! Hahaha... Ha... ah. Because, uh... because she's a cat? A cat faunu- Forget it. In this universe, not too much needs to be explained. Just know that Neo is going out with her daughter for some ice cream. Because... Neo likes ice cream?

It was yet another lovely day in Remnant. The sun was shining, there wasn't a cloud in the sky, and the sun was shining. Did I mention the sun was shining? Indeed it was an extremely hot day in most of Remnant, more specifically the city of Vale which had gotten the bulk of the heat. Throughout the entire town, people were walking slowly and dreading being outside. Yes indeed for some, this would be an extreme turn off. But for others, it meant business. More specifically in the form of ice cream!

Little six-year-old Oreonna and her mother Neopolitan had gone out to get just that. Even though Oreonna loved acting like her father and helping him out in his bookstore, there was no doubt about it that both her and her mother LOVED ice cream. It wasn't a hard decision when it came down to if they should go or not.

In one of Vale's many, many parks, the two had found several ice-cream vendors scattered about and serving as much ice cream as they could to anyone they could find. Naturally, the park was extremely crowded, but it soon wouldn't be once Neo was finished. Slowly, she pulled out her umbrella and prepared to 'clear the way'. However, her daughter placed a hand on her hip.

"Mommy, you promised," Oreonna reminded her.

Sighing, Neo put away her umbrella and smiled.

"Thank you, mommy," Oreonna grinned "Now, what do you wanna get? There's vanilla, chocolate, nee... um... nee-oh-polly-tan, mint chip... Wow, there really are a lot here! Oooh! Could I have the chocolate one, mommy? I really like chocolate!"

Neo nodded and smiled as she and her daughter approached the shortest line for one of the vendors.

But nothing could prepare them for what happened next.

Just before the two were about to enter the line, another woman took their spot quite rudely. Neo recognized the woman immediately, but it took Oreonna a little while before she could identify the mysterious person. The first thing blatantly obvious was her long, golden yellow hair that looked very well kept and clean. She wore brown shorts and a brown jacket that showed her belly. Around her neck was a pale red scarf, and on her wrists were yellow bands that looked very pointy and probably not fun to touch. She also had a very large chest, but Oreonna never really noticed that all too much.

"Mommy, who is that?" she asked Neo, who was still scowling at the woman. The woman finally turned around with a cocky smile on her face to see who was making the noise behind her. Needless to say, she was just as shocked as Neo. However, she managed to recover faster than the latter.

"Neopolitan, eh?" the woman chuckled "Man, it's been an age, hasn't it been? Didn't you, like, work for the White Fang once? I can still remember the times when we clashed and we kicked each other's asses... So, why'd you leave?"

Both looked down to the black and white haired girl hiding behind Neo's leg.

"...oh," the woman said simply before roaring into laughter "You got pregnant?! Neopolitan was pregnant and I missed every single minute of it?! HAHAHAHA! What a laugh that must have been, carrying around a little kid for nine months! Oooh, oooh, since she's a cat faunus, does that mean you did super-cute cat things through the entire pregnancy, or did you just crave ice cream, forcing the poor sap of a father to go out and get you a specific kind?"

More and more, Neo loathed this woman. Since she no long worked for the White Fang, she was hoping a few of her enemies would forgive her for her actions. But it would seem that even her dreams were too farfetched this time.

"Hahaha... ah... anyway, nice to see you again, Neo," the woman finally got all that out of her system and began acting all buddy-buddy with her long-time rival "And the kid too! I don't believe we've met, you little cutie. The name's Yang. Yang Xiao-Long. And don't you forget it, alright?"

"Um... okay then," Oreonna agreed "I'm Oreonna, and this is my mommy."

"Heh... believe me, kid; your mommy and I go WAY back, don't we Neo?"

No response. And that wasn't just because Neo didn't like talking.

"Haha... yeah... okay, so we MAY have butted head together sometimes, but I think we can both forgive and forget, right?" Yang sheepishly chuckled, causing Neo to become slightly less tense "Yeah, there we go. Just a few simple breaths in and out and-"

Neo pulled out her umbrella again.

"...I can see you're a little tense right now," Yang understood "Hey, I totally understand. Truth is I got a kid as well, okay? I know how much it sucks being preggers, so y'know, I was just joking around! Hahaha! See, it was all just a joke! And clearly you don't care..."

"Mommy, wait!" Oreonna urged her, stopping Neo for a second "I know she took our spot in line, and I know she may have made you mad a long time ago, but maybe she's changed? I mean, maybe you two might be good friends if you just try, okay? And if not that, then buddies? Pals? Anything so you will never fight again?"

"...sorry, baby," Neo finally spoke "I need to get some built-up rage out of my system. Besides, I think Yang here will be more than happy to help me do that. Think of it as... friends bonding over fighting?"

"Smooth," Yang grinned.

"Shut-up, Yang," Neo rolled her eyes and opened her umbrella in the blonde woman's direction "Oreo, sweetie, you better stay back for this one."

Literally everyone in the park all walked back away from the two, taking their ice cream and waiting for the show to begin. The two rivals gave each other one last look before backing up and preparing to attack each other. Yang activated the bands on her wrists which became yellow gloves with gun barrels around them. Neo simply twirled her umbrella around with a smirk, just like the good old days.

"Oh no..." Oreonna sighed.

With that, the two engaged each other in their small battle. Immediately, Yang threw an explosive punch at Neo, which she managed to block with her umbrella. Flicking a switch open on the curved part of her umbrella handle, Neo pointed her weapon at her opponent and fired a few bullets at her, all of which missed.

"Is that the best you got, ice cream?" Yang smirked before dashing to throw yet another punch at Neo, which again she was able to block.

However, taking Yang's taunt as a challenge, she pointed her umbrella down and fired herself up into the air, twirling it around before coming down on the blonde woman as hard as she could. This was when Yang finally got a hit on her, sending her flying back into the crowd.

"Wow, you've gotten pretty old, Neo," Yang chuckled "Remember when I couldn't even get a hit on you? Yeah, those were some pretty crazy times... To be fair though, I was fighting Grimm all day long, so I was pretty tired, so I-"

"Just be quiet and fight me!" Neo shouted as she threw herself into the battle again, this time trying to be more focused. Yang smirked before attempting to kick the woman again, but was shocked to see that Neo had dodged it just like all those years ago. Not once did this make her feel underpowered, however. Instead, Yang began punching and kicking just as fast, and each attempt at hitting her either ended in a dodge or a block from Neo. Finally, the latter grabbed Yang's leg and hoisted herself up over it, kicking her foe right in the face.

"Yeah!" Oreonna had now found enjoyment in watching her mom kick ass "Kick her butt, mommy!"

"Excuse me, child? Who are those two women fighting?" spoke an unfamiliar voice to her. She turned around and saw a woman around Yang's age with a black midriff tank top and white pants looking concerned about the battle at hand. She had long black hair and a pair of cute black cat ears atop her head, as well as piercing yet surprisingly calming orange eyes.

"Oh, um... sorry if I'm in your way, miss," Oreonna politely said "It's just that my mommy and miss Yang wanted to fight each other, so they did it here. I'm just watching from over here so I don't get hurt."

"Your mother is... Neopolitan?" the woman questioned "Curious. But I suppose there are far more important matters right now, such as stopping this fight at once."

The woman pulled out a small handgun with a blade on it and fired into the air, gaining everyone's attention, especially Yang's. They all looked over to see the unamused face of the faunus woman. Yang gulped, knowing exactly what was coming next.

"Heh heh... Hey, Blake! How's it hanging?" Yang sheepishly laughed, trying to ease the situation a bit.

Blake's expression showed it clearly wasn't working.

"Okay, so I can see you're really mad at me right now, so... I'll just... um..." Yang was at a loss for words "...Blake, it's not like anyone got hurt, right? It was just a friendly battle between two old rivals and... um..."

"Yang, how many times have I told you that you have a baby to take care of?" Blake crossly stated, causing everyone to gasp "You can't just leave the poor thing alone at home while you get groceries and whatever else you may feel like doing."

"Relax, I have Ruby over to take care of her," Yang waved her hand to try and relieve her best friend.

"And that's somehow better?" Blake gave the dead truth.

"...yeah, fair point," Yang sighed.

"C'mon, Yang," Blake went over and began dragging her friend back to her house "We need to educate you how to properly take care of and raise a child. And Neo, thank you for keeping her distracted long enough so I could find her."

Neo bowed before being joined by her daughter, who waved the two farewell. Neo then put away her umbrella and sighed.

"Mommy! You were so cool!" Oreonna's eyes lit up like Christmas lights "I mean, I know I said you two shouldn't fight before, but you were all like 'Bam!', and Yang was all like 'Pow!', and when you jumped over her leg and kicked her in the face! That was really cool! You have to teach me how to do that!"

"...um, maybe another time, sweetie," Neo rubbed her daughter's head and tickled her ears a bit "But now, since all the lines are gone, do you want to get some ice cream? You know mommy certainly would."

"Of course!" Oreonna grinned gleefully as the two approached one of the ice cream vendors and got themselves a well-deserved frozen treat each.
