Alright guys we've finally made it to the last story for RWBY monthe albeit a bit late. After this the four of us are going to be taking the week off, when we come back it's back to a minimum of three thousand words per me and Kate are probably the only ones going to be updating stories due to Ashe going through a depression right now and her brother focusing on trying to get her out of it. Anyway enjoy the story.
Trailer: The Horsemans Bar
Winter Schnee sighed as she finished filling her last report for General Ironwood. She had been running herself ragged for the past couple of weeks with missions and it was starting to show. Her eyes now had heavy bags under them and she would often nod off on Bullheads.
She needed a break.
The white haired girl smiled as she knew exactly where to go. Standing up she proceeded to walk out of her office and towards the hangar, where her personal ship was stationed.
(Nighttime Vale.)
Winter walked along the streets of Vale her head on a swivel to make sure she wasn't being followed. The place she was going to expected complete secrecy from its customers as per instructions from the owner, only she and three others actually knew why. Approaching her destination Winter sighed as she wondered what the general would say if he found out that she chose a bar of all places to spend her downtime.
The Horsemans Bar. We serve anyone or anything, includes Huntsman, mercenaries, criminals and the insane. That was their slogan and they made good on it as the owner did indeed serve Huntsman, mercenaries, criminals and the insane.
When she had first discovered this place she had thought nothing of it, the outside of the bar looking like any other but when she entered she was introduced to a whole new world.
The bar was much, much bigger on the inside. She didn't know how but along with the regular accommodations a bar should have it had a second floor for gambling, multiple game rooms, slot machines, a third floor where mini concerts were hosted and a fourth floor for settling disputes all handled by a blonde haired boy and a green haired girl.
It took some time before she warmed up to the conditions of the bar and the strange aura its blonde owner had. But in time she slowly learned to be herself, to lose herself in the friends she had made here, to forget about her family and obligations.
To let go.
And that's exactly what she did.
"GUESS WHO'S BACK BITCHES!" The white haired girl yelled as she kicked open the door.
The patrons in the bar tensed for a second before cheering as they recognized who had entered.
"WELCOME BACK WINTER!" They all yelled as Atlas specialist walked towards the bar and sat on a stool.
"Bout' time you came back, I was starting to get worried I'd lost one of my best customers."
Winter smirked as she took in the appearance of the bars owner/bartender. He was young, seventeen if she remembered correctly, ruffled blonde hair slightly covered his blue eyes as he scratched the scar on his cheek that reached under his left eye. A habit he said to have picked up before he opened his establishment. He wore regular bartending clothes and, besides the gauntlet on his left hand, seemed to be nothing more than a normal civilian but Winter knew better. She had seen first-hand how dangerous he could be with those weapons of his.
'Speaking of which.' Winter thought as she looked above the boys head to the four weapons on display.
The first weapon was a large black and gray two handed sword with what appeared to be wailing faces on it along with an enormous scythe. The scythes blade was a hideous thing, jagged and crafted like the wing of some great beast. Both blades sat in a cross position above the many bottles of alcohol behind the boy.
'Those weapons are as scary as ever.' Winter thought as she continued to admire the blades.
'Although.' She turned her gaze to the two pistols around the boys waist, a black four barreled pistol and a white revolver style pistol. 'It's Mercy and Redemption you really got to watch out for, those things pack a punch.'
"You gonna keep sitting there starin' at my crotch or are you going to drink the alcohol I poured ye'?"
Winter blinked as she looked at the counter. Indeed her friend had poured her a drink, chuckling she picked it up and drowned it in one go.
"Don't be such a dick Jaune." She said with the boy chuckling at her response. "And what are you a pirate? What's with the 'ye'?"
"What can't I guy have some fun?" The now named Jaune said as he began to clean a glass. "So how you been Winter, ole' Ironwood still have ya on a tight leash?"
Winter groaned. "You have no idea, he's been running me ragged these back couple of weeks."
Jaune let out a laugh. "You really are a dog on a leash!"
Winter growled at him. "Fuck you."
The both of the then turned to second floor as cheers erupted from the gambling ring as a red haired silver eyed girl, wearing red hood collected various amounts of money from her opponent as a black haired women with red eyes stood over her laughing at the girls opponent.
"Looks like Ruby won again." Jaune said. "That's her five hundredth win since she started coming here."
"Damn! That girl can gamble."
"You can say that again." A voice said causing Winter to turn to meet the gaze of a red eyed girl.
"Hey Emerald good to see you. How about we celebrate her win with another glass of, eh bartender." Winter said getting a smirk from the boy as the screen goes black.
"Whatever you say."
When all your mates have come around, to the usual place we all hang out.
The screen shows an image of team JRREW (Drew) with Winter, Raven, Emerald and Ruby sitting down around a table along with Jaune who was standing up.
Again it seems tonight is the night.
The camera focuses on a smirking Ruby and Emerald.
An unplanned festival has begun. (Wow yeah!)
The screen switches over to a smirking Winter and Raven before the four girls stood up before they along with Jaune start to run at the camera.
That rhythm starts to stir up the crowd, my calmness has been stolen from me.
The camera changes to show a female version of Jaune with her hair in a ponytail with a whip in her hand before zooming out to show the rest of JNPR.

We get a close up of each team member as they fall before the camera starts to pan down showing the various criminals and mercenaries that frequented the bar including Torchwick and Neo.
No, no no no no, I don't want to go home ooh ooh were dancing all night!
The camera quickly pans to the right to reval the many teams and teachers at Beacon including RWBY, JNPR, CRDL and CFVY.
