Volume 3, Chapter 1

The Last Mission

All righty here it is, volume 3! First of all I want to thank the Reddit user who drew the cover picture for doing so. This volume is going to the longest yet, around 36 chapters! It's starts off pretty slow and peaceful, as the opening will make evident, but this is the most action packed volume yet once things really get rolling. This chapter dives straight into some action however, so enjoy!

Night. The city of Vacuo. The docks. Members of the White Fang, a terrorist group of Faunas, worked hard loading crates into airships. Crates full of dust, energy for weapons. Roman Torchwick, their leader, walked among them. He inspected the crates as they boarded, kept his men in line.

A metal, mechanical hand grabbed the edge of a nearby warehouse roof and the connecting robot arm pulled its user up. Then Jim looked down a the dock, lifting his hat up away from his eyes, and flexing the joint of his robot arm. The mechanical limb had been added shortly after he had left on his mission with the rest of his team. It was comprised of steel plates, cogs and wires that connected to his nerves where his arm had been severed.

A hand on his shoulder, he looked round, saw the team leader beside him. "What are they up to?" Connor asked, his eyesight shoddy thanks to his eyepatch, which hid a skin covered eye socket.

"Looks like they're smuggling dust, just as usual." Jim replied, slightly annoyed at the lack of unusual activity. "Their leaders here though, might get some information out of him."

"I hope so." Kane said, kneeling down on the other side of Jim. "I'd hate to go back to Beacon with nothing to show for our 3 month long mission."

"I'm sure he'll have some sort of information." Mars chipped in from behind the three, getting a closer look with his mind power semblance. "Either way, I'm glad to be headed back after this operation. We've been out here way too long."

There was then a moment of short silence while the four of them observed the gang loading crates, then Jim spoke. "So how are gonna go about this?"

"You baboons are too slow! We should've been out of here ten minutes ago!" Roman Torchwick yelled to his masked soldiers. "I swear if Cinder gets angry at me about this, all of you are gonna be the ones getting punished, I'll make sure of it." He finished that scolding by slamming his cane down the ground, making a point.

Suddenly a scream was heard from behind a shipping crate and a Faunus soldier came flying out from behind it, knocked out cold. "Ugh...what now?" Roman groaned, and began to walk towards the crate to investigate. "Is that you Red? Come on out!"

As he walked, Roman didn't see the small green mark on the floor, not until he stepped on it and a translucent green dome formed around him. "Hey, baboons!" He cried. "Help me, I'm under attack!"

Despite the insult, Roman's men moved to help him on his command, but were blocked by two people in cloaks dropping down in front of them.

Flexing his robot hand, Connor said, "Oh well would you look at that, a big group of White Fang members. You know I do hate terrorists, don't you Kane?"

Cracking his knuckles menacingly, Kane answered, "Let's teach them a lesson."

"Agreed." Connor concurred, and the two them held their hands out next to each other. Kane's hand became enveloped in black clouds and Connors hand metal hand shined bright with light. Next the two of them held out their hands in front of them and shot out black clouds and light, scattering the White Fang members.

Separating from his side by side stance with Kane, Connor shot forward and punched down a Faunus before he could fire his energy rifle. He then ducked under a shot, stood up and blocked another shot with the light from his metal hand, and fired a bolt of light towards the one who had shot at him. He then concentrated the light in his hands and punched a Faunus that was the first in a large group, knocking down the entire group of them with the power of his punch.

Ignoring Connors side of the battle, Kane walked forward towards a group of White Fang members with red curved swords. One stepped forward to challenge him, had their attack parried by Kane's bare fist, and was then punched in the face and went down. The rest of the sword wielding group started to look uncertain, but Kane continued walk forward resisting the urge to whip out his scythe and kill them all.

As Kane came closer, one of the group raised his blade up into the air and chanted, trying to motivate his peers. Despite looking unsure of it himself, his fellow White Fang members followed his rally and raised their swords in the air above their heads, then ran at Kane.

Completely unfazed by the assault, Kane held a hand out in front of him and summoned black clouds up from the ground. The grounds grew into tendrils which lifted the enemies up into the air and suspended them there. After that Kane looked across to see Connor knocking out the last one on his side and completely ignoring the enemies that were struggling uselessly to free themselves from the black clouds, walked over to him.

Meanwhile, Roman was still stuck inside the small green dome that Mars had cleverly trapped him in. He and Jim walked up and looked into the dome, ready to start interrogating him. Roman was having none of hit however and aimed his cane at the ground, then fired off a dust bullet which created a small explosion inside the dome. The smoke created by the blast distracted Mars and the dome disappeared, letting Roman free.

Mars instantly started throwing punches towards their target, who blocked the attacks with his cane. Knowing he wouldn't beat him with fists alone, so he used his semblance to summon up a large green fist behind Roman and punched at him with it. Roman quickly turned and blocked the fist with his cane, then tried to push it away. While he struggled, Jim ran up and hit him with his metal arm, sending him sliding across the ground.

Roman groaned and stood up, then reached into his white jacket and took out a small remote control. "End of the line, boys!" He cried as he pressed a button on the remote. On his command, an enormous military robot came running out of a nearby warehouse, having smashed through the door. Roman climbed up its frame and into the cockpit, then fiddled with some controls to equip it with a sword and energy blaster. "Time to take out the trash." He muttered.

As the robot swung its sword towards Mars, Jim ran in front and punched with his robot hand, his semblance giving him enough strength to hold back the blade with his sword alone. "Kane, Connor! We need backup!"

Forgetting about the enemies that were now laying on the ground unconscious, Connor and Kane rushed over to help. As Jim grabbed the sword with two hands and flung the ginormous war machine towards his two teammates, Connor and Kane took out their katana and scythes and began hacking and slashing at the steel, having no effect but to stagger the goliath. The robot next swung downwards with its oversized sword, and Connor countered by charging his aura into his own weapon and turning it into a massive cleaver of light energy, which he used to block the swing. He then repelled the robots sword and swung his own massive weapon, cutting through the metal and severing its sword arm.

After that, the other arm with the energy blaster aimed at Connor and shot a blast of dust energy at him, knocking him back as Kane charged forward. He jumped up to the cockpit and smashed a hand through the thick glass window, trying to grab and pull out Roman. Unfortunately, a rocket launcher opened up on the shoulder and shot Kane off before he could reach.

Just as the robot aimed another shot of its energy blaster, it's arm was suddenly dragged down and locked in place, and it legs immobilised. Connor and Kane looked over to see Mars using his telekinetic semblance to hold the robot still. "Now! Use the Darklight Explosion combo!" He yelled.

Knowing exactly what the codeword meant, Jim grabbed Kane and Connor from behind by the collars and threw them high into the air. The two of them then summoned up golden light and black clouds whilst in midair and combined them together, forming a black cloud ball with brilliant light shining through the cracks. As the two fell towards the helpless Roman and his robot, they yelled out the code name of their attack, "Darklight Explosion!"

Just as the name suggested, the robot exploded with dark and light as the two of them hit it. Roman was thrown from the wreckage, bruised and battered, but still able to get up. "I just had that thing cleaned." He joked to himself, making himself laugh inside a little. He stopped laughing however, when Connor put his shotgun to the side of his face, and the rest of the team gathered around him.

"Damien, leader of the Outlaws. Where is he?" Connor demanded, poking Romans bowler hat with his gun to show he was serious.

"How should I know?" Roman scowled back, not the slightest bit interested in leaking information just because he's been beaten.

Roman bit his tongue as he felt the blade of Kane's scythe near his neck from behind. "Don't mess us around, we know you've been in contact with him recently, being fellow criminals and all."

Roman scowled again and realised to he didn't really care all that much about Damien to risk his own life, then answered, "He's headed south."

"That's in the direction of Beacon." Mars noted.

Connor looked at Roman one last time, decided he wasn't going to get anymore information out of him, and moved his shotgun away. Kane also moved away his scythe and Roman relaxed, letting out a breath. "It's not in our jurisdiction to arrest you, so for now you're free to go." Connor told him and then turned to look at his teammates. "As for us...I guess we're going back to Beacon."
