Prolog: The Storm
"The storms winds are breaking records and windows authority's recommend."
Ruby reached down and turned off the TV. She stood up and walked to her bed. She looked out the window at the emerald forest hopeing that the storm would let up soon. As she turned around to lay down an explosion went of in the emerald forest shattering all the windows at beacon. Shattered glass flew into Ruby's face cutting her she fell down. As she stood up she saw a large cloud of smoke rising from the forest. She grabbed Crescent rose and ran to the forest. The rest of team RWBY close her heels.
Three hours and a dimension earlier...
"This is team WHITE checking in we are starting the assault on the research lab."
"You have the green light begin assault. Over watch out."
Team WHITE repealed off the cliff to the lab. The covenant had captured the lab three weeks back. Team WHITE was sent in to destroy the base and any sensitive material. Team WHITE consisted of Wit 153, Henry 190, Isabel 083, Timothy 382, and
Eric 115. They are some of the only remaining spartan twos.
The lab was a black list project it wasn't officially on the books this was a black op mission. The lab was developing a new slipspace drive. If the covenant make it work they will be able to jump from here to earth in two minutes. The lab was mostly empty, the only room with any covenant has the test lab which had the prototype. Team WHITE cleared the room relatively fast.
"Eric and Henry clear all the data from the computers, Isabel and Eric your with me we are setting charges all over the prototype."
Four indicator lights blinked on his HUD as a yes.
Half an hour later...
"I'm setting the last charge" Eric sed not two seconds later his rope snapped sending him falling twenty feet into a terminal. As he stood up an automated voice announced something unsettling.
"Jericho drive auto start up ten seconds till slipspace jump."
"That's not good" Eric sed as the drive started the glow a strange blue.
"Five seconds"
"Run!" Wit yelled
They got ten yards before the entire lab, jump drive, and Team WHITE disappeared from existence.
Current time...
Team RWBY came across a thousand meter wide clearing. At the center there was what looked like a destroyed building. As they walked through the rubble they found five armor clad body's berried under ruined walls. The storm was clearing up. Ruby called Juane to have an airship come with medical staff to help the people. As the air ship approached Team JNPR and Team CFVY jumped out and helped get the bodies out of the rubble. They loaded them on to the airships and search for anyone else.
