A/N Welcome to Grim's Darkness sequel to Grim's child. This starts at the beginning of RWBY. I look forward to seeing what you guys think.

Wolf's POV

Against Ozpin's direct orders he was out wandering the city. Ozpin had been cracking down on his freedom since school started in two weeks. It was a good thing he could sneak off campus as he pleased. He just hated going behind the man's back. They had been through so much together.

The old dust shop called From Dust to Dawn was one of his favorite hideaways. The old man running the shop allowed him to hide there unless Ozpin came himself. This allowed the boy peace away from Goodwitch he normally didn't receive. The old man gave him a silent greeting and a smile.

He went to his usual spot to listen to music that was hidden in the back of the store. To his surprise there was a girl there. She was short and in red and black clothes. If he was right it was Qrow's niece Ruby Rose. He saw the tale tale weapon that was only for those who studied under Qrow.

He tapped her on the shoulder and turned his head to the music player in question. She nodded to say he could. He picked up a pair of headphones and plugged them in. The music was so loud that they didn't hear when the store was being robbed.

Their heads shot up when two men tapped them on the shoulder. They pulled off their headphones. Wolf asked raising an eyebrow," Yes?"

The men pulled out a blood red swords and pointed them at them. One said," Alright kids put your hands in the air."

He looked at Ruby and she gave a nod. He asked," Are you robbing us?"

The man said exasperated," Yes."

Wolf and Ruby grinned like a pair of foxes. They said together," Oh..."

Wolf hit the man on the left in the face. The would be robber stumbled back a moment and Wolf kicked him in the chest. That sent him flying into a nearby wall. He had to duck as the second man went flying through the window with Ruby right behind him. Ignoring the others in the shop Wolf stuck his head through the window.

Ruby stood and drew her scythe. It was similar to the one Qrow used. It didn't seem though to have a sword form. Likely it's secondary form was that of a sniper. He was actually fairly impressed with her scythe. While it wasn't his style he could tell it was well made. Much like her mentors with her own style. She truly deserved the title of Qrow's student. He only hoped that Qrow didn't pass on some of his more crazy habits. Like drinking his weight in alcohol.

A man in a ridiculous white suit and black hat said glaring at him and Ruby," Well get them."

Wolf grinned viciously as he drew his sword. He immediately engaged two of the men holding swords. Their blades were weak and feeble compared to his. Their technique was no better than that of an average second year student at Signal. Too bad for them he had been trained by Qrow Branwen and Ozpin.

He had knocked his opponents out of the window and they were unconscious before they hit the ground. He moved outside to aid Qrow's niece only to find she didn't need it. Several of the men lay strewn out on the ground. He couldnt fight the grin that formed on his face. She was definitely skilled. He turned his attention to the red haired idiot that seemed to be in charge of them.

The man had walked out of the shop and said looking at his henchmen," You were worth every cent. Truly you were."

He turned his gaze to the two children and said," Well red, wolf boy, we can say this has been an eventful evening but this, is where we part ways."

Immediately Wolf recognized the fire dust crystal as it was thrown at Ruby. He jumped forward as if to protect her but she used her scythe to block the blast. He turned to attack the red haired bastard only to find him gone. Shit! Where did he go?

He turned around spying the man running off to the rooftops. He barely heard Ruby say as he ran off to catchup with the would be robber," Are you fine if we go after him?"

He didn't need permission he was a hound. He had the feeling there was something much larger at play than this one robbery. He would get to the bottom of it if it killed him.

Ozpin's POV

Wolf should have been back by now. Unless the boy disobeyed him and was in town. Again... That at this point seemed highly likely. Wolf wasn't known for his obedience to anyone. Not even him. The boy had become more rebellious since spending most of his time in Remnant.

He had let the young man have a little more freedom since discovering that he was dying. The boy's inner Grim was slowly taking over him and there was nothing he could do. Ozpin was only his secondary huntsman. To slow the progression they needed to find his primary. That was easier said than done.

He was surprised when an alert sounded at his desk. He looked at it carefully recognizing the alert. Wolf had drawn his sword. He had an alert on the boy's sheath so that way if he was in trouble Ozpin would know. Why would the boy draw his sword inside town?

He sighed as he sent the coordinates to Glynda who was patrolling the town. He looked out over the city worry filling him.

Wolf's POV

They reached the top of the building cornering Torchwic. He growled angrily," Stop."

The man growled barely able to hear even with his hypersensitive hearing," Persistent."

An airship appeared behind the man sending a powerful airshock save wave at them. The man jumped onto the ship while they were distracted.

He pulled out a fire dust crystal and said," End of the line kiddies."

He threw the crystal at them. Wolf threw himself in front of Ruby. When it should have exploded he felt nothing. Looking up he saw Glynda. Damn he was in trouble, now.

She glared at him but turned her attention back to the fight at hand. He drew his sword in its basic form. To most it would have seemed to be a basic sword. Hidden in its hilt was a shotgun. In the sheath he could make the blade become a broadsword.

He took up a familiar stance next to Glynda. Ruby was stunned for a moment but quickly recovered. Wolf tried to jump up on the ship as Glynda covered him. Instead of it being Torchwic it was a girl in a red dress. The dress glowed gold with dust power. As he was about to attack her a flame hit him in the chest.

It knocked him back in the building and he skidded against it. The attack had knocked the breath out of him. It set his Grim blood alight. He could feel the urge to take his wolf form. It was stronger than ever. He sat frozen trying to get his Grim back under control.

Ruby Rose kept the girl occupied by attacking her with her sniper. He winced as he sat up. The fight didn't last long though. On the ground glyphs of fire appeared. It wasn't like anything he ever seen before.

He tried to gain his feet to get away from it. The pain was excruciating as he was barely able to gain his feet. He would never get away in time. He felt something yank him off his feet and to safety. Looking up he realized that Glynda used her semblance to pull him and Ruby out of the way.

He couldn't regain his feet. The pain from his Grim blood was excruciating. He couldn't push it back down. The danger was too great to allow himself to lose control here. He would be a danger to everyone.

Glynda touched his shoulder causing him to jump in fright. He looked at her while her eyes radiated calm. Ruby looked between them excitedly.

She said happily oblivious to the rising tensions," Your a huntress. Can I have your autograph?"

He gave a small snort of amusement at that. Glynda helped him to his feet gingerly. She then turned to glare at the girl. She led them to one of the stations. He knew that she wouldn't let him go anywhere without Ozpin. Who most likely would want to talk to Ruby. All they could do for the moment was wait for him to arrive.

Ozpin's POV

He sat in his office listening to Qrow's report. The dark haired man had little new information on the one who attacked Amber. His heart wasn't in it though. His thoughts were stuck on the young hound he called his. Wolf had been acting out more and more often. To be honest he wondered if the boy would make it to finding his primary huntsman.

Qrow said snapping the older man from his thoughts," About Wolf... Oz... I think he should go with me to visit the Tribe."

Shock and anger filled the old huntsman as he said," No absolutely not. Wolf cannot go to the Tribe."

Qrow said calmly," Ozpin if we don't do something there won't be a boy there to save. The Tribe can at least help slow the blood's progression and buy us time."

He knew realistically the man was right. The Tribe could teach Wolf a semblance of control. Could help him slow the progression until they found his primary huntsman. What would come back though?

They had gotten lucky with Qrow. The man's stubborn streak had kept his mind sane. Despite his need to drink excessive amounts of alcohol. Many were not that lucky. Raven his twin sister was more on the side of darkness. She ran with a band of thieves and bandits.

No he couldn't in consciousness let Wolf go to them. By the look of Qrow's face he knew exactly what he was thinking. The man didn't like it any more than he did. There was not much time for them to do a search. That and Wolf would fight them every step of the way. The council of Vale was trying to remove him from the position as headmaster. Only thing stopping them was Wolf. As long as he was the boy's only huntsman them they couldn't put him back on active duty.

Qrow was going to say something else but was interrupted by a beep on Ozpin's scroll. It was Glynda she was in one of the stations. She looked tired and like she had been in a fight. Wolf knew better than to fight with her so what happened?

She said," Headmaster. Wolf is here as is someone else. I'll send you the video of the fight. Wolf did have a valid reason for drawing his sword."

He said to Qrow," We will finish this conversation another time."

Once he disconnected the call to Qrow he pulled up the fight. He watched in surprise as Wolf and Ruby Rose Qrow's niece fought side by side. It was more fluid then even when the two of them fought side by side. Could Qrow's niece be the one they were looking for? Only one way to find out.

He said to Glynda," Hold them there. I wish to speak with miss Rose."
