Welcome to the first chapter of the fic well I guess I should explain something here for maybe the first 3 three chapters or so will have time skips between the events RWBY so as of right now this occurs a bit before the first season of RWBY.(btw the short backstories about the characters are in seperate stuff ive written and published so please read them first)

(22th sunday oct)- Rewritten chapter to match the style of the later chapters

1 year after the events of Luna and damson and 2 years after the events of Blood and Onyx.

Damson and Onyx had both garnered a small amount of attention due to their high mission succes rate which Viper would report to Ironwood on the they were sent to mountain glenn because they believe some people were causing ruckus with the guards there."so what was going down again?"Blood asked.

"Blood you need to be remember better, anyway reports say there are two people who mess with patrols and guards for the past month we were sent to find and deal with it."Onyx explained to was also sent on the mission he was just behind Blood and Onyx."anyway they were reported to attack in this area mostly so keep a look out."

Viper warned, the boys nodded and scanned the area with his semblance which he was able to master in controlling for the people on the reports his future sight part of his semblance caught an arrow flying straight to Blood from behind, quickly drawing his weapon he struck and broke an arrow mid flight

"impressive for a group of thugs"a voice ran out from the distance"show yourselves!"Blood called out."they don't need to"Onyx said as he fired a shot with his guns to a building window Blood noticed a moving figure dodging the shot.

"Look come out and we can talk about this peacefully" Onyx said.

"Who said we could trust you?"another voice shouted out a more masculine one and almost immediately Blood,Onyx and Viper were caught in a shockwave from a blow nearby, the three staggered as they dust cleared to reveal a male presumably 18 stand in front of them wearing a black cuirass with a small bevor around his front neck sporting a black long sleeve collared shirt wearing a black glove on one hand and bandages covering the other minus the fingers, sporting Black pants with a belt with small chain hanging from it and wearing black sports shoes, his face was white although appears slightly pale he has a small scar on his cheek he has black short and messy hair.

After that a Shadow which looked like smoke dropped from the sky it dissipated into the form of a young girl about 16 she wore a violet hooded cowl with a face mask covering her lower face, she sported a blue leather vest wearing a violet women shirt with a knee deep violet skirt and she wore violet short boots with blue lining her face is pale and mostly pure and in a non injured condition she had long dark hair which was tied into a ponytail.

"what your gonna fight us head on?"Viper asked."too bad it's three on two we have an advantage"Blood said as he drew his switch blade which were the length of his arms the folded from which was made for medical reasons.

"that's no problem"the guy said as he drew his weapon along with the girl the man carried a halberd axehead on one end and mace head seems the mace head can turn into a LMG when Onyx looked at girl brandished a blade a slightly curved blade with a small gemstone on the hilt which was a dark shade of violet looking at the blade it appeared convertible so Onyx assumed this was the weapon which shot the arrow.

"so..."both groups prepared themselves,Viper pulled out a spear a serrated spear with a long dark green pole-arm the spear head was black like charcoal on the the edges but green and shiny on the centre of it."let's get started!"

The fight begins Blood charges the guy quickly distracting him from Onyx and Viper, the girl approached Onyx and Viper blade drawn and pointed straight at and Onyx attacked her at the same time but the girl dissipated into smoke then suddenly reappears out of nowhere."how did?"Onyx was shocked at charged her but she dodged spun around then slashed him on his side sending him to the ground.

"Viper!"Onyx shouted as he duelled with the girl,Viper was injured but not bleeding badly it seems that he was able to adjust his body enough to only get grazed by the was busy with the guy as he slashed and dodged only to be parried and countered.

"you fight well for a common thug"the guy said as he went for a swing.

"thanks but I ain't no common thug."Blood said as he dodged the blow."oh then are a ringleader or something?"the guy asked."I told you I ain't in league with these guys!"Blood said as he finally cracked through his opponents defences and punched him in the face then grabbed him by the shirt."heh kill me if you want you scum"the guy said as he refused to even glance at Blood.

"I will tell you again I ain't in league with these thugs!"Blood said for the third time.

"oh then what are you?"the guy asked skeptical at Blood's remarks.

"you could say I'm a double agent or a mole if you said.

"you're not faunus?"the guy asked,Blood took of his mask.

"does it look like it?"Blood asked as he let go of the guy.

"no not at all, hell you look like the same age I am."the guy said."yeah does look like it are you 18 by any chance?"Blood nodded as he put his hands on his knees and breathed for a bit."those friend of yours double agents?"The guy asked.

"yeah we got to stop your friend."Blood said"well she's my sister"the guy said."well we got stop them, I haven't asked your name though"Blood said."it's Damson...Damson dusk, you?"Damson asked."Blood proliti"Blood said as he ran.

Onyx was busy trying to protect Viper while defeating the girl who attacked him."the others don't last very long against me...interesting."the girl said as she took a swing across Onyx's face.
"I'll have you know I'm beyond these guys"Onyx said as he ducked.

"oh?what makes you so sure about that?"the girl said as she dodged some blows while retaliating with some of her own."trust if I could ditch these guys any second now I would"Onyx said as he dodged and rolled to the charged the girl but she grabbed him by the arm put a hand on his stomach and threw him over her shoulder.

"What the? That was very refined judo technique"Onyx thought as his back hit the tried to sit up but a sword pointed down his neck."anything to say?"the girl simply glared then the girl raised her sword and was about to strike Onyx until a shout was heard.

"stop!"a voice said."yeah what he said"another Blood and the guy had ran to them.

"Damson what are you talking about?"the girl said."this was a huge misunderstanding turns out these guys are double agents of some kind."the guy said."what make you believe that?"the girl said sheathing her blade."it's true"Viper said as he stood up.

"Viper fangwell hunter under the atlesian military.

"the atlas military?"the guy asked.

"yeah"Viper said.

"ok I believe you, hey you get up"the girl said as she gave a hand to are a great fighter for someone your age"Onyx said.

"thank that guy over there taught me"the girl said as she pointed to the guy beside Blood.

"and you are?"Onyx asked.

"Onyx meet Damson dusk,Damson meet Onyx arakul."Blood introduced them to each other.

"Arakul?"Luna thought to herself."something the problem"Onyx asked."no... It's nothing by the way the names Luna dusk."Luna said."oh my names Onyx my friend over is Blood proliti.

"I never thought it could be true though."Viper said."what's true?"Damson asked."survivors of mount glenn."Viper said.

"What? No no no we didn't survive the mount glenn disaster, we just washed up here a year and a half ago."Damson said."oh I knew it was to good to be true."Viper said. "unfortunately we found no survivors"Luna said.a growl could be heard from the distance.

"it's not safe here we should stay at the hideout for and Damson head out for a building Blood and the rest follow soon.

When they reached the place Damson and Luna holed up in they decided to treat they're fight wounds."so how did you wash up in this place then"Blood asked Damson as he put a cloth on a bruise.

"we were kidnapped you could say that, but we escaped and found ourselves at the outskirts of mount we decided to survive here and find a way back to civilisation"Damson said as he dabbed the punch bruise Blood did to him.

"oh so where do you plan to go?"Blood asked.

"don't know actually, although I always wanted to see Vale, the city I mean"Damson said.

"huh funny coincidence, you see me and Onyx are currently staying there"Blood said.

"and what you're going to ask us to join you?"Damson said."I was just about to ask that, but yeah"Blood said.

"I can talk about this with my sister oh I must have forgot to introduce you to her her name is Luna"Damson then simply decided to see if they had anything in common in the following conversation.

Luna and Onyx were both tending to there wounds,Viper was just finished being rested a bit back."so how did you survive for a year and a half?"Onyx asked.

"well we first started scavenging then went decided to start on the nearby forests for fruit and occasionally caught a animal mostly rabbit though"Luna said as she tended to Onyx's back.

"you know for someone your age you have a very refined sword sk-ahh!"Onyx said and Luna pulled something out of his back then immediately dabbed alcohol on it.

"sorry just found some glass shards on you back."Luna said as she bandaged Onyx's back.

"well anyway you have a very refine sword fighting technique."Onyx said.

"thanks I got from my mom and Damson helped me get experience."Luna said as she cut the gauze roll."so what do you plan to do?"Viper asked."Well we didnt think of an escape plan to the nearest city."Luna said.

"well why don't we take you and your brother in with us,I mean it's not like you would stay here forever would you?"Viper asked.

"no but...you know what i'll take up your offer."Luna agreed as she pulled up viper and walked towards Damson and gestured Damson to come over and Damson stood up walked to his sister.

"what is it Luna?"Damson asked.

"what are we going to do now?"Luna said.

"well we could just hitch a ride to Vale and get a place to stay"Damson suggested.

"yeah well,I they gave me an offer for both."Luna explained."thats good, and besides for 1 year tech cant move forward that much so it shouldn't be that hard to adjust."Damson said.

"okay but how do we find mother?we don't even know her scroll number".Luna complained."we will find a way but for now let's move forward ok?"Damson nodded and Damson nodded back.

after the group had fully recovered after a short while."hey Viper right?"Luna said to viper.

"yes what is it?"Viper said.

"we will be taking up your offer"Luna said Damson nodded at them.

"ok follow us by the way hide your faces this won't easy getting out of and Damson decided to use there cloth bags as face masks which turned out to be not a uncomfortable as it sounded and Onyx lead in front while Viper led Luna and Damson.

"who are they?"a whitefang grunt that was on patrol said.

"the two people that have causing trouble for the past month"Viper explained.

"we have orders to take them to vale."Blood said.

"fine get in."the grunt opened a small lid which showed a ladder."closest way down to the hangar"the grunt explained.

"very well" Viper said as he went down.

"ladder?"Luna said.

"stay quiet and just hang on"Onyx said as Luna held on to him as he climbed climb was not as pleasant for Blood and Damson either."follow me Viper said as he approached a airship.

"well its just an hour or so to vale so just hang on."Viper said as he gestured Onyx and Blood to help Damson and Luna to a seat.

After a short and uneventful trip they landed to Vale

"how do we do this?"Blood asked as he looked around to see more grunts around.

"don't worry we got a second mole in that will drive to the place he was supposed to help us around the city but for this occasion i'm sure he'll let us slip."Viper said as he went to a nearby van."this must be it Viper walked towards the driver's window"wolf in sheep's clothing"Viper said as the driver nodded and took his glasses of."this is the guy, agent Leon"Viper introduced to the and Onyx both introduced themselves and explained the situation.

"okay fine but try not to make too much ruckus in the back."Leon said his voice sounding like he could have cared arriving to the small apartment place they decided to stay in they removed the cloth bags of Luna and Damson.

"would it have killed you to put the bags of when we went in"Luna asked.

"well what we did in there is on a need to know basis"Viper said.

"so just stay here and continue living I guess."Viper said as he left off back with the van.

"well I guess we have to explain this to chuck Blood said as he took off his mask showing his much more mature face he still has red spiky hair which is still messy though much better kept and a bit longer than when he first came here also his face showed a scar on his cheek which looks quite also removed his mask his hair which is grey with a bit of black lines getting in between the grey hair his eyes were almost pure black with no other signs of any other colour. His hair was pretty much the same although it grew a bit longer and was just as well kept as it was when he was younger.

The four went in Blood and Onyx talked to the manager(who is also a double agent here)and was able to hassle another room in question was the one at the end of the hallway next to Blood and onyx's, and Viper's room.

"well you guys can stay here while your here"Onyx said as he opened the room.

"Damson i'm so tired."Luna said as she got in."well at least I haven't forgotten to live like this since we lived like survival experts for At Least a year now.

"well what do we do now?"Luna asked."we'll find out, for now just try to get used to being back like this"Damson said as he went in the toilet."why are you going in there?"Luna asked.

"forgot no bath in like a year"Damson said as he snatched a towel of the closet and went in.

Luna realised this as she looked in the mirror "still as pretty as ever huh"Luna said as she looked at her face to check if there are any wounds or able out a good twenty minutes Damson came out of the toilet and put his clothes on.

"I just realised these are the only clothes we got"Damson said."Luna realised this just as recent and thought on what to suddenly a note slid under the door and it read: you guys need clothes ask onyx tomorrow -Blood.

"well that was kind of him."Damson them went into the toilet herself taking a different towel from the closet.

Damson decided to take a step outside and look around when he saw Blood outside."what are you doing here Blood?"Damson asked."nothing just getting fresh air."Damson noticed a root beer can on Blood.

"only drink actual beer on special occasions"Blood explained."let me have some"Damson tossed a can to Damson then Damson drank some.

"not bad. how hard was it to survive in that hell hole?"Blood asked Damson referring to mountain glenn.

"it was tough for sure I mean with those masked guys and grim everywhere it was hard to traverse the area sometimes, hell we even had to stare death in the face sometimes."Damson said as he rested his back to the wall."sounds harsh"Blood commented."it was tough sometimes but we were able to survive."Damson walked back in the building then Damson followed after.

the morning after

taking up Blood's offer Damson and Luna went to a nearby clothes store."that went quicker than I could imagine"Onyx said as he went out with Luna and Damson Luna decided to wear what she bought a blue tank top with a purple short jacket with a hood wearing the same skirt she normally followed out wearing a black leather jacket with black shirt with black jeans and black leather shoes along with cheap aviators he bought.

"Luna I never bothered to ask but what was in that diary you always carry around?"Damson asked.

"its a diary passed from my mother's mother's and the mothers before."Luna said as she closed the book."why would they pass it on to their daughters for generations?"Damson thought.

"hey do you guys use ammo for your weapon?"Onyx asked as the group passed by a weapon store.

"yeah but we ran out."Damson nodded and went in Both Luna and Damson looked at each other nodded and went in to see some plain weapons and some more unique weapons.

"dust cartridges ,transforming and compounded."Luna though as she looked around then she saw Onyx talking to the man behind the counter.

"hey Luna, Damson come here."Onyx called them over.

"what caliber do you guys use?"Onyx asked as the guy behind the counter pulled out a notepad."I use .50 machine gun the girl uses .22 hornet rifle bullets and arrows"Damson leaned a bit over the counter and said"can the arrow head have thunder dust on them?".the man nodded and went through a small storage door for a few minutes and came out with about 7 clips worth of .50 mg bullets,20 clips of the rifle bullets Luna asked for and about a pack of 50 thunder dust headed arrows.

"you got all of it?"Luna said shocked with a similar expression with Damson.

"this guy has got everything"Onyx said as he pulled out his wallet."1500 lien the man nodded and pulled out the money from his wallet and gave it to the guy."I must say .22 hornets are quite hard to come by these days as far as I know those were most applied at about a good century or more.

"well I got this from my mother"Luna said.

"huh ok I wont dig but don't worry I have ways to keep the supply up"the store owner assured thanked the owner and went out Damson and Onyx following was at the back of the group following silently and thinking he took a glance at Luna and Damson and saw them smeared in blood Onyx blinked and everything looked normal.

"what on Remnant is going on with me."Onyx thought to himself.
