A/N RWBY characters don't belong to me. Wilma and Gareth do. Yada yadah. Usual disclaimer every fanfiction writer has to do. Well, on with the story!

The Deathstalker was aiming its stinger at the eight of them. Its pinchers pinching the air menacingly. Team RWBY and Team JNPR were getting ready to fight it but out of the blue, something fell from the sky and landed on the Deathstalker's back.

"What was that!" Yang exclaimed as all of them held their ground except for Jaune, who got tossed into a tree from the sudden shock wave.
"Oof!"

When the dust settled, Ruby stepped closer to the Deathstalker. While Pyrrha helped get Jaune back to his feet. Ruby gasped. It was the unconscious form of a human. Before Ruby could pick up the figure, Yang backed into her.

"Uh, Ruby, I think we should get that person out of here quickly. There's a pack of beowolves surrounding us. "

True enough, the pack of beowolves slowly encircled them. They readied their weapons as the beowolves snarled at them. One of the beowolf was about to pounce on Rin but he managed to dispatch it. The rest of the gang quickly made short work of the beowolves. When the fight was over, the wasted bodies of the beowolves decorated the Emerald forest. Black among the green.

Ruby's stomach grumbled. She looked at the rest sheepishly. "Guess it's time to head back to Beacon. But before that, we need to bring that person back to Beacon. The Emerald forest is a dangerous place after all. " Ruby motioned to Yang while she supported one side of the figure with her shoulders. They both dragged the figure back to the meeting point at a clearing where there were two Bullheads waiting for them. Team RWBY bade farewell to team JNPR as they boarded their respective transport back. " See ya guys back at Beacon!" Nora waved and shouted. Rin sighed at Nora's usual antics.

During the entire fight, Gareth hid in the trees. Understanding that he couldn't be seen. For now until she was better. He flew from his perch as he shadowed the people entering the weird looking bird. "Wilma will know what it is. " He thought to himself as he followed it from a safe distance.

Meanwhile, in the Bullhead, Wilma slowly regained her consciousness. Groaning in pain, she tried to sit up but Ruby held her down gently. Her hood slipped off her head while her caramel coloured hair was dishevelled. Ruby gave a gasp of surprised. Blake looked up from her book and her eyes widened.

"Must be one of those careless Faunus who got lost. " Weiss scoffed as she realised that there was a Faunus in her midst. Blake narrowed her eyes at Weiss. "What did I say? It's not like you're one of them right?" Blake got up from her seat but Ruby managed to stop her. She looked at Ruby hesitantly but complied. Blake grumbled under her breath and continued reading her book.

"Ugh...where am I? Am I dead?" Wilma scratched her head as she spoke. Her eyes darting from side to side. "And who are you people?" Wilma narrowed her eyes. Ruby quickly introduced everyone.

"...and that person there is my sister, well half-sister, Yang. While over there is the ice queen Weiss Schnee. "

"Hey! I'm not an ice queen! I'm n-nice alright. I just don't feel like being nice all the time. "

Yang chuckled at Weiss's remark while Blake rolled her eyes. After a few minutes later, the pilot made an announcement.

"All right ladies! We're almost there. Get ready for landing. "

"Great! I can't wait to go to the library!" Weiss exclaimed.

"Lunch time first!" Ruby rebutted. "All right, all right. We eat lunch first. " Weiss sighed. Ruby pumped her fists into the air. Wilma agreed. She was quite famished and her mana was low too.
