Chapter Two is out.
As before, I do not own summoners war or RWBY.

"So we saved it. Now what?" Blake asks.
Weiss answers, "We take it to Professor Ozpin, of course. He will be very interested in this discovery."
Yang pokes Weiss in the side and says, "Still hoping for some extra credit, huh?"
Weiss doesn't even bother answering; remembering the last time the subject came up, she steels herself for ruby's inevitable response.
Right on cue: "Why would you even ask that? This is Weiss we're talking about; of COURSE she's still hoping for extra credit!"
Weiss just sighs and starts walking back towards beacon. Then a comment from Blake stops her cold: "So how are we going to get it to follow us back?"
The team pauses to consider it, until Ruby notices something: "It's staring at me!" she whispers.
Everyone looks to see that this is true; the creature is sitting a few feet from Ruby and staring at her.
Ruby, starting to get more than a little creeped out by the creature's stare, steps out of view behind a tree. The creature cocks its head as if confused, then gets up and walks over to the tree before poking its head around the edge. Ruby dashes over to another tree and the creature cocks its head the other way before walking over to Ruby's new hiding spot. This continues for a few moments before Blake comments, "If it's going to follow you around, then maybe if you just walk back to beacon, it will follow you there."
"But that stare's really creeping me out!" Ruby complains as she hides behind yet another tree.
After a bit more arguing (and a promise of cookies from Yang), the group starts walking back to beacon, the creature following behind.
::::::::::::
'Great. Just frickin' great.'
Gamir was in an unknown location, filled with seemingly countless enemies, and his only hope of getting home was four female creatures that spoke a language he didn't recognize.
'Well, guess I should settle in for the long haul, because there is no way I'm getting home any time soon' he thought as he followed them. He'd heard them talking, seemingly about him, while he'd been examining the red one to try and glean any possible tidbits of information about where he now was. The creature had started acting afraid of him, despite the fact that he couldn't hurt her if he tried, and had repeatedly tried to hide from him.
'At least we're going somewhere now. As long as we're moving, I'm getting closer to finding a way home. Hopefully.' He noticed the trees starting to thin and hoped that that meant they were getting close to the extraction point where the group would go back to their island. Then the trees ended.
'…'
'Well, if it wasn't official before, it's official now. I am completely, and UTTERLY, lost.'
They'd walked out of the trees, and come within view of a city. On the surface. Last time he checked, Gamir had been given the impression that the only surviving vestiges of civilization were on the floating islands that everybody lived on. You could occasionally find ruins on the surface, but they were always just that: ruins. Empty and falling apart. This was anything but a ruin.
The group of creatures turned and walked towards a tower in the distance, seemingly not part of the city.
'That must be where their summoner lives. Kind of odd that it's on the surface, but I'm not complaining.'
As they approached, he discovered that it wasn't the kind of tower he was hoping for. It was simply a spire on a castle.
Then the yellow one suddenly shouted and leaped up, firing a ball of fire into the air.
Gamir immediately dropped into a defensive crouch and looked around. Were they under attack?
::::::::::::::::
"Finally home…" Ruby sighed. The team had just gotten back to their school, Beacon.
"WOO-HOO!" Yang yelled and leaped up, firing her gauntlets into the air in celebration of a mission well done.
Then the creature crouched and started whipping its head around.
"I think you scared it, Yang." Ruby comments, "And where are those cookies you promised? I'm hungry!"
Yang cringes, having forgotten that she had promised to get Ruby some cookies when they got back. She placates Ruby, "all right, all right, I'll go buy some now," before walking back towards Vale.
::::::::::::::::
Gamir, after concluding that the group wasn't under attack, watches with bemusement as the red one scolds the yellow one for the false alarm. The yellow one walks off, and Gamir chuckles before he realizes something.
They'd walked the entire way back to these creatures's home.
That meant that they didn't have a teleport gate.
'Well, since they don't have a teleport gate, I can't teleport back. And since my summoner lives on a floating island, it is literally impossible to walk back, even if I knew exactly where the island was. Guess that leaves me with just one option:'
'Start my life over from scratch, right here, right now.'
