Okay I'm back; as you guys know I don't own anything here any and all likeness to characters based off of real people is purely coincidental.

Chapter 4: A bit of Backstory

It was nice for the team to be in the same room again despite what Glynda says it is nice, but she is still yet to get that fucking hole fixed. It isn't that it sucks, I just would feel a lot better giving the two couples some form of privacy.

I am ripped from my thoughts from someone pounding on the door. Which just causes me to think who the hell is that it is like stupid o'clock in the morning. As I walk to the door I pull out my scroll to check the time the numbers stare back at me saying 12:00.

Oh someone is going to get punted. I fling open the door to see a distressed Weiss.

"Weiss this has best be good because if it isn't I swear next time I put you in hospital you will go to the morgue." I say quietly so as not to disturb Micah and Niall who are still asleep and Fionn is meditating right now.

She pants barely able to get anything out so I ushered her in to sit down and take deep breaths. "Now Snow white calm down and talk slowly when you are ready."

After about five minutes she finally speaks, "I need all of you awake to tell you this, because Cinder has taken the entire school hostage that was in and you guys where the only ones who were out."

I shrug and convince Fionn to wake up Niall because he most likely won't maul Fionn's Face off, as for Micah he isn't that bad he is just a little bit agitated about the wake-up call. When we regroup in front of Weiss she begins to tell the story.

"Everyone was at lunch when this large group of Faunus came in and started shooting to get everyone on the ground then Cinder walked in with her cronies with all the teachers. They said they needed to speed up the plan because there has been a slight complication to the plan. Ozpin distracted them long enough for me to get out and get you guys to come and stop them."

We look between each other, Me and Micah know we can get this done but not sure about the numbers we need to get the other two behind us.

"Hobbit if you help us seriously I will make breakfast with all the trimmings, and as for you Fionn I won't mock you for going down the pansy way so you don't need to kill." I offer knowing full well Niall will agree because his weakness is his stomach as for Fionn he will go with the flow.

"Fine but we best be done by three because you still need to contact your black-market guy to get me and Nora the Ursa." I nod my head in agreement.

"Right Weiss can you please step outside or even into the bathroom for a few minutes while we get changed," Micah states calmly knowing that she is already distressed. She walks into the bathroom and locks the door to give us some privacy.

After a few seconds we are done and in our full battle gear, the only difference to our normal clothes is I'm wearing a black suit with a black tie and Micah swapped coats so he is now wearing his dad's coat, it stops at the waist and has seen its own share of wear and tear. We knock on the bathroom door to let Weiss know we are done.

"Weiss, stay here we will get you when it is done do not open the door to anyone except use and make sure we say 'Snow White do you want this apple.' Got it" Micah says sternly to make sure the point is clear as well as the passphrase to let her know it is safe.

She nods her head to prove she understood what was said. "No say the phrase back to me Weiss it is of the utmost importance you know it so you know when it is safe."

"Snow White do you want this apple." She says quickly so to get us to go faster. "Okay and Weiss we won't be that long and we will get everyone back safely if you feel like you need to sleep feel free to use one of the beds." I say to reassure her.

We walk towards the cafeteria seeing a few guards at the door who are easily threw through the door thanks to Fionn. "Heh that must have gotten their attention." I say to try and lighten up their moods.

"WHO THE HELL IS DUMB ENOUGH TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" We hear shouted out at us, as we walk in we see quite a few scared Faunus of the White Fang and four Very pissed off non Faunus members who are clearly the leaders. Like Weiss said there was Cinder, who was a fine woman with a slight aggressive and god complex. Mercury the guy who lead Micah and Fionn to their temporary dorm, a small girl holding a parasol with two tone hair and finally a woman who looked familiar I lean up to Fionn and whispered, "Hey isn't that, that Girl who had a huge crush on you and when she confessed those feelings you came out to her and said you were gay."

I point to the women in question and he face palmed. "Yes that is her, when I heard she lost it I thought it was a joke to get me angry but clearly I was wrong." He says with his head in one of his hands.

"No, not you four, you four are the reason why we are in this predicament. Mercury, Emerald, Neo, get them NOW!" Cinder screams.

"Micah these guys I'd say are of B rank and I wont to fight that cheap suit wearing freak, and that crazy green haired chick will go after Fionn so what is the plan?" I say to him calmly as we dodge a barrage of bullets from the White Fang and two of the People Cinder addressed.

"Don't worry about the Faunus right now, they aren't a threat, Hobbit you get that Neo girl judging from her stance she specialises in defence which you are the best at getting rid of. Fionn when she uses her weapon in its Kusarigama form use the strongest blue dust you have it should incapacitate her. Michael Use your semblance he isn't that much of a fighter but he is fast. I shall deal with Cinder." Micah says as he unsheathes his sword and we stroll after we acknowledged the plan.

"Why would you four even help them they are innocents, they don't even know what you did!" Cinder shouts angrily.

"For those of you who aren't asleep she is reffering to how we single handily caused the Coup d'état in our home kingdom, we are now the leaders and she fears use some may say it is a phobia but the fear she feels is completely rational." I say as I punch my way through them and stand in front of my target.

"Now I'm going to teach you the importance of proper attire Mister Black. So you don't get surprised when I hit you my semblance isn't a simple on, it is gravity itself. More specifically right before I hit it forms a black hole so you can't dodge and come in at a high velocity once the hit connects it becomes a white hole flinging you." I say as he charges me and I simple dodge as to get my point across.

When he was done with his useless barrage he readied his stance once more and I pull one hand out of my pocket and punched him in the jaw too fast for him to even see it. He is flung clear out of the cafeteria through the path with the most rock by the looks of it. He isn't getting up if he is even alive at this point. I look over and see a convulsing woman that Fionn was fighting.

I look slightly over and see the woman Niall was fighting to be bleeding badly, I look to his swords to judge how angry he was but the blade remained unchanged. Finally I look to Micah to see him just dodging high level burn dust spells.

Then Micah brought down his sword at her shins I cringe knowing the inevitable explosion would undoubtedly kill her. The sound resonated through the big hall and we see the path we took. There was at best twenty Faunus left moving and they were in a straight b-line to the door.

We looked to the shocked faces and see Ozpin sitting with Glynda talking calmly with the other professors, as for the students they had a terrified look on their faces but once what hit them they all cheered.

"Michael that was sooooo awesome he didn't even stand a chance." Ruby said running up to me followed be Yang carrying Blake over her Shoulder.

"Oh don't worry about her Michael she is just asleep, she was up late studying last night for our test tomorrow." Yang says as she reaches me. I turn around and see the others coming up.

"The odds of at least one of them being alive, ninety-nine percent as for the other three, death almost guaranteed we still live up to our group title." Micah says and if I didn't know better I would say he was joking.

"Right Micah I'm going to get Weiss and bring these three with me so they can be reunited as a team as for the rest of you find a seat I'll bring all of team RWBY back and I'll make breakfast." I say and they all nod.

Me being followed by Yang and Ruby next to me who was bubbling and giggling, "That was so cool but you were joking about the whole coup thing right? And what title was Micah referring to?"

"Okay Little Red calm down and I will answer your questions. The title is the 'Gods of Death' as for the coup… No I wasn't joking because the politicians of our kingdom caused our team to be orphans quite literary for Micah. Don't get me wrong we all are orphans but Micah was made one by those guys. Fionn couldn't handle the corruption and agreed, Niall is a thrill seeker and me and Micah have been good friends for years when he passed me the idea I offered my help." I say calmly to the point you could feel a slight chill in my words.

"Oh… did you guys… uh… kill them?" said clearly fearing she already knew the answer.

"Micah Killed the Leader as for his underlings we all killed them because there was no saving their souls, they were far to corrupted and before you even ask when I said we did it single handedly I meant we were the only ones on our side at the start and by the end we had everyone who wasn't elbow deep in the group." Again I said it colder than intended.

We reach the door and I knocked on it and say 'Snow White do you want this apple.' There was a brief sound of the locks being fumbled with and Weiss who had been clearly crying for some reason, most likely morbid. She brightens up seeing Ruby next to me.

"Y-y-you were only gone for twenty minutes and you brought her back." She tackles me in a hug and shoves her head into my chest crying and saying thank you over and over again.

"Okay Snow White if you want to show your gratitude first get off me, second stop crying and thirdly get your girlfriend to stop giving me a death glare which is failing. She is the jealous type and you four have made it clear you aren't into men." Weiss sits up on me rubs her eyes with the back of her hand and stands up to go hug Ruby and gave her a quick peck on the cheek and then looks back at me and begins to cry again.

"I-I-I-I'm sorry but I assumed once you guys left that I never would see any of you again and not only did you bring me back the love of my life you also saved everyone." She says in between sobs.

"Snow White do you remember the second thing I said? Stop crying. I don't like to see women cry. Now come on I owe my team a breakfast might as well cook some for you four as well as team JNPR. Oh and if you want to show your appreciation even further, NEVER CRY INTO MY SUIT AGAIN." She looks hurt and flinches slightly.

"S-s-sorry but I thought it was just a normal suit." Weiss says timidly.

I sigh trying to clarify as we begin our walk back. "Look I didn't mean don't come crying to me despite how much I don't like seeing a crying woman it is just this suit in particularly, it has too much sentimental value of which none of you deserve right now to know why."

"O-o-okay, I would like to hear the story eventually though." She says timidly as the begin to walk ahead into the cafeteria I slow down to see Blake had woken up and was walking up holding onto Yang's hand smiling.

"Thank you for saving her." Blake says calmly and almost coldly but I know now that it isn't intentional. "Okay? You're Welcome. So quick question do any of you or the rest of your team slash JNPR have any food allergies?" they both look to each other and then back to me.

"Why? But to answer your question, no, I don't think so I know Ruby is allergic to high level potassium foods but after that I'm not sure." Yang says with a look of pure questioning on her face.

"I'm going to make a late breakfast for my team yours and why not JNPR because Nora and Hobbit have been getting along too well it is scary because I know vaguely what they are planning." I say and watch them shrug their shoulders and we walk in. I see everyone chatting away and looking happy.

After an hour and the food was fully done I carried it all in and I see their eyes go to the size of dinner plates. "WOW! I THOUGH YOU WERE JOKING HOBBIT THAT LOOKS GOOD!" I hear Nora scream and flail her arms to emphases her point. "I wasn't sure of any food allergies on your side JNPR so if you are in question speak up please and Ruby there is nothing with high potassium so don't worry." I say putting down the plates.

The spread was eggs, hash-browns, pancakes, soda bread, bacon, sausages, a scrumptious fruit salad, white and black pudding and the list went on. Once all of use took what we want we dug in.

"Oh. My. God. This is amazing is there anything you can't do." Ruby and Nora said in unison. "How does one of if not the richest person in all of Remnant learn how to do this." Weiss and Pyrrha say in unison.

"Simple I got taught by the chiefs I have known my entire life." I say calmly as I am sipping coffee and eating my fill seeing all their faces light up in bliss.

"SOOO what is my favourite group in all of Beacon up to." I hear the most arrogant voice in all of Remnant speak. "Cardin I will give you one chance to leave and never come up or speak to me again or I will break every bone in your spine then when you are in complete agony I will let everyone in Beacon get a nice hit on you."

"Okay but can you just tell me your secret and I promise you will never see me again." He pleads.

"ahhh, Tell you what, I will… but I can't just give that information to anyone. You need to prove yourself. You can fight Hobbit there in the arena in two hours he will use the butter-knife and you can even use your full team. OR go to every on you have wronged in anyway even if you said something sarcastic and let them punch you to their hearts content. IF you live I will tell you. Sound like a deal?"

"Pfft fine I'll take the arena match but you better be ready to give the information up." He says and laughs off manically.

"He does realise the name of my sword is the butter-knife, right?" Niall says in full concerned for his opponent's safety.

"Who cares just go slightly easier on his cronies and give Cardin a new hole to breathe from if he can breathe from his lower chest." I say clearly irate at Cardin because of his constant harassing of me.

"Okay I booked the match don't vandalise his corpse too much." Micah says with a smirk on his face.

Author's Note:
