Sorry this is so late, didn't really know how to handle this chapter. I knew what I wanted, I just couldn't figure out how to handle it.

So you folks might as well enjoy.

Surprisingly enough for the Soma and the others, the red hooded girl was waiting outside the police station, waiting for someone.

The girl perked up as she noticed the four, "H-hey!" she called out to them with a wave, "I um... I wanted to say thanks for the help."

Shanoa smiled softly, "It was nothing, We were only doing what was right." Shanoa said.

"Still, thanks." The girl said, "I'm Ruby by the way."

"Shanoa, these are my companions Soma, Cornell, and Maria."

"Shanoa?" Ruby asked, "Where have I heard that name before?"

It was then a truck rolled up in front of the station, sitting in the back was Yang Xiao Long, in front was an older short haired blonde man. Both of them jumped out of the truck.

The man was the first to reach Ruby, "Thank Oum you're safe Ruby." The man said grabbing Ruby and pulling her into a tight hug, which seemed to knock the wind out of her.

"I... I'm fine dad." Ruby gasped, "I had... Help!"

"Hey Shanoa, you helped my sis?" Yang asked.

"Sister?" Cornell asked.

Yang looked over at Cornell, "Yeah, Ruby's my baby half sister. Different moms."

"I did." Shanoa said, "So did my friends."

"Then it seems I owe you four a debt." Ruby's father said, "I'm Taiyang Xiao Long, but please, call me Tai."

The group introduced themselves to Tai, shaking his hand as they did so, "So where are you four staying?" Tai asked with a smile.

"We've rented an apartment for the time being." Soma said, "It's not the best but it's gotten us by for a while now."

"Well that's no good, please, stay at my place until Beacon starts, I insist." Tai said, "After all I gotta repay my debt to you somehow."

The four looked to each other and nodded, "Thank you for your kindness." Maria said, while Osca hooted on her shoulder, "Might I ask that Osca stays in your passenger seat, I don't want him to be blown away while I speak to my friends."

"It's fine... hes got nothing against dogs right?" Tai asked, right as the window to the truck rolled down and a small Corgi's head popped out and let out an adorable bark.

"He's fine with dogs as long as the dog isn't hostile." Maria said as everyone but her and Tai climbed in the back.

"Does... Excessive playfulness count as hostility?" Tai asked.

Osca hooted before flying into the cab and landing on the Corgi's back and hooted.

"That's a no." Maria said.

"So... what do you all fight with?" Ruby asked pulling out her weapon, "I've got my Crescent Rose, I high-impact sniper rifle built into a Scythe." Ruby noticed the four of them shuddered as she mentioned the word Scythe, "Is... Something wrong with my weapon?"

"No." Cornell said, "We've just had rather... Negative feelings toward the last scythe wielder we fought."

"Oh... Well I'm sure my baby is nothing like his." Ruby said hugging her collapsed weapon.

"Very true." Soma said, "And you are nothing like him."

"Phew." Ruby said, "Anyway my sister Yang has shotgun gauntlets."

"Ruby! I can explain Ember Celica on my own." Yang teased, "So what do you guys use anyway?"

"I use nothing but my own claws." Cornell said letting the claws on one of his hands extend, "I'm a wolf Faunus for your information."

"Whoa... those are huge." Yang said blinking.

"I usually support Osca with my kicks." Maria said, "I've trained to specialize in using them and even in normal shoes I am lethal to Grimm."

"You and me need to spar." Yang said with a grin, "I can take you I'll bet."

"We'll see." Shanoa said, "Anyway I use only my semblance to fight. With it I can form weapons and even wings for a short time." To show them Shanoa created a lance in her hand for a moment before letting it fade away.

"That's awesome." Ruby said, "You can never be disarmed can you?"

"No, but it's a drain on my stamina instead of my Aura so I cant use it repeatedly, thankfully I recover quickly." Shanoa said.

"I've only got a knife and pistol." Soma said pulling the items out, "But I'm proficient in many weapons."

"What are you good with?" Ruby asked.

"I can fight with Guns, Knives, Swords, Rapier's, Spears, claymore's, hammers, two handed axes, scythes, katana, and I've worked well with snakeswords for a while." Soma said.

Ruby's jaw hit dirt as she stared at Soma, "Why do you only have knife and pistol then!?" Ruby cried out glaring at Soma.

Soma lurched back at Ruby's shouted, "I've only borrowed the other weapons." Soma lied, truthfully Arikado had to take his other weapons from him as Japanese laws were strict on weapons, he could barely slip the Knife and Gun through. "I had to return them after I had finished using them."

Ruby then stood up on the truck and jabbed a finger at Soma, "When we get to our place I'm building you a weapon, start taking notes because I want to know what to make!" Ruby declared just before the truck bounced and causing Ruby to fall onto her back.

The five looked at Ruby for a minute before Yang sighed, "I'm sorry about her, she's really enthusiastic about weapons." Yang said.

"That's... a bit of an understatement." Cornell said looking surprised.

"Ow..." Ruby groaned.

Once Ruby was recovered she pulled from somewhere a notepad and sat next to Soma and began asking him details on the weapon he wanted, meanwhile Yang kept a close eye on Ruby.

Inside the the cab Zwei and Osca seemed to be mimicking each other, when Osca tilted his head so did Zwei, though Zwei's back legs seemed to be twitching in the urge to get moving.

"How goes the hiring process?" Glynda asked Ozpin as she stepped into the room, "Oh, sorry I didn't know you had company Professor."

"It's not a problem, in fact I believe you ought to meet your combat class replacement." Ozpin said holding his hand out to the man standing across from his desk.

The man was rather tall, but had rather pale skin, he was wearing a black suit that had four buttons around the waist arranged in a square, a white shirt underneath with a black necktie covering most of the shirt but under the suit, his shoes were white dress shoes that had black in the middle, there was a folded red hankerchief in his chest pocket, his hair was long and dark and his eyes were brown.

"Pleasure to meet you Professor Goodwitch." The man said holding out his hand, "I hope you can show me the ropes on how you prefer to educate these children."

"Well at least you're conisderate." Glynda muttered shaking the mans hand, "What's your name by the way?"

"Genya Arikado." The man said with a soft smile.
