"The Vytal Festival! Oh, this is absolutely wonderful!" Weiss said as she's happy when she saw a person pulled up the sign with red letters "Welcome to Vale!"
"Wow… I haven't seen you smile this much, Weiss. But, what's so special about the event?" Naruto asked. He won't lie about her smile. This is the first to see her face like that.
"It's kinda weirding me out…" Ruby said.
"How could you not smile? A festival dedicated to the cultures of the world! There will be dances, parades, and tournament! On the amount of planning and organization that goes into this event is simply breathtaking." Weiss said as she and the other four walked in the town. Exploring all of the stuff that was for Vytal Festival.
"You really know how to take a good thing and make it sound boring." Yang said with her bored expression as she crossed her arms.
"Quiet you." She glared before they heard a boat at the dock.
"Remind me again why are we spending our Friday afternoon visiting the stupid docks?" Yang asked.
Ruby covers her nose when she smelled something stink like fish, "They smell like fish."
"I've heard that students visiting from Vacuo will be arriving by ship today. And as a representative of Beacon, I feel as though it is my solemn duty to welcome them to this fine kingdom." Weiss said
"She wants to spy on them so she'll have the upper hand in the tournament." Blake smiled as Naruto laughed.
"You can't prove that! And Naruto, stop laughing!" She glared at laughing Naruto.
"Sorry, sorry." Naruto stopped his laugh before turned his head to the right and saw something over there, "There's something over there."
The girls looked at a broken window down a street with a yellow caution tape. There are two police investigating the crime scene. It's a Dust Shop. It looks like the robbery has targeted this one. Strangely, the money is inside. The Dust is all gone.
"What happened here?" Ruby asked one of the cops.
"Robbery. Second Dust Shop to be hit this week. This place is turning into a jungle." He replied
"That's terrible." Yang commented.
"They left all the money again." Naruto and Ruby turned at the police when he said they left all the money.
"Yeah, just doesn't make a lick o' sense. Who needs that much Dust?" The detective asked.
"I don't know an army?" Another detective asked
"You think it might be the White Fang?"
"Yeah, I'm thinking we don't get paid enough."
"Recognize this crime?" Kurama asked.
Naruto nodded to agree with him. He remembered the one person who stole the Dust from the beginning. The one shop called From Dust Till Dawn. It was a guy in a white suit and his name is Roman Torchwich. Maybe, he's the one that made a crime.
"Hmph. The White Fang. What an awful bunch of degenerates." Weiss said
"What's your problem?" Blake asked with a glared.
"My problem? I simply don't care for the criminally insane."
"The White Fang is hardly a bunch of psychopaths. They're a collection of misguided Faunus."
"Misguided?! They want to wipe humanity off the face of the planet!"
"So then they're very misguided. Either way, it doesn't explain why they would rob a Dust shop in the middle of downtown Vale."
"Hmm. Blake got a point." Ruby said as the team looked at her, "Besides, the police never caught that that Torchwich me and Naruto I ran into a few months ago… Maybe it was him."
"Probably him." Naruto said.
"That still doesn't change the fact that the White Fang are a bunch of scum. Those Faunus only know how to lie, cheat, and steal." Weiss said.
"That's not necessarily true." Yang said.
"Hey, somebody stop that Faunus!" Naruto and his team heard a shouts coming from the same place they were. They ran to the ocean, looking what happened on the dock. A teenage man with a… monkey golden tail is running from two guards on the ship.
"Thanks for the ride, guys! Hehe." He laughed before jumped off the ship and landed on the dock as he started to running.
He's tan-skinned with short spiky light-blonde hair and dark-gray eyes. He wears two red wrist bracers and an open loose collared white jacket with no shirt underneath. His cargo pant is blue, tied up with a white belt. He wears white bandages on his legs and has a chain hanging from the belt loop on the right side of his pants. He sports black and yellow sneakers.
"He's…" Weiss said.
"Faunus." Naruto said, looking at the Faunus guy who running away from two guards. By the way, the golden tail that he has and his appearances almost like the Monkey King. Naruto watched the Chinese movie in theater place with his friends. That was in his world. A Shinobi world. It feels funny how people never heard of Journey to the West in this world.
"Well, Weiss, you wanted to see the competition, and there it goes…" Yang said.
"Quick! We have to observe him!" Weiss said as she held her a finger up before going after the Faunus.
Her team goes after the Faunus, too. They ran through between the two buildings as two guards move left. As Naruto and his team moved on the left, but Weiss bumped into someone and tripped. Both of them fell down. Weiss looked up to see the Faunus is still there, but he jumped onto a building and escaped.
"No! He got away!" She said with desperate.
"Uuuhh, Weiss…?" Yang called as she pointed at the girl underneath Weiss.
Weiss looked down and sees a smiling girl. The creepy smile startled her to get up so quickly and back away to her teammates. The smiling girl is still down on the ground.
Her curly hair is a short orange that came down to her chin, and she wore a pink bow on the back of her head. She wore an old-fashioned blouse with short feminine overalls, as well as a black and green collar with a matching pair of stockings.
"Salutations!" She greeted.
"Um… hello." Ruby said
"Are you… okay?" Weiss asked.
"I'm wonderful. Thank you for asking." The smiling girl said.
Naruto and his teams looked at each other. Then, they looked back.
"Do you need a help?" Naruto asked as he offers the girl for help.
"Yes, it will be so nice." She grabbed his hand as she gets up, "Thank you. My name is Penny. It's a pleasure to meet you!"
"Naruto."
"Hi Penny. I'm Ruby."
"I'm Weiss."
"Blake."
"Are you sure you didn't hit your head?" Yang asked before Blake hit her in the side with an elbow, "Oh, I'm Yang."
"It's a pleasure to meet you!" Penny repeated.
"You already said that." Weiss said.
"So I did…" She said.
"Well, sorry for running into you…" Weiss said as everyone turned around and started walking away.
Ruby waved goodbye for Penny, "Take care, friend."
"She was weird…" Yang commented about Penny.
"Not too weird…" Naruto said in softly. When he grabbed Penny's hand, he didn't felt her heartbeat. But, there was life force inside her which she wasn't a normal person.
"Now. Where did that Faunus riffraff run off to." Weiss said as she's looking for monkey man, but surprisingly, Penny was right in front of her.
"What did you call me?" Penny asked, looking at Yang.
"Oh, I'm really sorry, I definitely didn't think you heard me." She apologized.
"No, not you…" Penny said as she walked through them and looking at Ruby, "You!"
"Me!?" Ruby asked as leaned back away from Penny because her face is too close to hers, "I-I don't know, I—what I—um, uh-"
"You called me friend. Am I really your friend?" She asked
"Ummm…" Ruby looked to her teammates, waving their hands to deny Penny, "Ya, sure! Why not?" She answered as the girls fainted.
Penny laughed with excitement expression, "Ahaha! Sen-sational! We can paint our nails, and try on clothes, and talk about cute boys like you!" She looked at Naruto.
"Me? Thanks!" Naruto smirked as Weiss, Yang, and Blake glared at him.
"Naruto, can you be my friend?" Penny asked as her eyes were blinking, waiting for his answer.
There it is again. Naruto felt an incredible energy in her and it's not heartbeat. It was some kind of life energy to keep her alive. Also, the way she asked him and Ruby wanted to be her friend, is she's really lonely. That was his guessed, but he can tell it by looking at her eyes. Those green eyes are telling him to become her friend. It's almost like she has a suffering in the past.
Naruto gave a kind smile and said, "Sure." It made Penny jumped up and happy for having him as a friend. Her smile made him happy.
"Yes! I have two friends!" She cheered.
"Soo, what are you doing in Vale?" Yang asked.
"I'm here to fight in the tournament."
"Wait… you're fighting in the tournament?" Weiss asked.
Penny looked at her and doing her salute before said, "I'm combat ready!"
"Forgive me, but you hardly look the part." Weiss said
"Says the girl wearing a dress." Blake said
"It's a combat skirt!" Weiss said.
Ruby ran next to her as she wears a skirt, too and said, "Yeah!" Weiss held out her hand as Ruby low-five it.
"Says the man love to see pantie underneath the skirt." Kurama said.
"Says the man love to see pantie underneath-wait what!?" Naruto realized he's copying with Kurama. He just gave him a dirty mind or pervert mind.
"What did you say?" Weiss glared Naruto. Ruby blushed as she held her skirt tightly, not letting men see her pantie.
"Nothing. I-" Then, he got smack by Weiss and collapse on the ground. Naruto got up and his right cheek is really red. A slap mark from Weiss. Damn… never mess with women like her or Sakura.
"Nice job." Kurama grinned in evil.
"I hate you guys…" He glared as he's rubbing his own face.
"Wait a minute." Weiss said as she walked toward Penny, "If you're here for the tournament, does that mean you know that monkey-tailed… rapscallion?"
"The who…?" Penny asked with confusion looks before Weiss held a paper of drawing to show her. A poor drawing of monkey-tailed looks like a cartoon.
"The filthy Faunus from the boat!" She said
"Why do you keep saying that?" Blake angered when she heard Weiss said monkey-tail and filthy Faunus.
"Huh?"
Blake walked over her in furiously and said, "Stop calling him a rapscallion. Stop calling him a degenerate. He's a person!"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like me to stop referring to the trashcan as a trashcan, or this lamppost as a lamppost?"
"Stop it!" Blake yelled.
"Stop what? He clearly broke the law. Give him time, he'll probably join up with those other Faunus in the White Fang." Weiss glared.
Blake clench her fist in anger and growled, "You ignorant little brat!" She turned away from her and stormed off.
"How dare you talk to me like that! I am your teammate." Weiss said as she walked after Blake.
The two girls started to argue each other about Faunus discrimination. Naruto, Ruby, and Yang were just stood in their same position while watching their argument. It was the worst day ever to see them like that.
"Uhh, I think we should probably go." Yang said, looking uncomfortable about Weiss and Blake.
Penny appeared behind Ruby and Naruto before asked, "Where are we going?"
The team RWUBY returned back to their room, in Beacon Academy before the sunset. Unfortunately, Blake and Weiss are still in the argument. They have been yelling until the sunset. They never stop. Talking about discrimination Faunus. Talking about White Fang are evil.
"You realize you're defending an organization that hates humanity, don't you? The Faunus of White Fang are pure evil." Weiss said
"There's no such thing as pure evil! Why do you think they hate humanity so much? It's because of people like Cardin, people like you that force the White Fang to take such drastic measure!" Blake said
"People like me?"
"You're discriminatory!"
"I'm a victim!" Weiss yelled as everyone is silent, "You want to know why I despise the White Fang? Why I don't particularly trust Faunus?" She walked toward to the window.
"It's because they're been at war with my family for years. War. As in actual bloodshed. My grandfather's company has had a target painted on its back for as long as I can remember. And ever since I was a child, I've watched family friends disappear, board members executed, an entire train full of Dust… stolen. And every day, my father would come home furious, and that made for a very difficult childhood."
Ruby walked over next to her and said, "Weiss, I-"
"No!" Weiss yelled, "You want to know why I despise the White Fang?! It's because they're a bunch of liars! Thieves! And murders!"
"Well, maybe we were just tired of being pushed around!" Blake yelled.
The whole room is silent and her teammates, too. Weiss backed away slowly and looked surprised when Blake yelled. Blake realized what she just yelled as she looked around at her teammates. They're all staring at her.
"I…" Blake tries to say something, but she turned away and ran out the door.
"Blake! Wait! Come back!" Ruby yelled.
Naruto ground his teeth as he went after Blake and left his teammates behind.
Blake ran outside in the night. She kept running and running. Not looking back to her friends. It's depressing and hurt. She went too far for Weiss and made everyone shocked. She stopped by the two statues of Huntsman and Huntress. She closed her eyes, slowly lifted her arms up to her bow, and pulling the string to release…
"Blake!" She stopped pulling her bow as she turned around who shouted her name. Her eyes widened in shocked to see Naruto is running for her.
"N-Naruto?" She surprised.
"I found you." Naruto said as he panted for running to look for her. Actually, he wasn't even tired. He just followed her scent or aura by sensing it. Blake is easy to find.
"Wh-What are you doing here?" Blake asked with nervous feeling about taking out her bow. Hopefully, he didn't see her doing.
"Looking for you, of course!" He answered.
"You shouldn't go look for me…because I said so horrible things…" She frowned for saying horrible things to Weiss.
Naruto feels her emotion of hatred and anger, but she's innocent and mistaken.
"Blake, is there something you wanted to tell me about your bow?" He asked as Blake started shocked.
She can't believe what he just asked.
"What...?" She shocked as she dropped her sweat on her face. That's impossible. She wore the bow for a month and a half. No one saw her identity. No one. But, this man… Did he found out she was a Faunus? Since when? How in the world did he figure that?
"I promised I won't tell anyone… I would never break it. You don't have to hide anymore." Naruto said as he walked closer to Blake and looking at her bows which she worried, "May I?"
A pink blush appeared on Blake's cheeks when Naruto closed to her. By telling his questionable face is quite impressive. She didn't say anything to him, but she nodded. Wait a minute! Did she just let Naruto pull her bow out?
Naruto's arms up to her bow and gently pulled the string out to release the bow from her head. His eyes started surprisingly because he sees cute black cat ears and twitching it. That means she's a Faunus.
Blake began to feel uncomfortable at Naruto's stare. Her cat ears were exposed and she's Faunus. She was nervous he might yell at her for keeping the secret from everyone or him.
"You see… the reason why I wear the bow because I-"
"Cute." Naruto said as Blake started to heat up on her face, "You look much better without your bow. You're beautiful and cute. So, why hide them?"
"Because I didn't want people to think what I am… I'm scared my teammates will hate me as a Faunus-"
"Blake, our friends and I never hate you. I don't care what people said about you, but you're special to me. Important to me as a friend. From the beginning, I thought you're just a quiet person. But, you have shown your friendship. Even if you're Faunus, I still think you're beautiful and cute. I'm still accepting you like I did to Velvet. You're one of my kindest friends I ever have." Naruto said with a dazzling smile, "Friends are the treasure. Friends are my treasure because they saved me from myself, they rescued me from my loneliness. They were the first to accept me for who I am. I was happy I have you girls to be my friends." He remembered his old friends and his old teammates.
Blake is starting to feel a warm feeling in her body. She blushed when he called her beautiful and cute. This might be her first to meet a person like him. He's so polite, loyal, and heartwarming.
"The truth is… I used to be White Fang member." She said.
"What?" Naruto shocked.
"Yes, I was practically born into the White Fang organization. Back in time, things were different. In the ashes of war, the White Fang was meant to be a symbol of peace and unity between humans and the Faunus. Of course, despite being promised equality, the Faunus were subjected to discrimination and hate. Humanity still of thought of us as lesser beings. And so, the White Fang rose up as a voice of our people. And I was there."
"Yeah, I get it your childhood, but… what did you do when you became a member of White Fang?" Naruto asked.
"When we have a new leader of White Fang, we attacked them. We were setting fire to shops that refused to serve us. Hijacking cargo from companies that used Faunus labor. And the worst part was? It was working. We were being treated like equals. But not out of respect… out of fear."
"After that, you left because you never wanted to use your skills?" Naruto guessed.
"Yep, I decided I no longer wanted to use my skills to aid in their violence. My goal is to become a Huntress. So here I am. A criminal hiding in plain view. All with the help of a little, black bow." Blake finished her story as her cat ears are twitching. Hopefully, she didn't means to shock Naruto.
Naruto learned Blake's story about her childhood and joined White Fang, but he was worried something about White Fang doing right. He believes Blake, but there was a feeling of hatred in him. He wasn't so sure about this.
"I hate to say this. You know White Fang hurt innocent human and Faunus. Perhaps, I should say almost kill innocent Faunus." He said.
"I know that…" Blake said. That's why she left the group. She's not like the one person who used to be her partner before, "I'm not like them. I'm… just want to be a Huntress to create peaceful between human and Faunus as possible. But, it's hard." Blake means being Huntress is big responsible.
"I know it's hard to achieve it, but you gotta move forward. Never give up your goals. When you give up, your dreams and everything else, they're gone, but I know you can do this."
"What if I can't do it by myself? What can I do? I'm not so great-" She asked with depressed as she looked down desperately before her head was touch by Naruto's hand
"Then… you'll have to find your answer yourself." He said.
"My answer?"
Naruto smiled warmly at her, "You will find your answer. I believe in you."
Blake looked in his azure eyes. Those are warm and kind. His smile is cheerful. A pink color grows on her cheeks and her heartbeat is fast on her chest.
"Well then." Naruto gets up from the bench, "I'm going to pretend I didn't see you." He was about to go, but his sleeve is held. He looked back and surprised to see Blake held his sleeve.
"Can you…" She murmured with a pink on her cheeks, "Can you stay with me…?" She doesn't know why she said that to him. It was a stupid question.
"Sure, I don't mind." Naruto answered.
"And…" She has another one to say.
"And?" He listened carefully.
"Can you help me to investigate the White Fang? Because I don't believe the White Fang is behind these robberies."
Naruto gave her a looks for few seconds before answered, "Sure, but what made you think the White Fang isn't behind of this."
"Because they've never needed that much Dust before, but one thing is… I don't what their location." Blake said.
"I believe I can help." Naruto and Blake turned their head around where the voice is.
"Blake?!" Ruby yelled in the city.
"Naruto?!" Yang yelled.
"Blake?! Naruto?! Where are you!? I bought a Ramen for you, Naruto!" Ruby yelled as she held the Ramen up in the air to bait for Naruto. She turned around to Weiss as she isn't helping anything. She just crossed her arms and grumpy. "Weiss, you're not helping."
"Oh! You know who might be able to help? The police." She called.
Ruby scowled on her face at her and said, "Weiss."
"It was just an idea!"
"Yeah, a bad one."
"Weiss, I think we should hear her side of the story before we jump to any conclusions." Yang said
"I think when we hear it, you'll all realize I was right."
"And I think Weiss's hair looks wonderful today!" The unknown voice came from behind them.
Ruby and everyone were shocked when they turned around and see Penny.
"Penny! Where did you come from?!" Ruby asked.
"Hey, guys. What are you up to?" She asked
"We're looking for our friends Naruto and Blake." Yang said
"Ooooh! You mean the blonde man and Faunus girl."
Everyone is blinking their eyes at Penny just in a moment. Is she talking about Blake?
"Wait. How did you know that?" Ruby asked.
"Uh, the cat ears?" Penny asked as she pointed her finger to her own head for example.
"What cat ears? She wears a bow…" Yang said.
Now, everyone is silent before a tumbleweed rolled passed by them.
"She does like tuna a lot." Ruby whispered.
"Okay, you're saying it was Roman Torchwich who ordered the White Fang to steal the Dust?" Blake asked.
"Yeah, I'm sure. Ruby and I have seen him in the night before we first met each other." Naruto said as he remembered about men in the black suit is the mafia, "And I'm pretty sure of it. Roman hired the henchmen to rob the Dust."
"The only thing is, I have no idea where that would be." Blake said.
"Well, while I was on the ship, I heard some guys talking about offloading a huge shipment of Dust coming in from Atlas." The monkey-Faunus blonde man said. He's the one who ran away from two guards. Also, he came in the night where he meet Naruto and Blake. They learned his name is Sun Wukong.
"How huge?" Blake asked
"Huge. Big Schnee Company freighter." He said
"You're sure?" Naruto asked.
In the night.
Naruto, Blake, and Sun are hiding on top of the roof at the dock. Waiting for the White Fang to arrive. They're looking at the cargo "Schnee Dust".
"Did I miss anything?" Sun asked as he came back and bought the apples in his arms.
"Not really. They've offloaded all the crates from the boat. Now they're just sitting there." Blake said before looking at Naruto, "What about you?"
Naruto is sensing the aura to find the Faunus on the dock. They're not there yet. However, he feels the wind and telling him they're coming.
"They're coming." He said before he and the other two feel the air pressure.
They see the Bullhead is above the cargo while using the headlight. The Bullhead land on the ground and the hatch door is open. A Faunus person with black hooded clothes, white vest, and red tiger with claws over it on the back walked outside.
"Oh no…" Blake worried. She can't believe it was them.
"Is that them?" Naruto asked as Blake nodded.
"You really didn't think they were behind it, did you?" Sun asked
"No. I think deep down I knew. I just didn't want to be right." Blake said.
"Hey! What's the hold?" Blake heard a man's voice as she looked down at the hatch door. A man walks out of the hatch. A criminal. The one who robbed the Dust shop. The one who ordered the White Fang to rob, is Roman Torchwich.
"We're not exactly the most inconspicuous bunch of thieves at the moment, sooo why don't you animals try to pick up the pace." He said
Naruto remembers him at the Dust Shop, "It's him…"
"The White Fang would never work with a human. Especially not one like that." Blake said as she stands up and draws her sword before jump off the roof and went after Roman. She sneaked behind one of the cargoes as she takes a peek to see Roman.
"No, you idiot! This isn't a leash!" He yelled before someone dashed him from behind and held a sword to his neck, "What the? Oh for f-"
"Nobody move!" Blake yelled as the White Fang glare at her.
"Woah! Take it easy there little lady." Roman said.
Blake's eyes roll left to right as the other enemies came surround her. Now, there's a chance for her. She pulls her bow out and exposed her Faunus ears to prove herself she's a White Fang member.
"Brothers of the White Fang. Why are you aiding this scum?!" She asked.
Roman chuckled as he spoke, "Oh kid. Didn't you get that memo?"
"What are you talking about?"
"The White Fang and I are going in on a joint business venture together."
"Tell me what it is or I'll put an end to your little operation." Blake demanded before she hears turbine engines from the sky.
"I wouldn't exactly call it a little operation."
Blake looked up and saw two Bullheads flew above them.
Roman smirked on his face as he shoots the cane on the ground to create an explosion and make Blake fly back. She fell on the ground, shaking her head to recover before Roman is going to shoot her. But, he did. The explosive bullet was shot and about to hit her, but Naruto jumped in front of her, just in time to save her. He used his Kubikiribōchō to block the explosive bullet with the blade. It blocked the explosive bullet and he didn't get push back.
"Blake, are you okay?!" Naruto looked back to Blake as she's still down on the ground.
"I'm fine." She replied as she gets up, "Thank you." He nodded and smiled.
"Great, it's you." Roman annoyed to see blonde again, "Looks like I'll have to take you two-" A falling banana peel interrupts him by landing on his face. He swipes the peel from his face before a jumping golden monkey blonde Faunus stomped on his head. A Faunus rolls over after stomped on Roman's face and jumped off.
"You mean three." Sun said
The one Bullhead just opened the hatch as few Faunus were inside there. They jump down on the ground, carry the weapon with them. Swords. Guns. It's for three people to take down.
"You are not the brightest banana in the bunch, are ya kid?" Roman asked before the fight has started.
Three Faunus charge forward at Sun first. Sun dodged the swinging sword first as he punches a man in the face and sees the incoming enemy. He spins 80-degree kick on the side of the body before taking out his weapon. It's a red Bo stick. He attacked them with it.
The other White Fang members are attacking Naruto and Blake. But, two of them were undefeated because they did the teamwork.
Blake dodged the gun firing by flipping over to miss them. All of them flew under and above her body. Then, Naruto jumps over his teammate and slashed the gun with Kubikiribōchō. He made the White Fang member look scared as he opens palm strikes in the stomach. It sent the Faunus to crash into the group.
The three gunners are shooting at them, but Naruto is right in front of them by using pure speed. He lows spinning kick to their legs and made them fell. He then used lightning chakra in his fist to punch the enemy in the stomach along with the others.
Blake sees Sun blocked the explosive from Roman , so she charged and jumped over him, "He's mine!" She attacks Roman.
Blake swings her katana at him and used her black sheath to block his attack. Whenever Roman is attacking her, a strange Shadow Blake took a hit for her. She used her Semblance, Shadow; allow her to create clones of herself. However, Roman managed to hit the real Blake as he punched in her face. He can handle her Semblance.
He swung his cane at Blake in her head and the hit her stomach. Roman was aiming in her head again, but got stopped by Naruto. He stopped him by using his giant sword to block him. Then, Sun jumps over him and dropkicks to Roman . He made his Bo stick turn into a duel Nunchaku-shotgun.
So, Sun started to attack Roman as he swings his Nunchaku, making firing shots by pressing a trigger. As Roman's cane got hit up in the air, Naruto and Blake did a punch and kick together in his stomach. Roman pushed back and got hit by the cargo.
He was pissed. He can't stand against three little brats. He can't run away from them…but his eyes caught up at the cargo hanging by cranes. So, he shoots his cane at the hook as the cargo falling down to three people.
Both of three dodged the cargo. Blake did a roundoff to back away from cargo. Naruto rolls back away with Blake. Sun forward rolled to dodge the cargo, but he sees Roman's cane pointed at his head.
Naruto slowly takes his Tri-pronged kunai out from the pocket, but heard someone shout, "Hey!" He looks to the right and sees Ruby is on the roof.
"Ruby?"
"Oh hello Red! Isn't it past your bedtime?" Roman asked mockingly, but then… another person appeared behind Ruby. It's Penny. At that moment, Roman took an aim at Ruby and his cane shoots it, but a strange yellow light spark appeared in front of him.
A hand grabbed Roman's hand and lifted it up in air to miss his cane fire. The explosive bullet almost hit Ruby. It just flew right passed by her hair. Luckily, she didn't get hurt.
"Th-That's impossible!" Roman shocked for seeing Naruto who stopped his attack. How? How did he get here so fast? He was far behind the cargo with Blake. Suddenly, he appeared right in front of him. Until now, he sees blue glowing in his hand. A blue energy orb is in his hand.
"Never hurt my friends again! Rasengan!" Naruto roared as he smashed the Rasengan into Roman's stomach. The power of rotation is making a hole on his stomach and pushing him back as his feet started to move back.
Naruto lets his Rasengan go as it pushed Roman away from him. The Rasengan sent him a fly toward to the cargo. His back got to hit against it. He has a wound circle as his clothes ripped in the circle.
"Woah…" Sun amazed.
Blake reacted amazingly to see how Naruto defeat Roman without dropping sweat. He was right next to her, but then, he appeared in front of him. Her eyes didn't catch his speed.
"It's over, Roman. You're going to jail-" Naruto was about to say that, but he hears Bullhead's engine. He looked at the sky. Three Bullheads came and started shooting the Gatling guns at him and his friends.
Naruto dodges the bullets and was about to turn his big sword into rocket launcher mode, but a green laser just shot two of Bullhead for him. It made him look surprised to see that. He turned his head to the right where the laser come from.
A woman's cloth is green and short brown hair. Could it be… It's Penny! But how? There's several strings on her back and goes connect to the almost like gun-swords. The guns created green laser which it destroyed two of Bullheads.
"Penny?" Naruto shocked with his both amazingly eyes. However, he sees Roman is escaping after the Bullhead fired. He was going to after him, but got interfere and taking fire by another Bullhead.
Penny sees the Bullhead is firing at her friend, Naruto. She turned her guns into sword mode and sent them to fly toward at Bullhead to stab the body. Her cables are extremely strong. She can definitely pull the heavy aircraft down by walking backward.
"She's giving me a chance." Naruto said before nodded to Penny as he began to run after Roman. He ran in the left direction until he saw Roman, getting in the Bullhead.
He was going to, but he dodged the rapid fire by a Faunus, holding a minigun in the Bullhead. He dashed to the right to use the cargo as his cover. He carefully looks over the edge as he took a step. It seems like Roman had successfully escaped.
After the battle is over, the cops have arrived. Naruto and the other five, who were with them, are sitting on the box.
"Look Weiss it's not what you think she explained the whole thing you see she doesn't actually where a bow she has kitty ears and their actually kinda cute." Ruby tries to explain, but Weiss ignored her as she walked pass by her to see Blake.
Blake is nervous to tell Weiss about her Faunus identity, "Weiss, I want to know that I'm no longer associated with the White Fang. Back when I was with-"
"Stop." Weiss interrupted her, "Do you have any idea how long we've been searching for you? Twelve hours. That means I've had twelve hours to think about this. And in those twelve hours, I've decided…"
Everyone is waiting for her answer. Naruto gazes at her eyes in carefully to see if she hates it or not.
"I don't care." She answered.
"You don't care." Blake surprised.
"You said you're not one of them anymore, right?"
"No, I-I haven't been since I was younger-"
"I don't wanna hear it. All I want to know is that the next time something this big comes up. You'll come to your teammates, and friends." Weiss gave her warmth smile for her Faunus… no, her friend Blake.
Blake looked around to her friends. They're smiling.
"Friends are the treasure. Friends are my treasure because they saved me from myself, they rescued me from my loneliness. They were the first to accept me for who I am. I was happy I have you girls to become my friend!"
Her flashback went blank before gave a smile, "Of course."
"Yeah! Team RWUBY is back together!" Ruby cheered.
Weiss looked at Sun before giving him a quick glare, "I'm still not quite sure how I feel about you!" Sun gave a nervous laugh.
"Hey, hold on a minute. Where's Penny?" Ruby asked as she's looking around for her.
"Yeah, she was just right here." Naruto said as he's sensing her aura to find her. It was behind them. He looked back and saw a black car drove off from them. Maybe, someone is here to pick her you. It's sad she didn't get to say goodbye to him and the others. Hopefully, he'll meet Penny again.
Unknown Location.
"Owowow…" Roman grunted as he looked down to his stomach that has a spiraling wound, "Damn that blonde brat…. I'll get you next time…"
"Aww… Did someone hurt Torchwich so bad? How very disappointing." A female voiced.
"You have no idea how hard I'm working on. I tried to steal the Dust until That stupid brat kept interfering to me. And he pissed me off!" He growled.
"Don't worry about it. We have big plans for you, Roman. All we ask is a little cooperation." She said.
