A/N: So what I got out of the reviews last update. 1 count of Zerox-2 is a flirt, and countless more love how insane Cassandra is. Well, the insanity continues!

Chapter 10: Meet the Team

The tight armor clad woman stood before Teams RWBY and JNPR, awaiting the answer to her question as she tapped her foot. "Well? Where is he?" Cassandra questioned again, clearly becoming annoyed with her lack of response. "Um, well. Last I heard, he was going after the other crashed ship." Ruby finally answered.

"Oh good. He'll pick up Zerox-2 and we'll meet up and then I can KICK THAT TIN CAN ASS OF HIS!"

Cassandra looked to the sky and bellowed "I WILL FIND YOU NUMBER!" Ruby leaned towards Weiss and whispered "There is something wrong with her." Weiss responded "You think? I can't believe Number has a crush on her." Cassandra was practically on top of Weiss and demanded "Say that again." Weiss was at a loss for words as she stared into the visor, seeing the black and red veined parasite actually moving on the helmet.

"Say. That. Again."

Weiss gulped and repeated "I can't believe Number has a crush on you?" Cass then wrapped her arms around Weiss and proceeded to spin her around as Cassandra cheered "Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy!" Cassandra continued to spin around, holding Weiss in her arms as everyone looked at the Guardian with raised eyebrows. Cassandra finally let go of Weiss, who was unsteady of step and stumbled as Cassandra cheered "Happy day! Happy day! Happy day!" Cassandra ran to the crashed airship and jumped at it, planting her feet on the side and bouncing off of it.

Sadly, she failed the landing and landed on her front, grumbling "Well, that failed." Cassandra jumped to her feet and questioned "So where can we find the EXOs?" Blake pointed down the street and pointed, showing Number, Yang, and a robed figure that could only be Zerox-2. "NUMBER!" Cassandra barked, unholstering her Last Word revolver. Number stopped as Cassandra raised the revolver, barrel pointed right at him.

Yang immediately jumped in front of Number, Ember Celica raised and ready to fight. Ruby immediately pulled out No Land Beyond, Weiss pulling out Myrtenaster, and Blake whipping out Gambol Shroud. Cassandra cocked her head to the side, looking at Yang, then to the rest of Team RWBY, and then back to Number. Cassandra crossed one arm, and then started tapping the side of her helmet and proclaimed "So many things to point out… where to begin." Cassandra lazily made circles in the air with her revolver and questioned "What happened when we were gone? Did you make some kind of technophile harem?"

"What?! No!" Number barked as he pointed his red and white heavy machine gun in the air.

Cass turned and pointed at the sniper rifle in Ruby's hands, questioning "Where did you get that sniper rifle?" Ruby brought No Land Beyond closer and replied "Number gave it to me." Cassandra slowly turned to Number, exclaiming "You. Gave her. No Land Beyond?" Cassandra started approaching Number as she holstered her revolver. "Now Cass, there's no reason to be hasty." Number practically pleaded as he took a step back.

"You gave her. The sniper rifle. I have been searching for. For a very. Long. Time."

"Now Cass, let's be reasonable!"

"You gave a little girl! A fucking Exotic primary sniper! That I. Fucking. WANT!"

"Cass, please don't hurt me!"

Cass was chest to chest with Number, even though he stood a few inches over her, and replied "In a soft voice "Number. My dear, sweet Number. Would I ever hurt you?" She placed her hands on his shoulders as he responded "Yes. You've done so multiple times."

"And this time is no different."

Cassandra lifted herself up and wrapped her legs around Number's head, bending back and leaning him forward. She flipped and slammed Number front first into the ground, and then taking a seat on his back and crossing her legs. "What have we learned?" Cassandra questioned. Number grumbled in the ground "If you want a weapon, give it to you."

"Exactly. That's a good robot."

Cassandra got up and went to Zerox-2, reporting "Sir, the Cabal have a carrier in low orbit. The air forces have been pushed back thanks to the local military. The Cabal are taking the War of the Sands very seriously." Zerox-2 made a low whirring noise and nodded, agreeing "They are. Taking out some of our best with massive numbers. Number! What do you have to report?" Number finally pulled himself out of the ground and reported "About our current position?"

"*slow clicking sound* Affirmative."

"Well, the planet is in habited by human beings. There is a single synthetic human being, the closest they have come to an EXO. Each human possess a special trait known as a Semblance, powered by the human soul and creating an Aura, or shield."

"*quickened whir* Interesting. Will you introduce us to our new found allies?"

Number nodded and introduced "Everybody, this is Cassandra the Gunslinger Hunter. And this is Zerox-2, Voidsinger Warlock and team leader." Number placed a hand on the top of Ruby's head and introduced "This is Ruby Rose, sniper and team leader of Team RWBY." Zerox-2 stepped up and greeted "It is a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Rose." Cass greeted "Sorry about threatening to shoot you in the head. I like you scythe rifle!" Ruby smiled nervously and replied "It's nice to meet you both, and thank you."

Number put a hand on Weiss' shoulder and introduced "This is Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company." Zerox-2 exclaimed "It is a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Schnee. I haven't heard of Dust before. I would like to acquire more knowledge about this, Dust." Weiss replied "It would be a pleasure to teach you." Cassandra interrupted "I like your hair! I knew a Guardian with white hair, but I don't know what happened to her. Probably dead… oh well!" Zerox-2 made a quiet whirring sound and groaned "That is hardly appropriate conversation Cass."

"It was relevant."

Number moved on and introduced "This is Blake Belladonna, the team stealth fighter." Zerox moved on and greeted "A pleasure, Mrs. Belladonna." Cassandra exclaimed "I like your eyes. They're really… yellow. It's cool." Blake raised an eyebrow and replied "Thanks?"

"You're welcome… wait… uh huh… okay, I'll tell her. Steven says he likes your bow. He says it's cute."

"Um, thank you… Steven."

"He says you're welcome."

Number moved down the line and continued "This is Jaune Arc, leader of Team JNPR." Zerox held out his hand and greeted "Nice to meet you Mr. Arc." Cassandra looked Jaune up and down and questioned "Bruh, do you even lift?" Jaune looked at the ground with a sad look on his face, prompting Zerox to elbow Cassandra in the side. "What? Oh, high five for blondes! I'm blonde too." Cass exclaimed as she held out her hand, Jaune reluctantly returning the high five.

Number continued "This is Pyrrha Nikos, a Champion fighter." Zerox-2 held out his hand and introduced "Zerox-2, an absolute pleasure, Mrs. Nikos." Pyrrha took his hand and he immediately turned her hand palm down and kissed the back of her hand. "Easy there Z." Cass exclaimed. "What's up? So you're a champion, like Number?" Pyrrha nodded and replied "I am. I won the Mistral Tournament four times in a row."

"Damn, total lady boner right now. That's really cool."

"I really don't know how to respond to that."

Cass patted Pyrrha's shoulder and sighed "Just take the compliment." Number shook his head and moved down, introducing "This is…" Nora interrupted "I'm Nooorraaaaa!" Cassandra laughed "I like this one! She's so full of energy!" Zerox whirred, simulating a sigh and exclaimed "Nice to meet you, Nora." Nora took Zerox's hand and shook it vigorously, exclaiming "It's so cool to meet another robot like Number! Except Number isn't a robot since he has human pieces, which would make him a cyborg I guess. But it is still really cool to meet Number's friends from back on Earth!"

Number shook his head and continued "This is Lie Ren, the quiet one." Ren extended his hand and greeted "Hello." Zerox shook Ren's hand and said something in a language Cass and Number hadn't heard. Ren smiled and said something in the same language. "What the hell? What was that?" Cassandra questioned. Zerox responded in English "It was Japanese. I found some old text that I read to learn the language."

"That's so cool!"

Number nodded and exclaimed "I agree. I should look into different language sub-routines." Zerox proclaimed "It is very helpful. Now, Cassandra has yet to meet the last member." Number stepped next to Yang and introduced "This is Yang Xiao Long." Cassandra immediately stepped up to Yang, head cocked to one side, then slowly turning to the other. She slowly reached up, pulling her hood back and removing her helmet. She was almost exactly like Yang, the difference being that her blonde hair was shoulder length.

"Holy shit." Yang exclaimed. "You could be my sister! Or a clone… other than these grapefruit you seem to be saving for later." Cassandra reached out and grabbed Yang's breasts, Yang jumping that the woman that looked just like her was now feeling her up. "Why do some girls have all the luck?" Cass sighed as she continued to fondle Yang. "And yet I'm still stuck in the itty bitty titty committee with Ruby and Weiss." It was a minute of silence as Cassandra continued to touch Yang inappropriately. "Cass, it is really weird that you are still touching Yang." Number pointed out, obviously looking uncomfortable.

"You're right, it is weird that I'm still groping the shit out of Yang." Cass exclaimed, eyes basically locked on Yang's breasts.

"And yet you continue."

"They're just so big! And really soft. I have an idea!"

Cassandra pulled one hand back and undid a latch on her armor, causing it to hang from her shoulders freely. Cassandra then took Yang's hand and slid it beneath her armor, right where Cass' breast would be. "See! Not weird anymore!" Cassandra stated proudly. Number stated "If I had a nose and blood vessels, I'd be bleeding right now." Yang finally regained control of herself and tore away from Cassandra, and then promptly decking her in the face, sending Cass to the ground.

Cassandra hit the ground, and then proceeded to start laughing like someone told a joke. She sat up and announced "I like this one! Number, are you fucking this one?" Number jumped a bit and responded "No! I am not fucking Yang!"

"Well, you better get on that or I will!"

Cass jumped to her feet and rubbed her jaw, complimenting "Hell of a right hook. Respect. Hot and strong! Hell of a catch." Yang's hair was practically on fire until Number put a hand on her shoulder and whispered "Easy Yang. I know she has some… boundary issues. You just get used to her." Yang settled down as Zerox walked over to Number and placed a hand on his shoulder, whispering "Can I have a word with you?" Number nodded and replied "Of course sir." The two stepped away from the group and removed their helmets, allowing them to talk face to face.

Zerox scratched his head plate and questioned "What do you think you are doing?" Number had a confused look on his face and responded "Pardon?"

"With Yang? You know that getting involved with people is dangerous business."

"Sir, we aren't involved. The two of us are just friends."

"*irritated grinding* I heard the compliment you gave Mrs. Xiao Long. Look Number, I know you like to… explore with recreational acts, but with an inhabitant of an uncharted planet?"

"Zerox, I know what I'm doing."

"*whirring sigh* I hope so. Cass was extremely worried about you, just let that sink in."

Zerox tried to walk away but Number caught his shoulder and questioned "She's… been worried about me?" Zerox nodded and exclaimed "Very. After you vanished after the Battle of the Sands, Cass was ready to mobilize every Guardian we had left to find you." Number let go of Zerox's shoulder and stared at the ground, thinking about what his fireteam leader had just said. "Come on, I need to have a word with whoever is in charge." Zerox exclaimed, patting his Titan's back. The two returned to the group to hear Cassandra exclaim "And that was how I got crabs the third time."

"Do we really even want to know how you got to that story?" Number questioned as they rejoined the group. "No one asked. She simply began talking." Weiss pointed out, clearly disgusted with the story. "I thought it was a fun story." Cass exclaimed as she shrugged. "It probably also seemed appropriate." Ren muttered as the group started the trek back to Beacon. The Cabal had been pushed back so the town was starting to remove some of the wreckage and decompressed Cabal suits.

The group found an airship and flew back to Beacon, Zerox questioning "So who is in charge of this… castle?" Number responded "This is Beacon Academy, a school to teach kids how to be huntsman and huntresses." Cassandra gasped "This is a school! Wicked! What? Hang on… yeah. Steven says that the school is pretty cool too." Ruby whispered to Yang "This is the girl that Number had a crush on before you? She seems… nice." Yang nearly growled "All I know is if she touches me again I'm going to beat her to a pulp."

"Then come at me bra!" Cass exclaimed as she spun around and held her arms out. Yang's fists tightened until Number stepped in between them and exclaimed "Easy you two. Let's not start a fight in the middle of the courtyard." Cassandra shrugged and replied "Sure thing. Truce?" Cassandra held out her hand to Yang as a sign of good faith. Yang took a deep breath and replied "Alright. Truce, as long as you keep your hands to yourself."

"Deal."

The two shook and Number let out a sigh of relief, prompting Zerox to announce "So we were going to meet the headmaster of this school?" Ruby exclaimed "Here! I'll take you to him!" Number added "I'll show Cassandra around so she won't get lost and start putting holes in the wall to find her way around." Cassandra stomped her foot and huffed "I will not!"

"How many walls is the Tower still repairing after your last adventure?"

"Shut up!"

Zerox-2 chuckled "Alright Ruby, lead the way. Number, keep Cass out of trouble." Ruby and Zerox went on their own path while Number and the rest of the teams headed towards the dormitories. "So is this where every students lives?" Cassandra questions. Blake responded "Yes, each team lives in one room."

"So it isn't separated between guys and girls?"

"No, why would they do that?"

"I don't know. They did when I was in school. I bet they thought we would have raging sex parties. Do any of those happen here?"

Weiss quickly responded "No, we are mature here." Number added "To a degree." Weiss rolled her eyes as Blake exclaimed "This is our room and the room across is Team JNPR's room." Jaune exclaimed "It's been a pretty rough day, so we're going to get something to eat before calling it a night." Team JNPR said their goodbyes and headed to the cafeteria as Cassandra repeated "So this is your room?"

Yang used her scroll to unlock the door and Cassandra waltzed in like she lived there. She looked around and exclaimed "Those beds look really dangerous." Yang went to the desk and took a seat, proclaiming "It's perfectly safe, as long as no one fucks with the supports." Weiss went and took a seat on her bed while Blake laid across hers and pulled out a book. Number sat in his corner while Cassandra pulled up a chair next to him.

"Hey Number," Yang called, "I have a few questions for you." Number looked over at Yang, who had a sly smile on his face that put him a little on edge. "Okay, shoot." Number replied, ready for almost anything. "Here we go." Blake muttered as Yang leaned forward. "When you were on Earth, would you… I don't know… hook up with any other EXOs?" Yang saw the look on Number's face and knew he would be blushing if he could.

"No." Number replied. "Yes." Cass corrected. Number elbowed Cassandra in the side, Cass defending "Hey! Don't get mad at me for telling the truth."

"They don't need to know that!"

Blake lowered her book and responded "Yang's been curious. She asks us what we think about the same subject, so simply answer her so we may move on." Number sighed "Alright, yes, I do have the occasional 'hook up' with other EXOs." Yang's smirk remained on her face as she replied "I knew it. So how do you do it?"

"What?"

"How. Do. You do it?"

Number crossed his arms and replied "I'm not telling you that." Yang's gaze turned to Cassandra and questioned "Do you know how he does it?" Cassandra leaned back in her chair and asked "What is your theory about it?"

"Well, I was thinking there was either a built in… prosthetic… for both male and female EXOs, or there is an attachment they can simply stick on."

Cass chuckled and replied "Wow, she's good. Are you sure you haven't slept with her?" Number replied aggressively "Yes! I have not slept with Yang!"

"Has she looked through your inventory? Or have you shown her but you didn't let her touch it?"

"Cassandra!"

Cass rolled her lilac eyes and answered Yang "From what I've heard, Male EXOs have an attachment that functions like a human penis." Number rubbed his optic sensors and groaned "Why are we discussing this?" Yang put a finger to her lips and shushed Number, questioning "So, what about the females?" Cassandra turned to Number and exclaimed "I'm not sure. Number? Care to share?" Number groaned "Sure! Why not! Female EXOs, if they desire, may have an artificial vagina installed. It functions the same way a human vagina would, except for the ability to create a child."

Yang nodded and exclaimed "Next question, for the male EXOs and their 'attachment'… does anything… you know." She started making jerking gestures around her hips and then opened her hand near her head. Number stared at her with a raised 'eyebrow' as Cassandra giggled, Number questioning "Are you asking me if I ejaculate?

"Yes."

"Ugh, why so much curiosity?"

"Oh, you know. I'm just a naturally curious girl."

Cassandra stood up and grabbed the back of Number's chair, dragging it out into the hall and shutting the door behind her. Cass planted her back on the door and locked it as Number knocked to be let back inside. "Now, it's time for some girl talk!" Cassandra cheered, causing the knocking to stop. Cassandra squealed as she dragged a chair over to Yang "Finally! I have some girlfriends I can talk to! Do you know how annoying it is to not have a single girl on your fireteam other than you?" Yang shook her head and questioned "So what do you want to talk about?"

"Weapons! Where did you girls get yours? I know Ruby got my fucking sniper rifle, but what did you girls get?"

Yang pulled out her shotgun, Cass naming "Found Verdict?! He gave you that!?" Yang placed the shotgun across her lap and caressed it, exclaiming "Yes he did."

"Damn, what about you Blake?"

Blake pulled out Last Word and pointed it up, causing Cassandra to pull hers out and cheered "We're revolver sisters!" Blake commented "It's a little big if you ask me."

"It's not the size of the caliber that matters, it's the amount of force behind it!"

Weiss pulled out her Perun's Fire Fusion Rifle, causing Cass to gasp "He gave you one of his Iron Banner weapons!? Holy fucking shit!" Weiss exclaimed "He told us about the Iron Banner, and how he was a Champion."

"Was? He still is. No one has beaten his rap sheet for the Banner. As far as Lord Saladin is concerned, Number is still the best there is."

Cassandra opened her inventory and pulled out a dull grey sniper rifle with camo netting on the top of the scope. "This is Patience and Time, an exotic sniper rifle that Number gave me. It's my favorite." Cassandra exclaimed, slowly caressing the barrel. Yang raised an eyebrow as she watched Cassandra pull the sniper rifle close. "You have a crush on the big bot." Yang stated with a completely serious tone. Cassandra had a small smile on her face as she replied "Is it that obvious? Too bad Number never picked up on it."

Cassandra started to chuckle to herself and exclaimed "I always dropped these tiny hints that I liked him. I guess when it comes to guys, meat or metal, you have to be obvious or else they won't pick it up." Yang didn't smile at Cass' joke, instead she kept her serious face as her hand wrapped around Found Verdict's butt stock. There was a knock at the door and Cass exclaimed "I'll get it!" Cass jumped up to answer the door to find Number, Zerox-2 and Ruby. "Number said you were having girl talk." Ruby exclaimed as she entered the room.

"Those beds look incredibly dangerous." Zerox pointed out as he looked into the room. "I know! So what's up?" Cassandra questioned as she put Patience and Time on her back.

"I just talked with Headmaster Ozpin and he's allowed us a room along with these devices called scrolls."

Zerox-2 handed Cassandra her scroll and continued "Come on. We've got a busy day tomorrow. We're assessing the status of all of our ships and seeing if we can piece together a working ship. We may be light-years from Earth, but the Darkness is here and we need to update the Tower." Cassandra nodded and the Guardians headed out, leaving Team RWBY in their room. "Yang, you might want to let go of the butt stock before you break it." Blake exclaimed, causing Yang to finally let go of her shotgun. "Am I sensing a bit of jealousy Yang?" Blake questioned as she lowered her book. Yang stood up and nearly shouted "Who does she think she is!? For the past month I've been flirting with Number and yesterday he finally admits that he likes me! And now she shows up and finally wants to get him to go out with her!?"

Yang was pacing the room as she ranted, everyone's head following her as she did. "Hell no! Am I letting this bitch just come in and take Number out from underneath me!" Yang continued. She turned and pointed at the rest of the team and declared "And all of you are going to help me!" All of the others looked at each other and nodded, Ruby responding "What do you need us to do?"

"Just about anything you can, because right now ladies, we are at war."

A/N: Oh shit! We got some baby mama drama up in here! Looks like we've got a rivalry between Cass and Yang, and the prize is Number. Anyway, hope everybody enjoyed the chapter and more of Cass' craziness. Until next update!
