Chapter 9
3rd person
Emerald Forest
10:00 am
The group heads out of the forest and into another abandoned series of structures as the Nevermore follows them from the air. They spread out when it passes above, concealing themselves behind some of the stone blocks with their allies as it perches on a high column and caws.
"Well, that's great!" Yang comments, annoyed. Jaune looks behind them just as the Death Stalker bursts onto the clearing.
"Ah, man, run!" The group emerges from their hiding spots and causing the Nevermore to rise up into the air.
"Nora, distract it!" Ren orders. Nora obliges, running out from her block and jumping through the feather projectiles before reaching behind her, launching several shells from her grenade launcher, bursting into pink electricity when they hit the Nevermore, and causing it to retreat.
Unaware of the Death Stalker rushing up behind her until Blake and Ren perform a cross-slash with Gambol Shroud and StormFlower against its shell. Weiss lands next to Nora so she can create a jumping platform beneath them, leaping to safety while Blake and Ren are now being chased.
"Go, go!" Pyrrha stops, runs beside Jaune and gets out Miló, firing red shots along Ren's green blasts for a second until it reaches them and tries to swipe, prompting the group to run again.
The eight race over the ancient stone bridge, not noticing the Nevermore closing in on them until it uses its giant wings to shatter the path right in the middle, forcing Ruby, Weiss, Yang, Nora, and Jaune closer to the central collection of columns and Blake, Ren, and Pyrrha on the other side with the Death Stalker. Ruby fires at the retreating Nevermore while Blake is beaten back by the Death Stalker.
"They need help!" Jaune comes to the edge of the break in the bridge, "Man, we gotta get over there!"
"Let's do this!" Nora runs up beside him.
"Yeah, but, uh... I can't make that jump." Jaune looks down at the misty abyss. Nora smiling diabolically at him, she laughs as she knocks him back, turning her weapon to its full length form, and jumps to the edge of the bridge.
Jaune notices exactly what she's about to do.
"Oh, wait!" But it's too late, as Nora slams the hammer into the bridge and throws Jaune to the other side screaming, 'No, no, no, no, no, no!'
Nora places one foot on the hammer and fires it off the collapsing section of bridge, launching her to slam into the face of the Death Stalker. She fires it just as the stinger comes down to get her, and blasting her away from its reach, accidentally knocking into Blake and making her fall from the edge.
Blake sees the Nevermore above her and launches her whip so the gun's blade sinks into the edge of the bridge, circling around and leaping onto the Grimm's back. She dashes over its body, slashing the entire time, before jumping off and landing on the ruined platform at the top of the columns next to Ruby, then going over to Yang and Weiss.
"It's tougher than it looks!" Blake states as Yang ready's Ember Celica.
"Then let's hit it with everything we got!" Yang shouts.
The Nevermore approaches as Ruby, Blake, Weiss, and Yang set their weapons to fire a barrage of blasts at the bird, which it either dodges or takes harmlessly until it crashes through the columns and platform. The girls leap from one section of falling stone to the next until they reach the higher bridge on top, just below the cliffs.
"None of this is working!" Weiss states. Ruby watches Blake whip over to another section of the area and Yang fires round after flaming round at the Nevermore.
"I have a plan! Cover me!" Ruby blasts away as Weiss raises her blade and heads in.
Down below, the Death Stalker is still battling Jaune, Ren, Nora, and Pyrrha.
"We gotta move!" Jaune warns as they all rush towards it. The Death Stalker aims a claw at Pyrrha, but she deflects it with her Akoúo and slashes it with her blade. The scorpion recoils and swipes at her with its other claw, but Jaune is there to deflect it with his shield, knocking it back so Pyrrha can leap over and attack its face.
Ren runs up firing and gets on the stinger when it tries to hit him, shooting at the base between it and the tail while Nora fires more grenades at the attacking claws. Pyrrha hurls her javelin straight into one of the monster's ten eyes, making it throw Ren to the side.
"Ren!" Nora calls out as Ren hits the side of a stone block hard and falls to the ground, not getting back up. Jaune, though, manages to stand and notice the stinger is hanging limply.
"Pyrrha!" Jaune signals her.
"Done!" Pyrrha raises her shield and hurls it like a discus, slicing the stinger off, causing it to fall into the Death Stalker's head as Pyrrha retrieves her it when it rebounds.
"Nora, nail it!" Jaune orders her.
"Heads up!" Nora warns as she jumps on Akoúo, Pyrrha leaps as Nora aims her blast down to give herself a maximum lift, and she smiles the entire way up before twirling down until her hammer slams its head into the stinger, driving the point through the Death Stalker's head and crushing the bridge.
Jaune and Pyrrha bound over the monster to the land behind it, and Nora fires up and away behind them as the monster falls to its doom. Jaune lands on the ground on his back, Nora lands on her bottom, Pyrrha makes a crouched pose, and Ren simply walks over to them, panting and groaning until he just collapses… They end up watching the Nevermore get peppered with firepower.
Yang burns through her ammo on the Nevermore, landing a blow at its face and causing it to head right towards her, but she leaps for its open maw and forces the beak wide as she attacks.
Yang screams while firing a round with each syllable.
"I! Hope! You're! Hung! … gry!" She looks behind her and jumps back from its mouth, causing the creature to crash into the cliffs. Despite Yang's attempts, the Nevermore recovers quickly, and Yang smiles as she spots Ruby and Blake on the broken columns with Weiss rushing to the battle.
Yang passes her while the Nevermore starts to fly back up, but Weiss hops over to the ruin it's lifting off of and freezes the tip of its feathery tail to the ground, leaving it stuck in the same spot despite its attempts. Weiss backflips into a snowflake glyph, jumps and lands on the other side, running to the others.
Blake fires a portion of Gambol Shroud over to Yang, and the two tighten it between the columns so Ruby can jump on the center with Crescent Rose and bend it back into Weiss' black sigil, right next to the caster.
"Of course you would come up with this idea." Weiss states.
"Think you can make the shot?" Ruby asks.
"Hmm! Can I!" Weiss responds, confident. A second passes.
"Can't?" Ruby questions.
"Of course I can!" Weiss claims, profoundly.
Ruby looks forward and pumps Crescent Rose as Weiss turns the circle from black to red and releases Ruby, rose petals fly from her ascent. With each new shot, she gets closer and closer to the trapped Grimm until her scythe catches the Nevermore's neck in its blade and causes them both to fall to the cliff wall. Weiss raises her sword and creates a series of white circles up the wall, which Ruby dashes through while firing the entire way up. Yang, Blake, and an exhausted Weiss watch her climb up with the bird in her grasp until, both warrior and monster crying out, Ruby reaches the top of the cliff, circles up, fires one last shot, and decapitates the Nevermore in a shower of petals. She lands beside the severed head as the body of the giant Nevermore falls lifeless into the crevice below while the girls and, farther away, Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren watch.
"Wow…" Jaune admires as Ruby's cape and petals flow with the wind, looks down to her friends as they peer up.
"Well... That was a thing!" Yang comments as Ruby continues to smile.
Hernandez's P.O.V.
Uh, is it odd that I want something called popcorn?
It happens to all of us, you'll be fine.
Auditorium
10:40 am
"Russel Thrush. Cardin Winchester. Dove Bronzewing. Sky Lark. The four of you retrieved the black bishop pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team CRDL, led by… Cardin Winchester!" Ozpin states, the screen of the auditorium shows each of their profiles as the boys are lined.
The audience gives a wave of ovation, while four students walk up to the stage to take their places in front of the headmaster as their faces fill the screen.
"Jaune Arc. Lie Ren. Pyrrha Nikos. Nora Valkyrie. The four of you retrieved the white rook pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team JNPR." Ozpin lists, amid the clapping, Nora laughs and gives Ren a hug.
"Led by... Jaune Arc!" Ozpin announces. They are going to be a pain in the ass.
"Huh? L-Led by...?" Jaune replies, startled. You sure about that?
"Congratulations, young man." Ozpin congratulates him. A grinning Pyrrha offers a friendly shoulder bump to Jaune, but is knocked over and falls to his butt in front of the laughing audience. Yup.
"And finally: Blake Belladonna. Ruby Rose. Weiss Schnee. Yang Xiao Long," Ozpin motions over the four as they stand before him, "The four of you retrieved the white knight pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team RWBY. Led by... Ruby Rose!" Ozpin announces, Weiss looks to her right surprised, where Ruby is in shock as Yang goes over to hug her. Well shit. I didn't see that coming.
"I'm so proud of you!" Yang cheers.
"It looks like things are shaping up to be an... interesting year." Ozpin comments, amid the last round of cheers. Well damn right, you lil shit.
3rd Person
Dorm Room
8:00 am
Weiss Schnee sleeps soundly in her bed, her eyes flutter open and she stretches her arms above herself, yawning, while Ruby Rose, dressed in her strangely-colored school uniform, creeps up on her side and suddenly blows a whistle, causing Weiss to fall off the bed.
"Good morning, team RWBY!" Ruby announces, excitedly.
"What in the world is wrong with you?" Weiss accuses from the floor.
"Now that you're awake, we can officially begin our first order of business." Ruby ignores the question and moves on.
"Excuse me?" Weiss asks Ruby, while getting up and brushing herself off.
"Decorating!" Yang holds a collection of objects pillows, pamphlets, a candle holder in her arms and alongside her Blake Belladonna.
"What?!" Weiss exclaims.
Blake lifts her suitcase.
"We still have to unpack." It opens, spilling all of its contents, "Aaaand clean." Blake explains.
Weiss does not look very enthusiastic, especially when Ruby knocks her back again with the blow of her whistle.
"Aaaalright! Weiss, Blake, Yang, and their fearless leader Ruby have begun their first mission!" Ruby raises her fist into the air, "Banzai!" Ruby yells.
"Banzai!" Ruby with Blake and Yang do the same at both of her sides.
Yang places a poster of six guys in various poses named "THE ACHIEVE MEN" on her part of the room.
Weiss positions the painting of the Forever Fall forest to perfection and walks away.
Blake puts away her books on the shelves, picking up a copy of Ninjas of Love and widening her eyes as she warily looks around before putting it back.
Ruby positions Crescent Rose at an angle against the curtains so she can slash a diagonal portion off, they end up with admiring their handiwork… with the beds cramped together in the center of the room.
"This isn't going to work." Weiss states.
"It is a bit cramped." Blake agrees.
"Maybe we should ditch some of our stuff…" Yang proposes.
"Or we could ditch the beds... and replace them with bunk beds!" Ruby offers.
"Umm, that sounds incredibly dangerous." Weiss comments.
"And super-awesome!" Yang argues.
"It does seem efficient." Blake adds.
"Well, we should put it to a vote!" Weiss suggests.
"I think we just did." Ruby states. Blake thumbs up the idea, Yang makes a double-rocker gesture, and Weiss angrily curls her fists at her side. Decided, they rush at the beds, where sounds of jack hammering and sawing are heard until they gather back at the front of the room.
"Objective, Complete!" Ruby confirms.
While Weiss' bed is simply on the ground next to her art and luggage, Blake's bed is next to her books, which are used to raise Yang's bed over it by placing the novels on the posts, and Ruby's is hanging from ropes on the ceiling with a blanket used as a tent over it.
"Allllright! Our second order of business iiiiiiis...!" Ruby spins until she lands on her bed and a book lands in her lap, "Classes…"
"Now, we have a few classes together today. At 9, we've got to be-" Ruby pulls out a pencil.
"What?! Did you say 9 o'clock?" Weiss interrupts her, panicking.
"Uuuum…" Ruby attempts to respond.
"It's 8:55, you dunce!" Weiss chastises her, rushing out of the room and down the hall, the members of RWBY and JNPR peeking out from their doorways to look at her go.
"To class!" Ruby, flabbergasted until she decides to run out, followed by Yang, and Blake.
"Class...?" Jaune questions. Jaune loses his balance and ends up toppling Nora Valkyrie, Pyrrha Nikos, and Lie Ren on top of him. He manages to get out from under them and start dashing.
"We're gonna be late!" Jaune yells as Professor Ozpin and Glynda Goodwitch watch the two teams hurry through the school while Glynda looks at her watch, and Ozpin simply sips his coffee.
Hernandez's P.O.V.
Classroom
9:02
An axe blunderbuss weapon stands above a board displaying various species of Grimm. King Taijitu, Deathstalker, Beowolf, Boarbatusk, Nevermore, and Ursa all behind an elderly teacher.
"Monsters! Demons… Prowlers of the night! Yes, the creatures of Grimm have many names, but I merely refer to them as prey! Ha-ha!" Port explains. He's… odd, to say the least?
The members of RWBY, seated on the front row, are in varying stages of interest, Blake and Yang are sitting up and paying attention, Weiss is taking notes, and Ruby has her head propped in her hand as she takes a quick nap until she is woken back up by Port's bad joke, which receives a cricket-filled silence as a result.
Jaune sits further back right, while Hernandez's types down notes in the back everytime Port speaks.
"Uhhhh… And you shall too, upon graduating from this prestigious academy! Now, as I was saying, Vale, as well as the other three kingdoms, are safe havens in an otherwise treacherous world! Our planet is absolutely teeming with creatures that would love nothing more than to tear you to pieces! And that's where we come in. Huntsmen! Huntresses…" He gives Yang a wink, which she groans uncomfortably at, "Individuals who have sworn to protect those who cannot protect themselves! From what, you ask? Why, the very world!" Port explains.
A random student raises his fist. "Ayyyy-yep!" And stands like this for a moment as everyone looks at him strangely before sitting down, embarrassed.
"That is what you are training to become. But first, a story. A tale of a young, handsome man... Me! When I was a boy…" Port starts on a tangent. His words fade into the background when Weiss notices Ruby is more focused on writing on the paper in front of her.
"...Despite smelling of cabbages, my grandfather was a wise man. 'Peter', he told me…" Port continues.
The speech evolves into more 'blah's as Ruby snickers at her creation and shows it to her teammates, a general ball with limbs and head drawing of the teacher with stink lines coming from him and 'Professor Poop' written underneath. Blake and Yang are heard laughing, but makes Weiss only annoyed.
"Ah heh hem!" Port waits until he has their attention again, "In the end, the Beowolf was no match for my sheer tenacity, and I returned to my village with the beast in captivity and my head held high, celebrated as a hero!" Port ends his story and takes a bow as Weiss slowly gets more and more frustrated with Ruby.
"The moral of this story? A true Huntsman must be honorable!" Port states. Ruby is balancing an apple on a book with her pencil held only by her finger while making a silly face. This guy just loves to stroke his own ego…
"A true Huntsman must be dependable!" Port states as Ruby has just fallen asleep again. And you don't?
"A true Huntsman must be strategic, well-educated, and wise!" Port adds. Ruby not so subtly picks her nose, much to Weiss's building anger. Shush, we don't talk about that.
"So, who among you believes themselves to be the embodiment of these traits?" Port asks. You were the one to place a bet and 'lose' 20 strange coins.
"I do, sir!" Weiss still angry, she raises her hand. Uh… well will you look at her so… eager?
"Well, then, let's find out!" Peter turns to gesture at the creature's glowing red eyes as it shakes the cage that traps it, "Step forward, and face your opponent!" Port challenges her.
Weiss Schnee, now back in her regular attire, readying her Myrtenaster at the growling creature and her teammates cheer her on from their seats in the front row.
"Goooo, Weiss!" Yang cheers, raising her fist.
"Fight well!" Blake waves a small flag reading 'RWBY'.
"Yeah, represent teeeam RWBY!" Ruby cheers as well. You can't say that they aren't encouraging to one another.
"Ruby! I'm trying to focus!" Weiss Schnee states, lowering her sword and looking over at her 'leader'.
"Oh, um... Sorry…" Ruby apologises, looking sheepish.
"Allllright!" Port says, standing next to the cage, pulling out his axe, "Let the match... begin!"
Port announces and swinging down and breaks the lock, dropping the cage door and revealing the Boarbatusk inside, which immediately charges at Weiss. She uses Myrtenaster to deflect its attack and roll to the side, readying herself for its next move, while the boarbatusk stands a distance away from its enemy, studying her.
"Ha-ha! Wasn't expecting that, were you?" Port asks, rhetorically.
"Hang in there, Weiss!" Ruby encouragingly.
Weiss speeds towards the oncoming Boarbatusk, sticking her blade straight at its skull until they meet and is trapped in the beast's tusks. Weiss hangs on to the hilt, and is tossed around as she struggles to get her rapier back.
"Bold, new approach. I like it!" Port says appreciatively.
"Come on, Weiss, show it who's boss!" Ruby cheers on.
Weiss turns to glare at Ruby, only for the Boarbatusk to turn its head and rip the sword from her grip. Myrtenaster lands far away from her, and is knocked back by the creature.
"Oh-ho! Now what will you do without your weapon?" Port questions.
Weiss looks up just in time to see the Boarbatusk to charge again, rolling out of the way just in time to avoid getting trampled and make it crash into a desk. Weiss rushes at her sword and slides it back into her hand.
"Weiss! Go for its belly! There's no armor underneath-" Ruby advises.
"Stop telling me what to do!" Weiss interrupts, turning to Ruby as she obtains a hurt look at Weiss's rebuttal, meanwhile, the Boarbatusk leaps into the air and rolls into a ball, spinning rapidly in the air and landing on the ground, gaining speed until it launches itself at Weiss, but before it can come close enough, Weiss activates one of her blue white glyphs. Blocking the roll, leaping up into the now-black snowflake glyph and turning it blue again so she can drive the blade into the Boarbatusk's vulnerable stomach. It squeals and falls silent while Weiss gasps in relief.
"Bravo! Bra-vo! It appears we are indeed in the presence of a true Huntress-in-training!" Weiss stands up at attention from her exhausted position and Ruby continues to frown, "I'm afraid that's all the time we have for today. Be sure to cover the assigned readings, and… stay vigilant! Class dismissed!" Port announces as Weiss glares and turns away, walking hurriedly to the exit past her teammates. True huntress my ass.
"Sheesh, what's with her?" Jaune comments, watching her leave. The remaining members of team RWBY look at each other with the same question. She certainly has potential, but her ego needs to be handled… or she won't get very far. Even if she becomes a great huntress.
