And I'm back from break, now ep 9 and 10 shit got real very quickly, this will be interesting to type once I get to that season and episode. Now here's some slightly good news (for me at least) updates will be slow soon because I'm going to get a job (finally I can get my lazy ass up and do something) which will take up my time. And this is a few months warning, once I graduate from high school I will be going to college like a normal person would, and because of that, updates yet again will be slow. Lastly got hooked on a few animes so that will delay me too until I finish them.
That's pretty much it with my warnings, so I'll shut up and let you enjoy this new installment.
Disclaimer: I can ask Trump for a loan of a million dollars to buy both companies….or I can use the money to train/buy assassins to assassinate him (if you don't see any updates without A/U assume I got arrested or training assassins. It can go either way.)
XXXXXXX
Drake sighed and looked directly at the 4 marines. "We have an infestation of Ceph on this planet."
At these words, the marines were shocked to the core. The thought of having the enemies that nearly cause an extinction of one planet returning shocked them which Drake understood.
"How?" Ray asked.
"I don't know, but if I remember during the final battle, the Ceph were making a portal from their world to ours, that may apply here." Drake explained.
"Fucking hell man, we just got out of fighting those Deadpool wannabe's, and now we have to fight them again! This is fucking bullshit." Ike groaned in annoyance.
Drake sighed and shook his head and looked at the Ed who under his helmet smirked like a madman and held up his LMG.
"So, we're going to war with the same enemies that nearly made mankind go extinct. I like the sound of it." Ed said with excitement.
Ike looked at Ed if he were crazy and asked. "How the hell can you like this situation?"
"Because we or I can get payback for what they did." Ed plainly stated.
With those words said, Ike stepped back a bit and contemplate about the situation. Many died during the wars because of the Ceph and one of them was Ike's mother.
"Ike, you and me both know you want revenge on those damn squids that cause pain and suffering for the rest of mankind, the soldiers and Nanosuit users before us stopped them from continuing, you heard what Drake said and with the Ceph here, we can be the next ones to stop the Ceph like the Nanosuit user before us did." Ike looked directly at Ed and nodded and pumped his shotgun with determination.
"Count me in." Ike said with a smile.
"Well, now since Ed put it that way, I may as well join too, I am the squad leader after all." Amy said.
"I have to keep this squad in check anyways, don't want any of you blowing up buildings for your own amusment can I." Ray said with a slight smirk.
Drake smiled and placed his hand on Ozpin's desk for the second time. The screens showed a large map of Remnant with the 4 kingdoms highlighted.
"The 4 of you need to update your maps, after that we can discuss one issue." Drake said.
With a nod the 4 marines saw a bar loading up in their HUD's and looked at Drake when the bar filled up. Drake nodded and highlighted a few spots on the map.
"Now after 'borrowing' from the military of this planet's recent activity, it turns out they have found key areas that the Ceph may be located." Drake pointed towards the small highlighted areas.
"One is a small island that's in between Atlas and Vacuo." He then pointed to the outskirts of Vale.
"This is mount Glenn, what I've read, the thermal readings went very cold possible Ceph activity." Drake then pointed towards another location which looked familiar.
"Next is the Emerald Forest, this is already confirmed after the first battle." Drake moved his finger to the final spot, a large island.
"And lastly this land mass called Menagerie. Only the military knew about the decrease in temperature underneath the land mass." Drake explained.
"So no one knows about unless they're military? Wow, bunch of assholes." Ike commented.
"Right! Anyways, what I can tell from the thermal readings, the level of coldness is much larger than the others, my Hypothesis: That's where the main base will be at but the Ceph aren't as dumb they made it obvious but I can tell the security in there is probably high, hell they might even contact the other base's for reinforcements, we might have to strike the other base's before we hit the big one." Drake suggested.
"I agree with my Uncle, Ceph are highly intelligent, they won't let something like this be unprotected. We have to strike slow, we have to aim for the small base's." Amy agreed.
"The easiest I can say we can take out is the one at the Emerald Forest, we might've put a large blow in their numbers already, we can continue the strike. The Marines and I will go in and take it out right no…" Drake didn't finish when all of team RWBY glared at him.
"Did I say something wrong?" Drake asked.
"Yes, you mean team RWBY, the Marines and I will go in and take out the base." Ruby corrected.
Drake sighed and looked at team RWBY. "Look, I saw what happened back there during initiation, you guys can't stand a chance against the Ceph, since they adapted to your planet's gravity they can now heal small wounds which makes them a bitch to fight. You girls are not ready to fight them, not yet at least."
"What do you mean, not yet?" Blake asked.
"After we take out this base, the next ones will be hard to take down with the 5 of us. We will train you and teach you how to take out a Ceph with ease." Drake explained.
"That seems reasonable, alright, come back safe then." Ruby said.
Drake smirked and patted Ruby's head and gave her a thumbs up.
"Besides the other incidents, when am I not safe?" Drake asked
"The story you told us." Ruby pointed out.
"...Smart ass." Drake muttered.
Ruby just stick her tongue out causing Drake the chuckle a bit and look at the 4 marines and nodded at them.
"We need a plan of action, we can't just bone rush it in." Drake suggested.
"Well, we can go in stealthily, or get a few of us to distract them." Amy suggested.
"Combine both, we get 2 of your marines to distract the Ceph while the rest of us goes in and set up charges in the reactor." Drake said.
"That can work too...Won't that cause a big reaction that will hurt the school and the land it's beneath?" Amy pointed out.
"Maybe, we won't know if you don't try." Drake shrugged.
Amy rolled her eyes and sighed. "Or we can avoid it by placing less charges to blow it up to lessen the damage."
"That can work too." Drake chuckled lightly.
"Still like Drake's idea." Ike voiced his opinion.
"Alright we…." Drake stopped when he saw Ray looking at Blake's bow and raised his brow at the sight.
"Ray, you ok there?" Drake asked.
"Um, I don't know, but I think my nano-vision is either glitched or she actually has ears under that bow." Ray said.
"What are you talking about?" Drake asked.
His eyes went from robotic blue to a robotic red and raised a brow. Blake panicked and looked at the 2 soldiers that were staring her down.
"Are you sure your vision thing isn't glitched?" Blake questioned.
"I would agree if Drake didn't see it." Ray took of his helmet showing his raven black hair that nearly reaches his eyes and his eyes being a cobalt black.
Ray reached for the bow until his hand was smacked away by an angry Blake.
"Don't you think you're invading someone's privacy?" Blake angrily asked.
"Actually you're right, why don't you take it off?" Blake gave Ray a hard glare until she saw the others with questioning looks and gave a deep sigh.
"Alright fine, I'll take it off." Blake hesitated but took the bow off showing off her cat ears.
"I'm a faunus." Blake muttered.
"A what?" Ike asked confusingly.
"Humans with animal like appendages and abilities." Drake explained.
"So, she can see in the dark and has nine lives." Ike joked.
"All Faunus can see in the dark...Fuck your joke." Drake sighed.
"And they can hear better than the average human, that's pretty cool." Ed said.
Amy came up to Blake a bit too close and took off her helmet to show her black hair tied to a bun and her brown eyes staring deeply at the ears.
"They look sooooooo adorable." Amy cooed.
Drake facepalmed and said. "I forgot that Amy is both a cat and neko fan."
"What's a neko?" Ruby asked.
"A human with cat ears or cat like appendages." Drake explained.
"Oh, are they real in your world?" Ruby asked.
"I can answer that Red." Ed said while taking off his helmet showing his dark brown hair and green eyes.
"They are fictional characters, I found a meme with a neko and the captions were 'DRUGS, is a dollar not spent genetically engineering catgirls for domestic ownership' which I find funny." Ed said with a slight chuckle.
"I don't want domestic ownership, I want to marry one." Amy said with hearts.
"Where the hell did you get this from?" Drake questioned.
"Mother." Amy stated bluntly.
Blake held a confused look and stopped Drake and Amy from continuing their conversation.
"Wait, you guys aren't affected by this?" Blake asked.
"Nah, us humans dreamt to have animal like features." Ed said.
"Pretty much what he said. I would be more concerned with your teammates than us." Drake said.
Blake looked at the RWY of team RWBY and saw each of their reactions.
Ruby looked confused and probably didn't care much about the cat ears. Yang held a small caring smile showing she doesn't care. Weiss, however, looked very angry and nearly burst.
"We had a Faunus in our team and we didn't notice it!" Weiss nearly yelled.
Drake gave a deep sigh and looked at Ike who nodded knowing what to say about this.
"Before…" Ike was cut off when Weiss started to saying bad things about the Faunus.
One thing struck Blake and that was the mention of the White Fang. She glared at Weiss and shoved her.
"Maybe we are sick and tired of being the lesser being…" Blake covered her mouth and immediately ran for the elevator.
"Blake wait!" Ruby tried to call for Blake but to now avail.
"Dammit Weiss! We have a fucking large mission here and you have to make this Faunus deal top priority, we don't have time to deal with this shit!" Drake yelled.
"It's not my fault that she's a former White Fang." Weiss shot back.
"IF SHE WAS IN THE WHITE FANG SHE WOULD'VE KILLED YOU WHEN YOU SLEPT!" Drake yelled except with more force.
Weiss wince when Drake yelled at her. She didn't see this side of Drake before and started to regret the moment she said anything about the Faunus.
"We're putting this mission on hold it seems, we got a runaway friend that needs our help." Drake said.
"Hey! I'm the leader, that's supposed to be my line." Ruby complained.
Drake sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose and looked at Amy.
"It's getting dark Uncle, I know you want to search for her and try to fix this but we can't right now, we can start the search tomorrow if that makes you feel better." Amy suggested.
"I don't need sleep Amy, you guys can sleep I'll look for her." Drake was about to rush it towards the elevator until he was stopped by Ray.
"Ray, get out of my way." Drake ordered.
"Sir, I'll go search for Blake. What the Gunnery sergeant is trying to say is, you need to make a plan for the upcoming fight, you don't need sleep right, use that to help you plan out more or find any faults in the original plan." Ray said.
Drake looked directly in Ray's eyes and sighed and looked at Amy who smirked at Ray.
"Ray is a capable man, he maybe 2 years older than Blake but he can still get along with people that has the same personality as him, I say go for it...And that he can be the Romeo while she's the Juliet." Amy smirked.
"What...oh, that's what you're implying." Drake chuckled and looked at a blushing Ray.
"I don't hold any feelings towards the catgirl, all I'm saying is that I think it's better for me to go since I do a lot of night ops anyways, I am the best candidate." Ray said with his blush still showing.
"Yeah, yeah. Go talk to her Romeo." Drake joked.
"Fuck you." Ray muttered.
"FUCK!" Ed yelled.
"YES!" Ike cheared.
Ray's eye twitched and walked out of the office before anything bad happens.
"You guys ok?" Drake asked.
"I bet that Ray will one day curse someone out or at least curse right in front of us. Pay up." Ike held up his hand motioning Ed to give him the money.
"I just lost 30 bucks...Fuck you Ray." Ed said over the comms.
"Up yours." Ray said through the comms.
"Is Blake the only sane one of this entire group?" Drake questioned.
Amy shrugged and link her hud to Rays camera and linked it to Drake.
Drake got the feed and saw Ray talking to Blake.
"You know, you should just explain yourself instead of bursting out like that." Ray said out of nowhere.
"What? how did you manage to find me?" Blake questioned.
"Ancient Japanese secret." Ray joked.
"Look, I know what you're saying but I'm not going back, you saw how they looked towards me, how can I go back." Blake said.
"Rhetorical question, oh how I love those. Look, I know it's hard to go back and try to explain yourself after that outburst but you should try at least." Ray said.
"How do you know, us Faunus have been through this racism all of our life to now. How do you understand how we feel?" Blake raised a brow when Ray took off his helmet and gave her a serious look.
"Your race isn't the only ones out there in the galaxy that has to go through what they're going through. During WW2 my race, the Japanese were under prejudice because of that war, the ones that lived in America were treated poorly, they were sent to camps or if they swore their loyalty to the United States, they were sent to war to fight your own kind, even then, my kind didn't even get acknowledged, my race isn't the only one that had to go through that, but I'll leave that to Ike. But what I'm saying is I've read and felt what you are going through, even then I went through prejudice before." Ray said calmly.
"I-I didn't know, I-I'm sorry." Blake said with a sad tone.
"Don't be, I hate it when people feel bad for me, I rather make the not worry." Ray waved it off and looked at the statue.
"I guess me convincing you to explain yourself is out of the question, so my next question is, what's your next course of action?" Ray asked.
"What?" Blake looked at Ray confusingly.
"I'm asking, what are you going to do next?" Ray repeated.
"I don't know to be honest, but I need to start somewhere." Blake answered honestly.
"I'll give you a suggestion, try and see if this White Fang is under these robberies." Ray suggested.
"Why are you helping me?" Blake asked.
"Why not. I was ordered to find you, but I sometimes alter my orders to fit me." Ray looked at the helmet and smirked.
"And I'm going to help you." Ray said.
"And so will I." A voice said.
Ray looked and saw a teen with messy blond hair and a monkey tail.
"Who are you?" Ray asked.
"I'm Sun Wukong, I came here for the Vytal festival." The teen now named Sun said.
"And you want to help?" Blake questioned.
"Why not?" Sun shrugged and looked at Ray.
"I said the samething. And I think it's a good idea, the more the better." Ray said.
"I guess." Blake muttered.
"Alright, I think we should head out now before my squad leader rush's over here and yells at me." Ray joked and started to walk towards an unoccupied Bullhead.
"Do you know how to fly one of these?" Blake asked.
"They're like the VTOL's I've flown before. How hard can this be?" Ray said.
The video feed was cut off and Drake looked at his now angered niece.
"He ignores orders?" Drake said with slight amusement.
"That bastard will get the shit beat outta him." Amy said with steam pouring out of her ears.
"I think we should let them have their 'alone time' and see what happens from there." Drake said with a smirk.
"Uncle, you know how to fuck with someone's day don't yah." Amy said with a smirk.
"Yep, now I'm going to start what Ray suggested." Drake then went to the table and started to look at the possible entry way of the Ceph base.
Amy sighed and shook her head at her uncle and walked towards the elevator with her team.
"This is going to be a long ass war."
