Chapter 11

"Rights Activists My Ass!"

Vale Harbor

Days after the baseball game

"Morning, sleeping beauties! Its me, Logan Somers, bringing you some news! You kidees better get your party clothes ready because the Vytal Festival is up around the bend! In Forever Falls, Independence Soldiers are kicking some serious Terror butt in the fight for freedom and the question of the people of Vytal. Also still no sign of the Apache since White Feather, or Greg Anderson if you prefer, shot her right eye out. In Rabbit-Hole Dust Mines, Independence Soldiers have moved in and cleared the entire area of Archne, now using the place as a outpost. In Vale, another dust store was robbed today as the trouble increases. So in other words, kidees, be careful not to steal or you'll get a shotgun in the face. And thats the news. This is Logan signing out."

Raiden and Rick were practicing their breakdancing in the training room after escaping Prof. Ports class. Raiden was resting while Rick was doing flares non-stop. "Can't wait for the festival," Raiden said as he took a sip from his bottle of water.

Rick stood up and looked at Raiden. "Can I talk to you for a sec?" he asked in Korean.
Being around Rick for a bit, you tend to learn Korean from him. "Sure, what's up?" Raiden replied back in Korean as well.
Rick came over to Raiden and sat down beside him. "I've been feeling...strange," Rick said as he took a sip from his bottle of water.
"Like what strange?" Raiden replied.
Rick let out a long sigh as he looked at the ceiling. "It's about Blake."
Raiden nodded as he wiped his forehead. "What about her?"
Rick groaned as he cupped his face with his hands. "I've been having, feelings...towards her. Like love stuff."

"Oh someones in love!" Logan says coyly on the intercom before going silent again. At this point, RADR team gave up on figuring out how he does it.

Rick lowered his head down in embarrassment. "Yeah, I do have feelings for her," he said in Korean.
Raiden nodded as he popped his knuckles. "Hey listen, it's okay that you like her," he replied in Korean.

Meanwhile in Vale...

Team GRVL walked down the street as the people of the city were setting up for the Festival. Greg was looking around in amazement since most of the places he's been to in his world are either torn apart by the war or were heavily fortified. Velvet also helped point out places and tells some of the history about them. Randi had Leland in a headlock when he started moving towards an explosives store. Greg spotted a cafe and suggested that they could have breakfast there. As they walked towards the cafe, they spot Team RWBY and waved at them as they waved back. Team GRVL sits down and after a waitress takes their orders, Greg begins to speak.
"I'm amazed by this town's design and structure. I mean this is the first time in ten years I've been into a town that isn't destroyed, fortified or behind enemy lines." Greg comments as the waitress gives the team glasses of water. Randi raised her eyebrow at the statement.
"Wait a minute. Greg, are you saying that you've never seen any normal places in your life?" Randi asks in disbelief while Batista rolled his eyes at the question Randi asks. Sometimes he wonders if she inherited her mom's blonde moments.
"Well except for San Antonio before the war began, pretty much. Though Rio de Janerio was nice looking until we attacked, but that was Federation Territory so that doesn't count." Greg replied before drinking some water from his glass.

"Wait. You actually attacked a city filled with people!?" Randi exclaims in shock as Batista slammed his head down on the table, groaning at his friend's reaction.
"Well those people didn't give a flip about the 23 million American innocents they killed when they hacked into ODIN. In fact, they had supported the government on its plans and killed every American that was visiting Brazil when the war began. I have no sympathy for the Federation civies. They will probably be sent to refugee camps under US control. They get treated well there though a lot of soldiers will call them names and be disgusted by the Hispanic Fed civies. So I personally think they had it coming." Greg retorts. He can remember the time that a group of US soldiers tried to help out a wounded Federation civie. The man would've survived, but after being patched up, he thanked the medics by pulling the pin of the grenade he had on his person. After that lesson, the soldiers decided to search the wounded of traps or just simply shoot the wounded Fed civies.
"Can we change the subject now? I really don't want to talk about this." Greg requested, not wanting to think about the war he had gone through. Fortunately the food arrived and the team got to talk about things to do in Vale as they ate.

"Well maybe we can find some clothes for you, Greg. After all it can be a problem if you wear that uniform all the time." Leland pointed out as he ate his eggs and bacon. He had a valid point though. Greg can't just walk around in his USMC or Ghost uniform all the time.
"Okay then. After that, we can stop by the explosives store to get some components for your Big Boys, Boom-Boom. Then we can go to that weapons store for ammo and finally Velvet can take me to that music store so I can get the guitar I'm looking for." Greg restates the plan, pausing to eat and swallow a bite of his omellet. Everyone nodded their heads in agrement as they finished eating. After paying the bill, Team GRVL set out to enjoy the day.

An hour later

Team RADR decided to go to Vale today. They were walking down the street when they saw a couple police in front of a robbed Dust shop. Raiden walked towards the police. "What happened here?"
The police man looked at the Ghost. "Another Dust robbery. Fourth time this week."
Raiden nodded as he looked at the broken window. "Any leads?"
Another police man came up to Raiden. "Aren't you too young to ask us kid?"
Raiden showed his ranking on his shoulder. "I'm Sargent Raiden Williams. Now, any leads?"

"Well you have to speak to Agent Recon over there since the A.O.V. is taking over this case. Lets go back to the station, boys." The officer says as the police leave the scene, being replace by A.O.V. agents and forensic scientists. RADR team spots the dog Faunus agent insde the store, talking to one of the female human agents. They decide to approach him. They heard the conversation more clearly as they got closer.
"This is strange. The White Fang would never be interested in robbing Dust stores. Never the less, Agent Linda, send your findings to HQ." Recon ordered as the female agent nodded before going towards the laptop set up on the counter.

Recon then noticed the Ghosts. He recognized them from the Forever Falss field trip. "Hey, you're team RADR right?"
Raiden nodded as he walked up to Recon. "Sargent Raiden Williams. Those guys are PFC's Alex Williams and Rick Grimes and that's Corporal Derrick Haven."
Recon stood up and looked at Raiden. "Nice to meet you Sargent. Im Agent Recon of the Agency of Vytal or A.O.V."
Raiden scratched his cheek as he looked at the shop. "Any leads?"
"Well, we've gotten leads that the White Fang have been robbing shops for awhile now. But they were never interested in this before," Recon said.
Derrick came over to the dog faunus. "So, you know why they're doing this?"
Recon shook his head. "No idea yet."

"Maybe its the Terrors who are robbing the stores." Greg says as him and his team walk towards the scene. Greg now wore light blue jeans, a white shirt and a blue plaid button up shirt over the white t-shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Greg kept his desert colored ball cap on but had a backpack on with his Ghost uniform and a other set of new clothes in it.
"No, Lance Corporal Anderson. Its not the Terrors. Besides our informants in the White Fang says that they are starting to rob these stores but still unsure why." Agent Recon replies, turning towards Team GRVL.

Alex smirked at Greg. "What are you wearing Mud-" Alex started to say until Rick covered his mouth.
"Shut up you idiot," Rick said in Korean.
Raiden shook his head at his brother and looked back at Greg. "Got yourself new clothing?"
Greg nodded and poitned his head at Velvet. "Yeah, Velvet and the guys wanted to get me some new clothes."
Raiden smiled. "Maybe I'll get myself some new clothes as well." he said. He saw that te RWBY was walking down the sidewalk. He smiled when he saw his girlfriend, Yang. He waved at team RWBY. "Sup guys!" He noticed that Rick was shuffling nervously. "Hey, tell her soon Rick," he said in Korean.
Rick shot Raiden a confused look. "What?! Are you crazy?" he replied in Korean. He saw Raiden wink and turned back to team RWBY.
"What's going on?" Ruby asked.
Recon looked at them. "Dust robbery, fourth time this week."

Well the rest of you guys have fun! Velvet wants to take me to the music shop and I really want a guitar since my old one is back at the Ghost HQ so later!" Greg yells out as he and Velvet start running in a race to the music store. Leland and Randi stay behind and decide to stick with the other to teams for now.

Weiss just scoffed at Recons answer. "Typical. Those White Fang are just animals," she said as she crossed her arms.
"They're just misguided Weiss," Blake replied. Recon nodded at Blakes statement.
"True, they've been pushed way to much," Recon said.

Meanwhile...

"Yes! I win!" Velvet cheered as she did a victory dance outside of the store. Greg smiled at this and when Velvet realized that everybody was looking at her, she stopped and looked sheepishly as well as embarrassed. Greg holds the door open and both of them stepped inside the store.

Back with the Ghost's

"Sir. Head Chairman wants to speak with you." The female cat faunus agent sitting at a folding table in front of a laptop said to Recon, holding out a phone to him.
"Excuse me for a second." Recon said to the teams as he walked over and talked to his boss on the phone.

"Yes, sir?" Recon asks as he places the phone near his ears.
"Agent Recon, I'm surprised to hear that you are on the field instead of being on the Cyclops. Anyway, I managed to twist the arms of the commitee board to allow you to have clearence to all classified documents in the archives. Also I hear that the White Fang is starting to rob Dust stores in Vale." The Chairman replied as he looked at some files regarding the White Fang.
"That's correct, sir. I'm already working on the case and will keep you updated."
"Very well, Agent Recon. Good luck." The Chairman hung up. Recon gave the phone back the female agent before walking towards the Beacon students again.

By now, Blake and Weiss were having a full blown argument. "You are a judgmental little girl!"
Weiss made a shocked expression. "I'm judgemental?! The White Fang are terrorists."

An hour later

Teams RWBY, RADR and GRVL came back to Beacon, the argument still going. Team RADR was in team RWBY's dorm, trying to stop the argument. "Hey, hey! You two have been fight back and forth for way to long now! Just stop!" Derrick yelled at the two.
"Hey, I've been a victim of the White Fang for my entire life. They've having a war against my family. My friends, gone. Entire cargo trains, stolen."
Blake twitched her eye. "It's because of you people that pushed the White Fang to do this! You people like Cardin or your family, always neglecting the Faunus!"
"It's not my fault! They're animals!"
Rick looked at the two. "Please you two, this will not solve anything."
Weiss shot him a glare. "The White Fang have been at war with my family for years! Blake has been defending them for reasons she doesn't know!"
"WELL MAYBE WE'RE TIRED OF BEING PUSHED AROUND!" Blake yelled.

Moments earlier, Team GRVL's room

"...I see a red door and I want it painted black. No color anymore than I want it to turn black. Even if I fade away, then you have to face the facts! Its not easy to see when your whole world is bla-" Greg was singing while playing the new guitar he got, but was interrupted by a yell from team RWBY's room.
"WELL MAYBE WE'RE TIRED OF BEING PUSHED AROUND!"
The yell made Greg jump in surprise and he looked out his team's door with the others who had been watching him practice. They saw Blake run out of Team RWBY's dorm and down the hall.

"Uh should we go after her and see what's wrong?" Leland asked, lifting up the welders visor he was wearing while creating more of his Big Boys. Greg looked at him before turning back towards the hallway Blake ran down. Rick came running out of Team RWBY's room and tried to go after her but she was no where to be seen.
"I don't know, Boom-Boom, but I think it should be her team and RADR to solve this problem. Unless she comes to us, I think its best for her teammates and Rick to help her on this one." Greg answered as Team GRVL quietly goes back into their room and silently closes the door.

Rick kept looking around the academy for Blake. 'Blake!" he shouted as he ran. His eyes were tearing up but he held them back. "Mom wouldn't want me to cry," he said as he ran. He made it outside and saw Blake. She had her hands on top of her bow and started taking it off. "What are you doing?" he thought. His eyes widened when he saw the Blake had cat ears. "She's a Faunus?"

"...My once green sea turns a deeper blue. I could not fore see this thing happening to you. If I look hard enough into the setting sun! My world will laugh with me before the morning comes! I see a line of ca-" Greg once again is interrupted, this time to the sound of his scrolls ringtone. Velvet smiles at him as he answers the scroll.
"Hello? There better be a good reason why you interrupted my guitar playing, buddy." Greg replies frustrated until he sees a familiar face.
"Oh Agent Recon! Sorry about that! Didn't mean to be rude... Really?..Uh hu... Okay we'll be there tomorrow night." Greg talks before closing the scroll. He turns to his team with a grin.
"Looks like we got our first unofficial assignment in a few days." Greg states, making his team cheer in excitement.

Both team RWBY and RADR were shocked. Weiss sat down on her bed arms crossed. Raiden had his helmet off, with Yang leaning on him. Derrick was worried about Rick while Ruby fell down on the floor. They saw the door open to see Rick, tears streaming down his eyes. "She's gone," he muttered in Korean.
Raiden looked at Rick and stood up, walking towards Rick. "Rick, are you okay?" he asked in Korean.
Rick looked at Raiden, his eyes not able to hold any more tears. He hugged Raiden, crying his eyes out. "She's gone. She's gone," he whimpered in Korean.
Raiden stroked his friends back, trying to ease him. "It's okay Rick, calm down," he replied in Korean.

"So whose all going, Greg?" Leland asked as he worked on his Big Boys. Randi and Velvet were trying to find black clothing for each other while Greg worked on the gift Independence gave him a while back. The gift was an M40 sniper rifle with a brown wooden stock similar to the ones used in a war on Earth in a place called Vietnam. Greg appreciated the gift because it was the same rifle type used by Carlos Hathcok during Vietnam and was another up yours to the Apache.
"Well all of our team as well as RADR. They might have Alex sit this one out though." Greg answers, polishing the wooden stock of his rifle. "Mainly because they suspect that there will be a lot of White Fang and Recon is worried that Alex will use real bullets and try to kill them. Personally I think that is the wisest choice, because he and I dislike each other. He hates me, because I'm a hispanic Texan, and I dislike him, because of his racism towards me. He can just be a jerk sometimes."
"Yeah. Sounds like Lexie is a prick." Randi comments, purposely saying Lexie instead of Alex. Team GRVL all agreed to that comment.

Rick ended up falling asleep after cry for a long time. Raiden laid him down on the chair before resting his back on the wall. He rubbed his face and sighed. "He hasn't been like that since Chloe died," he said as he placed his head on the wall. Yabg sat beside him, resting her head on his shoulder.
"Who's Chloe?" Ruby asked as she stood up.
"She was Ricks mother," Derrick replied, fighting back emotions. "S-she died during the ODIN strike. He lost himself when he saw Chloe being crushed by a falling building."
Radian nodded, tears brimming in his eyes as well. "Out of all of us, Rick suffered the most. He's been going in an out of traumatic episodes ever since."

"Maybe guys. However Greg has the worst of it outta all of us. He has no remaining living relatives, witnessed his mother being killed and her corpse raped, and had his father die in his arms. Not to mention having to go through life being discriminated as a Hispanic." Logan said from the doorway, making Alex fall over in his chair in surprise. Logan had a somber look on his face as he pitied Rick. However he had to remind them about the youngest Ghost and the pain he had gone through.

Raiden wasn't surprised by Logan appearing out of nowhere. "I know Lo. But Rick has been through a lot as well. The last time we saw his old man, he wasn't doing good. Rick next to Greg has suffered a lot."
Logan nodded as he walked over to Rick. "Want me to put him in your dorm Rai?"
Raiden nodded with a weak smile. "Sure Lo." Logan nodded and picked up Rick. He walked out of the dorm and Raiden rested his head on top of Yangs hair. "She's so cute when she's like that," he thought. He took in a deep breath and looked at Alex and Derrick. "You two can go on without me if you want to sleep."
Derrick nodded. "Sure thing Raiden. Come on idiot," Derrick said as stood up.


A few nights later...

"Okay. This is Sniper Team 1. We are in position inside the bridge of the ship. What is Alpha, Bravo and Charlie Teams' status, over?" Greg said into his com as Velvet adjusted the spotter scope. Greg was wearing his black Ghost uniform with his Ghost mask on. He also wore a black ball cap instead of his desert Marine cap. Velvet had on Greg's spare uniform minus the armor and had a black cloak with a hood on as well. Greg had a vantage point of being able to see the entire dock area clearly.
"Alpha is in position in the warehouse marked number 2." Batista replied. He and Randi wore black clothing versions of their combat clothes.
"Bravo in position behind the wall over to the right of the shipment recieving area." Raiden answered while Alex complained about not being assigned as sniper.
"Charlie inside the container is ready." Derrick answered while Rick peeked through the hole in the door.

Raiden pulled down his Ghost mask, pulling the bolt on his rifle. He looked at Alex who was bickering not being the sniper. "Shut it Alex," Raiden whispered to him.
"Fine, for Mud... I mean Greg," Alex said when he saw Raiden giving him a look.
"Good," Raiden said. He kneeled down and cupped his hands, waiting for the command. "Ready when you are people."

"We may have to wait a while until someone shows up. Just keep you- Wait. I see two figures on top of Warehouse 3. Its Blake and some monkey Faunus that I don't know of." Greg stated as he zoomed in on Blake and the Faunus monkey.

Rick widened his eyes when he heard Greg say that. "What? She's here?" He tried to peer out of the hole. He got pulled back by Derrick.
"Rick, listen to me. We have a job to do. We can worry about her later," he said as he looked back through the hole.
Raiden had a surprised expression on his face. "Watch your fire people, we have Blake and an unidentified monkey Faunus. Watch your fire."

"Heads up. Unknown aircrafts are inbound to the cargo shipment." Batista informs as the hovercraft fly over his and Randi's position. The hovercraft circle the area as two of them land nearby the shipment containers. The doors open and a couple of armed White Fang soldiers step out onto the docks. The White Fang begins to hook up cables to a container and a hovercraft lowered a hook to attach to the container. While this was happening, a third craft lands and a man steps out, wearing a white trench coat and a black bowler hat. Greg sighted in on the new arrival as Rick turned on the hidden mic so the teams can listen in on the conversations.

"C'mon people let's move it! We're not the most inconspicuous thieves right now," the man in the white trench coat ordered.
"Who's bossy mic whitey?" Greg asked as he kept the man in his sights.
"That's Roman Torchwick, one of the most wanted men in Vytal," Velvet answered for him.
"Alright people let's do this by the books and- Wait. Blake just jumped off the building. She's going for Torchwick!" Raiden said as he climbed up over the wall.

"Wait a minute, Raiden! They haven't fired yet. Must be because she used to be one of them. Wait for the Go-Code." Greg quickly speaks into his com as he watches Blake tried to talk them. Suddenly he spots two White Fang soldiers board the ship he and Velvet were on. They moved towards the bridge with Dust firing weapons in their hands. Greg moved away from the window with Velvet following him. He motioned her to stay put and moved down the hallway with a silenced Dust pistol in his hand. He hid in an alcove as the two White Fang soldiers enter the hall.
"I still can't believe those two human soldiers managed to survive that fight we had in Forever Falls! How is that even possible?" The first White Fang questioned as they walked down the hall.
"I'm not sure, but-Wait." The second soldier stopped, holding his arm out and sniffing the air. Greg quietly switched the pistol's safety off.
"We got a human on the ship. I can smell him." The second WF soldier continued. Unknownst to him, Greg had grabbed the first WF soldier and knocked him out, silently dragging him into the alcove. The second WF soldier turned around and froze.
In front of him was a person in black clothing in the place of his friend. The figure grinned wickedly with its skull face leering at him. He responded with action. The WF soldier fainted. Greg simply dragged the faunus into the same alcove that the other WF soldier was. Once again, Greg stepped into the shadows and became what his group's name was. A Ghost.

"Alright, I'll stick by the shadows, see what's happening," Raiden replied as he put his helmet on. He started creeping along the wall near the containers with a silenced M9 pistol in hand. He maed it behind one of the containers and saw a WF soldier standing there. He whistled loud enough to get his attention. The WF started walking towards the sound, only to be found in a hold, a sleeper hold. The last thing he saw was a man with a skull mask on. He passed out and Raiden dragged him behind a container. "Derrick, I want you and Rick to move behind one of the containers. Use your secondaries for now."

While everyone was silently taking out the White Fang's back up troops, Velvet watched Blake through the spotter's scope as the black haired cat Faunus confronted Torchwick. Suddenly weapons were drawn and the fight began.
"All units: Go-Code Alpha! Go-Code Alpha!" Velvet cried into the com as Greg comes running back to the bridge. He transforms his weapon into Sniper Rifle mode and begins picking off WF soldiers, using specialized rounds that wouldn't kill, but would hurt like a hell. Leland and Randi moved out of cover and start attacking as well. Boom-Boom pressed a detonator and the crane exploded, knocking one of the hovercraft out of the sky. The dock transformed into a firefight zone within an instant.

Raiden took out his M4A1 and took cover. He peered up to look and fired a couple shots at a White Fang in the head. He went down and Raiden ran across the yard. "Greg! I need covering fire!"

Greg shifted his fire to provide Raiden support as Velvet spotted targets for him. Meanwhile a dozen White Fang soldiers fled while Boom-Boom chased them. Obviously the White Fang heard of his reputation and are scared shitless by the pyromanic. Randi was busy fighting off female WF soldiers while the men WF kept staring at her with lustful looks. However they were knocked out when a WF soldier was sent flying into them, courtousy of a certain grenade-launching Ghost. Suddenly a hovercraft was literally sliced in half while in the air. Also WF soldiers were being knocked around by flying swords. One WF soldier was hit so hard that he went flying through the bridge window and near crashed into Greg and Velvet.
"Hey guys! Whoever is throwing Tangos around better watch where they're throwing!" Greg shouts into the com in anger.

"Hey, don't look at me!" Rick shouted into the com as he punched a WF soldier in the face before throwing him. He was surrounded by a dozen WF soldiers and used his martial arts training to make short use of them. He then saw a girl with orange hair and green eyes with swords floating behind her. "Hey guys, we have a civi fighting here."

"¡Madre los dias!" Greg shouts in Spanish while he and Velvet duck when another WF soldier gets knocked into the bridge by the new arrival. After a couple more WF soldiers get thrown into the bridge, Greg and Velvet are forced to move to a different position, removing sniper support for the others temporarily.

"This is not good!" Raiden shouts as he ran across the yard. He nailed a couple more WF soldiers as he slide to cover. He sees that Rick is tearing apart the WF surrounding him while Derrick was taking care of the WF with his shotgun. He then saw that Alex wasn't at his spot anymore. "Shit."

"Whoa!" Leland cries out as a stray shot from a WF soldier hits a damaged Dust container, causing it to explode. Suddenly tracers shot in random directions, their origin the burning Dust container.
"No wonder these right activists are interested in this shipment! Some of those containers are full of Dust bullets!" Randi shouts out while she and Batista take cover behind a container. Suddenly Derrick speaks up on his coms.
"Rights activists my ass! These guys are radical terrorists!"

"I agree Big brother! We need to shut down this operation!" Raiden shouted into the coms. He peaked out of cover to observe before acting. He then saw Alex running across one of the warehouse rooftops. "Alex, what the hell are you doing?"
"Sorry Raiden, but I want in on this fight, but on my terms," Alex replied.
"Alex, don't be an idiot, we were ordered by Agent Recon to incapacitate them, not kill them!" Greg shouts into the coms.
"Why would I listen to a Faunus freak like him?" Alex replies.
"Alex, stand down! Stand down now!" Raiden shouted.

"Alex! Stand down and put the rifle away now!" Greg orders, shifting his aim at Alex. Alex simply flipped the bird at him, shouting:
"Fuck you, Mudface! I don't take shit from Federation fucks like you!"
This blew any chance Alex had recieved from Greg to stop being racist. Calling Greg a Federation lover was the last straw. Greg fired and nailed Alex in the face with a paint round he loaded in earlier by accident. Alex jerked back and falled on his back, knocked out.


A few moments later the fighting ended with Torchwick escaping and the A.O.V. Spec Ops teams arriving to clean up the scene. As A.O.V. Spec Ops soldiers arrested the WF soldiers that weren't able to escape, Agent Recon stormed over to the ambulance Alex was leaning on. Alex had a bruise on his entire face from the paint round as well as a black eye from Greg punching him after the fight in anger. While Alex was being verbally berated by the angry dog faunus agent, Teams GRVL, RADR (except Alex) and RWBY sat around on some crates and barrels talking.

Raiden took off his mask and placed it into his bag. He was shocked at his brother being like that. He may be racist but that act...it hurt him so much just too see his own brother doing that. He looked at his team, team GRVL and the two members of team RWBY. "That was something..." he muttered out. He then saw Yang and Weiss walking up towards the crates and Ruby stood up.
"Look Weiss, I can explain, she has kitty ears and they're kinda cute," Ruby said quickly.
Weiss walked up to Blake and looked at her for a bit. "Weiss, I want you to know I'm no longer associated with the White Fang. Back when I was..."
"Stop. Do you have any idea how long we've been searching for you? 12 hours," Weiss replied.

"Something is seriously wrong with Alex, guys. I can't believe he had the nerve to disobey orders and to call me a Fed. However what makes me really terrified about it now is that his rifle was loaded with live ammunition today." Greg whispers to his team and RADR, causing gasps and mumbling in worry. Greg had gone over to Alex after the firefight and punched him in the eye while taking the sniper rifle away from him. When he removed the magazine, he was horrified to see live ammo in it instead of Dust bullets that they were using. Had Alex been able to snipe, he would have killed multiple White Fang soldiers. Or worse, using it to end him.

Raiden looked at his brother before shaking his head. "He needs to lay off for a bit. As leader and brother, I'm banning him from doing missions for a couple months," he whispers into Greg's ear.
"Agreed," Greg replied.
Raidan nodded when he looked at Rick who had tears of joy in his eyes. "Tell her," he said in Korean.
Rick sighed as he looked at Raiden. "Soon, soon," he replied.
The Ghosts knew of Ricks affection to Blake for awhile now and they saw it when he ran after her when she ran away. Raiden looked back at Alex who was being scolded by Agent Recon. "Alex needs to learn or he'll end up dead," he thought. He looked at Yang who was standing near Ruby, bringing a smile to his face. "To be honest, she's like the sun," he whispered to Derrick.
