Volume 1

Coal meets the mom

Flash back

It was a few minutes after coal and ray's match with team CRDL. Ozpin took them to his office as they entered ozpin sat at his desk while glynda stood next to him. Ozpin took a deep breath then asked. "Ray please explain why BK almost killed Mister Winchester?"

Ray was trying to think of a answer, ray didn't order BK to do it BK just does things like that on his own will. Coal stepped forward and said. "BK was protecting me after the match was over I deactivated my aura so it could recharge, cardin decided to sneak attack me with my aura down that attack would've put me in the infirmary."

Glynda pulled the footage of the fight on her scroll and handed it to ozpin after watching the fight he said. "I understand why BK did what he did but in the future please try to be more careful, cardin's father is one of the people on vale's council and has a lot of influence."

"Oh so is that how he got accepted into beacon?" Ray asked and ozpin slowly nodded his head then took a sip of his coffee.

"Now for your misson." Ozpin taps a few buttons on his desk and a holographic map of vale appeared the only thing out of the ordinary was a red dot that was a few miles outside the kingdom's border ozpin explained. "Miss Sarah has gathered information that suggest this small village is a white fang hideout. Your team will take a bull-head to the nearest village so they won't suspect anything it's a days walk from the village you land at to the target. Remember your misson is to find out if this is a white fang hideout then get back to the other village and come back. Is that clear?"

Coal and ray both said yes then they turned around to head back to their dorm to tell vergo and leo. As the elevator door closed glynda turned to ozpin and said. "I know your worried about them but they are the best fighters in their class."

Ozpin took another sip of his coffee and said. "I still don't like sending my students to their possible grave."

Glynda placed her hand on his shoulder and said. "They've survived worse and they ain't alone they have their friends with them."

Ozpin looked at glynda and smiled she was right and he know it.

After the team got back from the cafeteria ray explained the misson to vergo and leo, coal was checking his weapon and thinking about the talk he had with blake.

"Cool are first real misson and we have sometime to prepare." Vergo said as she opened the mini fridge and grabbed a big bottle of alcohol. "So lets celebrate with shots come on don't be shy." Vergo said while she filled four shot glasses and then drank one with out flinching. Tonight was going to be a long one.

After a long bull-head flight and a even longer walk to the village the team finally made it to the target. "Finally here I can't feel my feet!" Ray said as they walked through the town looking for a place to stall the night.

As they walked something was off coal looked to the right then the left and said. "There aren't any humans here." Vergo and leo looked at the people walking around town and coal was right not a human in site but vergo noticed something else they were all glaring at her and leo.

They entered a inn coal went up to the employee and said. "Hey man we need four rooms plz."

The guy grabbed four room keys and said. "Here you go that will be twenty lien have a nice day."

Coal smiled and walked back to his team while the employee pulled out his scroll and tipped in some numbers and waited for someone to answer.

The person that answer said. "What is it?"

"Tell lieutenant ilia the traiters coal and ray are at my inn." The employee smiled as he was told he would receive a reward for his loyalty.

It was about twelve o'clock when coal heard a knock on his door. He got out of bed and grabbed his pants as soon as he opened the door he dropped his pants as he stared at a black haired woman. He know the woman she was qrow's sister and yang's mother.

"I heard your looking for my assassin?" She asked while she picked up his pants and handed it to him. "My question is why?"

Coal motioned for her to come in as she walked in and sat on his bed he put on his pants and said. "Yes I'm looking for 'S' I need his help."

"Wolve has told me about his past with you and I think he shouldn't help you but I can't control him so I'll just give you a warning if he dies I will come after you."

Coal rolled his eyes at the name wolve his real name is Shadow Winter but when he joined raven's tribe he took the name wolve. "Believe me I care just as much about my friend as you do, but while your here do you want me to give qrow or yang a message?"

Raven stood up and walked to the door stopping and turning her head to glare at coal. "I know you think I don't care about my daughter but I do." She ended and walked out the door and away from the room.

In the morning team CLVR split up to searched for any suspicious activity. Coal went to the mayor's office, leo and vergo decided to go to the bar and see if people were more talkative when drunk, ray is going straight to the crime organization in the village they should be able to help him.

Leo and vergo's point of view

They went to the nearest bar and unsurprisingly they were the only humans there. They made there way to a table and sat down.

"I don't think we could get any info from these people even if their drunk." Leo said as he tried to get a waiter's attention.

"I think your right and unless coal or ray find anything I don't think the white fang is her-" vergo stopped and pointes to someone who just walked in.

Leo turned around and saw that bat faunus bill then he asked vergo. "Ok so it's that asshole so what?"

"Last time I saw him he was with some white fang grunts maybe he's a member?" Vergo said as she stood up and walk up to him.

"HEY ASSHOLE!" Vergo was subtle as always as soon as bill saw her he ran out vergo and leo went after him.

As they ran through the small village until leo transformed into a cheetah and tacked bill to the ground. "Got off me you freak."

Vergo caught up to them and then pointed her gun at bill's face. "Didn't your mother ever tell you it's rude to name call?"

Bill looked scared as the barrel of the gun pressed against his forehead. "What do you want?"

"Is the white fang in this village?" Vergo asked bill the guy smiled and said.

"In the town they are the town if you don't let me go your going to have white fang all over you, you fucking freaks!"

Leo turned back into him and punched bill in the face knocking him out. "We got what we needed lets call ray and coal." Leo tried calling them but nothing vergo did the some and got nothing.

"You think the fang is going after them?" Vergo asked

Leo nodded and told her to go after coal while he finds ray.

Ray's point of view

Ray could always find where the criminals were it was a trick he learned from the guy who took him in and trained him to be a smuggler. A young woman came up to him and tapped him on his shoulder. "Oh shit if your here where's the old man?" The girl just walked to a building she motioned her hand telling ray to follow.

They entered a room the room had two chairs and a table in one of the chairs was an old friend of ray's. "Hey torch long time no see."

Roman looked at neo and said. "Neo I told you to knock him out so we wouldn't have to listen to him." Neo smiled and tipped a message in her scroll then handed it to roman. 'Will you be nice we're here to warn him.'

Roman looked at neo she had a serious face. He nodded and received a light pat on his head from neo she then walked out of the room leaving ray and roman to talk.

"I see neo still keeps you on a short leash." Ray said with his cocky smile.

"You know when I first met you, you were scrounging for food I took you in and gave you a purpose then we met neo and I did the same thing so why did you leave and she stall?" Roman asked while reaching for his cigar.

"I owe you big time for helping me and I'll pay you back but right now I'm being hunted by-"

"The white fang yes I know I'm working for them and I was sent here to kill you." Ray jumped up and reached for his weapon but roman held up his hand and said. "Trust me ray if I was going to kill you I would have had neo do it while you were looking around, I have a deal for you."

Ray sat back down and asked. "What kind of deal?"

"I know old ozpin is bringing the two crime lords to gether so I'll be your spy and leak info to you and when the white fang is dealt with I want a clean slate." Roman ended by lighting his cigar.

"Ok I'll talk to ozpin and see what I can do."

Roman clapped his hands together and said. "Oh before I forget I wasn't the only one sent that horn-headed asshole adam is here and he's going after coal."

Ray's eyes widened and he ran out of the building as he did he bumped into leo. After they caught up they ran to where coal is.

Coal's point of view

Coal found the mayor's office it was a small building. As he entered there was a receptionist's desk but no receptionist so coal just walked past it and opened the door to the office. "Hello"

Coal noticed someone in the chair and started walking towards the desk then stopped about three feet away from the desk and asked. "So mayor do you know anything about the white fang?" Coal waited but there was no answer so coal reached over the desk and pushed the chair around then he took a few steps back as he saw a man with fifteen gun shots in his chest.

"Oh you found my present hope you don't mind I wanted to put that crime lord but her bodyguard got in the way." Coal turned and saw adam in the doorway smiling.

Coal couldn't believe that the man in front of him was adam. "Adam it's not to late you did a bad thing but you can still change let me help you."

"Ha ha ha you think I'm the bad guy no I'm a hero I'm helping our people and your a traitor who took my woman." Adam clenched his fist and then pulled out his sword and activated his semblance causing the blade to glow.

"Adam I know you, you don't want to hurt me we're family." Adam just smiled and swung his sword launching an arc of red energy fling towards coal. Coal grabbed his sword and used it to block the attack but he was sent fling through the wall and into the forest behind the building.

Adam jumped through the newly made hole and chased after coal. After running for a few minutes adam stopped and looked around he know coal was near. "After your dead I'll go after blake with you out of the picture she'll realized she made a mistake and come back to me."

Adam could hear coal laughing at him but he couldn't pinpoint where it was coming from. "Do you really think she left because of me she left because she realized how crazy sienna was please adam come with me you can be a good person?"

Adam started swinging wildly sending energy arcs everywhere they cut through multiple trees after a few seconds adam stopped and watched as trees fell to the ground making a clearing in the forest.

Coal walked out from behind one of the cut down tree's. Adam and coal stood there staring at each other with about five feet separating them. Adam grabbed his sheath and switched it into it's shotgun form then fired three shots. Coal used his katana to block the shots then throw a fire ball adam doughed under it and ran towards him.

As adam closed the space between them their blades clashed. Coal pushed adam back and than used his semblance to shot fire on the ground keeping adam at a distance. Coal turned his sword into it's pistol mode and fired all nine of his shots adam was surrounded by fire and could only block the shots. Adam was able to block some but not all the shots he had two bullets go through his left leg. Coal made the flames die then pointed his sword at adam and said. "Give up adam you can't win."

Adam dropped the shotgun/sheath and held his sword with both hands coal looked down at his gun and with a flick of his wrist it went back to it's sword form coal then ran at adam.

Coal and adam's blades clashed multiple times leaving cuts on both of them. Coal decided to end this by heating up his blade when their blades clashed again sparkes flow into adam's face broking his forces. Coal covered his fist in fire and punched adam in the chest sending him back and to the ground. Coal stood over him and held his sword to adam's neck.

"Coal please this isn't you, your not a murderer I want your help I want to be a better person like you said." Coal stared at his brother then smiled as he holstered his weapon and held out his hand.

Adam grabbed it and stood up then reached down and picked up his sword. "Ok let's go see your friends." Coal turned around and started walking but then felt something wet coal looked down to see a sword through his torso and blood covering the blade.

When the sword was pulled out coal fell to the ground adam grabbed his shotgun and then sheathed his sword. Then he stood over coal and said. "Well look how the tides have turned the only difference is I don't care about your life." Adam channeled his aura into his fist and started punching coal's face even with the little bit of aura coal had left adam was able to bust his nose and didn't stop.

"It's because of you that mom died you killed her. Then you betraied the woman that took us in. And finally you took my woman SHE'S MY!" Coal was taking hit after hit he was able to say something.

"She's not yours or anyone else your just a fucking sociopath." That was the last stroll adam was done massing around and was going to put a end to this.

"Coal coal where are you?" Adam stopped when he heard a woman's voice.

"Well who is that one of your little friends?" Adam stood up and walked to where the voice was coming from.

Vergo was walking with her gun in her hands she would use her semblance but she know where he was he wasn't exactly subtle. Vergo dived to the ground as a red arc of energy flow past her head. She jumped to her feet and looked around for the son of a bitch that did that. She didn't see anybody but to be sure so she activated her semblance and searched. Something was wrong her vision was blurry and it was to see anyone's aura she did found a weak aura. "Coal!" She ran to him as she got closer she saw a bloody body that kinda looked liked coal. "Coal what the hell happened to you?"

Coal tried to speak. "It's...a...trap...run"

Vergo reached for her gun but it wasn't there she turned around and saw adam's fist.

He grabbed her left arm and twisted it until he heard a snap.

Vergo cried out as adam grabbed her throat and started choking.

"Adam I'll tell you anything just don't hurt her." Adam looked at him and asked.

"Where is blake?" Vergo was shocked this is adam, coal's brother.

Leo and ray's point of view

Leo and ray ran through the town but were stopped when they saw a bull-head with white fang grunts all over it. "We may need that four a quick escape." Ray said as he pulled out his scythe.

"If you get the ship I'll find coal and vergo." Ray nodded and they separated.

Leo turned into a wolf and ran into the forest.

Leo ran using his hearing and smell to try and find his friends he almost gave up until he heard. "Where is blake?" Leo ran as quick as possible.

Coal tried to talk but there was to much blood in his mouth but adam didn't care he squeezed vergo's neck she gasped for air coal started coughing up blood trying his hardest to say something.

Woof

That's all adam heard before he was tackled to the ground by a wolf. He was able to grab and throw the wolf leo turned back into his human form before landing on his feet. Adam was about to attack when a bull-head appeared and fired its miniguns at him adam jumped for cover as leo picked up vergo and her gun then ran to the bull-head.

The bull-head landed only a few feet from coal. "Where's coal?" Ray asked leo he responded with. "I couldn't carry them both." Ray exited the ship and ran to coal when he picked coal up he said. "Leo gits the girl and I git second place." Ray heard coal try to laugh then a crack.

'Shit' ray turned around and was hit by one of adam's shotgun shots. Ray steadied him self and throw a smoke star to cover there escape.

On the flight back to beacon ray was fling while leo took care of coal. "Vergo why didn't you use your semblance to see adam?" Vergo was shaking and just said. "I only was forces on coal I didn't know adam was there."

Leo nodded as vergo thought to herself. 'It's messing with my semblance now I need more sorry leo.'
