On the surface, Mr. Oobleck woke up slowly and stretched his arms out lightly. After, he put on his glasses and yelled, "Alright, Team RWBY! It is time to wake up and get ready to continue the mission! Come on now!" There was no response, only the sound of wind blowing. This soon made Oobleck confused as he called out again, "Team RWBY! Get up!" Again, nothing but the wind was heard. Oobleck didn't have time for their games so he flipped the blanket from Weiss' bed up to find nothing. The huntsmen scratched his head lightly at the sight of a empty bed. Then, he sighed, "Why, those little troublemakers are in so much trouble."
Oobleck grabbed his bag and walked into the city. As he walked, he heard a noise in the building next to him. He turned around to see a door. This got his attention and he walked to it slowly. Then, he cracked the door open to be safe, proceeding to opening it fully. Darkness was all the man could see. But this didn't make him shiver or squeal in horror, just blink. "The girls must be down here. They better be, that's what." The huntsmen continued about giving the girls their punishment while walking down the staircase...
Meanwhile, down below the city, Cinder was running around the place. She knew Ruby's cell would be around here somewhere. What she didn't know was that Elizabeth was on her tail as she started to load up the train. But that didn't stop her from moving on. Out of nowhere, a group of fanus appeared, about to beat up Cinder. The flame princess had another thing in mind as she jumped on one's head and kicked the other two fangs in the face, leaving all of them knocked out. This was really annoying her to see the White Fang were awfully smart. It was like she didn't stand a chance against them. Since she stared at the ground, someone bumped into her, making her and the person fall backwards.
"Ow!" The woman shrieked somewhat quietly. "Am I gonna keep on running into people?" Cinder asked herself as she got up from the impact. When she saw the one responsible for stopping her, she couldn't help but have her mouth wide open. It was Ruby, who was rubbing her butt from the fall. Cinder smiled widely and Ruby made her eyes meet the leader. "C-Cinder-." "Ruby!" She interrupted then hugged her tightly. "I can't believe you're here!" Cinder continued, hugging the redhead tighter. Ruby couldn't help but hug her back while closing her eyes. "I'm so glad you've came, Cinder. But why... Why did you leave Beacon?" She questioned.
Cinder looked at her quickly. "Because I was worried! I missed you! And I couldn't get you out of my mind! I had to see you was okay!" She beamed, throwing the girl a smile she has never seen before. It wasn't the flirty ones she usually saw nor the warm ones. It was a true smile. One that she would want to see more and cherish. Ruby just pulled her into the hug again, feeling her warmth. They both couldn't say anything and hug each other, not caring about what would happen to the other as long as they were together.
"Uh, Cinder?" A voice called out from behind Ruby. Cinder's eyes opened slowly to Neo who was looking at her confusingly and shyly. "Neo?!" She yelled in surprise and happiness, making the ice cream girl smile warmly. Ruby turned to her then to Cinder, knowing it's been a while since the two sisters met. She let go of the flame princess as she got up and attack hugged the young one. Neo squealed lightly at the embrace, until she slowly got into it, hugging back. "Man, Neo! I've waited a while to see you again!" Cinder stated. "I know. It's been so long." The brown and pink haired whispered loudly. Before the princess could continue to hug her, she let go quickly and examined her.
"They didn't hurt you, did they?" She asked her sister. In reply, Neo shook her head lightly. "I was lucky to not get caught by Lisa so-." "Lisa is here?!" Cinder interrupted her and the young one nodded her head lightly. "Jesus Christ!" Cinder shouted in horror, then her head twisted to Ruby. "They didn't hurt you right?!" She asked. Ruby was kind of scared to answer. She remembered Elizabeth cutting her neck and Victor punching her in the stomach. But what would happen if Cinder did find out? She would probably go on a rampage.
But it was too late. Ruby's silence caught the black haired's attention and she examined her quickly. While she did, she found a long line on the side of the redhead's neck. This soon made her feel like a bull that just saw red. "Who did this to you?!" She questioned. "I-It was a white hair girl with green eyes. P-Probably the boss, b-b-but it's okay, I'm fi-." "Elizabeth!?" Cinder screamed, causing Ruby to jump up at the reaction. "She's going to pay! No one hurts you and gets away with it!" She continued. With that, Cinder dashed to wherever the path would take her.
"Oh no." Neo whispered to herself. "Oh no," Ruby repeated in confusion. "W-What do you mean oh no?" "Cinder is going on a rampage. You can call it a tantrum." Neo informed the redhead then turned to her. "We should follow her before she destroys everything in her path." She continued. Ruby nodded at her and the two followed Cinder to where she was going.
Before the angry princess could run further, someone called out to her, "Cinder!" It was Weiss with Blake and Emerald next to her side. Weiss' eyes zoomed to Ruby and a smile slowly spread on her face. "Ruby!" Blake yelled as Ruby ran towards them. "Guys!" She replied, getting ready for a hug. But what she got was a hit on the head. "Why the hell did you leave, you dolt!?" The snow white scolded her. "Zweii needed to pee, so I followed him! Suddenly, I found this place and here we are!" Ruby told her, but Weiss just pouted at her teammate. "I don't have time for this! We have to go!" Weiss commanded her.
Blake laughed at the two girls arguing. Her laughter faded at the sight of Neo. Without question, she jumped on her, ready to attack. "No no no!" Ruby told the fanus and pulled her off Neo. "She's a friend. Her name is Neo and she helped me out of my cell. She's also Cinder's sister." She informed Blake, who gave her wide eyes. "I know." She continued.
Out of nowhere, White Fang ran towards them. The remaining team went into fighting mode, about to attack. Until they saw who was in front of the stampede of fanus. Yang and Mercury, running and screaming at the same time. "Yang?" Ruby said quietly. "Hey, it's Ruby!" Mercury told the blonde by her. "Ruby! Start running!" She yelled at her sister and she did as she said, along with everyone else. Everyone except Cinder who was too angry to order around. When Yang and Mercury passed, she ran to them, raising a punch as her defense.
Before she could attack though, a beam of flames passed her, knocking out half of the White Fang chasing the group. It was revealed to be Mr. Oobleck. He fixed his glasses then walked to Team RWBY. When he reached them, he smacked all four of them in the head hard. "You are in so much trouble, young ladies! How dare you try to sneak away from my supervision." He stated. His eyes went wide to the sight of the extra children. "H-How did Team CEM and the other one come here?" "We can tell you later but if you haven't noticed a army of WHITE FANG are trying to kill us!" Yang shouted, causing Oobleck to just sigh at her actions.
"Okay then. Let's get out of here." He told the teams. "No!" Cinder shouted out loud. "Not until I find Elizabeth and make her pay!" She continued and ran forward. Suddenly, she heard the intercom come on to hear her drug. "All White Fang! Get on the train now! We're getting the fuck out of here!" The boss commanded. Before she got off, she laughed which made the princess go blind with anger. Ruby tried to go stop her, but Yang pulled her back and the two watched Cinder run away.
"What do we do now?" Emerald asked. "Why, we get on that train of course." Oobleck replied. Neo walked to the train tracks, making the teams look at her. She looked back at them with a eyebrow raised slightly. "Um, can you all please hold me?" She questioned them. They were lost but did as she said, even Oobleck. Neo then made a certain hand movement and held her stance. The train started and headed towards them, causing everyone to get scared. "Uh, you gonna move or what?" Weiss asked her, but the ice cream girl didn't respond. When the train got closer, everyone screamed and Neo finally jumped towards it, disappearing.
Suddenly, the group landed on top of a part of the train, breathing hard. "The hell was that?!" Emerald yelled at Neo. "Teleportation. Ta da?" She explained shyly. "Good job, cutey." Yang said with a thumbs up as the girl blushed. "We can thank her later, the train is going somewhere we don't even know of. Probably Beacon!" Oobleck informed them. "Then what are we waiting for?" Ruby answered him, taking out her scythe from Blake. "We're going to stop this train... But first. Where's Zweii and Cinder?" She questioned while ruining her heroic moment. From the distance, a bark was heard. Zweii was running after the train and the others saw him.
"Zweii!" Ruby called out to him. "Come on, buddy!" She continued lifting out her hands to him. Zweii tried to jump for her, but failed. Then Ruby thought of using her scythe and aimed it to the dog. He jumped again and bit on it. The redhead pulled her up then lifted him down on the train. Zweii ran to Emerald and licked her face like earlier. She laughed softly, until she saw Oobleck with a straight face and put him down. "Okay, what now?" Mercury asked. "The train must be stopped!" The huntsmen called out. "Uh, yeah. That's what I said." Ruby stated and the man crooked smiled in embarrassment.
The teams ran down the train until they heard a boom from behind. The craft behind them was far in the back, away from the train itself and exploded. "There was a bomb on there?!" Blake yelled to her teammates. Oobleck looked inside the craft they were on to find a bomb. He then ran to the other one and inside was another bomb. "They all have bombs!" He informed the kids. So, the others ran down the train to get to the main craft. But then White Fang came out from underneath the craft in front of them. "Get the humans!" One shouted and the fangs approached them. The children knew exactly what to do. Fight.
Yang went first, tripping a fang then punching them down the train. Blake used her fast speed to push some of the fanus off the train. Weiss made a ice way, sliding threw the White Fang then ending her attack with the spin of her rapier. Mercury and Emerald did some combos to fight their way threw and Neo ran towards some with her umbrella as protection. Lastly, Ruby blasted her way to the next craft while knocking a few bad guys out. Oobleck turned to see another craft explode, this time, it broke the ceiling above. Out came a lot of Grimm and even a huge Snake Grimm that quickly headed towards them.
"They are using the bombs to bring down Grimm. They're going to lead them to the city!" Oobleck informed them out loud. "That's insane!" Blake yelled back to him, only to see another craft leave the train and explode. "We have no time! So let's keep moving!" Neo commanded and the group kept running about. The team started to split up, leaving Ruby, Oobleck and Zweii on the top still. Out of nowhere, a machine appeared in front of them.
"We have a problem!" Oobleck stated as he got ready to drink from his canteen. After taking a nice long sip, he turned it into his weapon. Zweii barked and jumped in the air, signaling Oobleck to hit him. When he does, Zweii is evolved into a ball of fire and approaches the machine, breaking it. Another almost showed up, but the huntsmen destroyed it with his flame torch. With that, they moved out.
Meanwhile, Yang and the rest of the team walked in the train. "I guess this is what we trained for." Yang blurted out as they all gave her a nod of their heads. "Well, I won't lie. These people may be tough. So-." "Hey, we got this, sweet cheeks." Yang continued, winking at Neo. The girl blushed again until she shook her head, getting back on track. "Okay, I know this train like the back of my hand, but not what it has in store for us. So, please listen carefully. Uh... White hair girl and fanus, you are going to take care of the next craft. Mr. Mercury and Ms. Emerald, you have the one after those two. Me and the nice blond hair girl will take care of this craft, okay?" The ice cream child commanded them and they went on with her orders.
The door in front of them opened to Lisa, who had a napkin on her shoulder for unknown reasons. As the teammates passed her, she acted as if she never saw them. Yang and Neo got ready to fight her, then the blonde whispered, "You know how to fight, kid?" "Yes ma'am. But please be careful. This person is very strong." She informed her partner in quiet tone. Lisa smirked and said, "Might as well just stop here, fools. Because Cinder is mine! I'll fight you nicely, but if I have to go hard on you, I will! And this napkin will be covered in your blood and tissue!" With that, she dashed to the two at a high speed.
Yang tried to attack, but got kicked to the wall hard. Neo saw her partner fall down, making her really mad. But she just smirked. Lisa was confused, yet not dumb. She almost hit the girl, until she counted with a stab of her umbrella. Neo kept smiling at the enemy's ways while twirling her weapon of choice in her hands slowly. The white blonde smiled back then tried to hit her with her hands like blades. The little one dodge her attacks, causing her to irritate Lisa. She tried more and then Neo sat on a case, taunting her.
The others ran down the train in pursuit to stop it. Out the door from the other craft came Victor. He seemed different though, wearing a broken White Fang mask. He walked to the team slowly with a devilish frown on his face. "Go on without us, okay?!" Weiss told Mercury and Emerald. "You got it!" Mercury cooed and helped Emerald run pass Victor by throwing her under him and heading for the door. When they left, Blake stared at her opponent.
Before she could talk, Victor charged at her. Weiss luckily blocked his attack by pushing him away with her rapier. Something was off about the way Victor fought though. He didn't use dust, but only his claws. This was something her and Weiss was not used to. But that didn't stop them from continuing the fight. Weiss threw a slash at him yet he countered with a scratch at her blade. A huge cling sound was heard out loud. And Blake looked down to see some of Weiss' rapier was broken!
"Why use dust!? It is for the weak!" Victor shouted at them and threw punches at Blake. She countered with her sword, but it didn't really help but just block moves. Out of nowhere, he jumped in the air and dived kicked at the snow white. But Weiss jumped to the ceiling and aimed her blade at him, about to end the fight. To her surprise, he just put his hand out to her, making the rapier pierce his hand. He forced his arm up more as he grabbed Weiss' hand, throwing her to Blake hard at the ground. "Weaklings..." He whispered to the knocked out girls and walked away.
Back with Neo, she was still toying with Lisa as she blocked all of her attacks. Yang got up and saw this happening. She smiled at the ice cream theme girl's actions. Finally, they had the fight in the bag. Until Lisa stopped and yelled, "I can't take this anymore!" She stopped moving and walked to a corner. Neo and Yang looked at her, waiting for the next act. But Lisa just stood there and counted to ten slowly. The blonde looked at her teammate as her eyes said, 'what the hell is she doing?'. Neo still waited for what would happen. Out of nowhere, she took off her pink purse and straightened it to turn into a pink axe.
When she blinked again, Neo's eyes went white in horror at the psychopath's weapon. She aimed her ax at the young girl, smirking evilly. "You pissed me off. Now you die~." Lisa cooed. With that, she came at Neo quickly. The girl tried to fight back, but Lisa was too fast for her. She used her umbrella only for it to be cut in half. Neo was too scared to fight, but not too scared to run. So, she almost escaped the fight, until Lisa kicked her very hard in the back, releasing a scream from Neo as she fell down.
Yang watched as her partner got knocked out. But that didn't stop Lisa. She walked towards her with her ax and got ready to cut the young one's head off. For some reason, something in Yang started to boil up. It wasn't courage. It was anger, disappointment. It was hatred. Out of nowhere, her eyes slowly turned red and her hair glowed up a light sun yellow. Lisa saw how the blonde changed and got scared. "Leave. Her. ALONE!" She shouted and charged at her with a punch. This hit Lisa, but she just laughed and said, "Interesting." "interesting, my ass!" The angry teen replied, about to give out another attack. But, Lisa spun in place and out of nowhere, she disappeared.
"COWARD!" Yang yelled out. After, she looked down at the unconscious Neo and picked her up. The girl squirmed lightly at the pain that was on her body. Yang couldn't help but feel sad and asked, "Are you okay?" "M-Mhm." She responded quietly. The blonde was trying to start a conversation that could get the two's mind off of what happened. "What's your name?" Yang questioned out of nowhere. "I-I'm Neopolitan. But you can call me Neo." She answered. "I'm Yang. And I'm so sorry you have to deal with the injuries that crazy chick caused... I should've helped you." The blonde stated as Neo nuzzled her head in the older one's chest, making her turn red. But she just found out to deal with it...
Mercury and Emerald finally ended up at the front of the train to find someone driving it. "Okay, man! Stop this train!" Mercury demanded in a deep voice. The man turned to reveal it was Isreal. "Why, hello! Uh, I suggest you get out of here." He suggested quietly. Emerald just took out her little scythes and replied, "Now why the hell would we do that?!" "Because, this thing is on auto-drive. I'm not driving it! So, unless you want to die, like me, please leave." he informed them in his calm tone.
Out of nowhere, Cinder jumped through the window and pounced on Isreal, making him fall out of his seat. "Where is Elizabeth!?" She asked him out loud. "S-S-She isn't here at the moment!" He answered stuttering. "Cinder, how did you-." "Held on from underneath and climbed up. Now, show me where she is now!" She yelled at Isreal. With his shaking hand, he pointed up. Above them was Elizabeth, standing upside down. "Hello, Cinder~." She said which made the princess throw her teammate at her. Elizabeth quickly dodged it and a 'ow' was heard from Isreal's mouth. "You bastard! How dare you hurt my Ruby!" She shouted out to her.
"Your Ruby? That's new. I guess you got a pet now." She responded. "She is NOT a pet!" Cinder roared out, but Elizabeth just smiled. "Well, you know one things for sure. You'll have to come back to us and leave the swine. For the family." She cooed to her 'sister'. "Shut up-." "Not only that, but daddy would be PRETTY upset at your choice against us." The boss continued, making Cinder lose control. "And also, mom wouldn't be proud of you. Or whatever the hell you want to call that slut. So, come on. Besides. You ARE a Fall after all." After those words, the room got hotter and hotter every second. Finally, Cinder screamed, "NO I'M NOT!" Elizabeth quickly took off the woman's gloves, grabbed her hands, wrapped her legs on her's and whispered, "Yes you are."
A explosion occurred, causing Team CEM to blast on top of a craft. Cinder opened her eyes to Ruby. She smiled sadly at her and helped her friend up. Soon, the others came and saw a dead end up ahead. "What do we do?" Blake asked. With a nod from the redhead, Weiss made a ice barrier around them and they all clashed with the train...
The air was filled with sirens and ashes. As the group slowly opened their eyes, they saw the destruction and pain they caused. Their clothes were torn up and all had cuts and bruises on them from the crash of the train. Cinder looked around at her team and the others all hurt. Also, people were looking at them like. Monsters. Suddenly, Grimm came out of nowhere and started to attack the citizens of Vale. The princess watched as people screamed for help and nearly die in front of her.
Cinder couldn't help but shiver at this sight. In her mind, she thought she caused all this. Her and the blood of a pathetic excuse for a family flowing in her veins. She almost wanted to kill herself or to her surprise, let out her sorrows. Until, she felt a light touch on her hand. It was Ruby's. Her's were more smaller and shorter then Cinder's, but felt very comforting. As their eyes met, the redhead threw a smile at her that made the princess calm down a little. She then pulled Ruby to her side and help the two both get up. Cinder turned to her precious Ruby as she began, "Can we do this, Cinder?" With a smile erupting on her, she held her hand tight and responded, "Yes we can... And we will...
Together."
