Wolf's POV
Once Ozpin was in his room he dialed Jaune's number. There was no time to go down to the dorm himself. If Ruby's panic was any indication then something terrible was about to happen.
Jaune answered sleepily, "Wolf? What's happening?"
Wolf replied in a serious tone, "Jaune get everyone up. There's an emergency."
That drove the sleepiness from his friend. Jaune asked his tone changing to that of a leader, "What's happened? Do I need to get a teacher? Aren't you with the headmaster?"
Wolf looked at Ozpin who's chest was rising and falling slowly. Ozpin wouldn't be any help in this fight. His huntsman used too much of his aura showing Wolf the past. Though he did have Glynda's and Ironwood's number in his scroll. While they didn't get along Wolf knew he could count on them to fight for Vale.
He replied, "I'll contact the ones I can and meet you at the airstrip. The headmaster is... indisposed at the moment. There is no way that he will be able to help in the fight."
Jaune said, "I'll meet you there. Let me get everyone up."
Wolf ended the phone call. Then he dialed the number for Glynda.
When she answered it was a snarl, "Wolf you better have a good reason for calling me so late. Do you realize what time it is?"
Looking at the time he winced. He didn't realize how long the story of the past took. It was after midnight and it was little wonder why she was angry at him.
He replied, "Goodwitch listen to me. Ruby called me saying that a train was coming to Vale. That there was bombs on it. We need everyone to get to the city immediately."
That knocked away any of her anger at him calling her. She said, "I'll get what remaining students organized. What of the Headmaster?"
"Indisposed. Team JNPR will be first on the scene. I'll be out there in preparation for whatever is coming. Do I need to contact, Ironwood? Or do you want to?"
She answered coldly, "I have James. Good hunting, Wolf."
Then the line clicked. With that he moved to leave the room. He could not hesitate to go help others. There was lives on the line.
He took the elevator down. Given the time of night there was anyone there. He quickly made his way down to the airship. There was only a short wait for the rest of his team to arrive.
Jaune was the first to arrive. His blue eyes met Wolf's. Suddenly, alarms ring out as they see the city up in smoke.
Jaune ordered, "Everyone on board!"
As the team heads toward their Bullhead, Jaune does a headcount. Wolf stood at Jaune's shoulder his eyes not leaving the smoke. They were too late to reach the city before the start.
Jaune said comfortingly, "Ren, we'll make it to that village another time. Take us into the city!"
The pilot looked like he was going to argue. Wolf pulled up his license as a hound. That shut the pilot up quickly. While he was still in school, Wolf was well known amongst the pilot pilots and huntsman. Instead of arguing he nodded and they took off.
As they arrive they find team RWBY surrounded in the middle of the pavilion by Beowolves, Ursai, and a massive King Taijitu. The King Taijitu unleashes a mighty roar, signalling the Grimm to attack. Ruby Rose plants Crescent Rose on the ground before kicking away the Grimm. Yang propels herself upwards, performing aerial bombardments with Ember Celica on the Grimm before three Giant Nevermores send her crashing to the ground.
Blake Belladonna slashes a Beowolf with Gambol Shroud before firing on the other approaching Grimm. Weiss Schnee slashes three Beowolves, before summoning a glyph to conjure up an ice blade. Yang is back on the ground, sends several cars flying towards the Grimm. As Ruby finishes slashing at a Grimm, she notices the King Taijitu ready for the attack, until she also sees Nora flying on her Magnhild hammer towards the King Taijitu, slamming it on the head and killing the beast.
Nora shouted as they tried to catch up to her, "Nora Smash!"
Wolf drew his sword. Civilians littered the ground. From what he could tell they were alive but unconscious. It was going to difficult to fight the Grim and keep the civilians safe.
Jaune ordered, "Nora, Ren, keep Grim off of the civilians. Pyrrah help team rwby. Wolf and I will fight the White Fang and any Grim that get in the way."
A few feet from them, Sun, and Neptune, flashing their badges. Sun ordered, "Nobody move! Junior detectives!
Neptune grinned, "We have badges so you know it's official!"
Wolf wanted to roll his eyes but was thrown off balance by Jaune pushing him out of the way. His eyes widened when the Ursa's claw hit Jaune's shield. His friend pushed away the claw and used the opening to slash it's throat. It went down already it's body was disappearing.
A sense of pride filled Wolf. If it was the last semester, Jaune would not have been able to do that. He would have ended up with a gaping wound to his side. Other members of his team were fighting Grim. In the last year they had improved both in teamwork and fighting skills. It was surprising how well they worked together.
A fleet coming from the Atlesian Military, consisting of dropships deploying Atlesian Knight-200 units and the flagship of James Ironwood. In the open doors of the dropship stood both Ironwood and Goodwitch. Sun and Neptune react in awe of the fleet as Sun drops his badge to the floor.
As Team RWBY looks up in the sky, an Ursa takes the opportunity to attack Ruby from behind. However, it is gunned down by a dropship's machine gun. As the robotic Knights deploy, they start gunning down the Grimm.
Two of the Knights are stampeded on by a Boarbatusk, but a separate group of three Knights fire on an Ursa, and another Ursa has fallen from a Knight's punch. Cinder nods her head, signalling Mercury and Emerald to attack the Grimm as she walks off. As an Ursa receives the business end of Mercury's Boots, at least half a dozen assorted Grimm stand in front of Emerald. It turns out that Emerald's Weapons are actually a pair of bladed, revolver shaped pistols firing Dust particle lasers at the Grimm.
The Grimm pack learn this the hard way, when all but a single Ursa fall while charging at Emerald. Emerald quickly transforms her pistols into kopis blades, flipping and slashing at the rampaging Ursa to kill it. Out of the opening comes Zwei, followed by Dr. Bartholomew Oobleck in a damaged Atlesian Paladin-290.
Oobleck asked his eyes taking in the fight, "What's the status of the civilians?"
"Most are unconscious. Ren, and Nora are protecting them."
Oobleck nodded and said, "Well done. Keep up the good work."
With that he entered the battle. Jaune held out his hand to help Wolf to his feet. Without an ounce of hesitation he took it and allowed Jaune to haul him to his feet. Then they had to step away from each other again. Several Ursas entered the fray and they began to fight once more.
An airship arrived, dropping off Team CFVY and Professor Peter Port. As Yatsuhashi Daichi is surrounded by a pack of Grimm, he swung his mighty greatsword on the ground, unleashing a shockwave. Velvet Scarlatina and Fox Alistair respectively kick and punch the Grimm, and Fox unleashes a combo of slashes and punches that make a spiked Ursa explode, impaling the nearby Grimm with its spikes.
Coco gives Fox a light pat on the butt and said, "Nice hustle, Fox. Good job."
Coco approaches a large Beowolf. She growled, "You just destroyed my favorite clothing store. Prepare to die."
Coco, after swatting away its right hand, kicks the Beowolf in the crotch. She, as it falls to the ground and looks at her, leans down and slams her bag onto its head. She effortlessly swats away more beowolves, and the rest of Team CFVY resume fighting. Velvet steps forward, about to open her box.
Coco said to Velvet, "Hey, come on, you just spent all the semester building that up. Don't waste it here."
Coco then transforms her handbag into a giant minigun, and starts firing, slaughtering the advancing horde of Grimm. This included a Death Stalker and three Nevermores. Port and Oobleck regroup at the opening, nodding their heads. They fire their weapons at the approaching Grimm, while Glynda Goodwitch mops up the remnants and immediately closes the opening with the power of telekinesis.
Ironwood dropped down next to her along with several of his soldiers. With more huntsman in the area he sheathed his sword. He focused on his inner wolf and began to change. The bones in his body shifted forward and fur sprouted. Pain came with the shift as the plate of white armor was still on his chest. Thankfully it was still hidden in his fur. Otherwise the huntsman might take him for another Grim.
Off to the side he saw Roman Torchwic. The red haired man had his cane pointed at Ruby's exposed back. Without hesitation he ran towards the man dodging around the Grim.
Wolf launched himself at the man and bit into the man's arm. It was enough to throw the man's aim off. The shot singed Ruby's hair but she didn't notice.
Torchwic snarled as the man hit him in the head with his free hand, "Let go, you damned beast."
He sensed killing intent behind him and released the man's arm. As he dropped to the ground a shot rang out. Torchwic was knocked back by the shot. It hit him in the upper right part of his shoulder.
Wolf turned to see Ironwood standing there. They shared a nod. While they would never be friends they understood each other better now. Then he turned back to the battle and his eyes found Jaune across the courtyard.
The blond boy had his back in a corner with a Beowulf preventing him from leaving. From Wolf's position he could see that Jaune was protecting a child. That the child was unconscious like many of the civilians.
Wolf changed as he ran towards them and he drew his sword. As he closed in he used the gun in his hilt to attack the Grim. It attention turned to him and in the distraction Jaune removed its head from its shoulders. The two boy's shared a grin before entering the battle once more.
Dawn was breaking by the time the battle was over. Civilians were being treated for the wounds they received from the explosion. The casualties were all people who got buried under buildings.
Everyone met back up in the pavilion as Roman Torchwick is escorted by Mercury and Emerald towards an Atlesian airship. Roman growled, "Oh, I can't believe that you caught me, you've really taught me the error of my ways. He-hey, watch the hat!"
Emerald and Mercury then approach Ruby and they smile at each other. His team exchanged words of praise and smiles. Sun and Neptune bump fists. Team CFVY likewise smile at each other, and Port and Oobleck do the same while Glynda watches from behind.
