Welcome to the next chapter of 'Shinobi Team of Remnant: SSGN (Signal)'.
This is Chapter 21 of this newest sequel story, which now is the Season 5 Canon of RWBY…
[This is now Volume 5!]
This is the Episode 3 of this Volume 5 in this story, which the fact that when I had time to play FFBE because of the connection problems while this current state looked A-OK such as Fanfiction and YouTube. And I'm sure that things will come to take serious.
Now, when I had decide to classified Salem as 'Dark Witch Queen' in the Summary that decide promote it, which one of the storylines will be spoken by a character; during the last summary of chapter 20 (ep2). And I'm sure that instead of the 'Wicked Witch'.
~~~M~~~
Anyway, during the last recent chapter, Watts and Leonardo had meeting with Salem about the report about Qrow and the co came to Haven Academy. And which he had copied the coordinates and now that had things out of hand when getting the Spring Maiden AND the Relic of Knowledge.
Mosuke will be dispatched his men to intervene the agents of the Patriots aka Order of the White Phoenix; seems that Leonardo was informed about being thorns of the side by Salem's Inner-circle.
Now next is, seems that Weiss is been taken serious to get to Mistral by fighting through the swarm of Lancers, the Wasp-like Grimm that happens to the airships that were attacked.
Adam Taurus is the new High Leader of the White Fang, when murdering Sienna Khan and uses her death as a martyr, and pulls blame and frame on a (Human) Huntsman was responsible. As much as his followers that followed his lead.
Seems that Adam is still having some discussions with the representative of Dark Chaos Legion, and things will be quite out of hand when comes with something for acquired men when most of the recruits were being thin during Sienna's reign. Now that Adam has becoming a dictator to attempt to slavery humanity.
Adam stated to Hazel after he murdered Sienna, which that was Faunus business, that causes the latter disappoints at him for such action without telling him.
Lastly, Weiss is being taken by the Raven and her bandit tribe when they saw the crash site. And I'm sure that Raven wasn't aware about the former being her daughter's teammate and friend.
~~~M~~~
With Adam Taurus is now the High Leader of the White Fang, things will get worst if Blake wasn't aware.
Now, as much as I cannot tell you who is Isaac was, but it is best to find out soon.
As much as since the numbers of the White Fang were completely fall apart during most of the recruitments were being compromised, and also aware about Townsville in Vale were being liberated. So, instead of substitutes them, they can able to recruit more members.
And so, decide to had Combat Synthetics (aka Combat Androids) will be do their job. Knowing that the numbers like they had faced the Heaven Federation were massive, and so which they needed to match them as much as take time to reproduce more.
Just like Shredder (TMNT 2012) had substitute the Foot Soldiers with Foot Bots, when making allies with the Kraang.
If you're wondering Deidara and Kisame brought a briefcase full of money - Lien, it's simple, because they had earn it from their mercenary work than terrorists, because the branch side of the White Fang is declared mercenary group. Knowing that because if I would call it 'Akatsuki's White Fang'.
Due to Itachi's leadership, which think of it that he earned a rank of ANBU Captain in young age, as a prodigy; and knowing that he had leadership skills after all, and I'm sure that Adam had revoke to hunt them down. So far, that knowing that because of how he is similar to Adam because of how much inspiration they had earned.
~~~M~~~
Then there's Roman Torchwick, forgot that son-of-a-bitch, along with Neo, I had other plans, and as much as hope that wasn't just didn't take long to once he is fully recovered from the side-effects of Naruto's Rasenshuriken. And I'm sure that this might be when Neo was accompanying with.
But…during Season 3, which Neo's is unknown when Ruby had her overboard when she had flip her umbrella's switch, knowing that if she's alive or not; cannot confirm about it. I'm sure that the next Volume will coming up, if she made her appearance or she is not…
~~~M~~~
Now, as for Menma, the blood clone, and the spy for the Heaven Federation had informed the news about Sienna's murdered. So far, things went out of hand for this situation when Jing is making his own move for provide Blake to taken the leadership of the White Fang.
So far, seems that the plans had changed to coming up with new plans…
~~~M~~~
So anyway, as much as I will be planning to have other characters such as Jing, or Naruto and the co., or Mu, or Athrun… which best to get things started for this matter of this…
Knowing that I was prepared for anything as possible for what ideas that I had to used that refers to…
And then, it will be taken me time to think and find the right idea, and then prepared for something more than anything that I was hoping for. While (re-)watching anime that needed time to think…
…DOH! I had forgotten ITACHI! DAMNIT! I had forgot about Itachi was still in the story, and I'm sure that I'm planning to have him with his White Fang about this. Knowing Adam was aware about his marriage between a human and Faunus, which it is because Human-Faunus couples were often considered either taboo by elitist or as a kink by those who had little understanding or knowledge of the other species. Because of the taboo around such a pairing, while not illegal was often used as an excuse for one side to indulge their hatred of the other and punish the others.
Knowing that I will be taken time to see it to myself to making that line regarding Itachi's P.O.V.
~~~M~~~
During that when Gaara creating Dust Crystals with his sand, I mean, catching up with some childhood shows of Power Rangers…But, there is the time that regarding the Trizirium Crystals that NEVER being invented in the Future, and same goes with the serum that haven't invented during that happen.
And I'm sure that idea that wasn't expecting Tobi-Yaza didn't mention regarding that reference. I'm sure that he did…
~~~M~~~
Anyway, let's move on into the story with other statements…
‡ ~oOo~ † 🌹 RWBY 🌹 † ~oOo~ ‡
Well…on to the results of the review…
= Review Replied =
= (Pinned) - Adjusted for stay the same message for reviewers.
PhenexGundamKai: Yeah, it sure does that I had follow the 'flow'. And decide to add some other lines when Isaac made his appearance.
Yeah, I know about your comment about White Freedom's Specs. And then I'd know about many people didn't know about X-20A's. Anyway, don't judge its cover; I had OTHER plans for my favorite Gundam. I'll tell you when the time comes for future chapters/stories, okay? I promise you.
I did watch its trailer of Monster Hunter World, along with its Gunlance before starting to give Gaara that weapon. Really, that Brute Wyvern (its new to me before seeing one of the videos in YouTube) is looked like a Grimm was Radobaan, oh, I see…which of course that never thought for Brute Wyverns looks a appearance of T-Rex designs.
The Radobaan spins like a Bayblade (Ah, good ol'days), and release a sleeping gas.
Anyway, I kind liked Great Sword and Long Sword in the game, which of course that I did play the MH2FU.
And I'm glad for you had enjoyed this story.
Lastly, I'll try, and as much as I will be taken my time off for working my Wiki.
Shadow Joestar (Pinned): Yeah, the new adventure in Mistral starts, and now and never!
And I'm sure that they will, Joestar. And I'm sure they will…
Batthan the Dark Knight (Pinned): Yeah, I'm sure that if those two will meet eventually. I had other plans for upcoming chapter for the new volume.
st4tic sh0ck (Pinned): I will have Winter will seeing see Kakashi, soon, before seeing Weiss was being held by bandits. Which of course that will give me time for waiting for the next chapter of Vol.5? Well, which if she stay or return to Atlas, I would think about what to do…
Sorry for did not add for change the new statement before Volume 5 is updated. Which for this season, which is now Rated 'M'…
==Details==
11/23/2016/2:21am – Now…I will updated some information about the Landmasses where from the 'World of Remnant', and its settlement:

3. Solitas – Atlas/Mantle (former),
Menagerie – Blake's home continent.
Noted: There will be more info about this…so I will considered to keep this statement as to contain lists.
11/10/2017/11:07am – During before the former statement regarding the information about the landmass where the 'World of Remnant'? It will be fan-made when I had recalled and remember the settlements the heroes and heroines were being traveled.
Additional:
1. Sanus – Sunnyvale (or Sunnyville), Townsville, Dragon Atoll,
2. Anima – Unnamed Village (from Weiss and Sasuke Character Short in CH15),
3. Solitas – N/A,
Noted: This will be the same thing as before, so which I will pinned another statement of this.
Apology Note: Sorry about adding new info for this list and I'm sure that put refers from the chapter location that is fine. This time, I will make up myself for the lost time about the location.
2/24/2018/6:41pm – Recently I'd fix the intro music that mistakes it to the other characters. And I'm sure that you'll understand because of my mistake.
3/17/2018/8:03am – I am apologized for I haven't updated the newest chapter recently, because of the fact for waiting for newest Volume in RWBY. And I'm sure that I was just waiting until that happens, maybe winter? Let's hope that Rooster Teeth will…
Anyway, as much as besides waiting for the next Volume, I was just only reading other stories such as…*sigh*, guess that other Crossover stories I'd read such as…Kuroinu, well, I cannot hesitated about what I'd wrote it up. Knowing Raptorcloak did work on other stories that his Naruto saving girls on other H anime.
So, I will be working on other lines for future chapters, and I'm sure that I will get the newest chapter in time in needed to prepare…if I will alternate its timeline…
3/17/2018/9:41am – A shocking revelation regarding my favorite character in Gundam SEED, Lacus Clyne, voicing by Rie Tanaka, which she did role as Morrigan Aensland in Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Ultimate MvC3, Project X Zone, Onimusha Soul, Project X Zone 2.
After all, did read in X-over with Naruto for making relationship with Morrigan after all. If possible that she is my favorite Succubus, instead of being a villain of the game/anime.
I'm sure that I had prepared for something for that part of the idea…
So now, let's find out about this…
Now…to begin the story…BANZAI!

(Previously)
"So, when you were telling me about Leonardo Lionheart was a pawn." Tobi/Masked Madara spoke who is wearing the Akatsuki robes, wearing orange spiral mask, while Cinder and Kinote on their presence.
"There was no reason to tell you. It was not important." Salem replied; which of course that knowing that Lionheart's treachery to Ozpin's fraction of the secret society.
"Your Grace, are…you there?"
["Hello, Leonardo. Do you have something in report?"] Salem inquired, which really wanted to hear the reports from him.
["Your report. What is it?"] Salem questions them, wanted to knowing what it is.
"I've…I've found the Spring Maiden." Lionheart announced, less second of hesitated to declared the report.
["Is that so? Well done."] She says in pleased.
"As much as I'd love to take credit, ma'am, I can't say that either of us are to thank for this development." Watts reply, shrugged; smile simply; before informed. "I guess you could say, a 'little birdie' told us."
["Explain."] Salem asked, wanted to know who told them about this development, as Lionheart turns to the Seer, which he spoke up.
["You see, ma'am, Qrow Branwen arrived at Haven Academy earlier today. It seems among their group is the man named Jing D. Hayabusa and his team, if you're aware about him?"] Lionheart explained.
"Yes, ma'am! But you have to hurry!" Lionheart respond, looked frantically. "Qrow is already at odds with my-Ah!"
Salem makes a face of annoyed concentration and in response one of the Seer Grimm's tentacles shoots out to wrap around Lionheart's throat and choke him.
["Leonardo, do you remember the first time we met?"] Salem questions to Lionheart recalled that time when made interaction, as drop the Haven's headmaster into his knees. ["I remember. I remember your fear…"]
While Lionheart still choking and gasping, that the Seer's tentacle wrap around his neck; tightly, as it lifts the former up to the latter, with Salem had continues saying, before inhale slightly.
["I remember your fear. But, since that day, you've been extraordinarily brave."]
The Seer Grimm slowly brings the point of another tentacle close to the face of Lionheart, threatening.
["I won't forget all that you've done for me. Do not forget everything that 'I' can do to 'you'."]
"Adam. I'm not going to repeat myself, so I want you to listen when I tell you that the White Fang will not attack Haven Academy." Khan said telling Adam for his actions during at Vale, which the latter had failed for doing so when Heaven Federation came to aid and intervene the invaders.
"…You are a symbol for many in our organization, but that doesn't make you infallible." She finished.
"*Sigh*…I was the one of the first to suggest violence where violence was necessary. Peace bred complacency and acceptance of our place in the world. I will not allow humanity push us down without pushing them back."
With the last part from Khan slam her right fist into the throne, and continues.
"But the destruction of the Huntsman Academies crosses a line! The loss of the CCT has brought global communication to a crawl! Until news announced about they had installed the Advance Firewall to prevent from hacking and installing virus that it is completely meaningless to disabled it! And the White Fang is more of a target now ever before!"
"…That's where you're wrong." Adam reply to his High Leader's claimed for she had asserts her decision.
Sienna, Hazel, Isaac, Deidara, and Kisame focus on Adam who begins to advance toward Sienna while continuing to speak.
"We 'can' win a war against the humans. Not only because we have the support of Hazel's master, and also my new associate had provided us firepower to beat our enemies that those standing in our way, but because the Faunus are the dominant species of this planet. We're better than humans. We have everything humans have and more. Humans shouldn't just fear the Faunus, they should 'serve' the Faunus."
"What's right for the Faunus…" Adam answered, as he turns to Sienna and declared. "For this day forward, I will be the one to lead the White Fang."
"If you think I'll just step aside and follow beneath, you're wrong-"
*Shing!*
As she turns towards him, Sienna is impaled by Adam's weapon - his sword, Wilt; she sharply exhales, when she looks down at sword.
"I know." Adam replied.
*Squish, grunt*
He lifts the blade, making it slide deeper into Sienna's body and lifting it off the ground. Fist clenched, her body shakes from the damage and Adam takes advantage of her closer proximity to rest a hadn on her should and speak into her ear.
"Thank you, Sienna. You were there when our people needed you, but they need me now." Adam said with a smile sinister. Gasping in pain of Sienna, and finished. "I'm sorry you couldn't see this through to the end."
Sienna growls at this and lifting her hand to claw at Adam's neck.
*Squish!*
"Aagh!"
"Give our former leader a proper burial." Adam announced, as Hazel returns his sight back at him with an annoyed looked for the results. "All who were here tonight will claim that Sienna was murdered by a human Huntsman. Sienna Khan will become a martyr for our cause, her final act as High Leader."
"…When were you planning on telling us about that?" Hazel questioned, confronts Adam about his actions, angry at not knowing anything about his plans.
Adam withdraws a cloth from his back pocket and slides it across Wilt's blade, cleaning it of Sienna's blood. Now that he is now the new High Leader of the White Fang.
"That was my business, not yours." Adam replied to the loyal follower of Salem.
"It's our business now, and I don't appreciate you withholding things like that." Hazel stated, berates at Adam for the murder, seeing it as needless.
"Nobody needed to die today." Hazel replied, as he also leaves, following the two members of Akatsuki behind; with his disappointment in the unnecessary death of Sienna Khan by the hands of Adam Taurus.
With Adam sits down on the throne previously held by Sienna, and evilly smiled.
"I…disagree." He stated.
For now, Adam Taurus is now the new High Leader of the White Fang…
"I think…"
With Raven approaches from off-scene to take a position between two bandits and directly above Weiss; cause the latter's eyes widen at the sight of a familiar woman with raven-black hair and red eyes.
"…we just hit a jackpot." She declared.
Weiss' face turns to one of concern as she looks up at Raven…
*Thud!*
…who stomps on her face, causing he to lose consciousness.

Ghira Belladonna, wearing glasses, pacing back and forth looking at the piece of paper in hands, while his wife Kali, his daughter Blake along with Gaara (claimed accepted as the future son-in-law for held their daughter's hands), Yugito Nii and Sun Wukong, and the Kage twins - Shiruba and Karou all wait for him to be ready.
Ghira then stops pacing and takes one last look at the speech he has written down, before sighing, with his left hand onto his forehead, as his wife places a reassuring hand on his shoulder.
"Are you ready?" Kali inquired at her husband.
Which happens to be they had making a press conference to the rest of the Faunus population; which the people wanted to know about the powerful splinter group led by Adam Taurus planning to overthrow Sienna Khan and lead an attack on Haven Academy.
"Yes." Ghira replied, as he looks at the speech, last look. "It won't be easy for the people to hear, but the truth often isn't. I know they'll do the right thing."
Blake then comes up and places a hand on her father's arm, giving an affectionate snuggle. Which she and her mother comforts Ghira for the preparation.
*Pat!*
"Huh?" Ghira startled.
Suddenly, the three are taken by surprised when another hand pats on Ghira's back. He looks behind to see Sun.
"You got this." Sun said encourages the Belladonna Patriarch, giving Blake's father confidence.
The three give a brief look at Sun as he stands back and smiles; as Gaara and Yugito went to the three along with the Kage twins, as the two hanyou (namely former Jinchuuriki) siblings spurts out their respective tailed beast tails.
"Ghira, the people must know about the true colors of the White Fang, and knowing that if they will intervene, which knowing there is one among the crowd, we'll prepare to set a backup plan." Gaara says to Blake's father, advisable. "Like my counterpart as a leader of his own village that given respects to. It is best to let the people will followed you, instead of being a coward."
Gaara had mentioned his own counterpart by C. Naruto/Kurosaki/Arashi's, he is/was the Fifth Kazekaze that according to the latter that he gotten back from the training trip in 2 and half years, regarding the news about his rank as a 'Genin', so far learned from his fellow Rookie 11 had promoted into Chunins, and few were Jonins such as Neji. And C. Naruto learned about his counterpart being the elected Fifth Kazekage of Hidden Sands, the youngest who lead his people and being protected.
"Sure, and as much as knowing that they will." Ghira replies understandable, acknowledged the young man being the 'official' future son-in-law holding his daughter's hand. Not to mention that Gaara mentions his other older siblings - Temari and Kankuro, being humans, and even share the same blood. And also there's Weiss, if possible that unlike to her father that dishonored Nicolas' legacy.
"Mari sent evidence to us when she had taken side-tracked to Townsville in Sanus, knowing that we needed proof to tell the people of Menagerie about this." Shiru informed, as she took out her scroll with a labeled: 'From Mari Fuujin, Subject - EVIDENCE IN TOWNSVILLE' in the screen. "The people must know the true colors of the White Fang had caused tyranny."
"Mine too; know that we had plenty solid hard evidence to know the White Fang's actions." Karou concluded, took out his own scroll.
Ghira nod his head agreed at Shiru and Karou for what if the situation being foiled for any moment, it is best to make a countermeasure if the people will know the truth about the true colors of the White Fang.
*Door opens*
And then Ghira went to the front door and opens it, as his family, Gaara, Yugito, and Sun step out of the home to greet the crowd gathering outside, along with Shiruba and Karou stood behind him act as bodyguards, knowing that being associate with Mari Fuujin, herself in their eyes. Some people in the crowd are wearing press badges and holding scrolls up to record the event.
Others in attendance include Corsac and Fennec Albain, who are bowing their heads, as well as Saber Rodetia, appears to be some sort of rodent Faunus, based on both his name and buck teeth, and other Menagerie Guards.
Additional, surprisingly that seeing Shiru summons Kagetsune, which she'll be guarding the speech of Ghira for sudden interactions; and on the rooftops of Belladonna Mansion, unknown to the eyes of Faunus population and the representatives, there's someone is at the rooftops of the Belladonna residence.
That happens to be, Asher Wolfgang, the member of Team KALM, that happens to be that last night that he and his girlfriend Marie Loré, the two teammates of Karou and Mari haven't been made contact sometimes since according to Karou, Mari, and Shiru. So, Karou decide to contact the Hyperion to get two members of his team that happen to had them involved for this matter.
(AN: YAY! Asher and Marie is here! Sorry about that, everyone. Happen that I didn't had two members of KALM came to this adventure. I was completely an asshole for neglected them. And I'm sure that I'll make up to ya, and so, here it is!)
If everyone else in Remnant was aware or not? So, Human-Faunus couples were often considered either taboo by elitist or as a kink by those who had little understanding or knowledge of the other species. Because of the taboo around such a pairing, while not illegal was often used as an excuse for one side to indulge their hatred of the other and punish the others.
Anyway, in last night, the Belladonna family was being greeted by Karou to his other fellow teammates, a Human-Faunus couple exact, they were arrived via VTOL that was happen to be Mari's personal craft that instead of taken a ship in the oceans.
For now, with them arrived, which an extra protection within the bird's view, and then Asher is armed with a double-barreled rifle in his hands, which he prefers for sawed-off, which it is his secondary, back-up, and even a long-range weapon. (W1)
It's design of the double-barrel rifle is Engraved Westley Richards 480, chambered with .457 H&H Mag, with intense firepower with strong velocity, and its recoil is high that could severed the collarbone, since his rifle is completely modified to had recoil pad, checkered grip, and everything that could eliminated all together that could make the rifle steady to aim, a fine accurate, and even its good for long-distance shot. He had practice his own style of rifle in long-range.
And then, there's Marie stood beside her boyfriend in the rooftop, served as spotter.
"It seems this will be interesting for this conference, right…?" Asher stated.
"I agreed, Asher, knowing Mr. Karou and Ms. Shiruba had called us in Menagerie…" Marie replied, as she survey the crowd. "So…this is Menagerie, the home of Faunus population, huh…"
"True, first time that been in this island…and hope that the people in this island will know certain the truth about the White Fang's actions…" The wolf-faunus stated.
"I know, dead, I know…and hope that there is a certain lizard girl is here among the crowd." The blonde red-hooded girl stated, at the last part that seeing that caught something in her eye among the crowd.
"Hmm…" Asher hums, hearing his girlfriend's informed, as he raised his rifle with the butt-stock into his collarbone, and prepared to shot, and the wolf Faunus decide to load with a tranquilizer dart, than rifle ammo in the barrel. "Where is she, Marie?"
"Ms. Mari is towards to the target…and seems Mr. Ghira is began the speech." Marie replied.
Hearing that, seeing Ghira steps up to the podium and raises his hand to quiet the crowd down.
"Thank you all for assembling here. I wanted to take time to address some of rumors that have been circulating around our island." Ghira said, appreciate at his people for gathered.
"I believe that it is important for the people of this territory to understand the truth. No matter how you feel about the human race, I think we can all agree that the event now known as 'Fall of Beacon' was a tragedy. A tragedy that will set both man and Faunus-kind back. But, which happens to be 'Failure' Fall of Beacon, due to the fact happens that another human fraction save Beacon from that sudden assault. While the main aggressor is still unknown, we do have official confirmation that Adam Taurus…"
Then Ghira give the Albains a glare, while they had mentally scowled at statement about how the White Fang's humiliation during that night at Beacon, even though that they had deep hatred at the newcomers for ruined everything in the past.
With Ghira continues the speech, and saying.
"…the leader of a powerful splinter group working inside the White Fang was partially responsible for these attacks. His actions not only tarnished the reputation of an organization originally created to bring peace and equality to all, but to our entire race. With each day that this man remains unpunished, it becomes increasingly difficult to condemn those that look down upon us."
The crowd starts murmuring among themselves, as the Albain brothers bow their heads (which knowing that they were act for being shamed). Ghira raises his hand again to quiet down the crowd down, with the latter continue saying.
"Recently, a spy from the same splinter group set their sights on this very home. My own daughter, Blake, her lover, Gaara…"
The crowd was murmured again, looked surprisingly, about regarding the Chieftain's daughter were making relationship with the same redhead boy who accompany with recently, along with Fuujin's representatives. The Albien brothers had mentally glares at the redhead in hatred, along with Ilia was among the crowd.
With Ghira continues his speech, while the crowd still murmuring until then being settled.
"…and along with her companions did their very best to apprehend this individual. While they were unsuccessful 'after being physically assaulted and seriously injured', they were successful in obtaining the assailant's Scroll."
Ghira takes out the Scroll from inside his coat that shows that device to everything that contains . During his speech, he did mention regarding the temporary team SSBK (Sabaku), Yugito, and Sun chase and apprehend Ilia that night. Due that time when gotten the Scroll that belongs to the Chameleon Faunus, and injures Sun at night. On Sun's case, he will give her a payback during that night.
"With this, we have been able to ascertain that Adam Taurus has plans to overthrow the current leader of the White Fang, Sienna Khan, and take over reins himself."
At this, the crowd starts to loudly murmur in concern in unsettled discussion, with Ghira continues.
"If you were all wondering to ask for some questions? You heard to notice that I talked to my future son-in-law, Gaara Sabaku, I made announced that had lay my daughter's hand to his, as much as he will be joining to our family, due to she made relationship with him…"
The crowd were awestruck, along with surprised (and several of them were seething in rage envious for how Blake is being taken).
"…and also he will announce about our future in hands in Menagerie. And I'll assure you that we'll announce it, after my speech…"
The crowd were understandable for Ghira's reason for the claimed Gaara Sabaku is Blake's lover, and under expression that he will BE part of the family of Belladonna. And so, with Ghira prepared to tell the people of Menagerie regarding this upcoming event.
"Adam Taurus' radical plans do not stop there, the documents on this scroll proclaim his next target to be Haven Academy and its attached CCT Tower." He says, with Illia's scroll raised into the air. "Their plan is to strike on the last full moon before the beginning of the Fall semester, roughly two months from today."
Before Ghira had places the Scroll into the podium while speaking to the crowd.
"The representatives of Fuujin Internationals had already sent a message to the government of Mistral, by an old friend of mine, Mari…"
Ghira gestures the Kage twins about the message had already send it.
"…You're all already knew the news about the Heaven Federation, and its best to send the give the message to Vale, and then send it to Mistral, and we'll waiting for to be respond. And also you're all aware regarding the Space Program in Vale is being success…"
The Albien brothers were tensed at the message has already send to Mistral by Vale, knowing that they had longest range communications, and knowing that will be problem to intercepts it to destroy it, knowing that once Remnant gotten a satellite, and now gotten longest-range communications and then delivered messages all over the world of Remnant.
"…but I believe we have a greater responsibility. My relationship with the White Fang has been…an interesting one. Years ago, I led the organization to help try and create a world where I, and every Faunus who wished, could walk along the human race. And while I believe we made great strides toward this goal, it was made clear that the people both in and out of the White Fang wanted faster results. So I stepped down, and Sienna Khan was appointed as my successor. It's true that I do not fully condone many of her methods. What I do condone is what Sienna fights for the idea that the Faunus and Humans are, and should be, equal."
Ghira expressions turn frowns and continues.
"Adam Taurus does not seem to have that goal in mind. What he has done benefits no one but himself. I think it's time that the Faunus showed the world that we are equal! Time that we snuff out this splinter group, and restore the White Fang to what it once was!"
The crowd begins to cheer at this remark.
"To do this, I think the answer is clear, we must go to Haven and protect it at all cost!"
At this, the crowd suddenly stops cheering, showing some hesitation. Ghira sees this and clears his throat.
"Before we proceed any further, we have a special guest had attend this conference in Menagerie recently, and hope that you're already know Gaara Sabaku?" Ghira says gestures at the redhead sand user until his tail is spurts out onto his tailbone that brought the crowd surprised for seeing him in his very existence.
Among the crowd, Corsac and Fennec mentally glares at the redhead, rose their emotion of anger, cursed his very existence for brutally defeats their leader Adam Taurus.
"…This young man would like to say regarding the future for Menagerie in hands, his own founding company, and also you're aware the news about he had spoken to General James Ironwood, privately…and HE is the one who brought my daughter home, safe and sound."
The people were tensed at sudden event for the owner of rival company of the Schnee's company, while the Press taken pictures, along with recording Gaara will step in into the podium, they were about the redhead tanuki's arrival in Menagerie.
With Ghira steps out the podium, as Gaara steps up to the podium and faces Ghira, gives them a smile at each other. Causes most of the Faunus were murmured discuss about what Gaara has to say while the Press had started to recorded his voice at his speech; seeing the official owner of the Shukaku Dust Company, the upcoming company and rival to Jacques Schnee's company.
"Greetings to all people of Menagerie…" Gaara began (spoken like a future Kazekage), before he introduce and announced.
"I'm Gaara Sabaku, the founding owner of Shukaku Dust Company, and I'm a Huntsman of Beacon Academy, like Blake does. But, still an in-training, actually."
"It's true, my daughter's story will have to wait, but, not only as a former member of the White Fang, but also as a survivor of the 'Failure' Fall of Beacon. As you know that the Heaven Federation Army had save Vale that night…" Ghira explains to the crowd, confirmed the claims to occurred the event in Vale for this behalf.
"Thank you for this comment, Ghira." Gaara appreciated.
"You're welcome…son." He reply acknowledges Gaara as son once he, his daughter, and also there's Weiss, knowing that she is a former Schnee heiress and but also she's a secondary lover and bride-to-be.
With Gaara turns back to the crowd, and continue his speech.
"I'm sure that Chieftain Ghira…my self-claimed 'father' and I had much with a discussion. You all know about my special semblance of mine…"
Gaara raised his hand, the people shockingly surprised at seeing he creates Dust that made out of Sand being formed and materialized. It was rare for someone had unique Semblance that could create Dust, than the mines. Followed by murmuring at one to another regarding his Semblance.
"And I'm sure that you know that I'm starting to build an office building here in Menagerie for business for my own." Gaara continued, and announced the people. "As much as Vale is only first stage for acquires charity for renovate the Kingdom. And knowing that during that time at the failure invasion in Vale, and thanks to Weiss who also gives charity to rebuilding both the Kingdom and Academy…"
The Faunus keeps listening at Gaara, and reliefs that Beacon had almost restored its glory. While Ilia gritted seething in anger at how the Huntsman school still stands, and knowing that once it's finished. The most loses of the White Fang's was just a setback, which plans to attack on Haven which considered for wanted to redeem for their humiliation.
"Mr. Sabaku!"
As until a voice of one of the Faunus, had speaks up, among the crowd steps forward, a male actually, before the guards knew who and what works for that lets him through for wanted questions, and spoke up.
"Mr. Sabaku, I wanted to ask? I was part of the construction workers, I was wondering which building will be constructed to be exact? I mean, if don't have enough materials for the business office?"
"Well, it's over there." Gaara responded, pointed at behind the Belladonna mansion, on the right. "At the top of the hills, knowing its best spot for constructs it, so I can see the town from the view."
"What about blueprints and scale model?"
Gaara once again, pockets the Dust Crystal, and gathers the sand, and form a replica of Kazekage's office, with a symbol of Hidden Sand Village, rather than the Kanji as well.
"If any of you will offer for constructs my business building, and I'm surely you that using clay will best choice to build my office…and I'm assure you that there is no need acquired assistance, as much as because of my abilities that will able to build my own office." Gaara stated, receives a nod from the construction worker among the crowd that it's true for build a clay office building, knowing he respects the redhead sand user will build his own office building, alone.
With Gaara had continues, before doing so, after the last question from one of the crowd regarding his plans to constructed the office building.
"Anyway, as you know that I'd face Adam Taurus during that night in Beacon…" The sand-user says, making the crowd tensed for mentioned Adam. "If you want to know, then it's best I'll tell you the details the battle I'd fought…"
Gaara explains the details to the people of Menagerie, while Ilia, Corsac and Fennec is attempt to deny it about how that when Adam Taurus was crippled that according to the news that its true about the former did defeat and cripples the high-ranked and leader of the splinter group in the White Fang in the Vale branch; which claimed that he was indeed defeat and cripples Adam in the night in Beacon.
(AN: Think back Ch. 60 in the Shinobi Team of Remnant: SSGN; knowing that Gaara did facing Adam Taurus to save Blake and Weiss.)
And so, with Gaara telling the crowd about how he faced when he had saved Ghira's daughter Blake, and Jacques' former daughter Weiss on the verge of death by the hands of Adam Taurus. Surprisingly shocked how he fought the most high-ranked member and most inspirable individual of the White Fang ranks. And so, as Gaara reveals to the people of Menagerie about his relationship with the former Schnee, and as much as telling them, let the people listen to the white-haired girl's reasons.
And so, which Gaara claimed Weiss for wanted to regain her grandfather's legacy, the people of Menagerie is also known Nicolas Schnee' deeds. And so, she wanted to changed the company's reputation, by taken down Jacques Sch-no, Gelè, himself, he act for dishonored Nicolas' company for act of corruption (unknown to the people of Remnant regarding Whitley was incapacitate).
And so, the people of Menagerie are understandable and accept Gaara's state of reason regarding Weiss. They know about Weiss' singing performance time after time, rumors about her disappearing act that cause her pursuers lost their chances that they made a wrong time, regarding Jacques' wanted her back in Atlas.
Corsac and Fennec wanted to deny along with Ilia about Adam's defeat, and surely thought he was unstoppable. And knowing that scars that Adam receives, and knowing that his mind in furious in rage for wanted to revenge on Gaara for such humiliation, along with most of the White Fang numbers were reduced during that night at Beacon.
And they heard regarding Weiss' disownment and its best if they'll still chance to have her in their hands and bargains to exchanges Jacques for releasing the Faunus miners in Solitas. And its best that to do, is to be sure that their brothers and sisters will free, until informed Adam about this sudden discovery.
"…But, I'll give you a demonstration about my 'true' power…and I'm sure you're aware about the 'Breach' Incident in Vale."
Another Faunus, another male, one of the reporters had spoke up, stepping in.
"Excuse me, Mr. Sabaku? I thought it was just a made-up, no offence, I need to prove to confirmed about NINE giant animals with numerous of tails during that time that the Grimm had entered the population of Vale."
"So…you wanted to know about the giant Raccoon-dog with a single tail just like my sister over there?" Gaara asked, and gestures at Yugito, while she had two blue tails with black markings.
"Yes, I wanted to see it to our own eyes."
Gaara turns to Yugito to signals at each other for demonstrate the power of theirs. As the former steps out of the podium, and then as he and Yugito burst out their demonic chakra that visible to the eyes of the startled crowd, and then launched themselves into the air that surprises them how high they had jumped.
*BOOMF!*
The forms of Gaara and Yugito engulf both sand and blue flames with black accents, and then both flames and sand skyrocketed into the air, covering them in a large veil of smoke.
The reporters were waiting for something came out of the smoke, and now it clears, causes everyone awed, while the White Fang were began to terrified at what they witnessed something came out of the smoke, feeling dread within their core that something expecting what's behind it.
And now, both giant silhouette hands into both sides of the Belladonna house, without get smashed, to see the giant forms of Gaara's One-tailed Tanuki (Raccoon-dog) and Yugito's Two-tailed Cat.
"There you have it, people of Menagerie…" Gaara spoke up in demonic tone that startles them. "It's no need to be afraid, as much this is what I am being this form."
The reporters were completely astonished; while the White Fang among the crowd hidden were also terrified at how powerful Gaara was; while Illia was terrified at the mountain-size monster Tanuki (Raccoon-Dog) with a single tail, along with a blue flaming cat with two tails.
'Is this…this 'man', Blake date with.' She says in thoughts, disbelief at the sight of that…monster.
Along with the Albien brothers were seeing two giant beasts with numerous of tail(s) spurts out that looks just like they had seen it before, that understands and regarding the incident in Vale were true. It is first time for seeing them in the first time in their very own eyes.
"I don't use this form for my purpose during the fight with Adam Taurus, once I needed to, I would use my 'boost' to defeat him. Which because I'll only use to wipe out of it…and knowing that if I take my role as Menagerie's guardian, and IF I will created an extendable landscape for increasing the borders of Menagerie."
"So…uh, you're serious to make a landscape?" The reporter stated, after the recovery from the shocked at the sight of two mountain-size animals.
"That's true…but and also, 'I' only can do to create, THIS!" Gaara says, as he extended his demonic arm at where he had pointed to pin-point that he can created an office building.
Suddenly, a ton of sand shots out onto the palm of Shukaku form, that flows towards to where Gaara had pointed at for the office building. As the crowd rushed backward without getting pushed (without getting crowd stampeded), and took a view of where sees all of sand had sudden formed a building noticing that a shape is formed itself.
Once it's finished within seconds, that happens to be the exact replica of Kazekage's office, minus the Kanji's symbol, but also had the symbol of the 'Sand' (an Hourglass). (1)
The people of Menagerie are surprising that Gaara in Shukaku Form had build a office building in seconds.
"No way! A seconds! And that means that he will provided new homes for sure by…" The same worker says, disbelief at Gaara's handy work, took a sight of the giant clay building.
"That's true…I can use sand due to its minerals of elements that could make clay and making buildings." Gaara says in demonic.
*Poof!*
Suddenly, both Gaara and Yugito's tailed-beast forms is engulfs by a poof of smoke erupts, and then seeing them had reverted their forms, and then landed in their former positions – Gaara is in the podium, and Yugito is landed next to her boyfriend, Sun.
"…and I'm sure that I will provided you with new homes with my abilities. And I'm sure knowing that won't be crowded any longer…and I'm sure that I'll created a orphanage for the orphan Faunus will live to be sheltered, nicely."
The children and caretakers were awed at Gaara will provide a new home for them.
"And I'll build it besides my office, and so that I can able to visit by provided you all everything that for the young ones with my all my working." He added.
The children were happy for Gaara had provided shelter and depends on how they will considered him their hope.
"And so, I will prepared to open my official business here in Menagerie, and that would gain attention to all in the World of Remnant, and I will be travel to Desert Area of Sanus to liberate the other Fauuses were in the mining operations that owned by the Jacques, and I'm sure that I will do with my power to extract many of the Dust in the desert sands. And I'm sure this is why I am called 'Gaara of the Sand'."
With the speech caught the ears of the Faunus and the reporters, listen very word from him, about how Gaara can do to his power to liberate the rest of the Faunus in the mining operation, and then attempt to form his own mining operation in deserts of Vacuo.
Because of his Semblance, they had seen it or not, which knowing that he can get Dust from the ground with only little to no difficulty. He also stores around in his own office building and prepared to shipping it to the Three Kingdoms, as much as Atlas gotten their own Dust, and thank to Jacques' company, that the world of Remnant had no longer making interact the Schnee Dust Company, that considered being rivals each other.
For now, with Gaara's fair policy for both Faunus and Humans, making it popular company and store. And knowing this is only just began for the former to starting his business.
And then the Faunus along with its supporters is being protected by the shadow protectors. Whenever they are in trouble, always there to help them out; and then had experience security force for Gaara's company and have spies for Gaara, himself.
"And…I behalf of Shukaku Dust Company, is now official opened, I'll provide you ALL my products of Dust! Instead, I will NOT sell my products to the White Fang for attempt to declare war against humanity…"
The Faunus while the reporters were disbelief of what they had heard about Gaara will provide Dust to all Faunus, and knowing that he had refuse to delivered Dust to Atlas, and surely that Gaara Sabaku is NOT like Jacques Schnee, himself, about he will give them Dust, and also knowing he is attempt to liberate and free the Faunus who works in deserts of Vacuo.
While the White Fang members among the crowd seething in adsorb for Gaara denied to provide Dust to their Organization, knowing regarding what happen to Grom Hellscream and his group, that tried to cooperate with him, and attempt to blackmails him that is completely futile; it is impossible for to use that weakness against him.
"…and I'm assure you all that you wanted to work with me, and I'm sure that I wanted to had to deliver my products to ALL three Kingdoms. You all know that Atlas got Dust on their possession, am I right?"
Most of the Faunus reply confirmed about Solitas had their down Dust than delivered around the world of Remnant, and knowing because Jacques is being power hunger that he wanted to win for money and high reputation.
"Good, I understand for my sympathy to Faunus for you all had 'dislike or 'hatred' on ONE single man who being thorn on the side, Jacques Schnee…"
The name is mentioned, causes the Faunus frowns and sneered in anger for the man who considered a devil to all Faunus race.
"…on the opposite on that 'man'? I'M also the same thing as he does. I'm assuring you that I will attempt to bring this man down. I can 'promise' you. Like the way of Naruto Uzumaki does, he never gives up, and never goes back on his words. I did admire his ways, and I will NOT break your promise to Faunus, and I'm assured you all for the humans had addressed you as 'second civilians'."
The people of Menagerie for how touch the speech of his that he wanted to take down Jacques Schnee, and knowing that Weiss, the former daughter/heiress is also attempt to liberate the Schnee Dust Company for the corruption.
"…and so, I'll look forward for this future for humans and faunus will be equaled, and I'll help be the ONE who build a better and brighter future…and I promise you…for all of the Faunuses."
With Gaara's speech that touches the Faunus in Menagerie for how considered the redhead as a savior of Faunus population, along with the other eight jinchuuriki brothers and sisters regarding helping the Faunus for this solution.
"Mr. Gaara…" One of the faunus, who appears to be female, step in through the crowd. "I had a brother works in the mines in Vacuo. I REALLY wanted to say this but to beg, please…help him from his fate when they were forced for the mining operation for that bastard Jacques."
"Yes, I was aware about it in Vacuo that own by the Schnee, and I'm sure that I will help him to prevent his fate. Like I said, I promise you." Gaara replied.
"Thank you…" She says grateful that had hopes for saving her brother. "…and I'm sure that I will sign myself to work with you…"
"Me too!" A male Faunus says with a white dog ears. "I mean, the humans never let us work within the mines in Atlas, until I'd heard what happen to my cousin, and count me in to join your company. I was work with a accounting."
"Hmm, you're hired, and I am counting on you." Gaara reply nodded, without hesitated.
"YES! I am look forward for working with you. Don't worry, boss, I won't let you down." He says joyful for being hired. "I'll tell cousin about this, knowing that he'll quit his current job, that easily."
One by one, many people of Menagerie starting to take sides with Blake, by being sign-in into Gaara's official Company after he build his office building in a mere seconds. Knowing the White Fang had tried to give reasonable for humans are the enemies to the race.
Ilia looked at all of people of Menagerie who were signing up to joined Gaara's business, and so far that due to his unique/evolved Semblance of his that could produce Dust, as she wanted to reveal herself to intervenes it to tell the people that wanted to taken down humanity.
The chameleon Faunus was about to do it, but, then sudden felt her neck is being touched by a cold steel, as she heard a familiar voice from behind her.
"I wouldn't do that, if I were you…"
Ilia's head slowly turn to the source of the whisper with her eyes rolled to the side, causes her eyes widen to see Mari Fuujin, had her head conceal in the hood, who stood beside her in few feet away among the crowd with a throwing knife in left hand, which that surprises the former at the latter who appears in the crowd that slip through her presence that how did she sneaked pass it without getting noticed.
"Ma…Mari Fuujin?" Ilia say in whispered, sneering with disbelief.
"As much I wanted to slit your throat swiftly, if you yell in outrage. But being factionista and a master thief…And I would advise to best to walk away, or you didn't know that Asher will take the shot on you."
Hearing that, Ilia wasn't expecting that Mari Fuujin was indeed among the crowd without the people notice her presence, like a predator to a prey. Seems that Mari was waiting, while Ilia knew that she was only waiting to have a reason to kill her; what she didn't knew was that she was also gotten in the sights of Asher, who is in the rooftop, aims his double-barrel rifle at where her position was.
"You better stay here, and watch the show." Mari advises Ilia, sarcastic; while held her in submission with her throwing knife in hand.
Ilia looked confused at Mari's sudden statement, then its best to remain to observe this conference, if possible for what they were up to, and then she'll made sudden escape, once she needs to escape without getting caught or killed.
Seeing the people of Menagerie had putting their hopes for wanted the Faunus' future will put to the next, and taken challenges Jacques' might, and surely that they sees Gaara as their new hope and a savior to all Faunus, and also the others such as Naruto will do the same.
"Thank you, people of Menagerie. I am looking forward for this up to come for the business is nearly completely opened until we have a situation in hand…anyway, the representatives of Fuujin Internationals would like to give you something you all wanted to witnessed…Once again, thank you. Karou?"
Now, with Gaara had ended his speech, until Karou Fuujin steps into the podium after the former called him in. As the redhead sand user would rejoined his lover, and until stretch his hand at the crowd, that causes the sand erupts below Ilia's feet that startles her, when Mari had decide to leave the area and conceal the crowd.
The crowd spreads out the way, which causes their eyes widen at the sight of the Ilia.
"Hey! She's with the White Fang?" One of the Faunus pointed at her, judging the mask she is wearing. Until seeing her mouth is closed by Gaara's sand, which while struggled to be released.
"Hello, People of Menagerie, I would like to thank Mr. Sabaku for having an uninvited guest." Karou says announced. "As you may know, I would like to show you people that might you to know about the true colors of the White Fang. Good thing that we have THREE representatives will get to wacth this 'awesome' movie…"
The people of Menagerie were completely curiously, while Ilia were trying to attempt to get herself free from Gaara's sand. Which of course until her ears that perk that causes her turns to Karou; as before he continues.
"…Now, as much as you THINK about how the White Fang will put down humans that letting Adam Taurus will do to your work…and what about THIS will let the people see what the White Fang had increasing…" Karou stated, as he takes out his scroll and places her scroll and place it onto the podium, and then the hologram monitor on the podium displays a footage, and tap a footage of a label: 'BLAKE'S MEMORIES'.
With Karou tap the audio and plays Blake's memories on Vale, causes Ilia's eyes widen through the mask at the footage that meant too place of the meeting where Roman Torchwick was on the docks at Vale, a human, assisting the White Fang for stealing Dust in Vale, along with provide weapons such as the prototype Atlesian Paladins.
"THEY MAKE ASSOCIATE WITH A HUMAN!" One of the Faunus exclaims at the footage about it.
"I WAS THERE!" Blake exclaims, claimed to confirm the proof, telling the people about it. "I was there at the docks and meeting/recruitment center at Vale! Roman Torchwick was associate with the White Fang months ago, the man who is also made associate happens to be Cinder Fall herself, she had made him her own shadow without anyone suspicious that who to be is the ringmaster of the events!"
Blake continues. "Adam had led the assault on Beacon Academy that night! I was nearly killed that time, along with my teammate! He did associates with her to begin with, and even more additional humans who led the invasion…I witnessed our kind almost killed, and with a grateful of the Heaven Federation made us a safe haven. Even though that that's NOT the White Fang had to be…even our race killed each other!"
With Blake glance at Gaara, that signals to release Ilia, so with the latter obliged and he had recalls his sand to release her, which she'll take the truth about how the White Fang's actions. Hearing that regarding Blake saying is true about
"Is this true, Ms. Blake? About our kind killed each other?"
Ilia can't bear to how many people of Menagerie is started to taken sides with Blake, turns out that knowing that the proof regarding Townsville in Sanus were being liberated, and its been revealed to the eyes of Menagerie.
And it's best to escape, seeing Iila steps back, and notice glares around Menagerie.
"THAT'S A LIE! DON'T LISTEN THOSE COWARDS! THESE ARE NOTHING BUT-" Ilia yells to everyone.
*SMACK!*
"UGH!" Ilia exclaims, in agony in pain.
Her sentence were cut by something hard behind her head; as she places her hand onto behind her hand then she looks at it to see blood, if her aura would protect her from sudden hit, and turns to greet a glaring fellow female Faunus with ears of the bobcat, who toss a rock at Ilia.
"You and the White Fang 'are' the monsters, terrorists, killers to our kind, and 'we' are not cowards, and same goes called the Belladonnas, cowards…to us, we are not…" She says to Ilia, disagrees, at the White Fang's philosophy in cold tone of hers.
"…and I thought they're still pacifists that we wanted peace with humanity…I owned Mari Fuujin for saving my son from those monsters, her father and the rest his fellow corrupted humans who accuse us, they about the same level as the 'Jacques Schnee', himself; I'd respected the one named Nicolas who treat Faunus good, when I was little girl when my dad works with him when I'd meet him…and until I'd heard about what happen to Townsville…that's where my son is…but now we wanted to side with Adam Taurus? He is a 'true' monster, after all. And you all think that we sees him as a 'hero'?"
Seeing her felt anger and sadness about those sudden events.
"I agreed with her! Knowing Adam started to corrupt our children with hatred policy! I would remain like Chief Ghira does after all! And I'd say, I'm joining Ms. Blake! And even being her side!"
Ilia couldn't believe of what she had heard from the mother of her son who resident in Townsville. Knowing that the White Fang cannot win like what happen that night in Beacon, along with knowing that didn't had enough firepower to face such a monster.
"I'M JOINING THE FAUNUS FREEDOM FIGHTERS!"
"ME TOO!"
"COUNT ME IN! AND I DON'T WANT 'YOU' BE HERE FOR SORT OF THING! I WOULD LIVE THAN JOINING IN THE LOSING SIDE OF THE WHITE FANG!"
"THIS IS 'NOT' THE WHITE FANG WE KNOW! BUT INSTEAD OF COOPERATE, BUT 'HURT' ANYONE! YOU WHITE FANG ARE NOT WELCOME TO MENAGERIE!"
"LEAVE THIS ISLAND, NOW! WE'LL FORCE YOU OUT INTO THE OCEAN AND NEVER COME BACK!"
And so, Ilia was surrounded by angry mob of Faunus, outrages and furious at, until many people of Menagerie will prepared to apprehend, and its best for now for her to escape with a terrified expression, as she uses her weapon and flees from the angry mob of Menagerie.
With Ilia is gone out of sight until one of the Faunus would grabbed her.
"AFTER HER!" Saber yells, ordered his guards to pursuit.
Saber and the rest of the Menagerie guards move to chase down Ilia, followed by more citizens of Menagerie had joined the pursuit, while Corsac and Fennec seething in rage at everything of their motive is ruined by tons of solid proof had showned; but now that many Faunuses in Menagerie had made sides with Blake and the Faunus Freedom Fighters.
"We must report to Brother Adam…" Corsac says to his brother to needed to report, which receives a nod from Fennec.
Not to mention regarding there is nothing that they had tried to find anything to use against Gaara. Even though that Grom and his gang had not seen or heard from them when following and made negotiate with the redhead sand user.
Blake and Ghira angrily glare from the stage, along with Gaara and Yugito, while Kali has a worried look on her face, then Shiruba and Karou exchange smiles victorious for good guys, while the White Fang is still zero. And lastly is Mari Fuujin among the crowd also smiles, sinisterly, that which had shown the people in the proof in the media that gotten so far.
"Well, my task is done, and I better head to where Weiss' location…"
With that Mari said, as she left the press conference, heading to her Savior Gundam.
After seeing the Menagerie guards chasing Ilia, along with the angry mob of Menagerie civitilans and until Karou had tapping the mic that gotten the Faunus' attention.
"We're apologized for sudden interference of the 'Loser Fang' member that spats out a 'tantrum'. Her words of Adam are nothing but speeches of a retard." He said with mocking word for White Fang, causes the Albien brothers seething in rage for this jab of mockery to their order.
"Theirs is more to it about how the White Fang had done…we have brought a solid proof about the Townsville in Sanus."
As Karou took out his scroll, and then a hologram monitor display an audio screen, and plays its video; Corsac and Fennec started to get anxiously at the video regarding at Townsville being liberate.
The people of Menageries had seen the video footage of that place of Townsville in Sanus, as the press conference had quickly prepared went to the stage and ask for the copy for the proof footage about Townsville's tyranny.
Causes the Faunus gasped at what they had witnessed and the eyes of Albain brothers widen at the sight of footage. As most of the Faunus population murmuring each other about how the White Fang had commit tyranny to that town that populates Faunus.
"THAT'S WHERE MY COUSIN IS!? I haven't heard from him and my other relatives since that happen!" One of the Faunus pointed at the footage about Townsville being tyranny.
"MINE TOO! MY RELATIVES WERE ALSO IN THAT CITY!" The other one concluded.
"WHY WE WERE NOT TOLD!?"
Most of the Faunus population wasn't aware about what happen to Townsville in Sanus, which didn't expecting for they have not receive their messages during time after time. Corsac and Fennec were seething at the commotion that this is bad for them when the commotion keeps going about this.
"We have brought a witness, who happens that just arrive Menagerie last night." Shiru stated, as she raise her hand that signals someone entered the stage, that caught the Albain brothers attention, with a shocking in their expression that they weren't aware about the witness came to Menagerie.
Once the witnessed enters the stage, causes the eyes of the representatives of the White Fang seeing one of the witnessed among the stage, happens to be the new mayor of Townsville, Christopher 'Christ' Stone, the leader of Faunus resistance.
As seeing Christ went to the podium, before Shiru steps out, and lets him take over, and he spoke up.
"…You may know me as the 'Freedom Phantom', the leader of the Faunus Resistance, AND the new mayor of Townsville after I retake my father's place… My brother Troy and my father were executing by that sick bastard, Tatarin, he did had double-crossed us when he had taken over Townsville…by OUR OWN KIND!"
Albain brothers had seeing a witnessed came to the stage before that turns out that no one expecting that a witness came to Menagerie to tell the people about what their Order (the White Fang) had done. Knowing that Christopher is the 'Freedom Phantom' of the Faunus resistance, and until they heard and learn about Townsville is being liberated. (2)
Turns out, the fox faunus brothers were getting desperate and panic at the footage that proves that their organization had becoming way crueler than humans.
"THEY TURN CHILDREN INTO MONSTERS! THAT'S UNACCEPTABLE!" A female Faunus exclaims furiously outrage at the White Fang had done to the poor innocent children; watching poor FAUNUS children were forced to learn to kill.
"WE THOUGHT THEY HAD TOLD US THEY WERE 'FINE' AT TOWNSVILLE! AND WHY THEY DIDN'T GIVE US THEIR LETTERS AND BEING TOLD ABOUT THIS!"
Corsac and Fennec were really getting desperate and seething in rage at how the evidence about Townsville were being collected, which thought it was being delete without anyone will know about what has happen.
With Christ tap the mic once again that gotten the crowd settled their anger at the White Fang, and turns their attention at him.
"People of Menagerie, this proof itself are 100% real, as much as you may know about Townsville was being state of under control by the White Fang AND Tatarin…when I had led by resistance fighters and liberate and retake my father's place…We were NEVER joined the White Fang! I thought they were pacifist to formed peace with humanity, but NOW they become terrorists!" Christ announced.
"As much as I DID kill them for avenge my father and my brother, I killed that son of a bitch, with my own hands, and retake my father's position as the Mayor of Townsville… But…we won't force you to join us for assisting and save Haven Academy in Mistral from Adam's assault. I know all of you won't be joining us to save Haven, as the leader of the Freedom Fighters will be helping Haven Academy in Mistral…" He added, as he gestures Shiru to take over and adding more statement.
"My brother and I, the representatives of Fuujin Internationals, AND also being the members of Heaven Federation will be helping Haven Academy, too. Well, if possible that we'll provide Menagerie a serious protection, if Mr. Sabaku will approve. So, as much as we'll be standing by…" She stated, hearing that, receives a nod from the redhead sand user before turns his eyes at him.
The people of Menagerie were being tensed at Christ's speech, along with Shiruba, to be added, and knowing that the resistance fighters will be helping Haven Academy in Mistral. With Christ switch over to Shiru again, and spoke up in the podium.
"…And until then, we'll be waiting for you all to decide, if wanted to be reconsidered, go to see Mr. Ghira or Blake for your decisions…hope that you all will made a choice…and that is all, and good day, people of Menagerie." He finished.
With his speech of Christ had ended, as he left the stage with a shocking and disbelief faces, along with outrages expressions about how the White Fang's actions, even they tried for this nonsense lies. Knowing the fraction they had associate thought the same thing that before.
Corsac and Fennec glares at the retreating form of Christ for ruining everything which considered a bigger threat besides Gaara Sabaku; turns out, which that they needed to report to Adam about this press conference.
Which Christ needed to be…'silence' of the words for how telling the People of Menagerie about their Order had becoming, and knowing that using the death of their fellow Faunus as martyrs to increasing hatred on Humanity.
==Later, at the Guest Room of Belladonna Family House==
"How was the speech?" Christ questioned.
"Pretty good, knowing your teachings with Mr. Sasuke was quite impressive." Shiruba remarks at the Freedom Fighter's speech.
"Ditto with that, which it seems that the White Fang looked pissed at the stunt we had pulled." Karou stated.
Christ chuckles for such comment, knowing that they didn't know about why Christ arriving Menagerie via VTOL, which turns out, it did.
"I'll tell 'Boss' about the press conference; and my fighters will be mobilized." Christ informed.
"Tell him that, Christ, and tell Mari for this." Karou reply, knowing 'Christ' happens to be…
"Sure, Karou." Christ replies, as he forms a familiar hand-seal, and engulf with a poof of smoke, and once it fades…
…THAT happens to be the Shadow Clone of Christ.
Because Sasuke gives Christ a gift, chakra, since he's level of reserves is Jonin-rank; which it was considered both facts that he had aura at the same time; since Aura as the shield of his and while Chakra is the sword. It is been months since C. Naruto/Arashi's blood spy clone trained him to learn to harness the power of chakra. Which he did taught him the Art of Ninjutsu after all, which unlikely to the others didn't have chakra yet.
"I knew Christ had send a Shadow Clone to tell the people of Menagerie about the White Fang's motive and their actions." Shiruba said comment, amusingly.
"True…don't you agreed, Gaara?" Karou said, as he and his twin sister turns to Gaara who being briefing about the trap they were setting.
"Yes, that will get them attention, if they'll plan to terminate us - Myself, Blake, and her family." The sand user stated.
"While if my sister and I will be framed by Albain brothers for killing you and the Belladonna family, telling them that it was humans take the blame." The shadow swordsman stated.
"That's right…did you get anything from the captives?" Gaara questioned.
"Nothing so far, knowing that if either they will plan to join up with the Albain brothers for this quest, or the rest will plan to rendezvous with Adam's fraction. I need to get more Intel, by we needed…one of those cleaver foxes." Karou replied.
"So…we needed either Corsac or Fennec had those Intel, knowing that they were followers to Adam Taurus." Gaara stated regarding the Albain brothers.
"That's true, Gaara, we had everything is set." Shiru declared.
Gaara nod his head, slightly, as he turns to take his leave, and turns to the Kage twins.
"I'll be sure that let me know if either myself or both of you will tell Blake and her family about this operation while keeping them into the dark, and as much as I did betray Blake's trust." He said.
"I know Gaara, it is painful regret not telling her or her parents about it, simply that to 'trick your friends to trick your enemy'. Basically, to not only truly trick someone, but also the traitor. Of coruse, I'm with the Ghost, with my psionic powers." Karou stated.
"…I guess that, that won't hurt, if they'll be forgiven once this situation is over, when it's under way." Gaara said.
The Kage twins nodded their heads agreement about what Gaara said for telling the Belladonna family about this. Knowing that keeping in the dark in 'shadows' will needed to reveal themselves out of it.
==At Mistral; in the Guest House==
Oscar Pine is seen sitting on a red armchair, nervously looking at the members of Team RNNJR along with Naruto, as they fawn over him; minus Sasuke, who took a glance at the former.
While Zeke and Johnny were give the young farm boy some company, which knowing sometimes act as guards, cornered him, that claimed to be Professor Ozpin, the headmaster of Beacon Academy, which it is mysterious about how the Beacon's Headmaster was possessed within the young civilian.
"Did he age backwards?" Nora's voice, surprisingly who found the information to be funny in away.
"I don't think that it's not, Nora." Pyrrha's voice denied Nora's question about Professor Ozpin never had his age backwards.
"He's possessed!" Jaune added, exclaims, looked frighten at, thought a ghost possesses within Oscar, claimed he was.
"Or reincarnated!" Ren added to the conversation about Ozpin was reborn as Oscar, early.
"Ozzy, is it 'really' you in there, seriously!?" Naruto added, while Sasuke had his eyes sharp at Oscar, claimed to be Ozpin.
"Oh! Isn't it weird?" Ruby concluded, stupidly, causing Oscar looked down uncomfortably.
"…It is very weird, yes." The youngest answered truthfully to the group's words of statement/question, then turns to Naruto, who stood between Ruby and Ren. "And for your question about Ozpin, yes, he's within me."
"When it that happen?" Sasuke questions Oscar; he stood besides between Ruby and Nora, lets out a flinched at his tone.
On Oscar's eyes, with everyone fawns him with a suspicious and curious expressions; Jaune with a thinking pose, Ren and Nora had their hands on their hips, Ruby had her fists onto the side her chin, Naruto had disbelief looked, and Sasuke with a frowning face.
"Okay, okay." Qrow's calls out for breaking up, causing the group turns to him; he emerges from the kitchen holding a cup in his hand, but finally that he was no longer drunk at the moment. If he drank coffee to cure his hangover, right about now. Not to mention that Anko is still at the one of the guest room in this house, sleeping from her last night's drinking, before seeing Ozpin resided Oscar.
"Let's all just take a second and remember that this is very overwhelming for 'everyone'." The scythe wielder added.
Hearing that, Team RNNJR and Naruto, includes Sasuke, looked at the way when fawns Oscar closely, and suddenly they all step back and nervously chuckle, while Sasuke had his hands in the air, in defense. It was awkward for overwhelmed the young man.
"Thanks." Oscar appreciated at Qrow.
*Door opens*
Just as until the door opens, causes the group turn to it which seeing Jing came through, accompany by Yasha behind him, which noticed that C. Naruto/Kurosaki wasn't among the group, which knowing Naruto's counterpart/brother is still at the lower levels for Intel.
With Jing had noticed Team RNNJR, Naruto, and Sasuke within distance away from Oscar Pine, seems that they were react about the young farm boy, and until felt a signature within him, until he dug into Oscar's mind, causes him smiled at him.
"Hmph, thought so…" The Filipino-decent muttered, as he approaching Oscar, and says. "Zeke had called and filled me in to explained in short notice…I would have thought seeing you here…Ozpin."
That surprises Oscar, along with Naruto and RNNJR about Jing knows Ozpin within the former.
"Wait, you knew?" Oscar says at the Leader of Heaven Federation/Patriots regarding Ozpin resided him.
"Yup, before I made alliance with Ozpin in secret, he told me the full details: his past, status, and mission. But…guess that HE will tell you everything, as well. Well, if I didn't know that Ozpin that if proves that where 'he' was, and here we are! Looking at him, Ozpin is NOW resided in the THIRTEEN year old civilian boy!" Jing exclaims, answers Ozpin's question, along with Naruto and the rest.
"Trust him, Oscar. He is an ally of mine." Ozpin's says to Oscar, mentally.
"It's true…" Jing confirms Ozpin's statement, that surprises Oscar about he had head the Beacon's headmaster was saying, while gazing at his expression. "If you're wondering, I'm a psychic, I had psionic abilities that able to read and link people's mind, so among them can communicate with any us, along with Ozpin's signature of spiritual."
"Geez, we wish that we had Ino with us, after all." Naruto says sarcastic; which less serious about if they brought Ino for this situation.
"Good thing that I'm still here and I will prepare to link any of you if you wanted to talk to Ozpin." Jing informed, receiving a nod from Ozpin and the group about how the former is a psychic. "Anyway, a lot has indeed happened after all, so it will take time to get used to it."
Oscar nods in agreement, before Qrow takes a seat on the couch next to Oscar, Ruby, Naruto, and Nora have taken a seat on couch perpendicular to Qrow's, while Jaune, Pyrrha, Sasuke and Ren remain standing. While Jing also taken sit next to Qrow, while Yasha sitting in the top of it with her hand place into her lover's shoulder.
With Jing signals Zeke and Johnny for doing their tasks, causes the two nod for respond, as they walks out to the door, as seeing Johnny opens the door, and then Zeke first steps out, and then the ninja samurai leaps up into the air.
*Faint thud!*
And sudden, heard sound that came from the rooftop that startles them, slightly, indicated that Zeke was taken patrol in the roof as lookout, and until follows by Johnny had he steps outside, that his role to guard the door, afterwards that he closes it; as Jing turns to Qrow, Oscar, and the co.
"I ordered Zeke and Johnny for patrol, after they had report to me about Ozpin, and I'm sure that without anyone such as Mosuke's men will eavesdrop our meeting." He explains, receives a nod from Oscar (due to Ozpin had told him to), along with Qrow. While Ruby, Jaune, and Nora was awestruck at how they silently communicate at each other.
Oscar shares a brief look with Ruby, who giggles, causing Oscar to blush, and looks down nervously with an apology.
"Ah, sorry!" Oscar exclaims, as he briefing looks away. "It's just I've never really met Huntsman and Huntress before."
Hearing that for this awkward scene, causes Qrow chuckles at Oscar for never been encountered or met a Huntsman/Huntress knowing that would had blame him.
"Well, they're still in-training. I'm currently the only Huntsman here." The drunken swordsman said, trying to brag when he noticed that were all eyes staring at him with blank looks which he simply raises his hands in understanding and in defense, before Naruto spoke up.
"I guess you got a point, Oscar…" The blonde ninja reply understandable, and lets out a frown expression, then a glint eye flash out in his left eye. "And I'm sure that you're planning to hit on my girlfriend, don't you?"
"What! No, no! I never attention to looked at your girlfriend, really! It's just that because if they are, after all. I mean, Oz told me about you and Ruby are a couple, along with the other one! I was surprised a single man dates two girls instead of one!" Oscar says frantic, raises his hands in defense, that causes Naruto lets out a laugh at his reaction, its priceless to hear it; knowing how he acts which happens to be he had influence of Ozpin after all.
"Relax, kid, I'm only joking." He said, causes the farm boy felt embarrassed at such a joke. "Ruby and I were kind of this relationship, along with Yang, if Ozzy would had told you about her. But, you're not the only one had some entity such as good ol' fur-ball within me."
"Hehehe…I would suggest that not to fall for that, because of Mr. Naruto's hobby was pranks when comes to give harmlessly…to my students, for humiliations…and also I'll tell you everything about Naruto's past." Ozpin says mentally to Oscar in his head, amusingly, about Naruto's prank habits. And so, Ruby is next to spoken up, concluded.
"That's true, Naruto had one before, unlike you, well, similar I think, you could say 'an fox entity was within' him… Well, uh…we've never met a person with two souls! So, first times all around." Ruby said shrugged, just before Naruto realized something about that reference.
"Wait, doesn't Blake have a book about this kind of situation?" Naruto asked Ruby, who is her eyes widen in realization about recalled that time at before coming to Beacon Academy.
"Oh, you're right! I can't wait for you to meet Blake, meeting a guy had another soul enters the former's body is really amazing!" Ruby said, chuckled nervously, from the smiling Oscar.
"Don't forget me? I had a soul of my counterpart had guide me to do." Sasuke added, declared.
"Wait, really!?" Ruby says surprised about Sasuke's counterpart - Uryu, and so receives a nod from the latter.
"During my new eye is transplanted that belongs to my counterpart, it means that my counterpart's soul is bound within it meaning that my counterpart, dubbed as 'Uryu', will be my guide for this journey, and I'm sure that he'll taught and train me everything if anything is impossible for the future up-come." Sasuke explained, receiving an awestruck from Ruby and Nora, along with rest of Team JNPR known about his training in Sanus.
Just before Qrow clears his throat to interject the conversation they were having.
"Not to break up the 'getting-to-know-you' game, and along with more talk about another 'person-with-two-souls', but we need to have a talk. Mind showing us your little parlor trick, kid?"
Hearing that from Qrow for changing the subject, followed by telling him to do, Oscar just another had his head looks down, uncomfortably once again, he lets out groans.
"Yeah, okay. Just so you know, I'm still here…" Oscar reply, informed; seeing Naruto and Sasuke had their heads slight nod understandable.
Ruby and members of team JNPR looked at him confusion - while Jaune, Pyrrha, and Ren share a brief look at each other. Oscar than lowers his head and closes his eyes.
*Whooshing*
Suddenly, a green and white aura shines from his body for a moment. Oscar opens up his eyes, which are now glowing, and he smiles. When he speaks, they all hear a familiar voice overlapping with a bunch of other voices, including Oscar's.
"It is so very good to see you again, students."
All of Team JNPR, Ruby, Sasuke, and Naruto share brief looks of confusion.
"Wait, what just happened?" Jaune wondered.
"Professor…Ozpin?" Ren says; causes Pyrrha gasped at the familiar voice she had heard from Oscar had spoke.
"Correct. And though I may be the one speaking, Oscar is still present mentally. He's merely handed over the control, so to speak." The possessed Headmaster spoke up, which Oscar allows Ozpin to take control of his body.
"Just don't make us do anything embarrassing…" Oscar's voice had telling the Beacon's headmaster for not saying something embarrasses the farm boy.
"I'm afraid this all must be very perplexing." Ozpin stated.
"And alarming, and bizarre, and just really kind of hard to believe overall!" Nora said looked freaked out about how weird it is; that causes Ozpin chuckling at Nora's reaction.
"It's good to see you children still have your sense of humor…" The headmaster says happily to see his students again, and then turns to Pyrrha. "…And I see that you're still alive after all, Ms. Nikos."
"Oh my, it is you, Professor Ozpin. I…I had sworn that I was hallucinated or dreaming, but this is…surprised." Pyrrha said looked surprised at seeing Ozpin possesses Oscar, feeling awkward speaking to the headmaster, but only his voice itself.
"That's true, Ms. Nikos. And I'm sure that you're not hallucination at all, but yes, it's surprising." Ozpin reply, and then turns to Naruto and Sasuke.
"It's good to see you too, Mr. Uzumaki, Mr. Uchiha. And I was wondering where the rest of your team are?"
"You too, Ozzy, and I am so happy that you're here, alive; well, still kicking, ya'know. As for what you had asked about our team: Gaara is with Blake in Menagerie, and while Shikamaru is still at Vale taken care the mess that Beacon has, don't worry, any of them will come." Naruto answered receives a nod from Ozpin, understandable about what he had mentioned.
"Hn. I agreed with Dobe, we were taken separate ways to trained. During our recent travels around Anima, Naruto and I thought that it's just a feeling about your aura signature while we're at it. I didn't expecting that YOU were in the soul within this young citizen individual; although, another certain snake bastard wanted immortality by switching his soul to the next." Sasuke said to Ozpin regarding had his soul is infuse within Oscar; along with mentioned Orochimaru's 'immortality' jutsu able to transfer his soul to the next living host when his limits were ended.
"I see…That was expecting regarding you had mentioned…" Ozpin reply understandable about two members of Team SSGN, and then he starts to frown. "I know you've all been through tremendous hardship already. I'm sorry."
Hearing Ozpin had apologized to his students; Naruto felt a depressed negative emotion from the former for being guilt and he is being blamed to himself for what reason, knowing that he and the others taken burden to anyone such as he took the burden as the Jinchuuriki of Nine-tails.
And while Sasuke was curious for Ozpin's reasons, which knowing why he is so depressed at such why he blame himself.
"I mean, it's not your fault." Ruby says to Ozpin claimed not to blame, regarding the adventures she and the others been through.
(Cue the music soundtrack starts)
"It's all my fault." Ozpin declared, as he continues to speak, Qrow gets up and goes back to the kitchen. "'I told you once' that I made more mistakes than any man, woman, and child on this planet, and I wasn't exaggerating."
Ruby's eyes widen for she had recalled months ago about that time in the first day in Beacon Academy of their first semester.
==Ruby's Flashback Starts==
(AN: In Badge and Burden Chapter/Volume, hope that I decide to taken one of my story line that being progress some time.)
"Is it true, did you made a mistake?" Ruby asked, that she looked doubtful and sadden about Weiss' saying. About since she stated that Ozpin made a mistake for sure.
Which made the headmaster/professor laughed slightly and stated. "That remain to be seen."
"What did you mean?" Ruby confused, wondered
As Ozpin respond and he said for a reason. "I mean, it's only been one day. Ruby… I have made so many mistakes compared to the many man, women and child on this planet, but making you team leader wouldn't be."
"But at this moment, I would not consider your appointment to leader to be one of them." Ozpin said, as he leans in so he can look more directly at Ruby. "Do you?"
==Ruby's Flashback Ended==
'That's right! I remember the time what Professor Ozpin had said to me during my first day in the semester back at Beacon, about he did made so many mistakes…' She says in thoughts of what she had recalled. And so, decide to continue to listen to what Ozpin has to say.
"I'm…cursed. For thousands of years, I've walked the surface of Remnant, living, dying, and reincarnating in the body of a like-minded soul. The Professor Ozpin you all met was not my first form, and clearly wasn't my last. It's…an extraordinarily strenuous process on everyone involved."
Hearing Ozpin's explanation that he was cursed, which means that he'll tell everyone about his origins, expecting that wasn't his Semblance after all. Which Naruto and Sasuke was surprised and disbelief at Ozpin was cursed. And the Ozpin that they knew and met was not his only current form that he had during his reincarnation of what he said, like what Ren had stated.
On Naruto's case, along with others back at the World of Ninja regarding like the headmaster of Beacon is liked a human-version of the Tailed beast that when he/she dies (due to each tailed beast/bijuu had genders such as Matatabi, a female flame cat) within the Jinchuuriki along with, can be manifest within due to their tails representative of when it will be reborn in the random location.
"So who…'what'…are you?" Jaune inquired Ozpin about what he was, while Pyrrha was curiously at the possessed Headmaster's claimed what he was.
"I am the combination of countless men who've spent their lives trying to protect the people of Remnant." The Oz answered; began to explain to the group for his origin, as Qrow walks back into the common room and hands him a cup of tea.
"With every rebirth, my soul is eventually merged with another and I am changed, but my memories stay with me."
With Ozpin stares at the reflection Oscar at the cup of tea with a glowing eyes, before continue to explain everything about his past.
"This curse was bestowed upon me by the gods because I failed to stop Salem in the past."
Ozpin raised his head up at the group.
"But we 'must' stop her now." He finished declaration.
Hearing that, the group took a brief look at one to another for how Ozpin wanted to stop Salem. Which the fact that claimed that due to his past failures to stop her, while being cursed by the gods for failing to defeat Salem and his soul reincarnates to a new host every time, retaining all of his collective memories from previous hosts.
With Sasuke's case, he looked completely tensed at Ozpin being cursed, just like when comes like Orochimaru had able to achieve immortality, according to his counterpart, by transferring his soul to the next host, and also once his limit is reach to 3 years or so. And so that meaning that Ozpin was immortal soul, being cursed and punished by the gods for failing to defeat Salem in the past.
"…And how do we do that?" Ruby questions to Beacon's headmaster, want to do for the next action.
"We start…by ensuring the safety of the 'Relic of Knowledge'." Ozpin declared, completely serious.
==With Weiss, at Night==
Weiss Schnee awakens to find herself trapped in a cage and her wrists bound by rope. She looks around, and notices the bandits from earlier that took her. One of them is drinking, while the other notices Weiss waking up, chuckles that cause her to gasp being startled.
"Well, well, well, look who's awake." The Bandit #2 said, as he knocked his fellow bandit wearing a cloth wrap around his right eye that ruin his drink; seeing that causes the bandit 1 smiles.
"Wha…what's going on? Where am I?" Weiss wondered questions her captives.
"You know…"
Vernal's voice, she emerges from her tent.
"I never thought I'd see a Schnee in this camp."
"Vernal!?" The Bandit #1 with a head gasped, as he and his fellow bandit suddenly stand at attention, while the former hid his drink.
With Vernal walks over to Weiss' cage, holding Mytenaster in her hand. Weiss stands up, while her captor admires her weapon.
"What do you want?" Weiss demanded, glares at her captor.
"Straight to the point. I like it." Vernal admitted. "We don't normally deal in trafficking people - not really worth our time. But, once we realized we had a Schnee…"
She points Myrtenaster at Weiss.
"…that change." She finished.
"You're going to ransom me back to-" Weiss paused before give a question, which she looks down that she didn't want to bring up the subjected about her former father, and its best to give those bandits a counter, later.
"It's a shame you're a Schnee. You're probably do quite well around here." Vernal said smirking.
"I would 'never' sink your level." Weiss replied.
Hearing her says that, causes Vernal's expression turned into a frown.
"Just keep quiet and cooperate and you'll be back in your 'mansion' before you know it." She telling Weiss for silenced as she starts walking away from the white haired former heiress' cage.
"Don't make this complicated." The female bandit added.
"What's going to make this complicated is when my sister finds out I didn't make it to Mistral. You know my sister, don't you? Winter Schnee? Special Operative of the Atlas Military? She's in Mistral now, and when she hears I'm missing, it won't take her long to find me - 'and' you."
Hearing that, Vernal's eyes simply narrowed yet the two bandits start laughing, much to Weiss's surprise.
"What's so funny?" She demands the two of them.
Vernal turns back around, lets out her laugh, and says.
"Oh, I don't know if it's funny or sad, but you're clearly out of the loop. Your sister isn't in Mistral anymore. No Atlas personnel are in Mistral anymore. General Ironwood closed the borders and recalled all his little troops and tin cans. No one is coming to rescue you."
The bandits are once again laughing as Vernal walks away from Weiss, who closes her eyes forlornly. And then replaced with a deadpanned expression that she got another card in her sleeves, lets out a smirk smirked and then she spoke up.
"…Question: If you're saying is true about attempt to turn me over to Jacques Schnee on Atlas for the company's ransom? Because, if you were not aware the news about my disownment, if you did? I guess I had no concern about my wellbeing." She questioned.
Causes Vernal stops her tracks, along with the two bandits who laughed at her that sudden stopped, hearing such information being absorbed from the former heiress that was unheard of.
"W…what did you mean? You're serious!?" Vernal said at Weiss, which that sounds seriously.
Which she and the other bandits were completely obvious about them that they didn't seen it in the news and also her performance, if they had a scroll.
"I admitted for being disowned by my so-called 'father' for failed my task he give me due to the fact that attempt to control my life with such deplorable, I will mock him for his admits like what he cares, but the only family I had is my older sister and mother. And also…hope that my boyfriend will be furious if I was kidnap by the 'band of lowlife bandits'." Weiss said with a smirked on her face being sarcastic and admitting, along with mockery.
"Oh! Who says that Atlas is still in the borders of Mistral? Have you forgotten that I was talking about the Heaven Federation? Also if they know about my kidnapping about this…heh, knowing you all be trap like rats." She added with a sarcastic expression.
Vernal was seething in irritated annoyance for the former Schnee wasn't panic, or terrified, or being an 'heiress-like-personality' (aka Ojou-sama Mode), but also being admitted for being captured; along with the other bandits that somehow disbelief about the former heiress' admitting and seriousness, and so that she did takes it like she wasn't care.
And the side of expression lets out a terrifying looked all together that knowing the highly advance military that save Vale months ago, there is a report that many huge ships were in the borders of Mistral, knowing that it will be a problem facing one that would cause this tribe will be wipe out.
"Of course…As much as if 'some' people attempt to rat me out to, knowing that I was under the radar, and knowing that I am the 'star' celebrity to the world if they know about this if they'll know…knowing that a 'friend' of mine will suspected about my kidnapping, along with the people of Remnant knows…" Weiss concluded, regarding Mari Fuujin has given her something before she's was transferred to the cargo ship from Atlas.
"What did you mean?" Vernal asked frowns at Weiss' statement about her 'friend' she mentioned. She looked pretty anxious about what she said of what she had heard from.
Knowing that she is celebrity, and also the people of Remnant will outrages about her kidnapping, and also they will armed with teeth to attempt to assault on the Branwen Tribe.
Adding the more problem, knowing that she did watched her sing in front of the world of Remnant, and meaning that it will worst scenario if they'll know about the Branwen Tribe will be overwhelmed by the huge number of army and Huntsman to wipe them, group by group; knowing that they cannot survive with such numbers such as the Heaven Federation Army.
Until the news about the Vale's Military fraction is being formed, with newly advance weapons and technology they possessed, and knowing that they will be assault in full force.
"I for one cannot tell you…you told me no one can save me, but I had…'powerful friends'." Weiss answered, as she turns her back at them, then lay down, and closed her eyes, only her smirked on her face, before she'll drift herself into slumber; as she mentally added.
'…And also I will prepare to activate a transmitter to have the Heaven Federation will rescue me, and if I injured myself that I had my Vivre Card will sudden burned that lets Blake knows I'm troubled…Oh! I had forgotten my cuddling, beloved tanuki, he had the piece of my Vivre Card too, so, same vice-versa as Blake got my piece of it.'
Vernal growl and gritted her teeth annoyance, which had gotten her nerves from Weiss being mockery and admitting, as she was about to use her own weapon at, then calms down, then turns around and walks away from her cage with sleeping former Schnee, away from her ear shot, before went to the guards…
"I'm going to informed ma'am about this!" Vernal telling them, as her eyes rolled over her shoulder at Weiss was captive. "About the Ice Queen didn't take for being brought back to the Schnee for money. And also there is a problem about the World knows about her."
Telling the two bandit guards to report to the Tribe Leader (Raven), ignoring by Weiss while resting on the cage. Looked pretty anxious about Weiss' serious about the people such as an army will attack the camp if they'll know their location.
"Sure, Vernal. That brat sure did mock us… Not to mention that we heard about the soldiers will be a problem that if we tried to take on them…is she serious?" One of the bandits replied, feeling nervous about this situation will be bad.
"What she's says about she had powerful friends…then that means…" The other bandit concluded, his words paused until lets out a getting nervous something expecting.
Vernal nod her head slightly at the two bandit guards saying about what refers to, before turns her head to the former heiress once more, facing at the rear of the cage.
Unknown to Vernal and the guards, seeing Weiss' one of her eyes opens, rolled over her shoulder for she had overheard their slight conversation.
"…I will take I'd heard your question what you said…" She whispered without one of the bandit guards' statement, as she takes out a piece of Vivre Cards of Blake and Gaara on her pocket. "…Yes, I'm serious."
==Back to the Guest House in Mistral==
"THIS IS PERFECT!"
Hearing bubbling orange-haired bomber exclaims, energetic, and perform several of gestures such as arms crossed, followed by pointed at Ozpin within Oscar, and looked pumped at the moment.
"We were stuck at a dead end, but now, we can take little cute boy Ozpin to Lionheart and have him set things straight!"
"Please don't call me that." Ozpin said deadpanned at Nora.
"We're not sure that's the best idea." Qrow said declined her suggestion.
"Uggghhh…"
Nora groans and goes back to sit down next to Ren, Ruby, and Naruto; with her arms crossed with a 'hmph'. Sasuke shook his head at the former for wanted to have Ozpin to convinced Lionheart.
"But I thought the headmasters all took their orders from you." Ren said thoughtful at regarding the Headmasters of three Kingdoms taken orders from Ozpin.
"That 'was' the intention. Four lieutenants I can trust, especially during times in reincarnation. But Qrow told me about your meeting with Leonardo." Ozpin stated, as after he looked over to Qrow, then he gets up and walks towards a painting of Mistral. "He isn't just behaving irrationally, he's disobeying specific instructions I had left him. Something's wrong, I don't want to jump to conclusions, but I don't want to rule out any possibilities, either. No one outside of this room knows that I've paired with Oscar, and I think it may be best to keep it that way."
"Play things close to the chest until we get a better hand…while we had Marshal's jarheads is still at Vale, and prepared as possible." Qrow said, knowing there not all full power yet, without the others.
"Precisely…" Ozpin agrees, he turns around to face the rest of the group.
Hearing mentioned Lionheart's name from Ozpin's mouth regarding wasn't right that never get the feeling that what he said that something is not right, that gotten Naruto's attention about that subject; knowing that the Haven's headmaster had disobeyed Ozpin's orders and instructions.
"…Ozzy, I had something to know regarding Professor Lionheart…" Naruto began, that gotten Ozpin (in Oscar) attention to get to listen to the blonde's briefing. "…After he gives me the location where Team FHRY lives, along with Utakata. But, I can get the feeling about Professor Leo… I had…suspicious for what he didn't tell us something."
Ozpin (while Oscar overhears Naruto's briefing) eyebrow rose at such briefing a sudden suspicious about his most trusted lieutenant, along with Qrow.
"Why is that?" The possessed farm boy inquired.
"How can you tell, whiskers?" Qrow concluded, looked getting suspicious about Lionheart.
"Not sure, it happens that I felt a spike of negative emotion that came from him, sitting in his desk, when I'd felt Professor Lionheart's emotions after we left Haven Academy, he looks…afraid and…regret." Naruto explained.
"Regret, of what exactly?" The boy possessed by the headmaster had said, questions to Naruto, pushing the edge about Lionheart's regrets.
"I'm not sure about when I've felt his emotions…" Naruto reply, cannot confirm it about his abilities. "My 'Negative Emotions Sensing' ability never lie, if has to do with losing most of the experience Huntsman that according to Professor Lionheart. There is a small piece of puzzle of one of Professor Leo's emotions he had felt…"
"Meaning…?" Qrow stated push more answers about the suspicious regarding Lionheart.
"…Guilt." Naruto declares, causes Ozpin/Oscar and Qrow tensed at his answer.
"Guilt, Why is Professor Lionheart looked 'guilt' from what, Naruto?" Ruby questioned, joins the briefing, wanted to know exactly about why the headmaster of Haven Academy guilt; along with Team JNPR, Sasuke, and Yasha and Jing, regarding the conversation they had overheard.
"Can't tell, Ruby, I'm not sure about when I've felt his emotions after we left Haven Academy, he looked…afraid and…regret." Naruto said.
"Regret, of what Leo regrets for?" Qrow inquired.
"Not sure, it feels like…like I remember when the 'ever' first C-rank mission back to my world where Sasuke and I, along with Sakura and Kakashi-sensei were in…" Naruto began, causes Sasuke nod slight agreed at him for mentioned that time of theirs. "…first time went outside of the walls of the Hidden Leaf Village that we had stepped out of the gates…"
Naruto began to explain to re-tell the story about Team 7's C-rank mission, along with Sasuke had his head nod slightly for recalled that time.
"I remember the time when like it was yesterday, I notice the expression of the face of Tazuna, the old man master bridge builder before we first meet; Kakashi-sensei told me when he had seen it, he had lied to us about when the difficulty of the mission itself was A-rank, before and after we were attacked by two Chunin-rank ninjas from Mist, meaning that he didn't had enough money, along with the country's fund for hired most experience ninjas such as Jonin or an ANBU Black-ops to escorted Old Man Tazuna to Wave Country. He looked regret for not telling us, them, and/or Old Man Hokage about lying about the situation we're in; good thing that I'd call it off to continue to going Wave, if he died, his grandson, and also my friend Inari will blame any of us for his grandfather's death."
Hearing the explanation by Naruto, causes Qrow and Ozpin/Oscar hummed for how his story, with Qrow's case, according from Ruby and Yang about when he and the others (ninjas of Elemental Nations) were came from.
"So, you're saying that because of that midget had double-crossed them?" Qrow asked, referred from Gato that when he was told by Ruby about his past, along with Naruto.
"It's true…" Sasuke said joined the briefing, as he taken over Naruto's part of the explanation, confirming what the latter had said about Tazuna and the C-turns-A rank mission.
"Which that asshole midget wanted our first client Tazuna, dead; because he had led to the constructions of the bridge that connects the Land of Wave to the main land of Land of Fire to help restore its economic stability, which was against that backstabber's interests. He knew that little bastard Gato would try to kill the old man bridge builder, but couldn't afford proper protection, meaning 'us' as Genins, or rookies, being hired for our first mission under false pretence of protecting him from bandits."
"It's because of the account how cost to pay you guys with such difficulty rank of the mission, I take it?" Qrow inquired.
"That's about it, Qrow, because of the Land of Waves was poor at the moment when they don't have enough money for A-rank or higher rank, and so he made it reconsider for escorting Old Man Tazuna with C-rank…" Naruto stated, returning his position of the briefing. "Which of course that means that I had feeling that Professor Lionheart had same expression as old man does, except for guilt."
"So…you expecting Leo had sold us out about give this information to…?" Qrow says, which he wanted to confirm about Lionheart had sold them out to the enemies that knowing that about how if knowing many Huntsman were KIA and/or while in progress in the mission.
Along with Ozpin (and Oscar), along with the rest in the living room went silent about how the information what they had absorbed.
"Um…Are you sure…did Professor Lionheart had…sold us out?" Nora questioned, wasn't sure for this most confusing briefing.
"Maybe, Nora, and I had suspected that…like he DID sold us out, along with that he copied the coordinates to where your sister was when you drop the information to him." Naruto stated.
The eyes of Ozpin and Qrow widen in tensed about what Naruto had told about this suspicious about Leonardo; and knowing that he was once the member of Ozpin's group in the secret society to protect humanity from Salem and the creatures of Grimm. So far, he did mentally curse himself about how if Lionheart would had copied its coordinates.
"Yeah, I was bit…edgy." Qrow muttered, as he taps his forehead with his left hand about how careless it was; berated at himself for such idiocy for how given coordinates being copied in Lionheart's desk during the briefing.
Naruto sighed, and turns to Qrow with deadpanned on his face, along with Ozpin with the same expression as the former.
"You better, Uncle Drunker, knowing that he DID copy those coordinates." The blonde fox stated. "Hope that if call someone to had send a 'group' to intercepts a group, such as Kakashi-sensei's to be escort, if they're Huntsman or Mercenaries, then its best that knowing that they have Vivre Cards, and as much as Professor Leo didn't know about it."
"Oh, those piece of paper act as transmitter when it moves by itself, right?" Qrow stated refers that when Naruto introduce Vivre Cards, and as much as he had Ruby's piece.
Knowing that the Red-hooded scythe wielder had taken out the whole piece of hers, and Qrow had gotten Naruto's piece too, along with Yang, since Naruto had it when knowing where Yang was.
"Yup, as much as Jing taught us how to make one, knowing it's made of finger or toe nails, and I'm sure that I wanted to make yours as well. And knowing that I got spares, and I'll place a whole paper into something without suspicious about that the Vivre Card, so that we can track one any individual to where they hide." Naruto reply confirmed about Vivre Cards works, as he take out his whole piece and show it to Qrow and Ozpin.
"Same here, Professor Ozpin, Uncle Qrow. Besides, these piece of paper is completely water and fire proof, also it can't scratched, while carrying one, and also it can reflects the user's life force if someone is in trouble." Ruby explained, as she took out Naruto's piece and Yang's, as she added. "Each piece given to anyone that who closed to, such as Naruto, while I had his, that piece itself will move itself where the person was."
"Such fascinating item, to make a piece of paper that would be QUITE useful for informed the signatures of aura and track down to pinpoint the location of Huntsman/Huntress; besides the tracking Application system." Ozpin stated impressed at the Vivre Cards.
"It's cool, I was surprised at this strange things that never seen it before." Oscar said agreed at the Beacon's headmaster fascinating at Vivre Cards.
'True.' Ozpin replies at Oscar's comment for a piece of paper can do.
"But…this is only one shot for something that we need to do, according to what Professor Lionheart was talking about…" Naruto added, began to say.
"And what might be?" Ozpin asked; eyebrow rose at Naruto's statement, knowing that attempt to bug someone within the ranks of the Branwen Tribe.
"…to implant a new piece into your sister, Raven. To be sure that we'll be following her trail to know where she went… And I'm sure that you told me about her…semblance." Naruto finished, seriously.
"…" Qrow silent at his answer, which knowing that his former bandit tribe will be separate and rendezvous to find and build a new camp, and then spoke up, before lets out a sighed.
"You got a point, whiskers. Knowing we got 'one shot' of this like Leo said. And yes, it is about my sister's semblance." The scythe wielder declares.
Hearing agreement from Qrow, as much as they can't get one single mistake for going to Branwen tribe's camp, along with he knows about his sister's Semblance, which that was the best option to get to prepared to going.
"Ozzy, you said that Professor Leo isn't just behaving irrationally?" Naruto asked, receiving a nod from him. "I think he's acting very suspiciously…there's a high a chance, he could be working with Salem."
When they heard that, the eyes of the group, along with Ozpin and Qrow widen in shocked for sudden suspicious about Leonardo.
"How can it be? I mean, Professor Lionheart was brave and wise! I'd know about him…This can't be…" Pyrrha says disbelief, try to deny it, the fact that Lionheart is working with Salem; while Jaune comforts his girlfriend about Lionheart made defection.
"Are you sure?" Qrow asked, wasn't sure about Leonardo had changed sides with Salem.
"If I'm right about it in 100%, it is best that we'll find out if it's true." Naruto replied, until Jing step in.
"If that's the case, I will be sure that Lionheart will have him questioned, if Naruto confirms that he made allegiance with Salem, he did betrays humanity in the World of Remnant…knowing that I'll be sending Yasha will have her eyes on the Headmaster after this briefing, if any of Salem's agents will interaction with him." Jing said.
"I see…" Ozpin says obliged Jing's suggestion. "You'll do that, Marshal Hayabusa. It must be done."
Jing nod his head understandable, and then Ruby spoke up.
"Are you sure that Professor Lionheart works with Salem?" She says to Naruto, unsure about Lionheart's act of betrayal, then Sasuke spoke up.
"It could be, Ruby, which knowing there possibility that there is only one person that act as a spy for Orochimaru." The Uchiha stated, as Naruto's eyes widen for sudden revelation for what he refer to.
"Wait, Sasuke. Are you talking about…Kabuto!?" The blonde exclaims, sudden revelation about the certain 'genin' with glasses. "I thought much myself or anyone in our world knows about Kabuto was a spy after all.
"Yeah, unlike to Lionheart, which that he was coward, knowing that he don't deserve a position as a Headmaster of Haven." Sasuke confirmed it. "He had given information to the enemy; and knowing that he does now…"
"Let's hope that HE did, Sasuke; but get this, seems that he is a cowardly man like Shigure does that reminded of." Naruto says, which he remember the next client before Chunin exams that escorting him to Hidden Waterfalls where Fu was used to be resided.
"Yeah, I guess he does, until you had snap out his senses." Sasuke reply.
"Then its best is we'll prepare to confront Leonardo for his actions…" Ozpin declares.
"I agreed, Ozzy, and I'm sure we'll prepare as much as we know it, y'know." Naruto says.
With that briefing about Lionheart's act of defection that changing sides to allegiance to Salem; knowing that Leonardo Lionheart is cowardly lion, instead of being bravery.
"Now, we have two steps ahead of us. The first step is enlisting the aid of more Huntsmen." Ozpin concluded to declare to continue for the next course of action, with hand raised pointed in one.
"But the Mistral council-" Ren was about to objected.
"-Doesn't own every Huntsmen in the Kingdom, and I've been here enough times to know where we can find some more." Qrow interrupted about what Mistral Council.
"So long as they're trustworthy." Ozpin stated regarding most experience Huntsman were trustworthy that claimed to be.
"You can trust them to put up a good fight. I'll throw together a list tonight." Qrow informed, as he puts his foot on the table…
*Table breaks, glass shattered*
…but his Semblance causes one of the legs to break and spill his cup of tea.
"Uah!" Qrow yips.
"Good luck with that." Nora said chirped.
Qrow groans as he cleans up his mess as Naruto spoke up, about seeting the table didn't break itself.
"That's Qrow's Semblance: Misfortune, Sasuke. It is unstable ability that he is considered a 'bad luck' charm, thought that leg of the table never cause by not long ago or eaten by termites." Naruto explains to Sasuke about Qrow's unstable Semblance.
"Noted." Sasuke replied.
"After that, we can move on to step two." Ozpin added, as he steps forward.
"What's step two?" Nora asks the Beacon's Headmaster, wondering.
Suddenly, Ozpin has his cane in hand, then turns to face the group, and declares.
"Getting you four into fighting shape." He says in completely seriousness, causes Pyrrha, Naruto, and Sasuke tensed what he meant; while Jing smiles that knowing what he was talking about.
Hearing that, Jaune, Nora, Ruby, and Ren had shared their briefing looks, with Ruby was the most confused and even voiced her thoughts.
"But, uh, we already know how to fight." The red scythe wielder says, wasn't protested.
*Swooshing!*
Ozpin swiftly swings to points his cane at Ruby, which that startlingly surprised her, and he spoke up.
"You can only fight so long as you have 'Crescent Rose', but you're still lacking in hand-to-hand combat. And I know Mr. Gai had taught you just only use leg techniques rather than fist techniques. Along with I've know you taught by members of Team SABR (Saber)."
"Well, uh, yeah." Ruby replied, less embarrassment, which it is true; about how due the fact that she haven't train in hand-to-hand combat during that time that Yang had sparing with, she may be taught by Gai about using her legs than fists.
"Don't worry, Ozpin, I'll help Ruby with her training with taijutsu in fist fight, I will teach her with few of my moves." Naruto quipped, declares that being will be supervised to Ruby to improve her unarmed combat.
"Good; and I'm sure that you can handle it, Naruto." Ozpin obliged Naruto's choice for teaching Ruby.
Then Ozpin pointing to Jaune that startles him, and following.
"Mr. Arc, I'm glad to hear you've improved, while under Ms. Nikos' tutelage, but sorry to say, you've yet to unlock your Semblance."
Hearing that, causes Jaune turns his head away, which its true from Ozpin regarding his Semblance haven't unlocked some time, while Pyrrha comforts him that knowing that the time for the former's Semblance will be discovered. It's been months that no one else that his Semblance never been unlocked.
"Professor, I'll had Johnny will have Jaune under his wing, and I know that he haven't unlock his Semblance." Jing quipped, offered his best combat medic for such assistance along with his team.
"Very well, and I'm sure Dr. Raidern will continue to improved him." Ozpin obliged.
Jing nodded his head understands for such recommended that making.
"All of you still have a-ways to go before you're ready to pose any real threat against Salem and her forces…as along with Cmdr. Hayabusa, the VortexLobo Siblings, and Mr. Uchiha will assist for this regime." Ozpin continued to following his briefing.
Sasuke nod slightly that he ever wanted to help to train Ren, after all, knowing that his level maybe about Chunin Level, and so he had long way to go. He knew Zeke is skilled with a sword, three of them exactly, and Yasha will be also train Nora, along with either Jing, or Johnny.
"And though Oscar can give me temporary control, he'll need to strengthen his body and Aura." He added, pointed at Oscar's body while his cane resting his shoulder, which it's true that his level is civilian in the eyes of Naruto and Sasuke, knowing that he needed to strengthen.
"Wait, what?" Oscar exclaims, mentally, that sounds surprised.
"He'll inherit my muscle memory in time, but practice will expedite the process." Ozpin added, swiftly twirl his cane with the tip hits into the ground then both hands onto the pommel.
"But if Qrow's out looking for Huntsman, then who's going to teach us?" Ruby asked.
With a tip of Ozpin's cane, and then propels himself into the air with his cane, spinning counterclockwise into a barrel roll before landing onto the seat of the armchair, twirling his cane.
"Well, I believe I was the headmaster of Beacon Academy." Ozpin answered.
All of Team JNPR, Ruby, Naruto, and Sasuke have various looks on their face.
"…Whoa." Naruto muttered remarks at Ozpin's stunt (defied showing off).
"We have approximately one month before classes resume at Haven. If Salem were to plan to attack, if would make sense that it would occur prior to students' return. It's not 'much' time, but it's better than nothing."
Within seconds, Ozpin stops twirling his cane.
"…Just don't expect me to go easy on you." He finished with a smile seriously.
Suddenly, he glows green and white again, switching control back to Oscar.
"Huh?!" Oscar startles, has a hard time keeping his balance on the armchair before falling backwards.
*Thud!*
"Ugh…You've gotta be kidding me." Oscar groans.
Qrow, Naruto, Sasuke, Ruby, and Team JNPR look on various expressions again, while Jing shook his head while smiling at the amusing scene, along with Yasha shrugged her shoulders, shook her head, eyes closed.
After the fiasco and the briefing ended; regarding that ones who needed the training recommended by Ozpin, himself. As Jing steps in, picks up Ozpin's cane, and offers his hand to Oscar.
"Need a hand?"
"Sure, thanks." Oscar reply appreciates, accepts it, then he stood up back to his feet being pulled by Jing.
"Here!" Jing says, as he hands Ozpin's Cane to the farm boy, once again appreciates by Oscar, as he takes it.
*Door opens!*
"Hey guys, you won't believe who I just found!"
Hearing that, they gotten all their attention to door to see C. Naruto/Arashi/Kurosaki entering the room with a foxy-grinned, but as he stops when he noticed Oscar besides Jing, his expressions turns into suspicious at this young man, and seeing Ozpin's cane in his possession, followed by a familiar spike of aura/chakra came from him.
"Isn't that…?" He said with confusion, before he was pushed aside, THAT to reveal a very, very, FURIOUS Winter, steps through the door.
(AN: Just as I promise, st4tic sh0ck. This is what I was hoping for if she and Kakashi will meet again.)
"WHERE IS MY SISTER?!" She yells demanded at the group who were all very much surprised at seeing her of all people here.
Qrow was the most surprised at seeing her here of all places, yet, has the urge to get drunk again, lets out a heavily sighs irritated at this troublesome scene…
"…Great."
==At Mistral, Attha Residence==
Within silence, as much as seeing Mu wearing the Prelate Armor sitting in the couch, with his helmet unfolded, along with Murrue besides him, along with Tolle and
"So…Athrun was here?"
"Yes." Uzumi answered Mu's question.
"And he had gotten what he needs from dad?"
"Yes." He reply confirmed from Mu's another question.
"And where's Cagalli?"
"She's with him, along with her team." Uzumi answered.
"…take us with him." Mu convinced.
Uzumi sighs, as he takes out his scroll, and calling Athrun's number…
==With Athrun==
It's been days that Athrun, Cagalli and her team of Huntress came to the underground facility that being under training.
After and before Athrun obtained his father's 'Cannon', when Uzumi brought them here of what Athrun had came for, along with Cagalli, due to gotten Riza's legacy, along with the mothers of her team, which expecting having a combat suit and Flight Unit Exo-suit as well.
With Cagalli obtain a pair of swords that made by her mother and its piece of technology, which she is planning to train with it, along with her team. And Athrun haven't time to test out the 'Cannon' that his father invented.
Back to Cagalli and her team, CANL, which they were being practicing with their Flight Units, they were in the arena scale training room for testing new machines that being developed by Theodor and also Cagalli's mother Riza.
Cagalli, Asagi, Juri, and Mayura were taken time to improve their performance, which of course that they did get used to for this adaption.
Now, as seeing Athrun had watching team CAML's training progress. Which of course that would know that prepared for this up-come. So far, until then that he decides to join the training, until decide to pilot the same machines that Riza developed that being assists for this project.
And until then, which Athrun made his decision to pilot one, with his own custom Flight Unit, and so updated and registered it, which it painted his Flight Unit with Red color, so which determent that if he'll facing a aerial-type Grimm such as the Nevermore and the Lancer.
So, his Flight Unit will had his AI implanted to assists Athrun for this campaign, and also he still had his Praetor Armor on, which withstand the G-force, after all that Athrun his own vehicle that taken flight.
For now, with Athrun and Cagalli were spared with the Flight Units, as they activating their laser swords that clashes together, which gain both mobility and which how their skills were quite superiority.
"Let's see if this will gain so overdrive!" Athrun declared.
"Hmph, with pleasure." Cagalli replied.
The three girls in the observation deck, were awe at how those two fast and how they had spar, seeing beams of light clashed in the arena in the air, as the two machines of red and yellow soared through the skies at speed so incredible, they are nothing but flashes and blues to the naked eye.
They fought at speeds that clocked at more than 1000kph.
Athrun's Flight Unit had the pair of thrusters at the read, stabilizing itself before charging once more with its laser blade at the front. He grinned as their blades clashed once more.
"So, I got a hand it to you, it surely its been a while when we spar with wooden sticks back in the Sunnyvale." He says to Cagalli; he swung his blade, only for his female opponent to stafe to its left and dodged it.
"Like hell if I beat you because you called me a 'girly boy'." She reply, snorted; with her laser blade is in front in standby.
"That's true, and you give me a fair fight!" The redhead stated, with his laser blade is ready for the next strike.

But, with Jing D. Hayabusa decide to remain for some urgent discuss with Ozpin, when he reported from Zeke about Oscar, and so he is making a sudden interact.
"Oscar…" Jing called out to the farm boy, that gotten the young man turns to him. "As much as Ozpin's soul is bound within you, and I would like to tell him that I will be departing to Atlas for keeping James' bargain."
"Oscar, I'll take it from here, temporary." Ozpin telling Oscar, as the flash of green and white aura shines engulf the latter's body, and then his glowing eyes opened again, like the last time for sudden discussion, and spoke up.
"Once again, Ozpin, it's good to see you."
"Likewise, Marshal. So, what kind of bargain you attempt for James' when you're planning to departs to Atlas?" Ozpin reply and questioned.
"Well…with Atlas is now closing the borders and the Dust embargo is being announced, and also decide make a deal with him for provide extra defenses for upcoming invasion like Beacon." Jing replies shrugged.
Ozpin humming at such what Jing is saying, looked wasn't expecting at Jing's such decision, and he spoke up.
"And I am assuming that you're intention to provide Atlas if it's either Mobile Suits or other kinds of arsenals and technology possess."
"Try former, just less few, instead of Mass-produce, but a G-class." Jing answered.
"Oh, I see…and what kind of an exchange for Mobile Suits to, Mr. Hayabusa?" Ozpin inquired.
"Well…let's just say, a certain Ice Queen will remain in this Kingdom." Jing answered.
"So, it's Ms. Schnee's older sister, Winter, and James' best specialist…" Ozpin comment, guessed the answer.
"Yup, being part of the bargain, so he CANNOT break the promise. Knowing James wanted to protect the Kingdom of Atlas, after all." Jing stated.
"True, he is quite paranoid, if that's the case, not just Atlas, but the world of Remnant too." Ozpin stated.
"That's true, knowing he would had trust me about sudden events if Atlas gain our trust when they had broken it, and if he would had bring his 'army' to Vale in the first place, but a 'mechanical soldiers'." Jing stated.
"The army is symbolized conflict, which because James would have least when he tried to listen to me for some reason." Ozpin replies.
"Well…I better go now, Ozpin, and I'll keep you update without telling about you were in Oscar." Jing says, as with the discussion has ended, and went to the front door, and then turns to Ozpin once again. "…Well, sayonara, Ozpin, we'll see each other at third day, while Oscar had overheard our conversation, and tell the others that I will be return, and resume their training!"
"I'll inform the others for your sudden departure." The headmaster informed.
With that, Jing had walk out in the screen, after receives a nod reply, hearing his footsteps, while Ozpin in Oscar's body watches him depart…
*Door opens…*
Hearing the door opens by Jing, followed by hearing he steps went through out the door, and then…

The screen turns black, when the door closes…
==Outside of the Guest House==
With Jing is outside and went to the patio where he walks down into the hill that happens to be a clearing that serves as training ground in the guest house, with steel fences.
*Codec ringtone!*
Hearing the ringtone into his inner-ear, Jing places his index and middle finger into the side of his right neck, and respond.
"Yeah…Oh, 14 units are now loaded in the ship…? Good, good! That's good to hear, and I'll rendezvous to Atlas Academy. Once there, I'll mark it, and prep the warp jump to my coordinates…Good, you're standing by…? I see, signing off."

==Omake – The Missing/Escape Schnee==
The next morning; one of the guards who in charge keep an eye on Weiss, last night; holding a tray of large plain breed and small cup of water, which it's her breakfast, today.
"All right, girly, its breakfast time, so wake up."
Seeing Weiss sleeping in the cage, no responding, causes him frown, as he opens the cage and went to kick her forcedly to wake up.
"I said WAKE UP!"
He kicked 'Weiss' hardly that rolled forward, causes his eyes widen and drops the tray, at the sight of the prisoner.
"She's…SHE'S ESCAPE! SHE'S ESCAPE!" The bandit yells alarm the others.
Hearing the shout of the commotion, Raven quickly steps out into her tent with her sheathed katana, just before one of the guards calls out about Weiss' captive.
As the rest of the bandits were gathered and went to where their 'price' is, as Raven went to the guard and demand, before notice 'Weiss' is still in the cage.
"What happen? What did you mean she's escape?" She questions.
"See it for yourself, ma'am! Look closer." He reply pointed at where she is held.
As Raven and the rest turns where he points at, seeing 'Weiss' who being captive in the cage happens to be a dummy version of herself with a 'Xp' face on it, with a letter written in the forehead and says: 'YOU MISS ME!'.
"A dummy?! But, how did she manage to escape?" Ravan says disbelief at Weiss' escapade act of escape that night, as she turns to the idiot bandits with a cold glare that causes them to flinched at her face.
"What happen?"
"I don't know, ma'am, I don't know how the Schnee managed to escape?" The same bandit responded.
"I think she must've waited her opportunity to escape. So don't blame us, ma'am." The other bandit stated and protested.
Raven frowns at those bandit guards who look after the Schnee, somehow that she is escape last night, while the others was asleep.
"If it's so, then I won't punish you for today." Raven says to pardon those two. "Anyway, I believe someone had taught her infiltration, if I see one."
Hearing Raven's guessed the theory about Weiss' skills in stealth.
"And I was wondering where she had gotten that dummy from? Whoever taught her that, must've been a skilled assassin to teach her." She added.
Which confirms the scene about Weiss' escape; and with Raven turns to the same bandit guards.
"Did you check everything in the Schnee?"
"Nothing, ma'am, just only her weapon and a flask, I was wondering if what's inside of it, and I was hoping that she's drinking like that 'traitor'." The bandit with a cloth eyepatch stated, the last word in cold tone that mentions Qrow.
Until Vernal steps out the tent, and looked very furious about something that took it from last night. She overheard the situation about Weiss' escapade.
"Not to mention she had retaken her weapon back, too! How can it be? Damn that bitch! She will pay for humiliating us!" Vernal added exclaiming; cursed and complained about that weapon she admires.
Once seeing Vernal's face, few of the bandits saw her face, causes to surpass their laughter, causes the former looked confused.
"What?" She says confused, questions at the few bandits suppress the laughter. "What's so funny?"
"…Vernal, um, look at yourself in the mirror." Raven says deadpanned.
Vernal looked confuse, as one of the female bandits handed her a mirror while suppressed the chuckled with her hand.
Once Vernal looks at herself in the mirror, causes her eyes widen at the look at herself.
Seeing herself in Vernal's reflection, her hair is dyed with green (like Oobleck), looked spiky, and also her face is covered with drawing: a mustache, a round glasses (also Oobleck), and a pair of swirls on each cheek.
Which happens to be that Vernal was being prank by…Weiss, herself.
'Not just she retrieve weapon, but also put a prank on Vernal that night…She looked like Oobleck if she's like a cousin or niece, or something.' Raven says in thought, without let amuses get over to her.
Causes Vernal seething in rage in embarrassment and humiliation and takes a deep breath and…
"DAMN THAT DAUGHTER OF A BASTARD!"
==With Weiss==
Hearing Vernal's screech, causes Weiss looked gleeful at she had escape her captive in the bandits' cage. Until she heard it in the distance, faintly, causes her to chuckle amusing at her work.
"Guess thanks to the tips of Naruto's prank habits. He surely had taught me a little with an advice." Weiss stated.
With Weiss glance at where the bandit camp is, and she took out Ruby's Vivre Card, since she had gotten her team's pieces of it, so that if any of them is been stay if either Mistral or any location.
"Well, guess if it's where Ruby is, then its best bet that she and the others arriving Mistral, right now… Hope that there's a nearby town that would like to have a Bullhead in quickest way." Weiss says, as he space the piece into her pocket and turns to that direction, once again.
"And you all have forgotten about I've ALWAYS escape from my pursuers before, while after my performance, and once again for Naruto's teachings about stealth besides Kakashi-sensei is being paid off." She added.
And so, with Weiss skipped walk towards to where she is going that nowhere else what path she is taken if she'll found a settlement.
Then lets out a humming tone of 'Mirror Mirror (Ice Queen Remix in RWBY Chibi)', while skipping walks away.
==Omake Ended==
The twentieth chapter of new season of The Shinobi team of Remnant: SSGN - Hurricane Rose Chronicles. But THIS is Volume 5 on this story…
This is now chapter 21st of episode 3 of Season 5. Sorry for taken too long since then, busy working on my wiki and also Gundam decisions for selecting my own character versions to pilot it.
I was bit obsessed IBOs besides SEED, along with 00 and UC. And I'm sure that I better getting things quite complicated that I wasn't bother to watch the full episodes of CROSS ANGE.
Anyway, I was bit interests to have those mobile suits for them. And so far that once I'm prepared to deployed. Not to mention Muv-Luv that is my likings in the most…
~~~M~~~
Now, onto this preview about this newest chapter: I did made my own version of the press conference version of this canon. Which having Gaara had build his own office building besides in the top of the hills where the Belladonna home were.
Telling the people about Adam Taurus' motives, and also somehow that until that Ilia tried to burst out the bubble for everything is lie? *Scuffed* Wha a whining girl, if Ilia would had told the people about her parents in the mining operations in Atlas.
Anyway, just you may know that I give them solid proof about the true colors of the White Fang, so far that seeing that the White Fang wasn't the pacifist group anymore.
So, joining Blake along with Gaara, along with the Faunus Freedom Fighters to resists the White Fang, just like the Fanon fraction, the Black Fang. You may know about it, already, and the symbol for Blake's own fraction will be supposed to have a tail of Shukaku.
~~~M~~~
Anyway, with Weiss is being captive by bandits, and so far that she did mocked Vernal and the Branwen Tribe. And I'm sure that my own version where according about Ironwood's forces were called in, minus Winter and her unit.
Just as I promise, she will remain in Mistral as much as we know it…
~~~M~~~
With Ozpin explains to the heroes/heroines about his past, his failures, and everything in the past. So far that regarding to secured the Relic of Knowledge why temporary controlled Oscar's body.
Now that with the Beacon's Headmaster will declare to strengthen up their skills with Team DYZR and Naruto and Sasuke will assists them.
Well, you could say that for sure that when I make this version for my own. And I'm sure that they will be prepared in no time…
About Jaune's semblance? Well, still decide to take about a new year or upcoming new volume until now…
~~~M~~~
Now, onto the next subject, Athrun had decide to pilot a Flight Unit, just the Gundam SEED version of Athrun had his mobile suits always red when compare to Char Aznable, the Red Comet.
So far, this is just a short paragram line for this story, and I'm sure that I'm prepared for anything as possible.
~~~M~~~
Anyway, I'm starting prepared for the next chapter until then once I'll take a break until now…for at least…
~~~M~~~

(2). That came from Chapter 78 of Shinobi Team of Remnant: SSGN (Signal), the prequel story.
The man who killed Christ's father was Tatarin, the Russian General from Freedom Fighters, like his brother Troy. I still haven't continued watching the gameplay of Freedom Fighters for some time. As much as I did to skip it or I did watch it.
(3). Just like Infinite Stratos, guess that Riza surely that just like Tabane after all. And there will be more surprises at the moment about the Flight Unit in NieR.
So, its standby state is a bracelet after all.

(W1). Asher's new weapon in this story, the double-barreled rifle, instead of 'shotgun'.
These shotgun-adapts-rifle similarly like in Tremors 2: Aftershock that Burt brings a couple of Westley Richards 480 double-rifle elephant guns chambered in .375 H&H Mag down to Mexico for Earl and Grady to use (with a warning to "hold 'em good and tight to your shoulder, or they'll break your collarbone") as an effective backup weapon against Graboids, which they both use on multiple occasions to dispatch Shriekers with devastating results. (Note Burt demonstrates his firearms handling proficiency by ensuring the chamber is empty before he hands the gun to Earl.)
Not to mention that this kind of rifle shots in long-shot that just like Quatermain wields a double-barreled exposed hammer "Express Rifle". He did shot the henchman in long distance with great accurate the way he is skilled with a rifle.
