Well guy's it's time for some more RWBY Dragoon's.
I'm a little sorry this took a bit longer than I had hoped, but this is a new arc of the story and I had no idea how to actually get into this arc so... Yeah.
On with the Chapter
[[]]
[No P.O.V.]
In the middle of a deep green forest, a small group of Combat academy student's were following a teacher through the forest.
"Alright students, listen up." The teacher said as he turned around to face the students, "As part of your wilderness survival class you will need, for this small test, to locate and collect three different samples of medicinal herbs. These herbs can be used to treat injuries, poison, whatever you may find, your job is to simple locate it."
"Shouldn't be a problem teach." One students said, as the 16 split off into groups of four.
"I certainly hope not." The teacher said turning around, only to black out when he was struck in the face by an iron mace.

From the tree's a silver haired figure watched as one by one the student's were taken out by people using maces with extra length poles.
"What the hell?" Sylpha asked watching this happen, then she saw what one of the attackers were wearing, "A Hellena Wardens uniform? I thought Hellena Prison was abandoned?"
Sylpha watched as the Hellena Wardens picked up an carried off the teacher and students, then quietly extended her wings to follow them.
[]
When the treeline faded Sylpha had to hide below the cliff as she followed the wardens on the road that took them to the edge of the continent, looking over Sylpha's eye's widened at what she saw.
On it's own little island was a tall, leaning tower that overlooked the sea, this tower wasn't directly built, but carved from the tall leaning rock that had been on the island. But what had Sylpha worried was the fact that the place was very well lit up from the lights coming from inside the prison.
Sylpha continued to follow the wardens until she reach a small jutting of rock that had a drawbridge down, and standing on the drawbridge was the single fattest man she ever saw.
The man was already pretty tall, but instead of the muscle making him look intimidating it was the fatness of his gut, and the giant metal club he was holding on his shoulder wasn't helping, she could see he was wearing red pants of some sort and had on metal boots, she could also see a single leather belt going across his chest and gut, he had on a pair of golden shoulder pads with a massive blue cape and he wore a golden helmet with a pair long horns in the head, though the helmet completely revealed his head.
"Did you get them?" The large man asked.
"Yes sir Head Warden Jasper, we-" A warden carrying noone started, only to be picked up by the neck by the large man.
"I thought I said my name was Fruegel!" The large man shouted, "I've told you people dozens of times! I am not Jasper, I am Head Warden Fruegel!"
With that the man calling himself Fruegel threw the man he was holding off the cliff, past me and into the water.
'The hell, this guy's about as ruthless as the Fruegel of Dart's era.' I thought.
"Now then, let's lock these kids up so I can send out a ransom." Fruegel said marching inside with the rest of the wardens.
After the drawbridge went up I breathed a sigh of relief that I wasn't caught, "I gotta get to Professor Ozpin." I said flying off.
[Ruby's P.O.V.]
"Dorm sweet dorm." Yang said falling on her bed as we stepped back into our dorm room.
"Yes Yang, it's good to be back home." Weiss said setting Regole in a medium sized fish tank that Ozpin installed for the sea dragon, "Well, not my actual home, this place is better really."
"I wouldn't blame you on that." Blake said as Michael flew off Blake's shoulder and onto the dresser and snuggled in.
"Yep." Weiss said, "And now we just need to study for exams, train for the festival, and we won't have to worry about missions for-"
And then the speakers turned on, "Will Teams RWBY and JNPR please come to Professor Ozpin's office." Glynda said over the speakers.
"Oh come on!" Weiss cried out.
I set Feyrbrand on the ground and let him and Zwei run around, "Alright team, I know we just got back from vacation and all, but we better go see professor Ozpin ASAP." I said.

Our two teams met up in the elevator and when we stepped out into Ozpin's office and saw that not only Glynda and Ozpin waiting for us, But so were uncle Qrow and Sylpha.
"Ah, you're here, that's good." Ozpin said standing up, "There have been a couple of things that have come to our attention as of this moment."
"Neither of them good." Qrow said, inching away from Sylpha.
"Team JNPR." Glynda said, "You're going to be taking on one of these missions."
"Yes ma'am." Jaune said standing straight.
"There has been some complications in the Vale security network, more specifically with a few of the devices set in the Emerald Forest area." Glynda said, "You're mission is to restore them to working order."
"But... I don't think any of us know how to restore one of those things." Jaune said scratching his head, "Do you guys?"
Pyrrha, Nora and Ren all shook their heads.
"Don't worry, if the device isn't destroyed, just tampered with, I'll send you some schematic's on your scroll to fix the damage." Glynda said.
"Phew, that's good." Jaune said.
"Now then, Team RWBY." Ozpin said, getting my attention and my teams, "While you were on your vacation, Sylpha here learned about something... unpleasant."
Sylpha looked up at us, "While I was wondering around I found myself in a rather nice forest where there was a class of combat school students that were doing an outdoor survival studies class." Sylpha explained, "Almost immediately they were attacked by some men, and after following them I learned that they were 'Wardens' from the abandoned Hellena Prison."
"What!?" Weiss and I shouted in perfect synch.
"Yeah. Currently the Head Warden, a man who's calling himself Fruegel, after the prisons last Head Warden before it was abandoned millennia ago, he's planning to hold the student's for ransom." Sylpha said.
"As such, your mission is to go with Qrow and Sylpha to free those students, and either bring this Fruegel in." Ozpin said, then he looked to Qrow.
"Or let me or Sylpha take care of him." Qrow said.
I was silent for a minute, "Alright, let's go save those students." I said with determination.
Uncle Qrow smiled, "Good, I've asked Tai to watch over the dragons and Zwei for you so you won't need to worry about them, heck even Winter's trying to help with Regole."
Sylpha then extended her wings, "Alright, let's get going ASAP."
