26. Field Trip

Hello all and welcome back to another chapter! Now before we begin, there are a few things I need to get off my chest.

The first thing, I am really behind at my other stories. And because of college, I am not only focus on my classes, but I only focused on this story and my other story, Kingdom Heart III: Armageddon. So, as of right now, my other stories, Disney University and Bioshock Infinite: Fallout, will be on hold until I find motivation to write them again. Sorry if you favored those stories.

Second, Season 3! OH MY GOD! SO MUCH FEELS! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT (spoilers if no one saw the last episode) THEY CUT OFF YANG'S ARM AND KILLED OFF PYRRHA! WHY?! I AM SO THANKFUL I AM STICKING TO MY ORIGINAL STORYLINE AND NOT FOLLOWING THE SERIES! I KNOW I AM MAKING CHANGES FOR THOSE TO BE OKAY!

Thirdly, I have updated things before episodes of Season 3 were being updated and there were a few things that caught my attention. In episode 3 It's a Brawl in the Family, Mercury gave us a brief mention that his father was a drinker. And in my story, I wrote off that Mercury's dad was an alcoholic! Please not I published that chapter WAY before the episode came out! Also, the last episode where Pyrrha fought against Cinder and died while wrote Cinder's trailer where she FOUGHT against Pyrrha and Pyrrha lost! And lastly, the Dragon Grimm! Even though my version is different from the series one, I swear to god, if Rooster Teeth names it The Chaos Bringer, I will totally flip!

Fourth, I know at the end of Episode 12, they gave us the villain Salem (who people believe it's her name), who believe is the Mother of the Grimm. Please note, and thank god, I will NOT include Salem. I have something else in mind.

Lastly, I will not, I repeat, I will NOT mention or include Fallout 4! I know that the game it out and I saw the gameplay. But please note that game happened 10 years AFTER Fallout 3 whereas the timeline between The Lone Dragonborn and RWBY: Enter the Lone Dragonborn is close to around 80 YEARS! So I will not include Fallout 4!

Hope that clears somethings us. Anyways, let us continue! And a little spoiler alert, there will be a guest appearance towards the end of the chapter!

Chapter 21

Inside Ozpin's office, Ironwood was pacing back and forth while Ozpin was sitting behind his desk and Glynda was standing next to him. As Ironwood was pacing, he said "They were here…Ozpin, they were here!"

Rolling her eyes in frustration, Glynda said "We are very much aware of that. Thank you, James."

"Fantastic, you're aware," Ironwood said in a sarcastic tone, "Now are we going to do something about it or should we just stay the course and continue to ignore what's right in front of us?"

As the two of them continue to argue, Ozpin heard his computer beeping before he stood up and said "Come in."

Just then, the elevator doors opened and Ruby and Cinder walked out of it. As the two of them were in front of the professors, Cinder said "Sorry we are late, professors. Someone accidentally hit all the buttons on the way up here."

Ruby gave out a nervous smile and said "It wasn't me."

As Cinder silently laughed at Ruby, Ozpin said "Thank you for coming, you two. How are you both feeling?"

"Okay, I guess," Ruby said.

"We'd feel better if we caught that Bat Faunus," Cinder said as she rubs her ears, "My ears are still hurting."

Ironwood walked up to them and said "Ms. Rose, Ms. Fall, I feel it's appropriate to let you two know that I think what you did last night is exactly what being a huntress is all about. You recognized a threat, you took action and you did the very best you could."

As both Ruby and Cinder thanked him for the compliment, Ozpin said "Now, the general here has already informed us of the events that transpired last night. But now that you two rested we were wondering if you had anything to add."

Glynda then asked "Was there anyone else with him? Did he look familiar to you two at all?"

Nervous a bit, Ruby said "I…I don't know. He started to freak out when he saw us."

"I have never seen him before," Cinder said, "And like Ruby said, he was scared of us."

The professors all thought about it and Glynda said "A Bat Faunus…I have never heard such a thing. And why was he looking for?"

Ironwood then said "Probably something important if they were willing to knock out my soldiers."

Knowing the Bat Fauns might be involved with the White Fang, Ruby asked "Wait…you think this Faunus is connected to Torchwick and the White Fang?"

"It's possible," Ozpin replied, "But we still lack the required evidence to link the two together."

Wanting to inform them, Ruby said "Actually, I-I think I remember him saying something about a hideout or something in the Southeast. Just outside the kingdom."

As the professors, except for Ozpin who was smiling, looked at her in confusion, Cinder looks at her and thought "Why did she say that? The Faunus never said anything…unless she wants to inform them of that. Clever girl."

"But wait," Glynda said, "I thought you said he was only scared of…"

Cinder then said "Come to think of it, when he was screaming, he did say that while he was flying for his life."

"Thank you, Ms. Rose and Ms. Fall for your cooperation," Ozpin said, "Why don't you two go and spend some time with your teams? You have a big day ahead of you."

As Ruby nodded, Cinder said "Professor, I would like to make a request for my team's field trip."

Curious, Ozpin asked "And what request will that be?"

Cinder replied "Well, it regards to the mission you have given my team. My team discovered a…certain situation that involves in that ruin town Team CVFY was in. And we believe it might be connected to our mission. With your permission, we would like to go and investigate that town for clues."

Knowing what mission Cinder was talking about, Ozpin nodded and said "Very well, your request has been granted. I will speak with one of the professors to accompany your team."

"Thank you, professor," Cinder said, "We will head back to our teams."

As Ruby and Cinder were heading to the elevator, Ozpin said "And Ms. Fall and Ms. Rose."

When the two of them looked back, Ozpin said "Please try and be…discreet about this matter."

Once the two of them nodded, both Ruby and Cinder entered the elevator and headed to their rooms. After minutes of walking, Ruby and Cinder arrived at Team RWBY's room. When Ruby opened the door, Yang, Weiss, Blake, Mercury, Emerald and Blackheart were in the room waiting for them. The moment Ruby opens the door, everyone rushed to them and Yang asked "What happened?!"

Emerald then asked "Yeah, what happened?!"

Once Ruby and Cinder entered the room and explained what happened, Weiss said "That was a risky move."

However, Blake said "No, I think you handled it well."

"I hope so," Ruby said sadly.

Yang placed a hand on her shoulder and said "I'm sure everything will be alright, Ruby."

With Blackheart, Mercury and Emerald, Cinder said to them "So I have spoken to Ozpin and we have cleared to go to Sanctuary for our field trip."

"Great," Blackheart said, "Now all we need is to know is what Huntsmen will come with us."

Just then, Yang said "Oh, I know what will cheer you up."

When she walked up to a table and picked up a mail tube, everyone looks at her and Ruby asked "What's that?"

Yang replied "I don't know yet. Dad sent it to us, I thought we could open it together."

Ruby squealed and said "Oh! Something from home!"

Using her speed Sembalance, Ruby rushed towards Yang and was reaching for the mail tube. Curious, Emerald looks at Blackheart and asked "What's in the tube?"

Blackheart replied "Knowing my dad, it could be anything."

Just then, the bottom end of the tube opened and a cylinder object fell to the ground. When everyone looked down, they saw it was covered in black fur. Before anyone could pick it up, the object started to move on it's own. After a few seconds, the object 'popped' and turned into a small black/white corgi. After the little dog barked, Ruby and Yang jumped in joy, Weiss, Emerald and Mercury started in shock, Cinder stood there with her eyes widen, Blake leaps back in fear and Blackheart face-palmed. In joy, Ruby cheered "Zwei!"

As Ruby picked up Zwei and the dog started to lick her face, Blake cried "He sent a dog?!"

"In the mail?!" Weiss yelled in shock.

"How is that possible to fit that dog in a small mail tube?!" Emerald shouted.

As Ruby giggled at Zwei's licks, Yang said "Oh he does stuff like this all the time."

In a flash, Blake was on the top bunk bed and asked "Your father or your dog?"

As Weiss leans in at Zwei, she said "Are you telling me that this mangy, drooling mutt…"

When Zwei looked at Weiss with his puppy eyes, Weiss then said in a sweet tone "Is going to wive with us forevah? Oh yes he is yes he is! Oh isn't he adorable!"

As Weiss was petting Zwei, up on the bunk bed, Blake said "Please keep it away from my stuff."

As Zwei jumped out of Ruby's arms, the dog rushed towards Cinder and the others and stood on his hind legs as if he wants to be picked up. Seeing this, Cinder gently picked Zwei up and said in a sweet tone "Aww, aren't you sweet."

Zwei barked happily as he licked Cinder's face. While Cinder giggled, Emerald reached in, petted Zwei and said "Isn't he adorable! I wished we had a dog!"

Blackheart looks at Emerald and asked "Why didn't you get one?"

Emerald motions her thumb at Mercury and said "We got him instead."

"Hey!" Mercury protested.

Just then, Glynda's voice said through the speakers "Will all first year students please report to the amphitheater?"

After the announcement, Zwei jumped out of Cinder's arms and rushed towards where Blake was and was standing on his hind legs as if asking Blake to pick him up. But Blake refused Zwei as she silently hissed at him. Worried about Zwei, Weiss said "Well we can't leave him for a week."

Seeing a letter inside the tube, Yang takes it out and said "Look, there is a letter here. 'Dear girls and son, I've got to leave the island for a few days. So I'm sending Zwei to you to take care of. Enclosed is all the food you should need. Love you all, Taiyang'."

When Zwei gave up on Blake, he rushed up to Yang and stood next to her as she turned the tube upside down and over a dozen of canned dog food came out of the small tube and onto Zwei. As the dog popped his head out, Emerald raised an eyebrow and asked "How the hell did your dad manage to fit all that in that tiny tube?"

Weiss then asked "And how is he supposed to eat all that?"

Once Yang shook the tube a bit, a can opener came out of the tube and landed near Zwei. As Yang threw the tube and letter away, she said "Well that settles it. Come on, everyone, Zwei will be here when we get back."

After Yang said that, everyone started to follow her to the amphitheater except for Ruby. Once everyone arrived at the amphitheater, Blackheart looks over and saw Ruby barely making it and was carrying a backpack. Along with Team RWBY and JCME, there was also Team AVGR and JNPR there with them. As Ruby placed her backpack near the others, on the stage, Glynda said "Quiet, Quiet please. Professor Ozpin would like to share a few words before we begin."

As Glynda stepped aside, Ozpin took the stage and said "Today we stand together, united: Mistral, Atlas, Vacuo, Vale. The four kingdoms of Remnant. On this day nearly eighty years ago, the largest war in recorded history came to an end. It was a war of ignorance, of greed and of oppression. A war that was about much more than where borders fell or who traded with whom. But about the very idea of individualism itself. We fought for countless reasons, one of which being the destruction of all forms of art and self-expression. As you all are well aware that was something many could not stand for. As a result, those who opposed this tyranny began naming their children after one of the core aspects of art itself. Color. It was their way to demonstrate that not only would they refuse to tolerate this oppression, but neither would the generation to come. And it was a trend that is held to this very day. We encourage individuality, expressionism, and unity though diversity. As I have said, today we stand together, united. But this bond cannot exist without effort. Which is why today while the rest of the world celebrates peace, Huntsmen and Huntresses will work to uphold it. As first year students, you will be tasked with shadowing a professional huntsmen or huntress, on a mission. Some of you may be taken out of the kingdom for several days. Others may work within the walls for the rest of the week. But no matter which path you choose, remember to be safe, remember your training, and remember to do your very best."

After his speech, every student started to walk up to the hologram boards and started selecting a mission for their team. As Team RWBY went to go pick a mission, Arthur turns to the others and asked "So…what missions you guys plan on taking?"

"We don't know," Jaune said, "But let's go and pick one out."

As Jaune as his team went to pick their mission, Blackheart said "My team already selected a mission. We are to search some ruined town far north."

"Lame," Grif said, "Come on, let's hope we get a mission in the city. Somewhere close to that pizza place."

When Team AVGR left, Cinder looks at her teammates and asked "So…where to now?"

Emerald replied "Don't know."

Just then, Team RWBY walked up to them along with Ozpin. When the headmaster saw Team JCME, he said "Ah, there you are. I am here to tell you that your instructor is waiting for you at the loading pad."

"Thanks, professor," Blackheart said, "We'll head on ahead."

As Ozpin nodded, he walked away, leaving Team JCME and RWBY behind. When Ozpin was gone, Team JCME and RWBY made their way to the loading pads. But when they got there, they all gave off deadpan and disappointed looks. Before them was Professor Oobleck and Professor Port standing there, waiting for them.

Breaking the silence, Weiss looks over everyone and asked "So…who is getting who?"

Just then, Oobleck said "Team RWBY! Which one of you is ready to fight for their lives?!"

"Oh no," Mercury said, "That means we got Port."

"Great," Emerald whined, "This trip will be nothing more but story telling."

Walking up to Team JCME, Professor Port said "Ah! If it isn't Team JCME! Professor Ozpin told me about your mission and if we want to still have light at our side, we need to get going!"

"Yes!" Oobleck said, "Come Team RWBY, come with me and I will briefly explain our mission!"

Once Oobleck stopped talking, he zipped towards a nearby Bullhead. After Oobleck was gone, Blackheart turns to Ruby and Yang and said "Be careful, you two. And always look after each other."

As Ruby and Yang nodded, the three siblings hugged each other before heading to their own Bullheads and headed off to their destination.

"…and then I manage to slay that old Beowulf with nothing more than my bare hands," Professor Port said as he finished telling his story.

It was almost three hours since Professor Port and Team JCME left Beacon and was making their way to the ruin town of Sanctuary. While sitting away from Professor Port, Emerald places her hands over her ears and quietly said "Please god, I beg of you, make him stop."

Mercury wrapped his arm around her and said "No help is coming to us, babe."

Cinder then looked at Professor Port and asked "Professor, what exactly did Ozpin say to you about our mission?"

Professor Port replied "Well, Ozpin has informed me of your 'other' mission that involves the security of the Vytal Festival. But of all places why to this ruined town?"

As Team JCME all looked at each other, they all nodded and Cinder said "You see professor, after my fight against the Bat Faunus, there was a message on one of the screens. It said 'Remember Sanctuary'."

Emerald then said "And the ruined town that Team CVFY was in was called Sanctuary. I know it because I saw a burned down sign with Sanctuary on it."

"Hmm," Professor Port said, "And you think whoever is behind this is connected to this town?"

"It has to be," Blackheart said, "It's the only lead we have at the moment. I just hope we find what we are looking for."

After a few more minutes, the Bullhead arrived at the ruin city and hovered above the town. Once the doors opened, Team JCME and Professor Port jumped out of it and landed on the ground. As soon as they were off, the Bullhead took off. When the Bullhead was gone, Professor Port said "The pilot took the Bullhead somewhere safe in case we need to leave. Now then, young hunters, what's next?"

Blackheart looks around and said "I don't see any Grimm activity, so we are safe for now."

He then looks at Mercury and said "Merc, I want you to use your teleportation to teleport above the town and take pictures with your Scroll. I want a detail map of it."

When he said that, Mercury took out his Scroll and said "You got it."

As Mercury teleported into thin air, Blackheart turns to Cinder and Emerald and said "Cinder, since you can sense the Dust remains, I want you to look around the town with Emerald and mark the location down once Mercury is done. After you guys finish, I want you to look into every building and find clues."

Confused, Emerald asked "Clues to what?"

"Anything," Blackheart said, "Even if something is out of place, I want to know."

As both Cinder and Emerald nodded, Mercury teleported back and said "Got it."

"Good," Blackheart said, "I want you to give those pictures to Cinder, and once you do that, you and Port will not only look around for clues, but look out for any Grimm. That way we know so that we can be prepared."

As Professor Port nodded, Mercury gave him a death glare that said 'I hate you'. Cinder then looks at Blackheart and asked "And what are you going to do?"

Blackheart replied "I am going to the Town Hall and find records of people who use to live here. Maybe we'll find someone that connects to the third party."

"Like the Bat Faunus," Emerald said.

"Exactly," Blackheart said, "Okay guys, let's split up and be careful. We will meet back here in two hours."

When they all agreed, they all headed their different ways with their weapons at hand. Carrying his Daedric Rifle, Blackheart was making his way to the Town Hall. From his past experience living in the Capital Wasteland and Skyrim, it is to look through everything, including records. If this Bat Faunus placed the message about Sanctuary, then he would know what happen to this place. And if Blackheart found a file about him, then he would know who he is dealing with. But that made Blackheart more suspicious. From what Cinder and Ruby told him, the Bat Faunus was scare out of his mind, like he didn't want to be there. Which brought another thought into Blackheart's mind: the Bat Faunus was sent there to deliver that message. But who?

Once Blackheart reached the Town Hall, he quietly opens the door and proceeded into the building. Even though the town was deserted a long time ago, Blackheart knew that there was always danger lurking around the corner. Walking through the silence halls of the building, Blackheart began checking every room to find some records of the town. After spending almost 30 minutes, Blackheart arrived at the basement and found files and files of records. Opening one of the files, Blackheart skimmed through them, but it was already tiring after looking through files. Looking at the table in the far end with a computer, Blackheart sat down and turned on the computer. When the screen turned on, Blackheart began to look through the files on the computer. Once he found the records, he saw over 1,000 records of the people who use to live here. Sighing in frustration, Blackheart decided to download the records into his Dragon Gauntlet and look over them in time. As he connected the computer to his Dragon Gauntlet, he began downloading the records. While that happened, Blackheart's acute hearing picked up some movement upstairs. Since Cinder, Emerald, Mercury and Professor Port were outside, someone, or something was inside the building with him. After downloading the records, Blackheart unplugged the connection, held his Daedric Rifle and made his way upstairs.

Once he made it upstairs, Blackheart quickly looks around and saw nothing. Creeping through the dark hallways, Blackheart was seeing no one until he whispered "LAAS YAH NIR!"

Using his Aura Whisper Shout, Blackheart saw no traces of Aura within the building. Before he was going to turn around, he felt the tip of a blade near the back of his neck and heard a woman's voice saying "Don't move or I'll slice my blade through your neck."

Blackheart chuckled and said "Like you can make do it in time."

He then shouted "FEIM!"

Using a single word from his Become Ethereal Shout to turn his body ghost-like, Blackheart kneels down, turns around and shot a blast at the mysterious woman. Acting fast, the woman leaps back and used her red-bladed katana sword to slice through Blackheart's blast in half and the blasts exploded on the wall behind her. When Blackheart's body became whole, he now saw the woman before him: the woman had long wild black hair that reach to her lower back, red eyes that showed through a Grimm mask she was wearing, a black/red samurai outfit that was fitted to her body and a long red-bladed katana sword with a large barreled scabbard in her left hand.

Recovering from Blackheart's attack, the woman charged at him while he switched his weapon to his Daedric Sword and started blocking the woman's attack. As the woman swings her sword horizontally across Blackheart's head, he moves his head to dodge it and swings his sword at her, but the woman quickly moves out of the way. When the woman sheaths her sword, the chambers in her giant scabbard started to spin until they stopped.

As Blackheart stood his ground, the woman pulls out her sword, revealing the blade to be yellow, swings it at him and released lightning bolts at him. Focusing his Aura on his sword, Blackheart swings his Daedric Sword and release multiple slashes at the lightning bolts, canceling each other out. When the woman stopped her attack, Blackheart charged at her and swings his sword at her. But the woman blocks his attack and the two of them had their swords locked. Blackheart smirks at the woman and said "The outfit, the sword and the mask. I've only seen you in Qrow's old picture he carries around. Am I right, Raven?"

Finally calming down, both Blackheart and the woman slowly pulled their swords away from one another and the woman sheathed her sword away. She then grabbed her Grimm mask and takes it off, revealing the woman's face and showed that she looked almost exactly like Yang. Taking a deep breath, the woman, revealed as Raven, said "What are you doing here?"

Putting his sword away, Blackheart said "I should be asking you the same thing. I thought you were gone."

"In a way, I am," Raven said, "But you haven't answered my question."

Blackheart narrowed his eyes and said "Why should I tell you? You were never there for us. You were never there for Yang."

Hurt, Raven looks away and said "It's complicated."

"Complicated?" Blackheart asked, "How is leaving your daughter to the man you've been with and then disappearing complicated? You were family, Raven. Yang needed her mother."

Raven glared at him and said "And what do you know of family? I have been watching you all from a far and they took you in. You are not even blood related."

"It's more than that," Blackheart said, "It's more than just blood to make us family. It's the bond we share that makes us family. They could have left me out there or put me in an orphanage, but they took me in and treated me like family. You would understand that if you were part of it. And you know what? It's not too late to come back. Yang is desperately looking for you."

"Well she shouldn't," Raven said as she turns her back on him, "There are things I have done that I am not proud of."

"Like what?" Blackheart asked.

Raven took a deep breath and replied "Despite what I do of have done in the past, I am still a Huntress, wanting to make a world a better place…for my daughter and Ruby. But to do that…"

Realizing what she means, Blackheart said "You have to be on the other side."

Raven nodded and said "For the past few years, I have been looking into criminal activities and seeing anything that would bring harm to the kingdoms. Recently, I am part of something big."

"How big?" Blackheart asked.

Raven replied "I don't know. Roman is keeping us all in the dark. The only person he trusts is some girl barely Ruby's age. Strange girl, has pink hair on one side and brown on the other side. I think she is mute. Anyways, he has been leading the White Fang down Southeast."

"I know," Blackheart said, "But what is their plan?"

"Beats me," Raven said, "But I know this…with all the Dust he has robbed, it looks like he is going to war."

"I get that feeling," Blackheart said, "And what do you know of another group working with them?"

Raven looks at him and replied "They are a bigger mystery. I know that they are the ones behind it all: the robberies, the White Fang and the stolen military property."

Blackheart then asked "And what about Black Dust?"

Confused, Raven asked "Black Dust?"

Blackheart replied "Dust that turns you into a Grimm?"

Shocked, Raven gasped and said "There's such a thing?! I've never heard of it!"

"I know, right?" Blackheart said, "We encountered a Faunus who used it and transformed into a Grimm. He became faster and stronger."

"Well, I don't know where they got them," Raven said, "But this sounds dangerous."

As she took out her Scroll and looks at the time, she said "I have to go. There is a train I have to catch."

When Raven took out her sword, Blackheart placed his hand on her shoulder and said "It's not too late, Raven. There is still time to make up with Yang. She needs you, Raven. She needs her mother."

Raven sighed sadly and said "I wish…but it's already too late for me."

As Raven pulls her shoulder away from him, she swings her sword and created a black/red portal. When she begins walking towards it, she stops, turns around and said "Can…Can you tell Yang something?"

Blackheart nodded as Raven said "Can you tell her…tell her I'm proud of her. Of her being a Huntress…and for looking after her sister. And please…look after them."

After she said that, Raven stepped into the portal and disappeared. Once she was gone, the doors of the building opened and revealed Cinder and Emerald. Worried, Cinder asked "We heard you were in trouble, what happened?"

Shaking his head a bit, Blackheart said "Don't worry, false alarm."

"You sure?" Emerald asked.

"Positive," Blackheart said as he looks at them, "You guys found anything?"

Both Cinder and Emerald gave him a sad look and Cinder said "There…There is something you should see."

I hope you all enjoy this chapter. Yes people, Raven made her guest appearance in this chapter! Don't worry, she will appear later on! Next time, The Breach! Until then, please review!
