Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Shadow Feline. Enjoy the 1000-words. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth do.

(Argus, Seeing Red.)

Ven, Blake and Adam circled each other, Ven drew Jade Kikyou from his back and faced Adam.

"You were too much of a coward to fight me head on, cousin?" Ven growled as Adam looked at Blake.

"You were stalling me because you couldn't fight me alone, could you, Blake?" Adam asked as he lunged at Ven who parried the blow and clashed head to head with Adam as sparks flew from their blades.

Ven pushed more, trying to overpower Adam.

"Your one to talk for someone to scared to fight me without an army of soldiers shooting and clawing me down…" Ven growled as Adam flipped back and slashed at his head, Ven ducked under the slash and then parried another slash at his ribs.

"You'd side with Humanity over your own kind? You'd choose her over family?!" Adam all but growled and lunged at Ven and then threw himself at Ven.

Ven rolled out of the way of the lunge and then blocked an overhead swing as Ven turned and fired a burst from the hilt. Blake lunged at him from behind.

Adam blocked it as Ven slashed him on the back, Adam growled in pain as the sword cut through his jacket.

Ven rushed him as Adam grinned and slashed at him, Ven went flying from the slash of Moonslice. He slammed into a tree and rolled down the hill.

"Ven!" Blake yelled as Adam lunged at her, Blake blocked an overhead slash and flipped back before sliding down a hill, switching Gambol Shroud into its machine pistol form and firing at him which he blocked.

"You can't run from me, Blake… And you can't hide behind a broken man…" Adam growled as Ven sent him flying with a slash of his claws, blasting him with his Semblance.

"You need to stop running your mouth." Ven growled as he tossed a massive branch at him which Adam cut in half, sending the timber into the river. Adam fired at Ven who deflected the bullets which went pinging into the forest.

Ven looked at his bleeding cheek, he growled as his Aura healed the wound but shimmered from the hit.

Adam leapt at Ven who flipped back from the stab at him which planted Wilt into the ground and then fired a round at Ven which he blocked with the flat of his blade.

That was before a dropkick from Blake made him go sliding back. He growled and kicked her to the side as she slashed at him, Ven stabbed at him which was parried before an elbow sent him stumbling.

"You couldn't beat me all those years ago, Ven…. This isn't going to be like that fight in Mistral." Adam said with a grin, Ven leaned on his sword and panted.

"That was a long time ago…. And I'm standing my ground, Adam… I should have killed you on that airship." Ven stated as Adam lunged at him. Ven barely managed to block the blow which made him slide back.

"You were too cowardly to make the hard choices…" Adam said before he kicked Ven down the hill.

Ven tried to grip the hill, he failed and rolled down the hill and slammed into a tree. Adam went to rush at him before Blake blocked the strike, Ven panted in exhaustion.

He had spent 30 minutes rushing and fighting through the White Fang and they had chipped and chipped at his Aura and his stamina. He looked up to see Adam knock Blake to the ground before Ven fired at him and slowly climbed to his feet.

He needed to recuperate his Aura, that meant he needed time to rest… But he couldn't leave Blake to fight Adam, she was fast like him, but he was stronger and he'd overwhelm her sooner or later and her cat and mouse tactics wouldn't work if he didn't keep the pressure on Adam.

He cursed and started to climb back up the hill, this was going to be a tough fight.

(Blake and Adam)

Blake stepped out of the way of a crane kick at her head and then flipped over a lunge from Adam and then slashing at his back.

Ven rushed into his back and then slammed him into a tree before punching him in the chest. Adam kicked him back as Ven panted once again. Ven was ready to puke, but he refused to back down.

"Getting tired, Ven?" Adam sneered as Ven sighed and looked at him before he cracked his neck.

"I'm not tired… Just warming up… I'm glad you got some exercise for me…" Ven said as he blocked a stab from Adam and headbutted the terrorist back.

Ven brushed off his coat and then blasted Adam with his semblance, knocking him over the edge of cliff.

Adam growled and climbed up to notice Ven was gone as well. He looked around for Blake and didn't see her at all.

"COWARDS!" Adam yelled as he chased after the duo.

(With Ven)

Ven panted and leaned on a tree, he needed time to rest and he had given him a few minutes for his Aura to stitch itself back up and the need to catch his breath.

He brushed off his jacket and inserted a new magazine into his weapon before looking out from the tree. He took a few breaths and then prepared to continue fighting and go after Adam for another round.

He and Blake needed to finish this battle once and for all.
