Okay guys, I'd like to say how sorry I am for not really posting anything lately.
I've not been having a good month lately and it's really been sticking it to me at the moment.
Anyway I'm gonna try to post this as soon as I can as well as hopefully a couple other stories.
Anyway I'm done taking up your time, here's the story you wanted to read.
[[]]
[Ruby's P.O.V]
What I found in the supply crate was what I could actually find useful, and grinned at it.
First off there was an NG standard issue sword. Sharp, practical, nothing special, but at least I could use it. Plus I was okay with using swords, I mean Uncle Qrow did have me train with them for a while in case I couldn't use Crescent Rose and I had to use his weapon.
'Sorry I laughed you off like that Uncle Qrow.' I thought, sure I wasn't using his weapon, but I don't have Crescent Rose.
Next in the box was an NG marked First Aid kit, I cracked it open to find several bottles I knew nothing about.
'The Green vials are Hi-Potions.' Alexander said, 'They're effective healing items, don't know if they work on Aura though, and the blue bottles are Elixirs, they're full heals and can remove all status ailments... I wonder how the NG replicated them, the knowledge in creating these are long since forgotten by the common folk.'
Hooking the kit to a latch under my cloak I turned back to the crate and pulled out... a small white rock?
"What?" I muttered.
'That's a Holy Stone.' Alexander said, 'They are basically stones that hold a single spell, most people who don't have GF's giving them magic use them to cast magic. Of course you can Draw the magic from them and add the spell to your stock.'
"Nice." I whispered, then I felt myself pulling the magic from the stone, causing the stone to dissolve into powder.
Next in the crate was some food rations, mostly bread and water, took those.
There was also several boxes of ammo, shotgun, pistol, sniper, and assault rifle rounds, though the casings of each bullet were pitch black.
'Dark Ammuniton.' Alexander said, 'I used to assist a SeeD named Irvine Kinneas who used ammo like this.'
"What do they do?" I asked quietly.
'Dark Ammo has a small chance to inflict an enemy with abnormal staus ailments.' Alexander said, 'Poisoning, Blinding, Silencing, even sudden drowsiness.'
Okay, that's something to keep on hand.
After putting the ammo boxes in my ammo pouch I pulled out the last thing in the box... A copy of The Girl Next Door.
"Why is this in there?" I muttered prying the magazine open, and almost immediately snapped it back shut.
The first page was completely covered by a naked woman, and she wasn't even trying to cover herself.
I threw that back into the crate and shut it, determined to get that picture out of my mind.
"Let's move on." I muttered picking the NG sword back up and moved through the tunnels.
[]
'Is that a train?' I thought peeking around a corner.
There was indeed a train, I saw several White Fang members loading boxes of something onto it, one member accidentally dropped a crate, causing the lid to pop open a bit and reveal red Dust Crystals.
At the sound of the crate being Dropped I saw Roman walk up the the guy and started to berate him for dropping the crate... right as someone else tripped over a Dust Crystal that popped out and fell, causing his crate to pop open to reveal a few guns inside.
'Alexander, you got any idea's?' I asked my GF in my mind.
'None... You're out numbered at the moment and you don't have your preferred weapon on hand.' Alexander said, 'Ifrit would probably just go with the biggest explosion he can muster, but that could cause these caves to collapse.'
At that moment, there was an explosion.
'Oh geez.' Alexander and I thought.
Another explosion tore through the area, revealing the rest of my team, Dr. Oobleck.
Just as some White Fang ran past me I dash toward my team at top speed.
"Ruby!" Yang cried as she suddenly grabbed me and pulled me into a hug, crushing me slightly.
"Are you okay?" Weiss asked with genuine worry.
"I'm fine, I'm fine! But listen! Torchwick's got all kinds of weapons down there." I said pointing the NG Sword at Roman, who seemed to be walking toward the train.
"What?" Blake asked as she handed me Crescent Rose, which I took and sheathed the NG sword where Crescent Rose normally sat.
"I saw them carrying crates of Dust and weapons onto that train." I said as Boko flew out of Yang's hair and into my hood.
"Ahhhh, that's ridiculous. These tunnels are sealed, the tracks lead to a dead-end." Dr. Oobleck said.
At that moment Roman's Voice came on over the speakers, "Get to your place's we are leaving now!" Roman announced, and then the train let loose steam and began to move.
"Well it sounds like they're going somewhere." Yang said.
'Remember we can't get a signal out here.' Alexander reminded me.
'Ah that's right, we can't call for backup." I grumbled.
"So what do we do?" Weiss asked.
"I believe we only have one option." Oobleck said.
"We're stopping that train." I said deploying Crescent Rose.
[]
We got aboard the train rather easily seeing as it wasn't going too fast yet and climbed to the top of the car's.
"Alright children we have to get to the front to stop this train." Oobleck said as Yang ripped off the hatch or the car we were on before throwing it off the side of the train, and causing me and my team to freeze at what we saw inside.
"Uh professor," Weiss said.
"Doctor." Oobleck growled.
"What's that?" Weiss asked pointing inside the hatch.
"That my dear, appears to be a bomb." Oobleck said causing me and my team to take a step back.
"At least it's not the monster kind." Diablos said.
I've got to remember to ask one of the GF's about that later. Then I noticed several dozen White Fang members climbing to the top of the Train cars.
"We've got baddies!" I shouted pointing at them.
"Diablos, get them." Blake said.
"With pleasure." Diablos said spreading his wings and launching himself at them.
"Well I didn't expect them to go-" Oobleck started but stopped when we heard the bomb arm itself, "Easy on us."
'Don't bother putting Firaga to your Elemental Resistance.' Ifrit announced, 'It won't stop the bomb from tearing your body apart.'
"Thanks for the tip." Yang said as we started moving to the next car, however Dr. Oobleck stopped Blake.
"Blake detach the caboose, it will kill us all." Oobleck ordered.
"On it." Blake said jumping down to cut the car off, but it disconnected, before she could, "Huh, it decoupled itself!".
"What!?" Oobleck called.
"I guess he really doesn't want us on this train." Yang said as the disconnected car exploded, shattering part of the tunnel.
"That's not good." Oobleck said while I opened another hatch, only to be met in the face by another bomb.
"Uh neither is this." I announced.
"No, no, no." Oobleck said as he ran to the next car to check, "They all have bombs!"
"This doesn't make sense." Yang said as several White Fang flew by in the air, looking over I noticed Diablos had kicked one guy in the nuts with enough force to lift him into the air, we didn't stand on the cars we knew had bombs and had quickly rushed off of them.
"He's leading Grimm to the city!" Oobleck called sortly after we heard another explosion.
"What!?" Weiss shouted as we looked back, sure enough there we Grimm climbing out of the holes made by the explosion and chasing the train.
"It's the cars! They detach and explode, creating openings for the Grimm!" Oobleck explained.
'And the Grimm follow the negative feelings of everyone on board.' Shiva said as yet another member of the Fang flew past her.
"That's insane!" Blake called as another train car decoupled.
'We've met crazier.' Alexander said, 'We'll explain later.'
"We have to hurry!" Oobleck shouted. "You three go below and try to stop those bomb's!" he ordered pointing at Yang, Weiss, and Blake.
"What about us?" I asked.
"We're going to stop this train." Oobleck said.
"Yeah I know, I said that earlier." I said.
"Diablos!" Blake called.
Diablos nodded and faded away as two WF members tried to tackle him, only to end up tackling each other.
[No P.O.V.]
Yang, Weiss and Blake dropped down into the train car, which really only had a few crates inside and was otherwise empty.
"I guess this is what we trained for." Yang said.
"Here this should help you." Weiss said handing Blake a clip of Dust ammunition.
The group started to run through the car, but was soon cut off when Roman's right hand woman, Neopolitan, dropped down from the top of the car.
"You guys go on ahead, this one's mine." Yang said cracking her knuckles, Weiss and Blake ran past her, with Yang firing once to keep her attention.
Yang and Neo walk up to each other and stare at each other face to face, with Neo being a head shorter than Yang and suddenly inverting the color of her eyes before grinning.
Of course Yang also grinned, because Ifrit manifested behind Neo and threw a punch, blindsiding her and throwing her to the side.
"Fira!" Yang shouted casting the spell, causing a pillar of fire to burst up beneath Neo, who quickly dodged the attack, but still got her coat singed.
Neo looked at the singe and then proceeded to glare at Yang, who had cast a Protect Spell while she was distracted.
Neo opened her parasol and gave Yang a 'come at me' gesture.
Yang smirked and cast a Haste spell on herself before dashing toward Neo, who was caught off guard by Yang's sudden burst of speed and took several punches to the face and chest before getting roundhouse kicked into a crate.
Surprisingly Neo recovered and instead of crashing into the crate she managed to land so she was sitting on the crate.
Ifrit decided that Yang had this covered and chose fade until Yang called for him, all while Yang grinned and cracked her neck.
Yang lunged at Neo once again, this time Neo was more prepared for Yang's speed, and began to use her parasol to attempt to push aside Yang's attacks, however it was not working as well as Neo would have hoped.
Her parasol was infused with Dust, which gave it incredible durability, enough that it could survive a tornado with little damage, however Yang's punches were causing the parasol to creak from the force of the deflected attacks.
Neo was then pushed back when she faltered to make sure her weapon wasn't about to break, and as a result slugged in the face to push her back.
Neo realized that her weapon couldn't protect her in this fight, and in turn used her ability to escape, leaving Yang with a glass illusion that shattered under her punch.
"Coward!" Yang shouted angered.
What Yang didn't know was that Raven was watching her, having created a small portal that was only big enough from her to look through with one eye.
"She's gotten so strong thank's to Ifrit." Raven mused, wondering if she had made the right choice... because it was looking like her current choice is getting ready to bite her in the ass.
[During this point in time, with Weiss and Blake]
Weiss and Blake ran through the next train car, only to stop when they heard the revving of a chainsaw.
The holder of said chainsaw was a large member of the White Fang, a Lieutenant to be exact.
"You go on ahead!" Weiss said.
"Got it." Blake agreed before dashing past the lieutenant.
Of course the big guy didn't just let her pass, but Blake block his attack, allowing Weiss to jump in and land several strikes to knock him down, allowing Blake to pass.
What they didn't notice was that his aura collapsed from the attack.
The Lieutenant chuckled, "Finally." He said, "I get to kill a-"
He was cut off in his speech however when a gunshot filled the car, followed by a blade suddenly protruding from the Lieutenant's chest.
"You don't get to kill anything animal." A male voice said as the lieutenant was pushed off the blade by a foot, "I'm gonna kill you." Slate said.
Weiss went wide eyed at the ruthless murder preformed by Slate.
Slate kicked the body, "Heh, did you really think you'd get away from me?" Slate asked the corpse, "You wouldn't have beaten the ironing board there if your Aura was that low."
"Hey!" Weiss snapped, mainly at the ironing board comment.
"Oh sorry about that, I forget that flaties are sensitive about being... well flat." Slate said, "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Slate, one of the eight Neo Galbadian commanders."
"Why are you here then?" Weiss demanded pointing Myrtenaster at Slate.
"Well then flaty let me explain." Slate said, ignoring the tic mark that was growing on Weiss's forehead, "I just came to kill, mostly Grimm, but the Faunus of the White Fang would do."
"Are you going to try to kill me next then?" Weiss demanded.
"Oh how I wish I could." Slate said lowing his gunblade, "But Musaline finds you and the other Guardian Force users entertaining or something because she's given me orders not to kill you. ME, no one else!"
Weiss raised an eyebrow at that before Slate's scroll went off, surprising Weiss at the reception.
"Yeah Muse?" Slate asked answering his scroll and putting it to his ear, "Alright fine." He grumbled hanging up, "See you again flaty."
With that Slate walked through a rippling wall of the car.
Weiss on the other hand was steaming when Yang came in, "You okay Weiss?" Yang asked.
"Peachy." Weiss growled as she walked past the WF corpse, Yang doing the same though a little on edge.
The two walked into the next train car, and noticed Blake had already pinned Roman before knocking him out with a kick to the head.
"You guys okay?" Blake asked.
"I'm fine, Weiss is steaming though." Yang said hiking a thumb at Weiss, who was still rather ticked.
"Then I think it would be a bad time to mention this." Diablos said holding up a metal bar with a grip, "Roman candle here broke this off the train."
Weiss's anger vanished into worry, "We gotta go let Ruby know!" Weiss shouted.
[]
"What!?" Ruby shouted when Weiss told her the train can't stop.
"So what do we do?" Blake asked as they noticed a concrete wall coming up.
Weiss stabbed Myrtenaster into the top of the train to create a shell of ice, while Yang cast a Protect Spell on her, Ruby and Blake casting the same spell on themselves.
[[]]
Well folks, that's the chapter.
Yeah, Weiss didn't really fight anything in that sequence, but on the flip side she now knows another name of the NG commanders.
Anyway I've got to other story chapters that are half written so I'm gonna go work on those.
Remember to review!
