Hello everyone. Ready for the next part of team SSSN's battle against team NDGO?

Chapter 37

Sun looked around, seeing that Neptune is fighting against Gwen Darcy, a female with black hair and brown eyes, who is attacking him with her knives. Scarlet decided to help Sage as he fought Dew.

The member of of team NDGO summoned up another tornado which Scarlet and Sage managed to get trapped in.

However, before they could get knocked out of the fight. They managed to get out of it, landing onto the ship wreck. Sage landed on the deck of the ship whilst Scarlet landed on the mast, almost loosing his balance.

Nebula decided to make her appearance and starting to attack Scarlet, turning her crossbow into a sword and clashed blades with Scarlet.

The two of them ducking or missing each other as they fought each other on the mast until Nebular slammed her weapon into Scarlet, forcing him to lean back on the post.

With Sage, he continued his fight with Dew, managing to fend off Dew as she attack him with her spear. Sage swing his sword in a horizontal slash, however, Dew ducked under the attack, giving her a good position to attack Sage.

She thrust her spear at Sage who managed to dive out of the way, letting the spear hit the mast instead. This cause Scarlet and Nebular to loose their balance slightly.

Scarlet recovered first and used the opportunity to knock Nebular off the ship and onto the sand. Looking down, he decided to help Sage again.

With Sun, he decided to help Neptune fight against Gwen and used two coconut as improvised weapons as he throw them at Gwen, distracting her.

"Thanks!" Neptune called before using his weapon's spear mode to attack Gwen. However, the member of team NDGO managed to get her bearings back and defend herself against Neptune with her knives.

"And it looks like that both teams are even now." Professor Port announced, causing Sun to glance at the holographic screen to see that Scarlet's picture has been crossed out.

Sun grimace slightly before sensing something coming towards him. He turned his head just in time to see the coconuts that he throw earlier coming back towards him, now covered in fire.

This made Sun surprise before managing to dodge the flaming coconuts. He looked up to see Nebular charging towards him.

"Glad to see that my ideas are popular." Sun muttered before blocking Nebula's sword with his red staff.

Sage's and Dew's fight brought them out of the shipwreck and into the water. This caused Sun to gain a idea in his head.

"Hey, Neptune!" Sun called as he dodge a attack, causing the light-blue haired teen to glance in the monkey Faunus's direction.

"Yeah, what is it?!" Neptune called as he swing his weapon at Gwen.

"I want you to bring your opponent into the water!" Sun replied, causing Neptune to gain a horrified look on his face.

"Absolutely not!" Neptune shouted, causing Gwen to raise a eye-brow.

"Your...afraid of water?" Gwen asked in questioning tone of voice, causing Neptune to look at her.

"I-I didn't say that I was a-afraid of the w-water." Neptune replied, stuttering slightly, causing Qwen to roll her eyes.

"Sure sound convincing, aren't you?" Gwen asked, causing Neptune to frown at her.

"I'll show you how convincing I can be." Neptune said in semi-determined tone of voice and suddenly Gwen finding herself moving backwards due to flurry of attacks that Neptune throw at her.

With Sun, the monkey Faunus finally get his opponent into the water's edge. With a jab to the stomach, Sun managed to push Nebular into the water.

"Sage!" Sun called whilst trying to keep Nebular in the water and trying to get her further in.

"Yes?!" Sage called as he blocked a attack from Dew.

"When Neptune get his opponent into the water, immediately jump out of it." Sun explained as he used his nun-chucks to attack Nebular.

"I try my best." Sage said as he received a wave of water to face, blinding him slightly. Sun glanced towards Neptune and he smiled to see that the light-blue haired teen has managed to get Gwen into the water.

"Now what you want me to do?" Neptune asked, trying his best to keep as far away from the water as possible.

"I want you to prod your weapon into the water." Sun replied, causing Sage to widen his eyes.

"I defiantly get out of the water!" Sage exclaimed in his head before swinging his sword upwards, causing water to spay into the air.

Sage used the distraction to get out of the water as fast as he could. Neptune slowly made his way towards the water's edge and thrust his trident into the water, causing electricity to flow through the water. A buzzing sound is heard after the remaining members of team NDGO got electrocuted.

"Well, that was a shocking win." Yang said with a smirk on her face.

"You just had to say that, didn't you?" Weiss asked, causing Yang to shrug her shoulders.

"Maybe." Yang replied with a grin on her face as Sun and Neptune started dancing like fools.

"Well done, Sage!" Ruby called, causing the green haired sword wielder to turn his head towards her and waved at her whilst smiling.

"Wow. Someone likes to gain someone's attention." Blake said with a small smirk on her face.

"Sh-shut up." Ruby said, stuttering slightly whilst gaining a blush on her cheeks.

Blake shook her head before looking back at the victorious team, just in time to see Sun giving her a double-gun gesture with a wink.

Blake started to blush at this. "I could be saying the same thing to you." Ruby said with a smirk on her face, causing Blake to avoid eye contact with the silver eye girl who turned her attention back at Sage and waved at him.


In Vale, a male with black hair and blue eyes came out of a cafe having just finish watching team SSSN's win against team NDGO.

"It's a pity I couldn't get here sooner and sitting at the stadium. Transport is usually slow during the time of the Vytal tournament." The male whilst sighing and closing his eyes.

However, the blue eyed male began to smile."Oh well. I still have time to see my pupil in action." The blue eyed male thought again before noticing a majestic-looking air ship appeared in the sky.

"Hmmm? An Atlas military ship?" The male thought, recognizing the design of the ship.

"Why do I gain the feeling that something bad will happen?" The male thought before heading in a direction, his sword swaying against his waist. On his arm is a shield that is attached to a gauntlet.


"Next round guys. We're going to the next round!" Sun cheered with a smile on his face.

"Yeah!" the other members of his team cheered as well. However, Scarlet has a depress look on his face.

"Is there something wrong, buddy?" Neptune asked, causing Sun and Sage to notice the look on Scarlet's face.

"I just feel depress that I'm the only one in our team that got knocked out." Scarlet explained in a depress tone of voice.

"Cheer up, Scarlet. Some times you win and some times you loose. That's life." Sage explained, causing Scarlet to hum slightly.

"Maybe." Scarlet said quietly.

"That's the spirit, Scarlet." Sage said, trying to improve the red-head's mood.

"So, who's going into the doubles round?" Neptune asked, looking at Sun.

"Well, I was thinking that/Hey, guys!" A voice called, interrupting the monkey Faunus. Team SSSN turned around to see Ruby running towards them.

"Hi, Ruby. What's the rush? Sage's not going anywhere." Sun said with a grin on her face as Sage began to blush. Ruby stopped in front of them and looked behind her.

"Is there something wrong, Ruby?" Sage asked, starting to become worried.

"Well-" Ruby began to say, but she was interrupted as hurrying footsteps can be heard.

"Oh no..." Ruby groaned, causing team SSSN to look at each other confusedly.

"Are you being chase-!" Sun began to ask but was stopped as Ruby suddenly hid behind Sage.

"Where's that red-cloaked girl!" A voice shouted and after a few seconds, a crowd of people came running pass them.

"...I think that's our fan club." Scarlet said, remembering seeing a group of people with boards that has pictures of them.

"Ruby...were you being chased by them?" Sage asked, turning his head to face Ruby.

"...Yes." Ruby admittedly, causing Sage to look at the others. However, before anyone could speak, alone fan that was slower than the others notice them.

"Team SSSN!" The fan exclaimed, suddenly appearing in front of them. Sun, Scarlet and Neptune immediately stood next to Sage that a brick wall, preventing the fan from seeing Ruby.

"Er...Hi there." Scarlet said, slightly nervous at the Fan's behavior who was had a big grin on her face.

"Oh! Well done on your victory! You were amazing!" The Fan exclaimed, causing Sun to laugh nervously.

"Yeah. Thank you." Sun said, scratching the back of his head.

"Hey. Have you seen a girl wearing a red-cloak or a girl with a black bow on her head?" The Fan asked, causing team SSSN to become confuse.

"No, we haven't." Sage replied, feeling Ruby shaking slightly.

"Why are you asking?" Neptune asked, causing the Fan to clear her throat.

"Well, those two seemed to be hogging your attention. So we deciding to teach them a lesson." The Fan explained, causing team SSSN to glance at each other.

"We lost sight of the girl with the black bow, but we saw the red-cloaked girl running in this direction. Have you seen her?" The Fan asked, causing team SSSN to immediately shake their heads.

"Nope! We haven't seen any red-cloaked girls. Haven't we, guys?" Neptune asked, causing Sun, Sage and Scarlet to shake their heads. The Fan frowned at them before shrugging her shoulders.

"Oh well. Better get back looking for that girl. See you later." The Fan said before walking away from team SSSN.

When the Fan disappeared, team SSSN turned around to look at Ruby.

"...Yeah. Me and Blake were being chased by your fans. Hehehe..." Ruby explained, laughing nervously.

"Where is Blake?" Sun asked, looking around, hoping to see that the cat Faunus is some where close by.

"No idea. I lost sight of her where we started being chased by your fan club." Ruby replied whilst scratching the back of her head.

"Oh well. At least she's good at hiding." Sun said in a thoughtful tone of voice. It was then that more footsteps can be heard, causing Ruby to quickly hide behind Sage again.

After a few seconds, Weiss appeared, causing team SSSN to become relax.

"Hello, snow angel." Neptune greeted, however Weiss just glared at him.

"Have you seen Ruby? I think she went this way when she was being chased by that fan club of yours." Weiss asked, causing Sun, Scarlet and Neptune to look at Sage, or rather, whose behind Sage.

Ruby poke her head around Sage, making Weiss jump slightly.

"Hi, Weiss. Worried about me?" Ruby asked with a sheepish smile on her face. Weiss closed her eyes and sighed. "

Of course I was worried, you dolt. Seeing a bunch of angry girls chasing your teammate will cause worry to arise." Weiss explained as Ruby came out from behind Sage.

"Where's Yang?" Ruby asked, glancing behind Weiss to see if her sister is behind Weiss.

"She's searching for Blake. Don't know where she's went." Weiss replied before looking at Sun.

"Congratulation on your win." Weiss said with a small smile on her face.

"Thanks. It looks like that both of us are going into the double-rounds." Sun said, causing both Ruby and Weiss to nod their heads.

It was then that Sage notice that Scarlet is looking up. "What's up, buddy?" Sage asked, causing the others to notice Scarlet looking up as well. "

There's a Atlasian Militant ship coming." Scarlet replied, causing the others to look up and saw a ship descending.

When Weiss recognized the ship, her face lit up.

"She's here." Weiss said in a slightly excited tone of voice, causing the others to look at her.

"Who's here, Weiss?" Ruby asked in a confused tone of voice. However, Weiss started to run off towards the docks.

"...Should we follow her?" Neptune asked with a uncertain look on his face.

"Yes." Ruby replied before following Weiss, causing the others to follow the silver eye girl.


Weiss arrived at the docks just as the ship landed. "I wonder why she's here?" Weiss thought becoming nervous all of a sudden.

"Weiss!" Ruby called, causing the heiress to glance over her shoulder to see Ruby and team SSSN approuching her.

"What's the matter?Who's coming?" Ruby asked in a confused tone of voice.

It was then that the hatch to the ship opened up and a person with white hair and blue eyes walked off the ship along with a escort of Atlesian knights.

"...Winter." Weiss replied with a small smile on her face, making team SSSN confused whilst Ruby became surprise.

"Your sister?!" Ruby exclaimed, causing Weiss to nod her head.

"Weiss has an older sister?" Neptune asked, glancing at his teammates.

"It certainly looks like it." Sage replied as Weiss cupped her mouth.

"Winter!" Weiss called, causing the elder sister to look in her direction as Ruby and Weiss approached her, leaving team SSSN behind.

"Winter! I'm so happy to see you." Weiss began to say before suddenly curtsies.

"Your presence honors us." Weiss said as Winter looks around as she approach the two.

"Beacon...its been a long time. The air feels...different." Winter commented, causing Ruby and Weiss confused.

"Maybe because the Winter Maiden is here?" Weiss muttered, causing Ruby to glare at her slightly.

"So, what are you doing here?" Weiss asked, starting up a conversation.

"Classified." Winter replied, causing Weiss to nod her head in understatement.

"Oh, right. Well, how long are you staying?" Weiss asked again.

"Classified." Winter replied again, causing a awkward silence to descend around the three of them.

"Wow. My family reunion was more emotional." Ruby thought, starting to feel awkward herself.

"Your going to love it here! I know you travel a lot, but so much of Beacon is different from Atlas! Vale, too. The government and school are completely separate." Weiss explained, causing Ruby to mentally face palm herself.

"I'm more than familiar with how this Kingdom handles its...bureaucracy. This is not the reason why I came here." Winter said, causing Wiess to bit her lips. "Right! I'm sorry!" Weiss said in a apologetic tone of voice.

"Nor did I came here to watch my own blood fail so miserably in battle. But it appears that I have no choice in the matter." Winter explained, causing Ruby to wince slightly.

"Owch." Ruby thought, looking at Weiss with a slightly sympathetic look on her face.

"But, we won!" Weiss said, slightly puzzled.

"Only a novice would call that a victory. I counted at least three strike misses." Winter explained before turning towards her escort.

"Leave us." Winter ordered, causing the Atlesian knights to walk backwards and into formation.

Winter let out a sigh before smiling more warmly at Weiss. "How have you been?" Winter asked, causing Ruby to mentally shout with joy.

"Now for the real reunion!" Ruby shouted in excitement in her head.

"Oh, splendid! Thank you for asking. I'm actually one of the best in my sparring classes and my studies are going wonderfully, too! I'm-" Weiss began to say but was interrupted by Winter hitting her on the head.

"Back to square one." Ruby though miserably.

"You boob! I didn't recall asking about your ranking, I'm asking how you've been. Are you eating properly? Have you taken up any hobbies? Are you making friends?" Winter asked in a concern tone of voice.

"Well, there's Ruby." Weiss replied, gesturing to the silver eye girl whilst rubbing the place where Winter hit her.

"I see. So this is the leader you wrote of." Winter replied, slowly examining Ruby. The silver eye girl became nervous.

"You just like a smaller version of your mother." Winter said, causing Ruby and Wiess to become surprise.

"You know my mum?" Ruby asked in surprise tone of voice.

"Not exactly. I was shown a picture of her and her team by..." Winter began to explain before taking a deep breath.

"...a drunken crow." Winter finished, forcing the words out.

"He's my Uncle." Ruby pointed out, causing Winter to gain wide eyes.

"He's not my actual uncle. Qrow is my half sister's uncle." Ruby explained, causing Winter to become relaxed.

"That's a relief then." Winter said, causing Ruby to giggle slightly.

"I have business with the General and your Headmaster. But, seeing that I'm early, why don't you show my your quarters?" Winter asked, causing Weiss's face lit up.

"Really?" Weiss asked, causing Winter to nod her head.

"Yes. I wish to inspect them and make sure that they are up to my personal standards." Winter replied as she, Weiss and her escorts started to head towards Beacon.

"Of course. Just to be aware, the bunk beds only look unstable." Weiss said, causing Winter to stare at her.

"Bunk beds...?" Winter asked in a confused tone of voice.

"My idea." Ruby said whilst raising a arm into the air, causing Winter to turn to look at her with a questioning look.

"...I'll just be hanging out with team SSSN if you want me." Ruby explained, feeling slightly nervous under Winter's gaze, before making her way towards the still present team SSSN, all of them waving awkwardly at Winter.

Winter gave the team a few seconds look before starting to walk again.

"Hey!" a voice called, causing Winter, Weiss and the Aslain knights to stop and turn around to see a black hair man with red eyes next to a Aslain knight who has it's head removed.

"Yeah, I'm talking to you Ice Queen!" Qrow said as he removed the head that he has in his hands.

One of the Aslain knights next to Winter raise it's weapon and advance towards Qrow.

"Halt!" Winter ordered, causing the advancing Aslain knight to stop.

"Excuse me!" Weiss called as she approach Qrow

"Do you have any idea who your speaking to!?" Weiss asked, but Qrow place a hand onto her face.

"Sssssshh. Not you." Qrow said as he push Weiss out of the way before moving forward.

"You." Qrow said as he he looks at the irritated Winter.

"Saw that gaudy ship of yours in town. I guess you're here, too." Qrow explained, causing Winter to close her eyes before taking a deep breath.

"I'm standing right in front of you." Winter said as she re-open her eyes.

"Who's that guy who has the same hair and eye colour as Yang's mum?" Scarlet asked, looking at Qrow with a confused look on his face.

"That's Qrow Branwen, Raven's brother." Ruby replied, causing team SSSN to become surprise.

"Brother!? But he seemed a completely different person as Yang's mum!" Sun explained, causing Ruby to chuckle slightly.

"Yeah. That what it looks like." Ruby said before sensing something.

"A Maiden!" Ruby exclaimed in her head before looking around.

"Ruby. What's wrong?" Sage asked in a concern tone of voice, noticing Ruby looking around.

"There's a Maiden close by. I can feel her." Ruby whispered, causing team SSSN to become surprise.

"Where?" Neptune asked whilst he and the others place a hand on their weapons. Ruby didn't reply as she continue to look.

After a few seconds, she located where the Maiden is.

"A raven?" Ruby thought in confusion, staring at the raven which is on a post, staring at the conversation between Qrow and Winter.

"Did you find where the Maiden is?" Sun whispered, noticing that Ruby is staring at something.

Sun and the other's looked in the same direction that Ruby is staring at, causing him to raise a eye-brow.

"A...raven?" Scarlet said with a questioning look on his face.

"Is it possible that Maiden can transform into animals?" Neptune asked, feeling slightly creep out by the raven.

"I don't know. I never thought about that be-!" Ruby began to reply but stop when Qrow and Winter started to fight each other.

"What does that man's thinking? Attacking a military specialist." Weiss asked as she join Ruby and team SSSN.

"Er...Weiss/ Hey Guys!" a voice called, interupting Ruby, causing the 6 of then to turn their heads to see Blake and Yang approaching them.

"You managed to find Blake then?" Weiss asked, causing Yang to nod her head.

"Yeah found her hiding in a tree." Yang replied, causing Sun to snigger.

"I find that appropriate." Sun said, causing Blake to glare at him. "

Shut up, Sun." Blake said before turning her attention towards Ruby.

"I'm sorry if I left you, Ruby. You didn't got attack by that fan club?" The cat Faunus asked, causing the silver eye girl to shake her head.

"NoPe. I managed to bump into team SSSN and hid behind Sage." Ruby replied, causing the green hair sword wielder to scratch the back of her head.

"How ironic." Yang said with a grin on her face.

"What's going on here?" Blake asked, just noticing the fighting.

"My sister made a surprise visit and some guy thought it was a good idea to fight her." Weiss explained, causing Blake and Yang to gain shock expressions on their face.

"Who would do that?" Yang asked before looking at the fighters. When Yang's eyes land on Qrow, her face lit up.

"That's Uncle Qrow!" Yang exclaimed excitedly, causing Weiss to gain a shock expression on her face.

"He's your Uncle!? He's nothing like your Mum, Yang!" Weiss exclaimed, but Yang didn't seem to listen her.

"I tried to tell you, Weiss..." Ruby muttered before sighing. "Kick her butt, Qrow!" Yang shouted, causing Weiss to become wide eyed.

"..." Weiss didn't know what to say before turning her attention towards her sister.

"Show him some respect, Winter!" Weiss called, causing both Ruby and Blake to sigh.

"They both competitive, aren't they?" Neptune asked, causing the silver eye girl and cat Faunus to nod their heads.

Back with Qrow and Winter, the two of them managed to destroy half of Beacon's courtyard. currently the two of them at the moment are facing each other with a good distance between them.

"Heh. still strong as ever, Winter." Qrow said with a smirk on his face. "I'm surprise that you can fight...with that drunking state of yours." Winter stated with a dismissive look on her face.

"Say..." Qrow began to say, causing Winter to raise a eye-brow.

"Why don't we finished this fight?" Qrow asked, causing Winter to close her eyes. After a few seconds, the elder Schnee began to smirk.

"You know what, Qrow. That's the best idea that you ever thought of." Winter said as she re-opened her eyes.

The two of them stared at each other for a one solid minute before charging at each other. Their blades were about to clash until...a third blade came out of somewhere in a upward slash, causing both Qrow's and Winter's weapons to fly out of their hands.

"Huh?/what!?" Both Qrow and Winter said at the same time in a confused tone of voice, staring at their missing weapons.

"Gzzzz. If you two want to fight. Then you should signed up for the tournament." A voice said, causing Qrow and Winter to turn their heads to see the male with black hair and blue eyes. In his hand is sword with a black hilt and a blue blade.

"What do you think your doing?" Winter asked whilst glaring at the man.

"Just breaking up a fight. What do you I was doing?" The man asked as he sheathed his sword. "You have no business to/ Schnee!" A voice interrupted Winter, causing her, Qrow and the man to turn around to see General Ironwood with Penny standing next to him.

"General Ironwood, sir" Winter addressed the general as she lowers her sword.

"What in the world do you think you doing?!" General Ironwood asked as he looked disapprovingly at Winter and Qrow.

"He started the altercation, sir!" Winter explained, referring to Qrow who looked totally relaxed.

"That's not actually true. She attacked first." Qrow said, causing Ironwood to stare at Winter.

"Is that right?" Ironwood asked, causing Winter to open her mouth to say something, but realized that Qrow is right. She looked down at the floor.

Ironwood shook his head with closed eyes before turning attention towards the blue eyed male.

"Thank you for breaking up this fight. These two...don't get along with each other." Ironwood explained, causing the blue eyed male to smile slightly.

"No problem. I didn't want the two of them to destroy Beacon's courtyard." The blue eyed male explained, causing Ironwood to look at the damaged that Qrow and Winter caused.

"Yes. I agree with you on that." Ironwood as Glynda started to fixed the damage with her Semblance.

"Now then everyone." A voice said, causing the crowed of people in the courtyard to turn their heads to see Professor Ozpin approaching them.

"there's a sanctioned fight happened around corner at the stadium, that I can assure you has better seats." Ozpin explained as he swirls his coffee.

"Break it up, everyone! We will take care of this mess." Professor Goodwitch explained, causing the whole crowd to disperse, except for a few.

"Let go." Ironwood said as he started to head towards Beacon, being followed by Penny and Winter. Qrow was about to follow them but stop to look at the blue eyed male.

"Your really shouldn't have stop our fight. I could have handled her." Qrow explained, causing blue eyed male to stare at the red eyed male.

"Well. You were causing a scene." The male said, causing Qrow to shrug his shoulders.

"I don't mind." Qrow said, making the blue eyed male to sigh.

"Qrow!" Ozpin called, causing Qrow to perk up.

"Yeah. I should get going. The name's Qrow Branwen by the way." Qrow said, introducing himself to the male.

"Hello, Qrow. My name is Ryan Leon." The now named Ryan introduce himself to Qrow

"See you around then, Ryan." Qrow said before walking towards Beacon himself.

"He's a strange person." Ryan muttered to himself as he watch Qrow disappearing.

"Why so I gain the feeling that I know that na-OHF!" Ryan was about to asked himself but he was interrupted as a red blur crashed into him.

"...What just happened?" Yang asked, just seeing her little sister suddenly running towards Ryan.

"Well, we won't get the answer if we stand here?" Blake said before she, Weiss, Yang and team SSSN heading to where Ruby and Ryan landed.

"Owch...what just hit me?" Ryan muttered as sat up whilst blue Aura flickered around the blue eye male, protecting Ryan from most of the damage. Ryan looked down and his eyes widen when he saw the person who crashed into him.

"R-Ruby?!" Ryan exclaimed in a surprise tone of voice.

"Hello, Teacher. It's been a while, hasn't it?" Ruby asked with a wide smile on her face.


"Gzzz Rubes, you really need to calm down." Yang said to a excited Ruby. Currently, it's the next day and the tournament is having a break as it coming to the double matches.

Ruby, along with Yang and Blake, are meeting Ryan. The combat teacher of Leporian Academy agreed to meet with Ruby and her friends the next day. Weiss is not with them as she is catching up with her sister.

"There's no point in stopping her, Yang. From the looks of things, Ruby hasn't seen this person for a long time. It's natural to be excited." Blake explained, keeping her distance away from Yang as Zwei is currently walking next to the golden hair girl.

"Maybe your right." Yang said as she smiled slightly at her little sister who was looking around.

"Where is he? Where is he?" Ruby muttered as she whipped her head around.

"Hehehe. You'll break that neck of yours if you carry on whipping it around." A voice said, causing team R(W)BY and Zwie to turn around to see a smiling Ryan.

"Teacher! Its so good to see!" Ruby exclaimed as she suddenly ran up to Ryan and hug him.

"Its good to see you as well...little cub." Ryan said whilst smirking causing Ruby to pout as she released Ryan.

"I'm not a little cub." Ruby muttered, causing Ryan to chuckle. Yang and Blake glanced at each other with confuse look on their faces.

"So what are doing here, Teacher?" Ruby asked, causing Ryan to smile. "To see the tournament of course. Its not the same if you watch it from home." Ryan explained, causing Ruby to nod her head.

"Although I was shock to see that your attending Beacon two years early then you should have." Ryan said, causing Ruby to smile.

"Well. I kind of impressed Professor Ozpin when I prevented a robbery in Vale." Ruby explained, causing Ryan to become surprise slightly.

"I hope that you didn't got hurt whilst preventing a robbery. But congratulations on entering Beacon." Ryan said, ruffling Ruby's hair.

"So...care to introduce this person to us, Rubes?" Yang asked with a questioning look on her face. Ruby turned around to her teammate and clear her throat.

"Right. Yang, Blake. I would like you to meet Ryan Leon, my combat teacher back at Leporian Academy." Ruby introduce her teammates to Ryan.

Yang and Blake become surprise at this, especially Yang.

"Teacher. I would like you to meet two of my teammates. Blake Belladona and Yang Xio Long...and Zwie." Ruby said, saying that the last part sheepishly as Zwie barked at her, causing the other two to laugh slightly.

"Well, it good to meet you two. I'm sorry if Ruby been a problem to handle. She was like that when she was child." Ryan said, causing Blake and Yang to smirk whilst Ruby began to blush.

"Teacheeer." Ruby whined whilst hitting Ryan lightly, causing Blake and Yang to start laughing.

"Hehehe. Sorry." Ryan said whilst chuckling. However, it was then that Ryan realized something.

"Where's the fourth member of your team?" Ryan asked, causing Ruby to scratch the back of her head.

"Well. Weiss wanted to catch up with her older sister, Winter." Ruby explained, causing Ryan to nod his head.

"Mr Leon." Yang said as the golden hair girl walked up to Ryan.

"Is there something wrong, Miss Xio Long?" Ryan asked with a questioning look on his face.

"I would like to thank you for teaching my sister on how to be a great sword wielder." Yang replied whilst shaking Ryan's hand.

"Well, it was mostly Kagura who taught Ruby. I just help Ruby how to wield shield...?" Ryan said before realizing what Yang just said.

"Sister?" Ryan asked whilst gaining a confused look on his face.

"But I thought that...you said that your family died, Ruby?" Ryan said confusedly as he turned his head to look at Ruby who was scratching the back of her nervously.

"Well...I found out that my entire family is alive." Ruby replied nervously. This made Ryan to smile widely.

"Congratulations, Ruby. That must be a shock to you and your family." Ryan said, causing Ruby and Yang to nod their heads.

"It was. Especially when we reunited with Ruby at her "gravestone"." Yang explained, causing Ryan and Blake to become surprise.

"Gravestone?" Blake asked, causing Ruby, Yang, Ryan and Zwie to look at her.

"Yeah. We thought that Ruby died so we created a gravestone for her." Yang explained, causing Blake to nod her head in understatement.

"What's written on your "gravestone" Ruby?" Ryan asked, becoming interested.

"My "gravestone" had the words "Ruby Rose. The last rose of summer." on it." Ruby replied, causing Ryan to become confuse slightly.

"Summer?" Ryan asked confusedly. "Summer is Ruby's Mum's name." Yang explained, causing Ryan to raise a eye-brow in confusion.

"We're half sisters. Same dad, different mums." Yang explained, knowing what's going on in Ryan's mind.

"That would explain why you look completely different from each other." Ryan said, causing both Ruby and Yang to giggle and Blake to smile.

"So what about your Uncle? Did you meet him as you planned?" Ryan asked, causing Ruby to nod her head.

"YeP. And in fact, you already met him." Ruby said, causing Ryan to blink a few times.

"Have I?" Ryan asked in a surprise tone of voice.

"He was the guy who was in that fight you stopped." Blake said, causing Ryan gain a wide eyed.

"He's your uncle?!" Ryan exclaimed, causing team R(W)BY to laugh.

"Yes. I am their uncle." A voice replied, causing team R(W)BY, Zwei and Ryan to turn their heads to see Qrow Branwen.

"Hi, Uncle Qrow. Did you got into trouble." Yang asked whilst waving.

"Nah. Everything's fine. Sorry if I didn't got the time to speak with the both of you." Qrow said to Ruby and Yang, who shrugged their shoulders.

"It's okay, Uncle. I had some catching up to do anyway." Ruby said, causing Qrow to turn his attention towards Ryan.

"So your the one who taught Ruby when she lived with Miss Luna?" Qrow asked, causing Ryan to nod his slightly.

"Well. I did help Kagura to raise Ruby as well." Ryan explained, starting to become nervous under Qrow's gaze.

After a few seconds, Qrow began to smile.

"Thanks for looking after, Ruby. Things were hard when we presumed Ruby to be dead." Qrow said, causing Ryan to rub the back of his head.

"Yeah. No problem." Ryan said, smiling sheepishly.

"And thank you for teaching Ruby on how to fight." Qrow added.

"Yeah. Rubes kicked Qrow's butt when they sparred." Yang said, causing Ryan to stare at Yang.

"Is this true?" Ryan asked as he looked over to Ruby who nodded her head. The blue eye teacher went silent before beginning to laugh.

"Wow. I never thought you would be able to beat a fully trained Hunter, Ruby. You have been trained very well." Ryan said as he continued to laugh.

"I'm starting to hate you." Qrow muttered, however a small smile was on his face.

"I think that we still have the video if you want to see it, Mr Leon." Yang said as a smile on her.

"Thank you. I would like to see that later." Ryan said as Qrow groaned.

"Today's not my day, is it?" Qrow muttered to himself.

"NoPe." Ruby replied with a wide smile on her face.

"Thanks for the encouragement, petal." Qrow said, as he looked at his niece.

"Your welcome." Ruby said cheerfully.

"Say Ruby." Ryan said, causing Ruby to look at the combat teacher.

"Why don't we have a small spar. I would like to see myself how much you have grown." Ryan said, causing Ruby to become excited.

"Sure thing!" Ruby said in a excited tone of voice, before dashing off, leaving rose petals behind. Ryan started to chuckle lightly.

"I've forgotten how little cub gets excited when me or Kagura mention sparring." Ryan said, causing Qrow to turn his head towards Ryan with a raise eye-brow.

"Little cub?" Qrow asked, causing Ryan to nod his head.

"That's right. Little cub is a nick name that I called Ruby. Didn't she mention that Kagura is a tiger Faunus?" Ryan asked, causing Qrow to nod his head.

"She did actually. Little cub, heh?" Qrow said with a thoughtful expression on his face.


After collecting Calamity Rose from her locker, Ruby and Ryan are facing each other in the courtyard.

"I wonder who will win?" Blake asked with a interested look on her face.

"I bet it will be Ruby." Yang replied, causing Qrow to hum slightly.

"Maybe. But things could turn out differently." Qrow explained, causing Yang to shrug her shoulders.

"Hey guys." A voice called, causing Blake, Yang, Qrow and Zwie to turn their heads to see Weiss and Winter approaching them. Zwie barked, causing Weiss's face to lit up.

"Aww. Did you miss me, did you miss. Of course you did." Wiess said in a happy tone of voice as she scoop Zwie into her arms.

Winter looked at her younger sister with a raised eye-brow. However, when she saw Qrow, she began to scowl.

"Hello, Qrow. Have you sober up since last night?" Winter asked, causing Qrow to smirk slightly.

"Maybe, Ice queen." Qrow replied before looking over at Weiss who was currently tickling Zwei, missing the glare that Winter is giving him.

"Yeah. Weiss completely falling in love with Zwie." Yang explained, causing Qrow and Winter to start blinking.

"...Well. At least my little sister made friends..." Winter said awkwardly.

"Please don't let your sister steal Zwie. He's a family pet." Qrow explained, causing Winter to shrug her shoulders.

"Maybe, maybe not." Winter replied, causing Qrow to scowl at her.

"Hello Wiess. You just in time." Blake said, causing the heiress to look up from tickling Zwie.

"In time for what?" Wiess asked with a questioning look on her face.

"Ruby is going to fight her teacher." Blake replied, causing Weiss to become wide eyed as she turn her attention towards the silver eye girl and her the combat instructor.

"This will be interesting." Weiss said as she sat down next to Blake, causing the cat Faunus to become tense as Zwie stared at her.

"...Don't look at me." Blake muttered, trying her best to stay away from Zwie. Yang laughed at this before focusing her attention towards Ruby and Ryan as well.

"Well then, Ruby. Are you ready?" Ryan asked as he got ready.

"You bet, Teacher!" Ruby replied, feeling excited, causing Ryan to chuckle slightly.

"That's good to hear. But be prepared, I won't go easy on you." Ryan explained, causing Ruby to nod her head.

"That's fine by me." Ruby said, causing Ryan to nod his head.

Ruby got Calamity Rose at the ready.

"Well. Ready...Go!" Ryan shouted before suddenly dashing towards Ruby whilst drawing his sword. Ruby raised Calamity Rose just in time to block the attack.

However, the impact caused Ruby to stumble backwards.

"Teacher's absolutely serious about this fight." Ruby thought as he draw Rose's Hope from the shield.

"Well...So am I." Ruby thought again before swinging her blade at Ryan.


And there we have! I bet everyone is surprise with the appearance of Ryan Leon (He made a appearance in chapter two by the way). By the way, the raven that was observing Qrow and Winter in the courtyard is Raven in her bird form (it's confirmed on RWBY wiki, images). Please review and until next time everyone.

The Observer: Thanks for the compliment.

ReaperStride: You need to me more confident in those awkward moments.
