Rwby graduation: Blake's Invasion of Mistral

A/n: hey guys this is the next part of the First Arc of Rwby Graduation this is Blake's Invasion now side note the nextchapters may be inconsistent/ underwhelming finalies seeing as I'm not able to stretch well planned 10,000 word chapter's and be able to consistently crank them out at a time as fast with school work going on, but now Onto the battle, the invasion of Anima from Blake!

New change of dialogue sorry I'm going through a phase with dialogue once I get it. Straightened out I may go back and fix the rest of the chapter's (probably have a chapter dedicated to this before the prologue with extended details on the story,

(Key for now!)

"Earpiece chatter"

-chapter start-

[Mistral Southern Fjords: same point as Ruby's invasion,]

(Blake's Flotilla)

The contenant of Anima looked over and Saw Blake's fleet and began to fire upon them with everyone they could, with the costal defensive, which was 2 AA guns and a few mortars.

Blake Belladonna stood on the deck of the front ship looking to the ground, and saw the troops ready for an attack, "Brace for impact!" Blake yelled as the gun implacemnts opens fire on the fleet, as Blake ran to the others, "what do we do?" One of the Fanuas asked. Blake looked over. "Yang, get suited up, Whitley inform the captain's of the other ship to head down the west end and see if you can find a beach to land on and circle around Yang and I will draw there fire." Blake said as she and Yang walked over to there Mechs and activated there startup sequences.

Both throught the visors they look to each other and nod it was time for battle,

(Mistral southern Fjords, military base)

The Morters fires a constant barrage as the commander shouted orders "keep firing!" He yelled as the ships got closer and closer, finally one of the mortars hit directly creating a ringing,

(Blake's fleet ship under deck)

knowing it was now or never Blake kicked the side of the boat and began the invasion. Walking out alone into the waters, the chests of the mechs sticking out.

[Back On Remnant: Fjords of Mistral: ]

Blake and Yang got to dry land and panted looking around they saw the gun to there right firing back they saw the fleet was preforming a large flanking manuver to stay out of range of the AA guns and land onto to start the invasion but that would take to long and the other side was another not firing, As Blake looked over using her suits tech for a drone she looked and saw the operator asleep deciding to count her blessings she shifted her target and commucated with Yang, one that was just up the hill not firing Yang nodded and at the same time they charged up the hill.

(Anti-Air outpost)

At the Gun was a Mistral conscript, taking a nap. He had missed the boats and there fore didn't fire upon Blake and Yang approaching, howver he did hear there stepping, as he looked up and saw the two ton mechs over him, he screamed but Yang grabbed him and crushed him to death in her hands. "Yang can you target the other AA gun?" Blake asked not liking the fact her partner killed a man in cold blood but right now she had other things to worry about,

( The dragon)

Yang looked over to where Blake was pointing to and looked past the target redical. But couldn't get a lock

(Outside)

"Negative its to far." Yang said. "Alright then." Blake nodded as she hopped out and manned the AA gun, targeting the other gun and opened Fire.

(AA gunnmount)

The other gun mount was awake and did see the fleet trying to flank around and open fire, however they were to far away, and couldn't hit them missing Blake and Yang sneak up on him until it was too late as he realized he was getting shot at before a dust round hit him in the head and the other blew up the power supply sending the Gun sky high, Blake nodded and hopped out of the gun before remounting, her Mech, "Let's go Yang." Blake said "yea sure hold on." Yang said as she ripped the turret off and flung it down below. Into the water, Blake rolled her eyes. "That was a waste." Blake said. " yea...but it was fun." She said as they walked down, Blake turned around and shot the dust bank, so it wouldn't be used against them later, "show off." Yang said, Blake rolled her eyes at her partners quip,

(The rest of the Navy)

After the Morters were taken care of, they stormed the landings and regrouped with there two head commanders Yang and Blake, Qrow in the Eyes of the sky walked up "so you two what do we do?" He asked. Blake looked over "Yang I want you and Your uncle to push up past the base with Illia, I will move with my platoon and strike at the missle depo, and meet up with you later, Whitney has headed back to get resupplied and send more assets to us." Blake said, Yang nodded, as did Qrow and Illia, as they headed out, Blake looked over to the base, and nodded to The Mountain Rose, who vanished into the brush.

(Missle Missle base* same one Hazel attacked)

After the new Mistralian garrison got set up, and the guards got into there posts they set in for there nighttime routine 2/3's staff asleep as the other 1/3 looks over the base, on top of the newly wooden tower constructed looking over the southwest side stood 2 guards ready for anything, both Mistrailan one Fanuas by wolf with ears. The other one human, "hey..." the wolf said "yea..." the other guard asked. "Do you ever wonder...well do you ever wonder why were- Augh!" Suddenly from the roof Blake fell down on them killing them quickly with a jab to sever there spine. As she took the spotlight that was pointing to the left flank and draggged it over to the right allowing the group of raiders coming from Said section, unnoticed, when they came to the gate as they cut there way in, Blake looked down and noticed two guards on the bottom of the ladder. Blake shifted her chain Scythe and flung it down acting as a rope dart impaling a guy in the neck and kicking him off his feet, the other guard looked up shocked "what the!?" He cried as another Fanuas assassin came in and cut him down. The assassins looked to Blake who nodded as they vanished, and went to sack the rest of the base, starting from the south west corner they kicked the outer walls and kept the spotlights off spots where addsional troops would sneak in,

(Closed Curent TeleVision outpost* the original CCTV)

The camrea guard rested in his room looking at the vast network of cameras that peppered the layout of the Base he took a nice swig of coffee and sighed, "Black just how I like it" he said the guard's name was Tod*, Tod Bewachen he was apart of the Mistral defense force for over 3 years after the assult withnthe wite fang on Haven Academy, so he joined he liked it here it was peaceful he didn't have a lot to do And with one camera covered by 2 others each with a motion sensor there was no way anything could get past them well inside the base the outside was to out to the open and so they only cover the inside,

However he didn't get so high on his job because he slouched around. No, he was captian of the night guard and for good reason he had a job to do, "all Positions call out." He said, "position 1-clear." Outpost tower one said, "position 2- clear," the next one said allowing the tension built up in his shoulders to be released, until. "position 3, I think I'm seeing some fighting on the south wall going to investigate." He said when the captian responded, "negative hold your post." He said as he went down to position 5 the one where the incident was coming from, "position 5- what's your signal?" He asked..." no response... "position 5 respond..." he said "position 3 you are clear to advance do you copy?" He asked... the Line was dead, "position 3!" He said as he cycled a looked at the cameras and found the guards at the outpost tower 3 one of the few actually attacked to the base handing by there entrails slouched over, "S-Shit!" The captian gasped as he fell out of his chair. Spilling his coffee. He cycled the rest of the cameras and set the alarm off...but nothing went. He cycled the camreas around the base and found the alarms were cut. He had no signal...no alarm...nothing...they were alone. He looked through the camrea to see if he could awaken the rest of the 2/3's of the Staff manually but as he looked to the bunks, and was horrified at the sight of the symboled of death, a Signal of the terror White fang in blood, and underneath it read, Libertatem aut mori, which was Olden script for Liberty or death.

Service to say the Guard Captain was scared Shitless, but he knew that, in fact he studied psychology, and these assassins were definitely sticking to psychological warfare. But he would play there game...ohh he would play...and he'd win. He started to look around the room to see where or not the camreas were active he found himself with 10 camreas out of the total in. The facility, he had every room around his office covered, marking 3, the hallway that connected his office 4, the missle depo 5, the café 6, the new AK-200 Mobile command post 7, the front door, 8, and two on the central tower, one facing the entry way outside and one following the spotlight,

Tod was prepared, he smiled, as he reached under his table and pulled out his badass neon color public service vest. He took his standard issue revolver and loaded it full with 5 rounds and filled the quick loaders as well, he looked behind him down the hallway to make sure no one was coming and shut the door, before locking it, now it was only wood so it would never hold but it would do, after barricading the door with a shelf, he also found 2 more escape paths through the ceiling as well as the floor, he looked over and found from the spotlight a line of assassins coming in, but he ingnored it, 'it was just psychological warfare.' He thought, as he sat down and drank his cup, 'eventually the group would be gone and he would be able to clean up the mess.' He thought,

Suddenly he heard a motion sensor get triggered, 'well they probably entered one of the area...' he thought but then asked 'but which?' As he leaned in and cycled the camreas and froze, they were in the missle Depo. And just rigged a bomb. He looked over and found he had communication with that room, he slammed down on the speaker.

(Missle depo)

"What the hell do you think your doing!?" He asked as the assassins turned to the Intercom and said, "we are ensuring you do not use these on the population again." He said "By blowing them up!?" He asked, "by disposing of them, besides the explosion wouldn't hurt you in there iron cell." The demolishes scoffed as she was handed a briefcase, and set it down, "Do you realize what is going to happen when those go off!?" He asked The Fanuas smiled "there going to blow this facility and all heavy weapons on the south coast of Anima sky high!" She said "yes! But do you understand how much damage that will put on the ecosystem!?" He asked, "you should've thought about that before you chose to push the button to launch it on Menganserie." The Fanuas Said, and nodded to the other members who got on the radio, "the device is primed repeat the device is primed!" He said, "listen to me...if you don't turn that device off right this second, I will..." he said, the domolision team scoffed "oh really How?" She said, there was no response, from him, the Fanuas scoffed "goodredince." She said, as a human came up, " is number 2 set up?" She asked "yes once the light of Monty hits the sensor, the system will activate, and the cleansing light will hit all things and be blessed with our lord. Monty Oum! He said as everyone held there hands out like a T and said "Populus tectumque per lux, et dandum Vita, populus tectumque per tenebris, et dandum mortem." (T: People sheltered by light, will be given life, people sheltered by Darkness will receive death.) soon they looked across eachother and said "bless the creator, bless Mongome! (T: Monty Oum)

(Blake)

Blake stood in on the roof of the base and looked over the empty field it was sad the cause of so much death was her protecting her home, she asked for the two brothers there blessing in giving those who perished, a home with them and the gift guidance from the gods. "Madam Belladonna, we got a problem," Blake sighed a tad disappointed that her prayer was intrupted but she was done anyways. "Speak." She said, "there's one group not accounted for among those who joined us. Group 4-34 is missing." The guy said As Blake scanned the area and indeed looked to see, raider 1&2, 3 was by the front door, and 5 was by the rear with the sick and injured both raiders and defenders, but no Group 4-3...why the fuck did Blake allow them to be named that anyway? Blake called it to the commander about that. "Well apparently when I asked they got defensive, saying I wouldn't understand, it sounded like a religious profit or some Sect." The guy said, Blake huffed.

After the Grimm wars the Huntsmen officially came out and told about Salem and the two brothers (although kept the maidens a secret*) as they Huntsmen officially became a religious group dedicating to the Two brothers, and there goal, with Ozpin and the commanders acting as voices of the gods, (which Flood has taken over that mantle.) However the idea of the Huntsmen becoming a religious base didn't work well with others seeing as some people already had a religion and didn't want to give it up, so Beacon relented still needing able warriors saying they would respect there beliefs and give them the ability to Become Huntsmen without switching religions just learning the history, the aspect of the Grimm, the Two brothers story, the link to the primordial's, however this was just a way to keep the crowds down even Ozpin knew this wouldn't hold forever, and apparently this war just broke the first strand of peice.

"Who saw them last?" Blake asked "I beleaved group 5." He said as Blake jumped down. After talking she found out that yes they did go into the base, and they did overheard something about The Light of Oum." Blake sighed and face palmed annoyed, "The light of Oum, was a religious Sect from the branch of the monotheistic Religion of Oumuism the lord and creator of the world Remnant: Monty Oum, they sprung up before kingdoms, and were the first writing source being those who wrote down the legend's of the Silver Eye Warriors, is is Said that famous knights of this religion were Silver Eye warriors, in one detail or another, most just toss it up as propaganda, the unfortunate thing was, these guys spread like wild fire, no one knew where they started out in but, it was said that after the crossing of the dead lands the lord and savior was killed protecting a man, and gave him guidance, and knowledge, choice and freedom, that man would eventually become the first king of Vale, which is where it got its name, Vale in Ancient script meant Gods City or Golden City, despite numerous clames saying the passage was torn and while the other peice was found the actual word wasn't even called Vale it was Valelie meaning Choice... not golden city, but the church of Oum didn't care and went about its business. As did everyone else.

Blake was tired of theses folks causing havoc they were just like the white fang when Serria Kahn was running it, Rallies amd riots, about joining the church! It was annoying as fuck, but she sighed, Both Ozpin and Ruby didn't want to start a war with them, so she didn't. But this wasn't the actual church of oum if she was right 3-43 was a religious symbol about the savor Oum, the exact time of death, if this was the case then this wasn't a church ordeal it was an extremist ordeal, and one that could cause hundreds of lives at risk,

(The Guard Captian)

After getting off the intercom of the group in the Missle depo he sighed, "Alright then," he said as he cracked his knuckles and took out his Scroll, and put it into the port, and activated the system of RC Battle bot,

(AK-200 storage unit)

The Storage unit holding the AK-200's in the back had a computer that was used to control the adroids as a remote portable hub, seeing as massive broadband signals had a shocking tendency to be highjacked (go figure) as the Robots got powered up they Kicked down the door to there storage device,

( Guard Room)

After his scroll was able fully synchronized to the AK-200 mainframe, and using the resources he had the entirety of the scroll turned into a top down RTS game. Even better with the new camrea mode he was able to take a first person ability of a robot and move it by his own meaning he could direct command on the field as a commander.

The first thing he did was consolidate his forces and round them up, counting them he had 5 squads of 10 Knights, keeping one small segment of 5 to the base to cover there retreat, or in this case the broadcast center, he also linked it to his quick link of command so if it was under attack he could quickly cycle to one of units holding it and take command, the next thing he did was send the other segment of 5 up to guard his quarters, ranking them as the royal guards. They would take a little while to get to him so for the meantime he went to move the remaining troops to shut off the bomb.

The missle depo had 2 main ways in, the missle silo and the entry from the inground bunker, it was most likely they would use the missle silo to escape and because he was almost positive that the rest of the force was outside the Tod ordered the AK's to march down in the inground bunker. Well he sent one squad in he wasn't going to force an all in assult until he knew exactly what was going to happen, the other 3 were going to cut open the containers of additional troops (yes they had more) and connect them to his already bolstering army. Thus Tod perhaps egotistically considered himself a warlord. And prepared for his campaign.

(Blake)

While this was going on Blake Belladonna had breached the fort and started to hunt for the rouge 4th division which she beleaved to be Extremeists. She just had to gather proof, and so the hunt began,

As she entered the entry way and slithered from shadow to shadow she heard a loud clunking noice. Getting louder and louder, fearful for an incounter she hid in the most ironic place an Air Duct as they got closer and closer Blake recognized them, Ak-200's marching down in two rows of 5. Blake narrowed her eyes she was getting severed flashbacks to her last train heist with Adam. After they past Blake climbed down from the air duct and scoffed, "AI for being so advanced they're so easy to trick." She muttered and she snuck off.

(Tod)

On the other hand that's what Tod wanted Blake to beleaved he saw the sensors and they registered Blake as soon if not sooner than Blake did with echo location, ( yes they have that as well these aren't ironwoods models after all) he just superficially ordered them to keep going to ensure the thought in her mind they were the ones she was use to. And also Because he knew he would lose such an encounter with Blake Belladonna, however in doing so of passing up the group Tod was able to secure the first main objective any additional reinforcement's from breaching the primiter.

(Blake)

Countuning to sneak past the robot security Blake got to the end of the hallway where the missle depo was, already the advance scout of Tod was in the area but he noticed Blake and wanted to see how it played out as he activated the rooms audio recording,

(Missle depo)

The Fanuas bomber was tinkering with the bomb "Now I just have to time it and...Blake." She said looked up, Blake Belladonna dropped from the ceiling. "Or*" Blake said (the French name for gold go figure) once she stepped out of the shadows the remains of the 4-34 pointed there weapons at Blake, "how did I know you would be here?" She asked "probably because you knew we couldn't resist such a tempting target, and you would be fully right," Or said, "a pity, I actually hoped This battle would avoid unnecessary bloodshed." Blake said, Or scoffed, "there no such thing as a war without unnecessary bloodshed." Or argued, "I beg to differ." Blake said as Or turned "oh I bet you would!" She nearly hissed, and ordered her guard to lower her arms. " why don't you let us go Blake, pretend you never saw us." She said, "Because doing so would threaten the sovereignty of my loyalty to the Rose Army, By letting you people walk away I open a gate to allow hundreds to follow! Your deeds are done!" Blake said, "why can't we just get along we're fighting for the same thing!" Or argued, "for now...but once Councilism falls, and your Church of Oum embarks on the next "great" crusades, it going to march straight into the Rose Army. And I cannot have that." Blake said, "you Damn pagans, always fighting for your tree hugging self happiness, and love conquers all." Or said, "no...the brother gods are more than that, and unlike your Oum there real...I've seen them there more than anything your church has made up." Blake said " DO NOT SPEAK OUR LORDS NAME IN VAIN!" Or yelled, "Name one physical atrubute he caused to make envoke your faith a reality!" Blake argued, "The creating of Remnant!" Or yelled, Blake laughed "that, was Salem...or more realistically that was Matrum, a primordial! who is the Mother of the brother gods! You know what why are we having this argument it clear your extremist! It's clear you won't change your beliefs!" Blake said, "it's because your beliefs are WRONG!" Or yelled in rage, as Blake looked over in pity, "...and that is why you cannot leave...I will do what I must..." she said as she slowly took her weapons off her back when Or turned around "no...you will do, what you Think you have to do." She said as she spun around and pulled her pistol on blake and fired 3 time. 2 of the shots blake cut apart harmlessly, while the third one flew past this gave the instance in replay that the bullet caused the door to explode when in actuality, Tod placed a breaching charge there, and went off, allow the AK-200 units to breach, in an instance the guards by the door were gunned down as the battle of loose alliances began, Blake and the AK-200's and the 4-34 terrorists,

Blake charged at Or who parried blake with with her quill like extendable nails, firing them at Blake like a machine gun halting her advance as Or pulled back, allowing Blake move to advance, trying to flank around, one of Or's guards saw thick and tried to stop Blake but using her semblance she vanished around him pulled the rope of her weapons around his neck and choaked him out. Before refollowing Or.

As Blake caught up to her Blake lunged preparing to make the final blow only for Or to turn around send Blake back on the ground as she looked up to see a AK-200 above her, and was surprised when he actually helped her up, "why?" She asked, "Because contrary to my beliefs I don't what those Missle's going off!" The Knight in control of Tod pointed to the Detonator, counting down.

Or looked over to the remaing troops and yelled, "Secure the device!" She yelled as one of the few guards in the area lunged, the AK-200 took action and turned and put a bullet in his heart. Killing him instantly. "No!" Or yelled, as she looked around to see the group of 5 troops of here surrounded by an army. "Make no mistake Belladonna this is not the end of this!" Or yelled as she threw a flashbang on the ground and escaped, due to her sensitive eyes Blake passed out from the optic overload,

When Blake came to she looked around to see a skirmish of the AK-200's fighting her forces the Mountain Rose as soon as reality began to reinsert into itself Blake stood up, "No Stop!" She yelled as one of the walls next to Blake shattered to reveal the HAP-suit The Dragon Roaring enraged "FOR THE ROSE ARMY!" Yang yelled as the rest of the Roses Flare roared, "Yang stop!" Blake yelled making her partner paused "huh?" She asked as she looked around, and saw Blake crying,

"Blake what's wrong?" She asked, "why are you attack these people?" She asked as Yang opened her hatch from The Dragon and hopped down, "well they hurt you didn't they?" She asked, "no Yang they helped me, there was a darker threat looming over and I was knocked out after I came to I was going to issue peace talks." She said. "Oh shoot...well sorry for my gun-ho, I got a call from your Force That you were missing and assumed the worst as did Illia and Qrow." Yang said, Blake scoffed, "don't you know it's going to take more than that to kill me off?" Blake asked Smiling weakly, Yang huffed, "I don't know kitty kat." Yang said pushing her back lightly "So are we not fighting anymore?" Tod asked Yang turned around. "Depends...are you willing to become a Vassle to The Rose Army?" Qrow asked appearing from thin air. "So long as my religious beliefs aren't forced, yea." He said Qrow, Blake, and Yang nodded they just gained one fine ally, in the form of Warlord Tod Bewachen the first Vassle of the Rose Army's conquest of Anima,

And with that the Menganserie Home Army countuned it march how protected in the rear by the Warlord Tod Bewachen.

(Haven acadmy)

"Gah!" Ash Grey yelled as his force of troops was countered by the Rose Army again, now he had 2marching armies on him, one from the west and one from the south, he couldn't content to this he needed to do something, looking over he saw as the previous Headmaster River Tan having shock therapy, he sighed as he opened the door to his office.

(River Tan's cell)

The door opened as Headmaster Ash Grey stepped inside, "I've you learned your lesson bitch?" He asked, River Tan coughed "yes...oh yes please just let me go..." she said. As she tried to pull away, "nu nu nu not just yet...we have to make sure..." he said as he moved to the bed she was clamped to, "oh please nooooo..." she moaned as she started to cry, Ash Grey ingnored her as she turned on the voltage to the highest setting, as she flaired around helpless ply screaming.

After a full minute of agonizing torture Ash finally turned the machine off, and unhooked the clamps making her fall to the ground. She coughed as she was covered in a tower to keep herself decent, "put your clothes back on whore, and come to my office." He said when he walked away,

[ 30 minutes later]

Ash grey grumbled in disappointment as River Tan, humbled into his office, he scoffed, "Alright here the thing I want you, to take an contingent and march down to stop the halt of the Menganserie Home Army from creeping deeper Into Anima, Understood." He said, River Tan nodded, "good...your troops are in the hanger you will be dropped south by Air patrols good luck." He Said as River walked off.

As River got to the hanger she relized that all but her second in command was a robot, and not even that she didn't even have control of the army, that was the commanders job, She this didn't mean she would give up, no she would ensure this assult would fail, she would have to as the only means to escape. And so she boarded the Air ship and flew off to the souther borders of Anima to battle The Menganserie Home Army.

(Blake)

After heading back on the road to move north to get in position for Mistral Invasion, by the time they left they found it was nearly Dawn. "Oh my god." Blake sighed slouching over bags under her eyes. Making Qrow and Yang look back, and then back to eachother, "I mean we did get a nights rest, while she was active all night," he said, "yea we should set up camp." Yang said, however Blake pushed past, "don't worry I'm fine, we need to countune anyways. If we slow down we won't reach the town in time." She said as Yang, Qrow and even Ilia shaired a look but countuned to follow Blake as no one shaired a complaint. After a long travel it was clear the effort that Blake was reaching her limit, and everyone unanimously decided to settle down for lunch, and eventually the day, "this is a good stopping point anyway, the next quarter of a mile is all rocky terrain with no stopping points and you are in no way able to pull that kinda hike," Qrow Said looking to the Exausted Blake who just nodded numbly, and fell asleep.

The mid afternoon followed quite presently, however it wouldn't last as soon they would come underfire.

( Mistral Air patrol fleet)

[)-BMG- Metallica Master of puppets Instremental, (]

River Tan and the air fleet flew over the south side of Anima and watched River was no fool she knew the first action of traitorism occoured sje whould be shot dead. By the commander, she had to play 8t carefully, as she looked down to her old kingdom, and a sad sight to see seeing as the once thriving villages were cut down into military factories or training facilities, "were coming across the mountains to the last ping of the Menganserie Home Army is get ready!" The Commander Said as the AK units loaded there guns, and pointed down, they stood at the peaks of the mountains. As the AK-200's jumped off, and slid down the mountains not only creating a rockslide but also getting down there faster,

[) End Master of Puppiets BMG(]

The battle that to be known officially as the Rose rally was about to begin, one of the battles they solidified Blake Belladonna into the pathieon of myths of the up and coming Rose Alliance.

[)- Play BMG- meatloaf: home by now/ no matter what(]

(*heavy organ play)

The AK-200's slid down to the ground and started to open fire, as more and more swarmed down as they lit tenets on fire causing humans and Fanuas to burn to death and those who escaped were shot in the back. Both Yang And Qrow were trying to rally members to fight. "Cloak of the Rose defend the fallen!" Qrow yelled as he swung at the massive horde, as He nodded to Yang who ran out, Qrow turned back and was sent back from a blast from the commander, as he approached Yang barreled out of the left flank with the Dragon roaring and destroyed a good chunk of the force down. Allowing Qrow to scramble into the Eye of the Sky, seeing there commanders in there HAP-suits made them a lot more comfortable and started to charge, but they were unsuccessful in fully propelling the attack back as once they were in there HAP-suits the Mistral Air Force started to open fire on them, and while able to shrug off a decent amount of fire the full load of an entire fleet was too much as the Eye in the Sky broke away revealing Qrow in his bird form as he tried to take over a ship but was sent back down, seeeing there main symbol defeated the force lost all corrosion as many fled, and were gunned, down, many people, were starting to lose hope and gave up, something many of AK-200's accepted.

[* mellow voilian hum]

River Tan watched as the Menganserie Home Army lost all hope, as everything they worked for was destroyed. She shook her head as they kept on fighting even if they were in a losing, and then it happened, the Rose Army who gave up turned on there commanders. Slowing making them stop

[* play hammoc hum]

Finally everything stopped as in the Menganserie Home Army Base there was peace,

( start pre-chorus )

Everyone looked over to hear a hum comming from one of the few tents, still standing, "no matter what they tell you...no matter what they say?" The voice said Yang and Qrow looked around as the troops looked towards the sound they knew it...it was Blake...who was in no way a point to battle, seeing the troops regain some motivation The commander scowled and pointed to the tent, "Stop that music!" He said as the Knights walked towards the tent, intent on burning it down.

"I can't deny what I beleave...I can't be what I'm not...I know I'll love forever...i know no matter what..." Blake sang. As the Knights heated up there flame weapons, only for yang to start to sing, the commander turned around, "stop it." He hissed as he slapped her to shut her up as the Knights approached the tent, as the chores came on, again and the troops around the tent nodded, as the AK-200's were about to gun down the tent when suddenly they were cut down,

"What!?" The Commander asked, as he looked over and saw from the tent was Blake Belladonna, alone, singing, "I can't deny! What I beleave! I can't be what I'm not... I know I'll love forever, I know no matter what." She said

Illia closed her eyes and joined in "And I will keep you safe and strong!" As someone else joined "And sheltered from the storm!" Everyone looked around as the Menganserie Home Army was regaining confidence "no matter where's it barren." Qrow Said, " a dream is being born" the group sang In mass, as the commander looked around not knowing what to do,

(Mistral air fleet)

In the airship River Tan looked over and sighed, she knew what she had to do." As she ran to the cockpit and took control of the ship and spun it around. Making it collide into the rest of the fleet.

( Mistral)

Ash grey watched the battle from the school and saw River Tan betrayal, and sighed, 'of course...' he sighed. As he open his scroll.

( Menganserie Home Army, Base)

The commander of the attack force looked up to see the exploding ships and was starteled. With the new resolve of the Menganserie Home Army, the battle exploded off again and this time they wouldn't back down. "Illia take a squad and disable the commander!" Blake ordered. She nodded and ran off,

Blake ran to Qrow and Yang and helped them up, "ready?" She asked they nodded as they looked to there Army they amassed " FOR THE ROSE ARMY!" Blake yelled everyone roared "FOR THE ROSE!" They yelled as they sweeped around, and struck at the AK-200's hard. The commander sighed. "All forces retreat!" He said. As he tried to pull the troops back up the hill into there ships only to see the last remaining ship the one from River Tan who was out of there jumping range "land it!" He yelled in panic, River Tan smerked, as she targeted the cannons and blasted the troops off the hill, killing the commander, and ending the battle,

When river landed, Blake had been taken back into her tent to recover, "she went to talk to her but was stopped by Illia "Wait you bitch!" She yelled making River stop and turn around, "you think that we won't forgive you?" She asked River sighed, "I don't ask to be forgiven, I just ask to be heard out." She said. "Why should we trust, you?" Qrow asked siding with Illia, as he walked over with his arms crossed, "I-." River thought of a way to defend herself when from the tent, "let her in..." it was Blake. Both Qrow and Illia looked to eachother, and sighed as they allowed her to enter.

Inside the tent River noticed it was stuffed, as ALL the inured were scrammed into it, seeing as all the other tents were burned down, and now that they had the full army recovered, the mounted assult was going to be harder. Blake glaired at River. "You got some nerve comming back here, after you basically took on an islands inhabitants alone, why should we not kill you now?" Blake asked, " because I got information..." River Said, "and why couldn't we get it from someone else?" Yang asked, "Because I'm willing to give it up." River said. "You do know we will kill you afterwards." Blake said, " I Honestly hope you do, because what I've done is unforgivable, in Ash Greys eyes, and he will most likely kill me not that I care." River said, "Alright what Info do you have?" Blake asked, "Blake?" Yang asked shocked

"Well I- Arrghhhhh!" River screamed as she clutched her head as in her mind a buzzing of a swarm buzzed around her mind. As she flaired about, "Somebody help her!" Blake yelled as the nurses ran to River who fell limp. Amd checked her pulse, they shook there heads. "Damn," Blake hissed,

(Haven Acadmy)

Ash grey pulled his finger from an app showing the lifesigns of River Tan with all brain activity and pulse flatlines, and the statuses of the individual: terminated. Ash dropped his scroll on the desk and sighed, before he slammed his fist down and yelled, "FUCKER!" Another offensive failed, he looked over at the map growling he had to think of something to allow the tide of battle to shift. 'But what?' He thought. Just out of choice he zoomed out of the map of the world and looked around,

He stood up and walked around the front of his desk, and looked over he went over the factions. He could that could possibly side with him. Ruby Rose had dug into every single aspect of every single group, all because she was a Huntress! Oh yes...he could do it...he just needed to get the Council's approval! He could do it. He ran to his chair and dialed the phone.

( Council chambers)

"Ash grey is maintaining order." One of the Counciler's said, "for now but the Rose Army is slowly marching on this kingdom!" Another Said, "at this point they will surly outlast us!" The last Counciler Said. Suddenly there scroll rang with the ID of Ash Grey. One of them picked up. "You Better have a good reason for this, we're almost considering replacing you." The lead Counciler Said, " I have a proposal." He said, the three heads look to eachother,

"...go on." He Said.

( Menganserie Home Army Base)

Blake sighed as she looked at the remaing items the Army had, it wasn't enough for them to last the trip to Mistral, there food was nearly burned down, they now had 1/4th of the tents and shelters needed, they were lucky enough that the dust they had didn't go up. But that was just a small victory.

"What do we do?" Illia Said in the command tent as Qrow amd Yang looked over the table "we do our job." Blake said as she walked in, "Are you serous?" Qrow asked Blake looked over, " to them is that a problem?" She asked, "Blake we're running on fumes...no lower than that...Blake the troops are already preparing to riot." Illia said, " beleave me I'm aware, but we need to, otherwise the battle is lost. Jaune and Ruby planed this to the minute detail everything has to be in place or else it will fail.

"But Blake the troops." Yang said worried, " we will Make it... now we have the airship we can clear the cliffs within an hour instead of hiking in a day." Blake said, "but that still gives us along time to reach, Mistral we won't reach the city before our food runs out, "we will have to double time it." Blake said, everyone gasped, "Are you insane!?" They yelled. "Forcing the troops to move faster, we won't even get to the first town, before our forces revolt." Illia said, "It's what we need!" Blake said. "But we can't supply the force to go along." Illia said. "Well we have to do what is nessessary." Blake said. Illia shook her head. And walked out "you should just like Adam." As she walked off as those words left Illia, Blake's resolve crumbled there and then. 'Was she really no better? Is she only just promoting violence?' She didn't know.

Both Qrow and Yang looked at Blake, and sighed, this got a lot harder, as Yang walked out to see the troops around them divided, Unknown as to what they could do. They were stalled.

(Mistral Council chamber)

"Are you serous?" One of the councilers asked "absolutely, I'm running out of troops, I need a way for me to gather troops and amass them in an army." Ash said "and you think a "crusade" would be the best option?" He asked " seeing as it's a way to either split the Rose Army and bolster our forces. Also the fact of I can't really succeed as I am I need to boost morale as of now people are beginning to question if we are right, as Councilism now. I need something!" Ash said,

The councilers thought, "alright consider yourself the stamp of approval." The counciler Said Ash Grey bowed as he hung up, "do you think this will work as he reclaims Vale?" Another Counciler asked "if it doesn't we have a contingency." The first one, said. As the third one stood up. "I should go as I am actually a member of the church of Oum I can rally fighters to the battle." He said, the others nodded as he walked out,

( Mistral: Church of Oum)

The church of oum, had a massive surman, as the priest started to stand, and make his speech, "hello everyone!" He said as the crowd when silence, "I have a few words from our High pope Counciler Vapor has come to share a few words." He Said as the priest stepped back and allowed Counciler Vapor to take center stage, as he started to speak being from the head of the church of oum.

"Ladies and gents it has come to my attention that our way of life is at risk!" As everyone looked acutely at him, "I have seen a vision! Monty is displeased! We have allowed his home to fall into ruins! We must reclame what is his...amd doubtlby what is our!" He yelled as a few people cheered, "we Have to reclame Vale! And kick out the Bastard Pagans who have overtaken our beliefs! And daily lives! Down with the heathens!" He yelled as held his arms out into a T everyone else stood up and did the same yelling, "down with the heathens up with Lord Oum!" After the mass the pope stood at the far end, and took a list to all those who would join in his "crusade." Supringly he had a massive turnout of 1,700! A sizeable number, for one mass, he had 7 more to do before the day was done.

( outside)

The number of people who joined the mass was crazy, however not all of them were inclined with the churches beliefs, as several groups were actually, Rose Army Reserves Huntsmen , and rear guard fighters. "As the team leader of team STAR, Stream Stone, got out of mass and looked to see his firends talking, they were quite a group because, even if they didn't beleave in the brother gods they still fought with Ruby battling Salem, infact The Leader of STAR was one of the few who saw the brother gods from afar, still he remained loyal to the church, howver they were more loyal to Ruby, "Commander Sir!" The Huntsmen said saluting him, "we have got to inform Ms Rose of this development, howver She is in Mistral as of now. Someone needs to get on comms and make send them a report." He said, "but Ash Grey control's Haven acadmy. That's the main broadcast station, how do we?" The soldier asked as he followed his commanders line of sight to the Church towers broadcast tower, thought "the church..." he said everyone shook there head, "no no commander." They said "we have to have them know." He Said, "But releasing military grade info to the public channel's do you have any idea how stupid that is, by the time we got to code dialed in they will be pounding on the door!" They said the commander looked around, "Come on let's go," he said as the troops looked to see they were gaining a lot of attention, as they walked out of the square,

( into an alleyway behind a bar * same bar Qrow talked to in volume 5)

The regiment found there way there looking back to make sure they weren't followed, and started to talk, "the second in command hissed, out, "Are you crazy, there is no way we can do this!?" He Said, "do you have any other option?" He asked, no one said a word, "I thought so, now then we need to get back and convey what we have planned." He said, "you know you really shouldn't talk so loud." The bartender said leaning out of the door, making them turn, they had a stare off. "So...what are you going to do about it?" He asked. "...come inside." He Said as they followed

( bar)

Inside they sat down at the desk as the tender gave them drinks, the bar was empty, "all 4 sat together but by no means they were relaxed, they held here weapons tight, and both parties knew it. "Alright here's the deal." The tender said as he pulled out a map of the street, "the best place to stage a raid on the Church is here. This bar." He Said as they showed they were right across the street. "Here's the plan, on the day of your choice, the day before you camp here and we rest, the then the raid goes off, I heard the sputtering from the mass Ms Rose must know of this." He Said.

The four looked to eachother, "well...okay but the question I have is." Stream asked only for his teammate Rust to slam his fist in the counter, "how do we know you won't betray us?" He demanded. The bar owner smerked amd just turned around, "because I'm not just a normal tender, he said as he rolled up his left sleve and found a tattoo of Ruby's symbol on his forearm, "I'm also a deep agent for the Rose's Shadow, a secret group dedication to the performance of Ms Rose before she came into power, now my goal is to safeguard her, I'm the last, of my organization, gifted to us by the brother gods was knowledge of future events which you would play a major part in, this was my task, and the most recent member who's demises shook this whole war off...was Ozpin himself." He said. As he looked back, to see the members wide eyed, "so...what now?" They asked, "Now you have a choice you can accept my help and we can plan this raid and have a chance to succeed, or you can walk out that door, do what you want and die some hopeless deaths." The tender said

Team STAR looked to each other and finally Stream asked, "what do you have in mind?" But The tender backed off, "hey I'm the dealer, your the men of action." He said, as the four looked to each other, "Alright then, when's the last mass of Thursday, I believe im right to assume that's when the smallest amount of people will appear right?" He asked they nodded, "Alright then in that case, we act as recon someone try to find a way into where the broadcast tower is and while we rotate on that the rest will go into town and upgrade our equipment, there's no way that either the church, or possibly the police won't drop down the full might on us once we pull this off, which means after this we're going to have to scram, it's a good thing we usually sit in different sections, here's the plan, Rust, day one. Argent, day two, Tram, day three, and I will follow up on day four: if we still cannot find it we will just have to wing it we cannot delay, Understood?" He asked everyone nodded. "Alright then, what else do we got?" He asked, "well what about what happen's once we trip the alarm?" Tram asked, "unfortunately it's going to be up to us to fight our way out, now once the battle begins here are the roles. Rust you and me, front line of defense, we cannot let anyone past us, Tram is the rear guard and the and Argent will send the message." He said, everyone nodded, "well then I guess it's our job to make the message and prepare." Steam said, as the tender nodded, The group separated and began to set up.

[ four days later: D-day]

(Mistral bar)

The four Huntsmen looked to each other sitting around a table, with 4 backpacks pretending they were from a long traveled pack, the rest of the bar was packed so no one asked questions, "and so you'd think...you'd think he would be smart enough but do you know what he did?" Rust asked everyone at the table was looking at him, "he turned around, and got closer and went out to touch her hair." Rust said making everyone gasp, "oh the ONE thing you do to Yang is touch her hair." Steam Said, "yea that's like a word of law." Tram giggles as she sipped her drink, "I swear she punched like a train after the guy went flying." Rust said, " but hey how do you know this you said you weren't there." Argent asked, " I did but this came from Yang herself." Rust said, everyone cracked up, when suddenly a buzz on everyone's scroll went off, as Steam looked at the message, and closed his scroll, "I just got a ticket boys were live." He Said as he stood up and slung his backpack on everyone else did the same, "Let's go make some noise." Rust said as the Huntsmen left, leaving there wallets and identification at the table, as the Tender reached the table and collected the wallets, he sighed, 'such youth...terriable waist.' He thought,

( Team STAR)

The Huntsmen team walked across the street as the last of the people were heading out leaving only the priest to close up shop, when steam opened the door, the priest turned around, "gentleman I'm sorry I just concluded the service for today, lord oum will have to wait for you until-." He was cut off when Stream pulled out his heavy buck dagger and pointed it at him, speaking In a fake southern accent *think Ado the Apache* "ah shutup grandpa, Show us where the comucation tower is." He Said, the priest shook his head "I'm sorry but I cannot tell you." He said "ah it's okay we know where it is anyway." Steam Said as he looked over his shoulder, "take his keys and get that signal out, here." He Said as he tossed Argent the disk with the signal. As he walked past the priest, " give me the keys." He said the priest looked at him. "Who are you?" He asked looking at Argent deeply, "I'm not going to ask again." He said, leaning in, "I know you...no you-!" The priest was cut off when Argent shot him in the head. " DUDE WHAT THE HELL!?" Rust asked, "he figured me out I'm not leaving a witness!" He said, "so instead you fired a gun and alerted the police onto our intention!?" Rust argued, "EVERYONE SHUT UP SOUNDS CARRY!" Steam yelled dropping the accent, "Argent GET THAT SIGNAL OUT THERE, Rust, Tram, position 2!" He yelled as they started to barricade the entry ways to the monetary.

"All units be advises we have a case of shots fired at the oum Baptist Church on Wessex street!" The police radio roared off, "units in response! Cruiser #4 comming from the south over!"

"Cruiser #7 heading from the north over." As another came off, "cruiser # 2 heading west over," as another voice from HQ cracked up "Wait a second who has SOUTH SIDE REPEAT WHO HAS SOUTH SIDE!?" One of the officer's in cruiser 4 asked, "this is Cruiser #9 were hold up with a riot on the east side of town!" They said "crap." cruiser# 2 hissed "pay attention, HQ any information as to who the purpatrator is?" Another Officer asked, "no visual identification is confirmed, however eye witnesses state. 3 men and 1 women, with the apparent outlook of Huntsmen." HQ said "shit." One of the officers said, "Focuse this isn't the first time one has gone rouge!" The officers said, "We are so fucked!" An appparent newbie said when he was cut off "Cut the chatter were on site! HQ any support in the area?" The lead Officer said "Negative we're scrambling all we can but it will take a while for them to be on station," as the radio died the officers scrambled out "Alright boys lets show them what we're made of!" He yelled,

( inside the church)

In the first row of Pews facing the door along the main entrance of the church they crouched down, "ready?" Steam asked Rust nodded behind the wood, inside his duffel bag Steam pulled out 2 Uzis and tossed one to Rust who caught it, and loaded the clip in, as Rust looked out, "I've spotted Vehicle's 12 o clock!" Rust yelled "Argent we need that signal NOW!" Steam yelled "here they come!" Rust yelled as the confrontation kicked off, as Rust and Steam opened fire as large sprays of Lead and dust filled the air.

(Argent)

In the back of the church Argent was looking at the room #'s 207...208...220! Here." He Said as he fiddled with the key in the lock trying to open the door, unti, he got angry and kicked it in, stepping into the room, he started to set up for the broadcast, looking over his shoulder he saw Tram there watching his back, "you better go back down there with the others. I got this." He Said Tram nodded and started back down the hall,

( Rust&Steam)

Both Rust and Steam were pinned down from the hale the police were throwing at them, Rust stood up and opened fire and started to pin a few cops down which worked and broke the police line only for a heavy police van one of the first to arrive open its door to a group of fully armored SWAT The lead being a riot shielder. As those behind him pinned Rust down, " fuck we got a shield wall comming!" He yelled, "prepare for grenades!" Steam Said as Rust took out a burn crystal and Steam a Lighting, suddenly they looked to see a flashbang and smoke bomb, "Shit!" Steam yelled as he shielded himself with his aura as the blast went off,

( Tram)

Heading back into the main chamber still looking back to see if Argent was okay, she sighed and was about to breach the main chamber and provide covering fire, when suddenly the window next to her shattered as police with repel gear swung in, 3 in a row, the first one turned to her, and held up his hand, "halt-." Was the only word he got out as Tram stabbed him in the chest with her trident before running around the wall and roundkicking the guy behind him She pulled out the trident and bashed the third guy in the face with the blunt end before killing him as well. "Argent be advised the windows are breached!" She said as Argent just waved to her with his pistol Tram nodded and headed into the main chamber, Argent growled as he tried to dial in the right number for the signal, finally he got it. He inserted the scroll with the message and sent it broadbanding in Morse code, ['agents of The Rose, the church of oum is preparing a crusade to retake the capital all forces be alert...message repeats]

(Church of oum,)

Steam and Rust opened there eyes thee adrenaline skyrocketed as they felt the bullets wiz over them Rust looked over to steam who nodded, as They counted down Rust stood up and opened fire counting the opposition, before ducking down, " the shielder is staying by the door so we're got there." He said. "Well let's get rid of the pest." He Said as he looked to his dust crystal. And suddenly it began to glow, Rust dropped his Uzi as Steam tossed the crystal Steam switched to a median rifle and aimed at the riot shielder's legs, popping him, the guy screamed Rust stood up and chucked the crystal as hard as he could which hit the back wall and landed by his feet, he looked down at the shot and noticed the crystal, "oh fuc-!" The crystal blew up blasting some of the Stone work off, creating a haze allowing the Two to open fire and retreat.

At the same time, Tram ran out screaming with two machine guns covering them as they moved into a rear position, and got down, Still firing, Tram joined the two, and crouched down handing a gun to Steam who reloaded it with another clip, "Argent is setting up the signal, we should get it out right." Tram stopped as her scroll got a message with started to beep the Morse code. "Alright it's Sending." She said, "now we just have to hold the line." Steam Said as he stood up and charged forward, yelling, Rust sighed, "May Brothers guide us." He said withnhisneyes closed. He opened them and saw Tram looking over at him, "what?" He asked, "Now you switch religions!?" She asked while the pews infront of her was getting shredded up by gun fire, infront of them Steam was running from side to side opening fire withnwhat ever moved. "Well it's not like lord oum's gonna want us back anytime soon!" Rust yelled over the gunfire, Tram thought about it before saying, "good point!" She said as the two stood up and opened fire.

Steam who was in the middle turned around as the two started to fire, which unfortunately allowed an officer to shoot him in the shoulder throwing him to the ground in shock, "fuck!" He bit off as he held down the trigger and crawled his way back,

"What happened?" Rust asked, "as Steam pulled his head covered in blood away, "just a lucky shot, I think I got him." Steam Said, only to hear from outside " I GOT ONE OF THEM! I GOT ONE OF THEM!" Steam rolled his head back as the police cheered, "great." He said, "welp." Tram Said as she activated her goggles to allow her to see past the smoke and took out a long rifle and fired cracking a bullet right in the guy's forehead, killing him endignthe cheered outside instantly. "There." She said as she ducked down and the firefight countuned, "now we just wait until the Rose Army receives the signal.

(Mistral Coast Rose Army Base)

A member of the Rose's Seer was on the radio when suddenly he heard a beeping on after listening his eyes shot open as he bolted up "Commander!" He yelled as he ran down the hall!

( Council chambers)

Someone else on the radio entered the Counciler chambers, " Counciler's there was a breach at the Baptist's Church of oum." He Said "what why?" They asked "apparently someone is sending out the signal on public records that were planning a crusade on Vale..." he said, shaking his head at the unsurd notion, the Counciler sighed, "well we have no Choice, Counciler Vapour leave for Vale now!" He said, the other guy nodded, and headed out, "Wait but your not seroues right?" He asked, as the Counciler looked over to the intern, glaired and walked off.

(Glynda Goodwitch's office, )

Glynda Goodwitch, was in her office filling out paper work acting as the in charge commander while Ruby was in her coma, suddenly she heard a man run down the hall, and kick the door, open "Commander!" He panted, Glynda looked up and glaired at him "What is it?" She asked. As he held up the scroll and Glynda took a listen, "I don't hear anything..." she said, as the man looked to his scroll as the line went dead,

(Church of oum)

Rust, Tram and Steam paused as the broadcast went dead. "Argent!" Steam yelled, as they countuned to fire,

( Argent)

In the broadcast center Argent growled as the signal booster started to overheat, he sighted as he pulled the entire booster out, "looks like the booster is dead I'll have to connect it up to the tower manually." He Said as gunfire could be heard, "how long!?" Stream asked, "five minutes tops..." he said

(downstairs)

Steam held his earpiece and nodded, "do it we will hold the line." He Said as he dropped the earpiece, as Tram cocked her weapons "wave 2!" She yelled, as they looked over to see more officers armed, with heavier weapons, as the three of them opened fire,

( Argent,)

Hearing the gunfire. Argent got to work, taking out the needed tools he took a cable attachment to the scroll and the radio sender, hooked it up to each other, and countuned to play the message, with it going anyone linked into the radio channel of the church would be able to hear it, and indeed around the city it was heard. As Argent climbed up to the end of the spire to the trapdoor leading to the roof, where the signal tower was, as he climbed up a ladder to top,

Once he got up he started to connect the wire's and turned everything on.

( Stream)

Suddenly steam heard the Scroll starting to beep again, "Ha ha were back on!" He Said as he stood up and opened fire, as the other three joined him,

(Glynda)

Glynda glaired at the young man as he fumbled around, " it was just here...hold on I-." He paused as the radio suddenly kicked on. "That it...that's the message Madam!" He saod But Glynda raised her hand so she could listen. "I see... thank you for this info. Send word the message has reached its audience." She said the man, nodded and ran off,

(Church of oum)

Steam roared as he fired his Uzi at the swarm of the front of the church, he ran out, of ammo, "fuck." He said as he tossed his gun away and pulled out his dust pistol and fired, 8 shots until he ran out he jumped behind a pew as an explosion went off, "Damn it." He said, as Tram slid down, "We can't hold stay here." She yelled "we have too Ruby needs to-!" He was stopped when, the message changed into a confirmed signal. "Alright were green! Argent get down here we're going!" He Said as he opened fire, "Argent!" He Said as he looked over as the three started to back off, toward the exit, "ARGENT!" Steam yelled suddenly from above the stained glass from above shattered as Argent fell down bloodied and covered with bullet holes. "Fuck!" Steam Said. As he looked to see the group gathering for another breach offensive, "we got to scramble!" He Said as they headed to the east side entrance,

"WE GOT REPORTS OF THE CRIMINALS SCRAMBLING CRUSER #9 WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU!?" The radio man said as from above sevral patrol cars drove in and blocked the open entrance, "were on station suppressing movement!" The patrol group said as they got out.

The three Huntsmen ran out and were immediately fired upon making them fall back. "Shit!" Steam cursed, as he looked around, "looks like this is going to be a last stand after all!" He Said as suddenly the fighting stopped, "TEAM STAR SURRENDER WE GOT YOU CORNERED, AND YOUR BUDDY!" The commander of the swat team said, as he dragged out the tender, "Steam looked over to Rust and Tram who nodded,

"Give up now or we shoot your buddy!" The Commander Said leveling a pistol at him, a crack was heard as the commander fell to the ground, the man took off running into the church, and was lucky to make it unscathed. "You okay?" He asked, "yeah yea I'm fine, I just have nothing left anymore!" He yelled angrily, "Wait is the plan busted?" Rust asked, "to all hell. Our escape is cut off, Argent is dead, and the police are bashing on the door!" He said as the fire fight resumed Steam fired into the crowd, "well fuck! Take down as many of these corrupt bastards as you can!" He Said as he opened fire. "Wait what about me?" He asked, "take Argents pistol." Steam Said as he pointed to the 1911 on the ground. He lunged for the gun, But was shot in the shoulder, he was howver able to grab the gun and fire it twice in the offhand before he was gunned down. " shit." Steam Said, "well that's what happens to civilians in a war zone," Rust said. "Welp come on let's get started," Stream Said as he stood up and headed to the center, both Tram and Rust noted he was limping more than usual, "dude your okay?" He asked, "yea...yea I'm-." Steam took a stumble but caught himself "I'm fine!" He shook himself off from the Burry vision and looked to see his firends stopped, "Tram, Rust...what is it?" He asked " your jacket..." they said.

Steam looked down and saw it was tattered and cover3d in blood. " oh.,,ain't that a bitch." He said drowsy as the police charged at them once again this assult hit Steam straight in the back and even as he turned firing a shot into that guy, he was swiftly turned into Swiss cheese. However the bastard kept kicking, "F-Fuck you!" He yelled as he grabbed the pew and stood up as he looked back to see Tram and Rust he smiled as a trail of blood leaked from his lip. "Go..." he said, as the two headed up to make there final stand on the high ground, Steam stood there as the swat team breached one final time, all guns pointed on Steam. "Stand Down!" The Officer said as Stream took a deep breath, "my brothers guide me..." he whispered as he opened his eyes, and contorted his face into rage, "FUCK YOU!" He roared as a man behind the front with a shotgun fired blowing his right leg clean off, making him fall. "Arrgh!" He yelled as they police unloaded into his downed body, as Steam curled up into a fetal position, and with a final yelled he activated his semblance, Sending all the overall damage dealt to him in a single wave killing all the police unloading into him and those around the building in a short distance, using all the strength he had, he looked up as he saw from the rafters Tram crying, he smiled to her, "did I...do good?" He asked, she held back her tears and nodded not trusting her voice. Steam gave a hollow chuckle, as he fell limp and died. Tram held a condensed rage, and growled. "No more..." she said as she got out her trident. Rust got out his sheet knife, and nodded.

As the second wave of breaches came in and looked around to see the massacre and nothing else. "Spread our find them!" He Said, unaware above them Tram and Rust were ready,

As the last guy came in Tram jumped Down and Inpaled the guy in the chest, making the others turn and fire but Rust jumped down and killed a few, before he ran off, it was a style of gurrela warfare, and it was deadly effective,

Tram was the first to die because she got cocky, and Rust fought to the bitter end, but in the end he too was slane. And thus ended the career of team star Hero's to the Valient Rose, and allegiances that rival the act of god, this is what true warriors aspire to be. Hero's until the end, after the war, the bodies were found and were buried with high honors for serving there new kingdom.
