Spells and Louds
Chapter 259: Battle for Safe Haven
(FutureTech HQ, the Royal Fortress)
A portal opens and all the Royal Defenders pass through, well Loona is not with them, she's back at the Spellman Hell Mansion.
All of the kids seem very happy. "We did it! We passed the Exam!" said Linka in happiness.
"And the same goes for out other friends. They all passed!" said Jordan.
Lincoln was happy to see them smiling, he was shocked to see that Rusty made it to the top ten in the grades. Though no one wanted to speak to him, which was something Lincoln has to talk about to Rusty, when the time comes.
"You think you guys are the only ones who passed?" asked Carol.
"You guys passed as well?" asked Timmy.
"We literally did, though Carol is the one who was number one" said Lori.
"Becky was second" replied Dana.
"That's what I get for learning from my nerdy boyfriend" replied Becky. They all chuckled at this.
"What about you Sunset? Any news from your Canterlot pals?" asked Luna.
"They all passed, Sci-Twi tutored them during Sunday and it worked" replied Sunset.
"At this point, we all are gonna do well for the future. Middle School, senior years and then College" said Sam.
They all agreed on her words.
"A shame the Dazzles had to stay home today, but we are being called to something else" replied Peter.
"Actually, they said they're gonna be celebrating with the Rainbooms" said Ember.
"She's right" said Sunset. "Pinkie Pie and Rarity told me what they were going to do, way before we went here."
"I'm so proud of all of you for passing the exam from last week, you all did well" replied Neil.
Leon kisses Dana and she kisses him back. Jordan places a quick kiss on Lincoln's cheek and he responds doing the same thing.
"Now normally we would have to celebrate someplace or something, but I wanna know why we're even here" said Leni.
"And where the heck are Martin, Victor, Penny, Tadashi and Jack Cyber?" asked Becky.
They then notice all the allied, soviet and empire forces assembling and moving out, all of them getting ready for a fight. They were all confused by all of this.
"What the heck is going on dudes?" asked Luna.
"It looks like they're all getting ready for a fight" replied Gwen.
"Something is wrong" said Sergei.
"That you're right on" they all turn around to see Sienna Khan, wearing the attire she wore when she led the White Fang. "It's time."
They all understand, and they all power up.
Lincoln and Linka become Commander Freezer Burn and Commander Shrike, Jordan to Arct Aurora, Timmy with Poof enter their magical mech mode and become Mechagix, Luna becomes Luna Frost, Leni to Leni Ivy, Lori to Volcana, Dana to Ice and Becky to Fire, Sam to Livewire, Carol to Velvet Slinger, Sunset Shimmer to Daydream Shimmer, Gwen to Shade Archer, Ember amps up her guitar to full and ready for combat, Peter enters his Ghost Rider state and readies his sword Blood Crucible, Leon becomes Halimaw and Sergei summons Crimson Hammer and Neil into Deathwing's humanoid form.
"Let's do this thing!" said Lincoln. Sienna Khan smiles and fires a flare, this signals the entire mobile floating fortress to start moving. Then the whole thing enters Chrono-warp and they're teleported.
(Eastern Sea side of Mistral, Remnant.)
The Royal Fortress makes it to the location, they all notice everything around them. At first they see a fog, then the fog clears and they all see the mainland.
"So, is that it? Is that Mistral?" asked Sunset.
"Yes, yes it is. It's good to be home" replied Sienna Khan. Boomer's Super Kirov comes out of the fog from the mainland, they can see Gyro on board it with Pyrrha and Penny.
"This is it" said Lincoln. "This is where we begin our strike to stop the taking of the relic of knowledge."
Then Martin arrives in his tech suit. "Hey guys, glad you all made it. Victor, Tadashi and Jack Cyber are at one of our outposts a few miles from the Haven Academy."
"Okay then, let's get going" replied Niel.
They all board the Medivac Dropships and take off for their destination. With the Super Kirov and Martin following behind.
That's when they pick up a transmission. "Guys, some of our patrols have spotted a large group of Faunus moving through the waters of Mistral by ship, they're being led by the Belladonna family" replied Martin.
"Well, that's convenient, or is it not?" asked Sergei.
"We'll have to discuss this further with Raven. Where is she?" asked Linka.
"At the outpost, but we have to hurry" replied Martin.
(Outpost delta-10)
The Dropships land and they see someone waiting for them there. Raven Branwen and the false Spring Maiden.
"Hey Branwen, we got some bad news for ya. Some Faunus are coming in by sea and they're led by Ghira Belladonna" replied Peter.
Raven wasn't upset by this. "Seems like the plan has changed again, we can use this for our advantage."
"How so?" asked Leni.
"Simple, we use them to aid in taking down any incoming Faunus threats" replied Raven. "But first, everyone this is Vernal she is my false spring maiden the one to take all the responsibility into making Cinder think she has the powers."
"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you" said Carol.
"Likewise, I'm ready to do my part. For my family, for my tribe and for Raven" replied Vernal.
"Loyalty, very nice. I respect that one dude" replied Luna.
"So, with my people from Menagerie coming in what are our intentions?" asked Sienna. Raven was surprised to finally meet Sienna Khan.
"Well, it sure is a pleasure to meet you for the first time. I have heard of all the revolutions and assaults you led with the White Fang" replied Raven.
"That was before, I do not intend to do it again. The White Fang has to change, for the better" replied Sienna Khan.
"My thoughts exactly, you're people are probably being led by one of Yang's friends, a Huntress that you know of" said Raven.
"Yes, Blake. She is a good friend of mine back when we fought alongside with Adam. She must be trying to put an end to the chaos the White Fang has committed, like me she wants no harm to come to the Academies and probably seeks equality and peace with the humans" said Sienna Khan,
"And the plan guys? What are we to do with the Faunus arriving?" asked Leon.
"We give them an escort crew, the finest tech you have in your arsenal. Make sure to inform them that your divisions are trying to stop whatever the White Fang are planning" said Raven.
"I'll lead the convoy to escort the Faunus" said Leon.
"Good, you will be given a massive vehicle and areal army to help you" said Martin.
"Once they arrive they will be neutralizing the explosives, but we will be the ones to do so. With the …. Dragonfly robots you have" said Raven.
"They're called Sunburst drones" replied Jack Cyber.
"So, we shut down the bombs and surround the White Fang with the aid of the Mistral police and the Faunus led by the Belladonna's. And Raven will be handling Cinder within the vault of the Relic of Knowledge" replied Lincoln.
"And we also aid in neutralizing all the White Fang soldiers, and if there are wounded we'll patch them up. But what of Salem's inner circle?" said Linka.
Raven looks to Peter Sharp. "Pyron will aid with that fight."
Peter was confused by this. "I'm sorry, you said what now?"
"She's right, you're weapon Blood Crucible is the only weapon, besides Lincoln's. To have more than one calibration, it's more of a Huntsman's weapon when you look at it" replied Pyrrha.
"And you will disguise your Ghost Rider form as your Semblance" said Gyro. "You will aid Team RNJR in fighting off Emerald, Mercury and Hazel."
"And what about Lionheart?" asked Dana.
"If he tries to escape, then Salem will most likely go after him and kill him. He's failed his task to be the relic's protector" said Raven.
"She's right. Leonardo is not worth saving" said Gyro.
"It feels wrong to do that one, but he has joined sides with Salem" said Penny. "Pyrrha and I will remain in the Super Kirov Airship to provide reinforcements and communications."
"And once The White Fang have been stopped, I will make my appearance and put an end to all of this" said Sienna Khan.
"To return the great leader to her throne and change the fate of the White Fang, forever" said Gyro.
"And I will deal with Cinder and claim the Relic of Knowledge" said Raven.
"Let's split up the Royal Defenders, with the chaos going on within Haven. Grimm are bound to sense the chaos" said Lincoln.
"Okay, so we have Sienna, Becky, Dana, Leon, Sergei, Peter, Victor, Martin, Mom and Carol fighting off the White Fang and Salem's inner circle alongside Raven, Vernal and coming later will be Sienna Khan" said Lincoln.
"Then there's Lincoln, myself, Luna, Leni, Sunset, Timmy, Ember, Lori, Jack Cyber, Sam, Tadashi and Dad with us fighting off any incoming Grimm outside of Haven" said Linka.
"Penny, Myself and Boomer will be situated high in the air" said Pyrrha. "Along with Gyro."
"And once Raven has the relic we all high tail out of there and Sienna can deal with the White Fang, and then we can proceed with the next plan. The retrieval of the Relic of Creation from Atlas" said Gyro.
"Which is not going to be easy" said Lincoln.
Raven smiles. "Nice plan Linck Twins, I appreciate the teams you're providing and the strategy. Are you sure you two don't want to be at Haven instead."
Lincoln shook his head in response. "We know our roles and what we can do, plus we don't want to spark any suspicions around the kingdom."
"We stick to this plan and it'll work. But if something else goes awry, then improvise" said Linka.
"Peter, you already know about Hazel?" asked Gyro.
"I read about him weeks ago, so whatever Semblance he can muster, then bring it! I don't want him dead I just want him down for the count!" replied Peter.
"Then it's settled, the whole operation begins tonight" said Raven.
"We'll be on standby within the field of our personal GAP Generators. Adam and his goons won't even know we're there and hiding" said Victor.
"Then let's do this then" said Gwen. They all nod and get to their positions, the sun was now in the afternoon state or in other words, it was 4:33 pm.
Raven opens a portal and goes through with Vernal. The Royal Defenders get to their instructed positions, Sergei calls Loona just in case, Sienna boards one of the medivac Dropships alongside Peter Sharp. It was almost time, time to save Mistral from Salem's inner Circle.
(Somewhere in the sea of Haven,)
Blake with her parents, Sun and Ilia Amitola along with the entire Faunus fighting force are now on one of the ships Blake went on when she arrived to Menagerie.
"This is it Blake, we're almost there" said Sun.
"Yeah, I hope this works" said Blake.
She feels a hand on her shoulder, one belonging to Ilia. "It has to work. We're with you, all of us."
Blake smiles, she felt confident for all of them being there, to save Mistral and save the White Fang from the Adam's corruption.
Just then they hear the captain calling them. "Attention! Grimm spotted!"
They all spot the large Grimm Sea Dragon surfacing. "Well, it looks like there's more of these things" said the captain. "The more to tell a tale about! Ready the cannon!"
But then another one surfaces and another and another. They were now surrounded by four Grimm Sea Dragon's.
"Okay, this is bad" said the ship captain. Blake, Sun and Ilia ready they're weapons to fight them off. The other Faunus also ready their weapons, well swords and shields.
But then a large blue beam destroys one of the Grimm Sea Dragon's and it burns into ashes. Coming out of the fog is a large flying robot head and it was talking. "Territory control is underway."
"What am I looking at?" asked Sun.
"This looks like Atlas tech to me" said Ghira.
"But, far more advanced" said Kali.
One of the Grimm Sea Dragon's roars and shoots out a fireball at the Giga-Fortress, but it was ineffective.
The Giga-Fortress looks to the Grimm Sea Dragon's. "Prioritizing attack sequence." It sends out a powerful beam but it misses when the Grimm Sea Dragon's dodges it.
Then a hail of missiles reigns down onto two of the Grimm Sea Dragon's, they then get barraged by bullets from Allied Hydrofoils. "Hey! Get away from here!"
The large Grimm Sea Dragons are then struck by Vindicator bombers and they explode.
The last Grimm Sea Dragon tries to attack them all, but someone from a medivac dropship lands on its head and uses his claws to dig his way into the monsters head. The Grimm Sea Dragon screams in pain and its body goes comatose and drops into the sea. The man breaks out of the Grimm's head and lands onto the ship.
They were shocked to see this person. He has yellow slit eyes, large fangs and tusks, bristle-like hair and large claws, his legs were like that of a dog's back legs and he was growling. He then reverts back to normal. "Which one of you is Ghira Belladonna?"
Ghira shows himself. "I am, and who are you?'
Leon smiles and bows to him. "Sir, my name is Leon Davion Spellman. I am the leading strike officer of this force, we are here to escort you to Haven Academy."
Blake was confused by this. "Why?"
Leon then goes to her. "Because we have to secure something that Adam is trying to get his hands on, and if he gets it then his benefactor will use it to unleash more than just destruction to one academy. That and an old friend of yours wants to restore the White Fang to a new order, a new path away from these crimes."
Blake didn't know what to say, but she can tell they were there to aid the Faunus. "Okay then, what's the plan that you and your allies have?"
Leon smiles and fills her in, but he does not tell her about Ruby and her team being there, and she doesn't tell her about Sienna Khan as well. That was a surprise.
(Night fall, Haven Academy.)
Adam and his White Fang have already placed the explosives around the Academy. What they did not know is that a strike force was hiding in the shadows.
Sienna growls seeing Adam. "Easy there Khan, we're not to deploy just yet. We just have to be patient" said Peter.
Sienna calms down. "Yes, of course. Not yet."
Then someone breaks out of the school and lands in front of Adam. "That must be Hazel, he sure is big" said Peter.
"He's the human Adam brought into the White Fang's hideout!" growled Sienna.
Then they spot someone calling to Adam. Sienna Khan smiled at who it was. "Blake."
"So, this is it" said Peter. "Guys, how're the charges?"
"All disarmed" said Ilia, she then nods to one of the Burst drones and they get ready to rejoin the others.
Then the whole Faunus group along with Ghira and Sun and Leon along with the Mistral police surround Adam and The White Fang. He then tries to push the button to arm the charges. But nothing happens.
"Now?" asked Sienna.
Peter smirks. "Now!" All the Dropships reveal themselves out of stealth and also there are ten Mirage tanks, Guardian tanks, Hammer Tanks and Two Apocalypse Tanks.
Above is the Super Kirov Airship. "This is turning out better than we all hoped" said Boomer.
"Guys, how are you all handling out there?" Gyro asks through a communicator.
(Allied Outposts.)
The outposts are now shooting every Grimm that's coming to attack.
"Just great! Lots of Grimm are here!" said Lincoln. He leaps onto a Grimm Beowolf and stabs it in the back with his kyber claws.
Neil slams down with his fiery mace. "Looks like we got their attention!"
Luna comes in and freezes them. "A lot of attention!" She then sends a hailstorm of icicles.
"Keep at it guys, we just have to hold until Raven has the Relic" said Gyro.
"Got it!" Linka snipes a Grim.
(Back at Haven)
Adam is shocked at what was happening, he had no idea what was even happening anymore. Blake and the Faunus are surprised by this technological strike force with them. Then Peacekeepers and Imperial Warriors arrive with their guns ready.
Then Becky, Dana, Leon, Sergei, Victor, Martin, Mom and Carol arrive all ready for battle. "Stand down!" said Sergei.
Adam looks to Hazel. "What do we do?"
Hazel crunches his knuckles. "This is your business, not mine." He then injects himself with more raw Dust. "Fix it!"
Adam looks to Blake in anger. "I told you Adam. It's over."
Adam charges at her, but then he's pulled by his leg by a chain that looks awfully familiar. "No!"
They all see from above the Mirage Tank was. "Sienna Khan?!" Ghira was shocked by this.
"Hello Adam" growled Sienna. Then she looks to Hazel. "And the human dog of his."
Hazel was confused, she was dead when they encountered each other.
"Why are you surprised? Did you think you could kill me so easily?!" said Sienna. "You will pay for what you did Adam! You and your associates!"
Adam gets up and tries to command the rest of the White Fang, but they didn't know what to do. Their former leader is back, from the freaking dead.
"I killed you once, and I can do it again!" Adam charges at Sienna, but she dodges, grabs his hair and tosses him to the ground.
"You're afraid, I can see that now. Just as Blake was when you struck at Veil, now you will know what it's like to be afraid" said Sienna.
Adam gets up and tries to attack, but then he gets punched in the face by Blake. Adam is then tossed to the ground in front of his troops, who are now surrendering. "What are you all doing?! Attack them!"
They did not reply, but they look to Sienna and the Faunus. "W-We're sorry. We didn't …. We weren't …. We were just-"
"Following orders" said Sienna. "But now those orders have changed and I intend to undo all the mistake the White Fang has done, we can find a better solution to all of this, without the need of violence. We can work together, amongst the humans."
Many of the Faunus heard what she just said. They all felt as if this was real.
"How can you be sure of this?" asked Ilia.
"Because she's not alone." Peter comes out with his large sword. "And from we're from. Humanity has learned to be equals to other races, there is no need to violence amongst each other, when we can work together."
Adam tries to attack again, but Blake and Sun dodge him and Adam is met face first with Sienna's fist and he's slammed into the wall of the academy.
"You were right about one thing, he has gotten weak and has no clue how strong you have become" said Peter.
"I guess fighting Rock Golems made me stronger than I used to be" said Sienna.
Peter then sees Hazel. "I'll be, right back." He charges forward, calibrates his sword into a hammer and slams it into Hazel's chest and he's pulled back by a Grimm Lancer that Weiss conjured up.
Peter was now face-to-face with Ruby and the Huntsman and Huntress's. "Who the heck are you supposed to be?" asked Qrow.
"Don't worry Qrow, your sister knows me and I know her. This is the plan!" Peter then calibrates his sword into a Dust rounded MG42. "Let's get crazy!" and he opens fire.
Meanwhile Adam leaves the fight, Sun tries to go after him but Blake stops him. Sienna also agrees to let him run, he has no one left by his side.
Blake goes to Sienna, so does Ilia, Ghira and Kali.
"We thought you …. You died" said Ilia.
Sienna smiled. "I did, but with some help I was given a chance to fix what we almost destroyed."
Blake hugs Sienna. Sienna is caught off guard by this, but she smiles and hugs her back.
"It's good to see you again Sienna" said Blake.
"You as well Blake" replied Sienna. "But our business is not done yet."
They break the hug and then look into the academy. The rest of the Faunus retreat from the area with Sun, Ghira and Ilia. They were escorted by the Mirage Tanks to safety.
Sienna looks to her White Fang soldiers. "Can I still trust you all with your loyalty?"
One of them speaks up. "We apologize, for betraying you High Leader, we thought we were doing the right thing."
Sienna goes to them. "Redemption will not be easy, but let's start it now" Sienna hands them back their guns. The White Fang rise up and join her and Blake to fight Hazel, Emerald and Mercury.
The others decided to go and aid the other Royal Defenders in fighting off the Grimm. "Alright guys, I think they got this. Let's go" said Carol.
Ruby and Weiss were amazed and shocked to see Blake back again. Emerald and Mercury try to fend off the White Fang soldiers, some of them go to tend to Oscar, Qrow, Ren and Nora, and they were confused as to why they're helping them.
Some part of Ozpin knows who is behind all of this.
Hazel is busy trying to fight off this new Huntsman. But no matter how many times he tries to inject himself, Hazel is getting weak?
"Wh-What is happening …. To me?!" said Hazel. He uses more Dust, but it gets grabbed by Sienna with her weapon. What is happening you may ask? Well Peter is Ghost Rider, so he's sapping all of that limitless rage and energy from Hazel, and weakening his Aura.
Peter then walks slowly to Hazel and his sword was now a large golf club. "Hazel, Hazel, Hazel. It is true that no one can stop you with that dumb ass Semblance of yours, but what about someone, Demonic?" Peter's head is on fire and is a skull.
They were all shocked by this. Sienna was amazed. "So, this is the Ghost Rider. Impressive."
Ghost Rider whacks Hazel hard in the head and he lands on top of Mercury. "What the? Get off of me!" Emerald goes to help him.
Ghost Rider sees that Lionheart is trying to run. "Not so fast!" He turns his sword into a harpoon and chain and shoots it to impale Leo's right shoulder and reels him in saying. "Get over here!"
Leonardo Lionheart was now face-to-face with Ghost Rider. "All the souls of the Huntsmen and Huntress's, all the souls you sent to die in the hands of Salem's inner circle!"
"P-Please! Have mercy!" begged Lionheart.
"Why?" asked Ghost Rider. He then puts Leonardo right in front of his face. "Look into my eyes! Your soul is stained with the blood of those who wanted to protect the innocent!"
Leonardo screams in horror. "Now, feel their pain!" Ghost Rider's eyes burn into Leonardo's eyes and it eventually burns through his head.
He then drops Lionheart to the ground. Leonardo Lionheart is dead. "May your soul rot in hell bitch!"
Mercury slams his fist to the ground in anger. "It's over you three. Give up, now!" said Sienna. The White Fang point they're guns to the three members of Salem's group.
"No! It's not over! Cinder will be back, she'll have the relic and she'll stop all of you!" said Emerald. "She won't let us down."
Ghost Rider chuckles. "Naive girl! You have no idea whose side we're on do you? None of you do!"
Sienna knew it was time. "Raven Branwen came to us. She established this whole plan, to take down Cinder, take the Relic and help me return and change the White Fang. This was all her doing."
They were all shocked. Hazel and Mercury were angry and confused. Emerald realized that Cinder was all alone, with Raven and Vernal.
"And the plan is working" said Ghost Rider.
Ruby looks to Sienna, so does Qrow.
"But, she's going to take it. She'll take the relic!" said Ruby.
"No, she's going to bring it to us. For safety" replied Gyro who arrives from his raven form. "And I will ensure to all of you, that it will be safe once more!"
Oscar looks to Gyro. Gyro sees the boy and smiles. "Long time no see, Ozpin. Also, you look like a farmer."
Ghost Rider chuckles. "Ha! Nice come back." Then he realizes. "Wait a minute. I was once a farmer."
Then they see the entrance to the Vault of the relic was surfacing. "This is it" said Sienna Khan.
The White Fang move in to defend the person who's coming out with the relic. "Alright Raven. Let's wrap this up and go home" said Ghost Rider, who then turns back into Peter Sharp.
But that person was not Raven Branwen. Ruby smiled. "Yang." It was Yang Xiao Long and with her the Relic of Knowledge, or the Lamp of Knowledge.
"What in the heck?" asked Peter.
"What is this?" asked Sienna Khan.
Gyro wasn't upset by this. "So, she made her choice then. Well done Raven, well done."
Yang notices Blake and the two of them smile.
Hazel was now furious, Mercury was pissed off and Emerald ….. Emerald drops her weapons, drops to her hands and knees and cries. Cinder was gone.
"Well, this went all accordingly well" said Gyro.
They then pick up a transmission from Lincoln. "Guys! We cleared out all the Grimm, or better yet they're retreating. Did Raven do it? Does she have the Relic?"
Gyro smiles. "No, she improvised."
Lincoln and the others were confused, but then they understood. This was meant to happen.
Mercury and Hazel get up and they see that they are now surrounded. Mercury turns to Emerald who is on her hands and knees. "Get up, we need to go."
Emerald sits up and looks to all of them in anger and tears. She looks to Mercury. "Emerald!"
She then looks around at everyone and she screams and she creates an illusion, of Salem.
"Holy shit!" yelled Peter.
"My god!" said Sienna. The White Fang point their guns to the illusion. "Stop! It's not real!"
The large Salem illusion looks at them and screams then it charges towards them and everything turns to black.
Soon, they all open their eyes and see Salem was gone, so are Emerald, Mercury and Hazel. Some of them were shaken by the image of Salem that came.
Blake looks to everyone. "What ….. What was that?"
"An illusion" they all look to Oscar who was actually Ozpin talking. "And a very accurate one."
"That, was Salem" Gyro continues. They were all shocked, well not for Sienna and Peter. They know what she looks like.
Then Ghira and Kali arrive and hug Blake, Sun also arrives.
Ghira goes to Sienna. "Sienna, what you did today was amazing. Just as Blake did in rallying our people here, and I know you can help change the White Fang into something better. But unfortunately Adam Taurus has escaped."
Sienna growled in anger, but she calmed down when she heard someone. "It's okay, he was the only one to escape tonight." They all see it was Ilia. "And the White Fang are no longer on his side and the remaining factions across Remnant are now left divided."
"Unless, someone unites them back. Into a new order" Ghira looks to Sienna. "And I know you have a plan on how we can have a brighter future, with the humans."
"I do Ghira, but I think we should discuss it later. As of now, we still have more work to do, or better yet. We all need some rest" said Sienna. The other White Fang soldiers smiled, whatever she has planned will be good, for all Faunus.
Sun and Blake then go to the rest of their friends. Yang comes down the stairs accompanied by two White Fang soldiers, and she hands the relic to Qrow. "What happened?"
Gyro, Sienna and Peter were listening to this, and they used their communicators to let the others hear this.
"I don't know exactly. When I got there Cinder was gone" replied Yang. "And Vernal was dead."
Sienna and Peter gasped hearing that. "This …. This was all supposed to happen I guess" replied Peter.
"And Raven?" asked Gyro.
Yang had no clue who this man was. But she looks to Oscar. "Ozpin knows who this man is, we can trust him. He's the one who brought Sienna back."
Blake and the others gasped, and so did the White Fang. Yang looks to Gyro. "My mom is gone, she left."
Qrow sighed. "Well, we're all still glad you're here Firecracker." Then Team RWBY reunites in a large group hug.
They all were relieved that this was all over.
Qrow and Gyro go to Oscar. "I don't know how, but we did it Ozpin" said Qrow. They noticed how exhausted he was. "You okay?"
"I'm alright" replied Oscar.
"Kid?" asked Qrow. "He's resting" replied Oscar. "Too much energy fighting."
"Hey now, take it easy and don't strain yourself boy" replied Gyro.
Oscar tries to get up, but Gyro and Qrow help him. "No, he had … a message. We must …. Collect ….. Atlas." Oscar then collapses from exhaustion, but he's helped by Qrow.
Qrow and Gyro know what this means, then they look to Team RWBY and the others. Then they look to the Relic.
"So, the mission is still going I see" said Qrow.
"It appears so, and I do hope you and these kids can make it there" sai Gyro.
Then they spot some Dropships arrive and the doors reveal all the members of the Royal Defenders come out. Sienna approaches them.
"So, this is it then" said Sunset.
"Not to worry all of you, I may have my place back within the White Fang, but I am still a Royal Defender. Like all of you, this is not goodbye, this is goodbye till next time" replied Sienna.
Leni, Lori, Dana, Becky, Carol and Sunset hug her. Sienna hugs them back. Blake and her parents and the White Fang have no clue what is happening.
But it seems, Sienna made new friends, or in this case allies. "Do come and visit sometime Sienna, we can all hang out" said Leni.
"I'll see what I can do" replied Sienna. She then sees Ghira approach them. "Thank you, all of you. For helping bring Sienna back to us."
"No problem sir, it was our pleasure" replied Lincoln.
"And we hope that Sienna's plan will work, to bring the humans of Remnant at peace with the Faunus" said Gwen.
"But if that doesn't work, then our world's doors are always open for your kind. All of them" replied Linka.
Ghira, Kali, Ilia and Blake were shocked by this. "What?"
Martin smiles. "Let's just say, Sienna had fun seeing and understanding just how remarkable humans can be, through unity in our world."
"Farewell, all of you" said Sienna.
Gyro looks to Qrow. "Keep them safe, watch over them and get to Atlas. Before it's too late, we'll be in touch." Gyro then turns into a raven and flies off.
The rest of the heroes make their way back to the Medivac Dropships. But Victor had to announce something to them. "By order of the United Nations and the Multiverse alliance!" All the Faunus from outside were hearing this as well through the loud speakers of the tanks.
"The Faunus are hereby welcomed as equals should they choose to come and reside in our world. And Sienna Khan, all Allied, Soviet and Empire bases in Mistral are now under your command, use them wisely and fight against all that Salem stands for, and keep the innocent safe."
Sienna was shocked by this, she then shakes hands with Victor. "I will, and I will also tell my people on how to get to your world. So that they may have a place, to call home."
Victor nods and heads back to the Dropship. The Peace keepers and Imperial Warriors who are there at Haven salute to Sienna Khan. "We are your to command, High Leader."
Ghira smiled at this. 'So, this is her plan. I'm proud of you Sienna, you truly are a fine leader to the White Fang.'
Blake and Ilia shed some tears, they're people have a future.
Ruby and the others couldn't believe it. A new faction with advanced technology and incredible heroes.
Ruby then walks towards the massive Dropships about to take off. She then sees them saluting to her and her friends. "Hey Team RWBY!" yelled Linka.
Ruby and the others look to the twelve year old white-haired girl. "Keep fighting girl, and don't give up on each other. Remnant is counting on you, all of you." The Dropships then make the warp back to the Royal Fortress and following behind was the Super Kirov Airship, Boomer waves goodbye to them.
But they are all unaware that Penny and Pyrrha were watching them from the windows of the airship, waving at them with tears. Someday, they will reveal themselves and be friends with them once again.
Jaune however, felt strange. Like someone he knows was watching over him. Someone familiar.
Sienna sighs, she was happy that Remnant was one step closer to true unity. "Sienna?" asked Blake.
"Who were they?" asked Weiss.
"They …. They are the Royal Defenders, and I am one of them" replied Sienna. She hopes that she can see them again and bring her people along as well.
Qrow just looks to all the aircraft leaving. 'This is just the start and who knows what we'll all be facing ahead of us. But I hope Ozpin can shed some light on thi Guardian person and anything else he might have kept secret.'
He then recalls what Raven once said, about Ozpin keeping too many secrets from everyone he knew and loved. And perhaps, Raven Branwen was right. Or perhaps, the Relic could hold the answers.
But Qrow decides to let that idea slide, until the time is right.
Epilogue.
(Xiao Long – Rose Family home.)
Taiyang Xiao Long is seen tending to his garden. He then hears the sound of flapping bird feathers.
He then notices a falling black feather and sighs.
To be continued …..
A/N: Based on the last episodes of RWBY Volume 5, but with a little plot twist to it, and do not worry. Sienna will meet them again, soon. And perhaps her people will also join them and reside within Royal Woods, or Great Lake City. This is just the start, until the return to Remnant again, for Atlas. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
