Yang and Shaider enter the camp, escorted by the bandits from 2 chapters ago. Well, except for one in particular, and that's Shady. He was crawling on the floor painfully until one of them decided to carry him. The duo notices more bandits lining up along the path, giving angry glares at her, especially to the blue-clad newcomer. Shu grits his teeth under his helmet. "I don't like the look of this, do you?" He asks Yang. "Me neither." She answers. Meanwhile, the 2 bandits guarding Weiss are playing cards with each other, before joining the rest of their tribe to see Yang and Shaider walk in. Weiss notices this as another window to escape, so she summons a small Arma Gigas made of ice. "Here, buddy. Help me with my cuffs." She whispers, causing the tiny knight to nod as it starts to saw off her confinement.
Yang, Shaider and her escorts arrive at the camp's main tent. Seeing that her daughter arrived, Raven emerges from her tent with her mask on. "Mom." Yang breathes as her biological mother removes her headgear. "Yang. So, after all this time you finally decided to visit me." Raven mocks. Yang's left-hand shakes once again, but Shaider grabs her hand, calming it down. He gives a slight nod to her. "And I see that you've also brought your boyfriend with you. How adorable." Raven laughs.
"Hey! You should respect your daughter because she has been searching for you, and god knows how long! So, why don't you do me a favor and shut your dirty mouth?" Shaider says, pointing his metal finger at Yang's biological mother. "And the two of you certainly found me. My my, you were both patient, determined, and strong enough to make each other happy." She continues. "Well done, Yang. But did you and your boy toy have to be so rough with my men?"
"They didn't want a fight." Said a new voice, shocking everyone. They turned their heads and looked to see Geki Jumonji walking into the camp by himself. "Because they started it." He removes his sunglasses and shows his badge. "Raven Branwen. You are under arrest for abandonment, abduction and assaulting a fellow officer."
"Geki? What are you doing here, man?" Shu asks, reverting back to himself. "Oh, I dunno. I thought I could help you two out." Geki responded as he joined the duo, now making them a trio. "So that makes me what, officer? A criminal?" Raven taunts. A silence passes through the crowd. "Right. I'm sure this is all very overwhelming. But I must admit that all of you three have proven yourself. So any questions you have, I'll be happy to answer. You can stay with us tonight. I'll even have the cooks whip up something for you." Raven adds. "Nice offer, but no." Geki replies. "It's not why we are here," Yang adds. "Ruby is somewhere in Mistral. She's with Qrow, and she's going to need my help. I just need you to take me to her." She explains.
"And why would I do that?" Raven asks.
"Because it's Yang's family, and family is what matters the most," Geki responds.
Raven scowls. "Family. Only coming around when they need something." She projects again. "I have to say, I'm disappointed. After all, you all found me, didn't you? Why not take that drive and use it to find your little sister if she means that much to you?"
"Because YOU clearly don't even have a family, do you?!" Shu spat out, enraged. "Pathetic boyfriend," Raven mutters again. "You did not just say that," Yang growled. "You can spout off whatever you want, but nothing is going to keep me away from my sister."
"Well, aren't you stubborn?" The black-haired woman smirks.
"Have you never heard the saying? Like mother, like daughter, bitch." Geki barks at Raven. The entire tribe gasps. "Well, if that's how you feel, then it sounds like we're done here. Take them away!" Raven orders. The bandits surround and begin to move into the trio. Yang's eyes begin to flare up and turn red. "Oi, Shu," Geki says to Shu. "Yeah?"
"Doesn't this remind you of Kill Bill?"
"Totally. Let's do this thing in style."
"Roger." Geki smirks before holding Yang back. "Leave this to us, darling." He says, before winking at her.
"JOUCHAKU!" With his words, he brings his right fist forward before swinging both his arms to the back and then to the front, forming a cross with his wrists. He then taps the ground with his right fist and raises his left hand into the air. "RAAAAAAAAGH! HWAH!" He cries, before spreading out his arms as white particles begin to surround him, morphing him into Uchuu Keiji Gavan Type-G.
A/N: Uchuu Keiji Gavan's combat suit Jouchaku process only takes 0.5 seconds! Now, let us rewatch the transformation process!
Everything rewinds to Geki performing the Jouchaku process. As he raises his left hand into the sky, the Dolgiran flies over his location. "Roger. Transporting combat suit." Announces the computer of the ship as Granium particles are sent from the ship's belly, forming Gavan Type-G's combat suit.
"Uchuu Keiji! Gavan!" He announces as he takes out his laser blade in its rapier form. "Yosh! Let's leave the light in the dust!" He cries before charging at the group, taking them out one by one. "OK! Shouketsu!" Shu calls out before transforming into Shaider and joining his comrade in the fight. Yang nods and starts to punch the bandits. However, there's someone bigger that joins the fight.
Weiss turns her miniature Arma Gigas and enlarges it to the size of a titan, completely obliterating the cage in the process. She quickly makes her way to the trio, with the giant following close and swiping the bandits away with its enourmous sword. However, a lightning bolt strikes, stopping the commotion. "ENOUGH!" Vernal commands, causing the bandits to withdraw.
"Thank you, Vernal." Raven thanks. "Now, if you people don't keep it together, this place will be crawling with Grimm." She tells the group. "Give the girl her weapon back." She then tells Vernal, who tosses Myrtenaster to Weiss. All the bandits return to their tents.
"Now that we are done here, I will tell you the truth."
(A few moments later...)
"The creatures of Grimm have a master named Salem. She can't be stopped, she can't be reasoned with, and she has made an alliance with the Gen-Makuu crime syndicate."
Geki is shocked by this and stands from his seat. "How?! But, we defeated the Gen-Makuu, didn't we? Retsu-san even reported the syndicate's defeat!"
"I can't tell why this Gen-Makuu allied with Salem, but I can assure you something: the Metal Heroes are after a common goal to defeat Salem and the Gen-Makuu. In fact, we have also found a group of metal heroes as well."
She signals to Vernal, and she nods. She then brings in a group of 4 people, 3 male, and 1 female. "Juspion?!" Geki exclaims. "A-and Yousuke? Diana? Ryusei?" "How did you find them?!" Shu demands. "Geki. It's OK. Hear us out." Juspion reassures him. "We arrived at Remnant during a run-in with the Gen-Makuu," Diana explained. "Right. And the mothership was shot down, and the next thing we knew, we crash-landed here, in the Branwen camp." Yousuke added. "We were then taken in as hostages, like what happened to this young woman here." Ryusei concluded, pointing at Weiss.
"Why should we believe your point?" Yang asked her mom.
Raven takes another sip from her teacup before answering her daughter's question. "Now you're catching on. So far, you've done nothing but accept what others tell you. But you need to question everything. Otherwise, you'll end up as blind as Qrow..." She adds. Yang grits her teeth, eyes narrowing and seething. "...and your fool of a father."
Enraged, Yang fires Ember Celica at the table, completely obliterating it. Raven's teacup clatters across the floor, stopping where it hits the heel of her boot. Raven looks at her daughter and faintly smiles. Shu takes out the Video Beam Gun and fires a warning shot that barely misses Raven's head.
"Don't you dare talk about my family like that!" Yang raises her voice for emphasis. "What she said!" Shu and Geki exclaim at the same time.
"Guys! Calm down!" Ryusei tells them. "Yang, please." Weiss holds onto Yang's hand. "Listen to them, dear daughter. Your teammates never let you down before." Raven says. "Oh, you tell me!" Geki yells. "You don't know the first thing about her teammates! About us! You were never there for her, so knock some sense into yourself, will you?!" He adds. "Exactly! You LEFT US! WHY?!" Yang adds on to the anger.
Raven sighs. "I know more than you realize. Not just about you, and not just about what I've been told, but things I've seen with my OWN eyes. I know the Gimm have a leader. I know people who can come back from the dead. I know that Kai Hyuga is wounded, and I know that magic is real, and I can prove it."
She then snaps her fingers, using her semblance to open a portal to Mistral.
"Thank you." Shu snaps at her, before walking through the portal to Mistral. "Come on! Let's go!" He hollers. Ryusei, Juspion, Yousuke, and Diana follow. Yang gets onto Bumblebee with Weiss on the back seat, riding off. Geki is the last one to leave.
"Geki. I can tell that you like my daughter." Raven tells the new Gavan. "If you side with her uncle, I may not be as kind the next time we meet, and if you break her heart, I will break you. Understand?" Geki only nods. "Firstly, you weren't kind this time either, and secondly, you don't tell an Uchuu Keiji what to do." He says with seriousness in his tone before walking through the portal.
Meanwhile, back at Menagerie, Kai wakes up inside the Grand Birth, recovering from his injuries. "Sisi?" He calls out. "What the heck are you doing?" He asks, seeing his partner dressed as a nurse and treating his wounds. "Helping you heal, silly!" She giggles before wrapping the last bandage on his abdomen. "I'm fine, Sisi." Kai hisses in pain. "No, you're not, tough guy! Now, come on. Lemme treat you for a bit, OK?" Kai nods and lets Sisi do her work. "See? All done!" She chirps, patting his abdomen and kissing Kai on the tip of his nose. She then skips off to the cockpit. He sighs. "God, help me with this girl."
"Is she like that all the time?" Blake asks. "Yeah. You'll get used to it." Kai croaks before looking at the Sharivan suit in the process of being repaired. "Well, for a girl like Sisi, she's cute." Sun drools before being slapped on the head by Blake. "Ouch! Sorry..." He mutters. Suddenly, alarms blare off. "Sisi! What is it now?" He groans. "Did you blow up the microwave again?!"
"Nope!" Sisi reports. "It's Geki and Shu, and they have completed their mission! They also brought a few others, too!" She adds. "Then let's head there." Kai orders. "Wait," Blake says. "Yang is there, so I can't go." She mutters. "Why?" Sun asks. "Because it's your fault that you left her. Deal with it." Kai told Blake. "It's the truth, and it's your fault. Beat it." Kai added. "Hey, don't worry, OK? Look, there are plenty of fish in the sea. I'm sure you'll find one." Sun reassures her. "Thank you." Blake answers. "Alright, Sisi. Let's rendevous at Mistral."
"OK! Next stop! Mistral!" She cheers as the Grand Birth takes off into the blue sky, heading for Mistral.
