A/N I'm happy to say that it's almost summer just a month and a few more days to go so I will spend time mostly on typing and fixing mistakes. Also can't wait for the rest of Red vs Blue season 15. And if it turns out Oscar from Volume 4 gets with Ruby then that may be a little problem with how my story ends. But I will adjust anyway, let's get back to the story. Don't worry Blake is not alone. 2 friends will a company her.

Blake was on a large barge heading to her specific location, she was traveling alone, all by herself, just the way she preferred it. She was enjoying the sea water flowing around the boat, along with the little kids running past her, it made her feel free and at peace.

She was enjoying her personal time when out of nowhere she heard a hefty medium sized man approach her, "Traveling alone?" Blake quickly reached for the Gamboul Shroud on her back facing her assumed attacker, only to find it was the captain of the boat. He put his hands up in air to show no harm, "Now, now. No threat here, just came to chat."

Blake released the grip on her kitana as she rolled her eyes, "And, Why is that?"

The captain let out a deep sigh before continuing his reason, "Well, not many people travel by boat on their own, it can be quite a lonely voyage, but I found that those that do tend to have the more...interesting stories."

Blake went back to her spot on the railing, "Maybe it's just better, for some people to be alone." Blake jumped up as she heard kids running behind her.

The captain laughed at her paranoid behavior, "Maybe, but with your paranoia I'm sure a few friendly faces wouldn't hurt."

Blake got slightly upset when he said that, "Who's says I'm paranoid."

The captain chuckled one more time, "No one, dear. No one. I'll leave you be." Just as the captain was leaving he stopped himself to give one last saying, "But uh, fair warning: these trips can be awfully boring."

When he was out of sight, she reached on top of her head and grabbed the bow and untied it revealing her cat ears. She held it over the end of the railing, "Won't be needing this." She released it having it fall into the cold icy sea.

As she walked away three cloaked figures were around her, one was staring straight at her in a brown cloak. The third was standing with his back underneath the stairs at the back end of the ship, wearing an orangish hoodie sweatshirt and black jeans, he was big and husky and had something next to him on the floor in a duffel bag. The other was staring off into the sea wearing a purple trench coat with a button up underneath just barely visible over his tie. He had something covered up behind his back, he was shorter than the second guy by at least 3 to 4 inches.

The bow Blake had discarded in the sea had suddenly been taken off by a huge black dorsal fin in the icy waters.


[Later that same day]

Blake seem that she hadn't removed from her spot on the ledge where she was thinking what move to make now. Just as she was leaving she saw the 1st shadowy figure from before on the wooden deck just above her. She just reached for her kitana and faced her dark cloaked figure, "Who's there?"

Just then her cloaked follower turned around and disappeared on the top deck, she had her eyes trained on that one spot. She was so focused on her target she had not noticed that a huge black dorsal fin was arising from the water, not too far from the ship, making a huge wave crash against the ship.

Slowly, but suddenly a huge shadow casted over the entire ship, as it did a sailor at the top of the boat shouted, "Red Alert!" Sounding an alarm.

The captain of the ship headed out to the front of the ship to see the monster, "By the Gods." He looked up to see a towering water serpent Grimm (don't know what the name is) on the side of the ship. He was not going to be intimidated easily, "All hands to battle stations!"

One of his crew members began to doubt his actions, "Sir, we've never fought a Grimm this big."

He lifted his hat up turning back to the monster, "We've never seen something this big. But we'll give her a fight nonetheless."

Blake got her battle face ready as she jumped off the deck of the ship and used her shadow ability to propel herself forward to the monster. She hooked her sword onto the sea serpent as she swung herself behind it shooting it in the face, she then launched herself around and back onto the deck. The monster was about to smash her and the ship when the captain spun the wheel avoiding the devastation. The monster then spun around the ship wrapping around it finally appearing on one side, as it popped up Blake lassoed it's horn and began to attack the beast with multiple slashes. She was about to deliver the final blow when the captain brought out the side canons making the force push back against Blake.

The captain was inside getting new defenses ready, "Hold steady men, it's not done with us yet. Get the heavy canon loaded!" The front of the ship had opened up and revealed a large canon. The beast must have switched strategies as it revealed that it was more than just a sea serpent, it was a sea dragon. It's dorsal fins closed in and opened up for its huge massive wings to be exposed, which items flapped sending a huge gust of wind against the ship. "Heavy canon open fire!" Before the crew could fire the canon the beast was preparing an energy blast.

From Blake's position things were looking pretty Grimm (that pun doe/couldn't resist), until one of the cloaked figures became her not so cloaked saviour. "Sun!?" Sun had returned, and just in the right moment to help Blake, as he activated his semblance to create multiple versions of himself to hold the sea serpent Grimm as his cloans grabbed the beast's whiskers. After the ship had been saved from the blast Blake had a question enter her mind, "What are you doing here?"

Sun who was struggling to hang on to the beast's whiskers tried to play it off cool, "Uh you know uh just uh hanging out!"

Just as Blake was about to leap off the ship to assist her friend a tall orange hooded man place his hand to her side, pushing her out of the way, "Hey watch it!" Blake said.

The man reached in his bag to grab something, "Relax, I got this!" He pulled out a grenade launcher with a curved blade in the back of it. He took his hood off to show a chubby cheeked tanned teen with bits of beard stumbles on his face, his hair looked like it hadn't been combed in a while.

Blake remembered him from the fall of Beacon as the man who saved her life, "Grif?"

"Yep, now back up this thing's got a kick," He fired letting 4 shells go straight to the side of the beast. Sun had went flying off the dragon from the blast, launching him towards a pile of stacked up rocks on the water.

Blake had to help Sun, so without hesitation she lept onto the ledge and swung herself from the top of the boat towards Sun. She had caught him mid air, Sun was relieved, "My hero!"

Blake was still upset, "You're not supposed to be here."

"Yeah, well it looks like you could use all the help you can get." Sun said gesturing towards the dragon, which was about to blast the ship.

The grenade shooting Grif did his best to hold it back, "Guys can use a hand over here!" Just as it was about to blast the ship two rockets came from behind and suppressed the shot, "What the fuck?"

"Oh please," A voice that was new but familiar came into play as a purple trench coated man approached the front of the ship. "The only thing needed for this monster is a bath, in his own blood, which I am providing the bath bombs."

"Doc!?"

"Yep Grif," The now normal Dufranse said, "I hopped on board this boat looking for peace..." O'malley took over real quick, "But instead I got something much, much better than that."

"Okaaay..." Grif redirected his attention to Blake and Sun, "Hey you two gonna help?"

Blake answered from far away, "Just shut up and fight."

Sun hung back for a bit, "Yes ma'am."

The captain on board the ship was working aimlessly to fight the beast, but his crew gave nothing but bad news, "Sir, starboard defenses are down."

He was not going down without a fight, "We still got the heavy canon?"

"Aye sir, but it's moving too fast, we can't land a hit!"

He paused to think of another option, "What about the engines?"

His first mate tapped the touchscreen table, "Fully functional captain."

"Well alright then."

Blake had hopped on the ship right in front of Grif and Doc and about to block another blast, but it had been deflected by Sun just in time. The captain has stepped out of the captain's quarters and had given the huntsmen, not including Grif or Doc, a pointer for the fight. "Huntsman! If you can clip it's wings and draw it out towards the bow, we can take it!"

Sun and Doc stared at Blake and Grif for a few seconds til Sun made a valid point, "Well, you two do have the blades. So..."

Blake and Grif grunted at the point, as Sun had jumped off the front of the ship to give Blake a path towards the flying dragon. Grif looked up and made two important arguments, "Nope, no way, fuck that, there is no way I'm going up there, besides how?"

Doc got a devious grin as he pulled out a high strength military cable, while Grif had his back turned Doc attached one part of the cable to Grif's back and another part to a rocket. Grif got a little concerned but Doc tried to relax him, "Don't worry Grif, this won't hurt a bit." Grif got more scared when he heard O'malley talking, "This is going to hurt a lot." And Doc had shot the rocket in the air.

Grif saw the rocket fly out of the barrel pulling a wrapped up rope and let out sigh, "Son of a..." He was pulled so fast he let out "BIIIIIIIIIIIITCH!" As he was shot up in the sky.

He had cut the cord with the blade of his Grifshot as he began to plummet back down to earth at an amazing acceleration, probably because of his weight. He had evened out his fall as he fell at same pace, aiming for the other wing she wouldn't hit. She had sliced part of the red scaly wing and had crippled it's right side, while Grif stuck his blade out in front of him tearing through the left wing like a rock through paper. As Blake was falling a blonde haired teen with a monkey tail came to her rescue, Sun had caught her in his arms, "Now this is where you say it." Sun had claimed.

The two were distracted by Sun's self ego, that they had failed to notice sea dragon Grimm smashing the rocks attempting to eat them. They were hopping from rock to rock trying to stay just ahead of the jaws of death from the dragon gaining on them. The captain saw they were in trouble and had come to their aid by accelerating the ship towards them, O'malley a.k.a Doc was also getting ready as he loaded up a special pair of rockets. For some reason the dragon was following Sun way more than Blake, just as it was about to clamp it's jaws shut and eat him an orange blur fell on top of the monster's head.

It stared at the three readying it's yellow electrical blast from its mouth as Grif, Blake, and Sun had stood there hopeless. Just then the ship had rammed into the beast's belly and at the same time the canon and Doc's rocket launcher both impacted the beast at the same time, exploding it to smithereens. Sun had heard celebration on board the ship and though this was a good time to celebrate, "Ah hah, Up top." He held his hand up to Blake waiting for a high five. Instead she smacked him straight across the face, knocking the taste out of his mouth.

Grif was relieved it wasn't him, "Yes, finally, a perfect plan where someone else gets hurt but me." Blake looked at him with a the same angered look she looked at Sun with leaving Grif confused, "What?" Without warning she brought her foot back and time seemed to slow for Grif as he remembered what to come next, "Nooooooo!" A loud cracking noise was heard through the whole ocean as Grif grabbed his crotch in pain, "What is everyone's problem with my balls!?"


[Later aboard the ship]

Sun had been comforting a couple as they walked away after thanking them, "Oh no, it's alright, enjoy your voyage."

Blake had questions in mind for each of them, "What are you doing here Sun? And Grif and Doc goes the same for you too."

Sun began to ignore her question and pointed out some of her changes, "Nice outfit by the way, I never liked the bow anyway."

Blake wanted an answer now, "Sun!? Have you been following me?"

Sun's face had straightened out a bit, "I saw you run off, the night Beacon tower fell. Once we landed in Vale you made sure everyone was okay. Then you just took off without saying a word."

Blake seemed to be satisfied with the answer as her face was feeling regret for her harsh words, She then turned to Grif and Doc, to find Doc doing yoga and Grif on a lounge chair he somehow found. She still hadn't heard their excuse, "What about you guys? We barely know each other, what's your excuse?"

Grif was leaning back on the chair, he took a drink of a orangish fruit drink with a tiny umbrella he somehow found before answering, "I never had time away from Sarge, so I'm on vacation. That's my excuse."

Doc rubbed the back of his head admitting two reasons for leaving, "Okay so, one reason was because I wanted to relax and harmonize. The other was to get from that psycho Dr. Grey. Don't tell her I'm here, please. Anyway why did you leave? That's more like something Church would do."

Blake had forgotten the reason why she had left, "It's just better this way. You guys probably wouldn't understand."

Sun spoke up trying to level with her, "No I get it. The moment you left I knew exactly what you were doing..." There was a small pause as everyone thought he finally understood. Until he opened his mouth again, "You're going on a one woman rampage against the White Fang."

Everyone's face fell as he finished and they all replied with the same question, "What?"

Sun wasn't finished giving an explanation, "You always felt like the White Fang was your fight. They show up, trash your school, hurt your friends; it makes perfect sense."

Grif sighed as the answer was obvious to even him, "You're a fucking idiot."

Sun stood proudly thinking he knew the answer, "But there's no way I'm letting you do this alone. It's an honorable approach, for sure, but you're gonna need someone to watch your back. And that's where I come in. Us faunus got to stick together after all."

Blake finally gave the clueless Sun a hint, "You're wrong Sun. You're so...so wrong. I'm Not going anywhere near the White Fang. Not yet."

Sun stood there still confused, "Seriously?"

"I have some things that I need to sort out."

"Then why not do it with your team? Your friends?"

"You're one to talk. Assuming Neptune, Sage and Scarlet aren't hiding below deck."

"You really think I can get Neptune out on the Ocean? They flew back to Mistral, I told them I'd catch up. Not the first time I left them to take a boat. So... It you're not going after the White Fang, where are you going?"

Blake looked out into the moon thinking about her answer, "Home. In Menagerie."

Sun crossed his arms, "Well, I'm coming with you. The Grimm are getting worse, you saw it for yourself. And just because you're not going after the White Fang, doesn't mean they won't be coming for you. Besides, I'm kinda already on the boat."

Blake sighed knowing there was no answer that would change his mind. "There's really no stopping you is there?"

"Nope. This is going to be great! Never been to Menagerie before. That will be a regular journey to the east. Yeah, I like the sound of that."

Blake turned to Doc and Grif knowing that they had a choice, "What about you two?"

Doc spoke up first, "Well, who knows you might need a medical officer just in case of emergencies."

All eyes turned to Grif in his lounge chair, as he finished another sip from his cup he let out a small sigh, "Do I have a choice?"

And so the four headed off into the new land of Menagerie, what will happen next.
