Hey all, So I love this idea so much. Throwing extra magic into RWBY I think is definitely some sort of trope by now, I still like the idea. anyway enough of my mindless pratalling, partially, but first to those that actually read these notes, thank you for letting me just mindlessly babble before each chapter. and without further Adieu

Two hours later Jace found out exactly who Glynda Goodwitch was and how she is on a bad day. Despite popular theories among the students she did not normally live on campus. She and Liliana didn't live to terribly far apart, and so it was easy to tell her Ozpin was up to something upon her retrieval of her headpiece. Once in the tower Liliana simply pulled out her scroll and sent Glynda a text. Back to the moment Glynda was yelling at Ozpin over another stupid decision, "And did you even put any thought into this?! You met him hours ago, I've never heard of him, and you are offering him and colleagues of his positions as teachers! Especially after that one tried to kill Liliana!"

As she said that, she gestured to the still frozen Kaya. Liliana couldn't help but smirk as Ozpin sat at his desk with a mug in his hand slowly sipping at it while Jace could hear his internal weeping. As she finally cooled down Glynda groaned saying "and about this one, what is wrong with her?"

"I have her frozen in her own mind." Jace spoke simply before saying "And I understand you are worried, but with the plan I have in store, Liliana will be ok and taken care of."

Sighing the blonde witch pushed her glasses up and rubbed her nose saying "Mr. Beleran. I would feel much better, if you were to explain your plan beyond, you have one."

Liliana sighed before patting her friends shoulder saying "Its ok Glynda, he's always been like this. Quiet and always playing close to his chest until it is needed. I trust him."

Looking back at the Raven-haired beauty Glynda nodded saying, "Alright. I still don't like it. And besides, what do you even mean by frozen in her own mind?"

Turning her attention back to the blue robe clad mage who nodded saying "I have magically sealed her consciousness in a state of suspended animation within the confines of her own mind."

Glynda nodded before saying "Ozpin, I was under the assumption you, the maidens, and her, were the last ones capable of magic."

Ozpin finally put his mug down saying "Normally that would be the case, however these individuals are unique. That is all I can say without the others present, which I want to involve Jace, and his compatriots in our little circle as well."

With a growing tick mark Glynda sighed saying "I need a drink."

"I agree. Jace be careful with whatever you are planning" Liliana gave a sympathetic look to Glynda before following her out the elevator as Jace simply nodded saying "When am I not?"

And the only answer he got was a knowing look from the Necromancer before the doors closed. "So. That was interesting."

Chuckling at Jace's comment Ozpin nodded saying "It was, so what do you require of me to put this plan of yours in motion?"

Jace looked back at the frozen Kaya saying "Nothing from you all. All I need is the headpiece."

He held up the golden crescent with a smile before he began the somewhat arduous journey back towards the emerald forest. Making his way back down the mountain Jace positioned Kaya back to how she was as he wove illusions to show Ozpin and Liliana and correcting his position before he released the spell holding Kaya feeling more drained then normal but put it off until later. Upon releasing them Kaya swung her daggers through 'Liliana's' neck that began to spurt blood while 'Ozpin' was restrained by Jace as Kaya looked back with a grin saying "Now that that's done, I believe I'll be taking this, you don't need it."

Picking up the Golden Arch and the remnants of the Chained Veil Kaya waved to Jace saying "See you later Jace. Thanks for the help."

Nodding to her as he watched her Planeswalk away knowing he had altered her memories to make this encounter the true course of events. As he released the illusions, beads of sweat shone over his forehead before trying to feel for the blue leylines this plane must have… only to feel next to nothing… Jace suddenly became very worried. Quickly using the last of his remaining mana to planeswalk back to Ravnica and his apartments he felt the surge of proper leylines refueling his reserves. Panting he couldn't help but be worried. What happened to that plane? Slowly making his way to his bed Jace closed his eyes in exhaustion before thinking 'Perhaps there's a better reason to bring the Gatewatch to remnant then to be teachers. Heh. Now to find them.'

The next day when he woke up Jace stretched and fixed himself some food before thinking over who of the Gatewatch he should go after first. The obvious answer was also the easiest one to find, the Elven Animist Nissa Revane. She would be able to help heal the plane of remnant and be able to help find the other two. Once he was prepared for a trip to Zendikar he planeswalked away from his apartments on Ravnica fading away in a Labyrinthine show of blue lights.

-The plane of Zendikar-

As his body reconstituted itself in the lush jungles of Zendikar Jace looked around feeling the raw mana that surged throughout the plane. He then focused his mind and focused on going towards what he knew was Joraga territory within the Jungles of Bala Ged. Moving through the dense undergrowth Jace focused his mind of sensing Sentient minds. After about three hours of searching and sending his illusions out he found what he was looking for, an Elemental construct from his Elven friend. Moving up to the living mass of land and vegetation he was careful not to act aggressively before saying "Nissa. Can you hear me through this creature? If you can, I have something we need to discuss."

The large creatures 'Face' turned towards the much shorter humanoid before vines and trees began to move and adjust their positions as the beautiful woman walked through the new clearing saying "Hello, Jace. What brings you to my homeland?"

Her soft voice always surprised Jace by how ferociously she fought in battle, but he smiled saying "Hello Nissa, I found Liliana."

The elf simply looked at him before sneering "And what does that have to do with me? Did you find her before or after Kaya?"

"After actually. She was the one who brought me to her. They are both very much alive. But the reason I've come here is to tell you about the plane Liliana is residing on. Something is wrong with it. When there it felt… drained. As if it was dying. You are the best person I know that can help it." Looking at her and watching her sneer melt into a more inquisitive expression saying, "What do you mean it felt like it was dying?"

Nodding he said "Upon casting spells I was incredibly exhausted. And when I searched for the leylines to replenish myself as normal… they felt as if they weren't there. As if someone has ripped the leylines from the plane itself."

Nissa listened and Jace didn't need to be a telepath to tell she was horrified at such a prospect before saying "When do we go?"

He smiled as he watched the elven animist draw her staff and prepare to go out as he said "first we gather Ajani and Chandra, then we return to Remnant. Do you have any ideas where they could be?"

Thinking back over the past several months Nissa had not left the plane but remembered that a time just after the war that Chandra had visited, and accidentally torched a grove. She seemed very distraught at the time to the elf before she said, "Perhaps she returned to her home of Kaladesh?"

"Then we'll begin our search there." Jace smiles to Nissa as he slowly dissipates again planeswalking to Kaladesh as Nissa quickly follows suit.

-On the Plane of Kaladesh-

Small thopters and large mechanical beasts moved elegantly through the streets while humans, elves, and many other Races milled about their daily lives, however the lovely curving architecture was not as peaceful as many would like to admit. Specifically, within one particular residence of Kaladesh. The home of Pia Nalaar was the site of a tense standoff, The matron of the house and Mother of the hot blooded Pyromancer Chandra, Pia Nalaar kneeled next to a demonic figure as her face was twisted into one filled with remorse and agony and many other negative emotions as the figure held his hand over her head, red light pouring out like a miasma around her head. On the other side of the room Ajani Goldmane held back an enraged Chandra to his own detriment as the heat coming from her ablaze hair and hands caused the white furred Leonin to wince in pain, "Let her go you son of a bitch!"

The demonic figure was Tibalt, a former human now corrupted by the devils native to his homeplane into a half-devil humanoid with red skin and horns with black hair and a rather stylish Victorian outfit with a cruel smile he chuckled. Tightening his 'grasp' above Pia's head the older woman cried out as Tibalt's expression was one of pleasure and curiosity saying, "Now now dear Chandra don't do anything hasty. Mm, such anguish and pain. If you wish to have your mother free, then simply come with me."

Chandra growled as Ajani continued to channel his own magic into the young Pyromancer to try and calm the raging inferno building within her. Ajani had found Chandra here on Kaladesh a month back, distraught and somewhat broken, she had found peace with the defeat the Gatewatch suffered on Amonkhet but then fell under siege by the empathic attacks the devil man before them was proficient at. Coming here he helped her regain her will only to have this happen. Chandra was at a breaking point and both other Planeswalkers knew it, she was forced to watch her mother being tortured by the man that had attacked her while deep in her she knew he would do far worse to her if nothing changed. As her eyes lit with rage Tibalt smiled in euphoric pleasure feeling all these emotions before a blue light surrounded Chandra's head and Vines began to force their way up through the floor from beneath Tibalt.

Walking into the residence was a blue robed mage and a green leather wearing Elf both with their eyes alight with their respective mana colors. Chandra's inferno of rage slowly calmed thanks to Jace's mind manipulations and Tibalt was bound by strong green vines, flinging him against a wall as he hissed in pain, he glared at the two newcomers saying, "Hmph, such party poopers."

His devilish features simply gave him an evil visage as Pia collapsed to the ground before she was covered by her daughter crying tears of rage as she glared at the bound Tibalt. Ajani patted Jace's shoulder before saying "What will you do to him Friend Nissa?"

The anger in the elf's features were clear as day as she weaved mana into the vines giving them elemental life as the newly born vine elemental gripped the empath with inhuman strength as he squirmed and each time he tried to conjure a spell Jace's own spell craft countered it. "how is your mother Chandra?"

Her normally soft voice was hard as Chandra gently held her mother, her red hair now calm and normal as she tried to get a reaction gently patting her cheek simply saying her name again and again, before Tibalt spoke up, "Hehe, I think I broke her, oh no~"

His voice was enough to cause whatever restrained was left within the pyromancer to snap as she flew into a rage intent on sending her flame born spear into the Fiend Blooded planeswalker. As the flaming bolt of rage slammed into Tibalt, the expected result was a dead man burning to ash, but he simply cackled as the vine elemental burned to cinder as he was unharmed saying, "Poor girl, don't you remember your flames don't hurt me"

As that happened and before the others could stop him, the cruel torturer fled away into a cloud of ash and brimstone planeswalking away. As he vanished Chandra broke down into tears before returning to her unresponsive mother, cradling Pia in her arms Jace grit his teeth. Ajani slammed a large fist into the frame of the doorway cracking it as a low rumbling growl echoed from his chest before Nissa knelt next to her friend and gently laid her hands on the sobbing Pyromancer before she said "Jace, is there anything you can do with your Mind Magic?"

Looking over his friends and fellow Gatewatch members Jace shook his head saying, "I don't know, but I can try… Chandra?"

Looking towards the Mind Mage with his hood down Chandra's eyes stung from the free-flowing tears before saying "Please… if there's… if there's a chance… please."

Her voice shook the members of Gatewatch, Chandra was brash and always full of happiness. Now it sounded broken and full of sorrow, only fueling a fire within the Blue mage as he slowly knelt next to Chandra and gently placed a hand coated in Blue mana as his eyes flashed blue, he entered Pia Nalaar's mind. A tense several minutes pasted as Pia's rigid body relaxed and her eyes closed from their previous state of what appeared to be eternal fear, now relaxed and calm. Jace slowly pulled his hand away as he took a deep breathe saying, "I don't know if that will be enough to fix the damage done by Tibalt… but she will at least be able to rest easily for now, we need to take her to a healer. I erased her memories of today… I'm sorry such a thing happened Chandra."

His sad eyes gazed at hers who could only look thankful saying, "Thank you… you have at least given her a chance to return to herself. Thank you."

Picking her mother up in her arms Chandra slowly strode out of the residence, Nissa following close by. Ajani stood behind with Jace placing a large hand on the smaller man's shoulder saying, "How bad was it Friend Jace?"

"It's as I said, I don't know if I could fix the damage… she was broken from so much empathic energy and all I did was erase the initial trauma but… we will just have to wait and see." Nodding at the answer Ajani then said, "Why did you come here in the first place? You couldn't have known about this."

Giving a lighthearted chuckle in this tense moment Jace said, "We can talk about that later, for now let's go and make sure Chandra is ok."

Giving an equally light-hearted laugh Ajani nodded. Leaving the Nalaar home the two men followed the women towards the healers. Finding a hospital Chandra explained what happened to the best of her ability to the nurses before they assured her that her mother would be taken care of. Slowly moving the young Pyromancer out towards the entrance of the hospital Ajani finally spoke saying, "Now Friend Jace, Friend Nissa. Why did you come to Kaladesh?"

Looking between each other Jace spoke up saying "I came to bring the Gatewatch together to save a plane from something. I don't know what exactly happened to it, but it is a force that reminds me of the Eldrazi… but far more destructive."

That caught Chandra and Ajani's attention, Ajani had been told about the great titans from the Blind Eternities and he was told how they devoured the mana and the very planes themselves where they passed leaving madness, destruction, and warped reality in their wake, something worse than those monstrosities was troubling. "There is a plane named Remnant. Reaching the plane is not the problem… the very leylines of the Plane feel as if they have been torn asunder."

Now that frightened the two planeswalkers as the Leylines were the very things that allowed Mages to wield mana and allowed the plane to live normally, for something to destroy such things… was devastating, and should it find a way off of Remnant… Ajani said "Lead the way Friend Jace, you have my help in figuring out what is wrong."

Turning her attention back to the hospital they just left Chandra chewed on her lip for a second before steeling herself saying "Mine as well. I worry about my mother but this… this can't be ignored, heh. Seems the Gatewatch is back in action already huh?"

Jace smiled saying "Yes, it is. Follow me then, oh and one more thing. We are all going to be teachers at and academy for warriors and Lilliana is already there."

As he said that statement quickly, he faded out with his planeswalking ability activating keeping him from answering the surprised expressions of his friends before Chandra growled saying "JAACE!"

As she stormed forward towards where he was, she exploded into the fireball of her own planeswalking as the two remaining simply sighed, Nissa fading into a green light like before as Ajani walked into a shower of golden light. Unknown to them was a fifth figure listening into them, Tibalt had easily escaped and returned to listen "Mmmm… a new plane? And such destruction? Hehe, I think I may join you all, it sounds like fun~"

As he chuckled darkly to himself, he planeswalked away into the same cloud of ash and brimstone as before following them.

So to my fellow MtG fans, I know the general underwhelming belief of what Tibalt is. Look into his backstory! It is fucking intense and dark as hell, had he not been received initially so badly, oh my gosh he could and might just be becoming one of the major big bads in the story. Anyway enough of that rant. Like I said before this is a very fun idea, and I love it so far, and everyone don't worry there is plenty more in my other fictions as well, i just want to catch this one up to a similar stopping point before continuing with the others. I enjoy keeping pace with projects.

On to Review shout outs

The Baz: Liliana is not a Necromancer who specializes in Souls, she is more the undead horde style. The interaction with souls was just her uncontrolled magic sinking into the area, plus since Grimm eat the bodies (as far as we know) there wouldn't be corpses for her to reanimate in the Emerald Forest. And as for the controlling Grimm she wouldn't be able to do that, Its said explicitly in the show that Grimm are the only creature Without souls. So while that is a great idea, I unfortunately can't use it.

So until next time all, This Celt is out.
