Ironwood twisted the capsule in his hand as he observed the bullet it contained. There was a scowl on his face.

"And you're sure about this?" Ironwood asked.

"Considering it was the bullet the doctor handed us after the surgery," Ozpin commented.

"We were lead to believe they were all destroyed," Glynda growled.

"They were," The general retorted. "I oversaw the disposal myself, along with the blueprints,"

"Isn't that convenient," The blonde teacher muttered.

"Glynda," Ozpin warned. Glynda scowled but held her tongue. "As you can see she's not in the mood for any lies,"

"They're not," Ironwood defended. "There's only one person who knows how to make them and he's been focused on other projects,"

"You mean-" Ozpin began. Ironwood nodded in confirmation.

"And you know as well as I do that he didn't want to make them in the first place,"

Ozpin nodded in agreement.

"What I'm more concerned about is why your student was shot," Ironwood pointed out. As if on cue two files were given too him by Glynda.

"While he technically wasn't the intended target, another one of my other students was," Ozpin explained as Ironwood looked through the files. One of them had a picture of Naruto. He was giving the camera a bloodthirsty grin and the middle finger too the camera.

"He seems like a trouble maker," Ironwood noted.

"Him and his team," Glynda muttered under her breath. Ironwood opened the other file to see Ruby giving the camera a shy smile. "Isn't this Summer and Tai-Yang's daughter,"

"Yes," Ozpin nodded. "Qrow trained her," Ironwood grunted at the name in displeasure but didn't say anything else. "I would like to get to the bottom of this as soon as possible," Ozpin stated. Then he noticed the light on the elevator. "But we can finish this later," Ozpin ended.

The elevator open and a group of people walked out.

"Long time no see Ozzy," One man greeted with an easy smile.

"Be respectful," The woman next to him reprimanded. "Don't embarrase me,"

"I see you two haven't changed," Another girl said while the boy on her right chuckled and the one on her left sighed.

"Her Ozpin, Glynda," Kimball greted with ease.

"Shouldn't we greet our boss first," The man next to her pointed out.

"We're the guests here Doyle," Kimball drawled. "Besides we see him all the time,"

"I don't care for your rebellious attitude," Doyle muttered.

"And I don't care for you but here we are," Kimball bit back.

"Now now that's enough," Ozpin said with clear amusement in his voice.

"Now that you're all here we can begin,"

(OPENING END)

UMPR

Ruby looked at the three people in front of her with narrowed eyes.

Weiss looked confused. Easy target.

Blake looked uniterested. One hit would make her go away.

Yang looked back at her with a challenging smirk.

Hmmm.

"Why the hell am I here?"

Ruby looked to the companion sitting next to her.

"Because Nico," Ruby said then turned back to her game.

"That didn't answer my question," He commented with a tic mark.

Ruby looked at her opponents. Taking out the other two would be easy but her sister was a whole other story.

But she needed to think tactically. She needed to be smart.

Yang blew raspberries at her.

Caution to the wind then.

"Alright Yang Xiao-Long prepare for war!" Ruby roared.

"Come at me!" Yang countered as she pumped her fists.

The battle began.

"I deploy the Atlesian Air Fleet!" Ruby exclaimed. Yang gasped in mock horror. "This allows me to fly right over your Ursai hordes, as well as the mountains protecting Mistral," She continued. "Thus allowing me to bomb your capital directly,"

"You monster!" Yang shouted looking at her little sister indignantly.

"And since Mantle is part of my kingdom, my repair time is only one turn," Ruby said smugly. But her smile was short live once she saw the look on her sister's face.

"Pretty sneaky, sis," Yang chuckled before pulling out a card. "But you just activated my trap card!" Yang exclaimes turning the card over. Ruby gasped in horror at the card.

"Giant Nevermore!" Ruby hissed.

"That's right!" Yang said slamming the card in the table. "If I roll a seven or higher, it will attack your fleet and completely destroy it!"

Ruby narrowed her eyes. She had already used her railgun attack card so she had to wait two more turns for it to cool down. All she could do now was wait.

"Good move tyrant," Ruby mocked. "But, if you roll a six or lower, the Nevermore will attack you instead," She hissed. "And when it does me and my trusty general will be there to take your kingdom by storm." She said laying a hand on Nico's shoulder.

"Don't touch me,"

"That's just a chance I'm willing to take," Yang retorted. "You and your general can come at me anytime,"

"Don't include me damnit," Nico growled as the sisters glared at each other.

Ruby watched the dice roll in slow motion.

"NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Ruby cried!

"Guessing it didn't go well for Ruby," Roxas muttered not looking away from the book in his hand.

"Libraries aren't meant to be used like this," Ren groaned.

"Well, what about that?" Roxas asked looking over at a snoring Nora.

"No," Ren sighed.

"And that?" Roxas loked over at Jaune and Naruto who were staring each other down while standing in strange poses.

Naruto swiped for one of Jaune's hands but Jaune managed to move his hand out of the way. Naruto stayed in that position looking up at the older blond with narrowed eyes. Jaune swung his arm and managed to hit Naruto's left hand.

"Damnit!" Naruto scowled. He put the arm behind him and kept the other one out.

"What are you guys doing?" Pyrrha asked.

"It's a game we invented," Naruto answered as he swiped his right and out and smacked Jaunes.

"The goal is to hit the other playes hands but you can only move once," Jaune explained.

"We call it Ninja," Naruto said.

"Well that's nice and all," Pyrrha said. "But I believe you need to study Jaune,"

"Almost done Pyrrha," Jaune said as he swiped for Naruto who dodged.

"Would you like to spar this evening," Pyrrha asked.

"Studying sounds awesome!" Jaune squeaked as he zipped over to his seat and opened a history book. Pyrrha smiled.

"Wimp," Naruto muttered.

"By the way where is the rest of your team?" Pyrrha asked the blond leader.

"Oh Caboose went off to search for Penny, and Percy's in the room at the moment," Nico perked up at the name mentioned. Did they mean…

"He-Weiss it's your turn to get stomped," He was interrupted by Yang as she looked over at The heiress.

Weiss Schnee glared at the cards in her hand intensely. Her eyes storming from concentration. She could feel their eyes boring into her…watching…waiting for her to fail. She'd prove thm wrong! She was heir to the greatest Dust company in history. She wouldn't fall here! Despite her dilemma. He dilemma being-

"I can't believe you've never played this game," Naruto said over her shoulder.

"Shut up!" Weiss growled at the humanoid grimm. "I'm strategizing,"

"You're stalling," Yang countered without missing a beat.

"She's right," Naruto said. "And the fact that I'm agreeing with her should be very concerning," He added pointing to himself and the buxom brawler.

"Yeah which means hell must have frozen over," Yang mentioned.

"Both of you shut up," Weiss hissed, trying her best to keep the winning out. She looked at the board and then her cards. Ok, so Ruby just lost her air fleet so that meant that Solitas's borders were fairly weak right now, however, she had a setup around Vacuo boxing Blake in. But Yang had the advantage overall since she now had a direct line of attack for Vale, which meant…what?

She hated this game.

"Ok how about a freebie," Yang said. Weiss looked over at Yang in shock.

Naruto could SEE the negative intentions rolling off Yang.

Nico rolled his eyes.

Ruby groaned.

'I know how this is going to play out,' The three thought simultaneously.

"Ok let me see," Yang said looking at the W of RWBY's hand. "Ok so you're playing as Vacuo which means that all Vacuo-based cards come with a bonus,"

Weiss nodded her head.

"Ok let's see, Sandstorm, Desert Scavenge, Gorilla Warfare…" Yang muttered as she looked through Weiss's cards. Then her eyes spotted one in particular. "Resourceful Raider! Nice! See, now you can take Ruby's discarded Air Fleet –"

Ruby latched onto Nico and began sobbing. "Nooooo!"

"Let me go damnit," Nico grouched.

"I need comfort!"

"—and put it in your hand!" Yang continued ignoring her crying sister.

Weiss nodded again.

"And since Vacuo warriors have an endurance against Natural-based hazards, you can use Sandstorm to disable my ground forces and simultaneously infiltrate my kingdom with sleeper agents!" Yang cheered. Then she glared at The fencer this narrowed eyes. "But I will remember this attack, and I will respond in kind to this show of force,"

Weiss nodded again.

"…You have no idea what that means do you," Naruto asked.

"I do!" Weiss defended. The whiskered teen raised an eyebrow. "Shut up!"

"It means you're just three moves away from conquering Remnant!" Ruby wept before going back to sobbing in Nico's shoulder.

Nico's eye twitched in irritation.

Weiss blinked.

Then she grinned.

Then she laughed.

Naruto could TASTE the negative emotions coming off of her.

"FOOLS!" She began as she stood up. "Now is the time for you to understand who stands above you. Surrender as we destroy your armies! Fear as we pillage your homes! Weep as we take your children! And BOW as you become my slaves! HAHAHAH-trap card,"

Weiss blinked at the card in her face.

Then she blinked again.

Then just to be sure she blinked again.

"Huh?"

"Your armies have been destroyed,"

'And she crashes,' Nico and Naruto think simultaneously.

Weiss sat back into her chair and looked at the table. She wasn't gonna cry…She began shaking. She wasn't gonna cry… Her eyes began watering…She wasn't… She felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up to see her partner and leader giving her a meaningful look.

Then they embraced and began balling there eyes out. The sun shined down on them bringing hope. The flowers surrounding them bloomed beautifully. Truly a heart warming scene.

"We'll make it through these trying times!" Ruby encouraged.

"I don't want your pity!" Weiss sobbed as she pulled her partner in closer.

'Huh,' Naruto thought. 'Know what not even gonna ruin it,' It was kinda touching.

"Did anyone else see them in a flower meadow with a sun shining on them?" A voice asked.

The group turned to see Thalia walking in the library.

"I did," Naruto answered the female of the group's question.

"Very touching,"

"I concur,"

"I didn't know you knew big words," Ruby commented between sobs.

"I didn't know you were sucha crybaby," Naruto snapped.

"Shut it heathen!" Weiss shouted defending her partner.

"Bring it I'll take you both on," Naruto growled.

"As much fun as that would be to see," Yang drawled. "I believe it's my partners turn," She said looking over at Blake.

The group looked over at Blake who had a far off look in her eyes.

"Blake," Ruby called waving her hand in the dark haired girls face. Blake blinked a few times realizing there was movement in her vision.

"Huh," She looked up and at her leader as if noticing her for the first time.

"You ok," ruby asked in concern. "You seem distracted.

"I'm fine," Blake said.

"You sure," Blake looked at the sincerity in Ruby's eyes and returned a gentle smile. She shouldn't worry the girl again. Not after what happened last semester.

"Yeah I am," Blake reassured. "Juat a little distracted,"

"That's good to hear," Jaune said walking over to the table. "What are you guys playing anyway,"

"Remnant," Ruby explained. "First to conquer all kingdoms wins,"

"Sounds fun,"

"Only if your winning," Weiss groaned.

"Maybe I could get in a turn," Jaune shrugged

"Only four players per game," Ruby explained.

"Which begs the question on why you won't let me leave," Nico glared over at Ruby.

"Emotional support," She said. Nico's vein began throbbing

"Besides this game involves a certain level of skill, and intelligence that I seriously doubt you have," Weiss scoffed at the blond knight.

"Yet he's a leader of a team," Naruto said.

"Oh burn!" Thalia whooped sliding over and giving him a high five.

"How dare you!" Weiss hissed.

"Don't hate me the leader, Hate the game," Thalia shrugged

"HA!" Naruto barked.

"Besides I'm a great strategist," Jaune said smugly. "Pyrrha says so,"

"Jaune, studying," Pyrrha said.

"C'mon just one turn," Jaune pleaded.

"I will not trust the safety of my people in your hands," Weiss said hotly.

"C'mon you've trusted me with way more important stuff," Jaune argued.

"Oh yeah like what," Weiss scoffed.

"Well like the fact that Blake is a-" Naruto swooped in and punched him in the gut.

"Really fun person," Pyrrha picked up appearing next to her fallen leader.

Blake glared at all of them.

"It was Naruto!" Weiss defended quickly.

"Me!" Naruto shouted. "Ruby was the one gushing about how scratching behind her ears make her purr when she sleeps!" Blake whirled on her leader with wide eyes.

"I was just curious!" Ruby defended. "And Yang was the one that was making weird jokes emphasizing pussy cats," Blake glared over at her partner.

"Percy was the one that wondered if you had a tail!" Yang defended. Blake looked over at Percy-

-Who wasn't there. Blakes attention went right back to Yang.

"Damnit!" The Y of RWBY clicked her teeth. "Ruby told first!"

"Hey!" Ruby shouted. She looked over at Blake. "Well that's technically true she said slowly," The cat faunus continued staring at her. "Nico save me!" She shouted hiding behind the Haven student.

"Don't drag me into your messes," Nico groaned looking at the mixed haired girl.

"Wow she really attached to you," Yang muttered observing the interaction between her sister and the Mistralian.

"I can't believe my cousin is making friends," Thalia said wiping away a fake tear.

"I'm not," Nico grouched. "She just won't leave me alone,"

"Wait you guys are cousins," Naruto asked.

"Yeah," Pyrrha answered. "These two and Percy are related thought they didn't know about Nico until later,"

"Don't forget Hazel and Jason," The punk girl added. "The five of us are family,"

"And Sophia," Nico added.

"Yeah Nico especially loves her," Thalia said giving a cheesey grin to her cousin.

"Shut up,"

"Sounds like you losers are having fun," The group turned to see Sun and Neptune walk over to them.

"Hey Sun," Ruby greeted.

"Hey everyone," Sun greeted. "Ice Queen," He added looking at Weiss.

"That is not my name!" Weiss shouted.

"Whatever you say Ice Queen," Naruto shrugged.

"Why does everyone keep calling me that!?"

"Might have something to do with the fact you were going to take away our children,"

"Yeah that'd do it," Thalia agreed.

While Weiss gave the two withering glares. Naruto looked over at his fellow faunus and his companion. "So who's this guy," The leader of U of UMPR asked. "I remember him after the food fight but you never introduced him,"

"This is my compadre Neptune," Sun introduced. "Some of you might not recognize him as the last time you saw him he was covered in food,". A rounds of 'Oh's' went aroud the group.

"Thanks," Neptune seethed looking at Sun. Then he turned back to the group with a quirked eyebrow. "Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't libraries for studying,"

"THANK YOU!" Ren shouted at finally finding someone who understood.

"Who dares steal my pancakes!" Nora roared sitting up from her slumber slamming her hands on the table. Then she went back to sleep.

"And there she goes," Roxas commented.

"Neptune, don't be a nerd," Sun griped. "Your embarrising[Db1] me,"

"Intellectual," Neptune corrected.

"That doesn't make it better," Naruto said.

"Thank you vulpine," Sun said walking over to Naruto.

"Anytime primate," Naruto said. The two slapped hands three times before slapping each other in the face.

'I see their handshake changed,' Blake thought.

"So what are you playing," Sun asked. "Maybe I can help," He said looking at Blake.

"You can take my place," Blake muttered. "I wanted to read a book I just got anyway," She quickly exited the library and headed back to her dorm. The others watched her go with varying degrees of emotion.

"Women am I right," Nora snorted.

"Aren't you a woman," Jaune asked.

"Exactly," The perky girl agreed.

"Somehow…that makes sense," The young knight nodded.

Naruto watched the faunus walk away with narrowed eyes. The negativity rolling off of her…

This wasn't good.

UMPR

Everyone knows the story of how man rose from nothing, together side by side with the creatures of Grimm, a constant and even struggle for dominance. But amongst the Grimm there were 9 which were unparalleled.

Like the Kings of Man, the people called these the Grimm Lords, for all lesser Grimm bowed in their presence. Their multitude of tails indicating their status.

No one knows where they came from. They appeard one day one by one causing havoc wherever they were. It is said that they simply rose above all other grimm by surving longer. So long I fact that they began to form unique abilities never before seen in other Grimm.

Each Grimm Lord was as feared and dangerous as the next, but reviled in their own way:

The Savage that fragments the waste
The Beast, who scorches the earth
The Leviathan, who swallows the shores
The Behemoth, who melts the mountains
The Heathen, who shrouds the chaos
The Colossus, who poisons the land
The Hellion, who revels in the skies
The Monster, who drowns the rainbow
And the Demon, who destroys all that is left.

Many have tried to slay them, but none could ever succeed. For even when struck down, the legends would rise again and again and again.

But beyond this, more than the indestructibility, the ferocity, the devastation, humans feared these Grimm Lords for a trait they all shared. Where the image of Grimm had always been of a fearsome beast, cloaked in midnight and clad in the bones of the innocent, these special Grimm could take on the form of man.

An appearance, no different than you, or I.

So fear young ones, for these Grimm lords could be anywhere, or be anyone. They may even be sitting next to you right now and you won't know… until it's too late.

Ruby closed the book and looked over at the potential grimm lord. A lot of it had been faded out but

"So what do you think?" She asked.

"About what?" Naruto asked.

"The fairy tale stupid," Ruby huffed. "This could potentially be about you,"

"I know that," Naruto growled. "I don't know what to think," He answered honestly. "I mean most of it was faded out so we don't even know the whole story,"

"Yeah but if theres some truth to this-" The young leader pointed out.

"Then I'm an even bigger monster than I thought I was," Naruto finished. "And apparently there are other like me," The blond snapped. "You understand the implications of that right,"

She did. She understood completely why he was worried. The implications here were phenomenal. Because while his intentions seemed to be good…the same couldn't be said about the other ones.

And who knows what they were doing out in remnant

"And you read those titles," Naruto started. "If even one of those is real…"

"But they might not be," Ruby argued. "I've seen grimm attack you," The young teen added.

"Then how else can I be explained," Naruto countered. "Because this is the closest thing I've seen to being able to explain a grimm that looks like a person.

"There are humanoid grimm though,"

"Yeah but none of them can walk through a city without anyone noticing,"

Ruby couldn't argue that. She looked over at the back of the blond contemplating the possibility of his predetermined destructive roll in life. There wasn't much she could say in this situation, because it was impossible to relate. So she did the first thing that came to mind.

Naruto felt Ruby's slender arms wrap around him from behind.

"Don't read into it," Ruby growled.

"What are you doing?"

"You don't feel like a Grimm." Ruby declared with a certain smugness, betrayed by how unexpectedly soft she found the back of his head.

"But you know I am one," Naruto muttered. "And have you ever hugged a Grimm?"

"True," Ruby relented. "But doesn't change the you don't feel like one,"

"Whatever," Naruto grouched though he oddly found the embrace comforting.

"Besides I'll just beat you up if you go bad,"

"Tch like you can beat me cookie monster," Naruto growled.


"-GAck! Y-you're c-choking m-e.." Naruto struggled.

"I'm sorry I couldn't do what now!" Ruby challenged.

"YO-u Gah! Heard Me!" Naruto said as he pulled her arms off of him. "What is wrong with you!"

"You're the on that challenged me,"

"Please!" Naruto scoffed. "I can take you down easily,"

"Really took you a minute to pull me off just now!"

I was going easy!"

"Oh yeah!"

"Yeah!"

UMPR

As she sat on her bed, Blake hardly noticed the ease of familiarity, the way she had come to claim this as "her" bed just as it was "their" room. It was frightening how readily she had accepted her right to be here at this school, hand in hand with those who never once gave it a second thought.

Her bloody hands tainting theirs.

A black cat, an ancient rumor which never quite died unlike those who crossed its path. Was it bad luck or bad choices which continued to dog her? She only wanted to do what was right, just like her brethren. They just wanted the same justice as everyone else not devoid of souls.
Humans stole, humans fought, humans killed- one another just as readily as Faunus.

As Grimm.

Sure, there were shining examples of peace like Beacon. But weren't they here learning the very skills necessary for such depravity? By preparing to fight, were they not being told the inevitability of confrontation? What was the difference in violence? Answer: The justice they would serve as huntresses would be one dictated by all humans.

As these thoughts mulled through her head the door opened and Weiss and Yang walked in.

"How could we lose to him of all people!" Weiss grouched.

"Maybe those boasts about being a good strategist weren't for show," Yang muttered walking in behind her with the game under her arm. Apparently Jaune had beaten them in the game after she left.

Blake quickly got up and tried to exit the room.

"Hold it right there!"

Blake stopped short of grabbing the doorknob. She turned around to see Weiss strutting towards her.

"You've been avoiding us," Weiss accusses. "You've been distant, moody, and silent," Yang blinked and looked over at the heiress.

"You've met Blake right?" Yang asked.

"And I get that it's your 'thing'" Weiss continued ignoring the blonde.

"Did you seriously just use air quotes," Yang snorted. "And why do you make it sound like a fad?"

"BUUUUUT!" Weiss snapped glaring at the buxom brawler. "You've been doing it to a point that is both concerning and aggravating," Weiss lectured. "You made a promise to us that you would be more open,"

Blake looked away at the accusation knowing it was true. She didn't want to deal with this. The only way this could get worse for her was if Ruby-

The door opened with a swing to reveal Naruto and Ruby.

-showed up.

Great.

"And look at how awkward your weapon is for one on one fights," Naruto shouted. Ruby gasped in shock.

"You leave Crescent Rose out of this you, ramen freak," Ruby hissed.

"You leave the food of the gods out of this!" Naruto bit back.

"Pfft yeah right," Ruby scoffed. "More like the food of the commoner's"

"How dare you!" Naruto growled.

"How dare I! No how dare YOU!" Ruby snapped back.

Blake watched as the two argued having grown used to it. Maybe she could sneak past them.

"Huh, Blake?" Ruby said looking away from Naruto. "Everything ok?" Or maybe she could deal with her leader too.

"She's being distant," And Weiss is snitching. Nice.

"Blake is this true?" Ruby asked looking up at her with wide eyes. "You know you can talk to us," Ruby said taking the B of RWBY's hand in her own. "You promised," And now her eyes were watery.

Damn her leader for being so adorable. It was unfair.

"Besides I don't think Tenten would put you up a second time," Naruto added making himself known

"We still need to talk about you scratching my ears in my sleep," Blake muttered. "But your right," Ruby gave a wide smile. "I just, can't get over what happened last Semester,"

"The White Fang," The blond leader stated. "Working with Roman,"

"You're still thinking about that?" Ruby asked in concern.

"Torchwick, the White Fang, that man we fought at the end," Blake pressed. "Not to mention what happened with Caboose!"

Ruby's face darkened at the memory of the card user. He had known her mother. Naruto's 'aura' flared causing the red to deepen in his hair.

"All of this stuff is happening and I can't help but feel likie something is coming," the faunus continued. "Something dangerous and no one is doing anything about any of it!"

"Ozpin told us that everything would be taken care of," Yang pointed out.

"Yeah how did that work out in Atlas," Blake hissed. Her teammates grimaced at the words. Naruto's hair had begun moving from his flaring 'aura'. Church had hacked into the system and it seemed that the investigation into the organization at the warehouse was being put on the back burner.

"And I've seen what the White Fang's capable of," Blake added. "They haven't,"

"So just because you're an ex-terrorist you think we can take them on," Weiss huffed. "Just because we've done things like blow up bars, or stopped thieves that have escaped everytime we fight them," The heiress shot back. "May I remind you that even though we rescued Caboose we have too deal with the possibility of the organization that wanted him discovering it was us that saved him,"

"Bring'em," Naruto growled.

"We're students!" Weiss exclaimed. "We're not ready to handle this sort of situation!"

"You're not wrong," Ruby agreed. "But there has to be something we can do,"

"Like what!" Weiss shouted at her partner. "What can a group of students in training do to a group that has been considered a threat to society for five years or an organization that has kept themselves in the shadows so well no one even knows its name!"

"Well, we can't wait until we graduate!" Blake countered. "Our enemies aren't just going to sit around and wait for us too!" Blake empahasized by pointing to the door.

"They're out there, somewhere, getting ready to make their next move!" Blake hollered. "How many more innocent people have to be hurt before someone does something,"

"So what you want to take down the White Fang," Naruto asked.

"Yes!" Blake answered.

"Don't be stupid!" Naruto stated catching her off guard.

"Are you serious," Blake hissed looking at her fellow faunus. "I thought you of all people would be on my side,"

"We can't take them down as we are now," Naruto insited.

"So you're just going to let them take Caboose again,"

"Blake!" Ruby warned but the damage had been done.

UMPR

"You think Blake's mad at her team because of me," Jaune asked as he looked up from his book to look at his partner.

"Proabably," Nora answered with a bounce. Jaune groaned.

"That's not helpful Nora," Ren pointed out.

"What's not?" The orange haired girl asked with a smile.

"I'm sure she's fine," Pyrrha reassured.

"Still though I can't help but feel-BOOM!" Jaune was cut of when something slammed against the door.

"What the heck was that!" Nora called already moving to the door.

UMPR

"Who's the cutest girl in the world," Percy cooed looking at Sophia causing her to giggle as she crawled about the room. "You are!"

"She seems excited," Roxas pointed out as he and Caboose looked down at the baby.

"Yeah," Percy agreed. "She usually gets like this after she's been changed," I think she likes feeling clean,"

"Yeah, I feel clean too after brushing my teeth with soap!"

"Caboose we told you to stop doing that," Percy groaned looking over at the gunner who was laying on the floor as Sophia approached him. Sophia reached out and grabbed Cabooses nose.

"Looks like she's got your nose," Roxas said.

"Oh no!" Caboose panicked. "Now how will I smell when people talk,"

"Wrong combination dumbass," Church growled. "By the way where's our fearless leader,"

BOOM!

"I think I found him," Roxas said as he jumped from his bed. Percy scooped Sophia up and they made their way to the door.

"It's always something with you people," Church groaned.

UMPR

Naruto's glared at the cat faunus as his 'aura' moved around him causing his clothes and hair to move as well. JNPR as well as the rest of UMPR came running out of their room at the commotion.

"You think I don't want to take them down," He seethed. "They took my partner," Naruto growled. And the White Fang hurt way too many people to be considered the peaceful organization they once were," Naruto continued. "But I'm not dumb enough to believe a marry band of students can take them down so easily,"

"Why not!"

"It took seven of us to fight that card bastard," Naruto pointed out. "And in the end he was still going easy on us and you know it!" Blake couldn't refute that. "And that warehouse we raided when getting Caboose was considered a way station, with none of their top fighters there," Blake made a fist. "So If you think a few students can handle that than more power to you but I know your smarter than that," Blake looked down in defeat. The logic couldn't be denied no mater how much she wanted it to be.

"That being said," Naruto continued. "I don't think theres harm in seeing what they plan for Vale,"

Blake looked up to see Naruto looking at her with a determined look.

"Umm," Jaune began makinghim and the others known. "What's going on exactly?"

"I'll tell you what's going on!" Ruby exclaimed somehow pushing everyone into her team's room. The stars in her eyes concerning many. "We're about to become the youngest group of Huntsmen and Huntresses to single-handedlytakedowntheforcesofevilconspiringagainsttheWorldofRemnant!Forevercementingourplaceinhistoryaslegends!"

"What?"
