Continent: Sanus

Kingdom: Vale

Setting: Outside of Juniors Club One Year before the first chapter of RWBY

"I can't believe I'm actually doing this crap"

Vince talked to himself as he rode his red motorcycle, the design was really similar to Yang's bike Bumblebee except instead of a yellow color scheme it was mainly ruby red with pink highlights

Vince wore a red tailcoat over a white button-up shirt with a black bow tie and black formal pants, on his head was a red top hat with a black stripe and on his hands were

After meeting Jonathan Jade and hearing his offer Vince thought he should at least hear him out and after a long conversation he agreed to work with him

Flashback to earlier that day...

"So if you want us to steal the Phantom Collection then that means you know where it is right?"

Vince asked him as he looked at the briefcase on the table

"Yes and no" Jonathan reaches into his jacket and pulls out a stack of pictures

"I only know of a few people who are currently in possession of collection pieces"

He hands two photos to Vince

"And gathering these three pieces will tell me if you are capable of pulling this off," Jonathan told them as he handed pictures to Axel and then Daisy

"You three are to split up and acquire the collection piece in the picture from the person on the other picture, if you bring the piece back here by 4 in the afternoon tomorrow then I'll hire you and give you more information, now before you leave I will need you to take these uniforms, I'd prefer you'd wear them anytime you would go to retrieve a piece of the collection"

He gestured to the briefcase

The Vince was the first to grab a mask and the red bow tie

"Please tell me you have another suitcase for us because I'm not going to steal from Junior of all people wearing nothing but a mask and a bow tie"

Daisy giggled at him while Axel's face remained stoic

"Oh right I forgot"

Jonathan walked to the back room of the restaurant and came back out holding a stack of three briefcases and sat them on the table

"Sorry I should've brought these out before, so just take these and you're all free to go"

They each take a briefcase and head for the door

"Oh and kids" Jonathan calls out to them making them stop

"You can use any method you'd like to get the collection piece but avoid damaging the item and do your best to not draw any attention to this place"

They all simply nodded before leaving the restaurant

Back to Vince in front Juniors Nightclub

"Did not think I'd ever come back here"

Vince spoke to himself as he got off of his motorcycle

"Well at least with this mask they won't recognize me"

He took off his top hat and placed the blank white mask on his face and the rest of his head was covered by a black material, he put his top hat back on and pulled out the picture Jonathan gave him

"Out of all the things Junior has, this is what I have to steal" The item in the picture Vince received was a pure black rocket launcher with the symbol of a gold hat on it

"As much as I'd like to be sneaky while stealing this there is no way Junior would let something like this be easily found, so I'll have to cause a fight and make him have to use it" Vince put the picture back into his pocket before walking to the clubs entrance

Two of Junior's regular henchmen stood next to the door

"Hold it!" They both blocked the door from Vince with their arms crossed

"Lose the mask"

Vince knew with his and Junior's history that he couldn't let them see his face or hear his voice so he quickly moved into the face of the guard on the right and jabbed him the stomach knocking him and before the other guard could say or do anything Vince grabbed him then put him into a chokehold not letting him go until he lost consciousness and he dropped him onto the ground

"Alright showtime"

He pulled the door open and went into the club, Vince looked around as he was in the nightclub, with music booming through the speakers

As Vince was walking towards the bar he spotted Junior with the Malachite twins at his side as usual and he was talking to another man in a white coat and a bowler hat with orange hair, the man was unfamiliar to Vince but that wasn't his priority at the moment. The orange-haired man walked away and Junior leaned on the bar rubbing his temples as the Malachite Twins left his side

Vince sat down next to him and passed a slip of paper that said "Fire Ball" on it to the bartender. Junior turned to him with an annoyed look on his face

"Who the hell are you?"

Staying silent Vince pulled out the picture of the rocket launcher and put it on the bar in front of Junior tapping the picture

"What are you looking to buy a weapon or something?"

Vince turned his body to Junior and made a "give me" gesture

"I don't know what you're trying to talk about but this is your only warning, get the hell out of here before something bad happens"

Not caring to be subtle anymore Vince quickly stood up and grabbed Junior by his neck, pulling Junior off of his chair as he tried to struggle out of his grasp

"What the hell do you want?"

Junior barely managed to choke out

Vince grabbed the picture off of the bar and held it in front of Junior's face as his henchmen gathered around them, Junior grunted trying to threaten him "Listen, Creep if you wanna get out of here alive. Let me go!"

Vince knew Junior was gonna make his goons attack but didn't care since he could probably get the rocket launcher quicker that way, he just shrugged his shoulders and let go of Junior making him drop to the ground gasping for his breath for a few seconds before standing up

"You'll pay for that"

He started walking away, putting his shades on and Vince tried to follow him but a bunch of his henchmen got in his way and began to surround him

"Get him out of here! I don't care what you do to him"

Junior sat back down at the bar as Vince was surrounded by his henchmen, from what Vince could see was around six men surrounding him and they were all pulling out weapons

"Why are you all just standing there? Fucking get him!" Junior shouted at his henchmen

Vince picks up on the sound of a gun cocking behind him and immediately lunges for the henchmen. He grabs the henchmen's gun so that the bullets are harmlessly directed into the floor before thrusting the butt of the rifle into the henchmen's face. One of the henchmen pulls out a frag grenade and removes the pin. Reacting quickly, Vince hits him with a left hook and throws the grenade out the nearest window. As it detonated in mid-air Vince was already on the move again, he rushes towards the next henchmen and delivers a punch that leaves him unconscious before he hits the ground. Another henchmen charges at Vince with a knife, Vince catches his arm before the blade could reach him and flips him onto the floor, as he hit the floor Vince kneeled down and chopped his neck knocking him out. Henchmen ran up behind Vince and pointed a pistol at his head but before he could pull the trigger Vince turned and grabbed the thug by his wrist then twists it so that the gun would slip between his fingers. As the thug writhes in pain, Vince glances over to see another henchman rushing at him. He quickly catches his fist and bends it back so far that he could hear the bone snap. With both thugs crouching in agony, Vince momentarily released them only to slam their heads together.

Vince stands up and surveys the room. He turns and sees that the only ones still in the night club were the unconscious henchmen and one still conscious henchmen crawling away

"Crap! Where'd he go?!"

Outside behind the club, Junior along with the Malachite Twins And two henchmen were running to a large truck, in Junior's hands was the black rocket launcher that Vince was aiming to steal

"Why are we running?"

Melaine asked Junior as the two henchmen scrambled to the driver's seat of the parked truck

"Yeah we totally could've taken him!"Militia added as Junior jumped into the back of the trailer

"Shut up and get in!"

The twins rolled their eyes and jumped into the trailer as well letting Junior close the shutter behind them. The truck then drove off away from the nightclub

10 minutes later...

"Hey boss I'm pretty sure we lost him" The henchmen called out from the front

Junior let out a sigh of relief and sat down, the Malachite twins cleared their throats as the stood in front of him with their arms crossed

"So why are we running from some weirdo in a mask?" Melaine asked

"Fuck"

Junior ignored them and pulled out his phone "I should've known someone would've come for this damn thing but I didn't listen!" He ranted as he dialed a number into his phone and held it to his face

"Someone came for it and I'm on my way to-"He is interrupted as he hears a loud roar in the distance

"Hey, boss we have a problem!" The two henchmen shouted as they looked behind the truck and saw Vince driving after them on his motorcycle

"I'm getting that collection piece!" Vince narrows his eyes under his mask and accelerates getting closer to the truck.

Junior hands an automatic rifle to both of the Malachite Twins

"Take him out!" The truck's shutter door slides open and the Malachite Twins gaze out at the masked pursuer behind them, they raise their rifles and opens fire on Vince's motorcycle, but the bullets simply ricochet off of the bike like they were firecrackers

"It's not working!" Both of the Twins tell Junior as they continue to shoot at Vince with their shoots only hitting his bike with how he was moving, Junior pounds on the wall then shouts at the driving henchmen

"Get us on the freeway!"

Junior grabs his rocket launcher then takes aim and fires at his pursuer. But before the rocket could find its mark, Vince pulled out a flare gun and shoots it into the air. The heat-seeking rocket targets the flare and detonates early, causing an explosion.

The truck reaches a bridge Junior and the Malachite Twins watched the scene unfold as Vince charged out of the blast on his bike. Junior took aim again but before he could shoot, Vince pulled out a red revolver with gold highlights and shoots at the back tires of the truck making them pop and causing Junior to accidentally shoot a rocket into the air

Vince speeds up and threw two small devices onto the side of the truck before speeding ahead of it as the devices rapidly beeped until they exploded causing the truck to tip over onto its side. Junior and the twins swear as they are thrown around in the truck and the twins hit their heads on the wall and pass out. Vince zooms to the end of the bridge and swerves to a halt

Inside the trailer, Junior regains his footing and picks up the rocket launcher

"Shit this is ridiculous!"

Vince got off of his bike and approached the truck as Junior stepped outside of the trailer. As Junior saw Vince approaching him, he points his rocket launcher at Vince

"Stay back before I blow you to fucking bits!" Junior threatened and Vince did as he said and held his hands up, a red card came out of Vince's sleeve into his hand and he throws it with pinpoint accuracy. It becomes embedded in Junior's hand making him drop his weapon.

In the split second it takes Junior to claps his injured hand, Vince cleared the distance between them. He delivers a volley of punches, alternating between his head and chest before he has time to block his attacks. Junior staggers, But stays on his feet and charges at Vince, he sidesteps Junior's attacks and uppercuts him, knocking him to the ground. Vince gets on top of Junior and begins raining down blows onto him until he was no longer conscious.

After finishing his beat down, Vince dragged the unconscious Junior and dropped him on top of the Malachite Twins. He then grabs Junior's rocket launcher off the ground and wraps the weapon in a cloth then straps it to his back before getting back onto his motorcycle and driving off

Authors Note: I hope you guys liked the chapter! I should've mentioned this but the uniforms Jonathan gave them were fully equipped with gadgets to aid them.
