Alright I'm back for another chapter in VTR! It is still kicking and nothing will stop this train from going, except maybe if the next Volume haven't aired yet, but it will continue.

Now on another note, I would remake Watching the Elements but mostly focus on the morality of one specific anime, My Hero Academia.

Some of you guys might have read every character of the anime reacting to the MCU and you see what their views on their world are and question them if they are right or wrong. I know you guys read them specifically from Yarheeguy and KiddoIsTheBest.

So I like the concept of it but instead of any series that you have known, I would use my OCs to question their morality. This would give the audience and you guys a sense of mystery with the story since not all of you know them as much as I do. Watching the Elements only show snippets but never their personality and all of their relations.

So I might do it in numerical order and with my OC is a way to show different aspects of their morality that I have learned to those two reactions.

For now, I'll continue this in the end of chapter, so I hope you'll enjoy it.

Chapter:60 Then Paranoia Comes

Above of a roof in Mantle, Team VRMN look over the Grimm infested city of Mantle while the orange haired teen clenched his fists.

"Don't worry, we'll get the rests back to Atlas then we're coming back for them," His best friend Mel assured him.

"I know, I feel something bad is going to happen," Vic said as Mel and Nomad look at him in confusion while Randy look to the rest of the Mantas.

"Are you having doubts with the General?" Randy asked his leader while Vic kept looking outside.

"You serious? You have been here for a year now, so what's with the doubt?" Nomad questioned.

"I think something fishy is going to happen and this would lead to James to do something drastic," Vic said as he turn to his team. "From now on, if you suspect any major suspicion from the General, be wary around him, it might not be so pretty to know what's inside his head right now."

Nomad and Randy were hesitant about this but Mel look at them in assurance as the three of them nods.

"So what's the plan boss?" Nomad asked.

"Lay low for now. But if the others get involved, get them out of there," Vic said as the city of Mantle continues to being overrun.

"Well 'joining a rebellion' is on my bucket lists anyway," Mel joked a little as the four of them while still feeling worried if they ever went back to Atlas.

"Let's just hope for the others safety," Nomad said as a Manta went for them.

From the middle of the arena, Ironwood stares up at Watts, who is standing on a platform in one of the four gravity biomes. A lava geyser shoots up from the fire biome to the left behind Ironwood, and another shoots up from the one to the right of the gravity biome Watts is in. Watts aims his revolver at Ironwood, who draws his black revolver and aims it behind himself. Watts pulls back his gun's hammer.

"Nineteen," Watt muttered.

Ironwood fires a Gravity Dust bullet from his black gun, launching himself toward the gravity biome. Watts fires his gun at Ironwood, who shoots a Gravity Dust bullet to the side to dodge it. Ironwood then fires yet another Gravity Dust bullet to put himself back on course toward the gravity biome. Once he gets near Watts, he fires yet another Gravity Dust bullet to his left, sending him toward a floating wall on his right, which he kicks off of to put himself in the air above Watts. Not expecting this move, Watts had begun to aim his revolver at Ironwood and instead ended up looking up at him in surprise before jumping away just as Ironwood comes down and punches with his right hand. The punch connects with the floor, and as Ironwood stands back up, he tosses his black revolver into the air and catches it by the muzzle, having flipped it around.

Watts once again attempts to aim at Ironwood, but Ironwood swings the handle of his revolver at Watts' face. Watts leans back to dodge, leaving an opening for Ironwood to punch him in the diaphragm. While Watts is still in the air, Ironwood spins around and kicks him in the gut, sending him flying across a gap to another platform. Watts rights himself in mid-air and lands on his toes, sliding backward. He barely manages to lean his torso to the side to dodge a normal bullet fired by Ironwood. He then blocks two more normal bullets with a Hard-Light shield deployed from hisrings. He aims his gun at Ironwood.

"Eighteen."

Watts fires and then activates one of his rings. Ironwood dives and rolls out of the way of the Electricity Dust bullet that Watts had fired at him. He gets up in a kneeling position and aims his white revolver at Watts, but there is a dull ping noise, followed by the gravity around Ironwood changing to levitate him into the air. There is another dull ping, and Ironwood is slammed into a floating wall.

"Ah!" The General let out a scream of pain from the hit.

Watts smirks and runs away, jumping to another platform, and Ironwood gets up and gives chase along the floating walls. There is another dull ping, and Ironwood begins to fall from the wall he is standing on. He fires a Gravity Dust bullet from his black gun to throw himself onto the adjacent platform and rolls across the floor. The force of the Gravity Dust bullet proves to be a little too much, as Ironwood stumbles over to the edge once he gets on his feet. As he teeters on the edge, he fires his white revolver, using the recoil to steady himself and keep himself on the platform.

Watts creates small Hard-Light platforms to traverse over the sunken geyser biome toward another gravity biome. Ironwood follows him across, barely managing to make it from one Hard-Light platform to another before they disappear. He fires his white gun at Watts, who activates one of his rings, triggering a geyser beneath Ironwood. Ironwood cries out as the boiling water hits him and throws him to the side.

As he falls, Ironwood aims his black gun below him and fires a Gravity Dust bullet, sending him flying back up into the air to land in the gravity biome that Watts had fled to. He runs up a wall and onto the underside of a platform. He and Watts run parallel with one another, firing normal bullets at each other, with Ironwood using his white gun to shoot and Watts using his Hard-Light shield to defend. Watts shoots two Fire Dust bullets at Ironwood. The first bullet misses, but the second bullet hits, causing Ironwood'sAurato flicker.

"Fourteen, thirteen."

Ironwood leaps across the gap toward Watts, who activates one of his rings, causing Ironwood to fall down to the platform below. As he falls, Ironwood uses his black gun to fire a Gravity Dust bullet, which hits Watts, knocking him off his platform and into a wall. Ironwood lands on his feet, while Watts falls along the wall, landing on his shoulder on the platform that Ironwood is on.

While Watts starts to get up on his hands and knees, Ironwood holsters his revolvers, walks over and kicks him in the gut, knocking him into the wall. Watts lands on his feet, just in time for Ironwood to punch him in the head. Watts attempts to punch back with his right hand and then his left, but Ironwood leans to the sides to avoid his fists, grabs onto Watts' upper arm, and punches him hard in the ribs. He then grabs Watts by the throat and presses him up against the wall, lifting him up from the floor. Watts aims his revolver at Ironwood's face and shoots an Electricity Dust bullet and a Fire Dust bullet, forcing Ironwood to let go and dodge.

Ironwood grabs Watts' wrist, reaches across his back to draw his white gun, and aims it at Watts. Watts leans to the side, grabs the underside of Ironwood's gun, and jumps up and over Ironwood, who fires his gun while Watts still has the muzzle in his hand. Due to his wrist being twisted around, Ironwood is forced to let go of Watts, who then lets go of Ironwood's gun. Ironwood aims his gun at Watts, but Watts shoots first, firing an Electricity Dust bullet, which Ironwood blocks with his right arm. Watts flies backwards, turns in mid-air and lands on the floor.

"Ten."

Ironwood looks at his prosthetic arm for a moment and then fires his white gun at Watts, who flees. Ironwood chases him, and Watts uses a ring to change gravity once again and runs up a wall in front of him. As he chases Watts up the wall, Ironwood fires at him with his white gun. Watts turns and shoots a Fire Dust bullet and Ice Dust bullet, which knock the black gun from Ironwood's hand. Watts shoots one more Fire Dust bullet and then runs up onto the top of the wall.

"Seven"

He shuts off the gravity for the wall and flees, but Ironwood manages to grab onto the edge with his left hand and pulls himself up. Once he reaches the top, he sees Watts fleeing to another gravity biome on Hard-Light platforms. Instead of following, Ironwood looks off to the left.

Immediately after Watts arrives in the other gravity biome, a lava geyser erupts from the sunken fire biome below. Watts looks back at it, and when the lava falls, he looks around in surprise, having lost sight of Ironwood. As Watts peeks over the edge at the fire biome, Ironwood leaps up onto a platform behind him and begins running.

"Hmph," Watts said in annoyance.

Ironwood fires a normal bullet, striking Watts' shoulder and causing his Aura to flicker. Watts cries out in pain, then turns and angrily fires an Ice Dust bullet, which freezes Ironwood's right foot to the floor. Watts moves up to the underside of a platform above them. Ironwood shoots the ice trapping his leg, shattering the ice, and runs toward Watts, firing at him. Watts blocks with a Hard-Light shield and fires back with a normal bullet at first, followed by a series of Electricity Dust bullets. At one point, Ironwood's bullet and Watts' bullet deflect each other.

Ironwood and Watts leap at each other and grab onto each other's hands, rotating in the air due to the conflicting gravitational fields. Ironwood lets go of Watts' gun and punches him in the jaw, and Watts counters by headbutting him. Watts changes the gravity again, and the two fall onto the underside of a platform, landing on their sides. They get up, and Watts activates one of his rings and attempts to leap away, only for Ironwood to grab his ankle and slam him onto the floor. Watts' Aura flickers and then breaks.

Watts stands up and aims his revolver, only to see Ironwood already charging toward him. Ironwood tackles him, and the two go flying from the gravity biome, turning and flailing as they enter the planet's true gravitational pull. They both slam into the floor of the arena's center platform, and the impact breaks Ironwood's Aura. As he slides across the floor, Watts rights himself into a kneel and uses his rings on the platform, which begins to rise up. Ironwood stands up and checks his gun's ammo, panting.

"You never appreciated my genius, James," Watts said as Ironwood puts the revolving chamber away and flips his gun around to hold it by the muzzle. "You just stood atop it and called yourself a giant!"

Watts, also holding his revolver by the muzzle, charges forward, spins, and attempts to slam the side of his left fist into Ironwood's face, but Ironwood backs away from him. Watts moves forward and slams the butt of his revolver into Ironwood's nose, causing Ironwood to recoil and stumble back. Watts then attempts to punch with his left hand, but Ironwood blocks and redirects it with his right arm. Watts swings his revolver to the left at Ironwood's face again and barely misses. He then swings his revolver and his left fist to the right, but Ironwood ducks under both attacks. While Watts is turned away, Ironwood attempts to strike him with his revolver, but Watts turns and puts his left arm up to stop Ironwood's right arm. The force of Ironwood's right arm causes Watts to bend at his knees, and he then slams his revolver into Ironwood's chest, causing Ironwood to stumble back.

"I gave you everything you could've wanted!" James retorted.

"You chose that fat imbecile over me!" Watts yelled in anger.

The platform finally stops rising, docking itself in an octogonal ring just under the Amity Communications Tower's machinery.

As Ironwood charges toward him, Watts holds his gun out, but Ironwood pushes it aside with his left hand and then slams the butt of his revolver against Watts' mouth. Watts stumbles back and then attempts to guard himself with his right arm and his gun, and Ironwood punches his arm, causing him to turn. Watts stumbles and backs away, while Ironwood presses forward and strikes him across the jaw with his revolver. He attempts to defend with his arm, but once again, Ironwood punches him hard enough to cause him to turn. As they near a metal beam, Watts hits across Ironwood's face with his revolver and moves forward to take the offensive as Ironwood recoils from the blow. However, Ironwood recovers and punches Watts in the gut hard enough to send him flying back against the metal beam.

Ironwood attempts to hit him with his revolver again, but Watts grabs Ironwood's arm and attempts to aim his own revolver at Ironwood's head. Ironwood grabs onto Watts' wrist and the two stand locked in place.

Watts let out chuckles and said, "I suppose in this instance, my brains and your brawn are evenly matched."

Ironwood stares Watts in the eyes, with the barrel of Watts' revolver pressed to his temple and said, "You're smart, but you're not the only one who can count."

The two of them pant, and Watts lowers his gun, Ironwood letting go of his wrist. Ironwood starts to calm down but is soon alerted by the tone in Watts' voice.

"Oh I know."

Watts drops his revolver, and Ironwood looks at it. Watts then grabs Ironwood's left wrist and swings him around to trade places with him. He then shoves Ironwood's arm through a gap in the metal beam and shoves himself away, collapsing to the floor. Four of Watts' rings are placed within the gap in the beam, held in place by a Hard-Light barrier that has trapped Ironwood's left arm. Ironwood attempts to pull his arm through, only for the barrier to tear and burn his skin, causing him to scream in pain.

"That was a little too close for my liking, James," Watts said as he stands up, flexing his fingers and then making a fist. "Rebuilding those rings is going to be such a pain."

Ironwood glares at Watts, who turns and begins walking away.

"Now, if you'll excuse me."

Ironwood grips his upper arm and begins slowly pulling it through the barrier again, groaning and wincing in pain.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you. I mean, unless you're hoping to add more metal to that body of yours," Watts warned him as Ironwood stops for a moment, panting and sweating. He closes his eyes and resumes pulling. Watts uses his remaining rings to highlight portions of the tower's machinery in cyan boxes. "All right now, where did they put them?"

Behind him, Ironwood cries out, and there is a thud. Watts' eyes widen, and he looks over his shoulder to see Ironwood sitting up from the floor, panting, with smoke rising from his left arm. Watts turns to face him, shocked.

"What?!"

Ironwood stands, charges forward, and uses his right arm to grab Watts by the collar of his shirt. He slams Watts onto the floor and continues running, scraping the right side of Watts' face against the floor, before lifting him up to dangle him over the edge of the platform. Lava bubbles and rises from the fire biome far below Watts, who stares down at it and then looks at the panting Ironwood.

"I will sacrifice... whatever it takes... to stop her," James said between breathes as Watts chuckles, smirking.

"Oh, I hope you do, James," Watts said as he spits out blood. "I hope you do."

In an alley down in Mantle,Tyrian stands before Robyn, Clover, Qrow Branwen and Hunch, the humans all with their weapons drawn while the Disaster Pokémon keeps sharpening his horn.

"Tyrian Callows, you're under arrest," Clover said to try and intimidate the Scorpion Faunus to stand down.

Tyrian begins laughing maniacally to oppose his words, and Qrow angrily runs forward and swings his sword. Tyrian blocks with his blades, but the impact knocks him into a wall. Qrow slashes at him again, but Tyrian ducks and attempts to kick Qrow's feet out from under him, only for Hunch to charge at him with Night Slash. Tyrian quickly evaded the attack to rush forward to stab Qrow, who blocks with his sword and then slashes at him. Tyrian dodges acrobatically, standing on his hands, then turning over and leaping into the air to stab down at Qrow with both weapons, but Qrow once again blocks with the flat of his sword while Hunch rushed in. Tyrian hops down, and Qrow and Hunch swings their blades at him, missing due to Tyrian ducking down and propelling himself backward with his guns.

Tyrian begins slashing at Qrow, but Clover hooks one of the blades with Kingfisher and pulls his arm away, causing him to turn around just in time to catch one of Robyn's crossbowbolts just short of piercing between his eyes. He at first looks startled but then grins smugly and turns back to Qrow, who punches him directly in the right eye, sending him stumbling. Hunch then ram him in the gut while his Trainer turn his sword in his hand, and slams the end of the hilt into Tyrian's chest, knocking him away. Qrow turns his sword back around in his grip, and Tyrian slides to a stop and growls angrily while Hunch returns it with his own.

He looks over at Clover and Robyn, then grins at Qrow and Hunch. He then runs toward them while firing his guns at Qrow at Hunch, Qroe spins his sword to block the bullets while Hunch quickly evaded them.. Tyrian leaps and slashes at Clover, who turns to the side to dodge before leaning backward to dodge a slash from Tyrian's tail. Tyrian slashes at him with his weapons, and Clover takes a step past him and leans back to go under Tyrian's attacks while grabbing the hook of his own weapon. As he moves behind Tyrian and straightens up, he maneuvers his pole and the hook to loop the fishing pole's wire around Tyrian's left arm and pulls on it. Qrow and Hunch then leaps and slashes down at Tyrian, who blocks with his weapon on his right arm.

Qrow quickly pulls his sword away and punches Tyrian in the cheek, causing Tyrian to turn away. Tyrian puts his right hand on the ground seemingly to catch himself but then brings his feet up and uses his right hand to push himself up into the air. He pulls his left arm free of Kingfisher's line, turns upside down and kicks both Qrow and Clover in the head simultaneously while another kick knock away Hunch. While the three recoil from his attack, Tyrian stabs his blades into the ground to catch himself and then pushes off, flying up through the air while Robyn aims her crossbow at him.

He lands on a large pipe connected to a wall, and she fires a bolt at him, only for him to swipe it away with his tail. He turns toward Robyn, but Clover hooks his tail with Kingfisher and pulls him down. While Tyrian is on the ground, Qrow and Hunch swings at him, but Tyrian rolls out of the way and gets to his feet. Qrow and Hunch begins slashing their blades at him, but Tyrian dodges his attacks by jumping, ducking, stepping aside, and finally leaning back away from an attempted stab. Qrow tosses his sword into the air, the sections of the blade splitting from each other, and Tyrian watches it. While Tyrian is distracted, Qrow kicks him in the back of the head while Hunch followed it by ramming Tyrian as Qrow then catches his sword.

The kick sends Tyrian stumbling across the alley to slam into a wall. He glares at Qrow and Hunch, his eyes glowing purple, then moves aside as Qrow attempts to kick him in the face with Hunch following behind him. Low to the ground, Tyrian moves past Qrow and Hunch, with the drunkard now holding his weapon backwards with the blade curved while the Disaster Pokémon readied another Night Slash. They turn to face each other, and once again, Clover hooks Tyrian's tail with Kingfisher and pulls, dragging Tyrian backward and giving Qrow an opening to punch him in the cheek. Tyrian goes flying through the air but manages to land on his feet. He launches himself forward in an attempt to stab Qrow and Hunch with his weapons, but Qrow blocks with his blade. Robyn fires two bolts, both of which ricochet off of pipes. Tyrian moves his head to dodge the first, but the second ricochets off of Qrow's weapon and strikes him in the chin, making his Aura flicker.

Tyrian falls back, rolls, and gets to his feet. Qrow and Hunch jumps over and slashes at him, but Tyrian ducks under the first slash and jumps over the second. However, as Tyrian falls back down, Qrow repositions himself, kicks Tyrian in the gut, Hunch ramming him higher in the air, Qrow catches him on Harbinger's gun barrel and fires. As Tyrian falls back down again, Qrow punches him in the gut and then kicks him in the side, sending him toward Clover and Robyn.

While Tyrian slides back, Clover runs forward, deploying a Gravity Bolas. He tosses the bolas and slides between Tyrian's legs, while Tyrian attempts to slash him with his right arm. The bolas successfully binds his left arm to his side. Clover grips the top of his weapon's hook, and as Tyrian attempts to stab him, Clover pushes Tyrian's arm down with his left hand and uses his right hand to move the pole around behind Tyrian. As Tyrian attempts to pull back, his right arm becomes tangled in Kingfisher's wire, and Clover pulls the pole and holds the hook in place to restrict Tyrian's arm and press his tail against his back. Qrow takes the opportunity to punch Tyrian in the gut.

Tyrian cries out in pain, then crouches, leans away from Clover, hops into the air and begins screaming. Qrow and Hunch moves away from him, and Clover loosens Kingfisher's cable on him and does the same, as Tyrian drops onto his back. Upon impact with the ground, the ends of the bolas disconnect from each other, and Tyrian spins frantically, swinging his legs through the air, to finish freeing himself from the bolas and Kingfisher's wire. He then gets to his feet, looking somewhat dizzy, and begins laughing maniacally.

Robyn fires another bolt, and he turns to catch it between his teeth. He turns back to Robyn with a smug grunt. There is a small noise, and the lines in the bolt begin flashing red, before the entire bolt glows red, bursts into flame, and explodes. Tyrian sways, and his Aura flickers and then finally breaks. With a dazed laugh, he collapses. Robyn walks over to him, and he looks up at her, continuing to laugh until she kicks him in the face, knocking him out. She leans down with a smirk.

"Where's that smile now?" She said smugly while Clover turns and uses his communicator.

"This is Clover. Requesting prisoner transport."

In Atlas Academy, Ironwood hears Clover's communicator transmission as he walks into his office. His left arm is heavily bandaged and resting in a sling, and his right hand is holding Watts' bag.

"We have Tyrian Callows in custody."

Ironwood lets out a relieved sigh and grins. However, when he looks ahead of him, his grin instantly fades, his eyes widen in shock and he drops Watts' bag on the floor.

Just outside the academy, transports of Atlas Academy students are arriving, and Winter is instructing them.

"All students are to remain indoors until further notice. Faculty and upperclassmen can provide gui--" She was cut iff when her communicator makes a noise, and she answers it. Ironwood's voice comes through, and his tone is gravely serious.

"Schnee."

"Yes, sir?"

"Was anyone caught trying to enter the school grounds while I was away?"

Winter's eyes widen, and she turns to look at the school.

"N-no," She said in uncertainty.

"Are. You. Sure?"

Winter's eyes widen more, and she sprints toward the school.

"Still afraid I see," Cinder is standing in a hallway inside the academy, watching Winter through a window. The lights in the hall are red. "Now show me where you've been hidingher."

While flying over Mantle, Penny receives a transmission on her communicator and listens to it.

"Affirmative," The gynoid said as she changes course to fly up to theCity of Atlas.

"I don't understand."

Weiss is aboard a Manta that is headed toward the City of Atlas. Ruby, Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora, Ren and Elm are also on board, and Harriet is piloting.

"Why would the general call us back without giving a reason?" She said with doubt.

"Especially with evacuations still going on in Mantle," Ren added.

"Vic even called me and complained about the order," Nora also added her part as she still remembered his brother yelling through his Scroll.

"You don't have to understand orders, kids. You just have to follow them," Elm answered while the teens on board began to feel worried.

"Civvy transports won't be stopping anytime soon. If the general says he needs us now, he needs us now," Harriet said.

"You all get to the general and find out what's happening. We'll bring Oscar and see you soon," Jaune said as Ruby could only nod.

Team VRMN are currently waiting in the hallway while Vic looked very angry.

"What was the General thinking?" Vic complained. "There are still people down there."

"All of us also wondered about that," Nomad said as the two members of the team also felt the same.

"We already caught Watts and Tyrian, so what could be the problem," Mel said.

"There are many things that could be part of it," Randy said as he then look at Vic. "And I think that you might have some answers."

Nomad and Mel then look at Vic as the orange haired looked back at them.

"I don't know anything," Vic said as Nomad felt angry from the response.

"Bullshit! You are the only in this team that stayed here in Atlas the longest, so give us some answers," Nomad said in anger.

"Dude please," Mel said as he look at his best friend. "We can't solve this without your help, so please help us."

Vic look up for a moment as he then let out a sigh and said, "Fine I'll tell you."

His team then stood beside him and began to listen to him.

"It was months ago and James became... paranoid. He would easily jump from fear from the things that would probably endanger Atlas and wouldn't hesitate to do something drastic, but he slowly grew more fearful that he even made his orders clear. There would be no need of questioning or hesitation, his orders should be followed immediately," Vic said as his team continued to listen. "So I began to work in Mantle alongside Penny and the Happy Huntresses so the General won't have a leash on me."

"Whoa," Nomad said in shock.

"Since when?" Mel asked.

"A month or two," Vic said.

"Can we move on?" Randy asked as Vic decided to continue explaining.

"While I would patrol alongside Penny, I would sometimes help Robyn and his crew escape any capture that would endanger Mantle," Vic said as he look at his teammates. "Till you guys came, I have to stay beside you now, I need to keep watch on all of you because of your close proximity with the General. Especially when I heard that a Grimm almost attacked Argus, James grew more paranoid and wary that he completely made his orders absolute, which caused the people to doubt him."

"So what did you next?" Randy asked.

"There must be somethings that you did when you stayed in Mantle," Mel said.

"Well Robyn called out to me a few days after your arrival and needed some information about the things we know: Pokémon. She wants to know everything about them but I only gave her some of them, I am still not that close to her group so I didn't have some kind of affiliation with them except for being a messenger. I speculate after seeing Penny's Pokémon, that she wants to know of ways to take one down, so I give out only a little."

"Back with Ironwood please, I really feel something is getting closer," Nomad said as he look around warily.

"Alright alright," Vic said as he quickly focus to the main problem. "All in all, James is too paranoid, his orders are completely absolute, his soldiers will always follow him no matter what, but the worst of all is his Semblance."

"What is his Semblance?" Mel asked as Vic shivers.

"His Semblance strengthens his resolve over things that would let him choose any decisions. In short, if he has something in his mind, his Semblance will help him focus to only that. In this case, protecting Atlas at all cost in exchange of the people below," He then finished as he look at his teammates.

Randy, Mel and Nomad look at him in shock as they try and process everything.

"Did you ever plan on telling us about this?" Randy questioned.

"I did, but I only plan on telling it on Mantle, less ears would be hearing it if we are down there," Vic said.

"What do we do now then?" Nomad asked.

"Isn't it obvious," Mel said as he grabbed Shock Lash from its holster. "If our friends are involved in this, we'll protect them no matter what, anything about Atlas, we're kicking their asses."

"It is indeed become a rebellion," Randy said.

"Well I was hoping that it wouldn't lead to this," Nomad said as he drew Knockout and Knockoff.

Suddenly their Scrolls got a call from RWBY.

"Ironwood's declaring Martial Law and abandoning Mantle! Salem is coming, and he's going to use the Staff to move Atlas. If we don't stop him, then Mantle's going to be des--"

The chat was cut off as Team VRMN look at each other in shock till Vic and Randy drew their weapon and quickly headed to Ruby's location.

Ruby looks at her Scroll, shocked. The communication symbol has turned red with a white slash across it, and the screen displays the word "LOCKED".

"What? No!" Ruby cried out in despair.

She stands up from behind the desk and looks at Ironwood, who is holding his Scroll up. He puts his Scroll away and heads for the door.

"I'm sorry it's come to this, but until Atlas and the Relics are safe, you're all under arrest," Ironwood said as Weiss and Blake glare at him, and Yang looks furious.

"We won't just let you take us," Ruby said as she look at him with her silver-blue eyes.

Ironwood stops in front of the door, and the Ace-Ops move to stand between him and Team RWBY, staring at Ruby and her teammates. Ironwood glances over his shoulder at them.

"I know," He then left his office.

In a hallway somewhere in Atlas Academy, Jaune and Pyrrha are staring at his Scroll's screen, which displays the red marked-out communication symbol and the word "LOCKED".

"Ruby, are you there? Ruby!!" Jaune tried to find any type of response.

"We already have too much on our plates right now," Pyrrha said as she got some parts of Ruby's call.

Jaune frantically taps on the screen and stops when he hears Nora's voice in front of him.

"Did you... tell them?"

Jaune and Pyrrha looks to their left into a dorm room. The walls are covered with black scorch marks, and multiple broken Atlesian Knight-200s are on the floor.

"Oscar, where are you...?" Jaune thought out loud in worry.

And that is it for this chapter.

This are just going more deeper now when I kept continuing the story.

More changes will soon happen in this story as it continues to escalates more till the next Volume.

I still have kept in mind my Fate x RWBY Crossover using only the Fate characters I saw in Netflix, which less than you think. I only saw Fate/Stay Night: UBW, Fate/Stay Night: Heaven's Feel, Fate/Apocrypha, Fate/Extra Last Encore, and Fate/Grand Order- Absolute Demonic Front: Babylonia, so don't complain to me if I didn't add your favorite Servants.

I would also do another Fate x RWBY Xover with a different idea in mind with less Servants, so expect that as well since the focus of this story is Jaune.

But I can't promise that just yet since I am already busy with two stories that I must finish.

For now, I must continue the two stories that I am working and finish them.

So see you guys in the next chapter.

Vic out Peace.
