Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of The Dragon and her rook. Enjoy the 900- word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.

(Vale, Atlesian Warship Blizzard.)

Skyler cracked his neck while the Blizzard moved towards Mt. Glenn, it was where RWBY… Who he had picked up and taken to the ship, was supposed to be?

He heard some rumors from the White Fang insurgents… Ones that he allowed to think he didn't have audio recorders hidden in the hallways to catch their words… They had been taken to General Ironwood's

"Sir, shall we continue the course? Professor Oobleck and the rest of Team RWBY… They will be coming towards the bridge soon enough…"

Bran put in, he stood behind Skyler as the Atlesian Captain, he would deal with the ship while Skyler dealt with things.

"Let them come, Lieutenant, nothing classified is on the bridge… And you know that…. All we do now is wait and enjoy the trip… When we arrive, don't move over the city, the White Fang will run if an Atlesian Cruiser is in their airspace…. So, there's that to deal with… Just have 2 squads set up camp near the hill… We move in when we are all set up…. Now, wait for team RWBY."

Skyler said, the door behind them opened and team RWBY and Professor Oobleck in before turning and marching out of the room.

"Speaking of team RWBY…. So, there's that…. Bran, do what you need to do…."

Skyler said as he turned to Professor Oobleck and bowed before turning to RWBY with a smile.

Yang smirked at him, she still got under his skin… And was slowly digging her way under his skin…

But he'd deal with that later, he turned to Oobleck once more.

"Welcome aboard the Blizzard, professor Oobleck… Ruby, Weiss, Blake… Yang… Nice to see all of you again…."

Skyler said, Yang, chuckled and smirked as she leaned on one of the consoles.

"Aw, not mentioning me first? Geez, that's as cold as Weiss cream…"

Yang joked, Ruby and Weiss groaned at the joke, Skyler tried and had to bring a hand to his mouth and still chuckled a little.

Skyler cursed as Yang smirked, Skyler did find her jokes funny…. That brought a smile to her face…. Even if she was just messing with him…

Wasn't she? The dance was making her rethink things…. She was surprised at that… It still made things interesting.

"Good to see you too, Yang, I'm sure your make some great Punch at Mt. Glenn."

Skyler joked; it wasn't something he did often…. But since Yang had made him laugh at the dance, he would return her jokes.

"Oh, dear lord no, Yang, what did you do to Skyler?"

Weiss said, facepalming as Yang grinned and turned to her teammate in amusement.

"Hey, not my fault the Captain of Atlas has my sense of humor…. If I had known that I would have Broken the Ice with him even earlier than I did…."

Yang said Skyler tried not to laugh, failed, and laughed at how bad the joke was.

"Please… Stop Yang…. That was horrible…. And this is coming from someone who can't tell a joke at all…"

Skyler said and then turned to Professor Oobleck, Blake tapped at her scroll, and Ruby took photos… Since people in Vale had given photos of Atlesian Tech, Skyler would allow it.

"20 Minutes to Mt. Glenn, Sir…. I'll have those first few squads deployed when we arrive…. I assume you're going with team RWBY and not on one of our dropships?"

Bran asked, Skyler, shook his head before Professor Oobleck spoke up.

"I would like to rest, Captain Azur, I have a team of Huntresses in training to observe once we arrive and I would like to least train to… Please, find me a room."

Oobleck put in, Bran motioned for 2 Atlesian Knight 200s to escort the senior Huntsmen to his room as he went to talk.

"Since we will be arriving in 20… In 20 minutes, I would suggest Team RWBY stay with me on the bridge…. Or go to the hanger…. I'm coming with them, so I should keep an eye on them… I am going to be killing Grimm with them…. Plus, I know Yang is going to punch the first Grimm she sees down there since strength is her strong suit…"

Skyler put in, Skyler saw Yang smirk and then rolled her eyes…. This would be a long flight.

(Mt. Glenn)

Adam had dispatched 2 of his trusted officers to the Mountain Town…. After their setbacks in Vale and the loss of men, he wouldn't allow just Roman to be in charge.

That left his Lieutenant and Shadow… All he knew on Shadow as he was known for killing anyone who fought him…. He would see if it was worth recruiting him…

He wanted whoever trashed that Paladin dead… His men wouldn't die in vain when they stole it… That was for sure.

Author notes

Phew, another chapter is done! Yes, I know this chapter is short, next chapter will be a bit longer but not 2000 words… As for Yang and Skyler? Their warming up to each other but not romantically yet…. The next chapter will be next Friday and will show Skyler with Team RWBY. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!

PS: Tomorrow or after that will be a Weiss story set in season 4 called Royal Renegade!
