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.

(50 miles from Haven.)

Bumblebee roared through the forest as Skyler clung to Yang's back, Blizzard followed the duo as Skyler laughed.

"I should have guessed you had a motorcycle." Skyler laughed as Yang grinned, they continued racing through the forest before slowing down.

"You good? Are you having fun? I sure am." Yang asked with a purr, Skyler flicked her on the head and laughed before they continued riding.

"You know we can't drive right to Haven, right? You might have a cool bike, but I doubt it could get us all the way there without some more Dust." Skyler said as Yang nodded. He wouldn't admit it, at least not to her face, but Skyler was loving the motorcycle ride, it was fun, and it allowed him and Yang to bond some more.

"I know a station where we can fuel up, it's another 5 miles up the road," Yang stated, Skyler nodded, and the couple continued to drive through the forest before the bike leaped onto the road, Skyler laughed while Yang grinned.

"Crazy little firefly!" Skyler laughed before the brawler pulled the bike to the side of the road, Yang stepped off the back, cracking her back and then her knuckles and neck.

"I am never driving more than 2 hours again," Yang said as Skyler hopped off the bike and did the same.

"Well, it isn't my fault you wanted to drive towards Haven… I mean, you have a nice bike and all that, but we could be flying towards Haven and Raven." Skyler said as he leaned on a tree, he then leaned down to look at Bumblebee as Yang watched him, Skyler looked at the wheels.

"Geez, where did you get this bike anyway? I've never seen something like this." Skyler said, Yang, laughed as Skyler leaned down further.

"I'm serious, I've worked on a lot of Atlas tech, and I haven't seen a bike like yours… Where'd you get her?" Skyler asked as Yang leaned on a tree.

"I got it from my uncle as a birthday girl when I graduated Signal, I fixed her up myself," Yang explained. Skyler was busy checking under the bike, making sure that he didn't get any oil on his clothing.

"I can see a lot of these modifications are custom… You find a way to make me love you, even more, every day, don't you, Firefly?" Skyler said as Yang sat next to him, Skyler looked at the gas tank where the Dust was and then turned to her.

"You know we're going to be running into a massive number of bandits, right? I mean, I've heard a lot of bandits are around here." Skyler said, Yang, made a big deal of making gasps and put a hand on her chest.

"My! I guess I must rely on my dashing knight in white and blue to deal with such horrible ruffians!" Yang stated in an Atlesian accent so fake it wasn't even close.

Yang watched as Skyler tried to fight a smirk on his face before he cracked up and burst out laughing as she smirked.

"DAMN IT, YANG, STOP MAKING JOKES LIKE THAT! I HEARD YOU'VE MADE CRAPPY JOKES, BUT I DIDN'T THINK YOU COULD DO ONE TO MAKE ME LAUGH!" Skyler said between snorts as Yang rolled her eyes at her doofus of a fiancée.

"Hey, you're the one thinking BANDITs can handle me when I've dealt with White Fang soldiers, hordes of Grimm, and hardened criminals… I think I can handle some guys who want to point some guns at my face and ask me to give them all my money." Yang said, Skyler, rolled his eyes and pinched his nose with his cybernetic arm.

"Yang, I meant we're close with your mother. I know you can beat the snot out of everyone around you and I built that arm you used to kill Adam." Skyler muttered, Yang clenched her hand as Skyler rubbed her back, soothing her as Skyler sighed.

"Yang, don't think about that, you won… We should get going, we need to find a lead to Raven if you're set on finding her." Skyler said, Yang, nodded.

(Somewhere in Mistral)

Merlot sat and watched Cinder and her group, he had given them instructions, he also had a lead on Skyler and Yang.

"Soon the dark Queen will rise… And such beautiful Grimm to study will be available to me. I only have to wait until I find those relics." Merlot stated and crossed his arms he looked over vats of Grimm being grown and more of his androids being pieced together on belts.

"It's time to set the stage at Haven, Mr. Azur…" Merlot said with an insane grin. He pressed a button and a container full of his soldiers was placed onto one of his cargo ships.

It was time for war.
