Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of The Dragon and her rook. Enjoy the 1500- word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.

(Just Rite, Welcome to Haven.)

Yang slowed Bumblebee as she leaped off it, Skyler climbed off the bike and looked at the store before Yang began counting Lien from her pocket.

"Yang, I can pay if you want," Skyler said, dipping into his pocket, considering the work Black Ops handled, it wasn't surprising they were given a lot of Lien for their work.

"Your sweet, but I'm fine Sky. You want to come inside?" Yang asked, Skyler, cracked his back again and nodded.

"I need a soda and we can rest anyway; we can head towards Haven as soon as we're done with Raven," Skyler muttered as he walked inside, there were few people in the store, Skyler turned to Yang.

"Can you just get me a soda and a burger and fries? I haven't even since yesterday and Atlas food is… Sludge compared to regular food." Skyler said, giving Yang the Lien needed to buy it as Yang nodded and walked over.

"Quaint," Skyler muttered, Yang walked over to the bartender, Skyler looked at the man next to Yang for a second before going back to looking around the store.

"Aren't you a little young to be drinking, lady?" The bartender asked as Yang rolled her eyes and leaned on the counter, taking off her glasses.

"Water, it's hot out. My boyfriend wants a soda and burger and friends if that's cool." Yang said as Skyler chuckled.

Yang, someone who had a temper like a Volcano, was getting warm? He blinked, he forgot it wasn't Winter like it was in Atlas.

"What's a pretty little huntress doing out here alone? You don't look the type to be dating." The man next to Yang said Skyler could smell liquor on his breath and wafted at the air with his cybernetic hand.

"I'm getting married soon, buddy. I'm good." Yang stated, Skyler looked at her who motioned that she could handle this.

"Seriously, you're not too bulky, not too lean, you seem…" The man started to say as Yang sighed and looked at the man with her temper sliding away.

"I'm just right, I know. I'm good." Yang said, the man was getting on both her and Skyler's nerves, Skyler moved to get involved, rearing back his left hand.

"I bet you probably are lying about having a boyfriend, you have such pretty…" The man started to say before Yang sighed.

"Well…" Yang started to say, grabbing his shirt with her left arm, her eyes turning from Lilac to crimson.

"What?" The man said before Yang decked him her right arm, he slammed into the ceiling, came back down, a tooth fell from his mouth as he slammed through the doors.

The sign on the door flipped as Skyler winced, Yang brushed off her jacket before her left-hand shook, Skyler put a hand on her back and rubbed it.

"Yang, breath, the dirtbag is gone… You decked him harder than a freight train." Skyler stated as Yang nodded, the bartender came back with their food and drinks.

"Thank you for throwing that drunk out… It's on the house." The bartender said as Skyler pulled the food towards Yang with his right arm, continuing to rub her back with his other hand.

"Thank you, she'll be fine, she's gone through a lot in the past few weeks," Skyler said as Yang drank the water as the man went to speak.

"What brings you both around these parts? You Atlesian?" The barkeep asked as Yang held up her other hand and drank.

"Colonel, on military business, she's looking for someone and I'm helping. She's, my fiancée." Skyler stated and held up his ring on his left hand as he pulled the glove off.

"Well, there isn't a lot out here besides bandits, Haven is a long way away… Only one out here worth anything is Rav-…" The man started to say before Yang finally spoke up.

"Raven Branwen, thanks," Yang said, grabbing her glasses as Skyler grabbed their food as Yang started to go.

"Wait lady, you don't want to screw with bandits, their bad news…" The man said as Yang stopped at the door.

"So, I hear," Yang said before Skyler sighed and turned to the barkeep.

"Yang, get some food, you're going to run yourself to the ground. We aren't in a rush." Skyler said. Yang sighed and looked at her fiancée.

"10 minutes, we can spare that much, can't we?" Skyler asked, he didn't want Yang marching off with a temper. He didn't need her rushing in blind.

"5," Yang said and Skyler nodded before she turned to the barkeep.

"Noodles if you have any," Yang said, Skyler sat at a table and sighed, Yang took a seat across from him as both shared a look.

"You know I could have handled that for you, he wasn't worth it, Yang. He was just a drunk trying to flirt with you." Skyler said, swirling a fry in ketchup before eating it.

"I had it handled… You're not mad about the flirting?" Yang asked with a slight smirk, Skyler smirked at the jab and rolled his eyes.

"He has nothing on me, firefly. I doubt I'd have to step in, you could have smashed his face in with 2 fingers." Skyler said as he grabbed a fry before Yang swiped it from his fingers and tossed it into her mouth with a catlike grin.

Skyler rolled his eyes and held up another fry which Yang let Skyler throw into her mouth. Yang did the same as Skyler leaned back as Yang flipped it into his mouth.

"You're such a dork sometimes," Yang said with a smile as Skyler chuckled.

"But I'm your dork, firefly… And I just calmed you down, which I think makes me an awesome fiancée." Skyler said as Yang rolled her eyes and helped him finish off the fries before the man walked over.

"There's no noodles." The man stated, Yang nodded and got up as Skyler grabbed the burger, dumped it into ketchup, and then took it as he put Lien on the table and grabbed a napkin.

He takes 2 big bites and then 1 more as he and Yang walked outside as Skyler prepared to finish his burger.

The man had finally woken up as Yang walked toward Bumblebee and Skyler finished his burger and tossed what was left into a trash can.

"Hey, girlie!" The bandit said and both Skyler and Yang shared a look.

"She didn't punch you hard enough for you to get the hint, dude?" Skyler said as he went to deck the jackass who had the guts to tick off Yang.

"I heard you both looking for someone soon. Heh." Skyler heard as Yang and he shared a look.

"You give us a minute…?" Skyler said before pulling Yang around the side of the building.

"He's a bandit, he knows where Raven is," Yang whispered as Skyler watched an Atlas dropship hover over the gas station, keeping the man from running off with the bike.

"He's also going to lead us into an ambush. You knocked his teeth out, Yang." Skyler said, Yang, rolled her eyes.

"You don't think I can handle a bunch of third-rate thugs?" Yang asked, Skyler, shook his head.

"I know you can, but Raven is more than them, you can't fight her army of bandits then roll in expecting answers when you're tired and without any Aura. She'd kill you in a second if you fought her at anything less than full strength." Skyler said as Yang sighed.

"What do you suggest then? We have to find Raven before we find Ruby." Yang asked, Skyler, sighed and racked his brain.

"You want me to say what I'd do as a soldier then? We find out where that ambush is, we ambush them and confront Raven… I can get us some answers, but if we go and talk to your mom…" Skyler said as Yang nodded, already.

"You're going to bring in an entire army just for my mom?" Yang asked, Skyler, held her cybernetic arm with his own and laced their fingers together.

"You have no idea what your mom can do, Yang… I'd prefer it if she had guns on her at all times as opposed to her stabbing you and making me lose it in the middle of a bandit camp… Promise me this doesn't get personal… Your little sister needs you." Skyler said.

Yang nodded.
