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.
(Atlas, during 'Worst Case Scenario'.)
Clover watched as Yang threw an uppercut at Robyn which was redirected. Robyn kicked Yang to the ground before Skyler managed to force her back with a slash from Lazuli Centurion.
"This is low… Even for you." Skyler hissed at Robyn before the woman backflipped away. Yang flipped to her feet in time to deflect an arrow with Ember Celica.
"This coming from the person working for the man keeping secrets. Letting Mantle suffer while he tinkers?" Robyn questioned as she deflected a shot from Yang. "That's rich." Robyn sneered before fleeing.
Skyler rushed after Robyn as Clover directed Marrow and Vine. Vine grabbed at the woman as she leaped over traffic. Skyler leaped and fired off a round that propelled him over traffic.
Yang frowned at Robyn's words but continued after her.
(With Skyler)
Robyn turned and fired an arrow which Skyler split in half with his blade. Skyler stopped, spinning on his heel, and fired a shot. Robyn blocked it with her shield before Clover landed behind him.
"Ms. Hill," Clover said as he readied Kingfisher. "You're under arrest for the assault of Atlas personal, theft of government property, and treason against the Government of Atlas," Clover said before Marrow and Vine arrived with him.
"Ironwood's going to need a lot more than his hit squad to take me down," Robyn stated as Skyler shook his head. Robyn rushed at Skyler before vaulting off his arm and onto a wall.
She sprinted up it before being cut off by a Manta. Skyler rushed up the wall at Robyn who flipped onto another roof.
Skyler frowned before he rushed after her.
"Atlas is under siege and your assaulting military convoys for your 'fight da power!' campaign?!" Skyler asked as he tossed a punch at Robyn which she tried to redirect. Skyler countered by firing a round from his cybernetic arm. "You want me to respect you for turning the election into all-out rebellion against Solitas? Our home?" Skyler questioned with venom evident in his voice.
Robyn was forced backward before the Manta floated up into the air. Skyler looked to see Yang flip onto the roof using a shot to throw herself into the air.
Robyn looked at the Manta which was joined by another. Skyler hummed before Robyn looked up at the Atlesian soldiers.
"Please surrender, Ms. Hill," Clover stated as Skyler looked over at Robyn. "Your 'revolution' isn't going to fix Mantle," Clover stated while Robyn looked around.
Her Happy Huntresses ended up fleeing after spotting Atlesian Air Support… And the Atlesian military had not pulled any punches. Harriet and Elm showed up with more Atlesian Soldiers.
"Don't try it." Harriet hissed before Robyn lunged at Skyler and Yang. She kicked Yang off the roof. Skyler and Robyn landed in a courtyard before the Atlesian forces started to reposition themselves.
"You talk a big game when you have your military behind you," Robyn stated while Skyler shook his head and looked at the Huntress leader. "You can't back that up on your own," Robyn added as Skyler rolled his eyes.
"Funny considering, I have the report of you confronting a convoy with the Happy Huntresses," Skyler stated as he blocked a swing from Robyn's weapon. "You can't spin it like Atlas is always the bad guys when you LIVE IN ATLAS, HILL!" Skyler yelled at Robyn before twisting around a swing at his hips.
Skyler deflected another swing at his head while punching Robyn back. Her Aura glowed golden as she slid backward.
"Then why isn't the wall fixed?!" Robyn shouted back and Skyler hummed before Robyn fired an arrow at his face. Skyler caught it with his right hand before tossing it aside. "WHY IS IRONWOOD HIDING SO MUCH FROM US!?" Robyn screamed as Skyler shook his head.
Both were unaware that Yang was listening as the duo fought. Skyler twisted around another strike before looking at Robyn.
"You're not part of the council," Skyler stated as Robyn backflipped away. "You don't get to point fingers considering you stealing from the army makes the entire kingdom suffer," Skyler added while he paced back and forth.
"Funny considering how nobody knows that since the 'Glorious General Ironwood' doesn't tell us anything like that," Robyn said while Skyler leaned on his sword and looked at the woman in question.
"You all done yet?" Skyler asked and rolled his eyes once more. Yang landed next to him. "Because the only way you're getting out was to fight the entire army you seem to hate so much," Skyler said while looking around at the rest of the military forces around them.
"I'm not going down without a fight," Robyn stated while lunging forward at the duo.
Skyler sighed and prepared to duel the Happy Huntress leader. Skyler didn't want to waste their time fighting, someone when Merlot was still around.
But if it helped Solitas? He'd duel her.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter is done! I want to point out the next fight will be longer and such. The next chapter will be in 3-7 weeks and will show the fight with Robyn. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
P.S: The story has 20-25 chapters left. Updates are slow and the next chapter is 900-1500 words.
