A/N: For the guests leaving reviews freaking out, you all need to chill. If Willow just said either yes or no there would be no character development. Seeing as Pyrrha had virtually no character development in the show I'd like to explore some here at the very least.

For the reviews talking about how Willow said sharing with Pyrrha. Yes, Willow teased Pyrrha about sharing IF she met her standards but in my mind she would've done that more so to confirm her suspicions about Pyrrha liking Jaune not really as to imply she would share, but once again if she simply rolled over and said yes there wouldn't be much resolve there and she did say IF which implies a test of sorts. Simply put Willow is testing Pyrrha's conviction in this matter as to determine if she is simply infatuated or actually in love and how far the red head is willing to go for a chance at her partner's love.

Enjoy!

Ch 13

An Upscale Hotel in Vale

After unlocking her door and making her way to the hotel room's bathroom, Willow got undressed, turned on the shower, and stepped in.

As the events of the day went through her head she thought over everything again. From the office tour, to the reconciliation with her daughter, and even the conversation with Pyrrha.

Deciding she would just think about it later and inevitably talk it out with Jaune at a later date, she set about focusing on her shower and getting ready for the night.


Meanwhile in the other room Klein was calling up a few people and sending out messages.

Scrolling through the contacts for the SDC he found the one he trusted most and hit the call button. After a few rings the other line answered, "Hello?"

"Hey Richard, good to hear your voice."

"Klein!" Richard greeted. "Good to hear your voice too man. I'm guessing you aren't just calling to chat me up being as you're currently in Vale correct?"

"Correct as you usual, Mr. Birch." Klein said.

"Alright Klein, lay it on me. Must be important if you're using humor like that and calling me by last name." Richard said with a slight sigh.

"I need you to research some ancient laws that might allow a polygamous marriage, and do it quietly."

"Do I really need or want to ask?" Richard said with an even bigger sigh.

"It would seem that a certain someone is challenging the Misses about her um, monopoly on the man of the household." Klein said cautiously.

"Interesting." Richard replied as Klein could tell the man was rubbing his chin thinking of what he had just said. "And I presume the Mrs. isn't too keen to share, is she?"

"Well, I can't speak directly for the Misses but if you were in her position would you be keen to share?" Klein asked.

"No, no I don't think I would be, especially not after the glimpses I saw when I went to the Schnee manor to give Jacques important info and documents about recent happenings. Alright let me see what I can do. Any other things that require pressing attention?"

"Well Willow wants me to find a new IT person for the office here in Vale. She explicitly said though find someone new. Like, find someone from outside of the SDC to pull in and help out."

"Hmm. Well I know there is some rising talent at the Mantle base you might be able to recruit. The big wigs there might not appreciate it too much but the hiree probably would. Realistically speaking, pulling someone from a base like the one in Argus might be best. I've heard the ones calling the shots around there aren't too friendly. You'd be able to find someone who can keep up with Atlas quality tech who'd also more than likely jump at the chance to stick it to their boss and move up in the world."

"I hadn't thought of that if I'm being honest, although I suppose that's why I called you isn't it?" Klein said a laugh.

"Indeed old friend." Richard said as he let out a small laugh.

"And how would I get into contact with these potential recruits? It's been a while since I had to hire people after all." Klein said, as he tried to recall the methods he used last to hire people.

"I know a few recruiters in both Mantle and Argus who have some promising talent that have been wanting to step up into a higher role or are just disgruntled. Like I said though the ones in Argus might be more inclined to move than those in Mantle. Regardless, I'll have them send you a message with the info of the candidates." Richard said before quickly typing out a message to the recruiters he knew.

"Please send any of the recruits who you are in contact with that have an IT background to scroll number xxx-xxx-xxxx. They would be working with the SDC and have the opportunity of moving to Vale. The move would be covered." Richard quickly looked the message over and hit send.

"Alright, I sent the message. The SDC would be covering the move as standard, right?" Richard asked quickly realizing he might've messed up being this is an international move.

"Yes, we would be as Willow wants top tier talent."

"Alright, good." Richard said before a ping from his scroll went off. "Oh look, one of them has already got back with me. He knows of one that might be inclined to move as her family is still a younger one so they would be able to adjust to the move easier. He says he'll send her info over now. I'll let you get to it. Good luck Klein." Richard said before he hung up.

After hanging up with Richard, Klein set about browsing through his messages as he was trying to make sure he could easily find and review the information sent over to him.

As he was doing so a ping sounded and the information of the person in question popped up. "Well would you look at that." He said with a laugh as he clicked on the message and set about reviewing their resume and experience.

After about 10 minutes he copied her number and began typing out a message.

"Hello, my name is Klein Sieben and I work for Mrs. Schnee of the SDC. I was contacting you today to ask if you would be interested in an IT position with the SDC. We are planning to open a new office in Vale and need a head for the IT department and you came recommended from a trusted source of mine. If you would be interested please message me back at this number and we can see about setting up an interview to review your credentials and experience. Of course if you are chosen for the job the SDC will cover moving expenses as well as helping you find a suitable housing arrangement in Vale.

Best,

Klein Sieben"

After double checking the message for spelling and grammatical mistakes he hit send and put the scroll down so he could make sure he was ready for tonight as well. After all, a driver is always needed.


Meanwhile on the other side of the Remnant, the potential recruit in question just got back to her home after finishing shopping for the week's groceries.

"Honey, I'm home!" She called as she shut the front door. "Can you come help me put away the groceries?" She asked as she moved into the kitchen.

"Sure dear, just give me a second." Came the voice from down the hall.

As the woman was setting down the groceries her scroll pinged, indicating she had gotten a message. After pulling it out of her purse she looked at it and gasped in shock before racing down to the hall.

Throwing open the door to the bedroom she ran in. "Honey! Look! Look!" She said excitedly as she shoved the scroll in the blonde woman's face.

"They want to interview you? Congrats dear." Her wife said as she hugged her. "Oh, I'm so happy for you. This is an amazing opportunity." She cheered.

"A-ba-ba." A voice from over in the crib said and the couple looked over to see their son.

"Aw, hi buddy. Did you miss me today?" The worker woman said as she picked up the excited infant before her wife came over.

"Here give him to me for a second. We can all go have family time after you send that reply. This is a big deal honey. This will make you the head of an entire IT department, and they're willing to help us move to Vale no less." The blonde said as she took their infant son into her arms.

"You're right." The woman said as she handed the infant over to her wife and picked up her scroll to quickly send a reply back.

"Hello Mr. Sieben,
Thank you for reaching out to me about this job. I am very much interested in this job and would be delighted to get the chance to talk to you about it. Let me know when would be an opportune moment for you to speak.
Thank you,

Terra Cotta-Arc"

Smiling at the reply she had typed out, hit the send button on her scroll screen before the trio walked out into the living room for a family night.


Willow had just gotten out of the shower and was proceeding to get ready when her scroll pinged twice in quick succession. One message was from Klein saying he had people looking into the issue she requested as well as that he might have found someone capable to hire for the Valean branch.

The other message was from Jaune which read that they had a reservation for 7:00pm at the Silver Steakhouse. Looking over she checked the current time and discovered she still had about an hour and a half before the reservation.

Smiling, she opened the message and typed back that she and Klein would pick up Jaune and Weiss from the bullhead docks at 6:30pm so they could all make their way over to the steakhouse together and be on time. After hitting send Willow put down the scroll again and continued to fix her hair in preparation for the coming dinner reservation that she would leave for in an hour.


Back at Beacon, Jaune had just finished getting ready and after saying goodbye to his teammates walked across the hall to knock on team RWBY's door.

After a few knocks the door opened to reveal Yang was the one who opened it. "Well, well, Vomit boy I must say you clean up to look like a million lien."

"Thanks Yang." Jaune said with a small laugh as he scratched the back of his neck. "Is Weiss ready? We need to get going soon." Jaune asked after he regained some of his composure.

"I'm coming." Weiss said before walking into view of Jaune.

"You look great Weiss." Jaune said as he saw her dress for the evening. She was wearing a blue gradient dress that eventually faded to white towards the ankles with a slit in the left side for her leg, with a pair of dark blue heels to go with it. (Think her post time skip dress but without the jacket.)

"As do you, Jaune." Weiss said as she took in her stepfather's appearance.

Jaune was wearing a simple pair of black slacks and a nice light blue dress shirt along with a pair of black oxfords.

"Aw, did someone finally start to warm up to daddy?" Yang teased followed by laughing as she made her way to her bed.

"Ugh." Weiss groaned. "Come on Jaune, no need to keep my mother waiting any longer than she has too." Weiss said as she began walking down the hall.

Seeing this, Jaune quickly said goodbye to Yang and Blake as well before following after Weiss. In doing so he failed to notice a certain ginger haired peeking out of his own room.

Quickly closing the door, Nora turned around to face Pyrrha and Ren.

"Ren, it's girl talk time so I need you to get out for a little bit or go to the bathroom." Nora said as she turned to her partner.

With a slight sigh Ren put down the book he was reading and reached over to his backpack before pulling out a pair of over ear headphones. After pressing a button to turn them on and then putting them on he gave a thumbs up to Nora.

"That works too I guess." Nora said as she turned to face Pyrrha.

"What?" Ren asked as he saw his partner move her lips.

"I said that works too." Nora said as she turned back to Ren.

"What?" Ren asked again, this time though the smile was showing a little.

"Why you little." Nora said with a laugh as she turned back to Pyrrha and looked away from the now laughing Ren who went back to reading the book he was reading beforehand.

"Alright he's gone, so what happened between you and Willow?" Nora asked her fellow redhead in a serious tone.

"Well…" Pyrrha started before giving Nora the quick rundown of what happened.


After Pyrrha had finished explaining the conversation that took place Nora sat down beside her.

"So she wants you to examine your interactions with our fearless leader to determine if it's actual love or just infatuation?" Nora asked.

"That's what she said." Pyrrha replied as she looked at her female teammate.

"Well that should be easy enough." Nora said.

"What do you mean?"

"Just keep a little notebook with you throughout the day and write down all the things you admire about Jaune."

"But what about the laws and proving the things I write down are love?" Pyrrha asked as she made a mental note to get a small notebook later.

"Well I can write you down each law but this here might help with the latter issue at hand." Nora said as she reached around and pulled out a book from her bag before handing it to Pyrrha.

"Love for dummies?" Pyrrha questioned as she took the book from Nora.

"Well yeah, if it can work for dummies it can work for someone as smart as you. If not, you just need to take the more forceful approach."

"Nora, I'm not breaking Willow's or Jaune's legs." Pyrrha said with a sigh.

"No silly. Just knock them out and tie them up." Nora said with a laugh and a wave of her hand.

"Nora, I can't do that either." Pyrrha said seriously as she looked at her teammate.

"Why not? I was going to do it to Renny if he didn't listen." Nora asked.

"WHAT?" Ren shouted from over on his bed.

"I KNEW IT!" Nora shouted as she turned to face Ren before pointing her finger at him. "Those headphones aren't noise canceling at all, are they?"

"No they are. They simply ran out of battery because I've had to use them so much and haven't had time to charge them." Ren said as he put down his book and headphones and walked over to the redhead duo.

"Look Pyrrha," Ren said as he got over to the duo, "love is a complicated thing and I don't think we might be best suited for giving advice. After all we're just students the same as you, the only difference is we are both in a relationship. However, I don't think that qualifies us to give relationship advice, especially being that our relationship is so young and well it didn't exactly get its start normally." Ren said as he blushed a little.

"So what do you recommend?" Pyrrha asked.

"Why don't you go take a walk and think about it. Or we can go and take a walk while you think about it here in our room." Ren said before Nora could suggest anything.

"I think some fresh air would do me good." Pyrrha said as she stood up and grabbed Miló and Akoúo.

"Expecting trouble Pyrrha?" Nora asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Not just taking them with me in case I want to blow off some steam in the training rooms." Pyrrha said before opening the door and turning back to look at her teammates. "Besides a good huntress or huntsman always keeps his weapon nearby incase of emergencies." Pyrrha said with a smile before walking out and closing the door beind her.

"Well back to my book." Ren said as he turned around and made his way to his bed.

"Oh no mister." Nora said as she tackled her partner onto his bed. "You tricked me, so it's time to make it up to me." Nora said with a wide smile.

"Fine, I'll get the pancakes." Ren said with a smile as Nora fist pumped causing Ren to laugh.


Meanwhile Klein had knocked on Willow's door to inform her it was time to depart so they could pick up Jaune and Weiss and the two made their way to the car out front.

"Did you get anywhere on those leads you were sent Klein?" Willow asked as the two walked towards the car.

"Indeed I did. One of them proved to be quite an interesting woman." Klein said with a smile as he opened one of the rear doors for Willow.

"Good deal, see that she is interviewed and hired if she seems like she'd be a good fit." Willow said as she stepped into the back seat of the car.

Klein nodded before closing the door and moving around to the driver's door and getting in.

After a short drive, the car pulled up outside the bullhead landing pads as Willow and Klein waited for the arrival of the bullhead Jaune and Weiss were aboard. Meanwhile back at Beacon several figures were arriving in their airships.


As Pyrrha was walking down the hall lost in thought at the words Nora and Ren had said she debated in her mind the pros and cons of both and who might be more of a knowledgeable source to give her information on her debacle.

She thought of going to a few professors but quickly ruled out several of those. Professor Port would talk about some story from his younger years and probably not be that helpful. Dr. Oobleck would talk too fast and probably focus more on the science of love which she felt probably wouldn't help her in her situation. She'd talk to Professor Peach but then again she wasn't that close with her and well she was rumored to be in a relationship with Professor Port so yeah probably not the best advice there.

That left Professor Goodwitch and Headmaster Ozpin. Ozpin would probably be too busy to help out with her love crisis and Glynda seemed the kind of woman who was more focused on her career than a love life. Something Pyrrha could relate all too well too from her Tournament days.

"Maybe I should go to Professor Goodwitch, we might have more in common than I think." Pyrrha thought to herself before her walk down the hall was stopped abruptly as she walked into someone.

"I'm sorry." Pyrrha said quickly as she got up off the person and offered a hand to her, who bore a striking resemblance to one of her sister's team's members.

"No no, it's my fault." Winter said as she grabbed Pyrrha's hand, stood up, and dusted herself off. "Still though Ms. Nikos, it doesn't seem like you're the type to wander the halls so distracted. Is there something on your mind?" Winter asked in a sincere voice.

"N-no." Pyrrha said nervously as she glanced away to which Winter responded by just raising an eyebrow before sighing.

"Is it about Weiss?" Winter asked.

"No, no it's not." Pyrrha said this time more confidently as she wasn't lying.

"Well that's good. I'd hate to hear something is amiss that involves my sister."

"Well, she has been different since Jaune left and then got back so the change has been kind of noticeable. In a good way though." Pyrrha said before quickly adding that last part.

"So, it's about Jaune then?" Winter asked with a smile of a cat who caught the canary.

"No, no it's not. How would you even assume that anyway." Pyrrha said with a blush as she looked away from Winter.

"Well dear girl, you just blushed when you said his name and he's your partner so that is usually where problems arise from what I've seen." Winter explained before continuing, "Sometimes conflict is related to a decision or leadership style, other times it romantical issues. Is it fair to assume it's probably the latter here as well?"

"...yes." Pyrrha said hesitantly.

"Well why don't we go find a place to sit and you can tell me about it. I've recently found that talking is one of the best ways to settle your mind on a specific matter." Winter said as she motioned for Pyrrha to follow her as the duo walked a little before finding a sitting area and taking a seat after Winter had bought both of them coffee from the nearby vending machine.

"So, do you want to elaborate on what's on your mind?" Winter asked

"Well to make a long story short, your mother figured out I love Jaune and my other female teammate found some ancient laws regarding polygamy between people of different countries to try and help me. And well, I presented what my teammate found to her. After that she challenged me to prove myself that I actually love Jaune and it's not just infatuation."

"And you are finding that difficult to do, I presume?" Winter asked after taking a sip from her coffee.

"Yeah, I am. I've read various books and articles about love and how if you accept their flaws and imperfections and being able to feel content around them and wanting to spend your whole life with them. I've only known Jaune since we started Beacon though so I think Willow might be discounting that."

"Hmm." Winter hummed as she sat back in her chair clearly pondering the issue, before speaking after thirty or so seconds. "I'd have to say that you just need to go along and see your interactions more in depth from a love vs infatuation view. As well as see how these feelings maintain, fade, or grow stronger over time. After all, as you said, the main issue you think is that you haven't known him for that long, right?"

"That's correct." Pyrrha answered.

"Well then just see how these feelings change over time is the easy answer. Although I will say time is a bit of a hypocritical element here as you've known Jaune longer than my mother but she's married to him." Winter said with an amused smile.

"Ugh, I know. Don't remind me." Pyrrha replied as she set her head on the table.

"Well cheer up invincible girl, it may yet go your way. Then again it might not but the important thing is you tried." Winter said as she stood up.

"And who knows," Winter continued as she walked towards Pyrrha before stopping and placing a hand on her shoulder. "If it doesn't work out, that just means you were destined to be with someone else, and you never know who that might be or where they might be." Winter said with a sincere smile and a pat on the shoulder before walking towards and down the hallway connected to the room and disappearing around the corner.

"Alright, I at least have to try. If I don't I'll never know how it's supposed to end." Pyrrha thought with renewed determination before deciding to make her way back to her room.

"Oh yeah, Ren and Nora are in there right now. Maybe it's best I go to the rocket locker room and do some maintenance on my weapons instead." Pyrrha thought to herself as she began making her way now to the rocket lockers to do work on her gear.


"Hello James." Ozpin said as he saw the general walk into his office.

"Hello Ozpin." General Ironwood replied as he sat down at one of the chairs at Ozpin's desk.

"You seem to be missing someone, aren't you James?"

"No, she's here. She went to escort that brother of hers back to the bullhead docks and maybe get a meal with him before that. Family bonding has been something that has been more important to her recently."

"Well speaking of recently, there must've been some change in plans recently if you're here so early." Ozpin said before taking a sip from his mug and continuing, "And with a whole armada no less." Ozpin finished as he gestured to the ships outside his window.

"There's a reason for this, Ozpin." General Ironwood said calmly.

"Oh?" Ozpin asked with a raised eyebrow. "Then do tell me James, why is there an armada of Atlesian battleships outside MY office hovering over MY school, and no doubt scaring the people of Vale as well? Hmm?"

"Well, after the recent incidents with Torchwick, the council thought it would be best for me to be in charge of the security for the vital festival."

"And you accepted? James, you realize this plays directly into HER hands, right? I mean surely someone as smart as you must know that right?"

"Something must be done Oz. If we just sit around and wait for Salem to make her move we WILL be caught off guard, and I will not sit around and wait for that to happen."

"Then what would you have me do James? Announce to the world her presence? Make up some elaborate story so I can thoroughly vet all festival attendees? Do a background check on every man, women, and child who purchases a ticket?" Ozpin asked once again with a raised eyebrow and heavy sarcasm.

"Well we have to do something Ozpin! It's not like they are going to let something happen if we do nothing." Ironwood yelled as a beeping sound was heard starting to come to life from the other side of Ozpin's desk.

"Oz, what is that?" Ironwood said as he brought a hand up to his face.

"That James, is the sound of something happening while we have done nothing." Ozpin said smugly as he reached over to the intercom on his desk and pushed a button. "Glynda please prepare a flight to Downtown Vale, it appears a rocket locker has been deployed there."

"Yes sir." Glynda said quickly as she started to arrange the flight.

"Sometimes I really hate you Ozpin, maybe that drunkard too. His semblance might be rubbing off on me." Ironwood said with a sigh.

"Oh enough of that, come along now." Ozpin said as he stood up and grabbed his cane. "We got villains to catch." Ozpin finished as he walked to the elevator door alongside Ironwood.


1 hour earlier

Vale bullhead docks

"Ah, there they are." Weiss said as she pointed at the black limo parked near the exit of the bullhead terminal.

"Alright, let's go." Jaune said as he walked with Weiss towards the car and opened the door for her.

After letting Weiss get in, Jaune followed suit and closed the door behind him.

"Good evening Willow." "Good evening Mother." Jaune and Weiss said as they leaned back into their seats.

"Good evening you two. You both look great." Willow said as she looked over the two of them.

"As do you Willow." Jaune said as he looked at his wife.

"Thank you Jaune." Willow said before turning her head and speaking again. "Klein, we can go to the restaurant now." Willow said before a click was heard as the car was put into gear and the car began making its way to the restaurant.

"So Jaune," Willow said as she turned her attention back towards the blond teen. "How were you able to get a reservation so quickly? For the Silver Steakhouse you usually need like a two day advance notice to get a reservation."

"Well, my dad kind of saved the owner in a grim raid in a frontier town awhile back. So, he's become a family friend and my dad and mom often go there for their date nights." Jaune said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Well that explains it then." Willow said before shifting her gaze to Weiss. "Anyway Weiss, how is class going for you?"

"Classes are going pretty good. I'm maintaining A's in my classes and doing quite well in combat class." Weiss said proudly.

"Well that's good to hear. How about you, Jaune? How are you doing?" Willow said.

"Well I'm getting better in my studies, but I'm not on Weiss' level yet. I'm doing better in my training now with the new equipment, but I've yet to fight in Professor Goodwitch's class so I don't know how that'll play out. Oh but I am getting the hang of all the terminology in the books Klein sent with me." Jaune said proudly.

"Well that's great to hear. I'm sure he'll be more than happy to give you more to look over and study. Isn't that right Klein?" Willow said with a smirk as the car came to a halt.

"Correct you are, Mrs. Schnee." Klein said as he looked back at the trio and chuckled as he saw Jaune's face pale a little as his humor. "Oh and if you couldn't tell we've arrived. I'd let you all out myself but there is a line and I must be making my way back to the bullhead docks so I can go to Beacon and retrieve Mr. Whitley." Klein said apologetically.

"It's fine Klein, you know I don't need that stuff. Jaune here can be a dear and help me and Weiss out of the car." Willow said with a small laugh as Jaune mock sighed before opening the car door, getting out and extending a hand to the two ladies still in the car in his best mock princely action.

After he had helped them out of the car, Jaune walked with the pair up to the man who was standing behind the podium busily taking names of guests and directing staff on where to sit the people who's tables were now ready.

Noticing the trio the man turned towards Jaune and began speaking.

"Hello sir and madams, and welcome to the Silver Steakhouse. Do you three have a reservation with us tonight?"

"Indeed we do my good man. There should be a reservation for Jaune Arc at 7:00pm." Jaune said with confidence.

"Arc, Arc, Arc," The man mumbled as he scanned down the list before spotting it. "Ah ha, there it is. If you follow me, I'll personally escort you three to the VIP room." The man said as he turned around and began walking into the restaurant.

As the trio followed the man into the restaurant and into the "VIP room", which was really just more of a closed off portion of the restaurant, they were greeted by the sight of a table with a white tablecloth and shiny sets of silverware in front of each of the three chairs.

Walking up to the table Jaune pulled out the seats of both Willow and Weiss before pushing them in and then moving to sit down himself.

"Your server will be right with you to get your drink orders." The man finished with a slight bow before hurrying back to the podium at the front of the restaurant.

"Well this place looks nice." Weiss commented.

"Indeed, it certainly does." Willow said in agreement.

"Well Mr. Slate does take pride in this place for a reason after all. This is the very restaurant he first opened when he got to Vale." Jaune said before a voice from behind him spoke.

"Indeed it was Jauney and I slept in my office for a while before I could pay rent to make it happen." Van said with a laugh as he wrapped an arm around Jaune in a slight hug. "How have you been, boy? You've certainly grown since I've seen you last. It must've been at least two years since you stopped by."

"I've been good Mr. Slate. I got accepted into Beacon and uh was made aware of my family being expanded." Jaune said with a nervous laugh as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Ah, it's all good, sonny. I'm just giving you a little bit of a hard time." Van said with a smile as he removed his arm from Jaune and turned to Willow. "Although if I may, you got a good one ma'am." Van finished with a slight nod.

After a little more small talk, Van clapped his hands and said "Anyways, your server will be right over but I just wanted to check in on my favorite nephew. I'll let you all get back to your meal, have a good night." Van said as he proceeded to head towards the kitchen.

"I thought you said he was a family friend?" Willow asked as she turned back towards Jaune after watching the man who she now knew was Van leave.

"He is, he just considers us all practically family since dad saved him. He's one of those people who everyone close to him and his family is an uncle or he's an uncle to him." Jaune explained.

"It seemed like he knew of your arrangement, Jaune. Can he be trusted to keep that secret, well a secret?" Weiss asked, speaking for the first time in a few minutes.

"Yes, yes he can be. He's practically family and not someone who even allows so much as paparazzi in his restaurant." Jaune said with a smile.

"Well that's good." Weiss said with a smile as she pulled out her scroll to text Ruby who had just sent her a message.

"Yup, everything should go pretty smoothly tonight. Only thing we should have to worry about is the steak not being cooked exactly how we want it." Jaune said with a chuckle as he lifted his menu.

No later than half a minute or so after he said this the doors burst open and in walked several men in black suits with red ties and red sunglasses.

Leading them was a red haired man who was wearing a red-lined white suit with long black pants and black shoes to go with it. He also had on a small gray scarf, black gloves with buckled sleeves, along with a black bowler hat to top off the look.

"Ladies and gentleman, if I can have your attention please." The man said loud enough to get everyone to stop and look towards him.

"My name, as you all know, is Roman Torchwick and so long as everyone here is cooperative, we'll be out of your hair in just a few short minutes and no one will get hurt." Roman said in a grandiose voice before looking towards the hired help.

"Get their valuables, scrolls, and all cash on them in the bags. I want to be out of here in less than five minutes. Go!" Roman commanded as the mobsters set about completing their work.

Back in the VIP area, Willow, seeing all of this just sighed before mumbling, "Dammit Jaune. You just had to say that."


So there you have it. Roman strikes, Atlas arrives, Klein recruits new employees, and Pyrrha tries getting some relationship help. What will happen next time? Tune in to find out later.

On a somewhat related note, I might be writing a few smaller one shots as I've had some ideas pop into mind and really develop so all I need to do is put fingers to keyboard and type them out. So check back for that. Updates for this though will probably remain infrequent as they are right now due to the new job I accepted requiring lots of time and effort. Rest assured the story won't be abandoned and will be completed. Have a good day everyone and thanks for reading! :)
