Note: For the sake of comedy, we're playing on that this is a rewrite based if the rest of the volumes were planned and if RWBY was a bit more swear happy. Do not assume, the rewrites bits are canon to each other unless it clearly stated.

V5 – "Changing the Script…"

One look at the script of Volume 5 was enough for Mirai to light it on fire glaring at it.

Look, I could actually do some bits, but there's so many issues with V5 that everyone has talked about. It'd be redundant as stale comedy. But, I am going to raise something.

Why did Raven even take in the Spring Maiden and kill her if she wanted to stay out of Ozpin and Salem's war?

And with Raven being a maiden, why not steal the relic and ransom it? She ransomed Weiss, speaking of which…how exactly were they going to get in contact with Papa Schnee?

For a feared bandit, her entire tribe is fodder save for Vernal.

The battle of Haven is a total diaster, and to rewrite it would require a lot of attention to detail.

Cinder should have died this volume.

The power leveling is inconsistent.

Adam. All of it.

Raven could have blackmailed Ozpin with the maiden powers to tell the entire truth of his past.

V6E4 – "Actually, I had a plan. You guys screwed it up."

"Do you even have a plan?" Blake asked as everyone was glaring at Ozcar.

"I had one…but it's not going to be possible…" Ozpin said only for Qrow to punch him before Ozpin could finish.

Oscar's body hit the tree, and Yang was able to punch him only for Ruby to stop her.

"First off, the reason why it's not going to possible to because I made the mistake of trusting Jaune to guard the machine to transfer…and trusting you, Qrow, to guard Amber." Ozpin said getting up and spitting out snow. "If I recall, you couldn't make out Cinder among the wreckage."

"Wait, what? The machine that Amber was in…was for Salem?" Qrow asked confused.

"Yes, the plan was to drain her magic into my body. She'd be immortal, but unable to use magic. Then we can imprison her in the deepest hole we can make." Ozpin explained. "I didn't have a plan back then because the technology wasn't ready. Plus, did you take to consider that I was dragged into doing this like you. My only mistake was not needed a warning…Salem's a clear sociopath. She literally has all the signs of one."

Thinking back and with Ozpin's clear explanation, they slowly began to realize how screwed up it all really was. That while Ozpin was guilty of hiding this, he was just as much a victim as they were.

"What about my mother?" Ruby asked.

"Summer. Ruby, child, what Salem did to her….is better left unsaid." Ozpin said haunted by the memory before letting Oscar took control.

"Oh…sorry about punching…GAH!" Qrow said before Oscar punted his crotch. "Ok, I deserve that."

Oscar was glaring at Yang and Qrow on the road ahead with Ruby's mind swimming with questions.

V6E8 – "Hard Lessons"

Back at Saphron's home, Jaune punches the wall, leaving a very large crack in it. Ruby and crew had just spilled about Ozpin's past and reactions were not so well.

"Jaune!" Ruby said feeling damaging the wall was completely unneeded.

"Did you have to damage my wall?" Saphron said dryly glaring at her brother.

"Everything we did was for nothing!" Jaune said punching the wall again leaving another crack. "FUCK!"

"Ok, I'm making you pay for the wall." Saphron said realizing Jaune had ingored her.

"That's not true." Blake said trying to play peacekeeper.

"Really? Cuz it sure does sound like it. And what can you say, you haven't lost a teammate." Nora said showing anger in her tone.

Blake wanted to speak up, but Ruby stopped her.

"If Salem can't be killed, then how are we supposed to win this?" Ren asked with venom under his tone.

Everyone remains silent.

"Wow... Great plan everyone!" Jaune snarked.

"Look, none of this is great, we know. But your scarasm isn't helping." Oscar said stressing out.

"Are we sure about that?" Jaune said hostily looking over at Oscar. "He's in your head, isn't he? Doesn't that mean you'd know all of this already."

"He didn't know any of this!" Weiss said getting in between them.

Jaune shoved Weiss aside before grabbing Oscar shoving him against the wall.

"How much longer can we even trust him?!" Jaune said as Oscar scowled.

"Seriously! Is punching me going to solve this?!" Oscar said fed up.

"Jaune!" Yang yelled wanting to break it up.

"Funny that just a few moments ago, you were wanting to punch him along with Qrow." Blake said icily.

"Jaune, let him-" Saphron said only for Jaune to cut her off saying, "How do we even know it's really him?! What if we have been talking to that liar this whole time?!"

Oscar had enough of this and willingly took a mental step back for Ozpin to step in.

"Because if I had, would I tolerate any of your antics, Arc? Your transcripts don't implore you to think you were worth anything." Ozpin said grabbing Jaune's wrist.

He twisted before whirling Jaune around before slamming his face into the wall before punting him down the stairs to tumble down.

"Jaune, I figured by now you'd read between the lines and see the big picture. But I suppose you're still wallowing in despair. You blame me for Pyrrha's death and while I messed up. My biggest mistake was entrusting you to help me guard her." Ozpin said darkly and coldly.

"Back off of our leader, Oz! I'm sure he…" Nora said only for Ozpin to cut in, "Went out like one move despite having a semblance that could make the strongest man on the planet. But no, it's wasted on you. I've seen your grades and you'd think a man who was smart enough to fool mostly everyone with fake transcripts would gain a bit of pragtism."

The words died in Nora's mouth and Jaune got his feet.

"But I guess hoping you'd be like Ruby was a pipe dream." Ozpin said glaring at him. "But then again, Yang would know a thing or two of actually lying and keeping secrets."

"What are you talking about?" Yang said defensively.

"The Spring Maiden. You never did say what become of you or who even is she?" Ozpin said turning his full attention. "We asked you and you dodged the question."

Yang was silent and Ozpin had sour look.

"If Cinder got the Spring Maiden's power, you would have spoken. To which, I have to assume that you thought it was a bright idea to NOT tell us that Raven either has or is the Spring Maiden. To which I ask, what possessed you not to bring that up?" Ozpin said with anger seething as everyone was looking at her.

"I…Raven mentioned for me not to tr…" Yang said only for Ozpin, "Raven's a cowardly snake who's too lazy to even bother to try to keep the stalemate that's keeping you all breathing. I had hoped having your head up your arse would have skipped a generation."

Qrow spoke up, but Ozpin stormed out slamming the door behind him leaving the team to deal with this mess. But not before coming back, taking the relic and leaving through the door.

"So, Jaune. About that wall…" Saphron said crossing her arms.

"Not now, sis." Jaune whined.

"Yes, now." Terra said holding Adrian.

V6E8 – "How to Get a Ship Out to Atlas" – [Sequel to Hard Lessons]

"I thought I told you no." Cordovin said glaring at Ozcar who had shown up.

"And that was before you let us explain that we were working with Ironwood to deliver and secure this to Atlas." Ozpin said seriously holding the Relic. "Maybe the entrouage should have informed you that it's a magnet for Grimm."

Cordovin paused before Ozpin explained that if it stayed unsecured for too long, it would attract bigger and stronger Grimm.

"And if I recall. Argus is infamous for the Leviathin within it's waters. Do you want to held accountable for a body count because of your own ignorance." Ozpin said darkly as the Relic growed.

Cordovin ran over looking out into the waters nearby and saw a dark fin before stumbing back to Ozcar.

"Who the hell are you?" Cordovin demanded.

"Leading a secret cell of Vale Secret Service." Ozpin said as he spun his cover story.

He had her eating every word and she frantically called for an airship to be arranged for Oscar and his entrouage.

"I am so sorry for giving you the hassle. Is there anything I could do to ensure you won't tell Ironwood of this?" Cordovin said nervously.

Ozpin did not have any requests, but Oscar did.

[Later on, after Oscar gets his new clothes and some team agnsting]

The teams along with Maria and Qrow were shocked that not only did Cordovin come to present them a ship to go to Atlas. Maria had her jaw on the ground as she was given a big break of cashew from Cordovin with a salute. As they flew for Atlas, Oscar saw in the pilot's seat smug.

"Ok, what did you say to them?" Qrow asked.

"The truth. Once I told them that the relic attracts Grimm, they decided it was in their best interests to let us get it secured." Ozpin said cryptically before letting Oscar take control to say, "What he said."

"Well, I guess I owe you an…" Qrow said only for Oscar to hiss for him to keep it. "This is going to be a long flight."

"Cashews, anyone?" Maria said before snickering.

Adam watched them with complete indignation. His revenge was just denied, and they were off to Atlas. Adam could not follow unless he tried to hijack an airship which he could not just do in broad daylight. He could only snarl.

[And so, Adam doesn't die and Volume 6 ends there.]

(A/N: Volume 6 was easy to milk out issues I had with it. I could have written a bit on the Adam fight, but I decided it would be easy to write it so it can't happen. Ozpin really shouldn't have left them to their own devices and Yang's stinking of hypocrisy.)
