Chp. 5: Return to Beacon
Alleyway
May 5, 2020
Two days have passed and it is now morning and Teams GRMA and CFDT were all gathered at the alleyway where Team GRMA first met Teams RWBY and JNPR. Everyone was now wearing new outfits that Coco had bought them back in Vale.
Jacob is wearing a pair of black boots, light blue jeans, and a red shirt with his new emblem, a dagger with a pair of wings, on his chest. He also wore some armor on his shoulders and knees. Ricky now wears a pair of black shoes, dark blue jeans, and a sleeveless green shirt with his new emblem, a light blue bird, on his back. He also has a black pouch on his left hip.
Allen wears a pair of brown boots, dark blue pants, and black and white plaid buttoned t-shirt and a white undershirt. He has a shotgun holster on his back, carrying Daburushokkā. And on the holster is his new emblem of a white triple pointer star with a spot on each point.
Kelly wears a pair of red shoes, a light blue sleeve shirt, a green knee high skirt with her new emblem, an upside down triangle with a sword planted on top of it, on the left side of her skirt. She also has silver bracelets on her wrists. She still retains her ponytail.
Britney now has a pair of black calf high boots and a black crop top with her new emblem, a red peace sign with two katanas crossed underneath it, on her chest. She has a gun holster on the side of her hip, housing Geminos. She still retains her leggings and short shorts.
Rebecca now wears light grey buckle boots, black short shorts with two belts, and a light blue shirt with one sleeve on her right arm with her new emblem, a black human skull with a flower in its teeth, on her sleeved arm.
Kendra wears a pair of black shoes with knee high white socks, a pair of grey camo shorts, and a yellow t-shirt. She has an armored pad on her left shoulder with an emblem of a pair of crossed black feathers.
Robert's new outfit consists of a pair of dark green shoes, black jeans, a dark green t-shirt with his new emblem, a pair of blue eagle wings, on the left side of his chest, and a black buttoned sweatshirt over him that was buttoned on top. He also has a pair of brown fingerless gloves.
"Coco sure did pick out nice clothes for us," Ricky said.
"Yeah, it makes us stand out more on Remnant" Allen said.
"I feel guilty for sneaking out after my dad said no and that Jacob is a bad influence," Britney said.
"Don't worry, I'm sure he won't be mad at you," Rebecca said.
"Okay, before we go, do you have your scrolls?" Jacob asked.
"Yes," everyone answered.
"Everything that we all need?" he asked.
"Yes," everyone answered again.
"And most importantly, is anyone sick?" Jacob asked.
"Nope," Kelly answered.
"Uh-uh," Rebecca said.
"I double checked before leaving," Allen replied.
"I'm good," Robert said.
"No fever," Kendra said.
"I feel fine," said Britney.
"I feel good," Ricky said.
"In that case, let's get going," Jacob said.
Jacob pulls out the pouch of Dust crystals as he then pulls one of the crystals out. He drops it on the ground and nods to Britney. Britney pulls out one of her pistols and aims it at the crystal, then shoots it. A bright light engulfed the Earth teams and as the light died away they were all gone.
Remnant
Beacon Academy, Vale
Dust Lab
The Lab was completely empty and nobody was inside. Suddenly, a bright light flashed in the middle of the lab. When the light died away, Team GRMA and Team CFDT stood in the middle of the room. Everyone looks around themselves for a moment before facing each other.
"Yay! We're back!" Kelly exclaimed.
"It's great to be back here again," Kendra said.
"Hey guys, check this out," Ricky said, standing next to a window.
Everyone gathered at the window and looked out the window. They all saw some airships land on the cliffside landing docks and students starting to board off the airships.
"I guess another school year has started for the academies today," Allen said.
"So what do we do now?" Rebecca asked.
"I'd say find Professor Ozpin. I'm sure he can squeeze us back into Beacon," Britney said.
"Britney's right. I'm sure Professor Ozpin can understand why we came back," Jacob said."Or at the very least a teacher."
"Let's move then," Britney said. Teams GRMA and Team CFDT then walked out the door and into the hallway, starting their search for the headmaster.
Main Avenue
Meanwhile down in the Main Avenue, students are boarding off the airships and are making their way to the amphitheater. Ruby, Blake, and Yang are currently looking for Weiss and Team JNPR.
"I sure do miss Beacon," Yang said.
"It wouldn't be standing if it wasn't for the others back on Earth," Blake said.
"I just wish they could have shown up sooner," Ruby said.
"Don't worry, Ruby. I'm sure they will show up one way or another," Yang said.
"Look there's Weiss," Blake said, pointing out.
They all saw Weiss as she watched her luggage getting carried up to the academy by two Atlesian knights in tuxes.
"Weiss!" Ruby called out running towards her.
Ruby hugs Weiss from behind and lifts her up a few inches off the ground.
"Ruby, put me down!" Weiss yelled, flailing her legs.
"Oh, sorry," Ruby sheepishly said as she put Weiss down.
Blake and Yang ran up to Ruby and Weiss.
"Hey there, Weiss," Yang said.
"Guys!" a voice called.
The girls all turn to see Team JNPR walking towards them.
"Hey, guys," Ruby said.
"Hello, fellow second year students!" Nora exclaimed.
"How are you guys holding up?" Jaune asked.
"Other than people bothering us over the fact we fought against the Cinder and the White Fang alongside Teams GRMA and CFDT and the 'unknown military', we're good," Blake answered.
"You guys, too?" Pyrrha asked.
"At least you guys have it easy," Weiss said. "My father tried to boast about my involvement with defending Beacon. He even told me he wants to have the Schnee Dust Company host a party that includes all of you and our friends back on Earth, just to boost his image."
"Somehow that doesn't surprise me," Blake said.
"Captain Gordan is already keeping an eye on him, thanks to my mom's cameras. That way, they will find a reason to have him arrested," Weiss said.
"Hey look! It's Team RWBY and Team JNPR!" a student called out.
The two teams noticed that the students around them were running towards them.
"We should start running," Ren said.
Teams RWBY and JNPR started running from the crowd of students that were chasing them.
Headmaster's Office
Meanwhile at the headmaster's office, Ozpin and Glynda were getting ready to leave to address the students at the amphitheater.
"It's almost time to meet up with the first year students," Glynda said.
"Yes, hopefully things will go smoother this year," Ozpin said.
They both here a chirping beep sound and turned to see a hollow-message on his desk that read 'Access Requested' on it.
"Come in," Ozpin said.
The elevator doors open to reveal Teams GRMA and CFDT as they then approach Ozpin and Glynda.
"Mr. Gordon?" Ozpin asked.
"Hey there, Professor," Jacob said.
"Why are you all here? You should be back on Earth in quarantine," Glynda said, glaring at the Terrans.
"We couldn't just stay back at home and not help you out with your Salem problem," Ricky said.
"That and due to the quarantine, we pretty much can't do anything," Allen said.
"We can't go back to school because they're all shut down," Robert said.
"It's now freaking hard to get a job," Ricky added.
"And special events have been canceled," Kelly listed.
"But on the plus side we have been sparring more often and Ricky, Kelly, and I discovered our semblances," Britney said.
"So anyway, we thought that coming here was better than doing nothing," Kendra said.
"How did you even get here?" Ozpin asked. "Keaton told me that you weren't coming."
"Somebody snuck some teleporting Dust crystals in Jacob's bag before we left Beacon," Britney said.
"I would have to guess that someone from Team RWBY or Team JNPR would be behind that," Ozpin said.
"Do you have any idea how much trouble you are all in? Glynda asked, still keeping her glare on the Earth teams.
"Now Glynda, I'm sure they all mean well and they simply wish for something to do," Ozpin said. "Beside, we could use some extra hands."
"So does that mean we can stay?" Kelly asked.
"Yes, but I must also notify Keaton about this," Ozpin said.
"I bet he's gonna be pissed when he hears about this," Jacob said.
"Now so far only three of you have unlocked your semblance, do you mind telling me about them," Ozpin asked.
