Chp. 13: New Plans
Beacon Academy, Vale
Torchwick's Lecture Hall
May 15, 2020
For the next few days, Teams RWBY, JNPR, GRMA, and CFDT are all continuing their classes as Professor Ozpin and Captain Gordan discuss and plan their next moves. Right now, Teams RWBY, JNPR, GRMA, CFDT, and CFVY are all in class as Roman was teaching with Neo on his side.
"And that is how you prevent a victim from getting raped while the attacker is singing," Roman said.
The class all had disguised and weirded out expressions at what Roman was teaching them.
"Welp, that's twenty minutes of my life I'll never get back," Yang said.
"This sort of sounds similar to a scene in the movie, Clockwork Orange," Robert said.
"What's that?" Roman asked.
"It's an Earth movie and I think you may like it," Ricky said.
The door opens and walking in is Professor Ozpin, General Ironwood, Keaton, and Glynda.
"Good morning, students," Ozpin said, then sipping his mug.
"Good morning, Professor," the class replied.
"What's up?" Coco asked.
"We all came in here to discuss what approaches to take if we are to beat Salem," Ironwood said.
"But first, Qrow has brought someone here," Glynda said.
Qrow then walks in and following him inside is Oscar.
"Um... hi," Oscar said, giving a nervous wave.
"Hey, Oscar," Jacob said.
"Cute boy Oz!" Nora exclaimed, pointing at Oscar.
"Nice to meet you," Allen said.
"Hello, Oscar," Yatsuhashi said.
"It wasn't easy convincing him and his aunt that he needs to come here, but I managed to get him here," Qrow said.
"I'm still trying to process this whole thing. I mean I'm a soon to be reincarnation, there's a war going on that the whole world doesn't know about, and there are people from another world that saw the future of our world. This is so much to take in," Oscar said.
"Welcome to our world," Blake said.
"Anyway, this is what we discussed for the past few days," Keaton said. "Other than recruiting students from the other academies, we have four separate primary goals."
"Dealing with the Crown in Vacuo," Glynda said.
"Finding my sister and bringing her in," Qrow said.
"Dealing with the White Fang," Ozpin said.
"And having Professor Lionheart convicted," Ironwood said.
"Now, after some discussion, we talked and decided that these four objectives cannot be dealt with one at a time. So to deal with all these objectives, you all have to split up into groups to handle this," Keaton said. "And if you're wondering about Merlot, Be on the lookout for him as well."
"Now Ms. Belladonna, we know that your parents are in Menagerie and that your father was the original founder of the White Fang, right?" Ozpin asked.
"Yes," Blake answered.
"You're going to have to go to Menagerie and provide protection since it is definite that Adam will want you parents dead once he takes leadership of the entirety of the White Fang after killing Sienna Khan," Keaton explained.
"And if you think you are going alone, think again. Private Simon and three others of your choice must come with you," Glynda said.
"Oooo, you just got told, kitty cat," Roman said with a smirk as Blake glared at him.
"So who do you want to go with you?" Ironwood asked.
Blake turned to the class for a moment and turned back to Ozpin's circle and the marine.
"I'll take Yang, Rebecca, and Allen," Blake said.
"Are you sure?" Keaton asked.
"Yes," Blake answered.
"Okay, when you get there, Steel is going to try to get in contact with the British military who's stationed in the desert terrains of Menagerie and see if they can help," Keaton said.
"Okay," Blake said.
"Next is that we need a group to go into Mistral to find Raven and bring her in while gathering some evidence so we can get permission from the Mistral council to have an arrest warrant on Professor Lionheart," Ironwood explained.
"So Team JNPR will be going to Haven Academy alongside Ruby Rose, Jacob Gordon, Britney Connor, and Robert Franklin along with Qrow and Sergeat Barker," Ozpin said.
"What about the huntsmen and the students that Professor Lionheart has on? He will give out their information to Salem so that Tyrian and Hazel will come and kill them. What about that?" Pyrrha asked.
"The Japanese military will provide protection for them and as an added measure, we told a majority of the huntsmen in Mistral to cut all ties with Haven's Headmaster," Keaton explained.
"And what about Maria?" Ruby asked.
"The militaries are still looking for her and if we got time, I'll help look for her, kiddo," Qrow explained.
"Well that solves those problem," Jacob said.
"Now we get to Vacuo. Team CFVY, Kelly McFoley, Kendra Tanner, Weiss Schnee, and Richard Hugo will report to Shade Academy first, then go to Feldspar to find Carmine Esclados and Bertilak Celadon, and bring them in for questioning, while you safely get Edward Caspian and his grandson, August to Oscuro Academy," Glynda explained.
"The French military will provide aid to the city of Vacuo and be on the lookout for members of the Crown and those they kidnapped and Sergeant Rogers will be joining you," Keaton added.
"Well, we may be going into Vacuo like in the novels, but at least we won't go alone," Velvet said.
"Come on Velvet, I bet it will be fun," Fox said.
Suddenly, Weiss' scroll rings, getting everyone's attention. Weiss pulls out her scroll and looks into it then sighs as she shooks her head.
"Who is that?" Allen asked.
"It's my father," Weiss groaned.
"What does that asshole want?" Robert asked.
"Answer it," Ironwood ordered.
Weiss answers her scroll and places it in her ear.
"Hello... they've been b... I know but... I'll try... Okay," Weiss said then hung up. "That... that..."
"Weiss what did Jacques want?" Ruby asked.
"My father still wants me to have you all to come to a party he's hosting," Weiss answered, gesturing to her teammates, Team JNPR, Team GRMA, and Team CFDT.
"Why us?" Rebecca asked.
"He wants you to come just to boost his image basically," Weiss answered. "However since I told him you were busy, he will take at least any two out of all of you."
"Then I guess we'll have to send you back to Atlas, Weiss. But we can only send one person there, so your father will have to suck it up," Keaton said.
"My father won't take no for an answer and he'll do anything to get what he wants," Weiss said.
"Let him try. We got cameras watching him," Ironwood said.
"Wait, I got an idea that I think can help," Jacob said.
Jacob walks down and up to Neo.
"Hey Neo, how would you like a reduction in your community service?" Jacob asked as Neo crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow.
"Jacob, what are you doing? You know only we can talk about her sentencing" Keaton said.
"Hear me out on this, Keaton," Jacob said to his older brother before turning back to Neo. "How would you like to go with Weiss to her father's party and pretend to be one of us?"
"Oh, I get it now. Neopoliton if you do this, you will get a three month reduse on your community service," Ozpin said.
Neo stood in place thinking about then looked towards Roman.
"Neo, I think you should do this. You have a better chance than I do," Roman said.
Neo turns to Ozpin and gives him a nod.
"Okay, now who wants to volunteer to go with Weiss and Neo?" Glynda asked.
"I'll go," Ricky said, raising his hand.
"Then It's settled, tomorrow you all depart on your assignments while we find the qualified teams from each academy to recruit for the organization," Ozpin said.
Earth
Somewhere in the United States
Unknown Facility
Meanwhile back on Earth in a top secret facility, somewhere in the United States, a group of doctors are analyzing a young woman in a hospital gown covered in tubes and wires still in a coma. That woman is the previous Fall Maiden, Amber.
"She's still in stable condition," a doctor said.
"Like usual," another doctor said, writing on his clipboard.
"When do you think she'll wake up?" a third doctor asked.
"That all depends on her," answered the first doctor.
"I can't help but feel sorry for going through all this," the third doctor said.
Suddenly, the doctors heard a slight groan. They all turn to see Amber giving out slight movements as she slowly starts to open her eyes.
"She's waking up," the second doctor said.
"I go call the White House," the third doctor said as he rushed towards the phone.
"W...Where... a-am... I...?" Amber quietly groaned.
