Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Wolf and Reaper. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.
(Vale, isolated island.)
Azul parried the blade of one of the Androids before he scored a shallow slash on it.
"These guys are a lot tougher than they look!" Azul yelled before he slid through the mech's legs and then slashed the droid on the leg.
He was sent flying back when the android slammed the shaft of his glaive into his chest.
"Yeah, but they're not unstoppable!" Ruby shouted back before she decapitated a Beowolf and slid backward.
He sighed and then dodged an Android's swing before he stabbed it, he emptied the magazine of his weapon into the machine which sputtered and collapsed into the sand.
Azul was tackled to the ground by a Beowolf. Azul reached for his weapon as the snarling Grimm went to bite him before a bullet blew off part of its head.
"Thanks, Rubes!" Azul yelled, kicking the body off him, he looked around and then saw his sword in the sand. He staggered over to it and grabbed it.
Ruby killed her last enemy: A Beowolf, by bisecting it as she shot it in the head while flipping over it.
Azul ejected the magazine in his weapon. He tossed it into the sand and inserted a fresh one. He turned to Ruby while he made sure his weapon was ready and put it into its holster.
"Ok… So, we're done here, right?" Azul asked, panting as he tried to catch his breath.
Ruby and Azul looked around the beach to see if anything still lived. Azul crossed his arms and cracked his back and neck.
"I think we're done here…" Ruby said, Azul brushed off his cloak and sighed in amusement before he turned to Ruby.
He saw nothing on the beach but junk and smoke from the dead Grimm…. And bullets all over the sand.
"Ok, Rubes… Now what?" Azul asked before he pulled his hood down and his scarf away from his face.
"Hmm…" Ruby said before her scroll rang, Azul's did as well and both team leaders pulled their Scrolls off their belts.
Azul was greeted by Ozpin's face and Ruby saw Glynda's face. Both team leaders turned to look at them.
"Mr. Violet, we've seen a large amount of activity on the docks near you… We believe it might be Merlot's activity." Azul heard and he cocked his head to the side and he blinked.
"And we also believe these transports are being moved to a private island, Ms. Rose… We want you to investigate these docks but not engage them…" Glynda stated before both scrolls blinked out.
Azul and Ruby shared looks and frowned before both looked at a Bullhead that flew over her head and Azul turned to Ruby.
"I think we might have to do more than spy on Merlot… I'm going to look around… Vermillion, you guys look around and then keep an eye on things…." Azul ordered before he turned to Ruby.
Azul smiled and patted her on the head and chuckled in amusement.
"I'll see what's up ahead and come back… If Merlot doesn't know we're here, he does now… Staying in one group isn't the best option… We can cover more ground if we split up…" Azul stated before he rushed into the forest.
Ruby turned to Yang who rolled her eyes and crossed her arms.
"What?" Ruby asked, Yang just smirked.
(With Azul)
Azul continued to rush through the forest, he flipped over a branch and then slid down a hill.
Azul wondered what else Merlot had for them considering he had already thrown a small army at them… Still, they had handled it.
But Merlot was not a man willing to give up, and mutating Grimm? Azul shuddered to wonder what else Merlot would be able to come up with a twisted mind.
"Merlot, what is wrong with you?" Azul asked, he perched on a branch, and he looked down.
He saw a group of Androids loading a Bullhead before it flew into the air and vanished.
"Seriously, this guy was dead! Where did he get an army like this?" Azul whispered before he looked around and saw something in the water.
"A water Grimm?" Azul asked and he looked around and then saw a group of the mutated Grimm… Beowolves being packed into a crate which as getting loaded into the Bullhead.
Azul frowned; they were shipping Grimm out? Why Merlot have to be insane to think he could ship Grimm or even control them.
Then again, Azul guessed the man was probably already insane if he had made Mutated Grimm. He pulled out his scroll and took a few photos.
He typed them to Ruby before he backflipped into the forest and raced back towards where Ruby and the others were.
Little did he know the Androids had seen him and reported him to Merlot…. It was going to be a wild ride when they came back.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter is done! I want to point out this story might be going on hold… These updates will be infrequent. Even if Ruby is one of my favorite characters in the cast, I do wish to focus on the other RWBY stories. The next chapter will be in 2 weeks or so and will show Ruby and Azul talking and planning. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
