Krayix watched as students from different academies arrived at beacon. "Krayix, what are you doing?" a voice asked. Turning, the human toa saw Weiss and Ruby. "I got feeling that some of these students are fakers." Krayix said. The toa of ice and matter in-training shared a worried glance before Weiss noticed someone. "That's my sister and general ironwood. Why are they here?" she pondered. "Atlas has offered their services for security during the Vytal festival." The trio turned to see Ozpin.
"I noticed Weiss' sister wields a saber." Krayix said. "Her name's winter." The Schnee heir said. Krayix looked at Ozpin with an expression that the headmaster deciphered immediately. "Go ahead." The human toa grinned while Weiss facepalmed. Krayix unsheathed a saber of his own shocking Ruby. "Winter Schnee." Krayix called out gaining the elder Schnee's attention. "Think fast." The toa said before vanishing from view. Winter drew her blade just in time to block Krayix's swing entering a deadlock.

"Who are you?" Winter demanded. "Your sister's teammate and mentor" Krayix said before leaping back. "I'm impressed by your reaction time. Now then en garde." Ironwood frowned turning to Ozpin. "Is that a student of beacon?" he asked. "Yes." The headmaster said as Krayix barraged Winter with fast pace swings. "I demand that…" the general began. "he's testing her fighting form James. It's more of a spar than an actual fight." Ozpin said noticing some robotic soldiers and sighed. "his opinion of you won't be pleasant." Ironwood looked at his longtime friend
"What do you mean?" he asked. "Krayix has a grudge against robotic enforcers." Weiss said as her and Ruby's eyes darted back and forth keeping up with Krayix's movements. James took notice and saw "Krayix" disappear and reappear while his second in command was continuing to block unable to counterattack.
"Hey ruby," Weiss said. "Yeah?" the scarlet reaper asked. "think your uncle could be a match for Blake's boyfriend?" Ruby chuckled as Winter was finally bested and fell to the ground. "Nope, but I'd like to see him try." Winter placed a hand on her head as a shadow was cast over her.
"I'm impressed by your reaction time." Krayix said offering a hand which winter took. "Form's perfect, but when you swing it's a bit off-balance." Winter's eyes widened. "You were testing me?" she asked as Krayix nodded. "I'm impressed by your speed think you could give me some lessons." Winter said batting her eyes. Krayix caught on to what she was doing. "I'd happily help you improve your form. However, I'm already dating someone." Winter's eyes widened. He already had a girlfriend!?
"I didn't realize you were already with someone." She said bowing. "I'm sorry." Krayix smiled. "It's ok you didn't… know." The human toa snaped his head to the left and saw three people approach. "You must be Krayix. I'm Cinder Fall. This is Mercury Black and emerald. We're from Haven" The woman with orange eyes said holding out a hand. Krayix narrowed his eyes as he sensed their energy levels.
"Walk carefully servants of shadow. We'll be watching you." The human toa said sternly in matoran. "Ruby, what'd Krayix tell them?" Weiss asked. Ruby glanced at Ozpin and Ironwood before whispering in the ice queen's ear. "walk carefully servants of shadow. We'll be watching you." The toa parted from the three whom gained mildly shocked expressions. "Girls, get the others." Krayix said heading to the library.
"So, you think one of the teams from Haven is fake." Blake said. Krayix nodded. "I believe the one with orange eyes is the alpha and the other two are the eyes and ears." He said cryptically. This got every Toa in-training's attention. They nodded knowing that the fake huntsman team could be listening.
"So, the pack is prowling amongst the sheep." Yang said shuffling a deck of cards. "Yes, but shrouded in darkness." Blake said setting a gameboard on the table. "and how do we hunt wolves amongst sheep? Neo nodded. "By playing at their own game luv." She said. "Well then let the games begin then." Jaune said
Meanwhile
"I'm impressed by Krayix's reaction time and speed Ozpin. Is he top of every class." Ironwood asked. "No, he isn't James. He's a recent inductee." Ozpin said. "Recent?" Before Ozpin could respond a man came into his office looking drunk. "Ah, Qrow so good to see you again." Winter said through clenched teeth. "good to see you too." The drunk said as the doors behind opened again revealing Krayix, team RWBY, Neo, Jaune, and Pyrrha. "Hey squirts." Qrow said, but to his surprise Yang and Ruby didn't respond.
"Professor Ozpin, we think that there may be imposters amongst the visiting students." Ruby said in a serious tone. "How can that be we screened every person." Ironwood said before a blade was against his jugular. "This doesn't concern you." Krayix said dangerously. "this is Toa business." Weiss said before giving her sister an apologetic look. Ozpin looked down in thought. "James could you, winter and Qrow wait in the auditorium." He asked.
"Qrow and Winter may stay. Seeing as how two of my group are related to the drunk and one is related to the general's second in command." Krayix said glancing at the general. Ironwood merely complied. "Neo, make sure he doesn't snoop." The human toa ordered. "Sure, thing luv." Neo said before she shattered. "So, who do you think is the fake team?" Ozpin asked. "Cinder Fall, Mercury, Black, and Emerald." Yang said. "Their aura is tainted." Ruby said.
"Tainted? What do you mean?" Qrow asked his niece. "Darkness surrounds them." Krayix said before muttering. "As it did Teridax." A hand grasped one of his. Turning, he saw Blake give him a reassuring smile. "Cinder's aura is severely tainted by shadows while her compatriots aren't as tainted." Ruby said. "What do you suggest we do?" Winter asked. "Let them think that their cover is intact. And when the time is right, the Toa Vale and I will insure their defeat." Krayix said darkly.
"Understood." Ozpin said. "You may leave." Krayix and the toa in-training left while Qrow and Winter glanced at each other thinking the same thing. 'what the hell just happened?'
