Chapter 4

It was the next day and Ruby and her team mate were walking through the halls when they stopped and gasped at seeing at the Academy docks the two ship were right above dropping more of those planes as different coloured armoured soldiers came walking out all boosting different types of weapons but their armour design is the same with a wolf helmet "wow look at those" Weiss said pointing to one huge plane unloading a vehicle of some kind it was a tracked box body with a round head with a long tube just then they heard the Empress.

"soldiers of the wolf empire I have brought you here to see to the security of this festival to keep the public safe while this is happening but I will make a few thing clear under no circumstances you will interfere with these people daily way of life unless they seem trouble you may help them I have allowed them to ask questions about us but if they ask anything about our military then do not answer it our military secret must be keep now your Sergeant's will give you all your orders" they heard her finished saying but the whole soldiers then shouted out "long live the empire, long live our empress, long live our almighty she-wolf!".

The team were astonished by what they saw "Wow those weapon they had!" Ruby said excited eyeing up all those different types of weapons they had.

"now, now Ruby" a male voice called out making the whole team jumped in surprised seeing it was Ebony and Crimson "remember we can't tell you" he said walking to them seeing his mother.

"oh um sorry we weren't spying" Yang said holding up her hand.

"don't worry your self we don't mind you seeing this" Crimson said to them calming them down.

"wait where your chain?" Ruby asked noticing she didn't had it on her.

"well I don't carry it all the time" she said then looking at her clock "come on it lunch time" she said walking with the other following.

...

In Ozpin office Ironwood had just arrived seeing those two other ships he was chatting away with Ozpin until he saw the woman from the news he got up to walk to her "ah you must...!" he was cut off by two of her guards long axe blocking him and the thin blades just near his neck.

"guards step down" she said seeing them stepping away "sorry they can be overprotective of me" she said holding out her hand.

As he taken it "no I can understand I am sorry for that" he shaken hers "so your the empire I have heard of please allow me I am general Ironwood I am head of Atlas Academy and the Atlas military" he said to her.

"Empress Cerise ruler of the Wolf Empire" she said to him.

"I couldn't but think our two military could help each other out by sharing" he said as he was impressed by those two ship as they dwarf his own ships by a long shot.

She was thinking it over "I am sorry but I can't not at this time but hopefully in the future" she said "please understand that I must first trust you" she then looking to Ozpin "Ozpin I have my troops on the ground and as promised they will protect the festival" she said then turning away "General Ironwood it was nice to see you" she smiled then walking away.

...

Later that day Weiss was walking around the school until she saw the Empress sitting on a chair at a table with two cups "ah Weiss wasn't it?" Cerise asked her.

"yes your Empress" Weiss said to her as she thought it was best to be respectful to her.

"oh don't be like that your not apart of my empire come sit with me" she pointed to the other chair, she saw she was hesitant until it clicked into her "oh don't worry my guards won't attack" she reassured her.

Once Weiss was sitting with a cup of tea "so tell me where are you from?" she asked seeing her placing the cup down and started to explain where she came from.

...

After a while Weiss finished off she then went to take a drink "nice story young one I must say it must have been hard to leave home to come here" she said pouring out another.

"it was" Weiss said then Looking at the watch "I am sorry but I have to go" she said.

"no problem let make this a thing same time tomorrow?" she asked seeing her nodding then rushing off "shame still need more time" she saw her tea was cold then used her glyph to reheat it.

...

Ebony and Crimson was in the library watching the group battling over a game board "do you understand this game?!" Crimson asked curiously.

"I am afraid not dear sister of mine" he said seeing Weiss crying along with Ruby "now are you nearly done sister?" he asked seeing his sister pulling out a small device.

"yes I got every single comic book download for us to read" she said as they both smiled then walking away.

...

Later that night both of them where sitting outside under the night moon reading those comic they had downloaded earlier until they overheard team Rwby plan to take down an criminal "seems they think they can do this" Ebony said reading a book.

"well good on them" his sister replied back while reading her book.

...

It was the next day and Team Rwby was about to go to the dock for a ship until they were stopped by Ebony and Crimson they saw her swinging her chain around "what are you two doing here?" Ruby asked them both.

"well last night we heard what you all are planning so we want to help" Ebony said to them.

"by how!?" Weiss asked curiously.

"simple we can provide support to you all" Crimson said smiling.

"what kind of support" Blake asked them.

"simple" Ebony said just before whistling out loud they all looked around to only see a small two wing thing it was the same size as a football with two blue dots two small engines that didn't make any noise.

"what that?!" Weiss shouted in surprised way.

"say hello to IGB" Crimson said looking at them as they all had that look on their face saying we have no idea what that means look she rolled her eyes "IGB means Information Gathering Bot he can get into any computer to get information and anything that claims to be impossible to hack he can hack them we can give you him but we don't tell my mother or we all face her wrath" she said seeing them nodding quickly.

"good now go and do what ever you were doing" Ebony said watching them rush off "you know our mother is going to find out right" he said.

"yes brother I know but how many times have we been in trouble with our mother" she smiled to him "come on let's finish our reading before we need to pray then bed" she said the walking off.

...

Later that night they both were in their room until the saw IGB was at their window as they let it in "well done so how did they fight?" Crimson and Ebony asked seeing it pulling out a screen showing RWBY fighting a huge robot "their not bad works well together" Crimson said seeing them fight.

"well don't worry now I am off to bed" Ebony said getting into bed for the night.

...

A few days later Ebony and Crimson were allowed to watch some of the class they were in Miss Goodwitch class watching Pyrrha fighting a boy named Mercury but it was a short one at that "sis her semblance is polarity" Ebony said to her seeing her smile.

Crimson raised her hand "may I fight Pyrrha?" she asked the teacher.

"I am sorry but that was the last match" she said facing her "but however seeing as no one knows how you fight I sure it won't be a bother" she said making Crimson smiled.

"good luck sis!" Ebony shouted out to her.

...

Crimson was standing with her chain ready with Pyrrha at the other end smiling to her when they heard the bell Crimson swung her chain to get Pyrrha feet making her jump in the air but Pyrrha gasp when she felt a sudden pull on one of her legs she quickly look seeing the chain wrapped around her left leg "how" Pyrrha thought in her mind.

Crimson then pulls it down making Pyrrha crash into the floor she then pulls her chain back to her letting Pyrrha up but dodge a shield coming towards her she then see a spear coming to her making her jump out the way Crimson then swings her chain to Pyrrha.

Pyrrha hold out her hand to use her semblance but gasped again seeing it isn't working "WHAT!" she mentality said then sees the chain wrapped around her arm she looks to Crimson seeing her about to pull it again but Pyrrha then pulls making her stubble a little bit she felt the chain loosens and rushes to her weapons.

When she grabbed them she looks to Crimson thinking to herself "how do I do this I can't use my semblance for some reason WAIT!" she screamed to herself as she realised something "she hasn't came directly to attack me she been keeping her distance" with a new determination in her she charges straight for her dodging each strike from her chain she was closing in until she felt something hitting her in the side of her stomach forcing her to slide along the ground as she looks up just as the whistle blew to end the match.

Pyrrha then saw a hand in front of her she take the hand helping her up seeing it was Crimson "well you fought well against me I am surprised by how you found out that I keep my fight at a distance but that for another time" she smiled to her.

"thank you but I must admit that chain of your is impressive but what I want to know how I couldn't use my semblance?" she asked holding her side where the chain impact on her.

"ah yes you see it my own semblance it cut out others semblance giving me a better advantage on my opponents in battle come let get you healed up" she said helping Pyrrha.

...

They all went to the locker room Jaune helped Pyrrha while everyone else watched Crimson keeling down on both knees then holding her two hand together with her head bowed down "what is she doing?" Ruby asked.

"in our empire before and after every battle be it war or friendly match we pray to our almighty she-wolf for forgiveness so that our soul remains pure for us to enter what we call the promise land" he said seeing his sister getting up walking to them.

"oh what this promise land about?" Nora asked with excitement and enthusiasm.

"the promise land is a place where one goes to, to live a life of eternity in peace with no war but they must be pure no taint allowed that why we pray for forgiveness to keep our hearts pure" Crimson said to them all seeing them all understanding it now.

"wow that cool" Ruby said feeling enthusiastic about that.

"and who is this almighty she-wolf you spoke of?" Pyrrha asked while Jaune was helping her.

"well from what we know she-wolf was the first wolf ever to be born she appeared to a lonely lady who wanted to create a place were equality and freedom along with other right for all living things to live in peace and harmony the lady asked the she-wolf for guidance and she did, she guides the lady to a huge land that was only habitat by wolfs but they never attacked eventually others showed up and agreed that this new land would be called the Wolf Empire and the lady who was guided by the she-wolf would be the empress of this new land that would help the misfortunes and the mistreat people of this world where they can come for safety a better home be it humans or Faunus" he said to them seeing their eyes light up in excitement with this knowledge.

"come on let get to class now" Weiss said checking the time then leading off with the others behind

...

The day went by and now it was night time both sister and brother were in their room when their mother came in "mother" they both said at the same time.

"my children how has things been?" she asked sitting down on a chair.

"not bad we have been learning some of our opponents today" Crescent said to her while drying her hair.

"yes I heard that well that good news I have made some progress with Weiss we talked about family and she mentioned there was one side they don't talk about even though she has asked her mother about it but never got the answer!" she said in a sad way.

"shame!" Ebony said to her shaking his head.

"yes but I will tell her after this dance tomorrow" Cerise said pouring some wine out for herself.

"yes... about that..." both of her children looked at each other "we... were thinking... do we have to... go!?" Crescent asked carefully on that one.

"yes you both have to and remember to wear formal clothes only no casual ones" she said getting up.

"fine we will" they said in defeat seeing her leaving their room as they both thought it was best to go to bed for the night.
