This will be the day we've waited f-OH CRAP! *CRASH* AH, OW!

*Technical Difficulties; please stand by*

*Take 2*

*Sigh* Okay, it's been a while since I did a chap for this but, here we are… Now, first let's read a review for old time's sake.

Chapter 8: From TheD-Rock900

I do hope that Pikachu is given a warm welcome from Ash. Plus learning that Pyrrha will not die? Loving this story more than ever. Just like in my story, she will not die. Keep up the good work mate.

Everyone loves that idea… except when they need to make a part for Pyrrha in volumes 4-5. Next we have someone who reviewed two chapters.

Chapter 5: From Spartan Hunter-001

Wow, only Nintendo game worlds? Why not other worlds not connected to Nintendo, except earth itself, since it technically is.

Okay, firstly Mobius is from Sonic owned by Sega. And secondly, the only world that's owned by Nintendo is Hyrule and it's three worlds. This was back then before I heard of any other worlds.

Chapter 8: From Spartan Hunter-001

If you are still working on this story, then you should have Brock, and Gary come into play. Brock should come in to heal Ash's and his Pokemon, and Gary because he would flip out(in a good way) over the Grimm and Faunus(not discriminating, in fact infatuated by them).

Okay, okay, I see what you're trying to do. I might put Brock and Gary in but no promises. Also, look up Vexed Viewer and check the reason why I talked about Faunus Discrimination in my Omake last chapter. I'll try to fix it and make Faunus discrimination a little bit bigger, because, if they're gonna talk about it so much, let's not just have racist people. Cause to be honest, seeing is believing and I'll try to see if I can make some more for you to see… or in this cause, reading it believing.

And speaking of Volumes 4-5, firstly I've heard some complaints about Blake's story in 4 and Volume 5 was trash. If you guys have any idea as to how I could fix these two volumes before I do them, I'm open for suggestions.

For starters, in Mistral, let's get rid of that racist sign on a restaurant's wall since Leo the headmaster is a Faunus. And Vexed Viewer says that people don't care about Oscar? Let's fix that, shall we? Characters being stupid for the sake of the plot? No need. Adam losing his touch? Yeah, I think that definitely needs fixing. Qrow being weaker than he should be?... well, actually that could just be his semblance.

Alright, enough about that, let's get to the chapter. Before we start, the chapter of Jaundence and Forever Fall already happened because I don't feel like doing those chapters so we're skipping ahead.

It was bright in the day, sun was shinning, balloons everywhere, decorations everywhere. Everyone was getting ready for the great and famous Vytal Festival and for the arrival of people from other kingdoms along the way and lots of people were getting excited. Teams RWBY and SHAD walked through the town as they saw a banner that said welcome to Vale which put smiles on… most of their faces.

"Ooh, nice." Derek says seeing the banner.

"The Vytal Festival! Oh, this is absolutely wonderful!" Weiss says excited.

"I don't think I've ever seen you smile this much Weiss. Kind of weirding me out." Ruby says uneasy.

"How could you not smile? A festival dedicated to the cultures of the world! There will be dances, parades, a tournament! Oh, the amount of planning and organization that goes into this event is simply breath taking." The ice-queen then goes on.

"*Sigh* She really knows how make anything annoying." Heather whispers into one of her teammate's ear.

"Quiet you." Weiss said after hearing what she said.

"It's boring to me." Yang whispers to Shard.

"I can still hear you!" The white-haired girl said annoyed.

"Easy, Weiss." Ash said putting a hand on her shoulder as she looked at him then away again.

As the teams were walking through the town, Ash noticed they were getting some looks as did his team leader. At first the boy was confused, but Shard knew why they were looking. He put his head down and his ears fell in annoyance as his tail lowered to nearly touching the ground. When his teammate saw this, he figured out what was going on.

*Boat horn*

"Remind me again why we're spending Friday afternoon visiting these dumb docks?" Derek asks as they arrive at said location.

"Ugh, they smell like fish." Ruby said pinching her nose.

"Well, I've heard that students visiting from Vacuo will be arriving by ship today. And as a representative of Beacon, I feel as though it is my solemn duty to welcome them to this fine kingdom." Weiss states before they continued on.

"She wants to spy on them, so she'll have the upper hand in the tournament." Blake then states as they stopped again.

"*Scoff* You can't prove that!" The white-haired girl then protests.

"Hey, no big deal. I mean, that's pretty much what Heather does an-GGH!" Derek was saying until Heather stomped on his foot and held her foot there.

"I was gonna welcome them to this kingdom as well, right DARK!" She then said with a fake smile before glaring at him.

"Uh-huh…" The grey-haired boy said in pain before she released his foot. "AH! OW! Damnit! OW!" He then yelled holding his foot in pain.

"That was just cruel." Shard says feeling bad for his teammate.

"C'mon, you believe me, right Ash?" Weiss then turned to her old friend.

"Um… Of course?" Ash tries to fake, but it didn't work as she looked at him. "Well, I've kind of been with you longer than anyone here. I know you Weiss and how you are." He then tells her as she let her head down in defeat.

"Woah." Ruby then says gaining their attention.

They all look to where she's staring and saw a destroyed dust shop with police tape everywhere, investigators searching the place, and everything. "What happened here?" Ruby asked as they walked up to it.

"Robbery. Second Dust Shop to be hit this week. This place is turning into a jungle." One of the investigators stated.

"They left all the money again." The other one states gaining the leaders' of the teams attention.

"Yeah, just doesn't make a lick o'sense. Who needs that much Dust?"

"I dunno, ya know what I mean?"

"You thinking the uh, White Fang?" Shard seemed annoyed when they brought up the White Fang.

"Ya, I'm thinking we don't get paid enough."

"Hmph, the White Fang. What an awful bunch of degenerates." Weiss says crossing her arms.

"What's your problem?" Blake then asks.

"My problem? I simply don't care for the criminally insane." The white-haired girl then states.

"Okay, I'd call White Fang a lot of things but-" Shard didn't finish.

"The White Fang is hardly a bunch of psychopaths. They're a collection of misguided Faunus." Blake tells her teammate.

"Right, but-" The fox boy was still getting interrupted.

"Misguided?! They want to wipe humanity off the face of the planet!" Weiss continues to protest.

"So, then they're 'very' misguided." Blake tells her again.

"Yeah, well ether way, it doesn't explain why they would just rob some random Dust Shop in the middle of downtown Vale." Shard says finally getting a chance to speak.

"True, there could be more criminals than just the White Fang." Ash states agreeing with her.

"Besides, the police never really caught that Torchwick guy I ran into a few months ago. Maybe it was him." Ruby tells her.

"Well, that doesn't change the fact that they're still criminals." Heather then says.

"Of course, those Faunus only know how to lie, cheat and steal." Weiss goes on.

"Okay, now that is not entirely true!" Shard said getting annoyed.

"STOP THAT FAUNUS!" Someone yelled getting their attention as they ran to the docks.

They looked and saw a monkey Faunus hop off one of the boats and hang from a lamppost with his tail. "You no-good animal!" One of them yelled angry.

"Hey, I'd be caught if I was no-good!" The boy says taking a banana peel off his banana before eating it and dodging a rock thrown at him.

"Hey, get down from there this instant!" One of the detectives says before getting a banana peel thrown at his face as the monkey boy laughs then hops off the lamppost then away past the gang with the detects on his tail… not literately.

"Well, there goes your competition girls." Derek states smirking as Heather glared at him.

"Quickly, we must observe him!" Weiss says before the gangs gives chase after him.

The two teams were running after the monkey boy as they were turning corners to try and keep up with Weiss and Heather further ahead before the white-haired girl bumped into someone causing the light brown-haired girl to trip and the rest of the gang to a stop.

The two on the ground looked up and saw their target go out of sight. "Damnit!" Heather said annoyed.

"No, he got away!" Weiss said saddened.

"Uh, guys?" Ash said as Yang pointed below.

They looked and jumped up when they saw a ginger haired girl with a pink bow lying on the ground smiling at them. "Salutations!" The girl said holding her hand up.

"Um, hello." Ruby said not knowing what to say.

"You, uh… you okay?" Derek asked a little freaked out.

"I'm wonderful. Thank you for asking." The girl said only causing them to stare more weirded out.

"Do you wanna… get up?" Yang asks uneasy.

"Yes." The girl said before springing up as the group moved back. "My name is Penny. It's a pleasure to meet you!" She exclaimed.

"Hi, Penny. I'm Ruby." Ruby tells her.

"I'm Shard." Shard states.

"I'm Weiss." Weiss continues.

"Heather." Heath just says.

"Blake." Blake states.

"I'm Ash." Ash tells her.

"You sure you didn't hit your head? Ow!" Derek said before getting hit by Heather. "Oh, sorry. I'm Derek." He then says.

"And I'm Yang." Yang then tells her.

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" Penny says again.

"Y-you already said that." The grey-haired boy points out.

"So, I did." The girl says after realizing what she just said.

"Well, sorry for running into you." Weiss says as they take off.

"Take care friend." Ruby says waving.

After they were sure they were far enough… "Dude, that girl was creepy as hell." Derek says.

"One thing I can agree on." Heather states.

"Now where did that riffraff run off to-" Weiss says before they see Penny in front of them making them jump.

"What did you just call me?" She asks as Weiss seemed freaked.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry. Didn't know you heard me, sorry!" Derek says waving his arms in defense.

"Not you." The girl says before walking up to Ruby. "You."

"Me, I-I don't…" The red-haired girl didn't know what to say.

"You called me 'friend'. Am I really your friend?" Penny asks leaning closer.

"Uuuuummmm…" Ruby didn't know what to say as she looked and saw her team telling her not to. "Sure, why not?" She says before they face faulted.

"AHAHA! Sen-sational!" The girl then said ecstatic. "We can paint our nails and try on clothes and talk about cute boys!" She then said with glee.

"I-is this what it was like when you met me?" Ruby asked her teammate.

"No, she seems 'far' more coordinated." Weiss states.

"So, what're you doing in Vale?" Yang asked curious.

"I'm here to fight in the tournament." Penny tells them.

"Wait, you're fighting in the tournament?" Heather asked confused.

"I'm combat ready." The girl then salutes.

"Forgive me, but you hardly look the part." Weiss then states.

"Says the girl wearing a dress?" Derek chimed in.

"It's a combat skirt." Weiss states.

"Yeah." Ruby says as her and Heather appear next to her before slapping their hands.

"Wait a minute." Weiss then realizes something. "You're here for the tournament. Do you know that monkey-tailed rapscallion?" She then asked Blake and Shard looked annoyed.

"Who?"

"The filthy Faunus from the boat!" Weiss then shows a poorly drawn picture.

"When did she draw that?" Derek whispers to Ash.

Shard was about to say something until… "Why do you keep saying that?!" Blake says catching her attention. "Stop calling him a rapscallion. Stop calling him a degenerate. He's a person!" She then goes on.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like me to stop referring to this trashcan as a trashcan, or this lamppost as a lamppost?" Weiss then says in her smart remarks. "He clearly broke the law. Give him time, he'll probably join up with those other Faunus in the White Fang." She then states as Blake clenched her fist.

"You ignorant little brat!" The black-haired girl said before storming off.

"How dare you talk to me like that! I am your teammate." Weiss said going to her.

"You are a judgmental little girl." Blake counters.

"Okay, I think we should go…" Ash states uneasily.

"Where are we going?" Penny asked.

"Not you!" Heather said shoving her off.

(Back at Beacon)

Team SHAD were annoyed because the argument was still going on which was annoying them. Shard had his head under his pillow, Heather was covering her ears, Derek was trying to sleep but flung up with bloodshot eyes clearly annoyed and Ash stacking book to take his mind off things.

"Ugh, I can't take it anymore!" Derek said annoyed more than ever.

"I know, it's so annoying." Heather groaned.

"You guys are lucky you don't have extra ears. I can literally hear them still bickering even under here." Shard said with a muffled voice annoyed as well.

"Sorry guys, I would go talk to Weiss about, but in this mood, I can't really do anything." Ash says feeling bad.

"It's bad enough they live right next to us!" Heather yelled getting angry.

"Okay, that's it!" Shard said taking his head away from his pillow then getting up. "I've had it." He then cracking his knuckles as he walked towards the walls.

"Wait, Shard what are you doing?" Ash said worried as he saw his leader ready his fist. "No, no, no!"

"WELL MAYBE WE WERE JUST TIRED OF BEING PUSHED AROUND!"

Shard then immediately stopped as his fox ears twitched. He looked shocked of what he just heard and lowered his fist. He then heard what sounded like someone bursting out of their room and stepped back. Ash looked at him concerned.

"Shard, you okay? What did you hear?" He asked as Shard looked back at him.

Derek and Heather looked at each other confused and didn't know what to ask.

(Next day)

Shard, Derek and Heather woke up that morning to see Ash again walk through the door fully dressed as he shut it. "Dude, stop waking up before us. I'm jealous over here because you're just eating before we do." Derek said rubbing his eyes.

"Sorry guys, it's just my thing." Ash told them before they got a knock at their door which he answered. "Hello? Oh, Ruby, hey." He said seeing the red- and black-haired girl.

"Hey, Ash, I need to ask you something. Do you know where Blake is?"

To be continued…

Yep, that short because I'm feeling lazy today. Look guys, I'd like to put an author's note here, but I'm lazy today so, see you next chapter.
