another day another chapter... and holy hell it has been a bit since I last wrote for this or any of my modern stories and I must say one thing to those that have been waiting for this... finals suck... that is all I need to say to that. anyhow, thank you so much for the support on the last chapter I really appreciate it and thank you for the fantastic comments which I will feature right bellow here.
Combine117: It went a little too fast and the spelling errors are driving me crazy (and I meant no offense) Also, why aren't team RWBY helping? Did Joker steal the show? So he can have the upper hand? Maybe. Great chapter, though.
thanks, man and no problem man I will always take constructive criticism
anyhow with that out of the way lets get to the chapter
LETSBEGIN
CHAPTER 2 (S4DC)
(with ?)
"Now then if you want to come at me. COME AT ME!" shouted Akira from the distance and the first to see this (other than team rwby) seemed to be a guy on a giant cloud with a smaller man sitting on its shoulder and a green and black ufo now let's look closer shall we see skull sitting on top of the man's shoulder
"You heard that right," said Ryuji
"Yes I heard that." said ORACLE "and I have to say even though the girls are not helping him you have to admit he is still a badass."
"Well you aren't wrong." said Ryuji "but you know he is getting his ass kicked over there… so why the hell are we not helping?"
"Haven't you heard of convenient timing." said Oracle and even though Ryuji could not see her she could tell she was deadpanning "and plus you can never expect him to really get his ass kicked for a long while."
And as soon as she said that the body of joker was launched to the sky to only fall to the ground as soon as he has launched to the ground thanks to a black line pulling him to the ground.
"Wait was that a grappling gun?" asked Oracle
"How the hell did he get that?" asked Ryuji "and do you think we can go and help him now."
"Na thus four girls are now helping him." said Oracle "also we need to wait for the others to get into range."
"Well I am not waiting," said Ryuji
"I thought I was not stopping you." said oracle matter-a-factly
"Whatever I knew you weren't but I thought I would stay with you," said Ryuji
"What just because I can't fight doesn't mean I can't defend myself," said Oracle
"Never said that." said Ryuji about to jump down from his persona Seiten-Taisei "and plus I know not to offend a woman."
"Test your luck like that and you might," said Oracle
"True but you have to admit that my ballsy nature is what makes me so good," said Ryuji as he jumps from his perch upon Seiten-Taisei and allowing his mask to materialize before going into a nosedive and grabbing his mask and ripping it off to reveal captain Kidd using the ship of captain Kidd to bash into the ground slowing Ryuji's momentum enough so then he won't die and bursting out of the smoke produced by the persona and thwacking Diana in the face with his shotgun and blasting her with the fake pellets of it.
"You know you could have come sooner." joker deadpanned
"Blame the fact that I thought you had her covered." said skull "oh and where did you get the grappling gun?"
"No clue." said, joker
"Um hello we're are in the middle of a fight here," said Diana
"Screw that fun banter between two bros that have not seen each other in a day." said skull with joker nodding in approval
"Welp two birds with one stone then." said Diana before cocking her gun "lady khan will love to meet with you all."
"Do you chicks/ladies know who that is?" asked both joker and skull only to be cut off by the sound of a rifle firing and the form of Diana barreling toward them
"Enough talking more fighting," said Diana before taking a few slashes in only for joker and skull to black with there assorted weapons so joker decided why not shoot her weapon to make her drop it so he tried to do that only for Diana to block them with the proper side for deflection (also the fact that he was essentially shooting pellets at her) only for ruby to take and make the shot disarming Diana before she could get anymore shots in only for Diana to take out a modified Marui Socom MK23 to start shooting joker only for them to be blocked by glyphs produced by Weiss allowing skull to get in close and get a few hits in with his bat even though it broke on contact with her but it was enough for her to let go of the gun for Akira to grab it remove the silencer on it and put the gun straight to Diana's temple.
"I would recommend you start talking before you regret it in the end." said joker
"What do you put guns to all people you meet?" asked Diana
"Well no… wait do we?" asked joker as he looked toward skull
"Nope only all shadows." said skull "but that doesn't matter. Are you going to talk or not."
"Your response is not very trustworthy." deadpanned blake
"I JUST SAID THAT WE DON'T DO THAT!" shouted skull
"But you put guns to Grimm's heads before and while sure it is not as easy to do to a grim but that would mean that it would be as easy as sitting down when it came to bringing a person down with that," said Weiss
"This is no the time." said joker before looking toward Diana "who hired you to hunt us down?"
"Would you believe me if I said it was a man with a giant effin nose," said Diana
And with that one statement everyone, there was suddenly in shock but only two people were brave enough to actually voice this.
"What the fuck?" asked Ruby and skull in pure shock
"Did he wear a black suit on him?" asked Weiss
"Yes," said Diana
"Was there a little girl with a giant freakin book with him?" asked Blake
"Yes," said Diana
"Did skull/ruby just say fuck?" asked both yang and oracle who just so happened to creep behind the two phantom thieves
"Yes. yes we did." said both skull and ruby both peering around embarrassed "don't tell mom/dad"
"Why would Igor sell us and four teenage girls out to a merc?" pondered joker
"Don't know." said Diana "he just said he would pay me kindly if I brought you seven to beacon"
"Ok I get them being able to summon a giant fire demon and a giant ship captain and her," said Weiss pointing at Oracle "but why us why would Igor sell us out even though we were helping him in the first place"
"Wait you know long nose?" questioned the three thieves
"That's what you call him?" asked yang
"No he did not sell you out." said Diana "he never knew you were going to be here today and that order was four months ago so he never knew you would be here today."
"So you think that is enough info joker?" asked Oracle
"No there is one more question." said joker putting the gun away and walking to grab king's knight but right as he was about to pick up the weapon he went straight toward his pocket to grab a white wallet with a small snowflake on one of the edges of the wallets surface "how much do I have to pay you to work for us instead?"
"WAIT DID YOU STEAL MY WALLET!?" shouted Weiss
"About 18000 lein," said Diana with a slight smirk
And at that jokers face turned cold before turning to skull and Oracle in a slight panic
"Yes I did snatch some from a few people." said skull before feeling the glasses at his back "they were bank robbers and they had wallets"
"Good I thought you were stupid enough to rob from us." said yang
"BUT HE HAS MY WALLET!" shouted Weiss
"Nope, I did. not I just bought this one because I thought it looked nice." said, joker
"Well you're not wrong." said Oracle "did you know that they sell custom ones here?"
"Really? Sweet I love those things!" said skull
"We will go there after but right now we have a job to do." said joker before turning back to Diana "of course you will work for that siana woman you were speaking of earlier but meanwhile you will try to find the others and give the information about where they are to us so we can retrieve them ourselves is that understood?"
"You know I have been doing this job for the past four months right." said Diana "two of them are in atlas and the others are still in the city but judging from these two since they were in patch for the longest timing of four hours."
"Well then skull will give you the cash and we will be on our way." said joker before disbursing his phantom thief outfit "and for you four thank you for your time but right now I need to say thank you for being so kind as to save me from getting shot in the effing head earlier and for your phone numbers form the blond monkey's phone and we shall be on our way"
"Nope not happening." said Ruby "it is obvious that you are new here and you guys might not be able to navigate around and i just think that you three might get lost without the proper help and this is really awkward and you all might think I am annoying now because of it and-"
"The point is you want us to come with you so then we can get more information." said joker causing ruby to nod "well it could help."
"Great two people that are not in our payroll." said Weiss before turning toward skull "just because Igor gave you to us doesn't mean we will always be sunshine and rainbows when it comes to you."
"Got it to miss priss," said Ryuji
"And the names Weiss!" said Weiss walking away from the group
"Don't mind her. She's like that." said ruby before running toward her best friend
"We can tell." said Futaba before doing a double take "wait what do you mean in our payroll?"
(one night of exposition later as well as one trip to beacon later)

"Oh please come in," said PROFESSOR OZPIN
"Sup teach!" said yang "we have some lost folk here that need to be led in the right direction!"
"Hello there girls I was wondering if you were going to turn up today." said ozpin "and who are these people exactly?"
"Oh these are Akira kurusu, Ryuji Sakamoto and Futaba sakura," said Ruby "these three are part of a larger group and well let's say that they are all lost around vale."
"I see. well you three are allowed to stay here until the end of the tournament." said professor ozpin "oh before I forget what academy did you come from before coming here to beacon."
"Shujin academy," said Ryuji
"I see." said ozpin peacing an imaginary puzzle together "and Futaba what school did you come from?"
"I did not go to school," said Futaba allowing ozpin to nod in acceptance
"I see." said ozpin "and your friends do they go to the same school as you?"
"Well inari is really the only one out of us that did not go to shujin with you guys," said Futaba
"Yha." said Akira "why are you asking us this?"
"Because if I recall there is no such mention of any of you here in vale's database." said ozpin
"Is there mention of us in any other database?" asked Futaba
"No.," said ozpin "I would know if you three were there."
"Well then let's fix that," said ?
"Ah GLINDA what is it that you need at this hour?" asked ozpin
"Well the fact that four people just came here with no issue whatsoever with no such thing as a record or even scroll to show who the hell they are is a sign of me need to be here at this hour." said Glinda matter factly "I am here because these three and maybe more are likely attached to HER in some way shape or form"
Suddenly ozpin's face went cold at the thought sure the evidence lined up, no history, no homes, no nothing. It was likely something she would have done to make sure they would not be tracked but there was only one way to be certain even though Glinda would not be happy about it.
"Team rwby you are dismissed thank you for your time." said ozpin before turning to Glinda "are you ok with them coming to stay at your dorm for a while?"
"I was going to suggest that," said Glinda
"Good." said ozpin
"Can we go now?" wined Futaba
Both adults turned toward the girl to see her laying on ozpin's desk drooling at the site of what was on his browser… which was multiple photos of food items like curry, pizza and of course raman.
"Well guess we have that to figure out." said Ryuji before looking toward Akira "you want to?"
"Hell yes." was all Akira said
"Well then you three come with me to my personal dorm so then you can make yourself food," said Glinda
"Thank you for having us stay there." said all three of them
"Your welcome but remember mess up the place and I will not hesitate to execute punishment," said Glinda
"Will do!" said both Ryuji and Futaba
"The only thing I will mess up is your silverware and that's when it comes to making food," said Akira
"Good," said Glinda before walking toward the elevator "now please follow me"
(Akira pov)
Suddenly I hear the sound of shattering glass and arcane chanting one thing "empress" over and over before stopping
'Sweet. I love this song and dance… I just hope that I don't have another teacher crushing on me' thought Akira 'although here I think it might be ok.'
yup, I am considering romance! that's right we have social links and you know what that means...ships. so I have a question for you for this and I want to put it up for a vote on here and the poll on my home page so I should tell who I am considering beforehand like this is only going to feature Ann, Makoto, and Haru because they are the only females that are of American legal age (even though I know that they are Japanese) and they are the only ones that are here in remnant that is likely willing to have sex with Akira unlike Futaba (yes I know she is but this is my headcanon here) which I think she would be more like a little sister to him. now thank you for your patience see you later, DFTBA!
