Fianna Chernyy

Lothur Blutmond

Emerald Sustrai

Soleil Rouge

Team SDMT (Sediment)

Sally Skyfire

Drakon Marvos

Mercury Black

Mindy Terra

Anyway, let's get to it.

Sincerely, Melody


Most of the students of Beacon usually found the first day to be boring. It's rather normal for most schools so there wasn't anything out of the ordinary… Until the first years arrived at their first Biology class. The first students to arrive were Team RWBY. As they walked in they saw Leon writing something on the chalkboard, smoking a cigarette in the process. Sitting on his desk was a mostly full ashtray with two flasks beside it. One flask was black while the other was a copper red. Posters lined the walls depicting the different organs of the body, a, hopefully, fake skeleton hanging up near the chalkboard, and there were medical and biology textbooks sitting on the desks.

Leon seemed to ignore them as they walked into the classroom. Looking around they noticed there wasn't a proper seating order. They eventually just found seats in the back and sat down quietly as more students entered the classroom. The last group of students to enter was Team SDMT. When Sally entered she saw Leon smoking while ignoring his students. So she walked over to the chalkboard and grabbed an eraser.

"Heya Leon," She greeted, which caused him to turn his head to her. The moment he was looking at her, his vision was blocked out as the eraser pinged him in the head. "NO SMOKING IN SCHOOL!" She shouted at him, causing the rest of the students to cover their ears.

Leon placed a hand on his head and glared at her. This glaring contest continued for about a minute before Leon relented with a sigh. "Good morning to you too Sally, please take a seat." He half-heartedly told her with a smirk on his face. She smiled at him before giving him a quick hug and going to the seat Mercury kept free for her. To the entire class, it was fairly jarring to see him like that, save for Mercury, given his introduction the prior day.

"Ahem," He started as he put the cigarette out. "Now listen up. My name is Leon Rivers, for the next four years, I'll be your biology and survival/medicine professor. Since this is the first day, I won't torture you all with lessons just yet. If you have any questions for me, go ahead and ask."

Weiss was the first person to raise her hand which got a nod from Leon. "How did you get a job at Beacon, you don't seem like the type of person to be a teacher."

He nodded. "Good question, Ozpin asked me to be a teacher here. Next question?" He said as he pointed to another student.

For the entirety of class, he answered random questions about himself and what his class would be like. To be frank, he actually enjoyed talking to them; He wasn't an asshole the whole time so that was a plus in their book. It was all going great until Drakon held his hand up and Leon asked what his question was.

With a bit of hesitation, he spoke. "Have you ever killed someone?"

With that asked the room went silent and the students looked between the two. Letting out a sigh Leon grabbed a cigarette and lit it. "How should I answer this?" He spoke up and gave a sideways glance to Sally who had slunk into her chair and looked like she was trying to hide. A slight nod of her made him let out a puff of smoke. "Do you want specifics or just a yes?" Some students gasped and worry grew on their features.

"Um, specifics I guess?" Drakon replied as he awkwardly rubbed the back of his head.

Leon nodded. "Okay then yes, I have killed a person; I've killed many people when I was a bounty hunter and member of the police force as a detective. If you can't tell, I'm not a Huntsmen and don't really give a shit about being one personally." He answered. It was a half-truth really, he was effectively a lawman and bounty hunter back on Earth and he had killed a lot of people; An unhealthy amount for his consciousness. "I only killed in self-defense but I can't give you a number. Eventually, you get used to it; Don't." With that said, the bell rang and students started to gather their things. Most rushed out of the classroom quickly which put a scowl on his face and the last one in there was Sally.

She walked over and rubbed the back of her head. "Hey… I figured you didn't want to mention it but it might help them trust you?" She suggested meekly.

He just rolled his eye. "I don't really care if they do. My only priorities are keeping you and Mercury safe and finding out where the bitch is that nearly killed Amber and me." He said absentmindedly as he walked over and sat in his chair.

"Someone nearly killed you and Amber?" The shock on her face was clear and that made Leon realize what he said.

"Shit," He muttered under his breath before he looked up to her. "Don't tell anyone alright? Ozpin didn't even want me to tell you but I'm fucking exhausted right now."

"When was the last you slept?" She questioned and leaned against his desk while taking his cigarette, flicking the ash from the cherry..

He gave her a slight glare before answering. "Last week? Week and a half? I'm not sure. Too damn long for it to be healthy."

"Maybe you should try to get some sleep then, your class is only in the morning so you should be able to relax for a bit." She suggested but he just shook his head. "Why?"

"I gotta go to see Junior. He has some info for me, so does Roman evidently."

"You're still able to interact with them despite being a teacher?"

"Ozpin thinks it's helpful. Qrow gets info from regular people and I delve into the Underworld like some fucked up form of Orpheus." Sally just gave him a confused stare. "How the hell do you not know what I'm talking about? After all of the crash courses I gave you about Greeco-Roman mythology, I'd figure you'd retain more than Zeus and Jupiter."

"To be fair, usually you were overly sarcastic about most of the stuff you taught us so I thought you were just joking when you said I should remember that kind of stuff."

"Fair point, you should get going. You still have class and your other two teammates are hiding in the hallway. Probably waiting for you or your dead body." He suggested with a sardonic chuckle. She laughed also and gave him a quick hug before running out of the classroom.

Leaning back in his chair, Leon stared at the ceiling as he pulled out his scroll and dialed Ozpin's number. "I accidentally told Sally… I haven't agreed to that… I know dammit… We'll discuss this after I get back from Junior's." With that, he hung up.


Six sat in Nate's warehouse as he and Nate looked over some papers. Nate had nicked them from some high-end Bonepickers recently. They were plans for some raids they had planned which included Six's camp. As he read over them Six was left confused and angered. The plans discussed something about using Synths Father had made on Remnant. Nate thankfully explained what Synths were while MacCready was doing gear checks. It baffled him that people could make robots that looked mostly like people.

What they were currently looking at was a mission order on attacking the village Six and his team had been doing recon on. It made sense with how obvious some of the members were being. He just felt stupid now. How did he not notice something like that? Shaking his head he went back to looking over the papers; Scanning them to retain the information easier. As he sat there his scroll started to buzz. Reaching into his pocket he pulled it out and saw a picture of him and Emerald.

"Hey Darlin', how ya doin'?" He asked once he answered, Nate, shooting him a look as he spoke up.

"Hi Six, I was just worried about you. You didn't call yesterday so I wanted to talk to you." Some pain was evident in her voice, emotional specifically, but she was trying to cover it up.

Letting out a sigh he put down the papers. "I meant to, I'm sorry but… Something came up. I can't give specifics right now but I'll fix it. So who's the leader of your team? If it's Lothur I feel sorry for ya."

She giggled a bit before replying. "No, it's Fianna thank goodness. We also have another teammate. His name is Soleil."

"Really now? Well, what's he like?"

"Well he loo-, seems nice! Really polite; He even said he was charmed to meet me, I can't wait to get to know him better." She said hastily which caused him to laugh. "What's so funny?"

"You seem ta have a crush on this boy based on how ya almost said he looked nice. No need to be embarrassed, I don't mind if ya get a boyfriend; I'll try to scare him though."

"Nooooooooooooo…"

Six just laughed some more before turning back to the papers. "Listen Em, I gotta go but I'll call ya as soon as I got the time. Stay safe and make sure ya kick ass at Beacon, bye Em."

"Bye Six… You stay safe also…" She told him, disappointment in her tone before the call ended. It kind of sounded like she had something else to tell him but he wasn't sure.

Putting his scroll away with a chuckle Six looked up at Nate who was giving him a curious look. "If ya gotta question then out with it."

"Was that your daughter or something like that?" The pale man replied as he set down his papers.

"More of an adopted younger sister but I did take care of her for a while till we met some friends that lent a hand. One of them is my Captain, Flynn. He was taken by that fucker." Six explained, his tone getting ever so slightly angrier.

Nate nodded before he stood up. "We'll get them back, don't worry about it. Now let's go grab something to eat, I'm famished." He said before turning and leaving the room.

Six nodded and followed behind him. In his mind, a plan was already formulating.

"If you don't hurry they'll be dead. You should just use the information they gave you and go deal with them; We both know we could handle them." The voice's presence appeared once more and Six scowled.

"How the hell can I do that? I'm at a severe disadvantage considering people there could have Semblances." Six replied in his mind.

"Hehe, you don't have to worry about that. I'll tell you how to unlock it." The voice chuckled again as it taunted Six.

"That ain't gonna happen. I ain't given my body to a voice in my head." Six replied before going silent once more.

As he got his food, Six suppressed the voice. He sat silently with the other two as they all ate. In his mind, he continued to go over the plan that he had made. When they attacked he'd slip into the shadows and start making his way to wherever his teammates were being held. He'd break them out while Nate and MacCreedy would deal with the rest, eventually meeting up with them and finishing off the Bonepickers.


Roman sat in the backroom of Junior's club smoking a cigar. Sitting beside him was Neo as usual and across from him was a group of four; Three humans and a Faunus. They were now just waiting for Leon to show up. Veronica, Arcade, Ulysses, and Carmine were their names and they had wanted to meet the hitman; Regulator, Leon was a Regulator as he always corrected Roman. At first, the thief hadn't believed him but over the years of seeing the contracts that Leon would take he was convinced. Junior brought in a bottle of whiskey for the group along with a chilled bottle of blood wine for Leon once he showed up.

What confused him was their reason for wanting to meet him. They wanted to get information on a person that they assumed was related to Leon. Junior said they were regulars when it came to getting information from him so Roman wondered why the hell he had to deal with them. It didn't matter though as he got a message from Leon saying he'd be there in about twenty minutes. Luckily though they hadn't been sitting there silently for the past half hour.

"It's been about seven years since we've seen him but knowing him, he isn't dead," Veronica explained as she took a sip of her whiskey.

"So can you tell me anything about this guy?" Roman asked and let out another puff of smoke.

"He's a man with tanned skin, dark hair, and maroon eyes. His left arm is completely cybernetic but covered with synthetic skin." Ulysses answered with his usual dower tone.

Not a moment later the doors opened into the backroom. Leon stood with a cigarette hanging from his lips and an annoyed look on his face. Neo offered him a cup of wine which he took and drank while slinking down on the couch beside her. Looking up from his glass he saw the people he had seen the other day.

"So you're the Wanderer?" Ulysses asked which got a nod. "May I ask for your real name? It might be bothersome to constantly say that."

"Leon." He replied which got him shocked looks from Roman and Neo.

"First time you meet them you tell them your name but I have to wait a year and a half? And I thought I was your best friend." Roman commented with a chuckle.

"Butch is my best friend, you're my business partner at best most of the time." He bluntly stated. "Plus, they're from the same place as me. So, why did you need me here?"

The group of four looked between each other for a moment before Veronica spoke up. "Myself, Ulysses, and Arcade are looking for a man named Six, he's a good friend of ours."

Looking over to Carmine, Leon raised his eyebrow. "And you?"

Reaching into a purse Carmine pulled out a strange microphone looking device. Placing it to her throat which had a jagged scar, a robotic voice spoke up. "He saved my life and my son's life five and a half years ago. I want to thank him for what he did."

"That doesn't sound like Frank," Roman commented which made Leon nod.

"Yeah, that son of a bitch wouldn't save anyone. May I ask, what did he save you from?"

"The Bonepickers… The slave-trading organization ran by a man called Father."

Hearing that name caused Leon to perk up. Setting his glass aside he leaned forward. "Tell me what you know about the Bonepickers and Father, we'll consider this payment for the information we'll find for you."

Roman let out an annoyed sigh. "Really? No money? You know the job I'm currently on pays like shit."

"If you don't bitch I'll give you two million Lien," Leon replied sharply which got Roman to nod. "Now… Tell me what you know."

And with that, the chapter is finished. I apologize that this chapter is so late. Lately, I've been working ten-hour days, six days a week so I haven't been able to do much writing. Anyway, let's get to the reviews.

Kpmh2001: Yeah, I got a good idea of what his Semblance will be and it will relate to his fighting style in a way. I'm glad you enjoy the story, hopefully, one of the ideas you thought of matches what I'm planning cause that would be cool.

ILikeHotDogs: Thanks man, I tried to make sure there weren't many errors with this chapter but you know I can be pretty shit at editing.

Rio Skyron: I hope it's confusing in a good way. I agree RT is fairly lazy when it comes to stuff like that. Honestly, I kind of hate the company.

54godamora: Glad you're caught up and you find the story amazing. I feel like in the previous version of this fic, Lucky Sevens, I should've just included more Fallout characters after rereading it a lot. I'm not sure what that Fallout Tale thing is, I tried googling it but I didn't find anything; Maybe I didn't try harder enough to find it though.

Monster King: I shall continue, glad you think the story is awesome.

Anyhow, I hope everyone enjoyed it and I'll try to have the next chapter uploaded a bit quicker but that depends on my job and whether or not my boss decides to be a dick. See y'all next chapter and please leave a review because I love getting feedback from people.
