"Well alright, then! Looks like we're going to save the world with Dr Oobleck…" Ruby trailed off. "Okay, yeah when you say it out loud it sounds worse." She hung her head.
They had recently managed to get a mission near the south-east, but now they had to go with Dr Oobleck. They were quite apprehensive of this fact.
"Saving the world!" A voice from behind them drew their attention. Turning they saw team JNPR, with Nora having been the one shouting. "You're going on world saving missions without us?" She made an effort to look hurt. "I'm hurt… sad! Maybe a little hungry?" Her stomach growled as if to accentuate her point. "That last one's not your fault, though… Ren…"She turned to glare at the offending party.
Ren simply crossed his arms and looked away.
"I doubt they are actually going to save the world in all honesty." Another voice from outside their field of vision was their only warning before Wayle joined their gathering. "Saving a world requires effort beyond even all of us here. Maybe if all of beacon worked at it…" He tilted his head slightly in thought.
"Umm…" The others looked slightly confused. "Right! So where are you going?" Jaune quickly blurted out to break the silence.
"Oh, just outside the kingdom." Ruby said simply.
"Hey, so are we!" Nora exclaimed excitedly.
"Ren and Nora wanted to shadow the sheriff of a nearby village." Pyrrha explained helpfully.
"We set out tomorrow." Ren finished in a slightly more animated voice than usual.
"What about you Wayle? Ozpin called you aside earlier…" Blake questioned Wayle hopefully.
"Unfortunately just some Search and Destroy in the east for me I am afraid." Wayle smiled. "Which reminds me I need to go now." He turned and started heading away.
"Just some Search and Destroy?" Yang raised an eyebrow.
"He always did prefer Clandestine Operations." A slightly unsettling voice delivering an unsettling message.
They turned to look towards the source to see Amara and Latune approach.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Blake questioned Amara.
"He prefers Infiltration and Assassination missions before Search and Destroy. Can't say I understand why." Amara's voice was sultry and a cruel smiled adorned her face.
"Four minutes ladies!" A distant voice reminded team RWBY that they also needed to go.
"Well… Wish us luck!" Ruby tried to be cheery as she gave a thumbs up.

He had had quite a day. Grimm in the tunnels, Grimm in the streets above, problems with the loading of the train… the list went on and on.
And then there was that Faunus girl that had suddenly one day woken up screaming about dark lords and how their cause was doomed and what have you. Then to top it all off she had disappeared yesterday. He sighed, could this day get any more troublesome?
"Hey boss! Found something you might want to see!" A voice called him from outside the train car he was in.
He sighed again. He just had to tempt fate.
"Is it good or bad Gary? Because, let me tell ya, I have had a day." He responded nonchalantly, no need to let his emotions show.
"Uh… It's a little girl…?" Gary, if that was actually his name, responded tentatively.
'Crap, crap, crap.' He hurried to look out, hoping that it wasn't who he thought it was.
When he looked out, he saw two White Fang soldiers, one of who had glasses on top of his mask. Between them they held a small, adorable girl with a red hood.
"Thaat would be bad." He simply said and threw away his cigar.
Of course, that was a major understatement. That was probably among the worse things possible after all.
-Break—
Chop, stab, spin, and slash. Three Beowulves fell dead. It was almost too easy. That was to say if there weren't so damn many of them…
They had managed to find some rest between the days, but it was still quite the tiring chore. Still, at least he got to see Professor Goodwitch in action. He looked over to see her swatting Grimm about with waves of her crop. That was a riding crop, right? He wasn't being crazy after all… he hoped.
He shrugged and sent an Ursa flying with a wave of his hand. This was hardly the time to be distracted.
Suddenly his senses told him that he was about to be impaled, so he jumped ahead into a roll. Turning as he came up, he saw his previous position be impaled by a giant feather.
A cry drew his attention into the sky where a Nevermore flew by, already swerving around for another attack.
Wayle focused and directed his hand towards it. It started flailing as it suddenly was pulled downwards, attempting to stabilise itself and pull up again. But it was all in vain as it continued plummeting towards the ground, finally crashing down, crushing several Grimm as it was impaled on an extra spiky and large Ursa.
Even so it still tried to lift its head. Wayle simply casually walked up to the struggling giant Grimm, his sword taking on a green glow as he activated the dust.
He jumped and spun around, his sword slicing right through the creature's neck, decapitating it instantly.
Landing neatly on his feet, he surveyed his surroundings. There were dead Grimm everywhere, even if they were dispersing into smoke or dust. And even then there were many left, coming at them in great numbers. Of course, there might have been even more than there should have been because of him.
He spotted a Deathstalker come crashing towards Professor Goodwitch. Holding out his hand he focused his ill will towards it, clenching his fingers slightly as he raised it.
The beast floated up as immense unseen forces started crushing it, denting and cracking the armoured chitin. It screeched and flailed its limbs, trying to break free, all in vain. Then it gave one final screech as its entire body was twisted and compressed, killing it outright.
The professor gave him a fearful glance before she continued on her way. Wayle sought out the greatest concentration of Grimm and leaped into the middle of them, gathering his power around him, creating a field of energy as he furled together.
A Beowulf tried to leap at him, but met the field and was repelled as electricity started crackling around it.
Then he unfurled, unleashing the gathered power in a wave of power and electricity, levelling large swatches of terrain around him and annihilating the Grimm in his vicinity.
As the dust settled Wayle remarked upon the fact that there were no more Grimm in sight. Extending his senses he felt no more Grimm in the near area.
Tentative footsteps told him that the professor was approaching. Rising up and turning towards her he noted that she had a few scrapes here and there, as well as some patches of dirt on her clothes. She also had a combination of annoyance and fear on her features.
"Forgive me Professor. I should have warned you beforehand." He said calmly.
"That would have been appreciated yes." There was a slight quiver in her voice. "It would seem that you overdid it, although you also did your job." She pushed up her glasses with her crop.
"Hmm, yes, I did overdo it. That rock could still have been there after all…" Wayle said contemplatively to mess with the stern woman.
She sighed. "Why did I agree to oversee you?" She muttered.
Wayle gave a low chuckle to mark that he heard her before he turned his attention towards a newcomer in the area. He raised his hand before he leapt off towards the newcomer.

Amara was in an Atlesian gunship along with a squadron of droids and Latune in her Paladin. Apparently Grimm had managed to invade the city and they had been sent to deal with them.
Now, this wouldn't be Amara's first combat drop, but it would probably be the first time she fought alongside a force consisting almost exclusively of droids.
Then the hatch opened and the droids started jumping straight out. When the last one had jumped out Latune followed in the Paladin while Amara hitched a ride down with it.
It crashed straight down into an Ursa, turning it to a pulp before Latune immediately hopped back and fired, bringing down two other Ursai.
Amara leapt off, slicing a Beowulf in two before sending several of them flying with the Force. She then quickly dashed off, killing several Grimm with quick slashes around her as she became a storm of crimson light.
Then she came to a halt, only to jump forward, smashing into the ground causing a shockwave to spread out, knocking back or killing a score of Grimm.
Then electricity arced out from her fingers, electrocuting several Grimm before her as she leapt forth again, cutting down an Ursa before catching a Boarbatusk with the Force, crushing it.
Taking a moment to survey the battlefield she found that the droids had done their job pretty well, while the Hunters did a fine job as well. In the meantime Latune was using her Paladin to engage and kill larger Grimm while the droid soldiers keep smaller Grimm off her.
Amara had to admit that Latune did a good job with her Paladin, evading Deathstalker stingers and pincers while using the cannons to blast them apart. And when a group of Beowulves did manage to reach her, she showed one of the most distinct differences between her Paladin and other Paladins as a burst of fire drove them away or killed them outright.
Then the sound of roaring engines drew her attention to a Bullhead swerving in position revealing a disparate group, one portly elderly man and four youths clad in different brown colours. If her memory served, the elderly man would be Professor Port, one of the teachers from Beacon and the youths would be team CFVY, a second year team that had been delayed on a mission.
They leapt out, landing, two of them, a long haired girl with long animal ears and a dark skinned man with red hair dashed ahead, while another, taller girl with extravagant clothes walked away calmly. Lastly, another, larger dark skinned man with a giant sword and armour stayed where he landed.
The armoured man brandished his sword as he was surrounded by Beowulves, and when they charged, he simply smashed it into the ground, cratering it and sending the surrounding Beowulves flying away.
At the same time the two vanguards smashed into the Grimm, the man slicing them with the blades on his wrists while the girl simply kicked them into submission. Then a larger Ursa with more spikes came up to deal with the new threats. The man simply charged it, sending it into the sky and slicing it several times before striking it away into the group of Grimm behind where it exploded, sending spines everywhere, killing the Grimm around it and causing his team to cower a bit.
Then the tall girl came walking up, giving the red-haired man a smack on his but before steeping forth, coming to halt before a giant Beowulf, giving it a glare over the rim of her sunglasses.
"You just destroyed my favourite clothing store. Prepare to die." She spoke to it, informing it of its impending fate and the reason for it. Then she spat to the side.
The Beowulf lunged with an overhead strike that was repelled by her purse before she kicked it in the groin, causing it to fall down. Then she smashed her purse into its head to finish it off. A few swift kicks against the charging Grimm drove them off before she jumped back to avoid a Deathstalker's stinger.
The other girl came up but was held back by the taller girl who advanced as her purse unfolded into a mini-gun. Amara paused to try and figure out how that small purse turned into that giant gun, but she gave up.
Said gun then tore apart the Deathstalker, followed by some Beowulves and finally some Nevermores who had swooped into the city during the chaos.
"Amara!" Latune's voice brought her back to reality. "We need to close the hole in the street!"
"And you want me to fix that?!" Amara snapped back.
"Do you see someone who could do it better around here?" Latune replied sardonically.
Amara grumbled a bit and then focused her power on the hole, pushing the train wreckage back down into the tunnel underneath before setting pieces of the street back down onto it to patch it up, although there was still a need to reinforce that part and for someone to help fix it better.
"Wait, what's one of those doing here?" Ruby's voice reached them. "And why did Amara come riding down with it?"
The hatch opened and Latune stepped out.
"Because we are with the Atlas military." She simply stated.
"You… what?" Weiss looked flabbergasted.
"So that's why you were with Penny." Ruby mumbled, just loudly enough that Amara and Latune could hear.
"Well, yes, I suppose that would be the case." Amara said hesitantly.
"Awesome!" Ruby's eyes sparkled for some reason as she looked at the Paladin.
Author's notes: This felt generally like it could have been better. Oh well, at least it's something, right? Do tell what you think and review, it helps a lot. But at least now I have no excuse to follow the cannon, mainly because there's currently no cannon to follow. So now we will hopefully have more Sith shenanigans. I hope you enjoyed and that you have a nice day.
