RWBY is owned by Rooster Teeth
Once Ruby and Blake got to Ruby's workshop, Ruby sat down and Blake placed Gambol Shroud on the work bench. Ruby reached under the work bench and pulled out a metal case.
She held it up to Blake smiling and said "I got this for you."
Blake raised an eyebrow and opened the case, revealing an identical blade to Gambol Shroud.
"I got the materials and machined it myself" Ruby said "it will fit onto Gambol Shroud with no problem. It's made of a titanium alloy, it's stronger than steel and just two thirds the weight."
"I…I don't know what to say Ruby" Blake said.
"How about thanks" Ruby said with a giggle "do you want me to attach it?"
"Yes" Blake said with a nod "please and thank you."
A few minutes later, Ruby handed Gambol Shroud back to Blake.
"Wow" Blake said as she looked the weapon over "this is great, Ruby. Really, it is."
Suddenly, both of their scrolls went off. Pulling their scrolls out of their pockets they saw a map of the kingdom with an area blinking red.
"Grimm" Blake said.
"I guess your new blade gets a baptism by fire" Ruby said "let's go."
They both ran back upstairs and stopped in the living room. Weiss came running out of the kitchen while taking an apron off. Yang came down the stairs hopping on her left foot and trying to pull her right boot on. Blake looked down at her bare feet and ran to the hall closet. She grabbed her boots and quickly pulled them up her legs and buckled them, then grabbed her trench coat. She grabbed Yang's jacket and tossed it to her as she finished zipping her boot.
"Come on!" Ruby said as Yang finished putting her jacket on.
All four of them ran out the door with Ruby in the lead.
"Where are we going?" Weiss asked.
"Shopping district, downtown Vale" Ruby said.
"Take Weiss and go ahead" Blake said "Yang and I will catch up."
Ruby nodded then grabbed Weiss and they disappeared in a red and white blur, leaving rose petals behind.
"We'll get there faster along the rooftops" Blake said.
"After you" Yang said.
Blake threw Gambol Shroud at the top of a fire escape and quickly climbed up. Yang fired Ember Celica at the ground, propelling herself up. She grabbed the fire escape on the second floor then fired again, propelling herself higher.
She reached the rooftop next to Blake and asked "what do you say Blakey, last one there buys the first round afterwards?"
"You're on" Blake said.
She took off across the rooftops, jumping from building to building. Yang appeared next to her as she ran. Meanwhile, Ruby and Weiss appeared at the shopping district.
Weiss wobbled a little and asked "how can you do that without getting sick?"
"I guess you get used to it" Ruby said as she took Crescent Rose off of her back and extended it as she spun it around.
Weiss drew Myrtenaster and rotated the dust cylinder to ice dust. Several ursas and beowolves were terrorizing people running and hiding in shops. The huntresses rushed forward towards the grimm. Weiss stabbed an Ursa in the neck. It disintegrated as Weiss spun around and decapitated a Beowolf. She pointed Myrtenaster at two Ursas and froze them. Ruby cut a beowolf in half before shooting several ursas and beowolves. An elderursa approached them, the large spikes on its back setting it apart adding to the intimidation factor. Weiss spun Myrtenaster's cylinder to fire dust and aimed at the elderursa. The ursa roared and charged her. A beowolf charged her from the right seemingly out of nowhere. Weiss quickly turned and fired a fireball at the beowolf, killing the grimm but leaving herself vulnerable. Ruby appeared between Weiss and the elderursa in a burst of rose petals and prepared Crescent Rose. Before she could attack, the huge paw of the elderursa slammed into her, sending her flying towards Weiss. She tried to catch her with a glyph, but Ruby slammed into her before she could summon one. The elderursa stood over them on its hind legs and raised a paw with its deadly claws ready to strike.
Suddenly, several bullets and blasts from Ember Celica hit the huge grimm as a familiar voice yelled "GET AWAY FROM THEM!"
Ruby and Weiss watched as Gambol Shroud wrapped around the elderursa's neck and yanked the creatures head to the side, directly towards Yang's robotic fist as she rocketed towards the huge grimm. Yang's fist collided with the grimm's head and snapped its neck to the side as Blake pulled back on Gambol Shroud, decapitating the elderursa. Yang skidded to a stop, her red eyes turned violet as she looked at Ruby and Weiss.
"You guys ok?" she asked as she held her hand out.
"Yeah" Ruby said as she took her hand and was pulled to her feet.
Blake ran over and helped Weiss up.
Ruby spun Crescent Rose around and said "get ready! Weiss and I will slow down the elders. Yang, you and Blake go left and clear the clothes stores and the bookstore. Then sweep right to the video game store.
"Right" Yang said as she ran towards a large group of grimm on the left side of the square with Blake on her heels.
"How are we going to stop all the eldergrimm here alone?" Weiss asked.
Ruby spun Crescent Rose around and stuck the blade of the scythe into the ground and said "ice flower!"
Weiss rotated the dust cylinder to ice and created three glyphs in front of Crescent Rose's barrel.
"Call them out" Ruby said.
Weiss scanned the square for elder and larger grimm.
"Two o'clock" she said "elderwolf."
Ruby aimed and fired, the combined bullet and ice dust froze the elderwolf solid.
"Eleven thirty" Weiss said "elderursa. Hurry, its going after a group of civilians!"
Ruby quickly took aim and fired, freezing the elderursa.
"That's the last of the elders I can see" Weiss said.
"Then let's go finish off the rest" Ruby said as she readied Crescent Rose "we'll go right and clear the café and toy store then sweep left."
Weiss readied her sword and slid across the square on a glyph as Ruby shot across in a red blur. Meanwhile, Yang and Blake were making short work of the grimm on the left of the square. Blake threw Gambol Shroud at a beowolf. The wolf managed to deflect it with its arm, losing two fingers in the process. Yang jumped up and grabbed Gambol Shroud out of the air. She ran towards the grimm as Blake tightened her grip. The beowolf swung at Yang as she approached, she dropped down and slid under the beowolf. She shoved Gambol Shroud into its stomach then landed a hard uppercut accented with a blast from Ember Celica. The beowolf flew into the air. Yang put her hands in position to give a boost and nodded at Blake. She jumped into Yang's hands and jumped again as Yang threw her up. Blake spun around in the air. She summoned a shadow clone to help her spin and gain momentum. She used Gambol Shroud to slam the grimm down into several other grimm that were gathered together. The impact sent several grim flying into the air. Blake began skillfully swinging Gambol Shroud, killing the grimm in the air. The grimm on the ground met a swift end by Yang's fists and Ember Celica.
"That trick never gets old" Yang said smiling.
On the other side of the square, Ruby and Weiss were quickly clearing out the remaining grimm. Weiss created several glyphs and was skillfully jumping from glyph to glyph, slicing and stabbing as she went. Ruby was using her semblance to avoid the grimm's attacks while striking with Crescent Rose. Several large ursas began approaching. Weiss took a knee and put the point of Myrtenaster on the ground and began to concentrate. One of the ursas lunged at her. Ruby was quick to cut its arm off with Crescent Rose, followed by its head. A large glyph appeared in front of Weiss and a large knight came out of it and began making quick work of the Grimm. Ruby stayed right by Weiss' side with Crescent Rose ready to defend her. Blake and Yang met Weiss' knight in the middle of the square.
Ruby gently patted Weiss' shoulder and said "it's all clear."
Weiss stood up as the knight disappeared.
"Great job team!" Ruby yelled as she raised one fist in the air "now, how about we go get a drink?"
"Ruby, you're nineteen" Yang said sternly "you can't drink."
"I can drink milk" Ruby said "and that café has great cookies."
"I could go for a cup of coffee" Weiss said.
"A cup of tea sounds great" Blake said.
"I hope they have Dr. Piper" Yang said as they walked to the café.
Yang looked back at the square and saw some of the grimm hadn't disintegrated.
"Hey" she said "shouldn't the grimm have evaporated by now?"
"What?" Ruby asked as she turned around.
There were several grimm still laying around, some were decapitated.
"This doesn't make sense" Weiss said.
The Vale police arrived and began to assist civilians and remove the bodies of the grimm.
"We need to examine one of those" Weiss said.
"I agree" Ruby said "it might mean they're evolving."
Weiss walked over to the officer overseeing the operation and said "Excuse me, Sir?"
"Ah, Miss Schnee" he said "how can I help you?"
"Could you have one of the grimm's bodies sent to the Schnee house here in Vale?" Weiss asked.
"Yes ma'am" he said "I'll have one of my officers deliver it and stay with it in case there is a problem."
"Thank you" Weiss said with a nod.
"It's the least I can do" the officer said.
Weiss rejoined the others as they walked into the café.
