(Start Chapter 5 10 years later)
A tale of the Chosen King and the Chosen Queen Saviors of the Stars
Noctis in the Kings Garb 10 years older as standing next to him was Ruby in her own royal garb as she too was 10 years older. They glared at their foe at the Crown City blocking there path to the citadel as it was large human like burning devil as Noctis and Ruby then charged forward as there teams plus team JNR charged head in all of which were wearing Kingsglaive uniforms.
This Devil they all faced in an attempt to beat it was known as Ifrit the Infernian as well as the Betrayer of the Astral beings. Team NIGP, RWBY, and JNR had all aged 10 whole years which meant 10 years to grow up and stronger. As they each went after Ifrit the Astral God released a burst of flames which set Noctis and Ruby's sloths on fire as they quickly began to stop drop and roll maneuver.
"Noct Ruby! Hang in there buddy!" Prompto said as he ran to Noct and began putting the fire out.
"I got you!" was heard as he ran over to Ruby and began to put the fire out on her as Yang fired at Ifrit with her prosthetic arm at full burst.
"Stay down you two we'll keep him busy." Prompto said as he and Jaune soon re-entered the fray.
"Noct over here!" Ignis called as with him was Weiss.
"Hurry, Ruby before Ifrit goes off again!" Weiss called as the two struggled a bit to get to their friend. Soon Gladiolus and Yang came behind Noctis and Yang before pushing them to Ignis and Weiss as they began to pile on the two.
"Incoming!" Nora called as she and Ren covered their friends as Jaune had his shield out to keep the fire away. Ifrit then burst out his flames the three teams protected the only two people able to put an end to all of this.
Once the flames died they got up as Ignis and Weiss gave their respected leaders a Hi-Potion to heal them as they charged forward to fight Ifrit.
(Start real story Vale Docks)
Team RWBY and NIGP were all suited up as Tai had come in to see her girls off as with them was a Corgi and Pryna as Pryna was in a kennel as the dog glowed showed her aura was active. "I can't believe it my girls are going off to another Kingdom for the Vytal Tournament." Tai said with manly tears in his eyes.
"Hey don't worry dad it's also a road trip for us so we get to enjoy all of Lucis." Yang said as they guys loaded the bags up.
"Well you all be sure to bring Zwei along with you." Tai said as Blake looked scared and shocked.
"Please don't." Blake said as she already had to deal with Pryna who was the good one in her opinion since the dog hardly bothers anyone unless she needs to go out, eat or just a little loving.
"Oh don't be a scaredy cat Blakie." Prompto joked as everyone even Ignis groaned at that while Yang and Tai laughed.
"Ok but Noct and Prompt." Tai began as he glared at the two with a serious expression. "I don't want any touching and most of all when you guys set up any camps males and ladies get separate tents." Tai warned as he glared. "If I arrive at Lucis and find one of the knocked up I don't care who you're both dead men." Tai threatened as Prompto got nervous there as Noctis didn't show it but Tai scared him a bit.
"No problems sir nothing will happen sir." Prompto said as he looked at Tai scared.
"Stop scaring him dad besides who's a better boy for Ruby then a prince!" Yang called as Ruby then blushed deep red at that comment.
"Yang!" Ruby called as she did not need that on her mind.
"We best board the vessel before it departs without us." Ignis said as he adjusted his glasses.
"Alright come on Zwei!" Ruby called as when Blake heard this she was immediately on Gladiolus head as the guys laughed at their friend for that. Zwei ran up the ramp as he caught up with Pryna and by the looks of it the two they were getting along swimmingly.
"Alright be careful you two." Tai said as Yang smiled.
"No problem dad won't be our first trip to Lucis." Yang said as the two teams entered the ship.
(Meanwhile with Cinder and her group)
"Ok we're here now what?" Roman asked Cinder and her two friends after they were able to smuggle Roman into Lucis.
"For now we acquire a temporary based of operations as we make our way to Insomnia, Ardyn claims he has a contact waiting for us at this place" Cinder said pulling out the paper.
"Great." Roman said as he hoped this would be worth it in the long run especially after they were able to smuggle the dust the stole as well.
"Emerald, Mercury keep your noses clean here we are in unknown grounds so it's best to be on our guard." Cinder said as Emerald nodded.
"So how many people can you pickpocket before your caught Emerald?" Mercury said as he heard people in Lucis are said to be immune to illusions.
"Don't tempt me." Emerald said as they can't afford to see if said rumor was true or not.
(Scene Break a week later Lucis Docks)
The boat after a week long journey had finally arrived at Lucis as they learned a few things, one never eat food together, and two never start a boat wide food fight because as of now they can never show their faces on that ship again. As Team RWBY and Team NIGP disembarked from the boat they were amazed at the Lucian city they docked at which was called Tidal Blue.
"Well here we are Lucis... now we just need to find our ride to Insomnia and start our road trip!" Yang called as she held a large portion of the bags with Gladiolus.
"Well from my dad's message he said the Kingsglaive would drop off a car for us to use so wheels shouldn't be a problem." Noctis said as he and Ruby held their own bags.
"Yeah but it looks like all of Lucis is preparing for the Vytal Festival." Weiss said as she noticed people getting ready for the festival as Lucis was hosting it for the first time.
"Well best we move on if I'm correct then the nearby Kingsglaive garrison should be a short walk from here." Ignis said as Prompto laughed.
"Well first we need to get the dogs first." Gladio said as Noctis had to agree there.
"Well then lead the way Iggy!" Prompto called as the Fox Faunus was just excited to head on home to Insomnia.
(Later at the Garrison)
After picking up the dogs Zwei and Pryna and a short 30 minute walk with Ruby practically bouncing around everywhere they soon arrived at the Glaives Garrison and after a short ID verification the Glaives brought in the car. Noctis at first thought it was the Regalia but noticed a few key differences which all summed up to one thing it looked like a combination between a van and the Regalia done right as it still had the convertible roof but it could also toe hence why it had a small trailer on the back no doubt for their luggage.
"I present the Regalia Type-II your father had this commissioned recently so it's pretty new at the moment so not everything will be 100% but it should provide for your transportation needs, your highness." The Glaives who drove it up said as Yang smiled.
"Well then I'll-" Yang began before Ignis cut her off.
"I'll be driving." He said heading over to the driver seat taking the keys. "My apologies Yang but I've seen and heard from your sister how you drive the Bumblebee I can't exactly trust you with the car." Ignis said as Yang pouted.
"Shot gun seat!" Weiss called as she ran to the shot gun seat as Gladiolus and Yang loaded the trailer with their luggage.
"Cool then the rest of us can party in the back seat." Prompto called as he got in the back seat. Once everyone was in the Regalia Type-II Ignis hit the ignition and began driving off.
"This is going to be awesome nothing can possibly go wrong!" Ruby called as she got in her seat all happy and ready for a road trip.
(Later on the Road)
"I take back everything I said!" Ruby said as she and the others were on the side of the open road with the car breaking down.
Gladiolus tried his hand at hitch-hiking but no dice. At least 3 cars have already past them. "Didn't you say the people of Lucis were very open minded Ignis?" Weiss asked as Ignis looked.
"We can only go so far on the kindness of strangers." Ignis said as Weiss was holding the map since their Scrolls had no signal.
"Well I think we can forget about hitching our way there." Gladiolus said as Noctis was sitting behind the Regalia while Prompto was sprawled on the ground.
"Well looks like we're pushing her to the nearest outpost." Yang said as Blake sighed.
"I've already pushed myself to the brink of death." Prompto said as the heat was murder on them.
"Come on you four get up this car isn't going to move itself." Gladiolus said causing Ruby, Noctis, and Prompto to get up.
"So much for an exciting start of our road trip." Blake said while reading a book before closing said book and getting up.
"I thought the Car was supposed to move us." Ruby said as she and Noctis were on the left side ready to push while Prompto and Blake took the right with Yang and Gladiolus pushing from behind.
"Wouldn't that be nice?" Noctis said as Gladiolus looked.
"Can it, ready steady... PUSH!" Gladiolus called as they began pushing the car which was on neutral.
A series of grunts and complaints followed before the car and trailer moved...slowly. Nearby wildlife was moving faster than them.
*Insert Final Fantasy XV OST: Stand by Me by Florence and the Machines
"Un...believable..." Noctis grunted.
"Not exactly a fairy tale beginning, eh Prince Noctis!?" Yang joked.
"Save some breath for pushing." Ignis said as he rested in the driver's seat.
"Though we all let ourselves, get carried away." Weiss said as she read the map to see where the closest outpost was.
"Look these things happen." Prompto said as he pushed the car.
"Like the Food Fight on the boat?" Blake asked as that was one boat they could never show their faces at again.
"Let's just hope this isn't something sort of omen!" Gladiolus called as Yang snickered.
"Yeah at least we kick this trip off with a Yang!" Yang called as everyone groaned except for Prompto who laughed.
"Gladio Yang do us a favor." Noctis began as Gladiolus looked as did Yang.
"What?" Gladiolus asked as Ruby finished.
"Push this by yourselves." Ruby said as that was shocking.
"Please tell me you guys are joking!" Yang said knowing she may be strong but this car was heavier then it looked.
"You won't even notice if we just let go." Prompto said as Gladiolus glared.
"Prompto don't even think about it." Gladiolus said as Yang looked to Ruby.
"Same to you Ruby!" Yang called as this was a struggle for them.
"Save your strength people we'll need it to reach the Outpost." Weiss said as Noctis looked.
"Come on Ignis time to switch." Noctis called as Ruby jumped in.
"Yeah same here Weiss!" Ruby called as they needed to catch their breath.
"You can literally lift it with your semblance!" Noctis pointed out.
"And stress myself out?" Yang asked as she knew she could do it.
"We're already stressed!" Ruby called as this was not a good start to a road trip.
"My hands are killing me." Prompto complained as Gladiolus looked at him unamused.
"Rather I kill you with mine!?" Gladiolus called as Prompto knew he was on a mine field.
"Easy there tough guy." Prompto called as the two teams pushed the car. "Hey Iggy how's the Signal?" Prompto asked as Ignis looked.
"Still busy hence why Weiss has the map." Ignis said as Prompto sighed before realizing something.
"Wait hold the phone... is it just me or was it supposed to be way closer?" Prompto asked as he looked to Weiss.
"I assure your Prompto the map is correct." Weiss said as Prompto wasn't convinced nor was Yang.
"Literally next door." Yang complained.
"Yeah...on a map of the entire world."
"Remnant is a big old place." Noctis said as Ignis chuckled.
"Yes one filled with mysteries and wonders." Ignis said as Prompto moaned in annoyance.
"Tell that to my legs." Prompto said as everyone pushed the car to its destination.
"You all even pushing." Gladiolus asked as Yang glared.
"Hard as I can." Prompto said as he pushed with Blake.
"Everything I got." Noctis said as Ruby quipped in.
"Yeah why do we need to push something so big?" Ruby asked as she pushed with them.
"It is difficult." Blake said as Pryna and Zwei looked at her from the window making her queasy.
"Hey ask my fist." Yang said before she punched Gladio causing him to yelp in pain.
*End OST
(Scene Break Hammer Head Vytal)
*Insert Final Fantasy XV OST Hammerhead theme
The group finally arrived at one of the Hammerheads around Lucis as they were all catching their breaths while Ruby was using her hood as mobile shade which she kept held up with Crescent Rose, Versus XIII, Mystranger, and Gambol Shroud. As they all waited for the mechanic to show up Weiss was in the shade made by Ruby with Blake and Ruby as she was applying some much needed sun block as the Atlas born Huntress would rather not burn up on this little road trip.
The guys were hanging by the car waiting for the mechanic, as when they gotten a signal on their scrolls, they call in ahead and hope to get the car repair soon as possible when they show up, but they took very long to see get to the Outpost.
Soon enough as a short blonde hair girl with a bit of grease on her face, wearing short shorts showing a bit of under booty, with a tool belt, tall cowgirl boots, an open yellow jacket that showing off a red bar she has on and as well showing off her asset, and a red hat on her head.
When Prompto hear those foot step coming up and turn his head to see who walking to them, his eyes almost pop and stood up quickly as the girl walk up and said, "Hey there, y'all kept a girl waitin'."
When team RWBY hear the girl come up, reaction are show fast as Weiss looked at the girl and saw her state of wear and said, "What is she wearing, it's like giving the impression of… prostitute."
Blake looked at the girl and said, "Doesn't seem that bad, consider where she is working at." Also Blake is sort of regretting of wearing dark clothing in the middle of a hot desert, she had to take off most of her top wears, and open a few buttons so she didn't get sick, as also like a cat she can't stand the heat too long or else she would get sick and that would not help anyone, she had to keep her mind off being sick… and the dogs that were looking at her as she help push the car up the outpost.
When Ruby was looking at her as she came up checking out the car as had a thought and said out loud, "She almost dress up like Yang sometimes when it gets hot in the summer at home. Right Yang? Yang?"
Ruby turn to her sister as she wasn't answering her and she saw her sister giving a stink eye look at the girl, as the girl have a similar color theme as her, even the blonde hair color closely matches, as sure she showing off her breast more than Yang and she has short-shorts while Yang wears a black shorts with a skirt around it, but that not what ticking her off.
Yang was also looking at Prompto who is also checking out the girl as well, having that smile on his face and similar look in his eyes when he first saw Yang.
Back to the girl and team NIGP, the girl look around at the visible guys around as she asked, "So which one's prince?"
Noctis stood up and walk around to where the girl was at as she said, "Aha!"
The girl walk to him as she said, "Hello, Your Highness. Welcome back to Lucis. I read the news you went to that Beacon place in the Vale kingdom."
"Yeah learned a few new things, and took on some White Fang loyalists." Noctis said as he looked and saw some Faunus helping with car repairs on another vehicle while another was getting the Regalia type-II equipment ready for repairs.
"Prince Noctis Huntsman of Remnant makes the trip to this coastal outpost from Hammerhead worth it." The lady said as she smiled at the group.
"Apologies for taking so long." Ignis said as the girl looked and saw the four huntresses there.
"You best save your apologies for Paw-paw." The lady said as she gave the car a look over.
"So that makes you?" Blake began as she was curios.
"Cindy, Cids grease monkey granddaughter." Cindy said before noticing the Huntresses. "So who are them ladies?" She asked as everyone looked to the girls.
"Oh these are some friend we made in Vale." Noctis began as Ruby ran up to her in a flurry of rose pedals smiling.
"I'm Ruby Rose and that's my partner Weiss and the silent girl there is Blake and she's partner to my older half-sister Yang." Ruby said as Cindy smiled at how adorable Ruby was.
"Aaah ain't ya just the sweetest little thang. I can just roll you up and eat y'all up." Cindy said gushing at Ruby before a new voice was heard.
"Roll 'er in while I'm still young!" Came an old voice as everyone looked and saw an old timer.
"I guess that's 'Paw-paw,' huh?" Yang joked to see an old timer with a red leather jacket, a blue t-shirt, a red ball cap, and blue jeans walk in with fingerless gloves on as he looked over the Regalia Type-II.
"Yeah I am. And Prince didn't yer daddy tell ya? She's a custom made classic only one of her kind." Cid said as the bearded old man looked at the car. "Yer daddy had this girl made for team STRQ a while back when he made friends with Qrow and Ozpin after Blondie there was born." Cid said as that was surprising before he looked at Noctis and Ruby. "Prince Noctis and Ruby Rose." Cid said as he looked at the two.
"Yeah." Noctis said as Cid looked at the Regalia.
"Well looks like she's been waiting for a while and now it's like they kicked the snot out of STRQ." Cid said as he looked at the car.
"Uh can you back up to how you knew our parents." Yang said as Weiss quickly shushed Yang.
"You got yer ma's eyes there Ruby and let me tell y'all you two got a long way to go and those slack jaws gettin you nowhere fast." Cid said as he assessed the damage. "She's gonna take a while. Y'all get her in and run along." Cid said before he went to the workshop to fix the car.
Cindy saw this and sighed as in a way this car was meant for Team STRQ and their friends ironic there kids got it instead. "Y'all heard him! Let's get movin.' Right this way." Cindy called as the two teams started getting the car to the work shop and detached the trailer with their luggage as Pryna and Zwei got out to do their business.
Once the car was in the work shop and the trailer secured in a safe location the two teams gathered. "Ok now we play the waiting game." Weiss said as Prompto sighed.
"Never liked that game." Prompt said as they started taking there leave.
"Same here." Yang said as she knew she was a better grease monkey then Cindy.
"Never really been good at it either Prompto." Noctis said as a joke as Ruby agreed.
"You neither Yang." Ruby said as Yang glared as everyone laughed.
"Hey don't Yang my puns." Yang joked killing everyone's joy.
"Thanks for ruining it Yang." Weiss complained before Zwei and Pryna returned as they ran around a bit clearly getting along as Blake tried to avoid the two dogs.
The two teams together as Noctis started to say, "So, what should we do now that we're going to be here for a while?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to go really far out anywhere, I will say relax and find a place they sell cold drinks," Weiss said as she not the biggest fan of the desert area as Blake nods as she could go for a cold water… and maybe a tuna salad sandwich and said, "I'll join you."
"Then we'll join you ladies later then, as now for me I need to find a store of sort as we seem to be running low on supplies for some reason when I checked on inventory." Ignis said as Gladiolus spoken up saying, "I come with. I need some potions or maybe eithers we low on those."
"You think you can look for repair kits as well, I forgot to bring mine" Ruby asked them as they nodded and soon enough those four and Pryna with her owner left to do their things and hope they can fine what they are looking for, while Zwei staying by Ruby on his rear end and with its tongue sticking out.
Yang thought for a moment and said, "I don't know about you guys, but I'm not going to sit around doing nothing. How about we explore a bit?"
Ruby look to her sister as she said, "How can we, we don't have a local map in case we get lost. Remember what happen when we first came here in Insomnia? We got separated from dad and uncle crow, and we couldn't remember where the hotel we were staying at?"
Noctis gave a small laugh and said, "I think I remember that. You two wonder into the palace on accident and you were crying in the middle of the halls."
"I was not crying, I had dust in my eyes," Ruby said as Prompto and Yang laugh at that thought, as the older sister whisper to the fox Faunus, "She was so cute when she was crying, and then mister prince charming came along and help her and you should have seen her reaction when she meet him."
Cindy walk over to them and said, "Hey couldn't help but over hear y'all guys. Y'all ain't never been out this way before, have ya? Go on, have a look around. Also you take this, this'll make sure y'all don't get lost."
Cindy handed them a map around as Noctis took it and said, "Thanks."
Cindy nod as she titled her hat down and soon walk off away, as Prompto watch her go, watching the hot grease monkey granddaughter sway her hip side to side, as he was focus on her rear end, he didn't see Yang reaching out to him, grab his fox ear, and yank on it as he said, "Ow-ow-ow!"
"No eyeing." Yang warned as Prompt o laughed nervously.
"You buried yourself there Prompto." Noctis joked as Prompto was soon let go as everyone began to explore a bit. They soon arrived at a camping supply shop as Prompto looked around. "Hey they got Ebony here! Ignis and Blake are going to flip." Prompto said as Yang checked it out as both knew that was the two favorite brand of coffee.
Soon Weiss, Blake, and Pryna returned as Weiss was in shock while Blake was snickering into her mouth. "What happened to you?" Gladio asked as Weiss looked.
"First question... what is Gil?" Weiss began as Ignis spoke up.
"It is the currency used in Lucis any particular reason why you ask?" Ignis asked as Weiss eyes twitched.
"Because I just learned that Lien is completely worthless in Lucis." Weiss said as Blake snickered.
"Plus she did make a scene and if it wasn't for me she would have been recognized as a Schnee." Blake said as Weiss glared.
"Don't patronize me." Weiss argued as Prompto looked shocked.
"So our money is no good here?" Prompto asked seeing as he had a wallet full of Lien and not Gill.
"Bet you Ignis came prepared." Noctis said as Ignis then sighed.
"Unfortunately we are severely lacking in funds save for Room and Board which is now going into car repairs." Of his said as Yang looked.
"So we're stuck here?!" Yang called as Gladiou spoke up.
"Less we come up with the money we're flat broke." Gladiolus said as that wasn't good.
"I suggest we confer with Cindy to discuss a sort of payment plan." Ignis said as this was bad.
"Well this royally sucks." Yang said making everyone groan at her pun.
"Broken down and flat broke." Prompto said as Weiss felt hollow seeing as she was never broke before especially in Lucis who aren't exactly on good terms with the SDC.
"Adding insult to injury." Ignis said as this was a bad state they were in.
"Old man's in for both after charging us that much." Gladiolus said as this was a bad situation they were in.
"Yeah let's pay him a visit." Noctis said as Yang agreed.
"I'll give Ruby a heads up on our current money problem." Yang said as she had to let Ruby know of this.
When the group got back to Cindy Ruby had Crescent Rose out with a chicken on the end of it as Zwei tried to jump for it as Pryna arrived with Weiss and enjoyed the view. "She ain't gon' be ready for a while. Y'all need somethin?" Cindy asked as she looked to the group.
"What we're broke!?" Ruby called as Noctis sighed.
"Hate to ask but could we borrow some cash?" Noctis said as he and Cindy sweat drop at Ruby's outburst.
"Oh now I get it. This is what paw-paw meant when he said he was gonna teach them kids a lessons." Cindy said as everyone was shocked at this as it sounded like Cid saw this coming. "Told me he oughta have y'all take care of some ornery varmints that've been causin' a ruckes round here." Cindy said as Ruby then ran in.
"Wait like a Huntsman or Hundreds mission!?" Ruby asked appearing in a flurry of rose pedals.
"That's right I'd be happy to pay y'all for your services if your up to the challenge how bout it?" Cindy asked as Ruby was all smiles.
"Hellz yeah!" Ruby called out as the road trip just got better as she just accepted a mission it they won't be shadowing a Huntsman or Hundreds.
"All according to Cid's plan. I say we play along and teach him not to underestimate any of us." Ignis said as Weiss nodded.
"Yes he messed with the wrong teams today." Weiss said as she was ready to hunt.
"Alright but don't go running around after dark people say they saw Grimm and Daemons run around but I think it may be old Dead Eye running around." Cindy said as there hasn't been much Grimm in Lucia since the kingdom appeared and the Daemons haven't shown hide or hair of being here. "Here this should be enough to get y'all a place to stay but just between us don't tell paw-paw." Cindy said as she handed them all some Gill to use.
"Well looks like you're a pauper prince now huh?" Weiss joked as Yang smirked as Weiss just left herself wide open.
"Doesn't that make you a pauper heiress also?" Noctis countered as Yang and Prompto burst out laughing.
"Anyway we have the information on these alleged pests on our scrolls it appears there are three sets of them in three different areas. I'd suggest we split up and located these annoyances." Ignis said as everyone checked out there scrolls and saw the marked areas on the scrolls maps.
"Ok that's helpful." Weiss said as Noctis looked.
"So what's the plan Iggy?" Noctis asked as Ignis looked.
"It would be for the best to split up into two teams to handle two different pest control problems then we'll meet up at the third area and go for the kill. Divide and conquer as it were." Ignis explained as Weiss looked.
"That sounds like a good idea." Weiss said as Pryna stood next to Weiss.
"Ok then lets starts hunting." Noctis said as Ruby cheered.
"Alright! Weiss, Yang, Blade, Iggy, Gladio, and Prompto of set out on their first official huntsman and huntresses with their fearless leaders Ruby and Noctis. Banzai!" Ruby called as her team formed up on her.
"BANZAI!" They called as Weiss used her glyphs to push them with Team NIGP.
"Oh what the hell." Noctis began as his team smirked.
"Banzai!" The guys called with the girls as they then leaned to the side a bit for that.
The two teams then left the area as they began making their way to the designated location where the Creatures were located as RWBY went to the one farther ahead. NIGP arrived at the closest ones as they caught sight of the target. "Looks like we found our first targets. Ready Noct?" Ignis asked as Noctis smirked.
"Yeah I am." Noctis said as Ignis nodded.
"Hopefully the ladies are handling there chosen target area well." Ignis said as Noctis then warped strike torts the enemy as the battle soon began for the group.
*Insert Final Fantasy XV OST Stand your Ground
Noctis began his attack with the Engine Sword as Prompto used his Photobooth in its guns mode and began firing at the scorpion like creatures with as Ignis assisted with his twin daggers. Noctis of course switched to a spear weapon and jumped up from a rock where he then skewered a giant scorpion with said it before he switched to his claymore and slammed it down upon another.
Prompto open fire on the giant scorpions damaging them somewhat with Gladiolus coming in with is claymore and cut one of the scorpion's pincers off fast as he could before it could strike, as the fox Faunus unload his rounds into that same one killing it dead before he stop and said, "Can it get anymore dead?"
Ignis dodge the scorpion stinger, as he cut at it with his dagger with ease, the stinger soon fell off as the scorpion scream in pain before Ignis throw one of his dagger into one of its eyes and kick at it killing it.
Noctis came up to attack another one, but came at him fast as he dodge it just in time as he got to feet, he throw his sword at the scorpion as he warp in and slash at it quickly change weapon to his claymore and finish it off fast.
Ignis fix his glasses really quick as he said, "Excellent work. On we go and meet up with team RWBY, hopefully they did their part."
(Team RWBY During the same time as them)
A stream of rose petals flew across the desert grounds as Ruby took her position on a high rock and open fire on the scorpion grouping them together better as she call out, "Lemon snow cone!"
Weiss and Yang came together as Weiss summon a glyph and Yang fire rounds throw it, as a spread shot came all over the giant scorpions as when the shot hit them, ice grow around them making parts of them getting stuck in place like their stingers, tails, or legs.
Ruby jump down and call out the next attack combo, "Black Rose!"
Black toss Ruby her weapon as she held onto the ribbon part of it as Ruby grab her weapon, Ruby has her weapon in scythe mode as she ran while fire a round behind her accelerate her movement fast with her semblance, as Ruby quickly change her scythe into a war scythe to get a good degree cut as she cut through two of them, killing them with ease.
Ruby let go a go Blake's weapon and skid on the ground using her scythe to slow herself as the other scorpion broke out of the ice they were in and attack the group.
Ruby smiled as these punks were easy plus no forest to burn down in order to take them down. Ruby swung crescent rose around using the gun part to increase her swinging speed. As Ruby cut one in two Yang graves a Scorpion by the tail and swung it upward before she gave it an uppercut as it fell down sending it upward again. Yang then punched it down cracking its shell and causing it to splatter clearly dead.
Weiss used her rapier and stabbed forward as she froze a few of the Scorpions in place as she then stabbed one in the face. "Hey Weiss-cream you can summon a full grown Nevermore right?" Yang asked as she grabbed two scorpions by their tails and slammed them together.
"Yeah I have been improving after all." Weiss said as she slashed through some more Scorpions.
"Well since we're calling your Knight Odin why not name that Nevermore Valefor." Yang called as she jumped up and sent shotgun blasts at the Scorpions.
"Yang you can't expect me to name all of my summoning's!" Weiss countered as she used her Glyphs to freeze multiple Scorpions.
"Oh come on Weiss it's a cool name!" Ruby butted in sending Sniper Shots at the Scorpions. "Besides it'll help us in the long run if we want to surprise an opponent." Ruby called as Blake looked.
"She's not wrong!" Blake called using her Semblance to avoid a Scorpion attack.
"Ok then lets finish this RWBY ROSE!" Ruby called as they went for the climax. Weiss summoned a glyph which Ruby then had Crescent Rose in its gun form as both she and Yang fired into it destroying multiple enemies at once between them before Yang grabbed the Ribbon on Blake's Gambol Shroud and swung her torts then last few Scorpions killing many of them at once using both blades of her weapon.
*end OST
Yang then smiled and started humming a song as it sounded like a Victory Fanfare as Blake chuckled. "To early Yang we still got one more group to deal with." Blake said as Yang shrugged.
"Let's go Team RWBY we still got one more set of baddies to deal with!" Ruby called as she raised her hand upward with a cheer.
"Alright!" Yang called out punching her fists together.
"Fine." Weiss said as the team then headed out to meet up with their friends.
(Later at the last group of Scorpions)
Team NIGP arrived around the same time as Team RWBY as they saw the group from a hidden part. "There aware there being hunted." Blake said quietly as Ignis agreed.
"Yes best to strike them by blind siding them." Ignis said as Noctis and Ruby smirked knowing it was right up there ally
"We got it." Noctis said as soon Ruby vanished in a flurry of Rose Pedals just before Noctis warped behind a Scorpion where Versus XIII landed and strikes it from behind just as Ruby did the same with her Semblance as now it was on once more.
After the duo's attack the scorpion scatter around in multiple area the field as the team break off as well with different partners as well.
Ignis and Weiss, Prompto and Yang, Gladiolus and Blake, and lastly with the already pair duo Noctis and Ruby.
(Ignis and Weiss)
Ignis and Weiss stood in the middle of the few scorpions they went after and they got surrounded fast as Ignis said, "I don't have a recipe for scorpion but I think I can think one of fast."
Weiss look to her love interest and said, "You not really going too-
"Of Course not, it just in the end of a fight I would say it for fun," Ignis said as he summon forth a dagger as he grab Weiss by her arm and swing her around as a scorpion came up at her and about to sting her, but Ignis got just in time before he cut off the stringer as it scream out before Weiss stab it in its head as Ignis said, "It's also about having good timing to say it, but now that I think about it, scorpion are not the perfect things to cook."
"Why is that?" Weiss asked as Ignis pointed to her weapon and said, "Scorpion shish kebab, are not a good meal to eat."
Weiss pull out fast as Ignis took her again moving out of the way of another scorpion that came up beside them as Weiss said, "I think I prefer more of something else as well."
Another scorpion came from behind Ignis and the 2nd one behind Weiss as they both side step to the left and went forward with their weapons.
Ignis summon forth his other dagger and using his skill to move around the scorpion before cutting its tail off and stab it down in the middle of its body.
Weiss using her dancing like skills and her glyphs, as she dash and spin around with her rapier weapon, slashing at the scorpion and cut one side of its legs off before stabbing at the side of its body.
The scorpions died as they twitch for a moment before lying motionless as the two held their weapon out as Ignis said, "I know a few other good recipes for other things if you wanted to try them."
Weiss turn to him and said, "Such a gentleman, of course I would love too."
Ignis put away his dagger and said, "Let check up on the others shall we?" Push his glasses up before headed off with Weiss following him.
(Gladiolus and Blake)
Gladiolus roared out as he slammed his Claymore onto a Scorpion and with a second swing killed it as Blake then landed on Gladiolus weapon and using the momentum swung Blake at a Scorpion a bit away. The monster saw it and in turn Blake used her Semblance and avoided the attack before she cut it in two before shifting her sword to its gun form and threw it torts Gladiolus. Gladio then began to swing Blake to the side before he let the weapon go as Blake then used her weapon like a sickle and send Gambol Shroud straight at a monster stabbing into it before pulling herself torts it.
Once that was done Blake then grabbed her sword in gun form and did a spin fire as she fired at multiple Scorpions at once. "Why does that remind me of something?" Gladiolus asked as Blake blushed as she realized that whole moment was an erotic scene from Ninjas of Love except in the book the samurai and Kounichi were, naked after making some hot steamy music.
"Shut up Gladio how about the fact Sun's cousin is dating Iris." Blake jabbed as Gladiolus gasped.
"Gauh don't make me think of that!" Gladiolus called out covering his ears.
Blake smirked as she fired at a Scorpion before cutting ones tail off before stabbing her sheath into one. She then sheathed her weapon before pulling the bladed sheath out.
"Too late." Blake jabbed as Gladiolus then swung his weapon at more of them. "But compared to a Death Stalker these guys are kid leagues." Blake said as Gladiolus smirked.
"Imagine finding a whole nest now that stings." Gladiolus said as Blake smiled a bit to that joke even if it was a bad one.
Soon the two saw Yang and Prompto run by as Yang was sending shot gun blasts from Ember Celica while Prompto fired at the Scorpions.
(With Yang and Prompto)
"Ryeahh!" Yang roared out as she used Ember Celica to launch herself upward and slam her fists into the back of one causing it to splatter before she grabbed its tail and used it's corpse as a bat while hitting the Monsters.
"One, and two, and there's three." Prompto called as he was firing a revolver. "Next is four, then five, and now six!" Prompto called out now put of ammo before he switched to an assault rifle and began firing controlled short bursts at the Scorpions.
"Hey heads up!" Yang called as she send her dead bat at Prompto who ducked allowing Prompto the chance to fire at the Scorpions who was hit.
"Hey Yang you ok you seem ticked." Prompto asked as he looked to Yang.
"Never better!" Yang snapped as her eyes were red.
"Come on Yang what's your problem?" Prompto called as she glared at the Fox Rain is.
"Nothing I don't have a problem its Cindy who has the problem!" Yang yelled as she punched a Scorpion as Prompto switched to Photobooth and fired at the creatures.
"Really!? You're jealous?!" Prompto called as Ruby winced from her spot.
"He should not have said that." Ruby said as Prompto shivered.
"WHO THE FUCK IS JEALOUS!" She roared causing an explosion as Prompto began running as they deal with their group to which Yang grabbed the corpse and began chasing Prompto who was screaming bloody murder as he tried to avoid a royal beat down.
"I'm sorry!" Prompto repeated like a scared broken record as he ran like he just pissed off Titan which is never a good sign since Titan at times was considered a Gentle Giant.
"We need to finish up before the last of them escape," Noctis said as seeing if Prompto get beaten half to death to be fun or not, they have their priority as Ruby nodded, as the last scorpion try to make a run for it, Noctis and Ruby went at them in a blink of an eye.
A ruby appeared in front of them with her semblance, and Noctis came from behind in a warp. Ruby had her weapon in sniper mode, and unloaded many rounds into them, with Noctis slashing and warping around the scorpions cutting different parts off as they drop like flies and lay dead as the duo gotten the last one.
After a breathing moment from the duo, they walk up to each other as Ruby said, "That was great we should try making up names for our attack combos sometimes."
"Let's not get ahead with that, this was just a job to do and we were just teaming up for it this time," Noctis said as Ruby had a pout face and said, "Why not, it could be fun?"
Noctis sighed and then he said, "Not many formed teams, team up with each other for things other than maybe for hunting jobs and we not really going to do this often. We can't even really use any formation teams attack in the tournament sense it just single teams, and we would be most likely facing each other if it ever get to that point."
Ruby thought for a moment when had a sad face on her as she said, "Alright… I just thought it could be cool."
Noctis look at ruby for the moment and he hated when she put on a sad face, so he put a hand on her shoulder and said, "Maybe another time around after the tournament."
Ruby look up to Noctis and with a small smile as she said to him, "That would be… alright I guess."
Noctis smile as well as they stood there in the moment until came running by, screaming.
"AhhhhHHH-! Hu?" Prompto said as he stop for a moment to see Noctis and ruby standing by each other with smile on their faces and Noctis have a hand on her shoulder as he wanted to take a quick photo of that, until Yang came up and smack him with the dead scorpion, as Yang stop in her movement and said, "Hu? Why did you stop?"
Yang turn her head and saw the two as she went, "Aw." her eyes turn back to normal and her hair went back to her normal yellow shade.
"I think I hear wedding bells. Or that could be the concussion." Prompto said as he was knocked down by said smack as he began getting up. "Nope definitely wedding bells." Prompto said as Yang gushed.
"SO CUTE!" Yang gushed as Noctis and Ruby heard the two before they began to blush and step aside with Noctis scratching the back of his head with Ruby poking her fingers together.
"Well I guess that's mission complete." Gladiolus said as he walked over to the others with Blake.
"Hopefully this will aid in acquiring the funds." Ignis said as Weiss really wanted to get back into her comfort zone.
"Yeah this heat is killing me though." Weiss complained as being from Atlas she wasn't used to the hot heat of this part of Lucis.
Soon the sound of Noctis Scroll was heard as Noctis answered it in confusion. "Who could this be?" Noctis asked as he hoped it wasn't Tai as Zwei ran around the group having been hiding somewhere. "Hello?" Noctis asked and was met with Cindy's voice.
"Hey, it's Cindy. How goes the hunting?" Cindy asked over the phone as Ruby saw who it was.
"Actually, we just finished." Noctis said as Cindy saw that was good news.
"That's great, 'cause I got one more hunt for y'all. Only this time it's for a person. Fella named Dave went off and the people around here haven't heard from him since. Reckon he staked out a spot in an old shack nearby." Cindy said as Blake and Ruby looked and saw the mentioned Shack as Noctis looked around for it.
"Old Shack?" Noctis asked as he looked around only for Ruby to grab his sleeve and point to said shack as Noctis saw it. "Oh got it we'll take a look." Noctis said as he then hung up and put his Scroll away.
"So what did Cindy Say?" Weiss asked as Noctis looked to her as they group began to follow him to the shack.
"Needs us to find some 'Dave,' guy." Noctis said as Gladiolus looked.
"He went missing?" Gladiolus asked as Ruby looked.
"No not missing more like barricaded inside that old shack." Ruby said as she was right next to Noctis as he was on the phone with Cindy.
"Ah a Huntsman's job is never done." Yang said as she threw the dead scorpion with the others as Blake smiled.
"Let's hurry the scent of those Scorpions corpses is killing me and will probably attract predators." Blake said as the Prompto had already cared out some useful stuff for later from them.
It wasn't long before they arrived at the large shack as Ruby and Noctis lead the charge and found the place was empty save for a table with a paper on it.
Ignis saw a Food spot and took a short moment to gather up some ingredients for later use as it would be useful in the long run. "Well we're here but no Dave." Yang said as Noctis looked at the table.
"Hey what's this?" Ruby called as she looked at said papers as she and Noctis picked it up.
Mutant Duelhorn Sighting (Bold)
Codename: Bloodhorn
Characteristics: Red Tusks, extremely violent
Outstanding on Sabertusks in the area.
"Hey guys we might be able to earn some more money with these bounties." Ruby called only to hear growling like an animal as Zwei and Pryna began to growl.
"Noct Ruby!" Ignis called as soon to their shock as pack of dog like creatures called Sabertusks ran in as Gladiolus used his Claymore to keep one off as Weiss used her Glyphs to keep them out away while Blake used her Semblance to avoid them and Yang punched one sending it flying out.
"Get out of here!" Prompto called as he fired at one which pounced Noctis and Ruby saw one about to pounce her. But before she could grab Crescent Rose Blake fired her gun at it before Prompto fired both of them killing the monsters.
"You ok?" Ignis asked as Ruby was shocked.
"Not yet those things are pack animals!" Ruby said pulling out Crescent Rose.
"She's right here they come!" Ignis called as they soon began to run into the Shack.
"I'm going all out!" Noctis called as he began using Versus XIII and slashed at the approaching Monsters as Ruby swung her Scythe but to her shock her Scythe got caught on a wooden beam causing her to spin around but quickly used it to kick the Monsters in the face.
"Guys this area is too small for us to fight in we need more room!" Ruby called as Ignis looked.
"She's right everyone vacate the shack now!" Ignis called as the two teams ran out of the shack with the pack animals chasing after them.
"Dogs these things are like dogs." Blake cursed as Yang smirked.
"Yeah but these ones you can kill and not get in trouble for it!" Yang called as Blake then smirked as she was waiting for this day.
The two teams then began the fight as they noticed it was a small pack probably a sort of scout group but seeing as it was a small group they dealt with this pack of Sabertusks accordingly as with a few shotgun blasts from Yang the Sabertusks were dealt with accordingly. "Didn't know what hit them." Prompto said with a grin on her face at their victory.
"None the worse for wear though." Weiss said as she was happy they made it out of the ambush.
"Bring on the next one!" Yang called as she punched her fists together.
Soon Gladiolus saw another shack as did Blake as Gladiolus voiced it. "Hey what about the shack over there." Gladiolus said pointing out the smaller shack across the road of dirt.
"Oh..." Ruby said as she didn't realize it was over there.
"I think there's a man there also." Blake said as she and Prompto were both surprised their senses missed that.
As they ran over to it they saw another pack of Sabertusks there as Weiss cursed their luck knowing they had to take care of them before getting to Dave. "Wait not yet I have a plan!" Ignis called as he already formulated a plan.
"Ok shoot." Ruby said as Ignis looked.
"We'll need to make short work of these foes so Noct see that windmill there?" Ignis asked as he pointed the Windmill out. "Warp there, Weiss use your Time Dilution Dust to increase Ms. Roses' Semblance and natural speed then Ms. Rose you will use that speed and silently take down as many of those Sabertusks as you can while Noctis provides a surprise attack on these creatures. Once they are caught off guard then we'll go in for the kill." Ignis explained as everyone got the plan.
"Ok no problem." Noctis said as Weiss saw this.
"Seems easy enough." Weiss said as everyone knew the plan now.
"Ok then let's go!" Ruby called as she smiled and got Crescent Rose ready.
Noctis then sent a warp sword to the Windmill just as Weiss began the Time Dilution as in turn Ruby's speed was increased. Once Noctis was in position Ruby moved as when she did and used her Semblance to their shock Ruby knocked all of them down with a gust of wind as she used Crescent Rose to hit as many of the Sabertusks as she could.
Soon as the Sabertusks saw their numbers fall to some force of wind Noctis came in and strike stabbing on in the back before the two Leaders began to fight the Monsters. "Ok move now!" Ignis called out as the rest of team NIGP And RWBY charged in head first and began fighting their way through the Sabertusks as it wasn't very long till they were thoroughly dealt with.
"We all good?" Gladiolus asked as Prompto smiled.
"Better than good." Prompto said as Yang smiled.
"Wow specs your plan really went off as smoothly as a Yang." Yang joked as everyone groaned with Prompto laughing and Ignis rubbing his eyes no doubt finding the joke quiet dreadful.
Once the problem was dealt with they soon heard the door of the shack open as from it Dave was heard. "Hey, who's out there?" The man said as he walked out.
"Well look whose here the man of our quest." Yang joked as Gladiolus pushed Yang a bit for that one.
"Dave right? Been looking for you." Gladiolus said as he looked to Dave.
"Didn't mean to cause y'all any trouble. Been stuck here on account of a sprained ankle. Somethin' funny 'bout them varmints. I gave 'em hell, but couldn't finish the job. Still one mean mutt about." Dave said holding his leg which no doubt had the sprained ankle. "Y'all don't look like hunters from 'round here, but whaddaya say? Put that puppy to rest for me?" Dave asked as Noctis thought about it as he looked to the teams knowing they could use the Gil for their trip.
"Sure, we'll do it. Well for the right price." Noctis said as he knew Huntsman and Huntresses normally get hired to hunt down certain beasts.
Dave of course understood since this was supposed to be his job but since he couldn't finish it, it seemed fair the guys helping him got the reward for it. "Y'all got guts, that's for sure. Let me tell ya where I last saw him." Dave said as Ignis began to download the data from Dave's scroll of their new quarries location.
The group then began making their way to the Dualhorns location and normally Ignis would have had them rest up and gather their strength considering the Monster in question is quiet formidable. But since they have two teams for the price of one it shouldn't be much of a problem for them.
"The Hunters are out in full force today." Gladiolus said as that sound made Blake worried a bit.
"Well of course Lucis is hosting the Vytal Festival for the first time in this new cycle so it's only fair the Hunters are doing their best to help the foreign visitors and guests have an excellent stay during the festivities and the Tournament itself." Ignis said as Weiss looked.
"Yes and though I am representing Vale in the tournament I will do my absolute best to put a good image for the good people of Atlas that we aren't like the Neiflhiem Empire on Eos." Weiss said as she remembered hearing the others talk about said empire.
"Yeah kind of hard after the, oh so great introduction Atlas had with Lucis when Atlas came to meet with my dad with mechs." Noctis said as Weiss wanted to counter but she had nothing to show for it.
"Ok you got me there not one of our best meet and greets." Weiss said as Ignis smirked.
"Well hopefully the Vytal Festival will fix that mistake a bit." Ignis said as they walked.
The two teams soon arrived at an old pipe area in a mountain spot and heard roars of pain as they looked and saw the Duelhorn with red Horns. "Over there! That's it right?" Prompto asked as Blake was surprised.
"That's a Duelhorn?" Blake asked as she had never seen one before.
"Yes but not your run-of-the-mill breed. We'd best make quick work of it." Ignis said as they began heading torts it. But once they got within a certain range Blake and Gladiolus saw this Duelhorn wasn't normal.
"Wait guys hold it!" Blake called as she drew forth Gambol Shroud while Gladiolus summoned his Claymore.
"What scared kitty cat?" Prompto asked as Gladiolus knew this Monster was not normal.
"You oughta be too. Thing's vicious." Gladiolus said as he and Blake took a battle stance with Ignis and Weiss covering Noctis and Ruby.
"You sure, big guy? Looks tame to me." Yang joked as she got ready for a one hit KO.
"Look out!" Ignis called as the Bloodhorn then charged at them as Prompto freaked out as it charged at them to which Gladiolus then used his Claymore to slash it away while Black aided with that and fired at it as it fell to the side.
"Yeah show him whose boss!" Prompto called as Ruby smiled.
"Nice one!" Ruby cheered as Ignis got into the middle of it.
"It's not over yet!" Ignis called as Weiss summoned some Glyphs while Prompto freaked out.
*Insert Final Fantasy XV OST Mobhunt Battle theme
The group scattered as the two teams knew this thing was most likely ticked off. Now if this was a Grimm infested area they would have been worried but now they can focus their worries on this sole creature since Grimm were the weakest in Lucis. "Ignis!" Noctis called as Ignis nodded and began throwing his daggers at certain location.
"Hi there opening!" Prompto called as he shot those areas as the Bloodhorn roared in pain as Ruby saw it.
"Guys theirs a weak point!" Ruby called as the Bloodhorn then roared and charged straight at Yang.
"I got it!" Yang called out before she delivered a clean punch straight to its head as the beast ran straight at her as it was knocked back.
"Nice try using your head!" Yang taunted as the Bloodhorn roared in fury before charging at it.
"Here I come!" Ruby called as she charged with her semblance active as she swung her scythe around using the gun function and in turn successfully cut one of its horns off as the Bloodhorn roared in fury.
"Nice one Ruby!" Noctis called as Ruby smiled.
"Ruby look out!" Blake called as the Bloodhorn then rammed Ruby sending her flying as her Aura took a big blow from that as Noctis looked.
"I got her!" Noctis called as Weiss looked and saw Noctis even with his warp sword wouldn't make it.
"No I got her!" Weiss called as she then used her Summoning Glyph and summoned a Nevermore to catch Ruby.
"Alright Valefor!" Yang cheered as Weiss glared.
"I told you I'm not going to give all of my summoning's a name!" Weiss called as Ignis chuckled.
"Hmm while I do agree with you giving certain summoning's a name will be useful in the long run since it would keep your enemies guessing on what Grimm you will utilize." Ignis said as Weiss saw the strategy in that as Valefor returned to the ground and dropped off Ruby before vanishing.
"Well I won't deny the strategic value in these names." Weiss confessed as Ruby smiled.
"Alright then he armor is Odin and the Nevermore is Valefor." Ruby cheered as giving summoning's a name was really fun.
Blake was hitting the Bloodhorn with fast attacks as she used her semblance to avoid the attack as Noctis did the same and avoided the same attacks the same way but with the Royal Power as he left a blue after image to take the blow as Ruby smiled. "Ok let's go Checkmate!" Ruby called as Weiss jumped in and the two began their combo attack which was using Weiss's time dilution Glyph to give Blake a speed boost as Blake began hitting the Bloodhorn from different areas. "Now Ladybug!" Ruby called as she and Blake then began using speed to attack the Bloodhorn from different angles.
"Gladio!" Noctis called as Gladiolus nodded.
"Got it!" Gladiolus called as he slammed his sword into the ground sending himself flying before he slammed the Claymore onto the Bloodhorn.
"Prompto!" Noctis called as Prompto switched to a Sniper Rifle and once he had taken aim shot the Bloodhorns eye blinding it.
"Ok everyone give it Hell!" Noctis called as the two teams then began to finish the job as it wasn't long till the Bloodhorn was down for the count as Noctis used his Claymore to cut off its other horn as now the two sides matched as Ruby then sliced straight through the Monster killing it.
*End OST
"Alright we got the bastard!" Yang cheered as Noctis smiled.
"You got my back Iggy?" Noctis asked as Ignis nodded.
"Always but I could go for an Ebony about now." Ignis confessed as some coffee would do them some good right about now.
Soon Noctis Scroll went off as Noctis took the phone and answered as Noctis answered. "Ring, ring." Ruby teased as Noctis spoke into it.
"Hello?" Noctis answered as he spoke into it.
"Hey! Dave just called an' said he's safe. Thanks for findin' him." Cindy said as Noctis nodded. "Nice work, y'all. Anyway the old girl won't be ready till tomorrow morning so I suggest y'all set up camp at a haven till tomorrow, by tomorrow morning the old girl will be good as new Team STRQ's gift from Regis really needed the tune up." Cindy said as everyone agreed on that.
"Ok." Noctis said as he then hung up. "Guys car won't be ready till tomorrow morning so we should get a camp set up at a Haven." Noctis said as Yang nodded.
"Yang and I will get the camping gear from the garage the rest of you should find a place to set up." Gladiolus said as everyone agreed at that one.
Soon Ruby's Scroll rang with a familiar Ringtone as it sounded more like a victory Fanfare (Final Fantasy Victory theme) as Ruby picked it up and saw it was from her dad. "Hey dad what's up?" Ruby greeted as she felt she forgot something.
"What's up? You and Yang said you would call me when you arrived at Lucis I was waiting by the phone all night for that call!" Tai scolded as Ruby smiled sheepishly.
"Yeah sorry dad I forgot and the car broke down so we had to get it fixed and also you never told me King Regis gave you and Mom a car." Ruby countered as Tai balked on his end.
"Um I can I mean look just tell me you're ok." Tai said as Ruby smiled.
"Don't worry I'm fine hopefully we can bring the Regalia Type-II back home after the Vytal Festival." Ruby said as Tai chuckled a bit.
"Yeah me too." He said as that would be one hell of a trip down memory lane before Ruby hung up.
(Scene Break Haven)
*Insert Final Fantasy XV OST: Relax and Reflect
The crew was setting up Camp as Prompto and Blake came back with bags of food they got at the outpost while Yang and Gladiolus were pitching the tents. Ruby and Noctis came in carrying the chairs while Prompto took pictures of the camp while nearby Weiss and Ignis were getting the cooking gear ready with Weiss intent on learning how to cook for herself and who better then Iron Chef Iggy to teach her.
Ignis was meanwhile thinking on what to cook as he then snapped his fingers coming up with the idea for their meal as he then began cooking. It wasn't long till night came that the two teams were eating while Prompto pulled out the photos he took. "Ok guys time for the pictures of the day!" Prompto called as he pulled out said photos and everyone began going through them as like always Prompto's photos were top notch.
