XenoBlaze:Hello and welcome to RWBY Extella Chapter 8.

This the moment some of you have been waiting for.

Ruby:We finally get to see what Hakuno's weapon is!

Hakuno:I'm excited.

I finally get to fight alongside my Servants.

XenoBlaze:Right.

Ruby:Ooh!

Does your weapon transform? How long did it take to make?

The suspense it killing me!

XenoBlaze:Then let's do the disclaimer before you faint.

Hakuno:XenoBlaze does not own RWBY or the Fate series.

All rights go to their rightful owners.


{Begin "Shikisai" -Fate Grand Order Opening by Maaya Sakamoto}

The scene begins with two butterflies -one red and one brown- flying off into the distance.

As the music starts, there is a shot of Hakuno overlooking Patch which changes to Nero overlooking Vale. After that it changes to a shot of

Tamamo overlooking the Emerald Forest, which then changes to adult Altera overlooking Beacon.

Hitori ni naru to kikoeru no

As the lyrics begin, there's a close up of Ruby turning towards the screen with a cheerful expression. Her home town Patch in the background.

Kurushii nara yamete ii to

The scene then changes to a close up of Weiss turning towards the screen with a neutral expression. Beacon in the background.

BURAKKU HOORU mitai ni fukaku

The scene then changes to a close up of Blake turning towards the screen with a solemn expression. The Emerald Forest in the background.

Kowakute miryokuteki na amai koe ga

The scene then changes to a close up of Yang turning towards the screen with a confident grin and wink. Vale in the background.

Anata no kuchiguse wo manete

Jaune walks through the hallways of Beacon. Pyrrha quickly joins him and places a comforting hand on his shoulder.

Jaune looks at Pyrrha while rubbing the back of his neck nervously.

Nande mo nai to itte miru

The scene then changes to Nora in Beacons cafeteria gleefully shoveling pancakes in her mouth like there's no tomorrow.

Ren watches with his hands behind his back and an exasperated expression as he shakes his head.

Sore ga uso demo kamawanai

Ozpin and Glynda are seen on the bow of a transport airship. The scene changes to Oobleck and Port in a classroom looking

towards the screen. Oobleck takes a sip from his thermos while Port strokes his chin.

Tachitsuzukeru douki ni nareba

The next scene has Nero, Tamamo and Altera with their weapons facing off against Weiss, Blake and Yang.

Weiss assumes a stance with her Rapier. Blake dual wields her weapons while Yang slams her fist together with her gauntlets activating.

The sun rises at Beacons courtyard as the two sides charge.

Watashi ga miteru mirai wa hitotsu dake

The next scene shows Nero and Weiss charging then clashing a few times. Both elegantly avoiding each others attacks.

Eien nado sukoshi mo hoshiku wa nai

Altera and Blake exchanging a few blows as the scene then changes to Tamamo using her foot to block a powerful punch from Yang.

Ichibyou isshun ga itooshii

Jaune ready's his sword and shield. Pyrrha twirls her javelin. Nora activates her weapons grenade launcher mode while she grins like a maniac. Ren slips his weapons out of his sleeves.

Anata ga iru sekai ni watashi mo ikiteru

The scene then changes to Hakuno-in her Huntress outfit- and Ruby closing their eyes as they slowly fall forward. The title displayed.

RWBY Extella

As the music ends, there are multiple scenes. Nero and Tamamo arguing. Altera wearing Beacons female uniform holding books in her arms as she gives a small smile. Roman holding a dust crystal with his henchmen behind him. Three shadowy figures with one displaying a glowing amber eye. Team CRDL looking towards the screen with smug expressions. Team CVFY turning to face the screen. Hakuno, Ruby and Jaune's teams eating together in the cafeteria. And finally, Hakuno and Ruby smiling while shaking hands. The two butterflies from earlier fly off again towards the shattered moon.


{Last Time}

Tamamo:I can understand why Goshujin-sama asked us not to use the full extent of our already halved powers. Even going so far to promising not to use our Noble Phantasms unless they are needed.

It would be odd for supposed "first year" students to have the skills of a fully experienced huntress.

Hakuno:Let me handle some of the fighting okay?

I don't want everything you and the others taught me to go to waste.

Nero:Chess pieces?

What purpose would chess have in this forest?

Hakuno:These must be the relics. But where's ours? Its suppose to be hidden around here.

Tamamo:Your Command Seals?

Hakuno:The marks for the Saber and Caster class are here too.

When I stepped on my mark, I felt a small pull on my mana.

I think this is how we find our relic.

A small podium rises from the middle of the other relics.

On top of it is a white queen chess piece.

Yang:How about a cute little pony?

Blake:Sure.

Tamamo:Goshujin-sama!

The four saviors spot a speck of black and red fast approaching from the sky.

Hakuno:Is that...Ruby?

Ruby:Heads uuuuuuuup!


Beginnings Arc Extella 5-Players and Pieces


-Emerald Forest/Temple-

Ruby Rose was not having a good day.

First, she finds out that her partner for four years would be the first person she see's.

Second, that person turned out to be Weiss Schnee, the girl she had an unpleasant encounter with when she got to Beacon.

And third, her latest plan backfired.

Ruby had suggested to Weiss that they could find the temple if they were higher up.

So, when they spotted a giant Nevermore, Ruby thought it was the perfect plan to hitch a ride. However...

Weiss:Ruby! I told you this was a terrible idea!

Ruby:We're fine! Stop worrying!

Weiss:I am so far beyond worrying!

Ruby:In a good way?

Weiss:In a bad way! In a very bad way!

Ruby:Well, why don't we just jump?

Weiss:What are you? Insane?!

Weiss is met with silence. Ruby has already disappeared.

Weiss:Oh, you insufferable little red-!

Back at the cliff, the four saviors are watching as Ruby plummets to her death.

Hakuno:Uh oh! Tamamo make a-

Nero points to the sky.

Nero:Wait, Soshayo! Look!

Ruby:Heads uuuuuuuup!

Just as she's about to hit the ground panicking, Jaune Arc comes flying through the air and crashes into Ruby, knocking her off course and sending them both into a tree to the left of where Blake and Yang are standing.

Tamamo:Well, looks like I wasn't needed after all.

Altera:But where did Jaune come from?

Hakuno:Uh-

Before she can continue, several crashing noises are heard in the forest. An Ursa comes out, claws swiping, just as a pink blast of energy hits it in the back and it crashes to the ground, depositing its rider. Which is revealed to be Nora Valkyrie.

Nero has stars in her eyes.

Nero:OOOOOH!

She rode an Ursa!

Nero puts her hands on her hips and nods.

Nero:Umu!

A fine spectacle to behold.

Everyone else just sweat drops.

Hakuno:(Well, she did say she once rode a lion.)

The four saviors watch as Nora picks up a white rook piece.

She then does a little dance and says something Nero, Altera and Hakuno can't hear. However thanks to her heightened hearing, Tamamo hears Nora just fine.

Nora(singing):I'm queen of the castle! I'm queen of the castle!

Tamamo sweat drops.

Tamamo:(She really does have a lot of energy.)

Sunddenly a screech is heard from their right, and Pyrrha Nikos comes onto the scene as a Death Stalker uproots entire trees in its chase after her. Pyrrha narrowly dodges its giant claws and keeps on running.

Altera:A Death Stalker?

There was one nearby?

The four saviors watch as the rest of the group -minus Pyrrha who is still being chased by the Death Stalker and Weiss who is nowhere to be seen- come together.

They then see Yang explode in a fiery rage.

Altera:She has quite the temper.

Hakuno:The fire must be related to her Semblance.

Tamamo's ears twitch. She then looks up and pulls on Hakuno's sleeve.

Tamamo:Uh...Goshujin-sama?

Hakuno:Hm?

Tamamo points to the Nervermore circling the temple.

More specifically its foot. Where a speck of white can be seen.

Hakuno:Is that...Weiss?

Weiss:How could you leave me?!

Nero:She should just jump.

Altera:I don't think that's necessary.

Nero:Why would you say that?

Altera:Because she's falling.

Just as Altera said, Weiss loses her grip on the Nevermore and plummets to the ground.

However, before that could happen, Jaune saves her.

But neglects to remember he was in a tree.

The two fall to the ground with Weiss sitting on top of Jaune.

Hakuno:Ouch. That's had to hurt.

Tamamo:Indeed.

Thank the gods for Aura.

The Death Stalker is still hunting Pyrrha, but she manages to land on her side at the feet of the other students.

The four saviors then see Ruby charge the Death Stalker with her scythe drawn.

Nero:That fool!

Altera:She can't charge a Death Stalker head on!

The Grimm swipes Ruby away and she is knocked back.

Ruby slowly stands up and turns back to the monster. She shoots it in the skull, running away from it and sheathing her scythe as the Death Stalker now goes after her.

Ruby rushes towards Yang, but the Nevermore caws above them, flapping its wings and releasing lines of sharpened feathers with points that catch on Ruby's cape and prevent Yang from reaching her.

Ruby struggles to free her cape.

Nero:Forget your cape and get out of there!

Tamamo:It must have some value to her.

The Death Stalker approaches, raising its golden stinger above a scared Ruby and heading down on the helpless girl.

Hakuno:That's it! Were going in!

Altera:Wait!

Look!

Weiss rushes pass Yang and freezes the Death Stalker's stinger.

Nero:Well, that was a surprise.

Tamamo:Looks like there IS a heart in that frigid body of hers.

Hakuno smiles.

Hakuno:(Good job Weiss.)


The group down below notices the Nevermore still circling.

Jaune:Guys? That thing's circling back! What are we gonna do?

Weiss:Look, there's no sense in dilly-dallying. Our objective is right in front of us.

Ruby:She's right. Our mission is to grab an artifact and make it back to the 's no point in fighting these things.

Jaune:Run and live - that's an idea I can get behind!

Ruby goes over and grabs a gold knight identical to the one Yang picked out. And Jaune takes hold of a gold rook similar to Nora and Ren's piece. They then smiling at each other.

The Death Stalker continues to fight its bonds, cracking the ice a little in the process.

Ren:Time we left!

Ruby:Right. Let's go!

Ruby goes forward with everyone following except for a smiling Yang and Blake as the latter approaches her partner.

Blake:What is it?

Yang stares proudly at Ruby as she leaps on a boulder and motions the group onward.

Yang:Nothing...

Yang moves on as Blake smiles in realization then leaves as well.


The four saviors watch the students leave.

Tamamo:They're moving.

Hakuno:And so are we. Come on.

Hakuno, Nero and Tamamo run after the students.

However, before Altera can follow them, she stares at the bushes behind her.

Hakuno:Altera!

Come on!

Altera shakes her head and follows the others.

Unaware of several red eyes shining through the bushes.


-Ruins-

The group heads out of the forest and into another abandoned series of structures as the Nevermore follows them from the air. They spread out when it passes above, concealing themselves behind some of the stone blocks with their allies as it perches on a high column and caws.

Yang(annoyed):Well, that's great!

Jaune looks behind at the Death Stalker bursting onto the scene.

Jaune:Ah, man, run!

The group emerges from their hiding spots, causing the Nevermore to rise up into the air.

Ren:Nora, distract it!

Nora obliges, running out from her block and jumping through the feather projectiles before reaching behind her and launching several heart-topped shells from her grenade launcher, bursting into pink electricity when they hit the Nevermore and causing it to retreat. She is unaware of the Death Stalker rushing up behind her until Blake and Ren perform a cross-slash with their Gambol Shroud and StormFlower against its shell. Weiss lands next to Nora so she can create a jumping platform beneath them and leap to safety while Blake and Ren are now being chased.

Pyrrha:Go, go!

Pyrrha stops running beside Jaune and gets out Miló, firing red shots alongside Ren's green blasts for a second until it reaches them and tries to swipe, prompting the group to run again.

The eight race over the ancient stone bridge, not noticing the Nevermore closing in on them until it uses its giant wings to shatter the path right in the middle, forcing Ruby, Weiss, Yang, Nora, and Jaune closer to the central collection of columns and leaving Blake, Ren, and Pyrrha on the other side with the Death Stalker. Ruby fires at the retreating Nevermore while Blake is beaten back by the scorpion.

Jaune comes to the edge of the break in the bridge.

Nora runs up beside him.

Jaune:Man, we gotta get over there! They need help!

Nora:Let's do this!

Jaune looks down at the misty abyss.

Jaune:Yeah, but, uh... I can't make that jump.

Nora smiles diabolically at him, laughing as she knocks him back, turns her weapon to its full-length hammer form, and jumps to the edge of the bridge.

Jaune:Oh, wait!

Nora slams the hammer into the bridge and throws Jaune to the other side, yelling.

Nora places one foot on the hammer and fires it off the collapsing section of bridge, launching her to slam its face right in the center of the Death Stalker's skull. She fires it just as the stinger comes down to get her, and blasts back again to avoid its reach, accidentally knocking into Blake and making her fall from the edge. Blake sees the Nevermore above her and launches her whip so the gun's blade sinks into the edge of the bridge, circling around and leaping onto the aerial Grimm's back. She dashes all over its body, slashing the entire time, before jumping off and landing on the ruined platform at the top of the columns next to Ruby, then going over to Yang and Weiss.

Blake:It's tougher than it looks!

Yang readys her gauntlets Ember Celica.

Yang:Then let's hit it with everything we got!

{Play "Red Like Roses Part 2"-Ruby's character theme by Casey Lee Williams and Sandy Lee Casey}

The Nevermore approaching, Ruby, Blake, Weiss, and Yang set their weapons to fire a barrage of blasts at the bird, which it either dodges or takes harmlessly until it crashes through the columns and platform. The girls leap from one section of falling stone to the next until they reach the higher bridge on top, just below the cliffs.

Weiss:None of this is working!

Ruby watches Blake whip over to another section of the area and Yang firing round after flaming round at the Grimm.

Ruby:I have a plan! Cover me!

Ruby blasts away as Weiss raises her blade and heads into the fray.

Down below, the Death Stalker is still battling Jaune, Ren, Nora, and Pyrrha.

Jaune:We gotta move!

Jaune's group rushes towards the Death Stalker.

The Death Stalker aims a claw at Pyrrha, but she deflects it with her Akoúo shield and slashes it with her blade. The scorpion recoils and swipes at her with its other claw, but Jaune is there to deflect it with his shield, knocking it back so Pyrrha can leap over and attack its face. Ren runs up firing and gets on the stinger when it tries to hit him, shooting at the base between it and the tail while Nora fires more grenades at the attacking claws. Pyrrha hurls her javelin straight into one of the monster's ten eyes, making it throw Ren to the side.

Nora:Ren!

Ren hits the side of a stone block hard and falls to the ground, not getting back up. Jaune, though, manages to stand and notice the stinger is hanging limply.

Jaune:Pyrrha!

Pyrrha:Done!

Pyrrha raises her shield and hurls it like a discus, slicing the stinger off and causing it to fall into the Death Stalker's head as Pyrrha retrieves her rebounding shield.

Jaune:Nora, nail it!

Nora:Heads up!

Nora jumps on Akoúo, Pyrrha leaps as Nora aims her blast down to give herself a maximum lift, and she smiles the entire way up before twirling down until her hammer slams its head into the stinger, driving the point through the Death Stalker's head and crushing the bridge beneath it.

Jaune and Pyrrha bound over the monster to the land behind it, and Nora fires up and away behind them as the monster falls to its doom. Jaune hits the ground on his back, Nora lands on her bottom, Pyrrha manages a crouched pose, and Ren simply walks over to them, panting and groaning until he just collapses. The other three get up and watch as the Nevermore is peppered with firepower.

Yang is still burning through her ammo on the beast, landing a blow at its face and causing it to head right towards her, but she leaps for its open maw and forces the beak wide as she attacks.

Yang:I! Hope! You're! Hung-! ...-gry!

Yang looks behind her and jumps back from its mouth onto a ruin, causing the creature to crash into the cliffs.

Despite Yang's attempts, the Nevermore recovers quickly, and Yang smiles as she spots Ruby and Blake on the broken columns with Weiss rushing to the battle. Yang passes her while the Nevermore starts to fly back up, but Weiss hops over to the ruin it's lifting off of and freezes the tip of its feathery tail to the ground, leaving it stuck in the same spot despite its flapping. Weiss back-flips into a snowflake-circle jump and lands on the other side, running to the group.

Blake fires the pistol portion of Gambol Shroud over to Yang, and the two tighten it between the columns so Ruby can jump on the center with Crescent Rose and bend it back into Weiss' black sigil, right next to the caster.

Weiss:Of course you would come up with this idea.

Ruby:Think you can make the shot?

Weiss(confident):Hmm! Can I!

A second passes.

Ruby:Can't?

Weiss:Of course I can!

Ruby looks forward and pumps Crescent Rose as Weiss turns the circle from black to red and releases Ruby at such a speed that the ground behind her launch cracks, rose petals flying from her ascent. With each new shot, she gets closer and closer to the trapped Grimm until her scythe catches the Nevermore's neck in its blade and causes them both to fall to the cliff wall. Weiss raises her sword and creates a series of white circles up the wall, which Ruby dashes through by firing the entire way up.

Yang, Blake, and an exhausted Weiss watch her climb up with the bird in her grasp until, both warrior and monster crying out, Ruby reaches the top of the cliff, circles up, fires one last shot, and rends the Nevermore's head from its shoulders in a shower of petals.

She lands beside the severed head as the body of the giant Nevermore falls lifeless to the ruins and crevice below while the girls and, farther away, Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren watch in amazement.

{Song ends}

Jaune:Wow...

Ruby, her cape and petals flowing with the wind, looks down to her friends as they peer up.

Yang:Well... That was a thing!


Ruby makes her way back to the group using a combination of her Semblance and the recoil from Crescent Rose.

Yang hugs Ruby as the rest of the group gather near them.

Yang:That was awesome!

Nice job little sis.

Weiss:I'll admit.

While highly dangerous, your plan did work.

Blake just gives a small smile.

Ruby:Thanks.

But I couldn't have done it without you guys.

Everyone helped. So thanks.

Everyone smiles.

Just as everyone is about to head back to Beacon, the students hear a heavy thump. Several more are heard after the first.

Jaune:What was that?

Ren:Sounds like...footsteps.

The students like towards the forest to see a bunch of trees tumbling down. The footsteps get closer and everyone draws their weapons in defense.

The trees make way for a horrifying sight.

A Death Stalker. However, this one does not look natural. Instead of red markings and a gold stinger, this one was green in those areas.(Mutant Death Stalker from RWBY Grimm Eclipse)

Yang:What the?!

Weiss:What kind of Death Stalker is that?

Things get worse for the students as 10 Beowolves gather from behind the Death Stalker. Each of them with the same green markings as the larger Grimm.(Mutant Beowolves)

Yang:Oh come on!

Blake:This is bad.

We're still exhausted from fighting the Nevermore and Death Stalker.

Pyrrha:And we're low on Aura.

Weiss:Ruby, if you've got anymore ideas, now would be a great time.

Ruby:I...

The Mutant Grimm stalk towards the students.

Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang, Pyrrha, Ren, and Nora having long range weaponry, fire at the Grimm. However, their shots prove to be ineffective as the keep moving.

Yang:How are they still moving?

We're hitting them with everything we have!

The students are so focused on the Beowolves that they forget the Stalker. Which is charging right at them.

Jaune:Look out!

The move aside to avoid the larger Grimm as it swipes forward.

The student manage to avoid the attack but miss the Death Stalker's stinger. Which is heading straight for Ruby.

Yang:Ruby!

Ruby looks up to see the stinger nearing her. With no time to move she awaits her death.

Everyone looks on in horror.

Just when Ruby closes her eyes, a flash of blue runs pass her.

A large bang is heard. Along with a voice.

?:Mikon!

That was too close.

Ruby opens her eyes to see a familiar fox faunus holding one hand up to block the Stalker's stinger with a blue energy shield.

Tamamo:Are you alright Little Rose?

Ruby:Uh...yeah...

Tamamo turns her head towards Ruby and smiles. Her shield still blocking the Death Stalker.

Weiss:Where did she come from?

?:Nice job Tamamo.

The students look behind them to see Hakuno, Nero and Altera walking towards them.

Ruby takes the opportunity to run back to Yang.

Ruby:Hakuno!

Yang:Man. Are we glad to see you.

Hakuno:Looks like we made it just in time.

Weiss glares at Hakuno.

Weiss(agitated):How did you just happen to show up when we need your help?

Hakuno doesn't even flinch at Weiss' glare.

Hakuno:Honestly, we were watching you guys take down the Nevermore and Death Stalker.

We were going to help, but you looked like you had things under control.

Hakuno smiles at Ruby and Jaune.

Hakuno:Nice job you two.

Ruby blushes and shuffles her feet while Jaune rubs the back of his head embarrassed.

Weiss explodes at Hakuno's nonchalant answer.

Weiss:Excuse me?!

You still could've helped!

Altera:Which is why we are here now.

Everyone looks confused at Altera's answer.

Nero:You all have done well.

Now, take this time to rest.

Hakuno:We'll take it from here.

Everyone is shocked at Hakuno and her Servants answer.

Weiss:Are you crazy?!

Blake:There's no way you can kill all of them by yourselves!

Nero folds her arms in a thinking position.

Nero:Hmm. I'm not so sure.

Tamamo! What say you?

Everyone looks to Tamamo-still holding off the Stalker with her shield.

Tamamo:Oh-ho-ho.

Nero-san. The answer is obvious.

Tamamo puts more mana into her shield to push the Death Stalker back a few feet from her. The students are shocked at the display of strength.

Tamamo:Victory is ours of course.

Jaune:How did she do that?

Hakuno:Ruby.

Ruby turns to Hakuno.

Hakuno:From what I've heard, you like seeing new weapons.

Hakuno reaches for the black handle in her pocket.

Hakuno:Watch closely.

Hakuno pulls out what looks like a black sword handle with a red jewel in the middle.

Yang:What are you gonna do with that?

Aren't you missing the rest of it?

Nero smirks.

Nero:Just watch.

Hakuno closes her eyes and fires up her Magic Circuits.

Hakuno:(Here we go.)

(Time to put professor Ozpins gift to good use.)

Hakuno's eyes snap open as she focuses her mana into the sword handle. The handle shines as a long glowing black blade forms from the handle.

The students stare in amazement at Hakuno's weapon while her Servants look at her with proud faces.

Blake:What...is that?

Weiss:A Dust blade?

But its nothing like I've ever seen before.

And the Dust. Its glowing.

Weiss gasp in realization.

Weiss:Its active?!

Yang:What do you mean?

Weiss:I mean, that blade is resonating with her Aura.

She's channeling her Aura through that sword.

Blake:Isn't that dangerous?

Won't she run out of Aura faster?

Nero:Hm hm hm.

You shouldn't underestimate her.

Soshayo is much stronger than she appears.

Now then...

Nero swipes the air with her hand as her sword appears.

Nero:Behold!

The ultimate instrument! Aestus Estus!

Altera makes the same motion as her sword appears.

Altera:The sword of the destroyer god. The Sword of Mars.

The students look in amazement at the for saviors weaponry.

Ruby's excitement can be seen by looking at the stars in her eyes.

Jaune:Where were they keeping their swords?

They just appeared out of nowhere.

Pyrrha:Perhaps it is related to their Semblance.

Hakuno:Alright.

Altera, help Tamamo with the Death Stalker.

Nero, the two of us will take care of the Beowolves.

Nero:As you wish, Soshayo.

Altera:Understood.

Tamamo:Hai.

Hakuno:One more thing.

The Servants turn to Hakuno as she gives a smile.

Hakuno:I know you three have been feeling restrained today.

So how about you show off a little? Nothing too flashy okay?

The three Servants grin and turn their attention back to the Grimm.

Nero, Tamamo & Altera:Understood!

{Play Fate/Extella Link OST-"Battle of The Moon"}

Altera jumps to Tamamo's side as both Servants take their stances.

Nero crouches into a stance.

Nero:Are you ready, Soshayo?

Hakuno mimics Nero's stance as her face turns serious.

Hakuno:Let's go!

Hakuno and Nero charge towards the . One Beowolf swipes at Hakuno. But Hakuno avoids the attack and slashes the Grimm with her sword. Another Beowolf comes from behind, but Nero slashes it. Hakuno and Nero begin to make quick work of the . Unlike most Grimm, these mutant ones are more durable. So it takes more than one strike to end them. However, Hakuno and Nero have fought together for a long time. So the two know when to aid the other. When one attacks, the other defends and counters. The display is something akin to a dance. Attack, defend, evade and counter. That's how the dance went.

While Hakuno and Nero dealt with the Beowolves, Tamamo and Altera were dealing with the Stalker.

The Grimm launched its stinger at Tamamo. Only for it to be repelled by Tamamo's shield.

Tamamo waves her finger at the Grimm like a scolding parent.

Tamamo:Naughty naughty.

Tamamo takes out a talisman and channels her mana into it.

Tamamo:Curse:Thunder!

Tamamo hurls a large ball of lighting at the Death Stalker. On impact the Grimm is sent back a few feet. Altera take the chance to rush in and attack. Altera delivers three fast strikes at the Grimm. It try's to move to counter Altera's attacks, but thanks to Tamamo's earlier attack, the Grimm is left paralyzed. The Death Stalker then shakes off the temporary paralysis and launches its stinger at Altera. Before the stinger can pierce Altera, the Grimm's attack is deflected by Nero who has just finished destroying the . Nero and Altera jump back as Tamamo uses another talisman to freeze the Death Stalker in its tracks.

Hakuno:Now!

Hakuno and her Servants take positions on each side of the Death Stalker. The saviors charge the Grimm and rush it with rapid fire strikes. The Grimm is helpless to defend itself and is at the mercy of the four saviors. They then jump back.

Hakuno:Let's finish this!

Hakuno's sword ignites as well as Nero and Altera's. Tamamo prepares another talisman. Hakuno, Nero and Altera preform a sweeping motion and launch a flaming shockwave at the Grimm. Tamamo amps up the attack by adding her own fire spell. The Death Stalker flails around in agony and begins to dissipate under the intense heat.

{Song ends}

The four saviors put away their weapons.

Hakuno:Phew.

Good job everyone.

Tamamo tackles Hakuno to the ground and rubs her face onto Hakuno's.

Tamamo:Goshujin-sama~!

Tamamo is so proud of you!

Hakuno:T-Tamamo!

Altera picks up Tamamo by her collar and sits her down away from Hakuno.

Altera:There's a time and place for affection and now isn't the time.

Tamamo pouts.

Nero:Umu! Rightfully so.

Still Soshayo, well done.

Hakuno:Thanks.

Hakuno stumbles and holds her head. Her Servants look at her with worry.

Altera:Are you alright?

Hakuno:I'm okay.

Hakuno looks at her sword.

Hakuno:I'm still getting used to Ser Veresta.

I need more practice.

Anyway, now that that's over, we should head back.

The four saviors make their way back to Beacon. While the students behind still stand with their mouths agape. All of them with varying opinions.

Ruby had fainted at the sight of the four saviors weapons in action and was being held in Yang's arms. Weiss was impressed by their teamwork and coordination. Yang was having an overload about all the fire puns she could make. Blake and Pyrrha were wondering just how strong the four saviors really are. Jaune was feeling even smaller than what he was feeling before seeing everyone else in action. Ren was amazed at the techniques the four saviors used. And Nora was grinning from ear to ear about how she found new people to help her break some legs. The eight students stood there frozen until Yang broke the silence.

Yang:I said it before and I'll say it again. ...That was a thing!


-Beacon Academy/Auditorium-

Ozpin:Russel Thrush. Cardin Winchester. Dove Bronzewing. Sky Lark.

The screen of the auditorium shows each of their profiles as the boys are lined up for the applauding audience to see as Ozpin continues.

Ozpin:The four of you retrieved the black bishop pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team CRDL, led by... Cardin Winchester!

The audience gives one more wave of ovation, while four students walk up to the stage to take their places in front of the headmaster as their faces fill the screen.

Ozpin:Jaune Arc. Lie Ren. Pyrrha Nikos. Nora Valkyrie. The four of you retrieved the white rook pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team JNPR.

Amid the clapping, Nora laughs and gives Ren a hug.

Ozpin:Led by... Jaune Arc!

Jaune:Huh? L-Led by...?

Ozpin:Congratulations, young man.

A grinning Pyrrha offers a friendly shoulder bump to Jaune, but her "fine leader" is knocked over and falls to his butt in front of the laughing audience.

Ozpin:Blake Belladonna. Ruby Rose. Weiss Schnee. Yang Xiao Long.

Ozpin motions over the four as they stand before him.

Ozpin:The four of you retrieved the white knight pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team RWBY. Led by... Ruby Rose!

Weiss looks to her right surprised, where Ruby is obviously in shock as Yang goes over to hug her sister.

Yang:I'm so proud of you!

Ozpin:And finally. Nero Claudius. Hakuno Kishinami. Altera Hun. Tamamo no Mae.

Ozpin motions over the four as they stand before him.

The screen of the auditorium shows each of their profiles as the girls are lined up for the applauding audience to see as Ozpin continues.

Ozpin:The four of you have retrieved the white queen piece. From this day forward, you will work together as Team HANT.(Haunt) Led by... Hakuno Kishinami!

The four saviors give slight bows as cheers and applause are heard.

Ozpin:It looks like things are shaping up to be an... interesting year.


-Later that night in a warehouse-

The moon shines through a window, providing a view to the outside for a shadowy room filled with shelves and a desk in the back, where Roman Torchwick is getting a call on his phone. The muffled conversation ends, and Roman angrily slams the phone down, sighing. He holds a cigar to his mouth and puts his symbolized lighter to the end, just as a man in a gray mask and black hood comes with a trolley. Roman holds out a collection of Lien, which he places on the table and the man takes.

Roman:Open it.

The masked man does so with a crowbar, revealing a large amount of Dust crystals of varying colors - orange, blue, white, red, green, cyan, gold, yellow, and more. Roman picks up a blue gem in his hand and looks at the loot.

Roman: We're gonna need more men...

The view zooms in on the map above the desk, showing Vale and various districts and areas of crossed-out locations, all leading into a specially-circled place - Beacon.

-To be continued-


AN:And there you have it. Chapter 8.

Man did that take a long time to write.

I brought the Mutant Grimm from Grimm Eclipse because I thought it would be more challenging for the saviors of the Moon Cell. How did they get to Beacon? Well, that question will be answered. But no time soon. XD

Now for Hakuno's weapon. I was between ideas of what to give her. It was either the Sword of Light from Slayers or Ser Veresta from Asterisk War. I decided on the later because the Ogre Lux's are basically magical weapons that use Prana/Mana to fuel them. Hakuno and her Servants still have magic but in addition to their Aura. And for someone like Weiss, would think it looks like a glowing Dust blade. Hakuno uses her mana to power Ser Veresta while her Aura shields her from damage. Also I'm using the slim version of Ser Veresta as seen in Asterisk War episode 21. For those who thought Hakuno would be using a weapon that was also a gun, sorry. But Hakuno's Servants didn't have weapons that were two things and I wanted to keep it that way. I'll explain how Hakuno-and by extension Ozpin- got their hands on Ser Veresta next chapter. And as I said before, I'm not good at fight scenes so sorry if Team Haunt's fight seemed bad.

Now for the next question to eat away at your minds.

What is Hakuno's Semblance?
