Hello! Welcome to chapter two of my second fanfic. So what about my other one? I will still update it and I will balance my two stories. I don't wish to make this a job but I want to make it a fun hobby. That's why I don't update my stories as much. I was motivated to write this fanfic after playing a lot of siege and thinking "Hey, this could work for a RWBY crossover I bet.". So I did! Anyways, enough of my rambling, ENJOY!
Beacon University, Vale, Texas, October 21st, 2015...
It was just another day for Yang. Wake up, miss Ruby, get a shower and get ready for the day, kiss Blake before she goes to class, lounge around for half an hour, than go to classes, and enjoy lunch break at the dorms with Weiss and JNPR. Weiss was at first a very bitchy person in Yang's opinion, and she still is now, but she's gotten softer around her, Blake, and JNPR. Yang was just lounging around in her dorm room. Reading a magazine while chewing bubblegum and listening to classic 70s and 80s rock. She was enjoying her lunch break, though she barely gets lunch unless Blake or her friends all want to go out and get some, by being lazy. Blake was in the living room. How the dorm building worked is they're divided into sections. When you open the door to room 347 for example, you would be greeted with a massive living room and kitchen. Connected to these rooms would be 4 doors that lead to individual dorm rooms where 2 beds and 1 bathroom would be located. Blake was watching the tv in the living room, flicking in between shows on Netflix to be precise. That was until she got a text message from her mother, Kali, telling her to check the news. She then switched to CNN and it showed a reporter sitting at the desk with a serious yet sad face. Blake immediately knew something was wrong and when a picture of Bartlett University was shown she knew something wasn't right.
"YANG!?" Blake yelled
"Yes?" Yang answered casually
"You should come see this! Right now!" Blake yelled
Yang knew something was wrong. So she left her room and saw CNN and a picture of Bartlett. Her heart sank and she realized the volume was muted.
"Turn up the volume!" Yang yelled
Blake, frightened, turned up the television's volume and listened to the reporter. By now, Yang had texted everyone to get to the living room. Almost immediately, team JNPR and Weiss had gotten into the living room and noticed the news channel. It was then that the reporter spoke.
"We have confirmed reports. Yes, confirmed reports that terrorists have inflitrated and attacked Bartlett Univesity using an unknown Biochemical weapon. Yes, we have also confirmed that there are numerous casualties as the terrorists are armed with light machine guns and assault rifles. Oh my god." said the reporter on the tv as he just stood there in shock.
Everyone in the living room was silent. Yang immediately started to panic.
"I'm calling dad." Yang said as she picked up her phone and ran into her room, crying.
"Ruby goes there!" Jaune said, now glued to the news broadcast.
The broadcast then changed from the reporter at the desk to a reporter on a helicopter that is currently circling the university.
"Yes, this is the view of Bartlett University now. A yellow cloud is currently sitting over the university and that cloud is the biochemical weapon. We have also learned from sources that there are two bombs inside the university." said the reporter as she looked towards the yellow cloud.
"Oh my god! Ruby please be okay!" said Pyrrha as she started to cry a little.
"Yeah, I hope she's okay." said Ren as he looked closer.
"Wait... look at that. There is a helicopter approaching the university. My cameraman telling me it looks like a Blackhawk helicopter. Wait it is currently hovering over the roof. People are current rappelling down to the roof from the helicopter!" the female reporter said, surprised.
The broadcast showed a Blackhawk helicopter dropping off 5 people in black hazmat suits and weapons. Everyone in the dorm living rooms knows that these are most likely SWAT or something else. The helicopter than dropped off 5 more in front of the building. The helicopter than flew off and the camera followed the operators.
"Wait... that isn't SWAT." said Weiss quietly as she looked closely at the TV.
"Whaddya mean Weiss? Of course it's SWAT who else would respond to this?" asked Jaune looking at Weiss like she had just grown two heads.
"Imbecile! Look closely at their shoulders! Their patches are all different." yelled Weiss as Jaune looked closer and realized his mistake.
"Oh. Wait, is that a GIGN patch? There's a GSG 9 patch as well. What!? There's a Spetsnaz operator as well!" Jaune yelled as he looked closely at the patches.
The camera was zoomed in on the operators. Showing them before zooming out suddenly with the reporter talking.
"Sorry, it appears we cannot zoom in or show these operators closely as to not compromise their identity." said the reporter as she looked red from embarrassment.
"Wow... these guys must be the real deal!" said Jaune. Jaune was always interested in the military.
10 minutes later...
Yang had come back from her bedroom 5 minutes ago and watched as the operators cleared out the building and disarmed the bombs and got out of there. After that the broadcast cut to a United Nations meeting where all the country ambassadors have gathered for an emergency meeting. The meeting showed the world leaders confirming the threat of a terrorist group called the "White Masks". Everyone in the dorm living room was shocked. A massive terrorist threat indiscriminate of almost everything, that has the power of attacking almost anywhere. Everyone became scared and a chill ran up their spine. Then the camera cut to a black woman walking up to the podium. The name displayed was Aurelia Arnot and she was listen under the United States. She spoke...
"Ladies and gentlemen of the world. Our intelligence has confirmed the existence of a threat that is unlike any other we have seen. This threat has the possibility to attack anywhere and have an unknown amount of weapons at their disposal. They are indiscriminate of Age, Race, Sex, and Nationality. These people could bring devastation to the planet. So that means as of now my program is reactivated. The best of your counter terrorist operators have already been recruited. Now it is the time for action. We must prevent these situations and, when they happen, intervene any terrorist situation. We must be the smoke that clouds over the enemy like a looming shadow, the shield that protects civilization as we know it, and the face that they will soon come to fear. I trust you understand what is happening and cooperate. Team Rainbow must stand strong." Aurelia finished. The room was silent. That was until the ambassador of Mexico spoke up.
"What can we do to help?" asked the ambassador.
"Send the best you have." responded Aurelia as she turned to leave the stage.
The dorm living room was silent. They were absorbing what they had heard and more questions popped in their heads. The main question being "what the fuck is team Rainbow?". Everyone looked at each other, wondering the same thing. It was Jaune that spoke up.
"I remember what they are now. They were a program where the best operators from around the world would participate in anti-terrorist situations. They were disbanded in 2012 after Osama Bin Laden's death." explained Jaune. Everyone in the dorm room then looked towards one another.
"Interesting" said Weiss
"Neat" responded Yang
"Badass!" yelled Nora
Everyone in the dorm laughed at that and Yang got a text from her dad.
"I'm coming to get you. The hospital in Cambridge called and said Ruby was recovering. Summer, however, she's not doing so great." said Taiyang from the other side of the phone.
"O-okay" Yang said, her heart shattered and tears starting to flow. "W-well I have t-t-to g-go guys." Yang said as she was beginning to cry. Before anyone could say anything Yang ran out of the dorm room and towards the parking lot, sobbing.
"Let's go to bed guys. I feel that tomorrow isn't going to be a good day." said Blake as she started to go towards her bedroom. A depressed look on her face as she slowly to her bed and collapsed on it, crying.
Everyone else went into their bedrooms to sleep. A sad and depressed mood looming over everyone as they drifted off to sleep. Yang was waiting at the parking lot for Taiyang to arrive. When she saw his car pull up she got in.
"Come on, let's go see your sister." Taiyang said, a stoic look on his face as he started the engine.
"Okay dad." Yang responded, the evidence that she was crying was very pronounce on her face.
The car drove off. Towards Bartlett, towards Cambridge, and towards Ruby.
1 day later... Cambridge hospital.
Ruby slowly opened her eyes. She didn't know what was going on. She saw a lump of blonde hair.
"Yang?" She thought as she opened her eyes more. She didn't understand what had happened.
When Ruby woke up, Yang woke up. When Yang saw Ruby she immediately started to cry. Yang gave Ruby a big hug and started to sob uncontrollably.
"I-I'm so g-glad you're o-Okay!" Yang sobbed as Ruby pat her back.
"It's okay Yang, what happened?" Ruby asked, the memories of yesterday not fully finding their way back.
"Ruby, you don't remember the attack?" Yang asked, a little scared Ruby might've lost her memory.
It was then that Ruby's memories of yesterday returned. Ruby started to cry.
"Y-Yang? Where's Katy?" Ruby asked, scared and frightened.
Yang's silence was Ruby's answer. Ruby started to sob uncontrollably as she slumped into Yang and cried loudly. They were both crying for what felt like hours until Taiyang came in. Behind him was Summer Rose, in a wheelchair.
"M-mom?" Yang and Ruby asked at the same time as they looked at Sunmer.
"Yes. It's really me sweetheart." Summer said, starting to cry.
"What happened!?" Ruby asked.
"She was shot in both legs. While her legs still work the doctors said she would need physical therapy to let them return to normal. As for you Ruby, you were shot through the shoulder. It just missed your artery, you're lucky to be alive." Tai said as he started to cry.
Yang, Ruby, Tai, and Summer all shared a group hug. Crying until a man walked in the room. Yang immediately realized who he was. The man had white hair and a cane. He was wearing a black suit with a tint of green to it. He had round glasses that looked like they came straight from the Harry Potter movies. Yang recognized him as Ozpin, Beacon University's headmaster.
"Hello everyone. I assume you know who I am?" Ozpin asked as everybody in the room turned to acknowledge him.
"Yeah I do. This is Ozpin, he's my headmaster." Yang said as she looked towards him with a confused look on her face. "Wait... why are you here?" Yang asked as Ozpin looked towards her.
"I'm here because I am terribly sorry for what happened. And due to a benefit from a relative's job I am offering Ms. Rose a scholarship to Beacon University that will cover her for her entire stay." Ozpin explained.
"Wait... what benefit? None of us have that." Taiyang asked as he looked towards Ozpin with utter confusion.
"Well the person who has it is not in this room. But you do know him Mrs. Rose." Ozpin said as he turned to Summer. A look of understanding washed over her face.
"I see... so Red is... alive?" Summer asked Ozpin. Ozpin nodded.
"Wait who's Red?" Yang asked Summer.
"Oh... uh oh I let that slip did I?" Summer said as she looked a little embarrassed. "Listen... you must not tell anybody except closely trusted friends. And when I say trust I mean genuine trust." Summer began with a serious face as Ruby and Yang nodded, awaiting her explanation. "Red is my older brother, he is very secretive and I have seen him in years." Summer explained.
"I have an uncle!?" Ruby asked with genuine shock as she turned towards Taiyang, who just nodded.
"Yes you do Ruby now hush." Summer said as she continued. "He is in the military. He rose through the ranks quick and he is very good at his job. So it caught the attention of some very elite forces." Summer said as she prepared to drop the heavy load of information on her daughters. "Your uncle is team Rainbow. He is in Rainbow under the Delta Force operators." Summer explained. Ruby and Yang gasped as a thousand questions entered their heads.
"Wait... so does that mean that he was one of the operators that saved me?" Ruby asked as Summer nodded and continued.
"He is also Ghost Recon. Though he isn't really involved in that special forces unit as he is only called for deep cover missions that can take months to complete." Summer said as she then went on. "Red is a very good person, on the outside he is stone faced and shows very little personality but when he's with friends and family he's very nice and humorous. He isn't due to come home in a long time however. Last time I checked he's coming home in a year. He will he staying with us for 4 months and then he will leave again." Summer finished as she looked towards her daughters. "Any questions?" Summer asked.
"Wait... aside from the obvious ones. What are the benefits he has for us if one allows Ruby to have a scholarship full ride." Yang asked, genuinely curious.
"I can explain that Mrs. Rose. His benefits include free health insurance for him and his entire family, a reserve to new federal programs that relate to public safety. So say the government makes fallout shelters again, you would be on a reserved list and be automatically let in in the event of nuclear war. Also, his benefits include a 30% boost to his direct families salaries. It also includes the ability to meet and interact with special forces operators. There's also the ability to speak about him. There's the scholarship thing which is coincidental is it gives me the opportunity to give you a scholarship in the event that the school you went too fell victim to a terrorist attack or was destroyed on purpose by a person. There's also the thing that all of you have. Remember those things you were given when you got your drivers license or when you went to a government facility? Well those special Federal IDs allow you to get a special discount on meals at participating restaurants and it also grants the ability to travel to places that would normally be restricted if you have Red with you. Also, the federal IDs work as official concealed and open carry licenses which are immune to any building that has a no gun policy which means you can carry them inside. Except a few federal buildings. It also allows you to purchase higher rate rifles. This is because of the risk that comes with being related to someone who has to do so much anti-terrorist work." Ozpin said as he looked down and continued. "The federal government can only do so much when you practically don't exist to the public or your family that hasn't met you before." Ozpin concluded as he looked towards Ruby and held out his hand. "Beacon is a very prestigious academy, we pride ourselves for our excellent courses and opportunities. It would be very nice and not hard to have you join us for the rest of your college career." Ozpin said as he kept his hand out, a smile on his face.
"I'd be honored sir." Ruby said. Yang started to squeal and wrapped Ruby in a bear hug.
"I'm so happy my little sis is coming with me to Beacon!" Yang said as she ruffled Ruby's hair.
"Ack! Yang stop it." Ruby yelled and pouted and crossed her arms.
"Sorry." Yang said as she scratched the back of her head.
"Thanks Ozpin. I am grateful." said Summer as she shook Ozpin's hand. "Well, it was nice living here I guess." Summer said as she looked down.
"Don't worry Sum! You can stay with me and Raven! It'll just be like old times!" Taiyang said as he beamed.
"I don't know Tai... I don't want to intrude or make Raven angry." Summer said as Tai looked confused then understood what Summer was saying.
"Raven doesn't care that we were a thing. I even talked it over with her before I left. She doesn't care, I think she wants to talk to her friend again." Taiyang said with a soft smile this time.
"Okay... I'll move back I guess." Summer said as Ruby smiled.
"Finally! I get to live with Yang again?" Ruby said as Yang and her hugged. It was rather hard though as Ruby was still in her hospital bed.
"Hmm... the doctor said you're alright and even ready to attend my school. Why don't we get out of here?" Ozpin suggested as he left. Everyone looked and agreed.
"Let's go guys!" Taiyang said as he pushed Summer out of the room.
The doctors came by and did one last check up and let Ruby stand up and walk. Ruby gathered her belongings and walked out with Yang. Everyone got in Taiyang's car and they left.
"Beacon... huh?" Ruby asked softly as she was very tired.
"Yep... everyone's there. Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren. You'll have fun, I promise." Yang said as she looked out the window.
"Awesome..." Ruby said.
Ruby found a position that was comfortable and fell asleep. Wondering what the future has stored for her.
And that's chapter two! I know what you're wondering! "Why Ghost Recon?". Well! Because I plan on having that involved far later into the story. But for now it's mainly Rainbow Six Siege related. Hope you enjoyed! Have a great day.
