Today February 1, 2015 a great man died. That man was Monty Oum, the creator of RWBY, may he rest in peace.
Also RWBY volume 6 is amazing! Too bad it's only on Rooster Teeth (if you haven't watched it yet, go do so this will be here when you get back). Now a little warning, the final chapter of this volume will come out on Valentine's and then volume 3&4 should start coming out on April 6th. Yes volume 3 and 4 will come out as one due to the shortness that I plan volume 4 to be. Anyways have fun.
I do not own RWBY or anything else that happens to be in this story.

"So, who thinks we can talk this thing down?" the question gave Kevin a few looks, to which he just shrugged. "Just a thought."
The tense stare down between the grimm and the hunters ended as Evan rushed the humanoid, only to be choke-slammed into the concrete by the thing. It was about to continue the assault on Evan before multiple Dust crystals and slugs connected with its skin, sending it stumbling backwards.
While the others attacked the grimm Nico dragged Evan out of the crater.
"Shura a little help!" he called as he struggled to lift the heavy body of their friend, and together they got him out of the way before hearing the thing scream and seeing Dr. Pence go flying into the tunnel.
"HOLY SHIT!" came out of Kevin's mouth as a clawed hand appeared out of nowhere to take a swipe at him.
"Can this thing teleport?"
"It looks like it can, Nico get Evan back on his feet."
Shura then activated his duster and semblance before throwing his glaive at the thing, only for it to teleport behind him and get a stomach full of burning fist. As it bent over with the punch to the gut, Shura called back the glaive and attempted to cut its head off. But it teleported at the last second back to its original position outside the cage.
As they regrouped under the monsters eyes they couldn't help but notice that the doctor still hadn't came out of the tunnel. "Do you think we need to worry about the doc?"
"I don't know, but I do know that you need to guard the other two until Evan's back up." said Shura as red Dust made its way into both hands.
"And what about you?" he asked, even if the answer was obvious.
"I'm going to give it hell." and he charged for the thing attacking it multiple times, only for it to regenerate or teleport away. At least that's what happened until a metal fist embedded itself into the thing with the engines roaring, flames flowing, and spikes glowing.
"That was for the cheap-shot." stated Evan as they looked into the deep hole that it made on the way down.
They turned to walk away when a sound broke the silence of the room. The sound of inhuman screaming and ripping of flesh, then all was silent again.
"The hell was that?" Kevin asked as he aimed his gun at everything that was moving. Then the lights went off.
"Alright everyone be prepared, this thing has proven to be a pain in the ass so far. There is no reason for us to go easy on it." came Shura's voice at the same time as Evan told him to focus on his semblance.
"Guys, it's in the tunnel, but there seems to be multiple tendril like things coming out of its body." about the time he finished he had to jump out of the way of one of the things as it slammed downwards.
"Well, anyone have any ideas? We can't fire anything that way without the risk of hitting Dr. Pence, and the things are keeping us at a distance." Shura said in the midst of using the light off his coat to dodge the tendrils coming his way.
"Yeah we kill it!" shouted Evan as he rushed it in blind rage. "Come here you little shit!"
He went to punch it only for it to dodge and the wall crumbled under the strength of the punch. The grimm tilted it's head, grabbed him by the ankle with one of its tendrils, and sent him into the other wall before throwing him into the cage and closing the gate, and from nowhere the tendril was cut off by a flying projectile.
Distracted by the pain, Slenderman didn't realize the figure behind him even as it caught fire. "Batters up!" called the figure as it kicked Slenderman into the room to be attacked by a lightning charged blade sending it flying yet again while missing one of its arms.
"Nitoryu: Sai Kuru"came the third figures voice as he attacked making deep wounds on the thing and sending it flying towards the now broken gate.
"RRRRAAAAHHHH!" and into the fist of a even more enraged Evan. whose punch caved in the monsters entire body.
However before they could call it a day it started to reform until a red Dust crystal flew into its wounds and exploded in a glorious ball of fire.
"If that thing gets back up I will personally pound it into paste." said the giant as they watched the fire burn.
"Hey kids, a little help here." came their teacher who was now leaning on his sword while walking towards them. Nico and Kevin helped him to their spot to make sure it died in the blaze.
Unknown
A priest dressed in black came into the building smoking a cigarette. "Damn kid, way to bring down the house."
The figure then jumped down the hole in the floor. While walking down the tunnel he came to a male on the floor.
"Mr. Nickleson, the church has decided you are too dangerous to live." with this the male looked up showing a shattered mask and a scarred face where the mask cut into the face.
"...you…"
"Yes, me." and the priest drew a gun from beneath his robes and shot him in the head before walking away into the night.

By the time the grimm finished burning it was morning and Nico had somehow fixed up a batch of coffee for everyone.
"Alright so anyone learn a lesson yesterday?" asked Dr. Pence.
"Yea, Evan has a colossal Temper." said Kevin before ducking a swing from said berserker.
"Well, Grimm can be contained somehow." Shura said stroking his chin.
"Well, yes on both accounts, but this world is a dangerous place. Sometimes you won't be able to make the right choice, or be able to overcome an opponent by yourself. But we exist so that at the very least we can cause some damage to the enemy before we have to throw in the towel. Let this be a lesson to all of you on both your strengths and weaknesses." he said before finishing his coffee. "Ahhh, I needed that. So come on get up, it's time to report back to Ozpin.
1 hour later
"..and that is our report"
"Very well," the headmaster said from behind his desk. "So, in summary you busted into the house, killed the three commanders of a criminal family and their soldiers, fought and defeated a humanoid grimm, found the body of the leader of the family, had coffee, nice choice by the way, and contacted the police with a warning about any other member of their family." he said from behind his desk before sipping his drink.
"Yes sir?" Shura half asked with a questioning voice.
"Well done, now I believe the other freshman have their missions any minute now." he continued but Evan didn't listen as his scroll buzzed a text.
When he pulled it out he was enraged as he interrupted his talk. "Headmaster, I'm going to need access to the Mt. Glenn tunnels." before showing them the text.
There on the screen was a picture of a beaten Neo with multiple bruises and cuts, Roman's cane lifting her head by the chin and the text under reading.
'Meet me at Mt. Glenn alone, or she dies. Oh and you have until midnight'
End
Yay the Laughing Jack arc is done! Now as for the text at the end, I did hint since the beginning something would happen between them, then Neo was brought into the picture and I'm sure some of you knew she would be involved. The figure from the church was brought into the story a few chapters ago (Bar scene) and he is actually from an older anime and has a big fan base, so good guessing about who he is (He was a priest in that anime and he talks about his friend from the same anime in the bar scene if you want a hint).
Anyways have a nice day!
