A/N: Welcome guys, to part one of the end of the first volume of RWBY. So far I had a blast writing this story and I hope you guys also enjoyed reading it too. After these next two chapters, I may start writing for my second story which will either be named ''The Fall of the Deadmen'' or ''Death starts in Autumn''. Either one I choose, I hope I piqued your interest and will make sure to deliver something better than my first story. I will post a few chapters, and if you enjoy it, I will continue it alongside ''The knight from a bleak womb and a shattered moon'' or T.K.B.W.S.M.(I don't know why I made it an acronym).

Like I've said before, thank you guys so much for supporting me so far and taking an interest in this story, I doubt I would have had the motivation to do it without you.

Now I assume you want to get in the action, so here I present you part one the finale of the first volume of RWBY

And, ACTION!

Mave POV:

This isn't good.

''You don't understand, do you!?''

''Blake! I know that not every Faunus on the face of this world is part of the White Fang, but every single one that is part of that group is probably just a demented freak!''

''You're wrong!''

They have been fighting like this all the way from the shop to our room. It's been almost an hour and they haven't shown any signs of stopping soon.

Ruby and Yang just kept staring awkwardly at the show in front of them produced by them.

I was glaring at both of them, anger slowly but surely building inside of me at this idiotic argument in front of me.

'Ugh! This whole argument would have ended by now if both of them said the actual words that needed to be said. It's clear that both of them are hiding something, and I think I know what.'

''Ummm...Yang?'' asked Ruby with worry in her tone.

''Yes sis?''

''Should we stop them?''

''Well...I think-

''*grunt* I'll handle it. Yang, stay by the door. Ruby, stay by the window.''

''Why?''

''In case one of them tries to run.''

''Huh?''

''Just do it!''

When both girls are in the designated place, I take off my helmet and approach the still fighting teammates. They don't even notice that i'm right next to them, and his only angers me more.

''ENOUGH!'' I scream, my voice startling everyone in the room. Weiss and Blake turn to face me with anger, that is immediately transformed into fright. My anger and annoyance dwarfed both of theirs combined. It's time I became a bit harsh and actually solve this issue.

''*cough*Are the both of you done bitching?!''

They all gasped, clearly not expecting my comment, shock enveloping their features, especially Blake's and Weiss's

''What?''

''Excuse me?''

''I guess you haven't realized yet,... but neither of you is doing anything but adding more fuel to the fire with your 'arguments'.''

Now they all look at me, wondering what I'm talking about.

''It's clear from a mile away from the way you speak... that both of you are hiding something. And you are either too scared or too proud to say it.''

If I'm reading their expressions correctly, I guessed right, Weiss staying still as a kid being lectured by her parent, and Blake fidgeting, starring at the door as if it would save her life.

''Now, make this easier on yourselves and talk about those secrets, like you promised weeks ago you would do, or I will talk about them myself.''

'' Mave, you can't seriously think it can be this ea-

''Shut it!''

Blake's mouth immediately locked up, not a sound threatening to escape her lips.

''Now Weiss, you have such a grudge on the White Fang. Why?'' This wasn't a question, it was a demand, and I made sure it sounded just like one. At this, Weiss almost started breaking down, tears almost leaving from her eyes.

''You don't understand Mave!*Sob*N-Neither of you know just many attempts the White Fang took to try and take my life*sob* or the life of others just because of the Name Schnee!''

After this, Weiss was letting the tears flow freely, not even bothering to wipe them from her eyes or cover them, but I was not bothered, since we were finally getting to solving this argument.

''*Sob* M-My father*sob* always got reports on how they ruined s-something, *sob*, and when he came home, he would be so angry, t-that he, *sob*, t-that he w-would.*sob*''

I placed a hand on her shoulder stopping what she was about to say, trying to comfort her.

'I guess we both had bad father figures'

''That's it Weiss. Let it all out.'' She cried, letting go of all the pain that has accumulated on top of her just because of a name that attracts attention, good and bad. After a few minutes of comforting Weiss, she stopped crying, taking only a few raspy breaths from time to time. After I made sure she was Ok, I turned my attention to Blake, who almost reached her breaking point just from my gaze alone. I can imagine she will have a stronger reaction if what I think about her is true.

''Blake, will you tell us now why do try and protect the White Fang, or will I have to say it myself?''

''I...I...AHHH!''

''Blake!'' She made a beeline to the door, not knowing that I had Yang stay near it in case she would do this. She stops her enough so that I can grab her by the back of her shirt and put her down on the bed. I place the pole of Jormungandr through the door handles to make sure it won't open, and faced Blake with a cold, disappointed gaze.

''UGH! I was part of the White Fang alright! I was in the Fang for as long as I can remember! I took part in every rally, In every protest, hoping that we would be able to change how the faunus were treated by the people and the large companies!''

To emphasize her point she removed her bow, letting her cat ears loose from their trap.

''Blake...'' Yang was worried about her partner.

''It was never supposed the end with violence! I never wanted any of that! I never believed that violence would solve a thing yet they do! They believe that violence will work, and in a way, it did. All the stores that didn't allow faunus now allows them, and the Faunus are not openly harassed anymore. They achieved this with fear, and fear never solves a problem, it only makes it more difficult later. They are misguided and think the have no other choice but to do what they are doing now! I never wanted to take part in this! So I left! I left the Fang and came here to Beacon, hoping that one day as a huntress I would be able to help the Faunus, not antagonize them more!''

The rest of us had nothing more to say after Blake's outburst. We just stood there, looking at her, letting it all sink in. She was part of a group that is now nothing more than terrorists, that she believes are just misguided, and Weiss was antagonized by said group just because of her family name.

I stood in between them, placed a hand on their shoulders to try and calm them both.

''Now, apologize to each other.'' I may have been the one to break their dams, but I will also be the one to help them build a stronger one.

They stared at each other for a minute, thinking of the correct words, since one misplaced word could start another fight. It was Weiss who took a breath and started to apologize.

''Blake, I truly am sorry for what I have said. I was a child back then and I always had bad experiences with the White Fang, and it only let me to believe that they are nothing more than scum, but it seems I may have been wrong. I never took the moment to question myself if there are people from the other side that thought the same as you, and I didn't know about the treatment of the faunus from my father, until a year ago. After I learned what he did to the Schnee name, I came here in hope to clear it of all the bad things assigned to it. ''

''Weiss, I'm sorry for not understanding that you have been on the receiving end of the attacks of the Fang while you were a child just because of your father's atrocities. I'm sorry I took my anger on you on things you are not at fault for. I'm sorry for thinking you never cared about what happened to the faunus, it's just that, I don't want to believe the White Fang are the cause of these thefts.''

They quickly rise up and give each other a hug, all the anger and sadness turned into understanding and forgiveness.

''Yay! The team has resolved a conflict once again!''

I'm happy that everything has been solved, but there still are issues that need to be solved.

I clear my throat, getting the attention.

''Girls, I'm happy you were able to finally end this fight but...there is sill the main issue.*cough*We need to find who is stealing all this dust and if the White Fang is responsible for all the thefts or not.''

''Well, it could be Torchwick. He never was caught by the authorities.'' Said Ruby.

''It could be him, but I can't understand why he would need so much dust? Maybe a large heist?'' Yang asked unsure.

''Or an attack.'' I mumble. I look at Weiss.

''Weiss, *cough* is there any large shipment of dust arriving any time soon?''

''Yes there is but I don't know the exact date. It could be tomorrow or a day in this coming week. Why?''

Blake's ears perked up, getting my idea

''If the shipment is large, there is a chance that they will come to steal it, and we can catch them while they are doing it.''

''Then tomorrow we go back in the city,..learn when the shipment arrives and catch them red handed.'' Ruby says, entering leader mode.

''Sounds like a plan.'' Yang says and the rest of us nod.

''So...What now?''

''It's still a bit early to go to sleep, but I guess whe should just relax.''

''I guess you're right.*cough*I'll go and change out and change out of the armor then.'' i walk up to my bed, get the undershirt and pants that I have and go in the bathroom and change my clothes. The scars on my body still as ugly as they will ever be, reminding me of all the pain I have endured just for a stupid ritual that took away a part of my life. I did get the soul of the beowulf and as such it also became a part of me. I remember how at first we did nothing but fight each other for dominance over my body, but after two years, we both realize that we are two sides of the same coin, and now one can't exist without the other, so we reached an agreement, and now he is close to being a friend.

'I still haven't shown them everything. I guess I should, since I just said about not having secrets, and I'm sure they want to know about them, but at the same time I don't want to worry them. What do you think Fenrir?'

I close my eye and breathe slowly. It's been a while since I last had a conversation with him, and his thought about this would be great. I wait, until I hear a howl in the back of my mind. Fenrir has woken up.

'Ahh maverick, it's been too long since we last talked.'

The voice is dark and guttural, echoing in my mind.

If you want my opinion on the human girls, they are pure in hearth and soul. They gave you this chance at a new life where killing to survive is what you only need to do and be respected for it. They deserve to know about your life just as much as me if not more. '

'You're right, They deserve to know. They've already seen some of them before. I shouldn't worry.'

'Of course. They care about you, some more than you might even think'

'What?'

Don't play stupid. I know about your interest in the doll of snow. Ahh, such a petite and comforting figure you desire, to embrace her entirety and caress her shape. *chuckle* Be sure you don't break her when you both begin playing.'

'Fenrir! Enough! Too early to think like that!*sigh* Just go.'

'Heh heh heh. Of course. I will wait here in the depths and observe, until you contact me again.

'Damn wolf and his animalistic desires. We haven't even started dating yet.'

Thanks to my small conversation with the wolf, I decided to not wear the undershirt, letting my upper body bare for the entire world to see. As soon as I exit the bathroom I hear the collective gasps of my teammates. They weren't all that surprised, since they already know what I've been through, but the amount of scars on my chest, stomach and back is still shocking. I still had more visible flesh than skin, but all of the where fixated on the stab wound around my stomach. I sit on my bed and face them.

''Ask anything you want about me...and i'll answer.''

They looked at me in silence, thinking about what to ask. It was Yang who was first to ask, and I knew what she wanted to say.

Um..H-how did you get that one Mave?'' she points to the wound around my stomach, as expected.

''Stabbed with a small serated spear and twisted.''

''O-oh oh my Dust. How could they such a thing?''

''Fanatical religion and ritualistic nonsense. Any other question?''

''How did you escape?'' asked Weiss

''After the ritual, I broke the chains and...killed everyone in my sight *cough*''

They knew that I killed everyone, but they were still surprised.

''Have you tried running before?''

''Ohh I did, Only to be captured later and shoved into an iron maiden.'' They all wince ath the mention of the torture device.''

''Um, how are you so tall?'' Ruby asked innocently''

''Heh. Just my natural height.'' She sighed in relief

In this moment, Yang decided to ask one more question, with a large grin on her face.

''How big are you big boy~?''

Weiss's and Blake's faces quickly reddened, Yang's grin became larger, all while Ruby didn't get it.

''What do you mean Yang'

''I'll tell you when you're older. Now Mave, how big are you eh?''

''13 inches in length and and 5 and a half inches in circumference when I'm happy.'' I answer her completely straight faced. The three of them became even redder, Weiss covering her mouth, Yang's left eye twitching slightly mouthing a subtle 'what the hell', and Blake is nosebleeding a bit. Ruby was still oblivious to the whole thing.

What the fuck was this.

''Well, it got rid of the sad mood, so thanks for that Yang.''

'Sure..."

''I don't know about you but I'm going to sleep... tomorrow we have a mission to do. Goodnight.''

...

...

...

''How the hell does he walk comfortably with that thing?''

''YANG! How could you ask that!''

''He said we could ask anything!''

While Weiss was scolding Yang about her indecency, Blake was remembering that one time she walked up on him while he was doing the business, her smut filled mind creating a few scenarios, before shaking her head and slapping her face to get out of her daze.

One thing is for certain.

She can 100 percent confirm what he said is true.

''I think we should all go get some sleep. Mave is right, tomorrow we have work to do.''

They all changed soon after and went in their respective beds, all of them slowly falling to sleep.

Tomorrow will be be their first real mission as huntsmen.

Next morning; Blake Pov:

We all woke early next morning, got our equipment and left with the first bullhead to Vale. Mave brought both the sword and the axe with him. We discussed the plan on our way to the city and it goes like this: Weiss and Ruby will go to the CCT tower to get information about when the Schnee dust convoy will arrive. It's the most reliable source but also the longest time consuming since the tower is almost half an hour away from the bullhead transport. Yang will go and meet with an acquaintance of hers. I will go and inspect the crime scene for any indication about the implication of the Fang or not. Mave will stick around in the city and rush to anyone of us if problems arise while gathering any intel he can from The bullhead touched down an we all exited the transport.

''Remember guys, stick to the plan and everything should go smooth. Everyone remember what they have to do?'' Mave asked and the rest of us nodded. We all split up and went about or things. I was on the road to the dust shop when I heard someone being chased.

''Hey! Get back here you no good stowaway!''

Immediately after that I see a Monkey faunus with blonde hair run past me, giving me a wink, being chased by two sailors with the Schnee logo on their chests. The faunus jumped on a small building and running away.

I shake out from my sturpor and decide to follow him, since he may know something about the shipment if he is being chased by men from the Schnee company.

Ruby and Weiss Pov:

''So it's been five minutes, twenty five more to go.'' said Ruby

''Come on Ruby, I know it's a long way to the tower but we have to get there. It's the most secure way to gather information.''

''I know, but still, it's so faaarr.''

It's true, since the city of Vale is very large, and the CCT tower is at the center, while the bullhead transport from and to Beacon is at the edge of the residential district near the water, while the tower is located in the center of the industrial district.

Weiss turned to face Ruby as she was about to take a corner and say something, but she didn't notice the orange haired girl, bumped into her and fell to the ground.

''I'm sorry! I haven't been paying attention.''

''Oh don't worry, everything is fine. Here let me help.''

The girl grabbed Weist and easily hoisted her back to her feet. Ice Queen(HEY!) looked at her for a moment until she remembered yesterday.

''Hey. You're the girl that me and Mave tripped over yesterday.''

''Yes I remember. *giggle* He was quite fast.''

''I'm so sorry for that, but we where in a hurry, we still are now, and we didn't get to apologize.''

''It's no problem, I was a pleasure to meet you. My name is Penny, yours?''

''Weiss."

"Ruby. I'm sorry Penny but we have to go now. Bye friend.''

''Bye.''

We go around the street and resume our walk until an orange blur came right in front of us.

''What did you call me?'' she asked Ruby

''W-What?''

''You called me your friend. Am I your friend?''

Ruby looked at Weiss, who was shaking her head side to side.

''Um..Sure'' A facepalm was soon heard after.

''Sensational! We can paint our nails, try out new clothes and talk about cute boys!''

''Weiss, is this what it felt like when you met me?''

''No. She seems far more coordinated.''

''Can I come with you?''

''Penny, what we are doing might be dangerous.''

''Don't worry friend Ruby, I'm combat ready!''

''You hardly look the part.''

''But you wear a dress.''

''It's a combat skirt!''

''Yeah!'' Ruby lowfived Weiss

''So, can I come?''

''Sure...Why not.'' A second facepalm was heard that day.

''Geez let's go, we have stuff to do!''

''Wait for us!''

Ruby and Weiss resumed their journey to the tower alongside a Penny, who was apparantely here to participate in the Vytal tournament.

The day was only starting to get weird.

A/N: So this was the first part of the end of volume three. I wanted to end it all in a single chapter, but it would have been too long, and since most chapters are around 3000 words, I decided to split this one in two.

Fenrir will appear again some other time since he will become a much more important part of the story later.

Bye.
