Hello guys, the story is going to pick up now and I warn you these next three chapters are going to get rough, please leave comments on your thoughts. Enjoy.

Blake pulled up in an empty parking lot, put the truck in park and killed the engine. They had decided not to wear masks on this one so that the huntsman wouldn't spot them and either hide from them or attack them.

"Where do we start looking for this guy at?" Ruby asked as she climbed out of the truck and closed the door behind her with a bang.

"Not sure really I guess just ask around for a new guy whose asking about the White Fang, either way he should be easy to spot." Blake said as they walked around the front of the truck and got on the side walk.

"What makes you think that, we don't even have a clue what he looks like."

"Well, not many people carry weapons in this town that narrows it down, those that are will be members of the White Fang most likely and will be faunas like us, which narrows it down more. Also, if you have ever noticed Huntsmen and Huntresses stick out from others like a sore thumb. Kinda like main characters in an anime." Blake stated reasonably

"Oh, you like anime, I love anime I watch One Piece and Gunslinger Girl, Ohhh and..." Ruby started excitedly but Blake interrupted with an amused smile on her face.

"Let's have that conversation when we're not on a mission." she stated watching the red head blush cutely and scratch the back of her neck.

"I guess your right." Ruby chuckled.

Still smiling Blake spoke. "It'll be best if we split up and track this guy down." Ruby looked at her an emotion she couldn't name flickered across her face but she smiled and it was gone. "Yeah, I agree." She answered.

"You take the right half of the town I'll take the left, if you see him, don't engage just call me on my scroll and tail him till I meet up with you and I'll do the same." Blake issued her plan and Ruby nodded in agreement.

Blake turned and started to walk away.

"Blake." Ruby called making the dark haired girl turn around.

"Yes?"

"Be careful." Ruby said and Blake smiled. "You to." she said before running away.

Several hours later Ruby was leaning against a brick building. She was tired, her feet hurt, and she was getting more annoyed by the second.

She hadn't seen or heard anything of this Huntsman, and anyone she asked said they hadn't heard a thing, but she could tell that they were lying, they were being tight lipped about it and she couldn't blame them, they knew there was a white fang base close by and were probably hoping the huntsmen would come take care of it. She sighed and pushed off the wall and continued walking, hoping she could find this guy soon so she could get this over with, she didn't want to kill him but she had to.

'Maybe he's left the town." She thought to herself hopefully if he left they might have to scour the town longer but at least she wouldn't have to kill anyone else.

Her scroll buzzed in her back pocket. "Shit she found him." she mumbled to herself as her heart sank into her stomach. She fished her scroll out the icon was blank but she knew Blake's number. She tapped the screen turning it on and pressed it to her ear.

"Did you spot him?"

"No, nothing, I take it you haven't either."

"Nope, no anime main characters here."

Blake laughed at that making Ruby grin. "In all seriousness are you getting the cold shoulder from everyone also?" she questioned.

"Yeah no ones saying a word." Ruby said as she walked down an alleyway she hadn't been down yet.

"We may have to shake a few up if comes down to it."

"Lets hope not you know how I feel about this sort of thing."

"Yeah, don't worry I'll take care of the dirty work." Blake said jokingly. "Well lets get back to it." she added and the connection went dead. Ruby slid her phone in her back pocket and sighed.

"This day is going to be really long." she mumbled taking a step forwards. She felt a presence behind her but before she could react she felt a blade rest against her neck making her body freeze up but her heart slammed in her chest. 'Shit.' she thought she hadn't even noticed anyone was near her.

"Why is a little faunas girl looking for me?" the person behind her said, by the voice it was definitely a male, she couldn't place where his accent was from though, It had a weird twang to it she hadn't heard before.

Ruby swallowed trying to calm herself, her throat pressed against the cool metal of the blade.

"I'm here to warn you." Ruby said lightly making up her mind on what she wanted to do. "Leave here, don't look any farther into the White Fang base near here."

She felt him tense slightly. "So the rumors where true, there is one." He stated, from where his voice was coming from Ruby could tell that he was a lot taller than her.

"Yes, but you have to leave." Ruby urged him. The man chuckled. "No way deary, your going to lead me to that base, sense I'm guessing your a member of the White Fang." he pressed the blade against Ruby's throat, if it wasn't for her aura she would have been cut.

"I'm not a Faunus." Ruby said lowering her voice just in case.

"What?" the man said confused.

"The horns are fake, I'm an undercover agent working for Gold." She stated. He pulled the blade away from her a little but still kept it on her.

"I don't buy it." he growled.

"There on magneticly, give them a good pull." she told him. Hesitantly he reached up grabbing a tiny horn and gave it a pull popping it off.

"Well I'll be Damn." he muttered to himself, "You are human aren't you."

"Yes, and I'm on your side so please get this damn blade off my throat!" she snapped, the blade was driving her nerves crazy. Ever since getting into the White Fang she had started liking weapons less and less especially that close to her.

"Oh yeah, sure." he said moving the blade and stepped back, Ruby spun around quick enough to see him sliding the thin sword into a sheath on his hip, around the hilt was a revolver cylinder.

The man was much taller then her like she thought, he had long red hair that was pulled back in a ponytail he wore a black and blue suit. 'Weird outfit, but Blake was right he does look like he's from an anime.'

"So you work for Gold." the man said. Ruby nodded holding out her hand for her horn. "Yeah, but we don't have time for small talk you got to go before they find you and kill you." she said trying to rush him along.

"I can take care of myself." He boasted handing back her horn and she put it back in place

"I don't care your impeding on my mission so you got to go!" she snapped at him. The man shrugged and started walking backwards.

"Ok, Ok, I'll leave, good luck taking out those animals." he said before disappearing around the corner, his last comment made Ruby's eye twitch slightly out of anger. But she sighed in relief as he left.

'Now we just have to keep looking for him until they decided to call off the search.' she thought proud of herself. Sure she would be doing a lot of walking but she saved someone's life.

She wandered up and down the streets for near thirty minutes just thinking, then her scroll rang. She stopped, pulling it out of her pocket and sat on the curb as she looked at the number, Blake again. She answered it.

"No anime guy here." Ruby said.

"I'm on his tail, he's heading out of the town so I can't wait for you. I"ll activate my beacon so you can find my scroll." Blake said and the line went dead.

Ruby stared at her scroll in horror, "No, no, no!" she chanted standing up and ran following the red dot on the map.

Thanks to her semblance Ruby got there quickly. She looked at her phone, "They should be right here." she mumbled turning the corner and froze.

Blake took a hit from the huntsman and staggered back as her body shimmered, her aura running out. The man stepped forwards and swung his sword down blood filled the air as Blake fell to the ground.

Ruby stared, eyes wide open, she felt numb staring at the body, her breath became erratic and she screamed so loud her voice cracked as she unfolded crescent rose and fired it behind her flying towards the man that was on her side.
