Back in Menagerie at the Belladonna House, we see Blake, Alisa, Ciel and Nana walking in the halls having a conversation about the events that transpired earlier today.
"Ugh! Things didn't work out as we expected it to be." Alisa groaned.
"I hear you.'' Blake replied, "I can't believe that Ilia would say such claims, now our people are now more conflicted.'' she stated in concern.
"I wish I could do something to help.'' Nana said, "But I figured that they won't listen to humans given the history here.'' she admitted.
"I appreciate your thoughts, Nana.'' Blake said in gratitude as Nana smiled.
Ciel sighed, "On the bright side, I think a few people believes in you.'' she pointed out, "The problem is the rest that still needs a few more convincing.'' she stated.
"I just hope that everything won't turn into something worse." Alisa muttered.
"Hey girls!" a voice greeted. The girls look forward and saw a young male wolf-faunus, standing there leaning against a wall looking at them with a goofy grin. He has a short blue hair with a short side lock tied in a braid, he has yellows eyes and has dark eye bags underneath, red facial markings and a large wolf ears on top. He wears a red turtleneck long-sleeve jacket over a blue vest with a GoPro attached on his chest, black pants, white socks and red & white shoes. This is Rhodey Dogglas.
Solo Hero, Vanguard Academy Student and Hunter
Rhodey Dogglas aka Rhode Dogg
"Rhodey!" the girls exclaimed in surprise.
"It just got worst.'' Alisa grumbled.
Blake then turns to Nana, "Wait! You know this guy?'' she asked in surprise.
Nana nodded, "Um! Rhodey works as a Solo Hero at the Coalitions.'' she replied.
"How come you never mentioned him?'' Blake asked.
Nana rubs the back of her head, "Well... you see... he annoys us, so we left him out." she admitted.
"That... is understandable." Blake replied. Rhodey was once a student at Beacon and is nice guy all in all but was expelled for some reason. At first, Blake thought it was because he was a faunus but it turns out that everyone from the academy, both humans and faunus alike, hates Rhodey because of his extremely annoying personality! He loves nagging people, tattling on them, he has no sense of personal space, hygiene and privacy, and he asks a lot of questions even at things that made no sense. And when Blake met him personally, she was extremely annoyed that she did something she never thought she would do, she lashes out on him in a very Weiss Schnee like-fashion.
The only good thing about Rhodey, aside from being a generic nice guy, is that he is TOO oblivious to the hate aimed towards him including discrimination and racist remarks.
"Sup, girls! Did you miss me? Huh? Huh? Huh? Sure thing I do!" Rhodey said with a grin.
Alisa groaned as she placed a hand on her forehead, "Ugh... Rhodey... what are you doing?'' she asked.
"I thought you were currently on a mission at Ace-Africa searching for Carmen Sandiego?!" Ciel pointed out.
"Oh! I got kick out of the group for that mission and I was replaced by Galen Marek." Rhodey replied with a smile, "And when I heard that you guys went on a mission here on Remnant, I decided to join in!" he cheered, "I asked Miss Ashley to accompany me but she glares at me and when I discovered Lunette has joined the Coalition, I asked her to accompany me but she kicked me on the nards.'' he explained with a smile.
"No wonder.'' Alisa said.
"So, I decided to come here by myself and I did something amazing~" Rhodey cheered.
"What's that? Your annoyance level skyrocketed?!" Ciel pointed out indecorously.
"I have no idea what you're talking about." Rhodey replied, "Anyway... I had something to show you! Follow me at the living room area!" he said as merrily skips away.
The girls looks at each other in confusion, "Any idea what's he talking about?'' Blake asked.
"I don't know but I got a feeling that it's not good.'' Alisa admitted.
Later we see the girls and Rhodey alongside Ghira, Kali, Sun and Tukson gathered around the living area.
"All right! What is the meaning of this?'' Ghira demanded.
"And why is Rhodey here?'' Sun asked in annoyance as he glares at the annoyance.
"Rhodey said he wanted to show something to us." Nana replied.
Tukson placed both hands on his hips, "All right, Rhodey. What is it?'' he asked.
"First things first, I went inside the White Fang's Base!" Rhodey cheered.
This taken everyone aback, "WHAT?!" everyone shouted in shock.
Rhodey nodded, "Uh-huh! I sneak in the halls, I beaten down dozens of guards and I did something I never thought I would do!" he explained in excitement.
"You killed someone?'' Tukson asked in worry.
"No! I didn't kill anyone.'' Rhodey replied.
Tukson sighed in relief, "Oh good." he said.
"But I did kidnap their leader." Rhodey claimed as he pulls out a large trunk and open it which reveals an unconscious faunus woman inside tied up and gagged.
The female faunus is a Bengal tiger-based Faunus with orange eyes, dark complexion and wild black, chin-length hair with an asymmetrical bob style. Her Faunus trait manifested as an extra pair of ears, and her body was adorned with numerous tattoos resembling tiger stripes. She wore four golden earrings on three of her ears, one each on her human ears, and two on her left Faunus ear, as well as a small jewel on her forehead. She is dressed in a form of fitting black dress with light green accents on the rims of the outfit; the dress left most of her back open, had two long splits on the side which revealed a pair of black shorts, a shorter split in the front and a small squared keyhole. Over the dress, she wore a back-revealing red cape with gold accents, as well as a green waist cincher with red rims that had a black belt over it, which fastened a green pouch on her right hip. Aside from that, she wore black stockings in conjunction with green sandals that had red laces which were tied to her calves, as well as a black elbow length fingerless glove on her right hand. This is Sienna Khan, the current leader of White Fang.
White Fang Leader
Sienna Khan
Everyone's eyes widen at the sight of the bounded White Fang leader, it was shocking yet hilarious at the same time. Tukson's jaw dropped literally to the floor as Ghira stares at Rhodey, "How did you... how did you managed to do something like this?'' the Belladonna patriarch asked in shock as he knows that Sienna is a very strong woman and fighter nonetheless.
"I sneak behind her back and whack her so hard with a piece of bagel." Rhodey replied as he brought up a piece of bagel that is snapped in two.
"That... I did not see coming." Ghira admitted in bewilderment.
"Rhodey! Do you realized what you have done?" Blake demanded angrily.
"What are you getting angry about?'' Rhodey asked, "If there's anyone you should be mad at, is this woman, she's the reason why the White Fang turns violent. She gave the faunus a bad name.'' he stated.
"I hate to admit it but he has a point." Alisa begrudgingly agreed.
"Okay... there's definitely a good and bad thing from this numbskull's actions." Tukson spoke, "The good thing is... Adam won't be able to kill her but the bad thing is... Adam can easily take her position as leader of the White Fang.'' he stated, "So... with Sienna safe from death... our only goal right now is stopping Adam's planned attack at Haven.'' he pointed out.
Ghira nodded in understanding, "You're right." he agreed, "That would we be our sole focus for now." he said.
"But what is going to happen with her?'' Alisa asked referring to the still unconscious Sienna inside the trunk.
"We could send her out back to the wild or I take her to the Plumber's HQ and have her detain for a while." Rhodey suggested with a smile.
Tukson thought about it, "We'll do the latter." he replied as he turns to Ghira, "If that's fine with you." he said.
Ghira nodded, "She'll be safer that way.'' he replied.
Tukson nodded back as he turns to Rhodey, "Take her to Plumber's HQ.'' he ordered.
Rhodey let's out a squee as he closes the trunk, "Good to see you guys again but I had work to do! Toodles!' he said cheerfully as he left the room while dragging the trunk behind.
Everyone stayed in silence for a few minutes when Kali spoke, "Not that I don't trust that young man... but are you sure, he won't do anything to her?'' she asked in concern.
And with that said, Tukson immediately followed Rhodey, "Yo, hamlet!" he called, "You better treat her right! She might be the White Fang leader but she's still a woman!' he shouted.
bzzzttt...
Meanwhile back in Mistral at the house's yard, we see Oscar and Ruby(with her hood still on) are training hand to hand combat whilst Jaune, Nora, Ren, Mina and Brook are looking on.
"Man, Oz wasn't kidding." Jaune spoke, "Oscar's picking up on this stuff fast." he pointed out.
"I bet Oscar will do well if ever he was a trainee at the training camp.'' Mina admitted.
"I agree, yo-ho-ho-ho!" Brook chuckled in agreement.
Oscar hits Ruby straight in her face. Ruby recoils from the blow and looks visibly angry, "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" Oscar apologized.
Ruby then hits Oscar back and he lands a few feet away on ground as Jaune and Nora wince, "Oooh! I wonder if Ruby can do same thing at her rival back at the camp.'' Mina mused.
"Ha! Yes! I did it!" Ruby cheered but in her brief moment of cheering is replaced with concern as she looks back, "Oscar?" she asked.
"You forgot to engage your Aura, again." Ozpin pointed out.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Oscar grumbled.
"Because this method makes you less likely to forget." Ozpin replied as Oscar groans and gets to his feet, "Mind if I give it a shot?" he asked as Oscar stiffens briefly while his eyes glow in a yellow light, "Not bad, Miss Rose. But Oscar doesn't have the years of training that you do. Or I do." he said as Oscar's body shimmers green as Ozpin engages their Aura.
Jaune and Nora realize what Ruby is in for while Mina and Brook watches curiously.
Oscar then determinedly approaches Ruby, "Oh, ha, well, maybe we should uh... take a break." she said nervously.
Ozpin attacks Ruby with a few punches aimed at her head, forcing her onto the defensive until he lands a blow to her face which knocks her back several feet. Ozpin closes the gap with a leap and kicks her in the face. Ruby leaps at Ozpin to throw a left cross which Ozpin evades by ducking and retaliates with a headbutt from below, luckily Ruby's hood never fell off during the spar.
"Ouch." Nora winced,
"The next time you want to throw a left cross, remember to push off with the appropriate foot. And as always, do be aware of any openings." Ozpin advised.
"Gooooot it." Ruby replied as she got up as Ozpin relinquishes his control and Oscar falls to the ground, panting. Ruby quickly ran towards him, "Oh! Hey. Are you okay?" she asked in concern.
"How is this so exhausting?" Oscar asked.
Ren then spoke, "Your body isn't used to this kind of training, not to mention generating a defensive Aura on your own." he pointed out, "It takes intense concentration at first, but in time it will become second nature, allowing you to deflect attacks and gradually heal your wounds. After that, you can begin focusing on your Semblance, whatever that may be." he explained.
"Semblance?" Oscar asked.
"You know! Like your very own superpower! Everybody's got one." Nora cheered, "It's just a matter of finding it and mastering it." she said, "Ruby moves super fast, Electricity makes me stronger, Ren can mask emotions, and Jaune... can, uh, um. Hmm." she tried to say something for Jaune but can't find the right words to say.
"I can't do anyth—" Jaune tried to say but was interrupted.
"Jaune's like you!" Ruby exclaimed as she takes Oscar by the hand and leads him over to Jaune, "He hasn't found his Semblance yet, but we all know he will. And you will, too. We all just have to try and help each other get stronger." she pointed out.
"Cool." Oscar said.
"A common philosophy is that a warrior's Semblance is a part of who they are. Some say your personality and character can define your Semblance while some claim that it is the other way around." Ren explained.
"Kinda like Quirks and Devil Fruits abilities." Mina stated.
Ren nodded, "Of course, there are still many who don't see a connection at all." he pointed out.
"It's hard to know when you know sometimes. Ren's Semblance was unlocked from intense stress." Nora explained.
"And mine kicked in during training one day." Ruby admitted.
Oscar turns to Nora, "And what about you?" he asked.
"Oh. Struck by lightning. Didn't die. Craaaazy Thursday." Nora replied nonchalantly.
"I just don't understand what's wrong with me." Jaune admitted, "I train and I meditate." he said.
"But hey... at least you had an awesome Gift.'' Brook pointed out.
Jaune rolls his eyes, "As awesome as my Gift is, it's pretty useless in battle." he grumbled.
Oscar's eyes glow momentarily as Ozpin takes control of his body again, "Don't worry, Mr. Arc." he reassured, "True your Gift may appear to be useless but if you think about it, having a Gift like that has it's fair share of advantage, so your journey is far from over." he advised, "And the same might be said for all of you. Unlocking your Semblance isn't the end. It can still grow and evolve. Providing you're willing to put in the work, who knows what could happen." he stated.
Ruby smiled, "Then let's get back to it." she said.
Before anyone could say something, Eijiro came out from the house using the backdoor, "Guys! Guys! Guys!" he called out getting their attentions, "Additional help has arrived!" he announced with a smile.
"Realy? Yo-ho-ho-ho!" Brook laughed in glee, "Who did they send?'' he asked.
"It's the members of the Triumph Division!" Eijiro cheered.
Suddenly, a group of four males and a baby enters the backyard. The first male is a tall young man with a widespread build. He had a black hair and dark eyes. He wears a dark-blue school uniform over a yellow shirt with the words 'kill' in it written in kanji, dark-blue pants and white sneakers.

The Triumph Division members got into a line as they did various poses, "You called for assistance?" Oga spoke, "They did the right thing to send us." he claimed with a grin.
"Dyaabu!" Baby Bel chirped in agreement.
Team RNJR, Mina, Eijiro and Brook can only stare at them in awe, Jaune even fainted at their appearance. Ozpin then let's out a chuckle, "This is going to be... an interesting journey." he claimed with a smile.
