A Shock to Ozpin!
Back at Beacon, Ozpin had just gotten done shutting down the party that the students and a majority of the faculty were in the process of planning upon learning of Jaune's expulsion. Many were quite vocal about the blonde 'getting what he deserved', but were quickly silenced by the vengeful members of Team RWBY. Their first targets were Team CRDL and the remnants of Team JNPR. And let me tell you, it's not pretty.
Yang was currently busy punching Pyrrha repeatedly in the face as hard as she possibly could. Her rage leaving her blind to any possible long term damage she could be causing, but knowing that the Spartan's Aura would prevent any long lasting damage to the red haired girl. So she could punch her as hard and as many times as she wanted.
"So, you think this is funny!? You think just because of a few papers, Jaune Arc, the only decent guy at this stupid school, deserves to be cast aside and sent into the Emerald Forest to die because of a few lousy papers!? Especially after his whole family was murdered by a madman!?" roared Yang as she continuously punched Pyrrha in the face, keeping a firm grip on the girl's hair.
The Spartan girl already had blood running down her possibly broken nose, a black eye that was swollen shut, and a busted lip. At this point, she's lucky to still have all her teeth and that she hasn't lost all of her brain cells from all those punches she's been taking, much less remaining alive from the beating she's getting.
"NO-HO-HO!" Pyrrha groaned/screamed in pain.
"WRONG ANSWER!" Yang roared as she began to punch harder.
And she would have continued this relentless attack, had it not been for Ozpin using some unique Aura technique to calm the raging girl's temper a little bit. It actually caused the blonde brawler to calm down enough to stop using the redhead as a punching bag.
She turned to the headmaster, her eyes clearly asking why he was stopping her. His answer certainly justified him stopping her this time.
"Jaune wouldn't want you to do this, Yang." he said, forgoing professionalism in favor of just being the friend his students needed right now. "Besides… she's not worth it. None of them are."
His words seemed to do the trick. Yang simply let go of Pyrrha and allowed her to fall to the ground. Ren and Nora were quick to help their injured teammate, even though they themselves were also injured. Ren had a deep gash across his back from when he narrowly dodged being cleaved in half by Gambol Shroud and multiple bullet wounds from Crescent Rose's sniper rifle. Nora herself was suffering from a stab wound in her hammer swinging shoulder and the effects of a few types of Dust.
Her legs were covered in frost from when Weiss froze her legs with Ice Dust, she had a few scorch marks on her clothes and second degree burns from Fire Dust, and her head was still aching from the Earth Dust Glyph attack Weiss used against her. Truly, the Schnee heiress has proven herself to be a very deadly adversary when angered.
"So, when the bitch here is in pain and needs her friends, you come running right to her." Yang said with her hair shadowing her eyes, clearly referring to Pyrrha. "But when Jaune, the boy who viewed you guys as family, needs you the most you turn your backs on him like the cowards you are."
She glared at them with so much hate in her now red eyes, the negativity would have been too much, even for the strongest of Grimm.
"You all shame the once proud name of Team JNPR!" Yang growled.
Having said her piece and done her part, she and the rest of RWBY decided to go out into Vale for a little bit. They felt like they needed to drown out their misery with movies and junk food. They're in no mood to deal with anybody else today and are probably going to find a hotel to stay at for the night. Not that Ozpin or Glynda blamed them.
They both understand what it's like to lose close friends, especially when something like this happens because of another student being unable to let go of bruised pride and an over inflated ego. They can only hope and pray that Jaune manages to survive out there and make a name for himself in the real world, where the councils of the kingdoms have not romanticised what it means to be a Hunter to the point of the true meaning being lost to the new generation.
"OZ! WE GOT A PROBLEM!"
Ozpin and Glynda looked to an open window to find a crow flying in before it turned into a man in a poof of smoke. A man that the two Beacon teachers know all too well, and was currently gasping for air as he stood with one hand on his chest still not used to flying that fast for long distances.
"Qrow, what's wrong?" Ozpin asked.
Qrow has graying black, spiky hair, dull red eyes, and slight stubble along his jawline. With a red, tattered cloak, he wears a gray dress shirt with a long tail, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. He also wears a ring on his right index finger, two other rings on his right ring finger, and a necklace with a crooked cross-shaped pendant. Qrow's bangs are down most of the time, but he sometimes pushes his hair back when fighting. In addition, his hair is made to look like it is composed entirely of feathers.
His sudden appearance was also enough to stop Yang and Ruby in their tracks Midway through the door.
"UNCLE QROW!?" they gasped.
"Hey, Runt! Firecracker! How's it goin'?" the man greeted his two nieces after catching his breath.
Almost instantly, his two nieces were upon him like moths to a flame. They had so many questions that they felt needed to be answered. And with how fast they were babbling going Ruby, Yang, Ruby, Yang, in that exact order of questions, one would barely be able to understand them.
"What are you doing here?"
"What's so important?"
"Does it have to do with Jaune!?"
"Is he okay!?"
"How'd you get here so fast!?"
"Please tell us Jaune's not dead!"
That was as far as they got before Qrow effectively shut them up by covering their mouths with his hands.
"Kids, I know you have questions. But they're going to have to wait. I gotta speak to Oz over here about your missing Arc friend. So why don't you two run along with your team while the grown-ups talk." Qrow said.
"There's no need to send them away, Qrow." Glynda said. "If this does indeed concern Jaune, then team RWBY has a right to know."
At first, the scruffy looking man wanted to argue, but a look from him and a threatening gesture from Glynda was more than enough to stop all arguments against the subject. So, with a heavy sigh, Qrow reluctantly took a seat at one of the cafeteria tables and began to tell them what he found.
"Okay, so it all started earlier today. I was in my crow form just flying home from a routine Grimm extermination mission, you know, the usual stuff, when I noticed something out of place. My nieces' blonde friend, who they often refer to as a surrogate brother in their letters back home, walking through the Emerald Forest without armor or weapons. I thought it was odd and decided to follow him should he end up in a situation where he might get killed. But he didn't seem to know where he was going, and was just following his feet. Next thing I know, he's at this part of the forest that's literally decorated in gems and spiderwebs talking to some half woman half spider thing!" Qrow reported.
"A mythological Arachne?" Glynda asked with a raised eyebrow. "I may not be much of a historian, but even I know that such things don't exist."
But no sooner than when Glynda said that did a new, female voice make itself know. By singing a rather iconic song that I know you're all familiar with if you've seen the old fashioned Spider-Man cartoons.
"~Spider-Man! Spider-Man! Does whatever a spider can!~"
Team RWBY, Ozpin, Glynda, and Qrow begin looking around nervously as they try to find the origins of the voice. Only for Weiss to feel something sticky land on her shoulder. Looking up, the Schnee Heiress's eyes widened to almost comical proportions as she began whimpering at the sight of something that would haunt her nightmares forever.
"What is it, Weiss?" Ruby asked.
"Up… up… up there…!" the white haired girl stuttered.
Everybody looked to the ceiling to see a pair of glowing red eyes peeking out of the shadows. But the song continued and seemed to be loudest in that particular spot.
"~Spins a web any size, catches thieves just like flies. Look out!~
Descending down on a single strand of spider silk like some sort of Grimm spider from hell, the Weaver emerged from the shadows, grinning as though she was going to murder all of them. Her fangs glistening with venom that dripped ominously down to the floor as she sang the last verse of her little song.
"~Here comes the Spider-Man!~"
Needless to say, everyone who was gathered started screaming at the top of their lungs at the creepy entrance of the spider woman who emerged from the shadows of the ceiling. And I get the feeling things are only going to get whackier from here on out.
But the Weaver dropped the scary face and just watched as the crowd ran around the cafeteria like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off. Putting a finger to her chin, she had to wonder...
"Did they not like the song?" she asked herself out loud.
*To Be Continued…*
Okay, that's it for this chapter. Next one will be longer. I just need to brush up on my Spider-Man and Justice League before I do anything else for this story. Please be sure to leave a review telling me what you guys thought of the chapter. See you all next time!
