I don't own RWBY or Star Wars (Otherwise we'd have an Obi Wan movie and a Thrawn movie instead of Solo and Rogue)
yada yada about real people not being connected.
The shuttle shuttered slightly as it settled onto the landing pad near the docks of Cloud City, a few officials from the city greet them. No one of great importance just a few advisors and officers managing to arrive before the Imperial troops began exiting the shuttle their arrival clearly unexpected. The stormtroopers exited securing the pad as Winter and Weiss walked down the ramp barely sparing the officials a second glance as they walk right past them. The bewildered men following after chattering nervously at the two Imperial officers while the stormtroopers follow behind marching in step the sound of their boots clanking on the ground sounding disturbingly loud, "We are here to speak with Administrator Calrissian. He is in his office I presume?" Winter says not slowing or turning to the following officials.
"Ma'am while we are extremely happy to being hosting such an illustrious persons as yourselves… but the Administrator is not... Uh, present currently." the man stutters out worried about the reaction of the imposing alabaster haired woman. Who for the first time since arriving on the gas ball known as Bespin, stopped walking. Her head turning slowly with deliberate control, finally taking in the short mousey looking man with a receding hairline and a very poorly kept moustache. He tries to stand taller but only manages to make his ill fitting uniform strain to contain is rather impressive gut. "I see. Do tell where has he snuck away too this time?" Winter turns her full attention to the man, Weiss and the troopers watch on as the man fills with fear.
The man began to sweat as the aura of the woman intimidated him, he imagined Lord Vader was the scary one but this woman seemed to be just as terrifying to him at this moment. "He… uh he said something about a… a buying trip and gambling. He left aboard the Lady Luck a couple of days ago ma'am he left myself and the two others in charge until his return." he points to the two other men dressed similarly to him, they too now worried. Winters only reaction that revealed her true emotions, was the twitch of her right eye that told Weiss how mad she really was.
"Fine. Well then I'll tell you then. We are temporarily taking command of the city to deal with the threat of rebels in the region. I suppose you three won't have any issues with that, correct?" Winters voice is cold and doesn't leave any room for negotiation. The men quickly nod before backing off from the sisters arranging the necessary things for the girls to operate within the city without the guards interfering. A few hours later Winter and Weiss were sitting eating a meal in a nice quiet restaurant in the city as troops settled into their patrols all over the city. Dozens of new checkpoints and guard towers along with AT-ST and stormtroopers roamed the streets establishing a strong Imperial presence that is reinforced by the squadrons of TIE fighters that occasionally scream past overhead. Many of the high rollers had been startled by the sudden arrival of the Empire on the city in the sky above the tibanna giant and while some of the ones there for more shady reasons had quietly excused themselves just to be stopped as they tried to leave by the fleet above.
"Sister don't you think we should take a more aggressive approach and raid suspected rebel bases?" Weiss respected her elder sister's tactical mind but had always been one for the more straightforward approach. "Also are these dresses really necessary?" she looked down at the overly fancy dress wear they had bought less than half an hour before in a shop nearby. She much preferred her uniform, especially around these older men who wouldn't stop openly eyeing the sisters much to her irritation. This revealed much more skin than she was comfortable with, her eyes swept back across the other diners once again wishing at least she could carry her normal blaster rather than this small holdout type she had strapped to her thigh. The gun was nowhere near as strong but it could be concealed on the person even in such a gown, the white strapless dresses look very similar giving the two girls a very nice matching style not that Weiss cared as she preferred something useful and sensible though she had to admit the skirt was something she could appreciate.
"Weiss it's important that we not shake thing up here to badly as that might make the rebels scatter until we leave or even cause more people to join them or assist them to hide from us. As for the dress, I think you wear it wonderfully sister, not to mention we would stick out in our officers uniforms and would practically be begging for the rebels to attack us. I think we should enjoy a little down time we have been cramped up in the fleet for months on end recently and it would be nice to see the city for a bit without worry." Winter cared for and loved her younger sister but Weiss often seemed to struggle with relaxing and letting her hair down, both figuratively and literally. There father had been the cause of that and now Winter had to constantly make these little down times for them to help Weiss decompress.
Weiss seemed to accept her sisters reasoning without any argument instead finishing the salad in front of her. Winter quietly settles the bill as she watches her younger sister enjoy the meal even if Weiss would never admit it she knew that she enjoyed these outings. As they finished their meals they retrieved their coats and exited and began walking towards the shopping area just down the street intent on seeing what the city merchants specialized in, Weiss hoped to find more crystal specimens, as an avid collector her fascination in the small stones she had been collecting though every planet they went too she checked for one specific type, a kyber crystal but she had still yet to find one of the rare type, though a few shadier merchants had tried to pawn much less valuable crystals off as one of the legendary power crystals.
As the two sisters walked along in amicable silence before a heavily modded speeder bike turned aggressively onto the road down from them. A man in armor wielding a small blaster rifle zooming towards the sisters "SCHNEEEEE" he bellows as he nearly rams the girls who manage to throw themselves out of the way of their would be assassin. His chest plate bearing the emblem of them extremist group the White Fang his first few shots missing as he careens towards them, upon missing his charge he sweeps back around on the speeder and lines up to make another run. Both girls now in a little cover of a shop front with their small hold out blasters out, Weiss opens fire but doesn't have much effect as Winter grabs her comlink and calls for stormtrooper support. The bike lurches forward the rider firing his blaster and the light rapid fire blaster on the nose of his speeder, sending a hail of fire on their position as he speeds towards them.
As they duck down to avoid being killed by the rain of blaster fire they realize this killer will get them before a squad can arrive and hear him getting closer rapidly. They both decide to at least make a stand, their eyes meet before both popping up firing their blasters, the rounds do little to no damage to him or his vehicle, the armor more than enough for the low power of such small weapons. Before his vehicle can hit them though a loud crack sounds from down the street, a round slamming into the bike faster than the eye can see causing the vehicle to jerk hard to the left sending it into a death spiral crashing into the wall of the building the rider having been thrown moments before saving his life as his bike explodes into shrapnel. The attacker quickly jumping up and whipping towards the new threat and opening fire. The sisters couldn't see who was fighting him but knew at least it wasn't a stormtrooper, there wouldn't be any lone troopers and none used a rare slug thrower like what had clearly struck the bike. Another round shoots past clearly having just missed their attacker, they decided to help their savior both opening fire even knowing it probably wouldn't kill the Fang assassin but hoping to put him off guard so the shooter could get a clear shot.
"Weiss go left and keep firing, if we can force him into the open the other shooter ight be able to actually take him down or keep him busy long enough for a squad to get here. But do not be a hero." They both kept pouring fire onto his location causing him to finally jump from cover to fire at them, his blaster rises and takes aim at Winter as she moves. His finger pulling just as a slug hits him hard in his side, punching straight through his armor causing the blaster to jump and sending its round high just barely missing Winter practically singeing her hair. He sways before falling forward to his knees, laster falling from his nerveless fingers, Weiss having seen how close her sister came to being shot runs forward as quickly as she can wearing a dress and with all the rubble from the incident having been thrown everywhere by the blaster fire and the crash. "Winter are you okay, god please talk to me" she drops to her knees next to her older sister.
"I'm fine Weiss, its okay, we are okay. Thanks to her" Winter points past the younger woman who follows to look at the third who was striding towards them with an odd looking pistol in her holster. Her dark hair reflecting the light of the sun as she gets close. Her red and black coat and tight black pants and boots giving her an almost roguish look with the gun on her waist one hand resting on it. "Are you both alright?" a voice betraying how young the girl was, she couldn't be more than 20, as she gets closer Weiss also realizes to her annoyance that see is slightly taller than her. The girl girl standing in front of them smiling at the two sisters offering her hand to them with red hair tips and most startlingly at least in Weiss and Winters mind, her striking silver eyes full of happiness and joy
