I'm sorry for the lack of Fanfiction that has been coming from my mind.
To be honest, I have been side tracked by a few of my other brain creations, a videogame or two and a total lack of inspiration concernig writing. Lately, my time has been spent with finding my parent's cat, working at an animal shelter as a volunteer, and my work at an petting zoo.
I hope to find the inspiration to write agains soon, so we can find out how Harry Ozpin and his team help Team RWBY and JNPR to become the best that they can be, and how they move from where they are now, to chapter 30 of Harry Ozpin.
As gamelover41592 asked me in a review, why Cinder has the semblance she got in this fiction (Ash manipulation) I responded with the following:
We all know that Cinder has half of the fall maidens powers, and she has been using them throughout the series.
What we didn't see was Cinder's own semblance, except for the battle with Amber.
what we see is that Amber tosses a ball of energy, maybe fire, at Cinder.
Cinder jumps over the ball, the ball explodes and Cinder used the ash that is left from the explosion to form shards of 'glass' that she throws towards Amber.
Hopefully, I've made some sense of it.
now, enjoy Chapter 11 of Harry Ozpin, Vale's Finest.
'Watching teachers arguing about something had to be the greatest sport in the history of mankind.' Ray thought as he watched from a side table where he was drinking a cup of coffee. 'Well, that or the new game of Grifball.'
Grifball, a game where you needed to deliver a single bomb to a enemies bomb spot, before it would 'blow-up'. The team that got the most points was declared the winner. There were a few rules of the game that needed to be followed. Semblance was only allowed for a short period of time, and the bomb carrier wasn't allowed to use it. Long range weapons were also forbidden, so you had to fight in close quarters. So far, Team RAVN had done pretty well, ranking third on the total rankings of the first and second years. They only had to allow Team CFVY and RWBY in front of them, with JNPR closing in on a secure fourth spot. The other teams, like CRDL was hanging down on one of the lowest spots.
It was a deviation of CTF, or Capture The Flag, where instead you needed to capture a enemies flag and return it to your own base, while protecting your own flag from being stolen. Now you had to protect your bomb spot, while trying to score on you opponents bomb spot.
The elevator pinged, bringing Ray back from his thoughts. As the elevator doors opened, Ruby Rose stepped out of it, looking the same as she always did on a free day.
"Sorry I'm late. Someone accidentally pushed all the buttons on the way up." Said Ruby before she looked around. "It wasn't me."
Ray snorted at Ruby's behavior. That drew the attention of Ruby to him, and the place of cookies that was standing next to him. Within seconds, Ruby had used her semblance to run towards the table where the cookies were standing, picked up the entire place and ran back to where she stood now, eating the cookies.
"Dust Damn it." Ray mumbled softly as he looked at the red and black wearing team leader of Team RWBY.
Ray blocked out whatever was said as he had been there with the initial debriefing in the communications room of the CCT. However, some part were new to him, like a hideout in the southeast.
Frowning, Ray remembered that night, when he and Nova had ridden on one of the bikes to aid Yang and her team fighting a new Atlesian Paladin-290 prototype battle suit. After they were all okay, Team RWBY had, under pressure of Ray and Nova, told them that they had overheard some White Fang members talking about a hideout. Pushing a bit further, Ray and Nova learned that a meeting had been held in an old abandon warehouse. Getting the location wasn't that difficult and Ray promised that whatever they would find at the warehouse, they would share with Team RWBY.
The only thing that they had been able to find were some partial fingerprints, and one whole one. Analyzing it with the Vale Police Department, and using it's ability to order the police around under some old law that gave Huntsmen and Huntresses in training the right to order them around, Ray found the fingerprint to belong to one of the more notorious White Fang members. It was a lieutenant, who, according to the database, wielded a chainsaw as weapon.
One of the partial prints connected to a young looking female, with hair that was colored pink, brown and some white. Her eyes were heterochromia, and she smiled gently from the screen. Ray knew in an instance that who this was. Neopolitan, or Neo for short. She was a resend addiction to the forces of Cinder Fall.
Before thanking the officers for their cooperation, Ray asked them to search for a few other finger prints that Nova and Angel had lifted from a bookshop where the owner was found 'dead' in a puddle of his own blood. Having sent the information to Team RWBY, Ray had made his way to the Huntsmen agency. It was a three story building in the middle of downtown Vale, and coordinated the active huntsmen in their work, patrols and missions. Delivering the information that the dangerously lieutenant from the meeting had been seen in Vale, Ray asked something in return. He didn't need money, but he needed a pass to travel around Vale armed for him and his team during the Vytal Festival. After explaining that he and his team were excluded from the tournament, the Huntsmen at the agency called Professor Ozpin, who confirmed the situation, citing that 'Team RAVN was not permitted to participate in the tournament and would be detached to the security teams of the tournament.'
Having gotten the permission slips of the Huntsmen, Ray stepped into the newly opened dust shop 'From Dust to Dawn' and bought six canisters of various types of Dust, paying 250 Lién to the store owner, who waved him goodbye, before Ray rode back to Beacon Academy. Parking the bike next to the Jeep that they had brought from Old Abby, Ray started to work with his team to install the broken part of the Atlesian Paladin-290 Battle suit to the Jeep. Ray had hoped to create an assault vehicle to use against the Grimm, or White Fang.
But now, Ray watched as Ruby was dismissed by Ozpin, who told that she should keep things 'discreet' for the time being.
Ray looked at Ozpin as the elevator doors closed and the elevator moved down. "Are you sure that she will be 'discreet'?" Ray asked as he used his hands to form quote marks around the word discreet. "After all, we know who she's rooming with. Yang is one of the biggest gossiping girl of Beacon, beside Nora, who can't even keep a secret to safe her life."
Ozpin nodded. "I know. I am actually counting on it." He said as he sat back in his chair.
Shaking his head to the antics of his father, Ray watched as both Ironwood and Glynda started to discuss the new findings of the meeting with Ruby.
"Well there we have it." Ironwood said as he looked outside the window. "We sent as many troops as we can to the southeast,. Find out exactly what's going on and eradicate any force that stand in our way."
Goodwitch shook her head. "Why must your answer to everything be a display of military bravado? You treat every situation like it's a contest of measuring dicks."
"Glynda, mind your tongue." Ozpin said as he turned his chair around to face his deputy and his colleague.
"Well, he does tend to grab to the weapons quite fast." Ray said as he made his way to left side of Professor Ozpin's chair.
"They're right." Ozpin said as he looked at Ironwood, supporting both Ray's and Glynda's statements.
"As much as I to would love to end this situation once and for all, we must remember that this might go beyond Beacon, Beyond Vale."
"It will be." Ray said as he used his scroll to sent a small bit of information to Ironwood's scroll. "That is a real possibility." Ray said as he pointed to Ironwood's scroll, now in the hands of the General. The General looked at it with open eyes and a small amount of fear flashed through it, before they resolved back into the same eyes that the general always had.
"So, you know more than you let on. Why tell us these small bits of information, and not the whole picture?" Asked Ironwood as he kept the scroll hidden from both Ozpin and Glynda. Having found out that Ray Star had some very sensitive documents on his scroll, some that he had transferred to Ironwood's scroll, Ironwood was determined to find out how muct Ray knew.
"Let's just say that I'm not completely sure about the information that I have." Said Ray as he looked at Ironwood. "Regardless, we have students to sent on missions, and I need to be in town soon. I need to look if the mask has any samples of DNA on it. Vixen and Angel are working on the virus in the CCT and Nova is working on the car. We're going to see if we can make a rapid repeating weapon of one of those Paladin guns, that Team RWBY cut off a stolen Paladin-290 battle suit." Said Ray as he moved from Ozpin's desk to the elevator.
"By the way," Ray said as he pushed the button to summon the elevator. "Why didn't you secure the Paladins with special codes, that prevented them from being stolen?" Asked Ray as he stepped into the elevator.
Ironwood looked at the closed doors of the elevator, and somehow knew that both Ozpin and Goodwitch were looking at him. "Ray is right." Said Ozpin as he looked at James.
"You always prefer to sent in the soldiers and the flag-bearer. What we need right now are scouts, and I think I can think of some students who would love to play the scout part." Ozpin said with a slim smile.
Ironwood nodded before he stepped in the summoned elevator. Taking a deep breath, James looked at his scroll, that displayed the schematics for the first aura wielding android, P,E.N.N.Y, or as she was called, Penny Polendina How Ray had known about it, James didn't know and he was actually a bit afraid of the boy, who had such a mysterious aura around him.
Ray listened as Professor Goodwitch message sounded through the speakers, telling every first year student of the four schools co meet in the auditorium.
Looking at Vixen and Angel, Ray nodded and made his way to the auditorium, meeting Nova underway. Smiling, Ray and Nova filled in with the other students, standing next to Teams RWBY and JNPR, just as Professor Ozpin started to speak. Taking out his scroll, Ray pressed 'record' as Ozpin started to talk about the war. Knowing that Angel and Vixen wanted to hear the speech, but were unable to meet with the others in the auditorium. So Ray recorded the small speech of Professor Ozpin, who spoke of the causes of the last war, the resistance that names their children after a color, and how that trend held on to this day. He spoke about the missions that they would have to take, under the leadership of a professional huntsmen or huntress.
"Remember to be safe, remember your training, and remember to do your very best." Ozpin said as he ended his little speech and moved of the stage he had been standing on. Pressing the stop button on his scroll, Ray met up with the headmaster.
"Mr. Star. As headmaster, I am giving you and your team the assignment to find out more about the break-in at the CCT. Inform your team of this and make sure to bring me results." Said Ozpin as he nodded towards Ray. Ray and Nova nodded and moved away from the auditorium, while Professor Ozpin started to talk with Team RWBY.
Smiling, Ray went to his dorm to collect the mask that he had found during the escape of the intruder of the CCT. He needed it to bring it to the Vale Police Department, where he hoped he could find some DNA on the mask. As Ray returned from his short trip to his dorm to collect the mask, as well as a key for the bike, he spotted several familiar faces coming towards him. It was himself, when he was only eleven years old. 'Boy did I look cute' Did Ray though as he passed his past self with Child's Play strapped to his back, Hermione Granger with her wings open, showing them to everyone, Nymphadora (Dora) Tonks with her 'Sweetheart' Hammer-fell and Ginny Goodwitch with Hell's date and her shield on her arm.
Ray moved around the corner and making sure that nobody saw him, cast an invisibility charm over him. Moving back to Harry and his friends, Ray slipped inside the dorm and after watching them move one by one into the bathroom to change, and falling asleep, Ray used his wand to give them a longer night sleep than that they needed. They would sleep for about twenty hours. Using his magic, Ray gave Harry the knowledge how to operate a Paladin-290 Battle suit.
Smiling at his younger self, Ray exited the room where Team GOTH was sleeping. Making his way to the garage, Ray jumped on the bike and made his way to the police station, where he gave the officers the mask. The forensic inspectors started to investigate the mask, while Ray used his scroll to get an update of Vixen how the purging was going. Vixen reported that sixty percent of the virus had been purged by their own written virus, the 'Royals'.
Ray smiled slightly before he told them to update Ozpin as soon as the CCT was deemed clear of infection.
The Inspectors told Ray that there were some parts of DNA on the mask, but they needed more time to create a full DNA profile. Ray nodded and made his way to the breach-point in Vale, where he knew that the next day a massive battle would rage, between Teams RWBY, JNPR, CFVY, several teachers and the Grimm. 'Oh. Let's not forget the Atlesian knights.' thought Harry as he remembered the drop of seventy knights from the Atlesian drop-ships.
"Shit. The knights." Mumbled Ray, as he ran back to the police station, warned the inspectors to call him if they had a lead and jumped on the bike, ready to return to Beacon. Just as he was about to turn the bike around the corner, he spotted someone. Someone he had seen only once in his life. It was when he was at Hogwarts, in his forth year, defending Hogwarts and it's students from the Reaper, a massive dragon like Grimm. It seemed she had spotted him. Her white mask with red markings, almost like a Nevermore Grimm vanished behind a corner. Ray pulled the key from the bike, jumped over it and started to run towards the small alley where he had seen Raven Branwen walking into. Looking in the alley, Ray could seen nothing, nothing except a empty trashcan.
"Fuck." Ray cursed as he turned back to walk to his bike.
Placing the key back in the bike, and starting it up, Ray drove to Beacon Academy, never noticing the woman looking at him from the rooftop of the police station. Shaking her head, The masked woman jumped back on the floor, letting her aura absorb the force of her landing.
"You're special, Harry Ozpin. Your power will only grow, the more missions you take. Until we meet again."
With that, the woman with the mask pulled her sword, one that was connected to a long sheath with several colored Dust blades stored in them. She slashed her blade and it created a red and black portal. Placing the blade back in her sheath, the masked woman stepped through it, before it closed behind her.
