Authors Note: Raine's pistol holsters are the ones Bruce Willis had in the movie Last Man Standing. Everyone else has Scrolls while Raine just has a regular smartphone. Sorry if I'm kinda rushing this chapter I wanted to finish this before school. I used ideas from Gremlins, Alien, and one other movie I can't remember the name of.

Ch.4 Rescue Mission in the Village of the Damned

Raine was peacefully sleeping until a certain blonde brawler flipped his cot over throwing him to the ground. Coughing slightly, he recovered himself from the sudden wake up call his friend just gave him.

"Yang, what was that for?" Raine asked, slightly annoyed that there was a big grin spreading across her face.

"Well Raine, apparently Team CFVY is m.i.a. So, now Ozpin wants Team RWBY, Team JNPR, and you to go in and see what happened to them." Yang said doing her best Ozpin impression.

"Yang, shouldn't you be a little less happy since Team CFVY could be dead?" Raine asked

"No, Team CFVY can handle themselves pretty well in a fight. I highly doubt they are dead. Now come on and grab your weapons so we can head out, " Yang said before heading out of the dorms and off towards the airship that would be taking them on their mission. Raine was happy that he had slept in his normal attire, or he would have had to take time getting dressed. Raine decided to just take his katana and dual pistols and leave his snyther rifle and knives at the dorms, seeing as he wouldn't be needing them since he had people to back him up for once. I guess you could say he was feeling overly confident about going into no mans land for once.

As he approached the airship, he could see his friends getting in. Raine picked up the pace so he wouldn't be chewed out for being late. As he arrived on board, Raine saw that Blake was sitting at the back of the ship reading a book. Ruby and Weiss were sitting next to each other holding hands. Jaune and Pyrrha sat next to one another also. Raine noticed that Pyrrha was blushing. Nora had fallen asleep using Ren as a pillow. The only open seat was next to Yang. Raine walked up and sat down next to her. Lucky enough for him, he always fell asleep with his phone and ear buds in his jean pockets. He popped those puppies in, turned on some music, kicked back, and quickly fell asleep.

Next thing Raine, knew he was inhaling blonde hair through his mouth. Coughing somewhat, he opened his eyes to see that Yang had fallen asleep leaning on him. Raine stared at her for a minute, thinking about how peaceful and beautiful she looked. Realizing what he was just thinking, he blushed somewhat. Raine decided to let her be and go back to sleep himself. But the pilot announced on the radio, "We are fifteen minutes away from drop off point. Everyone up and adam so you can get geared up."

With tha,t everyone started waking up one by one. Raine shook Yang awake, getting another face full of hair as she stirred.

"*Yawn* Hey, Raine, so are we there yet?," Yang asked.

"Yes, we are about fifteen minutes away, so we need to gear up, ok," Raine said before getting up to stretch his legs. Yang was close behind.

Everyone was now wide awake as they landed in the city-like village located in the middle of a very spooky forest. This was where Team CFVY had been sent to kill some unidentified creatures in the area, which were assumed to be Grimm. As everyone was getting off the ship, they had made sure they had everything they needed. After everything was accounted for, they headed off into the giant village to look for the members of Team CFVY.

"OK everyone, seeing as this village is huge, I think we should split up," said Jaune, who looked very confident in his decision. "Since there are an odd number of us, there will be one team of three people and three teams of two people," he continued.

"No, I'll be fine on my own. We will need as many people covering the village as possible, so I'll go off on my own. The rest of you form teams of two, like Jaune said. Got it?" Raine said, turning around and walking down one of the many roads that lead through the village.

"Ok then, it's settled. I'll go with Pyrrha. Ruby with Weiss, Nora with Ren,

and Blake with Yang. Ok now that we have our teams lets split up," Jaune announced and

with that each pair headed off down different roads that led into the village.

With Raine

Raine was aimlessly walking around, going down random roads that he hoped would take him somewhere that had clues to where team CFVY had ended up. Although that was his main objective, his mind couldn't help but drift to thoughts about a blonde brawler who had changed the way he felt about himself in the span of two days. But his thoughts were interrupted by a loud chopping sound. Raine walked over to where the sound was coming from and looked around the corner of a hut to see a beowolf, but what he saw wasn't an alive beowolf. There was a human like thing with grayish skin eating the poor Grimm. Raine let out a small gasp at the sight of the thing pulling out the beowolf's stomach, blood and fluids spraying everywhere as the thing chopped down, the organ fluid slowly oozing down it's chin. Then it heard Raine's phone go off with a message from Ruby asking him how he was doing. Raine didn't have time to turn off his phone as the humanoid creature let out a terrible screeching noise, and, to Raine's misfortune, more creatures like the one he was staring at came crawling out of buildings, alleyways, and the sewer system. Raine didn't notice the one behind him before it was to late, and the thing had jumped on his back and sunk its teeth into his shoulder. Letting out a startled yelp, Raine quickly threw the creature off of him and into the mass horde of creatures gathering in front of him.

Raine drew his pistols and started to shoot at them, hitting most of the things in vital areas such as their heads and hearts, watching their bodies hit the ground with a delightful thud. Raine thought he was in the clear until they started getting back up one by one, greenish blood flowing from the holes Raine had put in them. When they brushed off his bullets like nothing hit them, Raine decided that a tactical retreat was in order. He took off running with multiple creatures after him.

With Yang and Blake

Yang and Blake were walking idly about the road they had taken, looking at all the abandon huts and houses littering the street.

"What happened to everyone?" Yang asked

"They probably all evacuated when the Grimm were sighted." Blake pointed out

They got quite as they walked, until they heard gunshots coming from around the corner of a house about seventeen feet away from them . Before they could move any further, Raine came running around the corner of the road with his right hoodie sleeve missing, blood slowly dripping from his arm, his guns out. He was shooting something behind him, which the girls couldn't see since the house was blocking their vision. Raine turned and saw the girls. He shouted "Run!" as he started running towards them. Then a horde of creepy looking humanoid like creatures came running out from behind the house.

Raine and the girls took off running down the road. They spotted a church like building at the center of where a bunch of the roads met. Running in and closing the doors shut behind them, Yang and Blake held the door shut while Raine grabbed benches and other heavy objects he could find to barricade the door. After it was barricaded up, Blake was finally able to catch her breathe and ask, "Raine what were those things?"

"Have no clue but when I found them one was eating a beowolf's entrails" Raine replied.

The church was dimly lit because most of the windows were boarded up. Deciding they needed more light, Raine started to grab one of the many candlesticks on the altar, then noticed there was fresh blood on the altar, like something was sacrificed. He brushed that thought off and tried moving the candlestick holder. It wouldn't budge. He pulled harder. Then he heard a click as the candlestick moved slightly. At the same moment he heard the screams of the two teenage girls as they fell down a hidden staircase that he had just opened.

Raine slowly approached the steps with a couple lit candles he now had, before walking down it to find his companions, but they were nowhere to be found. Worry started eating at him as he took off faster down the staircase hoping to find his friends without noticing that a hidden door in the middle of the stairs was being closed by a grayish skinned creature that had a fist full of blonde hair in one hand and a bow in the other. If only Raine knew he was descending down the steps into the hellish world that was hidden under this village.

With Ruby and Weiss

Ruby and Weiss were investigating a mansion like building they had found on the road they had taken.

"So, uh, Ruby after we get back to...uh Vale, you want to tell everyone we are a couple, you know make it official?" Weiss asked, blushing a lot. Ruby and Weiss had been dating in secret for a couple months now, and Weiss thought it was time that they made it official.

"Oh, yes, Weiss" Ruby squealed happily before pulling Weiss into a passionate kiss, but Ruby pulled Weiss a bit too fast causing her to fall on top of Ruby and making them both fall into a bookcase, knocking books over. Unfortunately this also included hitting a secret lever disguised as a book, opening a trapdoor in the floor, which both Ruby and Weiss fell into.

With Pyrrha and Jaune

Pyrrha and Jaune walked side by side next to one another. The road that they were walking had turned from dirt to cobble stone as it entered farther into the village. They were talking about Jaune's training and decided to take a break by a tree, but the tree was booby trapped and two nets went off, capturing both Jaune and Pyrrha.

"Jaune, are you ok?" Pyrrha asked worriedly.

"Yeah I'm fine. How did these nets get here?" Jaune asked.

Before Pyrrha could give a reply, a man with a shotgun came running up, but he looked at the two caught teenagers in confusion. "Who are you people?" he asked.

"I'm Jaune and this is Pyrrha. We are hunters sent here to help your village." Jaune said and then asked "Who are you, sir?"

"My name's John and I'm the last survivor of this village," he said.

"What do you mean " the last survivor"? What happened to everyone else?" Pyrrha asked.

"We found hidden tunnels under the village and we investigated. We found a tomb of sorts and, being curious, we opened it to find inscriptions and hieroglyphs on the walls. We had our archaeologist translate them. The inscriptions read 'Here lay the Grimmblins, an ancient Creature of Gimm that are tiny monsters that burrow into a host, take over their body's, and transform them into a humanoid flesh eating monster. Weird thing is they attack both humans and Grimm even though they are Grimms themselves. We found dormant Grimmblin eggs and thought we could study them, but instead we awoke them and in six hours half the villagers were turned. The people who were infected captured the non infected and took them to a nest under the village so the Grimmlins could easily burrow into their new hosts 'cause Grimmlins are fragile little creatures which you could easily kill by stepping on them. That's why they need hosts, so they can capture other hosts and take them to a nest so new hatch-lings can infect them." While John was finishing his story glory behold a brave Grimmblin climbed up his back, hopped on to his neck, bit a hole in it before using said hole to burrow in the man's body.

Jaune and Pyrrha watched in horror as John's body started twisting and turning, making vicious cracking noises as his body was morphed to fit the needs of the Grimm that just entered his body. After John was fully transformed he looked up at the two hunters with dead eyes before hopping up into the tree with inhuman capabilities, gripping the nets and removing them from the tree. He jumped down with the nets containing the two teens and started dragging them off towards a manhole. (For Grimmlins they look like Gremlins when they are in their cute state and they are tiny but are Creatures of Grimm and are like face huggers from Alien but burrow into people and take them over instead of planting an embryo in them.)

With Nora and Ren

Nora and Ren were investigating a creepy looking old house near the edge of the forest. Nora was talking up a storm about pancakes and random stuff until Ren heard something and shushed her. They got quiet until a floorboard from the second floor broke and fell next to Nora, who in turn jumped onto Ren. "Nora get…" was all Ren could get out before they're combined weight broke the floorboards and they tumbled into a hole underneath the floor. When they reached the bottom of the hole, which opened up into the underground catacombs beneath the village, Ren hit his head on a rock and Nora face planted into the floor. Before they could recover, two Grimmlin infected people came up and dragged them off deeper into the catacombs.

With Raine

Raine had finally reached the bottom of the steps and found himself in a catacomb type cave. He decided to just keep walking straight. For about an hour he kept walking until he reached something that looked like a tomb. The door to the tomb was wide open. Raine didn't really care. He just wanted to find Blake and Yang, so he continued walking through the doors and into the tomb. While he was walking Raine looked at all the inscriptions, which he couldn't read and the hieroglyphs which showed pictures of evil little things climbing inside people and then those people transforming into what looked like the things he shot outside.

"So is that what happened cause what I gather from theses pictures are that these little creatures get inside people to use them as hosts and then transforming their hosts into those freaky creatures outside and if that's true, I have to find Yang and the others before one of them gets turned!" Raine thought urgently.

Raine took off running until he reached what looked like a torture room. There was dried blood all over the walls and the stench in the air was killing him. The torture room he was in had six cells, three of which had bars and the others were completely closed off. Then there was a door at the end of the room. After looking at the cells he could easily see into, he decided to open up concealed cell number one to find...a pile of dead bodies. The stench in the air nearly made him throw up. Also, the fact that they were decomposing pieces of skin slowly peeling off the organs and fluids leaking out of them and their dead eyes white and lifeless and falling out of their heads. What caught his eyes were the holes that looked like something had burrowed into them.

In the end, Raine decided to just go through the door at the end of the room instead of opening doors two and three. When he opened the door he saw eggs scattered across the floor and there were also people shackled against the wall. When he got closer to the poor people that were being held in this underground nightmare he recognized them as the members of team RWBY, JNPR, and CFVY. Raine heard hatching noises behind him "Oh hell no, I've seen the Alien series" Raine thought as he used the dust fire crystal fused with his body to set fire to the eggs. Quickly as he could, he unshackled his friends. One Grimmlin had made it out of the fire and was running toward them at full speed, but it didn't see Raine's foot and was neatly crushed. Raine heard a crunching noise. As he turned the Grimmlin into paste with his heel, he even saw an eye pop out of its head and go flying. With a sigh Raine decided to carry two of his friends at a time out of the dungeon and back to the church.

After carrying his friends out

"So these Grimm take control of the host and turn them into flesh eating monsters," Ren said thoughtfully as he pondered what Pyrrha had told them what John had said to Jaune and her.

Meanwhile over in the corner of the church Raine was calling the airship. "Hello" the captain answered.

"Hello, captain? We have team CFVY. They are unconscious. We are pinned down by an unknown enemy. Can you pinpoint our location and come pick us up? And bring back up," Raine asked.

"Can do. I will be there in twenty. Hold tight," the captain replied.

Raine hung up and walked back over to the group who were talking about what had happened to them while in the village, but were interrupted by a screech coming from outside and another from the staircase. Raine rushed over to the candlestick lever and pulled hard on it, closing the door, before running over to one of the windows and peeking through it to see fifty or more Grimm humans outside. Raine turned around to his friends.

"Ok all of you and stay here and watch over team CFVY. I'll go see if these things like getting sliced into strips of meat." Raine said with a smile playing on his lips and before anyone can argue with him he was out the door.

Katana in hand, Raine ran up to the first of the Grimmlin humans, cutting it in half with one swing. Intestine fluid and blood sprayed all over him as the organs slipped out of the sliced halves and fell to the ground with a loud plop. As five more came to attack him, Raine lifted up his arm and let a burst of black flames come out of his hand, igniting the creatures on fire. He sliced one's head off, then kicked the head into another creature, knocking it off balance before cutting it's arms off and then its legs before stomping on its head, brain matter and pieces of skull scattering across the ground. Raine jumped to the top of the church roof and started flinging fireballs into the horde of monsters, burning them to black husks of molten skin. He continued lighting the creatures on fire enjoying the smell of burnt flesh in the air more than he should until he exhausted his dust energy. At that moment, the roof caved in and Raine fell onto the floor of the church in the middle of his friends who had been listening to the fight going on outside. Luckily enough Raine had held off the Grimmlins long enough for the airship to arrive. They lowered a ladder through the hole in the roof and a couple armed men came down to help get team CFVY onto the ship.

The soldiers took team CFVY up the ladder, followed by team RWBY, then JNPR , and finally Raine.

"Captain, get us out of here. We have five minutes before they nuke this place and euthanize this whole village of those things!" one of the soldiers shouted as the pilot of the airship took them up.

"Alright, we are off! Everyone strap in!" the captain shouted over the radio.

Everyone sat in their seats and strapped in while the pilot/captain flew the airship in the direction of Beacon as fast as he could. Raine let out a sigh of contentment and decided to pop in his ear buds and fall asleep listening to music again. The last thing he saw before drifting off into sleep was the bright flash of the nuke as the hell hole he had been in was incinerated to the ground.

Ok I know I kind of pushed the Ruby x Weiss randomly in there but I remind you even though I said that the main couples were Ruby x Weiss, Sun x Blake, and Raine x Yang

the main coupling is Raine x Yang while the other two pairings are ones you will see more than the other couples such as Pyrrha x Jaune. I couldn't really think how to introduce the WhiteRose in the fanfiction so I decided to have it where Ruby and Weiss have been dating in secret for a while now and haven't told anyone.
