"Umbrella, you don't have much time. White Fang operatives are closing in fast." a female voice said through an earpiece. The young man in question grit his teeth while standing at the console.

"Just a few more seconds… and there we go!" the young man said, grabbing his scroll off of the data transfer pad to his right. Just as he did so, a loud siren rang throughout the base. He groaned. "Oh, you have got to be kidding me!" he yelled.

There was the sound of a gun cocking behind him. "Hands up in the air!" The young man obliged, turning around slowly. "Down on the floor! Don't try anything funny." The young man simply grinned, promptly before kicking the guard in the stomach.

"OPEN FIRE!" A nearby guard yelled. The young man promptly grabbed the umbrella mounted on his back and opened it like a shield in front of him. What the guards saw was the umbrella being used as a shield. What the young man saw, on the other hand, were reticles with the word 'LOCK' superimposed over each of the guards. With another grin, he squeezed the trigger on the handle.

Holes were blown in the sides of the building by the bodies of the guards. One of them groaned, before being silenced by a falling brick. "Oops." The young man muttered, "did I overdo it?" He didn't have much time to think about this before he heard the distinctive sching of a sword being drawn. The young man promptly brought his weapon around to bear.

A loud clang rang throughout the alley, sparks flying to the caconophy of metal clashing with metal. Both stood steadfast, neither backing down. The young man's opponent kicked his opponent in the stomach, before driving his sword through the young man's arm. The young man hissed, before kicking back. "Hah! There's nothing you can do now!" The young man simply glared at him, before tossing the umbrella to his other hand.

"I'm ambidextrous." the young man said, promptly before aiming the umbrella point-first at his opponent. "The name's Resh Obsidian. Nighty-night." The last thing that the sword-wielding faunus saw was a flash of bright blue.
