~The Remnants: Volume II~

~Two Years before Vol II~

On a rooftop deep in the heart of the city of Vacuo, there lies a girl standing on top of the roof, cloaked. She hears the chatter and ambiance of the bustling city; noticing three police cars rushing to a warehouse. The girl then hears, "White-Cat," as she turns; seeing a old Faunas man; coupled with tusks on his jaw and with half of his face burned states to her; "The operation has begun."

The girl turns, and says; "Yes sir." she slides down with the man and runs with him on the roofs and catwalks in the city. As they run; the girl says, "Sir; what's our objective?". The man says, "You and Me, White-Cat will be going into the warehouse to hack the main storage computers before the officers get there."

"And what about the soldiers down protecting us?" White-Cat asks. They reach a vantage point to the warehouse, noticing the soldiers fighting their lives for this objective as he says; "They protect us at any costs.." as they notice four soldiers getting shot; dying from the gunshots. A grim, pale face is expressed to White-Cat as they jump into the storage facility.

As they enter, they see numerous soldiers hold down the doors as they urge the two to get to the a room; filled with computer towers. White-Cat and the man look around, as she eventually finds a insert section for the hack to begin. White-Cat says "Found it, what now?" The old man turns, as he says to her; "Insert the device I gave you a few minutes ago; and then it should take five minutes. Tops."

She grabs a USB, given to her as she plugs it into the tower. The man holds onto a tablet that he pulls out, seeing that the process has started. Soon after, he say's to her "Now, it's time to defend this sector." as he gives her the Tablet. She asks the man "Yes sir." seeing the man run to help assist the soldiers. With him gone, she bides her time; waiting for him to return.

She then hears a sound of a window breaking with multiple soldiers screaming as she sees the old man come back to her almost instantly. The old man says "White-Cat; I need your help!-" before they both notice a huntress entering the room. It was Carmine Jane, a Second-Year huntress of Shade Academy. Carmine says to the two, "I guess the saying goes; trying on this scale will bring you prone to failure."

The old man says to her; "Show me your worth to transition onto as a lietuenant in Mistral." as White Cat asks; "You sure?" where she notices Carmine drawing her weapon; a quad-barreled shotgun as it transforms into a ranger sword. The old man says "NOW." as he grabs the tablet and gives her a dagger/revolver weapon with Calamity running towards White-Cat.

Before White-Cat could move; Calamity lunged forward, hitting the cloak that White Cat was wearing while gashing her from the blade. Calamity then blows open the cloak from the shotgun, deafening White-cat as her face was now fully exposed; revealing it was Margro Hunt at the age of 14.

As it blew, Margro looked straight at Carmine and punched her in the jaw; causing Carmine to move back. During this time, Margro quickly drew her weapon and started shooting blindly at Carmine trying to get Carmine to step back. Carmine quickly knew what she was doing and instead lunged forward; grabbing Margro as they fell down onto the warehouse floor.

Margro and Carmine lie on the ground, as Margro quickly gets back up; transforming the weapon into it's Dagger where she stands above Carmine. Carmine quickly notices as Margro lunges the Dagger with Carmine grabbing the blade; stopping it from hitting her neck. She holds it, as blood starts to come down onto her face.

Carmine then finally has the strength as she fully grabs hold of it, taking it away from Margro as she throws it; piercing the roof. Carmine then punches Margro in the nose, forcing Margro to fall quickly to the ground, as both get up. They both notice their weapons are away from them; as Carmine tries to jump up; Margro grabs her as she falls down to the ground in little pain.

Carmine notices as the two start going into a fist fight with punches to each other from the legs to the jaw. Eventually; Carmine gives out as one final punch in the face knocks her to the ground with her aura completely gone. Margro, with a bare amount of it from fighting jumps to grab the dagger.

Soon, the hack nears completion as the old man; now uncloaked jumps down as Margro stand's in front of the defeated Carmine. The man says; "Nice work Hunt. Now I suppose you know what to do.". Margro looks at him, and then turns to some of the dead soldiers of the White Fang, as he says; "Avenge your brothers and sisters."

Carmine notices the two, and attempts to get up but coughs blood, crying at the same time. The old man, says "Do it."

~Chapter XII: The Ice Slave~

~The Day of The Reunion~

~Vacuo~

Within the heart of a large; bustling home, Margro wakes up to notice Qrow sitting, patiently. She says, sitting up in a bed; "...are you Qrow Branwen?" as she sees him observing the marks on his wrist. He then turns his head up, saying to Margro; "Hello, Mrs. Hunt." as he looks directly at her now. Margro says, "..Why am I here? Am I still in Vacuo?" as Qrow says to Margro "Yes, and as a matter of fact; you are at somewhere special."

He grabs a flask from beside him and starts to open it. Margro says; as he pours it, "What is the place that is special?" with seeing Qrow start to drink. After three second's, he stops and quickly closes the flask; placing it next to him. He says; "Have you ever heard of team CAPT?" with him leaning closer to the bed. Margro says "...I..I barely learned about them."

Qrow stands up. He then says, "Do you know an individual named..Carmine Jane?" as he gives her a picture of the huntress. Margro's eye's widen as she says "...Is she the leader?" seeing Qrow nod. Margro freezes; as she then says "Get me out of here.". Quickly, Qrow said to her "No. I want to know everything of why you are here, and more importantly; why you quickly reacted to that."

Margro knows if she tries to escape again she can get hurt much more badly so she hesitates. Qrow waits, as she says "Two years before I was enlisted to Ironwood's operation; I was apart of the Vacuo-ran militia group of Faunas fighters. You could say that it was White Fang..but they we're my family. They saved me from a life that would have been probably more painful than death."

She stops, as she changes the subject "Anyhow, there was one operation was apart of..it was to hack one of the largest anti-faunuas corporations at the time and to give all the profits to several organizations for the Fauna's. I jumped at the chance..before I found out that it was really a motive to give the White Fang more profit to gather more weapons and ammo for a massive raid on the government."

Qrow's eyes broaden a bit, but only slightly. He then shifts, saying "And what happened in the end?" as Margro says "It wouldn't be a shock that the police got word quick as a young huntress came in to try to stop it..and that person, was Carmine." as Margro holds the sheet, slightly. Margro says "I stopped her, at the cost of breaking her nose. But in the end, my mentor..my mentor was Telch Pont."

Qrow stops her, as he says "Wait, Telch Pont; the CFO of Pont Tech was apart of the White Fang?" as Margro quickly says "He is, and he helped out with the supplies of several jobs and helped me become a huntress in few aspects." She stops, and says to Qrow "But back to what I was trying to say, he ordered me to kill her..and you can guess what happened."

~Two Year's ago~

Carmine notices the two, and attempts to get up but coughs blood, crying at the same time. The old man, says "Do it." as the file nears its finishing. Margro then turns, as the weapon she holds glows white. Soon after, she shoots Telch in the heart, killing him almost instantly as the white light fades away.

Margro then jumps up and takes out the USB, destroying it in the process and goes back to Carmine. Carmine is then picked up by Margro to the floor as she lay's her to a wall next to the room. Margro then grabs Carmine's weapon and breaks it apart; placing it next to her. Margro then says, "I want you to remember something, I kept you alive today because this man thought that he was the man that could bite much more than what he could chew."

she drops her weapon and starts carrying Telch. And before Margro leaves, she says to Carmine "Next time I see you, you owe me some water." as she kicks a emergency exit door, leaving with the body; waving to Carmine.

Carmine looks at the door, as police officers start rushing in; seeing her bleeding and rushes her to a hospital.

~ Present time~

Margro stops, taking a minute to drink a cup of water. She then says "My reasoning to come here is to help Carmine with any chance I can. I never wanted to be someone within the Athlesian army and I certainly didn't want to have someone lose a person they care about."

Qrow and Margro sit, looking as he then says "What is your favorite fairytale?" as he grabs his flask and opens it. And soon after,

he starts to drink what's in the flask.
