Chase had been staring at the book for at least an hour trying to decipher why it was blank, at first he thought it wasn't and checked the pages under the light but he still couldn't see any traces of writing. Hey, we need to get materials from the armory. The sound of the voice in his head snapped his attention away from the book -Why do we need materials? I already stocked up on dust for the mission, what else do we need?- I've finished designing our new weapon but I can't just materialise it -Fine, we'll go now, I need a break from this damn book- Just as he put the book in his pocket someone knocked at the door.

Neo walked in anyway and turned to him "We have to leave, now".

"But the mission isn't for another couple of days"

"But some hunters got in and we need to start the train now"

He got up off the bed and lifted the grimm mask he had prepared for the mission so no one would notice him. -What materials do you need for this weapon?- Bone armour from a deathstalker and some gun parts -We can get the gun parts in Vale but the bone armour will be hard to find-

"Alright, lets go"

The two left and saw that Torchwick had already started the train, they both broke into a sprint to jump onto it before it entered the tunnels. As he was running Chase looked to see the hunters who had found them -Crap, if they see me here then I'll have to fight them- Then you'll get to show your loyalty to these bastards -I'll have to fight with only my suit so they don't notice me-

Once they got on the train they ran to the front to find Torchwick

"You couldn't have dealt with them without using the train?"

"I could've but if they got a message out then everyone would know about it, best get them off guard now"

"Fine… me and Chase will stall them so they can't get up here"

They heard one of the grunts shouting from outside "They're on the train!"

Chase and Neo quickly ran out the door, Neo stopped Chase before he moved on to the next cart "You might want to be ready for whenever the train crashes into the city" Chase looked at her confused and she just pointed out the window, when he looked out he saw the carts at the back exploding and grimm following the train

"That would've been nice to know earlier"

"You've got to get going, they'll be here soon"

Chase placed the mask over his face and moved on to the next cart as he saw Yang, Weiss and Blake drop down from the roof. -They won't risk a three on one, they have time against them- But are you able to fight any of them without using your tail -I can always use the dust in other ways- He walked towards the trio slowly and he saw Yang nod to the others as they ran ahead. He created an illusion of himself and quickly jumped to the ceiling grabbing on to the bars as Yang shot at the illusion breaking it. She looked around to find him as Chase slipped out one of his explosive tipped knives and threw it at her feet causing her to stagger. He quickly jumped down as she got up he span around using his foot to parry her gauntlets, following up with a punch. Yang's hair started glowing and her pupils went red -Shit I forgot about the blades- Chase went on the defensive as Yang threw out a barrage of punches, he grabbed one of her arms and focused some dust into the aura around his head and headbutted her causing her to fall to the ground.

He looked down and felt something….. psychotic take over -Such an easy kill, go on, I know you want to- He felt a disturbing shiver as his tail released and aimed at Yang. Then he saw something in the corner of his mind and immediately turned to see a dark haired figure wearing red armour appeared. He immediately turned his tail to block her attacks. She sheathed her katana and the dust chamber swirled as she released it again. Chase went to attack but her sword moved so fast that he had to block, the blade was able to slice off a part of his tail. He created an illusion to dodge her attacks while he escaped to the cart where Neo was. She was fighting with Weiss in what seemed like a stalemate, until Neo used her semblance and caught Weiss off guard, putting her on the defensive.

"We know it was you who captured him, where is he?"

Neo simply replied with a grin as she jabbed at Weiss opening the umbrella to knock her over the boxes behind her. He then looked at Neo and saw a maniacal grin, the same one he had when he defeated Yang. Chase ran over and used his tail to parry Neo before she could stab Weiss. He picked up Weiss and threw her into the next cart where he hoped Blake was having some luck with her fight.

He turned to Neo to see if she was alright, she just looked dazed.

"What happened?"

"I'll explain later the train is about to crash"

After he said that her face turned into a panic as Chase pulled out some dust trying to think about how to lessen the impact when Neo interrupted "We need to be able to fight as soon as the train crashes" He quickly pulled out some ice crystals and covered themselves making sure the ice could slide.

After the train crashed Chase quickly got out of the train and used his semblance so that no one could see him as he ran into the alley. He was heading to his hiding spot when he saw a group of civilians being chased by a Deathstalker. -God dammit, we've got to help them- Good, remember to rip off some of his armour. Without another seconds thought he ran to the deathstalker jumping just as it swung its claw at Chase. He slipped out a force crystal and launched himself at the tail to chop it off. Looking down he extended his tail to pierce the armour and rip off a chunk causing the Deathstalker to scream in pain. He landed and lifted the chunk as he finished off the deathstalker by stabbing the unarmoured area, smiling at his work. He was snapped back to reality when he noticed Pyrrha standing in front of the Deathstalker. -SHIT she probably recognised me-

"Chase, we thought you were captured" She might've noticed you

-Either explain it to her and hope she says nothing or run and she tells everyone- "I was, after a long fight, thanks for the help by the way, it was either work with them for now as me or get mindplugged and have to work with them forever"

"But now you're here you can come back to Beacon"

"Not exactly, here on a mission and if I escape they'll just come back and re-capture me, I could use your help though"

She stared at him then crossed her arms "I'm not helping them"

"It's more to help me escape, while I haven't given up on it I need to make sure they can't get me again"

She uncrossed her arms and looked more willing to help "What do you need?"

"Gun parts, access to the workshop and for you to act as if you can't see me if I try to contact you, also no one else can know"

She nodded "I can get you access to the workshop in a few days, check at around noon, other than that is there anything else?"

Chase thought for a moment, this would be the last time for a while he would be able to talk to someone inside Beacon "How do you fight a mirror?"

She looked at him confused "What's that supposed to mean?"

"It's a serious question, the me before I lost my memories write it for me to find out, but I can't figure it out"

"Wouldn't you just shatter it?"

Oh for dusts sake you never thought that he put an illusion on the book so that it looked blank -No, how did I not think of that- "I've got to go, thanks for the help" He started running towards his hiding place and pulled out his book. -To dispel one of my illusions something needs to happen that shouldn't happen within the illusion, got any ideas on how a blank page would react differently to one with writing?- There would be indents on the page from the writing. Chase began to feel the pages and sure enough the writing came back to the book. -Looks like my escape is coming sooner than I thought-
