Chase opened his eyes and winced at the light that shone from the window, when he turned to get out of the bed he felt a slight tug. He looked around to see Ruby laying on the bed sleeping peacefully, not wanting to wake her quite yet he looked around to see Pyrrha leaning against the wall beside the window, sleeping as well. He just sat a moment to take in how peaceful it was in contrast to what was happening outside -What's happening outside, shit what if grimm got in- His fears were confirmed by loud footsteps from outside the room.

Silently Chase shook Ruby to wake her up, she opened her eyes slowly, groaning. -Why does she have to be so adorable-

"Five more minutes" she said in a tired voice

Chase shook her again this time a littler harder and when her eyes jolted open she looked around in panic. Chase moved a finger to his lip and then motioned to his ear and she listened to the footsteps coming from outside. Chase used his semblance to get beside Pyrrha and wake her up as well, only when she woke they heard voices.

"I could've sworn I saw them come into this building"

Chase was able to recognise the voice as one of the lead scientists who experimented on him. He was so filled with anger that he didn't even notice that he activated his gauntlets but was reminded when Pyrrha put her hand on his shoulder and shook her head at him. Chase decided to put an illusion on the door before they tried to get into the bedroom. The three of them stayed still making sure they didn't make any noise. After a couple moments they heard the door of the house close and saw them leaving the building via the window.

"Who were those guys?"

"I'm not sure about the armed ones but the guy who spoke was on of the lead scientists in the research facility"

"The same research facility that…" Ruby stopped thinking carefully about what she said next

"The very same" Chase sat back down on one of the beds

"You ok" Ruby said walking towards him

"Fine, but they're still here, stopping them at Beacon wasn't enough, they have something else planned"

"What else could they have up their sleeve? You're starting to sound a bit paranoid" Pyrrha said looking concerned

"I think after they let me escape and planned up to the point of murdering Neo I have earned the right to be paranoid about them not having another trick up their sleeve"

"Whatever they're planning we need to get back to Beacon and warn the others. You can't take them on alone" Ruby said sitting beside him

"Who's to say they'll believe me, right now they're just glad it's over and want to keep that peace"

Chase felt a sharp sting on his cheek the moment he finished speaking. As he lightly rubbed his cheek he looked back at Ruby who was looking angrily at him.

"Do you believe that after all this time people won't believe you, after you helped them deal with Ironwood. Ozpin put his job and possibly life on the line by trusting you after you went on a rampage and you want to say they don't trust you"

Chase looked down, feeling guilty and ashamed of what he had said. He had let his anger get the better of him again. -You finally get someone to like you and of course you gotta fuck up immediately-

"You guys sound like a couple, the way Ruby just scolded you"

Chase looked at Pyrrha in surprise and then looked at Ruby who was wearing the same look of shock on her face. Pyrrha looked at them both before replying.

"Wait a minute… you two are… I was just kidding"

"Yeah, it kinda sort of happened last night"

"Well I'm so glad for you two" she said with a hint of sadness

"Don't worry, Jaune can't stay oblivious forever"

"He's certainly giving it his best shot"

"I don't think he's as oblivious as you all think. He just lacks confidence and wonders why you would like him. You gotta be direct"

"Thanks"

"Besides I'm the one you should feel sorry for, what's gonna happen when Yang finds out."

Ruby looked at Chase with genuine fear on her face "She mightn't kill you"

"Thanks for the confidence boost"

"No problem" she said with a smirk

"Anyway we have to get going to get to the Bullhead"

"I nearly forgot about that"

They left the building and headed to the plaza where they hoped that the Bullhead would go to meet up with them. When they got there they saw the people from before clearing the area of grimm.

"Why would they be clearing the grimm away?"

"Probably to make sure they could get out"

"But why leave if they were searching for us?"

They saw a Bullhead land in the plaza and the pilot got out to talk to the lead scientist while his guards kept an eye on the surrounding area for any signs of grimm.

"Guys that's the pilot that picked up Jaune and the civilians"

"Are you sure?"

"Completely, I talked to him before coming to find you guys"

"Then dust knows what's happening to those civilians right now"

"The hell if I'm waiting to find out!"

Ruby grabbed him to pull Chase back "You promised no dying, we need a plan before we walk into there"

"You're right….. we need to keep the pilot and the Bullhead intact if we want to find out where Jaune and the civilians are"

"I don't believe they'll fall for a surrender at this point"

"Not from me they won't, but if they can't see me get on"

"What did I tell you about going in alone"

"Never said I was, Ruby you can use your speed to get on without them noticing?"

"Pfft easy"

"RIght, Pyrrha, we need you to-"

Chase felt a jolt of electricity enter his body, he tried to prevent his body from stopping but he fell to his knees quickly. He saw Ruby and Pyrrha follow him before everything went dark

He woke up sitting in the Bullhead, he saw Ruby and Pyrrha sitting opposite him, awake as he was, he cursed under his breath.

"You guys are persistent, I'll give you that"

"Not persistent we just planned ahead"

"So what you start again with all the civilians you captured and to what to us?"

"Well, you are completely useless now but we can test out new things on your….friends"

"I'd love to see you try, really. You don't have the advantage of being their saviour."

"In due time they'll see us as their heroes but for now we play the part of the villain because it suits us"

"You wouldn't…."

A/N Sorry for this chapter being a day late but I wasn't happy with what I had for yesterday and had to re-write parts of it, anyway, hope you enjoyed
