Wow, it's chapter 13, nobody saw that coming! So, Ultra's part of the Brotherhood, and Epsilon's... not really doing much. Just watching the tournament unfold and hanging out with Team RWBY. Look, I know he ain't doing much, but canon is canon. But hey, everyone likes Ultra, right, breaking the fourth wall is funny, right. Right!

Chapter Thirteen - Family Feud

"NEPTUNE!" Sun yelled to Neptune as Dew, Nebula and Gwen all aim their weapons at him, ready to attack.

"Okay, fine! Just get out of the water!" Neptune ordered as Sun leapt out of the water biome. Neptune unfolded his weapon into the trident form and carefully tip-toed towards the water, much to Sun's annoyance. He plunged the electrical trident into the water and electrocuted the water, draining Dew's, Nebula's and Gwen's aura and ending the match.

"And with that, Team SSSN moves on to the double round!" Port declared and turned to his fellow professor. "You know what I call that victory?"

"Shocking?" Oobleck joked.

"No, well earned. What you said is stupid." Port scolded as Oobleck frowned.

Ruby leaned back into her seat and sighed heavily. "Aww, that was so close!"

"Looks like the dorks made it to the next round!" Yang cheered. Blake looked down at the arena and blushed when Sun gave her a wink with a double-gun gesture.

"Emphasis on 'dork'." Blake pointed out, hiding her blush. Yang elbowed me and chuckled knowingly, making me sigh.

"Yes, Yang, I saw it too." I muttered. I suddenly think back to the beacon prom. Man, I almost forgot about that...

"That concludes the matches for today. Please leave the Coliseum IN A CALM AND ORDERLY FASHION!" Oobleck told the audience as we all covered our ears from the loud pitched noise.

"Come on, let's go congratulate 'em." Yang said, and the five of us left to go meet with Team SSSN. Weiss looked up to the sky through the open ceiling of the Coliseum and froze at the sight of an overhead ship. Ruby, not paying full attention, walked into the back of Weiss.

"Uh, what are you doing?" Ruby asked awkwardly. Weiss's expression changed to a surprised, happy, anxious and sad face.

"She's here!" The heiress ran off past me, Blake and Yang, Ruby soon following after her. The three of us just looked at them, confused.

"Um, what are they doing?" Yang asked awkwardly.

"I don't really know. I heard Weiss sounding... I don't know. Happy?" I asked myself. Blake looked up at the sky and saw the ship.

"Weiss probably spotted that ship. I believe it belongs to Winter." Blake stated.

"Who's Winter?" Yang asked.

"Yang, that's Weiss's sister." I told her.

"Wait, Weiss has a sister!?" Yang exclaimed. I just rubbed my eyes frustratingly.

"Yang, she's told you dozens of times. Do you really not care or do you just forget that easily?" I asked, surprised. Yang just turned away, blushing lightly.

"... Both..." Yang admitted. I sighed.

"I'm going after them. Ruby will probably do something to anger one of the Schnee sisters." I told them and ran to catch up to the two.

"Really, Yang?" Blake deadpanned. Yang just huffed annoyingly and walked out of the stands with Blake.

Beacon Academy...

Weiss jogged up to the edge of Beacon docks where the ship she spotted earlier hovered, Ruby just behind her with me just beside her.

"Weiss! What's the big deal!? Who is it? Who is she!?" Ruby asked multiple times, gesturing to the woman who just exited the ship.

"Winter." Weiss said simply, smiling a little.

"Umm..." Ruby thought who 'Winter' was.

"It's her sister." I whispered to her, and she widened her eyes.

"Wait... Your sister?" Ruby asked confusingly as Winter stood outside the ship, glancing around Beacon.

"Winter!" Weiss yelled, slightly surprising Ruby. I leant over to Ruby

"Ruby, how did you forget about Weiss's sister!?" I whisper-yelled at her.

"I'm sorry, I'vebeenrunningandI'mallconfusedaboutwhyWeissishappyorshowinganyemotionatall!" Ruby quickly explained, closing her eyes in fear. I thought for a second what she said, and just sighed.

"Ruby, I'm not mad. Man, you and Yang are so similar." I said, waling towards Weiss and Winter, Ruby following just behind me.

"Winter! I'm so happy to see you!" She exclaimed, but froze. "Oh... your presence honors us." Weiss said more politely with a curtsies.

"Beacon... It's been a long time. The air feels... different." Winter said to herself, walking towards her sibling as me and Ruby approached.

"I mean it is fall, so, eh, it's probably colder." Ruby said nervously. Weiss sighed and went to punch Ruby, but instead fell to the floor as I punched her before she could hurt Ruby. I coughed and turned to Winter.

"Hello, my name is Epsilon Xiao Long." I said to the woman, holding out my hand. She smiled lightly and shook it.

"Greeting, Epsilon, it's nice to finally meet in person." Winter said.

"Hold on, you two know each other?" Ruby asked.

"Atlas specialists know a lot of things, including advanced artificial intelligence inside synthetic human bodies. I've known about Epsilon here for about a month now." Winter explained. Ruby looked confused.

"She's really smart, so she knows what I am." I simplified, getting a satisfied 'hmm' from Ruby. Weiss got back up, rubbing her forehead.

"Dunce." She muttered at me angrily. Her mood turned positive as she turned back to Winter. "So, what are you doing here?"

"Classified."

"Oh, right. Well, how long are you staying?" Weiss asked with enthusiasm.

"Classified." Winter said, more emphasis in her voice.

"Of course." She said, understanding, with a small smile. Ruby looked around pensively in silence.

"Well... this is nice... I think." Ruby said.

"Awkward..." I said with a high pitch.

"You're going to love it here!" Weiss exploded with excitement, greatly scaring me and Ruby, "I know you travel a lot, but so much of Beacon is different from Atlas! Vale, too. The government and school are completely separate! Can you believe it!? I-"

"I'm more than familiar with how this kingdom handles it's... bureaucracy." Winter interrupted. "That's not why I came."

"Right! I'm sorry!" Weiss apologised, lowering her head in shame.

"Nor did I come here to watch my own blood fail so miserably in battle." Winter scolded. "Bit it appears I have no choice."

"To be fair, they did win their fight. Even if it was a little showboating." I told the elder Schnee.

"Exactly. I counted at least three strikes missed." Winter said, making Weiss cringe a little. "Leave us." The two AK-200's took two steps back. I looked at them confused.

"That's 'leave us'? They're right there!" I exclaimed, gesturing at the AK's.

"How have you been?" Winter asked her younger sibling in a warmer tone, ignoring my question.

"Oh, splendid! Thank you for asking. I'm actually in the very to ranking in our sparring class, bar Epsilon." Weiss muttered the last part to herself. "And the rest of my studies are going wonderfully, too! I'm-"

Weiss was cut off as Winter hit her over the head with a loud slap, causing a large bump on Weiss's head. "Silence, you boob! I don't recall asking about your ranking, I'm asking how you've been. Are you eating properly? Have you taken up any hobbies? Are you making new friends?"

"Well, there's Ruby." Weiss gestured to said girl.

"Thanks Weiss." I said coldly.

"You punched me thirty seconds ago." Weiss glared at me.

"You tried to hit Ruby!" I argued.

"Heh, boob." Ruby giggled as she pushed the bump back into Weiss's head.

"I see." Winter said and turned to Ruby. "So this is the leader you wrote of. How appropriately... underwhelming."

"Uh... Thank you!" Ruby thanked, greatly surprising me.

"Greetings, Ruby Rose. I wish to thank you for taking an interest in my sister." Winter thanked.

"Don't say that! The WhiteRose fan's take it too seriously!"

"Oh! Uh, yes, of course! The honor is in my... court!" Ruby said, attempting to curtsy and almost falling over. I grabbed her to stop her from falling and helped her up as she laughed nervously.

"I have business with the General and your Headmaster. And a psychopath. But, seeing as I'm early, why don't you take me to your quarters?" Winter suggested.

"A psychopath?" I asked.

"Really!?" Weiss asked loudly over my question.

"Yes." She said as she and Weiss walked towards Beacon, the AK's following behind them. "I wish to inspect them and make sure that they are up to my personal standards."

"Of course. Just so you're aware, the bunk beds only look unstable." Weiss informed her.

"Bunk beds?" Winter asked, confused.

"I'll catch up- I mean, I will... reconvene with you both... at a later..." Ruby paused with her hand on her head. "Juncture!" She looked up at me as I shook my head.

"Nice try, Ruby." I said, laughing slightly to myself, making her pout.

"Shut up! I got nervous." She muttered. I just grinned at I rubbed my eyes, holding back laughter. Behind the AK's following the Schnee sisters, Qrow and Ultra watched as they headed towards Beacon.

"You stay here, you're too drunk. I've got this." Ultra assured, unsheathing his right machete. Qrow just gave a half-hearted thumbs up before taking out his flask and taking another gulp of alcohol. Ultra sneaked behind the two AK-200's and stabbed his machete through one of their chests. He ripped the head off the other one and threw it at the Schnee siblings. "Hey!"

The two girls turned around and saw Ultra holding one of the bodies easily in one arm. Winter glared at him and Weiss widened her eyes in surprise. "Yeah, I'm talking to you, Ice Bitch." He threw the body at them, landing at their feet. The remaining AK-200's all raised their guns and aimed them at Ultra.

"Halt!" Winter ordered. Weiss was too afraid to talk. Ultra turned to Winter's ship.

"I spotted that ship heading towards Beacon. Guess you're here too." Ultra stated.

"I'm standing right before you." Winter also stated. Ultra squinted at her, pretending he didn't notice.

"Really, I didn't notice. I guess I was yelling at the other Ice Bitch." Ultra looked at Weiss with a wink. She immediately hid behind one of the AK-200's.

"You realize you just destroyed Atlas Military property." Winter told him.

"I don't give a fuck. Those feeble excuses for robots are nothing but garbage compared to, I don't know, sentient garbage." He said to the Schnee.

"I don't have time for your immature games, Ultra." Winter said, stepping towards him.

"Wait, you two know each other?" Weiss asked, poking her head out from behind the robot.

"Geez, you Atlas specialists think your so special, don't you?" Qrow asked, stepping, or more stumbling, out of the crowd of people. "Knowing about AI's doesn't make you any better than anyone else around here.

"Qrow." Winter said coldly. "It's in the title."

"Well, you know what you really are? A bunch of sellouts. Just like your boss." Qrow said to her.

"I'm not sure what you think you're implying, but I've heard enough." Winter warned.

"Oh I heard, too. I heard ol' Ironwood finally turned his back on Ozpin." Qrow said angrily.

"He what? That bastard!" Ultra yelled, clenching his fist.

"How dare you say that about the General, you AI abomination!" Winter yelled back, drawing her rapier. Qrow reached for his for his scythe, but Ultra stops him.

"Not a fucking chance. You're drunk off your ass, you'll probably kill her quickly. She doesn't deserve something that merciful for what she said." Ultra said, reaching down to the fallen AK-200 to pull out his machete. He swung it a few times in his hand and pointed it at Winter.

"You're move, Schnee."

Winter sped forward, aiming her rapier at Ultra and stabbed him multiple times in the body and once through the eyes. Ultra just sighed as the holes in his body instantly fixed themselves as Winter watched in horror.

"You think you know me. You don't know a thing about me." Ultra spun and swung his machete down at Winter, who leapt backwards and readjusted herself to a ready stance. Ultra held his machete and aimed it towards Winter, who moved her rapier in the way, causing sparks from the contact between them. Ultra grinned and swung his machete at her neck, which she back flipped out of the way to avoid. Ultra swung three more times and Winter avoided the three by dodging. Ultra swung again and Winter stopped the blow with her rapier, glaring at Ultra. Qrow took out his folded scythe and attacked Winter, pushing Ultra back.

"Qrow, you dumb bastard, what are you doing!?" Ultra yelled. He ignored and continued attacking. The two traded attacks, blocking each others attacks as me and Ruby approached Weiss.

"What's going on?" Ruby asked.

"Ultra and some crazy guy just started attacking my sister!" Weiss exclaimed.

"He what!?" I yelled.

"Oh no! Who would do such a th- That is my Uncle!"

"What?!" Weiss yelled confused.

"KICK HER BUTT, UNCLE QROW!" Ruby yelled at the top of her lungs.

"Ultra, what are you doing!?" I yelled at the other AI.

"She called AI's abominations!" He yelled. I widened my eyes in shock and narrowed them.

"Take her head off, Ultra!" I cheered. Weiss looked at me and Ruby in surprise.

"Uh... Teach them respect, Winter!" Weiss yelled.

Qrow sliced at Winter, who dodged the attack and slammed the back of her rapier in his face, knocking him back and disorienting him. He growled in anger and charged, but Ultra stopped him.

"Stop. Attacking. You. Drunk. Bastard." Ultra said slowly. He turned to Winter, unsheathed his right machete and attacked her at super human speed as she did the same, attacking so fast it was barely noticeable. Mercury walked through the crowd and stopped at the sight of Ultra and Winter fighting. He ran off from the battle and back into Beacon.

Ultra continued his violent assault at Winter, slamming his machete against her rapier, scratching and denting it. As they moved up the path, Winter slashed her rapier across his face, cutting a deep gash from his right eyebrow to his left cheek. He grinned smugly as it instantly repaired itself and swung his machete down at her. Winter summoned a glyph on the floor and jumped back, Ultra hitting the glyph with his weapon and causing a large explosion. She landed off the path with a smug smile, which immediately faded as Ultra jumped at her and sliced at her, missing and slicing the column next to her, making it fall from the lack of support.

Ultra sliced at her a couple more times, and she was forced to fall back, jumping onto the platform that used to be a column and leaping off that before Ultra threw the machete into the platform. He ripped it out of the platform and sheathed it, chasing after the Schnee. She jumped dozens of feet into the air and landed onto a metal beam. Winter immediately jumped off it as Ultra shot it with his pistol, holstering it back on his waist. She stabbed her rapier into the stone structure surrounding the outside of Beacon and glared down at Ultra, who angrily growled at her and chased.

She ran up the wall of the structure, dodging bullets from Ultra as he ran from the ground. Winter jumped down the other side of the wall and onto the large curve of the structure, running with her rapier pointed behind her. Ultra continued shooting at her, getting more and more frustrated as he continued missing the shots. He jumped hundreds of feet up and onto the other side of the arc shaped structure to be at the same level as Winter. He fired a few more shots and she continued evading them.

Ultra, fed up with not being able to kill her, threw a red dust crystal across the structure, landing right in front of Winter. Ultra shot it and caused a large red dust explosion, covering the surrounding area with red smoke. He released the clip from the gun and reloaded it, cocked it and holstered the gun. He narrowed his eyes at the red smoke, looking to see if Winter was a pile of ash.

Much to his annoyance, Winter shot out of the smoke, yelling angrily and aiming her rapier directly at Ultra's head. "Why won't you just fucking die! I know you're canon, but come on!". Ultra sighed in annoyance and unsheathed his right machete, holding it in front of him to defend her attack. She twisted the hilt of her rapier and a smaller one appeared, which she grabbed in her other hand. Ultra cocked an eyebrow and unsheathed his other machete, holding them both in front of him with a grin. She collided into him, causing the structure beneath them to crack and collapse, sending them both into the ground and causing a small crater.

The two immediately started attacking again, Winter with new found determination to kill the unkillable AI. She stabbed both rapier's forward, yelling in fury, sending him flying back. He stabbed his machete into the ground to slow himself down, causing a long crack along the ground, soon pulling it out of the ground and holding the two machete's in front of him, grinning. Winter held out her small rapier and spun it a few times, making it bigger and stabbed it into the ground, making a large glyph beneath her. She summoned a flock of white, miniature Nevermore's which flew directly at Ultra. He swung both his machete's at the flock, destroying them before they hit them.

Winter knelt with a smug smile as more and more Nevermore's flew at Ultra, thinking she had overpowered him. He threw both his machete's at her, one of them slicing her left cheek and the other slicing her upper left arm, forcing her to stop the glyph angrily. Winter and Ultra glared at each other. Winter narrowed her eyes and frowned angrily and formed a glyph behind her. Ultra reached for her pistols, but was stopped by Qrow.

"I've got this." He said. He took out his folded scythe and the clockwork started spinning, causing it to separate at several parts, turning into the scythe mode. Winter spun around and the glyph got bigger and brighter, Qrow looked behind her and smirked, folding his scythe and putting it behind him again.

"You fucking tease." Ultra complained as Winter looked at the hunter curiously. He just slumped slightly and used his finger to dare her to come forward. She widened her eyes in fury and yelled, propelling herself forward screaming in rage. Her blade was mere inches from his throat when Ultra unsheathed his machete, ready to block the attack.

"SCHNEE!"

Winter froze, her rapier almost at Qrow's neck, with Ultra's machete against her neck. She turned around and saw Ironwood standing there with Penny behind him, curiously looking at the three in front of her. Winter immediately lowered her weapons and turned to Ironwood, addressing him.

"General Ironwood, sir!" She said clearly, showing full respect to her superior.

"What in the world do you think you're doing?" Ironwood asked angrily, approaching Winter.

"They started the altercation, sir!" She informed him.

"Bullshit! She stabbed me through the head before I even took out my weapon." Ultra yelled, making Winter cringe. He looked at Ultra briefly before turning to Winter.

"Is that right?" Ironwood asked her, and she looked down in shame, knowing he was technically right. "And you two." Qrow and Ultra glanced at each other and pointed at themselves in mock confusion. "What are you doing here?" He asked Qrow.

"I could be asking you the same thing." Qrow pointed out.

"I-"

"Now, now, everyone." Ozpin interrupted Ironwood as he and Glynda walked up the path to where they were. "There is a sanctioned fight happening just around the corner at the Colosseum, I believe it's an Elysium team fight, that I can assure has better seats... and popcorn."

"Break it up everyone!" Glynda ordered as Ozpin swirled his coffee. "We will take care of this mess." She glared at the three who caused the issue.

"Let's go." Ironwood ordered. He and Winter began to leave, Penny turning around to wave at Ruby, but looked slightly confused at the lack of me. At that moment, she was pulled off by someone and into the crowd. She turned to find me, who had dragged her away.

"Salutations, Epsilon!" She greeted, pulling me into a strong hug. I chuckled and hugged her back, letting her go after a few seconds. "It's good too see you again."

"Yeah, I'm glad this time you're not saving me from a murderous robot." We both laughed lightly. "I have something important to tell you, Penny."

"Okay, but you must be quick, or General Ironwood will notice I've disappeared." Penny told me.

"Right. To put it simply: Ultramega made a new body which looks just like us, but is made of recreating, indestructible metal nanobots, so he cannot die. He... lose his mind. I mean, he's completely insane. But, he's not our enemy anymore." I explained to her.

"So, he's our friend?" Penny asked hopefully.

"A friend is a long stretch. At most, we don't kill each other anymore. We did fight together in a match earlier. Did you see?" I asked her.

"Absolutely! You were amazing in that fight. Congratulations on your victory!" Penny said happily.

"Thank you, Penny. Now, I'm just warning you to be cautious with Ultra. I don't know if he'll try and talk to you, but be careful if you do. I don't want anything to happen to you." I said to her.

"Oh, I'm sure I'll be fine. Thank you for the concern though. I regret that I must go now." Penny said with a small frown.

"It's alright Penny, I'll come see your next match and see you afterwards." I told her, and she grinned.

"Thank you, Epsilon! I'll see you at a later time." She finished with another hug and departed with a wave. I waved back and left the crowd, approaching my psychopathic brother.

"Hey, did you see that fight? I was so awesome!" Ultra exclaimed, raising his arms in victory.

"It was okay, but you almost killed one of the most powerful people in Remnant." I scolded him.

"I wish I had. I can't though, she's canon." Ultra said sadly.

"Uncle Qrow!" We both turned to see Ruby jump onto Qrow's arm, who held her up as she swung from his arm. "Hi. It's so good to see you! Did you miss me? Did you miss me!?" She asked, moving closer to him with a large grin.

"Nope." He grinned, rubbing her hair. I turned to Ultra as he looked away.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked.

"It's too adorable to watch, it hurts." Ultra said, rubbing his eyes.

"Qrow!" Ozpin yelled, Qrow dropping his niece onto the ground as Glynda fixed the damage Ultra caused. "A word please."

"I think I'm in trouble." Qrow whispered to Ruby discreetly.

"Why? You didn't do anything badly?" Ruby pointed out. "But... you did attack a Schnee."

"Yeah, I did." He said, winking at her and bumping fists. "Catch ya later, kid." He walked off.

"So, he get's sent with Ozpin, but he get's off stot-free!?" Weiss exclaimed, pointing at Ultra.

"Hey, if the man doesn't want me to go, I won't go." Ultra reasoned.

"And you too, Ultra." Ozpin said without looking at him.

"Fuck! Well, I'm dead. Nice knowing you all." Ultra saluted and walked off.

"He's insane." I said.

"He's a psycho." Weiss said.

"He's a big bully!" Ruby said.

"I heard that!" Ultra yelled back at Ruby, making her jump behind Epsilon to protect herself. Ultra rolled his eyes and caught up to Ozpin. "Ozpin! Huge fan, glad to finally meet you."

"Ultra Mega." Ozpin said, looking at the AI. He took a sip of coffee and examined the android standing before him. "What are you afraid of?"

"Me? I don't fear anything. If anything, fear fears me." Ultra boasted. Ozpin just smirked and took a sip of coffee, walking ahead slightly. Ultra looked at him, confused, his attention caught as Qrow put a hand on his shoulder.

"Ultra, it's been nice knowing you. But you're a dead man." Qrow said, patting his shoulder and walking off with his hands in his pocket. Ultra looked at the group ahead of him.

"Help me."

End of Chapter Thirteen

Wow, this definitely went on longer than expected. I opted to take out the meeting in Ozpin's office and put it in the next chapter as this one is long enough without it. I'm wondering how people feel between the interactions between Penny and Epsilon, seeing as they are two very unique individuals, and essentially two third of a species. I hope it goes well, because their interactions will happen often, seeing as Penny is one of the people I put on the front of this Fanfiction. So, you know she's important, but more on that later. Right now is story recommendations:

Name: The Red Knight

Author: GrimmLocke420

Genre: Jaune and Ruby were finally dating after putting their awkward demeanour aside for once. Their newfound relationship will have obsticals along the way but they will always find ways to express their affections for each other.

As always, remember to follow, favourite and leave a review, and thanks for reading chapter thirteen.
