Chapter 12: Cover Story

"Ruby, where is your sister?" Professor Holt asked. He was a large man, old and muscular.

"Oh, Yang, uh..." Her voice trailed off, her team left it up to her to think of Yang's excuse for her absence, but she had yet to think of a believable lie.

"She's sick," Blake cut in.

"She is at our dorm resting," Weiss finished.

"Very well, tell her I hope she recovers soon." The teacher seemed to buy into the story and continued with his lesson. That's how most of Team RWBY's classes went, several, however, required a bit more convincing.

"Yang would have reported any illness to her teachers on her scroll," Goodwitch strained.

"She's sleeping, I'm sure she just forgot to tell anyone before she went back to bed for the day."

"She has a lot of work to make up, including missed matches that will be done when she returns, and a doctor's note that will be on my desk tomorrow."

Ruby turned to her teammates and whispered, "Crap. What do we do?"

"Rikov might be able to get us a fake." The wolf Faunus was known for his unexplained absences followed by rather impressively convincing reasoning.

"Yeah, I might be able to help, but it'll cost ya." The right corner of the redhead's mouth curled up into a smirk.

"Cost us? Yang is in the same position as Velvet!" Blake exclaimed irritatedly.

"Exactly. I spent all my spare time in last two days working on her cover."

"Well is there anyone that can help us for cheaper price?"

"I know one guy, a senior, he might be able to work something out for Yang."

"Who is he?"

"Luke Shadow-Rider. He's usually clean, but you could get something out of him for a slightly lesser price."

"How much?" Blake pulled her wallet from her pocket and held it between two fingers.

"Not money. He'll do it on one condition,"

"What?!" Ruby cried out.

"Rikov said if we want this guy to forge a doctor's note and medical file updates, we have to steal his confiscated 'equipment' from Ozpin's office."

"Stealing from Ozpin?" Weiss began, "How? It couldn't be done."

"It's the only option we have, otherwise we would have to admit Yang's disappearance." Blake said what they all knew. This was the only way. "I'll talk to the guy tonight to get the full story. We'll need to break in just after sundown."

The other girls agreed with the Faunus and started brainstorming as to where the confiscated forgery tools might be stored. Later that afternoon, nearest an hour before the sunset, the three huntresses of Team RWBY tracked down the senior. When they got his dorm number from the school records they immediately made for the room.

Blake knocked on the door of room thirteen-fourteen and called the inhabitants name.

"You're Blake?" The boy may have been older by several years, but his appearance would fool one into believing him to be Ruby's age.

"Yeah."

"Then you know what to do."

"We need details. Where is this thing kept?"

"I caught a glimpse of it once in the main office."

"Great-"

"In his desk."

"Shit."

A/N: Short chapter I know, but I needed to get something published soon. Luke Shadow writer belongs to the profile, LukeShdowRider, it is his OC placed in the story at his request.
