AN: a few things for one the only thing I own for this story is the oc's and there weapons everything else belongs to rooster teeth. Two don't hate me for giving a bad story. Three please leave a comment at the end. Four I was wondering if I should get crimson with neo I probably will.

The school was in chaos for the upcoming dance and being one of the few single mail students and theres me being a powerhouse, a straight A student, heir to a large corporation, and fairly attractive according to most so the halls are like walking in a pit of grimm. Thank goodness for ravens semblance. It is currently combat class and pyrrha just mopped the floor with Cardin's team but she did take damage on her aura it is not a lot but enough to not allow her to do another battle so I volunteer to do the next battle but when I got down the person I was facing was somewhat familiar it was probably someone I fought using aura strings so I should use other tactics to fight him maybe use a combination of rion's weapon and lily's semblance of time dilation yes I will go with that let's show this kid just how strong I am. When I enter the combat arena I am wearing a different outfit I have a dark blue trench coat with black accents and on the right side of my heart two is my symbol crossing swords behind a silver shield with a crimson crescent moon on it my wing are still hidden and I am wearing marionette on my back and am focusing on my other senses to tell me more. From what I could tell he had weaponized prosthetic legs just by the way he walked that don't change my plan of attack.

"Begin" Glinda called the start of the match.

Mercury charged at me hoping he could get some shots on me as soon as possible but I doge by using time dilation and use 5 disks from my weapon to create a paladin as to distract Mercury it worked fairly well cause he is already at half health so I disapat the construct as not to drain the disks to much now in my hand is a copy of ace in hand then, activate the umbrella feature of it to toy with him but he hesitates this added to other facts that make me suspicious about him and his team "'torch said before we parted that his boss had infiltrated beacon and that she had some complexes with her they say there from haven but ben would of told me about a team like them on the other hand they could not have gotten here if they weren't in the system for a little while that means that haven academy is probably compromised. Considering the headmaster there it is very likely'" I mentally sweat dropped at that thought though physically I have been fighting Merc blocking and dodging all his attacks it was not all that hard after a while he is quite predictable and I decided it was time to end it cause the other four disks each have an energy cannon pointed at Merc ready to fire not that he knew he was to distracted on the weapon in my hand to notice the unaccounted for disk's. I taunt him. He charges. I jump. The cannons fire all hitting him at the sametime completely draining his aura.

"Match end Crimson wins the match" Glinda said.

I walk up to Mercury and give him a hand to help him get up and he takes it "you did pretty well against me" Mercury replied "easy for you to say I did not even land a scratch on you" "true and I was not really going at it and you did not pay attention to your surroundings and were getting predictable but I noticed your technique was nearly flawless and not once did you use a semblance in addition to you did not get overconfident when I removed the paladin from the floor and switched to an umbrella so overall you did fairly well" with that me and Mercury parted ways "'I am going to have to mention something about this to Ozpin soon'"

"I told you to lay low so why did you out right challenge someone" cinder hissed at me. "I wanted to fight Pyrrha to see how good she was but the professor would not allow it and a different student offers in her place and he was strong he defeated me without trying sometimes it felt like he was playing with me that was only made more evident when he depleted half of my aura with one attack" I said. "He was that strong what was his name" Cinder asked almost intrigued. "I forget his name at the moment but his emblem had a red moon on it" I said hoping that she would not yell at me for not paying attention. "Would it have been a crescent moon?" she asked. "It was and it was on a silver shield with crossing swords behind it" I answered thankful that she was not yelling at me. "That sounds like two family emblems combined into one those being the arsenals and the crescents both very powerful families. This could mean a lot of trouble for the plan." Cinder said.

It was the night of the dance and it was not easy to get it ready in time cause of weiss and yang disagreeing and a few other problems popping up here and there. I then, got a text from Neo telling me about what was up that they were currently a underground crime network in a underground crime network. I chuckle at that statement as I did a head count of everyone here at the dance I saw Jaune and Pyrrha together then, there was Ren and Nora both were blushing slightly and stealing glances at the other Nora more evidently than Ren, Weiss and Neptune were talking to each other those two both almost came alone just because Neptune can't dance I talked to him about that and suggested Ren and Jaune teach him it seems like Blake and Yang came to the party together sun was causing trouble every so often and ruby was guarding the punch bowl but there was someone was missing it was Cinder I look outside of the window to find a suspicious figure running across the roof of another building thankfully I always ,ever since I finished, carried death's cloak with me so I make a portal to the roof and I follow the person without them knowing. I follow them all the way to the cct tower and snuck into the elevator with her. When she got out I followed out and waited for her to start working and took a picture and then, shot the terminal with ace completely destroying what she was doing. "Are we doing this the easy way or the fun way" I say as I reveal myself but right after the elevator opened with ironwood and ruby in it the figure I suspect is cinder then threw an attack at them I turn ace of spades into an umbrella and blocked the attack but she got away. I walked up to what the person put in the terminal it was a usb in the shape of a red queen for a chess game I picked it up as Ironwood asked "What was she here for?". "I don't know James but if I had to hazard a guess it has something to do with this" I say as I throw the item that I had just found to the general "I will see you tomorrow for the debrief along with ruby" I said as I exited vea portal along with ruby to head back to enjoy the party and get an image of Cinder entering the ballroom with the time showing.
