*Adam is currently looking through a stack of old family photos when someone appeared in the security room*
?: Whoa, I wasn't expecting that.
Adam: Oh, hey Marie. What's up?
Marie: Oh, hey Adam. Where's Melody? I wanted to give her some advice. Plus, I need to deliver some stuff for Weiss.
Adam: Last I checked, Melody was in the break room.
Marie: Ok, thanks Adam!
After Odin explained about himself, the elevator doors opened to reveal a woman with a leopard print outfit, with cat ears, and a y-shaped tail, carrying a box.
"Huh, oh, hey Marie. What's up?" Tronmaster asked to the now named Marie.
"Wait, who is this?" Qrow asked.
"Are you a relative of Blake's?" Yang asked jokingly.
"This is Marie, she's a Nekomata. She works for Phoenix Champion." Alicia answered.
"I'm also a friend of his. Anyway, I'm here for a couple of reasons. One, is to give some stuff to Weiss." Marie said, motioning to the box in her hands.
"What's in the box?" Jaune asked, not knowing he referenced a famous movie.
"A Spider Web, a Cursed Spike, and a Coral Fragment?" Neptune asked.
"Awesome." Weiss said.
"Anyway, I'm going to talk to Melody, cause I have several kittens of my own, so I'm best suited to give some advice about having multiple kids." Marie said, walking into the elevator.
"Well, that was a thing." Sun said, as Ren began to read.
[Team RWBY's Dorm]
[No P.O.V.]
"Guess it's time to go back into our dorm." Weiss said, absorbing the stuff gotten from Marie.
"Yeah, but for what reason?" Blake asked.
"I can't believe it." Weiss said exasperated after reading the Timber Maniac's article, "Musaline used four disguised to train at all four academies."
"Oh man, that means she's got, what, sixteen years of official academy training, plus her Sorceress powers?!" Tai said, "Is it even possible to beat her?"
"Although she's highly trained, and extremely powerful, she isn't invincible." Alicia said, comforting Tai.
"Sixteen years of official academy training, plus her powers of a Sorceress..." Blake mused, "Is it even possible to defeat her?"
"Like Alicia said, even with her many years of official training, plus her Sorceress powers, she isn't invincible." Sun said, "Strong as shit? Yes. Invincible? Hell no!"
"That's, rather comforting Sun, thanks." Ruby said, smiling.
"No problem Ruby." Sun said.
"Maybe with our Guardian Forces we can." Yang said, "Ruby what do you think?"
Ruby opened her mouth, only to eat a white rose petal caused by Summer's appearance.
"Blegh, I always hate when that happens." Raven said.
"One time! That happened ONE TIME!" Summer said.
"What does a rose petal caused by your Semblance taste like?" Jaune asked.
"Coconut." Tronmaster said, grimacing.
"Ack! Pphha! Blech!" Ruby shouted spitting the rose petal out of her mouth.
"Why exactly DO you know what that taste likes?" Qrow asked Tronmaster.
"Long story short, when Alicia used her Semblance, I accidentally got a face full of rose petals." Tronmaster replied.
All Alicia could do was blush bashfully.
"Ruby, Yang, I need you two for about an hour." Summer said, grabbing the half-sisters.
"Okay, I do tend to do that." Summer said bashfully.
"What the-" Yang said caught off guard before she, Ruby, and Summer vanished in a cloud of petals.
"What just happened?" Blake asked.
"I have no clue." Weiss said.
"What IS your Semblance Alicia?" Penny asked.
"Quantum Positioning." Alicia said, "I essentially can use my Semblance to exist in all possible positions at once."
"Huh, cool." Ruby said.
[Forever Fall]
"I guess we're going to Forever Fall now." Winter said.
"Yep." Qrow said.
A cloud of petals appeared, leaving the teleported trio on the ground in their wake.
"Ugh, that always makes me dizzy." Tai said.
"Try turning into a bird repeatedly on a dare." Raven said, Qrow nodding.
Ruby and Yang doubled over from the jarring sensation.
"Urrggh." Yang groaned.
"I thought I could take it..." Ruby groaned.
"That is disorienting." Qrow said.
"Oops." Summer said before teleporting away, and then back holding Crescent Rose and Ember Celica, "Sorry, probably should have given you some warning about that."
"Probably." Ruby said getting back up, and lifting Yang up with her.
"Again, it's quite disorienting when it comes to Summer's Semblance." The rest of team STRQ said in unison.
"I'm gonna take your word for it." Penny said.
"So why are we in the middle of the Forever Fall forest at almost noon on Saturday?" Yang asked putting Ember Celica on.
"Probably to go after whatever's causing the mist." Glynda said.
"Wait a minute..." Calcabrina mused.
"Well." Summer said pulling out an issue of Occult Fan, "Apparently every Saturday an unusual mist rolls in and people claim to see a figure snaking through the mist."
"Okay..." Yang said, I don't get it mom."
"I think I know who she's talking about." Calcabrina mused to herself.
"Seriously?" Neptune asked.
Summer sighed, "I think it might be a Guardian Force, so I want to find it before Musaline... Plus I kinda want to have one myself."
"Ah, gotcha." Penny said.
"Oh, I get a Guardian Force?" Summer asked.
"Yep." Tronmaster said, nodding.
"Awesome." Summer said.
"Figures." Alexander said appearing translucently, "Still at least I can aid you in this endeavor."
"Right, being a master of wind, Alexander can possibly help to clear the mist." Winter said.
"Hmm..." Ifrit hummed appearing translucently as well, "I'm not aware of any Guardian Force that could control mist... so it's probably one I'm not familiar with."
"I think I might know who it is." Calcabrina said.
"Is it another boss from Final Fantasy IV?" Nora asked.
"Yes and no." Alicia answered, "Tronmaster will explain later."
"Well that's gonna be a bit of trouble." Summer said deploying her weapon.
Right as the mist rolled in.
"Knowing me, that mist is going to mess with my hair." Raven said.
"And considering who your daughter is, Yang's gonna be like that." Ifrit joked.
"I can't see squat." Yang said a little annoyed.
"Me neither." Ruby said, "Mom? Yang?"
"Try living in Michigan when a thick fog rolls in." Tronmaster said, "Damn lake-effect weather."
"Right here!" Summer called.
"I have a bad feeling about this." Qrow said.
"AHHH!" Yang shouted causing the other two to jump, "My hair's a fritz up!"
"Ugh, I hate it when that happens!" Yang and Raven yelled at the same time.
"Like mother, like daughter." Alicia said, shrugging.
"Figure's that's what would cause Yang to scream." Ruby groaned.
"Of all the things she inherited from Raven, it had to be her temper and the love for her own hair..." Summer said.
"Yep. That's Rae in a nutshell." Qrow said, chuckling.
"And that's Yang for ya." Nora said.
"I'm sick of not seeing squat!" Yang shouted, causing her hair to ignite.
This warmed up the air, dispersing the mist.
"Great, at east we can see." Ruby said.
And revealing a pure white draconic head.
"HOLY SHIT!" Yang yelled.
"YANG! FUCK!" Blake said, covering her cat ears.
"HOLY!-" Yang shouted throwing a reaction punch at the dragon, knocking it's head to the side.
"Yang what was- WHOA!" Ruby shouted turning to the dragon head.
"Yeah, I'd honestly throw a reactionary punch too.
"Like mother, like daughter." Winter said, repeating what Alicia said.
The mist began to rapidly disperse, leaving behind only a little mist that left the head, long serpentine neck, shoulders, and a pair of wings not hidden by the fog, but one could barely make out that it had a quadrupedal body structure.
"Misty!" Calcabrina said, snapping her fingers.
"Who?" Penny asked.
"The Mist Dragon, while first appearing in Final Fantasy IV, has only made other appearances in the spinoffs." Tronmaster said.
"Huh, neat." Pyrrha said.
[FF8 OST: Force your Way]
"I love the music from this soundtrack so far." Yang said, "Also, sorry Blake." She added apologetically.
"It's alright Yang, just try to keep your voice down sometimes." Blake said, Yang nodding.
"Scan." Ruby said casting the spell.
"Time to get a quick synopsis on her." Calcabrina said, knowing about Mist Dragon already.
[Mist Dragon: A Guardian Force that controls mist, very few have ever seen this GF due to the fact she hides within the Mist she creates. It can also turn into mist, attacking at this time is both pointless and dangerous.]
"Yep, she's like that a lot of the time." Calcabrina said, shrugging.
"She's called the Mist Dragon!" Ruby called.
"Well that's creative." Yang said rolling her eyes just before the Mist Dragon took a sudden bite at her, not piercing her Aura, but still hurting, "Ow."
"You try coming up with something creative." Said a voice from the mist in the corner.
"Huh, weird that we didn't notice that until now." Neptune said.
"Misty!" Calcabrina said, jumping onto Mist Dragon's neck as she revealed herself.
"Calcabrina, is that you?" Mist Dragon asked.
"Yep." Calcabrina said, "Don't ask, I don't get it either either."
"Fire!" Ruby called out casting the basic fire spell, causing the dragon to flinch from the sudden burst of fire.
Summer teleported above the Mist Dragon and fell into a spinning slash, hurting the Mist Dragon a bit more.
"Summer could totally rock it in the Survey Corps." Alicia whispered to Tronmaster.
"Oh yeah. I wouldn't want to have her as my commanding officer." Tronmaster whispered back.
Yang jumped up and slugged the Dragon once again, and then threw another punch, only for the Mist Dragon to catch her fist in her maw, "Oh man, not again." Yang groaned before the Dragon threw her away into a tree.
"Ouch. Guess her bark isn't as bad as her bite." Yang punned earning groans from most everyone.
"Goddammit Yang." Calcabrina said, now on Neptune's lap.
"How the fuck does she do that?" Raven mused to herself.
"Leave my sister alone you big meanie!" Ruby shouted dashing in and slicing several times with Crescent Rose.
However mid way through her fourth slash the Mist Dragon melted into a cloud of mist.
"Whoa!" Ruby cried out tumbling through the cloud of mist.
"Damn." Ruby and Weiss mumbled at the same time.
The Mist Dragon reappeared facing Ruby and took a deep breath before breathing out a stream of mist, and while normally mist wouldn't hurt, this was coming out with such force it started to cause severe damage to Ruby's Aura.
"Jeez. That looks like it hurts." Sun said, wincing.
"It probably does." Penny said.
Three sniper shot's struck the dragon in the head, causing it to turn to Summer just in time to see the mother slash the dragon in the face with her weapon before spinning the dual bladed weapon into another slash, "Don't you DARE hurt my little Rose!" Summer growled with ferocity as she slammed the heel of her boot into the Mist Dragon's snout.
"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." Alicia said.
"Make that woman a mother, and you'll wish that you were never born." Tronmaster finished.
The Mist Dragon Tumbled over from the force of the attack as Summer slammed her boot on it's neck and shifted her weapon into Sniper mode and began to fire point blank at the dragon several times until her clip ran dry.
"Jesus grandma Sum, overkill much?" Alicia asked jokingly.
"Enough!" A forceful, female voice erupted from the Mist dragon, "I have seen enough."
[OST end]
"I guess you impressed her." Glynda said.
"Yep." Summer said.
Summer took her boot of the dragons neck, allowing it to lift itself back up.
"Ow..." Ruby said getting up slowly.
"My apologies for the fierceness of my attack child." The Mist Dragon said as blue particles appeared around the Dragon before the effect of Cura could be seen on Ruby.
"Did she cast Cura on my other?" Ruby asked.
"For her sake, she better have." Weiss growled.
"Hey uhh..." Yang said, "Sorry for the uh..." Yang said touching her jaw in the same spot she had originally slugged the Mist Dragon.
"Yeah, that looked like it hurt." Jaune said.
"No kidding." Pyrrha said.
"Apology accepted." The Mist Dragon said, "I shouldn't have gotten so close to your face, I was simply curious as to your scent."
"Huh?" Yang asked.
"I'm with my other, what?" Yang said.
"I'm sure that she'll explain." Ifrit said.
"Well you smell different from most humans, like an eternal flame, only stronger than the flames and ash I have smelt in the past." Mist Dragon explained.
"That would probably be me you smelled." Ifrit said appearing.
"And I smell good." Ifrit said, smirking.
This caused the Mist Dragon to turn her head sharply to Ifrit, "I don't believe we have met, Guardian Force, I am Mist Dragon, ruler of the mist."
"Ifrit, lord of hellfire." Ifrit introduced.
That's when Alexander appeared, "And I am Alexander, a pleasure to met you Mist Dragon."
"Aww, you guys are making friends." Nora said.
"The pleasure is mine." Mist Dragon said, then she looked at Summer, "You... don't have a Guardian Force do you?"
"No." Summer said shaking her head.
"Not yet, anyway." Summer said.
"In that case, I shall aid you." Mist Dragon said rubbing her snout along Summer's face, "If you'll have me."
"Of course." Summer said hugging the dragons neck.
"Our turn now." Summer said, mirroring her other.
"Alright Qrow, it's your-" Ren said, before a massive explosion rocked the ship.
"The fuck was that?!" Winter shouted.
"That would probably be Melody in our personal Hyperbolic Time Chamber." Tronmaster said.
"Um, why the hell do you have that?" Tai asked.
"Training." Alicia said, shrugging.
*Adam is busy repairing the security room, thanks to the explosion. And unbeknownst to him, a portal has opened up.*
Adam: Dammit Mel, you nearly blew up the security room. And, how WERE we able to feel that anyway.
?: I don't know Adam, can you explain why you missed our anniversary?
*Adam turns around to see an older Ruby Rose (this Ruby will be known as OOH Ruby, or 'Order of Heroes Ruby' from here), and she's quite pissed off.*
Adam: Heh, hey babe. Yeah, the ship's security tried killing Melody, Jenkins and I, breaking the transwarp generator.
OOH Ruby: Just get Melody to repair it.
Adam: *Chuckles nervously*
OOH Ruby: Jesus Christ.
