Another new and updated chapter for Son of Qrow coming up enjoy!.

Disclaimer: RWBY is owned by Monty Oum (RIP) along with Rooster Teeth.

"Well... After last night we decided to do a little digging as a favour for taking care of those Grimm." The leader of the bandits nervously spoke as Aodh continue'd to glare at him. "Well we found something interesting concerning them being linked in some way to the White Fang."

"The White Fang!?" Aodh demanded to know as he grabbed the bandit leader's collar. "Has there been much activity nearby here in recent months!?"

"there was a rumor going about a few weeks ago of them using a cabin deep in the forest. Apparently they've been using it as a a hideout. I have no idea if they were even there at all as I said it's just a rumor. But it's in roughly that direction." The leader then pointed in the general direction of the cabin.

"That's good to hear. If you don't mind tell my old man when he wakes up where I went off to" Aodh stated as he left to find the old hide out for the White Fang. "The one thing about rumors... There can be a trace of truth in a rumor.

Volume 1: Chapter 4: Into The Lion's Den.

Running through the forest swamp Aodh was quickly making his way towards the cabin the bandits informed him of. However he was unable to make out it's location through the forest itself he thought it would be best to get a higher view.

Climbing up the tallest nearby tree Aodh looked around the nearby area and seen a small line of smoke rising above the forest top.

"No idea if it's the fang or not but someone is using the cabin for sure. If it is the fang thankfully i'm downwind. I might have the element of surprise in my hand." Aodh thought to himself out loud as he quickly made his way down to the forest swamp floor by jumping off the nearby trees. He then continue'd his run towards the cabin.

(Qrow)

Qrow woke up with a groan and a killer headache. He looked around the room and couldn't find Aodh. "Kid must've gone to get some breakfast. What time is it?"

He looked at the his watch and seen it was just past noon. "Better find him and get going I suppose." Qrow once more groaned as he pulled himself out of bed and quickly showered.

Arriving downstairs he found the group of bandits from last night. "What the heck are you guys doing here?" Qrow asked as he rubbed the back of his pounding head.

"Ahh well we found a bit of information about those two you showed us last night." The pompadoured leader answered.

"Ohh... Well what did you find?" Qrow asked with a raised eyebrow.

"We couldn't find out there names but we found a location they might be at but..." The leader hesitated for a moment.

"But what?"

"The location they are supposed to be in is linked with the White Fang." The leader then seen a serious expression on Qrow's face. "But we honestly don't know if they're still there or not. Or even if they were even there," The leader quickly tired to save himself as he was expecting Qrow to lash out at him.

"Did you tell Aodh?" Qrow quietly asked.

"Well you see..."

"YES OR NO! DID YOU TELL THIS TO MY SON!" Qrow now shouted, demanding an answer.

"Yes!" The leader nervously answered. "He came down around two hours ago and we told him what we just told you."

"Idiot! Did he run off to that cabin?"

"Yes... He ran off straight away and asked us to wait to tell you this as well."

"Then I haven't got much time to waste then. What direction is this cabin roughly?"

(Aodh)

Moving towards the cabin downwind Aodh slowed down as he got closer not wanting to give away his presence. As he stopped he could hear voices and movement in front of him.

Upon coming up to an open clearing Aodh remained at the outskirts and hid in the bushes surrounding the open clearing. Looking at the cabin he could also see several tents erected around it as well as smoke rising from the cabin's chimney.

"It's too small to be the full force but it is enough to cause a lot of bother to the local authorities... Something's not right about this though." Aodh thought to himself as he rushed inwards and covered behind a crate. Aodh then started to eavesdrop on the nearest members of the White Fang nearby.

"So did you hear what the plan is in Vale?" One of the members of White Fang asked.

"I know as much as you do. I still can't believe we're listening to a human though." The other grunt spoke out in response.

"Well you didn't hear this from me but the boss apparently knew this human." A third member informed the other two.

"Yeah like that's real." The first member rejected.

"I'm serious! When the boss as a huntsman he knew this guy during that time." The third member replied.

'Vale... And Adam knows him... So he's working with Roman then... Ruby you have no idea how luck you are you avoided Adam... He would've killed you without a seconds thought.' Aodh thought to himself as he tried to process this new information.

'I have no idea what Roman has in mind but if he is looking for help from Adam it's not going to be sunshine and puppies. This isn't good news to her. Looks like I might have to get to Vale sooner than expected after hearing this. Well might as well make myself known. Let's see if I can get anymore information out of these idiots.'

Aodh then made his move as he drew Solas and activated it's tanto mode. Using the lightning dust within his weapon the blade can act somewhat as a taser. With the sound of lightning crackling Aodh he jumped over the crate and hit two of the grunts with the blunt end of the tanto shocking them as they fell out cold.

The third member turned around and found the other two members knocked out cold with a man standing over them. "Hey, The name's Aodh Branwen. We need to talk for a moment." Aodh coldly spoke to the member of the White Fang as he slowly walked towards him. He activated his semblance as he did so revealing his crimson red eyes.

"No... Get away from me!" The White Fang member shouted out as he tried to turn and run away but he found Aodh standing behind him. "How did you?" He never got answer as he as quickly knocked out with the same method used on the other two members.

Aodh them put two of the bodies over his shoulders and dragged the third into the forest. Having tied them up to a tree he slapped their faces to wake them up. "Come on, rise and shine, up and at em."

Each of the member groan as they woke up. "Well now that's class is in session let's have a pop quiz. First question is what are you doing here?" The three member remained silent.

"Silent types ehh. No worries I'll fix that in a moment." Aodh smiled as he reactivated Solas' lightning dust. He then pulled out some water and sprayed some over the three member's laps.

"Now what are you doing here?" Aodh asked again but this time he poked one of the members. The shock didn't cause him to scream out in pain but it did cause him to jerk about as he was shocked. Once more they remained silent.

"No answer again huh. Let's try a different question. Who is leading this operation?" Aodh this time poked another member and he grunted out a response.

"Our general was here yesterday but he pulled out to go to an operation outside of Atlas." One of the members responded.

"First question answered. We're making progress but you didn't really answer my question. Who is leading this operation?" Aodh poked the same man again as he was giving him information.

"It was Adam but now it's the Lieutenant! But we're going to be pulling out to Vale soon." This time the one to respond wasn't the member being shocked. It was the member he hadn't shocked yet. "Please just don't shock my brother any more." The member then pleaded with Aodh.

"Fine... I got my answer. Now I'll just have to pay a little visit to the Lieutenant." Aodh then shocked all three of them again but this time he knocked them all out cold. "Now... Stay here."

Slowly Aodh made his way to the cabin. He guessed the leader of the operation would be staying in there. He climbed on top of the roof and made a small cut in the roof and peered inside. The Lieutenant was walking around a table showing a map of the local area.

"So we'll make out way out through this river here. It will take us here just outside of Mistral and from there we'll hijack an airship to Vale taking the equipment with us. Is that clear?" The Lieutenant informed the group of men inside the cabin with the plan of travel to Vale.

"Yes sir!" The other present members answered.

"Then dismissed. I just hope that Torchwich bastard is currently keeping his end of the bargain up."

Aodh listen carefully but noticed a member run into the cabin panting crazy from exhaustion. "Sir we have an issue!"

"What is it?"

"Sir, one of our perimeter scouts picked up three of our guys tied to a tree in the edge of the clearing. One of them said someone called Aodh Branwen has infiltrated our position."

"Aodh's here! Spread out and find the bastard. I want bastard's head!" The Lieutenant barked out the order as they quickly exited the cabin in search of Aodh.

"Well my covers blown. Might as well make myself known." Aodh thought out loud as he focused the lighting dust in his fist and punched the roof of the cabin causing it to collapse.

"Sup." Aodh mockingly saluted the Lieutenant of the White Fang. The Lieutenant growled back in response. Slowly the Lieutenant grabbed his modified chainsaw.

"Y'know I never really got your name. Is it Bob? Imma call you Bob! You okay with that Bob?" Aodh teased the Lieutenant. He knew if his opponent was angry he'd be sloppy and make mistakes.

The Lieutenant bought it hook, line and sinker as he charged at Aodh. With his semblance activated Aodh found it easy work to avoid all of the Lieutenant's slow swings from his heavy modified chainsaw.

"Oh that one was close. I could feel the air rush past my face in that one." Again Aodh trolled the Lieutenant as his swings now became more rushed. Other members of the White fang rushed towards the cabin but Aodh spat a small burst flames towards them. The cabin then started to slowly catch fire.

"We'll both burn in here you mad man!" The Lieutenant shouted at Aodh.

"What's wrong scared of a little flame." Aodh asked with a raised Eyebrow before charging towards the Lieutenant. He picked up the Lieutenant and speared his way through the wooden walls of the cabin by using the Lieutenant's body. Landing hard outside on the ground after being thrust through the cabin walls the Lieutenant groaned in pain.

Aodh then pulled out both Scath and Solasand kept both in there revolver form. Firing round after round Aodh slowly stated to draw out the Lieutenant's aura weakening it with every pull of the trigger.

Upon noticing the Lieutenant's loss of aura Aodh then pierced the Lieutenant's right kneecap with Scath's blade. The Lieutenant lowly groaned it pain.

"Don't worry... I'll still leave you a leg to stand on." Aodh stated to the Lieutenant. However the Lieutenant then noticed a figure standing behind Aodh.

"I leave for Atlas and arrive back here to this surprise " A voice familiar to Aodh and the Lieutenant spoke to the pair.

"ADAM!" Aodh turned to face his former teammate but found Adam had blasted a shell into his gut. With such a close range shot fired at him Aodh's aura was next nothing as his tried to repair the damage cause by the point blank dust shell fired from Adam's shoutgun.

"To my surprise I find a stray tailless cat in my den." Adam then signaled for several members of the White Fang to hold Aodh down. "I believe the old saying is an eye for an eye."

"If it truly was an eye for an eye you'd let me cut your fucking horns off." Aodh growled at Adam as he was held down.

"Well life isn't fair." Adam then picked up his Lieutenant's modified chainsaw and slowly lowered it onto Aodh's right kneecap. Unlike the Lieutenant however Aodh yelled in pain as the chainsaw slowly cut off his leg. With no arua to help protect Aodh the chainsaw slowly and painfully cut through the flesh.

With his right leg now missing his right leg Aodh was struggling to stay awake and not pass out from the pain. But before the final blow on Aodh could be dealt a Nevermore appeared above them.

"Grimm!" The members of the White Fang scattered as the Nevermore picked up Aodh and flew off.

Adam then noticed the lack of bone armor on the Nevermore that was carrying Aodh away. "Saved by your father it seems." Knowing that he would not be able to finish off Aodh today Adam turned to focus on preparing for the White Fang's departure for Vale.

And Cut!

Can it be two chapter's in a row without mention of Driu?

Okay so as this chapter is being posted the poll will be closed to you all and the results will be viewed on my profile. As it stand as i write this it is 8-0 in favor of not having Volume 0 added. As we will be moving straight into Volume 3 once Volume 2 has been finished.

Now before anyone asks, yes Aodh losing a leg was planned and it will tie in with the pairing confirmation in the next chapter. So I hope you'll all look forward to that! So let's get doing with this chapter's Q&A!

1) Do you plan to keep Amber alive or follow what happened in the show? Unfortunately no. The reason for this is because we know next to no information over her and I would like this character to remain cannon rather and creating a more or less OOC.

2) What bad ass song would be Aodh's theme? I was asked this from the first chapter and it honestly took me a while to figure one out for Aodh to be honest. But I've sent with Metalingus by Alter Bridge.

3) What are his feelings towards Raven abandoning Yang does he even consider her family any more? This will be unknown at the moment. Now Aodh will have memories of Raven as he is seven years older than Yang but if you want a straight answer he'll hold the same feelings as Qrow does to Raven's abandonment.

4) If you were to make a new main villain besides Salem who would he based off of (either from a fairy tale villain or a real world historical person) and would you pair him with Cinder or Emerald or both? If I was to pick a villain from a fairy tale i'd go with a classic and go with Captain James Hook. The reason being you could do a lot with this in RWBY and wouldn't have to change much of his background either. An example, let's say instead of Peter Pan cutting off Hook's hand it was someone else who is part of the RWBYverse and instead of the Croc it was feed to a Grimm. But another one could be Lady Tremaine who is Cinderella's evil stepmother. And since Cinder is based off of Cinderella it could also work out that way as well.

5) Isn't Aodh's semblance a little OP? Well it is to an extent. However it does have its flaws. For example his eyes allow his to react to any danger but if he cannot see an attack it will hit him. Plus for bullets being shot at him at a distance he could dodge them but close range it would near impossible for him to dodge it in time.

So that's all for this chapter folks. If you have a question do feel free to post a review or PM myself. If I don't answer your question on next chapter's Q&A I will try to reply via PM. Thank you for reading this chapter. I hope you've all enjoyed it. Till next time!
