Alright. I bet you all thought I had stopped this story... Well think again! The story's break a bit longer for this story than it was meant to but with Volume 5 now under way I've been able to map out my ideas for Volume 4.

But anyway let's not waste any more time and get started on the latest chapter! Enjoy!

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

As Aodh was once more bombarded with questions he tried to calm everyone down. As he looked around he could thankfully still see Ruby with Mercury no where to be seen near her. 'Thank Oum he's not there.' Aodh thought to himself as he turned his attention towards the crowd.

But before he could speak the Colosseum screens shifted once more. This time they flashed only one word. 'CAUTION' Then another voice spoke out. "Alert. Incoming Grimm attack. Threat level: Nine. Please seek shelter in a calm and orderly manner."

Feeling the masses in the Colosseum were about to panic Aodh stood above everyone and shouted out. "Everyone will be fine! I promise you will all be fine!"

But no sooner had Aodh finished saying those words the Colosseum shook. As Aodh looked up he spotted the source a Giant Nevermore had landed as was trying to breach the Colosseum's force field. The Grimm screeched loudly as it continue'd to peck it way into the Colosseum.

Volume 3: Chapter 10: The Battle of Beacon Part 1

As the Giant Nevermore continue'd to attack the barrier above the Colosseum the people inside began to panic. "Oh Oum we aren't gonna make it."

"Help us!"

"What do we do?"

"QUIET!" Aodh shouted out loud getting the attention of the panicking public near him. "You will all be fine. Nothing is going to happen I promise. Now I need you all to get to the exit quickly. There will be huntsmen and Huntresses around the Colosseum that will get you towards a safe area. Once this area is clear we will join you all. But not until the area is cleared of all civilians. Is that understood!?"

Aodh seen the silent response and pointed towards the nearest exit. "Alright now make your way towards the exits and get into a transport ASAP!"

Quickly the large group dispersed into the exits. With the Colosseum stands nearly empty the Giant Nevermore broke through and made it's way directly towards Pyrrha. Aodh was about to jump down but seen Ruby beat him to it.

With in seconds the rest of the Beacon Students jumped down to assist Ruby in taking down the large winged Grimm. But the next wave of Grimm arrived on the Colosseum's roof. Griffons.

(Ruby)

"Griffons." Ren Stated

"Anybody got a plan of attack?" Neptune asked the group.

"Sun. I need to use your Scroll."

Sun used his tail to threw his Scroll towards Ruby who caught it. Using the scroll she summoned her locker revealing Crescent Rose inside. However, Ruby is stopped when a Griffon lands on her locker.

Ruby jumped backwards not expecting the sudden appearance of the Grimm. But The Grimm was then stabbed with a tanto blade with a white handle. Ruby looked at the blade having near instantly recognizing it. "Solas..."

Ruby was speechless as a figure suddenly appeared and grabbed hold of the blade and fired a lightning round killing the Griffon. The figure in question was wearing a Grey Atlas Military Uniform. Ruby watched as he took off his helmet revealing her dead cousin Aodh.

Tears began to swell up in Ruby's eyes as she rushed towards Aodh. "AODH!" Ruby hugged him tightly hopping that this wasn't a dream. That he really was in front of her alive.

Aodh knew she was crying as Ruby tightly hugged him. "Hey squirt." Aodh softly spoke as he tried to comfort her by patted the top of her head.

"What happened? You are dead..." Ruby asked with tears still in her eyes.

"I'll explain everything later to you I promise. But first I need you and the rest of you students to get out of here."

"I agree with Mr. Branwen. I think it would be best for you to leave." Professor Port stated once he arrived with Dr. Oobleck.

"But we did a." Ruby tired to argue but was cut off by Dr. Oobleck.

"Miss Rose! This day will surely go down in Remnant's history. I'd prefer it if my students could live to tell about it."

"The whole of Vale and Beacon needs help Ruby. You can't waste any more time here. Others need the help of you huntsmen and huntresses... Now get going." Aodh stated to Ruby and the group of students.

The students agreed with the teachers words as they exited the Colosseum's Arena floor. With the students gone the three teachers of Beacon stood back to back as the stadium was surrounded by a horde of flying Grimm.

"Barty! Aodh! One final match, Place your bets!" Professor Port laughed like a manic as he fired randomly at the Grimm flying around them.

(Roman)

As the students left towards the nearest airship the escaped Roman Torchwick felt like a child in a candy store. Around him the airship was in utter chaos as he continue'd to press button after button.

"Hmm... let's see, what does... this button do?" After pressing the button a loud bang was heard causing Roman to laugh like a madman.

"Oh, fun! How about... This one?" With this new button pressed Roman brought his hand up to his ear. But he heard no sound. "Hm. Alright, nothing."

His accomplice Neopolitan arrived on the ships deck still in her Atlesian military disguise as she handed Roman a Scroll. The scroll's screen was showing an image of the Black Queen insignia.

"Oh ho ho! Now this one... This one's gonna be fun." Roman stated as he plugged the device into the airship's console.

One installed the screens turned from light blue to a dark red. Roman then watched the panels and seen that all of Atlesian Knights were now under this devices viral control. "Ha ha ha ha... I feel like a composer and with an audience like this... Well, let's put on one hell of a show!"

But Roman was cut short of his laughter as he heard a loud bang coming from the outside of the ship. "Annoyed he turned to face Neo. "Ugh... Go see what that is."

Neo smirked as she nodded at Roman's command. She quickly left the ships and leaves the control room.

(Aodh)

The three teachers of Beacon had more or less cleared out the Colosseum with only one remaining which was quickly shot down by all three teacher firing their weapons simultaneously. "Well, that deal with that then... What next?" Dr Oobleck asked.

"We'd need to go to Beacon as much as the students can look after themselves i'd rather make sure they make it out of this alive." Aodh stated as he looked at the other two teachers at Beacon.

"Agreed." Both Dr Oobleck and Professor Port nodded as all three left the Colosseum as quickly as they could.

(Cinder)

All across Beacon Academy the students fought both the Grimm and the now turned Atlas Knights. Watching the battle take part below was Cinder, Emerald and Mercury who was recording everything on his scroll.

"Beautiful isn't it." Cinder commented with a smug look on her face.

"It's almost sad." Emerald spoke with a sad look on her face.

"It's horrendous." Cinder smiled as she turned towards Mercury. "Focus on the Atlesian Knights."

"Oh, I'm getting all of it." Mercury chuckled as he continue'd recording.

"Good. Continue the broadcast until the end." Suddenly there was a tremor nearly causing all three of them to fall. "And do not miss what happens next."

(Aodh)

Having just landed at the front of Beacon Academy Aodh stumbled as the ground shook. "What the hell was that?" Aodh asked out loud but before anyone could answer a deafening roar was heard.

Aodh as well as the other huntsmen and huntresses looked to see a giant Grimm Dragon fly towards Vale and Beacon. "Well... Fuck."

(Ruby)

Meanwhile Ruby watched the Dragon fly past the Atlesian Airship she had landed on but her attention was brough towards a Griffon that had landed in front of her.

Taking care of the Grimm quickly she heard the sound of a camera clicking. She looked around to find Neopolitan smiling at her with a scroll in her hand.

Inside the control room Roman's scroll vibrated. He looked at it to find a message sent from Neo. The messgae was a photo of Ruby with the caption 'Guess Who?'

Roman groaned in annoyance as he picked up his cane. "Oh, you can not be serious!"

Back on top of the airship ruby tired her best to hit Neo. But no matter what she done the smaller girl would either somersault over or simply duck underneath it. Having no other option left to her Ruby opened fire with Crescent Rose only for Neo to shatter in an illusion.

Once Neo's illusion was revealed Roman appeared and fired a a near point blank shot at Ruby. The force blew Ruby back as she had to stab the airship to regain her foothold thanks to the surrounding gale force winds.

"Little Red, little Red, you are just determined to be the hero of Vale, aren'tcha?" Roman asked Ruby as she slowly got back to her feet.

"What are you doing!? Without these ships, the Grimm will destroy everything!" A confused Ruby asked but Roman quickly responded back.

"That's the plan!" Roman quickly followed up his answer by attacking Ruby but his cane was swatted away causing him to stumble slightly. However Neo kicked Ruby's left cheek and sent her tumbling back. Another swift kick nearly sent Ruby over the edge of the Airship.

"But why!? What do you get out of it!?" Ruby asked not understanding why Roman was helping attack innocent people.

"You're asking the wrong questions, Red! It's not what I have to gain, it's that I can't afford to lose!" Using his cane like a golf club Roman upper-cutted Ruby send her flying over the edge of the airship. However Ruby was able to stab the side of the airship and held on. Roman and Neo walked over to the edge and looked down at the young huntress.

"I may be a gambling man, but even I know that there are some bets you just don't take." Roman stated as he nodded towards Neo. The petite girl then extended a blade from her umbrella and pointed it at Ruby. "Like it or not, the people that hired me are going to change the world! You can't stop 'em, I can't stop 'em and neither could Aodh!"

As Roman continue'd Ruby noticed the button to open Neo's umbrella "You know the old saying, "If you can't beat 'em.."

Suddenly, Ruby reached out towards Neo's Umbrella and opened it causing Neo to fly off the airship, leaving her at the mercy of the Grimm roaming the skies and the raging winds.

"NEO!" Roman shouted out before being knocked back as Ruby managed to get back onto the top of the airship but without Crescent Rose.

"I don't care what you say! We will stop them and I will stop you! BET ON THAT!" A determined Ruby stated back at Roman before she used her semblance and charged at him.

Roman quickly gripped his cane with both hands and fired off a shot. Quickly catches the projectile with the hook end and hurls it at Ruby, knocking her away. He followed up by smacking her with the hook, ramming the weapon in her stomach. With Ruby stunned her fired another shot, sending her on her back once more.

"You got spirit, Red... Just like Aodh. But this is the real world!" Roman then began to violently kick Ruby as she lied on the top of the airship. "The real world is cold! The real world doesn't care about spirit! You wanna be a hero!? Then play the part and die like every other Huntsman in history! JUST LIKE AODH!"

Roman sighed as he prepared to deliver the final blow to the downed Ruby. "As for me, I'll do what I do best: lie, steal, cheat, and SURVIVE!" But just as Roman was about to deliver an overhead swing, a Griffon suddenly appears from the sky above and swiftly swallows him whole.

The Griffon then roared which sent Ruby backwards before it charged towards the young huntress. Ruby kicked the side of the Grimm's head sending it through the hull and causing an explosion. With the Airship under heavy damage it started to lose attitude and fall towards the ground. Rushing to get off the Airship Ruby grabbed Crescent Rose and leaped off the falling airship. She fired off several rounds towards the ground in order to try a cushion her fall.

(Aodh)

"Blake!" Aodh heard a familiar voice shouted out. He turned around to find Yang "Get away from her!" Aodh couldn't see who Yang was looking at but she suddenly her body began shrouded in flames as she charged into the Dinning hall.

"Yang Wait!" Aodh shouted out as he rushed towards the window she jumped through. But he stopped in horror from what he seen next.

He could clear she Yang lying limp face down on the ground. The lower half of her right arm separated from the rest of her body. And standing over her was Adam Taurus.

He soon became overwhelmed with rage as he slowly began to weep a small line of blood from his eyes. "YANG!"

And Cut!

Been a while since I last posted on this story lol. Worked out my plans for Volume 4 so there should be a few more recent updates to this story although I have been busy in work for the last few weeks so I won;t be able to update regularly as much as I would like to do.

But anyway it's been a while so here are last chapter's Q&A!

1) Does Aodh know that Blake is the daughter of the former high leader of the White Fang, whose the leader/chieftain of Menagerie now? To an extent yes. He knows her family is part but he didn't know how high ranking they were since his mother lead the Vale branch. So he would've meet Blake when she was younger but that would've possibly been 10 or more years before cannon.

2) If Aodh fought with Adam again, in Beacon, rescuing both Blake and Yang, would he discover Adam & Blake's past & their relationship a little more, and will Aodh ask both of them about it? Aodh won't discover Blake and Adam's past until later down the line but it will be brought up.

3) What do you think about if Aodh and Winter get married in the future at some point obviously keeping it a secret from Jacques? Honestly if I had free range over continuing the story I would love to have it end with Winter and Aodh marry each other however I prefer to write as close to cannon as possible and see this story as a possible AU but with the events of Volume 4 and now 5 I can't confirm anything like that i'm afraid for the moment

4) Are you going to do Aodh vs Adam and/or vs Roman like instead of Ruby. And if he fights Adam will he hold Adam off until he has to retreat? Well with the events of this chapter I will be going with Aodh vs Adam and it's not going to go as many of you might expect lol.

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
