Hey guys! Welcome to the next chapter of Team RCWY. I hope you guys enjoyed the last chapter because it was fun write! If you guys PM the references then you can request something be put into the story. So PM me :) Okay, now for the reviews

rwbyfan5:It's going great! Cyang looks like an okay ship*.

*He typed while madly singing along to "I Ship It" by Not Literally

Thats actually more like a joke than an actual pairing, I don't know if there even will be a pairing with Cyan. He could be lone flier like most nerds :P. If you guys feel like he should have a lady friend then please, let me know.

Grimlyn360: Great job so far. I'm loving the interactions and references. Keep it up!

Thanks :), to me those are some of the funnest things to write and I feel like dialogue is one of my strong suits.

King of the lion: love the chapter just because of the TF2 moment made me laugh my butt off

keep up the great work

Since the first word of this story, that was one of the moments that I have planned since the beginning, and enjoyed every every second of writing it. I hope it pleased you just as much as it pleased me :)

Blake Tourdner: I love this also please for the sale of my sanity Have Axtons Turret for the hilarity of Verdant putting a voice with it I'm glad I found this story keep up the good work.

Hmm… Maybe. But I don't want Cyan to seem overpowered so I plan on sticking to the two different types of turrets for now. In the future when everyone gets stronger then maybe Cyan will be due for an upgrade. And thank you, I really enjoy seeing that people enjoy my work.

DarkElucidator: You kinda forgot the more famous "I solve practical problems" line, or was that intentional? Yeah, it's an addiction. To gaming.

Anyway, awesome chap, love the references!

Fixed it. I cant believe I forgot that D: You may hit me now… and I'm not sure if I follow the addiction thing. If you're talking about me then, yes. Me gusta mucho. Sometimes I get sidetracked from writing by Smash Bros for the 3DS. My Ness is good ;).

Bombproofcargo: Great chapter. Will there be any romance, or just hints of it?

I'm not too sure yet. :/ For right now just hints but later on maybe…?

MarronMario: So many References! I love it! Ok Verdant is my new favorite OC, ever, no exceptions.

Thanks :) and She is really fun to write, I think the banter and between her and Cyan is on of my strongest points.

sonic123456a: so answer my question your OC changed the timeline so much Blake is practically gone or shes just on another team?

Blake still exists is all I'm going to tell you. ;P

Maya I. Hendricks: Gamer-senpai. Gamer-senpai. You must continue this story, or this kouhai will be very sad. Your doing a great job so far in my opinion. Keep it up Gamer-senpai.

Thanks :) I always like hearing that people like my work, It makes me feel more inspired to write chapters!

Anyways, heres the next chapter.

Excerpt from the journal of Cyan Novak

This could school is crazy at the best of times. You have any idea how hard it is to find a place to just sit alone for awhile. Especially with an A.I. stuck in your head, you would be surprised at how gabby she can be. At least Weiss is surprisingly easy to deal with, maybe its just Ruby that antagonizes her, clashing personalities and all. I seriously need to build a dock for Verdant so that I can think without her comments. One of the first things that I'm going to do when we get to the dorm, assuming that hasn't changed either.

End of excerpt

"Don't stand so close to me! We are partners, not friends."

"Sorry…"

The two had only been walking for ten minutes since they left the clearing, Weiss still infuriated by something that Ruby had done apparently. The white haired heiress was stomping throught the forest like a kid in a tantrum. With Cyan trailing farther behind.

¨This is not cool. Why didn't we decide to travel back with Yang and Ruby again?¨

Weiss Schnee rolled her eyes at the complaint. The two had been traveling back toward the cliff that they had been flicked off of earlier. The heiress sighed as she answered the question. "Because you and I are partners for the next four years here. We need to 'bond'." She stopped suddenly to face Cyan. "Let's make a deal. I'll ask you question then you ask me a question as we walk. Okay? It will make the trip go faster."

This could be a good way to learn more about Weiss that isn't explained in the show.

Yeah, but I still barely know her. Plus I have a hard time talking to pretty woman.

Your cowardice never ceases to amaze me, first taking advantage of the view Yang gave you and then having a hard time talking to Weiss? They have a term for that you know, it's called a pu-

And I'm going to stop you right there.

"Sure, that sounds great." Weiss flashed a rare smile, which caused the engineer to go blush slightly. The duo continued walking as Weiss asked the first question, "So lets start with something simple, what are your hobbies?" The male hesitated then answered quietly.

"Uh, well, Engineering… Reading a good fantasy book...Chess… Video games. Stuff like that. You?"

You're kicking butt, casanova!

Shut it!

"Well I like dancing and singing a lot. Fighting some Grimm is also a good way to relax in the afternoon. I read mostly historical fiction, My father did teach me how to play Chess maybe we will have to play one another sometime. As for video games, I've never played them." The heiress had seemed to calm down some and was almost… friendly. After a few minutes of silence Cyan spoke up. "Are you more of an extrovert or an introvert?"

Why the hell are you asking that?

I-it was the first thing that came to mind. I thought it might be good if she is one of those people that need space.

The engineer could almost hear Verdant smacking her face with her palm. Weiss' eyebrows furrowed at the question before she answered, "I guess more of an extrovert, I-I don't like being alone, really." The heiress voice tapered off, a sort of sad look shone in her light blue eyes.

Cyan walked besides the heiress feeling awkward, "Well, I, uh, am sorry if i brought up bad memories…" The heiress shook her head and then forced a small smile, "It's ok. What about yourself?"

"I like to keep to myself more than anything, I usually fine with one on one conversations, but if you add any more than that then it gets kinda uncomfortable for me." The white haired teen nodded, she seemed to have recovered from her earlier sadness. More awkward silence hung in the air.

Let me talk to her.

What? I got the impression that all you wanted to do was annoy me.

Harsh, Novak. Harsh. Just hold up your Omni-Tool.

Can't it wait till we get back to our dorm?

What's more private then-

Suddenly a high pitched scream filled the two teens ears. The shorter one instantly drew her rapier and began scouting for enemies. "C'mon Cyan, some girl is in trouble." The two darted off in the direction of the cry, only to be cut off by a Death Stalker.

Well this could be a problem.

The Grimm swang its claw in an arc, Weiss jumped over it while Cyan was nailed in the gut and went flying. The heiress targeted the creatures eyes and froze the beast. The Deathstalker wailed, struggling to take off the ice attached to it's face.

Weiss used the creatures flailing to her advantage and swung Myrtenaster at the beast legs, severing two of the appendages. The Death Stalker cried out again and swung its tail angrily. The white haired teen barely managed to throw a glyph up to protect her self before the stinger made contact, breaking through the symbol, through her aura and finally hitting Weiss in the left shoulder, breaking the bone.

"AHHH!" The girl dropped her sword and dropped to her knees, tears sprang to the corner of her eyes from the pain. The hollow red eyes of the grim betrayed no emotion as the stinger flashed forward again, intent on ending the young Schnee's life.

A group of rockets flew in out of nowhere and nailed the tail perfectly ripping half on the insect-like Grimm's tail off. It cried out in anguish, rearing up on it's back legs. The Death Stalker's stump of a tail flailing madly. A hail of bullets followed the rocket, not causing much damage but pushing the Grimm away from the injured Weiss.

"WEISS!"

Cyan sprinted to the heiress' aid grabbing Myrtenaster in one hand and Weiss' non-broken arm and the other and began pulling her away from immediate danger. The now furious beast roared loudly as it began a slow push forward using it's claws as a shield from the bullets and rockets a Level 3 Tripod Turret shot.

The heiress hissed in pain, as the engineer set her down a good fifty yards from the crazed Death Stalker. He immediately pulled out a Dispenser and began building it up. "What is that?" was all the injured girl could get out through grit teeth. "It's a Dispenser, it's what medical engineers use to heal people on the field."

As soon as the machine was finished auto-building, it began dispensing a condensed healing Dust through the air. The dust began numbing Weiss' arm and jump-started the healing process. "Thanks…" Cyan only grinned cheekily as he stood up, Jet Boots flaring out with plasma as he sprinted rapidly back towards the beast with the boots assists .

And you didn't think it would work.

Never said it wouldn't work. Said you might fling yourself into a tree. Good to know your semi-competent.

...Funny.

Alright, It's blind in one eye from Weiss' attack and two of its legs are gone. The stinger is also out of play so you don't need to worry about that.

That group of rockets did some damage if we could get it to rear up again like it did before then the rockets could hit it where it has no armour.

And how are we going to make it do that?

With a little skill, strength, and a whole lot of luck.

… You're gonna get us killed.

Ozpin watched curiously as Cyan began sprinting around the Death Stalker, successfully drawing it's attention away from his injured partner. The engineer had thrown out one of those smaller turrets which caused the Grimm to slow down further under the combine assault of both turrets. The engineer continued to circle the Grimm, trying to find a weak point to exploit.

The headmaster switched the camera to the injured Weiss. The Dispenser had been doing it's job, and the heiress' shattered bone had been nearly completely healed. "I see how he got in now. Medical engineers are a valued commodity."

Glynda looked over from her own monitor watching Ruby and Yang take on a Giant Nevermore. "I'm still concerned with the lack of a background though. How do we know that he isn't a spy for the White Fang?" The professor showed a rare full lipped smile that slowly turned into a grin. The blonde sweat dropped, "P-professor…?" As soon as the smile appeared and vanished just as quickly behind the headmasters coffee mug. "Gylnda, make sure you schedule that meeting as soon as they get back to the Bullhead."

"Sir? Wouldn't it be wise for us to wait till we arrive back at Beacon?"

"No, me and Mr. Novak have much to discuss."

Weiss watched through cold eyes Cyan fighting the Death Stalker, the heiress knew from experience that the male couldn't last much longer. The Grimm had destroyed the Tripod Turret and was now charging at the exhausted engineer. Using his boots, Cyan sprung away from the dangerous beast just time to dodge a heavy pinsir from ending his life.

He needs help. There is no way that I'll have my partner die in OUR FIRST HOUR OF PARTNERSHIP! The heiress raised her uninjured arm and using what little aura she had to cast a trapping glyph on the beasts two pincers. That… will… have.. to… do. Last of her aura spent the heiress to the Schnee Dust Company's world faded to black.

Cyan shot a grateful glance over his shoulder to the unconscious girl and shot forward with his boots towards the evil creature.

What are you doing?!

Improvising.

The engineering dug his foot up underneath the scorpions face and put the Jet Boots on full power picking the dark insect up with jet powered roundhouse kicks, cracking the armour on its face and finally landed a devastating full-powered jet kick with the last of his strength, shattering the boney chitin of its face.

The Death Stalker let out a high pitched squeal. The once terrifying creature was heavily injured, and bleeding to death. Cyan fell on the ground roughly, and coughed up some blood. The engineer's vision turned hazy, he observed the blur of the injured Grimm aproaching him.

I think that hit from earlier might've caused some eternal bleeding. Oh wow, I didn't know that stars came out during the day.

Cyan!

That… Sure was… a good run.

CYAN! Are you really gonna let this Grimm kill you and Weiss?!

The engineer's sight snapped back to clarity as he forced himself to stand up, blood leaking from the corner of his mouth. The Death Stalker glared hatefully at him and snarled through it's broken jaws. Cyan only glared back unfazed as he reached his hand up and threw down a Mobile Turret.

The auto gun wasted no time blasting the giant scorpion in the face with a rocket, which finally killed the beast. The Death Stalker's body hit the ground in a heap and twitched slightly before stopping movement all together.

Cyan you need to stay awake!

The engineer walked slowly over to where Weiss was lying unconscious next to the Dispenser. It seemed like her shoulder had fully healed during the battle. As Cyan reached the Dispenser his knees gave out. The male hit the ground hard and coughed up some more blood, but he could feel the Dispenser healing him.

I seriously love this thing.

You still need to stay awake though.

I can't make any promises.

I'll kick you in the tw-.

Verdant, do we need to have a talk about language.

No…

"Cyan…?!"

Weiss was sitting up eyes wide, taking in the blood stained jacket and the blood running down the engineer's mouth. Cyan only flashed a small smile and waved before flinching from pain. "Y-your bleeding. Your aura… Wait, you don't have an aura." The white haired heiress tried to stand, but stumbled and fell roughly to the ground still drained from her rapid healing from her injury. She grasped weakly at he still sore shoulder, murmuring curse words under her breath.

The engineer scooted over slightly and patted the ground near him, but the motion cause him to hack up even more blood, much to the heiress alarm. "Idiot! You have no aura! Why did you charge that Grimm head on?" Cyan smiled softly, "I had to get it away from you. You were injured and it was going to kill you." He looked up at the sky and muttered mostly to himself, "Besides, it's not like I'm that important anyways."

After a few minutes Weiss had gained enough strength, to stumble over to where Cyan sat leaned against the Dispenser, and sat down touching shoulders, surprising the engineer to an extent. The partners sat in silence while their wounds were treated. "Thanks." The male almost didn't hear the soft whisper of his companion. He turned to look at her and chuckled, "I should be the one thanking you, if you hadn't of used those trapping runes on the Death Stalker that could've ended very badly. So thanks."

Weiss laughed as well, and Cyan saw the first genuine smile that he had ever gotten from the heiress. "If you hadn't of blow the tail of it, then I wouldn't be here now." The engineer held out his hand for a fist bump, "To the best partnership in Beacon." Weiss smirked as she returned the fist bump. The two sat in a comfortable silence for only a few minutes before they heard a familiar voice.

"I swear I heard the sound of Rockets coming from over here, Yang."

"Are you sure, Ruby?"

"I'm absolutely positive, look; here are some casings on the- Woah! Look at that dead Death Stalker!"

Weiss and Cyan scanned the horizon for where the two sisters might be but couldn't pinpoint it. The voices got louder as the pair undoubtedly step closer to dead Grimm.

"This thing got mangled up pretty bad... "

"Look over there! Is that Cyan and Weiss?"

"What are they doing?"

Out of nowhere popped in Ruby with a flurry of rose petals and smile, which faded when she saw the amount of blood present on Cyan's jacket and mouth.

"OhmygodCyanwhathappened?Areyouok?"

The two teammates just looked at the crimsonette. Ruby kneeled down and put a hand on the engineer's ribs, which caused him to yelp in pain. "Ruby! Stop! I'm pretty sure I broke my ribs." The scythe wielder recoiled and began apologizing profusely. In the mean time Yang walked up with a curious expression on her face which quickly turned to shock when she saw her friend's face.

"Cyan!"

Cyan only grinned half heartedly and shifted to look at Weiss. The heiress' face was unreadable. "We had a run in with that Death Stalker over there. Me and Weiss took it down but it nearly killed us."

Ruby stopped to look at them eyebrow raised, "You two killed that yourselves? That must've been hard." Weiss snorted and checked her shoulder, a ugly purple bruise over a good portion of her left shoulder and partially down the arm. The heiress stood up and picked up her blade with her good arm, and put it back in its sheath.

Against the male's better judgement, he tapped the Dispenser, returning it to a line of data stored in his Omni-Tool. Then stood up slowly, almost falling but was caught by Weiss and Yang. "Thank you."

"No prob."

"You're my partner, if you look bad, I look bad and I won't tolerate that."

You have two women on each arm! You're goddamned studmuffin.

I'm not going to even dignify that with a response.

"When we get back to the school. I'm unlocking your aura." Weiss added before anyone could say anything ,"If it wasn't for your stupid healing machine, you would be dead from internal bleeding. So I won't hear any of it." The engineer nodded quietly before letting go off both women and trying to walk away on his own. Unknown, to the girls, his face was a bright red.

They were both just touching you, not even inappropriately, and you cower?! Someone call the testosterone police because I think your man card just expired.

What? We don't eve-

Cyan tripped over a rock and nearly became intimately acquainted with the ground when someone caught him and threw his arm over their shoulder. He looked over, surprised to see that it was Weiss again. "Why are-" "Shut up" The heiress snapped at him, "We are partners, partners help each other out. That's how it works." She stepped forward, supporting the flabbergasted engineer, in the direction of the cliffs. Her gaze took a softer, kinder look as she turned slightly to face him and whispered so Yang and Ruby couldn't hear, "You are important."

Excerpt from the journal of Ruby Rose

Cyan and Weiss got hurt pretty badly today. Cyan broke a few ribs and could've died very easily if it hadn't been for the disp-whatchamacallit that heals people. Afterwards he seemed kind of off and Yang was really worried about him. Weiss broke her shoulder, but the whatzitcalled fixed it up enough for it only to be sore. I still worry about them though. Mostly Cyan though, because Weiss is a meanie! I think she had the right idea though, If he doesn't get his aura unlocked he might die…

End of excerpt
