Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Black and White Roses. Enjoy the 1100-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth do.

(Beacon academy, Emerald Forest.)

Noir fired Siva Darkness in its revolver form to slow his fall as he used his free hand to catch a tree branch and swing himself to the ground as he leapt and rolled as he hit the ground.

"Ok, find Summer, get the relics and become a team." Noir said as he walked through the forest.

'If I don't run into Summer, who could be my partner? Raven? No, that girl is as arrogant as Junior. Flax? He's cool, but I don't know much about his fighting skills. Qrow? He isn't as bad, but I doubt I could get used to being called kid.'

Noir thought as he looked up to see Summer fire Winter Thorn before cutting through a tree and landing in the branches.

"Now that's style." Noir smiled as he started walking towards that direction.

"Ok, now to find Summer and get the re-…" He was cut off as Qrow hopped down from a tree before waving at him.

"Sup, kid? Guess we're partners." Noir facepalmed.

"Oh, please kill me now." Noir said as he walked past the huntsmen.

"What? Expecting to get that cloaked girl that you and her seem to be attached at the hip?"

Noir resisted the urge to punch the teen that was his same age as they walked through the forest.

"No, it's because I know who Summer is and how she fights, I don't know you nor your fighting style, Qrow." Qrow caught up to Noir as he waved Siva Darkness at the bushes.

"You really need to lighten up, man." Noir turned to face him.

"I am lightened up, I like to crack jokes and take it easy…. But considering you like to call me 'kid'. And your sister acting like she runs the world, I'm kind of annoyed, Qrow."

"You know Raven is… She's not so bad when you get to know her." Noir rolled his eyes.

"Uh huh. Yeah, considering she insulted me and Summer for not being 'strong', you're forgive me if I don't seem ready to agree on that." Qrow rolled his eyes before speaking up again.

"You think Summer is going to bump into her?" Noir shrugged.

"If they do, I'm pretty sure we'd be able to find Summer by the sounds of her angry rant at Raven." He looked at Qrow's back to see a greatsword that seemed like it was double the size of Qrow and Noir.

"Should I even ask why your sword is twice the size of a regular sword?"

Qrow laughed.

"Everyone has a different weapon; my weapon just happens to stand out in a more…. Unique way." Noir rolled his eyes.

"Ok, let's go find that relic and get this quest over with." Noir said as Qrow sped off before he leapt into the tree branches.

"Damn it, Qrow!" Noir hissed as he heard growling before aiming Siva Darkness at the bushes.

"Lovely, Grimm are drawn to negative emotion and I'm bush being annoyed that my partner ran off." Noir shook his head before aiming his revolver at the bushes as more eyes poked out of the bushes.

"Oh, you have got to be kidding me!" Noir said as he transformed Siva Darkness into its sword form and prepared for battle with whatever crawled out of the bushes.

(Emerald Forest, treetops.)

Qrow watched as 2 dozen or so eyes seemed to stare at Noir as the huntsman in training prepared to kill whatever crawled out of the bushes as Noir turned and cut a single Beowolf in half as it charged only for it to be replaced by two more which slashed at Noir only for him to kick off one.

'Kids got some skill.'

Qrow thought as Noir fired Siva Darkness's revolver function in midair before bringing his blade down and slicing through the Grimm as the other slashed at him only for Noir to parry its slashes before leaning back and pivoting as he fired to make his slash have more power as he cut the Beowolf's head off.

"Not bad, kid! You may just become a huntsman sooner then you thought." Qrow yelled from the treetops as the teen stared at him.

"You know, it'd be a lot easier if you helped me with these Beowolves running around!" Noir yelled as the two teens heard growling before 2 dozen Beowolves leapt out of the bushes as they surrounded the young huntsmen.

"You, really have to be kidding me with this."

Noir muttered as Qrow began to think of how best to help his teammate as the wolf like Grimm began to circle Noir.

'Ok, don't panic, it's 2 dozen Beowolves vs one huntsmen with training… And no backup due to Qrow having a laugh at my expense.'

Noir thought before one of the Beowolves was blown in half by a shotgun blast as Noir looked up to see Qrow land besides him.

"What? Get sick of laughing?" Noir asked as he clicked a switch, transforming Siva Darkness into its revolver form as he leveled it at the Beowolves.

"Well, I couldn't let you have all the fun." Noir cracked his neck as he gripped his weapon.

"Let's see if you can keep up." Qrow laughed.

"I've been in a scrap or two, let's do this."

Author notes

Yep, this chapter was… Shorter due to the episode it is based on being 4 minutes. Next chapter will be longer and will foucus on Summer and Raven.

Also, I will be bringing Ruby, Yang, Weiss and Blake into the story but they won't be in the story until later in season 1 for Yang, Weiss and Blake, and season 2 of the timeline for Ruby.

And STRQ won't be the only team in the story if you saw the last chapter. Until later today, Lighting Wolf out!
