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.

(City of Vale, Prison, 8:20pmm Saturday.)

Blake sat in her cell, the officers that arrested her thankfully didn't know she was a Faunus, for as much good as it did her.

"Your older than I thought, you're in your 20s at least… I really need to take better age guesses."

Blake looked up to see the gunslinger and the swordswoman from the freighter walk into the room. The Gunslinger leaned against the wall as the girl looked directly at her.

"Weak little underling."

The swordswoman hissed as the boy turned to her.

"Raven, play nice. We're here to chat with her, not insult her…. Considering that the guys on the ship were Junior's thugs and White Fang soldiers from that terrorist cell of the group… I'm guessing you're a Faunus, Ms.…"

The gunslinger said as he looked at her, Blake didn't see anger or disgust in his eyes, simply confusion and sadness.

"My name's Noir, Summer, our team leader sent us here to chat with you… She and I don't think you're a criminal, are you?"

Noir asked as Blake walked up to the bars.

"No… But the Faunus are being discriminated against, I-…"

Blake started to say before Noir cut her off by nodding and looked directly at the Faunus.

"I know, I know, the discrimination, the prejudice. It's disgusting, and I don't support it at all, you guys just want respect and to be treated… But attacking innocent people, criminal activities, they won't get you that…. And you aren't a bad guy, you said so yourself, Blake."

Noir said as Blake's eyes widened as she opened her mouth to ask how she knew her name before Noir held up his hand.

"Before you ask, I heard Adam… Who I'm assuming is the leader of the militant White Fang, said your name on the Leviathan. We didn't want you to be tortured… So, we said you were one of Junior's thugs and not a Faunus… Your secret is safe with us."

Noir put in as Blake nodded and leaned against the wall.

"What do you want with me, then?"

Blake asked as Noir walked up till he was face to face with Blake.

"Summer… And our school wants to know anything you can tell us about Junior's plans, the White Fang, whatever you can give us about the bad guys, Blake."

Noir put in as Raven stared at Blake.

"Besides, you will be interrogated and they will find out you are a Faunus if you don't want to talk to us."

Raven hissed as Noir gave her a glare.

"Raven, stop being horrible cop, Blake is already treated bad enough because she isn't 100% Human, I am not going to threaten her just because she won't talk to us."

Noir put in as Summer huffed.

"Why am I then only strong one on this team?"

She asked as Noir looked at her.

"You being strong is treating everyone who can't defeat you like trash, it isn't helping…"

Noir put in as Raven huffed in annoyance and turned away as Noir looked back at Blake.

"You're have to forgive Raven; her kindness only extends to those who can fight her and win…" Noir started to say as he cleared his throat.

"Something that should die out because she's not making any friends that way and none of her teammates allow nor care for it!"

Noir finished, glaring at Raven who walked to the other side of the room as Noir turned back to Blake.

"What do we need to give or bargain with you for to get you to tell us about Junior and the White Fang… That is within reason and the authority of a group of 17-year old huntsmen that have one a week or two worth of personal training…."

Noir said, weakly chuckling as Blake looked at him before turning away.

"Listen closely than…."

Blake whispered as she turned back.

(Beacon, Ozpin's office, 1 hour later.)

Summer and Qrow sat in their seats as the elevator dinged and Noir, Raven and Glynda stepped out of the lift as Ozpin lifted his head.

"Did our guest say anything to you, Mr. Tama?"

Ozpin asked as Noir walked until he was behind Summer's chair before leaning against it.

"She told us that the White Fang and Junior and his organization are working together but their alliance isn't going smoothly because of our interference… She also told us that their planning something big between the both of them for Vale… She's mentioned some other stuff on a scroll she gave us, but not much else."

Noir put in as Summer spoke up.

"What could Junior want a freighter's worth of dust for, anyways? Plus the White Fang becoming terrorists? It doesn't add up, their discriminated against, but military style raids on cargo ships and trains? That isn't their style."

Summer put in as Ozpin calmly sipped his coffee before continuing to speak.

"There are many secrets we must counter, Ms. Rose, this just happens to be a few of them."

Ozpin put in as Glynda crossed over to stand beside the headmaster.

"Perhaps it is better to counterattack before Junior or the White Fang regroup… Or in this case, secure Vale."

Ms. Goodwitch put in as Ozpin turned to the window before speaking.

"I agree. Ms. Rose, since you and team STRQ have proven themselves to be able to handle the challenges Ms. Goodwitch did not originally believe you to be up to, I have a mission that requires you and team STRQ to handle."

Ozpin put in as Summer jumped into the air as if lightning had struck her.

"Summer Rose and team STRQ reporting for duty, Mr. Ozpin, sir!"

Summer put in as Noir laughed at how adorable his friend looked.

"There are devices we put up in Emerald forest to stop the Grimm from attacking Beacon… But they've gone down recently."

Ozpin explained as Summer and Noir shared looks.

"You think Junior or the White Fang might be involved?"

Noir asked as Ozpin nodded.

"It's possible but right now I want to see them repaired before any Grimm pose a threat to us."

Ozpin put in as Summer and Noir shared a look.

"Why do you need us?"

Noir asked as Ozpin walked over to his desk and looked Summer.

"Because while it isn't official, I don't believe that this was the Grimm…. Do you want the mission, Ms. Rose?"

Ozpin asked as Noir, Summer, Qrow and Raven grinned, that was all Ozpin needed for an answer.
