Ever since the fight with Ruby and Owain, Blaine and Eliza had been recovering from their injuries and planning their next move (well Blaine was recovering and Eliza was planning to be precise) in a safe house somewhere in Vale, which no one except them know the location of so they were not expecting a knock on the door. Blaine got up to open the door and when he opened it he noticed a hooded man leaning against the door frame.

"Who are you?" Blaine asked sharply. The hooded man smiled, a creepy wide smile before laughing maniacally. This freaked Blaine out and he was about to slam the door before the hooded man spoke in a strangely captivating voice "Surely you remember me Blaine, the Shadow's fail safe plan."

Blaine silently cursed before moving aside to let the hooded man into the house and took him into the kitchen where Eliza was meticulously studying notes she had taken on Owain and Ruby's movements (she didn't need Ruby but how she wanted to hurt her). When Eliza looked up she noticed Blaine with a hooded figure. "Who's this" Eliza asked and the hooded figure lowered his hood to reveal a bald head with a face with plenty of scars and dark red eyes and when Eliza noticed his face she also silently cursed.

"How did you find us Dracul?" Eliza asked her voice filled with a mixture of fear and hatred. Dracul once again laughed his manically laugh "You think the leader wasn't keeping tabs on you, he noticed her monumental failure and sent me to clean things up, so from now on I'm in charge, you got it?" Dracul said and when he got no response he quickly brandished his weapon, a pair of hand held knives that curved sharply, upon seeing these Eliza and Blaine were quick to agree with Dracul.

"Excellent, so what can you tell me about this Owain character and skip his life story, i was present the day we killed his brother, I'm more interested in his fighting ability and any allies he has managed to obtain." Dracul said in a commanding but yet soft tone. Eliza quickly responded "He has talent in combat but we broke his main weapon the last time we met, but he has managed to ally himself with a skilled fighter as well as her team, I'm not sure about his own team as we have never seen them." Dracul thought about this for a while before saying "Well we need to see what his team are capable of, don't we?"


Owain spent a lot of time in the training room trying to train with his new weapons that he was not yet fully comfortable with, the sword would come easily while the spear would take time to perfect but Owain was nothing if not a perfectionist. It was during one of these training sessions that the rest of his team entered the room while Owain was swinging his spear at a practice dummy and successfully managed to impale it's chest.

Lykaon spoke loudly "Owain we have a meeting with Ozpin and team RWBY on the cliffs in twenty minutes, we need to go". Owain cursed, how had he forgotten about the meeting "Well we might as well get going then" Owain said as he sheathed his sword and the spear and led his team to Ozpin's office. When he entered the room he noticed team RWBY was already there.

"Ah team OPAL, now you're here we can begin, I need all of you to complete a mission for me as you are the two best teams here." Ozpin said "I need you to clear out a large concentration of grimm, you should be warned there will be all kinds of grimm not just the usual beowolfs and ursas you fight, there will be deathstalkers and nevermores as well, you do not have to accept this mission". Team RWBY readily accepted the mission while Owain decided to think about this before deciding and asked Lykaon for advice, a regular occurrence as Lykaon had proven himself to be extremely wise and clear headed. So Owain and Lykaon headed out into the hallway

"What do you think?" Owain asked.

"Well, I'd say go for no other reason than if what Ozpin says is true than even team RWBY will not be able to survive that." Lykaon said.

Owain sighed before heading back into the office "We're in" he said and Ozpin smiled and Ruby let out a small squeal of delight only to be promptly called a dolt by Weiss.


After a brief run through of what there task would actually entail, an hour later all of teams RWBY and OPAL were back in their dorms except for Ruby and Owain who had decided to go and get some dinner and so for safety reasons decided to ask Paris and Lykaon to come as well which they happily accepted and soon all four were at La Belle Rose, a fact which made Lykaon unusually giddy. They were quickly seated and ordered their drinks, a strawberry milkshake for Ruby, a water for Paris, a beer for Owain and a whiskey for Lykaon. After they received their drinks they ordered food, Paris and Lykaon ordering the exact same as last time whereas Owain ordered the surf and turf and Ruby ordered the salmon risotto. After eating and paying the bill they exited the building only to be greeted by Blaine, Eliza and a mysterious hooded figure that Owain did not know but remembered vaguely from the night his brother was killed. Owain withdrew his spear, Paris withdrew Endbringer and Lykaon withdrew Last Laugh but Ruby had left crescent rose back at beacon so stayed behind Owain.

Blaine and Eliza withdrew their weapons and the hooded figure lowered his hood and pointed straight at Owain, "I'm here for him, the rest of you, leave now!" he said and Owain recognized the voice as Dracul, the expert assassin. He turned to Lykaon and motioned at Blaine and then to Paris and motioned at Eliza before turning to Ruby and taking Nemesis out and handing it to her. He quickly kissed her forehead "Stay safe" he said before returning his attention to Dracul, who had that maniacal grin on his face. Almost instantaneous the two sides leapt into battle with Ruby on the sidelines. It was not long before Blaine had been incapacitated by Lyakon and Eliza had been severely injured by Paris. Owain on the other hand was being hard pressed by Dracul but was somehow managing to bloke or dodge the attacks with his spear. One attack he spun and swung his spear catching Dracul's cheek and leaving a long gash. Owain was soon joined by Paris and Lykaon and Dracul backed up.

"It won't be long Owain, you'll coming back to Atlas with me, alive or nearly dead, I don't care" and with that Dracul basically vanished leaving Blaine and Eliza who Ruby decided to kick for good measure. The four of them headed back to Beacon and quickly made their way to their dorms and tried to sleep but none found that it came easily.


So Dracul is a fans OC and i really hope I'm doing him justice so far but I will soon be adding another of my OCs into the story.
