Mourning and Corrupted love.

After their mission. What remained of Team JNPR returned to base. Their mission was successful, they destroyed the base and there by put a big delay in the Empire's plan. But it did not come without a cost. The team suffered a major loss.

Nora Valkyrie: The cheerful bubbly hammer welding girl of the team and Ren's childhood friend. Had died in action protecting the people she loved.

At least they managed to get her body back. She deserves a proper burial. They entered the base and saw their friends and allies waiting for them. Blake who stood next to Jaina stepped forward.

"You're back! How did it-" She stopped her self when she noticed the body bag "Wh-what happened?" She asked fearing the answer.

Non of Team JNPR spoke as their mandalorian commander sighed before opening the bag just enough so they could see the face of non other than Nora.

At the sight of their dead friend the members of Team RWBY gasped.

"No...!" Weiss said with her hands over her mouth,

"Nora!" Blake said in complete shock.

Yang said nothing and just looked at the body with a mixed expression of both sadness and rage.

"Nora she... died protecting us... and there by helped us complete the mission" Pyrrha managed to get out before a sob escaped her throat.

Luke came in a noticed the situation "I will let your commander take care of the mission report. The rest of you, take the rest of the day of, your successful mission will cause the Empire to pull back and regroup. You have earned the right to relax and mourn your comrade".

"Thank you sir..." Jaune said in a tired tone as they took Nora's body and made their way to the grave yard. Team RWBY went with them.

Luke watched them leave before looking back at the commander "Report!".

"The mission was an success sir! The base is destroyed and with it, alot of the Empire's equipment. That should send them back enough to create some breathing room" The commander said.

"Indeed, but we can't let this go to our head. After this they will be angrier and more dangerous. Rest up and be ready for a new misson, they will not underestimate us next time!" Luke ordered.

"As you wish" The commander said before walking of.

Luke sighed, it looks like the former Beacon students had learned the biggest lesson about war. Not everyone makes it back.

Said students were currently gathered around a fire and watched as Nora's body was burned. Due to the amount of casualties this war was sure to bring, they had to burn the bodies and bury the ashes.

The teams did not protest since they understood the reason. Still watching their friend's body burn was not easy. They still had a hard time beliving what had happened.

"It's... it's not fair!" Jaune said "We promised. We promised that we would make it through this together! And now Nora is dead and the name team JNPR died with her!" Pyrrha hugged him from the side as several sobs came out of his mouth "It's my fault! If only I had been a better leader-".

"Don't you dare blame yourself for this Jaune!" Ren suddenly said, speaking louder than usual making the others look at him in surprise "Nora died doing what she always do. Taking care of her friends! Besides, it was the Empire that killed her, not you! And they will pay for it".

In all the time they had known him, non of them had ever seen Ren this angry before. But he had every right to be angry. His childhood friend had just been killed. Any normal person would be pissed about that.

"He's right!" Yang spoke up "The empire took our home, our friend and my sister! They will not get away with this! We will have justice!".

The others nodded in agreement. Nora's death was more than just a tragedy. It filed them up with even more determination to defeat the Empire. And they will do it. No matter what.

In the empire Main-base a soldier has just reported to Lana that one of their weapon bases had been destroyed. His reward for reporting that, was a force choke and a free trip out a widow and down on the ground bellow.

Lana growled in annoyance. The loss of the base would cause a setback, however it was not even close to causing any real damage to her plans.

Still that didn't make Lana any less irritated. She decided to go to the one person that could relieve her of her anger. She entered Ruby's room only to notice the girl was not there, but then she heard the sound of the shower.

Lana smirked and decided to wait until he lover was done. Whan Ruby was done she came out with only a towel around her body. She almost had a heart attack when she noticed Lana sitting on her bed in only her underwear.

"L-Lana! What are you doing in here?" Ruby asked nervusly.

Lana uncrossed her legs and smirked as Ruby tired to look away with a blush "What? Can't I just spend time with my lover?".

"W-well yeah! But can I get dressed first? And you should do the same!" The young Rose said.

"No!" Lana declared before using the force to rip the towel away from Ruby's body, causing said girl to yelp as she covered herself "No covering! I have not had the best day and I need something to get rid of my frustration!".

"B-but!" Ruby began before Lana grabbed her and threw her on the bed.

Lana spread her legs a proceeded to lick Ruby's woman hood like a starving animal. Ruby moaned loudly at the feeling though Lana was really rough. Just what happened to make Lana so angry?

One thing was for sure. Ruby could not sleep tonight if Anna had anything to say about it. But if it meant making her lover happy she would deal with it.

Ruby was a victim to a corrupted love.

In the republic base Jaina returned to her and Blake's room. After they became a couple, they agreed to share room and bed in order to cherish their time together just in case the war claims one of them.

She found Blake sleeping in their bed. Jaina smiled at that and began to undress herself. Just as she was down to her underwear she heard a sob. She looked at her heart hurt when she noticed that her girlfriend was crying in her sighed as she laid down next to Blake. She knew that Blake was still mourning the loss of her friend. She put her arm around her waist and kissed her cheek. Blake stopped sobbing but she was still crying a little.

Jaina carefully turned Blake around so they could embrace each other. Blake moved into the embrace and finally calmed down. Jaina rubbed her back and finally fell asleep herself.

It had been a rough day for everyone. So they needed this.
