Grimm's New Leader – Chapter 3

Don't Bring Scissors To A Fight

-x-

Chase Young sat on the train that was going to be attacked by the White Fang. With his spies flying over Forever Falls, it would be hard for him to miss anything that happened in the forests that was near his lair. He mostly used them to ensure that he didn't have to worry about any unwanted guests, after all, those years of dealing with Jack Spicer trying to invite himself into his lair, he had always known about Jack Spicer's attempts to try and sneak inside so many times.

It got bad enough that Chase literally had to threaten to kill him just to get the teenager to stop doing it. It worked better than expected, though Spicer still had his fanboy moments unfortunately, which was something Chase supposed he would never be without.

His reptilian eyes caught sight of some movement from the cliffs that the train was passing, Chase pulled out the Eagle Scope and activated it, revealing a telescope that allowed him to see in detail just who was coming down the hill at high speed.

It was a man and a teenaged girl that were sliding down the hill, spraying the red grass behind them as they sped down. From what he could see, the man had spiky red hair, though Chase could just about make out two horns, had a Grimm over the upper part of his face. He was wearing a black trench coat, which appeared to have a white symbol on the left-hand side, black trousers, shoes and shoes.

The girl had long wavy black hair, and unlike her companion, her upper face was visible, revealing she had amber eyes. She wore a black button vest with coattails, a white sleeveless undershirt that exposed her midriff, and a white shorts that had zippers on the front of each leg. Her shorts went far enough to meet her black stockings, which in turn led to her black boots. Both of her arms had black ribbons on them, but only the left arm had a detached sleeve. Chase could just about make out a black scarf around her neck and a black bow on her head.

Chase watched them land on the train and enter it after making an opening. He couldn't help but smirk to himself. It appeared that his spies were right after all, this train was going to be hit by the White Fang as an attempt to hurt the Schnee Dust Company where it hurt the most. Their pockets. He could wait for them to get to him, he had all the time in the world.

It didn't take too long for the White Fang members to come to him, for they were blasted out of a train car by an energy beam. The train car door that was sent flying with them? Chase Young simply reached out and grabbed it easily, before he threw it back at a machine that looked to be a cross between a spider and a humanoid. The appearance of the machine didn't particularly matter, for moments later it was cleanly sliced in half by the car door that Chase had thrown at it, destroying it instantly.

The two White Fang members looked at Chase, the shock on their faces clear as day, as they slowly got to their feet. The teenaged girl looked ready to thank him for the help, but he interrupted her.

"Chase Young, pleased to meet you." If there was a more unorthodox way of making your presence known than introducing yourself on the battlefield, then quite frankly, he didn't know what else to say.

"What do you want?" It was the male Faunas that asked the question, clearly on edge from having taken on the robot that was currently lying in two clean pieces on the train. After all, seeing the robot taken out in just one hit by a man who just happened to be on part of the train when there wasn't supposed to be another Faunas on board, why wouldn't he be suspicious.

"I came here after hearing about plans that the White Fang was going to be attacking this train, and destroying the Schnee Dust Company's Dust, I'm under the impression that you are the White Fang that I've heard so much about." Chase explained himself, as he brought out a bowl and a tin can, which had a dragon imprinted onto it. "Though I came to see for myself whether or not the White Fang would be worth worrying about. So far I've not been left with the best of impressions." He poured what appeared to be green soup into the bowl.

"Blake… get ready to attack him." The male Faunas prepared himself for a charge.

"Adam? Are you sure?" Blake asked, pointing at Chase as he started to drink his soup. "He hardly looks like he's here to cause us trouble. He's only sipping soup."

"It's my special Lao Mang Lone Soup." Chase smirked at Blake and Adam, sipping some more of his soup. "I always have a cup before victory." Chase finished drinking his soup, before he pulled out his own weapon, a Kwan-Dao sword, its blades suddenly expanded outwards to give him more length.

"You were saying, Blake?" Adam couldn't disguise the anger in his voice. To be looked over so easily by someone who hadn't even been bothered to see you in battle, it was truly insulting beyond words could describe as far as he was concerned.

"…" Blake's eyes narrowed as well, while she'd rather not have to cause needless bloodshed, but she knew that if this Chase Young didn't step out of their way, then they may not have any choice but to at least try and knock him out.

Though being able to ensure that Chase Young survived the day when Adam was in a foul mood would be a challenge in itself, there was a reason that she was planning on leaving the White Fang as soon as she could. She just couldn't bear to look at her mentor and only see a monster anymore. It was just too heart-breaking for her to do so.

However, there was something about this Chase Young that just put her on edge, almost like she was just one step away from dying if she didn't watch herself properly in this fight. She charged at Chase, using her speed to try and catch him off guard, but every strike was simply blocked with ease, even with Adam trying to do the same.

Chase Young was effortlessly holding off both Blake Belladonna and Adam Taurus with ease, every strike was blocked and every time he needed to dodge, he covered himself perfectly, almost as if he was predicting their movements. He didn't even try to strike back, almost as if he was content with playing the defender for the battle.

Suddenly, he was on the offensive and they couldn't stop him. Blake suddenly found herself flying back after Chase suddenly kicked her in the face after seemingly flickering from existence and to her right. She slammed into one of the train cars, and pain shot throughout her body at the uncomfortable sensation.

Her vision was blurry, and she could barely make out what was going on. All she knew was that this battle might have been far more difficult than they had expected.

Adam Taurus hated humans with a passion. As far as he was concerned, they never stuck to their words and would always break the promises that they made, regardless of the severity of their actions. What he couldn't deal with was the fact that this human was just playing with him this entire time. He knew that he was stronger than Blake in terms of combat, but that didn't mean that he was a slouch either.

Yet this guy was just making him look like an amateur, the way he controlled the flow of the battle was something else, even with Blake helping him out, Adam was never truly in control of the fight. Now, with Blake currently out of the fight, the sheer gap in their ability was made all the more apparent.

The fact that this Chase Young didn't even look fully human annoyed him as well, it was almost as if they were fighting a Faunas and not a human regardless of how much he dreaded to think that himself.

"I believe that I've seen enough." Suddenly, completely out of the blue, Chase put away his weapon and started to walk away, as if this battle was nothing more than a complete waste of his time. Adam gripped his weapon tightly, the White Fang were planning a revolution, yet this guy just brushed them off like they were nothing?

"Where do you think you're going?!" Adam shouted angrily, only for Chase to turn back to him, just as a crow landed on his shoulder. The crow seemed to whisper something in Chase's ear, which caused a slight widening of the eyes, but it was gone so quickly, that Adam almost felt that he imagined it.

"I've got some business to take care of, as for you, well…" Chase smirked as he held what appeared to be a golden conch shell to his ear. "I'd be more concerned with what you're partner's doing." With those final words, Chase Young proceeded to fly away from the train, once again leaving Adam wondering just what the hell was going on. The bull Faunus shook his head and turned around, only to see his partner, Blake standing at the train car connection, her blade ready to cut the connection. Adam's eyes widened behind his mask as he realised just what she was able to do, his hand outstretched in an attempt to stop her.

"Goodbye." Yet with that word, she cut through the connection, severing her ties with not just the train, but with the White Fang itself. She would be taking a new step in her life, as she would begin to try and redeem herself for all of the sins that she had committed in the past as a member of the White Fang.

It was at that moment, that Adam Taurus truly realised just what Chase Young had meant.

-x-

If there was one thing that Jack hated to do more than anything, it was waiting for something to happen. So not having to wait too long business to start picking up after the video where his robots took on Junior's henchmen was sent to many criminals, it was understandable that Jack was more than a bit pleased.

The henchmen may have ended up in the hospital, something that had slightly irritated Junior, but for most part they only went there for 'minor injuries' so to speak. At least they weren't arrested like the henchmen who fought those four kids were, if there was one thing worse than his henchmen being sent to the hospital, it was being sent to jail, where they could squeal about his operations.

It truly was one of the main reasons that Junior decided to take up Jack on his offer, the chances of his men being arrested when being hired out was quite high if they were working with a well-known criminal.

"Well hello! You must be the new kid making all this noise." Jack was greeted by a man with green eyes and orange hair. One of his eyes was covered by his long bangs. His outfit was made up of a white suit that was lined with red, a small grey scarf, and a black bowler hat with a ring of red around it. He also had on black gloves, trousers and shoes. In his hand was a black cane. Jack recognised him as none other than the infamous Roman Torchwich, and someone that the self-proclaimed 'Evil Boy Genius' had grown to respect since he arrived in Remnant after learning all about him.

Jack had to hold back his excitement, he'd rather not go through another Pandabubba incident again where he got screwed over by a master criminal. He really had enough nightmares to last him a lifetime in regards to that, getting double-crossed twice by the same crime lord really was rather difficult for him to deal with.

"Well, well, the infamous Roman Torchwich himself has heard of me. I must say I'm flattered." Jack smirked at the older man, who merely chuckled in response.

"Of course I've heard of you. It's isn't every day that some kid declares that he can provide a robot army for anyone who's willing to pay for one and then provides proof to back up his claim. Let's just say that a lot of people are willing to take notice of you now." Roman smirked at Jack, who couldn't stop himself from smirking evilly, if he got enough money from providing robot armies to enough people, then he could get payback on the Schnee Dust Company, who overlooked his wonderful machines.

"So, what do you say we take our talks somewhere we won't be disturbed." Jack offered, gesturing towards Robo-Jack, who waved in his direction. "We could even get you a robotic double if you're willing to pay enough, who could even take your place if things get bad."

"Kid, I like the way that you think. I know just the place." Roman grinned. Jack nodded, before he called the attention of Robo-Jack.

"I'll just be leaving, I'm leaving you in charge of the Henchman-Bots while I'm gone. Think you can handle any threats that come in?" Jack asked.

"No problem Jack, you know as well as I do that if anything happens, I'll be able to take care of it." Robo-Jack answered. Jack turned to Roman.

"I'll make sure that the robotic tone is erased out of any model that I do, I only leave it in him because I've been betrayed way too many times to trust anyone these days." Jack explained to Roman, who led him out of the nightclub.

Robo-Jack watched Jack and Roman leave the nightclub to continue their negotiations, before he turned to Junior, who merely shrugged. It seemed that even he didn't have any idea just how things were going to go between the two criminals, negotiating with Junior was one thing, but negotiating with Roman Torchwich was another thing altogether.

"Strawberry sunrise, no ice… Oh, and one of those little umbrellas." It was then when someone else walked up to the bar, and Robo-Jack looked over to the owner of the voice.

Standing there was a girl with long blond hair, pale skin, and lilac eyes. She was wearing a tan vest with puffy cap sleeves black cuffs and an orange infinity scarf. Under this, she had a low-cut crop top with a black crest that resembled a flaming heart. A brown belt with a buckle, a pouch, and had attributes of a skirt on the back, was going around her waist over black shorts. Her shoes were brown knee-high platform boots worn over orange socks of differing lengths. On both of her hands were fingerless black gloves and strange yellow bracelets.

Robo-Jack had to wonder if she used those bracelets in battle somehow, almost like how Kimiko used golden metallic birds as projectiles that combusted into large balls of fire when they were thrown at her enemies. The Jack-Bots always seemed to be her target practice for that unfortunately.

He still didn't understand why Chase allowed the Xiaolin Monks to get their Wudai Weapons, but quite frankly he didn't really care too much either. It wasn't like they were going to be able to win back their freedom or anything, nobody would be stupid enough to challenge Chase for that after all. Unless they were willing to put up their own freedom at stake, Chase would never allow the Xiaolin Warriors' freedom to be put up for stake unless he had something to gain.

Still, this girl seemed to have a lot of confidence to not only dress the way she was, showing off all of her assets, but to come here of all places dressed like that. She seemed to know that this was a location that criminals regularly came to visit, yet she didn't even seem fazed by it. Robo-Jack could admire that much at least.

"Aren't you a little young to be in this club, blondie?" Junior asked the girl, who frowned.

"You're not giving him any trouble." She pointed at Robo-Jack, who merely smirked in her direction.

"Darling, we're business partners, of course he wouldn't give me any problems." Robo-Jack laughed, causing the girl to stare at him suspiciously, she was probably wondering if the mechanical undertone in his voice was actually there or if she was just imagining it.

"Just how you two business partners? Aren't you a little young to be into that sort of thing?" The girl asked Robo-Jack, who merely shrugged.

"Hey, if I'm not able to get into any huntsman schools, I've got to try and earn a living somehow. I'm certainly not skilled enough to fight huntsmen or huntresses, nor am I comfortable enough with the idea of working in an office." Robo-Jack confessed. It was actually the truth for most part. Jack wasn't a very skilled fighting, and he would never want to work in an office doing lots of work for barely any money. He had plenty of money thanks to his parents' jobs, and with his skills in Robotic-Engineering, it was only naturally that he'd try to do work in that career path.

It was just a shame that the Schnee Dust Company didn't like him, and he would never be able to work in Atlas either. Working in the military was just not appealing for him. Working as an 'Evil Boy Genius' who was willing to supply criminals with their own robot armies? Now that was more his kind of work. The money that criminals were willing to part with for someone like that was more than enough to keep him going for many years to come and improve his skills in the future.

"I guess that makes sense." The girl admitted sheepishly. She turned to Junior. "Aren't you a little old to have a name like Junior?" She placed a hand on her hip, Robo-Jack kept his eye on her, wondering just what kind of information that she was after.

"So you know who I am… You got a name sweetheart?" Junior asked.

"Yes Junior, I've got several. But instead of sweetheart…" She trailed a finger down to Junior's chest. "You can just call me sir." Before Junior could react, the girl shot her hand down to his crotch and grabbed it in a tight hold, making Junior bend over with a pained expression. Robo-Jack shot the girl a startled look. "People say you know everything." The girl pulled out a scroll and showed it to Junior. "Tell me where I can find her and I'll let you go."

Junior's eyes darted over to Robo-Jack in panic, desperately pleading to him to help him out of this situation. Robo-Jack sighed, before he started pressing some buttons on his watch. Junior grimaced again.

"I've never seen her before, I swear." He told the girl weakly, who frowned in annoyance. She was about to apply more pressure when she felt someone tapping her shoulder. She turned around to see Robo-Jack grabbing her shoulder with a dark grin.

"I told you I'm his business partner, so what makes you think threatening him was a good idea?" Robo-Jack asked, as he tightened his grip on the girl's shoulder. She frowned at him.

"What made you think threatening me was a good idea?" Robo-Jack blinked, before yelped, as he found himself being forced to duck beneath a fist that the girl had sent his way. Instead, Junior, who had been trying to free himself found himself being knocked out instead when she punched him in the face, sending him flying across the nightclub.

As people panicked, shouting and running out of the nightclub, Robo-Jack looked at the girl cautiously, as she made her way towards him, her bracelets transforming into what appeared to be forearm gauntlets, acting as arm guards. Robo-Jack looked at the gauntlets, and at the girl who seemed rather irritated by his attempt to stop her from threatening Junior, who was out cold anyway.

"I'm starting to regret this already." Robo-Jack whimpered, before screaming like a little girl as he ducked underneath another punch. "HENCHMEN-BOTS! ATTACK!" Jack ran away as the henchman, who were revealed to be robots in disguise charged at the girl. She merely jumped in the air and slammed her fist into the ground, creating a shockwave that sent the henchmen flying back.

As she started to beat up the henchmen-bots, Robo-Jack hide behind a counter as he tried to see if he could take advantage of any openings that he could see. Yet she was able to beat them with ease, taking no damage in the process. He studied her instead, and seeing that her gauntlets could actually fire what appeared to be shotgun shells, and could use the recoil to her advantage if she needed to.

It was only when the Malachite twins decided to enter the fray that Robo-Jack could start to see opportunities to take advantage of. Yet she was still able to defeat them both without taking too much damage.

It was this moment that Robo-Jack decided to strike. He quickly made his way towards her and tried to attack her from behind, only to get a punch to the face for his troubles, which promptly sent his head flying from his shoulders. The girl looked shocked by his fate, and was distracted by Junior's reappearance, after he came back with a rocket launcher over his shoulder.

"You're going to pay for this." Robo-Jack's head found its way rolling to the girl's feet and was given the best view of Junior beaten up again by the stupidly powered girl. It was only when the shockwave of her final super-powered attack, fuelled by the anger she was feeling when she realised that Junior had pulled out some strands of her hair, that sent the club owner flying out of the club, did she turn her attention to Robo-Jack's head.

"What are you, exactly?" She picked up his head, and was stunned when he unexpectedly grinned up at her.

"Shroud of Shadows!" Suddenly, Robo-Jack's body disappeared in plain sight, and the girl was looking away cautiously, trying to figure out just where he was. "I'm so sorry that I didn't make my point clear before, but you attacking Junior was always going to have consequences!" It was at this moment that Robo-Jack's body punched the girl in the face, sending her flying back, as the robot caught his head, and reattached it back to its body.

"It's about time you respected the name of Jack Spicer, Evil Boy Genius!" Robo-Jack laughed evilly, as he watched the girl get back to her feet. "As punishment, I think you could do with a little haircut, perhaps to make you twice before you crossed me ever again!" He gloated, laughing evilly as he did so.

"If you touch my hair, you're dead!" The girl glared angrily at him, as he smirked again.

"Shroud of Shadows!" He disappeared once again, leaving the girl to look around carefully, to avoid having to be caught off again once again. She however, was punched in the face again, once, twice, three times, before she was tripped over, and felt a presence holding her down.

Robo-Jack appeared in front of her, holding a pair of scissors in his hands.

"Now, shall we get started?"

Ruby Rose stood outside of the nightclub that was owned by Junior, looking down at the man with a curious expression on her face. Ruby was a young, silver-eyed girl with black hair that had a red tint to it. She was dressed in a black blouse, a black corset with red lacing, and a skirt with red trimmings, complete with a red cloak. Attached to her back was her weapon, Crescent Rose, a High-Caliber Sniper-Scythe, currently in its compact form.

However, a teenaged boy was suddenly sent flying out of the nightclub window, screaming like a little girl as he did so. Ruby watched in horrified fascination as he continued to fly further and further away, showing no signs of stopping.

It was when she heard someone landing behind her, did Ruby look nervous, slowly turning around to see just who had sent the other teenager flying. She looked rather startled when she recognised just who she was looking at.

"Yang? Is that you?" Ruby asked, wondering just what the hell was going on.

"Oh! Hey sis!" Yang's red eyes turned back to lilac, her expression lightening up when she recognised her younger sister.

"What are you doing here? Did you sent that guy flying just now? I think he's still going." Ruby turned try and see the guy who had flown past her.

"He tried to cut my hair." Yang's answered told the entire story.

"Oh…" As did Ruby's horrified whisper.

-x-

"A pleasure doing business with you." Jack Spicer shook hands with Roman Torchwich, who looked more a bit pleased.

"I look forward to doing business with you again." Roman replied, looking pleased. "If I have any schematics of any mechanical creation that I need someone to build for me, then I need only go to you?"

"Indeed. I always enjoy making new robots for everyone to enjoy, especially if they cause destruction and mayhem." Jack rubbed his hands in excitement.

"So when can I expect the…" Roman paused when he heard a girly scream coming closer and closer for some reason. Jack looked around too, though his expression looked more panicked than Roman's. Suddenly, passing the window of the warehouse they were using for their meeting, they saw Robo-Jack fly by, screaming like a little girl.

Jack stared at Roman, who stared right back at him.

The silence was telling.

Omi and Clay were training in their respective fighting styles in a park near the hotel they were currently staying in with Raimundo and Kimiko. Omi had wanted to do some training to pass the time, while Clay had offered to go with him to ensure that his friend didn't get into any trouble. It was so far so good, there hadn't been any issues as far as Clay could see, and Omi was keeping himself under control and not doing anything too flashy.

The most that Omi was currently doing was using his Wudai Weapon, the Shimo Staff in its various form in order to keep him in practice and to avoid getting rusty with his weapon. It wasn't going to happen if you trained with it every day like Omi did. He trained every day using all of the moves that he had learnt over the years to perfect them in every way possible, if there was a way to innovate a technique, then Omi wanted to find it.

Clay was also practicing his form, while keeping an eye on Omi. His weapon looked like a boomerang, but could cut through mountains like a knife going through butter, so it was a little difficult to really practice using, and with his Earth style fighting moves, it was also difficult to be subtle about practicing his fighting style.

Both Omi and Clay raised their heads when they heard girly screaming, familiar girly screaming. They watched Robo-Jack fly over them, still screaming like a little girl.

"What in tarnation happened to that no good Jack Spicer?"

"I thought it was Robo-Jack…"

-x-

Raimundo was rather grateful that Clay had offered to watch over Omi while the young monk was training in his fighting style. It gave him more time to be with Kimiko, and to show his appreciation for her.

Kimiko groaned in pleasure as he kissed her neck again, she was giving him free reign to do what he wanted and right now, she was more than happy to say that she was enjoying herself. It had been so long since they had some time for themselves.

Watching out to ensure that they didn't accidentally scar Omi with their activities was one of the hardest things that they could do, but with Clay also there to help them out whenever they needed him to, the test was made a whole lot easier.

They both froze.

"Please tell me that I was just imagining that." Kimiko groaned in frustration. Just when they were getting to the good part too!

"Nope, I heard his screaming too." Raimundo sighed, before they heard Robo-Jack slam into the well next to the window. Raimundo poked his head out of the window, and spotted Robo-Jack being imprinted into the wall. The robot turned his head to Raimundo, with a pained look on his face.

"Raimundo… I can officially say here and now, that blonds scare me." Robo-Jack uttered, painfully, only to start screaming again when Raimundo pulled him out of the imprint and dropped him several stories down below.

Raimundo took far more pleasure than he should've done when he heard the resounding thud when the robot finally hit the ground.

Chase Young watched the footage that his spies had recorded again, trying to understand just what was going on. He had watched a young woman with brown hair and eyes, being attacked by a young woman with long black hair and amber eyes, and her allies, a pale teenaged boy with grey hair and eyes, and a teenaged girl with green hair and red eyes. The young woman with black hair used a mysterious glove to steal the powers of a young woman with brown hair, but was interrupted by man with greying black, spiky hair, who severed the connection before the black hair woman was able to steal all of the other woman's power. While she was able to escape, having stolen part of the of other woman's power, the victim was left comatose by the attack.

It was something that he hadn't expected to see when he arrived in this world, but quite frankly, it gave him hope that he might be able to actually enjoy himself in this world, another way to increase his power when he found the woman in red. He needed to find out what this supernatural power was, and how he could claim it for himself. If he needed to kill the woman in red, then so be it, but the power that she possessed, was now something that he wanted to obtain for himself.

He looked at the Eagle Scope, before an idea came to mind. If he could use the Fountain of Hui and the Eagle Scope to gain the knowledge of how to create a portal that allowed him to come to this world, then perhaps he could use them to find out knowledge about this world that he didn't know about. Would that even work however, did the Shen Gong Wu that allowed him to gain knowledge work in other worlds or not?

Chase decided that it was worth an effort, he didn't have anything to lose by going down this route. Sure he had time on his side, since he couldn't die thanks to his potion, the Lao Mang Lone Soup, so he didn't need to rush things through.

"Fountain of Hui! Eagle Scope!" Once again, Chase Young found himself inside the fountain that showed random knowledge which was being slowed down. However, he couldn't find the knowledge. For some reason he couldn't find what he was looking for, it was almost as if the key words that he was looking for wasn't broad enough to find just what he was looking for, despite all of the knowledge that was available to him.

Perhaps the knowledge was just not accessible to him because the Shen Gong Wu didn't know information from another world. It was an understandable thought, but one that irritated him more than he'd like to admit. It was a price that he was willing to pay if it meant that he got more power under his control, and allowed himself to become stronger than anything else in the universe.

-x-

It was the next day that Raimundo found himself going into a bookshop called 'Tukson's Book Trade'. Chase had ordered all of the Xiaolin Monks to do some research on some supernatural powers that he had seen through the eyes of one of his fallen warriors. The information on the subject was so broad that it could take them years and years just to find the information in question.

So Raimundo decided, for a laugh, to try and use fairy tales as a way to pass the time, as well as a way to try and trick Omi into falling asleep when he was getting to twitchy at night. Sure, Omi slept on his head, but there was also times when Omi just would not sleep at all, getting too excited by the next day, leaving everyone else having to try and calm him down.

"Welcome to Tukson's Book Trade, home to every book under the sun." Raimundo was greeted by a broad-chested man, who had black hair and hazel eyes. He put away some books that had been carrying from the back. "I'm Tukson, how may I help you?"

"I'm looking for a few things, but mostly I'm looking for fairy tales. I'm trying to get my little brother to sleep earlier in the day so he doesn't cause trouble for me and my friends when we start going to Beacon." Raimundo requested, getting a strange look from Tukson. "It surprisingly works every time, I still have no idea why.

"We have a good selection. I'd recommend you try 'The Tale of the Two Brothers', 'The Shallow Sea', 'The Girl in the Tower' and 'The Story of the Seasons'. They're the most popular ones around at the moment." Tukson recommended to Raimundo, who nodded in thanks. After paying for the books, he made a note to come back again soon, the selection of books that they had there was rather good. If anything, Chase needed to at least try and come to Vale itself, just the at least experience it.

So that's the end of Chapter 3.

There's a few jokes here that I felt were somewhat subtle, but some jokes were rather blunt as well.

I rewrote the first scene where Chase fights Blake and Adam at least 6 times before I was even remotely satisfied with it, but even now I feel that it's a bit weak. I struggled to make sure that Blake and Adam weren't completely destroyed by Chase, so what I ended up with was decent I suppose.

Hell, the second one where Robo-Jack fights Yang was even weaker in my opinion, but Robo-Jack was never going to win that one.

I also wanted to try and limit the use of the Fountain of Hui and Eagle Scope combination, I'd rather that I didn't use that to solve every problem that Chase has.

The plan for the next chapter is to at least get to Beacon for the Xiaolin Monks, Team RWBY and Team JNPR, but I'm struggling for a name for the Monks right now.

The best I've got right now is team ROCK, Raimundo, Omi, Clay and Kimiko, but I honestly feel that I can do better than that surely.

Let me know what you think about this chapter, it'll be nice to get some feedback.

Until next time goodbye and goodnight.
