I'm back! And this would be up earlier but I didn't have the script with me.
So recent chapter of Vol5, main focus is on Blake but we do learn more about the sisters and Weiss. As in confirmation that Weiss's mom is an alcoholic.
Regarding Blake, we have our first gay character in RWBY: Illia! And more I learn about her, the less I regret killing her off in this series.
But for now, on with this story!
(Play Primeval Theme)
There's a black background and shards of glass floating in a sphere formation.
Shards come together to form two pairs: one an image of Ruby Rose, then of a screeching Velociraptor.
Two more pairs form an image of Weiss Schnee then of a shrieking Troodon.
Two more pairs form an image of Blake Belladonna then of a Dinofelis leaping towards the screen.
Two more pairs form an image of Yang Xiao Long then of an Ankylosaurus flailing its club.
Two more pairs form an image of Darrel Maximus and a T-rex roaring, jaws glowing light blue.
Two more pairs form an image of Isaac Von Reinhbach and Woolly Mammoth trumpeting in a blizzard.
Two more form an image of Matthew Lewis then of an Utahraptor leaping down, the sun behind it.
The last pair forms an image of Dalton Goldenrod then of a Megalania running towards the screen, hissing.
All the shards come together to form RWBY with Primeval below it before all the shards scatter.

Noon
Beacon Gym
After sustaining serious injuries after his last hybrid fight, Darrel is doing some physical therapy work to get back on his feet. Blake is there to make sure he doesn't over-exert himself. He just finished using the pull-up bar and rubbed his sides.
Blake walked up to him with a towel and a bottle of water. "Thanks, Kitty Cat."He thanked her. She kissed his cheek. "Your welcome, dear."She chirped.
As they sat on the bench, he got a text on his scroll that another anomaly popped up and its in the Emerald Forest. The text is from Luis.
"Well Blake, we got what is hopefully the last anomaly."Darrel stated. Blake sighed. "Let's go,"She grabbed his shirt "but you better watch yourself, young man!"She shouted. "Yes ma'am!"
They went to the Emerald Forest and saw at the ruins where Luis and Cass standing in front of the anomaly. They enter the anomaly and are hit by a wave of heat.
The surrounding environment was a vast swampy environment with some plains. "Wow, its much hotter and more humid than your average swamp."Blake said, already sweating.
"That's because in 100 million years time, the sea floor will have risen greatly and erupting volcanoes that release CO2 into the air have flooded much of the land and warmed up the atmosphere, creating a greenhouse effect."Cass explained.
Darrel turned into a Spinosaurus and he lowered himself down so Blake, Cass, and Luis could sit on his neck and he trekked through the swampland.
He soon felt the ground shake. He looked around and saw leaving a grove of what was once trees and brush were huge sauropod-like reptiles.
"Toratons. They're descended from tortoises and adults are 120 tons, much heavier than any other animal except of course the Blue Whale. They live in herds and are vegetarians."Luis explained.
One of the giant tortoises noticed Darrel and was not afraid of him but still cautious. "If they are like elephants in some aspects, they may be willing to defend any offspring so we should keep our distance but still follow them."Blake suggested.
He nodded and followed them, far enough to not spook them but close enough he could see them. They soon arrived at a vast lake with trees for the colossal reptiles to browse on.
Darrel saw in the middle of the lake was an island and on the island was a plant that looked like a cross between a cattails and a bromeliad. And guarding it, are various brown colored octopi but only have 4 visible tentacles.
"Those are Swampus, descended from octopus and are amphibious and live in groups to protect young that live in that plant they are sitting around. They can live on land thanks to a rich blood supply that can hold air in like a lung and 4 of their tentacles are used for hauling themselves onto land. They can kill young Toratons with their venomous bite but only out of defense."Cass explained.
Darrel then saw something strange in the water. At first glance it looked like a log with strange branch-like protrusions. He moved his head closer and then backed away quickly as he saw that it was actually a giant catfish covered in muddy brown scales and the fins are for disguise and it had barbels on its face. He then snapped his crocodile-like jaws around its head and then tossed it onshore. He held it down with his legs and let his powerful claws tear it up. He then started feeding on it.
"That was a Lurkfish, a type of electric catfish that can generate a 1,000 volts to stun prey like the Swampus."Luis explained.
Blake noticed one young Toraton get stuck in some mud and she saw also something approaching it from the water. It was a giant crocodile easily 50 feet long and covered in black scales. "A Bog King, descended from modern day crocodiles and they often hunt in pairs to take down Toratons."Cass explained.
The colossal crocodile started dragging the young tortoise back into its watery domain. Thankfully, its mother came and crushed the crocodiles head flat. With some help from other members of the herd, the baby was safe and reunited with its family.
"So I think we should go before I melt."Blake said, continuing to sweat profusely. They nodded and trekked back to the anomaly. They return to the 21st century and then the last anomaly closed.
"Well I don't know about you guys, but I need to get some rest."Darrel said, having changed back.
He returned to his room and laid down. He was then joined by Blake who nuzzled him, purring. He smiled and kissed his soon-to-be wife.
So yeah this is the last anomaly. The rest will be the last two hybrids, with the very last hybrid being the most infamous: Indominus Rex! After the big battle with her, it will be my Darrel & Blake getting married and the cliffhanger for my next story.
Oh what's that? I plan on making another RWBY story, you people hear me say? Well you're right: I am. But next story is a sequel to this one. I will make another that is much bigger storyline and include all characters of RWBY in some way.
Until then, R&R my friends!
