Ozpins office - 10:30AM
Jacob and Ruby were both standing in front of Ozpin, Glynda, and Ironwood.
"Now then, Mr. Frye, and Ms. Rose, the general here has already informed us about the events that transpired last night... But now that you two are rested, we were wondering if you had anything to add" Ozpin said.
Jacob just shrugged. "There isn't much to say that hasn't already been said" He said.
"What about this woman?" Glynda asked. "Was anyone else with her? Did she look familiar to you at all?"
"Well..." Ruby sighed. "I don't know. She wore a mask, She didn't say anything... and her clothing lit up whenever she attacked"
"Hmm... clothing lighting up. That sounds like the woman I fought the night we meet Ruby and the Frye twins" She said to Ozpin.
"Embedding Dust into clothing is an age-old technique" Ironwood said. "It could've been anyone"
"Wait... Do you guys think this girl's connected to Torchwick and the White Fang?" Ruby asked.
"It's possible..." Ozpin said. Ruby had a concerned look on her face while Jacob had a blank look, since he knew the answer already. "But we still lack the evidence to link the two together"
Jacob held in his smirk from that. 'More like it's common sense' He thought.
"Actually I..." They all looked at Ruby. "I think I remembered she mentioned something about a hideout in the southeast or something... In the southeast. Just outside the kingdom" She said.
"Hmm... Interesting" Ozpin said.
"What? But I thought you said the intruder didn't say any-"
"Thank you for your cooperation Ruby" Ozpin said interrupting Glynda. "You can go back to your dorm room and spend time with your team? You have a big day ahead of you" He said. Ruby smiled and turned the other way to leave. Jacob turned as well to leave as well. "Wait Jacob. Will you stay a little longer?" He asked.
Jacob sighed while Ruby looked back at him. "Let the others know I'll be back later" He said. She nodded and went into the elevator. When it closed, Evie came out from behind the pillar and went visible.
"You ever decide to mention that Ms. Rose knows about the southeast hideout as well?" Ironwood asked.
"The whole team knows about it" Evie said. "Don't worry about them. They won't get in the way"
"Now then. What do you have from your drone?" Jacob asked.
Ironwood put a device on the table. He turned it on and it showed images in the air on top of the device. It showed images of the ruined city of Mountain Glenn. As well as images of White Fang soldiers in the distance moving dust out of Bullheads.
"They are using the city as a hideout" Ironwood said.
"So... The plan's still on?" Jacob asked.
"We send as many troops as possible to eradicate the enemy" He said.
Glynda shook her head and glared at him. "Were you not paying attention the other day? Why must your answer to everything involve a massive display of military bravado?" She asked.
He turned his head to her. "You mean you guys were serious of sending two children?"
"Edward is right about you. You treat every situation like it's a contest of measuring di-"
"Glynda!" Ozpin said interrupting her.
She frown and crossed her arms. "Well he does..."
Ozpin stood up. "She's right Ironwood. As much as I would love to end this situation with the map, we must be so bold, nor can we risk the spread of panic if word ever got out... So the plan is still on. Jacob and Evie will infiltrate the city on there own... But I may send a Huntress out to help them" He looked at the twins. "Steal the map once the vaults open... And if either of you get the chance to kill Torchwick, you take it"
The twins nodded. Ironwood walked over to Ozpin. "I have served you faithfully for years Oz... But if you mean to tell me that you wish to risk everything on two teens against an army?"
"We can handle it" Evie said.
"What can a huntsman and huntress in training do against an experienced hitman and an organization of human hating Faunus?" He asked.
"We prefer the term 'Assassins'" Jacob said. "By the end of the day, that map will be ours"
Evie looked at Ozpin. "You mentioned a Huntress to help us? Who?"
"I know of a Huntress in mind who owes me a favor. She's left the Protectors, but she's still a friend... To an extent. I'll give her a call to meet you there" Ozpin said, which the twins nodded to. "Then it's settled... Oh, but one last thing. I ask that one of you go see Edward before heading back to your teams" He said.
"I'll do it" Evie said almost immediately. "I'm sure he others won't mind if I'm gone a little longer"
Jacob looked over to her, noticing how she insisted on going quickly. "Very well... If you say so"
The two left the office and waited for the elevator. When they got in and got down to the ground floor, Jacob went outside and Evie went the other direction.
RWBY(J) Dorm - 11:00AM
Jacob went to his dorm room door and when he opened the door, a little black and white dog ran out the door and ran around. He raised a brow, and when he turned his head back to the room, Ruby ran to the door and pushed him out of the way to get out the door.
"ZWEI! GET BACK HERE!" Ruby yelled as she sprinted out the door.
Jacob dusted himself off and looked at the other girls. "What's with the dog?"
"That's Zwei. our pet dog" Yang said. "Our dad mailed him to us"
"Of course your family is the only one that would mail a dog" He said and rolled his eyes.
Zwei ran back into the room barking. Blake quickly got on Rubys bed to avoid him. "Keep him away from my belongings!" She said.
Ruby ran back into he room and got on the ground to play with Zwei. Jacob and the others just sat and watched them.
Edwards lab - 11:05AM
"I have to say Evie. Since working on that life support machine for the Fall Maiden, I haven't had to so much work for the order" Edward said as he grabbed some stuff around the lab, while Evie sat down waiting for him. "It'll take a moment to get the stuff if you don't mind waiting"
"Take your time" Evie said. She looked at the messages on her Scroll. Most of them were from Jaune and Pyrrha trying to get in touch with her. Evie wasn't sure what to do or say about the situation last night, so she's just trying to stay away from the two to make things less awkward until she can think of what to do. She was taken out her thoughts when Edward dropped a box on the table. "What's in there?"
"New weapons for you and Jacob" He said and opened the box. He pulled out some syringes with blue liquid in them. "You have your hallucinogenic berserk darts, and these are sleep darts. Don't want to raise suspicion with killing someone? Put them to sleep"
She hummed and picked the syringes up. She looked at some more in the box and saw some with green liquid in them. "Let me guess, poison?"
"Makes a good distraction if you poison someone. And it's always funny watching them do a little dance" He said.
"Or pour it into an unsuspecting fools water supply" Evie added.
"Ooooh" He said and laughed. "You sure are a killer Evie... Glad a girl of your talents is with us" He said. He then put a backpack on the table. "That bags filled to the brim of Dust bullets for you and Jacob, a few bottles of your medicine you use, and those voltaic bombs you carry"
She nodded and took the box to give the rest to Jacob later. "Thanks a lot Edward... Um, one last thing?"
"Yes?"
"Do you have anything for... um..." She pulled her hood off and moved her head around showing him the hickies. "These?"
"Hm... Had fun at the dance I see" He said. She glared at him, so he laughed. "Relax. I'm sure I have some stuff to cover those" He said and walked away. She sighed and looked in the mirror in his lab, checking out her hickies. Edward came back with some makeup and brushed some stuff on her neck to look just like her skin and cover the hickies. "There you go"
"Thanks... well, I should get going" Evie said and stood up.
"Good luck in Mountain Glenn Evie" He said.
She left the lab with the box.
JNPR(E) Dorm - 11:25AM
Evie took a deep breath in front of her door. She had to get ready for Jaune and Pyrrha, knowing full well what they're gonna opened her eyes and opened the door to her room. Jaune turned his head from his desk and Pyrrha looked up from her bed, both looking at Evie.
"Uhh... Hi guys" Evie said and sat down.
"Heeeyyyy... Evie..." Jaune said and smiled nervously.
"Hello there" Pyrrha said and just smiled awkwardly.
Evie looked around and just sighed. "Look, I'll address the elephant int he room... What happened last night happened, and we can't change it" She said.
Jaune got up. "Evie umm... I-I said this to Pyrrha earlier, but... if I did anything you didn't wan-"
"Stop" She said. "It's not that I didn't enjoy it... Because I did... I just didn't want it to happen in general" She said.
"I... I'm sorry" Pyrrha said and got up. "I was drunk, and caused all this to begin with..." She said.
"Oh stop it. It wasn't like me and Jaune didn't enjoy it" Evie said. "Look, we all saw and did things we regret... I don't want things to be awkward between us so let's just forget about it, ok?" Evie asked.
"Yeah... Probably be good to forget about that" Jaune said.
"Your right" Pyrrha said.
There was a ding from the P.A. "Will all first year students please report to the amphitheater" Glynda said.
RWBY(J) Dorm - 11:30AM
"I repeat. All first year students please report to the amphitheater" She said.
Weiss looked Zwei. "We can't exactly leave him here while we're gone for a week" She said. Yang looked in the rest of the cylinder package when a ton of cans of dog food fell on the ground. "What's he supposed to do with that?" Weiss asked.
Just as she said that, a can opener fell on the ground as well. "Well that settles that... Come on girls and boy! Zwei will be here when we get back" Yang said and walked off. Jacob Weiss and Blake followed, while Ruby stayed behind. She looked at Zwei and smirked.
Amphitheater - 12:00PM
Jacob and the girls made it into the amphitheater, and put there bags to the side. They walked over to where all the other Vale students were and stood there.
Evie and her team soon got in as well. Evie put both her regular bag then the backpack down before walking over to the Vale area as well
As Ozpin spoke on the stage, Evie casually walked over next to Jacob. "I trust Edward didn't let us down?" Jacob whispered.
"Sleep darts and poison darts" Evie whispered back. "Along with extra ammunition"
He smirk and nodded. "Did Ozpin tell you anything about this huntress who'll meet us? I mean, he said she's an ex member... that's not a good sign"
"As long as Ozpin trusts her, I don't care who she is. We'll need all the help we can have" She said.
"Oh? Starting to worry we can't do it alone?"
"A Piece of Eden is something to be very worried about. You of all people know that"
"Yeah... You're not wrong" Jacob said. They looked around as a few screens appeared with missions on them.
"As the semester comes to a close, you first years will be shadowing a professional Huntsmen or Huntress on your first mission" Ozpin said. "Some of you may be taken out the kingdom for a few days, while others may stay within the kingdom walls for the rest of the week... But no matter where you go, remember all of you..." He looked around the room then stopped his eyes at Jacob and Evie. "Remember to be safe, remember your training, and remember to do your very best out there" he said before walking away from the microphone.
As the students clapped in applause, Evie got a text on her scroll. After she read it, she nudged Jacobs arm and showed him the message from Glynda.
"Choose 'Search and Destroy: Quadrant 6.' That's where you'll meet the Huntress, then she'll walk with you to Mountain Glenn" She texted.
Jacob sighed. They walked over to the Search and Destroy bounty board. "Quadrant 6... That's like a day away from Mountain Glenn. Why not head to Quadrant 5 itself?" He asked and pointed to Quadrant 5 which was on the bounty board.
"Ozpin wouldn't want any students walking right into a White Fang hideout... He's probably got that mission restricted or something" Evie said. She tapped on Quadrant 6 and typed in the team name the twins use when it comes to missions; FRYE. The mission was soon checked off, then the twins got a notification on there scrolls. Evie looked at hers. "Our Bullhead is waiting for us in 30 minutes" She said.
"Man... the last month of Ozpin putting us on missions early seem like nothing compared to this" Jacob said.
"Right indeed Mr. Frye. This mission after all, counts to your semester performance" Ozpin said walking over to the twins. "I see you picked Quadrant 6... A high concentration of Grimm in that area" He said and smiled. "Though... I doubt you two have anything to worry about, so long as you stick to your training"
Jacob and Evie smiled. "Thank you professor... You have our word we won't let you down" Evie said.
"Your word will only carry you so far Ms. Frye... The things outside the kingdom won't care about your word" He said and walked away.
Glynda walked over to Ozpin as the twins walked away. "You know, I hate admitting when Ironwoods right but... Are you sure those two will be enough?" She asked him.
He looked at her. "Not really... But it's better than his entire army getting involved. But you're right. Two teens aren't enough" He said. That's when he saw Team RWBY trying to take Search and Destroy: Quadrant 5. Ozpin had that mission fixed so that no first years could access that mission. "Hmm... perhaps four more teens should do the trick" He said and walked over.
Glynda raised a brow confused. "Wait... What?"
Outside - 12:15PM
Jacob and Evie walked past the courtyard and walked down the path to the landing pads.
"Nice to know Ozpin still acts the same way to other students" Jacob said.
"He's right though. We need to expect anything will happen out there" Evie said as she gave Jacob some of the syringes.
he took them and put them away. "Ooohhhh. Nice tools you got here. Where'd you get them?" Edward asked and walked over.
"Good one" Jacob said. "We're headed to our bullhead now... Wish us luck" He said.
"Of course" He said and nodded. Evie turned back around and started to walk, that's when Edward put his hand on Jaocbs shoulder. "Remember. Get the map, then don't tell Ozpin or the others for now" He whispered.
"Are you forgetting Evie? What am I supposed to do with her?" Jacob asked.
"Figure something out" He said back. Evie turned and saw the two were still talking.
"Jacob! Lets go!" She called for him.
He sighed. "I'll find a way. I promise" He said then left. He kept walking with Evie.
Hey got to the end of the path and saw teams RWBY and JNPR talking.
"Hey there!" Jacob said as they walked over to the others.
"Hey Jacob!" Ruby said.
"Hey Evie..." Jaune said and smiled.
Evie cough slightly. "So! Uhhh... Where are you guys going on missions?" She asked.
"We're going to shadow the sheriff of a village" Ren said.
"How exciting" Jacob said. "Whats about you girls?"
"We're going to kill some grimm in Mountain Glenn" Yang said.
If Jacob and Evie weren't trained to stay perfectly calm in times like this, they'd probably have a panic attack. Instead they were freaking out in there heads how they'll be in the same place Ozpin doesn't want anyone else.
"Hm... That's interesting. Isn't that the abandon city?" Evie asked casually.
"Yeah. A failed expansion" Blake said.
"Hmmm..." Evie nodded.
"Who's your Huntsman?" Jacob asked.
They all frowned when he said that. "FOUR MINUTES LADIES!" Doctor Oobleck yelled.
"Ah..." Jacob said. "Well, best of luck to you girls"
"See you in a week!" Ruby said as they walked away to the bullhead.
Once they got in and took off, another bullhead landed. "This must be for us... Have fun at that village you guys" Evie said. As she and Jacob made there way over to the bullhead, Pyrrha walked over and stopped Evie.
"Evie... Do you think we can talk later on?" She asked.
She sighed. "What's there to talk about?" She asked.
"Well... You know..."
"Evie! We have to go" Jacob called.
Evie sighed and pat Pyrrhas shoulder. "We'll see each other in a week. Ok?" She said. Pyrrha frowned as she and Jacob got in the bullhead and flew off.
Vale sky - 12:30PM
Evie was on her scroll trying to call Ozpin. "Hello professor... This is now the THIRD message I've left" She said. "I don't know if you remembered the whole 'keeping this mission discreet' stuff, but Team RWBY is currently on there way to Mountain Glenn. You know where that is, right? I'm sure you do... Just call me back already!" She said and put her scroll away.
"You think he did this on purpose?" Jacob asked.
"I doubt it... But if he did, he best have a good reason" She said and looked out the side of the bullhead. She watched a raven fly close to them. After a few minutes, they made it to there destination in the forest. They both jumped out the bullhead and landed on the grass.
"This is the spot... Where's the Huntress already?" Jacob asked looking around.
"Beats me" She said. As they looked around, they heard a bird caw loudly. They looked up and saw the same raven from earlier. It flew down and went right between them. They woah and back away as it flew by. They turned around and saw the raven fly behind a tree then out came a human that landed on the ground. She was a black haired red eyed woman wearing a red and black combat outfit with thigh high socks and a skirt. Jacob and Evie watch in shock when they saw that.
"Ozpin sent you two, huh? He tells me you two are special" The woman said. Jacob narrowed his eyes when he got a look at her face, and how similar she looked to someone else.
"You're the Huntress Ozpin sent" Evie said. "I'm Evie Frye. And this is my twin brother, Jacob Frye" She said.
She stood up strait with one hand over her sword, and her other hand on her chest. "I am Raven Branwen" She said. "Ex Huntress, tribe leader, and-"
"Yangs mother" Jacob said once he realized the resemblance.
