Chapter 16: No Breaks
At the underground cavern at Mountain Glenn Ruby was being pushed into the ground by Roman and the well known criminal was really enjoying every minute of knocking Ruby back.
Roman laughed at Ruby struggles against him "wow you are much more manageable without that oversized gardening tool of yours" Roman said as he leaned on his cane.
Ruby charged at Roman but the their merely side step and hit Ruby knocking her towards the ground again. Roman wiped a tear from his eye
"Oh man ya know Perry I really did need this" Roman said as he laughed while the white fang member gave him a thumbs up.
He then managed to calm down a bit "but seriously how'd ya find this place Red" Roman said as he knelt down towards Ruby and lifted her face with his Cane.
Ruby just growled at Roman and she just got away from him while using her semblance leaving rose petals behind.
"Huh" Roman said as he turned around and he saw that Ruby was running away "woah" Roman said as he flipped his cane to his handle and activate the grappling hook of the cane and fired it at Ruby grabbing her by the back of the neck and started dragging her back.
"I see you've got some tricks on your sleeves let me make this clear we're not through yet" Roman said as he attaches his cane back in place.
He then heard a explosion "oh what the" Roman said as he turned to look at the white fang members.
"Perry if you and the boys can take care of that kind of in a middle of something" Roman said as the white fang member nodded but then another explosion happened.
"What is going on here!" Roman yelled as another explosion happened and White Fang members were being pushed back.
"Run" a white gang member said as some of them were shooting at something and Roman and Ruby saw that it was the rest of team RWBY along with Batman and Oobleck was driving the White Fang back.
Roman growled but Ruby jumped on his head but he threw her off of him but Ruby quickly got back up and ran trying to get back to the others.
"Somebody kill her!" Roman said as he lifted up his crane and opened it up and he shot Ruby along with the white fang members but thanks to Ruby speed she managed to avoid the gun shots.
Roman bent his cane on frustration he then turned to look at a white fang member.
"Attach this car, and spread the world we're starting the train" Roman said as he started to walk away.
"But we're not finished" the white fan member said but Roman turned around and pinned him to the train wall with his cane.
"Do it or your finished" Roman said as he let the white fan member go and left the area.
As Ruby was running she saw a few white fan members in front of her causing her to stop as they pointed their guns at her but Batman who threw a bomb and Yang who used her gauntlets caused a massive explosion knocking them back towards the wall.
"Ruby!" Yang yelled as Ruby hugged her.
"Are you ok?' Weiss asked her leader.
"I'm fine I'm fine but listen Torchwick has all sorts of weapons and robots down there" Ruby said.
"What" Blake said as she gave Ruby her weapon back.
"Androids techs they're all loaded up on the train cars" Ruby said.
"But that shouldn't be possible" Batman said.
"Indeed all these tunnels should be sealed the tracks lead to a dead end" Oobleck said.
"Get to your places we are leaving now" a white fan member said over a speaker.
The group then saw the train starting and beginning to move.
"Well it sounds like they're going somewhere" Yang said.
"We need backup let me call Jaune" Ruby said as she tried to call the blond hair boy but sadly she couldn't through because she doesn't have any signal.
"I can't get through" Ruby said.
"So what do we do?" Weiss asked as Batman walked forward until he was in front of the group and narrowed his eyes.
"We are doing the only option we have left we are stopping this train ourselves" the dark crusader of Atlas said.
As the train were going through the tunnels a white fang member heard a thud sound on top of the roof.
"I think they're on the" he didn't finish his sentence as Oobleck knocked him out with his staff.
Roman was at the front of the train and a door opened revealed another white fang member.
"Boss they made it on the train" the white fang member said causing Roman to loudly sigh in annoyance.
"Then grab some cargo and get them off the train" Roman said as the white fang grunt nodded and left.
"Manic animals every last one of em" Roman said as he forgot about the member that was driving the train.
"Not you though heh your great" Roman said to the driver.
Back with the others who was still on top of the train.
"Hurry everyone we must get to the front and stop this train" Oobleck said.
"Uh Batman, Professor" Weiss said
"Doctor" Oobleck said.
"What is that?" Weiss asked as Batman and Oobleck looked at the device she pointed at.
Batman narrowed his eyes "that's a bomb but it looks like it hasn't activated yet" Batman said as team RWBY backed away when he said it was a bomb.
"We got baddies" Ruby pointed as everyone saw white fang grunts coming towards them on top of the train.
"Well I didn't expect them to go" Oobleck started to say as he saw that the bomb was activating.
"Easy on us" Oobleck said as he stood up "time to go" Oobleck said as the others went to jump on the other cart.
"Blake detach the cabbose it will kill us all" Oobleck said.
Blake nodded "on it" she said and jump down between the two carts and right when she was about to the separate the train carts they separated themselves automatically.
"Huh" Blake said "it decoupled itself" Blake said.
"What" Oobleck said.
"I guess he really doesn't want us on this train" Yang said.
Oobleck and the others then saw the cart explode.
"That's not good" Oobleck said
"Uh neither is this" Ruby said as she found another bomb.
"Another bomb!" Blake yelled.
Batman activated his scanners and he looked and saw every cart had bombs.
"They all have bombs they must activate maybe by our heat signatures or whenever we land on another cart" Batman said as Oobleck jumped to another cart and checked that their was another bomb inside.
"Your right!" Oobleck said as the bomb activated and everyone else jump towards another cart.
"This doesn't make sense" Yang said as she and everyone else turned around and they saw that the white fang grunts were getting closer.
"Get the humans!" a female white fan member said.
Batman took something from his utility belt and he pressed a button and soon he had a long black staff he swung it around while and got into position and team RWBY readied their weapons and position themselves right next to the dark knight of Atlas.
A white fan member attacked Yang first but she kicked him upwards leaving him in the air and she winked at him before punching him straight down inside the train cart..
Blake and Batman didn't hesitate as they went towards some White Fang members and hit and slash a couple of them with their staff and them off the two of them sense a white fang member attacking them from behind and they both turned around and deliver a swift kick to the grunt witch resulted on knocking him off the cart.
Weiss charged ahead cteating ice glaciers knocking the white fang grunts back and she quickly disarmed their weapons by using her myrtnraster after she did that Weiss looked at Ruby.
Ruby grinned and with Cresect Rose she shot and propelled herself along with her semblance with one swing she knocked out the rest of the white fang members.
Oobleck and looked and saw the cart they were on exploded creating a hole and a bunch of Grimm came out of the hole and they were running after the train.
"Oh dear" Oobleck said.
"He leading Grimm into the city!" Oobleck said.
"What!" Weiss yelled.
"Its the cars they deatch and explode creating opening for the Grimm" Oobleck said.
"That's insane!" Blake yelled.
"But clever I didn't think he would use the Grimm against us" Batman thought as he gritted his teeth a little bit.
Another cart was detached "we have to hurry Batman and the rest of you three you guys go below and try to stop those bombs" Oobleck said as he ran.
"What about us" Ruby asked.
"We're going to stop this train" Oobleck said.
"Yeah I know Batman said that earlier" Ruby said.
The group continue to run across the train and a couple of white fang members went into mechs and one jumped on top and ran towards the top at the moment Batman Blake Weiss and Yang went below while at the same time Ruby Oobleck and Zwei went ahead towards the mech.
"Up ahead" Oobleck said as the mech was running towards the three of them.
"We've got a problem" Oobleck said as they were facing the mech and he drunk his then grinned as lit a flame on his staff and Zwei barked.
Oobleck then set Zwei on fire and he hit the flaming dog as it rolled into a ball and completely destroyed the mech.
Zwei barked as he saw another mech and while it prepared to fire Oobleck destroyed by shooting a bunch of fireballs at it destroying.
Meanwhile Blake Weiss Batman and Yang landed inside one of the carts.
"Are you three ready?" Batman asked Blake Yang and Weiss.
"Yeah I mean this is what we trained for" Yang said.
"Here this should help you" Weiss said as she gave Blake some dust and the four of them ran and they encountered Neo.
"You three go ahead this one mine" Yang said.
"Are you sure about this she has some type of illusion semblance and she strong I can tell" Batman said.
"Bats we don't have time to waste you three need to go now besides I got this" Yang said as Batman nodded and he Weiss and Blake went on ahead and when Neo was about to attack them Yang shot at her causing Neo to flip back.
Yang then walked up to Neo and sized her up and Neo despite being half Yang size didn't look afraid at all in fact she just smirked at Yang.
Yang gritted her teeth as she tried to punch Neo who just grinned as she knocked Yang her umbrella.
Yang looked at Neo who opened her umbrella while giving out a smirk Yang didn't take offense to that as she went up and attacked Neo multiple times with her first and feet but Neo effortsely kept dodging her attacks. Neo then kicked Yang down to the ground and Yang looked up at Neo.
Neo did flip and tried to kick Yang to where she was but Yang managed to dodge the attack she got up quickly and went to punch Neo but Neo blocked the attack with her umbrella and she grabbed Yangs arm and kicked her in the face causing Yang to stagger a bit before Neo kicked her in the stomach knocking her on the ground again.
Neo then flipped around as Yang stood back up and turned and she used shot dust from her gauntlets but Neo blocked with her umbrella and she closed it as she hit Yang knocking her back before opening it again and every time Yang fired some rounds Neo kept blocking them she then held her umbrella to Yang face.
Yang instantly fired another round causing Neo to flip back and she sat on s box while holing her umbrella and she blink and smiled at Yang.
Blake Weiss and Batman and they saw a large white fang member with a chainsaw and the three looked at each other.
"You two go on ahead" Weiss said "got it" Blake said.
"Understood" Batman said he knew that his daughter could handle herself so he didn't worry too much besides like Yang said they didn't have time to waste they need to deactivate the bombs.
The white fang member turned on his chainsaw and Batman Weiss and she nodded and she ran ahead and the white fan grunt swung his chainsaw and Weiss ducked and flip back while Batman swung his staff knocking the grunt back and giving his daughter an opening to attack while he and Blake ran.
Taking the advantage of the opening her father created for her Weiss hit the grunt with her rapier before flipping back and continuing the assault striking the white fang member who managed to block her strikes with the chainsaws but Weiss with her speed managed to strike and knocked the grunt down on the ground.
Weiss smiled at her handy work and so did Blake and Batman as they went on ahead.
"That's my girl" Batman thought as he and Blake went ahead.
The grunt stood back up and laughed "I never thought I get to kill a Schnee who also the daughter of Bruce Wayne" the grunt said as Weiss didn't say anything and pointed Myrnaster at him.
Batman and Blake stopped and narrowed their eyes as they saw Roman "hello kitty cat Bats ya miss me you know we outta stop meeting like this people are gonna talk" Roman said as he swung his cane.
Batman charged at Roman with Blake running behind him and once he got a close distance Roman shot him but Batman turned invisible and dodged the blast. Blake with a couple of stikes knocked Roman into the and Batman who was still invisble struck Roman a couple of times and with one last strike with his staff Roman had hit the ground hard and Batman landed beside Blake and turned visible.
Roman got up and fired two rounds but Blake created a shadow made of stone while Batman turned invisible and dodged the blast while the copy took the other.
Blake went up and jumped over the clone and attacked Roman from above but the thief did a quick swipe at Blake but she dodged it by creating another clone she and Roman clashed a few times with their weapons and with Roman attacking. Blake created a ice clone causing him to get stuck on the ice.
Batman then turned visible and he ran at Roman and gave him a roundhouse kick sending the their flying and he hit the door and landed on the ground.
Roman lost his cane and tried to get up but Batman and Blake stopped him by putting both of their feet on his chest pinning him towards the ground and pointed their sword and staff at him.
"Heh heh come on now is this really necessary and you kitty cat why are we fighting I saw you at the rally we're on the same side and you known it" Roman said that earned his head being bounced back on the ground by Batman with his staff.
"Its time for you start talking Torchwick before you go behind bars" Batman said.
Back to Weiss fight the white fang grunt charged at her and Weiss did a circular motion with her sword and once the grunt attacked with his chainsaw a blue like barrier appeared and blocked the attack Weiss then knocked the grunt back on the ground but he quickly got back up and attacked Weiss again but she blocked the attacked while pinning the chainsaw down and knocked the grunt back with her sword.
She then flipped through the air and kicked the grunt knocking him back once again but he quickly regained his balance and swung his chainsaw at Weiss but the heiress managed to duck under the attack and with multiple strike kocked the grunt back onto the ground.
She rolled over him to get some distance but the grunt got up and continued his assault but Weiss kept dodging and blocking his attacks he then did a kick causing Weiss to jump up to dodge the attack she then used the roof of the train car like spring board to jump down and attack the grunt but he dodged the attack. That didn't stop Weiss as she swung her rapier at the grunt but he managed to block the attack he tried to attack again but Weiss flip through the air creating some distance before striking the grunt sending him back a couple of feet.
Weiss then got into stance and he held her stance and created a time glyph beneath and once it disappeared she charged at the grunt and she created a bunch of glyphs around then jump using the glyps like spring boards and with her enhanced speed she kept slashing through the grunt multiple times and while she was in the air she used a glyph to land on the ground.
She then jumped into the air as the grunt got up "come 're princess" the grunt as he grabbed Weiss by the face and slammed her down on the ground hard creating a crater he then threw Weiss and when he did he swung his chainsaw at her while she was in midair.
Back to Yang and Neo battle Yang was walking to Neo and Neo still had that smug look on her face and when Yang got close enough she punched Neo but Neo did a handstance twirled a bit kicking Yang back she then flip forward and kicked Yang back.
But Yang got back on the offensive and she fired a blast at Neo but the girl only managed to block the blast with her umbrella but Yang punched the umbrella pushing Neo back a bit. The two traded blows for a bit but Neo was actually blocking most of Yang atracks. Neo tried to kick Yang but the blond managed to grab her leg and threw her back but Neo managed to flip back and gain her distance.
But Neo charged and she got on Yang shoulder and with amazing agiltly she managed to grab Yang arm and flung her into the air causing the girl to hit the roof and falling towards the hard and Neo only smiled as she went towards Yang.
"Haha man you really are as brutal as they say Bats" Roman said as Batman hit Roman hard on the throat causing him to cough a bit.
"Don't make this harder on yourself tell us how to deactivate the bombs" Batman said.
"Like I'm going to tell you and has for you kitty cat do you think you really think a little bow going to make people forget what you are what you did what've you done' Roman said as she and Batman looked and sa2 Weiss bring pushed back.
"So what's it going to be Blake" Roman said.
"Knock him out" Batman said as he quickly went to Weiss and for a moment it looked like Batman looked angry for a moment and he charged at the grunt while Blake knocked Roman and went to Weiss. The grunt had swung his chainsaw at Batman who side step and gave the grunt a sending him to the air a bit before Batmat kicked him towards the hard metal wall.
But the grunt didn't have time to recover as Batman pinned him to the wall and brutally punched him multiple times much to the shock of Blake Batman punched him many times his masked had broke Batman stopped when he realized he was unconscious. He looked back at Blake who was still holding Weiss.
"Lets go" Batman simply said as he was leaving the area.
"R-right" Blake said a bit disturbed from she just witness non the less she grabbed Weiss and followed Batman.
Black to Yang Neo took out a knight from her umbrella while Yang was currently unconscious and right when she was about to finish her off a woman appeared from the portal and it looked like she was wearing some sort Grimm mask she quickly charged at Neo and swung her sword causing Neo to barely dodge the attack.
She drew her sword back into her sheath and she looked at Yang before turning her attention back to Neo and she drew her sword again but not before gathering some dust. Neo saw how dangerous this woman was and she had a look of fear on her face so Neo had quickly retreated not wanting to face this woman.
The woman looked at Yang for a bit but at the same time she did a sword slash creating a portal she then drew her sword back in its sheath and was walking towards the portal. But Yang slowly got got up trying to regain conciousness but just for a moment she saw the woman that saved her life leave the area but not pondering for too long Yang left the area as she tried to regroup with everyone else.
Meanwhile on top of the train Ruby and Oobleck was busy dealing with a mech and the mech turned and attack Oobleck who dodged the attack while leaving a trail of fire behind him as he was right beside Ruby. But with his amazing speed he appeared on the mech and shot it with his staff before flipping off of the mech and went to the other side.
Ruby swirled crescent rose around while Oobleck aim at the mech and together on each side they shot a fireball and gun at the mecha causing an explosion and the mecha had fallen off the train.
"Ruby you go on ahead" Oobleck said.
"But" Ruby started to say.
"Don't worry Ruby its time I teach them a lesson" Oobleck said as he went after another mech.
Ruby was about to go on ahead but she saw Zwei wasn't moving and she knew that Zwei didn't want to leave him behind because he gotten attached to the doctor.
"Go" Ruby told her pet and Zwei had barked happily as he went with Oobleck and Ruby went on ahead and that's when Yang Blake Weiss and Batman join her at the top of the train and they saw the train was heading towards a door.
"What do we do?" Yang asked.
Ruby and Weiss looked each other and smirked and Weiss quickly put her rapier towards the ground and created a ice barrier around everyone else and not long after a large explosion sending team RWBY and Batman to the top of the city and alarms was going off and people was staring at them that's when the Grimm came from underground and started attacking people but Ruby had a determined look on her face and she knew what they had to do protect the people and get rid of these Grimm.
