Chapter 12 WOOHOO finally got this one out. I honestly don't know what I want to do with Cinder's character I don't want her to be oh generic early boss. Summer fate will be left undecided for now I have something in mind for her and the direction I want the story to take but ultimately don't know what route I want to take on this one. Axel like with Summer i already have an Idea for and it involves Pyrrha heavily, but I won't say more I am a little upset no one caught my JOJO's Bizarre Adventure reference in the last chapter of Naruto using the Old Joestar tradition of running away i actually rewatched that scene multiple times to ensure I could make the Joke makes sense. But anywho onto the chapter nothing extra this one so lets go.

Chapter 12: Brothers and Fathers
Xemnas opens his eye, looking around into the chamber that the Organization held their meeting with all in attendance. He looks around briefly at each member as they await a response to question to the one person on the ground a tall middle-aged man with a slim build and slightly tanned skin. He had short black and gray hair as well as a thick mustache and eyebrows, and green eyes. He wore a grey overcoat with yellow linings, a yellow dress shirt, and a black necktie. His pants were the same color as his overcoat. His yellow-buttoned undercoat and fingerless gloves matched his shoes, under which he wore yellow socks.
"And that being said Xemnas, Lady Salem finds it paramount that we expedite your help on this most sensitive matter." The Man said glaring slightly at Xemnas who looked at him with a amused smirk.
"Is that so, Doctor Watts. I understands the need to retrieve the relic, you seem to forget the agreement we have made with Salem in the first place." Xemnas said looking at the now named Doctor.
"I completely understand the so called deal you have with lady Salem however..." Watts began before being cut off by Xigbar.
"However you seem to think we should thank her for allowing us to be in her presence that right doc?" Xigbar said smirking at the man ask turns his glare on him.
"Now listen here..."
"And why should we listen to you, our agreement was with Salem not with the likes of you." A member stated making a snap as 6 lances dances around Watts.
"As it stands we have been keeping up our end of the bargain." Saix stated stoically with the lances withdrawing from Watts. "But if you wish to end our partnership here and now then so be it."
"That is not what I am saying at all, but recent events have come to my Lady's attention and she would like insurance." Watts said looking to Xemnas once again.
"Salem will have our support as always, but make this clear to her, we will only stay aligned as long as our goal are one." Xemnas stated as Alpha and Bravo come into the room. "Please escort the good Doctor out of the room."
"This is not over Xemnas you hear me." Watts growled out storming out of the room.
"Good Riddance." The Lance member stated dismissing his lances.
"A shame really I had hoped our talk with Doctor Watts would be more Academic in Nature." Vexen stated dishearten. "Oh well."
"Sheesh and the old hag is still on our necks about Blondie and his keyblade." Larxene stated rolling her eyes.
"Hmph, one should not underestimate the power the Keyblade especially if it is commanded by Ashura's reincarnation." The Card playing member stated playing with his cards.
"Oh really well the brat hasn't been real helpful ever since he got his." Larxene said looking annoyed.
"Menma has only recently tapped into his keyblades abilities." Xemnas said gaining the other members attention. "Once he realizes the keyblades true potential he will almost on par with the Brothers power."
"And since we have the kid wrapped around our little finger we basically invincible." Xigbar added looking smug.
"And what if Menma realizes his connection to Salem." Saix stated looking to Xemnas. "He could turn against us if he was to learn his Connection to the witch."
"In time we will deal with that, but for now we will move forward and retrieve the relic so desired by Salem and us." Xemnas said as Summer eavesdropped behind the door her eyes widening at what she heard. She then summoned a portal and ran through with no one noticing.
Passing by Beacon Academy a large and unnerving ship begins it descent on a landing pad as two Bullheads fly by the top of the tower veiled behind clouds. Ozpin and Glynda watch through the window into Ozpin's office as swarms of people fill the pathways of Beacon.
"Ironwood certainly loves bringing his work wherever he travels." Glynda commented seeing the commotion below
"Well, running an academy and a military makes him a busy man." Ozpin said as three more Bullheads fly in. "But yes, those are a bit of an eyesore." A chirping beep then sounds repeatedly. Ozpin turns to see a hollow-message "Access Requested" on his desk. "Come in."
The door to the elevator in front of Ozpin's Desk stepping into the room was a who wore a white overcoat, with a gray undercoat, black sweater, a red necktie and a white glove on his right hand. His suit pants shared the same color as his overcoat and were tucked into silver boots accented in gray. His hair was black, with some gray areas, while his eyebrows were solid black and had a strip of silver metal above his right eyebrow.
"Ozpin!" The man said cordially as Ozpin stands at attention.
"Hello, General." Ozpin greeted.
"Please, drop the formalities." The man said both men approach each other and shook hands as Glynda approached. "It's been too long. And Glynda! It has certainly been too long since we last met."
"Oh, James!" Glynda said giving a personable wave and then drops all pleasantries and turns to Ozpin. "I'll be outside."
"Well, she hasn't changed a bit." James said as Goodwitch leaves the room.
"So, what in the world has brought you all the way down from Atlas?" Ozpin said as he turns to his desk picking up a mug and a kettle, pouring as he speaks he then turns and offers the cup to Ironwood. "Headmasters don't typically travel with their students, for the Vytal Festival."
"Well, you know how much I love Vale this time of year." James said producing a canteen from his inside coat pocket and pours its contents into his mug. "Besides, with you hosting, I thought that this might be a good opportunity for us to catch up. And what Father can be to far from his only Daughter." Ozpin walks around to his desk, kettle and a new mug in hand.
"I can certainly appreciate the quality time between friends and between family, however, a small fleet outside my window has me concerned." Ozpin said as he walks around to his desk, kettle and a new mug in hand then sits and pours himself some coffee.
"Well, concern is what brought them here." James said as he looks to his fellow headmaster.
"I understand that travel between kingdoms has become increasingly difficult." Ozpin said as James gave him a hard look.
"Oz, you and I both know why I brought those men." James said.
"We are in a time of peace. Shows of power like this are just going to give off the wrong impression." Ozpin said taking a drink and then sets down his mug.
"But if what Qrow said is true..." James said as he puts down his mug.
"If what Qrow said is true, then we will handle it tactfully." Ozpin said emphasizing this as he holds up an index finger. "It's the Vytal Festival. A time to celebrate unity and peace. So I suggest that you not scare people by transporting hundreds of soldiers halfway across the continent."
"I'm just being cautious. For the Safety of the Kingdoms and for my daughter." James said looking down to the crowd below.
"As am I. Which is why we will continue to train the best Huntsmen and Huntresses we can." Ozpin stated looking to James.
"Believe me, I am." James said as he turns and walks away. He stops near the door and looks back at Ozpin. "But ask yourself this: Do you honestly believe your children can win a war?"
"I hope they never have to." Ozpin said as James leaves the room.
"You might as well come out now it's just you and me." Ozpin said aloud as a portal opened up as Summer stepped out with her hood up.
"We need to talk Ozpin." Summer said looking to the headmaster.
"Do we now and about what I gather." Ozpin said looking at Summer as she pull off her hood startling him as she reveals who she is. "S-Summer."
"It has been awhile Professor, we have a lot to talk about." Summer simply stated with Ozpin looking at her intently.
Naruto and Robin walk through the halls of Beacon going to the library to catch up to with Team RWBY and JNPR. Sasuke received notice that his Brother Itachi may be arriving to beacon soon and Sakura decided to head back to the dorms wanting to get some sleep.
"Man all theses Atlas guys sure do know how to make an entrance huh." Naruto stated resting his hands behind his head as the two continued to walk.
"I guess, but remember me and Weiss are also from Atlas you know." Robin retorted giving Naruto a sharp look.
"Case in point when I met both of you it was in grand fashion with Weiss causing a explosion and you by crashing into me." Naruto stated as Robin blushes in embarrassment at what he said.
"S-shut up stupid Naruto." Robin Stuttered in embarrassment.
"You could never handle when somebody was making fun of you could ya Sis." A voice called causing the to to turn and see teenager with unruly brown hair and light brown eyes, he wore a black leather bomber jacket with a fur trim collar and a v-neck white shirt, black pants with three interconnecting red belts, and black boots and gloves. He has a silver stud in his left ear and wears a silver chain necklace with a Griever pendant and a matching ring.
"Nathan?!" Robin said in shock as she looked at the young man then ran up and gave him a hug. "You actually came."
"Well it is the Vytal Festival why wouldn't I be besides gives me an excuse to catch up with my little sister." Nathan stated as he held her close. "That and the old man is here as well so of course he dragged me across the globe."
"Dad is here..." Robin said to herself as foot steps can be heard as another man came up to them a tall man with a muscular build. His long silver hair has bangs parted to either side of his face and also has green cat-like eyes . He wore a long black coat with silver pauldrons, black boots and black trousers. The top of his coat is open to reveal his chest, with leather suspenders crossed over it.
"Hello, Robin it has been awhile." The man said in cold tone his cat like eyes staring at Robin creepily.
"Professor Sephiroth..." Nathan said gaining the mans attention. "Was there something you needed?"
"No Nathaniel there wasn't I was making sure everything was squared away with the other students before reporting to your father." Sephiroth stated as he began to walk away. "It was good to see you again... Robin."
"That guy was unsettling." Naruto said watching the Man walk away.
"Yeah but he is one of Atlas' Best Huntsman, sorry about that names Nathaniel Ironwood friends just call me Nathan and this dummy's big brother." Nathan said holding out his hand to Naruto as the blond shook while Robin stood there puffing her cheeks out at the dummy comment.
"Naruto Xiao-Long, her partner." Naruto said continuing to look at Nathan. "Wait Ironwood as in General Ironwood of Atlas Academy?"
"Yeah me and Robin's old man." Nathan said as Robin looked away. "She hasn't told you about us hasn't she?"
"No not at all. All I knew is her dad is in the Atlas Military, not the guy that is running it" Naruto said as he turned to Robin.
"It wasn't important I mostly did not want to be treated differently just because of who my Father is." Robin said looking up to see Ironwood standing there with a sad smile.
"And I'm glad you are honoring your mother's memory by taking her last name, Robin." Ironwood said gaining everybody's attention.
"General." Nathan said as James him a curt nod as he turns and widens at the sight of Naruto.
"Your Tai's son aren't you?" Ironwood asked walking up to the blond.
"Yes sir?" Naruto answered unsure on how to respond.
"I just want to thank you for watching out for my daughter and continue to do so for the Future." Ironwood said shaking Naruto's hand.
"Of Course I will always have her back." Naruto said as Ironwood gave a thankful nod.
"Thank You. Now if you boys could excuse me. I wish to speak to my daughter." Ironwood said with Nathan narrowing his eyes but nodded in compliance.
"Alright welp time to find Weiss." Nathan said beginning to walk away.
"Here let me show you me and Robin were going that way anyways." Naruto said catching up to him.
"You seem to made good friend in him." James said gaining Robin's attention once again. "Yet there is something more?"
"There is nothing Dad, I know you are not wanting to talk to me about boy issues." Robin said giving her Father a hard look. "Professor Ozpin told me about my powers."
"So he did, did he." Ironwood said narrowing his eye's.
"Why wasn't I told about my powers." Robin yelled glaring at her father. "What, not enough to keep your precious weapon in the loop that she has magic powers is that it."
"You are not a weapon. Never have and never will be a weapon to me you are my daughter and sometimes it's the Parents job to protect their children from things they don't fully understand." Ironwood said as Robin continues giving him a hard glare.
"Protect?! You basically imprisoned me when my powers emerged, always dictating where I could go and who I can see." Robin yelled with tears spilling from her eyes.
"Robin everything I have done though it may seem unfair..."
"Unfair!? Unfair is when something happens that is out of your control, you stole my childhood from me." Robin interrupted her father who just looks down.
"Yes I did but that is because it was the only thing I could of think of to protect you." Ironwood said placing his hand on his daughter's shoulders. "Above all else I love you and I was scared I would lose you like I did your mother."
"Well Dad looks like your fears comes true." Robin said backing away from Ironwood then ran off down the Corridor.
"Robin!" Ironwood called out to no avail as Robin continued to run.
Jaune walked down to the library with his favorite comic book hand to meet up with the of his team, when suddenly Robin crashed into him sending them both to the ground.
"Wha, R-robin hey are you alright?" Jaune asked in concern as he can see that she was crying.
"No I'm not alright I'm sorry to run into you Jaune but I really want to be by myself." Robin said as she got up and began to walk away as Jaune grabbed her hand.
"Hey I know I'm not super cop like Naruto but you can talk to me." Jaune said pulling her suddenly into a hug without warning surprising the girl. The two stayed there for a couple of minutes as other students walked on by as neither seemed to want to let go of each other.
"S-sorry don't know what came over me." Jaune said letting Robin as she blushed.
"N-no worries it felt nice I actually needed that. thank you Jaune." Robin said with a smile then leaned down to pick up Jaune's Comic. "Were you heading to the library?"
"Y-yeah I was gonna meetup with the rest of my team." Jaune said taking the comic from Robin's hands gently. "Do you want to come with?"
"Yes, I think I could use some relaxation after what has happened." Robin said then the two made there way to the library.
"Hmmmmm... All right... All right!" Ruby said pointing at Yang. "Yang Xiao Long, prepare your kingdom for battle!"
"Bring it on!" Yang said thrusting her elbow down as she balls her fist.
"I deploy the Atlesian Air Fleet!" Ruby cried out as she slaps her card down on the table. Yang feigns a look of shock. "Looks like I get to fly right over your Ursai and attack your walls directly!"
"You fiend!" Yang cried out feigning indignance as she points at Ruby. 'Sorry sis, but for the prosperity of my kingdom I must defeat you here.'
"And since Atlas is part of Mantle, my repair time is only one turn." Ruby explained as she ducked at one end of the table then peaks her head up. She gives a look of surprise as Yang starts laughing arrogantly.
"Pretty sneaky, sis, but you just activated my trap card!" Yang said as she raises a card.
"Whaaat?!" Ruby said looking visibly disturbed.
"Giant Nevermore!" Yang yelled as she slams the card down on the table. "If I roll a seven or higher, fatal feathers will slice your fleet in two!"
"But, if you roll a six or lower, the Nevermore will turn on your own forces!" Ruby said as she points at Yang.
"That's just a chance I'm willing to take." Yang said as the two glare at each other.
Team JNPR are shown as Yang and Ruby banter on about the game. Ren and Pyrrha are studying, and Nora's snot bubble inflates and deflates as she sleeps when then Yang releases a triumphed cheer.
"Nooooo! My fearless soldiers!" Ruby cried for the "Fallen soldiers" that have fallen.
"Eh, most of them were probably androids." Yang said with a shrug of her shoulders
"Goodbye my friends, you will be avenged." Ruby whispered out with a clenched fist.
"Not until I draw my rewards! Which are double this round thanks to the Mistral Trade Route!" Yang said as she pulls cards from a deck on the table.
"Bah!" Ruby cried out.
"Oh. Have pancakes." Nora murmed as she snores and talking in her sleep.
"Oh, and what's this? The Smugglers of Wind Path?" Yang said pulling out another card
"Bah! Bah, I say!" Ruby continued to cry out
"I say, it looks like I'm taking two cards in my hand!" Yang said confidently as she takes another two cards.
As Pyrrha reads a text book, a Nevermore player piece is tossed over Pyrrha's shoulder. Another piece bounces off of her head.
"Have you no heart?" Ruby groaned out collapsing on the table. "Nooo!"
"Well, Weiss, it's your turn." Yang said turning to the heiress.
"I have... absolutely no idea what's going on." Weiss said confused on what is evening happening.
"Look, it's easy! You're playing as Vacuo which means that all Vacuo-based cards come with a bonus." Yang said as she slides up besides Weiss and puts her hand on her shoulder.
"That sounds dumb." Weiss said as she said this Jaune and Robin who was greeted by the formers team but ignored by RWBY.
"See, you've got Sandstorm, Desert Scavenge... Oh, oh!" Yang explained as she starts looking through Weiss' cards she then pulls up a card to show Weiss. "Resourceful Raider! See, now you can take Ruby's discarded Air Fleet..."
"Nooo!" Ruby cries interrupting Yang.
"... and put it in your hand!" Yang finished explaining.
"Okay." Weiss said still unsure.
"And since Vacuo warriors have an endurance against Natural-based hazards, you can use Sandstorm to disable my ground forces and simultaneously infiltrate my kingdom!" Yang said as she points a finger at Weiss. "Just know that I will not forget this declaration of war."
"And that means..." Weiss says as Yang pulls away and returns to her seat.
"You're just three moves away from conquering Remnant!" Ruby cried out as Weiss stands and a thunder clap accompanies Weiss' overjoyed psychotic laughter.
"Y-yes! Fear the almighty power of my forces! Cower as they pillage your homes and weep as they take your children from your very arms!" Weiss cheered out.
'She really is getting into this isn't she?' Robin thought to herself looking to her friend with a sweat drop forming.
"Trap card..." Yang simply said holding up a card.
"Huh?" Weiss said confused on what just happened.
"Your armies have been destroyed." Yang said as she shuffles the pieces on the board, with Weiss' pieces disappearing in a puff of smoke.
"I hate this game of emotions we play!" Weiss whined out slumping in her chair as Ruby hops into Weiss' lap.
"Stay strong, Weiss! We'll make it through this together!" Ruby said giving Weiss a hug.
"Shut up!" Weiss said hugging Ruby back. "Don't touch me!"
"Alright Blake, you're up!" Yang said putting her arms up behind her head.
"Oh, um, sorry, what am I doing?" Blake asked not paying attention.
"You're playing as Vale, trying to conquer the Kingdoms of Remnant!"
"Right." Blake said.
"Hey! Can I play?" Jaune asks approaching the table.
"Hey Jaune, but sorry we've already got 4 people." Ruby apologetically said to the Blond.
"Besides, this game requires a certain level of tactical cunning that I seriously doubt that you possess." Weiss said smugly.
"Uhh, you attacked your own naval fleet 2 turns ago." Yang said causing Weiss to give her an annoyed look.
"Bring it on, Ice Queen! I'll have you know that I have been told that I am a natural born leader!" Jaune said confidently.
"By who? Your mother?" Weiss asked.
"A-and Pyrrha! As well as Robin!" Jaune answered pointing to both girls.
"Hello again!" Pyrrha said waving while Weiss gave Robin a 'are you serious stare' who just gives a girl a nod.
"Come on, let me play your hand for a turn!" Jaune said pleading with Weiss
"I'm not trusting you with the good citizens of Vacuo!" Weiss said sharply
"Why not? You've trusted me with way more important stuff before. I mean, you told us all that Blake is secretly a Fa-" Jaune began before both Robin and Pyrrha darts over and slaps a hand over Jaune's mouth.
"Fun-loving person, whom we all admire and respect." Pyrrha said nervously while Robin nodded and Jaune laughed nervously.
Everyone then turns to look nervously at Blake who looks obviously annoyed that her secret is out.
"Right. That. Ladies, enjoy your battle." Jaune said bowing as Pyrrha and Robin return to their seats.
"'Sup losers." Sun said appearing out of nowhere holding his fingers in a "peace" sign.
"Hey Sun!" Ruby said as the blue haired boy from earlier is standing with Sun.
"Ruby, Yang, Blake... Ice Queen." Sun greeted with narrowing his eye's at Weiss.
"Why does everyone keep calling me that?" Weiss asked looking to everyone.
"I think cause you act kind of cold to everyone Weiss." Robin said looking up from her book.
"What I am not cold to anyone." Weiss said defensively with everyone in the room giving her a dull stare.
"Anyways, I never got a chance to formally introduce you to my old friend." Sun said geturing to the boy next to him.
"Uhh, aren't libraries for reading?" The boy asked.
"Thank you!" Ren cried out throwing up his arm as Nora popped her head yelling about pancakes.
"Shut up. Don't be a nerd." Sun said as Naruto and Nathan walked into the room only being noticed by Blake.
"Geh, geh, geh, geh! "Intellectual", okay? Thank you." The boy said shaking a finger at Sun then proceeded to wave "I'm Neptune."
"So Neptune, where are you from?" Weiss asked looking at Neptune.
"Haven." Neptune said approaches Weiss. "And I don't believe I've caught your name, snow angel."
Suddenly a hand was placed on Neptune's shoulder as he turns to see Nathan standing there with a dark smile on his face.
"Are you trying to flirt with my psuedo little sister?" Nathan asked keeping his smile on his face as Naruto walked past him to be near Blake.
"Uh no?" Neptune said taking a step back then proceeded to run away. "Pleasure to meet you."
"Nathan." Weiss said narrowing her eyes at the man. "Why did you do that? He was just introducing himself."
"Uh huh he just wanted to introduce himself." Nathan said walking over to Weiss then proceeded ruffle her head causing her to swat his hand away.
"Yes know my pain Weiss, of the older brother figure ruffing up your hair you spent hours on." Ruby said smiling.
"I would let him ruffle me anytime." Yang said with a sly smirk taking in Nathan's Appearance causing him to shift slightly being uncomfortable.
"Right, well, I think I'm done playing actually. I'll see you guys later." Blake said shoving Sun aside and leaves the room causing Naruto to chase after her.
"Women." Nora said shrugging.
In Team RWBY's room. The night sky can be seen through the window as Blake sits with her knees folded to her chest on her bed thinking on what happened at the docks.
'Brothers of the White Fang, why are you aiding this scum?'
'The White Fang and I are going in on a joint business venture together.'
Blake then thought back to when Professor Ozpin talked to her after the incident then suddenly a knocked came from the door. Blake got up from her spot and walked over to the door opening it slightly to see who was there only to see Naruto standing there looking back at her as she finished opening the door.
"What do you want Naruto?" Blake asked already knowing why the blond was here.
"I came to check up on you that was kind of cold, what you did to Sun back there." Naruto said walking into the room.
"I'll apologize to him later about it." Blake said giving her boyfriend an almost exasperated look. "Was there something you needed?"
"Blake, I am worried about you and it hurts me seeing you like this." Naruto said reaching for her hands as he caresses them lightly.
"Naruto, I am not trying to hurt you, but you have to understand something big is going on and no one is doing anything about it." Blake said as she pulls away from him and stares at the broken moon.
"I get that something is going on but there nothing a bunch of Students can do, like it or not we don't have the experience to be able to handle something like this." Naruto said back looking at Blake intently. "Look there's another reason why I am here."
"And that is?" Blake asked turning back to Naruto as he began to speak the rest of Team RWBY walk into their dorm room.
"Ugh, we should have never let him play!" Yang growled out as she closes the door.
"You're just mad cuz' the new guy beat you! See, if you had just attacked when I told you none of this would have happened." Ruby said shrugging her shoulders.
"Nathan is the son of General Ironwood of course one would think he would be adept in strategy." Weiss answers looking to blond.
"Yeah well, it's a good thing he is cute otherwise he would be intolerable." Yang said crossing her arms in a huff.
Blake and Naruto try to move out of the room to resume their conversation.
"Stop." Weiss said pointing at Blake. Blake's hand retracts from the door knob as the couple look to Weiss. "Lately you've been quiet, antisocial and moody."
"Uh, have you met Blake?" Yang said giving Weiss a dull expression.
"Which I get is kind of your thing, but you've been doing it more than usual! Which quite frankly, is unacceptable! You made a promise to me, to all of us, that you would let us know if something was wrong!" Weiss said flipping through the air as six copies of her emblem fly through the air. "So, Blake Belladonna, what is wrong!?" She points her finger at Blake again while balancing precariously on a chair's back feet. She quickly puts the chair away and returns to stand near the girls.
"I just, I don't understand how everyone can be so calm." Blake said sorrowfully as Naruto places a hand on her shoulder which she grabs.
"You're still thinking about Torchwick?" Ruby said approaching Blake.
"Torchwick, the White Fang, Menma and Axel, all of it! Something big is happening and no one is doing anything about it!" Blake said causing everyone in the room to look at each other.
"Ozpin told us not to worry. Between the police and the Huntsmen, I'm sure they can handle it." Yang said sitting down on a bed.
"Well I'm not! They don't know the White Fang or my brother like I do!" Blake said looking at the group.
"Your brother is one thing Blake, but the White Fang is an entirely different beast." Naruto said giving his two sense.
"I understand that, but we don't know why he and this so called Organization is after or how they are involved with all of this." Blake said turning to Naruto.
"Okay, between blowing up nightclubs, stopping thieves, and fighting for freedom, I'm sure the four of you think that you're all ready to go out and apprehend these ne'er-do-wells!" Weiss said gaining everyone's attention.
"Uh, who?" Ruby chimed in confused at Weiss was saying
"But let me once again be the voice of reason. We're students! We're not ready to handle this sort of situation!" Weiss said causing Naruto to nod his head.
"Weiss makes a great point girls." Naruto said siding with Weiss on this.
"Well yeah, but..." Ruby began before being interrupted by Weiss.
"We're not ready!" Weiss reiterated.
"And we may never be ready! Our enemies aren't just going to sit around and wait for graduation day." Blake said as she points at the door. "They're out there, somewhere, planning their next move, and none of us know what it is, but it's coming! Whether we're ready or not!"
"Okay, all in favor of becoming the youngest Huntresses and Huntsman to single-handedly taking down a corrupt organization conspiring against the Kingdom of Vale... say aye." Ruby said raising her hand and does other random gestures, while looking like a manic.
"Yes! I love it when you're feisty!" Yang said as pumps her fist enthusiastically and points at Blake.
"Well, I suppose it could be fun." Weiss said relenting.
"None of you said aye!" Ruby said dejectedly but then turns to Naruto. "Are you in Naruto?"
"No..." Naruto said simply.
"Alright then, we're in this together! Wait what do you mean your not in?" Blake said as she and other members of team RWBY look at Naruto.
"I'm not joining you for one very simple reason. You don't need me." Naruto said giving all of the girls a hard look. "And to be quite honest you guys shouldn't do this. I mean we only won at the Docks because of Penny if not for her I don't think you guys would of won."
"But aren't you curious about this Organization after you I mean come on bro, we got this." Yang said giving him a determined look.
"Look I am not gonna stop you guys from doing this, but it also means I won't be bailing you guys out of this." Naruto said. "My team and I are gonna be busy for the next few weeks, so you won't see me around when you hatch this plan of yours. All I ask is that you will be safe. All of you."
"We will." Ruby said.
"Is there any doubt." Weiss answered.
"Just make sure you take care of your self." Blake said lovingly with Naruto giving her a loving smile.
"Let's hatch a plan!" Ruby said giving a gesture.
"Yeah!" Yang said giving "Double-guns" at Ruby.
"I left my board game at the library!" Ruby said gasping as she freaks out.
"We're doomed." Weiss said placing her hand to her head.
"I'll be right back!" Ruby said running out of the room and down the hallway without looking slams into something. "Oo-oof! Oh g-! Sorry. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." A calls out revealing it to be Emerald as she offers offers her hand. "Just watch where you're going." Ruby nods as she takes Emerald's hand.
"Oh, right, sorry." Ruby says as Emerald helps her to her feet. "Um, I'm Ruby! Are you new?"
"Visiting from Haven, actually." A voice answers back as Emerald turns as steps away as Cinder approaches with Mercury in tow along with another girl she had long red hair in a pony tail, violet eyes that had seemed to have a hint of blue in them. The Girl wore a black, trench coat-like, sleeveless dress with small armored pauldrons on her right shoulder and a red and black gauntlet on her right arm she also had black tights covering her legs and combat boots.
Ruby stares for a moment and Cinder stares back then turn her attention to the red haired girl looking at her as if she knew her from somewhere.
"Ooh! You're here for the festival! But exchange students have their own dormitory." Ruby said brushing here self off.
"I guess we just got turned around." Mercury said with a shrug and a smirk.
"Hey, don't worry, it happens all the time." Ruby says as Mercury and Emerald plus the girl walks past Ruby. "Uh, your building is just east of here."
"Thanks." Cinder says as she walks past Ruby. "Maybe we'll see you around."
"Yeah, maybe!" Ruby said to the four as they continue to walk away, then begins to wave at them. "Oh, uh, and welcome to Beacon!" Cinder grins evilly and her eyes glows menacingly as they continue their walk.
DUN DUN DUUUN yeah going little bit heavy here apologies to everyone for such a delay I have had a series of unfortunate events play out that have kind of changed my life for good and mostly worst. My Aunt who was fighting with Pancreatic Cancer for well under a year passed away I shit you not days after I posted the last chapter and it hit me and my family pretty hard then also for the world to say "hey I know this but just happen but" then my grandfather passed away from heart failure not even two weeks after my aunt it was a heart breaking time cause I lost 2 of my biggest supporters. of course i got passed it but then lost my job in February to bullshit that I'm not gonna get into. any who yes Sephiroth he not gonna be a main antagonist I'm gonna make this clear he is no where as strong as his actual counterpart but again i have a plan for him and yes I decided to show Arthur cause I wanted to show that the Organization and Salem group excluding Cinder and Salem herself don't like the organization. And Yes if you don't figure it out the girl is Kushina making her the clone of Naruto and Pyrrha she will be much like her counterpart but different in regard her outfit is loosely based on Xion's out fit at the end of KH III but with added mix cause I couldn't think of anything else. any who hope yawl enjoyed the chapter see ya in the next one...
