Most were ignoring team CRDL except Ruby, who was keeping a close eye on them, especially Cardin, who had his arms crossed and was looking out the window; his team's mates Russel was asleep while Dove and Sky were messing around on their scrolls. Weiss was rechecking her dust for the 100th time while Blake was reading. Yang and Nora were competing on who thought there could kill the most Grimm; Ren was most silent, shaking his head at how Nora asked while Jaune was. He was trying not to throw up./p

As the doors to the aircraft open, Jaune's team leaves first, well most Jaune running behind the aircraft to toss his cookies while Ren and Nora look on at their fearless leader, shaking their heads. Most of team rwby was about to leave when Cardin got up and patted each of them on the back in a bit of good luck, smiling at them. The girls were weirded out by this and kept walking, not seeing Cardin Deeping smile. The Pilot, in his Groff's voice, tells the team he be back at 5 pm, which gets Jaune to check his scroll and says, "It's 9 am" The Pilot, not amused, just closes the bay door and begins to fly off. A text comes over from Ozpin telling them to each head in one direction and to stay in constant contact; Team JNR and Team RWBY find the message a bit weird till Cardin, in a commanding voice, tells them that there see them at pick-up. As there walk away, Cardin looks over his shoulder and gives Rwby a smile, sending a shiver up her spine. Weiss asks Ruby if she is alright, but she brushes it off. The two teams head off on their own to fight the Grimm. Meanwhile, a mystery person is holding a black scroll, smiling. "Everything is going to plan, and soon the seed I planted will grow and begin to bloom fruit," she chuckles to herself./p

They were killing Grimm, and Ruby was with her close friends and teammates; soon, it was about 4 pm, so the girls took a break, but seeing a large amount of Grimm there, they decided to take watch every 15 mins. Ruby was first on watch duty and figured she could lean against the tree and rest. They're low on dust and many other supplies, so waiting out the last hour is best. Weiss walked over to Ruby, her arms behind her back. "Hey Ruby, you got a moment?" she asked Ruby. "Sure, what is up, Weiss" Weiss begins by asking Ruby if everything is ok and if there is anything I, Yang, and Blake can do. Ruby tries to avoid the answer, but Weiss keeps pushing, angering her. She is about to break when a voice behind them yells, "Grimm coming our way, and there is a lot of them!" yes, Yang was right. A lot of Grimm are charging them. It looks to be about 50 of them with a fix of Lancers, boarbatusk, beowlfs, Beringel and one larger than normal Hound, which surprised the girls as there not face a large hound like this./p

Ozpin said there only be only Ursa and Boarbatusks!" Blake says as she starts working on the Lancer, flying around the girls quickly, "Maybe Ozpin got his info wrong!" Yang said as she finished punching another beringel as two or three surrounded her. Weiss and Ruby work on the Boarbatusk using a combo of their semblance to try and lower their numbers, but it seems there is no end to them. "I do not get it! Where are all these Grimm coming from!" Weiss screams as she keeps fighting; Ruby, on the other hand, charges through and heads for the Hound at the back, thanks to her semblance. She fights with her sniper at the Hound's weak points and even goes for its legs with her scythe as she takes a least one leg, but it begins to regenerate the portion slowly; it makes it charge at Ruby as she uses her semblance to try and get away when out of nowhere everything just slows down. Rwby looks and notices her team members fighting their hardest but also that her semblance didn't activate, that when the Hound spikes tear into her cape and drag her back, the Hound runs around the battlefield before stopping, thanks to Yang, seeing her sister in trouble and punching the Hound. A Loud bang from Yang's Gauntlets, but because of the force from the sudden stop, Ruby fly's forward in the air, giving Weiss just enough time to catch her before she hit the ground, "Thanks, Weiss, I own you on," which cause Weiss, to blush but smile. Blake, in a tired voice, says to her friends, "How can this many Grimm cause all these problems" The girls are wondering how these usually weak Grimm are overpowering the four of them as there surround them, their back up as there try to figure out what to as light comes from the ground which seems to stop the Grimm in their place, "I think the Grimm are scary of the light" Yang says as her hell marry has come. "I don't think that the case Ruby says, still holding onto Weiss," and Ruby was right; what there thought was helping them was nothing more than a trap. The light grows and fills a large area, blocking the girl's vision as it covers them./p

Jaune and Ren give each other worried looks as Jaune takes off with Ren and Nora behind him in hot pursuit, Jaune hoping her friend where ok./p

"Wow, that was weird light; what was that light, you guys" Silence. "Um, guys" She turns around and sees her other teammates are not there. "Um, Hallo! Weiss! Blake! ...YANG!" she began to freak out and ran, trying to see if her friends were around. "What going on? Where are the others and what was that light?" she ponders until a voice from behind goes, "Hey Ruby!" she turns, thinking it's one of her friends, when Wham!/p
p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 24px; font-size: 18px; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px; padding: 0px;" data-p-id="fe95b47bd075a239061c4ee56aa17999"Back with Weiss, Yang, and Blake, as they were in the middle of a fight, the girls that were separated by the odd light were now fighting for their lives with what seemed to be masked opponents. After the light had vanished, the girls were all teleported to different parts of the Emerald Forest. The girls tried to fight, but for some odd reason, their dust, weapons and semblance were not working like something or someone was blocking them. The girls then tried to use their standard battle styles, but the mask fighters knew what they were up to and were gaining the upper hand little by little. But the girls all started to fall one by one. Weiss get stab though the chest by her Opponent sword as the blood covers her pure white clothes the blade is pulled out and she drops to the ground blood leaking from her wound, Blake jumping into the air tries to use the lasso of her gun but her foe halberd cut through and right as she about to land "Swing" her leg is cut off, her scream fill the Forest as the darkness take hold the last thing she see is the foot of the one who took her leg, Yang didn't feet much better then her fallen friends, every punch was paired by the dagger and without her semblance she can't channel her rage to make her attacks stronger and even though her anger keep growing inside, so in a final last effect she jumps into the air and try dive bombing the guy, he side steps as a huge crush is felt though out the forest "Seem you miss" he says to Yang "you can talk I see" Yang replies with a bit of sass in her tone, the man smiles and says "well too bad you die and then will take out your sister next" that did it, he push the ruby button and she charge at the man who ducks and SLASH! Yang turns to get ready for another attack when a "Flop" is heard. She turns to see an ... arm ... her arm. She reaches over and sees her arm cut off by the masked man daggers; a yell of anguish fills the Forest as the masked man stands there. "My, my arm! You cut off my arm!" she yells at the man, who just runs to her, then jumps over her and stabs her stomach with his daggers. "You can sleep now bitch" Yang, either in shock or the adrenaline still running in her body, looks down at the dagger in disbelief. As she looks over at the man, her eyes widen as she goes, "It's you" The man smiles and pulls the dagger out of her as she falls to the floor like a doll with its strings cut./p
p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 24px; font-size: 18px; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px; padding: 0px;" data-p-id="6c4286879dbe4daf69289a080fba8bcf"Ruby is sent flying through the tree from the surprise attack, which leads her to an open area looking over a waterfall. Ruby looked up, blood flowing down her face as the odd man walked out laughing to himself like an insane person. "Who are you, and why are you attacking me!?" Ruby says to the covered man, but he does not answer as he begins to run at Ruby. Ruby tries her semblance again, but it does not work. "That little party trick won't save you, Ruby!" he swings at her with his mace sending Ruby flying toward the cliff; sliding over the edgy, she uses her scythe to catch the edge and catch herself. "Damn it," she screams, looking up at the hoodie man still smiling that evil smile of his; then he does something odd and grabs Ruby's scythe and pulls her up "wwwhat the," she says. She hangs there, wondering why he would save her. Still, before she can finish her thought, the man throws her so hard she leaves go of her Crescent Rose as she slides down on the ground, cuts and bruises covering her body as her red dress has rips and tears. "So, having fun," he says to Ruby in a taunting tone as Ruby tries to stand up, holding her arm as she tries to think of a way out. Still, the man keeps attacking Ruby with his mace and Ruby Crescent Rose, pushing Ruby back again toward the cliff as it seems the man is just playing with her. "Hey! You done yet!" a voice heard from behind them, forcing the man to turn to the voice; three other men came walking toward Ruby's opponent with what looked like three bodies over the new people's shoulders. "So, you three did something right...Good," throw them toward her," pointing towards Ruby. Getting a better look, she sees her friends lying there; what seems like her teammates have been killed as their eyes are closed, "WWeiss? Bbblake? ... Yang!?" She screamed at her teammates were dead. "Ahh, music to my ears" Ruby looked up, tears running down her face as she had hate in her eyes. "Oh, what's wrong? Mad, tell you what? I give you a change," the leading man, who seems like the leader, throws Crescent Rose to Ruby as it lands on the ground. "Come down, take me and my group down" Ruby, in a rage, runs and grabs Crescent Rose swinging it wildly at the four, which there avoid, but the main one hood gets ripped and falls to the ground; this causes Ruby's eyes to widen in disbelief "It's you! But why!" he smiles before removing the rest of the hood as it shows his brunt orange hair "Yep it's me, miss me!" in announces as his smile grows as million questions run through Ruby before she asks, "Why! Why would you do this! You broke the golden rule! The other three stand there before one is brave enough to ask Cardin if its ok to, but Cardin barks back to take the mask off "it won't matter where there going" the rest of team CRDL do as told and take their hoods off. "Now for why I did this, it's easy! Payback for what you did at the festival!" Ruby could not believe her ears, all this! Him not only throwing his future but his team's future for what to get back at her for losing. Ruby looks over her shoulder at her teammates, which gives Cardin just the right moment to change at Ruby; she brings up Crescent Rose to try and block, but from being taken by surprise and her emotions, she doesn't have time. Her Crescent Rose smashed before her eyes, and metal pieces flew around her. As she stares, she does not know her left arm is broken. "Now you know what it's like to lose what you care for," Ruby just stares as a ringing fills her ears as Cardin keeps mocking her. "Cardin!" Sky says, "We got 10 mins! We should finish," Cardin nods as Russel and Dove pick up the other three girls of team RWBY, throwing them over the cliff down the waterfall. Sky waves some liquid all around the treelines. Cardin bends down and leans over to whisper into her ear, "This is all thanks to you, Ruby," to which Ruby does not react. "Cardin! We have to go! We have 8 mins left!" Cardin sneers at Sky as he prepares his mace like a gold club and Strikes Ruby! The last thing Ruby see is Team CRDL turning away to the west towards the airship that will pick them up as many red eyes look towards them from the darkness of the Forest./p

Nora helps Jaune up and glares at team CRDL. While trying to hold Nora back, Ren asks why they're running; Sky, while still running, says, "Looks behind you, and if you are smart, you keep running!" JNR is confused till a roar fills the Forest. "What was that!" Jaune asks as he turns to where the sound is coming from; hundreds or thousands of Grimm are running toward them! "Guys, I think we too" Her other two teammates get the hint and begin to run in the same direction as CRDL. The Grimm change like a stampede crossing trees in their way. Jaune asks Ren to shoot and slash the tree to try and slow them down, which helps till another larger group comes from where JNR and CRDL are running, forcing them to head another way. The group has no choice but to run till a tree fall right where Jaune is, but out of no way, Cardin jumps Jaune out of the way, which shocks everyone./p

Cardin jumped in and saves Jaune; Jaune thanked Cardin as he didn't say anything, just got up and kept fighting; Nora, still giving off murder vibes, helped Jaune up as Cardin nodded and there keep running, "there the airship!" Ren said! They're almost home free, but it's more complicated than a large Pool of green liquid which blocks the group's path to the airship. "It's Acid. Stay back!" Dove yells! When there looked up, there was a Cenitaur! The Cenitaur is a long black Grimm with clawed legs covered by a protective shell; this grim use's a Spitting Acid to fight./p
p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 24px; font-size: 18px; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px; padding: 0px;" data-p-id="f677a8a65cb2a083ae1863ea86d943df""Damn it, where is the ruby team! They're great at close combat," Jaune says, which makes Cardin angry, but he bites his tongue and keeps what he wants to say to himself, "we will have to fight and try to push our way through!" Nora says as she begins to charge toward the Cenitaur; Ren and Nora join in the fight as Cardin stands there. "Tsk, guess we got no choice," Cardin says, "Are you sure?" Russel asks, but Cardin glares before joining in the fight. The fight is tough as even with both teams working together, there not do any damage to the Cenitaur, and it doesn't help. There have to fight the army of Grimm that keeps butting in. When no one is looking, Cardin pulls out the orb he used on team RWBY to take out the Cenitaur. Still, right before he puts it on Executioner, a massive amount of bullets begin to cut down the Grimm army, which takes everyone off guard as there look up. There is a white airship as it keeps firing. "Who is that!" Jaune asks, "Whoever there are, they're giving us a chance to get out of her! Let go!" Ren yells as he has to drag Nora away from the Grimm. Right before he gets on, Jaune screams, "Hey, where is Team rwby!" Team JNR looks around and realizes that in their hazed to get away, there forget about their friends! The Pilot says in a scary but commanding voice, telling them that there have to leave now which Jaune protests, but there is no time, and there have to leave them behind./p

"That little party trick won't save you, Ruby!" he swings at her with his mace sending Ruby flying toward the cliff; sliding over the edgy, she uses her scythe to catch the edge and catch herself. "Damn it," she screams, looking up at the hoodie man still smiling that evil smile of his; then he does something odd and grabs Ruby's scythe and pulls her up "wwwhat the," she says. She hangs there, wondering why he would save her. Still, before she can finish her thought, the man throws her so hard she leaves go of her Crescent Rose as she slides down on the ground, cuts and bruises covering her body as her red dress has rips and tears. "So, having fun," he says to Ruby in a taunting tone as Ruby tries to stand up, holding her arm as she tries to think of a way out. Still, the man keeps attacking Ruby with his mace and Ruby Crescent Rose, pushing Ruby back again toward the cliff as it seems the man is just playing with her. "Hey! You done yet!" a voice heard from behind them, forcing the man to turn to the voice; three other men came walking toward Ruby's opponent with what looked like three bodies over the new people's shoulders. "So, you three did something right...Good," throw them toward her," pointing towards Ruby. Getting a better look, she sees her friends lying there; what seems like her teammates have been killed as their eyes are closed, "WWeiss? Bbblake? ... Yang!?" She screamed at her teammates were dead. "Ahh, music to my ears" Ruby looked up, tears running down her face as she had hate in her eyes. "Oh, what's wrong? Mad, tell you what? I give you a change," the leading man, who seems like the leader, throws Crescent Rose to Ruby as it lands on the ground. "Come down, take me and my group down" Ruby, in a rage, runs and grabs Crescent Rose swinging it wildly at the four, which there avoid, but the main one hood gets ripped and falls to the ground; this causes Ruby's eyes to widen in disbelief "It's you! But why!" he smiles before removing the rest of the hood as it shows his brunt orange hair "Yep it's me, miss me!" in announces as his smile grows as million questions run through Ruby before she asks, "Why! Why would you do this! You broke the golden rule! The other three stand there before one is brave enough to ask Cardin if its ok to, but Cardin barks back to take the mask off "it won't matter where there going" the rest of team CRDL do as told and take their hoods off. "Now for why I did this, it's easy! Payback for what you did at the festival!" Ruby could not believe her ears, all this! Him not only throwing his future but his team's future for what to get back at her for losing. Ruby looks over her shoulder at her teammates, which gives Cardin just the right moment to change at Ruby; she brings up Crescent Rose to try and block, but from being taken by surprise and her emotions, she doesn't have time. Her Crescent Rose smashed before her eyes, and metal pieces flew around her. As she stares, she does not know her left arm is broken. "Now you know what it's like to lose what you care for," Ruby just stares as a ringing fills her ears as Cardin keeps mocking her. "Cardin!" Sky says, "We got 10 mins! We should finish," Cardin nods as Russel and Dove pick up the other three girls of team RWBY, throwing them over the cliff down the waterfall. Sky waves some liquid all around the treelines. Cardin bends down and leans over to whisper into her ear, "This is all thanks to you, Ruby," to which Ruby does not react. "Cardin! We have to go! We have 8 mins left!" Cardin sneers at Sky as he prepares his mace like a gold club and Strikes Ruby! The last thing Ruby see is Team CRDL turning away to the west towards the airship that will pick them up as many red eyes look towards them from the darkness of the Forest./p

Nora helps Jaune up and glares at team CRDL. While trying to hold Nora back, Ren asks why they're running; Sky, while still running, says, "Looks behind you, and if you are smart, you keep running!" JNR is confused till a roar fills the Forest. "What was that!" Jaune asks as he turns to where the sound is coming from; hundreds or thousands of Grimm are running toward them! "Guys, I think we too" Her other two teammates get the hint and begin to run in the same direction as CRDL. The Grimm change like a stampede crossing trees in their way. Jaune asks Ren to shoot and slash the tree to try and slow them down, which helps till another larger group comes from where JNR and CRDL are running, forcing them to head another way. The group has no choice but to run till a tree fall right where Jaune is, but out of no way, Cardin jumps Jaune out of the way, which shocks everyone./p

Cardin jumped in and saves Jaune; Jaune thanked Cardin as he didn't say anything, just got up and kept fighting; Nora, still giving off murder vibes, helped Jaune up as Cardin nodded and there keep running, "there the airship!" Ren said! They're almost home free, but it's more complicated than a large Pool of green liquid which blocks the group's path to the airship. "It's Acid. Stay back!" Dove yells! When there looked up, there was a Cenitaur! The Cenitaur is a long black Grimm with clawed legs covered by a protective shell; this grim use's a Spitting Acid to fight./p

They're great at close combat," Jaune says, which makes Cardin angry, but he bites his tongue and keeps what he wants to say to himself, "we will have to fight and try to push our way through!" Nora says as she begins to charge toward the Cenitaur; Ren and Nora join in the fight as Cardin stands there. "Tsk, guess we got no choice," Cardin says, "Are you sure?" Russel asks, but Cardin glares before joining in the fight. The fight is tough as even with both teams working together, there not do any damage to the Cenitaur, and it doesn't help. There have to fight the army of Grimm that keeps butting in. When no one is looking, Cardin pulls out the orb he used on team RWBY to take out the Cenitaur. Still, right before he puts it on Executioner, a massive amount of bullets begin to cut down the Grimm army, which takes everyone off guard as there look up. There is a white airship as it keeps firing. "Who is that!" Jaune asks, "Whoever there are, they're giving us a chance to get out of her! Let go!" Ren yells as he has to drag Nora away from the Grimm. Right before he gets on, Jaune screams, "Hey, where is Team rwby!" Team JNR looks around and realizes that in their hazed to get away, there forget about their friends! The Pilot says in a scary but commanding voice, telling them that there have to leave now which Jaune protests, but there is no time, and there have to leave them behind./p

She was happy about all the chaos she caused and hoped Cardin enjoyed his gift. "Seems like everything is going to plan, and soon everything will fall into chaos!" she giggled/p
