Team RWBY Dorm (Day)
Breathing slowly and clasping his hands together, Russo addressed his younger sister's Team as calmly as he could. "Let me see if I have this right. You want to directly attack the single most famous, or infamous, terrorist organization in Remnant simply because you think some big conspiracy is happening?"
The nervous looks on Yang and Ruby's faces were priceless to behold. The male blonde approached his fellow Leader and patted her head softly.
"You two are definitely my sisters." he said with a smile, making Weiss, Blake, and Ivy all sweatdrop.
"Thanks, Russo. Now, let the investigation BEGIN!" Ruby proclaimed.
"I'm glad we're taking this SO seriously." Weiss said sarcastically.
"Hey, we've got a plan. That's...moderately serious." Yang said.
"Yeah. And, if everything goes to sheep, you can just blame the person who made the plan in the first place." Welter added.
"Okay... Everyone remember their roles?" Ruby asked.
"You and I will head to the CCT and check the Schnee records for any other Dust robberies or inconsistencies." Weiss said. "Seeing as I'm in the family, it shouldn't be a problem."
"The White Fang has regular faction meetings to hand out orders and recruit new members." Blake informed. "If I can get in, hopefully I can find out what they're planning."
"Just be careful. After what happened at the docks, I REALLY don't think they'll be welcoming." Welter warned. "Try wearing something to mask your scent. Once they know you're there, well, you get the idea."
"I have an old friend on the shady side of town that typically knows everything going on in Vale." Yang said.
"Didn't you blow up his nightclub?" Sapphire asked, remembering a news report about a club that was torn to pieces by an unnamed blonde girl. It wasn't hard for him to figure out who the culprit was.
"Yeah! That's why getting information out of him will be so easy." the girl explained, making her siblings face-palm.
"We'll meet up at Junior's tonight to go over what we learned, got it?" Ruby asked, to which everyone nodded.
"Welter and I will join Blake. I don't feel right leaving her alone at what is basically a 'Terrorist-Con'." Russo said.
"I appreciate the sentiment, but won't Welter be recognized as a Schnee? Even if you got past that, you're humans." Blake asked, curious as to what the blonde was thinking.
"This isn't the first time I've had to sneak into places without being noticed." Russo said with a grin. "Did I ever tell you about the time I managed to sneak onto a Bullhead as it was leaving?"
"Then Ivy and I will join Ruby and Weiss. I'm not going with Yang to tear down a broken-down nightclub, and I'm certainly not going with my brother to storm the enemy's front door." Sapphire said, making up his mind.
"Okay, then. Let's do this!" Ruby exclaimed, pumping her fist.
"Yeah!" a new voice said from outside the window. Turning their heads as fast as they would go, they saw a familiar blonde Faunus hanging from his tail.
"SUN!?" everyone barring Russo screamed. The pyromancer still didn't remember his former ally, and likely wouldn't ever remember him.
"How the hell did you manage to get all the way up here? This is the third floor!" Ivy asked.
"Aw, it's easy. I do it all the time!" Sun said, unknowingly putting him on three separate hitlists.
"YOU WHAT!?" Welter and Russo said at the same time, their eyes glowing brightly.
"I climb trees all the time." the Faunus clarified, ignorant to the burning gaze Russo gave him.
'I'm watching you, whoever you are. Always watching.' he thought as his newest toy for target practice jumped into the room.
"So, we finally getting back at that Torchwick guy?" Sun asked.
"No, we are. You go home." Sapphire said sternly.
"Sorry Sun, we don't want to get friends involved if we don't have to." Ruby explained, apologizing.
"That's dumb. You should ALWAYS get friends involved. That's why I brought Neptune." Sun said, gesturing to the window. The rest of the group looked out and saw the blue-haired boy holding onto a ledge for dear life.
"Sup." he greeted.
"How did you even get up here?" Ruby asked.
"I have my ways." Neptune explained mysteriously. "Seriously though, can you let me in? We're like...really high up right now."
