Since The Gang was successful in saving Team RWBY, and protecting them from the Secret Society, they decided to stay for a while, hopefully to start their campaign. However, they have bigger problems.

"So, Cinder Fall's on the loose…" Blake said, "And she was at Central City, defeated by The Gang, but they ended up fighting amongst each other."

Weiss replied, "Of course, but… Cinder's undefeatable! She has been Salem's right-hand, and with her, she may destroy the world."

Yang asked, "So, what now? We are back together, except that… well… We can't beat Cinder, by ourselves. Even The Gang was overpowered."

Weiss stated, "Yeah… but we have been stronger lately. By the way, how did you turn into a doll?"

Yang responded, "Well, funny story. During my travels, I decided to find you guys, only I got lost. And then I ran into a woman with pink hair, and she offered me pure bliss and Euphoria… but I had no idea it was a Super Drug."

Weiss added, "And that's when you were frozen. The Gang stopped a toxic drug, a psycho ninja, and an obsessed priest… and even stopped Armageddon."

Ruby responded, "While we have our problems of our own… We can trust them for now. Besides, I cannot wait to see you, President Weiss!" She was giddy.

Weiss remarked, "Ruby… We haven't started the campaign yet."

Yang turned on the TV, and watched the news. The UN made the report, "Ladies and gentlemen, after full review of our ballot, Miss Otomegawa overruled 55% of the voting on banning third-party and private investigation agencies in the world. The actual final score is 127 to 76, in favor of outlawing all private agencies. Miss Otomegawa, however, has forbidden us from disbanding any of her certified and sponsored agencies, including newcomers, World Agency."

NOTE: From "Archer: Into the Cold". The score was 172 to 26, but fuck the writers of Archer. If you want them to go, make them heroes, but in a send-off.

Yang asked, "By the way, didn't The Gang used to work for a third-party agency?"

Weiss said, "Asahi told me. They used to be called AAW – Alliance Across the World, until some dweeb named Tony Khan slapped a C&D, under confusion of AEW."

Yang joked, "What's next? Nick Khan of WWE slapping an A.B. C&D on Big E?" Blake laughed, "HAHAHAHAHA! That's an F for effort, Yang." Yang & Blake laughed, as Weiss giggled, "Hm. I miss this."

"Miss what?" Ruby said.

"Nothing."

Ruby sighed, as she said, "Well, we have a lot of work to do. Stop Cinder, get you on the Presidential Train, save the worlds, go back to our world, and be back in time for Vacuo." She turned to the 4th wall, "And don't forget Greenlight RWBY Vol. 10, folks." Weiss chuckled, and she pet her shoulder.

Weiss said, "Anyways, we can trust these guys, since they're government certified. Though, I wish they'd tell us more about Cinder… … … not after long ago…"

Ruby was bummed, as Weiss said, "Hey, listen… … …about Penny…" Ruby said, "No, it's alright. I moved on from her. Not that I'm like Yang & Blake, I mean…"

"She was a great friend. But still… I'm sorry that I never told you abo–."

"It's fine. And long ago… back when we were there… I was unhappy. But yeah… Life goes on."

Yang asked, "Say, I know The Gang is in World Agency, but who were those other members?"

Blake said, "Well, I met three androids. One of them being The Gang's gynoid. But the blonde and pig-tailed ones…" Weiss said, "Speak for yourself. I met a woman that broke into my bedroom, naked."

Farra, Jace, & Kim had lumps on their heads, as Asahi held her fist, "And that was almost botching the mission." To Farra, "YOU for barging in, only in your panties…" to Jace, "YOU for mingling with the enemy…" and to Kim "and YOU for calling me, unauthorized, while I was busy with my part of the mission!"

She turned to Mizuki and said, "And us, too, because we let Zina die, and the enemy escaped."

Peter asked, "How goes Obnubi?"

"Terrible." Mizuki said, "Zina's husk is obtained and protected by MEA, and Enju Saion-Ji will take over Obnubi for the moment."

Jace moaned, "Ma'am, I'm sorry… I didn't mean to do anything that may ruin the mission."

"No, but we know what goes on in the mission, after we almost fucked it up." Asahi stated, showing the images of Zero, Dell, Viper, and Fio. "The Secret Society. This is a new organization… We know that it's just these four, but maybe more. These girls are superhuman, yet they are not human. However, we learn what the motives are for them. They want Team RWBY."

"But we have no idea what and why." Peter said.

Asahi said, "Exactly. That being said, protect the huntresses, at all times. As for Cinder Fall, Strike Force is on the hunt, as we await their findings. Also…" She showed a photo of Chase Craver, "Keep an eye on him. Charles "Chase" Craver. We do not know his motive, but he could be the enemy. A lot of you say he's innocent and a good guy, but I wouldn't say that. He's a perverted pig."

Jace groaned, "Unlike me…"

Kim said, "Miss Sakurai, where are the others?"

Asahi sighed, "Cassandra is being repaired. Mizuki deactivated her, just as we were about to brief. And Riho & January went to recharge. And Naoki, she had to go out on patrol in New York, for a plan. And by the way… speaking of… WHERE THE HELL ARE STEVEN COOKE & OSCAR GOODEN?"

Oscar came and said, "Sorry I'm late…"

Asahi scolded, "My office, after the briefing!" Oscar sighed, "Yes, Asa…"

"YOU will call me Ma'am, Agent Gooden! I will not tolerate your behavior, today! You and Steven!"

"Grr… Yes, ma'am…" Mundy seethed.

Asahi stated, "While Farra, Jace, & Kim almost fucked it up, despite their out-of-book tactics, I am deeply disappointed by Steven & Mundy's role in this mission! We almost failed, if not for their attitude, recently! Plus, running into the same catsuit-wearing demons on the same day, while on the hunt… it somehow derailed us. But as long as Team RWBY is safe, we cannot afford to ruin this."

She concluded, "In closing, we will set up Weiss's Earth Presidency Campaign in two weeks, as nominees are about to be recorded. After Miss Schnee gave us her OK, I signed her up for the spot. However, we'll do what we can to make her image grow bigger for the polls. And also, make sure to protect her, and her teammates, from future attacks from either Cinder or The Secret Society."

She walked off and said, "Dismissed." They left, as Oscar stayed behind. Peter huffed, "Busted." Farra chuckled, "Don't wanna be you right now."

Asahi glared at him, and she said, "Well? Where's Steven?"

"He left, after I walked out." He said, "We didn't return to HQ… so we had time to think. Asahi, I'll take responsibility for my behavior, but we succeeded, didn't we?"

"Not yet. Now that we have a roadblock, we'll have to stop Cinder, before she and the Secret Society could meet. Mundy, I know I'm being harsh, but if we botch this one, we have failed on our first major mission."

"I understand… I am sorry about this."

"If Steven Cooke does return to my office, make sure he comes to me, right away. Now, leave."

Oscar sighed and said, "Bugger…"

Asahi was worried, leaning to the desk, and growled, "We're succeeding, but where are we going wrong?"

Episode 3 – Chapter 1: Hunt for the Society!
The Gang's Pre-Warm Ups!

Blake and Yang were at the lab, as Cassandra was lying on the table, turned off. Blake said, "Whoa… She's a robot…"

Mizuki was working on her cybernetics, as Yang said, "Yo."

Mizuki said, "Oh… You two. Can I help you?"

Blake said, "We want to know how she's doing."

Mizuki said, "She's badly hurt. I am fixing up her cybernetics, and it looks like a very broken cell. Cassie's body may have used her Last Resort, but the damage may have broken her, internally."

Yang asked, "What is her power?"

"Fire. Not only she's a cyborg (like me), she has elemental powers, and she doesn't melt." Mizuki explained, "Unfortunately, her plating may be a problem. I'm doing what I can to save her life and create a Limiter inside her body. Speedwagon Foundation made her this way, missing some important parts."

She turned to Yang, "Perhaps I can examine you, Miss Xiao Long? I know you're human, but I want to examine your arm. Maybe we can work out your cybernetics."

"N-No, that's fine." Yang replied, "I can handle my arm, working fine."

"Serious question, how did you lose it? We never asked, since you were a gynoid shell…" Mizuki offered to ask.

Yang held her arm and said, "I lost it, during The Fall of Beacon. It was horrible… Beacon Academy was attacked by Cinder and her men. White Fang ninjas, even Torchwick, they all attacked the school… And one of them, Adam Taurus…"

Yang is conflicted, as she remembered what happened to her arm. Adam Taurus sliced off her arm.

Yang shuddered, as Blake said, "Of course, Yang & I fought revenge on the White Fang, and we defeated and killed Adam."

"White Fang? Who are they?" Mizuki asked.

"A group of radicals, and they're all like me, Faunus." Blake said, "They used to be a revolutionary faction, until Torchwick and Adam manipulated them, and they became a divided clan – one for peace, and one for war."

"That's terrible. You, Blake?"

"I used to be in them… only they listen to Adam and Torchwick. After a second meeting, before I joined Beacon Academy, the White Fang disappeared. But I can never stay with them… especially when Adam took the reigns."

"Was Adam your ex?"

"Ex, as in partner… or…"

"Never mind." Mizuki said, "Anyways, glad you two survived. And I am sorry about you, Yang. That woman… who turned you into a doll. Was she with pink hair?"

"Yes."

"Does she have big boobs? Purple eyes? And a sweet voice?"

"All yes. However, I wouldn't call her voice sweet, if she was trying to kill me. Plus, she was a ninja, and I thought she'd be a Faunus… because she has a thing for dogs."

Mizuki replied, "Then… … … It's obvious that she's still alive. The woman that turned you into a husk, she's still alive somewhere, but no one knows where she went."

Mizuki explained to Blake & Yang about Oka Kazamatsuri, and how she was able to create a drug that turn people into mind-numbing blissful slaves, only to forget their fears and troubles. She even mentioned that Asahi demolished her to the point of falling to her death. Though, in reality, Oka survived the explosion of her own factory, and fled from World Agency's radar.

Blake growled, "Despicable… She was a psychotic kunoichi, turning her allies into androids, and trying to turn this world into a barren wasteland?" Yang replied, "Since we're here, you can leave the hunt to us. I have a score to set–."

"NO!" Mizuki cried. "Uh, no… Oka Kazamatsuri's dangerous. She may look innocent, but she's very deadly. Plus, if you're wide open, you may become a husk again… this time, for good."

Yang asked, "Soooo… How did I turn into a mannequin?" Mizuki explained, "You have Bodhi Waves, they are simply your life energy, inside a glowing sphere. She can only siphon them, turning you into a robot shell. I can know that, because Cassandra and I were victims to it."

Blake said, "But you survived, didn't you?"

Cassandra woke up and said, "Almost. But Asahi & Mundy saved us… Also, Miss Xiao Long, if you were a mannequin, you'd still be flesh colored. I'll explain later."

Mizuki said, "Cassie, don't talk. You need rest."

"I'm sorry, Mizuki. I tried to help them stop Fio, but I'm just…"

"Afraid?" Blake asked, "It's alright. You were worried about your own life. I know how it feels. Besides, you and your friends helped save me, and Yang, as well."

Yang giggled, "Oh, please, Blake. Cassie's just too hot for her to handle. I'm saying that, because she just doesn't want to burn out."

Cassandra giggled, "I needed that…" Mizuki huffed, "I didn't find that pun, funny. But in any case, I will call Neilsen for advice. After all, he has examined you, Cassie. As for you two, we're to make sure you girls are safe, so you can help Weiss become President. Now, please leave my lab. I don't think you two can be here, when I'm operating on her."

Yang & Blake left, as Cassandra asked, "You didn't have to kick them out. Are you worried they break me?"

Mizuki said, "They're still young."

Weiss grumbled, as she was plotting her next move, "So, if I'm going to be President, I'm going to need a running mate. My VP, if you will."

"Vice President, huh? Well, Earth has a black woman who's a U.S.V.P., why not make yourself unique, as well." Ruby asked her.

Weiss said, "Well, you are team leader, and I want to lead, for once. So, that leaves Blake… and, uh…"

"Hey, I know. Why not Blake?" Ruby suggested, "Simply put, you and Blake were once hated towards each other. Your father hated the Faunus, used them as slaves for mining dust, and Blake hazed everything about your family (among others)."

"That was ancient history, Ruby! Blake and I are closer now. And we don't mean it as that. Besides, my father was racist to Faunus."

"And a total jerk."

"Can you at least use cuss words, Ruby?"

"Do I look 18 yet? NO!" Ruby complained.

"Then say it! My father was an asshole!" Weiss roared.

Ruby was shaken, as she shivered, "W-W-Weiss… You're scaring me…"

Weiss sighed, "Sorry. This world, it's new to me. I never felt so alive! Well, being I'm the oldest of the four."

"Uh, no, you're not."

NOTE: Blake's the oldest (January 19th), while Weiss (May 15th) & Yang (July 28th) are in the middle. Ruby's two years younger (October 31st).

Ruby got up and said, "I'm gonna go…" Weiss said, "Oh, the bathroom's that way." Ruby said, "I know. But I'm not going."

She walked into a small room, as Weiss felt unsure, "Ruby's acting strange. I wish there was more to it."

XXXXX

Mundy was doing target practice, as Ruby joined in. "Hey."

"Ah, Red." Mundy said, "Glad you came by. Wanna join me for target practice?"

Ruby held up Crescent Rose and said, "Sure. But this is for a while. I wanna see how I performed, since last time. Been a long time, since I used this." She turned it into a rifle and said, "SEE? It's also a gun."

Mundy nodded, "Impressive. A Transforming Dual-Weapon."

Ruby said, "It's modeled after my late mother, Summer Rose. She was a brave huntress… and you know…"

"I know your story, only… I wish I knew what was Summer like…"

Ruby sighed and grumbled, "Glad you didn't."

They began a little target practice, as Ruby said, "Say, any way you can build a simulation room, for scythe-wielders like me?"

"I'll see what I can do. Miss Otomegawa owns this building. And she hired us as an agency, rather than freelancers."

Ruby & Mundy finished, as Ruby asked, "Hey. Just out of curiosity… It's about Neo."

"I'm listening."

"She didn't manipulate you or anything."

"Nah. Neo only came to me to get payback for what happened to Torchwick. Now, I know you didn't kill him, and that's fine… but it was coincidental. But we may never know who launched a Griffon onto Torchwick."

Ruby bowed her head and said, "To me, it was me… I somehow felt hurt, when I sensed Penny died… and Grimm can hunt fear and sadness, as if it was wild prey."

"Penny?"

"Penny Polendina… She was a robot, then turned human… and then… gone."

"How'd she die?"

Ruby turned away, and Mundy thought, "I see… Ruby may have been guilty for what happened at The Fall of Beacon. But she knew Torchwick never died."

He said, "You know, at first, I didn't want to hire Neo, because of her past. But she and I had a deal worked out by my boss in ICPO. He said that I have to watch her, like a hawk. And if there is any funny stuff, I'd put the cuffs on her."

"Smart thinking, since you and Neo have been close."

"Neo misses Torchwick. I don't know why, but that beaut's into him. Never mind the minion part… but there was something about Neo & Torchwick that I could never quite understand."

"I don't think it's that." Ruby stated. "I had a run-in with Neo, not long ago. She actually hates me, because of Torchwick. She wants an apology, she's too late. And even if she wants one, it's not my fault, or hers, either. She and Roman Torchwick tried to kill us. He suffered, because he deserved it. But never mind WHO or WHAT caused The Griffon Attack! He's dead! That's all that matters! And Neo needs to move on!" Ruby was furious, and she calmly said, "But if you're attempting to reform her, you're wasting your time. She can never change. Emerald can, but…"

Mundy nodded, "Yeah. Emerald works for me now, aside from the job at the bar. She said she left Salem behind. The organization that Cinder works for."

Ruby responded, "Mr. Gooden…"

"Call me Mundy."

"Mundy… Salem isn't an organization. She's an evil being… from Remnant."

"Bloody hell…"

"And she's practically immortal. Those people you knew that worked for Salem, well, Cinder's included… and the others on her portfolio. Salem's a dangerous entity, and she's halfway there in destroying Remnant… and if possible, your world."

Mundy replied, "She hasn't shown up on our radar, but I have ways. I was skeptical about Arthur Watts' alibi. And Peter mentioned that Salem rings a bell to him, I think. But in all seriousness, Cinder will be stopped, and if so, we may help you stop Salem."

Ruby nodded, "Thanks. And again, sorry if I was trouble, when we first met. Now you believe I didn't kill Roman."

"No… I'm still confused. A Griffon killed Torchwick… but I'm still debating on WHO made the Grimm kill Torchwick, and HOW. It's always a mystery to me…"

Ruby walked off, and she said, "Tell Neo… that I cannot apologize to her. But if she ever decides to change, you tell me. Neo said she was betrayed by Cinder… and when we were alone, she wanted me to find myself."

"How did you and Neo–?"

"You wouldn't understand. At first, I was in grief, in sadness, over Penny… … … and I wanted to not be me, anymore. Neo thought she killed me, but in reality, she didn't. I somehow had some newfound sense within me… and I wanted to just be me, not be like the past. Ruby Rose is her own huntress now… and only because I want to not be like Mom… … … or Raven."

She walked off, as Mundy nodded and smiled, "Ya little cunt."

XXXXX

Yang & Blake were making out in the corner, as Jace & Kim were watching in disgust. Jace huffed, "Ugh… Human-Faunus Relationship. Beastality, people."

Kim scoffed and cried, "GAAAAAAAAY!"

Yang & Blake stopped, as Yang asked, "So? We just wanted privacy. Not like you two made out before."

Kim replied, "We have. We actually first met in prison. Jason actually loves me… and he went to prison just to see me."

Jason said, "Actually, I first met you, long ago, before that party you went to, and you disappeared. Your father didn't like me, because I was a punk… and a foreigner."

Kim said, "But I did get to see you often… and we're lovers now." She blushed, "We actually had sex together, in prison or anywhere. But I'm still young, and a woman has limits."

Blake asked, "You had sex in–?" She blushed heavily. Yang said, "Noice!" she gave a thumbs-up, as Kim barked, "Eat me, lesbo!"

Jace scolded, "Kim, all love is cool. You don't have to berate her."

Kim stated, "I know… But you two are actually into sucking face, like it's been ten years!"

Blake smiled, "Well, it almost was… But the thing is, Yang & I… we…"

Yang said, "Blake's the only person I can love… and someone who loves me, other than Raven."

"Who?" Jace asked.

"My Mom, Raven Branwen. She was my mom, until she walked out on my family. And that was before I met Blake… At first, she was all bitchy and moody, but she has opened up. Not to mention I helped her find her closure, since she's a Faunus, and Remnant has a 50-50 thing against her kind."

Kim asked, "Really? You mean like Blake's Life Matters?"

Blake said, "Not just me… ALL Faunus."

Jace said, "Well… I'm happy that you are in love. But it's weird… How do you have sex with–?"

Yang & Blake ignored him, and resumed making out. Kim hissed, "It's best to not overthink it, Jason…" She waved, "Go for the tongue!" Yang nodded and gave a thumbs-up.

Jason responded, "Normally, it makes me horny… but after their sad story… It's so–."
"Dull? Boring? Uneasy?" Kim asked, "Don't be against their love. I mean, it's weird, but a lot of people believe that it may happen, eventually…"

"WHERE ARE THE NORMAL PEOPLE IN THIS NEW WORLD?" Jace cried in despair.

Miki came back, as she gasped, "Oh, my word!" She saw them kissing, as Miki asked, "Uhhh…"

Jace & Kim stated, "Stay out of this." They walked off, as Miki thought, "I wonder if Ri-San, Yuki-senpai, or Kurumi-senpai ever had that, like those two." She blushed, slowly walking away.

The next day, Weiss was being measured by Cassandra, who was at Casa de Munecas, Farra & Cassandra's workplace outside of World Agency. It was a department store owned by The Martinez Family, once owned by their late mother, Pollyanna Martinez.

Weiss was in a white bra and panties, and Cassandra was writing in her measurements, "Eh-huh… Bueno. It's a perfect fit for your Presidential attire."

"So, how are you feeling?" Weiss asked.

"I'm alright. Mizuki said I have to rest up a while, so Asahi said to take a week off from duty. Gives me enough time to help around the shop. And that World Agency's overstaffed, as it is."

Weiss said, "Then why's your brother looking at me?"

Luther was smirking, as he enjoyed Weiss's company, "An amazing picture of Remnant's Elsa. A picture perfect Disney Princess Knock-Off, but of its perfect beauty… … …well, except the scar, of course."

Cassandra said, "If you want, I can have that patched up."

"No need. I'd keep it as a trophy. It's how I enrolled in Beacon Academy. Atlas Academy was my first choice, but I chose Beacon, on account that I DON'T want to listen to Father's advice. Winter, my sister, actually approves it, but the rest of my family – okay – the rest of my family doesn't." Weiss's arms spread out, and Cassandra measured them, "So, after a blow to the face, I chose not to give up. Father's words cut deep, but I chose not to give up. It was almost like… a story."

Luther asked, "Who was your opponent?"

"It was a practice sparring test, using my Semblance. An Ice Gigas. I was able to defeat it… and Father accepts my offer." Weiss smirked, "And that's how I got the scar. I'm not ugly, you know. Just a small slit."

Cassandra nodded, as she said, "Okay, you're finished." Weiss got dressed, and she said, "Anyways… Where's Miss Stevens? I wanted to talk to her about the color."

Luther stated, "Stick with white and blue." Cassandra nodded, "Blue's her favorite color."

Weiss stated, "Okay… but I want her opinion."

Cassandra pointed at a blonde mannequin in a blue outfit, "She's over there."

Weiss gasped, as the mannequin was Farra. She whispered, "No…"

Luther said, "Farra also works here, so, she's working full-time, if not doing sales or inventory." Cassandra added, "And using a special brooch, you can turn into a mannequin, instantly. Plus, it was Asa's orders, after her Near-naked House Invasion, the other night."

Weiss cried, "You didn't have to go THAT far!"

Cassandra said, "Yeah… Senora's also suspended from duty for a week. Asa's orders."

Weiss grumbled, "I don't believe it… A brooch that turns people into–. That never happens in Remnant!"

Luther held up a cherry brooch and said, "It is what it is. As long as Farra's in one piece, fully built properly, and unchanged, she can return to normal." Cassandra said, "Think about it. If we remove your scar, after you become a mannequin, that can alter your identity… and you could never return to your true self." Luther said, "I learned that, after our recent troubles. Also, try not to break her."

Weiss said, "I see…" she approached Farra and said, "So… if the mannequin shatters, you die. Right?" The siblings nodded in agreement, "Si."

Weiss paused and bluntly said, "Ohhh… kay. I see your point of view. Would you excuse me?" She walked off, hiding in a changing room. She muttered, as she was arguing with herself, "These two are freaks, like something from the 80s… Just who are they… Why did I agree to this? She breaks in my home, and she–. What kind of idiots are they?"

She continued to mutter and argue with herself, as Luther said, "She's a unique character… Perhaps too unique?" Cassandra said, "Oh, I wouldn't mind. Weiss has been a princess. Imagine what a mannequin like her would be like."

Luther said, "We can't. If we turn her into one, chances are, she may die from evil forces."

"Like Cinder…" Cassandra thought. She called, "Weiss?"

Weiss quickly asked, as she calmed down, "YES?"

Cassandra stated, "Would you bring Farra to the back room? And be careful. I'll explain later."

Weiss sighed, as she grumbled, "Can't I take her apart, first?" Luther responded, "You can use a wheel trough. That helps." Weiss sighed, walking in dejection. "I hate this place."

Weiss carried Farra away, as Cassandra said, "I'll meet you in a minute."

Weiss barked, "Don't wait up." as she went to the backroom.

They turned to each other, as Luther whispered, "You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?"

They grinned evilly, "Let's."

"He still hasn't come back?!" Asahi cried, as she was at her desk. She was agitated that Steven Cooke hadn't returned.

Peter said, "I tried calling him, but he answered and said that he can't come back."

"What did he say to you?"

"He just needed some private training. He's flattered that he wants to meet Team RWBY, but after what happened with Ruby Rose, he needed to grow stronger."

Asahi said, "It's got to be them, isn't it?" He said, "By the looks of it, yes. Those freaks from a hornet's nest are way strong! Dude, even I can't land a crack on them! And these girls are like Titans!"

Asahi said, "Well, I'm sending you and Riho on patrol next. You two can get to know each other."

"Why can't Farra or Cassandra do it?"

"Cassandra needs a break, while Farra's suspended."

"What did she do?"

"You heard me, when I scolded her. She stripped down to just her panties, broke in and met with Weiss Schnee, and almost traumatized her! THAT'S NOT RIGHT!"

He asked curiously, "So, while I was getting Blake, we didn't miss much?"

She growled, "What's there to miss?" She stated to Peter, "I want you to tell Steven Cooke to get his ass in my office, first thing tomorrow! OR ELSE!" She sighed, as Peter said, "Why don't you stop acting like a bitch, and calm down?"

Asahi gasped, as Peter said, "Look! Once you talk to him, there's no going back! We almost died back there, from four unknowns, and a psycho Fire Maiden! Now don't say you are Scarlet, beca–!"

"Oh my gawd, I'm turning into Scarlet Riley, am I?"

"Yep…"

Asahi said to Peter, "It doesn't matter. Just bring Steven back. I want to talk to him. We know we almost messed up, but that's okay. Team RWBY's on our side now. And we're just getting started." She showed a banner that says "Schnee/Belladonna 2024". "And already, the polls are coming in, after the announcement of Weiss."

"And? What are our chances?"

"It's only the beginning…" Asahi showed the polls. Weiss Schnee's polls are at just three percent. "We're doomed." Asahi then sobbed, even mentioning the negative reviews about Weiss.

Peter sighed, facepalming himself, "Gimme a fucking break…"

XXXXX

Farra was in pieces, as she was taped inside a box. Cassandra said, "There. I'll bring her back, once the week's up." She felt sad, as she packed up the box, "I'm sorry, Farra. I don't know what's gotten into Asahi. Also, I don't know what happened to Steven & Mundy, since…"

Farra's voice calls out, "It's alright. It's just that we're in a bit of a predicament. Besides, I wanted to get away from this drama. Steven Cooke can handle things himself. I can't stop him."

"Yeah… But what about me? You worry about me, too."

Farra said, "It's alright, Cassie. I know you work hard, but don't break yourself. I cannot lose you."

Cassandra was sad, and she whispered, "Senora…"

She opened the box and reassembled Farra. She was only in her light blue panties, and with her long hair over her breasts, posing with her arms out. Cassandra wrapped plastic around her and placed a sign that says "DO NOT USE". She then said, "You care for me, do you? I care for you, too, amiga. So, I won't be unhappy. Rest easy, Farra. I won't go away…"

She placed the brooch down, next to her, and locked the door. Farra remained in mannequin form, as a request from Asahi.

Weiss entered the backroom and asked, "Excuse me… What are you doing with Miss Stevens?"

Cassandra said, "Nothing. Oh, Weiss, can you do me a favor, while we prepare for your first campaign?"

Weiss said, "Anything." She smiled, as Cassandra had a Snowflake Brooch behind her. Cassandra grinned from behind her back, and she thought, "I am curious…"

Peter & Riho were patrolling New York, as Riho was nervous, "So, you think they show up in New York?"

"Positive. However, Cinder Fall may reemerge. Keep on your toes. The moment we see Cinder, we run, and alert Asahi."

Riho said, "No. We track her down, and learn her next move."

"Why say that?"

"If we spot her and leave, we'd miss out on it, if she relocates. Perhaps we may track her down."

They headed to the suburban area, and Peter stopped, sensing a disturbance. He kneeled down and said, "Stay back." He felt his hand on the ground, and he glared, knowing that someone has arrived.

"Persistent whores." He growled, as Riho gasped, "The Secret Society?" He nodded, and they prepared.

A woman in long blonde hair appeared, wearing a gray suit and skirt, with a red demon mask. Peter's eyes widened, viewing her. The woman said, "Hello there… The Gang."

"You with The Secret Society?"

"Correct." She spoke. "I happen to be my master's second-in-command."

He viewed her cleavage, and showed that she has lines above her breasts; faint lines, like scars. Riho said, "She's an android…" Peter said, "And worse… I recognize your boobs…"

The woman in the mask chuckled, as Peter glared, "I don't know who you are, but I think I know someone of your model number and factory-inspected plastic ass!" He pointed at her and shouted, "YOU'RE RAN KUZURYU!"

She removed her mask, showing her green eyes and said, "Now, you spoiled the surprise… but you already know that… ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Peter thought, as he was shocked, "Ran Kuzuryu? The Real Ninja Android of Money Cash?! She's alive! BUT HOW?"
