After a bit of convincing on Ruby and Yang's side, team RWBY was out looking for Blake. They even got Weiss finally to stop complaining, though her mood wasn't improvable.
"Bla-ake! Where are you!" Ruby shouted, a hint of concern in her voice.
"Bla-ake!" Yang shouted, trying to help her sister find her teammate.
Weiss scowled. "Maybe we should try calling the police?"
Ruby scowled back at Weiss. "What?" Weiss said, defensive. "It was just an idea."
Ruby rolled her eyes. "Yeah. A bad one."
Weiss continued prattling. "I am just simply shocked that we had a terrorist hiding right under our noses!"
Ruby sighed. "I just hope she's okay."
Suddenly, Penny came around the corner and nearly knocked Ruby over. "What are you all doing on this fine day?" the overly excited girl asked.
Ruby sighed. "We are looking for our friend Blake. She kind of ran off last night without saying anything."
"Oh, you mean the Faunus girl!" Penny responded.
Ruby looked at her in surprise "Wait, how did you know she was a Faunus?"
Penny gave Ruby a no duh expression. "The CAT ears."
Yang looked confused. "But she wears a bow. Oh!"
Later that night, Blake and Sun were staking out by the docks. "You hungry?" Sun asked. "I stole you some food."
Blake scowled at Sun. "Do you always break the law without a second thought?"
Sun gave Blake a teasing look. "Hey, weren't you in a cult or something?" Blake gave him an ultimate consume excrement look. "Sorry, too soon?" Sun said, smiling weakly.
Suddenly, helicopters approached and landed. Roman stepped out of the biggest helicopter, waving his walking cane around. "Hurry up and attach the cables. If you hadn't noticed, we aren't exactly the most inconspicuous bunch of thugs around."
Blake was taken aback. "Wait, something is not right. The White Fang would never work with a human, especially a human like HIM." Blake jumped off the stack of shipping containers, untied her bow, and snuck up behind Roman. She grabbed him, putting her sword to his throat. "Brothers of the White Fang, why are you aiding this scum?"
Roman smiled. "Didn't you hear? The White Fang and I are going in on a joint business venture together."
Blake then tightened her grip, the razor sharp blade of her sword barely grazing his neck. Roman struggled, and a small trickle of blood dripped from his neck down the blade of her sword. "If you don't tell me what you're doing, I'm going to put an end to your little operation."
Roman smiled. "I wouldn't exactly call it a 'little' operation." Blake looked up and with that diversion, Roman pointed his cane gun at Blake's feet and fired.
On the other side of Vale on Main Street, Ruby was talking with Penny since her friends ditched her soon as they realized Penny was going to help in the search.
"So, is Blake your friend?" Penny asked.
"Yes, Penny," Ruby said, slightly annoyed.
"Are you mad at her?" Penny asked
Ruby sighed. "Yes, Pen-" Ruby said, then reconsidered. "Well, no. Actually, Weiss is."
"Is Weiss friends with Blake?" Penny asked.
"Well, that's kinda up in the air right now," Ruby said, throwing her hands up in the air.
"Why is that?"
"Well, you see, Blake might not be who we thought she was," Ruby responded.
Penny then jumped the proverbial gun. "Is she really a guy?"
Ruby jumped at the level of her assumption. "No, of course not-"
Suddenly, an explosion on the other side of town rocked the ground so hard that Ruby and Penny fell to their knees.
"Oh no. I have a bad feeling. LET'S GO!" Ruby shouted as she started running towards the source of the explosion, Penny close behind her.
Back at the shipyard, Blake stumbled from the shot. Roman attempted to tie up this 'loose end' only to be interrupted by a banana peel to the face.
"What the-" he exclaimed.
"Let me cut you off before we exceed the K+ rating," Sun smiled. "We are already barely getting away with it, anyway." Sun jumped into the fray of things.
"Stop monkeying around and get him!" Roman shouted, and in response several White Fang members mobbed Sun.
"How is this for Monkey business?" Sun asked, pulling out a staff and pole-vaulted over on top of one enemy and kicked him in the face, using the force from that kick to smack his staff across the face of another White Fang member while simultaneously kicking another in the face. He then pole-vaulted off the other Faunus's face and kicked another White Fang member in the knee cap, then roundhouse kicked him across the yard to Roman's feet.
Just then Roman shot at Sun, and too fast for the human eye to comprehend, Sun's staff knocked the bullets out of the air and transformed into two sets of Gun-Chucks. As soon as he had his Gun-Chucks, he immediately switched from a defensive strategy to an offensive one. He fired his weapons just as the barrel of each gun came eye level with Roman's face. In a two second period of time, he dropped at least fifty shells. Roman continued trying to hit Sun with a dust shell, and eventually, Roman's mediocre aim hit Sun in the gut, hard.
Blake got between them and used her semblance to lodge Roman's cane inside an ice shadow, which she promptly used to her advantage and kicked Roman across the yard into a shipping container.
Just then Ruby and Penny showed up on top of one of the stacks of containers. "Ruby, is that your friend?" Penny asked.
Roman turned his head towards the sound. Ruby looked at Penny worriedly. "Penny, get back!" Roman fired his cane gun at the distracted Ruby.
Ruby went flying and without a word Penny walked off to protect her friend. "Penny, don't, you might get hurt!" Ruby said, concern saturating her voice.
"Don't worry Ruby, I am combat ready!" Penny announced. She jumped down, swords emerging from her back. The swords levitated, hacking at anyone who came at her, even though she didn't touch a single sword. With a powerful hand gesture, Penny stabbed her swords into the side of a shipping container, picked it up, and threw it at a ship.
The ship exploded with many a Wilhelm scream. As one of the choppers tried to get away, Penny thrust her swords into its hull, and with another impressive hand move, she sent it flying into several shipping containers of dust, resulting in more explosions and yet more Wilhelm screams.
Another chopper tried to take off, but Penny gathered her swords into a circular configuration right in front of her, spinning them quickly. A laser gun formed in the space between the spinning sword circle and Penny used their combined power to split the ship in half mid-flight.
Ruby just stood there, lost in awe. "How is that even possible?" Ruby asked, mostly to herself.
In the ensuing chaos, Roman climbed into a chopper, making his escape. "Man, these kids just KEEP getting weirder!" 898Please respect copyright.PENANAdXuyNqMAED
