Roman Torchwick was having one helluva time. First, his plans were foiled by the same red-hooded teen that kept on getting on his nerves for the past days and weeks. Even though it was cute at first, now that he ended up in this state, he could feel nothing but rage and annoyance to the red-hooded teen. That wasn’t all, he was now alone without Neo in a place he goddamned knew nothing about. Sure there were signs of technology here and there, what with the flying airships that he saw flew above him in this alley, but the real problem is that he had no idea how he ended up here. Last thing he remembered was that a floating girl threw a bubble to his head, the next moment, he woke up in a dark alley in the middle of this town. But worst of all, he lost his fedora!
Sure, he can tolerate being separated from his subordinates. Sure, he can tolerate being sent to who knows where which he knew nothing about since he’s been in this situation for more times he can count on his fingers. But losing his fedora? That was the last straw!
‘Once I find that brat, I’ll make her pay,’ thought Roman with furrowed brows. But for now, he let that thought go as this time he had to analyze his situation to know what to do next. Being the head of an underground syndicate, he knew the horrors of being on the badside of one. Even if he had no consideration to go against one, but that’s not to say they won’t try to do something to him just because he’s an annoying fly.
Walking out of the alley with his confident stride and tobacco in mouth, he found himself on a concrete road, with numerous pedestrians walking about, doing their own business. He was baffled to see this sight. Never in his mind would he find a city such as this. Being the head of a crime syndicate had its perks, like with information coming to him all over Remnant, so naturally, he had information about towns and cities all over Remnant. But this, this town was a whole lot different.
There were cars running here and there, but it had different designs than to the ones back in Remnant. He also assumed that the cars here ran using a different type of energy source rather than Dust.
It fascinated him so deeply. If he could get his hands on this tech, he might be able to create a prolific business back at home. It could also help him in his plans to get his revenge on little red and that floating girl.
‘But not now,’ Roman grinned as he thought about torturing little red in his own sadistic way. ‘There’s a time for everything, and I’ll make sure to get back at every suffering I got from you, red.’
Roman continued on his leisure walk – it looked like a leisure walk to some other passerby’s – and tried to gather information he could see with his own eyes. He saw a sign saying “Welcome to Piltover” in a shop across from the street, an antique or souvenir shop probably.
‘I guess this makes this town Piltover,’ Roman thought. ‘This town wasn’t in any part of Remnant, but so what? I’ll just continue to survive, like always.’
‘Now that I know the place, I’ll have to find some means to grab some cash. Stealing is a no go. I don’t know what I’m up against here.’ Roman tried to think of a plan. He was right in being cautious, as the next moment, he heard a huge siren, as well as an explosion coming off in the distance. While other civilians ran away from it, Roman took this as a chance to learn some more information. The closer he got, the louder the sirens and explosions got. And when he was close, he heard some maniacal laughing.
“What the hell?” spat out Roman in shock. In front of him, a girl with short, pink hair about 1.7 meters tall stood chasing a hair with blue hairs in twintails. The one laughing was the ggirl with blue hair, wearing an outfit that covered most of the important parts, if she had any on the top at least. On her shoulder, she held a giant rocket launcher shaped like a shark, while hanging on her waist, a pink gatling-gun.
The pink-haired girl though had huge metal arms, probably covering her flesh ones. She wore a metal breastplate on her chest, and on her back, something like a mechanism that pumped something into her suit or arms.
“JINX!!” the pink-haired woman shouted in a rage.
“Catch me if you can!” while the blue-haired girl, presumably Jinx, just ran while laughing maniacally. While she ran, she dropped some kind of weird, bear trap robots on the ground, but this did nothing to impede the pink-haired girl. She charged through it and closed the gap between Jinx and her in a moment, but before she could grab her, Jinx nimbly dodged and tapped the forward of the pink-haired girl.
“C’mon Vi!” the girl energetically continued tapping the pink-haired girl, or Vi, with her finger. “That’s no fun! Try and catch me if you can!”
And then, she leapt off of Vi and used her rocket launcher to fire a rocket into the air, but then she did something unexpected. She latched onto the rocket as she continued laughing.
“ANDDD LIFFTTT OFFFFFFFFF!!!” the girl screamed in joy as she launched right into the air.
“Damn it Jinx! Get back here!” Vi shouted in complete and utter rage as she scaled the buildings using her mechanical arms.
While all this was going on, Roman spotted a girl on a rooftop. He wasn’t able to get a clear picture of her since there were too many obstacles between them, as well as distance, but he could make out a gun, probably a sniper rifle aiming towards the rocket where Jinx launched off.
The next thing that happened was that a bullet travelled at supersonic speed and hit the fast moving rocket dead-on. Whoever she was, she was great with her aim, and Roman didn’t want to mess with her. The rocker burst into flames, but Jinx however just nonchalantly hopped off and fired another rocket with her rocket launcher and rode it into a building.
“YAHHOOOO!!!” then a huge explosion occurred, as well as the falling of debris.
“… Is this town perhaps crazy?” Roman muttered in complete shock while leaving the premises and finding another place to scour for information.
[-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-]
In Atlas, one of the control rooms as well as meeting place of several executives, General Ironwood and Ozpin were having a talk. With his favorite coffee mug that miraculously survived the fall of Beacon in hand, Ozpin went forward with the discussion.
“So you’re telling me that a huge monster destroyed Beacon Tower?” Ozpin asked. They weren’t able to talk about this back in the bullhead since Ozpin was rather tired from fighting Cinder, that, and he was exhausted, so they postponed this topic for the morning.
“That’s correct Ozpin,” Ironwood sighed as he brought up some pictures related to the incident last night. “Apparently while you were under the vault, this huge monstrosity appeared from the sky and landed near Beacon Tower.”
With that, Ironwood replayed some footage of the monster wreaking havoc on the grounds, as well as witnessing it bisecting the tower in one swift slash, along with the huge dragon Grimm.
“If not for something that fell out of the sky, all of the students there would have been massacred by its sword,” Ironwood feared what would’ve happened if not for that something. Losing Hunters and Huntresses were bad enough, but students? That’s taking it a bit too far.
“I see,” Ozpin muttered with an anguished face as he sipped some more coffee from his mug.
“For now, it was stopped, but if it was able to break free, then pandemonium could spread all over Remnant,” Ironwood enlarged the picture depicting the golden statue of Aatrox about to land with its sword swung in mid-air. “And you know what would happen if it was able to break free.”
“I know, Grimm, multitudes of them,” Ozpin sighed with a tired face. If pandemonium spreads, negative emotions would also be spread en masse. First Salem, then that floating girl, and now this monster called Aatrox? What has Remnant gotten itself into? Was this some sort of ploy from the two brothers? Or was this perhaps something that happened because of another? He had no end to his questions so he bottled it up for now since there were no answers.
“Ozpin, I know this might be ridiculous, but we must use the Relics.” Ironwood stated.
“Hmm…” Ozpin thought hard about Ironwood’s proposal. With all this chaos going on, Ironwood’s plan had some thought into it, but using the Relics is just as dangerous as letting Salem killing one of their maidens. If they were found to use a Relic, then Salem would do everything to take it away from them once she knew where it is.
“Ozpin please, we have no choice here,” Ironwood pleaded with a tired face. He had been up all night trying to think of a plan to fight that monstrosity in which even the top of the huntsmen had no chance of winning, and the Relics were their best bet.
“…” Ozpin really did think hard about this. But he had to settle on a compromise. His main mission was still to fight back Salem and unite humanity after all. “All right, but that’s our final option. I have another plan.”
“What plan?” Ironwood asked with a hint of anger. Just like Ozpin, prioritizing the Relics first before safety to fight against Salem, but he had to hear him out first. If it could prevent both that monster as well as Salem off their backs, then it’s a plan worthwhile.
“You remember that purple man last night? Ryze was his name I believe,” Ozpin recalled the events last night. “As well as you saying that our worlds were merged into one?”
“Yes, I most certainly do,” Ironwood nodded, but then realized what he meant “You’re not thinking about –”
“Yes, I am thinking about that,” Ozpin cut off Ironwood. “If that monster was living in their world, then I suppose their world have beings on par with that monster. If we could just bring them to our side, then we won’t have to use the relics.”
“You have got to be kidding me right now,” Ironwood clutched his head in exasperation. “First that monster and now you want to bring another one of those with similar strength here? What do you think would happen if that being turned on us while allying itself with that monster?”
“Then we would have no choice but to use the Relics,” Ozpin stated a matter of fact.
Ironwood was stunned speechless at Ozpin. He really had no words. Just to not use the relics, he would endanger Huntsmen and Huntresses to go on a, what is probably a suicide mission? Ironwood really had no words right now. If at all, just bubbling rage and confusion.
But before it could burst, cold water was poured down on him.
“Hi, sorry we’re late,” Ruby entered the room along with her team and the others, Yasuo included.

“Land ho!” a Demacian soldier shouted with a voice that could reach the entire ship. Garen who was in his quarters quickly headed outside and gave out commands to prepare to dock. The ship slowly made its way towards the land while avoiding the reefs, and shallow spots. Once they were close enough to the shore, the soldiers propped up an incredibly long and thick plank, and had it placed like a bridge connecting the ship and the shore. Of course, before all this happened, they set down the anchor to avoid letting the ship drift away.
“Good job,” Garen praised his soldiers for the job well done. “For now, I want everybody on the shores for a quick sortie. Leave 5 men on the boat for security.”
“Sir!” the soldiers saluted with their fists on their chests and quickly got ready to sortie, while leaving 5 soldiers that were knowledgeable about how to manage a ship behind. Once all of them were on the shores, they stood in formation, with 5 rows and 7 columns. All of the soldiers stood in attention with their weapons sheathed.
“As you all know, this land is uncharted lands for Demacia,” Garen started while he addressed all of the soldiers in formation, as well as back in the ship because of his booming and deep voice. “But we will not falter because of the unknown! We are Demacia! A nation proud and strong! Whatever obstacles and enemies life hurls at us, we will persevere, for we are Demacia!”
“For Demacia!” the soldiers cheered in triumph as they raised their weapons high above their heads. Their loud cheering alerted the men on the ship and they started cheering as well. But most of all, another person also heard their cheering below deck, locked inside within the confines of a prison.
“Brother, I’m so sorry…” Lux cried as she recalled all of their happy memories together. If not for having the power of mages, she could’ve lived a life of happiness with her family and friends. And now for the first time in her life, she started to loathe her own magic. Even if she was a bundle of optimism and positivity, when she saw the face of her brother looking at her with dread, her will shattered. She could do nothing but weep, but she also had no regrets, as she was able to save them from impending doom. But that didn’t change her dread towards her own magic.
A few minutes later of wallowing in sorrows and isolation, footsteps were heard coming closer. Lux perked her head up above her knees and looked beyond the bars made of petricite. When the figure got closer, she saw that it was her own blood brother, Garen Crownguard.
“Luxanna,” Garen called out to her still having doubts and feeling dread, and Lux responded by standing up and moving closer to the bars and facing Garen with a sorrowful look on her face. When he saw this, he felt an aching pulse in his chest. “Please, tell me what I saw last night was a lie.”
Garen wanted to believe that Lux’s power last night was a fluke. He wanted to believe that Lux was not a mage that he loathed so much. He wanted to believe that Lux used something like an item that conjured that ray of light was used just so he can come to the conclusion that Lux wasn’t a mage.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
But Lux just held her head down, and nodded her head side to side. This confirmed Garen’s suspicion, and dread once again came back to cover him in his grasps. He wanted to release Lux from this prison and let her tag along, but a part of him tells him to lock her up and bring her back to Demacia for judgment.
“Brother, please don’t cry over me,” Lux reached out her hand and placed her palm on Garen’s cheek as she wiped away tear in his eye. This startled Garen as it was a long, long time ever since he cried. “Do what you have to do.”
Lux said with a smile as she wiped another tear flowing down Garen’s cheek. If she could see her face now, she would notice that her eyes were like a dam that burst. Garen continued on looking at Lux with her face full of sorrow, pain, and fear. And this resolved him.
He took the key out from his pocket, and unlocked the cage. Once he opened it, he told Lux, “Please Luxanna, run away from here. Never return to Demacia because I don’t know what I’ll do.”
Garen spoke in tears as he held Lux close to him and brought her to a hug, a hug that may be their last. Lux reciprocated the hug and they stayed like that for a few seconds while tears continued flowing down their eyes.
Once they were done, the both of them returned up deck and onto the shores. The soldiers looked at Lux with confusion, pity, and dread. While they loathe mages, they can’t help but pity the sister of their captain for being a mage. They made way for them and once the two were out of their encirclement, Garen spoke up to Lux while handing her a bag full of food, water, and other necessary necessities.
“Luxanna, my sister, I bid you farewell. I hope that wherever you are, you’ll be able to find happiness,” Garen told her in his usual stern, but caring face. Lux nodded then set out for the wilderness and forests in which they don’t know what lies beyond. Although he knew what dangers might lurk beyond, he knew, Lux would be able to take care of herself. She is after all, a Crownguard, and his little sister.
“Not a word of this from now on, understood!” Once Lux was out of sight, he spoke out towards his men behind him with his voice.
“Yes, sir!” the soldiers saluted and went back to their duties. In a few hours, they’ll be able to continue their expedition.

East of Runeterra, just below Ionia in the map, the Noxian fleet continues to sail onwards to their destination, Vacuo. Swain was located in his quarters, doing his usual thing like planning, thinking, or just resting. But what he was currently doing was using his power to conjure a demon eye above Vacuo, scanning for anything that may be a detriment to their expedition, as well as a benefit. He noticed that there were some Vastayas here and there, so he was surprised that there humans and Vastayan were living in coexistence.
“I guess not all places are racist after all,” Swain muttered. He was half-wrong, half-correct, but that didn’t change his mind to continue their expedition.
While Swain was busy observing Vacuo, outside the deck stood Darius. He oversaw all of the work in this particular ship. That and he, was also responsible for reigning in Kled. Of all the jobs he could get, he got a babysitting job. It was actually okay for him to babysit anyone, but Kled? That’s another story.
And even now, Kled continues to yell out belligerently towards the Noxian soldiers, and all of them are having a hard time because of it. Darius facepalmed at the deranged and insane Yordle, as he continued to keep an eye out for Kled and his antics.
The expedition was still going on strong and proud.

Back in Piltover, Ezreal could be seen sneaking off again, towards the docks and on a boat. When he got there, he noticed that Jayce was already onboard.
“Yo Jayce! Kept ya waiting long?” Ezreal started off with his usual banter.
“Nah, not really. Just tweaking some of the parts and we’re good to go,” Jayce responded while doing some tweaking here and there. Ezreal got on board and placed his stuff within a storage compartment.
“So, this new land, when did you guys learn about it?” Ezreal asked Jayce while he plopped down on a bench.
“Some time ago I heard Prof. Heimerdinger say something about a new land,” Jayce replied with a smile as he looked at Ezreal with a beaming grin. “I know this is your kind of thing, exploration and all that, but we scientists also need some more information about, well, you know what I’m getting at.”
“Right, right, I heard ya,” Ezreal spoke out as he lied on the bench and napped for a little while longer. A few minutes later, he woke up to the sound of a revving engine.
“And we’re good to go!” Jayce dusted his hands off and took of his gloves. “With the latest tech in this boat, we won’t get lost, and even if it is far, we would be able to reach the new land in about 2 – 3 hours.”
“That fast?” Ezreal asked with an expectant look on his face.
“Yes! After all, Hextech is the future!” Jayce nodded proudly as he stepped on the gas. The boat they were on was a type of speedboat that could run on fuel and magic properties. It could even convert into a sail-type boat to conserve fuel.
And with that, Ezreal and Jayce set off to the horizon towards the new land.

In the icy North of Freljord, a huge commotion was spreading through the icy lands. The size of the land was increased! And no one knew why or how it happened. So they had no choice but to investigate.
Ashe and Tryndamere, as well as their tribes were trekking through the ice. It took them about a day of trekking before arriving at a new place. In the horizon, a huge wall could be seen. But in their journey to here, they encountered some new beasts with black skin, and a somewhat white mask, though this did nothing but impede their journey. There weren’t even any casualties in their tribes when fighting off those strange beasts.
“Tryndamere, do you see what I see?” Ashe gazed at the huge wall while she held hands with her husband.
“Hah! Walls don’t mean anything to me!” Tryndamere let out a hearty laugh with his coarse voice. Ashe just sighed with a tired expression.
“For now, let’s have the tribes set up camp here,” Ashe commanded the tribes of both the barbarians and Avarosians to set up camp. “You and me however, will have to check that wall.”
“I understand,” Tryndamere nodded with his usual gaze. For some reason, he was getting his blood pumped. “I wonder if there is anyone strong in there.”
“Life is good no?” a huge figure stood behind them with his signature moustache. “But I see no poros! Where are the little ones?”
“I don’t know, we are treading on uncharted lands here,” Ashe stated a matter of fact. “Anyway, Braum, you want to come with us towards that wall?”
Braum nodded with a smile on his face. “You might need protecting. I follow.”
With that, the trio then left the camp and headed towards the huge wall, towards the city of Mantle. But because of the low visibility and snowstorm, they weren’t able to notice the huge floating island just above Mantle.

“Yay!” Ruby couldn’t let go of her excitement.
“Ugh, settle down Ruby, you’re too noisy,” Weiss reprimanded the noisy Ruby. “Besides, I get what you’re feeling, and also, I want to leave this place right now.”
Weiss really wanted to leave this place. The reason being that she did not want her father to know she was here. While they met up with Winter, she expressed that she didn’t want to let her father know she was here, lest he does something to bring her home.
“Lighten up Weiss-cream,” Yang had a smile because of her pun. “I totally agree with Ruby on this.”
“She’s not wrong you know,” Blake added while her bow twitched.
“Ruff!”
“Hiii!!” Blake screamed in terror as she quickly used Yang and Ruby to shield herself from the tiny dog. “What the heck is that doing here!”
Blake pointed towards the dog that could be mailed using an envelope disregarding all laws of physics.
“Aww, don’t go hating Zwei because you’re a cat Faunus,” Ruby just hugged Zwei to her chest as she snuggled on the cute little dog.
“That has everything to do with me being a cat Faunus!” Blake roared as she took a step back as the dog stepped towards her. Suddenly, Zwei leapt towards Blake, and Blake had no choice but to run for dear life.
“GET AWAY FROM ME!!” Blake and Zwei entered a game of tag as they ran down the hall.
“Well, that was a punny situation huh?” Yang grinned as she earned the groans of her teammates.
“Well anyway, let’s go head towards the mess hall for now. That meeting had me hungry,” Ruby held her stomach as it growled. The both of her teammates agreed as they followed Blake and Zwei’s tracks.
A few moments later, they arrived at the mess hall with Blake still running in circles trying to get away from Zwei, along with some other cat Faunuses.
“Welp, that happened,” Yang just stood there dumbstruck at the men and female running for dear life away from the chasing dog, earning the laughs of fellow Huntsmen and students inside the mess hall.
The trio found their way towards a table next to Team JNPR who had cheerful expressions. It looks like they were able to get the thing about the Maidens off their chest last night. But for some reason, Pyrrha and Jaune were now acting more boldly than last night, flirting in plain view.
“Oh my? What are you two lovebirds doing?” Yang got closer towards Pyrrha and Jaune with a big, ugly grin on her face. Jaune and Pyrrha blushed at the incoming blonde, while Ren and Nora just deadpanned. Ren was understandable, but Nora deadpanning? Even with her favorite pancakes in front of her? Now that was a new sight.
After a little while, Blake found them and redirected Zwei towards Ruby and sat on the chair as far away as possible from Zwei. Ruby ordered cookies, as usual, Blake ordered tuna, like usual, while Yang and Weiss ordered something different from their palate.
“By the way, what do you think of the upcoming surprise?” Ruby asked towards her teammates and Team JNPR.
“I don’t know, but I think it has something to do with our upcoming mission,” Pyrrha stated while eating and flirting with Jaune. Seriously, these two got close in an instant after that night. And this did not stop Yang.
“Did you two cross the line last night?” Yang grinned while looking at the two with narrowed eyes. The two Teams, except Jaune and Pyrrha had wide eyes towards Yang for breaking something private, but Jaune and Pyrrha blushing did not help them.
“You’re kidding me?” Yang did not even think that vomit boy had what it takes to cross the line. She thought that she could get a few laughs from this, but instead, had created an awkward atmosphere for herself, and her team.
“Yang! Of all the inconsiderate things you could say-” before Weiss finished her statement, the PA called for them.
“Team JNPR and Team RWBY, please report to the meeting hall right this instant.”
The group quickly settled their lunch and stood up and headed towards their destination.

Lux was walking through the forest until she came across a wounded person lying beneath a tree. She quickly ran towards the wounded person and found out that it was a little girl Vastayan. She looked over her body and saw that she had some bite marks on her legs. Doing what she can, she took out some cloth from her bag and wrapped it over the wound to stop the bleeding.
The girl was unconscious, but still squirmed for a bit because of the pain. Without a lay of the map, she could not know where to go, so all she could do was wait and protect her until she woke up. Treating the wounds further with her insufficient medical knowledge that only runs far to patching up wounds to lessen the burden, she sat beside her, staff at the ready.
Just then, she heard a low growl and a rustling of the bushes. She perked up her attention and looked towards the noise. She held up her staff and stood on alert as she readied herself for combat.
What came out of the bush was a black monster, with a white mask similar to the one she killed last night, except, it was much smaller and shaped like a wolf. She steeled herself and scanned the surroundings to check if there were any more of them nearby.
Suddenly, the wolf leaped towards her, and Lux had no choice but to start combat. She dodged by doing a side roll and the wolf scratched the tree bark with its claws. Using that gap, Lux threw a luminous orb towards the wolf and hit it. The wolf was stunned by the orb and was unable to move. Lux did not miss this chance as she threw another orb and this time, it detonated around the wolf.
Once the light subsided, the wolf was dispersing into black smoke. Lux heaved a sigh of relief as she continued to protect the unconscious child. Using her magic, she created a barrier around them and leaned on the tree trunk beside the girl. As she sat however, she couldn’t do anything but lament the fact that she had no more home and her family. Even though she still considered them her family, the same couldn’t be said if they learned that she was a mage. Her brother on the other hand, still loved her, but she knew that if she went back to Demacia and they learned about her magic, she feared that her brother would have no choice but to do something he would regret for his whole life.
A few minutes later of waiting, she heard another rustling of a bush. When she stood up and held her staff at the ready, a voice shouted at her.
“Who are you?” the voice asked cautiously. When Lux faced the direction of the voice, she saw a woman Vastayan with the same features of the child. She had dog ears at the top of her head, and a bushy tail. In her hand, she held something like a weapon Lux had the courtesy of seeing before due to Piltover imports. It was probably a gun. Lux had a happy face and pointed towards the child.
“Is this your child Miss?” Lux asked as she held an expectant gaze. The woman however, when she saw the child, had a shocked and worried expression.
“My baby!” She quickly cast aside all fears as she dashed towards the child and hugged her in her embrace. “Oh, I’m so sorry. Mommy wasn’t here to help you…”
She had tears of happiness trickling down her cheek. When she saw the bandaged wounds however, her heart ached as if it was punctured by a knife.
“Did you do this?” she asked Lux, pointing towards the bandaged wound.
“I didn’t wound her, but I did dress it up,” Lux replied cautiously to not get a misunderstanding out of her. “The wound looked like a bite mark.”
“… Thank you,” the woman stood up cradling the child in her arms. “It’s not safe here, follow me back to the village.”
Lux nodded back with an approval and gathered her bags and held her staff, earning a curious gaze from the mother.
“That’s a strange weapon you have there,” the mother stated. “But not like I can pry. Just know that there may be some people here and there that might be curious. Also, please wear a hood, because where I’m from, there are some Faunus that dislike human.”
Lux wanted to ask something about what is a Faunus, but decided against it for the moment and did as she said as she perked her hood back on her head. She also learned new information that there was discrimination between their races, but she didn’t know which one was discriminating against who so she just clammed up and followed the mother back to her village.
A few minutes later of walking, they arrived at a place bustling with people. All of which are Vastayan, or Faunus if Lux got it right.
“Welcome to Menagerie,” the mother said to Lux as she smiled to her.

Inside of Mantle, Tryndamere, Ashe, and Braum were granted access after an encounter between the Teams of RWBY and JNPR, as well as Ozpin, Yasuo and General Ironwood. Once they had their formalities done, they went inside and into a building that was like an inn.
“Hah! You call that a blade?” Tryndamere scoffed at Yasuo rather thin blade as she brandished his huge sword with one hand.
“Some didn’t, but I changed their mind,” replied Yasuo calmly as he unsheathed his blade and wiped off some grime using a piece of cloth he had on his person.
“Tryndamere, please stop,” Ashe chided him as she apologized to Yasuo. “I don’t want to break friendly relations this early if I can help it.”
“Where are the poros?” Braum was just in his carefree mode as he continued searching for poros. Just then, something popped up from his shield and landed on the table with a cute sound. It had two horns, and looked like a puffball. It had two small eyes and a huge mouth with a tongue hanging loosely like a dog. “There you are little one!”
When the teams saw the cute little thing, well, pandemonium broke loose as the leader of Team RWBY dashed in with her semblance to cuddle the little thing.
“SO CUTEEE!!!” Rubby squealed as she joyfully cuddled the poro. The poro also had a satisfied expression as it just licked Ruby in the face while Braum just laughed in humor. The other Team members and Nora from Team JNPR also huddled around the cute poro as they fed it snacks.
While the girls were frolicking around the poro, Ozpin, Ironwood, and Yasuo were having a conversation with Ashe and Tryndamere.
“So you’re telling us that all of a sudden your land called Freljord grew in size, which then led you leading your tribes here?” Ironwood asked confirmation towards the most rational of the two.
“Yes, you’re correct,” Ashe replied as she confirmed it.
“Well General, looks like we need to hurry up with the new mission,” Ozpin stated as he sipped from his cup of coffee.
“Well, you’re not wrong Ozpin,” Ironwood rubbed the temples of his forehead while thinking that the situation of Remnant had gone into complete chaos, what with the world merging and the new people coming in droves. They were just lucky that there was no sign of an invasion, a thought that would likely come true in the next few days, but Ironwood doesn’t know yet.
“So can I have what I asked earlier?” Ashe asked as she just stared at the General.
“Alright, it’s not that much of a problem anyway,” Ironwood gave his approval. “But remember, once I know that you attacked Mantle, let it be known that it will not end well for you.”
“Yes, we know, right Tryndamere?” Ashe nudged the almost sleeping Tryndamere.
“My right arm is a lot stronger than my left arm!” Tryndamere was surprised as he was nudged awake from his wife’s nudging.
“Ughh…” Ashe rolled her eyes, while the others who heard this had a different thought, but Yang however had a dirty grin up her face. Before she could speak, Weiss quickly blocked her mouth with her hand.
This earned a laugh from Team JNPR and her teammates as they continued cuddling the cute poro.
