Sunset and Neo had finished their date* when alarms started blaring... Alarms that signified that a Grimm had somehow entered the city. "I thought we killed all the Grimm that got in during the breach..." Sunset pulled out her scroll and summoned her RPL. Within mere moments a locker crashed into the ground and opened, revealing Sinner's Ballad. She ran over and grabbed her weapon before turning to Neo, who had pulled out her umbrella. "Alright, lets get this over with..."

The two didn't even get a chance to move before a car flew over a nearby building and crashed into the grand across the street from them, demolishing a stand selling flowers as it landed. Fortunately, the man who owned the stand had closed up shop early. Suddenly a shadow was cast over the pair as a large crab-like Grimm leapt into the air and landed on the roof of the building behind the flower stand. "Sunset... Have you ever seen a Grimm like that before?"

"Not in person. What's a Carcinus** doing near Vale in the first place? They're native to southern Anima!" A roar from down the road got her attention and her moth dropped open at what she saw. "A Kraken!?*** Those things are only found in the waters near Solitas!" The squid like Grimm launched itself down the road, landing only a couple of feet away from the two girls before lashing out with it's tentacles. "Shit!" Sunset was about to jump out of the way when Neo opened her umbrella and held it in the air, shielding them from the strike. Sunset spared a glance at Neo and smiled. "Thanks!"

Neo simply smiled back. "Ehh, no problem." Sunset charged forward, changing Sinner's Ballad to axe mode as she reached the main body of the before bringing it upwards and severing the Grimm's tentacle. She move charge at another tentacle, but was blasted down the street by a powerful stream of water. "Sunset!" Neo looked at the Carcinus and growled, she went to move toward the Grimm, but was picked up and thrown in Sunset's direction by the Kraken.

As the pair regained their bearings and stood up a voice came from behind them. "Looks like you two need some help." Sunset glanced back and saw a Faunus with the ears of a grey wolf. He had dark brown, almost black hair and golden eyes. He wore a mahogany colored duster with a white undershirt, black combat boots and a pair of khaki shorts. Attached to his waist was a pouch, along with a slingshot, on his left wrist was what appeared to be a bracelet, though Sunset could immediately tell that it was really a weapon that functioned similarly to Aria's. The teen looked behind him and smirked as three more people approached, one was a teenage girl with a mouse's tail while the other two were teenage boys with lizard like tails. "Just in time team."****

Sunset stood up, readied her axe and smirked. "Well, if you insist. But I'll be taking mental notes on you in case we face each other in the tournament." Without waiting for a response Sunset, along with Neo, charged toward the Carcinus, who was also charging at the group.

The teen smirked and held out his left arm and his bracelet extended before three blades protruded from the end. "Drake, Drago, you two with me, Lilly you help those girls!"

Lilly, the only girl of the four, nodded and readied her weapon, a war hammer, and charged toward the crab like Grimm. She was wearing a light grey jacket and along with a pink combat skirt, her mouse tail coming out of a hole in the back, and yellow knee socks. She had green eyes and shoulder length purple hair, along with a little barrette in the shape of a mouse's face. "You got it Yara!" She stopped mid way and glanced at her team leader as she walked past. "Uhhhh... I just realized that I've never seen this kind of Grimm... Can you see it's weak point?"

The wolf Faunus looked at it for a brief second, time seeming to freeze as he analyzed the monster.***** "Its armor is too thick for Interitus to break through, you might be able to crack it if you used all your aura in one strike." He noticed the Grimm seem to brace itself before four plates on the lower half of its front retracted. "It seems to only be vulnerable when it's about to release one of those pressurized water blasts." The wolf Faunus then walked toward the Kraken in order to help his other teammates.

Sunset's axe collided with the crab Grimm's claw and bounced off. The Grimm backed up some and braced itself, its mouth opening and expelling another high pressure stream of water. Neo leapt in front of Sunset and blocked the water, without being moved an inch. Sunset nodded at Neo and swung at the Grimm, the edge's of her weapon's blade catching the crab's faceplate as it tried to move back into place.

At that moment Lily saw her opportunity. "Hold the mouth open!" The mouse Faunus charged forward, readying her hammer before thrusting the head of the hammer into the beast's mouth, the flat sides facing upwards and downwards. "Please work!" She pulled a small lever on the shaft of her hammer. The beast stopped moving and after a few seconds it began to turn into mist revealing that the girl's hammer now had of scythe blade protruding from each flat side. "Count that as a first for Team YLDD."

Sunset looked at the girl and smirked. "Nice moves." Sunset looked at the trio fighting the Kraken before her eyes narrowed. "Something's wrong." Normally when you sever part of a Grimm from the main body, it disintegrates almost immediately... But most of the tentacles that the three Huntsmen in training had severed were still there. Sunset approached one, and as she drew near, it sprung to life. Her head snapped back to the three fighting the Kraken. "Look out!"

As the tentacle approached, an eel like head with glowing red eyes emerged revealing that the tentacle itself was, in fact a Grimm.****** The teen that the tentacle had targeted turned around, his hood falling off as it caught the wind, revealing his jet black hair and reddish brown eyes. He wore a pair of blue jeans, black combat boots and a light dark green stripped flack jacket with a black hood. The boy smirked as a nearby lamppost fell over and crushed the Grimm's head. "Well, it would seem luck is on my side."*******

Unknown to both students and teachers alike, the Grimm that had been released into the city were merely a distraction.

Elsewhere in the city.

Slate Marma, a member of the ruling council of the Kingdom of Vale, stood in front of a dockside warehouse waiting for an agent of his Mistress to arrive. The sound of foot steps behind caught the mans attention and he turned toward the source of the sound. "Do you have any idea how lo-" His words died in his throat as he saw just who he had spoken to. "Mistress, my apologies! I had no idea you would meet with me yourself."

Nightmare, clad in a tight fitting black dress with a slit up the side revealing her left leg, as well as a pair of silver evening gloves with the symbol of a black full moon, except for the dark blue image of the Mare in the Moon and purple lines that flowed around it reminiscent of veins, scowled as the man fell to his knees and pressed his face to the ground. "Did you do as I commanded?"

"Y-yes Mistress! I convinced the others to remove Ozpin from heading the security for the festival."

A small genuine smile found itself on Nightmare's face. "My dear Slate, you've faithfully served me and Salem for what is it, ten years now? You have always done as I asked without question. And now that the day of Beacon's fall approaches..." She raised her hand and snapped. A pair of hooded figures emerged for the shadows and stood behind her, leaving a space for her to walk between them. "You are no longer needed."

Slate's eyes widened and his head shot up. "W-wha...? Mistress, y-you can't be serious." Nightmare turned around and walked away as the two figures approached. "No... T-this can't be happening! This isn't happening! Stay away!" The figures took hold of his shoulders and continued forward, dragging him into the now open warehouse kicking as screaming before the doors closed behind them.

Author's Note

*
A lot of people have asked me to do this so... I am going to write a few date scenes between Neo and Sunset. However they will be their own seperate story.

**
Carcinus: The Carcinus are a fairly new species of Grimm that were discovered only six years ago. Their entire body is covered in a shell that, even at a young age, has a density similar to that of a 3000 year old Death stalker. The only part of it's body that remains exposed are a small set of retractable plates that reveal the Grimm's circular mouth, filled with serraded teeth used for grinding, the mouth can also expel a stream of water that can reach up to 580 psi. Its claws have been recorded apply 500 psi of force. This Grimm can grow to the size of a Deathstalker.

***
Kraken: A large squid like Grimm that was first seen 50 years ago off the coast of Solitas. Known to attack fishing boats, the Kraken has eight tentacles, the largest measuring at twelve feet long, each is able to apply about 600 psi when constricting a victim. While it is uncommon for Kraken to leave the ocean and attack land, those that have are known to be extremely skilled at avoiding ranged weaponry, being able to leap over 14 feet by pushing off the ground with its tentacles. It has also been known to block projectiles with its tentacles. Its tentacles can be severed at their base. These Grimm can grow to the size of a Giant Nevermore.
