Chapters ABSL RWBY Next Generation
Twenty years ago in the land of Remnant, a great battle between the forces of good and evil took place. The Evil witch Salem and her forces tried to conquer all of Remnant but four brave girls and their friends defeated her. Even with Salem, gone there were still Grimm. Now a new legend is about to be born.
At a Roller Derby Rink in Atlas, A girl with red hair along with a matching wolf tail wearing a black roller derby uniform with electric blue highlights on the edges with the name (Iron Fang Diva) written on it was skating past a couple of bigger girls and performed a spin that knocked them both down.
“ Looks like Akane the Iron Fang Diva just scored some major points with that double pivot of hers,” The announcer said as the girl knows as Akane takes the lap with her teammates behind her. As soon as the match ended Akane’s team was declared the winners. As Akane was on her way home the team that lost to her appeared.
“ Hey, wolf freak no one beats us and gets away with it,” The caption said as she was about to attack Akane. Akane sensed the attack and drew one of her twin blades and blocked the attack. Despite putting up a decent fight Akane’s assailants struck her hard.
“ Enough just leave me alone,” Akane shouted creating a glyph beneath her and caused it to send the girls flying into the walls. As soon as Akane looked she saw her attackers incapacitated and the Atlas Military arriving. Later Akane was arrested for assault and was being scolded by the women integrating her.
“ Talk about reckless and not to mention the number of strikes I counted missed. If it was up to me you would be in prison with your grandfather but your mom wants to talk to you,” The woman said before another woman with white hair styled in a braided side tail wearing a business suit came in and took a seat across from Akane.
“ I see you unlocked your semblance and by what your aunt said its the same as the rest of our family,” The woman said.
“ Do you think aunt winter hates me?” Akane asked.
“ She could never hate you leading the Atlas Military is a very demanding job and she can,t be seen playing favorites just because you are family,” The Woman said.
“ So what will happen to me now?” Akane asked.
“ Well, it’s obvious we are taking you out of Mantle Academy,” The woman said.
“ Please mom don,t do that I promise to never fight again,” Akane pleaded.
“ Now hold on who said I was punishing you quite the opposite I am recommending you for Beacon,” The woman said.
“ Are you sure? don,t I have to be seventeen to attend a huntsmen academy I am only sixteen,” Akane asked.
“ True but you know my Team Leader Ruby Rose she was only fifteen when she attended beacon I can still remember our first meeting and how we literally exploded. The Woman Said.
“ Thank you, Mom,” Akane said with joy.
“ Think nothing of it. Now let’s get out of here before your aunt decides to lock you up. As soon as Akane and her mother returned to the Schnee Manor Akane ran to her room to start packing. Akane packed most of her supply of dust along with some of her favorite outfits. After she was all packed her mom was waiting for her along with another woman with dark hair wearing a red hood.
“ Hey kiddo you grew since I have last seen you,” The women said while rubbing Akane’s head.
“ Ruby please don,t do that, Akane maybe a wolf fuanus but she is no house pet,” Akane’s Mom said.
“ Sorry Wiess I just can,t help myself, Ever since Zwei past away Akane just seems to help fill the void,” Ruby said.
“ Well, in any case, good to see you again miss Ruby I’m off to Beacon. Akane boarded the Aircraft in front of the Manor and left.
An hour later Akane arrives in front of a school with so many people and begins to look amazed. As she was walking she falls and her suitcase opens scattering all her bottles of dust. Akane tries to collect all of them in a frantic fashion thinking someone will steal them from her. After collecting most of them and putting them back in her suitcase a girl with short blonde hair with purple eyes wearing a pink version of one of her mom’s old dresses approached her.
“ I think this belongs to you,” The girl said handing Akane a bottle of Fire Dust that had Akane’s specific brand on it which was a red crescent moon with claw marks overlapping it.
“ Thanks if I lost these I would be at a huge disadvantage,” Akane said before closing her suitcase.
“ Are you a first-year student?” The girl asked.
“ I am,” Akane said.
“ So am I, my name is Sapphire what is yours?” Sapphire asked.
“ I’m Akane Schnee but most people just call me Akane,” Akane said.
“You’re a Schnee? Don,t people in the Schnee family usually have white hair and a snowflake as their emblem?” Sapphire asked.
“ The red hair is from my father’s side of the family and the emblem is my design. Because of me being a wolf fuanus and having red hair I’m not completely the same as my family,” Akane explained.
As they were talking Sapphire noticed the twin blades on Akane’s back. What kind of swords are those? I never saw anything like them?
“ This is Bloody Fang and there not just swords they are also a High Impact magnetic bow or in the words of my Mom’s team leader its also a bow,” Akane said.
“ Wow, and you made those yourself?” Sapphire asked.
“ Sure did so what kind of weapon do you have?” Akane asked.
“ I have these blade fans I prefer elegance over power as for what they turn into lets save that for another time,” Sapphire said.
“ Will all first-year students please report to the Amphora Theatre for orientation,” An announcement said.
“ Guess we better hurry before we get left behind,” Sapphire said.
As soon as all the First-Years were in the Theatre the new headmaster of Beacon walked to the podium to discuss what was about to happen.
“ Greetings everyone I am Head Master Oscar and I’m sure everyone is eager to unpack and settle in but first we must divide all of you into teams so allow me to explain how this works in the ruins of the Emerald Forest we hidden some relics and it’s your job to retrieve these relics but don,t think it will be easy the forest is crawling with Ursa and bio wolves and many other Grimm. And one last thing before we proceed to the cliffside upon landing you will be forming pairs with whoever you meet and those people will be your teammates for the next four years during your stay here at Beacon. After Oscar finished talking his assistant directed everyone to the exit towards the cliff.
As soon as everyone was gathered by the cliffside, Oscar, had everyone stand on what looked like a platform. After explaining what was about to happen the platforms sent everyone flying through the air. Akane pulled out her swords and stabbed them into the tree she was flying towards to stop falling. After pulling her swords out of the tree she used her glyphs to walk down safely.
“ Well, that was certainly unexpected now to find someone I can work well with,” Akane said before walking through the forest. As she was walking she suddenly heard the sound of a bio wolf growling and rushed over to where it was. As soon as she arrived she saw Sapphire fighting it and noticed how she uses dust to create elemental attacks when she waves her fans. After freezing the bio wolf with ice she sees Akane arrive.
“ Glad to see you made it without a scratch,” Sapphire said.
“ You too that launching us through the air part was unexpected,” Akane said.
“ Beacon has always had that tradition guess it’s their way of seeing what we can do,” Sapphire said as the two of them proceeded.
Meanwhile back on the cliff, Oscar’s assistant was looking over her tablet and saw that Akane and Sapphire paired up together.
“ Looks like our first pair is Akane Schnee and Sapphire Diamond,” The assistant said.
“ Something tells me those two will be perfect together Glenda,” Oscar said.
Meanwhile, on the eastern side of the Forest, A girl with white skin, short brown hair and blue eyes wearing an Azure colored Chinese style dress was walking when she heard a loud growl from behind her. She turned around and was shocked to see an Ursa behind her.
“ I have no idea where you just came from but when I am through with you your toast,” the girl said. Before she could draw her weapon a Blue and Yellow Thunderbolt streak struck the Ursa and sent it flying through the trees. The streak revealed to be a girl with light Turquoise skin, Long brilliant Amber colored hair with gold stripes, Eyes of the same color and was wearing a bomber jacket with a black leather skirt.
“ You must one of those girls from Eques I been hearing about,” The white girl said.
“Sure am the names, Lightning Dust and you are?” Lightning asked.
“ I’m Blanc and how did you get here so fast?” Blanc asked.
“ My semblance is speed so naturally I would be here in a flash,” Lightning said. As they were walking more people were making pairs. While some were busy fighting Grimm others were making their way to the ruins. Back with Akane and Sapphire, they arrived at a clearing with some ruins with twelve pedestals some with nothing on them while others had chess pieces on them.
“ Looks like we weren’t the only ones here,” Akane said.
“ Seems that way any idea which one we should take?” Sapphire asked. Akane looked at the remaining pieces and picked up a white knight.
“ How about a cute pony,” Akane said mimicking Yang’s line from years ago. As soon as both Akane and Sapphire claimed both of the white knight pieces Blanc and Lightning arrived while being chased by what looked like a Snake Grimm.
“ Why do these places always contain insane amounts of Grimm?” Blanc asked to herself.
“ Who cares more enemies for me to fight,” Lightning said. Blanc had enough fighting and reminded Lightning about what the actual objective was. Fine but if we get attacked again I’m breaking loose. As soon as Blanc and Lightning claimed there relics a huge condor swooped down.
“ Well, Lightning you ready to break loose?” Blanc said.
“ Always am,” Lightning said before using her wings to take off like a bullet.
“ Wait you can,t rush in there recklessly we need a plan,” Blanc said.
“ I may have one that is if you’re ok with teaming up,” Akane said.
“ At this point, it may be our best option,” Blanc said as Lightning was sent back to the ground hard. Akane pulled her to the side with Blanc and Sapphire.
“ Lightning do you think you can carry me as high as you can?” Akane asked.
“ Try me but what do you plan to do?” Lightning asked.
“ You will see, Sapphire can you and Blanc keep the condor busy?”
“ You can count on us,” Lightning grabbed Akane and took off like a rocket while Sapphire and Blanc kept the Condor busy. As soon as Lightning reached her limit Akane had her bow ready and loaded. Lightning released Akane and as she was freefalling she unleashed three arrows that were armed with Electric Dust that nailed the Condor and stopped it from moving. Akane then switched back to Twin Sword mode and decapitated the Condor.
“ That was awesome the way you nailed that condor from five hundred feet in the air and then decapitated it,” Lightning said with joy.
“ How did you know that would work?” Sapphire asked.
“ Back in Atlas, I did a lot of archery training in intense conditions plus with some of my other abilities that we fuanus have and some Atlas Technology I am the Ultimate Sniper,” Akane said.
Later everyone was back in the Theatre with Oscar announce the teams.
Sunset Shimmer, Starlight Glimmer, Twilight Sparkle, Nori Pearl, you four retrieved the Black Bishop pieces so from this day you will be known as Team SNST lead by Sunset Shimmer. Everyone cheered before the next four that passed came up. Raven Winchester, Amber Belladonna, Kinro Swordsworth, Ginro Shelden, you four retrieve the white rook pieces so from this day you will be known as Team KRAG lead by Kinro Swordsworth. After Team KRAG left the stage it was now Akane and her friend’s turn. And finally Akane Schnee, Sapphire Diamond, Blanc Frost, Lightning Dust, you four retrieved the white knight pieces so from this day you will be known as Team ABSL lead by Akane Schnee.
“ Me team leader I don’t know,” Akane said.
“ Come on girl you so deserve it,” Blanc said.
“ Yeah, that plan you came up with to use my speed and flight to attack that condor from the sky was brilliant,” Lightning said.
“ We have complete faith in you so lead us well Akane,” Sapphire said.
“ Thanks, girls I couldn’t have wished for better friends than you,” Akane said.
“ I hope you’re watching Ozpin because it looks like the next generation is going to be a good one,” Oscar said to himself.

After the entrance exam was finished the teams were given their room assignments. Akane and her friends followed the directions until they reached a door with their team’s name on it.
“ This must be us,” Akane said before opening the door. As soon as she opened it the four of them were impressed with their room.
“ Bunk beds very practical,” Blanc said.
After finishing admiring their room the girls unpacked and changed into their school uniforms. The school day went by fast and after hearing about Grimm, Aura, and Combat it was lunchtime and Nori of Team SNST was beaten and bruised.
“ What happened to you Nori, you look like you been fighting an army?” Blanc asked.
“ You’re not far off Raven beat me up and her semblance Flock made it hurt more since she can clone herself, I swear it’s like I am the only one she hurts,” Nori said.
“ I’m sure that last part is not true,” Lightning said.
“ Ow, that hurts,” A girl with white skin, blue hair and a fox tail said as raven was pulling on it. Please stop,” The girl pleaded.
“ I told you she was a pain in the butt,” Raven said causing Akane’s wolf genes to kick in and made her want to rip Raven apart. Blanc and Lightning tried to hold Akane back but she was blinded by her fury.
“ You three better keep that mutt of yours on her leash before I decide to put her down,” Raven said in an even more mocking tone which was the final insult that pushed Akane into overpowering her teammates and pouncing onto Raven before she bites and mulls her like the Wolf she was. Sadly to say Akane’s rampage did not go unnoticed by the administrators who restrained her before taking her to Professor Oscar’s office. Oscar put a bone in front of Akane causing her to smell it and calm down.
“ Now that I have your attention Ms. Schnee tell me what made you try to mull another student like a Beowolf?” Oscar asked.
“ That Raven Winchester is such a monster she beat up one of my friends severely and then ridiculed another fuanus and then me I cannot let people who hurt my pack go unpunished,” Akane said.
“ I admire your determination to protect your friends but I can,t allow you to hurt other students,” Oscar said.
“ But it’s perfectly fine for humans to harm other humans you people with authority are always siding with the humans and are quick to punish us Fuanus. Does anything my mom ney Team RWBY manage to accomplish for equality for Fuanus not mean anything?” Akane shouted.
“ You mean like your mom marrying a Wolf Fuanus just to rub salt in your Grandfather’s wounds or how Blake took over the White Fang and turned them into a force for good. We are not here to discuss the civil rights of Fuanus we are here to talk about you hurting another student,” Oscar retorted.
“ Why are you defending someone who hurts innocent Fuanus without any remorse or care for anyone’s feelings?” Akane shouted.
“ I am not defending anyone I am simply doing my job as headmaster of this academy and on that subject, you and Ms. Winchester will be serving two hours of detentions,” Oscar said.
“ That’s not fair this untamed mutt was the one who attacked me how come I am being punished as well?” Raven said after barging in.
“ Becuase your actions were no better than Ms. Schnee’s were. She told me about what you did to Ms. Pearl and Ms. Kurama. You two better get used to each other’s company,” Oscar said before he had them both escorted to the Detention Room. Akane and Raven were placed inside a white room with desks and special crystals in the corners of the room.
“ Don,t even think of using your semblance’s because this room was designed to disable the semblance of anyone who sets foot in this room so enjoy your stay,” The woman said before leaving and locking the door. Akane and Raven took a seat at the desks and put their heads down. Raven was looking very bored.
“ This is all your fault you wolf freak,” Raven said.
“ My fault you hurt one of my friends and worse you attack one of my friends from back home,” Akane retorted.
“ I wish you fuanus would all just die you all are nothing but abominations,” Raven said.
“ Well I wish people like you and my grandfather would just die too,” Akane said.
“ That’s just like a fuanus to frown upon us humans who are superior to you freaks,’ Raven said.
“ Well, what about Amber?” Akane asked.
“ What about her?” Raven asked.
“ Her mom is a fuanus and I bet she is too,” Akane said.
“ Shut your fricken mouth you stupid mutt my team is none of your business,” Raven shouted.
“ I’m not trying to break your team up I’m just concerned for Amber’s safety,” Akane said.
“ Well don,t be she is a hundred percent human and nothing you say will prove me wrong,” Raven said. The argument went on for almost an hour until someone came in to check on them.
“ Alright, ladies time to break it up and settle the issue,” A woman said getting both of their attention. Even though both of them were avoiding eye contact the woman decided to break the ice.
“ My name is ms. Blackquil and I came here to settle your argument, So what seems to be the problem here?” Blackquil asked.
“ This vile witch has done nothing but hurt my friends and insult my kind,” Akane said.
“ Well this mutt has constantly been trying to break the superiority of the human race,” Raven said.
“ Oh dear, its a race war, Raven humans are no longer the superior race the White Fang has been nothing but helpful to all kingdoms they more than made up for their criminal actions and Akane not all humans are evil what about your mom and her friends Ruby and Yang?” Blackquil said.
“ My mom is fine but Ruby and Yang I’m not too sure about since they treat me as nothing more than a stand-in for their deceased corgi,” Akane said.
“ See we humans will never see you freaks as equals just like my dad said,” Raven said.
“ Raven your father Carden Winchester was a notorious criminal wanted for the murder of many fuanus be grateful your not in prison with him,” Blackquil said.
“ My father was a strong huntsman and your just jealous,” Raven said.
“ Is he just look at this,” Blackquil said as she showed Carden,s wanted poster on her scroll.
“ Lies that is fake you made that with some sort of paint program,” Raven said.
“ No Raven that is genuine they posted that bounty after an incident in Atlas where he tried to murder both a Wolf Fuanus and his daughter,” Blackquil said.
“ And just so you know that wolf fuanus and his daughter that was me and my dad,” Akane said.
“ You’re lying your just making that bull crap up,” Raven said.
“ Fine if you want proof then here look for yourself,” Akane said removing her blazer and shirt exposing an X shaped cut on her abdomen.
“ See Raven where else could she have gotten that?” Blackquil said.
“ That could have come from anywhere, in fact, I would not be surprised if she used those blades of hers to do that to herself,” Raven said.
“ No kid my daughter is being 100% honest with you,” Weiss said before entering the room.
“ Mom what are you doing here?” Akane asked.
“ Oscar called and told me you got into a fight with one of your classmates so I came to find out why,” Weiss said.
“ Did you come to spit out more lies about my father?” Raven asked.
“ You shut your mouth Akane’s father, My husband was on life support because of Carden and right now he is in the OR having a heart transplant,” Weiss said.
“ Will he make it?” Akane asked.
“ You know him he is the toughest warrior in Menagerie he will be back up fighting again soon,” Weiss said.
“ In any case. Ms. Schnee your daughter attacked Raven because of her hurting one of her friends and insulting fuanus,” Blackquil said.
“ I was afraid of this you see my husband mentioned one important fact about wolves and how they will attack anyone who hurts a member of their pack and to Akane her friends and fellow fuanus are like her pack,” Weiss explained.
“ So this happened before?” Blackquil asked.
“ Sadly yes Akane was seven when it first happened some kids were attacking her because of her fuanus DNA and went so far as to pull on her tail naturally she went wolf on them ever since my husband filled me in on canine behavior so we could handle the situation,” Weiss said.
“ So basically Akane’s Fuanus DNA kicks in when she gets angry?” Blackquil asked.
“ Precisely please don,t expel her for this she usually has better control,” Weiss pleaded.
“ Relax ms. Schnee Akane is safe,” Oscar said.
“ You, on the other hand, Raven will be spending the next few months in Menagerie and won,t be permitted to come back to Beacon until your prejudice against fuanus is gone for good,” Blackquil said with Oscar’s permission.
“ Not fair how come that wolf freak gets off with a slap on the wrist while I get expelled?” Raven asked.
“ Becuase Akane has been through enough already and with you gone her anger won,t be a problem,” Oscar said. After everything was cleared Akane was free to return to her friends who were all glad to see her again.
“ What happened?” Lightning asked.
“ Other than spending two hours in a room with Raven I’m fine now and feeling better now that Raven is gone,” Akane said.
“ What is gonna happen to her,” Sapphire asked.
“ She will be spending the next three months in Menagerie and won,t be coming back till her prejudice is gone for good,” Akane said. As they were talking someone was knocking on their door. Sapphire answered it and outside it was Amber.
“ Hi, Amber what can we do for you?” Sapphire asked.
“ Is Akane there I want to talk to her?” Amber asked.
“ Come on in,” Sapphire said. As soon as she was inside and the door was closed Amber undid her bow which revealed yellow cat ears.
“ Akane thank you for standing up for me and all fuanus now that Raven is gone I no longer need to hide who I am,” Amber said with joy. But I must ask how did you know I was a fuanus we never met until the entrance exam?
“ From your last name, you see your mom and mine were on the same team and she was always talking about Blake and how besides my dad and me she was the only other fuanus she opened up to,” Akane explained. As they were talking another knock was hear this time it was Akane’s old friend from Atlas.
“ Krystal you sweet vixen it’s so good to see you again,” Akane said with joy.
“ Akane so glad you decided to come to Beacon and I see you became stronger since last time,” Krystal said.
“ I had to since you stepped down as caption of the Atlas Fenrirs,” Akane said.
“ How are the girls doing by the way?” Krystal asked.
“ Pretty good we won the championship before I came here the other team, on the other hand, could not accept defeat gracefully and tried attacking me thus unlocking my glyphs and allowing me to transfer here a year early,” Akane said.
“ Well glad you could make it and as a team leader none the less,” Krystal said.
“ Reunion aside how do you think Kinro and Ginro are taking the expulsion of Raven?” Blanc asked.
“ Ginro is relieved that her cruelty will no longer plague him but Kinro is practically trying to figure out what we can do without Raven and her flock guarding us,” Amber said.
“ Well, I’m sure you guys will manage,” Lightning said. As soon as they finished talking Amber and Krystal left to go back to their respective rooms.
The next day on a boat docked at Menagerie Raven was getting off and was already disgusted by what she saw which was Fuanus everywhere but was forced to keep moving by the guards who were assigned to keep an eye on Raven during her stay in Kuo Kuana. As they were walking they arrived at a small house that was occupied by a man with black hair and wolf ears.
“ I was expecting you guys and I assume this is the Winchester girl I was told about?” The man asked.
“ Indeed Gold this is Raven Winchester we were told to leave her in your care while she stays here to learn to respect the Fuanus and treat them as equals and not as inferior beings,” One of the guards said.
“ Oh no need to worry I know exactly how to make that happen,” Gold said.
“ We know you do and so we leave her in your care,” The guards said before leaving. As soon as the guards left and the door was closed Gold took this moment to discuss what was going to happen.
“ Now listen up Raven here is how things are going to work while you are here you will look, act and work like a Fuanus,” Gold said.
“As if that will ever happen I am all human and nothing will change that,” Raven said thinking she was right only to be proven wrong.
“ I’m guessing those guards neglected to tell you I am the head of the Menagerie R&D Department and my specialty is Genetic Research,” Gold said after showing Raven his lab.
“ Like I said nothing you do will change who I am,” Raven said.
“ We will see about that,” Gold said as he loaded a needle with some kind of fluid. As I’m sure you already know Fuanus are human/Animal Hybrids so what I’m about to do is pump you full of this, Gold said as he injected the needle into Raven’s arm and then hook the needle to a hundred-liter tank of what he was injecting her with. This tank is full of Female Wolf Hormones and once it reaches empty you will be the perfect mate for me.
“As if I would ever agree to that,” Raven said while feeling a slight pain in her head.
“ You won,t have a choice you see injecting small doses of Hormones gradually changes you into a fuanus within a week but pump a human body full of enough for fifty doses not only are you a permanent fuanus but you will be easily acceptable to mating with another fuanus of the same kind it can even turn males into females,” Gold said wickedly.
“ You won,t get away with this,” Raven said.
“ Silly girl I just did you see they said I had to teach you to respect Fuanus they did not say how I can,t do it so prepare to lose your humanity for good,” Gold said as Raven began to sprout Wolf Ears. Welcome to my pack Raven Cinnabar.

I hope you all enjoy this chapter and I apologize in advance if I went too far with Raven,s punishment.

The next day Akane was packing her suitcase. Sapphire and the others noticed her packing.
“ Where are you going Akane?” Blanc asked.
“ Back to Atlas I want to see how my father is doing,” Akane said.
“ You sure it’s a good idea?” Sapphire asked.
“ We don,t have any classes today and I’m sure Professor Oscar will understand why I’m going home,” Akane said.
“ Can we come I always wanted to see Atlas,” Lightning said.
“ What the heck pack your bags, ladies because we are going to Atlas,” Akane said. After everyone was packed they locked their room and went outside. As they were walking they bumped into Professor Oscar.
“ Where are you four going?” Oscar asked.
“ To Atlas, I’m sure my mom told you about the condition of my dad and I’m worried about him,” Akane said.
“ She did. Proceed and please tell Flame I send my best wishes for a speedy recovery,” Oscar said. As soon as the girls left Glenda walked up to him.
“ Are you sure this is a good idea letting those four leave campus especially after witnessing Ms. Schnee’s behavior yesterday,” she asked.
“ It’s quite alright Glenda family is important and with her friends by her side I’m sure Akane will be just fine,” he said.
A few hours later the girls arrived in Mantle. Lightning was amazed by all the shops and stuff.
“ Right now we are in Mantle up there that is Atlas,” Akane said pointing to a city floating above them.
“ How the hay are we going to get up there?” Lightning asked.
“ We take the lift obviously,” Akane said as she showed them to a special elevator. As they were going up they saw more and more of Mantle. As soon as they reached the top and exited the lift they saw a far fancier city. Ladies Welcome to Atlas. As soon as Akane said that her mom arrived.
“ Akane so glad you could make it and I see you brought your friends as well,” Weiss said.
“ Pleasure to meet you, Ms.Schnee,” Blanc said.
“ Just call me Weiss,” Weiss said.
“ How is Dad doing?” Akane asked.
“ He just got out of the infirmary and is currently at home waiting to see you,” Weiss said. After they were finished talking Weiss showed the group to the Schnee Manor which amazed Lightning, Blanc, and Sapphire.
“ This is where you live you must be some kind of princess,” Sapphire said.
“ Heiress actually but I guess you could say that,” Akane said. As soon as they went inside they saw a Wolf Fuanus man in a wheelchair with bandages wrapped around his torso, the same red hair, and tail as Akane with red eyes. Dad, it is so good to see you again.
“ Good to see too you, my little pup and I hear you started attending Beacon,” The Wold Fuanus said.
“ Sure am I’m guessing mom told you everything?” Akane said.
“ She sure did especially how you stood your ground against the daughter of that Fuanus killer,” Akane’s Dad said with pride. Blanc noticed a picture of Akane’s Dad and another warrior fighting on a bridge.
“ Are you the legendary warrior Flame Bloodcraven?” Blanc asked.
“ I am and I can guess you heard of me?” Flame said.
“ Sure have back in Mistral they taught us about you. You were the wolf that won 999 battles and always claimed the weapons of your opponents upon victory,” Blanc said.
“ And as I’m sure you heard my 1000th battle did not end so well for me. After meeting my lovely wife I retired from fighting and started a family. I thought my fighting days were over until a murderer named Carden Winchester kidnapped Akane and tried to kill her,” Flame said.
“ That monster came close when he did this to me,” Akane said showing everyone her scar.
“ I’m just glad to still be alive,” Flame said.
“ As I’m I you are the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” Weiss said.
“ Akane please feel free to show your friends around I’m going back to my study to admire my vast collection of swords,” Flame said as he called Klaine to wheel him to his study.
Akane showed them to her room which was full of posters of a famous Roller Derby Team called the Neon Kittens and various Roller Derby trophies but what was most noticeable was the wolf-like decor.
“ Is this your bedroom or a wolf den?” Lightning asked.
“ You could say its both,” Akane said jokingly. Sapphire noticed Akane’s walk-in closet and the many kinds of feminine outfits most rich girls would wear.
“ You have a lot of amazing outfits,” Sapphire said.
“ Thanks, being the CEO of remnants biggest Dust Company my mom has certain standards which I don,t mind,” Akane said.
“ I never expected you to be into this kind of stuff you always struck me as the warrior type of girl who prefers fighting over being pretty,” Lightning said.
“ Can,t I do both?” Akane asked. Akane showed them her most cherished outfit which was a crimson and black version of her mom’s favorite outfit when she was a little older than her with the Schnee logo on the left sleeve replaced with her own. I made it myself by using mom’s version as a template.
“ How come you didn’t take it with you when you left for Beacon?” Sapphire asked.
“ Because I didn’t want it to get ruined if I had to fight near a lava pit like what happened to one of my mom’s combat skirts during her and Yang’s fight against Team FNKI,” Akane explained. As they were talking Weiss came in to see how they were doing.
“ How are you girls doing?” Weiss asked.
“ We are good and Learned some interesting things about Akane,” Sapphire said referring to the crimson version of Weiss’s old outfit.
“ She always was good at recreating things she sees when I showed her my old outfit she not only recreated it she even added her touches,” Weiss said. Anyway girls Oscar called he wants to know when you will be coming back to Beacon?
“ We will return first thing in the morning, for now, may I show my team around Atlas?” Akane asked.
“ Go ahead but don,t do anything to get arrested by your aunt again she is not known for her patients,” Weiss said.
After changing into her favorite outfit she and her friends left to see the rest of Atlas.
“ So girls what do you want to see first?” Akane asked.
“ How about the shops I want to see what kind of outfits you Atlisians have,” Sapphire said.
“ Boring how about the Roller Derby Rink I want to try and meet your teammates,” Lightning said.
“ Well, Blanc you’re the deciding vote what do you want to do?” Akane asked.
“ I’m with Sapphire,” Blanc said to Lightning annoyance.
“ Don,t worry Lightning I will text my teammates to meet us at the rink before we start shopping,” Akane said. After texting her teammates the group went to the shopping district. Sapphire was amazed by all the shops.
“ We have nothing like this back in Vale,” Sapphire said.
“ Akane why would you want to choose Beacon over Atlas this place is amazing,” Blanc asked.
“ It is amazing but the Atlas Military scares me Beacon is less strict and I’m more at ease with you guys,” Akane said.
“ Because of your aunt?” Lightning asked.
“ Aunt Winter is not the problem she loves me even though she can,t be seen showing favoritism to anyone it’s because the Atlas Military is not known for being merciful my mom once said that the former general James Ironwood locked her and her friends up because of his trust issues,” Akane said before flinching at the sight of an Atlas shoulder who was patrolling the shopping district.
“ Relax Akane we get it,” Blanc said. After Sapphire bought many outfits from a few of the boutiques Akane suggested they stop by the fro-yo shop before they head to the Roller Rink. Everyone agreed and went there for a little treat. After buying their fro-yo they picked a table and Akane’s teammates looked concerned with her chocolaty masterpiece.
“ Are you sure it’s safe for you to eat chocolate since your part wolf?” Sapphire asked.
“ Its perfectly safe Theobromine doesn’t kill me since we fuanus have the digestion system of a human,” Akane said.
“ Just making sure Blanc and I aren’t completely familiar with Fuanus Biology,” Sapphire said. After finishing their Fro-yo they left for the Roller Rink to meet the rest of the Atlas Fenrir. As soon as they got there Akane’s team were all excited to see her again.
“ Akane good to see you again,” One of the girls said.
“ Corundom you beautiful beast its good to see you too,” Akane said. Girls meet my Roller derby Team the Atlas Fenrir this is Corundum our best blocker.
“ Nice to meet you,” Corundum said.
“ And this is Ao,” Akane said referring to a girl with short spiky blue hair.
“ Pleasure to meet you,” Ao said.
“ And this is Jade,” Akane said referring to a girl with green hair styled in a ponytail.
“ Sup,” Jade said.
“ And Finally this is Autumn,” Akane said referring to a girl with orange hair with red highlights and a matching Foxtail.
“ Very nice to meet you,” Autumn said.
“ And now that introductions are out of the way what happened to you after you left the rink a few days ago?” Ao asked.
“ Interesting story as soon as I left the rink the team we beat the Mistral Bruisers ambushed me. I put up a decent fight but they managed to hit me hard. Naturally, I thought I was done until I unlocked my semblance which surprisingly was the same as my mom’s side of my family. After my glyph blew them away the Atlas Military arrested me and I was interrogated by my aunt. My mom was impressed with my abilities she transferred me to Beacon Academy a year early so now I am the leader of Team ABSL,” Akane said.
“ Did you say Beacon Academy?” Corundum asked.
“ I did and yes I met Krystal she seems to be doing alright despite a certain first-year messing with her,” Akane said.
“ Good to know and we have some news to That team we beat got banned for life after what they tried to do to you,” Ao said. As they were catching up the team they were talking about came to settle their score with Akane.
“ Hope you’re ready to die this time Wolf Freak because no one is going to save you this time,” The leader said.
“ I’m not alone this time,” Akane said.
“ That’s right you want to get to Akane you need to get through us,” Lightning said as she drew a Sword that suddenly broke into many segments connected by a small cable.
“ Do you think a whip sword can beat us,” The leader said.
“ Now ladies let not fight lets all just get along,” Sapphire said while winking thus generating pink hearts that hit the Bruisers and made them drop their weapons and fall for Sapphire.
“ Anything for you our true love,” The leader said along with the rest of her team before the left.
“ What’s with the sudden change of heart?” Lightning asked.
“ I never told all of you about my semblance you see I have the ability to cause whoever I want to fall in love with me but I don,t like to use it too much because if I use it on too many people they will invade my personal space,” Sapphire said.
“ That’s a pretty handy Semblance especially when dealing with Grimm,” Blanc said.
“ Now that they are gone how about we see what you three got,” Corundum said. As soon as the girls all got their skates they circled the track.
“ Sapphire that truly amazing you’re like a natural at this,” Akane said.
“ It’s almost the same as ice skating,” Sapphire said. After almost two hours of skating and a scrimmage between both Teams, Akane and her friends returned to the Schnee manor. After returning to her room Klaine knocked on Akane’s door.
“ Lady Akane dinner is almost ready please come to the dining room,” Klaine said before taking his leave. After arriving and joining everyone else at the table the chef brought everyone their meals. Chaliapin steak for Weiss and the others and Raw Meat for Akane and Flame. Blanc looked worried after seeing what Akane and Flame would be eating.
“ Don,t you think you should cook those first before eating them?” Blanc asked.
“ We are Wolf Fuanus we don,t wait for our meat to be cooked we eat it raw,” Flame said.
“ Cooked meat is great but I prefer mine raw,” Akane said before she and Flame began chewing on theirs like the wolves they were.
“ Don,t worry about them fuanus tend to act more like the animals they are and for Akane and Flame stuff like this is natural for them,” Weiss said.
“ Besides I need to plenty of protein if I want to get out of this Wheelchair,” Flame said.
“ Honey don,t push yourself the doctor said you need a month to recover,” Weiss said. After discussing many things it was getting late and everyone turned in for the night.

I decided to expand on some of Team ABSL's abilities a little. coming up for a weapon for Lightning was not very easy but hopefully, I found the perfect one for her.
ABSL RWBY Next Generation
In the Living Room of Gold’s home, Raven was busy doing some cleaning when Gold suddenly came home.
“ Hey, Hunny how was your day?” Gold asked.
“ Pretty good so far,” Raven said.
“ That’s good I’m glad you came into my life a month ago,” Gold said before kissing Raven even though Raven did not look completely joyed by it. Gold went into his secret basement lab while Raven continued cleaning. As soon as he was out of sight Raven heard a knock on the door and answered.
“ Can I help you?” Raven said.
“ Are you Raven Winchester?” A Cat Fuanus with shoulder-length black hair with matching cat ears and yellow eyes asked.
“ I am but my last name is now Cinnabar,” Raven said.
“ It’s worse than I thought Raven you’re coming with me,” The Cat Fuanus said before Gold came back up.
“ Where are you taking my wife?” Gold asked.
“ Raven is not your wife nor is she your servant I’m taking her with me and reversing the damage to her,” The Cat Fuanus said before leaving with Raven. Gold tried to take Raven back but instead got his arm stuck in a clone of the Cat Fuanus made of ice.
“ Curse you, Blake Belladonna,” Gold shouted.
As soon as they got away The Cat Fuanus took a moment to talk with Raven.
“ Apologies for not being there sooner we had a huge mess to deal with in Vacuo,” The Cat Fuanus said.
“ Who are you and what are you going to do to me?” Raven asked.
“ I’m Blake Belladonna the leader of the White Fang and as of this moment your new caretaker and teacher,” Blake said.
“ Belladonna?” Raven asked.
“ Yes I am Amber’s mother and as for what I am going to do first I am going to reverse what that monster did to you,” Blake said as she pulled out a needle she swiped from Gold’s lab. Blake stabbed the needle into Raven’s arm and then Raven regained her free will but not her humanity which upset Blake.
“ Why am I still part wolf?” Raven asked.
“ I’m afraid the transformation is irreversible Gold Cinnabar pumped your body with so many Female Wolf Hormones that it completely rewrote your DNA so now you’re an official Wolf Faunus all I could do is restore your free will by expelling the sex drugs you were filled with,” Blake said with regret.
“ So your saying I can never go back to being human and I will be treated as an inferior being?” Raven said.
“ Now hang on there are some good things about being a Faunus too like for instance, we have abilities humans don,t have,” Blake said.
“ And you’re going to show me these abilities?” Raven asked.
“ In due time but first let’s get you out of those clothes,” Blake said referring to the slutty slave outfit Gold put Raven in.
Meanwhile back at Beacon Akane was looking at her scroll when a news article caught her attention.
“ Girls come quick you must see this,” Akane said getting her teammate’s attention.
“ What is it Akane I was busy kicking Blanc’s butt at Ninja Warriors 4,” Lightning said.
“ We are still tied at one apiece,” Blanc said.
“ Nevermind that, come have a look at this,” Akane said referring to the news article about Manigirie. “ Manigirie’s lead scientist Gold Cinnabar revealed to be conducting illegal experimentation on humans. Raven Winchester forced into being his subservient wife.
“ Serve raven right for hurting our kind like that now she will feel our pain,” Lightning said.
“ Now hold on Lightning I don,t like her either but even she deserves to have free will I want her to respect our kind but it’s meaningless if it’s not of her own choice,” Akane said.
“ You know Akane you may be a wolf but you have more humanity than most humans do,” Sapphire said.
“ Thanks, Sapphire my mom taught me that freedom is the most important thing you can have,” Akane said. As soon as they finished talking about the article everyone went back to what they were doing.
Meanwhile at the secret HQ of the White Fang Blake was waiting outside of the room she rented out to Raven. Minutes later Raven came out wearing a black hakama and sandals with white tabi socks. Over her outfit, she wore a black shrug with a long right sleeve and a short left sleeve, gold-leaf trim adorning the opening on the front along with long, black arm warmers that extend to the middle finger. The left warmer has a purple band tied around the top and a pair of gold bangles around the wrist. Around her waist is a black and gold sash that trails behind her.
“ Luckily my mom was kind enough to loan you that outfit we will go shopping later but for now let’s get started on your training,” Blake said before handing Raven a bow and quiver.
“ Archery? Not a problem,” Raven said.
“ That’s just part of it what I’m about to show you is one the most basic abilities a Faunus has,” Blake said before cueing someone to turn the lights off. Even though the room was completely pitch black Raven could still see the targets. What you are witnessing is night vision all Faunus have this ability so your first lesson is to try and hit the targets using your night vision. Raven shot her arrows and as soon as they made contact Blake cued for the lights to turn on which revealed that one of the three shots fired landed on the outer ring of the target. Not bad for your first try.
“ I can do better,” Raven said.
“ I know you will which is why you’re going to keep at it until you perfect it, In the meantime, I have some important business in Vale to attend to,” Blake said before she left Raven to keep training.
Sometime later in Vale Amber, Akane and Krystal were having lunch at a local cafe discussing their plans for the upcoming vital festival.
“ So Akane are you and your team entering the Vital Tournament?” Krystal asked.
“ We sure are lightning is very excited to compete as am I,” Akane said.
“ Will Team KSTL be competing too?” Amber asked.
“ Of course we are this is what we been training for,” Krystal said.
“ I wish I could compete but with Raven gone our team is not qualified to enter since the rules say you need a full team to compete,” Amber said.
“ Funny you should mention her,” A voice said before Blake appeared.
“ Ms. Blake, what are you doing here?” Akane asked.
“ Akane you can just call me Blake you don,t have to be so formal all the time,” Blake said.
“ What brings you to Vale mom?” Amber asked.
“ I wanted to check up on you Amber and I see you decided to let your ears show,” Blake said while smiling.
“ With Raven gone, I no longer need to be afraid of who I am,” Amber said.
“ That’s the other reason why I’m here I came to deliver a status report on Raven’s progress and I have some bad news about her,” Blake said.
“ Is this about Raven being turned into a wolf fuanus by that quack Gold Cinnabar?” Akane asked.
“ It is but don,t worry I’m helping her through it as we speak,” Blake said.
“ Assuming she learns something when she turned back into a human,” Krystal said.
“ That’s the bad news the transformation is permanent and there is no way for her to turn back,” Blake said.
“ I hope she is doing ok,” Akane said.
“ I am training her to use her new abilities so when she comes back she will be ready to aid you in the Vital Tournament this spring,” Blake said.
“ That’s great to hear Kinro and Ginro will be pleased to hear this,” Amber said.
“ Good to know now I must be going, Professor Oscar wants to see my report,” Blake said before leaving.
“ Back to the Tournament what do you think the other teams will be like?” Amber asked.
“ What we can guess about Atlas they will either be strict militant fighters or whatever Team FNKI was like,” Akane said.
“ Speaking of teams I noticed the rest of yours was not with you today Akane,” Krystal said.
“ Sapphire is busy working on her combat skills since her semblance is not too good in a combat scenario, Lightning went back to Eques to challenge some rival of hers whose name she will not say, and Blanc I don,t know where she is all she did was leave a note saying she wants to challenge me to a sparring match later,” Akane explained before Sapphire found them.
“ Akane there you are, Blanc, is waiting for you at Vale Stadium,” Sapphire said.
“ You mean the old stadium that has been abandoned for years after the fall of beacon?” Krystal asked.
“ That’s the one feel free to come with,” Sapphire said. Sometime later Akane and the others arrived at Vale Stadium and Blanc was waiting for them.
“ Glad you could make it Akane are you ready for a little sparring match?” blanc asked.
“ I always am I don,t think I ever asked about your skills,” Akane said.
“ Let us begin and you will soon find out,” Blanc said as she drew what looked like a broad sword.
“ Cool Weapon but mine is better,” Akane said.
“ We shall see,” Blanc said before making the first move and lunging at Akane. Akane blocked the attack with one of her swords and then stabbed it into the ground generating a black glyph around herself thus making her faster. How are you moving so fast I thought your semblance was glyphs just like your mother?
“ My semblance is Glyphs here is a quick lesson on them for you there are different types of glyphs that each have different effects the one I just used is called Time Dilation which allows me to temporarily increase the speed of whatever I use it on,” Akane said before getting ready to strike at Blanc. As Akane was getting close Blanc touched the ground and erected a wall of glass to block the attack. Where did this wall come from?
“ That would be my semblance, Scorching Caress not only can I superheat objects and manipulate their shape I can also turn dirt and dust into glass,” Blanc said.
“ But isn’t that the power of the former fall maiden?” Akane asked.
“ It was my mother’s semblance before she became the Fall Maiden,” Blanc said.
“ So all this time you were the daughter of Cinder Fall?” Akane asked.
“ I am so are you going to abandon me just like everyone else has?” Blanc asked.
“ Of course not, Your one of my friends and nothing like Cinder, You’re not defined by what your mom was, you are your person,” Akane said as she broke through the glass. Blanc defended with her sword and then sent Akane back to the other side of the ring. Blanc than reconfigured her sword into a railgun and fired at Akane thus causing her body to glow with a red aura. Not a bad shot you even managed to drop my aura to almost half but its time I showed you my power. Akane summoned a glyph that created a smaller copy of the condor she slew during the entrance exam.
“ I thought you killed that condor?” Blanc said in shock.
“ I did this is another Schnee specialty called summoning it allows us to call forth fallen foes and have them to aid us in battle,” Akane said before the condor grew a little and attacked. Just as things were about to get interesting an arma gigas appeared in the center and stopped the attack. A familiar voice suddenly spoke.
“ Are you girls crazy fighting each other I thought you were teammates,” The voice said revealed to be Weiss.
“ We are its just a little sparring match,” Akane said.
“ That condor you summoned seemed a bit excessive for just a sparring match young lady,” Weiss said. But good form.
“ What brings you to Vale Weiss?” Blanc asked.
“ I wanted to check on Akane and see how far she has gotten with her Glyphs and it looks like she managed to get the basics down,” Weiss said.
“ But why interrupt our match?” Blanc asked.
“ Because a run-down place like this is not the best place for practice lets return to Beacon,” Weiss said before everyone left.
Meanwhile, in Oscar’s office, Blake was discussing her report on Raven with him.
“ So there is nothing we can do to reverse the effects on ms Winchester?” Oscar asked.
“ I’m afraid not we ran some blood tests and everything and it looks like you will be having one more fuanus in your school,” Blake said.
“ This is all my fault if I did not send her to that place then maybe none of this would have happened,” Oscar said with a somber voice.
“ Don,t blame yourself you couldn’t have known this would happen you just wanted to try and have raven understand our kind better let’s just focus on the upside,” Blake said.
“ Your right what’s done is done nothing we can do about it,” Oscar said. By the way, what’s the status of Gold Cinnabar?
“ We arrested him and by now he should be rotting away in the Mistral Prison,” Blake said.
“ Good we don,t want to lose any more of our students,” Oscar said.
Author's Note
sorry, this one took so long coming up with ideas for Blanc was a challenge.
ABSL RWBY Next Generation
Weiss was putting Akane through the wringer with glyphs for the past two days and after many hours of practice Akane nearly had everything down.
“ I think that should do for now. The only thing left for you to improve on is expanding your arsenal of summons. That condor is not enough, you need to fight more enemies,” Weiss said before Akane fainted from exhaustion.
“ Talk about strict and rigorous. You whipped Akane so much she collapsed,” Blanc said.
“ I know and I wish I could be more gentle with her but there is something you girls need to see,” Weiss said while showing a news article on her scroll.
“ The Iron Shackles strike again. Unruly Fuanus threat in Vacuo dealt with,” The article said.
“ What does this have to do with you putting Akane through Bootcamp?” Sapphire asked.
“ This was the day after Blake and the White Fang settled the issue and now they are on the hunt for all fuanus, not just the evil or unruly ones,” Weiss said.
“ So you're worried they will hurt Akane when they decide to come here is that it?” Blanc asked.
“ That’s right and according to Yang’s latest intel report they are planning to attack during the Vital Tournament,” Weiss said.
“ Not good and with the other kingdoms coming to Vale for the Tournament we won't know who to trust?” Sapphire said.
“ Just keep your eyes peeled for anything or anyone out of place and you should be fine,” Weiss said.
“ Should we wake Akane up and tell her about this?” Blanc asked.
“ It would be best not to do that. I don't want her to get angry and do something reckless like she did to Raven,” Weiss said, making sure Akane was still out cold.
“ She will find out eventually what will we do then?” Sapphire asked.
“ We will worry about that later, for now, you girls should return to your room and rest,” Weiss said before taking her leave. As soon as they mentioned that Lightning returned from her trip.
“ Glad you made it back to Beacon Lightning mind carrying Akane back to the dorm?” Blanc asked.
“ What happened to her?” Lightning asked.
“ Her mom put her through two whole days of nonstop training and she passed out from exhaustion,” Sapphire said.
“ Makes sense. Come on Princess time to take you to bed,” Lightning said as she carried Akane on her back. The other students were looking at her like she was wearing Akane like a pelt.
“ What are you all staring at?” Lightning said.
“ Nothing, it's just why are you carrying that wolf girl on your back?” One of the students asked.
“ She is my friend and she is exhausted so I’m taking her back to our room,” Lightning said. After making it back to their dorm room lightning put Akane in her bed. Akane was still not moving. “ So mind telling me why Weiss was here?”
“ She came to train Akane and to warn us of an evil organization called the Iron Shackles,” Blanc said.
“ I heard that they are an anti-Faunus group who despise all Fuanus and aim to control them like robots,” Lightning said.
“ What do you mean like robots?” Sapphire asked.
“ They have this former Scientist from Atlas who was researching ways to control the Fuanus who were enslaved by the Schnee Dust Company. His latest breakthrough was these collars that allow him to control their emotions and make them feel how he wants them to feel,” Lightning said.
“ How exactly do you know all of this?” Blanc asked.
“ When I was defeated by my rival back in Equas I left to do some training on my own in Vacuo when I entered a Village that despised Fuanus so much. Everyone wouldn’t shut up about the Iron Shackles so that’s how I know of them,” Lightning said. As they were talking Akane finally woke up.
“ What did I miss?” Akane asked.
“ Nothing, we were just having a conversation about Lightning’s trip,” Blanc said as convincingly as possible.
“ Will all first-year students please report to the Anfa Theatre,” An announcement said.
“ Looks like we will have to wait to talk more about it,” Lightning said before the girls left.
Sometime later after everyone was gathered included the students from the other huntsman academies Professor Oscar took the stage.
“ Thank you all for coming now on to business. As I’m sure some of you have heard The Iron Shackles are on the move and we have just learned that they are looking for the Relic of Reality which when used will allow the user to shape the universe as they see fit,” Oscar said which caused everyone in the room to gasp. “ Now don,t panic the location of the relic is still unknown and the Vital Festival will still be on but we will be increasing security for the safety of everyone gathered. After explaining the additional security measures that will be going into effect Oscar told the students to report any suspicious behavior to either the Atlas Military or the teachers and staff. With the assembly now over Akane and her team went back to their room.
“ I swear if I ever see any of those monsters from the Iron Shackles I will kill them myself,” Akane said as her eyes glowed.
“ Easy Akane don,t let your anger take hold, we promise not to let them hurt you,” Sapphire said.
“ Sorry it’s just these guys need to be taken down,” Akane said.
“ They will but we are just kids, we don't stand a chance against these guys,” Blanc said.
“ Let’s just focus on getting ready for the Vital Tournament,” Lightning said.
Meanwhile inside the Training Room of the White Fang HQ Raven was busy training with Blake. Blake used her semblance to try and confuse Raven but failed and was pinned by Raven’s arrow.
“ There is nothing more I can teach you. You are now ready to return to Beacon,” Blake said. As soon as she said that she and Raven were on their way to the port to catch the next boat back to Vale. As soon as they reached the port the captain stopped them.
“ Sorry ladies but the port is closed due to the impending threat of the Iron shackles,” The captain said.
“ Great how am I supposed to return to Beacon now?” Raven asked close to losing hope.
“ I can get you there,” A woman with long blonde hair and a yellow mechanical arm said as she approached them.
“ Yang? What are you doing here?” Blake asked.
“ I came to warn the Fuanus of Menagerie of the Iron shackles,” Yang said.
“ Well thanks to that the port is closed and all ships off the island are stuck in the bay,” Blake said.
“ Who said I got here by boat I rode here on my hoverbike,” Yang said before tossing Raven a spare helmet. After getting on Yang took off for Beacon with Raven. After arriving at Beacon Yang and Raven went to the dorms to find the rest of Team KRAG. As soon as Raven entered her Team’s room Kinro, Ginro, And Amber were glad to see her again.
“ Raven, we missed you so much,” Ginro said while shedding some tears.
“ I missed you guys too, especially Amber,” Raven said before Amber hugged her.
“ I’m sorry for what happened to you. With how you felt about Faunus I was never honest with you,” Amber said.
“ It’s not your fault I only have myself to blame for hurting your kind and now that I lost my humanity I no longer have any reason to be so mean to you or even Akane,” Raven said.
“ So which animal are you now?” Kinro asked.
“ I’m now part wolf thanks to that quack scientist Gold Cinnabar,” Raven said.
“ Well human or Faunus you're still a part of Team KRAG and we are glad to have you back,” Kinro said. After catching up everyone went to bed.
Meanwhile in the secret underground level of Beacon Oscar and Glenda were showing Krystal something.
“ As i’m sure you can guess this is the vault of the Fall Maiden and hidden inside is one of the four keys only the maidens can use to unlock the hidden vault that contains the Relic of Reality,” Oscar said.
“ Why are you showing this to me?” Krystal asked.
“ Because we know your one of the maidens and with the impending threat approaching the time for secrets is over,” Oscar said.
“ Tell us Krystal have you ever felt a huge surge of power you cannot explain?” Glenda asked.
“ Come to think of it sometimes during our Roller Derby Matches back in Atlas when we were on the edge of losing I felt this hidden source of power take hold,” Krystal said.
“ That's the power of the maiden and by the looks of it your the Fall Maiden,” Oscar said before telling Krystal to try and open the vault. After placing her hand on the door it opened and reveal another realm full of falling leaves and a pedestal with an orange key on it. “ That is the Key of the Fall Maiden. It will only work for whoever holds the power of the Fall Maiden so take it and keep it safe. Krystal took the key and went back to the elevator to return to her room.
“ Are you sure it's a good idea doing this?” Glenda asked.
“ The enemy will most likely try and fight their way down here to get that key so if we leave it with its maiden then we can keep that relic safe,” Oscar said.
The next day everyone was gathered to welcome the transfer students from the other kingdoms. Some were very friendly while some were very mean spirited and only cared about winning the Vital Tournament. After meeting everyone Oscar took the stage to explain why everyone was here.
“ As I stand before you I see people from Beacon, Haven, Shade, Canterlot, And even Atlas gathered together. And now for the reason, we are all here today we will be having all of you take on missions. As Huntsmen and Huntresses, you will sometimes be required to take on missions. Some may involve gathering intel or dealing with a Grimm invasion. While others may involve seeking and killing a wanted criminal. If you look to the left you will see a giant mission board with missions on it. Now don,t think you can just choose whatever one you wish because we have some restrictions set up based on your skill and grade level. The high-level missions are blocked off from all the first years. The low-level missions are blocked off from all the third and fourth years. If a First-Year student should even try to take on a high-level mission without permission from me or Glenda. They will be expelled rather they come back dead or alive,” Oscar explained before Glenda took over.
“ Now that we established the rules lets get started,” Glenda said before the mission board turned on. As soon as the assembly ended Akane and her team went to see what was available for them.
“ This one looks interesting,” Lightning said referring to a mission that involved dealing with hoards of Grimm.
“ We can,t take that one it’s for third years and above,” Akane pointed out after seeing the three-plus in the top right corner of the tab.
“ Well how about this one,” Blanc said referring to a mission that involved being a crossing guard.
“ That one is way too easy I want to bust some skulls not help kids and old ladies across the street,” Lightning said. As Blanc and Lightning debated over what mission to pick Oscar came over to check on them.
“ I see you girls are having some trouble deciding which mission to choose,” Oscar said.
“ You could say that. Lightning wants something challenging and Blanc just wants something within the rules,” Sapphire said.
“ What about miss Schnee what does she want?” Oscar asked.
“ I think she just wants something that will satisfy everyone and I do too,” Sapphire said.
“ In that case, I think I know just the mission for you girls,” Oscar said before guiding Akane to a mission that involved investigating some ruins near Mt Glenn that had a two-plus on it.
“ Are you sure we can accept that one it said its for second years or higher?” Akane said.
“ As my predecessor once said. Instead of waiting for you to break the rules why don,t we just bend them,” Oscar said before pulling his tablet out and unlocked the mission for them.
“ We won,t let you down,” Akane said.
“ I sure hope not. Professor Valkyrie will be joining you. Listen to what she tells you because she will have you sent back to Beacon if she sees your skills are not satisfactory,” Oscar said before leaving. As soon as the mission was selected, Team ABSL left to find Professor Valkyrie who was waiting by a helijet for them.
“ You girls ready to go?” Valkyrie asked while pounding her fists together.
“ Sure am,” Lightning said.
“ Then let’s get going I am too pumped up to keep waiting,” Valkyrie said before she dragged all four of them inside the helijet and taking off.
Author's Note
Sorry, it took so long.
The Iron Shackles belong to Mr Tenebris
ABSL RWBY Next Generation
Team ABSL along with Nora Valkyrie landed safely near the ruins and were told to leave all their bags on the helijet. Before leaving Nora inspected all four bags like she was looking for something.
“ What are you doing Professor Valkyrie?” Lightning asked.
“ Just making sure none of you girls smuggled any cute critters with you,” Nora said.
“ Why would you think we would do something like that?” Akane asked.
“ I’ll tell you, girls, about it later but for now we have some ruins to investigate,” Nora said before leading the expedition. The girls hiked through what felt like miles of jungle watching Professor Valkyrie fend off any wildlife that would pose a threat. A few minutes later they arrived at what looked like an old temple built into the side of the mountain.
“ Are these the ruins we came to investigate?” Blanc asked.
“ Sure are but before we enter be warned we are now in Grimm territory so try and keep your emotions in check or they will attack us,” Nora said.
“ I’m not scared of them so bring them on,” Lightning said.
“ Lightning please take this seriously we came to investigate the ruins not pick a fight,” Akane said.
“ Whatever you say Princess but if they do attack I won,t hold anything back,” Lightning said. The girls lit some torches before entering the temple. As they kept walking Akane suddenly sensed something.
“ Everyone stop, “Akane shouted which caused everyone to stop.
“ Why are we stopping?” Lightning said annoyed.
“ Do you sense Something Akane?” Sapphire asked.
“ I smell brimstone and it’s coming from below us,” Akane said. After hearing what Akane said Nora found a pebble and threw it which activated a hidden trap door that leads to an underground volcano.
“ Good call Akane how did you know about that?” Nora asked.
“ I’m a wolf Faunus remember we canines have heightened senses making us good companions for huntresses,” Akane said, sparking a memory of something Professor Oobleck once said in Nora’s mind. Akane used one of her glyphs to keep the trap door shut as the group continued down the path which leads to a huge room. Akane noticed some strange writing on the wall ahead of them. Blanc also noticed and asked if anyone had a way to makes things brighter. Akane drew one of her swords and loaded a burn crystal into it causing it to ignite thus illuminating the room some more.
“ Will this work?” Akane asked.
“ That will do nicely,” Blanc said before looking at the writing. “ Those who seek the treasure of the Wolf Goddess be warned for it is protected by her loyal subjects. Only a wolf of noble birth may claim this treasure”
“ Any idea what that means?” Sapphire asked.
“ There’s a hidden treasure in this temple and only a special creature may claim it,” Blanc said before everyone stared at Akane.
“ Why is everyone staring at me like that?” Akane asked.
“ Oh, no reason, your highness,” Nora said emphasizing the last part.
“ Are you sure it’s a wise idea to go after this treasure?” Akane asked.
“ Why not we’re here and we just happen to have a Wolf from a rich family with us,” Nora said.
“ Since your leading the expedition we have no choice,” Akane said.
“ Great, Now Blanc where did you learn to decipher ancient text like that?” Nora said.
“ I always had a thing for archeology so I study up on every known culture I could find,” Blanc said.
“ Was there anything written there about how we can move on?” Lightning asked, getting excited.
“ It mentioned something about the three trials of the Wolf Goddess,” Blanc said.
“ And what is the first one?” Sapphire asked.
“ It did not say. The final sentence said “ To open the path that leads to what you seek you must silence the wolf that always shrieks,” Blanc said.
“ Well, I don,t hear anything?” Sapphire said before she saw Akane drop her sword and set a bunch of vines on fire. The vines all lead to a bunch of holes in the walls that suddenly illuminated the whole room revealing a bunch of Wolf statues with their mouths open.
“ Of course the ancients must have set up a secret way to light up the room way to go Akane,” Blanc said before noticing Akane looked like she was in pain.
“ That ringing please make it stop,” Akane pleaded.
“ Ringing?” Blanc said before she figured the riddle out. “ Girls I think I solved the riddle. One of these statues is emitting a high pitch frequency and only Akane is hearing it,” Blanc said.
“ Akane can you sense where it is coming from?” Nora asked. Akane pointed towards a wolf statue with a moon symbol on it. Blanc reached inside the statue’s mouth and hit a switch that stopped the sound and opened the way forward.
“ Thank you, Blanc, a few more seconds and I would have bailed from this mission,” Akane said.
“ Stay strong Akane we need you for this mission,” Nora said.
“ Well let’s get moving, these trails won’t solve themselves,” Lightning said before everyone proceeded. As soon as they left the room a mysterious woman wearing a kimono with a katana strapped to her side appeared out of the shadows and quietly followed them. Akane sensed where the traps were and used her glyphs to protect everyone.
“ You're starting to get very good with those Akane,” Nora said.
“ Thank my mom for drilling it into me for two days straight,” Akane said. As soon as they finished talking they arrived in a room that was full of lava and holes in different places on the ceiling. It looked like they reached a dead end and all they found in the room was a pipe organ with an open music book. Blanc saw some writing by the door and read what it said.
“ The first Trail. The Trial of the royal melody. Play the Melody that puts the queen to rest and you shall pass this test,” Blanc said.
“ Anyone here an expert on music?” Nora asked.
“ Leave it to me,” Sapphire said as she took a seat at the organ and began playing. As soon as Akane heard the notes she began to feel like she knew this song. Suddenly Sapphire stopped after coming to a part where the rest of the song was torn out of the book. Sapphire decided to try and figure it out on her own and when she hit the wrong note arrows were shot out of the holes on the ceiling. Akane used her glyphs to block them while telling Sapphire to not give up. Sapphire kept going and despite failing three times now never gave up. Akane suddenly had an idea.
“ Sapphire try following along with my singing,” Akane said before singing. ♫ Little Wolf of mine why are you so red? Maybe because you're tired from fighting all who may harm you. My heart I will happily offer to you. Little Wolf of mine rest your weary eyes and tomorrow will be better than today. ♫ After Akane and Sapphire finished the song the lava began to drain and a secret passageway leading down was revealed.
“ How did you know that song?” Sapphire asked.
“ My dad sang it to me all the time when I was little,” Akane said. Meanwhile back in the previous room the same lady who hid in the shadows came out and went into the secret passage before leaping back into the shadows. As they kept walking they noticed there were no traps in this passage and made it to the second room which had them standing on a cliff. On the other side of the room was a huge drawbridge. Blanc noticed the writing and did her part.
“ The second Trial. The trial of Accuracy. To get across the abyss you must nail the target and be sure not to miss,” Blanc said.
“ This sounds like a job for me,” Akane said as she switches bloody fang to bow mode.
“ Are you sure you can make a shot that far out?” Nora asked.
“ Just watch,” Akane said as she drew her bow back and fired. The arrow looked like it was about to hit the target until an updraft suddenly sent it upwards.
“ I should have guessed this wasn’t going to be easy,” Lightning said. Akane tried again and this time her arrow was blown away to the left.
“ You sucks at this Akane,” Lightning said.
“ I do not. I calculated my trajectory perfectly that should have been a clean shot,” Akane said.
“ It’s not your trajectory that’s the problem, it's those air vents they are shifting your shot,” Blanc said after studying them.
“ So what do you think we should do?” Sapphire asked.
“ I noticed that those vents go off five seconds of each other. So they blow in one direction for five seconds and then all four stop for five seconds. So the key is to strike within that five-second window where there is no wind blowing,” Blanc theorized. Akane prepared her shot and waited for Blanc to give her the signal to fire. As soon as the last vent started blowing Blanc told Akane to fire and as soon as the last vent stopped blowing the arrow successfully landed and the bridge was lowered. As soon they crossed they arrived in the third room which four different doors each with a different moon design on them. Blanc found the writing and did her thing.
“ The Third Trial. The Trial of Memory. To find the treasure that you desire you must find the correct door or you will be set on fire,” Blanc said.
“ Any idea what that meant?” Nora asked.
“ We need to think back on everything we just went through. Maybe one of those puzzles has a clue to which door we should open,” blanc said. The girls all thought back to every part of the temple they went through until Akane remembered something.
“ I remember that first room with the shrieking wolf statue it had a moon pattern carved on to it,” Akane said.
“ Of course that moon symbol wasn't just for decoration it was a clue for this trail. Do you remember what it looked like?” Blanc asked.
“ I remembered it was red with a gold die next to it. Blanc opened the door with the exact symbol on it and saw an open passageway with no traps inside. As soon as the girls made it into the treasure chamber they saw a golden necklace on a pedestal.
“Let's get that necklace and get out of here,” Lightning said before trying to rush in only to be pulled by her wing.
“ Hold it we can’t just grab it and go we need to think carefully,” Blanc said.
“ What is there to think about? we arrived and the treasure is right there,” Lightning pointed out.
“ Yes, but you weren't paying attention to the thing I read. Only a wolf of noble birth can claim the treasure and last time I checked you're not a wolf you're a pegasus,” Blanc pointed out.
“ Then I suppose you're better suited to fetching it?” Lightning asked.
“ Not me either. Sapphire, Professor Valkyrie, and I are human so that just leaves Akane,” Blanc said. Akane walked up to the pedestal and looked like she was defusing a bomb.
“ Relax Akane you're the only one that can do this,” Nora said. After snatching the necklace Akane was expecting a giant boulder or something to roll at them but was relieved to see nothing happened. As soon as she reunited with the others a voice suddenly spoke.
“ I commend you on being able to solve the riddles and claim the treasure,” The woman said as she rose out of the shadow she was hiding in.
“ Who are you and how are you doing that?” Lightning asked while gripping her weapon.
“ I'm Ivy Mossdeep relic thief extraordinaire and what we're witnessing is my semblance which allows me to manipulate and hide in the shadows of anything I wish,” Ivy said, confusing Lightning on the second part.
“ What did you say you can do?” Lightning asked.
“ Not only can she control and change the shape of shadows she can also become them by going inside them,” Blanc clarified.
“ Exactly. And as I was saying good job claiming the lost necklace of the wolf queen. Now hand it over before someone gets hurt,” Ivy said.
“ No one is handing anything over to you Ivy because you are under arrest,” Nora said as she flashed her license at her. Ivy used her semblance to bind the girls and take the necklace from Akane. As soon as Ivy touched it a whole pack of Bio Wolves filled the room.
“ Bio Wolves? Where did they come from? We haven't had a single negative emotion?” Lightning asked.
“ I don't think they are here because of that. They must be the queen’s loyal subjects. As soon as Ivy touched the necklace they must have sensed their queen was in danger,” Blanc said.
“ Like a bunch of Grim will stop me from getting that necklace,” Ivy said only to be scratched by one and have her semblance interrupted. One of the Biowolves threw Akane on their back and ran off with her back the way the group came with Nora and the others following. As they were running all the traps went off and the Bio Wolf sustained some heavy injuries. Before dying the wolf safely allowed Akane and her friends to leave the temple before it collapsed.
“ Thank you, Bio Wolf I will never forget your sacrifice,” Akane said before feeling something going on with her glyphs. A glyph appeared and generated a white copy of a Bio Wolf.
“ That Bio Wolf’s sacrifice must have meant something to you if you're now able to summon it,” Nora said.
“ So what now do we return to Beacon and hand the Wolf Queen’s necklace over to the Museum?” Akane asked.
“ Normally that would be how missions like this go but since that Necklace has a curse on it that will call forth an army of Bio Wolves if anyone touches it. It would be best to let you keep it since you're the only one that can wear it without putting everyone in danger,” Nora said.
“ Thank you, Professor Valkyrie,” Akane said. As soon as the group returned to Beacon they noticed some of the other first-years made it back as well. Professor Oscar greeted them as soon as they entered.
“ I trust the mission was a success?” Oscar asked.
“ It sure was. Team ABSL performed greatly,” Nora said.
“ And I see you found the relic hidden in the temple ruins,” Oscar said.
“ Sure did we even got into a fight with a relic thief named Ivy Mossdeep,” Lightning said.
“ Any idea what became of her?” Oscar asked.
“ She tried to steal the necklace from me and caused an army of Bio Wolves to show up but knowing that semblance of hers we probably haven't seen the last of her,” Akane said.
“ Then it's best not to put this in a museum,” Oscar said.
“ So I really can keep it?” Akane asked.
“ Just remember to keep it locked up tight when you take it off,” Nora said. After receiving a passing grade for accomplishing their mission Akane and her friends went back to their room to rest.
Meanwhile back at the ruins, a shadow came out through the crevices of the debris and Ivy came out looking beat up and covered in claw and bite marks.
“ You have not seen the last of me Team ABSL,” Ivy shouted to the heavens.
