Red Light
A Wizard, the Maiden and the unknown
Previous ChapterNext ChapterInside the Patch hospital, the doctor gave the maiden a special phone. This phone has the capacity to direct any communication to a high ranking person or a VIP using highly encrypted lines. The maiden was slightly surprised to see it in the hands of a civilian. Which made her forget that the doctor is also part of the military.
"Ozpin." The maiden said using a said telephone that directly connects to his office.
"Fria." Ozpin simply said on the other side of the phone call. Ozpin sounded calm on the other side of the call. Which slightly surprised her. It's almost as if, he knew she was alright.
"Well. I wish I called under better circumstances. But atleast I am safe." Fria admitted slightly shook at what happened, now that she has insight about the situation.
"I... am glad to hear you alive atleast. I actually send my ace in your direction. Did he?" Ozpin calmly asked while sipping his coffee.
"You mean Qrow?" Fria asked.
"Mhm."
"No. He didn't arrive. Or atleast not in time."
"Is that so?" Ozpin said, his voice sounded slightly surprised.
"Yeah. Nor did I feel his aura nearby." Fria admitted.
"Well in that case. How did you make your way to Patch Hospital?"
"A group of warriors found me. And saved me."
"Any names?"
"They went by the nicknames, The Silver Paladin, The Golden Meteorite and The Dragon Arts. I have never seen them before this." Fria explained.
"Anything unique about them?"
"Each had special masks on. The Stone Golem, The Serpent and The Red Dragon. In that order."
"I... see. Let me guess, each mask represented their combat style?" Ozpin asked after a moment.
"Yes. But one thing each had in common. They were all fast and powerful. Especially the stone golem and the red dragon."
"What about the serpent?"
"Fast, agile but they used hit and run tactics. Just like their real counterpart." Fria explained.
"I see."
"They are also decreed as heroes by the Patch Military. So much so, that they follow them instead of you." Fria added.
Ozpin was taken aback by that. He knew that Tai's children have been training and according to Glynda stopped some of his hunters in training from running to their deaths. But not to this degree. How did he know it was them? Simply connecting the dots was easy. But convincing himself to this fact was a whole different story.
"Anything else?"
"Yes. One of three, my guess is the red dragon, has the ability of foresight. Visions that actually would have come true. She is probably the one that detected me from afar." Fria finished explaining.
"Alright. I was going to send you back to Vale for an investigation. But..."
"You want me to check those three out for you?"
"Yes. I initially wanted you to investigate more about the Darkening. But, this has a slightly higher priority now." Ozpin admitted.
"I see. You want me to meet my heroes in the flesh first before moving on."
"Yes-" Ozpin was about to explain why, when someone knocked on Fria's door.
"It's me. Qrow Branwen. Here to assist you back to Beacon?" Qrow said on the other side of the door.
"Do come in Qrow. I was just talking to Ozpin through a phone." Fria calmly said.
Qrow opened the door. Revealing a calm Fria with a phone in her hand. She was laying down in a hospital bed.
"Qrow." Ozpin said through the phone.
"Yes?"
"Sorry for wasting your time. But Fria is going to stay in Patch a moment longer. I need her to investigate Tai's children." Ozpin explained.
"Is there even anything to investigate?" Qrow asked skeptical.
"You might not be aware. But Tai's children have undergone a transformation. They are walking talking warriors now. Under Taiyang and Glynda's guidance, they are training themselves in the art of a capable huntress." Ozpin explained.
"Really?!" Qrow admits surprised.
"They saved my life Qrow." Fria calmly admitted. Causing Qrow's eyes to widen.
"How good?"
"As if they have been huntresses all their lives. They were powerful, capable, smart. They took on human enemies as if they have since birth." Fria explained.
As Qrow's eyes widen, he searched the room for a chair. After finding one, he took a seat and a sip of his alcohol. "That's... incredible. I... don't know what to say. It means they went from normal children two months ago, into full blown warriors the next."
"You mentioned Glynda... What did she train them?" Fria asked.
Ozpin sighed, much to the surprise of Qrow and Fria. "That is just it. She is keeping her mouth shut. She keeps dodging the questions and talks work, instead of revealing anything."
"Let me guess, Tai isn't anything better." Qrow offered.
"Yeah. His phone calls no longer happens as often. He does sound a lot more stable, calm. So my guess is that he no longer drinks alcohol." Ozpin revealed.
"Well that is good atleast. Especially since he cares for three children now, instead of just two."
"That reminds me... The red dragon... Which must be his newest child, said something really... odd." Fria said.
"What did she say?" Qrow asked.
"That my secret is safe with them. Whatever that means."
"Is she referring to your magic? And maiden status?" Qrow asked with a raised eyebrow.
"No. All three knew of my maiden status. Only one of them said that." Fria dismissed.
"You think she is aware of your magic powers?!" Qrow shouted.
"It must be." Ozpin chimed in, "It would be the only secret worth keeping."
"If so... Shit. I knew that girl was bad news. What should we do?" Qrow said slightly disturbed.
"You will do nothing." Ozpin said, "I want you to gather information on their actions while you have been away. Fria will check those girls out."
"But..." Qrow said hesitantly.
"Qrow... Please remember this. They saved my life. Please don't harm any of them."
Qrow looked at Fria hesitantly, until eventually sighing under the pressure. "Fine. I will back off, for now."
Fria smiled, "Thank you."
Qrow looked away slightly embarrassed. Meanwhile Ozpin suddenly spoke up, "I agree with Fria. Please back off for now. If I think she is bad news, then I will give the order. That is all. You are dismissed. And Fria, please stay in contact."
"Will do." Fria said as she hung up.
------------------------✴------------------------
Meanwhile back home at Tai's place.
------------------------✴------------------------
Meanwhile back at Tai's home. Though Tai lacked foresight, he felt something was coming. Or someone.
"Hm..."
"What is it dad?" Twilight casually asked. She was standing next to Tai, while having a small break from stamina training.
"I think Uncle Qrow has returned early. Probably ordered by the wizard to save a certain maiden."
"Probably to escort her to Beacon." Yang chimed in. From the living room.
"What is Ruby doing?" Tai asked.
"She... I don't know. Something about discovering something interesting about her semblance. Something about it being not just speed." Yang explained skeptically.
"I see." Twilight said, a small smile formed on her face. "Let it be. I know that her semblance isn't only speed indeed. And I probably also know what it is. But lets leave her to discover it herself."
Tai and Yang raised their eyebrow at that. "Anyways, I don't think he will come here."
"Yeah." Twilight suddenly said, her senses alert. "The maiden is coming instead."
"Is it the cold one?" Yang asked.
"Yes."
"Her name is Fria. I met her through the wizard. She is nice and kind. She poses no threat." Tai explained.
"Interesting..." Twilight said as she scratched her forehead, "Her energy is lacking... Someone might have stolen a piece of her ability."
"What?!" Tai said shocked.
"Yeah. If she has magic and winter magic no less. Then this must not be all of it. I fear that the witch already has a piece of it." Twilight warned.
"How do you-?" Yang was about to ask, but simply saw Twilight shook her head.
"Perhaps I will explain it a bit later. For now, know that I can sense it. That's all."
"Fine. But you better explain it to me too." Tai requested.
"Only if you no longer follow the wizard will I tell you. But Yang I will explain it later to, guaranteed. You on the other hand. Maybe, maybe not." Twilight admitted.
"I suppose that is fair." Tai said sighing.
"Regardless, she is here."
Twilight, Yang and Tai all heard knocking on the door. "Come in! The door is open." Tai shouted. As the group took a seat in the living room.
Fria then opens the door. Revealing the group sitting on a couch in the center of the living room. She smiled as she too takes a seat. Her smile seemed mostly directed at Tai.
"Taiyang Xiao Long. It is good to see you. And in a much better mood too. Then last time." Fria said.
"Fria. I am happy that you look fine despite yourself." Tai made a soft smile towards her.
"So you are the winter maiden, Fria." Yang brashly stated, her skill as serpent flowed through her voice. Everyone in the room felt it.
"Calm yourself Yang. Your mask is showing." Twilight reprimanded. Causing Yang to droop.
"Sorry. New habits die hard." Yang joked. Causing Twilight to giggle.
"Anyhow, nice to meet you Fria. My name is Twilight Rose Xiao Long. And this is my older sister, Yang Xiao Long." Twilight introduced.
"My other sister is currently training her semblance. So she isn't here right now. Her name is Ruby Rose." Yang added to Twilight's introduction.
"So you are the heroes that saved my life." Fria mentioned.
"Ah. The wizard connected the dots... Then again who else could it be." Twilight said with an innocent smile towards Fria.
Fria didn't miss the undertone of hostility at his mention. Twilight disliked Ozpin. That much was clear from a single sentence. But for her to openly broadcast it, was slightly surprising.
"Bonk." Tai bonked Twilight for that.
"Owie." Twilight complained, but showed no signs of annoyance, instead her smile turns a bit brighter.
"Excuse my daughter's hostility. Her ability of foresight can both look in the future and past. She must have seen something... bad. When the wizard's name is mentioned. Regardless, let me guess. Ozpin is dissatisfied with the lack of reports. Correct?"
"Yes. Though he is pleased that you no longer consume alcohol." Fria mentioned.
"This home allows no alcohol anymore!" Twilight said as she snatches Fria's alcohol flask from her hip. She then placed it into a safe and hid it using a fake wall.
"That was Qrow's..." Fria halfheartedly stated.
"Hmpf." But Twilight took no "No." for an answer.
Fria drooped slightly at the implications of the event that will follow. Before returning a smile, "Very well. I will deal with the ramifications. Now then. Small warriors. Care to explain why you are training so hard?"
"I want to be a huntress." Yang replied.
"I want to beat Pyrrha at the Tournament." Twilight replied as well.
"And I want to protect my sisters." Ruby replied as she suddenly made an appearance. Though Fria flinched slightly, nobody else flinched at all. Which made Fria aware that she was the only one unaware. Each had their guard up. Even in a safe environment.
"Interesting. Do you plan on joining Beacon?" Fria asked again.
"Yes." Both Yang and Ruby replied.
"I will follow my sisters everywhere. So yes." Twilight replied slightly hidden.
"Do you dislike Ozpin? Headmaster of Beacon?"
"Yes." All three children said at the same time.
"I see. Why?" Fria asked.
Ruby and Yang were about to answer only for Twilight to shake her head. "I am afraid that is answer you will not receive. We have our reasons." Twilight denied.
"I see. That means you are the reason?"
"No. That would be me." Tai replied instead. "I told them everything. Everything I know about Ozpin, why he wants Ruby, everything."
Fria's eyes widen, "What." She said shocked.
"I decided that by hiding the truth, I would only fall deeper into the darkness. Not wanting that, I chose to reveal everything. Now then... that has created an interesting situation. You could unbind me now, but that could only go worse for Ozpin. Or you can let it go, which will once again be terrible for Ozpin. Which is it?" Tai asked.
"You moron." Qrow said as he suddenly entered the room.
All three children jump up, weapons is hand in case of a conflict. Ruby and Yang weren't afraid to sick their weapons into Uncle Qrow. Twilight was slightly hesitant though.
Qrow slightly jumped at the automatic reaction the trio had on his presence. Mostly because he didn't expect them to reach for their weapons. Twilight sensed Glynda's presence, causing her to using her advanced speed to dash out of the room. If Qrow, Fria and the others weren't alert, they would not have seen her leave. A single blink and she was gone. Much to everyone's surprise.
"Wow. Little sis is fast!" Ruby said in awe.
"What just happened? It's like she teleported." Yang admitted, equally in awe.
"She did not teleport. I sensed no aura or magic from her. That was pure skill and speed. Incredible." Fria also in awe.
Qrow noticed Tai's proud smile, causing him to sigh. "I apologize. I just didn't quite trust Twilight." He said as he calmly sat down.
Ruby and Yang slowly lowered their weapons. But not their guard. That was still very much up. Qrow then held his hand up at Fria. Ruby realized what he was about to find out. Causing her to giggle. That wasn't missed by Qrow and Fria.
"I do apologize. Apparently carrying alcohol in this house is banned. So they took away your flask to an unknown location." Fria admitted embarrassed. Causing Qrow's eyes to widen, before sighing in disappointment.
"Don't worry. I know where Twilight hid your flask." Yang mentioned. "You will get it back after this."
"Alright. That rule is there, just for you. Isn't it, Tai?" Qrow said.
"Yes. Though it has been a while since I last tasted alcohol. I am far too busy teaching the kids about parkour and testing their abilities." Tai admitted.
"What about Glynda? What did she teach?" Qrow asked.
"I taught Twilight stamina." Glynda said as she appear through the doorway, but only her head. Twilight was in her tow.
"Right... I remember. She is obligated to ambush you when you are in her sensing field." Ruby mentioned.
"Yes. My senses were so busy sensing Fria and Qrow, that I totally missed Twilight sneaking up on me. She got me." Glynda said as the door opens wider, showing a Glynda with tomato ketchup all over her. Ruby and Yang didn't even attempt to hide their laughter. Qrow was more stunned, Fria was trying to stifle her laughter and so was Tai.
"Well. It was either her or me. Though unless she thinks about taking a douche here at our home. She has a lot to explain to Ozpin if she went back, looking like this." Twilight said proudly.
"Yeah. A douche would be nice." Glynda said, blushing out of embarrassment.
"Very well. Let me show you our douche for guests." Twilight said as she guided Glynda off.
Ruby and Yang were still too busy laughing at the scene before them. That their guard had slightly lowered. But they were still alert despite it. Fria meanwhile openly giggled now too. Tai managed to keep it in. And Qrow was still somewhat stunned. And after a few minutes, they could hear a shower turning on in the house.
"There we go. I put her clothing in the washing machine. And turned it on." Twilight said as she once again returned to the living room. Ruby and Yang were done laughing at this point and so was Fria.
"If you are wondering what Glynda taught me. Well, besides our stamina training, I need to learn how keep my breath steady when approaching an enemy. So we basically ambush each other, whenever we get the chance to. And not just during the day. We do this in pitch darkness too." Twilight explained.
"I love training with Glynda. She is so much fun. But also so damn strong." Twilight said with a slight growl.
"Anyhow. Sorry about that. Regardless if we have guests over. My training continues even when I am asleep." Twilight added.
"Huh." Fria simply said slightly surprised, after which she gave a soft smile. "So she has regained some of her confidence, huh?"
"Sorry?" Twilight asked confused.
Fria giggled, "It's nothing dear. It's just, ever since she has been employed to work at Beacon, she began to feel more distant as each passing day. I thought it was just stress. But now I see. It's exactly the opposite."
"She lacked something exciting in life, right?" Twilight said, her mouth also forming a small smile as well.
Fria nodded, "Yes. Not only that, but also the reason to keep training. After... a mistake the wizard made, Glynda's interest in training began to dwindle. I suppose it turned into a sort of depression. Whatever he had done, made Glynda... the way she is now. Until now."
"Until we suddenly appeared in her life huh." Twilight said as she pointed at herself and most of Tai's family.
Fria nodded again. "Yes. She never did tell me what happened. But I assumed it was bad, since even the wizard kept quiet. And whenever I asked, he talked around the question, but not without a slight shake in his step. Almost as if he too, was hit hard by whatever mistake he made."
"I see. I suppose in all his wisdom, even he is still somewhat human. Not entirely, but somewhat." Ruby commented.
"I..." Glynda said as she returned from the shower and walked in on the conversation.
"Ah! Don't force yourself." Yang quickly said, "I understand that trauma doesn't disappear in a single night. All we can do is move on and accept the mistake. Or else you will be stuck in the past. Which will only cause more suffering. Believe me, I know."
Ruby, Fria and Twilight smiled at Yang's statement. It was true, nobody should force themselves to face their past. You should always take your time. And when you are ready, I am sure everyone will calmly listen to your plea. But in Glynda's case, her plea was far more desperate.
It was then that Tai walked in an gave Glynda a tap on her shoulder. He shook his head, trying to convince Glynda to let it go. But Glynda simply looked at him, her eyes sad and depressed. Almost as if, it's because of Tai, that she fears the truth.
Glynda took a deep breath, several in fact, as she looked slightly determined at the group. "No... I think you deserve to know now. It's... about Summer. We... kinda already knew what her plan was. But we didn't know whether or not she was actually going to go for it. We hoped she did it with help... Instead... she did not."
"We... I... told her about the Darkening. The story about how someone got corrupted using the Darkening. We explained its effects to her. The look she made as I continued to explain it..." Glynda shuddered at the thought, "Her eyes... turned dark red as we continued to explain. Almost as if she knew something we did not."
As Glynda's eyes turned desperate she looked at Twilight. Only to slightly jump, Twilight gave her a knowing sad smile. "And then she simply thanked us." She continued, "And then she disappeared the following night."
"I see now." Twilight spoke up, "The dragon, Summer's disappearance, the witch's sudden action. It lines up. I see now..."
"What do you-?" Glynda asked stunned, her eyes moved across the group. Tai and Qrow sat there silent, watching and listening, but giving little to no response. Ruby and Yang appeared to merely listen. Though they flinched several times at the name of their mother. And Fria looked with honest curiosity at Twilight.
"The Darkening caused the human to turn into a dragon. But who was this human? Well... It probably was..." Twilight calmly said, her eyes turn towards Tai and Glynda, "Her mother."
The group flinched, but Tai and Glynda was frozen solid at the new possibly information. Qrow gave the group a sad smile, suggesting he had a feeling. But he was unsure, though Twilight confirmation only compounded on his understanding. Summer left, to save her mom, from herself.
"Now I understand why my vision told me to investigate the darkening. It's possible that in an attempt to save her mother, she only fell into the same trap as her. Why would the witch make a move? Well, she believed it to be the wizard's fault. Because only the wizard knew what happened to Summer's mother."
"And also because only Summer could keep the witch at bay." Qrow added saddened. "She was special like that."
"Twilight." Ruby asked, "Do you think we could save her?"
"You?" Twilight looked at Ruby, Ruby nodded at that, "Normally no. But with me, maybe. I am also kinda special after all. I know how to tame the darkness and make it work along side me. In a sense, just like the witch."
That caused Qrow to draw his weapon, only for Fria to freeze his weapon to the ground. Much to his surprise.
"Is it because you have... something special?" Fria asked while watching Qrow closely.
Twilight giggled at Fria. "Surely you felt it no?"
Fria looked at Twilight a bit closely, after which she gasped in surprise. Causing her to let go of Qrow's weapon. "You..."
Twilight smiled as she shook her head, "Do leave it at that, yes? We would want the wrong people, the wizard and the witch, to find out do we?"
"Only if you answer me this. Could you undo the damage on Summer and her mother?"
"I would need to see them first to be certain. But... probably." Twilight replied, "But having Ruby and Yang's help will make it easier. Definitely."
"Why them?"
"Because I am a silver warrior." Ruby answered.
"And I am a born warrior." Yang added.
"While I am... a special kind of warrior." Twilight smiling.
Fria's eyes widen, "Did fate grant us another chance?" She asked as she looked up, "Or is it the god of mischievous?"
"No. I can assure you. It's both the god of Lunarspace and god of the Celestium. That allowed this rare fate to combine." Twilight smiled.
This caused Fria's mouth to hit the floor in the most cartoony kinda way. As she realized the implication of Twilight's statement. "Are you from....? But how? How? I... can't believe this." She mumbled.
"Let's just say, I read something I shouldn't have." Twilight admitted.
Fria mumbled on and on for another solid minute. Only to come to a final conclusion. "We have a chance to end this nightmare." She admitted, "It's only possible because this gal, happened to be in this dimension. Thank the gods for this."
"You mean she is the key?" Tai asked.
"Sort of." Fria admitted, "Because in that case, she would be cheated in key. Officially, it's Summer. She is the key. But she is gone, possibly missing."
"Regardless, instead of seeing me as a key, see me as another opportunity for a proper reset. I could do a lot. But only with your guidance." Twilight said as she looks at Tai, Glynda and Fria. "And help. I cannot do this alone. That is why I call myself, an outsider. Once I did my part. My job is done."
"What is your job?" Tai asked.
"Only time will tell." Twilight said, "But the winds of hope is blowing. A future previously set in stone is changing, I can tell. I can also tell, that I will not be here forever. Once I grant a better future for everyone, my job is done."
"Everyone?" Yang asked for confirmation.
"Everyone. Even the witch and wizard. Because all of this started, due to their lame fight." Twilight lamented.
Fria giggled knowingly. "I see now. What do you want me to do?"
"Fria. You are a foreseer, you know what needs to be done. I want you to act in Vale, act as an intermediate. I need you for actions only you can perform. Leading a group of believers for a better future. That is your job." Twilight said vaguely.
Fria nodded, "Alright. I will make it happen."
"Glynda, your job is simple and hard at the same time. I want you to far more strict with the newest generation of warriors than ever before. Their lives will determine the fate of Beacon and Vale. If you want, teach them the ways you taught me. Even if that will make you a demon teacher, do so with their future in mind." Twilight instructed.
"I see. So if the wizard's jobs don't fail. It would give us more time. I understand." Glynda admitted.
"Tai. I want you to go to Vacuo and investigate the darkening. That is the only hope I will have to figure an antidote for Summer's possible new affliction. And her mother for that matter. While also using it as a cover. I believe you might be able to investigate the current on-goings with their people. Something bad is happening there, but I cannot be there for them." Twilight instructed as well.
"Bad like what?"
"I can only give you two words, Blake and Atlas. I am sorry. My vision showed no more." Twilight apologized.
"I see. Atlas and Vacuo never worked well together. And that is the name of the children from... I see. I will intervene." Tai said hopeful.
"Ruby and I will participate in the tournament and hopefully change someone's terrible future." Twilight ominously said.
"Okay. We trained for it, so we might as well." Ruby said with muted excitement.
"Yang. You have now learned in the art of conversations, intel gathering, and overall information related skills. I need you to investigate a name for me. But do so quietly. I will tell you their name, and I want you to investigate those related to him. Not him personally. Keep in mind, this is nearly impossible to get information. You might have to actually pay them for it." Twilight instructed.
"Understood. Any place to start?" Yang asked.
"Two places actually. Though I hope you get all the information from the first. Since the second one will be a bitch to say the least." Twilight admitted. "Firstly their name."
"Adam Taurus." Twilight whispered very quietly in her ear.
"Alright. And those places?"
"Atlas and... well... Go to a place that you take by train. It's not an ordinary train, so appear fragile and poor, or they won't let you on otherwise. Wearing something animal related might help. When you get there, it will be hell in back. So destroy everything there, as soon as you are done. Make sure to distract the people there to help those children. Or you might have to resort to murder itself." Twilight explained slightly carefully.
The group blinked at oddly menacing aura coming from Twilight. Whatever was there, pissed her off badly. "To put it bluntly, what is it?" Glynda asked.
"Based off of Twilight's explanation..." Yang said with a grimace, "A slave camp of sorts. And since it's a train based from Atlas, I assume a slave mine owned by the Schnee Dust company."
"Will you destroy the camp like Twilight asked?" Glynda asked.
Yang gave a determined if grim smile, "Definitely. Whether or not it's legal to do it. If I murder everyone, I can also get away with it. Without breaking their own law. Even if this wasn't what I wanted my afternoon to be."
"Will you give me any instructions?" Qrow asked curious.
"No. You are fully under the wizard's control. I cannot instruct any orders to you at all." Twilight said, "That said, though the only request I have, is that you keep everything you just heard under wraps. I cannot trust you that you will listen, but I can atleast try to hope that you will not speak up." Twilight admitted.
"I will not hide everything. But... somethings I can hide." Qrow admitted.
"Than that is enough for me."
"Alright. Well, the tournament you mentioned is tomorrow is Mantle, shouldn't we... you know, get going there?" Qrow asked.
"Alright. There is no need for you flash your badge Qrow." Twilight said, "I called them in a moment ago."
A few minutes later, the sound of a VTOL arrived at their home. As it landed, Twilight and Ruby climbed on board.
"Where to?" The pilot asked.
"Mantle. We are participating in the tournament." Ruby said.
"Really? Our boss is also going to watch the tournament. I will convey the message to him as soon as we got there." The pilot mentioned.
"Thank you." Ruby said with a smile.
"Well Qrow. I think this is where our paths will split for now." Twilight said as the VTOL began to lift off.
"We will meet again in Vale." Twilight shouted over the roaring sound of the engines.
Qrow merely nodded as he watched the duo leave Patch for Mantle by VTOL. He watched as Ruby waved at him for a moment, right before the hatch door closed. He watched as the engines change from hovering mode to flying mode, causing the VTOL to blast off towards Mantle.
He then turns around to see Fria ready to move towards Patch's airport. He nodded as he also noticed a much happier looking Glynda walk alongside Fria also towards the airport. He glanced at Tai's home as he closed the door and locked it. Tai nodded at Qrow as he too walked with the group towards the airport.
"I guess this is where my path will also split." Yang said as she sat on her motorcycle.
"Yeah. Please don't kill too many." Tai asked hoping.
"Nah. I cannot promise that. Those scumbags of the Schnee company deserve it. I will wear my serpent mask during this whole situation. So hopefully I stay unrecognized." Yang denied his hopes.
"Then take this." Fria gave Yang some sort of tail, "This is the real tail of a serpent. You will be able to get through their customs better."
"Thank you. I wish you the best of luck getting together a freedom force. You too, dad with saving lives hopefully." Yang said as she waved goodbye, she then started her engine and drove off into the distance.
"Welp. Although it's early, let's begin to prevent the future Twilight fears for Vale." Glynda admitted.
"Yep. Good luck switching everyone's training from basic to hellish." Tai said, he then waved at Glynda as he took a different plane to go to Vacuo.
"I just realized that Twilight's request is not only hellish for the student, but also for me. UGH! The paperwork is going to enormous." Glynda groaned at the realization.
"But hopefully it's worth it. Atleast you have something to work with. I am going to get a group together from the ground up." Fria said with an optimistic smile.
"I don't want to be that guy, but I am still going to ask. Are you sure this is going to work?" Qrow asked skeptical.
"If it doesn't, we are doomed."
Author's Note

Next Chapter
