Chapter 5: Meeting the "Cleaner". Teams are made.
POV Qrow
Qrow: "this better be important, Oz. You of all people should know how busy I am, especially since this is the day or Thorn's initiation for Beacon."
Ozpin (on scroll): "I know. And it is important. The night that Thorn has a melt down turns out to be the same night someone breaks into the Malachite house and even burns it down. I think that's too much of a coincidence."
Qrow: "I'd say good. Especially since all the things they did to him is still affecting him..."
Ozpin: "Qrow, I know how personal this is to you, but you need to focus. Remember, I just need you to check and see if anyone is there. If one of her pawns is there, don't engage."
Qrow: "No promises" *ends call*
As I get near the house, I noticed that I don't smell burning flesh... Dammit... Those assholes got away safely.
As I enter the house, I noticed the walls and ceiling are still intact, along with symbols on the walls... Shit... This is Roman's symbol...
I decide nows a good time to update Oz, as I bring out my scroll. However, the moment I do, I feel a massive amount of Killing Intent all around me.
???: "My oh my, if it isn't the famous Qrow Branwen. Now, what do I owe to welcome you to my humble abode?"
What I see in front of me... Is the biggest lie I've ever seen. He looks like a normal person, but just by looking at him, I can feel my blood freeze... If he works for the Queen, then this won't be easy...
Qrow: "So... Who are you?"
???: "Let's just say... I'm a Cleaner."
Just after he says that, I hear movement behind me, and I just barely got out of the way of a snake-like creature.
Qrow (mind): "Shit, the rooms are too narrow"
I start running out of the building, multiple snake creatures giving chase. Once I get out of the building, I take out my weapon, and convert it to scythe mood. However, it seems once I got outside, the snake creatures stop and disappears.
Qrow: "..."
I put back my weapon, and start heading back to Beacon.

POV Neo
Cause of a "certain incident" I was almost late for the initiation. As I make my way to the launch pads, I start looking around till I see (Y/n). Once I find him, I sneak up on him and jump on his back.
Thorn: "Whoa, what the-" *looks over her shoulder to see you* "Neo?! What are you doing here?"
I take out my scroll to talk to him
Neo: Hey again, (Y/n)! I'm going to be a student here, so of course I gotta be here 😀
POV third
Thorn: "Wait, you're a student? Why didn't you tell me yesterday?"
Neo: Sorry, I had some... "Business" to take care of.
Time skip to just before launch
Ruby (mind): "just gotta find Thorn! Just gotta find Thorn! Just gotta find Thorn!"
Weiss (mind): "hmm... I guess besides Pyrrha, I wouldn't mind being Thorn's teammate..."
Blake (mind): "I guess Thorn wouldn't be a bad partner..."
Yang (mind): "where are you, Thorn?... EmberDeath needs to be born!"
Neo (mind): "I hope I'm on the same team as (Y/n)..."
Thorn (mind): "where's the relic?..."
Surprisingly, Ruby ran into Weiss, making them a team, same with Yang and Blake (making the sisters sad since they might separate now from their brother).
RWY: "DAMMIT!"
Blake: "Whatever..."
POV Thorn
As I make my way to the relics, I feel someone jump on my back again. By now, I know who it is.
Thorn: "Neo? That you?"
Neo holds up a sign saying "Yup!"
Thorn: "I guess we're partners. Hope that's fine with you."
Neo: of course it's fine with me! I get to be in a team with you! I'm more then excited!
Thorn: "Well, let's get going to get the relic"
I begin making my way to the relics again with Neo on my back still.
Time skip to the relic sight
POV third
Yang: "RUBY!"
Ruby got her cape caught by a Nevermore feather, trapping her with Yang being unable to reach her.
???: "I SUMMON THEE, SILVIPER!"
Then, all of a sudden, a red and blue King Taijitu appears, wrapping around the Deathstalker.
(A/n): the Grimm you summon will be red and blue color palette, though I don't have a picture of one in that color
???: "Ruby! You ok!?"
Ruby looks up and sees you, her "brother", appearing in front of her.
Thorn: "This is why I say NO CAPES!"
Ruby: "Sorry!"
Thorn: "Whatever... Ok, let's get you out of here... Silviper, you know what to do!"
With the red half still wrapped around the Deathstalker, the blue half reaches towards you and leaves a blue glyph. When you step throw, another you appears, stepping out the way you entered the glyph.
The two Thorns then proceeds to rip off the feather that trapped Ruby in place.
Ruby: "Thanks, Thorn! But when did you kill a King Taijitu?"
Thorn: "You do know what's surrounding this place, right?"
Ruby: "Oh... Yeah... I forgot..."
Thorn: "oh, that's right" *looks towards the spot where the relics are* "hey Neo, got one?"
Everyone turns around to see Neo holding up a red Knight piece "relic"
Ruby: "Ok, everyone, let's head back!"
Everyone: "Right/Ok!"
Thorn: "ok, I'll scout ahead"
Ruby: "Careful, ok bro?"
Thorn: *stepping away from everyone* "Of course." *Holds hand out as a red and blue symbol appears on he's hand* "I summon thee, come forth Avion!"
Then, a small red and blue Nevermore comes out of the symbol, before it jumps on your back and a red light appears before the Nevermore disappears leaving a set of wings on your back, which you use to fly upward towards the tower.
Everyone but Ruby and Yang: "... WTF?!"
(A/n): Neo didn't say it, she just held a sign saying "WTF" on it.
RY: "... What?..."
Weiss: "DID HE JUST SUMMON A GRIMM?!"
Ruby: "Yup"
Jaune: "better question, DID HE JUST FUSE WITH HIS SUMMONED GRIMM?!"
Yang: "Yup, it's part of his Semblance."
Time skip to after Deathstalkers death
(A/n): you already know this song goes with this scene.
Yang is punching the Nevermore from the sky before it charged at her, catching her in it's beak with her forcing it open.
Yang: "I!" *Punch* "HOPE!" *Punch* "YOUR!" *Punch* "HUN!" *Punch* "GRY!" *Punch!PUNCH!PUNCH!*
Every punch was shot out with a shotgun blast. She then jumps off as it crashes into the wall, with Weiss running/gliding towards them. Yang starts running back with Weiss jumping over her and freezing the tail of the Nevermore, keeping it in place, she then makes her way back as well.
Once Yang reaches the group, she jumps on a Piller with Blake on the other one, tossing her her gun tied to her ribbon, making a sling shot. Weiss then creates a black glyph while Ruby jumps into the ribbon on her scythe.
Ruby: "Think you can make the shot?"
Weiss: "Can I?..."
Ruby gets a nervous look on her face just from that comment.
Ruby: "Can yo-"
Weiss: "OF COURSE I CAN!"
Ruby then reloads her scythe/sniper and gets launched onto the Nevermore, catching it's neck on her scythe. Once she lands on the cliff wall, Weiss creates glyphs running up the wall, letting Ruby run up the wall, dragging the Nevermore by the neck with her. Once she reaches the top, she decapitates the Grimm, with rose petals appearing on it.
Meanwhile, you and Neo were helping Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren up and getting to the cliff.
Time skip
Ozpin: "Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Pyrrha Nikos, Lie Ren. The four of you retrieved the White Rook pieces, making you team JNPR, Lead by... Jaune Arc.
Jaune: "Wha-..." *Gets knock down by Pyrrha by mistake*
They step off the stage after Pyrrha helps Jaune up.
Ozpin: "Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, Yang Xiao Long. The four of you retrieved the Black Knight pieces, making you team RWBY, lead by... Ruby Rose."
Thorn and Yang: "WHOO HOO!"
Yang: "Great job sis!" *Hugs her*
Ozpin: "Thorn Branwen, Neopolitan Torchwick, you two have retrieved the red Knight piece. Normally, you'd need a team of four, but we have an odd number of students this year, so you two will be the first two man team. You will be known as team TN (tan), lead by... Thorn Branwen."
Thorn: "... WHAT?!"
Just then, Neo jumps on him, hugging and kissing him, making Ruby, Yang, and even Weiss mad.
Ozpin: "This'll be an interesting year... And please, save it for the bedrooms, Mr. Branwen."
(A/n): that's the end of this chapter.
