Jack Schnee [RWBY]

Chapter 39 - Research, Developments, and More

[Slightly later... Jack POV]

I guess it's about time, I actually went to go see my sister instead of looking at her from behind my disguise. I leisurely walked to where she was stationed and was lead to a waiting room. There was a substantial amount of Atlas guards patrolling the area, but I guess that makes sense considering they have the Fall Maiden here. Not only that, but they also have arrested Olga as well. Maybe spending some time in jail will chill him out a little. There was nothing to do, so I decided to make some tea for myself and Winter. It didn't take long for Winter to arrive to meet me. I placed a cup in front of Winter and sat down across from her. She took a sip and visually relaxed with the taste of the tea.

Winter: You're amazing at making tea as always.

Jack: Well, I've had a lot of practice and Klein (the butler) is a really good teacher. Anyway, how is it serving under General Ironwood?

Winter: It's great to be serving under a man that wants to make the world a better place and protect the people inhabiting it. After leaving, I feel that this is where I belong and I'm happy I was able to find it.

Jack: I think Beacon is becoming my new home now. I'm happy to be able to spend my day's side by side with them while learning to become a huntsman.

Winter: Why did you want to become a huntsman?

Jack: I wanted to prevent horrible disasters from occurring and save people from the forces of evil.

Winter: Like a hero of justice.

Jack: I don't think I meet that bar yet in terms of strength or character right now, but hopefully I'll reach there someday.

Winter: How's your team?

Jack: They're an interesting group of people, to say the least. Olga is very annoying, over the top guy that borderline obsessed with ladies. He's so thirsty all the time, it's insane. I can only wonder what he does when I'm not around him. Eve is a smart, studious, and generally quiet person that has excellent skills with a crossbow. Finally, Kim is a beautiful, strong, and kind person that I'm happy to have by my side.

Winter: It seems that you and Weiss are doing pretty well at Beacon. I met with Weiss earlier and she was talking all about her new team and how she's not the leader of it.

Jack: Oh, I forgot to mention that I'm the leader of my team. However, team RWBY is a danger magnet if I had to describe their team. I'm not saying they're not strong but I feel like serious events always happen around them.

Winter: Weiss was telling me how most likely someone on campus is disguising themselves as Calamity.

Jack: Calamity?

Winter: That's what Weiss named the guy who attacked that woman at the dance and fought against you.

Jack: I can't believe they named him so quickly.

I don't know how to feel about this nickname.

Winter: Atlas is getting busy looking for traces of Dark Phantom, Calamity, and the people related to them.

Jack: Calamity isn't as dangerous as Dark Phantom since he hasn't hurt anyone right?

Winter: That we know of yes, but he is very dangerous so if you happened to run into him don't engage him alone.

Jack: Don't worry I won't do something so reckless as challenge him alone. I mean he's just so powerful that I would stand basically no chance with his invincibility and special powers.

Winter: Just be careful, he seems to be connected with the Dark Phantom too.

Jack: An invincible warrior and a master thief working together seem like a hard team to beat.

Winter: I have my hands full at the moment.

Jack: Well, its been fun chatting with you Winter. If you want to meet the rest of my team some time, then just call me. Bye.

I walk out of the room and could instantly feel a strong tug to my right. Amber was in that direction, I could feel it. However, there's no reason for me to find her at the moment, not to mention that I probably don't have the clearance to access it either. I make my way to the library to keep my word with Chet. I searched through many history books trying to find out what happened to him. There were many theories about what happened to him. Some say that since they never found his body that he lived happily ever after while others say that he must've been killed and was never seen again. It seems the Unshakable Hero didn't get his redemption like I was hoping for after all. It's a shame that things had turned out the way they did. I left the library went to the training grounds to practice my skills. I was surprised to see that Jaune was already there working hard to improve. I trained with him and headed back to my room for the night. On my way there Kim called me and told me that Olga was released from Atlas's custody which was good since we would have to leave soon to go on that mission. I went back to my room to rest up for the night wondering how this mission is going to go.

[Ozpin's Office]

Ironwood: She's clearly hiding the identity of the assailant from us.

Ozpin: It's not that strange since we haven't gained her trust nor saved her life. If someone saved your life and asked you to do something for them, would you do it?

Ironwood: That isn't the issue. If we knew then he could be taken in and get more information on what's going on with our enemies.

Ozpin: We've been given enough information at the moment. The two people she described are here for the tournament and we've been keeping a closer eye on them because of their connection to the victim at the dance. It seems that we need to be monitoring them 24/7 because they definitely are planning something big in the future. We'll need to keep Amber away from them because there's no telling what will happen if they meet again. Also, I'll take it upon myself to train her since I'm the most qualified and I can keep an eye out for anybody who wishes to cause her harm.

Ironwood: I don't like this but that seems like our best course of action at the moment.

Ozpin: Things are starting to turn, I wonder how the pieces will all fit once it's over.
