RWBY: The Black Reaper

The next day, Mesa was with his team when he received a call from Ruby.

" Hello Ruby " Mesa greeted Ruby

" Hi Mesa, did you happen to see Blake? " A worried Ruby asked Mesa

" I saw her last time when I was with you, why?" Mesa replied

" She didn't come back yesterday. We are so worried for her" Ruby told him

" I see, don't worry Ruby, she is definitely okay. She is probably trying to sort her thoughts " Mesa comforted Ruby

" I hope so. We will look for her anyway" Ruby said

" We can help you if you need " Mesa offered his team's help

" That would be great, Mesa" Ruby replied with smile

" Okay, meet us in front of the dorms in 10 minutes" With that Mesa closed the call and then turned his head toward his team and said " Guys, we got a black cat to find, got any problem? "

" It is not nice to call her black cat, and are you seriously asking our opinions now? She is our friend of course we are going to look for her " Pyrrha spoke while the other two nodded.

After few minutes, team MNPR met with three girls from team RWBY. Mesa started with asking " Do you know where to start looking or a plan? "

" No, we thought of walking around and ask about Blake " Ruby said sheepishly

Mesa sighed and said " I thought so, we will separate in 4 teams. Each team will search in different direction. The teams are Ren and Nora, Pyrrha and Yang, Weiss and Ruby, and I will go alone. Any objection? " Mesa spoke

All of them shook their heads. And so, the search for Blake started. All of them started searching except for Mesa. He went toward his secret apartment and started preparing for tonight party.

Amidst the chirping of crickets and darkness of night, Blake was laying flat on her stomach on the rooftop overlooking the shipment of Schnee Dust containers.

"Did I miss anything?" A voice heard near Blake

Blake looked at the source of the sound to see the blond faunus standing next to her, she said "Not really. They've offloaded the crates from the boat. Now they're just sitting there."

"Cool. I stole you some food!" The blond faunus said as he showed the green apples in his arms

Blake gave him a questioning look and asked "Do you always break the law without giving a second thought?"

"Hey, weren't you in a cult or something?" he defensively countered which earned him an angry glare from Blake

Just as Blake glared at him, the winds blew all around them. They looked up to see a Bullhead's searchlights flashing around for a landing spot, as it was descending in the middle of the cargo containers and extending a ramp for a black hooded individuals with a metallic fanged mask to come out of.

"Oh no..." Blake said sadly

"Is that them?" the blond asked

While Blake was starting at the bloody wolf on the back of the men's outfits, she said " Yes ….. It's them"

"All right, grab the tow cables!" one of the white fang men said to the rest

"You really didn't think they were behind it, did you?" The blonde said

While Blake was staring sadly at the scene, she said "No. I think deep down I knew. I just didn't want to be right." she closed her eyes in despair, only to open them suddenly when she heard a new voice.

"Hey! What's the holdup!?" the voice said which made the soldiers look up at a human gesturing widely and coming down the ramp "We're not exactly the most inconspicuous bunch of thieves at the moment, so why don't you animals try to pick up the pace?" The voice belong to Roman Torchwick.

"This isn't right. The White Fang would never work with a Human. Especially not one like that." Blake said as she stood up and unsheathed her weapons, she then walked off the edge of the roof

The blond was alarmed by her action"Hey, what are you doing?!"

Blake fell to the ground in a crouch, then continued on to hide behind one of the containers, peeking around the corner to see Roman berate a White Fang member holding a coil of rope.

Roman was scolding and insulting "No, you idiot! This isn't a leash!" as he was looking around, Blake suddenly appeared behind him with her blade at his throat earning his attention at last "What the- Oh, for f-" he rolled his eyes when he was cut off by Blake mid-swear.

"Nobody move!" Blake ordered

The White Fang soldiers readied their guns and equiped their swords in response.

Roman said in response "Whoa! Take it easy there, little lady."

"Brothers of the White Fang! Why are you aiding this sc.u.m?" Blake asked the soldiers

The White Fang members lower their weapons a little at this development, unsure of what to do, when Roman laughed "Oh, kid, didn't you get the memo?"

Blake was confused "What are you talking about?"

Roman cleared her confusion "The White Fang and I are going in on a joint business venture together!"

"Tell me what it is or I'll put an end to your little operation." Blake demanded from Roman

Suddenly, the air was filled with more turbines blowing the wind wildly around the holdup. Roman looked upward and said "I wouldn't exactly call it a little operation..."

As he said that, Two more Bullheads were hovering above the heist, and as Blake watched in horror, Roman smiled and managed to fire his cane at Blake's feet, resulting in a large explosion.

Blake dazed but relatively unhurt, she quickly rolled and ran out of the way of Roman's continued attacks, flaming missiles were destroying cargo behind her as she was retreating behind more containers.

Roman was approaching slowly as he said "Here, kitty, kitty, kitty..." his taunt was interrupted when a banana peel landed on his head, causing him to look up and growl at the assailant.

The blonde lept from the container above Roman and dropped down on the criminal's face feet-first, rolling up and readying himself to fight.

"Leave her alone!" he said

The Bullheads opened to let more White Fang members descend on the scene, standing by Roman as he got up and said "You're not the brightest banana in the bunch, are you, kid?"

Suddenly the sound of clapping was heard in the docks followed with a voice speaking " Not bad, you have a future for circus shows monkey boy "

Everyone looked at the direction of the voice, only to see a man standing on top of the container, the man fully attired in black, no other colour could be seen. Pants, shirt, jaket, gloves and helmet, all were black coloured not allowing anything to be seen aside from the black, even the eyes holes in his helmet were covered with black glass making his eyes seem black as well. His clothes blackness varied from piece to another. But nevertheless they were all black.

Roman growled and said " Great! First a cat then a monkey, now a crazy idiot in black "

The man didn't seem offended by Roman, he simply spoke " You know Roman, you shouldn't insult who you don't know, you might meet someone very dangerous who is not as nice and open minded as me "

Roman furrowed a little and said " Oh! Is that so? Thanks for the advice, but it's not needed. Who are you anyway?"

The man said " Where are my manners? I forgot to introduce myself ! You can call me Black Reaper, I'm a professional killer, Nice to meet you all"

Upon hearing his words, everyone present paled in fear. Roman got scared then calmed down and asked the man " you are the infamous Black Reaper himself? The criminal wanted by all kingdoms?"

" In flesh " Black Reaper replied

" May I ask why are you here?" Roman asked worriedly

" I have a job to finish here " Black Reaper said as he disappeared from the top of the container.

Before anyone could react a thud sound was heard, Everyone trailed the sound source to see the white fang member closest to the black reaper was kneeling with his face staring at the rest of the white fang. His head was rotated 540 degrees and blood was coming out of his neck because the abnormal rotation has broken his neck skin and the neck muscles. Next to the man stood the Black Reaper staring at the rest of the white fang.

" My targets for tonight happen to be you guys. Nothing personal, I'm just doing my job. That being said, grip your weapons as hard as you can, work together, unite your strength and thoughts then come at me with everything you got. Tonight, we are going to dance until death hahahaha"

The only sounds could be heard were the Black Reaper sinister laugher and the blood drops hitting the ground.
