RWBY: Heroes United

Chapter 59: Stopping Squidface: Soul Calibur

Beacon Academy

It has been two days since the incident with Dr. Merlot and his mutated Grimm.

With in that time, James had learned about the Goo Merlot excavated, and made sure that whatever was left of the island was put under the Atlas Military's control, making absolutely sure that the "mutating goo" was only on the island in fear that Salem would learn and get her hands on it and the possibilities of creating new types of Grimm as it could mutate the most ancient and powerful.

Another thing was that due to the Breach, all the Schools in Vale have been shut down since people are still afraid which is attracting more of the creatures of darkness.

Right now at Beacon, the boys were doing basic training with the triplets while Yang was with her team on Patch, grabbing something from the Heroes United: Dust & Shipping Dust Company Headquarters, knowing full well how protective she is of the kids even when they are not their own.

Watching the three run laps around the Combat Arena, Ben, Zak and Rex began to figure out how to break the news to the others.

Flashback: Ingredients needed to get The Dimensional Hoppers home.

In the underground basement of Beacon Academy, the boys plus Ozpin were looking at Charmcaster who was looking Regretful.

"What is it, Charmcaster?" Rex asked.

"I have some bad news. The most important ingredient I need to get back home doesn't exist in this universe. I can try substituting it, but there's no guarantee that it would even work. Even if it did, it might just take us to a completely different universe altogether." Hope explained.

"What about Gwendolyn and Verdona?" Ozpin asked.

"I asked. They said that they've used the last of materials to get here, and they only have enough to return home." Charmcaster explained.

"Hope, are you absolutely sure you don't have a way to get everyone home?" Ben asked, glad that he can use her real name sense they're both nerds when it comes to Star Wars.

"One. I said you can only use my real name when we're alone or if we are doing Star Wars and two. Only person I know who could probably get us home would be Paradox, and possibly that System No. XX that made us fight in the Phantom Field." Charmcaster explained.

"So basically everyone is stuck here. Maybe I could use Alien X, but since there's an infinite number of universes, there is no guarantee that they'll go to the right universe." Ben replied.

"Either way, we'll have to break the news to the others." Rex added, knowing the others aren't going to like this.

"I'll tell them. I'm the reason why they're all here." Ben replied, not looking forward to this.

Flashback ends.

Back to the Present

Watching them running around, Ben began to once again try to figure out how to tell the others about this new development when Paradox appeared in front of the door.

"It's time." Paradox said, sounding more ominous and vague than usual.

"Time for what, Mr. Paradox?" Kitty asked curiously.

"Gather everyone who's not from this dimension along with everyone who you see as family and gather within the Clocktower, I've found a solution for both of our problems." Paradox ordered, getting a nod from the boys.
