RWBY X MALE READER

Vol. 7 part, 1: The Greatest Approach.

(Sorry for the almost month and a half long break.)

3rd POV.
Atlas skyline.

Manta airships patrol the skies around the city of Atlas. As Maria pilot's the group's stolen airship toward the city, they are soon contacted by Atlas air control.

Atlas air control: "Manta 5-1, welcome home. Please continue your approach to Atlas docking bay omega 12. A security team will meet you there. Over."

Everyone aboard the airship all look at the large air fleet surrounding the kingdom's capital.

Ruby: "I don't understand. What's happening here? (Y/n), what do you mean by war?"

(Y/n): "See how the ships are positioned above the capital? They do that so they'll be able have the best tactical advantage, and if need be. Mostly helps with the rapid deployment of troops, so it's easier to police two cities when you have an armada of ships parked right outside. Not the best control tactic, but I guess if your always paranoid you make stupid decisions."

Jaune: "But we are here. We got the lamp to Atlas, so I guess we land and get some answers."

Weiss: "I'm not so sure. I've never seen our forces so aggressively before. If we land in a stolen ship, there's no way the security team will let us anywhere near Ironwood. They might even take me back to my father."

Blake gains a saddened expression, while Yang and Ruby look to each other, uncertain of what to do.

Blake: "So..."

Having an idea, Weiss reaches in her pocket for her scroll.

Weiss: "Winter!"

Bringing out her scroll, as Weiss speaks to Maria.

Weiss: "Put some distance between us and the fleet."

Maria: "You don't have to tell me twice."

Weiss walks to the back of the ship as Maria steers the airship toward Mantle. The people below wander the streets of Mantle, while Ruby and the others look through the windows. They fly past a couple giant screen on the sides of a skyscrapers with Ironwood's voice coming from it, catching Ruby and Yang's attention.

Ironwood: "...cannot express our appreciation enough. Many describe these as uncertain times, and while that may be the case for the rest of the world, I can tell you what is certain. The Kingdom of Atlas will remain strong, and it will remain safe. That is my promise."

Both sisters look saddened at seeing Ironwood's current state.

Yang: "General Ironwood. He looks..."

Ruby: "Tired."

Qrow: "James, what have you been doing?"

Four Atlesian Knight-200s are seen walking down a street as the civilians around them complain about their presence.

Civilian 1: "Ugh, not these again."

Civilian 2: "Why can't they just leave us be?"

A small drone floats along a sidewalk, while a pair of small children hide in an alley. One of the children picks up a rock and throws it at the drone, which spins around to look, prompting the children to hide against the wall and causing (Y/n) to ball his fist out of anger. Weiss stares sadly out of the Manta's windows with her scroll in hand, the device was set to call Winter, who doesn't answer.

Weiss: "This isn't right. None of this is right."

Once again, the airship was contacted by Atlas air control.
