RWBY: Purple Pheonix

Chapter Eleven - White Fang Versus Black Claw

Yang looked over at the brunette beside her, who's cheeks had grown pink. 

"Somethin' wrong miss Belladonna?" Yang asked "you're blushing." 

"You know why, Yang" Blake grumbled "let go of my hand." 

"No wa-" Yang was interrupted by an explosion. 

"That's close" Blake said "let's go!"

aw man Yang thought as she ran after Blake and I was just about to make my move.

When Yang and Blake got to the scene, the area was crowded with looting White Fang grunts guarded by White Fang armor. 

"We won't be able to take them on ourselves" said Yang. 

"Good thing back up has arrived" Ruby said from behind them. She was followed by Weiss. 

"Great" Blake said. 

"Have either of you seen Jet?" Yang asked "We could use the extra muscle." 

"Nope" said Ruby. 

"What's the plan?" Asked Weiss. 

"We go for the robots first, then hit the grunts" Blake said. 

"It took all of us to take down one last time" argued Yang "and I count three." "To be fair, Torchwick was a hell of a pilot" Blake said. One of the grunts spotted them hiding and alerted the others. 

"No choice now" the brunette noted, jumping out from behind the crates they had been hiding behind. Yang jumped after her, Ruby and Weiss right behind her. A spit second later Yang noticed the missiles that surrounded them, flying every closer. 

no way she thought how do we avoid this? 

She was afraid. The fear seemed to make time slow around the blonde. Suddenly the barrage explode without making contact. Yang and the others had been rescued by a masked, clad-in-black stranger, who now stood before them. 

"The Black Claw" Yang heard Blake mumble. 

They unsheathed their katana, which was pitch black, and leaped at the armored war machines. It was unreal, Yang only saw them swing twice, but two of the machines had been cut to pieces. 

"Yang!" Blake yelled, snapping the blonde back to reality. 

They were surrounded by White Fang grunts, this was no time to lose focus. Yang leaped to assist her faunus friend. She knocked over one grunt after the other with her powerful punches. With the loss of their third robot and their dwindling numbers, it seemed the battle had been won. That's when Yang spotted them. That girl, the one with pink and brown hair, and a red haired man wearing a mask. When Blake spotted them, Yang saw both anger and sadness in her eyes. Yang wanted to get revenge on that short girl, but to win this fight she would have to stay calm and watch Blake's back. 

"Adam!" Blake yelled coming crashing down on the red haired man. The girl tried to interfere but Yang stopped her. 

I just have to buy time for the others she thought. 

Blake was furiously attacking Adam, who was blocking with ease. "You've improved, Blake" Adam said, deflecting a volley of dust-bullets. He grabbed her by the throat, and brought her face close to his. "But I'm on a whole other level this time" he said driving his katana through her abdomen. Otherworldly fury surged within Yang. She had been angry over her hair before, but this was an entirely new level. Adam dropped her on the ground.

"You bastard!" Yang yelled. She leaped at him, but the girl kicked her across the face. Yang hit the ground hard. The duo slowly approached Yang, who was getting up off the ground. The stranger in black stepped between Yang and the attackers. Adam swung his katana at them but they parried, knocking him off balance. The girl countered with a high kick, but the masked one grabbed he leg and threw her away. Adam began to slash furiously at them, but they were able to block every attack. Yang spotted Blake from across the battlefield, and rushed to her side. 

"Blake" cried the blonde. 

She breathed a sigh of relief as she noticed the slowly rise and fall of Blake's chest. Yang glanced back over at the battle. The girl was furiously assaulting the masked one, who was narrowly dodging the attacks. Adam was just standing there, his weapon sheathed. He unsheathed it and sent a red blast flying at them. 

"Look out!" Yang yelled. 

The girl jumped away, but the Black Claw was consumed by the attack. When the dust settled, there was nothing left. Yang spotted someone standing on the far side of the battlefield. Ruby and Weiss had joined Yang by Blake's side. Adam noticed the person and readied his katana. Yang smiled, the cavalry had arrived. 

"Jet!" Ruby celebrated. 

In his arms was the Black Claw. carried bridal style. The mask was gone now, allowing her wavy brown hair to flow freely. Jet let her down, then drew his Purpura. 

"Please aid me in this fight" he said to the sword. 

"You should get out of here" the vigilante told him. He looked over at his friends. 

"Get Blake to safety" he ordered. 

"Do as he says" Ruby ordered, assuming a fighting position. 

"Ruby, a leader should always stay with her team" Jet said with a smile. Ruby sighed, then turned to address her team. 

"Yang, carry Blake to the nearest hospital. Weiss, keep in front of her in case of any more White Fang. I'll be two steps behind you" she said. Yang gingerly scooped up Blake. 

please she thought hang in there. 

With that, Team RWBY was on the move.
