Roman stomped in frustration as he smoked another cigar, with the White Fang soldiers beside him, they could only have wished to have been on the other aircraft. As he sat quietly, looking over towards the pink, brown hair girl piloting the plane, his pants began to vibrate as he took out his scroll. As it extended to reveal its crystal interface, a face appears, surprising the man.
"G?!" He asked, with the ship beginning to move as the young girl jumped upon hearing what her boss has said, she turned to look over towards the criminal, trying to see if he wasn't pulling her hair and it was just a joke.
"Roman, I've heard you've been commissioned for your specialities." The man said, with a shadow covering his face, the voice alone was enough to lift the frustrated spirits of both Roman and Neo.
"It's been years since I've last seen you! How has it been?" He said, joking as he slicked back his messed up hair thanks to the intervention. The man does not react.
"Just answer the question dammit!" He said with Roman sighing, the criminal only leaned on his seat as it now looked like he was in bed.
"Shesh, always so straightforward! Well, whatever, I'm currently working with the White Fang and their leader Ada-" The White Fang soldiers behind caused a commotion behind, not wanting the criminal to expose their leader, the man, G, accepted his first answer anyways.
"anything else?"
"Nothing else. By the way, I've settled down for the short term if that answers your question..." He said as both Roman and Neo already looked contented with the answer.
"Good, good, you're becoming one of us, not anymore a... traveller... aye?" He laughed as the man stayed silent, and as they said their goodbyes, the call ends as Roman began typing a message to the man without the soldiers noticing...
"Got hired, Cinder Falls, Adam Taurus, destroy Vale, steal something. New employees."

The sirens of police filled Ruby's ears as she thought of Penny. She surely saw Penny get cut by that hooded man, but why did she seem so fine?
She racked her head for answers, yet as she saw her sister and Weiss running towards them, she pushed them at the back of her head as she greeted them.
"Look Weiss, it's not what you think, she explained the whole thing. See, she doesn't actually have a bow, she has kitty ears and they're actually kind of cute..." Ruby quickly appeared in front of the ice princess as she helplessly tried to explain the situation to her as fast as possible before Weiss could confront Bla-
"Weiss, I want you to know that I'm no longer associated with the White Fang. Back when I was with the-" Blake walked up to Weiss, who still had a stern look on her face, the faunus now also trying to explain everything well before Weiss could do anythi-
"I've been looking for you for the last 12 hours! I gave you some time to think about it all, but after you didn't come back the day after, we just had to go search for you. And in those 2 days, I had the time to think about it... and honestly..." The two held their breath as Weiss paused dramatically.
"I don't care." The two looked at the girl in white, surprised.
"You..."
"You said you're not one of them anymore, right?" Weiss asked, with Blake slowly shaking her head.
"I mean..."
"Ah-bahp-bahp-bahp! I don't want to hear it. All I want to know is that the next time something this big comes up... you'll come to your teammates. And not some..." She turned to look at Sun, who could only smile as he was treated by some medics. Weiss moved forward and sized up the monkey Faunus, "You know, I was already pretty okay with Yelena, but you? Nope." Weiss said as she started listing off everything wrong with Sun like an Aunt on a family reunion. Yang and Ruby chuckled as Blake shifted her head towards the white bunny, she already being content with what Weiss had to say and began walking to her.
Yelena didn't receive any scars during the fight and just sat on a stack of wooden crates as she waited for the police to set her free. Her father had already disappeared well before the police showed up, but Blake could still remember the feats they had made with just their semblances, from creating a small blizzard storm, perfectly copying Yang and Free's fighting styles, as well as impaling and piercing through a bullhead with just pure strength...
She stood in front of Yelena as the two stared at each other, and after a minute of silence, only the sound of investigators looking at the battlefield, Blake ask the white rabbit, to which the latter tensed up...
"Who are you?"

As Skullshatterer walked into a room, they saw yet another hooded figure similar to them repairing a batch of weapons, with their retractable blades on the table beside a grinding belt.
"Where have you been? Misha." The latter asked as they finished screwing their weapon, they stood up and approached the former Skullshatterer, Misha, showing that the two were similar in height, although the latter was just an inch or two taller.
"Hmm..." Misha grunted as the figure passed by them, placing down the weapon in a plated armoured luggage. Turning to look at Misha, the figure noticed the wear and tears to the other's armour.
"You can't just keep helping the White Fang behind our backs. Remember our agreement," they said as Misha could only stomp their feet in frustration.
"You once said, 'An eye for an eye, as things should be.', where is that now?!" Misha said, yet, as they did, the figure darted forward, much faster than even Misha, they gripped their hands onto the former's shoulders.
"Because this is not Reunion. This is a pale imitation of our cause! Reunion's cause!" The figure shouted, causing the other to stiffen up, "Reunion protected our kin, they avenged those that had fallen from Ursus' tyranny. This guise is no more than just that. The White Fang are willing to turn others of their own into paving their false minds!"
Yet, as the figure argued with Misha, they stopped and pulled down their mask, revealing a boy with silver hair and bear ears, many scars covered his face as it extended down into his body armour.
"Please, these men do not have the Reunion ideals. They will do anything to become what I believed in, but I can see it clearly Misha... They are a false movement. Their leader, they aren't like Buldrokkas'tee, the aegis of the infected. No, he will use us as puppets." The boy said, once more holding the mind of Misha in a state of questioning. However, as Misha thought about it, a door knock snapped them out of their trance as the boy put on his mask. Turning to open the door, three figures stood in front of their room, one wore glass slippers, the other had emerald hair, and the last had steel armour covering his arms...

"Your face! What happened to your face Penny?!" A shocked voice filled a car as it drove down the streets, on one side, Penny covered half her face, and on another, a man wore a snow-white coat and dark leather gloves.
"N-nothing sir... hicc!" A sudden hiccup blurted out of Penny, causing the man to turn in suspicion, the girl covered her mouth, revealing the metal face that peaked out of her false skin...
"You were never good at lying. Nevertheless, I will handle everything from now on. Pietro would be shocked when he sees you like this..." The man sighed as Penny only stared out of the car, wondering where her friends are...
~~~Author's Notes~~~
This is a very scuffed and anticlimatic ending... I can't think of anything else to say about this epilogue. Honestly, I can't think of anything else to add apart from what's there to say. Also, Skullshatterer sounded really stupid when he differentiated the White Fang and the Reunion, but all will be explained when the story reaches it...
Anyways, thanks for reading, and see you on Volume 2 or my other work The Worlds of Liberty!
