RWBY The Champion and The Monster (RWBY x OC's) [On Hiatus]

True Colors

After the opening, Oscar Pine, who is currently letting Ozpin take over, and Qrow Branwen and Rody Azuris, with Isabella Diaz having taken over half of his face appears and are seen sitting together. Qrow takes a sip from his cup.

Qrow: Things aren't looking good, Oz.

Ozpin: Ever the optimist. (sips from his cup) While I would not say our current predicament is... ideal, I think we can both agree that the situation could be much worse. Humanity is a resilient force.

Isabella: True. But from what Qrow's been saying about the Huntsmen... It's concerning to say the least.

Qrow: Guys, pro Huntsmen like that don't just bite it all at once. Salem's powerful. It seems like her reach is growing by the day. What does that say about Humanity?

Ozpin: That there are indeed a misguided few who have filled their hearts with malice. It doesn't take a great number of people to cause harm, but I still believe there are far more people in this world willing to prevent it.

As Ozpin is about to take another sip, Ruby Rose is heard walking into the room.

Ruby: Um, excuse me?

Rody: Hey Ruby.

Ozpin: Ah, Miss Rose, join us. We were just about to gather everyone to discuss our next steps.

Ruby: Oh, uh, great.

Qrow: Something on your mind kiddo?

Ruby: Uh... uh, it's... if it's okay to ask.

Qrow: Of course.

Ruby: Well, uh... we've been talking about the Relic at Haven... and the Spring Maiden, but... what about the Fall Maiden?

Ozpin: Cinder?

Ruby: Does that mean... Salem has the Beacon Relic?

Ozpin, Isabella, and Qrow share a brief look with each other.

Ozpin: Very astute, Miss Rose, I was wondering who would be the first to ask. No, thankfully she does not. It's true that the Relic at Haven is very much at risk, and for now, that should remain our primary focus. Let's just say I made finding the Relic at Beacon a... bit more challenging than at the other schools.

Isabella: I should know. I helped come up with the idea to help you hide that one differently than the other ones. Even if I helped you with the idea, it's very clever, should take her a while to find it.

Ozpin: (chuckles) Good to know. 

Ruby: Oh. (sighs in relief) That's good to hear.

Ozpin: It is, but let's not forget the challenges that still lie before us.

Ruby nods.

Isabella: Now is there anything else we can help you with?

Ruby: Oh, uh... well, I did have one more question.

Ozpin: No, my cane is not a Relic.

Ruby: I have no more questions.

They all giggle.

Rody: I always did wonder what the significance of the cane was. You never seemed like you needed it to me.

Ozpin: Yes, while this cane is indeed very precious to me, it is also just that - precious to me. While I admit it still has a few more tricks up its sleeve, I can firmly say that being a Relic isn't one of them. Now why don't you run and get the other students?

Suddenly, Qrow's scroll is heard vibrating. He takes it out from his pocket to see "LEO LIONHEART" calling. He takes the call.

Qrow: Yeah? ... Okay... yeah, we'll be there. (Qrow hangs up)
