The streets of Vale were dead by the time Yang arrived at where she needed to be. It was late out already, the sun having set a long time ago and street lamps came to life illuminating the road for any late night drivers. Yang could only recall the lone taxi driver going down the opposite side of the road as she sped down on her yellow motorcycle with a scared Neptune hanging back behind her like a child clinging onto their mother.

She was starting to think this addition to their little investigation into Roman Torchwick and the White Fang was becoming redundant. Like he was some sort of dead weight who didn't contribute anything although they had just departed from Beacon Academy just minutes ago only. As she rode deeper and deeper into the industrial sector of the city, her speed gradually increased, the law having no affect on her conscious because who was going to catch her at this late of the hour?

"Yang shouldn't we slow down?" A awkward smile fixated upon Neptune's features as he pleaded with his driver.

"Nuh uh! What are you? A pussy?" She exclaimed in a cocky demeanour slightly tilting her head at her passenger.

Soon the all too familiar large alleyway, large enough to have a road lead through it, was coming into view, a way to scare Neptune she suddenly increased the speed, the sudden jerk from the force made Neptune hold on for dear life even more onto her. But alas it was not to last she slowly squeezed the brakes forcing the motorcycle to stop eventually but something wasn't right with the place.

Usually it would be more lively with patrons waiting to enter the establishment. She gets off, Neptune still in shock for a second stuck in place like a statue on her motorcycle until he got a hold of himself.

"My friend should be here..." She throws off her motorcycle helmet putting it onto the seat. Walking towards the familiar big metal gates of Junior's club. "Yang I don't think your friend is here..." Neptune joined her staring at the area which had been now covered in yellow police tape like some sort of spider web. Dark patches of dried brown splashes

From a corner a lone police officer walks out cigarette in mouth and baton in hand. He looked tired with large bags under his brown eyes as if he had been living off doughnuts and coffee without sleep for a week.

"What the fuck you kids doing here? Scram!" He yells at them wagging his baton as a threat as if they were some sort of vermin or pest to be rid of instantly.

"Hey you know what happened here? Lookin for the guy that owns the place..." With reckless abandon she approaches the officer who didn't do anything to react, just staring at the girl before him.

"Yeah, we raided the place and found nothing! Although we did take down his whole gang if cronies for the most part by sheer number of kills..."

That must be why there was so much splashes of dry blood everywhere she thought to herself. Neptune comes up from behind her intent on not being a complete useless handicap this whole while.

"So where's...uh...who was your friend's name again...?"

"Junior."

"Right, where is he or did he..."

"Fuck if I know!" The officer yells out throwing his arms to the side. "Those 4 idiots we hired literally killed everything in sight then got caught looting the place! Ask them! They said they were huntsmen form beacon and you 2 look too young to be huntsmen."

Yang immediately knew who they were, best not to ask them because they genuinely scared her but what the hell would the 4 violent musketeers of Beacon Academy be doing here with Junior? Maybe there was more that meets the eye, some truth to her sister's suspicious. Hell she was pretty suspicious of them in the first place in her own right.
