RWBY: Penny and the Tin Man

Search and Rescue

When we last left are hero's George Bolt created quite the uproar in the library but not nearly as big as the one his team did when they discovered he was missing.

"THAT LOW DOWN GOOD FOR NOTHING DIRTY APE! WHEN I GET A HOLD OF HIM HE WILL REGRET EVER BEING BORN! I MEAN REALLY I TAKE MY EYES OFF HIM FOR ONE MINUTE AND HE DISAPPREARS! I SWEAR..." Embers rant was cut short as Ruin pats her on the shoulder and shrugs before making several gestures with his hands.

"I don't have enough data to say for sure but. It seemed as if Ember could understand Ruin's simple gestures almost like another language." Penny thought to herself. She then decided it would be best to try and defuse the situation. "I am sure he is just lost, after all Beacon Academy is a big campus. Even when I use my GPS program I have lost my way a few times." She explains.

Axel nods in agreement before speaking himself. "Penny has a point. We need to hear his side of the story first. Then if we don't like it we can kill him."

"Fine but one problem, how are we going to find him? Penny just said she has trouble finding her way around in this place and we just got here. So how do we even begin to look for George in this massive place?" Ember complained.

The group breaks out into a heated brainstorming session. The ideas thrown around ranged from crazy to downright impossible. The group was getting no place fast and Ruin had long since lost interest in the conversation. So he had been staring out of the dorm room's window for the last few minutes. As a sniper he enjoyed mapping out the grounds in his head. Thinking of good vantage points and the best ways to attack and defend each location if the occasion came up. When he was nearly finished his attention was drawn down towards the ground and he noticed a pair of faunus like figures running out of the forest like they were trying to escape from something. He reached into his nearby bag and pulled out a pair of military grade binoculars to take a closer look. He soon noticed that the male faunus looked very familiar he looked just like George... With a pack of Grimm on his tail! Ruin began to flail wildly to get the attention of his team.

"Oh is this charades?! I have always wanted to play!" Penny declared in excitement.

Ruin palms his forehead and hands the binoculars to Axel as he push's him towards the window. "What is it Ruin? We are still in the middle our strategy meeting." Ruin then points him in the right direction. Axel then decides something must be up so he uses the binoculars to take a closer look. "Well look what we got here!"

"What is going on out there Alex did you spot him?" Ember inquires.

"I can't say for sure if it's him or not but one thing is for sure. It's time to suit up team, it seems killing him may have to wait."

A few minutes earlier we rejoin George as he is pulled down the hallway by his new rabbit eared companion.

"Hey what are you doing?! Let go, I can take them!" George says in a distorted voice.

"That's not important right now! If professor Goodwitch finds out you were fighting on campus, she will rip you a new one. Since I haven't seen you around before and you picked a fight with Cardin I am guessing you're new here. Last thing you want to do on your first day is get on Goodwitch's bad side. Well that or get anywhere close to Cail from team CRUS but she is another story."

George remembers Goodwitch from the information sheets he was given at the start of this mission. If it was her that was disciplining him he didn't think he would mind getting punished too much. Though of course he chooses to keep that one too himself. "Hey bunny girl, where are we going anyway?" George inquired.

"Anywhere else, what can't you hear them chasing after us? Also it's Velvet by the way, Velvet Scarlatina. How about you, do you have a name?"

"The name is George. George Bolt and who is chasing us?" As he says this he begins to realize how much his hearing has improved. It was almost like the world around him was filled with white noise. Out of the chaos he picks up loud footsteps joined by angry voices moving in their direction. He couldn't really make out what they were saying but. He could tell it was two of Cardin's team members and he could make a guess what they wanted from that. For a moment he wondered what happened to the third member of their group. He could only guess that the third member was attending to their injured leader.
