*Third Person POV*

"Hello there, knight and pawn of Y/n Gremory."

The male shadow looked down on the two members of Y/n's peerage from his lofty perch, his hand tucked into his clothes. Pyrrha and Jaune stared back, looking up at the figure in the trees.

"Where's the other one?" Pyrrha asked, "And where's Nora?"

"My partner is... around," He answered, "She should be bringing the others, soon."

As if on cue, there were footsteps in the forest, quickly coming towards them. They turned towards the tree, as the other members of Y/n's peerage and Rias' peerage came tromping into the clearing. The second shadow leapt out from the trees above, landing next to her male counterpart.

"Is everyone here?" The male asked his partner.

"Yep, I got everyone."

"Good, let's get a move on."

They turned and jumped down from the tree, kicking up dust as they landed. They began to walk away from the large group, deeper into the forest.

"Hey, where are you going?!" Yang yelled.

"Follow," The male said, looking over his shoulder, "The master would like for us to bring you to him."

They all looked wearily between themselves, exchange looks of distrust and suspicion. The looks all stopped, as Ophis began to walk towards them, leading the rest along with her.

Little did they know, they were not the only people following the shadows through the forest. Behind them, hidden in the trees, a large figure in a trench coat spoke into his collar.

"I've located the boy," He whispered, "I'm moving in. See you soon, Master."
