The Masters of Remnant [Discontinued]

Tactics of War

(3rdPOV)

Shirou and Rin were waiting in the lockers for their names to be called out, they already knew who their opponents were for the doubles as they decided to set up the match making.

(Flashback)

Ironwood: we still have no idea what the infiltrators want. Do they want the relic?

Glynda: They will want the remaining magic that Autumn has.

Qrow: Maybe both. We'll have to be careful who we pick as our 'guardian'.

All the adults were arguing, Ozpin just sat on his chair, he noticed that Shirou and Rin were being quiet.

Ozpin: You two, might you know what the final goal is.

Rin: We have no idea-

Shirou: Yeah I know what they want.

Every just looked at Shirou in shock, Qrow decided to take another drink but remembered that Shirou drank it all.

Ironwood: what is their plan.

Shirou: It's the fall of Beacon, they'll get both the relic and Autumn, they might also have other miscellaneous task they can complete when the academy falls.

Rin/Glynda:....

Ozpin: how do you know?

Shirou: I was told by an inside man, he's name is Cú Chulainn, he's also Salem's Lancer class servant.

Ironwood: Then why should you believe him! He could be playing along until they string a trap.

Shirou: Just because Salem is his master that doesn't mean he's loyal to her! Remember General, servants are their own people, and just like us they can betray their allies! Wouldn't you agree Ironwood!

James was taken aback, he was left speechless, knowing that he was referring to him backstabbing Ozpin to the council. Qrow just smirked as he walk over to join the group again.

Qrow:  Hey, we still have the infiltration problem. Since you have the double agent, kid do you know who they are.

Shirou: No but I do suspect four particular students from Haven. The team that has Mercury Black and Emerald Sustrai.

Rin: Why would you suspect them?

Shirou: Mercury has cybernetic legs and from the tournament report, they signed him without any cybernetics. They are also highly skilled, I'd say they're almost as skilled as Qrow.

Ozpin: Then what do suggest we do about them?

Shirou looks at Rin and nods, in return she stepped up.

Rin: We suggest that we eliminate the two and their team from the tournament before they get to enact their plan.

The adults look at each and then at Ozpin, who has a smile on his face.

Ozpin: very well, tomorrow you two will remove the two from the tournament and then Qrow I want you to do a quick investigation on them.

Qrow: Sure thing Oz.

Ironwood:I will increase security in the halls during the night then.

Shirou: We should be leaving, bye to you all.

Rin: Farewell.

The two leave, preparing themselves for their battle tomorrow.

(Flashback End)

Shirou and Rin Make their way to the arena while Oobleck and Port announce the two teams.

Port: Welcome everyone to the first match of today. Today's fight should be an interesting one.
