Mark Temple: Part 2

Chapter 23: Mark Temple Part 2

The Prowler

POV: The Reds and Blues, Teams RWBY and JNPR

Premise: The Reds and Blues endorse the candidate Robyn Hill for a seat on the Atas Council. Carolina reflects on the past...

It was about twilight, as the Prowler flew over the cold icy tundra of Solitas. Remnant's shattered moon hung low in the sky, the northern lights were shining with it.

"Whoa..." Donut muttered, as he looked out the window of the ship, "Beautiful."

"Seems a little Nordic to me." Doc muttered, "Like Norway, Iceland, Denmark, etc."

"Perhaps some red lights would be better, that's my opinion though." O'Malley added

"Makes me want hot chocolate." Grif said from the cockpit

"Ditto." Yang added sitting next to Grif

"I thought you guys already saw the night sky up here?" Weiss questioned them, "I mean, you guys were on Solitas getting dust remember?"

"We were." Tucker replied, "But it was daytime and we didn't even stop at Atlas or Mantle."

"Heard the view is amazing though." Carolina added, "Gonna have to have a look at it once we arrive."

"You know there's a saying where you only see Atlas once in your life." said Weiss

"With our luck, we'll probably see it a billion times." Simmons jokingly replied

Just then, Lopez entered the room, "[Hey guys, we're arriving right now. You might want to see this.]"

The Reds and Blues, and huntsmen all looked at one another before flocking to the cockpit. They all noticed a massive floating city in the clouds, Atlesian airships in the sky too.

"Holy shit..." Wash muttered

"Is this heaven?" Sarge jokingly added

"They don't call Atlas 'the city in the clouds' for nothing." Weiss explained

"Wow! It's amazing!" Ruby shouted with glee

"We have to meet with Robyn in Mantle." said Locus, "Where's that in Atlas?"

An uncomfortable feeling swept across Weiss' face, "You might want to look down."

The Reds and Blues looked down to see a city just underneath Atlas itself. It looked like it was a rundown, steampunk version of the Bronx.

"Whoa." Grif muttered in a less impressed way, "Looks like a dump."

POV Change: City of Mantle

"I always knew there was a divide between Atlas' social class." Simmons muttered as he and his friends all walked through Mantle's alleyways, "I never thought it was physical too."

"You could say that." Weiss replied, "The relationship between Mantle and Atlas has been...strained for a while."

"Hopefully with the reforms and upcoming election, we can steer the two into a better tomorrow." Blake commented

"Yeah well their won't be a tomorrow if Jacques gets on the council." said Wash

"So where are we supposed to find Robyn?" Ruby asked

"According to the intel we gathered." Simmons began, "Robyn is holding a rally in downtown Mantle, that's where we'll announce our endorsement of her."
