My reasoning for posting twice in one day? I really don't want to write out stuff for V6 because goddamn, that part is so boring. Still, it's necessary. Just trying to get V6 done so we can finally go to Atlas, where everything is cool asf.

Cordo is the most hilariously designed character I've seen. Short angry military lady with a big mech to match her big ego.

Enjoy!

Skye watched as Blake decoupled the empty cars. They slowly got smaller and smaller until they were no longer in view. Originally, she had planned to go with team RWBY, but Qrow refused to let her.

"Team JNPR still needs someone to watch over them, and team RWBY already has me," he had said.

Now, the train sped away. Jaune, Nora, and Ren stood with her, each silent, knowing that their friends were risking themselves excessively, but also knowing that it was necessary. The silence was a little eerie after the fighting that they had gone through just a few minutes prior.

After a few moments, Skye turned around, "I'm gonna head to my compartment. You should too." The last thing that JNPR heard was her soft footsteps slowly trailing away.


After around 30 more minutes, the snowy landscape cleared up, the mounds of white snow slowly growing smaller and smaller to more controlled paths. In the distance where the sun was setting, they could see the ocean glittering, reflecting the orange light of sunset. It wasn't until the sun had almost fallen behind the horizon that they could see the silhouette of the city.

The train screeched to a halt as they pulled into the station. The doors hissed open and everyone filed out. The Argus station was built the same as the Mistral station, so it was relatively simple for them to leave.

Seeing the actual city, Skye almost gasped. Argus was beautiful. Snow looked like it glowed off of the roofs of the buildings. Icicles glittered against the setting sun. Evergreen bushes were topped with frost. Trams floated around, carrying people to wherever they needed to go. People of all kinds, Faunus, humans, young and old, wandered the streets, carrying groceries or walking with their friends, chatting about anything, really.

"Wow..." In all her life, she had never seen anything so modestly graceful. The closest thing was the infinite expanse of space. But after living in it for more than six years, anyone would get bored of the stars. No place on any planet, moon or otherwise had a place like Argus.

Jaune tapped her shoulder, "C'mon, I know where we can stay." She snapped out of her trance.

"O-oh, right. Lead the way then." He stepped forward and led them through the city. Each building was designed very classically, and Skye couldn't help but look at each one of them. The design base was the same, but she worked out minor details that separated the different kinds of buildings. Houses were on the smaller side, but were by no means small. Each one had multiple stories, with different ornate fences and windows. Stores were large and tall, often with massive signs that displayed the shop's name.

Finally they reached their destination. Jaune scratched the back of his neck nervously, before knocking on the door.

A warm voice called through the door, slightly muffled, "Coming!" followed by footsteps. They heard a latch turn, and the door creaked open, revealing a blonde woman of average height carrying an olive skinned baby.

"Hello, what can I do-" she started to say, before looking up and seeing Jaune. Her casual tone of voice and formal demeanor changed to one of familial love and recognition, "Jaune! It's so good to see you!"
