This is a canon divergence AU where Clover lives, Salem doesn't come to town, everyone stops acting stupid and realizes Ironwood's insanity and saves both Mantle and Atlas, and Neo doesn't get away with the relic of knowledge. With everything in Atlas back on track, Team RWBY, JN_R, Oscar, Penny, Qrow, and Clover make their way to Vacuo. Along the way they encounter many obstacles. Like, of course, Grimm; but also three pesky hyena faunuses, their lion leader, and the most feared criminal in Vacuo...the Mistress of Mischief. They also make new friends and learn a little more about each other.
