Hello everyone! I had planned to release this over a week ago and a lot had happened to where the drive to write or do anything was kind of gone. I apologize though.

The title of my story and ship was Amethystlover02 idea. Since it is new territory for me with using RomanxPenny it might take longer to pull out chapters. RubyxRoman is my usual ship though I am sure most of you already know that! I hope you enjoy!

"You... You want us to kidnap someone?" Neo asked looking rather bored with the idea.

Junior shook his head, "I don't think that is the best idea... It's like you're begging every single huntsmen and police officer to chase us."

"I agree. Are you bored? Have you lost your freaking mind?"

Roman put out his cigar.

"I want to take someone more high profile. To get more leverage."

Junior set his beer down and scooted backwards in his chair.

"I'm out."

Roman glared at him. Neo stood up and finished off her beer.

"Me too. I'm all for killing without leaving evidence but this is a live person. I don't want to be a babysitter."

Roman scoffed at their disappointing statements.

"Why are we doing this for leverage? The Vale underground is ours already."

Roman cleared his throat and ignored Neo's question.

"I already compiled a list of possible hostages."

He slammed down a three inch thick binder.

"Are you fucking serious right now?" Junior asked.

"Very."

"Alright... Is Ruby Rose part of that list?" Neo asked, "Any of them? Because if they are I'm not doing it. I will quit and move."

"They've been after us for two years already."

"Team RWBY and team JNPR are off limits."

Junior sighed with relief. The look on Neo's face said she was still undecided as was he. Roman always came up with insane things to do and now he wants to kidnap? That wasn't exactly their thing.

"Come on guys! Where's your sense of adventure?"

"I think I need something stronger than beer," she said.

Neo skipped through Junior's kitchen into the living room. Both men could hear her digging through his liquor cabinet.

"I found it!" she called.

"Dammit Neo! You drank all my tequila last time! Save me some!"

She sauntered back into the kitchen with two shot glasses and a bottle of tequila.

"I'm sharing this time."

Neo poured two shots and started drinking from the bottle. After a minute she put the bottle down.

"You can speak now."

"It's a wonder your liver hasn't melted."

"I'm losing patience here!" she yelled.

"OK, ok. Let's go through."

They spent an hour going through the binder.

"That one looks dumb."

Roman arched ah eyebrow.

"She's insanely strong. She's the one with the swords."

Neo shrugged.

"I wasn't there when they went for the warehouse," she said, "Explain to me what happened."

Roman went on for twenty minutes. Junior and Neo continued taking shots.

"She's like nineteen now?" Roman asked aloud without looking in the binder.

"She doesn't have a birthdate in here. Her bobbed hair makes her look like a child."

"We are looking for someone to kidnap, not critazite their clothing."

"She might be strong but she looks dumb," Neo said, "She looks like she would be the easiest to get in my opinion."

Junior pulled the binder and stared at her picture.

"Is this recent?" he asked.

Roman shrugged, "It was on the black web. I paid money for it."

"She lives in Atlas."

Roman looked at Neo, "I want you to find out her habits and see where she's at."

"I can do that."

Roman grinned at Junior, "Where's your ladies at? I would love to question them."

The club owner rolled his eyes and picked up his scroll. He waited a few seconds while eyeballing his friend.

"No answer."

Roman stood up and grabbed his binder.

"Is it agreed we are OK with this?"

They nodded.

"She's friends with Ruby."

Roman shrugged.

"I don't see the problem. If the girl lives in Atlas and visits regularly here, then she could get lost in between."

Neo shrugged and left.

"You're an idiot."

"You always say that but I always come through don't I?"

Junior nodded hesitantly.

"If you need me I'll be at your bar getting drunk."

"You mean feeling up my bodyguards?"

"No, no. They have useful information."

Neo watched the streets. She had learned the girl they were after was actually in Vale at that moment. She had learned some unsettling information like General James Ironwood basically was her shadow. She had no intention of calling and letting Roman know.

If he failed, she was going to watch him burn. Roman's requests were getting out of control lately.

Fucking idiot. I asked the shadiest motherfuckers out here and barely learned a thing. She could be anywhere. There's so many red heads it's unreal.

She looked around to see a hot dog stand and a milkshake stand. Neo shrugged and hit the hot dog stand first.

"Shouldn't you be at home doing homework?"

Neo cocked an eyebrow.

"What the fuck does that mean?"

"Your a kid. Go home."

Neo reached in the back of her pants and pulled out a pink and white gun pointing it in the man's face.

"I'm twenty one asshole. I want a hot dog."

The color drained from his face. He made her food the way she wanted. Neo paid him and headed for the milkshake stand. The hot dog man closed all his stuff and left. Neo grinned feeling proud of herself.

Jackass.

She sat on the bench watching as people walked by.

The most noticeable thing about her was her eyes. Her eyes glow like a computer green screen. It's so weird... I don't even remember ever seeing her... Probably because she doesn't stand out.

Neo finished off her hot dog and looked to the right to see a tall, thin woman coming her direction. She didn't think anything of it until she saw her eyes. It was the same bright, neon green that Penny had. Neo's jaw dropped open once she realized who it was. She looked nothing like her picture.

Oh my god... Roman's Intel was really, really off. She's stunning!

Penny Polendina was no longer that childish looking kid in her picture. Her hair was to her hips before it started twirling in long spirals. She had freckles on her cheeks and nose. She was smiling and minding her own business. She looked like she was extremely approachable.

She was almost down the street turning the corner when Neo remembered what she was supposed to do. She left her milkshake on the bench and took off after Penny. Penny was already lost in a sea of people. The shorter woman looked around frantically becoming more angry at herself for getting distracted.

Damnit, she had to go down the busiest street. That's what I get for gawking at her like I had never seen another female in my life-

BAM!

Neo hit something hard and fell to the ground. She looked up to see Penny standing there.

I think I busted my lip. What the hell is she made of?

"Are you ok?" Penny asked crouching down.

"I'm fine. Wasn't watching where I was going."

"Are you lost little girl?"

Neo's eye twitched and she looked upward. Penny looked like she was really concerned.

"I'm older than you."

Penny looked at her like she didn't understand what was going on.

"Are Penny Polendina?" Neo asked.

"Y-yea."

Neo grinned, "I would like you to come with me."

Penny shrugged, "Ok."

"She's taking forever. I wonder where the hell she is? She hasn't even messaged me."

Roman looked at his scroll with a worried look on his face.

This isn't like her. I wonder if she ran into problems with the police or she just couldn't find that girl.

Roman got up and walked around the table. He grabbed his scroll again to look. She definitely didn't message him. He pressed her picture to give her a call when the door to the house swung open. He watched as Neo walked through with a smug look on her face.

"Did you get anywhere?"

"Oh, I did."

She let out a cackle and he looked lost by the cockiness she was displaying.

"Penny, you can come in."

"You found her?!" Roman asked looking slightly shocked.

Roman was waiting to see a short girl with an orange bob and a bow in her hair. Instead, he got the opposite. The tall and thin Penny walked in. She had an innocent look to her and she didn't look like she was alarmed in any way. She offered Roman a heart warming smile and waved to him. He opened his mouth and shut it.

He made a face like he wanted to ask if it was really her but Neo nodded seeing the look on his face.

"Oh, don't worry. It's her. I asked her and she told yes."

Roman had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life.

Wow.
