-Fenrir Lake: Start of Summer Break-

Small explosions at the side of the lake, Adam Taurus jumping around as Marquis keeps throwing grenades at Adam for training. Adam cut a few grenades then swiftly protect himself with Wilt as the explosion had been absorbed. Adam then using after images to confuse Marquis as he's using a standard handgun to fire at Adam who blocks it with Wilt. Using the stored up energy to increase his speed and power by slicing a giant boulder in half when he uses his Semblance. Two youths that are dressed up like preachers, Corsac and Fennec Albain, with two short knives trying to pierced through Adam. Blocking their attacks with Wilt then roll forward to allow momentum all three to smack them with Blush. One of them got up to charge at Adam. Placed both Wilt and Blush, Adam grabs one of the Albain Brothers, in a game of strength till Adam headbutts him. Bending forward, Adam rolls on top to kick the other brother who's getting up, down. Grab the remaining brother by the waist to suplex him on top of him. Rolling back by using the folded brother as a base to roll him to his knees to stomp him at the back of his neck to roll forward to grab both Wilt and Blush. A spider web grabs Wilt away from Adam to grab it. The weight of Wilt was too heavy for the Spider Faunus, Trifa, to hold it. Adam use his Semblance to increase his speed to rush towards Trifa, then grabs a long stick to increase the power of it through Adam's Semblance. Striking Trifa and breaking the stick into dust on contact. Adam grabs Wilt but a Bat Faunus, Yuma, kicks Adam's wrist to slam Wilt down on the ground and holding it down. Letting go of Wilt to grab a nearby palm size rock for Yuma to punch it. Adam absorb the vibration of the punch through the rock. Adam pushes Yuma then uses the rock as a melee weapon to break it into dust through his Semblance. Adam quickly grabs Wilt and withdraw it then swift into a ready position as everyone is down, excluding Marquis. 'My bad' Adam quickly check up on his comrades.

'That fucking hurts!' Yuma is rolling on the ground with a destroyed rock dust all over his face, complaining of the training.

'I'm sorry Yuma! It's just that when I'm in combat, I'm in my comfortable space' Adam apologies to Yuma.

'Just because you're part of Sienna's Jaegers group, doesn't mean you can go all out at us' Trifa also complains about Adam's fighting style.

'You know Brother Adam, you didn't need to stomp on my head!' Corsac join in the complaints.

'And throwing you on me doesn't help' Fennec struggles to get up as he's breathing heavily.

'When you're part of the Jaegers, he pretty much in his own league with our Elites' Marquis defends Adam's combat style.

'Just because you're part of the Jaegers and being in a combat school, doesn't mean you're top shit' Corsac continue to complain about Adam.

'Well I gotta get ready for this mission across Anima. Looking for the Mistral Pound and finding Moon' Adam talks about his mission.

'Yo! Heads up!' a female voice came flying by till she crashes onto the nearby tree. 'Damn! That hurts like hell!' the short brown hair girl with two curve swords that could be attached to the handles of her twin magnum pistols. 'I gotta work on my landings' she shakes it off.

'My dear!' Adam run up to her, 'Are you alright?!' Adam offers his help.

'I'm alright...' she accepts his help, 'Just falling'

'Falling?' Marquis is confused as he looks up to see a gliding down black smoke, 'Is that your ride?' Marquis points up.

She looks up to see the smoke coming down, 'Yeah...' pulls out her gun to shoot it down.

The black smoke moves and keep avoiding each shot till it landed next to the nearest tree, hiding to reveal a terrified young lady with breaded up orange hair and holding a lantern in front of her, black and orange dress with sneakers. Stuttering, 'Jill! Just... just because I can turn into smoke do... doesn't mean you can shoot me down!'.

'Oh come on, Abi it's for fun!' Jill smiles at Abigail Bones, 'It isn't the first time I was going to shoot you' Jill has a twisting sense of humor.

'And what's your name my darling?' Adam asks for Jill's name.

'Jillian Silver, but you can call me Long Jill Silver' bows to Adam's White Fang group.

'And I... I'm Abigail Bones, from S... Signal Academy' Abigail nervously waves at the White Fang group.

'I'm Adam Taurus. At your service' Adam bows as he introduced himself.

'I'm Marquis Blackwool' Marquis waves at them.

'Yuma Wayne' Yuma two finger salute to the ladies.

'Trifa Morales' Trifa kneel to both girls.

One of the priest looking Fox Faunus walks up to them, 'I'm Fennec...'

'And I'm Corsac...' he walks next to Fennec.

'We're the Albain Brothers' both talk in unison.

'Sweet! Twins!' Jillian walk up to Albain and looking at the attire of both brothers who seem to be embarrassed about a women expecting them. Jillian goes up to Trifa and Yuma, 'And a Bat Faunus? I know a person who weaponize bat wings but never seen an actual Bat Faunus...' Jillian pulls out Trifa arm, 'And your blood veins are very weird, what kind of Faunus are you? Some kind of bug?' Jillian continue to look around Trifa.

'Um... a Spider Faunus' Trifa nervously answers as Jillian looking under her arms.

'Not my favorite Faunus may I add' Marquis admit of hating a Spider Faunus, remembering about his fight at Willow's Manor.

'I know a Spider Faunus, not much of a talker, but she's a great girl!' Jillian is obviously talking about the only person who fought Marquis.

'I... I can totally relate to it. S... since we tend to hang out a lot' Abigail talk about Charlotte Webster.

Jillian walk up to both Adam and Marquis, playing with Marquis' wool, and Adam's horns. 'Do people call you Devil due of your horns? And I love the wool of a Sheep Faunus. So fluffy!' Jillian's eccentric nature

'Well I do tend to look like an actual Devil, but I don't recall being called one though' Adam answers as he's confused of Jillian's nature.

'So...' Jillian walking back, 'What bring you here at Fenrir Lake?' Jillian asks the White Fang group.

'Training' Yuma answers as he walking next to the girls, on his knees and holding both of their hands. 'But why such lovely beauties such as yourselves are here?'

'Well...' Jillian lifts up Abigail's skirt which cause her to scream and using her Semblance to flee to the nearest tree, 'We're here because we both tend to love to travel around, causing trouble, being ourselves. Well, hoping Abi here could just loosen up more way than one' Jillian winks at all members.

'H... hey! D... Don't lift up my skirt! I... I've been traveling nonstop!' Abigail is frustrated over Jillian's action. 'A... and plus, I... I haven't bathe for days!'

'Yeah...' Trifa looks disgusted, 'I was gonna comment on that, but why?'

'Abi here is nothing more but transportation, but her hobby whenever she wants to release stress is something I don't like personally' Jillian fills them in.

'S... since one of my teachers at Signal tends to be late in his own lessons. A... and I tend to give soak by his booze, s... so I'm always soak in it' Abigail added more.

'Well I don't mind the smell' Adam walks up to Abigail. 'I'm pretty much use to it during my childhood'

'Speaking of which, why haven't you bathe, Adam?' Trifa turns to Adam.

'Well he had been living in a tribal camp all spring after all. And I honestly doubt that they're hygienic to begin with' Yuma answers. 'But I bet the ladies are wild in bed' Yuma elbow pokes the Albain Brothers.

'Why are you poking up?' Fennec asks Yuma with a confused look.

'Because you two need some fun outside of the Church of the Nine-Tails' Yuma place his arms around them.

'We do have private lives, Yuma' Corsac speak up.

'If you're training, you must be doing something important. Are you part of any the Academies?' Jillian asks the White Fang.

'Brother and I don't tend to such Academies. We were busy to the Church rather than violence' Fennec answers.

'Bullshit!' Yuma spoke out loudly.

'Hey!' Adam yells at Yuma for a racial term.

'Sorry, Adam' Yuma apologizes to Adam. 'I seen both of you bulking up. Hell, these robes of yours are hiding your muscles' Yuma call them out.

'It's call exercise and keeping fit' Corsac simple it down to Yuma. 'At least it's a lot better than getting our asses kicked by married women's partners'

'At least I got their numbers' Yuma jokes around.

'I think the number they gave out is 911' Trifa answers. 'As for Yuma and I here? He got rejected from Haven Academy due of bad attitude and past history of violence. I do try to tend to go to a Combat School but due of being bullied, I couldn't handle it and just ran' Trifa gives out their short backstory to Jillian.

'And you two?' Jillian points at Adam and Marquis.

'We're part of the Atlas Military School' Marquis answers then turn to Adam, 'Adam here is on top of both Faunus History and Combat classes' Marquis talk about Adam being on top of his classes.

'That was last year, Marq. And I'm in second when it come to Combat. Flair is on top of that class overall' Adam corrected Marquis.

'Top of the class!' Jillian eyes sparkle from it. 'Then how about we have a sparring fight? Aura Break Rules' Jillian suggest a fight.

'I think it would be great for us' Adam agrees with the idea. 'And how about you? Go to any combat schools?'

'Besides Abi here? I go to Beacon Academy, more death means more fun!' Jillian laughs it off.

'I'm a proud swordswoman. I never plan on having a gun since it's too much trouble to carry and I have a Semblance that covers it' Winter explain why she doesn't have a gun, 'But there's something prideful of using a sword in battle and winning'

'I agree' the woman smiles then got up, revealing that she has a sword of her own, moplah sword, and to reveal that she's a peahen with her feathers tail are slightly above the floor. 'Let me introduced myself...' she walks on the stage with her hand extended, 'My name is Iris Bifrost'

'Well I gotta head back to my job where I love to meet more swordswomen that I would love to face' Iris smiles down at Winter, 'And maybe we should fight again, one day'

'During the Vytal Festival when I go into Atlas Academy?' Winter suggest to Iris.

'Wow! I never thought an Academy Student can beat all members of the White Fang' Yuma casually mentioned the White Fang which Trifa hits him for it.

'Cool! You're part of the White Fang?' Jillian is happy over it as Abigail is afraid of hearing White Fang. 'We're part of the Frost ourselves' Jillian casually revealing themselves as members of the Frost.

'J... Jill!' Abigail shout out of hear, she hides behind Jill, 'W... we should kill them or t... take them in?' Abigail is trying to convince her who didn't regret it.

'Come on, Abi! If they're mentioning themselves as White Fang, it should be fair that we're working for the Admiral' Jill eats her bento box.

Both Adam and Marquis went from casually smiling to hated expression to draw out their weapons which the remaining members were confused at first till they remember and got into a ready position. 'Then... ' Adam placed his sword at Jillian's neck, 'You send Sable at Mrs. Schnee's manor and kidnap Moon from us'

Jillian continue to ignore Wilt, 'Come on, Adam. I kicked your ass already and literally 90% of your group here. So what more can you lot bring?' Jillian spoke truthfully. 'But since you're asking about your rabbit friend, I suggest going to Narren Gold, if she wins a Pony Race'

Adam is confused from Jillian being comfortable of revealing herself. Marquis spoke up, 'Why are you telling us about your employment?'

'Well...' Jillian look at her additional boxes which she has a smug look at them, 'First, I haven't used my Semblance which I could kill any of you without a problem if I wanted. Secondly, I love to steal from everyone and everything, it's a habbit of mine. And thirdly, why not?'

'Why... not?' Marquis looks at Adam as they're still confused about her being too reasoning

'I'm one of those thrillseekers and an adrenaline junkie where I love being chased and getting nearly caught. There's fun to it' Jillian continue to eat her bento box. 'And I heard your tiger lady had a hunter which I want to whoever to start chasing me' Jillian smiles.

'B... but Jill! Wh... why do you had to throw me un... under?' Abigail asks her.

'Why not' Jillians turns to Abigail then remembers, 'Oh!' turns to Adam, 'Before you want to provoke a murder here, do you wanna give Abi here as fuck?' Jillian starts laughing.

'J... Jill! O... out of all the times! Y... you had to...' Abigail placing her lantern forward as if Adam is about to pounce on her but his focus is towards Jillian.

'At least he deserves something for kicking your ass' Jillian grins at Abigail.

'I would rather be torture than fucking her' Adam accepts torture over the other option. Adam turns to his comrades before looking down as he's putting them first to withdraw. 'She's pretty to look at but I'll stick with the torture'

'I'll post that up, and it'll be open if we want to bring you into the Pound' Jillian nods at Adam before getting up. 'Well time to go, Abi. We gotta start running like hell' Jillian holds Abigail.

'I... I should be good for a good couple hours' Abigail gives her a time stamp. 'B... bye, everyone!' Abigail uses her Semblance to transport both Jillian and her crates to northeast from the cut boulder.

'Why did you let them go, Adam?' Trifa asks about Adam putting Wilt away.

'Because she's right. If I did provoke her, she would had killed us and I didn't want to endanger you lot over my rash action. And we could send Sienna's personal hunter to chase her down' Adam explain his reason.

'And two, that Abigail girl brought me down and Jillian made it look like nothing to beat the four of you. Our chances winning wouldn't be in our favor' Marquis agrees with Adam letting them go. 'But the good news that we got a location, now' Marquis pats Adam's back. 'Let head back to Argus. We should tell our friends' Marquis turns to the four, 'And you four should report the incident to the hunter'

'Agreed' Corcas bows as they start packing up.

Fennec checks his wallet as his Lien is gone, 'Brother mine, did she stole your Lien?' Fennec asks Corsac who immediately pulls out his wallet to reveal that his Lien is gone.

'Adam...?' Marquis turns to Adam who, along with Yuma and Trifa, are checking their wallets.

'Lady Schnee? Or Flair?' Adam asks Marquis as if he knows that they're gonna ask for a loan.


-Argus Train Station: An Hour Later-

Adam is looking at his Grimm mask that Raven gave to him, 'I don't think I could see myself wearing this, at least for anything special' Adam turns to smile at Marquis.

'Well I should get one too if you'll start wearing it' Marquis elbow pokes Adam. Both boys chuckles.

'Hey!' the commanding tone of a young female police officer having long brown hair and a brown skin complex, appear out of nowhere. 'I've been looking for you two!'

Both Adam and Marquis placed their hands up high as if they're in trouble. Adam turns with a nervous smile as he accidentally drop his mask, 'Look officer...'

Placed two photos of both Yuma and Trifa on their scroll. 'Have you two seen these two around?'

'Oh!' Adam is surprised, 'I think I saw them around but I don't know them personally' Adam lies in front of them.

'Well...' the police officer looks closely at Adam, 'I guess a Faunus who appears as good looking at you, and dress as nicely as you can't be that bad'. She extended her hand, 'Name's Autumn Maples'

Adam shakes her hand, 'Adam Black', unknown to him, his Grimm mask fell.

'Marquis BaBa' Marquis offers his hand which she's reluctantly shakes.

'Charming' Autumn looks at Adam, 'So when was the last time you see them?' questions Adam.

'I think I saw them going down south from here? Maybe a pub, my darling' Adam nervously smile.

'Yeah... I think I saw them entering a pub' Marquis added, which she looks suspicious at him.

'Why are you giving me an evil glare?' Marquis asks Autumn about her look.

'Because I can trust him but you... I don't know, but something tells me that you might be lying' Autumn continues to look suspicious around Marquis.

'And that would be...? Your hair' Autumn answers as she expect Marquis black wool that serves as his hair. 'It's like you're hiding a bomb in there'

Adam placed his hands over Autumn's as he's trying to avoid pulling it off a wool, 'Because his Semblance is literally called, Wool Bomb'

'Oh! My apologies since last month, we got a man who was assume to be Headmaster Callows but it turns out he uses that to lure out many victims to call anyone who he come across Anima. So when we had to look at Tyrian Calllows info, he was no such thing of being a Headmaster. But the Grimm took him away, maybe they eaten him somewhere' Autumn explain her reason of being suspicious around Marquis, 'So like Mr. Pickerel, I expect the dangerous looking one!' Autumn points at Marquis' nose.

'Isn't Detective Connors part of that case? Because I do recall she was there to begin with' Adam remembers a Detective her trip at Atlas. 'And you're literally picking a Faunus with a weird hair rather than a guy who literally has horns?' Adam points at his horns

'Detective Connors was part of it, but Mr. Pickerel came in and took over her case. The only thing Connors ever did was supply Atlas officers for the aid. She's nothing more than a conspiracy nutcase' Autumn continue to talk about Connors and Callows then looks at Adam's head. 'Wow! You really do have horns'

Marquis looks confused, 'You just noticed that now?'

'I was distracted by his eyes' Autumn replies to Marquis confusion.

Adam looks over her as he see a group of people walking towards him, someone grabs a weapon then throws it towards him. Everyone is wearing casual clothes. Adam slight push Autumn to Marquis and pulls out Wilt to deflect it as it force him back. 'Question...' Adam yells out as the weapon is Worthy the small war hammer, 'Is this gonna be how we treat friends?'

'You can't blame that one on me. It was Honeycomb here who uses her bees to throw it!' a loud boisterous voice is hear to reveal to be Loki Flair.

Autumn is surprised about the voilent nature of their greets. 'You! Why throw a weapon towards your friend!' Autumn starts barking at Loki who looks confused since he admits of not throwing it.

'Oh! Sorry!' Madison grabs both hands of Autumn, 'I throw it'

'Well... do you have a reason?' Autumn asks Madison reason.

'Ah!' Mary eyes sparkles as both girls are holding hands. 'This is so ship worthy! May we know your name?'

'OIT, Autumn Maples' introduced to both Adam and Marquis. Autumn then looks at Mary due of her height. 'Damn! You are one scary lady'

'You're telling me!' Adam is carrying Worthy overhead him with Wilt lifting it. 'She has her hand with straight to my ass!'

'Sexual harassment!' Autumn then pulls out a ticket and writes one for Mary. 'How often does she do this?'

'Let see...' Adam walk to Loki as he grabs it to lift the weight off of him, 'She does have a habit to force people to start kissing to the point of sexual harassment' Adam fills her in as he looks over to Madison, 'Did you really have to throw that to me, Maddie?'

'My apologies' Madison bow to Adam.

'Where's Winter?' Adam asks as he looks at the Bullet Parade till he noticed two more people, Zozo Geel the Gorilla Faunus, and a gothic lolita looking girl, Bean Jackson 'Zozo? And...' Adam is confused as hell to see Bean. 'You...?' Adam turns to Marquis to thumb points at Bean who shrugs it off since he doesn't know. Adam turns to everyone else excluding Autumn to point at her.

'It's absent girl' Harriet answers, 'Bean Jackson'

'The girl who only passes through bribing the school?' Adam asks with a confused expression.

'My apologies again, but I'm the one who invited her since she got nothing to do at Atlas and looks lonely' Madison taking the heat.

'We were surprise ourselves when Honeycomb here had invited her' Loki talk to Adam.

'Aren't you forgetting about someone!' an accent voiced came behind Zozo, Cedric Montevista, who's wearing a fancy suit. 'It's the Frog Prince himself, it is I, Cedric Monetevista!'

'And this jackass here just tag along' Loki is annoyed over Cedric.

Marquis leans to Autumn, 'You might need another ticket for him. Like Mary, he too has a history of sexual harassment'

'I'll get right to it' Autumn starts writing a ticket.

'May I properly introduced myself?' Bean walk up to Adam, Marquis and Autumn, 'I am Bean Jackson. And I'm the main character of this story. I may look weak right now, but like every good hero's journey, I'll be ten times powerful than any of you combined'

'Absent Girl here is just a deluded bitch' Loki cursing her out.

'Side characters like you lot will pretty much serve as the interesting fun characters as I look with a plain look' Bean continue to talk with grand delusion.

'Did you really to bring those two along?' Adam whisper in Madison ear

'Montevista? Hell no! But Bean is someone for the Humans to take along if we need to saperate from them' Madison answers as she show disdain towards Cedric.

'All aboard!' Winter enter the scene as she present train tickets till she saw both Autumn and Bean, 'I covered the girls... who the hell is they?'


-Random House-

Placing Lien cards on a table while Jillian starts laughing while drinking beer. 'I can't believe a Faunus can have this much dough on them!' pouring beer down her throat.

'But... but did you really need to steal their money? Be.. Because I think you're too greedy' Abigail is worried of Jillian habbit of robbing everyone she meets.

'It's fun robbing people, there's nothing more enjoyable of stealing. But at least what I do for a living is better than what do' Jillian trying to justify her reasons. 'Look out there!' Jillian points outside.

Outside of the house, decapitated heads of everyone who lived in the house are placed on top each fence pole. 'What's... what's wrong with that? We bring in Faunus aga... against their wills to work in the mining towns of the P... Pounds. What... what's difference between us?' Abigail doesn't see the difference between herself and Jillian idea of hobbies.

'I rob. You kill. There's a huge difference between us' Jillian continue to talk down to Abigail.

'Don't... don't forget that you like ra... raping anyone, including me' Abigail still to justify her actions.

'Whatever, at least you clean the beds, right?' Jillian left her to go upstairs, passing by a couple bedrooms, three children's room covered in blood. Jillian looks at the infant room. 'Hey, Abi! Did you call in for an infant package?' Jillian turns to the stairs.

Abigail talk from the kitchen, 'Oh! I... I thought we weren't bringing anything back?'

Jillian heavily sign with a disappointed tone, 'Where did you put the head?'


-Warehouse-

Both Yuma and Trifa are running away from the police officers, being shot at. They turn to a dead end. The police shot Yuma's wings to made sure that he won't fly away. 'Ready men!' the Chief of Police points his sword towards the Faunus duo. 'Aim... and... fire!' the Chief of Police orders the police officers but nothing. He looks at them all to reveal that they're seeing multiple eyes looking down on them. Everyone is looking at it with fear and unable to move. 'What the...'

The multiple eyes came down to meet them forward, they tried to run but the eyes folded in to reveal Iris holding both swords then swiftly killed every police officer in site, leaving the Chief of Police on the floor. 'Sorry if my comrades were bothering. I'll...' Iris lift up her sword, 'They won't be bothing you any longer', Iris slashs the throat of the Chief of Police. 'Wayne! Morales! Report' Iris pulls out a cloth to start cleaning her blades.

'Um... Ms. Bifrost. We got some information on more members on the Frost' Trifa spoke up to her as she's intimidated by Iris. Iris looks at Trifa with no interest as she's cleaning her blade.

Yuma sees Iris not being interest in the info, he walks up to her. 'Hey! Trifa here wants to tell you want you need to hear!'

Iris turns to pull up her peahen feather tails to cover the light to only see Iris eyes and feather eyes to glow, which cause Yuma to be afraid as Trifa put her head down. Iris walk slowly towards both of them which they walk back till their backs are on the wall. Placing her sword onto Yuma's neck, 'Listen here, Wanye. I'm not like any other Faunus who wants equality, which I never care for, but just because I look disinterested doesn't mean I'm not listening. To me, war is my peace. But my job here is to hunt down anyone. Never question anyone who's in the Jaegers'. Iris is tempted to kill Yuma on the spot but as the shadow cover both of them, the light swiftly reveal them. 'Now...' Iris at the other end of their direction. 'What are my targets?'

'Jillian Silver! Also goes by Long Jill Silver!' Trifa shouts the first name out of fear.

'And Abigail Bones. Last seen location, Fenrir Lake. They went up northeast from the cut boulder, Ms. Bifrost!' Yuma also shout the other name, out of fear.

'Thank you for the info'. Both of then look up to reveal that she's not there anymore.
