Chapter 9 Locust Horde
As we begin our story we have Watts trying to find the Locust Horde to disscuss terms of Alliance to defeat the Huntsmen and Hunstresses and the COG soldiers that randomly joined the fray and are causing problems for Queen Salem.
As he approaches he is seeing the Locust take notice of him and keep an eye on him, Watts grows impaitent and asks to speak to their leader, a drone nods and signals to for Watts to follow.
Watts: So tell me can you speak basic english?
The drone looks back at him
Drone: *snarls and growls* Yes.
Watts:Ah good.
Then the drone points towards their leaders a 10 foot locust in all black armor and a damaged eye.
He hisses at Watts, Watts trembled a bit in realization this may been the dumbest thing he has ever done. The next leader steps forward being very bulk like in the torso but slim waist down and has a forked tongue carrying a double edged chainsaw staff.
Skorge lets out his wicked bone chilling scream.
Watts covers his ears hoping he will stop soon.
RAAM and Skorge both stare down Watts.
Watts: I am here to discuss terms of Alliance with you seeing we have a common enemy known as the COG, My Queen and I have our own forces who wish to destroy everything and control this world.
RAAM inhales and says: Serve the Queeen.
Watts: Is that a yes?
RAAM nods.
Watts: Splendid. My Queen wishes to speak to you.
A Grimm like oracle appears behind Watts and goes up to RAAM and Skorge.
Salem: Hello gentlemen, I am Queen Salem you will bow to me and do my bidding in destroying this world.
The Locust bow down and pledge their alligance to Salem, as they start painting their armor black and red to represent her colors thus they make their own helmets to represent red eyes and white heads for Grimm, the Locust were misguided without a Queen and are now in the presence of a Queen even more powerful then their first.
Watts: Welcome to our cause.
They keep their Hammerburst assualt rifles and Gnasher shotguns making them more powerful then the Grimm and White Fang and basically anyone else on Remnant besides Delta Squad.
As we watch Watts walk away and the Grimm Oracle stays behind to have Salem give the Locust orders to destroy Haven before the Students get there.
Salem: But do not harm Lionheart, he is the headmaster of that school.
RAAM nods as does Skorge.
Salem: Split your forces, you in the black whats your name?
RAAM steps forward.
RAAM: RAAM.
Salem: RAAM, take your half to Haven, and you with the staff whats your name?
Skorge steps forward.
Skorge: Skorge.
Salem: Alright Skorge, take your forces to Mangerie and wipe out anyone that stands in your way.
Skorge nods but RAAM and Skorge himself need directions to their destinations.
Salem sighs.
Salem: Let me send you some dropships from the white fang ok? Just hold your postions.
A few dropships come down and the Locust that usually pilot go inside the dropship and grab the pilots by their heads and snap their necks claiming their seats, the others paint their symbol upon the craft.
Salem: Ah...I suppose you can kill the white fang, they have no more uses for me, your destination should be programmed into the NAV computer now go and bring forth destruction.
The Locust pilot then attempts to lift off but can't, he looks for instructions and finds em and realizes he can't read.
RAAM grows impaitient and decides to shove the Drone out of the seat and try for himself, RAAM gets irritated once he also sees he cannot pilot the dropship til he accidently pushes a lever and the ship lifts off.
The Drone stares at RAAM as he glares back at him.
The dropship heads to the coordinates, Skorge is told to push the lever forward and does so getting his ship to its destination.
Once the RAAM's forces reach their intended area they are spotted by students, Salem then contacts them and tells them she sent them to early and recalls her forces back.
The Locust return to Salem somewhat irritated by this mistake.
Salem: I am sorry about that, but allow to make it right by sending you to destroy the COG instead ya?
RAAM shakes his shead.
Salem: No? You wanted to destroy Haven and Managerie didn't you.
They both nod yes.
Salem: I'm sorry but I need more time for my plan to fall through perfectly.
RAAM and Skorge look at eachother then look back to Salem.
Back to Carmine and his group in Patch with Yang and her Father Tai.
Baird: We going or what?
Cole: chill out Baird, Yang has to gather a few more things and then we can go.
Baird: Clay! Marcus! Dom! You guys ready?
Clayton: Ya.
Marcus: Yup
Dom: Ya.
As Benjamin and Yang are saying their goodbyes to Tai as they are gonna go to Haven Acdamey to meet Ruby and the others.
Tai: Please be careful
Yang: We will
Baird honks the horn.
Benjamin opens the door and heads out as Yang follows him to the truck.
Baird: We all good now?
Everyone nods and Baird puts the truck in gear and heads down the road.
Cole: You sure we collected enough gas for the tank on this thing?
Baird: Pretty sure..ya maybe I dont know Cole
Marcus: We better make it to Haven if we really wanna help them out.
Yang: Actually I have an idea, I know someone who can take us straight there.
Baird: Oh ya? Who blondie
Yang: My mother.
Baird slams the breaks and causes Marcus to kiss the top of the cab.
Marcus: BAIRD GODDAMN IT!
Baird: Shut up Fenix. Why did you say it like that? Is your mother a terrible person?
Yang: In a way yes, she runs a clan of bandits, they are not far from Haven.
Dom: This is gonna be awesome -he gently elbows Marcus-
As Baird starts to drive again he follows the roads Yang tells him to take.
Yang: Hows your fuel?
Baird: Just under half a tank
Yang: There should be a lil fuel station just ahead, I'd stop there if I were you.
Baird: Alright we will.
As Baird keeps going and Yang taps his shoulder to stop at the fuel station, she hops out of the bed and goes inside to pay for fuel and to grab a quick drink.
Clerk: What will you have lil missy?
Yang: A water please.
Clerk: coming right up.
Clerk kneels down to get her drink.
Yang glances over and sees a strange man at the end of the bar.
Stranger: Hey whats a woman like you doing all the way out here?
Yang: I am looking for someone
Stranger: But isnt it dangerous for a woman with your looks to be out here alone? You aren't to lean you're just right
Yang: Ya I get it, I'm good ok?
Stranger: And your hair -he reaches for it--
Yang grabs his hand and then glares and punches him in the face causing him to bounce off the floor into the ceiling and out the door and hits the truck.
Clayton: what the fuck?
Clerk: Thanks, he has ben driving me crazy, so who you looking for anyway? Also this is all on the house.
Yang finishes her drink.
Yang: I am looking for the Branwen Clan.
Clerk: Now missy you shouldnt mess with them, they aint nothing but trouble
Yang: I am aware, but I think I will manage.
Yang walks out and sees Clayton pumping the fuel, the stranger is slowly getting back up.
Stranger: Hey blondie.
Yang: Seriously this isnt over?
Stranger: You said you're looking for someone right?, I can take you straight there.
Baird: Alright get in the back.
The stranger gets in the back with Yang and Clay and Ben and Marcus and Dom.
Baird starts the truck and follows the strangers directions.
The Stranger says: Stop.
He gets out.
Stranger: I will be right back.
Baird: Something isnt right
Suddenly a group of people come out with weapons drawn.
Bandit: Man you guys are idiots.
Both Carmines in sync: Ah shit.
Marcus: Alright what ya want?
Bandit: Armor, truck, weapons, and the girl
Benjamin: Nope.
Bandit: But we are robbing you
Baird: And? Your weapons can't really harm us.
A bandit shoots Benjamin and the round bounces off.
Bandit: Welp we are screwed
Benjamin and Clayton both jump along with Delta squad and begin the beatdown on the bandits.
Bandit: You are all so dead when our leader finds out
Yang: Doubt it, I am her daughter after all
Bandit:I'm fucked...
Benjamin: And another thing
Clayton: Don't mess with a Carmine man!
As they both punch him and knock him out.
They take the rest of them back to the campsite and as they pull in, Raven is standing before them watching.
As they get out and push the bandits away.
Raven: So you finally decided to come join me Yang
Yang: No just to ask a few questions
Raven: Who are the savages?
Yang: Delta squad, all you need to know, now Dad told me how your sembalence works, can you take us to Qrow?
Raven: No.
Yang: Why not?
Raven: You don't know what your getting into
Yang: I don't care, I wanna see my sister, and these soldiers wanna help regardless of risks now let us go.
Jack beeps.
Baird: What is it buddy?
Jack floats over to a cover and yanks it off.
Weiss is revealed.
Yang:Weiss?
Weiss: Yang?
Benjamin: Weiss?
Weiss:Carmine?
Weiss: She kidnapped me! -points to Raven-
Yang: You kidnapped her!?
Raven: She was a ransom.
Weiss: Ya I never planned on this.
Benjamin: Can we please just go to Qrow?
Raven: Fine, allow me to take you.
She makes a portal and they pile into the truck and Baird heads into the portal.
Qrow is leaning over a railing and hears the portal open and assumes his sis is coming.
Qrow: Ok Raven what now?
He hears the horn.
Qrow: Is that a - they come through the portal- TRUCK!?
They stop and pile out and see Qrow.
Yang: Hows my sister?
Qrow: Shes fine, everyone else is just inside relaxing, go see them, I need to talk to Benjamin.
Yang and the others head inside.
Benjamin:Whats up?
Qrow: We found Ozpin, and we need to keep an eye out for any white fang or Locust around here ok?
Benjamin: No worries, we got this Qrow.
Ben and Qrow both head inside to see the others.
Ruby runs up and hugs Benjamin.
Ruby: So glad to see you Carmine.
Clayton: Huh?
Benjamin: Ruby this is my older brother Clayton Carmine.
Ruby: Holy Oum you got big arms
Clayton: Thanks.
Weiss: Thats your brother!?
Clayton: Yup I'm his brother.
Benjamin hugs Ruby again.
Ruby blushes: You glad to see me?
Benjamin: Of course I am, we are all a team right?
Ruby smiles.
Yang: Awww my lil sister is blushing, how cute.
Ruby: Shut it Yang!
Team JNPR decide to cook something for everyone as Team RWBY assits.
Jaune: Dont burn those noodles Ruby
Ruby: Shut it Jaune its fine
Ren: Nora stop eating the carrots!
Nora: But they are so good!
Pyrrha: Go! shoo Jaune! The seasoning is fine.
Jaune laughs as Pyrrha tries to smack him.
As Delta are getting the table set and the drinks out for everyone they take their seats the others come out with the food.
Cole: DAAAMN this is a big ass dinner
As they all sit around the table taking their helpings and talking stories, as they habe their good time, Qrow is having a few drinks as Ozpin is talking to him.
