The revelations about Team GTA 5's origins and their experiences brought an unexpected twist to the alliance between them, the heroes, and the White Fang members. The group, now bonded by a shared sense of purpose and the desire to uncover the truth, prepared to tackle the challenges that lay ahead.

As they stood in the Planning Room of the vast underground facility, a newfound camaraderie filled the air. The heroes, the White Fang members, and Team GTA 5 were ready to move forward, united in their determination to face the mysterious forces threatening Remnant.

Ozpin: Your honesty is appreciated, despite the complexity of the situation. We have much to consider and plan moving forward.

Glynda: Indeed. This new information will undoubtedly influence our strategies and decisions.

Winter: We should focus on our immediate concerns. The recent events have left us vulnerable.

Ilia: Cliffford has put us all at risk. We need to act swiftly.

Clover: Agreed. First things first, we need to understand how Cliffford was able to manipulate the situation and what his true intentions are.

Jaune: So, what's the plan?

Lock: We're tracking down leads on Cliffford and Avon. We need to understand their motives and how they're connected to this world.

Winter: Any specific locations we should investigate?

Sith: We've got a few. We'll share the information, and each team can take a lead.

Mina: And we'll provide support where needed.

221Sept: It's a possibility we can't ignore. We'll need to explore every angle.

The group exchanged ideas, theories, and potential strategies. The conversation flowed as they brainstormed ways to confront Cliffford's influence. The heroes and the White Fang members found themselves working alongside Team GTA 5, each contributing their unique perspectives and expertise to the discussion.

Sith: We should also strengthen our defenses here and in other key locations. We can't afford to be caught off guard again.

Mako: The facility has advanced security systems, but reinforcing them won't hurt.

Winter: We can allocate Atlesian resources to assist with the fortification efforts.

Chris: Fuck no.

As plans were made and strategies formulated, the group's determination grew stronger. The alliance between the heroes, the White Fang members, and Team GTA 5 had evolved into a formidable force, ready to face the challenges ahead. They were unified in their quest for truth, justice, and the protection of Remnant.

Chris: We've got a lot on our plate, but with our combined strengths, we can overcome this.

Glynda: Cooperation will be key in navigating this intricate situation.

Sienna: Right now, we're on the same side.

Cookie: We'll be watching each other's backs. Count on it.

The room resonated with a shared sense of purpose and determination. The heroes, the White Fang members, and Team GTA 5 had forged an alliance born from necessity and mutual respect. As they prepared to face the unknown, they knew that their strength lay in their unity, their resolve, and their unwavering dedication to safeguarding Remnant from the impending threats.

With a nod of agreement among them, the group readied themselves for the challenges that awaited, united in their commitment to uncover the truth and protect their world.

It was then Nora and Velvet thought about something.

Nora: What about Avon and that other guy?

Velvet: The one with an accent?

Green: Avon is the one that created Cliffford and Avery Duggan... he's like Jacques. A asshole with a lot of money and guns.

Elm: Speaking of firearms. How come when Ozpin got shot, his Aura didn't block the round.

Sith: May we remind you that our-and by our I mean myself, Chris, 221Sept, Green, Lock, Cookie, Mina, and Mako. Are not from this world. Or use Dust.

Hearing that shocks everyone. No Dust?

Mako: And before any of you ask. No Grimm either. And besides. We're technically from a video game world. Where logic and common sense is getting fucked up multiple times.

The revelation that Team GTA 5 and their group didn't use Dust or possess Aura, and hailed from a world where logic and common sense were often twisted due to their origin in a video game, left the heroes, the White Fang members, and even Ozpin and his circle in a state of surprise and bewilderment.

Jaune: No Dust? No Aura?

Mina: Yep. Our abilities and tools are... different.

Glynda: But how do you defend yourselves without Aura?

Lock: We've adapted. Our world doesn't function by the same rules as Remnant.

Winter: So, what kind of capabilities do you have?

Chris: We've got high-tech weapons, gadgets, and some unique skills we've honed. Think of it as advanced technology meeting... well, unconventional abilities.

Ilia: Unconventional, indeed.

The heroes and the White Fang members were intrigued by the concept of technology-driven abilities and skills. It was a departure from what they were accustomed to in Remnant, where Dust and Aura played significant roles in combat and defense.

Ruby: But doesn't that put you at a disadvantage here?

Sith: In some ways, perhaps. But it also gives us an edge that Cliffford and Avon might not expect.

Velvet: Your approach to combat must be very different from what we're used to.

Green: We rely more on strategy, technology, and surprise.

The conversation brought a new understanding to the group. While Team GTA 5 and their allies lacked the traditional means of defense found in Remnant, their technological prowess and unconventional methods presented a unique advantage against adversaries who were accustomed to Dust and Aura-based combat.

Yang: So, you'll be fighting Cliffford and Avon without Aura or Dust?

Lock: We've handled tough situations before. We'll make it work.

Ozpin: It seems your world's dynamics are quite unlike anything we've encountered here.

Chris: That's putting it lightly.

Qrow: Well, if it's a fight they want, I'm not one to turn it down.

Winter: We'll need to adjust our tactics accordingly.

As the group processed this new information, they began to adapt their strategies and tactics, taking into account the unconventional nature of their allies' abilities. It was a challenge, but one that they were willing to face together.

Glynda: We'll need to integrate your strengths into our plans.

Mina: And we'll assist in any way we can.

The alliance, now more aware of the unique circumstances and capabilities of Team GTA 5 and their group, began revising their strategies to accommodate this new information. It was clear that flexibility and innovation would be crucial in facing the upcoming challenges.

As they continued their discussions and planning, the heroes, the White Fang members, and Team GTA 5 prepared to utilize their combined strengths to confront Cliffford, Avon, and the unknown forces threatening Remnant. The alliance, forged in adversity, was ready to face the impending storm, armed with determination and a diverse set of skills that transcended the conventional norms of Remnant.

Yuma: What about the LSPD, LSSD, NOOSE, and Merryweather?

Mina: Easy.*pulls out a knife with a crazed smile* Murder 'em!

Ruby: Uhhh. Any other option?

Sith: Ruby. When they attacked us. Did you use Crescent Rose?

Ruby: Yeah?

Team GTA 5:.........

Ruby:*realizing* Wait...

She pulls out her weapon to see the blade part of her covered in slowly drying blood.

The others(WBY, JNPR, and CFVY) pull out their weapons and saw the same thing as like Ruby's.

Chris: Before you freak out or go into shock thinking you just killed another living person. You didn't.

Pyrrha:*hands shaking* But we-

Lock: But there not real. Their from a video game. Meaning you only just killed a bunch of 0s and 1s that ended up in your world. Plus it was an act of self-defence. So don't beat yourselves up about it.

Adam scoffs at how the eight are being when Mina and Mako glared at him.

Mako: Just a heads up. Before Mina and I died, we had a real-life body count of almost three thousand.

Adam and most of everyone shuts up. Why? Because she said REAL-LIFE body count. Not video game.

Adam: I... didn't know.

Mako: It's different from the world you know. In video games, actions can seem consequence-free. But the reality we came from... was much harsher.

The room fell into a heavy silence, the weight of the conversation lingering in the air. The heroes and the White Fang members, despite being from a world where battles often had life-threatening consequences, were faced with a new perspective on the gravity of their actions within the video game context.

Ruby: So, even though they looked real, they weren't... real?

Lock: In a way, they were just pieces of code, brought into your world. But in the world we came from, things were far more... consequential.

Velvet: It's a strange concept to grasp. To us, it felt real.

Sith: We understand it might be difficult to reconcile.

Glynda: Nonetheless, it's crucial to acknowledge the distinction.

Pyrrha: I... I'm sorry. It's just... we're not used to this.

Mina: It's okay. You're not expected to be.

The members of Team RWBY, JNPR, CFVY, and the others slowly processed the information, attempting to come to terms with the stark difference between their world's consequences and the seemingly detached consequences of actions within a video game context. It was an unfamiliar concept that challenged their understanding of reality.

Ozpin: This revelation emphasizes the complexity of the situation we're in. We must remain vigilant and mindful of our actions.

Winter: We need to remember that our world's rules may not apply here.

Chris: Exactly. We're dealing with forces that don't adhere to our norms.

The realization prompted the group to reevaluate their approach to the challenges they faced. They needed to consider the nuances and differences between their world and the world Team GTA 5 and their group originated from, acknowledging that their perspectives might not always align.

Lock: This is just a part of the bigger picture. We'll work through it together.

The discussion shifted towards recalibrating their strategies and understanding the implications of their actions in this unfamiliar setting. As they continued to plan and prepare, the group remained mindful of the complexities and potential consequences of their decisions in this new, enigmatic world.

Chris: Wait a second. What are they doing right now?

This made everyone realize what Chris meant. If they lost them, what are they currently doing now?

Trifa and Coco were about to pull out their Scrolls....

...until they remember they had to ditch them.

Cookie: What about the TV in the Lounge.

Chris: Oh right. I forgot I bought that.

Timeskip

The large group enters a rectangular room with seating and a working Internet accessible iFruit computer and a wall-mounted TV.

Harriet turns on the TV and the first they saw was a Breaking News Report from Vale News Network (VNN) with the news reporter Lisa Lavender on screen.

Lisa:*on TV* Breaking news, today. Mercenaries and many unknown law enforcement has made a large appearance in Vale.

Ozpin, Glynda, Ironwood, Clover, Qrow, and Winter:*worried* Oh no...

Lisa:*on TV*  Apparently, the unknown officers have began making unlawful arrests against fellow Vale Police Officers, Huntsmen both licensed and in-training, and local Faunus.

Sienna, Adam, Blake, and Velvet: Excuse me?!

Lisa:*on TV* We have the name of the men who hired and brought the Mercenaries. One man is named Avery Duggan who is incharge of the Duggan Mercenaries, the Professionals, and Merryweather Security Consulting Mercenaries. And another man who is named Avon Hertz and his Clifford Mercenaries.

Lock grabs the remote from Harriet and turns up the volume.

The room fell into an eerie silence as the Vale News Network report continued to unfold, detailing the dire situation unfolding within Vale.

Lisa Lavender continued her report on the TV screen:

Lisa:*on TV* The situation seems to be escalating rapidly as clashes between the unidentified mercenaries and local authorities are occurring across the city. Eyewitnesses report excessive force being used against civilians and law enforcement alike. The motives behind this aggressive takeover remain unclear at this moment.

Winter: This is catastrophic.

Qrow: Those names... Duggan and Avon. They're the same ones involved in our recent troubles.

Mina: Cliffford's associates.

Lisa:*on TV* Citizens are advised to remain indoors and stay away from the affected areas as the situation unfolds. Authorities are urging calm and cooperation.

Ren: We have to do something.

Fox: We can't let this escalate further. Vale is in danger.

Ozpin: We must act swiftly and decisively.

Glynda: But we need a plan. Rushing in blindly will only worsen the situation.

Lock: They've already got a head start. We need to think this through.

Coco: Vale is our home. We can't let them wreak havoc here.

Clover: We'll need to coordinate with the authorities, make sure we're not adding to the chaos.

Harriet: I can reach out to the Atlas military for assistance.

Lisa:*on TV* We'll continue to provide updates on this developing situation as more information becomes available.

The urgency in the room was palpable. The heroes, the White Fang members, and Team GTA 5 were faced with a critical moment, knowing that immediate action was required to prevent further chaos and protect Vale from the encroaching threat of the mercenaries under Duggan and Avon Hertz's command.

Ruby: We can't just stand by and watch. We have to help.

Mako: But rushing in blindly won't help either.

Velvet: We need a plan. We need to ensure the safety of everyone.

Lisa:*on TV* Hold on. We are getting a press speech from Avery Duggan who is currently in front of the Vale Council's office.

On the TV the group sees a live feed of a Duggan Merc on a Albany Cavalcade XL.

Duggan Merc:*on TV* Ladies and gentlemen! Please welcome Mr. Avery Duggan to the stage!

The man himself guarded by a couple mercs walks in front of the SUV.

Sienna:*pissed off* That. Fucking. Bastard.

Avery:*on TV* Today, you're about to witness a new phase. Full on, weapons grade, red alert, world domination!

Adam: Wow. He is a asshole.

221Sept: Ya see.

Avery:*on TV* That's not just impressive, it's revolutionary! Today, right here. We are about to make the next step! Prepare to witness... the future.

Weiss:*crosses her arms* Wow, just wow.

Avery:*on TV* I wanna lay my cards on the table. I don't give two fucks about how pissed you are or how many Huntswhatever you got up your sleeve. Am I making myself clear?

The tension in the room grew as Avery Duggan's speech streamed live on the television, his brazen and aggressive words striking a nerve within the assembled group. The heroes, the White Fang members, and Team GTA 5 were visibly incensed by Duggan's blatant threats and disregard for the safety of Vale.

Mina clenched her fists in anger, her eyes fixed on the screen, while Sienna's expression radiated fury at Duggan's arrogance and audacity. Even Adam, usually composed, was visibly agitated by the man's demeanor.

Winter: This cannot be allowed to continue.

Qrow: We have to act, but rash decisions will only make things worse.

Lock: Agreed. We need a plan, not a head-on collision.

Chris: Rushing in without a strategy will only put more lives at risk.

Ozpin: Glynda, coordinate with the authorities. We need a joint effort to contain the situation.

Glynda: Understood. I'll reach out to Vale's council and law enforcement.

Ruby: We have to help them.

Velvet: But how?

Sith: We need to gather information, understand their movements.

Lisa Lavender's voice from the TV interrupted the tense atmosphere in the room:

Lisa:*on TV* It seems we're facing a situation unlike any before in Vale's history. The threat posed by Duggan and Avon Hertz's mercenaries is escalating, and the fate of the city hangs in the balance.

Mako: We need eyes and ears on the ground.

Jaune: We could split into smaller teams and cover different areas of the city.

Clover: That might be the most efficient approach.

Harriet: Our communication needs to be on point. We can't afford to lose contact.

Chris: We need to be ready for anything. And remember, we're dealing with people from a whole different world.

The urgency of the situation spurred the group into action. Plans were quickly formulated, emphasizing coordination, information gathering, and cooperation with the authorities. Each member understood the gravity of the situation and the necessity to act swiftly and intelligently to prevent further chaos and protect Vale from Duggan and Avon Hertz's escalating threat.

It was then Chris noticed Avery is holding a Scroll. Ozpin's Scroll to be exact. He smiles as he took out his iFruit phone and called the contact on it, Ozpin.

Everyone saw him smiling and raised a brow at him.

Yang: What are you doing?

Chris: Just a special thing I installed....in your Scrolls.

Marrow: Wait? In our-

Chris: And... fuck you.

Avery:*on TV* Hang on a second. I think someone is trying to call me.

He hits the answer button on the Scroll.

Sith: Waiting for a far noise.

Avery:*on TV* Hello-?*the Scroll blows up on Avery's head killing him*

Almost everyone:*shocked and surprised* WHOA!!!

Yuma and Yang:*shocked and surprised* What the fuck!?

Ozpin:

Sith, 221Sept, Green, Lock, Cookie, Mina, and Mako:*smirks* Nice tactful killing.

Avery layed down on the floor dead with blood on his head.

Glynda:*feeling sick* Oh! Ach! Oh!*pukes*

Winter: Wait a second.*to Chris* ARE SAYING THAT YOU INSTALLED THAT IN OUR SCROLLS?!?!

Chris: Yes. It was automatically install whenever I meet or come across someone. In other words, I and Team GTA 5 can make a Scroll go boom.

Winter, understandably taken aback, voiced the collective astonishment at Chris's revelation. The realization that their Scrolls could be tampered with and potentially turned into deadly devices was a lot to process.

Winter: You mean to tell us that any Scroll you come across could be... rigged?

Chris: Well, not all. Just the ones where we've managed to do our thing.

The room fell into an uneasy silence as everyone grappled with this unexpected revelation. The idea that their communication devices could potentially be weaponized by Team GTA 5 brought a mix of shock, concern, and even a bit of admiration for the sheer unexpectedness of it all.

Clover: That's... a pretty unexpected skill set.

Ruby: I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Mina: It's a fail-safe. We're not keen on using it unless it's a last resort.

Lock: Besides, we've only set it up on a handful of devices.

Glynda, still recovering from the shock of the sudden explosion, regained her composure, albeit with a lingering sense of unease.

Glynda: That... was quite extreme, Chris.

Chris: Sorry not sorry, Glynda. It's just a precaution.

Winter: A very drastic one.

Ilia: You mean fucked up?

Sith: Well, it did get the job done. No more Avery.

Ironwood: It's not something we were expecting to see today, that's for sure.

Sienna: And yet, it's done.

The unexpected turn of events had left everyone with mixed feelings. While the utilization of such drastic measures was alarming, it had effectively neutralized a significant threat. The room buzzed with a mix of tension and contemplation, as the group processed this new piece of information.

As the group grappled with the implications of the revelation, it was clear that Team GTA 5's methods, though extreme, had achieved the desired result.

The utilization of such an extreme measure—rigging Scrolls to act as potential explosives—had effectively neutralized a significant threat in Avery Duggan. While the result was undeniable, the group grappled with the ethical implications and the unforeseen capabilities of Team GTA 5.

Ozpin: We must tread carefully with such methods. The consequences of weaponizing communication devices are severe.

Yang: That's some serious tech you've got there.

Chris: It's not something we use lightly. Or ever. Consider it a contingency plan.

Mina:*lying* We hope we don't have to resort to that again.

Sienna: Nevertheless, it was effective.

Harriet: Effective but... extreme.

Clover: We cannot condone such tactics as a solution.

Winter: Our Scrolls are vital tools for communication and coordination. Weaponizing them presents an immense risk.

Lock: We understand the concerns. We only installed it for dire situations.

The heroes, the White Fang members, and Team GTA 5 were at an impasse, acknowledging the efficiency of the action while grappling with the moral implications. The tension in the room was palpable as they debated the necessity and ethical boundaries of such drastic measures.

Ruby: I get wanting to stop the bad guys, but is this the right way?

Mako: Sometimes, there are no clear right or wrong choices in dire situations.

Velvet: But still...

Chris: We're not proud of it, but it was a necessary step to prevent further harm.

Fennec: It's a slippery slope, relying on extreme measures.

Corsac: We'd rather not use it again if we can help it.

Adam remained silent, processing the unexpected turn of events and the capabilities of Team GTA 5. The moral ambiguity and the implications of such technology weighed heavily on everyone present.

Adam: Let's just hope it doesn't come to that again.

The group found themselves in an ethical quandary, acknowledging the effectiveness of the action while grappling with the broader implications and potential risks associated with such measures. The conversation shifted to the need for caution and a reassessment of the line between necessity and excess when dealing with threats to their world.

The news feed cuts back to a shocked and surprised Lisa who is looking at the scene.

Lisa:*on TV* Well... that happened... it appears Avery Duggan has just been assassinated just now-OH! We are now getting an important message from one of the law enforcement called LSPD.

It cuts to LSPD cop in a tactical vest.

LSPD Cop:*on TV* Attention both officers, mercs, and city people and animal people.

Ironwood:*to Adam* You know I won't stop you if you kill that guy.

Adam: For once. I agree with you Atlas.

LSPD Cop:*on TV* We now have mugshots of the supposed assassins.

LSPD mugshots of Chris, Sith, 221Sept, Green, Lock, Cookie, Mina, and Mako are seen including their their stats and number of weapons.

Stamina: 100%

Shooting: 100%

Strength: 100%

Stealth: 100%

Flying: 100%

Driving: 100%

Lung Capacity: 100%

Number of weapons: 96

Yatsuhashi: Huh. What does 'Strength: 100%' mean?

Cookie: Meaning we're physicality the strongest eight people on Remnant.

Yang: I think somewhat found that out when Mako shoved Sky's head up Cardin's ass.

Ironwood:*double-takes* I'm sorry, but could you repeat that?

Ozpin: Ms. Mako shoved a student's head up another student's rear-end.

Mako: You guys wanna see the video?

Almost everyone: No.

Velvet, Blake, Pyrrha, and Jaune:*mutters* Yes.

Fox:*to Velvet, Blake, Pyrrha, and Jaune* For four say something?

Velvet, Blake, Pyrrha, and Jaune: Nope.

LSPD Cop:*on TV* We also have pictures of others.

Ruby and Chris: Others?

On the TV it shows LSPD pictures/mugshots of Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang, Jaune, Nora, Pyrrha, Ren, Coco, Fox, Velvet, Yatsuhashi, Ozpin, Glynda, Qrow, Winter, Ironwood, Clover, Elm, Vine, Harriet, Marrow, Adam, Sienna, Ilia, Yuma, Trifa, Corsac and Fennec.

Everyone:.......

Ozpin, Glynda, Ruby, Jaune, Nora, and Ren:*in disbelief* What the fuck?

The unexpected turn of events, where mugshots of the eight members of Team GTA 5 were broadcasted alongside pictures of the heroes, faculty, and some White Fang members, created a tense atmosphere filled with shock and disbelief.

Ruby: Why are our pictures up there?

Weiss: And why are they mixed in with those eight's mugshots?

Chris: This is escalating quickly.

Sith: We didn't expect to be featured on the evening news.

221Sept: And certainly not alongside your pictures.

Ironwood: What kind of mess is this?

Glynda: It appears our situation has become more complicated.

Winter: Are we being framed?

Ozpin: This seems like a deliberate attempt to implicate us.

Qrow: Looks like someone's setting the stage for something bigger.

Ren: But why mix our images with their mugshots?

Yuma: They're trying to put all of us in the same basket.

Corsac: A tactic to turn public opinion against everyone here.

Fennec: And to cause chaos in Vale.

The unexpected broadcast had raised numerous questions among the group. The mix of mugshots and images of familiar faces implied a deliberate attempt to associate the heroes, faculty, and the White Fang members with the wanted individuals. The tension in the room grew as everyone tried to make sense of the situation and the potential implications it might have for Vale and its residents.

Jaune: What do we do now?

Mina: We need to counter this, fast.

Cookie: It's a setup, and we're all being played.

Glynda: We must act swiftly to clear our names.

Winter: Our priority is to prevent panic and restore trust within Vale.

Adam: Are we going to ignore the fact that those eight aren't even from this world?

Sienna: Doesn't seem like they're considering that at the moment.

Ozpin: This is a dangerous turn of events. We must proceed with caution.

The group realized that they were now collectively targeted, and a sense of urgency hung in the air.

It was then everyone looked at Team GTA 5. Or manly at Chris.

Chris: The fuck y'all looking at me for? I don't have a plan... yet.

Glynda: Well. You ARE the leader of Team GTA 5.

Ruby: And you ARE the one with the most crazy plans that somehow work.

Sienna: And this is YOUR facility that you aloud us in.

Chris: Alright, alright. Jeez, I'm starting miss fighting in that Fight Club.

Ironwood, Glynda, and Ozpin: Fight Club?

Pyrrha: Ignore that.

Chris then sitting on the floor thinking...

And thinking...

And.... thinking...

Mina: I mean we could use the Orbital Cannon in the War Room to blow up a large sum  of those guys.

Chris and the rest of Team GTA 5 looked at her wide eyed. And slowly started smiling like a crazy person.

Chris:*hugging Mina* MINA YOU SHORT BEAUTIFUL CRAZY BITCH!!! YOU'RE A FUCKIN' GENIUS!!!

Mina: Oh my~

Trifa: Care to share-

She didn't finish as Chris put his index finger on her mouth shushing her.

Chris:*smiling* Keep the TV on. Cause Imma bout show some FAAFO.

Adam, Sienna, Ilia, Yuma, Trifa, Corsac and Fennec: FAAFO?

Qrow:*answering* Fuck Around And Find Out.

Chris:*laughs* Ya goddamn right!!

Chris then runs directly through a wall, leaving an hole behind.

Everyone jaw-dropped at what the man did. Well... not everyone. Mostly the White Fang members. Sienna looks at the others are getting relaxed.

Blake:*putting a hand on her shoulder* You'll get used to it.

The group then hears a massive explosive and felt the aftershock of it and a "OH HOLY SHIT!?!?" from the War Room as Chris rushed back in to meet group.

Chris: Okay... I. Did not see that coming.

Then they looked back at news to see Lisa who fell off her chair as her butt was in the air. Most of the men and Ilia tilted their heads to the left as if to get a better look. She then gets back up, fixes her hair, and clears her throat.

Lisa:*on TV* Well...uh...um...it appears that large number of the Duggan Mercenaries and the Professionals have been wiped out in a building and packing garage in downtown Vale...by an unknown explosion...*whispering* Seriously, what's with all the damn explosions lately?*out loud* We'll now go on break for any updates.

She gets up to leave away from the camera but the camera is still rolling.

Lisa:*on TV* What do mean my freakin' underwear shown?!

It was a series of events that left everyone in shock, awe, and a bit of amusement. Chris's unexpected reaction to Mina's idea led to an explosion that had shaken things up quite literally. The sudden turn of events, from contemplation to explosive action, was a testament to the unpredictability that surrounded Team GTA 5.

Sienna: Well, that was... unexpected.

Ilia: I think unexpected is their specialty.

Qrow: You've got that right.

Pyrrha: That's... pretty extreme.

Harriet: I've seen some crazy stuff, but this...

Elm: That's one way to make a statement.

Mina:*grinning* Just doing my part.

The unexpected explosion had made a significant impact, causing a ruckus in downtown Vale and leaving Lisa Lavender in a flustered state on live television.

Velvet: I don't think Vale's going to forget this anytime soon.

Vine: That was... unconventional.

Yuma: Definitely different from what we're used to.

Corsac: Quite the explosive start.

Fennec: They have a unique way of handling things

Yang: Wonder what Chris did...

Ruby: Did he... blow something up?

Chris with a wide grin, looking quite pleased with the outcome.

Chris: Well, that went off with a bang!

Lock: Literally.

Sith: You just blasted a bunch of them, didn't you?

Chris:*nodding* Orbital Cannon, baby!

Mina: You owe me for that idea.

Chris: Consider it paid in full, short stuff.

The news broadcast showed the aftermath of the explosion, leaving Lisa Lavender in a moment of embarrassment and confusion on live TV, inadvertently revealing a bit more than she intended.

Glynda: You certainly know how to make an entrance, Chris.

Winter:*sighs* Always with the theatrics.

Ozpin: Let's hope that action doesn't exacerbate the situation further.

Trifa: Chris, what was the plan?

Chris:*grinning* To FAAFO.

221Sept: Fuck around and find out.

Yang: Well, that was one way to make a statement.

Mako: Hopefully, it'll buy us some time.

The group exchanged looks, contemplating the implications of Chris's impulsive action. While it had potentially neutralized a portion of the threat, it also raised concerns about the repercussions and how it might escalate the conflict. 

Clover: We should ensure no innocent lives were lost in that explosion.

Ironwood: We can't let chaos and destruction escalate.

Jaune: Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Ren: Guess it depends on whose side you're on.

Coco: This is not how I anticipated today to unfold.

Adam: Definitely wasn't in the plans.

Chris's approach, while effective in dealing with the immediate threat, also brought forth a cascade of uncertainties and potential repercussions.

Pyrrha: What now?

Sith: We should lay low for a bit.

Ilia: Assess the aftermath.

Ruby: Are we sure that was the best move?

Lock: It was one move, not the endgame.

Glynda: We need to strategize our next steps carefully.

Winter: We can't afford any more reckless actions.

Ozpin: This has escalated beyond expectations.

Sienna: Vale is going to be on high alert now.

The group took a moment to collect their thoughts and consider the implications of the recent explosion.

Chris: And it only costs me 9 million-

Suddenly, Chris, Sith, 221Sept, Green, Lock, Cookie, Mina, and Mako glowed blue from their eyes and mouth!

Ruby:*scared* WHAT'S HAPPENING?!

Qrow:*freaked out* WHY ARE THEY-?!

The eight stop glowing as they have a blank face. And silent.

Yang:*touching Sith* Guys? You alright?

The eight then randomly does things or walk away from them. What they don't know is that the eight lost control of their characters.

Ruby: Are they okay?

Velvet: This doesn't look good.

Yang: What's going on with them?

Qrow: Something's definitely not right.

The group exchanged worried glances, unsure of what caused this sudden change in behavior among the eight affected individuals. The unexplained blue glow and subsequent loss of control over their movements left everyone feeling uneasy and concerned for their well-being.

Soon, Chris, Sith, 221Sept, Green, Lock, Cookie, Mina, and Mako's eyes blink twice implying that they turn their mics on and back in control. They looked at their hands in awe.

Chris, Sith, 221Sept, Green, Lock, Cookie, Mina, and Mako:*quietly* So this is what rank 750 feels like...

The group sighs in relief seeing the eight are back.

221Sept: Sorry about that. We just gotten a massive rank up, update, and we kinda turned off our mics.

Glynda: All I heard was video gamer talk.*sighs and smiles* But I'm glad your back.

Green: Thanks Goodwitch.

Glynda: GG is fine.

Sienna: Hol up, what do mean, 'we kinda turned off our mics'? Because I understand 'massive rank up and update'.

221Sept: When we say 'we kinda turned off our mics,' we mean our communication was temporarily disabled. It's like an involuntary side effect when we reach certain thresholds or upgrades.

Chris: Yeah, it's like we temporarily disconnect from external communication when we hit certain milestones in our... let's say, skill tree.

Sienna: I see, like a system overload or a brief reset due to the upgrade.

Lock: Exactly, something like that.

Mina: It's a bit disorienting but happens every time we cross these major thresholds.

Glynda: Fascinating, it sounds like a complex and unique mechanic within your abilities.

Ozpin: You'll have to elaborate on these 'updates' and 'ranks.'

Sith: In simpler terms, think of it like leveling up in a game. Each rank or update comes with new abilities or enhancements to our existing ones.

Qrow: So, what new tricks did you all unlock this time?

Cookie: We'll need a bit to figure that out. Sometimes it takes a while to understand what's different.

The group listened intently, intrigued by this sudden phenomenon and its relation to the unique capabilities of Chris, Sith, 221Sept, Green, Lock, Cookie, Mina, and Mako. They were accustomed to the unexpected, but this particular event added a new layer of intrigue and complexity to their understanding of Team GTA 5's abilities.
