Cinder looked to Emerald and Mercury, "Our plan is simple, Salem wants us to infiltrate Haven and retrieve the Relic of Knowledge and the Spring Maiden" Cinder told them "We are also to meet up with Salem's Heir to exchange information" Cinder said the last part with Venom

"You really don't like him," Mercury said

"Why should I like him? He is power is nowhere compared to mine" Cinder said

"I don't know Cinder... If he's really a descendant of her then wouldn't he be almost as powerful as her?" Emerald asked

"Impossible, Salem has magic, and no one else besides her, the Maidens, and Ozpin have magic," Cinder said

Mercury nodded, "should we test him out?" Mercury asked, "ya know, to see if he's all the talk?" Mercury asked with a smirk

Cinder smirked at him, "Mercury a great Idea, but please, allow me to see if he's truly the heir to Salem" Cinder said "We leave here tomorrow morning, we stay far from Mistral until we get more information from the Coward" Cinder told them

They nodded and headed to their rooms.





RRBN and JAN walked through the forest, Ruby, Blake, and Jaune were looking at the map and seeing which road lead the fastest to the town where the Bullheads were. However, both Ren and Arslan stopped

"Do you feel that?" Ren asked her

"yeah..." Arslan replied

Nora walked up to them, "what is it?"

Neo suddenly felt a killing aura around them, "we got Company!" Neo yelled

Jaune felt each emotion of killing intent, there seemed to be 10 people around them, but he felt many more as well as Fading Aura in front of them. This was a Bandit attack. 10 people landed on the ground, some were men and some were women, Jaune sensed they didn't have their Aura's unlocked and none of them had a semblance either.

"Look at what we got here!" said a woman, she had red hair in a mohawk and in both hands were Khopeshs, "It seems we got Huntsmen!" She laughed

The people around them laughed. Everyone had their weapons ready in case one of the bandits attacked.

"I don't know what you're doing here but you're entering Branwen Tribe territory!" She said "and we don't like trespassers," She said with a grin

Ruby froze when she heard the name, it was her Uncle Qrow's last name, but she knew another person who had that name, Raven, Yang's mother.

"That's too bad," Arslan said she stepped to the woman, "It's our job to trespass into scum territory"

The woman growled, and pointed on of her Khopesh at Arslan, "think your hot-shit huh? The names Asami Branwen, lieutenant to Raven Branwen!"

"oh really? My name is Arslan Atlan and I'll be your opponent" Arslan said, Arslan turned to the rest of them, "you guys go ahead, I'll take them on"

"Arslan you-!" Ruby began but Jaune stopped her

"it's ok Ruby, she's got this" Jaune said "Arslan, are you gonna use your semblance?" Jaune asked

Arslan nodded, and Jaune smiled, "then we'l get out of your hair, lets go, there's a town up ahead that needs out help" Jaune told them and the rest of them followed Jaune

A bandit stepped to chase after them, but before he could get another step, his entire body was slammed into the ground, and underneath him, it cracked. Arslan was atop of him,
