Alright folks, I meant to write and post this on Tuesday... BUT, like with what happened to my friend Tronsmaster, I was automatically logged out of the site while I was in the middle of writing the chapter.

As such my progress was NOT saved, the site told me I wasn't logged in, and I had to write this all over again.

Needless to say, I was PISSED! And I could barely work on this chapter yesterday because of that irritation

What the hell is with a feature that logs someone out after exactly 168 Hours (Or 7 days, or 1 week) since they logged in? I mean I can sorta get it if we haven't been back on the site after that alloted time has passed, but why am I getting logged out WHILE I'm on my page?

Can you guys talk to the admins about this little issue, I sent them an Email about it months ago and they haven't noticed it yet.

Anyway, here's the chapter I owe you all.

[[]]

[Jaune's P.O.V.]

After another ride on that unholy contraption called a Bullhead we stood just outside of Mountain Glenn.

"So this is where Team RWBY went... " Ren said looking around, "All this was caused by Grimm."

"Let's get moving." I said as my teammates donned their Dragoon Armor, "We're here to search the Merlot Industries main office fr information on what happened to Doctor Merlot and his research."

"Let's go!" Nora shouted pointing her hammer toward the cracked open road of the city.

"It scares me that she can hold that thing so well with just one hand." Pyrrha said looking at the super-sized hammerhead.

[]

A few Grimm, and more than one close call of rubble thanks to Nora's explosives we found a bridge that would take us to Merlot Industries tower... there wasn't a pile of rubble on top of it.

"No problem, we can just fly over the thing." Nora said smiling.

"Please, no." I said holding my stomach, "I don't think I'm ready to fly so soon after that bullhead trip..."

"Well I just smash it open then." Nora declared.

"Nora no!" Ren shouted grabbing Magnhild and pulling it from Nora, nearly falling over from the immense weight of the weapon, "We can't afford an explosion of the magnitude to destroy that, we could very well collapse the area around us."

"Fine." Nora said taking her hammer back.

"We can take the waterways." Pyrrha said, "Sewer entrances are scattered all over the city, plus due to the lack of people living here it should be fairly clean."

"Alright!" Nora shouted, "Let's go for a swim! Wait, where's all the water?" Nora then asked as she looked off the bridge to the waterway.

"The water treatment facilities haven't been active in years Nora, water isn't getting regulated through here anymore." Ren said.

"Awww..." Nora groaned as we jumped off the bridge.

We ran through the dry waterways looking for an entryway that wasn't blocked by rubble, eventually finding one that was blocked by a floodgate that looked undamaged, just really rusted.

"Here's to hoping this works." I said pushing the switch on the gate.

A loud warning siren went off, one originally designed, I presume, to warn anyone working the waterways that this door was opening and they should be clearing out soon, instead this alerted the Grimm to our location... And there are the Beowolves.

"Wow, these guys got here fast." Nora said as she swung upward with Magnhild, sending the unfortunate Beowolf that got hit by it fly until all that was left of it was a gleam in the distance.

A few minutes of destroying Boewolves later an Ursa showed up... it didn't last long as the bullet's that shot from Ren's Stormflower shredded the creature, the light attribute of his weapon tearing through the Grimm's natural darkness.

Another Ursa showed up soon after... and was promptly made a pancake by Nora.

"A little much Nora?" I asked.

"Nope." Nora said smiling still.

We ran through the newly opened area, which had an oddly low amount of Grimm surprisingly.

"I thought this place was supposed to be crawling with Grimm?" Nora asked as she blew up a Boarbatusk.

"Maybe Team RWBY Cleared out more than they thought?" I asked as an Ursa Major charged toward us.

"I doubt it." Pyrrha said shooting the Grimm in the head with her weapon in Rifle from, knocking it down, "I think it's more akin to most of them following Roman's train to Vale."

"Oh... yeah that actually makes a bit more sense." I said, "There were a lot of Grimm there."

Nora suddenly flew high into the air, let herself just hang there for a moment before flying back down, her hammer firing at regular intervals to propel her until she slammed Magnhild into the Ursa Majors head, letting off a massive field of electricity... and causing a large quake.

Said quake caused our target building, Merlot Industries headquarters, to crumble away.

The rest of us turned to Nora.

"Umm... Oops." Nora said turning slightly red.

Ren facepalmed at Nora's action..

"Maybe we should start up our training on self control again." Pyrrha said.

"Awww..." Nora groaned.

"Let's look for a way into the underground of the city." I said, "Maybe there's some underground facilty there... or at least a faster way out."

[]

"The place looks more unstable that what Team RWBY described." Ren said as we carefully walked into an open air section of Mountain Glenn's underground.

"Nora, no explosives." I said, "I don't want to be buried alive."

"Okay..." Nora said shifting Magnhild into it's hammer form and unloading it.

We soon entered a tunnel into the underground itself, and a few minutes down that path we found the remains of an underground city... and a railroad track.

"You think this is the same place Team RWBY jumped on a train?" Nora asked.

"I don't know." Ren said, "Who knows how many trains could have run down here at one point."

We continued forward and soon encountered a green tinted Creep.

"What is that?" Pyrrha asked confused as she aimed her rifle at it, thankfully we hadn't been noticed yet.

"I... think it's a Grimm." I said, "But I don't know why it's green." I quickly snapped a picture of it on my scroll, so I could send it to Doctor Oobleck once I can get a signal again.

Pyrrha then fired at the Creep... Which triggered something in the Grimm to cause it to explode like it was a bomb.

"Okay, note to self, don't get near those." I said as we continued.

Our next destination was a mineshaft... which had a minecart in the middle of a railtrack... which had a bomb on it.

"Oh crap." I said noticing the timer on the bomb start up, "If that thing goes off it'll bring the whole cave down on top of us."

"The mine cart is powered by Dust Crystals." Ren said, "If we power the cart we can get it out of our way, as well as open up the doors in front of us, as long as we can get the doors open we can fly out of here before it collapses."

"Okay everyone get some Dust!" I shouted, "We've got less than 6 minutes to do this!"

Nora was already gone and back with a Dust Crystal and shoved it in the fuel box, starting up the machine.

"Come on we need to find more, whoever left this here has certainly rigged this thing to devour fuel so we'll need a lot." I said.

That's when we heard the howl of a Beowolf.

"Yeah, hurry." I said.

It took us a little over four minutes and a lot of Dust, but we managed to open the last door in our path and even found a deep chasm that we drove the cart into.

There was silence for about thirty seconds before the chasm lit up from within, revealing a river that more than likely weakened the explosion of the bomb, but still caused some severe shaking in the tunnel.

"I wonder who set that bomb there?" Ren mused, "And why..."

"I don't think I want to know really." I admitted, "Let's just get out of here... I think I can feel wind coming from that tunnel over there."

Again, sorry for how long this took to come out.

I'll see you all in the next chapter.
