"Hey miss are you okay?" the voice from before asked as they nursed the cloaked woman as she drank some water.

"W-Whe-Where am I?" the girl asked

"Vacuo Desert Slums, this particular one is called Sandsea" the figure said

"And who are you?" The girl asked

"Cloud Lark" Cloud said

"So the wee bonny lass is up is she?" another figure said

"And that is Sparrow Davis, Behind him is Verde Ayana. We've been hanging out here for a month

"So who are you, if you don't mind me asking miss" Verde said

"Iclyn, Iclyn Schnee. I need your help" Iclyn said from underneath her tan cloak

"What is it?" Cloud asked

"I need to take refuge in the abandoned Academy of Beacon so I can learn a way to defeat the Empress" Iclyn said

"Okay we'll try and get you there, but the Inquisitor while be in the region soon, and then we'll have trouble" Cloud said

"Problem is a sandstorm is rolling in" Sparrow said

"Could we use it somehow, to go in to Sandsea and recruit some more rebels?" Cole asked

"Possible, but the Bulkhead may not take it" Wolf said

"But if we get there before the sandstorm and get our recruit before buzzing off then I think we should be fine" Jai said looking at the data

"Could do, but I'm worried about the Inquisitor you guy could meet: Rocky Winchester codenamed Inquisitor Tremor, taken from his semblance" Tempest said

"So how do we deal with him?" Cole asked pulling on his usual coat

"We don't, we avoid him" Tempest said

"Okay, Jai you're with me and we'll take six others" Cole said

"You got it, finally fun times" Jai said

"And when we get back, our symbol" Cole said picking up Bishop and Red Fang before leaving.

"Okay" Wolf and Tempest nodded.

Iclyn and her guardians were making their way through Sandsea when a shadowy object landed.

"They're here" Cloud said

"What should we do?" Verde asked

"Hoods up and act natural" Cloud said walking out into the open square. Cloud look around nervous hoping he wouldn't get spotted when the Inquisitor stepped out

"PEOPLE OF SANDSEA! I AM INQUISITOR TREMOUR! WE HAVE RECEIVE WORD OF THE WINTER MAIDEN BEING IN YOUR TOWNSHIP"

"Shit" the guardians said

"ANY ATTEMPT IN HELPING HER WILL BE MET WITH PUNISHMENT" Tremor said as his bare arms showed a large amount of muscle.

"What now?" Sparrow asked

"No idea" Verde said

"This way" Cloud said

"You there halt" an Order trooper said

"RUN!" Sparrow said as the four took off

"AFTER THEM!" Tremor said

"MOVE!" Cloud shouted firing off a blast of air to create a wall of sand aiding their escape.

"Search the town" Tremor said.

"I see one of them" a trooper said as he and his partner walked over to the cloaked figure.

"Freeze, may tell us where the maiden is" the second trooper said

"No anything but that" a high pitch voice

"You have no choice, tell us"

"Actually" the 'lady' said dropping the falsetto "I don't think so" the voice was Cole dropping his disguise and punching the soldier. "She's here"

"Roger that" Jai said

"Moving in" Cole said pulling out Bishop and slicking back his red tipped black hair. He ducked into and alley to check if they way was clear before moving on. The sand was doing nothing to hide his footprints and sounds as he rushed through the desert area.

Jai was hiding in the shadow was several Inferno Order soldiers scanned the area.

"We have movement here" one of them said pointing at the shadows where Jai was hiding.

"Time to play" he said throwing his hands out as spear of solidified shadows stabbed the soldiers. Several aggressive looking villagers stood nearby confuse "Pick up their weapons and if any of you guys are Renegades, then follow me" he said as the entire group picked up the weapons "Welcome to the rebellion" he said as he and his new team ran off looking for the Schnee girl, he needed to find her, for the rebellion and himself. She could help free his sister and mother while reclaiming Remnant. The new rebels quickly kept pace with the Wolf Faunus.

"CRY HAVOC" Jai shouted

"AND LET SLIP THE BEOWOLVES OF WAR!" they finished as the Inferno Troopers were ambushed by them.

"Judging by that gunfire in the distance Jai found some play mates" Cole said looking but where he heard gunshots and mortar impacts, "But I have to find the Maiden of Winter, and bring her back to Beacon for protection, also hopefully she can help the rebellion I've started" he muttered. Suddenly a cloaked figure collided into him, the hood was forced down revealing a curtain of pearlescent white hair and glacier blue eyes.

"Iclyn!" A voice cried out as three more cloaks appeared.

"Okay so he isn't dressed like a Inferno Trooper or Inquisitor" Sparrow said

"I'm Cole Rose, leader of the Hunter's Rebellion" Cole said

"Iclyn Schnee, Maiden of Winter" Iclyn said

"Cloud Lark"

"Sparrow Davis"

"Verde Ayana"

"Nice to meet you, let's go" Cole said

"That was fun" Jai smirked

"All units, This is Cole we've located trophy, I repeat we have won the trophy for MVP" Cole said over radio

"This is Jai, roger that, taking the team to the benches" Jai said

"Anysigns of the opposition's goalie?" Cole asked

"Yep, and he's about to defend" Jai said

"Don't stay and play to long" Cole said

"Roger" Jai said "So you must be"

"I am Inquisitor Tremor" Tremor said "And you have something we want"

"And what's that?" Jai asked smirking

"The Maiden of Winter" Tremor said

"Piss off" Jai said swinging his Battle Axe, only to be blocked by Tremor's rock like armour. "Okay that's new"

"I control the region, how you may ask?" he asked as the ground starting shaking

"You use your semblance to create earthquakes" Jai smiled

"No, it's to control the earth you stand on, I just use it for Earthquakes and this!" Tremor declared as he stomped down on the ground. Soon a spike of pure rock shot out of the ground.

"WHOA that's new" Jai said, then he noticed something, the spike casted a shadow on the ground. He smirked pulling out Darkbane and spun it around before activating its mortar form and pulled out a ice dust mortar

"Freeze!" Jai said firing

"You think a little frost will stop an inferno?" Tremor asked

"No, but this will!" Jai said punching the ground

"And what will that do?" Tremor asked as something sharp plunged into his side.

"You don't recognise me, I'm Jai Feng Belladonna, they call me the Umbramancer; thanks to my shadow manipulation semblance" Jai said

"The Umbramancer, so a member of the Order's Blacklist is here to end me" Tremour said as he summoned a morning star mace which was also a sonic weapon.

"Yep, that's me" Jai smirked as he jumped off a rock protrusion and swung his axe around. Tremor's mace intercepted it and started to generate a high pitch noise.

"SHIT!" Jai said covering his ears.

"Hang on sir" a new rebel said slamming his foot down and in that instance all noise was gone. The new rebel held up five fingers. '

So this semblance had a time limit.' Jai noticed before thinking quickly, he used his semblance to try and disable the sound function. Tremor stamped his foot on the ground creating a shockwave, Jai jumped over it and had his shadows to form an arm-blade before the inquisitor felt its wrath by having their weapon sliced in half and exploding in his face, Jai looked over and noticed the rebel was down to one finger up

'Five minutes huh' Jai thought as the sound returned "MOVE!"

"YES SIR" the new rebels said following Jai

"You'll never be able to flee the Inferno Order" Tremor said

"Say that again" Jai started "When you can" he added piercing the Inquisitor's side with hsi shadows.

"This is not the end" Tremor said

"You're right it's the beginning" Jai said as he and his troops took off.

"About time you got here Jai" Cole said

"Sorry I was dealing with the Inquisitor" Jai said as his six new rebel troops. "And got some more renegades for our cause"

"Good, take off I want to be at Beacon in the hour" Cole said

"Sir" the pilot said

"Iclyn are you sure we should go with this guys?" Sparrow asked

"No other choice, its either we hand ourselves over to the Order, or rebellion" Iclyn said

"Good answer" Cole said.

Back at the Inquisitor station High Inquisitor Falco stared down at the injured Tremor.

"You failed to capture the Maiden and let several renegades GO!" he shouted

"These were not your regular Renegades sir, from what I saw of the one I fought. They were organised, dare I say militarised"

"Someone has militarised the renegades, into a rebellion; who now have a Maiden!" Falco shouted

"Yes sir" Tremor said

"Be gone from the High Inquisitor's sight scum" Blizzard said in her disguised voice as Tremor was helped up and out by two guards. "And make sure his healing is painful. Empress Fall does not like failure" she added

"There can only be one person who can do something like this" Falco muttered

"But isn't Ozpin and any hunters locked up?" Eis asked removing her helmet

"Yes, but I'm thinking of another, tell what do you know of Ash Cloud?" Falco asked

"Didn't we kill him on Marnius Island?" Eis asked

"We did, but we didn't kill the rest of his family, his wife Ruby Rose and their son, he is the one I believe is running this Rebellion. And he might be running out of Beacon. I know we should move, but things have become Stagnant recently and I need some excitement" Falco said

"Cinder will not like this" Eis said

"Then she can wait to enjoy it" Falco said

"Yes my love" Eis whispered

"Hey guys, I just found our insignia" Tempest said as the Vacuo group walked in, there proudly displayed on the holo-emitter was a symbol

"What is it?" Jai asked

"Back before the order their used to be an event every two or so years called the Vytal festival, and this is the symbol they would use, its made up of the badges of the four schools" Tempest said

"Good, display it as the badge of the Hunter's Rebellion" Cole said "We're going in"
