Welcome to Beacon! (RWBY-verse RP)

Team Black

"The Black Knight." Oscar answered coldly before taking a step towards the scientist. "I've met your "daughter" Beth and taken her under my custody. Now, I think you have some explaining to do." He growled before trying to grab him by the lapels of his coat.

Francesca handed her scroll to Beth. "It's Carol."

Black Team

The old man was a coward, he noticeably shook as the huge man went towards him.

He raised his hands, a sign of surrender. "Don't kill me! I'm a scientist! I was curious, and the pay was good!"

Sisters

Beth took the Scroll, hands trembling, and spoke. "Carol?"

Carol's eyes widened in shock and she almost dropped the blind boy's Scroll.

"Beth? Betty, is that you? Little sis..." her voice trembled. She was holding back tears.

"You're alive..."

Beth grinned. "Hey there, romance freak..."

"....How...."

Jack looked at Lucas, "Nice one." He turned to Carol. "We're here to save all of you, just like Beth. How many other girls are there?" He asked Carol after the call finished.

From what Dex could hear of the conversation between the two sisters, it seemed like things were going just perfectly. He smiled as he heard them.

Black Team

"You have no idea how bad the term 'the pay was good' sounds in your situation." Lupa said as she gave the coward a wolfish deathglare.

Red Team

Remus held back and shot arrows at the turrets.

Ever so slightly taking control of Calypso. Gimme a holler if I did it wrong.

Red Squadron

Rufus coincided his attack with Calypso's bombing run. Under the cover of her explosions, and all other attack, he speared the nearest turret at its based and pulled himself under it, through the inferno she created, excepting the burns or whatever the black hell she laid down.

Under the gun, he attacked it underside, banking on the armor being thinner there, slashing through where the proper gun and the stock of it met.

Also made some liberties on how the guns look like.

Team Black

Oscar grabbed hold of the scientist and lifted him off the ground. "Are you gonna transform into a freak like that Priam punk?" He asked angrily. He sighed before letting him down. "Anyway, you were the scientist who experimented on Beth, correct? And like my partner said, choose your words carefully, lest I decide to let her tear you full of holes." He snarled.

GOLDCAB
Davros looked back at the rear cannons shooting the train, then looked back at the controls. He blinked once, and made a mental note not to do that again.

He went back to just using the main cannon on the enemies, but he remembered that on the last tank, those machine guns had been pretty pesky. Now they could probably be pesky to the other guys. He brought both his legs up onto the controls, on either side of his hands, and started trying to fire off both machine guns as he worked the cannon with his hands.

The scorpion Faunus watched as Oscar did his thing with Etton. He couldn't have agreed more with Oscar's sentiment. This man was a bloody coward, and greedy at that.

'''Green Team'"'

And the tank was destruction incarnate, blasting and rolling over the ground troops.

Unfortunately, two more tanks were fast approaching. "Oy, kid! I'm going to drive us closer! Blow em to hell.!"

Black Team

Etton screamed and he began talking immediately. "Of course not! Priam was insane! A psycho with more balls than brains!"

"And honestly! This is all Frank's idea! I created the Black Blood, true, but that's all I've ever been! I'm the one who turns his ideas into reality. It's not like I agree with his deludions of grandeur! But Olympuscorp does. And I'm not letting go of that kind of money! Besides, I've always treated those girls well!"

Sisters

"They tried to kill me, Carol. Luna did. Etton pushed the kill switch."

"What?" Carol was horrified.

"But these people, C! They...they gave me the life we have always wanted! They'll take you too!"

Carol stood there for a few minutes. She didn't move. Then-!

Joy. Liberation. Love.

"....I understand."

She looked at Lucas and Jack, and her helmet fell, revealing her smiling face.

"Thank you. For saving my sister."

"We still need to save Alice. So...how about I help you clear up?"

Carol grinned and flared Percival's Semblance. She flew, morphed her hands into Zeus....and let it loose on tge turrets.

Luna's greatest weapon had turned on them.

"Then tell us who persuaded you to hit Beth's kill switch," Dex hissed.

Jack smiled, "I call first dibs on the doctor." He walked over, seeing Surt, he looked up at it, before walking over to the wall of the fortress, putting his hand on it, pressed the broken blade against the wall, and activating it, ready to attempting to melt a massive hole through the wall with the explosive inferno, he could feel it singe him. He forced himself to continue to burning through the wall, forcing himself until there was just a molten hole through the wall.

GOLDCAB
"Sail faster, Zebra!" Davros commanded with a smile. "Steer us between the boats!"

As he said that, he sat back normally, no longer trying to shoot the guns with his feet. Instead, he started to rotate the tank's gun turret so that the main cannon went to the right, and the rear cannon went to the left.

Black Team - Interrogation and Terrorizing

Oscar slammed the doctor's back against the wall. "Olympuscorp? You assholes have a contract with those punks? Fine then, answer me this. Where. Is. Alice?" he snarled, his armor beginning to form over his body as he held the doctor.

Black Team: Squealing like a pig

Etton screamed. "Yes! We do! In fact, they funded this entire operation! They took us in after Schnee kicked us out!"

"As for Alice...she's....oh, Dust, not the throat...on Omega Level! At the very bottom! You can't...you can't take her! She's being repaired! She'll die if she's removed from her pod for long!"

Team Black

Oscar...released the doctor. "Alright Doc, take us there. The Jade Family will be taking these girls in just like Beth." He sighed before he shook his head and gestured to the doctor.

"Yes! We can go save her...!" Dex said. "But we'll need him to finish the repairs, otherwise she'll die..."

'Green Team"

The two enemy tanks fired at Hal and Davros with their main cannons.....only to be blocked by by a glowing green shield of Aura. Hal had flared his Semblance.

"Come on kid! There's more troops on the way! Fire!"

The Wham Moment

At that moment-!

A bladed tentacle flew....and pierced Etton's heart. The old man fell, dead.

Beth stood, horrified at what she had done. Beth spoke, her voice trembling. "What...did...I....do?"

And then she spoke again, in a mechanical voice. "Beta-Two emergency override activated. Assuming full control."

Her tentacles lashed out.

"No! No! Mama, heeelp!"

Meanwhile-!

"Gamma-Three emergency override activated. Assuming full control."

Carol flared Percival's semblance, flying into the air. She rained down Zeus's lightning at Red Team.

"What's happening to me?!"

"Oh dust, NO! We gotta do something! Find the control room! Steiner must be controlling her!" Dex shouted to the other hunters.

Red Team — Out of Control

Lucas's head was spinning as he dodged the attacks. Attacks that Carol was sending at him.

No. Who's controlling her? Wait, scratch that, it's probably Steiner, that bastard. But we can't let her continue to rampage, she's going to hurt someone. Or she'd hurt herself beyond repair. Damn it, what do we do?

Soon, a plan formed in his head.

"Calypso, Barry!" Lucas said into the comm. "Distract whoever's controling Carol. Fire shots at her, but don't have them hit her anywhere vital. We need her alive."

"Jack, Raqib. Help Grey and Remus finish off their robots, then find Percival and move him to a safer location. I sensed him going down earlier, and it's a good chance that a low Aura is the cause."

"Grey, Remus. Get Rufous and disable any remaining turrets. Then assist Barry and Calypso."

"And Carol!" For this last one, he was facing her as he yelled. "Keep fighting the controls. You can do this. I trust you will."

And with that, Lucas prepared an ice arrow. It was to be a last resort, though — only if everyone else couldn't keep Carol's sudden hijacker busy...

"Red Squadron, I like the cut of-"

He cut into the turret.

"-Lucas's gib. I say move forward as he planned.

"Positive, Remus?"

GOLDCAB
"That is the spirit," Davros replied back to Hal. For the few moments when the other tanks were reloading the cannons they had just fired, he continued to rotate the gun turret until it was perpendicular to its normal orientation. When the tank was in between the two opposing ones, he fired both the rear and main cannons off, each side shooting a different tank at close range.

Black Team

"No time, Dex!" Pius replied. "We need to neutralize her now!"

"Ieria, the ammo pack! Medus, Dex, cover us!" The Nobel yelled as he kept bobbing and weaving out of the tentacles' way. With the ammo pack that the Faunus girl held, he could keep Beth encased in ice from the neck down until they could give control of her body back to her.

Red Team

With both main turrets and emergency turrets gone, it seemed only a dozen or so expendable robots and Carol were all that could harass the Red Team. That assumption was very, very wrong.

From a compartment in the wall, Luna dropped an ice Dust grenade at Jack. He was thrown backwards by the kinetic force of the explosion, and the Dust component froze the concrete wall back to solidity. This icy tactic was repeated all over Luna's walls, encasing the compound in an ice-cold barrier. Even when the super-tough ice melted, the grenades' prototype "permafrost aftereffect" would leave the walls stronger against breaking and harder to melt than before.

Meanwhile, eight holes opened up in the ground in front of where the turrets once stood, pushing an item each up to the surface. They were...

...lidded wicker baskets?

"If only I had brought my ice crystals instead of the lightning ones!" Dex said in frustration as he ducked under a tentacle. "What can I do with lightning that won't fry her through her metal armor? And stinging her won't stop her armor either!"

Black Team

Oscar's eyes went wide when Beth pierced Etton's heart. "Shit!" He sprinted back into the room and zoomed past Pius and the rest of the Team before hurling himself at Beth and trying to pin her to the wall. He glanced back at Team MIND. "GO! We'll hold her off! Find the asshole controlling her and make him stop!" He roared, trying to restrain Beth as best he could.

"Beth! Snap out of it!" Francesca called, doing her best to talk the girl out of it.

Ieria turned to Pius and shrugged. "We had better do what they say..." She whispered before gesturing to the hallway.
