Chapter XIII: Set Board (Filler Chapter)

The Very Next Day...

Four 'White Fang members' entered one of the larger villages in Menagerie. Holding hostage two figures wearing bags over their heads. Faunus civilians couldn't care less as they went on with their day. Mindlessly giving glances at the two unknown figures beneath the rags which hid their identity.

Asher: One of their major bases must be around here somewhere, I know it!

Amber: It is, trust me I remember this town like the back of my hand.

The twins spoke in hushed voices, Ace and Lilith had the benefit of having bags that weren't opaque as ones that would've been used, so they were given a slight view of the civilization around them.

Ace: Once we get into their base, we'll go right to the main city of Menagerie, the biggest one here. Find Adam Taurus and Sienna Khan's Main establishment, and once we've infiltrated that, we lock them in the throne room Amber described, maim them so freakin' bad their mothers will never tell who they are, lastly force Adam to tell us where Salem is.

Lilith: Simple... yet it could work.

Lilith's muffled voice acknowledged.

Amber: Why thank you, I've been working on it for awhile.

Elle: Shh, guys. Don't speak too much, I think the civilians are beginning to notice us.

She warned.

Amber: Nothin' to see here people. Go on about your day! Please.

Meanwhile...

Jaune knelt in fear before a disappointment Salem, her red eyes bore into his ice cold blue ones with ease, forcing the blonde abomination to avoid looking at her with the very fright that he did not want to show.

Salem: I thought I trained you well Arc.

She sighed, shaking her head slowly in dissatisfaction.

Jaune: Mistress! I-I tried, but he wasn't alone, so I had to... had to try and adapt to the difficult situation, yet. He got his semblance back!

Jaune reasons, trying to bring in hardships during his previous fight instead of admitting he was defeated.

Salem: Fine then, I'll give you this one chance... One. Chance. To hunt him down, I don't know his location, since my Grimm have been busy trying to wear down their forces ever since Y/N'a operation against Schnee Dust. So you'll have to join up with Tenebris, one of my older subordinates.

The white haired part-Beowolf, part-woman stepped out of the shadows surrounding Jaune. The older female looked him up and down, noticing his charred, rotten-like arm that had recently been severed from the elbow up.

Tenebris: This is who I have to work with?...

She glared at her superior, Salem gave back a blank stare. Tenebris looked back at Jaune and sighed.

Tenebris: Y/N would've been a better option, granted you hadn't thrown him away after he failed once like all the other ones.

Salem: Failure is unacceptable to the highest extents, my mission against mankind cannot have one single flaw. Everything has to be done down to the letter. Understood?

Jaune: Yes Ma'am Mistress sir!

Jaune cried, standing up and doing a corny salute with his remaining left hand.

Salem: Y/N's clearly off his mind if he thinks he can stop me. My Grimm armies span miles across Remnant, let's see him try. Adam Taurus should report to me sooner or later should his White Fang forces cone across something worth noting in the campaign against the humans...

Salem spoke, as she watched Jaune and Tenebris depart in their search for Y/N and his gang of lackeys. Sitting back in her humble throne room as she closed her eyes and day-dreamt of the final victory she hopes for to receive after years of preparation.
