A/N: Today I'm doing a crossover with fellow writer RMSchmidt566's team EMBR, go check out Schmidt's profile and enjoy this story.

The chugging of the freight train woke Isaac from his deep sleep, he looked around to find he was still in the freight car, crates of various sizes were scattered everywhere, and Gareth was at the door, peeking at the outside.

Isaac: *stands up* What are you doing brother?

Gareth: *Turns around* Oh, you're awake, I was looking for something.

Isaac: What ya looking for?

Gareth: Our heritage.

Isaac: What, our heritage?

Gareth: *points outside the freight car* There it is. *puts a hand on Isaac's shoulder* hang on.

Gareth holds a hand outside the hand car and in a bright flash, he and Isaac vanish from the freight car and appear on the edge of a small forest. In a small clearing was a series of ruins, broken marble pillars lined the edges of the ruins and the marble floor was overgrown with vegetation. The most prominent feature however was a small opening in the ground.

Isaac: What's this?

Gareth: This is the secret hideout of the Foglance clan.

Isaac: Wait, we were descended from a clan?!

Gareth: Yes, and I think all the answers we need lie inside, follow me.

Gareth leads Isaac into the small opening, which spirals down into what looks like a large burial crypt, the walls were lined with indentations, each one containing a linen wrapped skeleton and a name plate. On the far wall were a series of murals.

Isaac: What is this place?

Gareth: This is our family's burial crypt, and beyond that lies the tomb of the founder of our clan, Altsera Foglance.

Isaac: And what are these pictures?

Gareth: Let me show you.

Gareth leads Isaac to the first mural, which shows a scarf clad raccoon faunus with a spear standing on a hill.

Gaerth: In ancient times long forgotten, Altsera Foglance laid claim to this land and build a secret clan of warriors.

Gareth shows Isaac the second mural, which shows an army of warriors kneeling before a shining image of the same faunus.

Gareth: Our clan became prosperous under Altsera's rule, and he almost raised them to kingdom status.

The third mural showed Altsera's body being sealed in a stone sarcophagus.

Gareth: But it wasn't to last, when Altsera pasted from this world, his son Briso took over, and the clan began to deteriorate.

The fourth mural showed men with guns and other weapons attacking the Foglance warriors.

Gareth: Then came the great war, the Foglance clan was unprepared and collapsed, the survivors fled into the woods, starting new lives, like our father Soren.

The final mural shows the shining silhouette of a lone faunus standing on the same hill in the first mural.

Gareth: However, not all was lost, as it is prophesied that a last descendant of the Foglance clan will rise up, resurrect our clan, and hold the fate of Remnant in his hands. *turns to Isaac* So you see Isaac, I think you can mean the difference between Remnant's salvation, or it's total downfall.

At that moment a cat faunus with black hair and a black tail emerges from cover, she was wearing a purple white trimmed combat skirt, and was clutching two kama tight in her fists.

Maggie: I'd really appreciate it if you two could not destroy my home.

Isaac: Who the heck is that!?

Gareth: *puts something in Isaac's hand* just use that to open the main burial chamber *draws his dueling saber* I'll take care of her.

Isaac: Alright, be careful brother. *Isaac starts quickly limping deeper into the catacombs*

Isaac keeps limping until he comes across a large stone door, the door itself was carved with intricate wind-like designs and had a large crest that featured two crossed spears and a tornado at the center. Isaac then looks at the object Gareth gave to him, which is a shiny signet ring with a large sapphire in the middle.

Isaac: Hmm, I wonder?

Isaac holds the ring up to the door, and the sapphire begins to glow. A moment later, the door creaks open. Inside Isaac finds a massive room filled with furniture, food, and weapons. At the center of the room there was a stone sarcophagus on a raised platform.

Isaac: This must be Atsera's tomb.

Isaac hears the sounds of voices raising outside.

Isaac: Oh no, they're coming, I can't fight them like this.

Isaac uses the ring to close the door.

Bondi: What are the odds you can open this? *chuckles and pushes on the door*

Magnolia: Zero to none... *sigh* lets just get back to the other two.

Isaac: W-who's that out there?

Bondi: Just some huntresses. We're just hiding from the Grimm and the white fang. We promise we won't hurt you if you don't try to hurt us.

Maggie stepped on Bondi's foot.

Isaac: Hold on a moment, you're the lady who attacked my brother!

Magnolia: You're destroying my city! everyone out their is dead because of you and your messed up clan and it's stupid prophecies!

Bondi: Maggie calm down, this is all just the white fang he has nothing to do with it.

Isaac: You must be joking, the downfall of Vale was Atlas's fault!

Magnolia: Ironwood saved our lives! The atlesian soldiers who are dying for us are the reason half of us aren't dead yet!

Isaac: Don't buy into that, Ironwood wanted to take over Vale all for some sick dream of conquest! I tried to stop him twice, but he broke my leg. I swear, if I ever find him again, I'll make his robot arm into a trophy!

Bondi: You're insane! If he tried that he'd lose all his power! He'd be outlawed for treason. The council will turn on him!

Isaac: You're fooling yourself, they were the ones who told him to do it. Listen, you can still do some good here, you can support me in destroying that twisted monster that calls himself a "man" and topple Atlas's power hungry counsel along the way.

Magnolia: We topple Atlas we lose our families! Our parents lose their jobs. The atlesian economy fails, Grimm take over, our parents die! No deal!

Isaac: If you're an ally to Atlas, then you're an enemy to me! Now leave this place, or you won't live to regret your mistake!

Maggie: Let's leave this delusional kid... He's no help anyways. Let's just get back to Ember and Rose.

Bondi nodded and turned around with Mag and started to walk away. But then the stone door creaks open suddenly, and Isaac emerges riding on a large tornado.

Isaac: No you don't, I'll do one kind thing for my enemies, my tomb will now become yours!

Bondi: Stop! *she and Maggie backed away from Isaac, you don't need to be doing this! You're letting the Grimm win! *notices Issac's eyes turn pink for a brief moment*

Bondi: I don't think that was good. we should run...

Maggie nodded in silence as the two turned and ran.

Isaac: *rage consumes his expression* get back here! *glides after them*

The two met back up with the rest of their team, and Em and Rose started running with them, leaving Gareth alone. Turbulent wind starts to fill the tomb and the walls start rumbling.

Isaac: You will not escape!

The entrance starts caving in.

Ember: Out of the frying pan into the fire...

Rose: But Ember, fire is your specialty.

Team EMBR reached the exit but it was already collapsing, Bondi used her semblance to create a shield which held up the falling rubble long enough for them to escape.

Isaac: No, no, what have I done?!

Gareth: Calm yourself brother.

Isaac: But, I just destroyed the only exit.

Gareth: Not the only one.

Isaac: What do you mean?

Gareth: Did you open Altsera's tomb?

Isaac: Yes, I did.

Gareth: Then, then he will be there.

Isaac: Who will be there?

Gareth: It's been a tradition of our clan's leaders to speak to Altsera's spirit for advice.

Isaac: And he'll give us a way out?

Gareth: Better, let's go.

Gareth and Isaac hurry back to Altsera's tomb. when they get there however, they find Altsera's ghost sitting on his sarcophagus. Altsera wore a simple leather armor set, a flowing blue scarf, and was clutching a spear in his right hand.

Gareth: T-there he is!

Isaac: Altsera Foglance himself!

Both Isaac and Gareth run inside and kneel before the sarcophagus' raised platform.

Isaac: Oh noble Altsera, your humble descendants come before you seeking advice.

Altsera: Hmm, don't speak to me like I'm your better, speak to me like I'm your bad peer.

Gareth: As you wish, Altsera. *they both stand up*

Altsera: Now, what do you wish to know?

Isaac: We seek to save Remnant from complete subjugation by a horrible force.

Altsera: I am well aware, your enemy has an army, to defeat him, you will require the same.

Isaac: But how do we get an army?

Altsera: You are descended from one of the greatest warrior clans the world over, bring our clan back to power, and you will have your army.

Gareth: How are we gonna do that though?

Altsera: Here, take this.

Altsera floats to a box in the corner of his tomb, pulls something out of the box, and places it in Gareth's hands. The object was an amulet, it's center charm was a silver emblem of two intercrossed spears and a tornado at the center.

Gareth: This- this is.

Isaac: The Foglance clan's official seal of power.

Altsera: With this amulet, many warriors are sure to join your cause. Now my descendants I must leave you, may good fortune follow wherever you lead.

As Altsera vanishes, a panel on the stone wall moves aside, revealing daylight on the other side.

Isaac: Gareth look, a way out!

Isaac rushes to the exit, Gareth following close behind. The exit leads to the top of a large hill with overlooks the surrounding landscape.

Gareth: Hmm, this would make a good strategic location for a home base.

Isaac: You forget brother, we need to get an army, and rescue Mabel.

Gareth: You, Isaac also forget. We need to get rid of Atlas before they take over the rest of Remnant.

Isaac: Alright alright, I'll go to Atlas to get our hands on some weapons and other stuff, and you go to Minstral to set the groundwork for the Foglance clan.

Gareth: But you're the one who will lead our clan to the future, why don't you go get them started?

Isaac: Because if I try to gain power as Isaac, Atlas will find us, and all of this will be for nothing.

Gareth: But what if you weren't Isaac?

Isaac: What do you mean by that?

Gareth: What if you take on a new identity, one that won't give you away to Atlas?

Isaac: Yeah, but I still feel safer if someone who isn't suspected does it.

Gareth: Fair enough.

Isaac sees an Atlesian bullhead flying over head.

Isaac: Alright, that's my ride, good hunting.

Isaac creates a small cyclone and leaps high into the air, latching onto the side of the bullhead. Isaac then crawled along the side of the bullhead and slipped in through the air duct. Isaac started crawling through the vents, eventually finding an opening into some kind of employee lodge. In the room were two Atlesian troopers, each one holding a coffee mug.

Trooper 1: Ya know, I'm not a big fan of our orders to return to Atlas.

Trooper 2: I agree, we should be out there trying to stop the White Fang or something.

Trooper 1: Eh, you hear about that student from Beacon that tried to kill the general twice?

Trooper 2: Yeah I heard about him, if he ever shows his face around here, I'll kill him myself.

The troopers continue talking as they leave the lodge, one of them leaves a terminal strip on the coffee table.

Isaac: Hello, what do we have here?

Isaac opens the vent, drops into the lodge, and retrieves the terminal strip.

Isaac: This'll come in handy.

Isaac exits the employee lodge and ends up in a long hallway, at one end was a double door with frosted windows, the sounds of chatter could be heard on the other side. At the other end was an automatic steel door with a handpad.

Isaac: *looks at the steel door* hmm, that looks promising.

Isaac hears someone fiddling with the knob on the other door, and quickly hides behind the employee lodge door. That's when another trooper came through the door, Isaac looked around the lodge for something he could use and finds a dirty glass cup. Isaac picks it up and waits for the trooper to pass him, then he throws the glass at the trooper's head, knocking him out.

Isaac: *runs up to the trooper and steals one of his gauntlets* I'll be taking this.

Isaac then shoves the trooper's body into a nearby janitor's closet and goes up to the steel door before putting the gauntlet he acquired on the handpad.

Handpad: Identity match, access granted.

The door opens and Isaac goes through to find a small console showing various files about key locations. Isaac sits at the keyboard and starts searching. After a moment of searching, a certain file catches Isaac's attention.

Isaac: And what is this?

Isaac opens the file and it shows him a secure facility and tells him it's a place for storing weapons and various other things.

Isaac: *smiles* Jackpot.

Ship announcer: Attention all passengers, we will be arriving in Atlas in 10 minutes.

Isaac: Time to go.

Isaac hears someone talking outside.

Trooper: Trooper down, I repeat, trooper down!

Isaac: Definitely time to go.

Isaac crawls into the vents again and arrives in a large room filled with students from all academies, including a few he recognized. Knowing he couldn't be spotted, Isaac put on his hood and disappeared into the crowd. He started listening in on many different conversations, but one in particular caught his attention.

Theodore: This healing liquid still itches.

Yvette: Theodore, don't scratch it, that'll only make it worse.

Isaac sees Theodore sitting against a wall talking to Yvette, he had a red eyepatch on his left eye and his cloak was torn up.

Theodore: Yvette, you think Mabel's alright?

Yvette: They didn't make her team leader for nothing.

Theodore: What about Henry?

Yvette: Henry's tough, I'm sure he made it out too.

The bullhead suddenly lands.

Trooper: Alright people, right this way.

All the students start exiting the room, they end up outside on a massive landing platform, Isaac looks around and sees the testing facility he chose to target in the distance. He starts heading for it, only to be stopped by a pair of guards.

Guard 1: You there, identify yourself.

Isaac: I'm uh--.

Isaac looks around and sees a badge with the team name DIRT on it.

Isaac: I'm Darrel gravel, leader of team DIRT.

Guard 2: Oh really? You'll have to come with us so we can be sure.

Isaac: Don't you two have to take inventory?

Guard 1: Skin me alive he's right!

Guard 2: The general will make us run 100 laps if we don't take inventory! You stay right here, we'll be right back!

The two guards rush inside the ship and Isaac once again vanishes into the crowd. Eventually finding his opportunity, Isaac broke off from the main group, snuck past more guards, and reached the research facility.

Isaac: *scans the building* Now how do I get inside?

Isaac finds an open shipping entrance.

Isaac: Ah-ha, that's my ticket in.

Isaac rushes inside and hides behind a large box, looking around for guards. Little did he know however, is that a passing Winter had seen him before hand.

Winter: *pulls out a communicator* Sir, I found someone who matches that student who attacked you.

Ironwood: Follow him and detain him, deadly force is authorized.

Back with Isaac, he was carefully sneaking through the research facility, knowing he wouldn't be able to fight if he was spotted. Isaac thought he was gonna be in and out, but then Winter came in accompanied by at least 10 elite Atlesian troopers.

Winter: Spread out and find him. Be careful, he's incredibly dangerous, shoot to kill.

The troopers all spread out into various parts of the building.

Isaac's mind: Just when I thought this was gonna be easy.

TheVoiceOfLeon: Just remember Coonie, nothing in this life is easy, so just chug on head first, that's what I always do! Uh... don't worry about the concussions though.

Isaac ducked between a crate and a wall to avoid being seen, making sure to use his semblance to reduce noise. Isaac then hurries into another room, inside he finds a massive computer.

Isaac: Bingo, the mainframe.

Isaac walks up to the computer and finds an input shaped like the terminal strip he found. He plugs it in and the computer requests a password.

Isaac: Hmm, password?

VoiceOfLeon: Passwords are like a look through someone's eyes, honestly, some people make the dumbest passwords, like PASSWORD or, and get this, Fido, yes, people use pet names for passwords... it's kinda funny actually...

Isaac: This technology was obviously payed for by the Schnee dust company. Hold on a minute.

Isaac typed Schnee into the password box, and it was accepted. Isaac then combed through the computer's files, until one file caught his eye.

Isaac: What's this, file A-G-X-5-1-7, that looks promising.

Isaac opens the file and inside he finds schematics for many different Atlesian weapons and secrets.

Isaac: I am so taking this one.

Isaac types a few commands and the computer starts downloading the file into his terminal strip. Knowing that the download would take a while, Isaac starts rummaging through the random crates stored in the room, in the far corner of the room Isaac found a small dusty crate.

Isaac: What's this?

Inside the crate were five canisters the size of a piggy bank, the canisters contained a thick black liquid with red bits churning inside like a lava lamp.

Isaac: *Looks at the side of one of the canisters* GX virus, what does that mean?

VoiceOfLeon: Fun fact... Atlas used to do really weird grim based experiments, like... crazy stuff... legend says... they tried recreating grim so they could figure out what makes them tick, y'know? It also says- Hey Nina, you gonna finish that? Why're you staring at me like that?

Isaac hears the computer say his download is 100% complete, he picks up the whole crate and goes to the computer and takes out his terminal strip.

Isaac: Alright, time to go.

Winter suddenly busts the door down.

Isaac's mind: Oh not good!

Winter: Stop right there Isaac, in the name of Atlas, you're under arrest!

Isaac: *draws his blade staff* stay back, or the Schnee family's gonna be short one member!

Winter: Don't be foolish, you can't fight me in your condition. Now come along quietly or I'll have to use force!

VoiceOfNina: One thing my brother did tell me during our time as reckless mercs, there's always a better way out, you just gotta think it through...

Winter starts walking towards Isaac as he frantically looks for a way out, when he sees a skylight above him. Isaac quickly picked up the GX virus crate and used his semblance to jump up and smash through the skylight.

Isaac: Sorry ms. Schnee, maybe you'll catch me some other day.

Isaac rushes to the front of the building and finds a bullhead landed outside. He glides back down to street level, sneaks aboard the bullhead, and puts his blade staff to the pilot's neck.

Isaac: Now listen carefully, we're going to Minstral, you got that!?

The pilot nervously nods and wastes no time taking off, just in time for Winter to witness it.

Winter: *pull out communicator* Sir, Isaac's escaping, and he hijacked our bullhead!

Ironwood: *turns to an officer on his end of the line* You, get the lightning spectres in the air, Isaac isn't slipping through our fingers again!

Officer: Yes sir!

Isaac was still threatening the pilot, by now he had just passed out of Atlas proper. When the radio suddenly comes on.

Blackbolt: This is Blackbolt of the Lightning specters, land immediately or we'll send you to the ground ourselves!

Pilot: Wait, the Lightning specters are here, we gotta--!

Isaac: No, you keep flying, I'll go tend to our guests!

Isaac walked to the bullhead's door and opened it up, just in the clouds he saw two fighter jets approaching. Using his semblance, he manipulated the wind, throwing the two jets off their flight paths and forcing them to crash into each other. Two more jets fly in from behind and fire four missiles at Isaac's bullhead, Isaac then creates a wind shield around the bullhead which turns the missiles back round, they slam back into the two jets that fired them, blowing both of them up.

Pilot 1: Sir, this isn't working, we can't stop this guy!

Blackbolt: Keep it together Leroy, he's just a teen!

Pilot: Sir, we got a problem.

Blackbolt: What is is Jenkins?

Jenkins: We got something big and angry closing fast!

Their jets rumble in response to a loud screech, followed by a nevermore twice the size of the jets diving out of the clouds.

Blackbolt: Giant nevermore, evasive maneuvers!

The nevermore swoops in and tears into Leroy's jet, blowing it apart in an instant.

Jenkins: What do we do sir!

Blackbolt: Go after Isaac, I got this!

Jenkins sped off after Isaac while Blackbolt turned his jet around towards the nevermore.

Blackbolt: Time to blast you into the great bird feeder in the sky!

Blackbolt unloads all his missiles on the nevermore, which retaliates by throwing a volley of feathers back, the explosion was massive, and Blackbolt couldn't see anything.

Blackbolt: Where are you, you oversized pigeon!?!

The nevermore suddenly flies out of the cloud of smoke and rips one of Blackbolt's wings off.

Blackbolt: Jenkins, Jenkins come in, I'm going down, it's up to you now!

Isaac: We're sorry, the radio your calling is no longer in service, please leave a message to the number 1800- never call me again, thank you.

Blackblot opened his mouth to reply, but the nevermore grabbed his jet in it's beak, blowing it apart.

Isaac: *looks at the falling debris* Heh heh, I love being a huntsman.

Pilot: You call yourself a huntsman!?! You--!

Isaac: Shut up and call Ironwood!

Pilot: What, no!

Isaac: *puts his blade staff to the pilot's neck* Sorry, I didn't catch that, can you speak up?

Pilot: Um, of course.

The pilot reaches for his radio and turns the knob a few times.

Ironwood: Report?

Isaac: Hello James.

Ironwood: What, how did you get this line!?!

Isaac: Lucky guess, ya know that was a good attempt. But if you're gonna catch me, you're gonna have to do better than that!

Ironwood: You can't avoid justice forever Isaac!

Isaac: *laughs out loud* how amusing, and ironic to hear you say those words. Tell you what, I'll be back in a few months so we can meet face to fist. And when I do come back, Atlas will burn in the fires of the rage of all those lives your conquest destroyed! Until then James, this is goodbye, ta ta. *smashes the radio*

Someone on the general's end speaks up.

Engineer: Sir, sir, file A-G-X-5-1-7 is missing from the digital vault, I think that kid stole it!

Ironwood: *clenches his fist* Get Winter back here, she's got a new mission. As for you lot, make sure we contain as much of this as possible, am I understood!?

Engineer: Sir if I may ask, what's in that file that's so important?

Ironwood: It contains schematics on several different weapons and ordnance, as well as several Atlesian secrets. If Isaac learns how to use them, he could very well deliver on that promise to destroy Atlas, or even all of Remnant!

Engineer: Ah yes sir * sits down and contacts Winter* Special officer Schnee, return to base for new orders.

Winter eventually did return, prepared to accept new orders.

Winter: *stands at attention* Ready to take new mission sir.

Ironwood: Alright listen up, only a few days from now, Isaac was merely a pest gnawing at our feet, but today, he has risen that stakes. Before Isaac escaped, he stole file A-G-X-5-1-7 from our digital vaults. If Isaac unlocks the potential of that file's contents, Atlas and all of Remnant could be at risk.

Winter: Understood, where is he going?

Ironwood: We recently heard from intelligence that he's heading for Mistral, take our finest elite troopers there and take Isaac down!

Winter: *salutes* Yes sir!

Ironwood: Don't fail me, Atlas itself is on the line!

Isaac had been flying for a few days, upon arrival, he silenced the pilot and started looking around.

Isaac: Gareth, brother you here?!?

Someone reaches out of an alleyway and pulls Isaac in, Isaac struggling the whole way. The figure had a burlap cloak and black gloves, but that was all Isaac can see.

Isaac: Let go! *batts the figure off and draws his blade staff*

Gareth: Woah hold on brother it's me! *removes his hood and reveals his identity*

Isaac: D-don't scare me like that brother!

Gareth: Sorry, I had to, now what did you steal, aside from a bullhead of course?

Gareth leads Isaac to secret underground tunnel system. In a large, dome shaped room made of stone bricks lied stolen weapons, Xed out pictures of important looking people, and a small computer.

Gareth: Go ahead, put in that terminal strip.

Isaac dos so and various files featuring weapons, and secrets appeared on screen.

Isaac: *Opens a certain file* what does this one say? *starts to read* Though I had to pull many strings and work for countless months, I finally acquired the grimm DNA necessary to complete the experiment, Subject Zero aka were-beo is showing signs of agitation, while subject ten aka Leon appears to be dreaming.

Isaac knew exactly what this was, but Gareth didn't seem to. Isaac quickly switches to a new file, which show the schematics for a massive suit of armor.

Isaac: Hmm, yes, yes this is perfect. Look out Ironwood, for soon, you will bleed, and Atlas will fall

Isaac's evil laughter fills the room and echos through the surrounding tunnels like a nightmare.   

End of part 15
