Enmerald Forest. 0902 hours...
3rd person POV.

Alex: "God damn it! I think I'll need a new set of underpants!"
-The leader shouted on the radio, with his parachute now opened and controling it so he wouldn't fall on a bad spot.

David: "I think Chris may have some for you!"
-The sniper replied on the radio, laughing audibly.

Alex: "I don't think they'll fit!"

Christian: "Oh, ha ha ha! You guys are so funny!"
-The Ranger responded sarcastically annoyed, hearing the conversation between the other two.

Donovan: "I'm about to land!"
-The Marine informed just before he made contact with the ground, rolling a little bit before he took off his parachute.

Alex: "I see you, I'm right behind ya!" -the leader said, making the bulky Marine turn around and see him land a couple of meters away from him.- "Alright! Me and Donovan are on the ground, how about you guys?"

Christian: "Well, I just got stuck in a fucking tree!"
-The Ranger replied, sounding midly infuriated. Fortunately, someone was already on his way to rescue him.

David: "I see him! I'll take care of it."

Alex: "Good! Once everyone is ready, we'll be on our way to the ruins."
-The leader said as he grabbed his rifle, taking the safety off and getting ready for a fight.

Donovan: "I managed to spot some ruins in the air. I think they're North of here."
-The Marine replied as he pointed at the direction where he saw the ruins.

Alex: "We are separated from now. We'll regroup at the ruins. Be careful and don't get yourselves killed. Hunter out."
-The leader replied, getting of the radio and looking at Donovan.

Christian/David: "Roger that."

Donovan: "Ok, let's go."
-He said before he began to walk, keeping his weapon ready, just in case.

Meanwhile...

Back into Beacon Academy, all of the students, and some teachers, were seeing the American's initiation, some already making assumptions. "I bet the big one can take an Ursa alone!", said one. "They just look tough, I bet they're some weaklings.", another one replied.
However, a certain red-hooded girl was just amazed at their weaponry.

Ruby: "Woaaaah! Those guns look so cool!"
-Ruby Rose, leader of team RWBY, said as she stared at Alex's OICW. She was the youngest of the team, and her affinity for guns was apparent.

Weiss: "Ruby, please... That's just heavy and impractical..."
-Weiss Schnee, second member of the team, replied as she facepalmed. Born in a rich family, it is common for her to be a bit stubborn at times.

Blake: "Well, he seems to carry it like it's no big deal."
-Blake Belladona, third member of the team, added as she pointed at Alex, noticing how swiftly he moved with that thing, despite its huge size and heavy weight.

Yang: "Well, if we're talking about heavy you just have to look at the big guy over there."
-Yang Xiao Long, fourth member of the team, and Ruby's sister, said as she pointed at Donovan, whom was behind Alex, covering his back.
However, their little conversation was interrupted when David's huge M107 fired a round.

*BANG!!*

Christian: "Hunter! This is Supply! We got contact! I say again! We got contact!"
-The Ranger shouted before he fired a couple of bursts from his M4A1, assisting the sniper.

With Christian and David...

*BANG!! BANG!! BANG-BANG!! BANG!! BANG!!*

The deafning sound of the rifle was so loud that it could practically shake the ground. Each bullet fired was an instant kill from him, but unfortunately his arms and shoulder could last so long, so when he crouched down, Christian instantly came by his side and fired a couple of rounds from his carbine, assisting him.

*BRATATATA! BRATATATA! BRATATATA!*

Alex: "Kid! Are you alright?"
-The leader screamed on the radio, asking for a situation report from them.

Christian: "Listen to the shooting!"
-He replied before David fired another shot, instantly killing a Boarbatusk that charged directly at Christian, making it fall and roll violently on the grass, gradually turning into dust.

*BANG!!*

Alex: "We hear you! Do you need assistance?"
-He responded. Now that they heard the gunfire, they could be able to track them and assist them. They could also regroup sooner than expected.

David: "The sooner the better!"
-The sniper replied as he quickly drew his MK.23, killing a Beowolf that charged at him.

*BLAM-BLAM-BLAM-BLAMM!*

Alex: "Understood! We're moving!"

With Alex and Donovan...

Donovan: "Let's move, now!"
-The Marine shouted as he ran directly at where the gunfire was comming from, being followed by Alex.
They had quite an obstacke course, jumping over trees, rocks, avoiding holes and braches so they wouldn't trip down and fall...
But unfortunately, they also encountered quite the ambush.

Donovan: "Oh shit!"
-The Marine yelled as he fired a burst from his M60 at the huge bear, also known as an Ursa, partially wounding it and make it retreat a couple of meters since it roared in pain and anger at the attack.

*BUDDABUDDABUDDA!*

*ROOOAAAAAARRRR!!*

Alex: "Open wide, asshole!"
-The leader shouted at the beast, forcing it to look at him. A second later, he pulled the trigger, but he didn't fire a normal 5.56mm round...
Oh no.

*Thomp!*

That was a 25mm grenade with a detonation delay... Directly into the beast's face.

*BOOM!*

The result was obviusly gruesome, hut it was soon gone, just like the Ursa's face and front half of its face, as soon as the creature turned into dust.
That probably seemed like the end of the encounter, but as soon as the gigant bear dissapeared, a pack of Beowolves appeared out of the bushes.

Donovan: "Fucking hell, nigga! Where do these pussy-ass wolves come from!?"
-The Marine shouted upset before he fired his gun at them, killing one.

Alex: "Don't stop! Just keep moving and don't let them overrun you!"
-He replied before firing his rifle at another one, not noticing the third one that was coming straight at him.
He only noticed it just in time to dodge the attack, crouching and getting next to the creature. Then he proceded to hit its side with an elbow strike, forcing it to bend in pain, just the ammount of time he needed to draw his Desert Eagle and put three rounds on its torso.

*BAN-BAN-BANG!*

Alex: "Guys! I think the help may take some time, we're in a tight situation too!"
-He yelled just before he switched to his shotgun and fired it, saving Donovan from another Beowolf that was about to attack him.

Christian: "Argh! Fuck me!"
-The Ranger shouted in response just before he fired a long burst from his M249, saving David from an Ursa as it teared off the beast's head.

With David and Christian...

*BRATATATATATATATATATATATA!*

David: "Well, try to get out of it! We need some assistance here!" -the sniper shouted just before a Beowolf charged directly at him from the side, jumping on him and putting him to the ground.- "EARGH!"
-He shouted loudly as the beast began to bite his arm, fiesting on it with its razor-sharp teeth.
Forutnately, someone was already on the way to save him, kicking the wolf away from him and putting it into the ground, then proceding to cut out its belly with another long burst.

*BRATATATATATATATA!*

Christian: "MAN DOWN, MAN DOWN!" -he yelled at the top of his lungs as he crouched down next to David, switching to his M4A1 since his M249 was empty, and there was no time for reloading.- "GUYS, IF YOU'RE NOT HERE QUICK WE'RE GONNA BE FUCKING DOG FOOD!"

Alex: "Hang on! We're on our way there."
-The leader replied as Christian began to provide covering fire for David, who began to crouch up.

David: "Argh! Shit, that hurts!"
-The sniper yelled as he looked at his injured left arm. He could still hold onto his guns, but it still hurt him a lot to do so.
Christian could do something, but not in thid situation, not when they were being overrun by Beowolves and Boarbatusks.
David managed to hold onto his UMP-45, since it was lighter, and help Christian keep the creatures way from them.

*BAM-BAM BAM-BAM! BAM-BAM BAM-BAM!*

*BRATATA! BRATATA! BRATATA!*

All odds seemed to be against them. Their position looked hopeless, surrounded by a never-ending horde of beasts, slowly getting closer and closer to them.
David even threw a grenade at the horde, killing lots of them and injuring some more, but it wasn't enough to stop them.
After a while, one of the beasts was able to get close enough to them, jumping straight towards Christian, catching him reloading at a really bad time.

*BANG! Schklick-klickt!*

But it was eventually stopped mid-air, thanks to Alex trusty shotgun, whom was just behind them.

Alex: "Did we miss something!?"
-The leader asked as he fired another shot at a beast that was a bit further away.

Christian: "You guys are late!"
-He said as he went to help David, knowing that they had a better chance of surviving now.

Donovan: "Sorry! White boy here couldn't decide which tie to wear!"
-The tall Marine replied as he took aim and fired his M60 at the Grimm, stopping to reload but being covered by Alex's 25mm grenades.
After a while, the threat was eventually suppressed and neutralized.
Now Christian began to treat David's wound, which seemed pretty nasty and big.

Christian: "You ok?"
-The Ranger asked as he pulled out some necesary things from his IFAK (Individual First-Aid Kit) so he could help the sniper.

David: "Never better." -he replied sarcastically as Christian began to clean all the blood from the wound.- "That son of a bitch..."

Christian: "Easy now. This may sting a little bit, so hang on." -he said before he began to sterilize the wound, which seemed to make David complain a bit about how it burned. Eventually, he was done, and the wound was covered with a bandage.- "And done."

David: "It still hurts, but I think I can keep going."
-He said as he shook his arm a little bit, still grabbing his UMP with the other hand.

Alex: "Alright team. We've regrouped sooner than expected, but now that we're togheter we may be able to avoid another mistake like this."
-He said as he looked at David's wounded arm, supprised that he didn't lose it, considering how sharp those teeth looked.

Donovan: "Stay close to me, I'll cover."
-The gigant added as he reloaded his M60 with a brand new magazine.

Alex: "Let's move, I want a Squad File formation. Watch our flanks carefully. If anything appear in front of us, switch to a Squad Line formation. Understood?"

Donovan: "Affirmative."

David: "Roger."

Christian: "Loud and clear."

Alex: "Perfect. Now, let's move..."
