Liberating Remant

Chapter 16 The Threat Within (Part 3)

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.

"Understood, Smith. We'll get right on it," came the reply from Site Hotel Gamma.

Red Light District, Vale...

Summer led the group through the bustling streets of Vale towards the Red Light District, and the group couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

"Uh, Mom, are you sure we're going in the right direction?" Ruby asked, eyeing the surrounding area with unease.

"Don't worry, Ruby. Trust me, we're almost there," Summer reassured her daughter.

"But why are we going to the Red Light District?" Weiss asked, her curiosity piqued.

Summer smiled mysteriously. "You'll see," she said, and the group continued on their way.

As they turned a corner, they finally arrived at their destination - a small weapons shop tucked away in a back alley.

"Why are we at a weapons shop?" Blake asked, still a little confused.

"Because this shop is only open to agents like me," Summer explained, pulling out a small ID card and showing it to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper nodded, and Summer led the group inside.

The shop was full of all kinds of weapons - swords, guns, axes, you name it. The group was in awe as they looked around, admiring the craftsmanship of each piece.

"Wow, this is amazing," Pyrrha said, picking up a gleaming sword and examining it closely.

"I've never seen anything like this before," Jaune added, awestruck.

"But why are we in the Red Light District?" Ruby asked, looking around suspiciously.

"To buy weapons, of course!" Summer exclaimed, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"But we already have weapons," Weiss said, eyeing a particularly large gun on the wall.

"These aren't just any weapons," Summer replied, walking over to a display case. "These are top-of-the-line, agent-only weapons. Specialized for maximum efficiency."

Summer pointed out various weapons, including swords, crossbows, and other types of guns. Each weapon was sleek and well-maintained, with unique features that set them apart from the standard fare.

"And what makes these guns so special?" Yang asked, picking up a particularly shiny pistol.

"They don't use regular Dust," Summer explained. "They use a special kind of propellant that's only available to agents like me."

The group looked impressed, but also a little uneasy. They had never been in a place like this before, and the idea of their mother being a secret agent was still sinking in.

"But why do you need such advanced weapons?" Jaune asked, looking at a particularly intimidating-looking rifle.

"Well, let's just say that my line of work requires a certain level of firepower," Summer said cryptically, before leading them over to the counter to make their purchases.

As they browsed through the weapons shop, Ruby's eyes widened in excitement as she spotted a display of modern sniper rifles from the US. "Wow! These are amazing!" she exclaimed, unable to contain her excitement. Her friends and family chuckled at her enthusiasm, but they were happy to see her enjoying herself.

"These are so cool!" Ruby exclaimed, picking up one of the rifles.

Summer led the group to the modern sniper rifles, explaining that they were specially designed for agents like her to take down dangerous targets. She warned them to be careful around these weapons because the bullets could pierce through Aura like butter.
