*A few days after the events of Chapter 2*

Standing... On the edge... On the roof of a building in Beacon with Jaune right beside me, looking at me like I was some sort of creep.

Jaune: (Blinking and slowly walking away) So... Gonna tell me what we are doing here?

Kestrel: (Does an 180° turn) It's YOU Jaune, you're gonna ask Pyrrha for forgiveness.

Jaune: (Stops there) What?

Suddenly, a hand landed on his shoulder.

Pyrrha: (Smiling as always) Hello!

Kestrel: Alright Pyrrha, he's yours. I'm gonna go back with my sisters.

JP: Em... Bye Kestrel. | Bye!

As I left them I started to remember the day I woke up after the events in Forever Fall.

*Le Flashback*

I was in the hospital room while getting checked.

Kestrel: (looking at Rex, Holt, Team RWBY and Ozpin) So... You already introduced each other?

Holt: Nah, kid. Forgot to do it while we were saving your ass.

Rex: (Smacks him in the head) What Holt was trying to say is that we didn't. (Turns to Team RWBY) Name's Rex. Member of the Global Risk... Or what it remains from them.

I stared at him confused.

Holt: (Mocks salute) Name's Holt. Also a member of what remains of Global Risk.

Rex: And the only guy who can't go further than the rank of Specialist.

Holt: Hey!

Ruby: Hi! I'm Ruby Rose, nice to meet you!

Weiss: I'm Weiss Schnee, Hei- (Kes: No one cares about that one) rude, and being an Specialist is bad?

Rex: They're right below the rank of Corporal. Basically he is stuck in the line of FNG's and NCO's.

Holt pouted at that and had his arms crossed... Don't ask me how I know it cuz he has the mask on.

Blake: Blake, nice to meet you.

Holt: (Mock salutes) Yo.

Rex: Likewise.

Yang: Yang Xiao Long. Thanks for taking care of my lil' bro.

Kestrel: As I said, I'm younger by some minutes, Yang.

Yang: (Smiles and side-hugs Kestrel) Still my little brother.

Kestrel then pouted at that.

Ozpin: I am Ozpin, the headmaster of Beacon Huntsmen and Huntresses academy, nice to meet you. (Holds a hand out for a shake)

Rex: (Accepts handshake) Likewise, Headmaster.

Kestrel: Rex, what did you mean about "What is left of Global Risk"?

Rex: ...Max is dead, Spectre Core took over the body of a BlackList agent called "Torres" and fucking obliterated our forces during a raid against Blacklist.

Kestrel: ...Shit. Do we have support?

Rex who crossed his arms said.

Rex: As of now, we're completely alone out here. No way to get help. But we know that the Spectre Core somehow cloned Torres creating for the moment 5 and they are better but very cocky when fighting, so you might have a chance to go against them.
