A short I wrote for a friend before their AU idea went off in another direction:
RWBY Raiders
The Dust planes were a vast and arid badland, dotted with cacti, shrubs and jagged Dust crystals with a myriad of environmental effects from pulsing veins of lava to howling winds and crackling lightning when agitated. Across these red and dust planes trotted a lone horse and atop its back were two riders, a dark haired Faunus and blonde human in touch khaki clothes.
Yang had been working with Blake for along time, they'd been partners, friends and well, lovers through no shortage of thick and thin trials and tribulations, so Yang like to think she had a good read on the Faunus. Wrapping her arms around Blake's waste she squeezed and nuzzled into her neck, "Starling, you're gonna draw Grimm to us with all this tension." She felt Blake relax minutely in her arms, but not enough as Blake began to speak and as ever Yang was enraptured.
"I know she's your family Yang, but I can't help but think we're talking into a trap. Even if your sisters on the level, she might be being used."
Yang nodded, "True, that could be the case, but if that is how it is, then we need to get her outta there before tings turn sour. So either way we'd be heading East no?"
"Heading East? Yes," Blake nodded, her black hat tipping, "But going to a meeting with the Schnee-Devil heiress? No."
Yang nuzzled Blake's neck, "You got contacts and wits I don't for this kind of thing, so long as we show up early and you find the right people, we can be ready for anything."
Yang felt Blake relax just a little further, tilting her head back to kiss Yang on the cheek, "True, that is our plan, we just gotta hope they don't have a surprise waiting for us."
"Planning a plan around our plan that was their plan? Seems like its turtles all the way down, but if worst comes to worst..."
"We stick together," Blake said firmly, snaking a hand behind her to teasingly run claws through her golden locks and pulling her into a kiss.
Notes: Some stuff came up, but I hope this is a nice start, I figure there's a huge shipment of wealth via the Schnees coming, Weiss will be on it and she wants out of the Schnee family so is collaborating with robbers after having initially hired Ruby just to extract her from the manor, now she wants to take buttloads of money with her and will split it with the team, if all goes according to plan.
