RWBY V2 C12

## Plot

Jaune gets a call from Ruby in the middle of the night, but no one answers. The next day, Pyrrha tries to reassure him that everything's fine, but he says he just had a feeling. They see the smoke from the explosion, and hear sirens at the academy. Knowing what this must mean, Jaune tells his team that they're changing their mission, and they're heading into the city. He assures Ren that they'll make it to that village someday. Cinder, Emerald, and Mercury are caught off guard, since the invasion wasn't supposed to happen for another few days. Although vastly outnumbered, the girls fight the Grimm alone as best they can. Reinforcements arrive in the form of Team JNPR. Jaune defeats an Ursa all by himself. His training must be going well. The army from Atlas arrives. To maintain their cover, Emerald and Mercury even fight a few Grimm off. Zwei and Dr. Oobleck arrive in a Paladin. Team CFVY and Professor Port arrive. The song that plays when they utterly destroy the Grimm is called Caffeine. Get it? Because they're Team Coffee. Not very funny, but it is a great get your blood pumping song. Coco's weapon is a purse and a ***gatling gun.*** Too. Awesome. To. Comprehend. Dr. Oobleck and Professor Port clear the street of Grimm with a combo fire attack. Glynda comes in with the same grumpy expression on her face and easily fixes the breach. The day is saved. That was pretty cool, but it's only halfway through the episode. I know, credits plus end credits scene, but it's still kind of anti-climatic. Which is the only reason I consider episode 8 to be better than this. Torchwick is caught and put in prison. And I noticed that Emerald and Mercury handed him over. Could this be a plot point? The girls are proud of what they did, but they know they don't have all the answers, like who Cinder was, or why the bad guys did this. The Council of Vale has appointed General Ironwood as head of security for the Vytal Festival. They tell Ozpin that once the festival is over, his position as headmaster will be… reevaluated. Uh oh, that's never good. The Council has given Ironwood custody of Roman for as long as he sees fit. Ironwood asks him who's really behind all this. Roman says it's him, and *laughs*. Cinder, Emerald and Mercury wonder if the White Fang will still listen to them, since a lot of Faunus didn't make it out of the tunnels. Someone says that they won't listen to them. But they'll listen to him. Guess who's back? According to subtitles, (and the Black trailer), *it's **Adam.*** Oh crap, that son of a bitch survived? Don't tell me he's the leader of the White Fang, oh please don't. After a lot of credits, Yang goes to the statue in the courtyard. The mystery samurai woman is there. Yang asks her who she is. She takes off her mask, revealing a woman who looks a lot like her, with red eyes and the same hair style. According to credits, she's Raven Branwen. AKA *Yang's mother*. Oh. My. Gosh. It *might* be a dream. The atmosphere was very dream like. So, lots of cliffhangers until volume 3. Which as of this initial writing is four days away. Oct. 24th **cannot** come soon enough. I've heard the theme song, and it's pretty good, though different than the first two. It's about their darkest hour, and **it. Is. Dark.** I've already covered my thoughts on the episode, and even some on volume 3. I love Team CFVY. Coco and Velvet rule! I still have a bad feeling about Ironwood.
