RWBY V1 C8

## Plot

Ruby and Weiss were riding a Nevermore, and Ruby jumped off. Before she can fall, *Jaune* hits her after being flung by the Deathstalker. They both hit a tree instead. An Ursa shows up, and Nora is *riding it*. Ren asks her to never do that again. Nora takes a gold (white) rook. Then *Pyrrha* shows up with the Deathstalker right behind her. How are all these coincidences happening at once that are leading them all to each other?!? Yang finally loses it and tells everyone to chill before something else happens in two seconds. 1, 2, bam! Weiss is still on the Nevermore. And she's gonna fall. Jaune tries to catch her, but she lands on his back instead. They're barely reacting to all the craziness anymore. Yang sarcastically says, "Great! The gang's all here! Now we can die together!" Ruby charges right at the Deathstalker. She tries shooting it, but it doesn't work. She starts running back to the others, and Yang runs towards her. The Nevermore's feathers trap Ruby and prevent Yang from reaching her. The Deathstalker is about to kill her, and… Weiss saves her by freezing its tail. The two make up and decide to start over. The Nevermore starts circling back. Weiss reasons that there's no point in fighting, since the relics they came for are right in front of them. Their objective is to get back to the hill. And yet they end up fighting and then killing them later on, because the Creatures of Grimm are surprisingly persistent about fighting to their deaths. Jaune takes a gold (white) rook and Ruby takes a gold (white) knight. Nora distracts the Nevermore. Her hammer is also a grenade launcher. They run from the monsters, but the Nevermore takes out the bridge, separating them. Blake, Ren, and Pyrrha are stuck on one side fighting the Deathstalker. Nora gets there with her hammer. She also destroys the rest of the bridge so Jaune can make it over. Blake falls off, but uses her whip to circle back around and slash the Nevermore before joining Weiss, Yang, and Ruby. The girls hit the bird with all of their firepower, but it's really tough. Also, Blake's sword/whip triples as a gun. Everything's a gun in this show, isn't it? Ruby has a plan. Meanwhile, Jaune, Nora, Ren, and Pyrrha use teamwork to kill the Deathstalker. *They impale it with it's own stinger.* **That's too freaking awesome for words!** Ren takes a hit though. "Red Like Roses Part II" plays as the girls battle the Nevermore. The visuals are great! Yang and Blake tie her whip between two pillars. Ruby jumps on it, and Weiss uses her glyphs to launch her right at the big stupid raven. Ruby catches its neck with her scythe, *drags it up the mountain,* ***and decapitates it.*** Makes me feel grateful the show isn't *super* gory. As Jaune puts it, wow. That was one of the greatest things I've ever seen in my life. At the team ceremony, Professor Ozpin is announcing the teams. Russell Thrush, Dove Bronzewing, Sky Lark, and Cardin Winchester are Team CRDL, or Team Cardinal, led by Cardin. Jaune Arc, Lie Ren, Pyrrha Nikos, and Nora Valkyrie collected the gold (white) rook pieces. From now on, they're Team JNPR, or Team Juniper. They'll be led by Jaune. Blake Belladonna, Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, and Yang Xiao Long collected the gold (white) knight pieces. From this day forward, they will work together as Team RWBY, or Team Ruby. Led by none other than Ruby Rose herself! That night in a warehouse, Roman is planning something. **Best. Episode. Ever!**
