Well if yall are wondering why it took me so long well here's the reasons.
1. I was in a car crash between last chapter and this one.
2. I was a little shook due to the car crash.
3. I wanted to clear my mind after the crash.

Also just to let yall know I wont be getting to lemon chapters till I get thoroughly into the plot of the story. As an author I want yall to have a book that makes yall want to reread and not just some common smut book ya fap to once and then forget about.

Eraga POV

'Well shit.' Yall remember how my plan started off without a hitch. Turns out it didn't go the way I thought it would.

You see the factions. ... They continued to hunt me down since they think that having me on their side may change things. Tje only faction not hunting me is Atlas which is some help. Apparently I forgot that Raven's tribe is secluded so they really aren't too affected by the new faction which is why I'm currently hiding from her.

Also Salem decided to hunt me down herself. Some shitty ass luck I tell ya.

So onto plan B.

Use the Tobi alias so join Salem. I made an extra clay clone but I made the clone look exactly like me. The reason being is that I could use the clone to draw attention away from me, but now I have a better idea.

Salem POV

'That new group, I don't know who they are but they gave me exactly what I needed. Now that everyone is focused on them I can focus on capturing that boy. It's so unfortunate i had to send Cinder to make sure they don't ruin everything that I have set in place for Ozma's downfall.' I thought to myself as I moved into the location my grimm last saw the boy.

*BOOM*

"Stop it SENPAI it tickles. Ahahahahahahahahaha." I heard someone with a childlike voice laughing.

'What? Nobody else should be here. The fools are going to make my target leave. I must kill them.' I thought with an annoyed expression. I followed the noise and came to a ... rather surprising sight. The boy the the gourd tring despritly to crush a white cloaked male wearing a orange mask.

"Ahahahaha it tickles!"

" Shut up you annoying idiot I'm tring to kill you!" The boy I was looking for appeared angry. His sand seems to go through the masked male as if he was a ..
Ghost?

I stood frozen at the peculiar sight.

Then the boy noticed me, but before I can snap out of the shocked states he disappeared in a swirl of sand.

NO POV

'So the plan appears to he working. This mask is sooo useful. Time to test my acting skills. ' "OH. HI PRETTY LADY!!!" I yell at Salem

".. I guess I'll have to kill you now. You've already seen too much and I can't let you tell Ozma what you saw." I say as I sent a purple beam of magic at the fool.

The results didn't turn out how Salem expected it tho. Her attack went straight through the man.

"OH? Pretty lady wants to play fight with Tobi? YAY PLAG FIGHTING IS SOOO FUN. *pulls a small twig from tree* ON GUARD." Eraga says while masquerading as Tobi.

This caught Salem off guard. This man .... child? is using a twinge to fight her. To say this was the weirdest thing she saw would be an understatement.

She then started to continually launch blasts of magic at the man who in returned clumsily dodged the beams. It didn't take long for Salem to realize something. What appeared to be clumsy dodging was actually a very consistent and well developed fighting style. If it wasn't for her thousands of years of experience she would have missed the grace and skill this man used to dodge her attack. Unfortunately for Salem the surprises didn't end there.

'Guess it's time to give her a show.' "OHOH NOW ITS TOBI'S TURN! GET READY PRETTY LADY CAUSE TOBI IS GONNA WIIIINNNNN!" Eraga yelled ina childlike demeanor as he did hand signs for the fireball jutsu.

Salem's eyes widened at the sign of another using that strage power. Unfortunately for her she didn't take the time to dodge the attack and was covered in flames.

'I know that didn't kill her.' Eraga thought before the smoke cleared revealing an uninjured Salem surrounded by a purple bubble. "NICE ONE PRETTY LADY!!"

" You have potential... why don't you join me?" Salem asked.

"UH I DON'T KNOW! MOMMA ALWAYS SAID NOT TO TRUST STRANGERS BUUUUUUUUUUT PRETTY LADY LOOKS TRUST WORTHY SOOOO YEA!" Eraga purposely said outloud nearly a yell. 'This will be a lot more fun han I originally thought it would be. Hehehe'

[Tobi's Mask: this mask gives you all of Tobi's jutsu and abilities as long as the user wears this mask. The mask also prevents the user form using any jutsu and abilities that Tobi doesn't have an affinity for.]

Narrator POV

Unknown to Salem the master manipulator she thinks she is is actually being manipulated by the target she was originally after.

Meanwhile.

Ozpin POV

"Ozpin, I need your help. If you and your school were to help us we can show Remnant that this terrorist group calling themselves the Hidden Blade are nothing more than scum that deserve to be kocked up."

" I'm afraid the damage has already been done." I reply solemnly to my old friend.

" Ozpin you can't be serious! We can't lie down in defeat against these terrorists! What if they are working for her."

"Good thing it isn't a product of her isn't it?"

" What do you mean? You can't seriously be dismissing the probability of her being in on this."

" If it was her then she would have targeted me first before targeting Atlas. As a matter of fact the amount of applicants for Beacon has skyrocketed due to the events. It appears people want to be huntsman in order to stop people like Jacques. Compared to last year we have more than quadruple the amount of students entering the first year. Salem can't be behind this cause she wouldn't want to strengthen me. Like this group did." I reply.

" It doesn't matter. What they have done has endangered all of Remnant. Without my military grimm attacks have now skyrocketed on small towns. Soon they will be attack our cities. What will stop them then Ozpin? Your students... ha you can't seriously believe more students will help stop an invasion of grimm." Ironwood snaps

"I hope they never have to my friend."
