Team RWBY's going after the White Fang! I can't imagine why, as Weiss makes an excellent point as to why it's a dumb idea, but Blake also has a point: they're making their move whether team RWBY is ready or not, and making their move against them sooner rather than later could make a lot of difference. Although there are others working on that case, as team RWBY knows. I don't know how they think they'll make a difference, but Blake seems to be put at ease by knowing that they're going to do something. Honestly, I expect her to be a very important character in volume 2, aside from just being one of the four heroines. She knows the White Fang more than any of the 'good guys' and her and knowledge could really help. Also, I'm curious how she'll react to Ironwood; they both seem to have similar opinions on the coming storm.

Props to her, by the way, for actually caring about what's going on. However, she seems to be quite paranoid, especially in her unwillingness to trust Ozpin with her secret (although I think he already knows) and not taking off her bow. She makes good points for not doing so, as we've already seen what happens to faunus at Beacon, courtesy of team CRDL. But I can really see where her realism and practicality could end up hurting her in the long run; she won't even trust Ozpin, and needed encouragement from Weiss (I love her for straight up calling out Blake out on her crap. She's not afraid of pissing people off; she'll give them a piece of her mind and she'll make them listen!) to open up to her team, even after promising that she would talk to them more. Volume 2 is giving us insight into why Blake acts the way she does and what her past was like, and it's making me very happy!
