"Weiss, Blake, and Yang vs. Pawns" is a battle that takes place in "Rude, Red, and Royal" of Volume 9 between Weiss, Blake, and Yang and the Pawns.
Preceding Events[]
The Prince is complaining about the fact that he is losing. He asks what creatures Ruby and her group are one more time; just to make sure he heard her correctly. Ruby explains what species everyone in her group is, and this angers the Prince; causing him to think they cheated.
The Prince commands the Pawns to start attacking, and they obey the Prince's command. The Pawns start sprinting at Weiss, Blake and Yang. Weiss, Blake, and Yang get ready for the fight.
The Fight[]
The fights starts with Blake using Gambol Shroud to swing Yang in a circular motion. This knocks down all the pawns in the vicinity of Yang. Weiss quickly stabs the three pawns that weren't in Yang's vicinity. Some Pawn then all try to stab Weiss, and she dodges it by hopping in the air. She uses Myrtenaster to hang on their swords, and then creates a glyph to levitate in the air for a few seconds. She then quickly aims herself at one of the Pawns. Weiss starts to use her weapon to ambush each of the nearby Pawns. All of their swords fall; giving her enough time to hop on top of one the swords. The sword hits the incoming Pawns.
The group attacks more Pawns, using their weapons and strength to defeat them. Yang shoots out Grenades from Ember Celica on to the Pawn, and knocks the Pawn into some other Pawns. Blake uses her skills to defeat some more Pawns. She tries to help Yang, but is knocked back by a Pawn. Ruby tells the Prince that her friends will be hurt, but the Prince claims that he doesn't care since it's his birthday. Three Pawns fly out of one of the drawers, allowing them to arrive back to the battlefield. A Pawn tries to impale Blake with their sword, but she dodges this attack and goes to higher ground. She uses Gambol Shroud on some Pawns, and is almost attacked by some flying on a carpet. Yang finishes attacking some Pawns; just as she is buried by many of them.
Blake hops up to the top of the Chess Board. Weiss is also shown to be on the opposite side from Blake. Blake shoots some of the Pawns, but uses up all of her ammo. Ruby looks around at the destruction happening before her, and puts her hands on her head. The Prince tries to convince her to give up, but he fails. Ruby commands her group to destroy the Pawns, and they listen. Weiss creates Glyphs, and Blake uses these to move to the opposite side. Weiss hops on a Glyph, and uses it to summon Nevermore wings. She also shoots feathers at the Pawns. Yang activates her Semblance and uses her weapon to launch herself into the air. Weiss and Blake both use Gambol Shroud as a slingshot for Yang. Weiss summons Yang an Arma Gigas sword, and she uses this to create a shockwave. This shockwave defeats all of the Pawns.
Trivia[]
- The slingshot tactic Weiss and Blake do with Yang is very similar to the move Team RWBY did during their fight with the Nevermore in "Players and Pieces".
- In shots without Ruby in them, Weiss, Blake, and Yang's character models were actually at their regular scale.[1]
