Voice Actor: Barbara Dunkelman

Special Attacks:

-Ember Shot: Yang fires a scattershot from her Ember Celica. Effective at close-range, but loses effectiveness the further it goes. Can be done up to three times if combo'd right.

-Blaze-Maker: Yang pulls back a fist and throws it, hard, at the opponent. Can chain into Running Start and the heavy variant can stun foes if they don't block.

-Running Start: Yang sprints at the opponent to cross distance, and can follow up with three attacks...

*Slide-Burn: a flaming slide-kick that can trip up opponents and get Yang behind them

*Tremor: an arching overhand punch that creates a small shockwave on impact with the ground

*Flame Pillar: Two consecutive, fiery uppercuts, the second being able to send opponents into the air

-Yellow Rocket: Yang fires a shot behind her to propel herself forward, following up with one of three attacks via precise button presses.

LIGHT: A sharp uppercut that can send the opponent a short distance into the air

MEDI: An elbow-drive that can push the opponent back on impact

HEAVY: A short-range, forward-aimed burst that sends her backward

-Erupt: Yang jumps in the air with a fire-laced uppercut. With a successful impact and precise button-timing, she can spike the opponent down and bounce them off the ground.

Throws

FORWARD: Yang grabs the opponent by the shoulder, then punches them twice in the face, pauses and shakes feeling back into her hand, then socks them to the ground with a final hit.

BACKWARD: Yang hauls the opponent up in a small arc, then uses Ember Celica to blast them from point-blank, sending them flying.

Super Moves:

-Explosive Ammo: Yang rushes forward with two haymakers to the opponent's face, then uppercuts the opponent into the air and fires at them with exploding shells from her Ember Celica. Her shells will miss if the opponent blocks.

-I Burn!: Yang activates her Semblance, her eyes turning red and her hair glowing with golden fire. In this state, she receives a significant boost in strength depending on how much damage she has taken and her attacks will inflict fire damage on each successful hit (the strength doesn't increase with each hit, but rather locks onto how much damage she took upon its activation). Wears off after a few seconds.

-Gold Fire: Yang slams her knuckles together, then throws a sucker punch. If she hits, she will punch the opponent repeatedly, changing position and the angles of her hits frequently. She will then sweep the ground, tripping the opponent, and grab them by the foot before spinning them around and hauling them into the air where she fires a single shell that explodes like a bomb before discarding the opponent on the ground. The explosion will do more damage and be a bright-golden color if "I Burn!" is in effect.

FATALITIES:

-Shell Shock: Yang punches the opponent in the gut and fires a point-blank shot from Ember Celica, blasting a hole in their midsection. She then grabs them by the shoulder with one hand and punches them in the face, releasing a shot just after the impact and blasting their head into pieces.

-Skeet Spike: Yang grabs the opponent and hefts them up into the air before tossing them into the air. She fires a few shots at them in midair, taking chunks off them, then springs high into the air and uppercuts them in the midsection, a final blast from Ember Celica bifurcating them completely.

Intro: Yang flips back her golden hair, then holds up her fists as Ember Celica unfolds before taking a battle ready pose.

Outro: Yang whips out a pair of sunglasses, slips them on her face, then pumps a fist and grins at the camera.

Outro Quotes: "Hehehehe. Nailed it!"

"I always finish my fights with a 'Yang'!"

Theme Song: "I Burn" by Jeff Williams, Casey Lee Williams, and Lamar Hall

_________________________________________________________________________________________

Prologue: All was well during a small mission for Team RWBY and a nearby Grim was on the verge of collapse thanks to their teamwork. Yet when Yang Xiao Long delivered the final blow, a portal popped into existence and consumed her. Before Yang could pride herself in her work, she realized that she was in an alien world. Trying not to panic at what might have happened to Ruby and the others, she set herself down the road to answers once again--the answer to finding her way home.

Rival Cutscene:

(Yang wanders through what looks like a city, a series of skeletal skyscrapers not far off in the distance. She notices an especially big one and gets a flashback to a mission with Oobleck.)

Yang: Whoa. Hate to see who, or what, could've done this. (shakes head) Can't let this get to me. Gotta find my way home.

(Yang walks onward, but after a while, she recognizes one particular building and groans.)

Yang: Walking straight and walking in circles at the same time--what a paradox. Guess I better find some place and rest up. Whatever fight's next, I don't want 'em to catch me tired.

(Yang looks around for a good rest-stop and finds one in the form of a church of sorts. She shrugs.)

Yang: Huh. Maybe there is a god...

(Yang heads to the church, then notices that the door is ajar. Out of curiosity, she peers inside and sees a familiar figure. Initially ready to fight, she tilts her head when she realizes that Tifa doesn't seem to be looking for a fight.)

Yang: Maybe...(straightens up and walks through the door) Yo!

(Tifa whirls around in surprise, recognizes Yang, then raises her fists.)

Tifa: YOU!

(Yang holds up her hands in a reassuring fashion.)

Yang: Whoa-whoa-whoa, hold on a sec. I don't wanna fight. I just wanna talk.

(Tifa lowers her fists slightly, but keeps a brow raised.)

Tifa: Really?

Yang: Yes, REALLY. If I wanted, I could've hit you when your back was turned. Trust me, okay?

(Tifa gives it a thought, then lowers her guard, though she still has a pretty suspicious look. Yang looks around the church, then back at Tifa.)

Yang: What are you doing here of all places?

Tifa: I'm looking for someone. We came here together, but got separated.

Yang: Okay. What brought you here, though?

Tifa: I thought he might be here, seeing as this place meant a lot to him.

Yang: You really care about this guy, don't you?

Tifa: Yeah. We were childhood friends.

Yang: Wow...(gets mischievous glint in her eye) Think you could be more than that?

Tifa: (taken aback) Wha-?!

Yang: Ooooh! Are you blushing, Teef?

Tifa: I...I...

Yang: Knew it. Now, c'mon! Come clean! You like him, don'tcha?

Tifa: Sh-shut up!

Yang: Not 'til you give a straight answer.

Tifa: Or until I beat you to a pulp.

Yang: Sure. You win, I forget all this. I win, you come clean about how you love 'im.

Tifa: Fine. (slips on gloves)

Yang: The gloves are ON! Now I know I'm in for a fun time. (activates Ember Celica)

(Fade to black.)

Ending: Having fought, shot, and clobbered her way to the top, Yang Xiao Long found her way back to Beacon where Team RWBY was waiting for her, worried sick. To make up for her absence, Yang brought back a few souvenirs from the other world including cute and cuddly Pokemon, a new card game for them to try, and more than a few guns to tinker around with. For some, especially Ruby, it was as though birthdays had come early.
