A/N: Welcome to When The Brothers Cry, the Higurashi crossover! Yes, before anybody asked, I am planning to make a crossover with my RWBY characters, and any anime I've watched that has an archive on this site. Problem is, a couple of anime I like don't have one...yet. (Looking at you, Renai Boukun and Eromanga Sensei!) Anyways, enjoy the first of 3 chapters of When The Brothers Cry!

When The Brothers Cry

Chapter 1- The Brothers Arrive

Hinamizawa School, 1983

"How do I always lose?" Keiichi asked, before Rika smiled, and patted his head. "You're just not as lucky, Maebara. You'll win eventually. ~Nipaa!~" the young Furude said, before Keiichi smiled. "Thanks, Rika." He said, patting the small girl's head, before their classroom door slid open, and their teacher, Chie Rumiko, walked in. "Alright, class!" she called, causing the entire class to get into their seats. "Good morning, everyone!" Miss Rumiko said, before the class replied, "Good morning, Miss Rumiko!" "Now, before we start, I am happy to announce, that we have a pair of brothers joining our class. They are a pair of transfer students from Scotland." Rumiko said, before the class gasped. "A pair of brothers? So, where are they?" Mion Sonozaki asked, before Chie scowled. "They called in today, and said they'd be late arriving to school." She said, before Rika heard a slight rumble. Raising a hand, she said, "Miss Rumiko, I just heard a noise from outside. It sounded like a motorbike." Nodding, Chie said, "That'll be them. I hope." She said, before leaving the room. As the door slid shut, Satoko Hōjō turned to her friend. "Did you really hear something, Rika?" she asked, before Rika nodded. Suddenly, the rumbling noise got closer. "Okay, now that, I heard." Rena Ryuugu said, before she rushed to the windows, looking at the car park, immediately being followed by the rest of the class. Outside, they saw two motorcycles pull up, their riders wearing helmets.

Outside…

The taller rider raised their hands to their head, and pulled their helmet off, revealing a boy who looked to his companion as they took their own helmet off. "You think this is the place, Adam?" the first boy asked, before the second looked round. "Let's see, running track, supply sheds, cars in the car park, educational look of the building, kids looking at us from the windows, and last but not least, that sign behind us that says 'Hinamizawa School'. I'm going to say yes, this is the place, Jamie." He said sarcastically, before he turned off his bike's engine. "Fuck you, bro." Jamie said, turning off his own bike, before standing up. "Love you too, big brother." Adam said, before he saw Chie and the school principal, Kaieda, coming out of the building. "Look alive." He said, slapping Jamie on the shoulder, and nodding towards the two adults, causing his brother to look round, as the two adults reached them.

"I presume you two are the Robertson brothers?" Chie asked, before the two nodded. "He's Adam." Jamie said, pointing to his brother, before Adam mirrored him, nodding towards him, saying, "He's Jamie." Nodding, Chie extended a hand. "Chie Rumiko. The man beside me is Principal Kaieda. Pleasure to meet you." She said, shaking the brother's hands. "Pleasure's all ours." Adam said, before he saw the principal looking at their bikes. "Word of advice, if you want us to get along, don't touch the bikes." Jamie said, before the principal nodded. "Very well. Just admiring the bodywork." He said, before Chie gestured towards the school. "We should get you two introduced to the class." She said, before the brothers nodded. "Lead on." Jamie said, gesturing for the adults to take the lead. After they reached the classroom door, Chie turned to the brothers. "Can you two wait here for a second?" she asked, before the brothers nodded. "Sure." Adam said, before Rumiko entered the classroom. After a few seconds, her voice said, "You can come in now!" Entering the room, the brothers stood at the front of the classroom, and waited as Rumiko introduced them. Bowing, they said, "Pleasure to meet you all. Hope we can all become good friends!", before they straightened up. "Well, you two can take the seats over there." Chie said, pointing to two empty tables next to the window. Nodding, the brothers went and sat down, placing their bags underneath the table.

A couple of lessons later…

A couple of lessons passed after the brothers joined the class, and Chie had started the class in their Maths lesson, but she turned to Adam and Jamie, and said, "You two have already done this work before, so you can take a break for this lesson." Nodding, Adam pulled out a book from his bag, and started to read, noting his brother had pulled out a piece of paper and was scribbling away. As Adam read through his book, he was tapped on the shoulder. Lowering the book, he turned to see Rika standing next to him, holding a bunch of paper. "Hello, little one. Who might you be?" he asked, before the girl smiled. "My name's Rika Furude. Can you help me with this?" she asked, making Adam raise an eyebrow, before he looked to Chie, who was helping another group of students, then to his brother, who was hiding a smirk, then finally back to Rika, who was smiling. "~Nipaa!~" she said, smiling, causing Adam to sigh, before he relented and took the paper from her. Looking over the questions on the paper, he looked to Rika. "Which ones are you having trouble with?" he asked, before Rika pointed out the question she needed help with. "Okay, Rika. Take a seat." He said, gesturing to the seat next to him. Nodding, Rika plopped herself on the seat next to him, and shuffled a bit closer to see the paper. "Alright, so, basically, what you do is take this number, times it by this, carry the one, and there you go." He said, double underlining the answer. "Wow, thank you, Adam!" Rika said, taking the paper and walking back to her desk, sitting down beside Satoko, but she shot a smile over to Adam, who returned the gesture, before looking back to Jamie.

"Well, Adam, seems you've got an admirer." The older Robertson said, before Adam kicked him under the table. "Eat shit, Jamie." He said, as Jamie rubbed his aching leg. "Oh, c'mon, I was just making an observation!" Jamie said, before Adam smirked. "No, you were insinuating something impossible. How about you? I see you ogling that girl over there with the green hair." He said, before shooting a glance over to the two green-haired girls sitting at the back of the room. "I have no idea what you're on about." Jamie said, looking back down to his work. Smiling, Adam went to pick up his book again, but he felt something bounce off his head, and land on the table in front of him. Looking round, Adam saw Mion looking at him, before nodding to the paper ball she had just thrown at him. Sighing, Adam unfurled the paper, and read the message within…

To the Robertson brothers…

You may just be newcomers to our class, but you two strike me as potential Club material. Can you please hang back after school finishes?

Mion Sonozaki, AKA the green-haired girl in the full uniform.

P.S. The other green-haired girl, the one in uniform, minus the vest, is my sister Shion. Tell that to your brother, Adam, as I noticed the stares he was giving her.

Smirking, Adam looked back up at Mion, before nodding. After smiling and returning the nod, Mion returned to her work. "What's going on, Adam?" Jamie asked, before Adam passed him the note. "Read it." He said, before Jamie took a while longer than Adam did to read the note. When he reached the end, his eyes widened. "Fair enough." He said, before lowering the note. Looking to Adam, he shrugged. "We doing it?" he asked, before Adam smiled. "What do you think?" the younger brother asked, before they heard a bell ring. "Lunchtime!" Miss Rumiko said, leaving the room, before the class started to group up to eat their lunch, with Adam and Jamie sitting off to the side by themselves.

"So, little brother, what class we got next?" Jamie asked, as he devoured a chicken ball. "For fuck's sake." Adam said, as he swallowed his own piece of chicken. "It's PE. You really need to learn these things, Jamie. I'm getting tired of acting like the older brother to my older brother." He continued, before Jamie scowled. "Yeah, I try to. But you know how bad I am at remembering these kinds of things." Jamie said, before Adam groaned. "Lazy bastard." He said, finishing up his lunch. Closing his bento box, he stuffed it back into his bag. "Alright, I'm going outside. See you next class." He said, fist bumping Jamie, before exiting the room. Little did he know, he was being watched by a blue-haired 10-year old girl.

Outside, Adam perched himself on a railing, and looked out over the grounds. As he got lost in his thoughts, he felt a presence come up behind him. "Not a lot of people can say they've managed to sneak up on me." He said, causing the voice behind him to giggle. "Why am I not surprised?" Rika's voice asked, as the blue-haired girl pushed herself up onto the railing next to him. "What can I do for you, Rika?" Adam asked, before the girl smiled. "I want to get to know you better." She said, before Adam smirked. "Careful who you say that to, Rika. People could get the wrong idea." He said, causing the girl to smile. "~Nipaa!~" She said, before Adam chuckled. "You're too cute for your own good, Rika." He said, before reaching up and patting the girl on the head slightly. As he lifted his hand off her head, Rika smiled. "I get that a lot." She said, before Adam smiled. "I'll take your word for it." He said, before he heard a bell ring. "Time for PE." He said, pushing himself off the railing, before turning to Rika. "M'lady." He said, offering his hand. "My, such a gentleman." She said, taking the hand, and allowing Adam to help her down. After her feet touched the ground, Adam released her hand. "Right, let's get going." He said, before Rika nodded, and they both walked back into the school.

After getting changed for PE, Adam and his brother met up with the rest of the class, where Chie was standing in front of them. "Alright, for today's class, dodgeball!" she said, before the class cheered. Leaning over to his brother, Adam said, "Looks like this sport's popular." Smiling, Jamie replied, "Just like back home.", before Miss Rumiko said, "We'll split into two teams. Can I have two team captains, please?" she asked, before Adam saw Mion and Shion look to each other and nod, before they raised their hands. "Very well. Mion and Shion, come up here." Chie said, before the sisters nodded, and stepped up beside her. "Okay, we'll alternate choices. Mion, you go first." Chie said, before Mion nodded. "I'll take Adam." She said, before Adam nodded, and walked over. "This is gonna be fun." He said, cracking his neck. Next, it was Shion's turn. "Jamie." She said, before the older brother nodded, and joined her. After a few minutes, the two teams were completed, with Mion's team having Rika and Keiichi, and Shion taking Satoko and Rena, along with the young children of the class being split between the two teams. As the two teams went to get ready for the game to start, Adam walked over to his brother. "Get ready to have your ass handed to you, brother." He said, before Jamie smirked. "Not gonna happen, bro." he said, before Adam chuckled & fist bumped him, before heading back over to his team. "Ready?" Mion asked, before Adam scoffed. "I was born ready." He said, before Miss Chie blew her whistle, and the game started…

Eventually, the game came down to Shion and Jamie on one side, and Adam, Mion and Rika on the other. As the two teams regained their breath, Adam saw Jamie whisper something to Shion. "Son of a bitch!" he said to himself, before he looked to Mion, who was holding a ball. "Yo, Mion!" he called, gesturing for her to pass him the ball. Nodding, she passed him the ball. Looking back to his opponents, Adam saw them both aiming for him. "Knew it." He thought to himself, bracing himself, before Jamie and Shion shot their balls towards him. Smiling, Adam flipped through the space in between the balls, to the shock of the whole class, before launching his own ball straight at Jamie, who couldn't react fast enough to stop the ball from colliding straight into his face, sending him flying backwards. "Out!" Miss Rumiko said, as Jamie got to his feet, before Adam smirked, catching the ball, which had bounced back from hitting Jamie, and passing it to Mion, as he saw Rika pick up another ball. Picking up one of his own, Adam looked to his partners, and nodded. "Game over, Shion!" Mion said to her sister, before the three threw their balls at her, causing her to freeze in shock, before all three connected with her torso. "Out! Mion's team wins!" Miss Rumiko said, before the whole team specified cheered. "Okay, get back inside, get changed, and wait for the final bell to ring." Chie said, before the class nodded, and went to get changed.

After getting changed, the class returned to their homeroom, and waited for the final bell to ring, all the while chatting about the dodgeball game. Due to his spectacular dodge at the tail end, Adam had been besieged with grace, causing him to smile, and humbly wave the questions off. After the brothers were left alone, Adam turned to Jamie, who was glaring at him. "What's got your nuts in a vice, bro?" he asked, before Jamie scoffed. "Nothing." He said, massaging his forehead, which had a bright red spot on it. Smirking, Adam said, "You should have known I was going to do that.", before Jamie nodded. "I did, but it didn't make it any less sare." He said, before the two heard the final bell ring. As the class filed out of the room, the brothers stayed behind, as Mion had asked them to.

After the kids had left the room, Mion walked over to the brothers. "Do you two have any plans after school?" she asked, before the boys shook their head. "No, we don't. Why do you ask?" Jamie asked, before Mion jerked her head over to the back of the room, where Shion, Rika, Satoko, Rena and Keiichi were sitting. "We hold an after-school club, if you're interested in joining." She said, before the brother looked to each other. "What exactly does this club of yours do?" Adam asked, looking back at Mion, who smiled. "We test one's competitive spirit in feats of strength, strategy and intelligence!" she said, before Jamie looked to Adam, with an eyebrow raised. "You get any of that?" he asked, before Adam chuckled. "To be blunt, they play games." He said, before Jamie nodded. "What do you think, brother?" Adam asked, before his brother smiled. "I think you already know my answer, little brother." Jamie said, before Adam smiled and looked back at Mion. "Alright, we're in." he said, before Mion grinned. "Alright, come up and join us for your entrance exam." She said, before walking back over to her friends. Nodding to each other, the brothers walked up to them.

"So, what you playing today, you lot?" Adam asked, as he and his brother pulled chairs over, and sat down. Holding up a pack of cards, Mion asked, "You ever play Switch?", before the brothers looked to each other and smiled. "Please. We own this game." Jamie said, before Mion flashed an evil grin at him. "We'll see about that." She said, before she dealt the cards out. After Adam and Jamie got their hands, they saw that the cards were, for lack of a better term, scuffed to shit. "Let me guess, you can tell what cards we're holding." Jamie said, before Shion grinned at him, and told him the exact cards they had. "Alright, we're playing that way, huh?" he asked, before he looked to Adam. "Losers have to take part in a punishment game. You still sure you two want to do this?" Satoko asked, before the brothers grinned. "Let's do this." Jamie said, before Mion put down a card. "Game on!" she said, before the whole Club got into the competitive spirit, and got involved in the hectic game…

Eventually, after much fuckery…

"I'm out!" Adam said, placing down his last card before anyone else, closely being followed by Jamie. "Well, I'll be damned. You two are good." Mion said, as she put down her last cards. "Told you." Adam said, as he and his brother leant back and put their legs on the table. "Alright, so the brothers are safe from the punishment game, as are Mion and I." Shion said, placing down her card. Soon after, the other girls, in the order of Rika, Satoko and Rena, said, "Out!" and threw their cards down, leaving Keiichi as the only one holding a card. "I'm…out." He sighed, putting his last card down, before the rest of the club burst into laughter. "Unlucky, Keiichi!" Mion said, before the boy sighed. "I lost, even to the two newest members." Keiichi said, before Adam leaned over and patted him on the back. "Tough luck mate. But for the future, remember. Never take on a Scotsman in a card game. You will lose." He said, before he looked at his watch. "Shit." He said quietly, before he nodded to Jamie, who got up and grabbed both their bags. "We need to go." Adam said, taking his bag from Jamie, before grabbing his helmet. "Alright. We'll see you tomorrow." Mion said, before Adam nodded. "You meet after school every day?" he asked, before the club nodded. "Alright, we'll see you tomorrow." Jamie said, grabbing his own helmet. "Let's go, Adam, we don't wanna be late." He said, before Adam said, "Yeah, yeah, I hear you." And followed him out of the school.

Outside, the brothers got onto their bikes, and as they got ready to drive off, they saw the Club had followed them outside. Smiling, Adam asked, "Anything we missed?", before Mion tossed something to him and Jamie. Catching them in their fists, the brothers opened them up to reveal small gold pins. "Welcome to the Games Club." Mion said, before the brothers smiled and pinned them to their uniforms. "Alright, we'll see you around." Adam said, before he and Jamie put on their helmets, and sat on their bikes. Before he pulled his visor down, Adam saw Rika looking at him. Winking at her, he pushed his visor down, then nodded to his brother. Starting their throttles, the two skidded out of the car park, and took off down the road.

After riding for a while, the brothers parked their bikes in their garage, next to their cars, a black Dodge Charger for Adam and a blue Nissan Skyline for Jamie, before they entered the house belonging to the both of them. After Adam had thrown his bag onto the couch, he planted himself onto it, sighing when he felt the couch sag beneath him. "And you call me lazy." Jamie said, before Adam flipped him off. "Fuck. You." The younger brother said, before getting up, and walking over to the fridge. "You want a glass?" he asked, holding up a bottle of soda. "Yeah, sure." Jamie said, sitting down on the couch, as Adam poured two glasses, then carried them over to the couch, passing one to Jamie. "So, what do you think of this town?" Jamie asked, after taking a drink. "Meh, it's not too bad. Bit quiet, though." Adam said, taking a drink of his own, before Jamie nodded. "Seems like it could be a good place to live, if we can stay out of trouble." Adam continued, before Jamie looked to him. "What was that meant to imply?" he demanded, before Adam raised an eyebrow. "If I remember correctly, you did get caught taking part in a street race." He said, before Jamie scoffed. "I missed one drift, and I flipped my car." He said, before Adam chuckled. "And to save you going to prison, Mum saw fit to send you here, and asked me to keep an eye on you." He said, making Jamie growl. "Don't remind me." He said, before Adam leaned over and smacked him on the back of the head. "You deserved that. Never got the chance back in Scotland." He said, as his brother rubbed the back of his neck. "Wanker." Jamie said, making Adam smirk.

"Well, in all honesty, I can say this town may have one redeeming factor." Adam said, smiling when Jamie looked to him in confusion. "Which is?" he was asked, before he smiled. "A girl that might be a perfect fit for you." He said, before Jamie scowled. "I have no idea what you're on about." He said, before Adam chuckled. "Really? Seems you couldn't tear your eyes away from Shion." He said, before Jamie blushed and looked away from him. "What? I wasn't checking her out." He said, before Adam nodded. "Yeah, you were." He said, emptying his glass, before he grabbed his bag and went to enter his room. "What about you? I saw the way you were looking at Rika." Jamie called out, before he was hit in the face with Adam's bag, which he had launched at him. "There's nae need to chuck a bag at me!" Jamie said, as Adam stormed over and collected his bag. "Aye there is, when you ignore the fact that Rika is about 10, and I'm 17, you wankstain!" Adam said, before Jamie smiled. "Yeah, that could be a problem." He said, making Adam growl, before he kicked him. "Asshat." He said, as Jamie massaged his leg, before Adam walked into his room and slammed the door shut behind him.

"He's such a prick." Adam thought to himself, tossing his bag to the side, before flopping down onto his bed. "It's just a shame that he was right. I was…admiring Rika, but that's only because she was cute. Sue me, she's cute, I'd be a fool to deny that. But she's a lot younger than me, and I'm certainly not willing to go to prison for being…that." He continued to think, before he heard his brother enter his room next door. Picking up a ball from his bedside table, he threw it at the wall, smiling when he heard Jamie yell, "ARSEHOLE!" "TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE, FUCKER!" he yelled back, before he leant back on his bed, soon after drifting off to sleep.

The Next Day…

"What we taking today, bro? Bikes or cars?" Jamie asked, before Adam shrugged. "You do what you want, but I'm taking my bike." He said, getting on the back of his motorcycle. "Guess I'll see you there, then." Jamie said, before getting onto his own bike. "We'll see." Adam said, fastening his helmet. "I'll tell Shion you said hi." He said, before slamming his visor down and speeding out the garage. "Oh hell no!" Jamie yelled after putting his helmet on, before starting his engine and driving after his brother.

After racing through the streets, making sure to avoid hitting civilians, the brothers pulled into the school car park, Adam parking first, before Jamie pulled up next. Quickly pulling his helmet off, Adam turned his engine off, and ran into the school. Cutting his engine, Jamie got off his bike and ran after him. After he passed the threshold of the door, he saw Adam enter the classroom. Running through the door, he saw him go to open his mouth to talk to Shion, but he ran forwards and tackled him to the floor. "Alright, I get the point." Adam said, before Jamie straightened up and helped him stand. "Wankstain." Jamie said, before he missed Adam kicking him in the shin, sending him to the floor. "That's for tackling me." Adam said, before heading to his seat. After sitting down, he saw Shion go over to Jamie, before Rika walked over to him.

"Hello, Adam. You and Jamie seem to be in a bit of an intense mood today. Is everything okay?" Rika asked, before Adam smiled. "Yeah, Rika, everything's fine. My brother's just being an idiot. But thanks for being concerned." He said, patting the girl on the head. "~Nippa!~" the girl said, before Adam smiled. "You really are a cute one, Rika." He said, before the girl smiled. "Thank you, Adam!" she said, hugging him suddenly, before she released him and walked over to the other side of the classroom, taking her seat. Looking round the room, Adam noticed Satoko was standing at the door. Having heard about Satoko's usual 'prankster' tendencies, Adam smirked, as he walked over to beside the girl. "Busy there, Satoko?" he asked, making the girl jump. As he got a clear view of the door handle, he saw that she had taped a number of thumbtacks to the door handle. "That's pretty evil, even by your standards, Satoko." He said, before the girl smiled an evil grin. "I'm trying to get Maebara." She said, before Adam chuckled and rolled his eyes. "And I'm assuming you've got more of these pranks set up?" He asked, before the girl turned to him. "I would appreciate it if you'd call them what they are. They're not 'pranks', they are 'traps'." She declared, before Adam smiled, and held up his hands. "Apologies. Well, let me rephrase the question: Do you have more of these traps set up?" he asked, before the so-called "Trap-Master" nodded. "Need a hand?" he asked, before the girl nodded. "Alright then, show me what you need." He said, before the girl pulled a piece of paper from her pocket and passed it to him. Reading it over for a second, he grinned. "Consider it done." He stated, before disappearing in a blur.

After a few minutes, the rest of Satoko's traps were set up, and hidden from the rest of the class, with the trigger for one trap lying at the bottom of Adam's chair leg. Sitting down, Adam saw his brother looking at him with an eyebrow raised. "Let's just say, there's going to be fireworks when Keiichi gets here." He said, causing Jamie to smile. "You really are an evil one, Adam." He said quietly, making the younger Robertson smirk. "Yep." Adam retorted, winking at his brother. "Now, just wait for a minute." He ordered, causing his brother to nod, and fall silent.

After waiting for a few minutes, the class heard a yelp from the other side of the door. "SATOKO!" Keiichi's voice yelled, before the door slid open, revealing the furious Maebara, with Rena and Mion behind him. "Your devilish pranks have come to an end!" He yelled, pointing a finger at Satoko, before the girl in question chuckled. "Oh, Maebara! How could you accuse a sweet, innocent girl like me of such an act?" she said, adopting a pair of puppy dog eyes. "Innocent my foot!" Keiichi exclaimed, before Adam recognised his signal, and he pressed his foot down on the trigger at his feet, and immediately, a barrage of whiteboard chalk pieces flew across the room, pelting the boy senseless. After the assault ended, Keiichi was flat on his back, groaning in pain. "You win this round, Satoko." He managed to breath out, before the girl chuckled. Walking over to Adam, she held up a hand. Returning the high-five, Adam said, "I look forward to working with you again, 'Trap-Master' Satoko.", making the girl smile, before she ran over to sit beside Rika. Looking back to Keiichi, Adam saw him shamble over to his desk, shooting him a glare as he did so…

After School…

"Alright, Mion, what we doing the day?" Jamie asked, as he and Adam took their seats next to the club. "Well, I know you two only joined us yesterday, but if you're playing today, it's gonna be a little…intimate." Mion said, before pulling a glass bottle from her bag. "You gotta be kidding me. Spin the Bottle?" Adam asked, before the girl nodded. "Alright, but first, one condition: If a boy gets another boy, they get to spin again, if they want. I think all three of them would be uncomfortable doing that." Shion said, before her sister nodded. "That's fair." Rika said, before Adam nodded. "Alright, then…" he started, reaching for the bottle…

"Let's Play!"
