Greetings, one and all, and welcome to the first chapter of Team ARCG: Wrath Of A Knight. I got inspired to write a second RWBY story when my other caught up with the series itself. Then I got this idea of a more 'pure' RWBY stuck in my head and here we are. So this won't have any connections with my other stories like RWBYS: Heroes does, so no Jason here folks.
As always I don't own anything except my OC's. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have writing it and now on to the story, (The cover art is on it's way).
On a cloudless night, at the streets of the City of Vale, a young man with tan skin, dark brown hair, the upper layer of his hair juts upward while the lower layer arches down, and royal blue eyes. He was dressed in a long-sleeved blue jacket with a high collar, over a sleeveless black shirt. His lower body consists of black jeans with amber knee pads, a belt with a holster hidden under his jacket containing his weapon, and calf-high motorcycle boots.
He passed a Dust Store which was still open, as he passed the window, but looking through the window, he went back and headed inside. Greeting the store owner, he headed towards the back, where he saw a girl standing with her back to him.
She had black hair with a red tint to it, along with silver-eyes. She was dressed in a black blouse, a black corset with red lacing, and a skirt with red trimmings, complete with a red cloak.
"Excuse me?", he said, but it was then that he softly heard music coming from under the girls red hood. Giving a slight tab on her shoulder, the girl turned around, removing her red headset, "You know Ruby, you shouldn't listen to your music at max volume.", he added with a smirk.
"Gabby!", the girl named Ruby said, wrapping her arms around his middle, giving him a big sisterly hug.
"You know how much I hate it when you call me that...", the young man muttered as he returned the hug, before the two released each other.
She gave a teasing laugh, rubbing her nose, "I know, Gabriel. Only Yang gets away with calling you Gabby."
Before the two could continue to talk, a group of people entered the shop. Placing a finger on his lip, Gabriel and Ruby hid behind a shelf, observing what was going on.
"P-please! Just take my Lien and leave!", the elderly shopkeeper said, but it seemed the thieves weren't after his Lien, but instead they removed crystals from the display case.
"Why did you need me to come and hit up a simple store, Roman?" a young man asked, sounding rather annoyed. He seemed to be around their age, having the same hair and eye color as the man he was talking to, but his hair was short and messy. He was dressed in a dark red unbuttoned short coat, and a black shirt underneath along with dark jeans and a pair of red running shoes. Two holsters, holding his duel daggers, are strapped above his waistline, largely hidden beneath the lower rim of his jacket.
"Do you really think I trust these buffoons? And besides, you almost sound like you don't want to hang out with your big bro, Remus.", the man called Roman said, as the shopkeeper proceeds to fill the case, as another henchman goes for another tube.
"Damn it. Those are the Torchwick brothers...", Gabriel whispered, before turning to Ruby, "You don't happen to have Crescent Rose with you?..."
At this Ruby tapped her holster, both grinning mischievously at each other, "Like usual?", she asked.
"Like usual.", Gabriel said, drawing his own weapon, which appeared as a sword with a slight curved blade and a shotgun like hilt.
Drawing their weapons, the two picked off two of the henchmen, and kicking them through the window down on the streets. The Torchwick brothers turned around to see what happened. Roman gave a scowl at this, while his younger brother raised a surprised eyebrow.
"Okayyy...", Roman said, before turning to his remaining henchmen, "Get them!"
The henchmen run at the duo, Ruby spins around her scythe and kicks the first approaching criminal in the face. Gabriel strikes one in the face, following it up with a powerful powerful punch to the adornment, before transforming his weapon into its shotgun mode and blasting the man, sending him flying.
Ruby removes Crescent Rose from the ground, using its gun function as well and fires, bringing the side down on one attacker and dodges the next's gunfire with her rifle's speed, getting close enough to knock him into the air and follow him upwards so she can beat him away to Roman's feet.
"You were worth every cent. Truly, you were.", Roman muttered in annoyance before turning to his younger brother, "Remus, can you entertain them for a few moments?"
"Does a bear crap in the woods? Or does Neo likes ice cream why to much?", Remus asked, unsheathing his two daggers, holding them in a reverse grip.
"Don't get cocky.", Roman warned his younger brother, "And don't try to sleep with that girl!", and with that he made his escape into an alleyway.
Ruby and Gabriel were about to give chase but suddenly found the younger Torchwick brother standing in their way. "Now I can't let you do that. It has been a very uneventful evening for me, let's see what happens first. You two dying or Roman actually getting the escape vehicle before the police arrive.", he said just as approaching police sirens are heard.
The duo were about to charge but were surprised when Remus appeared in front of them, forcing them to block his quick slashes as he moved around them in a blur. "Whoa, he is fast!", Ruby said surprised as she took a step back and took aim at the thief.
But just as Gabriel was about to strike Remus, the thief disappeared in a reddish blur, looking around they couldn't see him, "What are you looking at?", Ruby heard a husky voice whisper in her ear. Remus had appeared right next to her, hitting her with a powerful round house kick to the head, sending her flying into Gabriel's arms.
A bullhead appeared overhead, the hatch opening to reveal Roman standing there, "Well, Little Red and some guy, I'm afraid this is where we part ways.", he said, giving a mock salute before disappearing in that same red flash while reappearing inside the bullhead.
"Glad you at least got some of the Dust.", Remus said, before noticing something on the roof.
A woman with very light-blonde hair tied back in a bun with a curl hanging down the right side of her face. Her eyes are bright green and she wear a thin ovular glasses. She was dressed in a white long-sleeved suit that exposes part of her chest, and puffy sleeves that tighten near the wrist before spreading back out near her hands. Her lower body has a black business skirt with buttons running in a vertical line up the front of it and lighter black-brown stockings.
"We got a huntress!", Roman said as he headed into the cockpit. The woman waves her weapon and summons several streaks of purple at the craft. Remus shakes in the back as he was joined by a woman in red.
"You know, she might actually be pretty if she didn't had that stern look on her face.", Remus said as he changed his daggers to their gun mode, revealing two revolvers as he joined the woman in her attack.
"Try to keep it in your pants while we are under attack.", the woman told him as she aiming a burst of energy, which the Huntress blocks, but the flame splatters behind her and glows hot with the enemy's raised hand.
She back-flips out of the explosion, which destroys part of the roof, and magically gathers the shards to create a large arrow, which she throws at the craft. The fiery woman shatters the arrow with several blasts, but it reforms just in time to hit the side of the jet due to Roman's quick aerial lean.
The wreckage separates and reshapes into more arrows that encircle the jet, but the woman summons several glowing rings around herself that expand and destroy the shards.
Just as the craft tries to fly away, thanks to the sudden speed burst, the woman almost fell out of the still open hatch. Reacting quickly, Remus grabbed the woman's arm and pulled her back, but he miscalculated his own strength with her weight, making him tumble over as he fell out of the bullhead, seeing it fly away as he fell to the ground, and the moment he hit the pavement, a darkness swallowed him.
Ruby looked horrified as Gabriel went to check on the unmoving body of Remus, looking for a pulse. "Is he?...", she asked.
"No, he is alive. The bastard is pretty sturdy, but he will have a massive headache.", Gabriel said before standing up as the huntress came walking up to them.
"You're a Huntress!", Ruby said, turning to the woman,putting on a pleading, awe-stricken face, "Can I have your autograph!?"
A few hours later, Ruby, Gabriel and to their surprise Remus were sitting in a darkened room right underneath a bright light. Ruby was holding a pack of ice on Remus head as his hands were tied down to his chair, while the huntress, Glynda Goodwitch was looking on her Scroll, a computer like tablet.
"Gabriel, I hope that you realize that your actions tonight will not be taken lightly. You put yourself and others in great danger.", she scolded the young man, "I had expected you to behave less rashly."
"They were robbing a store, should I just stand back and hurt innocent people?", Gabriel asked.
"We weren't really hurting anyone.", Remus said, earning a glare from both Gabriel and Glynda.
"We will get to you, Mr. Torchwick.", she then turned to Ruby, "If it were up to me, you would be sent home... With a pat on the back... And a slap on the wrist. But... there is someone here who would like to meet you." She moves out of the way so the young man could see a middle-aged man with tousled gray hair and thin brown eyes. He has a light complexion, and sharp facial features. He wears shaded glass spectacles and a dark-green scarf with a small, purple, cross-shaped emblem on it. His outfit mainly consists of an unzipped black suit over a buttoned vest, with a green undershirt. He also wears black trouser shoes and long, dark-green pants.
"Ruby Rose...", the man said, leaning in to look at her face, "You... have silver eyes."
Ruby gave an unsure look, "That must be one of the oldest pick up lines in the book. But I think she is a little to young for you, Ozzy.", Remus said with a smirk.
"Well, it seems you have finally been caught, Remus.", Ozpin said, returning the smirk to the young man before turning his attention back to Ruby, "So Ruby! I know where Gabriel here learned to fight, but where did you learn to fight with one of the most dangerous weapons ever designed?"
"S-Signal Academy. Well, one teacher in particular.", Ruby explained.
"I see... It's just that I've only seen one other scythe-wielder of that skill before. A dusty, old crow...", Ozpin said.
"Oh! That's my uncle! He's a teacher at Signal. I was complete garbage before he took me under his wing.", Ruby said excitedly.
"You are still garbage, you barley could handle a two-bit thief.", Gabriel said teasingly.
"Hey! I take offence to that!", both Ruby and Remus said offended at the same time.
"So Ruby, a dusty old crow mentioned you want to come to my school after you graduate from Signal.", Ozpin said.
"More than anything.", she told him.
Ozpin exchanging glances with Glynda, who shows her disapproval with a 'Hmmph' before he turns back to Ruby, "Well, okay."
Ruby smiles, wide-eyed and open-mouthed.
"Now there is you, Remus Torchwick.", Ozpin said, turning to the young man, who looked rather bored. Glynda stepped forward, handing her Scroll to Ozpin who began to read Remus criminal record, "Unprovoked Assault, Disturbing the Peace, Public Indecency, Unauthorized Property Recolonization, Unflattering Impersonation of an Officer, Grand Theft Auto, Really Petty Larceny, Robbing Of Multiple Banks, Aggravated Jaywalking... So young and you already have a criminal record long enough, it spans from here to Vacuo and back."
"Ah, yes...", Remus said with a smile and a nostalgic, looking rather proud of himself.
The headmaster handed the Scroll back to Glynda, before he continued to speak, "While the authorities want you locked up into a maximum security cell and throw away the key, I think that would be a waste. You are very powerful, but you lack skill.", Ozpin continued, "So here are your options, you can go to prison and never see the light of day again, or you can become a student at Beacon Academy and learn to use your talents for the common good."
At this the young thief began to ponder, "Why would you want me in that academy of yours? I am just a wanted criminal, like my dear older brother."
Ozpin looked deep into his green eyes and responded, "You are good at fighting and you are evil just because circumstances dragged you into... underworld corruption. You can still help yourself and others on the way. The choice is yours of course."
To his side, Gabriel and Ruby were staring at him. Her innocent silver eyes burning holes in his corrupted soul. "Well, when you put it like that..."
The next morning, Gabriel, Ruby and Remus had board a large airship heading to Beacon academy. On it they met up a blond haired girl, who tackled Ruby into a hug, crushing the air out of her.
"Oh, I can't believe my baby sister is going to Beacon with me and Gabby! This is the best day ever!", the blond said. She was dressed in a tan vest with gold piping over a yellow low-cut crop top with a black crest that resembles a burning heart. The vest has puffy cap sleeves with black cuffs. She wears black shorts under her belt, which resembles a pleated skirt in the back.
"Yang, you know how much I hate it when you call me that...", Gabriel said.
"And that's why I do it... Gabby.", Yang said with a smirk, as Ruby gasped to release her and to stop praising her.
"But I'm so proud of you!", she said, releasing her, "You two took down one of Remnants most wanted criminals! Everyone at Beacon is going to think you're the bee's knees."
At the mention of this, Ruby felt a touch nervous, "I don't want to be the 'bee's knees', okay? I don't want to be any kind of knees! I just want to be a normal girl with normal knees.", she said, "And besides, it was no big deal when we took that thief down, and we had help from Glynda."
A loud cough drew their attention towards Remus sitting on a bench next to them, "Do not talk about me as if I am not present.", he said, sounding rather insulted.
"Ah, did we hurt your feelings? Be careful or I let Ruby and Gabby kick your ass again.", Yang said teasingly, just as a nearby TV screen showing Vale News Network, talking about a robbery and showing the Roman's mug shot.
"The robbery led to the arrest of the nefarious criminal Remus Torchwick, younger brother of Roman Torchwick who continues to evade authorities. If you have any information on his whereabouts, please contact the Vale Police Department. Back to you, Lisa."
The mugshot changes to a news anchorwoman, with a photo of animal-eared demonstrators holding signs saying 'We are not Animals' followed by an image of the logo of a growling red wolf's head with three scratch marks. "Thank you, Cyril. In other news, this Saturday's Faunus Civil Rights protest turned dark when members of the White Fang disrupted the ceremony. The once peaceful organization has now disrupted..."
The news feed is cut off as a hologram of Glynda replaces it. "Hello, and welcome to Beacon!", the hologram said.
"Who's that?", Yang asked.
"That cougar is named Glynda Goodwitch.", Remus told her, receiving an "Oh." from the blonde girl and a death glare from the young man as the hologram continued to talk.
"You are among a privileged few who have received the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy. Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future Huntsmen and Huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world." and with that said, the hologram disappears.
Gabriel turns around, looking out of the window, admiring the scenery from below until he hears a passenger groaning and hunched over nearby, running to the back of the ship. "I guess the view isn't for everyone.", he thought.
A few minutes later the airship docks at the entrance of the school, and as soon as one lands, the boy who vomited emerges and goes over to the nearest trash can, hunching over it as he loses his breakfast. Ruby, Gabriel, Yang and Remus walk alongside several other students, out of the ship and head down the paved path to the front of the school.
Yang left the three when she went of with another group of students, leaving the other three behind. "Wait, where are you going!? Are we supposed to go to our dorms? Where are our dorms? Do we have dorms?", Ruby asked as she turned to her male friend.
"We first have orientation in the auditorium first.", Gabriel said, making his friend nod.
"Let's go already!", Remus said in an annoyed sing song voice.
As the three turned around and began to walk, Ruby stumbled over a luggage cart, sending the cases flying.
"What are you doing!?", a girl shouted, as Remus helped Ruby back to her feet stood up, turning to the speaker they saw a young girl, dressed in a pale blue bolero jacket over a similarly colored thigh-length dress with a piece of black lace making up the neckline of the dress. The inside of the bolero is red and the sleeves turn blue as they get closer to her wrists.
"Sorry.", Ruby apologized.
"Sorry!? Do you have any idea of the damage you could have caused?", the girl in white said angrily, Gabriel picked up one of the girl's cases, "Give me that!", she snatched the luggage from Gabriel and opening it to reveal its twinkling-sounding contents. "This is Dust! Mined and purified from the Schnee quarry!"
"Hey, she said she was sorry, princess." a new voice spoke from behind.
Turning around they were approached by a young man with black hair modeled into a messy cut and sharp blue eyes. On the top of his head, he had seemed what looked like to be wolf ears. His outfit consists of a long white sleeveless coat, and a raised studded collar, with black sleeves from his shirt coming out from under. On his lower body he wore black pants with silver armored boots, with similar designed gloves on his lower arms.
"What are you doing here, Drayce?", the girl in white said surprised and irritated tone.
"I came here to learn, Schnee.", the young man said, giving the girl in white a smug look, "I am surprised your father let his precious little heir attend Beacon. This isn't your ordinary combat school. It's not just sparring and practice, we are here to fight monsters."
"Wha... How dare you... The nerve of... Ugh!", the girl in white said, walking off in a huff as her helpers gather the luggage and follow.
"I promise I'll make this up to you!", Ruby shouted after the girl, before turning to the young man who had came to her help, "Thanks for the help."
"No problem. I always relish the opportunity to work on the nerves of a Schnee.", the young man said. Ruby, Gabriel and after some convincing from Ruby, Remus introduced themselves, but before the young man could say anything another voice joined in.
"Avaro Drayce.", the four look over to see a a girl with a light olive complexion, with long, wavy black hair, and her eyes are orange. She wears a black ribbon tied in the form of a bow, while dressed in a black low-heeled boots and stockings that start off black at her hips, but gradually fade to purple as they near her shoes. On the outside of her stockings. She wears black ribbons on both of her arms, with a black detached sleeve and a silver band on her left.
"CEO of the Drayce Corporation. One of the largest producers of energy propellant, military equipment and 3D holograms in the world.", the girl said, "The same company infamous for its willingness to provide equal opportunity to human and Faunus alike.",
"That's me.", Avaro said, a sense of pride coming from him.
"Whoa, I didn't realize we were going to school with a celebrity.", Gabriel said impressed.
"Standing right here!", Remus said.
"Thieves don't really count.", Ruby added, the girl in black already left, "I guess I'm not the only one having a rough first day..."
It was then that they were approached by a tall teenage boy with dark-blue eyes that are emphasized by his messy blonde hair. He wears a white chestplate and shoulder armor. Under the armor, he wears a black hoodie with reddish-orange sleeves and an emblem hidden underneath the chestplate. He also wears blue pants with a white patch on the left knee. "Hey... I'm Jaune.", he introduced himself, and once again the group introduced themselves introduced themselves to him.
"Aren't you the guy that threw up on the ship?", Remus asked, earning a embarrassed nod from Jaune.
Gabriel, Ruby, Remus, Avaro, and Jaune were now walking through teh courtyard of Beacon Academy, inside the walls are filled with scenic trees, arching architecture, and a winding road alongside a river. "All I'm saying is that motion sickness is a much more common problem than people let on!", Jaune exclaimed to the group.
"Look, I'm sorry! Vomit Boy was the first thing that came to mind.", Ruby said, rubbing the back of her head, "So... I got this thing!" she pulls out Crescent Rose and stabs it into the ground.
"Whoa! Is that a scythe?", Jaune said impressed.
"No, it's obviously a broom.", Remus snarked as Ruby explained that Crescent Rose was also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle.
"Well if we are talking about weapons, I got this.", Gabriel said taking out his weapon, "This is Blazefire, aside from being a sword, it can also be used as a semi-automatic shotgun.", he told them proudly.
Jaune looked on in awe as the black haired CEO showed his, his gloves moved all over his fist, looking like a armored version of what kick-boxers wear. "These are the latest prototype of armor and legs augmentations.", Avaro explained, "It also contains a sub-machine gun in both gauntlets and boots. The right gauntlet can also be used as a communicator."
"Oh. That's cool! I got... this sword!", Jaune said, he unsheathes a blade, "And I've got a shield, too!", he gets his scabbard, raises his arm and expands the metal into his shield.
"So, what do they do?", Ruby asked touching the shield. Jaune fumbles with the shield as it retracts off his arm, expands, and retracts again before putting it back in place and finally shrinking it down for good, placing it on his belt.
"The shield gets smaller, so when I get tired of carrying it, I can just... put it away..."
"Wouldn't it weigh the same?", Remus asked, making Jaune remark that it does.
"Be proud of your weapon Jaune, not many people can appreciation a classics these days.", Ruby said, trying to encourage him.
"Yeah, the classics...", he muttered, rubbing the back of his head.
The group entered the auditorium, filled to the brim with people. As they took in the room, their attention was drawn to a girl calling Ruby and Gabriel over. "Ruby! Gabby! Over here! I saved you a spot!", Yang waved at them.
"Oh! We gotta go! See you after the ceremony!", Ruby said and before Gabriel could say anything back he got dragged along with Remus, leaving Avaro and Jaune behind.
Once the three joined the blond girl, who crossed her arms, "How's your first day going?", she said with a wink to Ruby before noticing the other two boys she had walked in with, "Already getting yourself a harem or pretty boys and a thief, ain't ya, little sister."
At this remark, Ruby became beat red at her sisters remark, "Leave her alone, Yang. We just ran into them after running into some trouble with a girl named Schnee, she was yelling at Ruby and...", Gabriel explained until he was interrupted by a loud yell, directed at Ruby.
"Oh, God, it's happening again!", Ruby said as the girl in white came over to them.
"That's the Schnee girl.", Remus said.
"My name is Weiss. You really wanna start making things up to me?", she told them, before turning to Ruby who nodded her head, before Weiss shoved a pamphlet in Ruby's hands, "Read this, and don't ever speak to me again." before she strode away from them.
"Well she seems nice.", Remus said, sarcastically as their attention is drawn to the stage, where Professor Ozpin is readying the microphone, with Glynda beside him.
"I'll... keep this brief. You have traveled here today in search of knowledge, to hone your craft and acquire new skills, and when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look among you, and all I see is wasted energy, in need of purpose, direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step."
As Ozpin leaves, Glynda steps up to talk, "You will gather in the ballroom tonight; tomorrow, your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed."
Later that night in the ballroom, the students are splayed out in sleeping bags. Gabriel is dressed in a cyan t-shirt and black boxer shorts. Ruby was laying down on her own sleeping bag, writing a letter for her friends back at Signal Academy.
Yang was laying next to her, looking at the other boys, while Remus said that he went to change. It wasn't long before he got back wearing only a pair of shorts covering the lower parts of his body but nothing besides that. He was tall and slim but quite well build.
Remus noticed they were staring at him, he struck a sexy pose and winked at them, "Like what you see?" he asked.
"Keep dreaming Torchwick.", Yang said.
He let out a chuckle, "Believe me, Blondy, you would be wearing even less than you are now if its my dream.", he said with a smug grin, he then noticed Ruby's frustrated face, getting a large grin on his face, "At least Ruby likes it."
He throws himself onto the sleeping bag between Gabriel and Ruby, not noticing the former's irritated look. He looked into my eyes and started to lean towards me, but soon he started to chuckle loudly and pointing at something.
Turning around they saw Jaune in his full body pajamas. "It's like a big slumber party!", Yang said.
"I don't think dad would approve of all the boys, though.", Ruby said, not looking up. as she continues to write.
"I know I do!", Yang purrs, watching several muscular, shirtless guys.
"So what were you doing?", Gabriel asked Ruby, looking over her journal.
"Oh, just a letter to the gang back at Signal. I promised to tell them all about Beacon and how things are going.", Ruby said, a little embarrassed.
"It's good to stay in contact with your friends, it can be weird at first, being in a new place with no friends.", he told her.
"Well, I have you.", Ruby said.
Gabriel nodded at this, "You always will.", he give Remus a satisfying smirk, before noticing a candle being lighted nearby, and the black haired girl from earlier that day is leaning against a wall, reading her book.
"You know her?", Yang asked, Gabriel explained what happened that morning, "Well, now's your chance!", she grabs Ruby's arm and lifts her up. Giving each other a look, Gabriel and Remus stood up to followed the two sisters over to the girl.
The black haired girl looks over her book to see Ruby unsuccessfully struggling against Yang's grip as she lead her sister over to her spot before letting go. "Hel-looooo! I believe you two may know each other?", Yang said.
The black haired girl simply said "No." before turning back to her book.
"My name is Gabriel Cerulean.", he introduced himself, she gave him a blunt 'okay', "So... What's your name?", the black haired girl sighing as she's distracted yet again.
"Blake.", she answered.
"Well, Blake, I'm Yang, Ruby's older sister!", Yang said, gesturing to Remus, "And the ginger over there is Remus. I like your bow!", but Blake only seemed irritated.
It was then that a young man with long messy silver hair, which was unkempt at the front, his bangs covers his right eye, his eye color being red. He was wearing a black pant, showing his muscular frame, Yang letting our a purr. "Ladies and gentlemen, she isn't interested in talking.", the young man said, turning to them, "Let's leave her to her book."
"Thank you.", Blake said, not looking up.
"But before we leave, what is it about? Your book I mean.", he added, surprising the girl.
"Well... I-it's about a man with two souls, each fighting for control over his body.", she explained with a slight smile.
"Sound's interesting.", the silver haired young man said, a honest smile on his face, "Maybe I can borrow it sometime?"
"I love books. Yang used to read to me every night before bed. Stories of heroes and monsters... They're one of the reasons I want to be a Huntress!", Ruby added with a nostalgic smile.
Blake laughed a little, "And why is that? Hoping you'll live happily ever after?"
"Well, I'm hoping we all will. As a girl, I wanted to be just like those heroes in the books... Someone who fought for what was right, and protected people who couldn't protect themselves!", Ruby told her with a big smile.
"That's... very ambitious for a child.", Blake said, her smile turns into a frown, "Unfortunately, the real world isn't the same as a fairy tale."
"No, it's not.", the silver haired young man agreed, shaking his head slowly before looking serious, "That's why it's up to some of us try to make the Worlds a better place than it was when we find it.", before telling her he would leave her to her books.
"Wait... What's your name?", Gabriel asked the young man.
He stopped in his tracks, turning around to face them, "Ciaran Aleron, nice to meet you all.", the young man now named Cairan said with a kind smile. Before more could be said, they were interrupted by Weiss who comes storming to them in her own pajamas.
"What in the world is going on over here!?", Weiss demanded to know, "Don't you realize some of us are trying to sleep?"
Moments later, Avaro dressed in a gray long sleeved and dark gray pants came walking over to them. "Isn't it way past your bed time, Schnee?", the Wolf Faunus said.
"Guys, she's right! People are trying to sleep!", Ruby said getting between the taller Avaros and the same length Weiss, who asked why she was suddenly on her side, "I was always on your side!"
"What's your problem with my sister?", Yang asked, coming to her sister's defense.
"Yeah, she's only trying to be nice!", Gabriel added.
"She's a hazard to my health!", Weiss argued back.
"Being a Schnee is a hazard to your health.", Avaros added, standing next to Yang.
"Now hold on, ganging up on one lady isn't a nice thing to do.", Ciaran said, coming to Weiss defense.
As the group began to argue, Remus leaned in, whispering into Ruby's ear, "I don't know what you are going to do but I am going to rest a little. If you want, Little Red, you can always hug me to feel some company." He send her his smirk again and walked back to his sleeping bag.
There ya go, the first chapter hope you enjoyed it. And before your going to send me messages about my OC's not having color names, allow me to explain.
Gabriel Cerulean: his last name means 'Ocean Blue' while his first name means 'Protector'.
Avaro Draycen: Avaro is Latin-America meaning 'white' while Drayce is a modern variant of dragon.
Ciaran Aleron: Ciaran is Irish meaning 'black and mysterious' while his last name Aleron is French meaning Knight.
And while I admit that Remus Torchwick doesn't relate to a color (not to my knowledge), his first name is a reference to the brothers Remus and Romulus, the founders of Rome? Get it? Because Roman sounds like Romulus?... I'll shut up now...
