Author's Notes:

This was just a totally random idea that popped into my head. I felt like writing it, so I did. I hope someone at least gets a laugh out of it.

It's unbetad, but I gave it a quick proofread, so there shouldn't be too many typos or grammatical errors.

Blake lept over to the blonde brawler to report her findings, "It's tougher than it looks."

Yang reloaded her gauntlets and gave the order, "Then let's hit it with everything we've got!"

But they never got the chance. A meteor blazed across the sky. It hit the Nevermore and the Grimm fell to the ground in an explosion of feathers. The meteor smashed through the tower that RWBY had been standing on before burrowing into the ground near the cliffs.

Ruby was the last to land safely on a nearby bridge. She looked the same direction as the other three, towards the trail of smoke that had come from the sky.

Yang was the first to speak, "Well that was a thing."

Ruby nodded, "Yeah, the question is... what kind of a thing?"

The four wordlessly approached the crater. They saw a green crystalline structure at the center of it. Blake cautiously stepped closer and reached out with her palms open, "It's not even warm. We should be able to feel the heat from here."

Weiss looked at it curiously, "It's not Dust, at least not any kind that I've ever seen. Where did it come from?"

Yang looked up into the sky, "Nowhere nearby, that's for sure."

Weiss saw Ruby reach out to touch it and reached out to try and stop her, "Ruby, wait!"

When Ruby touched the surface there was an audible hiss, as if from a seal being broken. The top of the meteor started to lift off into the air.

There was a compartment inside. A red blanket was bundled up within. They were all already motionless but froze all over again when they heard a baby start to cry. The blanket was pushed aside by the rising of two tiny seemingly human hands.

Ruby picked up the baby, still wrapped in its bright red blanket, the same color as her cloak. She tried her best to comfort it.

Yang stepped closer and smiled at the mysterious child in her sister's arms.

Blake stayed perfectly still and stared at the new arrival unblinkingly as if it would explode at any second, "A baby."

Weiss looked at the baby, then the meteor, then the smoke trail in the sky, then the baby again, "Ok, what in the hell is going on?"

Yang rapidly glared daggers at her, "Hey, watch your language around the kid."

Weiss looked at her disbelievingly, "You miss my point. How is there a kid? Where did it come from?"

Ruby looked up at Weiss, "It is a he. He came from a meteor that fell from the sky. Pay attention."

Yang looked up at the smoke trail, "You can thank the little guy for taking out the Nevermore for us on the way down too."

It was then that JNPR arrived at the crashsite and saw the strange meteor next to Ruby... who was holding a baby.

Jaune and Pyrrha simply froze, trying to process and interpret what they were seeing. Ren raised a questioning eyebrow at the entire situation. Nora might not have even noticed the meteor with how instantly she focused entirely on the baby. Her face lit up and she squealed as she ran over to acquaint herself with the tiny newcomer.

Jaune remarked to Pyrrha, "Um, how long exactly did we take to get here?"

Pyrrha looked at Ruby holding the baby, "Not long enough."

Ren looked at the opening in the center of the meteor, "Did the baby come from the meteor?"

Blake nodded absentmindedly.

Ren commented, "It looks human."

Blake nodded again.

Ren looked at the baby again, "Hm."

Jaune carefully approached the trio that was ogling over the tiny creature in the red blanket, "Ehehe, I'm sorry to interrupt, but are we sure that the creepy space baby that fell from the sky isn't radioactive or diseased or something?"

Weiss and Blake promptly took a large step backward.

The three closest, Ruby, Yang and Nora, momentarily paused. Yang looked at Jaune, and then at the meteor, and then back at the baby, "He's actually got a point. We should get little Clark here to a doctor back at Beacon. We have no idea what being inside that meteor might have done to him."

Blake glared at Yang, "Clark? You named it?"

Ruby held Clark defensively, "Of course she named him! He's a baby. We found him, so we get to name him."

Pyrrha asked Yang, "Why Clark?"

Yang answered, "My gramps had an uncle named Clark who lived out in the country. This little fella reminds me of the stories about Clark."

Ruby looked at Yang, "Why?"

Yang shrugged.

Ren sighed, "Well, we have to call him something until we find out what his real name is, if he even has one."

Weiss exchanged a look with Ren and then looked up into the sky. Weiss continued his statement, "If we can even call it a he."

Ruby started to walk out of the crater. Everyone besides Yang and Nora parted like the red sea to avoid proximity. Yang and Nora followed closely behind.

Ruby looked up the cliffside, "Why don't we split up. Half of us can take Clark up to the school to see a doctor and the others can stay behind and see if they can't move the meteor."

Yang spoke up, "Maybe it should just be us and Nora that take Clark up. If there is radiation to be worried about we're the only ones likely to already be contaminated."

The Nevermore burst out of a pile of collapsed rocks nearby. It rose into the air and screeched. Everyone who wasn't carrying a baby pulled out their weapons. The Grimm hurled a volley of feathers at the three huddled around Clark.

The feathers never hit their target. A bright red blast erupted into the sky, incinerating the feathers and the giant bird itself in the blink of an eye.

Everyone present immediately looked to the source of the mass destruction, the glowing red eyes of the baby in Ruby's arms. There was a long silence.

Jaune was first to speak, "Uh, what?"

Weiss was next, "I'm sorry, but I'm with him. Just... what?"

Blake calmly answered both of them, "Clark killed the Nevermore just by looking at it."

Nora threw her arms up into the air, "WooHoo! That was awesome! His name is Clark and all will fear his laser face!"

Ren looked at Clark worriedly, "She's right. That much power will scare almost anyone. People will call him a monster, or worse, they may try to weaponize him. The future of the world may very well be literally resting in Ruby's hands right now."

Ruby looked down at Clark and smiled, "He's not a monster. He's a man, our little man of tomorrow."

Pyrrha looked up at where the Nevermore had once been, "More like our own little Superman."

Yang looked worried, "I don't think we can let a doctor see Clark. If they do they might not give him back."

Weiss was shocked, "And? Would that be such a bad thing? He'd be with experts and professionals. What makes you think we're any better suited to raise some sort of Superman?"

Jaune chimed in, "We may not be, but at least we know that we have Clark's best interests at heart. If the government gets ahold of him they might try to raise him as their own one man army."

Blake nodded, "They'll do a lot worse than that if they get it into their heads that his abilities might be something that they can replicate. We have to keep his origin a secret."

Ren frowned, "That won't be easy if he can blast the side of the school open on a whim."

Ruby held Clark closely with a determined expression, "Well it doesn't seem like we have much of a choice."

Weiss sighed, "If we're going to do this, we're going to do it right. I'll need to get some supplies from the city."

Ruby nodded once, "Right then. Jaune, go with her."

Weiss exclaimed, "Wait, what?"

Ruby continued, "Yang, Nora and I will take Clark up the cliffs. The rest of you can try to relocate the meteor, somewhere hidden, but still easily accessible. The crater and smoke trail are suspicious enough without anyone seeing the empty compartment where we found him."

Pyrrha thought for a moment, "I think I know just the place if we can get it there."

Blake, Pyrrha and Ren stayed behind to move the meteor while the others set out for the top of the cliffs.

Author's Notes:

Ugh, I don't know what I'm thinking. I have too many stories going already. I'm just gonna tell ya'll this now, this story might be discontinued at any moment with no notice. There are a few chapters I already have written, so I'll publish those, but I make no promises to write any more.

Another thing is that some characters *cough* Weiss *cough* might behave a bit OOC at times. This is mostly because I wanted to avoid just rehashing all the same interpersonal conflicts that were in the original show, because reading a bad novelization isn't what any of us come here to do.

With that out of the way, the next chapter will be published whenever I feel like proofreading it. In the meantime, feedback is always appreciated.
