A RWBY Fan fiction (Alternate Universe)
Alliance
By: theshadowgirl321
Prologue:
I ran through the woods as fast as I could, not knowing what I was running from and never looking back at my chaser. All I could do was move forward. That's all I had been doing. As I scanned ahead I realized that I was heading towards a cliff. I tried to stop, but my legs wouldn't listen. It's like their instinct was to keep moving. I tripped and fell to the ground; my body skidded and rolled off the cliff into a river below.
I woke up in an infirmary, to what seemed like a few days later, to the sound of a snoring old man in the bed next to mine. I had no clue how I got there, just that I was. A raspy voice began to overpower the snoring, but I couldn't make out what it was saying. I was still a little out of it. And that's where my story, Yang Branwen, begins.
Chapter One:
What's he saying? His lips were moving, but I couldn't understand the words he was forming. Who is he? I thought to myself. He appeared to be drunk, he definitely smelled like it. As I struggled to sit up it I noticed he must have caught on that I couldn't comprehend what he was telling me because he pulled a nurse over to me as she was walking by. As my head and thoughts began to clear my ability to comprehend became more available as well.
"She just woke up Qrow. Give her time to regain full consciousness and assess her surroundings." Finally, I could actually understand the situation. Wait? Did she just call him Qrow? In a panic, I tried forcing myself up. But the nurse hurried over to me and laid me back down. "Looks like you've regained full consciousness. But don't rush things, you were found in pretty bad shape." She told me.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Ah, she speaks!" Qrow interrupted. It seemed to be on purpose.
"Qrow!" The nurse snapped back. "If you continue to stress out my patients I will force you to leave!" I sensed some tension between these two.
"Um… excuse me? Where am I exactly?" I tried to calm the situation down by changing the subject to something that made sense.
"Sorry dear. This man and I have some… unresolved issues." The nurse told me. "But he was the one who found you on the side of the nearby river and brought you here."
"The name's Qrow." He added in. "What's yours?" I hesitated telling him. After all, he's in the picture with my mom and dad that I found a couple months ago; so of course I'd be nervous.
"I'll tell you my name first to get you more comfortable, okay?" The nurse said.
"Okay." I replied. "My name is Glynda Goodwitch." She told me. "I'm the head doctor here at this facility." Head doctor?
"Wait, I thought you were a nurse?" I asked. Qrow laughed in amusement.
"A nurse?" He laughed even harder. "That's the most hilarious thing I've heard all day! You sure know how to make a good first impression Glynda." She, however, was not as amused as Qrow. But she went on like it didn't bother her.
"So, are you ready to tell us your name?" I reluctantly nodded my head in agreement.
"My name is Yang." I told her. She didn't seem very satisfied with me only saying my first name, but brushed it off pretty quickly.
"It's nice to meet you Yang, but how did you end up unconscious and injured down by the river?"
"'I um… I rather not talk about it at the moment." I responded.
"Okay well, we'll let you rest." Glynda informed me. As they were walking away Qrow turned to me: "We'll have someone bring you your stuff later. But we will be back with more questions at some point, just so you know."
More questions? I thought to myself. I don't have time for more questions. I have to find him. I have to find my dad.
I tried forcing myself up once again. But my body was too weak and injured from falling off the cliff, so I couldn't hold myself up for very long. Even so, I kept trying for about two more minutes until I fell off the bed.
"What are you doing?" I heard a voice from above me. It sounded monotonous, and yet irritated. I tried looking up but falling off the bed apparently didn't help the pain from my injuries. As I continued to struggle, I heard a loud sigh and then felt my body begin to slowly get up. "You shouldn't be in such a hurry." The voice told me. Wow, I must be looking pretty pathetic if someone deems it necessary to help me up.
"Thanks." I said.
"You don't sound very grateful." The person mentioned. As I was laid back down in my bed, I was able to see who was helping me. It was a girl who looked about my age with black hair and yellow eyes. She wore a black v-neck crop top with a white short sleeved jacket and fingerless gloves that went up her forearm. She also wore black pants with a brown belt that slid down her waist diagonally along with black boots. From what I could tell, she was quite beautiful.
As I looked at her I noticed something furry on top of her head on each side. Cat ears? "What?" She asked.
"Huh?" I responded innocently.
"You're staring at me."
"Oh sorry, I didn't realize that I was." I honestly didn't. "I was just thinking how unusual it is to see a Faunus outside of Menagerie." She seemed understanding.
"Well, it is unusual." She replied. "I'm Blake, in case you were wondering." There was a slight awkward pause after she said that. "So…um… what's your name?" She asked. I hadn't realized that she was expecting me to tell her my name after she told me hers.
"Oh! My name's Yang." I said.
She smiled. "It's good to meet you Yang." She put a backpack that I could tell was mine, down on a chair and started to walk away. That's it? This girl isn't very social if you ask me. Before I could stop her she had already disappeared. She's definitely from Menagerie. Faunus tend to hid who they are if they grow up outside of it. And she's not hiding who she is one bit. Ever since an alliance formed between the four kingdoms (Vale, Mistral, Vacuo, and Atlas), Menagerie has been a neutral territory dedicated to protecting itself instead of fighting in the war against Salem and the order. But because they want to protect themselves, they need an army. So they have The White Fang, an organization that trains their members into soldiers. I guess that makes The White Fang Menageries Army. I wonder why Blake is here if she's from Menagerie. But where exactly is here?
I had been so distracted by meeting new people and trying to get up that I had totally forgotten that I have no idea where I am. That Glynda lady called this place a facility, but what kind of facility? Ugh! I can't believe this is happening! I need to find my dad, not sit here and do nothing!
"You seem frustrated."
"Ahhh!" I screamed in surprise.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. Yang, is it?" It was a man with grey hair and glasses. He held a cane in his hands.
"Yeah it is." I replied with my voice shaking. 'Who are you?" I asked.
"Aren't you more curious about where you are?" He responded.
"Yeah I guess I am." I told him.
"Well, how about I just answer both of your questions then." He smirked. "My name is Professor Ozpin, and you are at Beacon Academy one of the alliances main facilities here in Vale."
"THE ALLIANCE!" I shouted.
"Yes, and may I just say welcome Miss Yang Branwen."
