RWBY Bright Monster Hunters

by Kokiri-Hylian-Hero

Since the rise of man, monsters have stalked them as prey. Since the rise of civilizations, armies were formed to combat the monsters. Since the rise of kingdoms, man has turned his weapons on himself, blood drawn wasn't always a monster's. Since the rise of ruins and monster's shadows overcasting man's future, a mighty faction-the Hunter's Guild-formed, their shining hope.

RWBY Bright Monster Hunters: Ruby Basarios

Fall arrived on Heaven's Mount, as did a red hood figure. Thus shielded from the brisk wind, the hunter boldly approached a pink studded giant, golem like on two legs, a pair large wings gave it's imposing form an even more intimidating appearance.

"So, this is a Ruby Basarios?" the huntress' foot snapped a twig, attracting attention from the large beast, it turned and roared at her, then charged. She jumped back and watched the large legs stomp pass her as she took a red, squarish object off her lower back, transforming it into a grand, crimson scythe as an Autumn gale pulled her hood back.

She side jumped to avoid a blast of fire that erupted from the spit the Ruby Basarios attacked her with, then ran charged at it, deft dodges kept her from colliding with one of the pink rocks that fell from the monster's back.

"Reminds me of Zwei after a bath...ah!" she stopped in her tracks and leapt back, a pickax in hand as she landed in front of a rock that was perfectly embedded in the ground. With a mighty strike a beautiful crystal was freed, "Heavenly Crystal—people usually have to search hours for one of these...but does the Ruby Basarios make them, or absorb them into it's shell?"

She set her scythe's blades on each side of the monster's leg, crunching down for a moment before jumping away, it's leg being too sturdy for an easy win.

She took a deep breath and clambered up a vine as the monster swung it's tail where she was, then jumped back and landed on it's back. She rapidly stabbed with her hunting knife and held on as it stumbled around, trying to break her from it's back until she toppled it. She got back to her feet and speedily ran around to it's back and set down some barrel bombs, jumped, turned in the air, and pulled her scythe's blade back to fire at the barrels. She landed in the clearing dust and found she couldn't mine it's back, so she attacked it's back, but her scythe's tip was deflected.

"Wow, this is tough! Ruby versus Ruby, one on one, this isn't going to be easy!" she danced around it's massive form as it attempted to crush her under it's bulky form in a roll, but only it's wing ever touched her as it pulled her hood back up, "But it will be an interesting match."

Author's Notes: I was going to have her in the Heavy Metal Quest—the only way I can fight a Ruby Basarios might be that one, unless it's an Advanced Quest and just not showing up—because I played Heavy Metal to learn the Basarios' moves...they're a lot like Basarios, so coupled with my Palicoes mostly not fainting, I wasn't sent back to the arena starting room once, not even by using my Farcaster. The part I wanted to include is when I trapped the Basarios, then hit the Ruby one with a couple of Tranq Bombs and set the Pitfall trap under it, it was such a glorious moment, perfect for our starring huntress, but maybe later that fight will show up when—SPOILERS—!PU SMROF YBWR MAET, if I remember the battle later, I should, though, since my fights aren't usually so...epic, got to share the best moments, you know?

Also, the drinks in Monster Hunters are apparently alcoholic, so Little Red will be twenty-one, but just like the show, everyone else is two years older, but just as inexperienced with monsters as she is. Also, I don't plan on instantly shipping people, and don't know how many other characters will make an appearance, but I will include Team Juniper and Team Coffee and the headmasters to be here!
