VANCE HERE EVERYONE! Sorry I've been gone for so long but I decided to take a break from pretty much everything and throw myself into school. While I did that I some how rekindled my love for Yu Yu Hakusho and HxH, and more specifically Younger Toguro. That being said I decided write an awesome story about this badass mother fucker. This is going to be a 3 way cross over as I'm gonna be throwing a couple of HxH characters into the mix, a pair I hope you all love as much as I do.
Disclaimer: I do not own RWBY or Yu Yu Hakusho or any of their characters. Nor do I make any money off of this story, this is written purely for entertainment. All credit goes to the respective owners.
"Koenma you bastard." Toguro growled to himself as he took in his surroundings. Moments before he had said his goodbyes to Genkai and walked through the gateway that would take him to hell as he had requested, after stepping through however he found himself blinded by bright light even with his sunglasses, then when the light faded he found himself standing in a clearing in the middle of a forest somewhere. It was obvious that the ruler of spirit world hadn't wanted to send him to hell even if he asked for it, but he hadn't expected him to send him to the wrong place against his knowledge.
With a sigh Toguro put his hands in his pockets and decided to start walking, he didn't really care which direction and he didn't really care about a destination, he just walked. He spent the next several hours walking, at one point during his walk he'd been attacked by several large wolf like creature with white masks but they proved to be harmless to him. One flick was all it took to put a hole through ones chest, the rest were just as easy to eliminate. One had managed to get behind him and sink it teeth into him only for it's fangs to completely fail to puncture his skin.
Toguro stopped upon reaching the very first sign of civilizations he'd seen since arriving in this forest, a half destroyed abandoned house. "Maybe I was wrong and this is hell. An eternity of just some empty forest filled with weak enemies." He muttered to himself before walking up to the old house and entering. Any furniture inside had long since rotted from the elements, the floor boards were rotted as well. The back wall had collapsed inward taking most of the roof with it, the place was a complete wreck, but the location was sound.
"I guess it's as good a place as any to live in hell." He shrugged before setting to work.
Weeks later
Yang looked down at the picture in her hand as she walked down the path through the forest, behind her Ruby laid sleeping inside her wagon as they went. She was exhausted, she had no clue how long she'd been walking but she felt like she was going to collapse at any moment. This whole thing had been a mistake, she just wanted to find her mom. She'd been close to tears when she saw what she'd been looking for, a log cabin. "Mom?" She asked to herself with renewed energy before she took off running towards the small wooden home, Ruby still asleep in her wagon behind her.
As she reached the door she smiled and banged on it with her tiny fists, but didn't receive an answer. "Mommy!" She called out at the door but still didn't receive any reply. Tears began welling up in her eyes when she heard it, a deep growl came from the bushes nearby by. Turning slowly she began to tremble as a beowulf slowly began to step out, it's red eyes focused on her as it did. She wanted to cry out for help but she was to tired and to scared.
"Well isn't this a surprise." A deep voice spoke up from behind her, looking to the source she saw a shirtless man holding an entire tree on his shoulder without any sign of effort. He had black hair, a pair of black sunglasses, and a set of dark grey pants. "I didn't expect guests." He said before looking towards the grimm that was now looking at him and growling. After another moment the beast charged towards him, the man didn't panic and instead grabbed the tree on his shoulder and brought it down on top the the monster like it was a simple stick completely crushing the beast. "Damn pests."
Yang could only look up in awe at the giant man walking toward her, tears now falling freely. When the man finally stopped a few feet away he knelt down in front of her. "It's not safe for a little girl to be walking around in this forest, where are your parents girl?" He asked, even while kneeling he towered over her to the point that she nearly had to lean back to see his face. "Where is your home?" Shakily and slowly Yang raised her arm and pointed in the direction she'd come from, following her arm the man nodded before standing back up. "I see, hold on just a second." The man said before walking to the door of the small wooden cabin and entering, he was forced to duck in order to enter.
After almost a minute he reemerged from the cabin wearing a green tank top underneath a large green trench coat. Looking down at the girl and then at the wagon where a second even younger girl laid sleeping he motioned to the wagon. "Hop in, you look tired. I'll take you to your home." He told her calmly. After a few seconds Yang nodded and climbed into the wagon with Ruby, shifting her so that she was in her lap. The man reached down and grabbed the handle of the wagon and began pulling it behind him as he walked in the direction Yang had pointed.
They walked in silence for nearly an hour before the giant man spoke again. "What's your name girl?" He asked without looking back at her.
Yang was quiet. "Daddy says not to talk to strangers." She finally responded quietly.
The man chuckled at that. "I don't suppose he ever told you not to wander into a forest full of monsters alone did he?" The man glanced back at the two. "My name is Toguro. Can you tell me why you were out so far into the forest, if I hadn't come along when I did that monster would have had you and that girl in your lap for dinner."
Yang was quiet again for almost a minute. "I was looking for my mommy. I found a picture of her and wanted to find her."
Toguro nodded. "I see, next time you want to going looking I would recommend bringing an adult." There was silence between the two again for another fifteen minutes before Toguro asked a question. "Your father, is he a warrior?"
Yang tilted her head. "Daddy's a huntsmen, he fights grimm."
"Grimm? Is that what those creatures are called, interesting." He nodded, he'd been feeling a power source for a while now which continued to get stronger the further he walked. It wasn't anything to write home about, if he were to judge it was around the level of middle to low C class in power.
Deciding to follow the power source Togure continued walking. It wasn't until the sun had already set that he arrived at the top of a hill that over looked another wooden cabin, this one was much larger than the one he'd been living in. Also there was a large crowd of people in front of the house. Looking back at the girls in the wagon he noticed that Yang had fallen asleep and was curled up with the other girl. Sighing Toguro began walking down the hill and towards the crowd.
"WE HAVE TO KEEP LOOKING!" A man shouted loudly at the crowd from the porch of the house.
"Tai, we're not huntsmen like you. We can't go running around the forest at night." Another man spoke from the crowd. "I know you're scared for your girls, we all are, but we have to wait for morning to continue."
The blonde man at the front of the crowd wasn't having it. "THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE TILL MORNING!"
"Excuse me!" Toguro spoke up earning the crowds attention. "I don't suppose these are your children." He motioned to the two sleeping girls in the wagon next to him.
The blonde man didn't reply before sprinting through the crowd and falling to his knees next to the wagon, in an instant he scooped the two girls up into his arms and held them tightly. "Hey he found them!" Someone shouted from the crowd earning a cheer from the crowd as well as a wave of thanks.
Toguro looked down at the crying man who was holding the now awake girls who were now also crying. After a few more moments Toguro turned and began walking away from the crowd, ignoring all the calls of thanks. It was weird to him to be thanked for anything, for people to look at him with anything but fear or hatred wasn't something he was use to. Besides he was still coming to terms with the fact that there were other people here in the first place, he'd assumed it was just him and those monsters. "Maybe I should've looked around more." He chuckled to himself again.
After nearly ten minutes of walking he stopped and turned to look up at a crow sitting on a tree branch that was watching him. "I don't know of many birds with the amount of power you have inside you, why don't you come down here if you want to speak." Toguro spoke to the bird that hopped off a branch and flew down behind a large tree.
"Not many people can see through my transformation, and those that can are always the dangerous type." A man with grayish black haired stepped out from behind the tree.
"What do you want?" Toguro asked calmly, this man was just like the other though slightly more powerful, low to mid C class. He wasn't a threat, even if he wanted to be one.
"Well normally I'd ask how you were able to see past my transformation, but first I'd like to say thanks. Those two brats you saved were my nieces and they mean a lot to me." His eyes were serious as he said this. "Normally I'd just let you know that I owed you a favor, one you could cash in later if you ever needed it. However sense you've gone and peaked my interest, I'd like to offer you an opportunity to get a job."
Toguro was silent as he stared at the man, a job didn't sound to bad. For the past few weeks he'd basically just been sitting on his ass doing nothing or rebuilding his cabin, and there were the occasional grimm that would attack but they didn't pose any challenge. "What sort of job?"
The drunk looking man smiled. "It might be better if my boss explained it."
One Day Later
"Hmm, an interesting building." Toguro looked up at Beacon tower with his ever neutral look, he ignored many of the teenagers walked around him, many of which were staring of whispering. He was use to it, being over nine feet tall always earned the attention to normal people, he often had children point and talk out loud about his height in public.
"A bit dramatic if you ask me, but so is my boss. Come on he's probably waiting on us." Qrow said as he walked past him towards the entrance to the tower. Following behind Toguro put his hands back into his pockets.
He could feel something odd here, there were far more energy sources all around him, the teenagers were all high D class to low C class. But at the top of the tower they were entering was someone with a mid to high C class power level, however it was the feel of the energy that caught his attention. He'd noticed upon first meeting Yang in the forest that her spirit energy felt different than what he was use to, everyone he'd encountered so far was the same, but the power at the top of the tower felt different even compared to them.
Stepping into an elevator behind Qrow, Toguro had to duck. The elevator rose quickly and soon reached the top, when the doors slid open he found an odd room settled beneath a great number of turning gears. "Qrow it's good to see you again, and you've brought a friend. How can I help you?" Spoke an older looking man with gray hair and glasses.
Qrow walked up and took a seat in one of the chairs across from the older man, Toguro opted to remain standing though he did move closer to the desk the man sat at. "Oz let me introduce you to a friend I met in the forest, his name is Toguro."
Four Years Later
Toguro stood at the center of the ruined town of Kuro Hitsugi, it had been a small town along the coast of Mistral. It's main business was smuggling and drug running, now it was only a smoking collection of destroyed buildings and mutilated corpses. Toguro walked over to the nearest of said corpses and looked it over with the ever present emotionless mask that was his face. It was the upper half of a young women, likely early twenties, where her lower half was he hadn't a clue. Based off of the wounds he could see however it was easy to tell this was done by something with very large teeth and claws.
Standing back up Toguro took another look around before feeling something land on his shoulder, he didn't even need to look. "This is the third smuggling town to have been hit like this. The front gate isn't damaged so the grimm didn't have to force their way in, just like the others someone opened it before the attack began." Toguro looked to the crow that sat perched on his shoulder. "I'd be willing to bet all three were done by the same people."
Hopping off his shoulder the bird quickly shifted form back to that of Qrow. "Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The area is completely deserted except a few grimm probably attracted by all the death here." The huntsmen let out a sigh before reaching into his coat and pulling out a flask. "Dammit, I knew the guy who ran the bar here."
Toguro grunted before turning to leave. "Come on, we should report this to Ozpin." He said calmly.
Qrow nodded before taking one more swig from his flask. "Right behind ya partner."
And there we go, the first chapter. Seeing as there is a surprising lack of YYH crossovers with RWBY I don't expect a ton of interest in this but I hope you all prove me wrong. Leave me a review and tell me what you all think. Until next time.
