Hey all, I know I haven't done a new story in a while, school and all but with new Fire emblem games coming out and re watching RWBY, it made me want to put the two things I loved into a story, I been throwing ideas back and forth with friends of mine and of course I want all of your opinions as they help me grow and develop this story into what it should be.
Also if anyone wants to beta for me, please do let me know
and I want something stronger then Salem that justifies the Heroes going into the RWBY realm, I don't have an idea just yet but if you do please throw your ideas this way, I promise nothing will be thrown out.
Summary: It had been a year since the Fall of Anankos. King Raphael had been revered as Valla's Kind Monarch and has a good relationship between Hoshido and Nohr. However, Peace wont last as the Rainbow Sage with help from a god, calls Raphael's Army once more to combat a new Looming threat. Greater then even Anankos.
Pairings: I wont be doing army pairings just yet (I want you all to tell me who you want paired with who) But I am still bringing in the children characters. I have a few ideas but I probably will do Seigbert x Weiss. Shigure x Blake. Let me know what you think or if you have ideas do send them in as I am open to almost anything. But be reasonable please.
"Speaking"
'Thoughts'
-Telepathy-
=Onto The Story=
It had been a long Year with Raphael, Formerly known as Corrin before his kidnapping by Nohr. Being King wasn't easy, but it was satisfying. Not only to hear his people praise him but to prosper and live happy lives. He enjoyed watching children go and play with each other, having not a care in the world and fathers and mothers working to raise their families. He of course lifted the curse so Vallans can speak of their home outside of the nation. And of course Nohrians and Hoshidans often visit the new nation, rather enjoying the scenery or their goods.
Of course there were some people not happy with the job the new king was doing with Valla, mostly being old War hawks who believe that Valla had the strength to conquer both kingdoms, and of course he let them rant and rave all they wanted but Raphael was more focused on reconstruction and re-population.
"My lord, Emissaries from Nohr are requesting entrance" said one of the many knights that stood guard outside his door. Raphael waved his hand to let them in as he yawns, he had been up for the past 24 hours negotiating trade deals and the like between the three countries and it was tiring and frustrating work, wondering how his father had done it before he. He adjusted to it, he always did, but it was still tiring work.
"Tired my lord?" He hears Kaze ask behind him, one of his few Vassals, one who had stuck by him when the others hadn't. He looks up at the Dread Fighter with a deadpan expression as if saying 'Really? Your asking me that?'. Kaze of course gives him a sheepish smile before returning back to his shadow to guard his lord. Silas of course was another Vassal of his, he was a hero class fighter and often keeping the peace in the country
The door opens and is tackled by a black and yellow blur, which he knew all too well, it was his sister Elise visiting from Nohr, she had grown a little since he had last saw her last year. She had gotten taller of course. She herself was a strategist, more a support role then anything else and it showed in her personality as she preferred helping people then anything.
"Big Brother! Its so good to see you again! How are you?" she asks looking up at her adopted brother as Raphael smiles, rubbing her hair lightly.
"I'm doing good Elise, but a little tired, politics" he said with a small chuckle as he yawns once more and pops his back. Elise huffs and peeks behind him.
"Kaze your supposed to be taking care of my big brother!" she said to the hidden ninja only to receive a laugh from said sibling. He rubbed her hair once more before leaning down and kissing her forehead.
"He is, but this all has to get done and blah blah blah politics politics politics" he said with a chuckle before Elise rolled her eyes at her brother, shoving him in the direction of his room. "Ack, Elise, I have work to do!"
"No, your headed to sleep and we can talk more tomorrow, but as a sister I have to take care of you as you take care of me". He sighed and nods, headed to sleep as he rubs his face. "Don t come out until tomorrow!" She said closing the door behind him.
"What am I gonna do with her... well while i'm here, ill try and get some sleep" he said and flops onto the bed and as soon as he did that, he began to sleep with a soft snore.
(Next Day-Unknown Location)
Raphael woke up with a start. Wondering how long he slept for he sits up to look up at the sun, but when he looked around he saw that he was no longer in his castle, but rather a large white room with only one door, and what made it more unsettling was that everyone who had ever fought with him against Anankos was here with him in the room, Ryoma, Xander, Camilla, even Elise who he had just seen the night before. Fearing they had been kidnapped, he reached for his sword, and began to shake everyone awake.
"Big brothers, get up" he said urgently as he held his glowing blade as he gulps lightly. And soon, they, and everyone else had gotten up.
"Raphael? Where are we?" Xander asks as he holds his own blade at the ready, the others doing the same as he looks at the single door. "How did whoever kidnapped us, get us all without noticing?" he asks in a more... defensive tone, wanting to keep strong for his subordinates.
"I don't know, but the thought is frightening" Ryoma said as he moves to the door, but to his surprise, it opened before he could open it himself, and in stepped the Sage they had met along their travels.
"Old Man Sage?" Raphael asks lowering his weapon and raises his eyebrows, not expecting him of all people to kidnap them, wondering a more Why then anything.
"He could be a fake, Remember we saw the sage die on the mountain!" Xander said, suspicious of the old man and takes a step towards him with his blade at the ready, but stopped when he raised his hand.
"I did die Prince Xander, but someone had brought me here to ask for assistance... you may not know it, but your world, once more, is in great peril." he said shocking everyone, they had just finished off Anankos and now were getting into swing with their normal lives, and once again, they were being thrown into another problem. "I cannot ask you to fight this problem, any of you... but I ask you hear it directly from the persons mouth who warned me" He said as he stepped aside to allow another man through, but this one was significantly younger, 20s or so if they had to guess.
"Good morning Heroes... I apologize for bringing you at such an early hour, but I wanted to make sure you were all rested and such before asking for your help... My name is Monty Oum and my world needs your help" he said with a small smile, being friendly.
Raphael nods and puts the weapon away in his holster, looking at the young man. "What troubles your World Mr. Oum?" He asks as he steps forward, Everyone was looking at the interaction with interest.
Monty closed his eyes before opening his palm, and something seemed to be drawn before coming to life in his palm, a small werewolf like creature, pitch black with a white mask and bones protruding from its arms. "The world I had created is over run with, what they call Grimm. I assume you know of the Multiverse theory?" He asks them as it was Leo who stepped forward.
"The theory that there are multiple universes and copies of said universes and the like... what does that have to do with this?" Leo asks seeming to stare at the Beowulf in his hand, tactically analyzing it.
"The world I created, the Original, poses no threat to you, but one of the many, does, as well as the rest of the multiverse." He said as he cruses the Beowulf in his hand before opening it once more and a bubble appears in the center, showing his world before it bursts. "I cannot intervene, I died myself, but I don't want to see the world I loved and created as well as the one I came from die, so i'm asking you all... will you help me?" He asks with a little pleading in his voice.
"I cannot speak for the rest of my friends... but you can count me in" Raphael says with conviction. "But what of my country and countrymen?" he asks before the old sage smiles once more.
"Don't worry, one of the Dragons will freeze time there until you return so nothing happens while your helping Monty with this world" he said holding his staff.
Raphael nods and looks towards his immediate family, his brothers and sisters. "I cannot ask you to-" he started before he was interrupted by Xander, a smile on his face.
"Like I told you when we ventured into Valla, you only need to ask, no matter what it is, well do everything in our power to help you, and if you believe this world needs your help... then I believe it needs ours once more" He said putting a hand on Raphael's shoulder as Ryoma laughs.
"Yes, just like before, you only need to ask." he said as everyone else nodded in agreement, From Azura to Saizo.
"Thank you... everyone." he said before turning to Monty once more and nods. "Were ready to wherever you wish to send us." Raphael said as Monty smiled at this as he opens a portal to the world on the far side of the wall.
"Don't worry Heroes, you'll still have access to your castle should you need to use it. But thank you... truly" He said giving a small bow and turns to leave the room.
"He was nice" Sakura said as Elise, who was standing next to her nods in affirmation as she then looks at her big brothers. "Are we ready...?" Sakura asked with a small stutter.
"Yes... Don't worry, well be alright" Raphael says before taking a step forward into the portal, and soon everyone followed, and into the forest, ready for their next big adventure, one that could spell doom for everyone.
No Pressure.
(Beacon Academy - Ozpins Office)
Headmaster Ozpin was a man of many talents, able to keep calm no matter what, a skilled hunter, very open minded among other things. He prided himself in trying to help as many people as he could so they could survive the Grimm, even if it meant throwing them into deep water with a sink or swim mentality. Of course he was very Lenient on some things, like Juane Arks transcripts or Ruby Roses age.
He knew that there was something brewing in the darkness, something that could spell doom for them all, and it worries him because no matter how hard he tried, or how hard he fought against the darkness, it kept moving ever closer to them, and he wonders if this was all for naught.
But the strangest thing occurred today.
He had felt a sense of hope he hadn't felt in a long time. He doesn't know why, or where it had come from but it was there, a spark of hope. This of course had put him in a good mood, wondering If it was a premonition or just the back of his mind saying things are getting better. In the back of his mind, he wondered if Monty had placed that sense of hope.
He reached for his cup of coffee and took it in his hand, seeming to stare out the window towards his School. Beacon Academy. Something he had swore to protect no matter what, as well as the rest of the world.
"Professor?" He hears Glynda call out to him from the door, one of his long time friends.
"Yes Glynda?" He asks politely as he stood from his chair, taking his cane, holding the mug of his coffee in front of his face as he took a small sip.
"We didn't send any teams into Emerald Forest today had we?" She asks as she seems to be looking down at a scroll, seeming confused if the look on her face was any indication as he tilts his head In confusion before shaking his head in the negative
"No, Grimm clearing day Is tomorrow, why do you ask?" he asks as he holds his cane and looks at her before she shows him the scroll, Motion sensors seeming going off, more so then usual it seems. "Increase of Grimm activity?" he asks, really doubting it was that but it was more to check it off the list then to actually confirm.
"No, in fact... this motion is more akin to teams clearing the forest... Cameras aren't working because of some kind of interference... what should we do...?" she asks looking at her friend, who seemed to be smiling behind his mug of coffee. It seems the spark of hope today wasn't just a random occurrence, someone up there had sent help, at least that's what he hoped.
"Well go meet them" he said with a smile as he puts the mug of coffee on his desk before Glynda looks at him quizzically. Wondering what had gotten into the headmaster, but trusted him enough to follow his lead as she follows him towards their destination, Emerald Forest.
(Emerald Forest)
"So this is Remnant... such a beautiful forest" Azura said with a smile, holding onto her lance as she hummed a soft tune in her head, looking around. Everyone had just gotten here without incident thankfully.
"Quite... I'd vacation here one day if Monty will let me" Takumi said with a smile, his bow in hand as he watched everyone gather their bearings, that was until he heard growls, and immediately feared the worst, remembering that kind of growl from the Faceless. "Brother, we got company!" He yelled out to his family as he pulled his bow back, aiming it to where he heard the growl from.
"Ready up!" Raphael said as he pulls out the Omega Yato, a Vanguard class as he held it at the ready as everyone else had done the same, pulling out weapons and tomes to fight the Grimm.
And that's what they had come face to face with, a rather Large amount of Grimm, seeming to be hundreds of them surrounding the group of Sixty-Eight. They were easily outnumbered 3 to 1. But it scared not a single one.
"Hold strong, these monsters shall not defeat us, we've defeated the Silent God Anankos!" Ryoma said as he held the Raijinto in his hand staring a rather hungry looking Ursa Major.
"Just like Old times hm?" Shura said with a grin as he pulled his Killer Bow back, arrow at the ready as Saizo grunts in response.
"Careful Son" Xander said as he held his blade at the ready, watching them snarl and grunt at the large group.
"Yes father" Seigbert said as he too held his sword at the ready, but unlike his father who was horse top, he was on foot with a sword in hand, a magical blade that had been crafted for him as a gift. He had called it Excalibur, after the legendary blade.
"Here they come!" Kaze said aloud as he threw a shuriken into the mask of one of the Grimm only for it to bounce off.
"Damn there's so many of them!" Takumi said as he kept having to back peddle to avoid the claws of the Beowulf on his ass. He had kept firing arrows at it and soon one between the eyes seemed to put it out of its misery, and it dispersed .
"At least we know their killable" Silas said as he blocked a strike with his shield and cleaved a head clean off with his brave sword, watching the Grimm disappear. Sakura and the other healers made sure to keep everyone still fighting, whether it be the Knights who had taken small damage or Archers who got too close to their targets, they had kept fighting.
What made them pause was that the ground was shaking, and soon, a Goliath Grimm roared at them before charging the group, crushing or shoving past fellow Grimm, even crushing one as it had every intention of running them all down.
What stopped them However, was the Mages, Nyx, Odin, Orochi and Leo had held up their books, stopping it dead in its tracks as they grunted in exertion, doing everything they can to keep the beast back and away from the main group.
"A little help would be nice here!" Leo called out to the group, and soon the Fliers, Camilla, Subaki, Hinoka and Beruka were hacking away at whatever weak spots they could attack, barely dodging the beasts tusks as it tries to get them off of it.
"We don't know how much longer wed be able to last!" Beruka said as she threw her ax into one of its eyes, blinding it in that one eye as her dragon roared and clung to the mask as she then pulled her ax out and barely dodged a horn.
"We must hold! Once their killed well make our way to the Fortress" He said referring to the building that didn't look too far from their position as he cut down another Grimm using his dragon fang to crush another.
"No holding back!" Seigbert yelled and speared the Goliath through the mask and through the head, watching it dissipate into yet again, into wisps of smoke as they all fought for their lives, and thankfully with each one killed, it made it easier and easier to fight.
"On your left!" Saizo yelled as he cuts one down that was about to strike his lord Ryoma, seeming to take his job just as seriously as he did when they had fought the Silent God Anankos.
"Missed one!" Kagero said as she stabs another through the heart, the more Grimm that came, the more injured they all got, this wide open field was a war zone, no set defensive line, just everyone for themselves as they had tried to fight back, and fight back they did as Grimm dwindled.
"Halfway there!" Azura said using her voice to inspire nearby allies to fight even harder as clangs of steel and whistles of arrows littered the area. Thankfully the Healers kept everyone healthy, making sure they all didn't fall from the attacks.
"AHHHH" Sakura yelled as she got swiped by a Ursa. Which caught the attention of Leo who rushed to the attention of his wife.
"Sakura!" He yelled as he used Brynjildr to cut him down, as he grabs her and pulls her back. She had taken a good hit if the bleeding was any indication, thankfully they had fought long and hard to cut down the number of Grimm even more and more, which allowed the two some reprieve, fortunately he had some training in staves as this allowed him to pick up hers and use it to heal the wound.
"Leo... Thank you" she murmurs and reaches up and cups his cheek, blushing at how close he was but she kisses his lips regardless of her shyness.
"Don't scare me like that" he says softly as he presses his forehead to hers.
"Hey My lord! Be careful!" Niles said as he snipes a Beowulf who had gotten way too close for comfort and trained his bow on another and fired, spearing it through the head as well.
Another 10 minutes and they had finally cut down the last grim, a lot of them were panting and sweating from the fight as the healers went around making sure everyone was OK.
"It seems you all had your work cut out for you" They heard from the edge of the forest, all turning to face the source, they saw Ozpin and Glynda standing there, though she was ready to fend them off, he seemed relaxed. "Might I ask who you all are and what your doing here?" Ozpin asks, deciding that they'd probably want to get to the point as they were no doubt tired and exhausted from the massive amount of Grimm they had just faced.
Raphael, with shaky legs, stood and walks over to them. "My name is Raphael, King of Valla. And we were sent here to assist you in defending this world from the looming darkness" he said as he walks over, Behind him were once again, Xander and Ryoma, no doubt wanting to make sure they can trust him but as well provide their input.
"Sent here...? by whom?" Ozpin asks as he had his hands on his cane, looking over the seeming small army with a critical eye, if they weren't mending themselves from the fight, they were talking among themselves or simply helping each other, as if they had been doing this for a long time, and he wouldn't be wrong.
Raphael looked at his brothers a moment who nodded, thinking it would be better to tell the whole truth and get it over with instead of lying and looking bad later down the line. "Would you believe us if we said we were sent here by a man named Monty Oum?" he asks with an even voice.
If Ozpin had been holding a coffee mug in his hand, he no doubt would have dropped it as it seems his suspicions were confirmed, not that Monty was real, because he knew that, But that the situation had been bad enough to warrant outside help it seemed, and he was no doubt glad that he had sent them, he wondered if they could have done it without their help if it was that bad. But he quickly stopped that train of thought as he had to take care of this small army which hell have to decide what to do with.
"Why don't we all head into beacon and discuss what to do with you, though I do have a few ideas" he said with a smile as they nodded, packing their things and heading back.
(Headmaster's Office)
Currently the only ones in the office were the headmaster, her assistant, Glynda, Both Nohrian and Hoshidan royal families, as well as Raphael and Azura, and currently were discussing what to do with the new forces that had arrived in Remnant.
"I think we can pair some of your teams with ours, so that way we could help each other with what ever needs to be done." Ozpin said as he once again, held the coffee mug in his hand as he watched the families discuss things back and fourth.
"We can do that, but well have to find some way to pick teams without bias, though with that look on your face I assume you already have an idea" Raphael said with a small smirk as Ozpin gave him one that matched as well.
"I do... its how I picked my teams for the semesters and no doubt you'd find it very unbiased, though i'm sure if there are issues in the lineup we can change them, such as two individuals who wont get along" he said as Xander nods in confirmation, seeing this as a good way to do things.
"So what sort of initiation did you use...?" Ryoma asked as Glynda rolled her eyes, which everyone caught, causing Ozpins smile to grow even bigger.
(Cliff-Emerald Forest)
"Good Morning children, I know I asked you all to get up rather early then you usually do" Ryoma started, Xander right beside Ozpin and Goodwitch. "Now, some of you may be thinking, we just got here, what are we doing or the like. Which is understandable. Now, were picking teams to be partnered up with Ozpins team so we can gather more information or help stop people to get our job done. Questions?"
"Just one sir, how are we picking our teams?" Kana, Raphael's child, asked as she looks down at the pad she was standing on, wondering what it was for.
"You wont, the first person you make eye contact with, will be your partner for the rest of the semester, the Headmaster used this same system with his students and its worked so far. We decided it would be a good idea to use the system ourselves." he said seeing his own son grin a little excitedly.
"So... how are we getting down t-HEEEEEREEEEE?" Asugi started but they were all launched at the same time into the forest unlike the one after the other one that Ozpin had done originally, this forced them to find their own landing strategies on the fly.
"Think they'll be fine...?" Xander asks Ryoma who laughs and nods. "Yes, they've survived worse then a fall, we raised them well" He said with a smile and looks out to the forest.
(RWBY)
"I'm telling you were getting new students! I heard it from one of the teachers, Professor port who was talking to the others" Ruby said excitedly as she seemed to bounce in place, excited at making more friends, which Yang rose an eyebrow, she was happy that Ruby was getting out of her shell more and more but she wondered why the new students were coming in a semester late, of course she just be over thinking this, mostly she was hoping that the new kids would be thrill seekers like her, more fun to go around.
"Did you get any of their names at the least?" Blake asked out of curiosity as she didn't look up from her book, but still paying attention to the conversation.
"Nope but I hear some of them are our age!" Ruby said as she takes one of the waters from the fridge and drinks some.
"Well I suppose it cant hurt to go see the ceremony and see what teams are being formed... did you at least get that?" Weiss asks as Ruby nods, finishing the water and throwing it away.
"Its going to be held in a couple of hours, I say we go see!" Ruby said as she tugs on Weiss's arm as the Yellow and Black duo looked at each other and nods, following the leader and her partner.
WHOOOOO New crossover. But yes it had taken a while to finally get the motivation to do this, mostly because I would wonder if anyone would even like this crossover much less review and favorite it. Anyway, I am having the children characters pair up with the Teams as it would be a good way to get pairings going and I am looking for team ideas and names, and as per the usual mi open to most anything so do let me know.
IDEAS: I am looking for an ultimate villain to go with this story, something worse then Salem, and yes you can pull ideas from other fandoms but if you suggest them, let me know the source material as I don't like not giving credit to where credit is due.
Pairings: I am pretty sure I am gonna do Seigbert and Weiss, knight and shining armor and all that, Maybe Shigure and Blake but again, let me know what you guys think and if you have an even better idea, tell me and I promise ill let you know what I think.
Please don't flame this story as I will 100 percent ignore them, I don't like them and their not constructive criticism, but do let me know what you all thing, REVIEWS KEEP ME PUMPING CHAPTERS OUT. I know that sounds like extortion but it isnt, the more I see people enjoy my stories, the more I have motivation to writing these. So PLEASE Review.
Current Villians: Now I need some ideas what to do with Cinder, Emerald and Mercury, I actually like them a lot and I don't want to have them killed, so please, again, send in some of your ideas and ill get back to you on them.
