You guys requested it, and I'm delivering it! But just know that this story might not get updated as often as some of my other stories that I'm working on. Hope you don't mind? But in exchange for that, I have plans for each chapter to be 10,000 words long including author's notes. Without further Ado, ON TO THE STORY, SHALL WE!
*I do not own RWBY, Bakugan Battle Brawlers, Ben 10, Star Wars, Transformers, Mega Man, Zoids, Dragon Ball Super or any other franchise I decide to add into this story!*
A God and Goddess are Born in Fire and Darkness!
The sound of gunshots rang through the arena as blood burst out from fresh bullet wounds on Jaune Arc and Yang Xiao Long. Their eyes were wide and their bodies wracked with pain as they fell to the ground with blood also leaking from their mouths. All of the spectators, even Emerald Sustrai and Mercury Black, could only watch in horror as General Ironwood lowered his still smoking revolver with a malevolent smirk on his face.
In his mind, he had just rid the world of another possible threat to Atlas's superiority, as well as any competition for Glynda's affections. And that was reason enough for him to shoot two of Beacon's most promising students with specially made Aura Piercing/Negating rounds.
As Jaune looked up at Ironwood from the ground, blood pooling underneath himself and Yang, he used his last breath to curse out the general.
"Fuck… You…!"
With a final sigh, the light left Jaune's eyes as his body went limp. Taking shaky steps and collapsing to her knees next to her sister and first friend at Beacon, Ruby couldn't stop the tears from flowing out of her eyes.
"No…! No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" she screamed.
"Ruby…?"
The hooded girl looked up to see the concerned and slightly sorrowful eyes of her friend, Penny. The robot girl looked especially concerned because of what the General did.
"What is the matter, Ruby?" Penny asked.
Ruby looked back at the bodies of her sister and friend and began to sob anew.
"Jaune and Yang... They're dead, Penny!" sobbed Ruby.
Rushing onto the scene, Glynda shoved Ironwood out of the way and removed the bullets from her students' bodies while using her semblance to try and hold the wounds shut and stop the bleeding. She did this while trying to resuscitate them, but it was a losing battle.
"CHILDREN, SPEAK TO ME! PLEASE, STAY ALIVE!" begged a crying Glynda.
As she administered external heart massage, she thought back to the bright and innocent young boy that she used to babysit all those years ago. How much his smile always seemed to brighten her day back then, and how much she missed him calling her 'Miss Glynn' like the old days. Even Yang had somehow wormed her way into her heart, and she didn't want to lose either of them.
"NO, YOU CAN'T DIE! YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO DIE, DO YOU UNDERSTAND!? OH, DON'T YOU GIVE UP ON ME! JAUNE?! YANG?! ANSWER ME! Please…?"
She only stopped when she felt a hand on her shoulder, and looked up to see Ozpin looking at her with heavy amounts of sorrow and regret in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Glynda. But it's too late. They're taking their eternal rest now." Ozpin said regretfully.
Glynda stared at the two rapidly paling bodies of her two students, then stared at her own trembling hands. They were stained with the blood of her students. Students that she had failed to save from a madman like James Ironwood. A man who was consumed by his own greed, jealousy and flawed sense of justice.
Knowing that she couldn't do anything, Glynda did the only respectable thing she could do for her dead/dying students. She placed her hands over their eyes and gently closed them. She was certain that the least they could look forward to was awakening in the afterlife without having raisins for eyes.
It all became too much for her to handle as she collapsed onto the corpse of the child she used to babysit, hoping and praying that this was all just a nightmare and that she would wake up to both Jaune and Yang still being alive. She even wanted to hear Jaune call her 'Miss Glynn' again, or even for Yang to make one of her stupid puns to show her that this isn't real.
Ruby hugged her dead sister and cried her heart out as she didn't want to believe it. Another member of her family is dead. And there's nothing she can do to bring them back!
"Rubble… Sweetie, come here…" Qrow said as he tried to hug his remaining niece.
"NO!" Ruby practically screamed.
She absolutely REFUSED to be separated from her sister, even in death.
Blake and Weiss along with the rest of team JNPR walked up to their friends' corpses, tears leaking from all of their eyes. Blake removed her bow, revealing her black cat ears to the world, as she bowed her head and prayed to Monty Oum that her friends would have a happy afterlife. Weiss silently berated herself as she cried, hating herself for being so stuck up and prideful that she never gave a guy as great as Jaune a chance. And now, it's too late! He's gone!
Nora and Ren didn't say anything. They just joined Blake in her silent prayer while Pyrrha seemed frozen with tears falling from her own eyes.
'I… I never even got to… tell him how much I love him…!' Pyrrha thought in sadness.
Every one of the spectators bowed their heads in respect as they wished the departed a long and happy afterlife in paradise. And many of the people in Vale, who had been calling for Yang's blood just moments ago, felt like the lowest scum on the planet. Now they see that they had just condemned an innocent girl and an innocent boy to an untimely death.
But Ironwood just scoffed at the sappyness of the situation.
"Come now, I'm sure they're in a better place." Ironwood scoffed.
Then he laughed insanely as he let his true intentions shine through.
"Oh, who am I kidding, the brats are probably in hell!" laughed Ironwood.
"How can you SAY such atrocities?!" Nora demanded, tears still falling from her eyes..
Ironwood just grinned and turned to walk away as he answered the hammer wielding girl's question. The answer was one that no one liked.
"It's simple, kid. Those two were getting too strong and were becoming a threat to the superiority of Atlas. And I noticed that Glynda was giving the Arc boy the same kind of looks someone would give to the person they love romantically, and knew that he was an obstacle for her affections. So I figured, why not kill two birds with one stone?" Ironwood explained.
Everyone's eyes widened in horror at what Ironwood had just said. Even the Atlesian Knights under his command were looking at the man like he'd just told them that they were going to murder babies!
Within Nora's head, three of her alternate personas, Niel De Nora Valkyrie, Senator Nora Amidala and Jedi Knight Valkyrie, were all looking at the man through Nora's eyes with looks of morbid disbelief.
"That's the stupidest, most hypocritical thing I've ever heard!" Niel De Nora Valkyrie said.
Back in the outside world, it seems as though time has slowed to a standstill as several beings materialized in a light that was almost holy. There were five individuals in all, and each of them looked different from the rest.
The first was a woman with long flowing blonde hair, green eyes and porcelain skin. She wore a white robe and had eight pairs of white feathered wings on her back. She seemed to radiate an aura of life and light.
The next was a man wearing a dark grey yukata. He had sickly purple skin, long shaggy white hair that seemed to spike, and his teeth, eyes and grin seemed to resemble that of a Japanese Hanya mask. His nails were more like claws and were painted red with the blood of what might've been his past victims. Held in his teeth was a ceremonial dagger like the ones japanese samurai and martial artists used if they had lost they honor and were going to commit seppuku to restore said honor.
Next, there was a white creature with several pink accents here and there. It had a feminine build, so we can guess that it's a female, and she looked like a wyvern from the many myths and lores of olden times.
The fourth person looked to be about six inches tall and looked more like a humanoid frog with bulbous green eyes, a moustache, grey skin and he seemed to wear a mix of armor and aztec battle garb. Behind him was a device that looked like a gauntlet that went up to half the user's arm. The device had a circular dial with an hourglass mark in the center, and two buttons next to the dial.
And finally, there was a large metal man who looked like he had transformed from some form of vehicle. He had several parts of a Peterbuilt Semi truck on his body, but his head and face looked demented and evil. And the big yellow hole in his chest didn't make him look any less threatening.
But the one thing all of them had in common was that they were looking at the two dying children with sorrow in their eyes.
"Such a shame what has happened to those who are to become our champions." said the metal man.
"Indeed it is, Galvatron. But that is why we arrived when we did. We must give them these new weapons and powers to not only keep them alive, but to restore balance to this world!" said the frog man.
The woman looked to the man with the knife in his mouth and nodded. Seeming to grin even wider at the silent message he'd received, the man held his hand over the two dying children and began to focus two different powers into them. For Jaune, he used the life giving holy energy of the white fires of heaven. But for Yang, he used the very darkness that arrives when a life is taken from someone. Be it from natural causes like old age or disease, or when it is forcibly snuffed by a murderer or in a war.
As the energies were absorbed into the children, their bodies began to glow with an ethereal energy. And this ethereal energy was not only bringing them back to life, but it was also healing their wounds and restoring their energy.
Jaune and Yang groaned as their felt their bodies changing and becoming stronger. So much so, that it seemed like anything could go wrong. Suddenly, the elemental powers that were being focused into the two began to condense into specific places on their bodies. For Jaune, it was the center of his chest. In Yang's case, the darkness condensed on her right shoulder.
The burning flames of holy light that continued to pool into Jaune's dying body soon were absorbed completely into the boy. And materializing over the entry point of the fire was a diamond shaped jewel that seemed to be made from the darkest of fire rubies.
Whereas with Yang, the darkness was fully integrated into her system: healing her. Making her strong again. When the absorption was complete, a protective barrier appeared on her right shoulder, taking the form of a black pearl of sorts. It's appearance made it seem like it naturally grew out of her flesh.
Once both children were sufficiently healed, they groaned and began to open their eyes.
"Oh, my aching head… What happened?" Jaune asked as his blurry vision tried to return to focus.
"I don't know, Jaune… But I do remember being shot in the chest…" Yang began.
That caused the children to bolt up faster than they thought possible. They suddenly remembered everything! Yang's fight against Mercury and Emerald… how she was framed… Jaune standing up for her (Which caused her heart to flutter)... the frickin' Dust blasts… the pain in their chests… bleeding out on the ground… and… AND…
"Are we dead…?" Yang asked fearfully.
A feminine laugh caught their attention as the eight winged woman knelt before them. Her smile just radiated a motherly warmth that just made both of them calm down enough to stop their mental breakdown.
"No, my children. You are not dead, but you came pretty close to it." she said. "Ah, but where are my manners? I am Kami, the Goddess of Life and Light. And I have selected you both for a very important role, Jaune Arc and Yang Xiao Long."
"Um, not to sound rude or anything, Lady Kami, but… Why choose me for something like this? Yang I can understand, I mean, look at her! She's beautiful, caring, strong, a great fighter…" Jaune asked while listing off Yang's best qualities.
An action that caused the blonde girl to blush an intense shade of scarlet in response.
"But me? I'm no one special! I talk a big game, I ACT all confident and worry free, but I can't fight, I can't sing, I have HORRIBLE dating strategies… Heck, I didn't even know how to LAND during Beacon's initiation! Not to mention I didn't even get accepted into Beacon through honest transcripts! I FAKED MY WAY INTO A HUNTSMAN ACADEMY, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!"
Yang frowned and looked at Jaune with an unreadable expression. She hated that he thought so little of himself. He didn't seem to have any of the confidence he always displays when they're at Beacon.
Is he… letting his TRUE SELF shine through, perhaps?
"While it is true that you have had your own share of shortcomings," said a male voice that sounded deep and metallic.
Jaune and Yang looked up and recoiled back in shock at the sight of Galvatron.
"SONNUVA BITCH!" Yang cursed, falling to the ground.
"WHOA, JE-ZUS!" yelped Jaune.
"No, actually. Just Galvatron." said the mech. "Anyway, you have a lot more going for you than you may think, Arc. You have one of the brightest minds this world has seen in at least six generations. Not to mention your ironclad will and drive to become stronger and willingness to better yourself. But most importantly, you have one of the purest hearts that has ever been seen in this day and age!"
The humanoid frog from before stepped up, prompting Yang and Jaune to kneel down to get a better look at him. And maybe hear him better.
"Indeed. Your willingness to protect humans and Faunus alike from the Grimm shows that you care not for difference of race or ethnicity, and will readily charge into battle if it means protecting the weak and innocent. And for that reason, we have come to offer you all some gifts to aide you in the coming battles." said the frog man. "My name is Azmuth, by the way."
The Wyvern flew up to the two shocked children and rubbed her muzzle against them affectionately as it began speaking in a telepathic manner.
"You see, Kami-sama and Yami-sama wish to train you to become Remnant's newest God and Goddess in the literal sense of the words. But to do that, you need a serious boost in power and arsenal. And so, I grant you both with a transformation. You will both be able to turn into a Bakugan of the elements you have been blessed with. For you, Jaune Arc, you shall be able to turn into a Pyrus Helix Dragonoid: a Bakugan that rules over the skies and smites its foes with rains of burning fire. And you, Yang Xiao Long, shall have the ability to transform into the Darkus Bakugan known as Dharaknoid: a Draconic embodiment of darkness that can only be tamed by those of pure and righteous hearts." said the creature. "You may call me Wavern: the Goddess of the Bakugan and holder of the Infinity Core of Vestroia."
Two beams of red and purplish black light erupted from Wavern's eyes and shot straight into Jaune and Yang's hearts. But rather than feeling pain like they expected to feel, they instead were greeted to a pleasant warmth in their hearts. Kind of like getting a hug from your mother.
Galvatron then stepped up and transformed his pointer fingers into a pair of syringes. One held red blood, the other an odd purple blood.
"My gift is something that shall further aid you in combat. It is the blood of two of the strongest fighters in history. The red blood is meant for Jaune. It contains the DNA of a Saiyan known as Son Goku. With it, you shall learn all of Goku's powers and abilities and will also gain his prowess and ferocity in the martial arts. The purple blood is meant for Yang. This DNA belongs to Freeza, an Arcosian that had enough power to wipe out entire planets with but the flick of his finger! With his DNA integrated into your own, you too shall gain his knowledge, skills and powers." Galvatron explained.
Both teens just groaned and rolled up their sleeves as a way to say 'get it over with!'. They both absolutely HATED needles with a passion! But at least those end. Not Popo, though. Popo never ends. He never eeeeeeennnnnnnddddss!
...Okay, now I KNOW I've been watching way too much Dragon Ball TFS!
But fortunately for them, the process was quick and… actually… relatively painless. They half expected there to be excruciating pain after the injection process! Guess they were wrong.
"The DNA has yet to integrate into your own. Once you are brought back through the Ritual of Divine Right, the DNA and all of its power will be grafted to your own and become yours!" Galvatron explained once more.
"I suppose it's my turn now." Azmuth said. "What I have for you both is technology from my home planet, Galvan MK II. For you, Jaune, I am gifting you with this device that will allow you to become several different aliens from my universe. It's called the Ultimatrix, and it is a sister device to my own creation, the Omnitrix."
Jaune raised an eyebrow at Azmuth's words.
"What do you mean, sister device to YOUR creation?" Jaune asked. "If you didn't make the Ultimatrix, then who did?"
"It was created by a former colleague of mine. A fellow Galvan by the name of Albedo who deemed the current wearer of my Omnitrix, a boy named Ben Tennyson, to be unworthy of the Omnitrix. So he created a copy of my Omnitrix in order to try and take back the original. But there were repercussions to his plan. By putting on his fake Omnitrix when the original was still set to 'Human' for the default DNA, it trapped him in a copy of Ben Tennyson's body. I could go on and on through the events leading up to Albedo's creation of the Ultimatrix, but that would take all day. So in summary, Albedo created the Ultimatrix mainly as a means of restoring his own Galvan form. But Ben Tennyson managed to take the Ultimatrix from him after destroying the Omnitrix to keep an evil tyrant named Vilgax from getting his hands on it." Azmuth explained. "I then took the Ultimatrix from Ben after creating my perfected version of the Omnitrix and gave that Omnitrix to Ben. And that leads up to where we are now."
Azmuth snapped his fingers and in a flash of light, the Ultimatrix was now on Jaune's right arm. It beeped a few times before it started glowing red again. But more of a darker red, like the color of red flames rather than that ridiculously bright red that Albedo had it set to.
Jaune looked at the Ultimatrix and found that it seemed to fit perfectly. Almost like it was made for him.
"I have a question about the Ultimatrix. Why is it called the 'Ultimatrix' in the first place? Shouldn't it still be called an Omnitrix?" Yang asked.
Azmuth smiled at the girl. She may act like a punch happy party girl, but Yang is actually very smart and can ask such good questions when she wants to. Despite not being a straight 'A' student.
"I will say this. Albedo was a sick, twisted and highly vain Galvan, but his own intellect was staggering! When creating the Ultimatrix, Albedo designed it with the ability to evolve his alien transformations to a form that is more suited to battle. The form changes can sometimes be subtle, and they can also be drastic. But all of them are unbelievably powerful!" Azmuth explained. "There was an incident where the Ultimate Forms that Ben had unlocked became sentient and were released from the Ultimatrix. I have since fixed that flaw so that any Ultimates generated by Jaune now will merely be an extension of himself."
But it would seem as though things weren't over quite yet. Azmuth still had something for Yang.
"And for you, Yang, I present you with this device that was created by a mad scientist known as Doctor Psychobos." Azmuth said as a new device materialized next to him. "It's called the Nemetrix."
The Nemetrix is shaped like a hexagon. It is colored red and silver. The symbol looks like an open mouth with sharp teeth. It is used like a collar rather than a wristwatch.
"Unlike the Omnitrix and the Ultimatrix, the Nemetrix is designed to turn the wearer into predatory creatures. Now under normal circumstances, the biofeedback would destroy the mind of a sapient life form. However, I have found a way around that." Azmuth explained as he took out a headpiece that looked similar to the Scouters used by Freeza and his men in Dragon Ball Z. "By grafting the Nemetrix to this new matrix body, it will not only slowly adapt your body to handle the biofeedback, but it will also let you see which predator it is you're choosing."
Yang and Jaune nodded, filing this information away. If they were going to live up to the expectations of gods, then they'd need to pay close attention and become as strong as they possibly can.
Azmuth took the Nemetrix core out of the original casing and placed it into the new matrix body. It beeped a flashed a few times to signal that the integration was complete and handed it to Yang. Hesitantly, the girl took the new Nemetrix and began to put it on. Moving her hair away from her ear, Yang carefully placed it onto her left ear and felt the Nemetrix clamp firmly yet gently in place so as to not cause discomfort.
A bright red lense appeared over Yang's eye and the Nemetrix beeped to signal that it had finished keying itself to her DNA.
"How does it feel, Yang? Any discomfort or impairment in vision?" Azmuth asked.
"Nope! It fits perfectly and I can see just fine." Yang replied.
She and Jaune then stood up and bowed to the people in front of them. A sign of respect and humbling one's self in some cultures.
"Thank you all for doing this. Your generosity is deeply appreciated." Jaune said.
"Think nothing of it, Jaune. But now, it's time for you both to awaken and lay waste to your enemies as the God of Fire, Life and Destruction, and the Goddess of Darkness, Technology and Death! So begins the Ritual of Divine Right!" Yami declared.
Kami and Yami stood in front of their two charges and placed a hand on each of their new Elemental Cores. Glowing with holy energy, the two Japanese deities began chanting in an ancient language as they began to awaken their two new champions' godly powers.
*Hi to hikarikagayaku kagayaki no aru hikari, yami ga ochite sakeru. Shinda mono kara tachiagari, hito no tamashī o seigi no shibito de mitashi nasai. Kon'ya,-en to yami no chanpion o mezasu!*
With a bright flash of red and purplish black light, our two protagonists cried out with power as their physical bodies began to change and rise up from the brink of death. Their power rose beyond the limits of normal huntsmen and into the realm of legend! Legends that many fear! For this is the beginning of the creation of two new deities! Something that has not been done in millennia!
Oh man, Ironwood is in some deep shit now!
*To Be Continued…*
And there's chapter number one for y'all! I hope you all like it, I wasn't sure if this idea would work or not. And if you have any suggestions for Jaune's harem, let me know. Just know that Yang, Glynda, Penny and Pyrrha are already in it. So, I'll see you all in my next chapter!
Translation (Used Google Translate): Fire and Light of brightest heart, darkness falls and rips apart. Rise up now from what was dead, and fill men's souls with righteous dread! AWAKEN NOW, CHAMPIONS OF FIRE AND DARKNESS!
