"All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The real world only gives the tools needed to become who we are today."

(Mountain Glenn - RWBY Volume 2 Soundtrack)

The sky was bathed in a brilliant gold as the morning sun rose over the horizon, bringing with it warmth and light. But unlike everywhere else, the darkness does not fade away with the night, this area is Mountain Glenn. A settlement for the creatures said to bring about mankind's destruction, the Creatures of Grimm.

All around the formation lay monsters of different types, Beowolves stalking prey, Nevermores sailing through the skies, and even mighty Goliaths trudging through the trees. To many on Remnant, this is the embodiment of hell, evidenced by the ruins of what was once Vale's attempt of expanding its kingdom.

(Music: 1:52)

This doesn't stop a boy in his mid-teens from trudging towards the mountain, wearing a red shirt with grey sleeves that are adorned with red cross patterns, and black track pants with red stripes. He had spiked red hair, resembling the appearance of dragon horns as well as having attentive dark red eyes. To top it off, a black wing symbol with a red draconic eye is displayed on his shirt.

He pulled out a damaged, but functional, Scroll and turned it on. When the Scroll's lock screen flashed on, an image showed up that revealed his name, Crimson.

The device beeped as it displayed a "No Service" message, Crimson merely sighed.

(Music Abrupt Stop)

He calmly closed his eyes, turned it off, and slammed it into the nearest boulder. The Scroll instantly turned back on with full bars.

(RWBY – Sacrifice)

He continued walking while looking at recent Newscasts, though the only ones worth reading were about a train robbery and a teenage girl stopping a gang of thugs. Eventually he reached a cave near the midsection of the mountain, inside were pieces of clothing, scraps of metal, and a burnt out fire pit. As Crimson was getting ready to lie down and rest, he heard a loud screech.

Sensing danger, he slowly left the cave and walked to where he heard the sound, making sure to check his surroundings. There was nothing to be found until he looked up. Three dark shapes were descending at a rapid pace from the sky towards Crimson. When they slowed to a stop they were revealed to be Griffons. To be more precise, two basic 6 footers and one 20 foot Alpha.

Crimson was curious, Griffons weren't normally seen this far West from Mantle. But he had no time to ponder as the Alpha let out a deathly cry. This triggered the other two beasts to charge towards Crimson but he remained completely still with a deathly calm expression on his face before giving himself a smirk.

(Music – 0:58)

At the last second, Crimson jumped and used the Grimm in front of him as a springboard. As the Griffon turned its head to look at it's missed prey, it collided with the second Griffon. While they were tumbling over the ground, Crimson landed gracefully. He turned and pulled two cylinders from his sleeves which connected and unfolded into a black and silver scythe.

(AN: Deviantart Page Name, RWBY OC Weapon: Grimmlock)

The Alpha Griffon roared in anger as it decided to do the job itself. Crimson stuck his scythe into a nearby boulder and swung it around as a club, breaking on contact with the demon's head as it stumbled off the cliff.

After seeing its leader injured, one of the Griffons took to the skies and attempted to dive bomb Crimson while his back was turned away. Before it had a chance to react, Crimson spun around and slashed with his scythe. This resulted in the Grimm having a separated upper and lower torso, as well as Crimson smirking at the second Griffon. With its companion already dead, it flew into the air for an aerial advantage. Despite his opponent being out of his reach, Crimson calmly reversed the grip on his weapon.

From his pocket, he pulled out a red Dust crystal and inserted it into one of several slots on the bottom of his scythe's staff. This resulted in the blades to be folded back and the spike to open up and revealing an open hole, also the wing symbol displayed on the top of the scythe shone an ominous red.

While the Griffon was curiously staring, a fire ball was launched out the hole, blasting it into a rock wall only without its head and most of its chest. As Crimson was about to relax himself, the Alpha flew back up from behind and tackled him into the air.

(Music – 1:37)

In surprise, the only thing Crimson could do was flip around the Grimm and hold onto it's back as they ascended. By the time he could regain his composure, they were reaching the clouds. Crimson did the only thing he could think of, use his scythe to slice off the Griffon's wings. This resulted in both of them falling at an incredibly fast rate.

Crimson gave a determined look as he pulled out 4 more Dust crystals and loaded them into the scythe, his silhouette appeared in front of the shattered moon. His weapon transitioned into it's cannon mode as he aimed towards the sky and fired, causing him to not only increase his speed of descent, but also tackling the Griffon below him, making sure to avoid reach of it's sharp beak and flailing talons as they were both falling through the air.

He fired towards the sky one after another, increasing their speed until he only had one shot left. As they were nearing the ground, Crimson pointed his weapon at the Grimm and emptied his ammo. Recoiling him back into the air and launching the Alpha Grimm into the ground. Crimson landed back on the ground with his back towards the cliff as an explosion was heard down below.

(Music End – 2:08)

After he put away his weapon, the sound of clapping came to his ears. As he turned towards the sound, an old man wearing a green suit and holding a cane walked towards him.

He uttered one question, "Crimson Smau, I presume?"
