Ghost x Omega: The Inner Power
Chapter 1: An Unknown Infestation
[Remnant]
It's only been a few days since the event of the Grimm entering Vale and causing havoc. Due to that, many people lost their homes, stores, businesses, and of course lives. Many people were killed in that attack cause no one was planned for it. Everyone was just lucky a few students were able to stop it.
Sitting out near the docks was one such student, a young hunter, with dirty blonde hair,, wearing a black hoodie, red shirt underneath, dark blue pants and black boots. His face, looked foreign but noticeable from other people, but with bright blue eyes, this was none other than Cody Aldrich, Kamen Rider Ghost and the self proclaimed Ghost Of Remnant.
The young rider sighed as he stared out at the sun rising. Due to the attack, as well as funeral for the people who lost their lives, school was out for awhile, and the Vytal Festival was put on hold for now. Though while a sad note for some, others were glad as they got to practice a bit more, as for Cody, he's just trying to think over what the Ganma and the White Fang are planning?
He reached his hand out to the sun before clenching his hand, acting as if he had to sun in his hand before he lowered his arm. Ever since the Breach, he and his older, adoptive brother gained a new ally to the group. 'Former' prince Alan of the Ganma, well no longer a Ganma. He was now human who goes by the title Kamen Rider Necrom. He and Alan were enemies at first, he hated the Ganma Prince knowing that he didn't do anything to stop the torture that his brother went through for ten years.
His big brother was Axel Saber. Son and heir to the Saber Family bloodline, wielder of the legendary sword known to be the enemy to all of Grimm, the Excalibur. He also has a special Semblance that is only known for those of the Saber family, Light; producing weapons made from light. Not to mention, he is also known as Kamen Rider Specter, also known as the Blue Devil of Remnant, feared to every known criminal and member of the White Fang. Why does his brother have a different last name? Well, his brother was adopted by Cody's parents and they also adopted his sister, Luna Saber who holds a special semblance that can heal the most grievous wounds. She was considered a 'Templar Child' since there were rare occurrences of a Saber giving birth to two kids and the sign that she was is the lock of gold hair that stands out.
Though, this was the mead of them, as they attended Beacon Academy, the school for Hunters and Huntresses to train and fight Grimm. And while Axel was with the team known as JNPR, lead by Jaune Arc with Pyrrha Nikos, Nora Valkyrie, and Lie Ren.
Cody was with another team, known as RWBY, lead by Ruby Rose, with Weiss Schnee who is Axel's girlfriend, Blake Belladonna, and of course….. "Hey Cody!" The young rider turning around to see a blonde huntress, walking to him with a smile on her face, this was Cody's girlfriend, Yang Xiao Long.
Cody smiled softly at her, "Hey Yang…" He answered back, though softly.
"Something wrong?" She asked, sitting down next to him. She looked at him for a moment before noticing what was wrong. "Still feeling down from what happened…?"
"Heh…. you can read me like a book…" He chuckled softly, "But… yeah… How can't I be? So many lives… lost…" He sighed. "I wish we found that place sooner and stopped them… Then maybe… so many would be around ya know?"
"I was thinking the same thing when that day happened…" She sighed. "Everyone was sad, feeling depressed and all… even for us to see how Alan was in front of us."
Cody couldn't forget that. Alan, someone who was ruthless, cold, even hating people, experienced the feeling of tears, sadness, pain, and depression for the first time since he became human again. "Well…. While it may take time to heal… I know that Ruby is on board with helping him." He smiled.
"But…" The young hunter turned to the blonde huntress, "My question is.. What are you doing here? I thought you were training with Yusuke?" He asked a slight smirk on his face.
"Hmm…. I was… But, I think, spending time with my man…" He leaned in, kissing his cheek, "Is better for us and our health. So!" She grabbed him arm and helped him to his feet, "I think we should go on a date."
"A date?"
"Yeah," Yang smiled. "Come on, Cody. Don't you want to go on a date with me?"
Cody chuckled, rubbing the back of his head before he looked at Yang. "Sure why not." He replied. Yang wrapped her arm around his neck as the two started to head off, "Geez… what has gotten you in such a bright mood?" He asked her, looking up at the blonde huntress who somewhat was taller than him.
"Being with you Cody, what do you think?" She teased before the two walk to the bullhead to make their way to Vale to start their date together.
In the edge of the town of Vale lied a pathway that had arched trees with the sunlight barely passing through. To some it's an ordinary forest but in reality no Grimm ever dares to take a step to that small area or path for good reasons. Deep within was a mansion with the gates showing a symbol of a sword, with angel wings and what seems to be a full moon behind it, showing the family symbol of the legendary group of members known as the Sabers, generations upon generations of Huntresses and Huntsmen known to Remnant.
Inside the mansion, some rooms were occupied. In one room was a young man who was sleeping quietly while wearing a black shirt and dark blue pajama pants. The young man was a year older than Cody, around 18 years of age, has black hair that is somewhat messy yet sleek look to it. His face almost resembled Kirito from SAO 2 but from New ALO. This was Axel Saber and he was in peace upon the sleep he was experiencing.
Though, the door into the room opened slightly, a figure sneaking in before sitting next to Axel on the edge of the bed. The figure giggled softly, before leaning in and planting a kiss on his forehead, "Wake up Axel…." The figure said.
He slowly opened his eyes, his eyes blurry from the tired sleep at first until it cleared, revealing dark blue eyes as he saw who was in his room. Standing there was none other than Weiss Schnee, smiling down at him as she wraps her arms around him. "About time you woke up…." she said softly.
He smiled softly as he sat up while Weiss sat by the edge of the bed. "Morning Weiss," He smiled before yawning. The reason for his small amount of sleep, he was the Blue Devil of Remnant.
"Still, glad to see you finally seeing me… I've felt like you've been avoiding me for awhile." She questioned him, her arms crossed.
He mentally flinched. He was still feeling guilty for a good reason, he cheated on Weiss when he 'slept' with Cinder. Ever since that day, the guilt was consuming him more and more that he often avoids Weiss. "I-I've… just had some matters to attend to…." He said to her, and now lying was beginning to happen and he hated every bit of it. He wanted to tell… but for some reason, he just didn't have the heart yet. One thing about the Sabers, they should never lie. He was disowning the code his family follows
"Matters? Hmm…. Like Ganma or the other riders?" She asked.
"I-It was some Ganma…."
Weiss looked at him for a moment before nodding, "Alright." She acknowledged him. The rider giving a quick sigh before he felt her arms wrap around his, "So! Wanna head to that cake shop?" She smiled to him.
He looked at her, seeing her lovely smile in which he nodded. "Sure, just let me get myself ready." He replied as he got out of bed. "Can you wait for me at the living room?"
"Sure," She kissed his cheek before leaving his room, making her way to the living room. When she was gone from his sight, he lowered his head as his hands clenched knowing that he hated lying, it was hurting him. He took deep breaths before he felt calm. He changed into his usual style of clothes which was a black jacket that was over a blue shirt and black pants and shoes. He then grabbed a necklace that had the family crest and put it over his neck. Just as he was about to leave the room, his scroll rang in which he digged through his pocket before he got it out to see he received a message.
The message though was from Luna, showing a pic of her, with Ruby, Nora and Alan at the ice cream store, having a good time. Though the message said, 'Wish you could be here, brother.' Cause Weiss wasn't the only one he was avoiding. He was worried what Luna would think he if told her what happened.
He noticed Alan, who was his student despite both of them being the same age, was smiling. He knew that Ruby was helping the former prince and was glad to see him open up more to normal people. Though it was strange to see Ruby act flustered sometimes when Alan talks to her.
But for now, that would have to wait, as the young hunter stood up and walked out. But after he and Weiss left, something in his room began to glow. Nearby the stand was none other than the Eyecon of Da Vinci. Something he won after saving his brother and defeating the Ganma that used his power. He planned on finding a way to purify it but it was taking a while. It glowed softly before shining and flying off.
Meanwhile, out near the Ruins of The Emerald Forest, was a small group of Ganma. Seems they were mining and taking whatever they can find in the old tomb of OOO and where the Scorpion Greeed was resting before destroyed by OOO and Axel. Inside one of them was that of the Commander Ganma, researching this place and finding anything useful. As they continue to mine, the commander noticing something in the distance, a glowing orb that was flying towards the small group.
It watched carefully, making sure it wasn't an intruder until it saw the orb landing in front of him. He knelt down to look at it and saw a familiar symbol. "Oi! The Da Vinci Eyecon has returned!" It shouted. But oddly enough, the Eyecon flew around before entering the Ganma. It groaned in pain for once, kneeling down before it sparks and explosion erupts from it. The Ganma commander destroyed, and now replaced by the Da Vinci Ganma, the Ganma that was destroyed by W and Specter.
"Ahh…. Finally…" It sighed, stretching slightly, "It took awhile, but I finally revived… Heh, guess that Rider was too weak to destroy me." Da Vinci then turned to the gathering of the Ganma that followed the commander.
"Da Vinci… You were suppose to have been truly gone after the two Riders destroyed the machine." One of the grunts said.
"Heh, it'll take a lot more than those two to kill me… Now… Status report on everything since my coma." It commanded.
The grunts looked at each other before looking at Da Vinci Ganma and began to inform them what has happened. From Adel being crowned king all the way to the Breach along with the Gammaraizer making itself known during the Breach.
"I see... Alan has joined the cursed Ghost Riders… even one of our gods making itself known…" He noted. "So what are you all mining for?"
"U-Um well… Sides from the ore and stuff here…" They then hold up a huge load of Cell Medals. "Igor says, he wants to study them…. They contain energy that is capable to create minions from what Igor told us."
Da Vinci Ganma observed the Cell Medals they collected, wondering what else they can do other than create minions. "Energy you say…?" He repeated.
"Y-Yes…. If used in the right way, they just have as much potent energy or maybe even more so than Dust. Almost limitless."
Da Vinci approached the Cell Medals as a grin formed. "I say we use it for something much more useful." He announced. "We are gonna need some Lightning and Gravity type Dust."
"But…. what about Igor and Cinder?" One of the grunts asked before Da Vinci quickly erased them, leaving no Eyecon trace left.
"Forget them…. They didn't try to find a way to revive me….. Such a feat from the most powerful Ganma ever? They're lucky I don't go after them…" Da Vinci frowned before looking at the other Ganma grunts. "Any of you have a problem?"
All of the other Ganma shook their head, understanding his power and what would happen if they disobey him or make him angry, knowing full well that telling Igor or Cinder is worse than death.
"Good now go get the Dust we need."
(Insert Op - Nanatsu No Taizai Opening 2 - NateWantstoBattle Ver.)
Oh, Woah! Oh, oh, oh~, The pain and the pleasure, All come together, There is no reason why.
The song starts off as it shows, The Ore Eyecon, and the Amazon Armband before it shifts to Cody and Enrique standing there, facing each other.
Oh, Woah! Oh, oh, oh~, The pain and the pleasure, All come together, There is no reason why.
A sudden strike of lighting then shows them in their Rider forms, still staring at one another as Yang and Leone watch from a distance, both with worried looks.
Don't play that!
Another strike of lighting then shows the two riders charging at one another before Cody's weapon clashed against Enrique's fins, sparks casting off as it shows the title card.
I got my demons, They don't know, I'm fierce enough to let them go.
We then see Cody standing with Yang, over looking Vale one moment, and in the next, a ruined city of Vale, overrun by Grimm.
It's like a fire, a strangle-hold I wish I was invincible.
It then cuts to Enrique and Leone in the Kingdom of their world, and in another moment, the entire kingdom and its people were being slaughtered by several Amazon's as they feast on the humans that live there.
Hello desire, you're my old friend, But I don't need you here again.
It then cuts to Axel, trying to tell Weiss what happened, only for darkness to envelop him, as the smoldering eyes of Cinder wrap her arms around him, a devious grin escaping her lips.
Just take a look, go back inside, I'll see you on the other side!
We then see Mamoru happily eating food with Night Raid in one second, before being replaced by him in his Amazon state, feasting on his friends before he snaps into reality, screaming and crying as he hugs Shelle's body.
Wondering around in the dark, Searching for that answer, to spark, Ask if every sin will fight again!
Out in the distance, we see RWBY, along with JNPR standing firm against the Ganma and Wild Amazon's while the looming figure of Da Vinci stands above them all before Cody and Enrique summon their drivers. Cody shouting out, 'Henshin' while Enrique shouts out, 'Amazon' before the screen turns white.
Oh, Woah! Oh, oh, oh~, The pain and the pleasure, All come together, There is no reason why.
We then finally see Ghost and Omega charging in, killing every Ganma and Amazon in their way before reaching Da Vinci, the Time Ganma already giving them trouble as he sends them back into some void.
Oh, Woah! Oh, oh, oh~, The pain and the pleasure, All come together, There is no reason why.
As the two riders are floating in the void, several lights appear, showing Yang, Leone and their friends as they help them back up to the light, as they fly towards Da Vinic before it cuts away to show the title card one last time.
Cody and Yang began their date in Vale, enjoying each other's company since it has been a while since their last date. This time though was at a nice store out near the waters of Vale. It looked like a family owned shop, with many different cultures and more inside. The two walked in as they took their seats, "So, where did you find this place?" He asked her.
"Remember the time we met Penny?" She asked.
"Oh… hehehehe…" He chuckled nervously upon the memory. "I remember that…"
"Mhm. I'm still surprised you actually befriended her." Yang said, leaning against her arm.
"Hey, once you get past the….. 'Uniqueness' of her, she's a really charming girl." Cody smiled. "Sides, you were weird too when we first met." He chuckled.
She pouted in which Cody find cute. "I wasn't weird Cody" She denied.
"Denial~" He said in a sing-song manner. "You were when we met."
Yang rolled her eyes, "Keep it up, Ghost-boy." she teased, the young rider flinching from that name.
"You know I hate when you use that name on me… It feels like Roman is just sitting behind me, whispering that word." He shivered.
"He's in prison, Cody." She assured softly. "I'm here and no one else."
Cody smiled, feeling more calm. "You're right, Yang."
"Of course I am, Cody." She grinned. The blonde huntress grinning as she moves closer to him, pulling him to where he's sitting on her lap now.
"Uh… Ya-?" He was quickly silenced as she drags him into a embraceful kiss, wrapping her arms around him as they enjoy each others close bond. But after a bit they slowly parted a soft smile on his face, "You seriously are getting good at this… It's where you're almost taking the lead on everything. Trying to prove something are we?"
"You know me, Cody." She said a wink before the waitress comes over, and oddly enough, it was Velvet and her leader Coco. Both wearing unique maid outfits, befitting to their styles.
"Velvet? I didn't know you worked here." Cody said, waving to her.
"Y-Yeah, I'm surprised you two are here," replied the rabbit Faunus. "Are you guys on a date?"
"Mhm! Just me… and my man…" Yang grinned, showing off her relationship to Coco.
"No need to show off, Yang." Coco said. "You are lucky along with Weiss to have guys like Cody and Axel here."
"Hehe, you know it. Makes me glad I got to him first, ya know?" She winked.
Coco hate to admit but she nodded as she looks at the two. She looked at the time and the tables, showing that it wasn't that busy. "Say, you two want to hear a story that Velvet and I once heard about?"
"Hm… I think we have time to hear, ladies. So long as you two don't try anything funny." Yang teased.
"Don't worry," Coco assured as the two members of CFVY sat down. "You see… there were old tales, legends that Grimm weren't the only beasts around."
"Weren't the only beasts? You mean the Ancient Grimm?" Cody asked.
"No…" Velvet said. "There were stories, tales, even old rumors of a single monster that stood out from all the Grimm, even the ancients. They called it… The Omega."
"The Omega?" They said in unison.
Coco somehow had a flashlight as she placed the light under her face. "The Omega was known to be an Apex Predator. It had no known enemies, no Grimm would ever fight it." She explained. "Even more… they say it was the size of a human being that can kill so many Grimm that the moment they see the Omega, they would run instead of attacking."
"W-What…. Happened to it?" Yang asked, shivering slightly.
"Like any Grimm, some die upon years of age." Velvet said. "They said the Omega had the lifespan of a human being. It lived up to 100 years then died. Its remains… only melted, not like Grimm. For the day it can walk, it killed Grimm for a living. Even some other rumors that it ate the Grimm, without them disintegrating."
"Wait…. If that's true… then how could anyone remember it and prove it was real? I mean… If it remains just melted… Then wouldn't that not prove anything?" Cody asked, questioning the logic for a moment.
"That is because they discovered one thing that proved it." Coco said. "Despite its remain melting, they found one thing that was barely intact. The Heart of the Omega. They actually discovered a black heart that had a red glow every time it beats."
"A-And…. Where do they... k-keep this heart?" Yang asked, holding onto Cody a bit more.
"The people who found it say its sacred knowing that the Omega was the first Apex Predator." The two said until Velvet was next to speak, "The heart of the Omega is kept somewhere in an island that is northwest from here."
"Northwest…?" Cody said until it suddenly hit. "The Isle of Dragon's Breath!"
"Wait, your home is where the Heart is at?" Yang asked.
"How come you didn't tell us?!" Coco and Velvet asked, surprised.
"Cause… this is the first time I've heard of it…" Cody gulped.
The two huntresses looked at each other before turning to Cody, "Look, we go on break tomorrow. Please take us with you to the island!" Coco pleaded. "I have to know if it is true! If the Heart of the one and only Omega is really real!"
"Okay, okay." He said, his hands raised. "Even I want to know, and the only person I can guess who knows the island and probably the Heart is Elder Sein."
"Thanks, Cody!" Velvet thanked, accidentally hugging the young rider before flinching and quickly backing up, the two girls seeing Yang's jealous, angered look. "A-Anyways! We'll see you two tomorrow!" they said, quickly heading back into the kitchen.
"Bit overprotective much?" He chuckled.
"No," She lied before looking at him. "Still… an Apex Predator? I mean it sounds hard to take in, knowing that there was one monster that all Grimm actually fear? Even causing fear into them since the day it can walk."
"It does seem a bit farfetched…" Cody pondered, "But, worth a look…." He then smirks at her, "Plus, never see you, be frightened by some ghost tale." He teased her, causing her to blush in embarrassment.
"Wait, they never told us what the Omega looked like!" Yang realized before getting up and went to the counter. "Velvet, Coco, do you two know or heard what the Omega looked like?"
"Oh? Uh…. from what we heard, some kind of… humanoid-like monitor lizard, with green skin, black fins, and blood red eyes." Velvet explained.
"Though, some say red or purple too… We're not entirely sure…" Coco added before grabbing a paper. "But I do remember reading a book that had an image of it." She began to draw it which took about several minutes. When she was done, Cody walked up and he saw a good look of the image. It was on all fours. Its body was green with dark, blood red streaks and spikes protruding from his arms and back. His chest also had raised parts as if it acted as bone but blood red.
Its head was green as well, remind them that of some type of reptile with two large blood-red eyes and an open mouth but no teeth, only pitch black as if you can't see what it's mouth is. A small horn that is on its forehead was orange while the back of its head had openings.
"This is what 'The Omega' supposedly looks like?" Cody got it.
"Oddly enough… it looks kinda cute." Yang pointed out, surprising the others, "What? I mean it doesn't have any teeth from what I can see, even more having large eyes and that little horn?"
Coco sighed, "I swear… your girl has strange tastes…" she said out loud.
"Anyways. If that's all, guess we'll see you two at the Bullhead area first thing in the morning?" Cody smiled.
After the date, the two were making their way back to Beacon as Cody was staring at the drawing. Despite it being on all fours, he could tell it was like it was kneeling while its claws were on the ground, acting as if it was gazing out in the distance. Something about the 'Omega' made it seem it was like… it was acting human as it gazes at something. Was the Omega the first humanoid being before humans and Faunus ever appeared?
All of these thoughts began to make his brain rattle but his heart bump, he was excited! Possibly going to find the truth about it tomorrow as well! And he couldn't wait to learn if the Omega was the origin of humanity. But as he sat there, he felt her arms yet again, chuckling softly.
"You're being awfully clingy today. Some reason for that?" He chuckled, looking at Yang.
"Heh, guess I just want to spend a bit more time with my boyfriend. Problem with that?" She grinned softly.
"I don't mind," He smiled. "And I am curious."
"Curious about what?"
"I mean the Omega." He gestured to the drawing. "Coco drew this right from the book she saw. I mean when you look at it, you can tell it was gazing the distance, like it is doing what us people would do. Despite it being an Apex Predator, it must have been the first humanoid ever known. I mean, think about it. There were no records to how humanity came to exist. What if the Omega was the origin? What if he was the origin to why we survive? To fight? What if the melted remains actually brought life?"
"Geez Cody…. You're getting too excited." She smiled, poking his forehead, "Relax…. Your answers will be revealed tomorrow…" She hugged him, having the young rider be pressed against her 'treasures' but gently. "Just relax alright?"
He smiled and nodded, "We'll find out tomorrow. Maybe Elder Sein may have answers too."
"Good! Now…. I like to give you something for today…" She grinned a soft blush appearing on her face.
"U-Um... " He flustered.
"We have the whole room to ourselves… since Blake is spending time with Sun now, Ruby, Luna and Alan are with JNPR, and Axel and Weiss are at the mansion…" She noted off, her grin growing. "We have everything we could need for some time for each other…."
"You're right about that…" He admitted.
"So then….." she grinned, leading him back inside to their dorm, "Shall I give you what you need?" she asked, seductively as her eyes were half lidded to him. He gulped before he slowly nodded. The two heading back for their 'usual' service.
The next day arrived, the two couple, waiting at the Bullhead for Coco and Velvet, the young rider actually now excited to know about this, since ancient history is a favorite for him. Yang chuckled softly at him being excited as they wait their, both listening into a song that his sister, Aurora made for Yang.
"So, her song… 'I Burn', like it?" He asked her.
"I like it," She beamed. "You gotta ask your sister to make one for Ruby."
"Sure thing," He said before the two saw Coco who was carrying another bag while Velvet had a camera. "I guess you two want to prove the others about the Apex Predator?"
"More like test it, just in case if it can come back." Coco smirked.
"As for me, I actually wanna get some pictures of you and your weapons in action." Velvet smiled.
"I didn't know you took pictures." Cody realized, "That's a nice little hobby if you ask me."
Velvet's smile grew before the four entered the Bullhead which soon took them to Cody's home island which was a bit of a long flight. As they were on their way, a familiar chirp was heard. Cody looked around, even Coco and Velvet were wondering what it was until a familiar Grimm head poked its head out of Coco's other bag, nibbling on some chocolate.
"Razor…" Cody sighed, "Seriously, you should ask before entering someone's bag, looking for chocolate…"
The Raptor Grimm, popped out of the bag. It was small, like an average sized dog, with black skin and fur, white mask with yellow eyes. Its body resembled that of a lizard, but on two legs, along with two large claws on the feet, and a few golden feather on the back of the skull and tail. It chirped before nuzzling into Velvet's leg.
"Heh, seems to me, this Grimm is in love with you Velvet." Coco teased.
"Grimm love," Yang added with a tease.
"It isn't like that," Velvet said as the Raptor Grimm jumped onto Cody's lap and fell asleep.
The young rider rolled his eyes, petting the Grimm as it slept, "Guess is just wanted to come along then. Hope he didn't ruin anything in there, Coco? I'll happily pay for the damages.." He offered.
Coco checked her bag as a deadpan expression was shown in which she tilted the bag and a lot of candy wrappers fell out. "He ate all of my snacks."
"Eh...heh…. Well…. Luckily, once we land, we can stop by the sweets shop… I'm sure they'll either give me a discount or possibly free?" He chuckled softly, knowing that you never get between a girl and her sweets.
"Good," She grinned.
After a couple of minutes, they soon reached the island and landed, the four exiting the Bullhead as they walked to the center of the town first, as they do, a few of the kids on the island greet them. Yang quickly noticing some girls having red, white, black, and even yellow highlights in their hair. "Seems, you four did a good impression on them last time." Cody smiled.
"Never expected that," Yang said as the four were walking to the plaza.
Upon heading in further, they then see the Elder, resting on a bench near by. The young rider called out to him as he smiles and greets them as they approach the Elder, "Cody, Yang. It is good to see you two." He then sees the two other Huntresses next to them, "My… Never expected you to have a mass of girls following you. Ah… it must be nice to be young." He smiled to them all.
"It's not like that, Elder Sein," Cody flustered slightly before it vanished and showed him the drawing. "Elder Sein, do you know about the Apex Predator, the Omega humanoid?"
Elder Sein's face went pale, his eyes widening as his hand trembled, "Where did you know of this?" he asked them. Cody pointed at Coco and Velvet, "They told me since they heard stories and rumors about the Omega."
Elder Sein quickly stood up and began to walk off from them, "I'm sorry… But I cannot help you with this… That…. 'Thing'... deserves to stay buried… It's even more evil than the Grimm…." He said to them, "If you dare try searching for it, you will only find your deaths…" He warned them.
"Dangerous? Why would something that has no teeth could be dangerous?" Yang asked.
The elder stopped before looking at the four, "The Omega was an apex predator for a reason. No Grimm would ever go near it. They say it was the start of humanity itself, a humanoid that only cares about fighting, enjoying it." He frowned. "It craved flesh to satisfy itself… even with no teeth, they say its jaw was powerful enough to bite through metal and even Dust."
"What…. Happened to it?" Velvet asked.
"It died of old age. It lived up to 102 years old." He replied with a sigh, "Why do you want to know about the Omega?"
"We just want to study it's supposed remains, it's an important part of the human culture and must be documented." Cody said.
"Plus, why keep it a secret if it's dead?" Coco added on.
Elder Sein was quiet before he gestured them to follow. Seeing as how he knows about it, they decided to follow as the Elder eventually lead them to his home but they went around it and saw a shrine with a large sign of the 'Ω' symbol. However on a small block of stone was a small stone chest as candles were lit around it.
"This… is it's tomb?" Cody got out.
"Not a tomb, the chest that holds it very heart." He replied, the five approaching it.
"It's heart? But… how is that possible? Wouldn't it decay and be eaten by insects or something?" Yang asked.
"It's blood isn't like ours, it's blood was black even its flesh once it melts. The Heart has a special coating that prevents it from decaying over time. If preserved, it lasts much longer."
"So…. can we see it?" Velvet asked.
The Elder grimaced before he sighed, "Knowing Cody, I suggest it won't hurt but you must never touch it." He answered. "Is that understood?"
"Can't touch it? Why? Will it come back if we do touch it?" Coco crossed her arms, joking about it.
The Elder approached the chest before he carefully and gently got it before bringing it to them. They swear they could hear the small sound of beating like that from a heart. For Velvet, she could hear it clearly.
"It still beats, too?" Yang got out, surprised.
He opened it, revealing a human-sized black heart as they could see the read glow as it beats. Some small signs of black blood was still around it as well as being covered in a black-cage like layer as if it was encasing it. Their faces became green upon seeing it.
"That's…. A heart? It doesn't look like a heart at all!" Yang got out, trying to avoid it.
"It is what came from the Omega." The Elder said. "My ancestor was the one who discovered it, seeing it sacred knowing that the Grimm never ate it or got near it. It was like a repellant."
Razor became afraid upon the sight that it stepped away. Cody noticed as he leaned down and petted it, "It's okay boy…. Why don't you go back to the house and wait for us, if it makes you uncomfortable?" he smiled, at it. It chirped before it soon dashed its way to Cody's home. "Even Razor doesn't want to be near it…" He noted. "I guess Grimm really are still afraid of it."
"So…. why can't we touch it really? Is it deadly to humans or Faunus?" Velvet asked, leaning towards it.
Elder Sein quickly made Velvet's hand move away from it. "There is a reason. They say its blood was also a virus. You see, my father discovered that its blood has tiny cells that… are actually alive. In other words, you all are looking at a living organism, like bacteria. It's entire body was basically a home to dozens of cells that are like it."
Velvet gulped, knowing full what what it can do now as Elder Sein seals it back up. "Thank you for showing us, elder…" Cody bowed, "Though… this does beg the question… If it's this dangerous, why keep it around? Wouldn't it be better to destroy it, so it won't fall into the wrong hands?"
"Cody, remember how the Ancient Grimm never come near the village?" he reminded.
Cody's eyes widen, "That… why… So… the limit to it's power… is only towards the mines…" he frowned, realizing it now. "And that Heart is the reason why they never approached the village, even the tamed Grimm don't go near the shrine. But… why not place its heart by the mines? That way they will never leave the mines?"
"Life finds a way," He quoted.
The young rider sighs, nodding. "Alright then… Thank you Elder." He bows to him. He and the girls began to head back to the village, all feeling some satisfaction from the reveal of the rumors being true. "I hope you enjoyed it?" He smiled, turning to the three huntresses.
"At least we know it was real but still…" Velvet shivered. "Thank the Elder from stopping me."
"Yeah. Its creepy that to know that its entire body was home to dozens of living, virus like cells." Coco added.
"Well, I thought it would take us a lot more time to get the answers, so seems we all have time to kill. What would you three like to do?" Cody asked the girls.
"I want to see the type of clothes they have," Coco said with a grin.
"Is clothes really the only thing you think about, Coco?" Velvet asked, deadpanned.
"Come on Velvet, don't you want to look for someone or impress?" She pointed out before turning to Yang. "And what about you? Don't you want to impress, your man?" She teased, "If you don't try something new.. Someone may snatch him up again." She smirked, lowering her glasses slightly.
"Not in a million years," Yang said before dragging Cody away.
In Vale, the Ganma that decided to help Da Vinci, managed to gather the amount of Lightning and Gravity Dust needed for what Da Vinci Ganma required for the Cell Medals since the coins have special type of energy.
"Is that all of these, Cell Medals, that were in there?" He asked the grunts.
They nodded, "This is all we gathered from the old temple."
"Good…" Da Vinci grinned, the revived Ganma began to draw around the pile of medals, creating what looks like some kind of alchemy or magical seal around it. Once done, it began to glow brightly as the Cell Medals were lifted up, dissolving into Dust as he walked into the seal, once done,the ashes of the Medals began to form around the Ganma, ripples of energy surge out of the seal and striking the Ganma Soldiers, knocking them down.
The Ganma got back up as they continue to watch what was happening. With the core energy that the Cell Medals have along with the lightning and gravity dust was forming something. "Hmm.. I wonder what would happen if I try to travel…. Or pull something here?" Da Vinci smirked, reaching his arm out as the circle brightened more, a small light forming as what came out of it was some new creature. It was a humanoid creature with an exoskeleton body and white fuzz on its body. Two pairs of spider-like legs draped over its shoulders as its hands look like sharp claws while it had a spider's abdomen hanging from its posterior. It also has a small head with red eyes on its face and working mandibles. "And what are you supposed to be?" He asked the creature.
It hissed as it looked around, unable to see them due to them being dark spirits. He could tell it has human intelligence but the bloodlust… it was beyond even the Grimm's lust for blood and death. He also noticed an armband on its left arm that had two red eyes. They watched it look around before it began to sniff the air, the mandibles clicking as if it found food, making it drool. It scurried away, heading to the source of food.
"Hmm… Seems to me, I can cause some havoc with them…. Maybe even kill that lousy temptress and her little cult?" Da Vinci smirked, using the seal to help make duplicates of that same creature, making a small force with them, but as he does, electricity flies off, striking a Ganma Commander with each duplicate he makes, erasing them as not even ash is left.
Whatever the monster was, it was about to commit its feast, humans. With the creature, it was scurrying as some black beasts tried to kill it but were only greeted with webs, trapping them before it continued its travel. What it soon saw was a city… the scent of human flesh entering its senses. The mandibles clicked before it crawled and began to begin its hunt for humans to gather and eat.
With Axel and Weiss, the two were enjoying their date together, taking a walk in the city after eating at a cake shop. Weiss was enjoying some cake as she leaned against Axel, the young rider, enjoying this as this actually was helping him relax more as he tries to find some way to tell her everything?
"Mmm…. Now this is the best…." She smiled.
"Yeah…" He agreed, feeling relaxed for once.
Weiss soon stopped the cake as she looked up, "Axel? I… need to tell you something…" she said to him.
He turned his head to her, wondering what she has to say. "What is it you want to tell me?" He asked.
"Well um… Yesterday…. I went to the CCT, and… I talked to my sister…And… told her everything about you… As long as she doesn't tell father…." She admitted.
His entire body froze upon that, "You… told your sister…" He got out, mentally trying to calm down. He remember that Winter was a soldier of the Atlas military and the fact that he once encountered her during his 'quest' to find answers. "What… did she say…?"
"Well… She said, she'll tell you once she comes here for the Vytal Festival…." she frowns slightly, "If…. she comes that is?" She sighed, messing around with her fork as it barely touched the cake.
He felt relaxed but he knew that it will be the second time that he will meet Winter. The first time they met, he was killing a base full of White Fang members before the Atlas military arrested the other grunts of the White Fang. "You want to see her again?" He guessed.
She nods, "Unlike father… She does care about me… Even if she can be a bit harsh?" she chuckled softly. "Though.. Due to father, she can't disobey him or the Atlas Military…. Hence why she's in 2nd in command right now…"
"I see…" He noted until he felt Weiss placed her hand on his own, making him let out a small smile.
"Though… If she did say one thing about you…. It would be that she is grateful that you saved me… and became mine…." She smiled, a soft blush appearing on her face from those words.
"Well… you are lucky one, Weiss." He said, teasing her a bit.
"Thanks… My Azure Prince.." She smiled, leaning in towards a kiss, but before she could, a bloodcurdling scream can be heard near by, they turn their heads to see a Faunus running away before being pounced on by some new creature, it began digging into their flesh, eating away as the Faunus went limp and blood pooled from the body.
It was a humanoid creature with an exoskeleton body and white fuzz on its body. Two pairs of spider-like legs draped over its shoulders as its hands look like sharp claws while it had a spider's abdomen hanging from its posterior. It also has a small head with red eyes on its face and working mandibles. It shot its web around the dead body to preserve it before it saw more people who witnessed it. Its mouth drooled as it got up to see more food.
It was no Grimm, it was something new. It let out another screech as blood stained its mouth. Weiss covered her mouth, her face growing pale from what she just saw, even Axel was mortified from this image and even the creature itself.
"Weiss… get everyone away from that… thing…" He said, as his waist glowed blue fire as a familiar device was on his waist. He then presented an Eyecon of Specter before pressing it. He placed it inside his Driver and closed it.
EYE!
BATCHIRIMIRO! BATCHIRIMIRO!
The Specter Damashii flew out around him, as Axel still stood. "Hen… shin…" He pushed the lever.
KAIGAN! SPECTER…
READY GO! KAKUGO!
DOKI-DOKI GHOST!
He was now wearing a black suit underneath his armour, with the armour being coloured black. The blue lines that appeared on his body before were used as decorations for the armour, with the way they were styled and positioned made it them resemble the bones of a person's body. On the chest and back of the armour was the same eye symbol that appeared before, though scaled smaller so it would fit onto the armour. Unlike the blue lines, the eye symbol was glowing yellow.
The hands also had small pieces of armour at the back of the fingers as well as the palm. The knees also had blue knee guards to protect them, with similarly coloured bands on the warrior's wrists and ankles. Over his armor was a black hoodie with blue trimmings, with it's collar being pull back to reveal blue lining that had black trimmings, seemingly held back in place through the use of silver buttons at the edges. It had black straps extending from it's short sleeves and the hood down as well as having belt-like straps on it's shoulders and a small coattail reminiscent of a classic ghost tail.
The most menacing feature about the figure was his face. He had a black helmet with a full blue visor with black 'eyes' and 'teeth'. Along with that were two blue devil-like horns that had a silver edge, with a blue gem embedded near the base.
This was Kamen Rider Specter.
Specter lowered his hood as he used his Semblance to summon his sword. "Bring it…." He challenged.
The creature howled out at him, charging at the rider, as blood and a limp was attached to its jaws, the creature was still hungry and Axel could feel it easily. It charged forward in which Axel blocked its claws but when he tried to strike, the creature actually blocked it rather in good timing. It had human intelligence! He took notice of its armband, looking a bit technological with two red glows. "What the hell…?" He muttered before kicking the monster away. "What kind of person would make a creature?" He could tell by looking at the armband, it was like a collar but on its arm, showing that it was a monster that was something from a frankenstein.
The creature spat out some webbing, gripping onto the rider's arm and legs as it began to pull him hard. Axel took notice as he planted his feet on the ground, imbedding into the concrete, but oddly enough, it kept pulling! Slowly dragging him through the concrete more and more. It was very strong too. It was like some sort of super creature!
"What the hell are you!?" He growled before he used his Semblance to cut away the web and thrusted his blade, keeping the beast in place before summoning his rifle. He aimed at it before releasing a few rounds, some barely piercing through its hide.
"Am...a...zon…." It responded, its voice sending chills down their spines before howling out again. It tried to get itself free from the chains but Specter continued, the chains becoming tighter, making it screech. Specter fired more rounds, each one trying to pierce through so he shot the same spot many times until green blood was leaking from it.
"Just a little more…" He muttered, firing more and more until it finally pierced through its chest. This thing, 'Amazon' froze before it slowly dropped to the ground, its webbings slowly dissolving as it's body began to… liquefy into a black puddle?
However in the puddle was the armband in which he approached it and got hold of it. He saw dozens of needles inside the armband as if it was literally attached to its arm. He then looked at Weiss and walked to her. "It's gone now…" He said before showing the armlet. "But this didn't melt with it."
"What is it exactly?" Weiss asked, looking at the armband carefully.
"I don't know but it was literally attached to its arm, like it was being tracked or watched over. Something or someone sent the monster…" He responded before turning to the body it killed, wrapped in webbing. "And it was very hungry…"
But before he could do anything, something tackled him to the ground, as he regained his bearings, he quickly noticed that there was another one?! No… There was more…. He quickly sees more either eating the corpse the first one left behind or already attacking other people and Faunus easily. It was an infestation.
"Weiss, call your sister…. I think this is a infestation! Someone made these things!" He shouted, kicking it away before he brought out his rifle, shoving the rifle into its mouth and released a round, killing it. He fired at the others to get their attention in which it worked as Specter was making them focus on him, following him. "Now! I'll keep them at bay!" He shot another which melted. "And contact the others!"
"I-I'll try!" she nods, bringing out her Scroll, only for it to be webbed to the ground. She turns as she blocks an attack from another one of those creatures, using her weapon to hold it back as it tries to bite her face or even her neck.
"Weiss!" He cried out before he charged forward and shot the creature away. He grabbed the Eyecons he owns, "Go get the others!" The Eyecons nodded before they floated away to find the others. Whatever was happening, it was a spider infestation.
A/N: Heya minna! Hope you all enjoyed the first chapter of this fic? Don't worry, it won't be long. Now for a few things, this story, not only will have some development of my characters and Shadow's, but also some things to get rolling. Such as Axel's struggle to tell Weiss. No, it won't be resolved here. Vol 3 is meant for that.
This is just something to go with, so we can see him realizing the struggle he made of his decision and what it'll impact to.
But until then, later minna!
