"Who the hell are they?"
This is the one question that goes to all of them, to team RWBY, JNPR and CFVY. To all of Beacon Academy. To all of Vale. To all of Remnant.
This is also one question that will remain either unsolved, or maybe will be answered in the future. No one can be certain of that.
I mean, those twelve foreigners couldn't have done anything wrong, right?
To start it off, the three teams that I spoke about earlier, team RWBY, team JNPR, and team CFVY were given the task of handling the creatures of mass destruction, the Grimm, at a seemingly abandoned factory at a long, lost part of Emerald Forest.
Two Bullheads were sent, each containing six people. One of the Bullheads consisted of team RWBY and two members of team CFVY, Velvet Scarlatina and Coco Adel. Another Bullhead consisted of team JNPR and the rest of team CFVY, Fox and Yatsuhashi.
They stood, waiting to arrive at their destination. Yang Xiao Long, the sister to the youngest member of team RWBY, decided to break the silence that had lingered for too long ever since they departed from Beacon Academy.
"So, why did he ask for three teams to go to a factory? I mean, if you think about it, maybe two teams are already enough for an extermination on them. You guys do remember when we saved the town from the Grimm infestation almost a week ago, right?"
Weiss Schnee, a member of team RWBY and also the heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, sighed, saying, "Yang, do I have to repeat it to you? The amounts of Grimm this time is larger than the one we faced in that town. Or course Ozpin would need to send more teams than usual."
Ruby Rose, the youngest member of the team, scratched her head, saying. "Wait, weren't there more teams than what we are, right now? I think there were about five or six teams that gathered there back then, including us."
Velvet, the rabbit Faunus of team CFVY, intervened, saying, "Probably because there were variety of them. If I remembered correctly, weren't there some Ursa as well? And maybe this time it's just the normal type of Grimm that appeared and infested the factory."
Ruby then asked more. "Wait, why are the Grimm targeting an abandoned factory, anyway? It's abandoned. No one works there anymore. Unless..." She wondered about the possible explanation.
Blake Belladonna, the cat Faunus of team RWBY, said, "Maybe because it's a-" She was cut off by Yang saying, "No, Blake. We're not talking about them. We just fought a horde of Grimm they'd let loose from a secret underground base." Yang's violet eyes stared in Blake's amber ones. Blake turned her head and watched outside the Bullhead, looking at the scenery.
The journey, however, took almost an hour due to location of the abandoned factory was so small that not many people can find it, especially in a foggy weather like this.
Ruby yawned and her eyes threatened to close at any time. Her sister, Yang, came from behind and put her hands on Ruby's shoulder. Ruby was a little conscious yet sleepy at the same time, feeling her sister's hands on her shoulder, before she snapped awake when Yang squeezed her shoulders so hard that her shoulders might had dislocated themselves from the grips.
"Sis, we're on a mission right now. Don't fall asleep yet. If you fell asleep when we fight the Grimm later, don't try expecting someone to be at your back. Except maybe me, because I'm your sister." Ruby nodded, knowing her sister was right. If she fell asleep, who would watch her back since this could be a big horde of Grimm they will fight.
About ten minutes later, they finally arrived at their destination, an abandoned factory at a deserted part of Emerald Forest. Both teams jumped out of the Bullheads, looking around the place, searching for any signs of Grimm nearby.
Checking if their weapons were still with them, the Bullheads left them up to their own business of exterminating the Grimm that had infested the area around the factory.
Team RWBY looked around the factory, but found no signs of life, not even a Grimm. Team JNPR walked a bit further away from the factory, looking at the forest ahead of them, readying themselves in case a Grimm jumps out on them. Team CFVY destroyed the lock that kept the door unaccessible, entering it to check inside the abandoned factory.
As they entered the factory, they saw many machines that was rusting due to the abandonment. They wondered what the machines were used for. Nonetheless, they still searched the place, hoping to find the infestation point. Unfortunate for them, too, as their team also couldn't find anything in there. They walked back to the entrance, looking back at the broken place, before walking out together.
The three teams gathered together again, with team JNPR also came back empty-handed.
"Are you sure there were reports about this place being infested with Grimm? I see anything but a Grimm." Ruby said as she looked around again.
"Well, Ozpin did command us to come here. Maybe all the Grimm ran away to find a new place to populate. I mean, look at this place!" Yang practically shouted as she turned to the factory. "There's no signs of life here anymore!"
All of them slumped down and sat, thinking of what to do while waiting for anything to happen.
"Can someone call a Bullhead back now? I don't think this place gave off much of the thing that we've been called here for." Weiss said as she looked around the teams, watching if anyone was going to raise their scroll to call a Bullhead. But no one did.
"I'm pretty sure they would come back soon, Weiss. I mean, we did took about an hour to get here. And I think Ozpin said he would send a Bullhead back in 4 hours. And I think he said the Bullhead needs to be refueled first, and that the flight earlier was the most they could do with the remaing fuel." Ruby said as she lied down on the grass.
Yang was about to say something, when they suddenly heard a screech from the sky.
All of them stood up and looked up to find a Nevermore. Everyone smiled, finally finding something that could satisfy their need to kill some Grimm.
"Finally! Something to do! Woohoo!" Yang screamed as she ran towards the flying Nevermore. Well, she would have if one of the Nevermore's wing wasn't covered in ice.
She stopped running, looking at the Nevermore's wing that was suddenly froze by some kind of hail storm that seemed to have been made by someone. She, along with everyone else looked back at Weiss, who shook her head, saying, "Yang, I didn't even activate my Myrtenaster yet. How am I supposed to do that?"
They then turned back, hearing someone yelling, "Hey! Get back here!", before seeing as a grappling hook was shot from deep within the forest, hooking onto the Nevermore's wing. They then saw as a man in black coat retracted the grappling hook, allowing the man to grab onto the Nevermore.
"I got you now! Nowhere to fly, giant bird! See ya!" They watched as the man took out a black katana, raising it up high to kill the Nevermore.
They then heard another voice from within the forest, yelling, "Damn it, G! Don't just grapple onto a bird for no reason! We don't need another incident involving you stuck in another hole with you legs out!"
"Sorry, Brandon! But I really need to do something about this! Hang on! I'm coming down!" The man in black then swung the black katana, slicing the Nevermore's head, at the same time also causing his flight to plummet down towards the abandoned factory, towards the three teams.
"Uh, did he just slice a Nevermore's throat?" Jaune Arc of team JNPR asked them, getting tons of nod. "And is the Nevermore's body coming down towards us?" Once again, he got nods. This time, however,
"Everyone run before it hits you!" Ruby shouted to the her teammates and friends. They scrambled to get away from the the collision course.
A few moments later, the Nevermore finally crash-landed, sliding roughly on the ground before stopping right in front of the factory's entrance.
Soon, the teams found themselves looking at the broken corpse of the Nevermore, beheaded by a random guy that they've never met. "So, no one's going to ask where that guy was?" Ruby asked before a sound from the Nevermore attracted everyone. They went closer before a hand suddenly emerged from the black corpse, startling all of them, making some of them fell on their butts.
The hand waved around for a bit before another hand suddenly emerged beside the first hand. The hands placed their palms on the giant corpse, before looking as if like it was giving force to the corpse.
They watched it with anticipation, waiting for something happen. Their visions then turned red as the man from earlier shot up from the inside of the Nevermore, blood and organs spraying into everyone's eyes.
"Hah! Now that was fun! Hope I can do that again." The man in black said before he jumped out of the corpse, looking at the three teams that were also staring at him. His smile turned into a frown.
"Well, I'll never expect this moment to happen right in front of my eyes." The man in black said before he heard a rustle from the forest.
"G! You okay there?! Don't worry! We're out!" Another man, this time in purple, emerged from the forest as well, seemingly wearing a fedora. He looked around for a guy named G, before setting his eyes on the man in black that had just been birthed from a Nevermore. Not literally, tho.
And before any of the three teams knew it, 10 more figures came out beside the man in purple, overlooking the situation that had just happened.
They walked towards the man in black, the man in purple placing a hand on his shoulder, saying, "Well, G, at least you're not stuck in a hole. And now we've got them to take care of or what?"
The man in black, in which they presumed is G, was still looking at them, but this time, his eyes were dark and hollow, as if he's keeping some kind of vengeance on them.
"Wh-what-what just happened? Can some-someone tell me what just happened? I-I think I got a shock from all this." Ruby said, obviously shaken up by the event that had just unfolded in front of her.
G looked at her and said, "Oh, yeah, kid. I will tell you what just happened." He went closer to Ruby's face.
"You've just encountered some of the most dangerous beings in the universe."
And welcome to a fan fiction where my OCs are OP as hell, literally. To be honest here, I've never thought I would start it as fan fiction.
These OCs have been in my head for a long time, so I thought to myself, why not? Everyone will have a hard time understanding one of the most dangerous team across the universe. Literally.
So, next chapter is going to see some kind of introduction to the Operators. And you know, I will make an original series of it one day.
Bye.
