"This isn't exactly an opportune time, Ozpin."
"I know, Glynda, but this needs to be addressed."
"But Beacon's new year starts tomorrow! You'll need to be there to watch initiation."
"Nonsense. I'm sure that you will be able to handle it completely. If what Qrow said is true, then this is a much more pressing situation."
Glynda sighed. Ozpin was always doing things like this. At least this time, it was something serious. But that didn't mean he needed to go running off after it.
"Glynda, if these warriors continue like they are now, then they might destroy an entire Kingdom."
"Surely not, Ozpin. No one has that kind of power."
"Have you not been listening?" Ozpin seemed to be growing more frantic. "One of them destroyed half of a mountain with a single attack!"
"Ozpin, if you interfere, you'll die!" And like that, Glynda made her real concern known. Ozpin smiled slightly.
"Glynda, we both know that that won't happen." Not giving her a chance to retort, Ozpin left his office briskly, determined to get out to 'Ground Zero,' as it was. Qrow had sent his message along with a very zoomed in and short video, showing the fight from a huge distance away.
While the Bullhead he had boarded lifted into the air, Ozpin began to rewatch it, just to reaffirm what he had seen before.
The two men stood apart from each other, only about twenty feet. They were dressed roughly the same, but they wielded different weapons. One of them had nothing but his hands, while the other had what looked like a giant fan and a scythe.
In an amazing first move, the unarmed one produced some kind of wooden construct from his palm, which took the form of what looked almost like a snake, but with arms. It flew through the air, right for the other man, when that one had jumped over it, slicing downwards thrice, cutting the snake-like construct into multiple pieces, which flopped onto the ground. He hit the ground, and ran for the other man, readying his scythe.
The unarmed man hand slammed his hand into the ground, and the scythe wielder jumped backwards. Not a moment later, another of the strange wooden creatures flew out of the ground, then circled around the unarmed man, like a snake, but leaving the front uncovered.
The video ended there, but according to Qrow, they had gotten more out of hand, with the unarmed man destroying half a mountain with his wooden abilities. It seemed to be some kind of Semblance. Qrow hadn't gone into details, but Ozpin was still having trouble believing it himself. The only reason he did was because it was Qrow.
As the Bullhead drew closer to where Qrow had told them the fight was taking place, it began to shake violently. "Sir! We're losing altitude!" the pilot shouted back to the headmaster.
"That's fine! You can leave. I'll handle this!" Ozpin shouted back. He stepped off of the airship, and dropped down to the close ground, landing gracefully. Qrow dropped down next to him from a tree.
"Good to see ya, Oz. I've got no idea how to describe this to you."
Ozpin and Qrow stood atop a tree that sat atop a mountain, watching the fighters in the valley below. And despite their distance, there was absolutely no issue seeing the two of them. None at all. For one of them had created some kind of monstrous fox with nine tails, while the other had made what looked like a wooden human with that strange snake-like creature coiled around it. And these two gargantuan monstrosities were now fighting.
With every clash, a massive shockwave was sent out from the point of contact. Any skepticism Ozpin may have had vanished as soon as they struck each other the first time. Scratch destroying a Kingdom, these two might end up flattening an entire continent. Which, of course, meant he would need to find a way to stop them.
But as though they knew he was trying to come up with a plan to defeat them, they each stepped it up another few stories worth of steps. The giant fox shot some kind of orb at the wooden giant, and said wooden giant had thrust it back into the fox's face. Or, rather, it would have, had a glowing blue shield not blocked it, and caused a massive explosion. Ozpin used almost his entire store of Aura producing a shield around himself and Qrow, just so they wouldn't die.
When the smoke cleared, the wooden giant was gone, but the fox, because it wasn't threatening enough before, wore a glowing blue suit of armor, and wielded two swords that seemed to be made of energy. There was a brief pause, and then, with the dropping of Qrow's jaw, a colossal wooden being with what appeared to be a thousand arms arrayed behind it grew from out of the ground, with the wooden humanoid upon its head.
And then each of the hands swung forwards, while the being strode forwards, matched by the armored fox. The fox began to fire more of those explosive orbs, combined with its constantly reforming swords, at the thousand arms of the enormous wooden being. Each time they hit, a huge cluster of arms would be destroyed, only for ten more to take the place of each of the rest. Sheer numbers seemed to win out, and the fox was struck on all sides by the wooden arms of this monstrosity of a Semblance.
Once more, they waited for the dust to clear. When it did, the fox was revealed to have had a large portion of its armor stripped away by the attack of a thousand hands. Off of the top of the colossus, the smaller giant leapt down, hand outstretched with some kind of symbol on it. The hand impacted the fox, and the large red eyes closed slowly, as the titanic mammal crashed to the ground, the sound echoing far beyond the valley.
From their vantage point atop their tree, Ozpin and Qrow couldn't see anything else happen beyond several flashes of fire down below. Ozpin started for the battlefield. Qrow was much more hesitant, and remained on the tree, far above the battle. Ozpin, however, had realized that if they were fighting as they were now, then chance were that they were beginning to tire. Which meant they would soon become vulnerable. Or, at least, as vulnerable as they would ever become.
He didn't know who they were, but if they were fighting, then chances were that one of them was likely to be evil. While Ozpin didn't enjoy simple views like good and evil, he had no other words for it at the moment. The giant armored fox and wooden human had kind of upset the balance his mind usually had.
It became abundantly clear that the two warriors were nowhere even close to tired rather quickly. As evidenced by the fact that the fire spouts were, rather than shrinking, growing in size as more of them appeared. Whoever these men were, they clearly had incredible mastery over Dust and Aura. To say nothing of their Semblances, which each seemed to be beyond anything that anyone could ever even dream of.
He shuddered at the thought of what Salem could do if she got her hands on this kind of power. That was why he either needed to recruit one of them for himself or make sure the both of these combatants perished.
Unfortunately for his plans, he knew he couldn't compare to these two. While he may have been powerful in his own right, these two were literally altering the world around them, and drastically. There were several mountains here an hour ago that stood no longer, after these two had led their duel here.
Feeling he was close enough now, Ozpin began to observe the epic battle from the top of another tree. The unarmed man now held a sword, though Ozpin had no idea where he may have acquired it. The other man wielded his scythe and fan still, and they both charged each other.
They almost seemed to cut across each other as they passed one another. One of them collapsed onto the ground. It was the previously unarmed one. The other stood, victorious, and seemed to gloat over his defeated enemy. While Ozpin wasn't sure how it happened, he could see another one of the unarmed man coming from behind the man with the scythe, still wielding his sword.
He plunged the sword through the other man, causing blood to practically gush from the wound instantly. Ozpin watched with interest. Almost no one killed without hesitation like that. The victorious man appeared to give a short monologue of his own. The now stabbed man collapsed, followed shortly by the other man. Seeing that they both seemed to be unconscious, Ozpin started towards them. This was his chance.
He studied them as they lay on the ground. They both wore the same red armor as each other, but with a few differences, such as symbols displayed. Beyond that, there weren't really any differences. Fortuitously, they were both out cold, meaning they were each defenseless. However, one of them seemed to be dead, so there was no need to waste time and effort transporting him back to Beacon.
So instead, Ozpin grabbed the man with the wood Semblance, and began to make his way back towards Qrow. Fortunately, Qrow arrived soon on a Bullhead. "I called in transport. We're getting back to Beacon?"
Ozpin nodded, then glanced the man he was bringing along, "We'll need to restrain this man until we determine his nature. He is very dangerous. I should like to avoid any unnecessary destruction."
Within the next hour, with the man still out cold, he was placed in the vault beneath Beacon Tower, held by bonds made especially for huntsmen and huntresses of incredible power. Since he didn't seem to have any serious wounds, despite the magnitude of the battle he had waged, Ozpin judged that he didn't need any medical attention. Beacon's new year was beginning tomorrow, however. Ozpin didn't have the time he would have liked to examine the man. Perhaps he would get to it at a later date.
So, I found this on my computer, from almost two months ago. I recall that I abandoned it because I found that I wasn't enjoying even just writing the first chapter. If you guys like it, then I suppose I could try and make a story out of it, but for now, this is the only bit I've got.
Think of it as a one-shot, for now.
