~Hello my dear Readers. We have a very special reading for you, from the amazing work originally created from EvaShinobiKaiserKnight, who I would recommend to anyone who enjoys RWBY as well as Garo. So as always; sit back, relax, and enjoy RWBY watching Garo: Saviors of Remnant.
READY? GO!~
It was the middle of the evening, as our favorite team of Huntresses known as Team RWBY was returning from a long day of learning, sparring, and a complex array of missions. Suffice to say, the four girls were exhausted.
Yang: *sighs* man Oobleck has the craziest tests.
Weiss: well, if you studied like I told you, we wouldn't have had to retake that test.
Blake: what happened happened Weiss
Weiss sighed angrily, as Ruby hugged her from behind
Ruby: cheer up, Weiss. As team leader, I say we watch a movie!
Blake and Yang nod in agreement, as they suddenly see a large box in front of their dorm room. Weiss then turned to Ruby angrily, making the hooded girl back up with her hands up.
Weiss:*points to the box* Ruby, did you buy another box of spare parts for your Crescent Rose without permission again?!
Ruby: no no! I didn't purchase anything online!
Blake:*examines the box* she's right. It's got no return address, only this note
Blake shows the three the note as it says:
"To anyone it may concern"
Yang:... well that's weird. Think we should open it?
Weiss: heck no! We don't even know if it's ours.
Ruby: well we can't just leave it here. Someone could trip. Let's put it to a vote.
There were three dings and one buzzer sound as the four then brought the box inside.
(Linebreak)
The group was in their pjs and sat around the box. Ruby nodded to the other three, who respectively pulled out their weapons ready for anything.
Ruby flexed her hands, as she slowly moved them to the box. As she nervously cut the packaging tape, her hands shook as she grabbed the box's flowed through the air, as Ruby opened the box awaiting whatever was inside.
The four look inside to see a dvd, a cd, a collection of books, a piece of parchment, and finally a letter.
Ruby: *pulls out the letter* it's a letter.
The three looked at it before nodding to Ruby. She then opened the letter and began reading the papers contents.
"If anyone has found this package and is reading the note at this very moment I don't have much time to explain. Whoever finds this package will find information on my world as well as a dvd that contains all the chapters I have recorded, including the first eight trailers. They will be sent to whomever and wherever I cannot predict the world I live on (or once lived on) called Earth will eventually perish due to our ignorance in preserving and finding alternate fuel sources for better environmental safeties. Now we pay the price, for the end is coming soon and I predict dreadfully at this very moment. My final wish is that the contents inside be preserved. Please take good care of them. If you don't believe me and think this is some kind of prank, I don't blame you.
Sincerely,
The Dragon Knight"
Team RWBY was speechless, saddened that whoever sent this was the last of his kind hoping to preserve what remains of his civilization.
Ruby: so we gonna watch the video
Blake: we might as well
Yang: yeah.
The four put the DVD into a player on their tv and waited for the first chapter to begin.
(Start Watchdog Diner Kingdom of Vale's entertainment District)
Yang: hold on, isn't that Vale
Ruby: oh my Oum it is!
Blake: why is it showing us this?
*Insert Pokémon Colosseum OST Outskirt Stand
Ruby: what's that music?
Blake pulled out a cd labeled Soundtrack and places it in.
Yang: ooh this song is pretty good. I should copy this to my scroll later.
A young man with black spiked back hair was sitting on a chair wearing a white short sleeved jacket with red at the edges as over the left shoulder was shoulder armor. On either of his arms were armored Gauntlets with the fingers cut off for aesthetic reasons. He was wearing a skin tight black shirt which showed off his muscles a bit but still fit well enough to be used in combat and day to day activities. He was wearing pants akin to chaps as he also had heavy duty boots and knee guards as to bring the outfit together was a belt buckle with a red Triangle on it as there was a similar mark on the back of his jacket also.
His eyes were a piercing red as he seemed to be always in a good mood as he was then served some food on his table.
Yang: ooh! He looks nice
Blake: I have to agree
Ruby: ooh! Maybe he's a super strong Huntsman
Weiss: he looks the part
"Hey Gold order up!" The Waitress called as she rolled by on roller blades dropping a huge hamburger and a huge plate of fries as Gold smiled as even with his smaller teenage form many wondered what one guy would do with that kind of food.
Team RWBY thought the same exact thing.
Weiss: he's not really going to eat all that food, right?
Ruby: maybe he can beat Nora in an eating contest.
"Also when your done boss sent me out with the 'special,' for the day." She said as she dropped a plat with a red letter on it as Gold smiled.
Blake: a letter?
Yang: it feels like I'm watching a spy movie, I love it!
"Food and work in one day is it my birthday?" He asked as he then clapped his hands together. "Thank you oh Gods of the day which are the Twin Deities now I'm going to enjoy some major junk food." Gold said as this was Gold Strider a local vagabond, smart ass, and most of all the guy who lives upstairs in the diner as per rent agreement.
"You should really stop stuffing your body with that stuff." A voice was heard as Gold looked to the Madou Ring.
Weiss: d did his ring just talk?!
Ruby: so cool! It's an actual talking ring
Blake: I… don't know how I feel about this
Yang; well… that's new
"Yeah sure say the guy who knows I'm a Knight and can filter this stuff, Zaruba." Gold as he bathed his French fries in ketchup.
Weiss: so the ring is called Zaruba
Yang: did he just drown those fries in ketchup?
"Even Makai Knights have a limit Gold." Zaruba said as he looked to his partner.
Blake: Makai Knights?
Weiss: probably a group of Huntsmen
"Meh I'll find it when I get there." Gold said as Zaruba sighed at this.
"Why don't you have diabetes yet?" Zaruba asked as he may sound scolding but he is quiet talkative in fact.
The four laughed at his remark.
(A little later)
Gold's plates were soon empty as he grabbed the letter but not before letting out a burp as everyone looked to the guy wondering how he can eat so much and stay in shape. In fact where does he put it all when he eats it? "Excuse me folks." Gold said as he left to take care of something.
Weiss: that kid just ate an entire burger and a plate of fries
*End OST
(Outside)
Gold arrived outside as he took out his Madou Lighter as he found himself in the city of Vale once more as he smiled a bit. He lit the lighter revealing the message of the day as he smiled at it was a job. "A Horror kidnapping young children stripping them of innocent souls and human bodies before locking them away to devour their last remaining lights the following night is within your district go seek it out and cut away its Inga." Gold read as he smiled a bit as he can picture it now.
Team RWBY was both horrified and confused about what the heck is a Horror as well as why it would hurt innocent children.
Kick ass save the day and probably get a victory party for himself. "Alright let's get lucky!" Gold called as he clapped his hands together honestly happy to be alive.
Blake: he's very optimistic like Ruby
Ruby: yeah!
Gold then got on his motorcycle which had a very Zaruba like motif as it even had a Zaruba head piece as he grabbed his helmet which was a full head helmet and put it on before lowering the visor. "Let's go!" Gold called before he jammed Zaruba into the Ignition spot before turning him like a key and allowing Zaruba to vanish from his hand before the ignition closed and opened again to reveal Zaruba inside it now.
Yang: oh my gosh, his ring powers his super cool bike!
Ruby had stars in her eyes, practically drooling at the thought of the bike being a powerful weapon.
"Time to hunt." Zaruba said as the Motorcycle began to power on as its engine roared from a self-sustaining power source from the Makai Order and built by his own two hands and the hands of a very special someone in his past.
(Scene Break Vale Red Light District)
A very scared little girl no older than 5 or 6 and very much naked was being put into a dark container as it had air holes in it but it was sound proof as well so she can breathe but she can't call for help as she was in tears in a fetal position so she can fit into said supply box. "Don't worry little doll when it's all over no one will ever hurt you again." Came the queuing voice of a large man with a doll mask sewn onto his own face as the other children who were in cages saw this and knew what was going to happen to her now just like it did all the others.
Team RWB was trying to suppress Yang, who was red eyed and trying to punch the tv.
Yang: let me go! Let me Kill this bastard!
"P-please let me go home mister back to mommy and daddy." She begged as the man didn't listen as this was a true monster who believed himself in the right in some deranged and insane mindset no amount of therapy could fix no matter who tried their hand at it.
"It will all be over soon little tulip." He said in a very insane voice as he began to close shut the crate no doubt to get the little girl ready as she began to struggle a bit before crying wanting to be let out as no doubt fear and anxiety was over running her mind and she may very well end up traumatized by this turn of events if she somehow survives this night.
Ruby was somewhat terrified as the team began to comfort her.
(With Gold)
Gold was riding through traffic as he was making his way to the location of the Horror's location in Vale's red light district as Zaruba looked. "Any particular reason we're coming here first?" Zaruba asked as Gold smirked.
"The children going missing let's start with them if you look at the case file it would show there wasn't a pattern at all. I on the other hand found that pattern they all owned toys made right here in an old toy factory in Vale." Gold said as he eyed some of the entertainment places before continuing on the task at hand.
Blake: wow, he's got really good deduction skills
Weiss: all great hunstmen and huntresses must be smart
"Ok and what relevance was that… wait the Madou's checking them out said those Toys were tainted with darkness and some of them became gates." Zaruba said as Gold nodded.
"Yeap and in turn those toys convinced those kids to somehow leave there house without their parents knowing and go to a place where our query can find them." Gold said as Zaruba laughed a bit.
Yang: I won't lie when I say that's pretty scary
The other three girls nod in agreement.
"Heh you're getting smarter everyday Gold." Zaruba joked as Jonathan rode through the streets. "Now we just head there and get those kids and cut down a Horror and save the day." Gold said as Zaruba looked.
(Later at the Tiny Tots Toy Factory)
"Heh Horror Den material right here." Gold said as Zaruba looked.
"Be careful if you need me just call me up." Zaruba said as Gold got his sword from the bike which was in fact a very large sword as unlike the other Garo Bearers his sword seemed to be more akin to a huntsman weapon then anything.
"Got it." Gold called as he began to walk into the factory as he then kicked the door down or… open in this case since the door wasn't even locked or closed.
(Inside)
"Ok this place is Horror movie material." Gold said as he looked around as he checked out the scenery here what with the dark ominous area, unfinished dolls hanging around by chains missing their faces and rats running around scavenging for food.
Yang: you're telling us, Goldy
Ruby:*getting very nervous*
"I did a little diving into your scroll on the bike and apparently the original owner of this place was called Pink Valentine a psychopathic killer and pedophile. Was sent to prison 10 years ago by the testimony of his own son Magenta Valentine before he became a Horror and broke out and the Makai took care of him." Zaruba read to Gold through their mental link as Gold laughed a bit.
Weiss looked down, thinking about the sketchy things her father has done to the company.
"Heh like father like son huh?" Gold said as he saw a table with fresh blood on it with a sheet over something and surgical equipment. "Only the son is doing far worse than the father." Gold commented as he saw the place wasn't looking to good in the Horror's favor. "Last I heard Magenta took over his dad's business and did a damn good job fixing his shit before some shit happened and well viola." Gold said as he looked around the dark spooky abandoned toy factory.
Ruby: why did it have to be so scary?!
"Hello." Gold said as he noticed someone in a cage as he kneeled down to see a child as Gold was surprised by this as he had one thought. "Ok the Horror is going down." Gold said as he saw the kids look to the cage as they all wanted out as Gold saw a lot of them were still alive as they all hailed from human and Faunus origins. "Because he is so much like his dad victimizing children now." Gold said as he then felt it.
The four then shared the same thought: "put down this monster"
"You're worried about the little ones?" came a new voice as the kids all began to hide in fear as Gold glared at the voice's owner who was in a light area with childlike clothing clearly too small for him and a bucket of what looked like another failure's remains. "Don't be." He said dropping said bucket. "You see I love them more then you can ever know." The Horror said as he cracked his neck in a way that should have snapped it out of place.
Weiss: oh I think I'm gonna be sick
Blake: what kind of madman would hurt innocent children, Faunus and human?!
"Ok what do call I you Mr. Crazy Magenta or your true name Goruoe the Doll Making Horror?" Gold asked as the Horror stopped for a moment.
"You are… aware of me if that's the case I can't let you stop me only I can protect the little ones." He said in the deranged voice of he got to a chain before grabbing it and yanking it down hard causing many doors to open as Gold wasn't going to like what he was about to see. "And I've done everything in my power to help the little ones survive." Goruoe said as Gold glared at him when he saw the mutilated Children walk out as they had hands and limbs replaced by weapons surgically implanted into them, doll masks stitched upon their bodies, all in all these were no longer children that can be saved if they weren't Horror already.
Team RWBY all felt like they would puke at the sight. They all wanted the children's suffering to end.
The only way to save these feral little victims… is to end their suffering. "To survive in this sad cruel world we call Remnant." He said as Gold glared at him while the children walked out of the shadows.
*Insert Name is Garo by Jam Project
"Well congratulations you damn Horror." Gold began as he glared at Goruoe. "You managed to piss me off!" Gold yelled as he then lit his Madou Lighter to his large Garoken which he then got the blade on fire before he grinded the sword against the ground creating sparks as all the children who were mutilated their eyes responded as Gold saw these kids were beyond saving of any kind.
Ruby quickly got over her vertigo and had stars in her eyes at the flaming sword, making the others roll their eyes at their leaders antics.
"And I'll make you pay for what you did 10,000 times worse for every child you ruined!" Gold yelled as he took a battle stance.
RWBY: YEAH! SHOW HIM WHO'S BOSS!
"Protect me children as I have protected you." The Horror yelled out in its true voice as Gold then charged forward slashing through each Horror child turning there forms into ash to be sealed within the Garoken as he didn't go easy on them and chose to give them each quick and painless deaths as Gold was almost at the head Horror. But Gold had to avoid another child with two buzz saw hands as Gold looked to said child with pity.
"Sorry about this." He said as he knew the child was a Horror but it didn't make this any less harder in the long run. Gold then sliced the Horror child's head off before he could attack as he had to act fast. Luckily there was a police station nearby as he had an idea as he saw the crates and children.
Ruby: what's he doing?!
Blake: Ruby, he's trying to save the kids that haven't been turned, and gave the others a quick end.
Yang: yeah sis, he doesn't want them to suffer
Ruby: oh
"Hey kids duck and cover!" Gold yelled out as the kids heard this and ducked as Gold then sliced an Aura infused wide arc destroying the crates and cages as in the crates were to Gold's shock even more kids who was very much naked as some of them were still crying. "Run to the nearest Vale City police NOW!" Gold yelled as the kids all ran away as they saw he was covering their escape route as Gold glared at the Horror.
"No what have you done!" The Horror yelled as Gold glared at the Horror with hate in his eyes.
"Save lives." Gold said taking a battle stance.
Yang: badass hero quote
"Damn you Makai Knight!" The Horror yelled in fury as it roared at Gold as its entire face opened in a very monstrous way.
RWBY was grossed out by the horrors open face.
Gold then charged at the Horror forward transferring his Aura to his feet to get a major speed boost as he swung the Garoken at his prays side who then dodged the attack as it was pretty strong for a Horror all things considered. Gold then did a spin kick to the Horrors head with enough force to cause the neck to snap out of place as the Horror roared away as it glared at Gold with hate filled eyes and fury torts the Makai Knight. It then moved its head even more as soon the entire head itself was upside down as the girls were all scared of this turn of events. "Come!" Gold roared as the Horror's body soon burst out as the girls all screamed in fright as the Horror had made itself known as it was a very large body Horror as it may be lustful but it was very strong looking in appearance.
RWBY shared the girls fright and noticed that they were all hugging each other.
"And thus you show your true form." Gold began as he glared at the hated enemies that all Makai Knight relentlessly pursue with their armors. "Horror!" Gold roared as the Horror roared at Gold ready to end his life here.
*end OST
The Horror roared out and charged at Gold pushing him out of the factory as Gold saw Zaruba wasn't nearby no doubt having gone somewhere to hide out for a while as Gold understood Zaruba's train of thought. Gold used the Garoken's large form to block the attack as best he could as soon the two were outside where Gold hit a pillar for a road as Gold cried out in pain. Gold then raised a fist and socked the Horror square in the face breaking free from its grip and ran away a bit.
*Insert Garo Vanishing Line OST MTW
"Zaruba!" Gold called out as soon the motorcycle was heard as from above it hit the Horror away from him as Gold began to run for it as Zaruba followed close behind him.
Yang: now that is one epic bike.
Ruby: yeah…
Yang: Ruby, you're drooling again
Ruby blushed as she wiped her mouth
The Horror regained its bearings and chased after Gold intent of stopping him from getting aid to take HIS children from safety and sanctuary. Gold then got on Zaruba and began to drive off to the main road as the Horror chased after Gold but instead Gold returned to the main road as he could hear lecture he would get for this stunt later.
(On the Road)
"Gold the Horror is close on our tail!" Zaruba called as Gold knew he didn't have much of a choice here.
"This was a bad idea." Gold said as he saw the Horror close on his tail.
Yang: this definitely feels like when we fought Torchwick in that Paladin
Weiss: eerily familiar
Ruby: except without the robot
Blake: and instead a giant monster
"You think!?" Zaruba scolded as Gold rolled his eyes as he drove through the streets. Gold was coming to another car which was a car as Gold wasn't nervous as he had done this enough times to know what to do. Gold easily weaved around said car as despite the Motorcycles size Gold was very agile with this Makai Machine. Soon Gold made sure to get the car out of the way by kicking it hard causing it to swerve and avoiding the Horror chasing him as Gold then acted and pulled a U-Turn on one wheel as the Horror ended up chasing him as Gold began to drive the right way on the main yet empty night road.
Gold soon saw the Horror going after more cars as he cursed as he turned around and picked up speed as he wasn't about to let the Horror get its way as he chased down the Horror once more as he saw the Horrors had some humans it had begun to eat to sedate its hunger and heal itself. Gold weaved through every Sato-Mobile in his way quiet easily as he once more drew forth the Garoken ready to finish this fight. While allowing the blade to grind and create sparks on the highway as he rode torts his query to finish this hunt. Gold went for his pray using a crashed car as a ramp to go for the kill as he went as far as to draw out his Dust magnum which was a large barreled revolver and fired at the Horror causing it harm with Dust and Makai Seal bullets. Then Gold's Motorcycle hit the Horror in the face by the wheel as Gold gave a small smirk before revving the engine causing the wheel to spin and in turn shredding through any protective armor and shell the Horror had. Gold then had the bike jump off the Horror from a burst boost and then he charged at Goruoe again stabbing into it as the rope down the main road.
"Let's get you out of sight!" Gold called as Zaruba sighed while Gold sailed down the road with his duster being blown in the wind while said wind blew against Gold's face as this speed force felt nice for Gold even if he would never confess it to anyone besides family and friends as the fighting and the driving was dueling his heart with a huge fire to burn off.
"Yare, Yare Daze how reckless of you Gold." Zaruba sighed as he wondered how Garo could choose such a reckless boy as its host sometimes.
*End OST
*Insert Garo Vanishing Line OST GARO
The Horror was bashing against the road as Gold was probably breaking a good number of speeding laws as he raced down the road with the Horror caught on the Garoken before Gold began to come across the closed and deserted City square as he saw here was good enough as it had enough roads for him to fight in and was deserted enough to keep any possible witnesses from seeing the Horror.
Yang: ok that's really cool
"This is your stop!" Gold roared as he then used the Garoken to fling the Horror upward as he then slammed the Garoken to the main park area of the area where most event were held which helped him do a U-Turn revealing his Garoken was very different from any other Garo's Garoken form. Gold then performed a large motorcycle doughnut as in doing so he cut open a large circle which then opened to a portal as soon Gold was changed as he was endowed in the armor many holders of this title had warn for generations.
Weiss: what's he doing? He's just turning and-
Before she could finish, she saw the portal and how Gold changed into armor and it left her speechless. Ruby however was turned on by the armor and the brand new sword.
This Horror was very heroic looking as it was as if the Knight had become western as his had two large scarves and vein like areas that seem capable of glowing. (FYI It's the Garo form currently in use for Garo Vanishing Line.)
But now his Motorcycle has changed as only one other Garo within the history of the Golden Knight has ever had a Motorcycle like this as it transformed with the Zaruba head piece growing and its eyes glowing read as now the motorcycle was gold and shining just as bright as Garo's armor as this was Zaruba's new combat form.
Yang: now that's a bike. I want one
"I don't get many partners who I have to fight side by side with boy do times change." Zaruba said as the Knight skidded the Motorcycle to a halt as the symbol for Garo wielded by all Golden Knights who came before that Remnant honors Gold by the name of the Knight of light and legends. Golden Knight:
GARO!
Garo began to ride circles around the Horror as he did a wheelie and attacked as spikes came out of the front wheel and damaged the Horror known as poison even more than before.
RWBY cheered as Garo damaged the monster
"GOLDEN KNIGHT BUT HOW!?" The Horror roared in pain as Garo was the Grim Reaper for many Horrors. The Only Knight that was truly feared by the Horrors of the Makai.
"Let's finish this!" Garo roared out as he began driving fast around the Horror as vent even opened up on his Motorcycle with Zaruba's head piece mouth area releasing green flames as the vents released a powerful burst of hot air as Garo began fast strikes against the Horror before driving away and doing a U-Turn. "Horror Sealed!" Garo roared out as he activated a form of nitro on his Motorcycle and charged straight at the Horror leaving a trail of green flame tire tracks as Garo stabbed into the Horror and cut it in two as he this night ended a Horror's reign of terror but he just hoped those kids walk away in one piece.
"Damn you… DAMN YOU GOLDEN KNIGHT GARO!" The Horror roared in fury as its body became ash and was absorbed into the Garoken to be sealed away accordingly.
Yang: AWE YEAH!
Ruby: GOLDEN KNIGHT GARO FOR THE WIN!
(Meanwhile Beacon)
"Professor are you sure he's one of the four we need?" Came the voice of a blond haired deputy headmistress and combat teacher Glynda Goodwitch.
"I'm sure Glynda he may be reckless and at times irresponsible but Garo wouldn't have chosen him if he wasn't worthy or had potential." Ozpin said as he looked at the screen of the entire fight earlier.
RWBY: wait, Glynda?! Ozpin?!
"But you heard the Watchdog she even tried to advice you against gaining his aid." Glynda said as she looked to Ozpin.
"Well I do in fact believe he can do the task needed with the right team of course." Ozpin said as he looked to the screen.
"Very well I shall see about contacting him." Glynda said as she took her leave.
(Scene Break the next morning)
A crowd had gathered after hearing the commotion Gold and his hunt had caused as in the crowd was a young woman in a black cloak glaring at the entire scene as reporters were already here trying to get statements as he glared.
"Gold… you damn reckless idiot." The 17 year old woman said as her mouth was covered by her coat as she couldn't have this happen here with a hood over her head hiding who she was.
Ruby: ooh! She's got to be the next character
(Later with Gold)
Gold was driving down the road again as Zaruba looked to his partner and knew one thing from the stubborn, reckless, but one Hell of a new Golden Knight. "Let me guess your next line Zaruba is that was reckless dangerous and stupid what you did am I right?" Gold said as Zaruba chuckled.
"Yes and nice try with that gag won't work a second time on me." Zaruba said as Gold shrugged.
Yang: weird gag
"Had to try." Gold said as Zaruba looked.
"Now then what is our next stop?" Zaruba asked as Gold smiled.
"Where ever a Horror feeds we'll be there to hunt it down." Gold called out with a cocky smile on his face.
"Then lead the way." Zaruba said as he drove off to find his next great Horror hunt unaware of what fate has in store for him as it all starts for him with a smaller more honest soul.
(Trailer 1 Gold End)
Ruby: ok that was a great trailer
Weiss: I have to agree
Blake: hey I found a profile for the cast
The group looked at Blake who pulled out a tablet device. On it showed the following:
Makai Knight Team

A
Beacon Student profile:
Name: Gold Strider
Age: 17
Alias: Golden Knight Garo, Remnant's luckiest Knight
Semblance: Good Luck Charm
Semblance ability: This Semblance activates at random as must like Qrow Branwen's own Semblance Gold's Semblance provides the holder with incredible Good Luck for a short moment in time before shutting down. The Semblance activates at random so it would be wise not to become dependent on it.
Origin: The latest inheritor of the Golden Title of Garo. His Armor had to adjust itself to fit its new master and the Priests of the order provided him with his mode of transportation as a method to now only see if a Knight can use something beyond a Madou Horse but also give the Madougu a chance to aid there partners in battle and thus far only Gold Strider with Garo has been able to pull such a combo off. Never really lets things get to him but when he's alone at times that's when things truly start getting to him. He may hide behind smiles and laughs but the truth is he's much more deeper and complex then the surface.
Yang: ok we got seven more trailers to go and we have information on each character so onto the next trailer!
RWB: YEAH!
