Chapter One: Amazon.
Tell me, what's your favorite fairy tale? Do you believe in fairy tales? And more important: What would you think if I told you that the story it's real?
Everything started a thousand years ago, the humans that lived in that time had recently discovered the dust, and how they could use it against the menace of the Grimm. The first huntsmen appeared. For the first time in years, the humans had peace, and for once, they weren't defenseless against the Grimm.
The years passed, the humans reclaimed territory and began building the first kingdoms, everything looked to be changing for better. However, it was during that time that a new menace appeared, and remembered the humans that there's always something bigger and worst.
This new enemy was different, it was powerful and intelligent, even the Grimm couldn't compare to this new enemy. The huntsmen and the dust, which once helped to move back the Grimm, proved to be ineffective against this new menace. Once again humanity felt terror and despair.
Everything seemingly was lost for the people, and some thought that the time of the humans had come.
Yet, in that same time, is that a light surged in middle of the dark.
A warrior, like no one had ever seen before, appeared in the darkest moment, and helped humanity to fight against this dark enemy.
The mysterious warrior was maybe as powerful as the enemy they were fighting, it's said that it could defeat armies of Grimm with no problems, and any enemy that was sent against him, it was defeated in mere minutes.
In the end, this mysterious warrior, along the rest of huntsmen that managed to survive, launched a last attack against their mighty enemy, in the end, they managed to defeat it and bring back peace to the world.
During the next years, the warrior helped the rest of humans in rebuild everything they lost, he dealt with the Grimm that were in the ruined cities, and eventually in the next decades, everything came back to the normal. The people, now, continued living with only the menace of the Grimm at the borders of their towns.
After this, the mysterious warrior disappeared, only to not be seen again. This story, unfortunately, was forgotten with the time, and very few people remember it in the modern world.
However, it's also said, that when the world of Remnant founds itself again in the shadows, the mysterious warrior will appear again.
Unknown to many people, maybe, that time will come sooner than expected…
And maybe, in the time Remnant needs it the most.
This is the beginning of the story, of four persons, who have received the power of this warrior.

? POV
I could feel a beam of light in my face, as I slowly opened my eyes… Where was I? What happened? And, why did my head hurt so much?
I slowly got up as I seated on the ground, I felt in my hands the soft glass of the ground, as I opened my eyes, I found myself surrounded by tall trees and bushes, I recognized that I was on a forest.
Okay, first of all, I'm in a forest, second and third… I can't remember what has happened nor why I was in this kind of state.
I know that I was on a 'travel' if you could call it that, my companions and I had been moving for a long time, since…the attack… Wait a moment, my companions, where were they?
I looked at my surroundings, supposing that I would find somebody, or at least some tracks that told me if a human figure was near me, however, I couldn't find anyone else apart from me.
That was bad, we had reasons to stay together, the Grimm being a reason of why we had to, but there were some other reasons, which I won't explain right now.
Cyan Woodgate, Gray Storm and Noir Spectrum, those were my companions with who I have been together for a long time. Along with me, Alex Ventum, we formed Team CANG (Arcane).
"Well…" I said to myself. "I won't find anyone if I continue standing here." I concluded. "I should get going, let's hope that the others are also okay." Immediately after saying that, I walked away from the place, trying to find my companions, whenever they were.
While I was walking, I revised my equipment, I was wearing a red T-shirt with the design of a green lizard, and over it I wore a green jacket, that it had a darker shade of green near the zip, on my collar, I wore simple a red scarf, with an end going down my back, that it had a small green design of two swords colliding with each other and a flame enveloping them this was my symbol. I also wore dark blue jeans and a pair of brown combat boots. On my left hand, I wore a large black leather glove that went all the arm up to the elbow.
And if you're wondering how it's my face, I simply had brown, messy hair, and a pair of red eyes. I was 16 years old.
Finally, on my back I had a large sword. Its name was 'Final Edge', and I had it on a black sheath. The grip of the sword is of a simple brown, the cross guard looked like an inverted omega letter, the border parts being of a light green while the interior was of a blood red, between the crossguard and the edge, there was a dark green cartridge where there was fire and ice dust and thanks to a button on the grip, I could change the type of dust that I wanted to use. Finally, the blade had the same colors as the crossguard, it was mostly green except in the center where it was also of a blood red color.
Finally, the last thing that I was wearing, was a belt on my waist, however, it wasn't like most of the belts, it was mostly of a metallic black color, on the front part, there was two knobs, that were mostly red, except for the edges, that had a metallic grey color, and finally, a 'head' as I would describe it, that was placed over the knobs and had a pair of round eyes.
Along with the belt, I also wore an armlet on my left arm, near the shoulder and which was covered by my jacket. It was of a light gray color, and had a head design with a pair of glowing light blue eyes.
Now, back to my search, I don't know how much time I must have been walking, maybe an hour? I can't say exactly how much time I must have been walking, since I felt my feet perfectly fine.
I continued walking until I heard a sound, I turned slowly looking for what did make that sound, and I saw a shaking bush.
"Guys?" I asked, looking for a response, but the only response I got was of the bush that continued shaking. "Are you there?" I slowly approached, until I heard a growl, I put immediately on alert and rolled to the right, just in time to evade a charging creature with only one intent: kill.
"Nope, definitely it isn't them." I told myself, looking at what had attacked me. It looked like a wolf, however, its size was bigger than the normal one, it had a completely black fur and a pair of glowing red eyes, and finally, some kind of bone armor covering its body, this was a Beowolf, a basic Grimm, and if you don't know what a Grimm is, let's put it simple: creatures of darkness with the only purpose to kill Humans and Faunus.
"Well then, should we begin?" I said as the Beowolf charged at me once again, but this time I was prepared, and when it was only some feet away from me, I unsheathed Final Edge from my back and launched an upwards slash at the creature, sending it back.
Not wanting to waste more time I charged at the Beowolf this time, the creature imitated my action in response. A moment before it could hit me with its claws, I quickly sidestepped and launched another upwards slash at the creature, this time I cut it in half through the torso.
"I guess that settles that." I told myself and began placing my blade back on its sheath, before I completed that action however, I noticed more growls and saw three pair of glowing red eyes approaching me.
Me and my big mouth.
I quickly rolled away, evading one of the Beowolves attack, I then tried to sidestep to evade another attack, but this time I couldn't evade entirely the attack, the claw of the Beowolf managed to hit me on my right arm. However, I didn't get a single scratch thanks to my Aura.
"Okay, even though you haven't made me bleed, I will make sure to return the favor." I said as the third Beowolf launched itself against me, but this time I wasn't going to evade it, I pressed the button in the grip of my weapon to use ice dust, and in a moment I had stabbed the blade on the ground, creating an ice wall that the Beowolf ended crashing. The hit cracked it, but with not enough strength to shatter it.
I focused back onto the other two, I raised my sword to block a claw of one of the approaching Beowolves, and subsequently ducked so I could evade the attack from the other Beowolf. I did a backflip to create some distance between us, I pressed the button on the grip again, changing to fire dust. Immediately after landing on my feet, the dust activated and set the blade on fire, and a charging Beowolf received a fire enveloped slash from me that ended with it.
The other two Beowolves lunged at me, one approached running while the other jumped at me a few feet away. Still with my blade enveloped on fire I did a downwards slash, sending a wave of fire at the two creatures that lit their fur and began burning them. Without giving opportunity to recover, I charged at one of the two, and jumped forward, hitting it with a downwards stab. I quickly turned against the last Beowolf, which wasn't much problem and I killed it with a simple diagonal slash from Final Edge.
"Alright, can't forget that I'm in Grimm territory." I remembered. "Geez, this was why we shouldn't be separated, now that I think about it, how the heck is that this happened?" I asked myself remembering that particular fact, I knew that last night we were fighting, but I didn't have much more. After that, everything was burry for me. The only particular memory that I had was a bright light before everything went dark.
I prepared myself to leave, trying to remember what happened last night, why we ended separated, and also remembering all the Grimms that were out there and that I might end finding apart from those Beowolves: Ursas, Creeps, Boarbatusks, Death Stalkers, King Taijitu, Nevermores… The list goes on.
After walking and thinking for a while, I focused again on my surroundings, and saw some things that called my attention. In the place I was right now there were some trees that were cut by the trunk, along with some remains of fire on the glass and leafs of the trees, and some places of the ground were without grass which showed the earth of the ground.
"What the heck happened here?" I asked myself while inspecting the site, between some things that I could see where remains of blood, however it wasn't of the Grimm, what was here was of something else, the blood was of different colors, between them there was yellow and blue ones. Seeing them immediately got me a feeling of disgust, I knew from what it was, and also, from what I could tell, this was the place where I was fighting yesterday along with the others. If I was here, then, how is that I ended that far?
Looking into the place once again, I began to seek for something that told me where the others where, and this time I managed to find a track.
It was inside some kind of crater, an explosion must have caused it, maybe there was an explosion and that managed to send me flying through the forest? I can't say it for certain, though I still can't discard that posibility. Inside the crater was the silhouette of a person, along with some prints of boots that moved outside the crater and went towards the south.
I had found something, and hopefully, I would find one of my companions soon. I began running, following the footprints.
But another growl had to interrupt myself once again.
I turned to my left, only to find a big Grimm in front of me, unlike the Beowolves of Earlier, this one had the appearance of a bear, and had bone spikes sprouting from its back, an Ursa… Great.
The Ursa let out a roar before hitting an unprepared me with its left claw, sending me flying a few feet before crashing with a tree, and I have to say that even with an Aura, a hit like that one still hurts pretty much.
Resisting the pain, I put myself back on my feet and prepared my sword while the Grimm began moving towards me. I began my move: I ran towards it and changed back to ice dust. When I was only some centimeters away from it I let my body fall to the ground, evading the claw that the Ursa sent at me, I dashed through the floor and used my sword to freeze its legs.
I put myself back on my feet again, and charged at the immobile Grimm… Or so I thought.
The ice that I created wasn't thick enough, and the Ursa managed to break out of the ice that I used to immobilize it, which left myself unprepared to receive another claw hit from the creature that sent me flying back until I landed backwards against the floor. As if that wasn't enough, the hit also made me drop my weapon.
"Crap!" I yelled as I tried to stand up as fast as possible, but the Ursa moved faster, and positioned itself over me so I couldn't escape and left me defenseless.
The Grimm roared in front of my face before trying to bit my head, I barely managed to put my hands infused with my Aura in front of me to hold its head back, while the creature tried to approach more but finding no results, but neither I had a way to escape.
The Ursa lunged its head back as it tried to bite me again, while I simply could put my aura infused hands to protect me. However, even with all this, I wasn't in panic, and even though I was without my weapon, I knew how to take care of this.
"You…" I began as we continued our struggle. "Won't… EAT… ME!" Right after yelling that last part in an inhuman voice, I moved my left hand back in a fist, as the other continued to hold the Ursa back, I then punched the Ursa on its head with my gloved hand, and, surprisingly, sent it flying some feet away as now I was free from its 'grip'.
Yes, I sent an Ursa flying with a punch, how the hell did I do that? That will be explained later.
Another roar made me take position once again, I turned my head only to find the Ursa approaching me again. Reacting fast, I went to grab my weapon, I prepared to end this fight once for all. It was time to use my semblance.
After getting back my sword I held it with both hands, and it was suddenly enveloped completely in some kind of golden fire. When the fire died down I had two swords, one in each of my hands, both looking as a half of my original sword and had a cylindrical handle on both of them. This was my semblance, as I called it: 'Modeling'.
My sword originally couldn't divide into two, however, my semblance allowed me to mold practically anything while I had the necessary materials temporally, the only restriction being both my imagination, and capacity to mold one thing into another. As an example, I could transform my sword as I had done recently, simply needing to divide the sword in two equal parts and turn the semi-cylindrical handle into a full cylinder. However I still hadn't reached the control of it to transform one thing into another completely different like a spear or an axe. I would also show more of what I could do later.
Moving back to the fight, I prepared myself as the Ursa moved directly to me. I jumped back to evade its attack, and then I charged back, I pressed the button on both swords to use dust, and enveloped them on fire and cold ice in the sahpe of a second skin for my sword. I delivered a fire slash at its side with my left sword as I passed the Ursa, and then rotated in 180 degrees to deliver two slashes at its rear, the ice from my sword shattering on the impact, making the beast roar in pain. In response, the Ursa turned to me and tried to hit me with its claws, but I parried the attack using both swords, and activated again the ice dust, I then stabbed the Ursa's paw with my right blade, and then used the ice dust to create ice so it would keep it pinned to the ground for a moment. I followed jumping high onto the air, activating my semblance again to transform my weapon back onto its original form, and finally went back down to deliver a powerful downwards slash at the Ursa's throat, finally killing it.
I breathed after ending with that fight, and sheathed my weapon again. After doing that, I looked at my gloved hand, I always was wearing a leather glove to cover it, since I had no more option, if somebody saw what there was behind that glove, it would freak out. I took the glove, and removed it from my hand, and saw what was behind it: my left hand wasn't a human one. All the part from my hand to my forearm was mostly green, with some reddish brown parts, it looked like some kind of lizard paw, but at the same time, it was completely different, it had some sharpened claws and the skin was completely different to anything it has been seen. The only thing that I really liked of having this hand, was the incredible strenght that it had compared to my other hand, thing that also made me a dangerous adversary at hand to hand combat.
Why I had a hand that was so…unique to say something good, it was for a very particular reason.
I wasn't human, or, at least, not entirely. I was an Amazon. That was the word that they used to refer to me… And the rest of my companions.
What were we? To put it simply, my companions and I are here to save the world, we had to be the best of the best, and even if we didn't want it, the weight of Remnant was over our shoulders.
That was also the reason to why I could react incredibly fast on some situations, since I was part Amazon my reflexes were better than others, but at the same time it was a double edged sword. If I lost control to my instincts someway, I could go on a rampage and probably kill everything that stood in my way, thankfully, that was for what my equipment was created. The armlet was made to keep my instincts on the line, and secure that I wouldn't go on a rampage. As for the belt...it was for something else, but I couldn't use it now, it was supposed that I only would use the belt on emergencies, and right now I wasn't in one.
Snapping myself out of those thoughts, I moved back to the prints of before. I looked at the direction that the prints were moving, until they were lost on the depths of the forest, it looks that I would have a large day ahead if I was planning to find my friends again. I simply let out a sigh and put my glove back on my hand before running in the direction of the footprints.
Hours later:
Gods, this was practically annoying, I have been walking for practically all the day, and I'm still walking into nowhere, I let out another sigh thinking about the routine that I have been doing all the day, walking for nearly an hour, resting for some minutes and then doing the same again. I hadn't eaten anything in all day, and although the fact that being an Amazon granted me a good physical resistance, I was now feeling my legs getting tired. Finally, as if it wasn't enough, it was getting dark, and I wouldn't be capable of continue my 'travel' in the middle of the night.
So, I simply did what I had to do: I collected some leafs, I did an improvised bed with them and decided to go to sleep. I didn't lit a fire since I was on a place filled with Grimm, something that could attract them and that was the last thing that I wanted, especially if I was going to sleep. I closed my eyes and thought of the things that happened during the day, with those thoughts around my head, I finally fell asleep.
I don't know how much time I was asleep, but the fact is that I awakened still surrounded by the dark of the night, I looked at the sky, between the branches and leafs of the tree, and managed to see the shattered moon of Remnant, the light from the moon barely penetrated into the forest, and I mostly saw dark. Without reasons to stay awake, I prepared myself to go to sleep again, but I stopped when I saw something in the dark, and it wasn't anything good.
"Oh, shit!" I cursed myself.
There, in the dark, I saw a great number of pairs of red dots looking at me. I was surrounded by creatures of Grimm, as if I hadn't enough for a day.
I took out my sword and took a stance, the Grimm started approaching me until I could see what I was going to fight, mostly Beowolves and Ursas, this time also with some Alphas, and something like two or three Ursas Major.
I smirked and took a challenging look at them, and then I let out a growl, noticeable enough for them to hear. I wasn't afraid of them, if something, they should be the ones afraid of me.
"What are you waiting for!?" I challenged them, as they let out their roars as a response. "Come for me!"
It looks that was enough for them to begin attacking me. One Beowolf lunged at me immediately, but I simply punched it with my left gloved hand and sent it aback, crashing onto a tree, it looks that was enough to kill it. After that, another one charged me, but I took my sword and rolled to my left to then hit the Beowolf with a horizontal slash, proceeding to then deliver a downwards diagonal slash to the left, that's 2 down.
I used my semblance to transform it onto the two sabers mode, but now I also did another change, the crossguard and handle were changed so the sword looked like a sword and gun hybrid, while also reducing the size of the blade, since I had to use some metal of my blades in order to mold correctly the mecanism of the guns. I stabbed the blades on the floor and then took out two magazines from the pockets of my jacket, inserting them on the gun parts. Now I had two Beowolves and an Ursa coming at me, I focused first on the charging Ursa and shoot him with two bullets on its eyes, blinding it, I then quickly turned to the Beowolves as I summersaulted them and prepared fire dust on one blade and ice on the other and slashed in the air, sending a fire wave at one, and some icicles at the other giving some important damage and stunning them before I charged and gave delivered two slashes at their sides, ending with them as I refocused back onto the Ursa and stabbed its head with both blades, 3 more down.
Now six Beowolves charged at me. I took the magazines from the gun parts, and used my semblance again to transform back my sword onto its normal form, why? Because it was time to reveal a secondary function of my weapon. The blade suddenly lenghtened, showing that it was divided in various sections connected together.
I slashed in a circular manner around me, and my blade grew once again in size, because the various sections of my sword were tied together by some wires as if it was a whip. I used this function to hit them from distance, hitting them repeatedly until they were also down.
Now two Ursas charged at me as I used the fire dust to envelop my blade on fire, and then used the whip functionality and slashed at one multiple times before it could approach more. I then did a backflip on the air and summersaulted the other Ursa and used ice dust, as the blade now it was enveloped in cold air. I slashed on the air, which sent a large icicle at the Ursa's throat which immobilized it, I then fell and slashed it with Final Edge on the neck, cutting its head off. The other Ursa was on my back after my last action, and positioned itself onto its back paws and prepared to hit me with its claws, but before it could do it, I slashed at it a single time at its exposed stomach to kill it, that's two more down.
"Is this really a challenge?" I asked as if I was expecting a response from the rest of Grimm. "Because I was expecting more."
This looked to be enough, since the rest of the Grimm began their attack. A great number of Beowolves came at me, probably an entire pack, along with four Ursas.
Before they reached me, I jumped into the air and activated my semblance again, transforming my weapon into its two sword guns form, I inserted the magazines onto place and let loose a barrage of bullets at the approaching Grimm in all directions, taking some of them before falling to the floor, in that moment four Beowolves were about to hit me. Unfortunately for them, I rotated in 360 degrees, doing a circular slash that ended with them.
Just after that, an Ursa was about to hit me, with claws ready, but before it could touch me, I activated the ice dust and stabbed my left blade onto the floor, creating a large icicle that surged from the floor which stabbed the Ursa through the torso, I then cut its head with the other blade.
However, more Beowolves were charging at me, I reacted fast and slashed some of them, killing them immediately, but I couldn't take care of all the charging group, since some of them managed to hit me on my legs and torso, my aura took care of the damage, but I don't think that I would resist much more like that.
The Beowolves that I didn't kill earlier charged at me again, I prepared my swords in response. One of the approaching ones found itself with its head cut from a slash of my left sword, another one tried to bite me from the right, but I raised my right sword to block its attack and sent it away, but I didn't block another one that came from the back who slashed me with its claws, my aura blocked the attack, but I still felt the hit. I turned back and let a diagonal slash from my right blade in response, another one came from my left but I simply stabbed it right in the mouth with my left blade. Unfortunately for me, an Ursa came from my blank point and hit me with its paw with enough force to send me flying.
I tried to stand up, but I was still dizzy from the attack of the Ursa, my semblance cancelled itself making Final Edge transform back to its normal form. The Grimm were running at me again, and now I was an easy prey to them, or so they thought.
A Beowolf was only a meter away, and had its claws prepared to deal the final blow, but before it could hit me I rolled to the right, the Grimm turned to me and prepared itself again, but before it could do anything, I sent a left punch at the Beowolf that sent it flying, after that I simply stood up in middle of them, the rest of the Grimm regrouped around me.
"Alright, you guys have pissed me now!" I exclaimed at them, but they growled at what I said, neither one moving back. "So, you the Grimm don't feel fear, do you?" I sheathed Final Edge on my back, as I put my left hand on the left knob of my belt.
I gave them an evil smirk as I saw the Grimm around me, they let out a roar before charging at me once again. "Then, I will show you something to be afraid of!" I exclaimed as I turned the knob forward and back again, making the eyes of the driver lit in red light.
OMEGA!
I let out a roar as they charged at me.
"AMAZON!" I exclaimed with force, as I then was surrounded in light green flames as it let out a heat wave at the incoming Grimm that sent them flying back, some of them crashing on the nearby trees.
Evolu-E-Evolution!
The flames eventually died down, and revealed a new, humanoid figure, green and black skin, with some red markings, the chest being of a fair skin color, it had big red eyes and a silver mouthpiece in a green head with also red markings, black hands and boots with blades on them. The armlet was visible on its left arm, the red scarf also was on its collar and Final Edge was still sheathed on its back, the Driver was on its waist.
This was my 'true form', Amazon Omega.
After the fire died down, I let out a big roar, this time however, some Grimm surprisingly felt afraid of my presence and retired from the place, only a bunch continued where I was.
"Hunt… Start!" I exclaimed as I quickly charged at an Ursa, for the Grimm I wasn't more than a blur on that moment, when I reached it I punched the Grimm with so much force that I obliterated its head completely, the body fell to the ground a second after that before starting to dissipate.
Then, one of the Ursa Major charged, while it was charging, I grabbed the right knob of the driver and pulled it out of place, forming a lance that I held in my right hand.
Violent Break!
I threw the spear at the incoming Ursa, impaling it with enough force to send it back along with the weapon, the spear continued flying until it found a tree on its path, the Ursa Major that was impaled by the spear let out a final growl before dying out and dissolving.
More Beowolves came by the back, but once they were at range, I punched one of them, sending it flying back, another one met a roundhouse kick from me, and another charging one received a hit from my elbow. A last Beowolf lunged at me, but I responded with a reverse roundhouse kick, stabbing it with the blades of my boots and leaving it on the floor bleeding, I didn't give it more attention since it would die soon.
Now I found the Alphas and the rest of the Ursa Major charging at me. Acting quickly against an approaching Alpha Beowolf, I grabbed the left knob of the driver and turning it forward and back onto position again.
Violent Punish!
The blades on my forearms extended and I jumped into the air at the same time an Alpha Beowolf imitated my action, I slashed at it with the blades on my right forearm and then landed on the floor to repeat the same action at another incoming Alpha with my left forearm, two sounds of blood spilling could be heard as both Grimm were cut in half.
Immediately following, I grabbed again the right knob of the driver and pulled it out, but this time in place of a spear, a sickle was formed instead. I approached it to the place where the knob originally was, I activated my semblance again making the black liquid from the Driver move around my weapon, the sickle grew in size until it become a scythe with a proportion more akin to my size.
This was an advantage of my semblance, since the weapons are formed for the black sustance that the Driver produces, I could bring out more of the sustance to make my weapons bigger.
With a fast slash, I cut the rest of the approaching Alphas. Now only the Ursas Major remained, I took the scythe with my left hand and took Final Edge with my right and lunged at both, I delivered two quick horizontal slashes at them, one for each of my weapons at the same time both Grimm tried to hit me with its claws, but I simply passed them without receiving damage.
For a moment it looked as if my attacks didn't do anything to them, until a second after, both Ursas were cut in half and began to dissipate.
I simply stared at my rampage, I then turned to the rest of the Grimm that remained, the Beowolves were slowly moving back, they didn't show any sign of fear since they continued with their growls. I sent them a loud roar in response, which made them begin running away from the place
"I suppose that has been enough for them to not come near me again." I told myself as the Grimm were disappearing into the darkness. "That has been enough for a night." I was about to deactivate my transformation, but before I did that an explosion could be heard on the distance. Immediately after hearing that I jumped high, higher than the trees of the forest using my amazon upgraded abilities to see from where the explosion came, finding a red light on the distance between the trees that soon dissipated, I landed back on the ground, and after that, I jumped into the trunk of a tree, in less of a second I jumped onto another of the trees and so on I moved in the direction where I saw the light. My instincts weren't fooling me, I knew one of my companions was the cause of that light.
I continued jumping until I saw the spot between the trees where I saw the light and I stopped on a branch. I saw a horde of Grimm, this time however, instead of Ursas, I saw two King Taijitus and some Beowolves surrounding a figure. I didn't manage to see it as it suddenly disappeared in a bolt of lightning that moved between the Grimm and began slaughtering all the Beowolves that found on its pace until it stopped in the same spot as before.
The figure was humanoid, but it was much more lizard-like, it was mostly red with some green scars on its body, its chest was white and had multiple scars on it unlike the rest, this ones remained with its white color, its boots were black more thick than mine, but they didn't have the blades that I had, its forearms were also black in color and also more thick than mine, it had claws unlike me and its blades looked like wings and on its back it had a large black wing, finally, its head looked pretty much as a lizard one, it was mostly red with some green scars and a mouth without teeth along with rounded green eyes. Its driver was pretty much like me, but the 'head' was grey, and the eyes were also green like the ones on its head, on its hands. There were two black metal gauntlets that covered completely his hands and the fingers ended in small metallic claws, and continued up to his elbow, with a rectangular space at the forearms that left free his forearm fins, it also had a barrel with different types of dust that went around his forearm. This was one of my friends: Noir Spectrum, also known as Amazon Alpha, the gauntlets that he used, were called 'Earth Shadow'.
A second after he stopped, one of the King Taijitu lunged after my friend, but I wouldn't let it do that. I jumped at one of the heads, the white one to be exact, of the charging Grimm, I took out the right knob of the Amazons Driver again as this time I had a small blade in my hand, but I used my semblance to transform it onto a greatsword and stabbed the head while I dived down and finally landed.
The Head let out a sound of pain as it shake itself trying to get me off of it, but I managed to keep me on it using the weapon as a support so it wouldn't throw me away. Unfortunately the other head noticed what happened and stopped its charge to lunge at me, but I noticed just in time to jump off of the Grimm as the black head of the King Taijitu bit nothing and landed just aside of my companion.
"Alex?" Alpha asked after he saw me land on the ground.
"The one and the same." I responded at his question before turning to the rest of the Grimm surrounding us.
My companion let out a little laugh before asking me: "What took you so long to join the feast?"
"First of all, I had to deal with my own 'feast' until a little ago." I answered, thinking on the Grimm that I had to deal with before. "Second, I landed on another part of this forest away from the rest, now that I think about it…" I stopped after reminding that last part and began looking everywhere. "Where are the others and how is that I ended there?"
"For your first question, I don't know, you're the first I have found since I awoke in the forest." He responded.
"Wait… So you also awoke in the forest alone?" I questioned him.
"Yes, and I also don't remember how is that I ended there to answer your second question." Alpha continued before turning back to the growling Grimm that we had surrounding us. "So, I take the ones of the left and you the ones on the right?" He asked me.
"Count with it!" I exclaimed before charging at the Grimm with Final Edge unsheathed and now holding it on my right hand.
I slashed at the first Beowolf that I found on my path before sidestepping to avoid the attack of another one which I lunged and stabbed once I had the opportunity. I then jumped high to avoid the attack of one of the heads of a King Taijitu, more concretely, the same one that I hurt before and landed on the trunk of a tree.
"So you want to end with what I started, don't you?" I asked as the two heads hissed at me before the white head tried to bite me, however I jumped just in time to avoid the attack of the white head at the same time I used ice dust to freeze it as it remained somewhat attached to the tree.
"That's what you get for trying to eat me!" I exclaimed while I began running down the body of the Grimm.
Meanwhile, Alpha charged at its respective Grimm and grabbed the left knob of his Driver and turned it forward and back onto position.
Violent Slash.
Then, he became again a bolt of lightning, it moved through the Beowolves slashing at each one of them with the blades on his forearms and killing a lot of them with just one attack until he stopped.
This was because of his semblance, 'Dust Body', and as the name implied, he could change the properties of his own body if he was in a certain contact with dust, and depending the type of dust, the properties change. At the moment, he was using lightning dust, that's how he managed to do that, however, in order to do that he had to expend a good amount of aura, but since he was right now in his Amazon form that wasn't a problem thanks to the vast reserves of aura of the transformation.
Another Beowolf lunged at him from his back, but the Beowolf met Alpha's punch on its head that literally exploded from the strength of the attack, he remained relaxed after that, but he was suddenly constricted by both a black and white body that were none other than the second King Taijitu that was in the place.
After Alpha was constricted the two heads looked at the immobile Alpha as he remained silent onto place and calm while looking directly at the two heads.
"You should know…" He began as cold air suddenly surrounded him, before transforming his body completely onto ice, with icicles surrounding him that harmed the Grimm and made it stop the King Taijitu's constriction, before changing onto gravity dust, and sending a gravity wave that made the Grimm move back. "That constriction won't work in me!" Alpha immediately jumped onto the air to land onto the Body of the creature as he stabbed it with its claws, then producing electricity from Earth Shadow, sending a discharge through him that electrocuted the King Taijitu. He stopped after some seconds, as now there was smoke coming from the Grimm.
"What? Haven't you eaten eels?" Alpha asked as the heads hissed angry and tried to bite him, but Alpha jumped off of its body to evade the twin heads' attack and landed on the ground, he rolled on the ground before lunging its hand forward that went through a charging Beowolf. "Right, the Grimm only attack the humans." He simply said before putting his hand out of the Grimm and then punching at another incoming Beowolf sending it back.
"Come on! Weren't you going to kill me?" He asked as more Grimm began charging at him.
Back with me, I continued running on the King Taijitu's back until the Black head appeared before me and tried to bite me, I raised my hands in response and managed to grab its fangs to avoid being eaten, we continued with our struggle until I managed to push it away. The black head recuperated fast and tried to bite me again, but I managed to jump at the last second and landed on its head, I moved forward until I found its neck and prepared Final Edge, igniting it with fire dust and tried to deliver a slash to cut the head off, but the Grimm moved from one side to another to throw me off of it, I took the right knob of my Driver in response and took it off in sickle mode, I stabbed the Grimm in the back with it to keep me on the body of the King Taijitu, and if that wasn't enough, the white head finally broke the ice that kept it attached to the tree and immediately turned to me.
"Crap!" I exclaimed.
Alpha for its part, was tearing apart all the Grimm that approached him. An incoming Beowolf found itself flying back after a punch from Alpha, another one tried to lung at him, but he ducked and using ice dust to create an icicle on his hand, he stabbed it. Then he used the lightning again to move between all the Grimm that approached him and slashed all the ones that found on its path, but it didn't end there as more Beowolves came out and lunged at him, he managed to avoid some attacks, while some others managed to hit him, but thanks to his aura, he didn't get serious damage.
Unfortunately for me, I continued hanging in the black head of the King Taijitu, that continued moving to all sides, and didn't allow me regain the balance, it was only a matter of seconds until I couldn't resist more and couldn't hold the grip on the sickle anymore, I was sent out flying to a tree. I crashed and then fell to the floor.
"Alex!" Alpha exclaimed in concern. He immediately rushed boosted by his lightning to my side to check me. "Are you okay?"
"We have been hit harder, don't you remember?" I remembered him while putting me back to my feet, only to see the all Grimm around us.
"I think that been hit hard won't be enough to end this." Alpha commented while putting back to his combat stance.
"Don't worry about that." I told him. "After all, help is coming, didn't you sense those two?" I asked, making Alpha turn his head to me before hearing another male voice.
AMAZON!
A-MA-ZON!
Red and blue flames suddenly lit in the air, and the injured white head of the King Taijitu from before was crushed by one of the two who fell from the sky.
Blade Loading!
Without wasting a single second, a blade suddenly surged from the figure's right forearm, and immediately stabbed it in the head of the Grimm, ending with the life of its white part, before letting out a roar.
We could finally see the newcomer. In figure it was pretty much like me, along with a head that had the same appearance as me, but it was different at the same time, while I had red eyes, he had bright yellow eyes, the main colors of the head were a silver gray, as if it had armor, and blue, its chest was also like me, but also looked to be a kind of combination between chest and armor, the skin on its body was blue with some red lines. The arms looked to have shoulder pads, and had the same skin as the chest, the hands were blue and had what looked to be metal in the knuckles part, the forearms were covered in metal, and had no spikes. The legs had gray skin and looked to have protectors on the knees, finally, the boots looked to be metallic and had spikes like mine, but were slightly longer. Finally, the figure also had a Driver, but very different to Alpha's and mine, the buckle looked as a lizard eye, the part surrounding the eye being of a red color and the eye shining in a yellow color, under the eye was a slot holder that surged from the buckle and was disposed in a diagonal position, a syringe was in it. Finally, it had an armlet that was also different, being much more like the Driver, except by the fact of not having a shining eye.
This figure was the third companion, Gray Storm, Amazon Neo.
The other figure landed between all the Beowolves, and immediately slashed at two of them with its claws, two others more tried to bite him, but the figure jumped forward and turned to them before jumping into the air and landed two kicks on their skulls, cracking them, before using the recoil to do a backflip and land back onto its feet.
The figure, in appearance, it looked like Alpha, both of them had the same type of head, the newcomer's, however was green with some red markings, and looked to have lizard skin, unlike the rest of us, and unlike Alpha, he had fangs in his mouth, and had red eyes. He wore a white scarf, like I was wearing a red one. His chest was mostly of a dirt yellow with green scales in the parts near his limbs, his arms and legs were also green scales, with some red markings all over the body, he also had black boots and his hands were black, with claws coming from the tip of his fingers and fins in his forearms like Alpha, also, he had a green and red fin on his back pretty much like Alpha's black one. His belt was like mine and Alpha's, but it had its differences, the 'head' of the belt was of a metallic white color, and also had red eyes, the knobs were also different, since they were completely red in color, and had a cylindrical form, this was because the functions of his belt were different than us'. His armlet was completely different, it looked more like an old relic than anything, and it also had two small eyes and a curved knob that made it look as if it could be connected with another thing. Finally, on his forearms, he wore two blue forearm protectors that went from his wrist up to half of his forearms, also with rectangular spaces so the fins in his forearms were left free. This was Cyan Woodgate, Amazon 'Zero' as we called him.
After ending with one head of the King Taijitu, and the Beowolves, both jumped and landed just aside us.
"Well well, you two started the hunt without us." Zero commented.
"No time for jokes cap." Neo responded in a serious tone. "If you hadn't seen, we're surrounded by Grimm, and for the looks of them, this ones won't go away."
"Come on, Neo." I said to him. "I don't think this thing is so bad, don't you remember the time we were surrounded by all types of big bad Grimm and we had to rest for a week in order to recover?" I commented, remembering a certain situation of the past where we got incredibly hurt.
"Gods, don't remember me of that time." Alpha asked, with a hand on his forehead.
"Still, you two are more than capable to have taken care of them minutes ago." Neo said again, a random Beowolf suddenly jumped at us in the middle of our conversation, but Neo took out a pistol from somewhere and shoot two bullets through the head of the Beowolf, its body landing right before us.
"No time to lose then." Alpha commented while cracking his knuckles. "Time to end with this extermination!" Without more to say, Alpha charged straight at the rest of the Grimm with a growl.
"That fool will get himself killed one of this days." Neo told us.
"Well, you already know how he is…" Zero said to us while activating the bracelets on his forearms and began transforming, the bracelets expanded, and the metal took the design of blue metallic scales, the bracelet began covering his hands in metal and formed metallic claws that covered his ones, from the wrist, three large metallic claws surged, each one of the metallic claws was 7.9 inches long and 0.16 inches wide, this was Cyan's weapon 'Savage Judge'.
"…Always charging first." I said before taking out Final Edge and charging forward along with Zero.
"I still can't understand how is that we can be brothers." Neo said to himself as he took out the same pistol with his left hand and prepared his forearm blade, the pistol that he was using was grey in color and without great features, except for the white reptilian eye that was adobe the trigger of the weapon, at the beginning of the canon, and a steel blue blade that came from under the end of the barrel and stood parallel to the cannon of the pistol, this was one of his twin pistols: 'Moon Guardians'. Neo then charged, opening fire with his pistol and shooting at the upcoming Grimm.
Some Beowolves tried to jump lunge at Alpha, but that was a bad idea, changing the barrel of Earth Shadow using the ice dust, Alpha's body was suddenly covered in ice, and when the Beowolves were at mere centimeters of him, Icicles surged from his body, which impaled the Grimm at the last moment before his body came back to normal, and sent a kick at another charging Beowolf. Seeing as how more Beowolves were incoming, he changed to gravity dust, and from his body, he sent a wave that threw them in all directions, something that the rest of us took advantage of, I saw a flying Beowolf, and I didn't think two times before jumping over it and slashed the soulless creature, I landed right onto my feet before activating the fire dust over my sword, and launched a fire wave at more Beowolves, setting them on fire. Neo, for his part, immediately let out as many shots as he could from his pistol at the creatures onto their heads, and when one landed at his feet, he didn't have to do much except to stab it with his Amazon Blade so the life of the soulless creature left its eyes, he then focused onto some others that landed near, at one of them he shot it through the head, another one that put itself back onto its feet and tried to slash at him with his claws found itself stabbed through the stomach right after attacking Neo, and a last one that tried to lunge at him while he still had his blade stabbing the other Beowolf, got his head cut off by Moon Guardian's blade before the Grimm could reach him, Neo then shot at the still stabbed Beowolf at point blank range, obliterating its head, to finally kick it out of his blade while growling.
"Gii-Gii Gii-Gii-Gii-Gii-Gii!" Launching his traditional battle cry, Zero immediately went after the dispersed Grimm with Savage Judge at the ready. The first Beowolf that he found, was attacked by a furry of strikes, courtesy of Zero's weapon, that killed it after receiving a great number of injuries, a second one then tried to bite him from behind, however, Zero's right claw transformed, the claws disappeared, and a black, rectangular cannon formed in place, that went from the beginning of the gauntlet and ended at his knuckles, the sneaky Beowolf didn't knew what happened, since he met itself with a shot destroying its head before it could react. Zero prepared for more of them, when a hiss interrupted him, coming from the half dead King Taijitu, Zero turned his attention to it and two Alpha Beowolves that tried to attack him from behind at the same time the black head of the King Taijitu went to devour the Amazon, but Zero jumped high to evade the King Taijitu and the Beowolves. Now falling to the floor, Zero activated his semblance, two shadows went out of him at the sides, and the shadows then formed two exact copies of Zero, one on each side of him, discarding Savage Judge and transforming it onto its bracelet form, each one of the Zeros raised one claw high on the air, as if it would give a chop, each one fell onto one of the Grimm.
Dai Setsudan!
And right after reaching them, they swung their claws down, the hit being powerful enough to cut the each one of the Grimm's head right through the middle before landing onto the floor.
The cut Grimm continued standing until each one fell to the floor and started dissipating. The copies of Zero became shadows again and went back to the original Zero, which continued on its landing position after launching that attack.
Cyan's semblance was 'Copy', and as it was seen, he could create exact copies of himself that followed his orders, but Cyan's had a limit: As human, he could only create two copies of himself at the same time, as an amazon, he could create up to four copies, but still, each one of the copies cost him aura, and the copies could only take some hits before dissipate.
"Neo! One at 10 o'clock!" I warned my companion, I actually had Final Edge onto twin blades and gun mode, aiming the gun part, I sent a shot at my friend. Why? Would you ask, simple, and it was because of Gray's semblance.
The Grimm was few meters away when my bullet reached Neo, but it didn't hit him, instead, it bounced against a glass-like barrier and was redirected against the Beowolf, the Grimm took the bullet, which sent it moving back. When the Beowolf recuperated, Neo was already upon it, and stabbed it through its throat before it could do any move.
"Do you always need to make me do that?" Neo asked me while I sidestepped to avoid a Beowolf's claw before cutting its head off with an upwards slash.
"There's no reason to not do it." I responded, after all, it was true, Gray's semblance: 'Reflector' allowed him to create barriers that allowed him to redirect ranged attacks, but, since always there's a 'but', his barriers weren't so effective against attacks from close weapons, neither could reflect an entire rain of projectiles.
"Anyways…" I began again. "I think those were all the Beowolves." I said as I looked without finding traces of Beowolves, the others regrouped with me as we heard a hiss that we all knew so well. "That only leaves…" I continued while looking at the front of us to find the burned, but still alive.
"King Taijitu." Alpha finished, at the same time the heads moved forward, the black one going for me and Zero, and the white one went for Alpha and Neo.
"Evade them!" Zero ordered, he jumped backwards to evade while I rolled to the right, Neo jumped to the right while Alpha punched the ground with Earth Shadow and created a rock wall using earth dust, against which the white head crashed before Alpha moved back.
"Did you like that?" Alpha taunted the serpentine Grimm that hissed angrily at him in response before attacking again.
Zero and I meanwhile, evaded more of the useless tries of the black head to catch us.
"I thought that after receiving an electrical charge of Noir he would stop trying to mess up with us and go away." I commented in curiosity at this Grimm not getting away from us after the rampage we went on the rest of its companions.
"It looks that this one hasn't had too much experience." Zero commented in return, with Savage Judge at the ready. "If it won't go away, then lets end this already."
"Count up with that!" I responded, and after taking a stance with Final Edge, the Black head attacked again, both Zero and I jumped onto the air but in different directions.
Transforming Savage Judge onto its cannon mode, Zero shot all the bullets that he could against the King Taijitu before reaching the ground again, but it looked that didn't do as much damage as we would wish and the head went for him again. Transforming his weapon back to claws form, he sidestepped the intent of the Grimm to eat him and sent a slash from his metallic claws, I entered then, and igniting my blade with fire, I sent a flame slash at the black head, making it move back, but that wouldn't end just like that since the Grimm hissed angrily before trying to smack us with its side, Zero was fast enough to react against the attack and moved out of the way before it could hit him, I however, wasn't so lucky and I was sent flying from the hit and dropped Final Edge to the floor, but I recovered in midair and managed to land on my feet.
"Alex!" Zero exclaimed in concern.
"Don't worry." I responded. "It will take much more than just that to leave me out." I assured before noting that I dropped my weapon, also, now thinking that I was defenseless, the head charged against me once again, in response, I grabbed the right knob of my driver again in sickle form, I activated my semblance again to transform it onto a big black scythe, that I used to hit the charging Grimm with its flat side, deviating its attack. After that, I de-transformed the sickle back onto its original form before discarding it, and then activated my driver again.
Violent Strike!
I jumped onto the air, and once I was at a side of the black head, I drop kicked it with force, sending the head away and bleeding, before landing on the floor again.
"Alex! Time to end this!" Zero called me, holding final edge on one hand and launching it to me, I simply raised a hand to catch my weapon. Zero meanwhile, continued running towards the still stunned black head and pulled the knobs of his driver off, taking out two blades, and jumping at the head of the Grimm, he stabbed one of his blades on its right eye.
At the other side, both Neo and Alpha evaded and hit the other head of the King Taijitu with everything they had. Neo, now having discarded his Amazon Blade, and now using both of his pistols, shot multiple times at the Grimm to call its attention, the white head went for him in response, but unfortunately for the Grimm it received a flame-enveloped roundhouse kick onto its face, courtesy of Alpha, before reaching it again using lightning dust to move at fast speed and positioned itself in front of its head, to hit it this time with a earth-covered punch, Neo was upon the white head before it could do anything and slashed it as many times as he could with the blades of Moon Guardians, he then used its head as support to jump back and sent shots to the head once more.
"Can you distract it some more?" Alpha asked his partner once he reached the floor.
"What are you planning?" Neo asked back.
"The end." Alpha answered, he then changed to gravity dust before jumping as high as it could.
"Always having to do dramatic endings." Neo said to himself before ejecting the magazines of Moon Guardians and inserting two more in the guns, and pointed them to the white head now staring at him.
Without saying anything, Neo shot a bullet from both pistols with great precision to hit his objective: The eyes.
Impacting onto its eyes, the Grimm let out a hiss of pain since that left it blind for a while, the idea of Neo functioning as now a certain red amazon was falling back.
Violent Strike!
Alpha raised his right leg and enveloped it in rock using his semblance and the dust on his gauntlets, but that wouldn't end just like that, using Earth Shadow barrel of fire dust, his right leg now was also enveloped on fire. Alpha flipped forward while falling before delivering a lethal axe kick that broke completely the white head's skull and pushed it to the floor where the white head was now completely crushed and burned.
"Not bad, coming from you." Neo commented.
"'Coming from me'!? What's that supposed to mean!?" Alpha asked him angrily, but Neo simply continued silent, and staring at him.
Back with me, Zero had stabbed one of his blades onto the black head's eye, and without caring about the pain sounds coming from the Grimm stabbed the other blade a little higher on the head. Preparing himself, Zero pulled with force and jumped onto the head, and transforming Savage Judge onto its cannons form, he let out a lot of bullets at point blank, making the half dead Grimm move side to side to throw him away, but Zero changed back onto its claws form, and stabbed the claws onto the Grimm to keep himself on.
"Alex, now!" Zero exclaimed. Knowing what he meant, I moved forward and changed to ice dust, while Zero crouched while on the Grimm, and at the same time he took out his claws from the black head, he jumped high, action that I imitated.
I passed the head, and once I was over its body, I concentrated, and created the largest icicle that I could. It stabbed the Grimm through its body, and to make sure that it wouldn't move, I pulled out the right knob of the driver as a lance this time. Using my semblance and the black material from the Driver, I transformed it onto the largest spear that I could, and threw it directly at the throat, immobilizing it.
Zero went down again, and took out the knobs of his driver out, again forming two blades, taking a parallel position to the floor, he began spinning as fast as he could with his arms extended, he fell just aside the throat, and acting as a saw, he cut the head off before landing with a knee on the floor bathed in the blood of the killed Grimm, it didn't took much more so its body began dissipating.
"And that settles it." Zero commented, without a single Grimm around us.
"Finally, I was getting tired of fight Grimm all the night." Alpha said in a slightly annoyed tone.
"At least, now we're finally reunited." Neo told the group, which was finally after a day, back together .
"That reminds me." I said as my skin became gray, and then went back to my human form. "Does any of you two remember how is that we ended separated?" I asked while pointing at Zero and Neo.
"So, you also don't remember the events of yesterday's night, right?" Neo inferred, while putting the slot holder of his driver onto a horizontal position before taking out the needle. His skin also become completely gray and went back onto a human form. Gray had short, gray hair and a pair of yellow eyes with a face that showed no emotion. He had the same age as I, but he was younger than me for a few months. He was wearing a long blue coat that reached his knees, with a high collar and was left unzipped, letting see the gray long-sleeved T-shirt that he wore under it, under his coat he kept Moon Guardians and some other things that will be seen with the time, on the back he had his symbol: a gray open book. He also wore a pair of silver tactical pants with a black belt, and on his feet he wore black soldier boots. "If that's the case I can also suppose that Noir also doesn't remembers, am I incorrect?" He asked.
"No, you aren't." Alpha confirmed, also changing back onto its human form. Noir had black, wild, shoulder length hair and gray eyes. He was 17 years old, unlike me and Gray who were 16. He wore a black tank-top with a flames design on the lower part, under an unbuttoned red leather jacket without sleeves, letting see his well-built arms, he wasn't wearing an armlet, unlike the rest of us, and always wearing Earth Shadow on their bracelets form which had the same black color, he also was wearing black jeans and a pair of red sneakers. His symbol was on its jacket, more concretely where his heart would be positioned, and was a black fist. "And taking account what you said, our leader also doesn't remembers last night events, isn't that right?"
"That's right." Zero confirmed before changing back onto human form. Cyan had light-blue, spiky, middle length hair and cyan eyes. He also was 17 years old. He was wearing a sleeveless blue T-shirt, he also wore a small green cape that covered completely his upper left arm, since nobody should know about his armlet, only letting see Savage Judge onto their forearm protectors form. He also wore a pair of dark-green shorts with some red marks and marron boots. His symbol was on the cape that covered his left upper arm, being a cyan lizard paw. "Except for the battle that we had, I only remember that white light, and then that I woke up on a crater." Cyan told us. "I then moved, hoping to find you guys and I found Gray on the way."
"And then when we heard the sound of fighting, we knew that it could only be you guys." Gray finished for him.
"So the one of the crater was you…" I commented, looking at my leader as I remembered the crater that I found earlier while looking for the others. "I don't know why we forgot exactly what happened, but one thing is sure, we don't have those guys following us right now. Maybe now we will be capable of reaching Vale as we planned."
"That's true, but you shouldn't forget that we're still in Grimm territory." Cyan remembered us. "We have been capable of cleaning that horde, but there's still more out there… And we are their primary objective." He finished, at the same time a certain sound came from Noir that made us turn to him.
"I don't know you guys, but I'm starving." He told us, as the same sound came from our stomachs, remembering us that we hadn't eaten in some long time.
"Gray, do you still have some?" Cyan asked as Gray took off his coat to take a brown backpack before putting his coat back on. He then proceeded to search for something in the pockets, before taking out four eggs, throwing one to each one of us.
"Those are the last ones, so don't waste them, it's a miracle that they're still on conditions." Gray commented us before taking out the hull and started eating his boiled egg, action that we imitated, ending after a few minutes.
"Now, maybe we should get some sleep." Cyan declared. "I don't know you, but I'm tired from all the fighting. Who wants to take the first turn?" He asked us, a certain yellow eyed raised his hand.
"I will take the first turn." Gray declared.
"Alright, I will take the second then." I let out.
"I will take the third, and Noir, you will take the fourth." Cyan told the black head.
"As you want cap." Noir assented.
"And remember, awaken us at the first light." Cyan remembered before turning to me a Gray. "Remember, tomorrow's objective is reaching Vale. After that, we will see what we have to do." He declared, all of us assented at his words as he went to sleep, I also joined along with Noir while Gray watched, and making sure that no Grimm would approach us.
We didn't knew what fate had prepared to us, but something was sure, whatever happened, we would be there to protect others, against the Grimm, and those that are a menace to the people of Remnant.
Because this was what we were prepared to be.
And that's it, man, I'm happy that I finally completed this, after some time.
To leave some things clear, yeah, I did merge the original Amazon and the Amazons series, how will this turn out… You will see in the future, and also, yeah, I merged both series with the RWBYverse. Zero is practically the original Amazon, but with a belt that looks more modern-like.
I had this idea on my head some time, and honestly, it wouldn't get out until I wrote and published it. I will continue this, but I can't say exactly when next episode will come out, especially since I'm working on other X-over already.
Another thing, English it is not my main language, so, if you pointed any grammatical errors, it would be pretty appreciated.
And now, I leave a trailer of what we will see on this volume:
Volume 1 Trailer:
"It seems that we have interrupted an initiation." Neo says to the rest of transformed Amazons.
…
"Who…What are you people?" A girl with black hair with some red tips and a red cloak ask to the now tired and de-transformed Amazons.
"We're… The Amazons." Cyan responds.
…
…
"I have a proposition for all of you." A man with gray hair and in a green coat says to the four untransformed protectors.
…
…
"You have been a leader for just one day… I have been a leader for years." Cyan tells the black haired girl from before.
…
…
"Not bad… But…" Noir comments to a blonde girl as they're in a deadlock before covering his feet in stone and kicking her on the gut, sending her flying before covering himself in lightning and rushing at her at high speed, hitting her multiple times. "You still have a lot to learn!"
…
"Tell me a reason of why I shouldn't send you to the infirmary right now!" Alex exclaims with fury while keeping somebody pinned to the ground using his left hand.
…
"I didn't want to have this responsibility on my shoulders!" Cyan says with fury to a blond guy. "You think this is a blessing!? You're wrong! This is a FUCKING CURSE!"
…
…
"Target confirmed." A person with a blank expression lets out before pressing a button on an armlet that is pretty much the same one that Gray wears. "Amazon!" He exclaims before being covered in yellow flames
…
AMAZON! /A-MA-ZON!
…
"If they get their hands on the armlet… Everything it's done." Gray explains to the rest.
…
"You can run, but you will never be capable of escaping from us!" A tall figure exclaims in the shadows.
…
…
"I'm sorry to say this little guys." Zero says in his transformed state but without wearing Savage Judge, Omega standing by his side without Final Edge and his red scarf. "But this city now has people protecting it…" He then took a battle stance, action that Omega copied. "And those are us!" He declares before charging forward.
And that's it, see'ya later. Alphazero524 disconnecting.
