Alright here is chapter 1 of RWBY: Renegade GRAY, APPARENTLY Rooster Teeth is jumping the gun a bit, so I got to go on a wing here. Anyway the newest episode was EPIC, and I know how to match that. It feels a bit strange to hear a different voice from Ren, but I'll get used to it. I own nothing except my ideas and OC's.
Ash growled as he slammed a fist on Ozpin's desk.
"We've searched nearly the entirety of Remnant! What are we missing"? Ash snaps.
Ozpin sighed. "We're missing the last piece, Summer's final mission, unfortunately due to it being a failure, I never got info on it". Ozpin answers.
Ash hisses angrily and was about to rant when the phone rang.
"Headmaster Ozpin, General Ironwood is here to see you". A clerk informs.
Ozpin's brow furrowed. "Send him in". He permits.
The elevator opened, revealing Ironwood who wore a more militarized outfit, that didn't surprise Ash.
What surprised him was the small battalion of soldiers at his side.
"Ozpin, Ash, I need to speak with you". Ironwood began.
"Is this 'Speaking' going to involve use of those soldiers behind you"? Ash asks.
"Only if necessary". Ironwood responded.
Ash crossed his arms. "Alright, let's hear it". He snaps.
Ironwood pulled out his scroll before reading a message. "Due to repeated reports of unknown missions, and various displays of dangerous power, the Council of Vale has decided to Ban the Team known as GRAY from the Vytal Tournament". Ironwood reads.
Ash's expression was blank. "And what pray tell are these 'unknown missions'"? Ash asks.
"You've been all around Remnant, from Atlas to Vacuo, and have come back empty handed, it has been too suspicious". Ironwood explains.
Ozpin took his chance and stood up defiantly. "James! You know as well as I do what they're doing, I even talked to the Council about this"! Ozpin protests.
"But what of his power? He destroyed an entire floor of the CCT without even trying, and must I remind you who shook the entirety of Vale"? Ironwood names off.
Ozpin stayed silent.
"He is too dangerous, THEY are too dangerous. One of them is a Grimm Hunter, one of the deadliest kind, another has successfully rebuilt and improved an Atlesian Paladin! And their leader here wields power to rival GODS"! Ironwood rants, panting.
Ash chuckled sinisterly, it was low and slow, before it broke out into mad laughter.
"What"? Ironwood asks, shocked.
"I get it now...your afraid". Ash figures out.
Ironwood froze. "I am not, I am merely doing what is in the Cou-"
"Forget the Council"! Ash snaps, turning rigidly to face Ironwood. "You are afraid of us! You are afraid that if we turn our backs on you, you won't be able to stop us, well let me tell you this 'General'". Ash began, stomping right into the General's face. "I will not betray this world, I have someone I care for here, and I made a promise, and I won't let you, the Council, or anyone, GET IN MY WAY"! Ash roars.
Ironwood drew his pistol, which Ash returned with Celestial's Will, both weapons at each others throats. "Both of you! Stand down"! Ozpin tries to ease.
Ash stared before growling. "I've dealt with your kind, paranoid, always wary, picking fights and choosing enemies that they shouldn't". Ash began. He smirked. "I guess I'll just have to take care of you just like the others". He threatens.
Ironwood took that as his cue, he fired, only to watch as it faded right through Ash as he vanished in embers. Ash charged past Ozpin and burst out of the window, as Ironwood's voice called out. "Stop him! And get the others, make sure none of them leave Beacon"! Ironwood orders.
Ash growled before his eyes glowed blue, transmitting through GRAAY's comm. "Everyone! Ironwood is targeting us! Grab your stuff, destroy all traces, and RUN"! Ash orders mentally.
He felt them give a mental nod of approval before cutting out of the comm. He sighed before turning around, and glancing at Beacon's tower.
"Sorry Ozpin". Ash apologizes.
1 week later.
Ash entered the giant aerial ship that was going to the Vytal Tournament. "Hope the others arrive". Ash mutters. He tapped into his Aura, the black cloak he wore covering his glowing eyes. "How you doing guys"? Ash mutters.
George was the first to respond. "On a ship to the Tournament, you"?
"Same". Ash responds.
"Had to find a way to sneak Blizzard on, was delayed but I'm on one". Ryan answers.
"I'm already here". Yaron cuts in.
"Same here". Aria quips.
Ash sighed and ran a hand through his now blond hair, Ironwood knew their faces, his especially, but not his Super Saiyan forms, his blonde haired, emerald eyed look would keep Ironwood off of his tail. "I hope RWBY and JNPR are there". Ash mutters, hoping.
"You mean you hope Ruby is there". George teases.
"Your one to talk". Ash snaps back.
Ash could feel the image of George's face heating up. "Shut it". He mutters.
"Alright, alright, lets just focus on the plan". Ryan reminds.
"Right". Ash mutters.
Ozpin had contacted Ash not long after their run away, word had spread like wildfire over the newly named Renegade GRAY along with their new bounties.
Aria's was 10,000 Lien, to her disappointment.
Ryan's was 30,000
George's was 50,000
Yaron's was 75,000
And Ash's was 100,000 Lien, to all of their surprise.
Regardless, Ozpin had news. A team with the most wanted man in Remnant being a part of it, goes by the name of Team BSRG (Berserk). Ironwood has been tracking him for years, and if Ash succeeded in capturing him, it would put him and the others in a good light in the Council's eyes and therefore they may very well drop the bounties.
Ozpin had managed to warn Oobleck and Port of the situation, they managed to sneak in GRAY, and purposely pin them against BSRG, all of it hinges on their succession.
The ship finally stopped, and the people flooded out, Ash sighed before going out and tracking Yaron by his Aura. Ash wore the cloak to disguise his clothing, while the others improvised. Ash saw Yaron and Aria leaning near a pillar.
Yaron had taken the liberty to wear some more casual clothing for the time being, due to the recent look, it seemed Aria made it so no one could track it's maker.
Aria herself didn't change all that much, just a yellow jacket and a hat over her ears.
George walked forward, a smile on his face. "Glad to see your all alright". George says in relief.
George went for the most drastic look, using the Armor of Brutus as his disguise, Ironwood never really saw the Armor in battle, so the cowl used by the cape worked well.
Ryan walked forward, and the silent thumping of Blizzard's feet could be heard as it walked off to the arena to wait. He removed his coat, since it was what he was known for, and took off his gauntlet, in their place was a blue hoodie and his watch remaining.
"Seems we're all here, all we need to do is check up with Oobleck and Port and enjoy the show". Ash says with his scroll out.
The others nodded before walking off to the register booth and signed in, with Port and Oobleck doing the signing personally so they wouldn't get busted.
"Team RWBY is fighting right now, why don't you take a look"? Port reminds.
"Wait! They're fighting right now"?! Ash asks, before racing off with the others.
Ash leaned on the railing as RWBY got ready to fight. Port and Oobleck, somehow miraculously managing to get back to the announcers booth, continued the fight.
Blake was going up against a girl with a hoverboard and pistols, with Ryan calling hax the second he saw the transformation.
Yang was against some girl who knew some form of martial arts, a good fighter.
Ruby and Weiss were currently fighting some guy with a staff, with another guy stuck in ice.
"Sit down, your causing a mess". George scolds.
Ash noticed the people were glaring at him, he apologized and sat down.
Ruby and Weiss couldn't land a hit on the guy, who managed to evade their blows and grab a fire dust crystal, throwing it to the girl with the hoverboard, she infused it with her hoverboard and melted the ice around the frozen man. Who began to open fire on the others.
Blake managed to lead the girl with the hoverboard away, and tricked her into an out of bounds kick, now its 3 against 4.
Weiss trapped the two in her glyph and managed to freeze them in a ball of ice, leading them out of the arena.
The other girl got in front of the ice ball and slammed her fist into it, breaking it.
The others took that distraction, Weiss formed a ramp of ice which Yang sped up, Blake threw her weapon at Yang in its ribbon mode, Ruby gave Blake a throwing boost, leading Yang to being thrown fist first into the other team, knocking them all out.
"Wahoo"! GRAAY cheers, watching as RWBY caught their breath.
They decided to meet up with RWBY and congratulate them, walking through the festival grounds, they had to pull Aria away from various stores and restaurants.
Ash spotted RWBY talking with JNPR at a table. He smirked at seeing Weiss eating a bowl of noodles.
"Well well, I didn't expect the Ice Queen of all people to eat noodles". Ash cuts in.
They all turn and gaped in confusion.
Ash chuckled and returned to his normal form.
"Ash"! Ruby cheers as she tackled him.
"Hey Ruby, nice fight you all had". Ash greets.
"Yeah, it was AWESOME"! Nora inputs.
Ren chuckles, his voice strangely a pitch deeper than normal.
"Anyway, what's with you guys"? Ash asks, returning to Super Saiyan.
"What's with us? You guys are wanted for an IMMENSE amount of lien, and your wondering about us"?! Pyrrha asks, causing them all to turn to them.
"What are you talking about? They're perfectly fine". Yang asks.
Pyrrha sighed and pulled out her scroll, showing the wanted posters and reading the description. "Charged with suspicious behavior and assaulting the General of the Atlas Military, Renegade GRAY is wanted for an all around total of 265,000 Lien". Pyrrha reads.
Team RWBY gaped at them.
"I had my reasons, Ironwood banned us from the Tournament out of fear, and I retaliated as such". Ash responded.
"But with a bounty like that, he really wants you caught huh"? Blake asks.
"Yeah, but we got a plan". Ryan cuts in.
"We can't say, just be sure to watch our fight". Yaron hints.
The speakers suddenly crackled. "Would Team JNPR report to the arena immediately". Port's voice asks.
"Like we did 10 minutes ago"! Oobleck cuts in.
Ash chuckles as JNPR heads out. "Well then, shall we"? Ash asks, with the two teams going off to the arena.
Team's GRAY and RWBY sat near each other as JNPR was ready to fight their opposing team in a natural setting the arena chose.
Ash smirked. "Let the Games begin".
To be continued.
And there we go, the first chapter of RWBY: Renegade GRAY. To save a rather pitifully drawn out escape scene, I cut ahead. The Escape was supposed to last the entire chapter, but that would have taken two chapters to write the first episode, so I cut it out. As for who this team BSRG is, kudos to Hollowgod88 for making them up, I really needed them. As for the situation with the chapters, after about 2 or 3 more I'll delete the preview from this story. Don't want anybody to catch on. R&R This is Oathkeeper0317 signing out.
