Those Who Wander
Another story in the same vein as Road Successor and this time a massively large crossover between all my favorite games/shows! Isn't it lovely? God Eater, RWBY, and anything connected to Project X Zone tbh. It's going to be good...I think!
Be the first ones to see new chapters and updates, as well as other stuff I post .com.
Prologue: Reminiscence
"You're a freaking idiot!"
And here she goes...
"How did you get us lost again!"
She just loves being angry...
"Are you even paying attention to me?!"
"How can I not when you're screaming in my mind." I replied blandly setting her down. her being a formally Abandoned God Arc. Out of all the God Arcs I had to find the one that had two settings: loud and angry loud.
"Hey what are you doing?!" The Connection was still there but now it sounded like she was talking through a radio.
"Will you relax already? I need to rest. Between travelling, fighting aragami and you yelling at me, I'm getting exhausted." I muttered laying against the wall I set her against. Now you're probably wondering how a God Arc was talking? Well it probably had something to do with why I woke up in an abandoned Fenrir lab with no memory to why I got there or who I was. Well I know who I am, its just that I can't remember my own name, its so god damn frustrating! After digging around the labs, I found out that I was apart of an experiment to infuse the P73 Bias Factor to pure human DNA but the project was scrapped when a child with a Bias Factor was born. I'm pretty sure that child was Soma Shisckal, the first God Eater.
Still, waking up to find yourself in a tank of stale liquid was the least jarring thing that happen to me that day. That day was a week ago. Now I'm traveling to the Far East Branch on foot. Its basic RPG logic: when in doubt, head to where the plot is. Still, to be lost in a wasteland with barely any food, mainly some rations I found along the way is starting to wear on me. I need to find civilization soon or I'll die out here.
"Hey wake up, I hear something!"
I grab the hilt of my God Arc as I rise to my feet. Listening closely I do hear an helicopter nearby. "It might be a team of God Eaters either getting dropped off or picked up." I said as I began to run towards the sound. Another thing I find interesting is the fact that I'm rather fit. Way too fit than my previous incarnation, I'll tell you that. I think it has something to do with the Oracle Cells but there isn't a single fat God Eater ever.
Not that this world gave any reason for anyone to be fat...well except Garm. And I'd probably stab him on principle alone.
My spriting however paid off however as I arrived to see Soma, Sakuya, Alisa, Kota, and some Red Head charge into the iconic Cathedral. Without Lindow, it seems like I've found myself in the Burst Arc.
"What's the plan?"
"Well we go in, help out, and not die. Seems like a great plan to me."
"Lord help me, he's just as reckless as my old God Eater."
Heading around the back, I climbed up the broken wall and watched as they fought a Prithvi Mata. More than likely, the one that ate Lindow's God Arc. Without any warning, I leaped towards the Prithvi Mata with a flying kick that oddly enough broke it's Torso Bond and sent it flying into the wall stunned. I couldn't help myself, I grinned. "Dynamic Entry."
"Who are you?" I heard Soma demanded.
"Is now the time to be asking?" I shot back as the Prithvi Mata soon tried to get up. "Run it through, we'll do meet and greet later."
Apparently my kick only served to weaken it more as it died with the six of us wailing on it. As the Red Head, Alisa and Sakuya searched the corpse, Soma and Kota dragged me to the side.
"Alright, who the hell are you?"
"I dunno. I don't have a name." I commented with a grin. "I just woke up like this." This being the torn rags that made up my clothes. "Then I found this extremely bossy God Arc and began looking for civilization." I could hear her screaming in my head but I thankfully didn't bat an eyelash to it.
Soma kept glaring at me as Kota eyes widen. "Are you an Aragami?!"
"I don't think I am. I mean, at this point, I'd eat anything that wasn't the stale rations that I've been forced to eat on."
"Man I feel ya. Rations are the worse and stale rations seem just as bad." Kota agreed nodding.
"Guys..." I chose to stay away while they confirm what I knew what was going to happen anyways. They found Lindow's God Arc and bracelet. I kept to myself as they all try to find comfort with each other.
After they mourned, they called for exfil and waiting. It was kinda sad to see them like this, I needed to do something...
"You know he's not dead right?" I knew what I was about to do was bad, but they needed some level of hope.
"What do you mean?" Soma once again demanded, this time while pointing his God Arc at me.
"Look...you'd have to trust me. Lindow isn't dead. Soon you will encounter an Aragami, a midsize with an extremely odd Bias Factor. This Aragami isn't normal, but it isn't what you're probably think I'm talking about right now." I sighed. "What I'm trying to say, that this is the start of getting your friend back, and you need to have faith okay?"
"Thank you...may I ask who you are?" I froze at that voice. Actually looking at the Red Head, I realized that she wasn't just a generic protag character or even Yuu Kannagi. She was PYRRHA FREAKING NIKOS! Or at least some sort of reasonable facsimilie.
"I don't have a name." I replied chuckling nervous. "Like I was telling those two, that I woke up like this."
"And somehow you knew to come to this location and you knew that we were looking for Lindow." Soma commented with a frown.
"Hey, just because I know who you all are, doesn't mean I know who I am or my own name." I huffed back. "Do you know how annoying it is when you're trying to remember your own name and your mind either blanks out on it, or skips like a broken record? It's not fun."
"Alright take it easy." I glanced at Sakuya. It looks like she was feeling a little better now. "You said you woke up like this?"
"Yes ma'am, about a week ago in an Abandoned Fenrir lab. Apparently from what I can get from the computers before they crapped out on me, that I was used as an experiment to see if they can bond Oracle Cells to Human DNA. They decided to scrap me when Soma was born." Soma looked away at my words. "Hey, I don't hold what happened to me against you. It was fucked up for them to experiment on me yes, but Humanity was desperate and desperate people do things that aren't morally right but their heart is in the right place."
"Right..."
"So other than the fact that you can't remember your name, you know about us?" Kota asked confused.
"Correct. If I try to explain how I know, you'd think I'm crazy. Hell I think I am going crazy if your Captain is who I think she is?"
"Oh?" She asked surrised.
"Your name...it's Pyrrha Nikos right?" I asked nervously.
"Yes." She nodded.
"...does the name Jaune Arc mean anything to you?" Her eyes widen. "Knew it." Reincarnation is a bitch.
"Jaune Arc? That's french isn't it?" Alisa asked confused.
"H-How do you know that name?" She asked.
"That's something for me to explin after we exfil. I don't want to repeat myself when you all eventually bring me in front of Paylor Sakaki." I commented. "But if it'll soothe your concerns. He's fine."
Pyrrha visibly relaxed. "Thank you..."
The group fell into silence as the Chopper came to pick us up. I have a feeling that things will be getting interesting from here out.
