Alrighty, hello everyone, Nevermore here, thank you for clicking on my first ever fan fiction. Now I know that there are a lot of RWBY au's, but I just thought of this and decided "fuck it, let's print it off". So here we go, an AU where the grimm actually have purpose, where a religion is long dead, and where my OC ends up paired with ruby…that part is my problem right now, im not a good author so please don't flame or hate me, and yes, I will try my hand at sexual contact later on.
So until then, this is madness, signing out.
- Long ago, before man, there reined six entities, each representing an element of the world.
The entities created this world, bringing about nature, animals, the sea and skies, all thanks to their power…. but after millennium, the entities grew restless.
The second eldest, an entity of pure light, decided to propose a new inhabitant to the world, mankind.
So with the idea, the entity sought her brothers to help her, for they all had a hand in this creation.
The entities of earth and sea shaped the mold from clay, the entity of fire cured it under intense heats, the entity of air gave it air to breathe, the entity of light gave it a soul, while the eldest, the entity of darkness, gave this creation dark secrets. Now molded and alive, the creation was set onto the land, and looked up towards its creators and asked for a companion.
Shocked by its apparent intellect, they obliged the creation, making another, slightly different model for the first to keep close.
Months passed, then years, their creation continued to expand, more and more created each day, the humans worshiped all the entities save for one, the eldest, the entity of darkness, GRIMM.
Finally tired of being ignored and blamed for all the bad the humans did, he decided to exact vengeance by make a creation on his own, beings of pure darkness and carnage, as you know them today, THE CREAURES OF GRIMM.
The humans prayed to us, they began sacrificing themselves thinking it would please us, it did not, it made us disgusted, made us retreat away from them, deep into the earth.
They cursed us for abandoning them, for leaving them to defend against our brother's children.
Years passed since we retreated, humans died and were born, but our brother still sent his creatures to hunt them, and we did nothing.
The earth around us, we fell into a deep deep sleep, allowing our powers to seep freely into the stone surrounding us.
The humans found moments of peace, delving into the earth, collecting ores to hopefully combat the creatures of Grimm, but instead finding nothing but stone….and veins of five glowing crystals.
Taking these shards of powers unknown in hand, they used our strength against our brother's children, destroying them and turning them to ichor, appropriately naming these stones DUST.
We should have never let these powers seep into stone, for now the humans have forgotten us, and now seek to go beyond our world, towards a new home, seeking to only further their own goals.
But even if most have forgotten us, a few have told our stories since the dawn of mankind to now, some still believe in us.
Now our fate lies with two young humans, the last two who believe in our strength, in our stories.
They will fight for their kind, against our brothers creations, and perhaps one day, seek to awaken us from our sleep.
It is their fate to meet, to share the stories with others, and perhaps, break past the humans greed and sin.
Again, Nevermore here, reminder not to flame, and constructive criticism is appreciated. This will take some time, and I have next to no idea what you will expect, so in due time, things will reveal themselves.
