Ok for people who didnt read the announcement I did.
I've made a decision to make rewrite the whole damn thing, since I reviewed the story a bit and figured out (Yes just now and Ive been making some 2nd thoughts to change or not) and decided to rewrite this bullsht.
Please enjoy reading and try not to get killed
No lemon.
(Edit 04/12/2018 - I may or may have not removed the 'annoying' 2/two thing so yeah... Better for yall?)
YGGDRASIL, a popular online game in a year 2138, where/when technology was able to make virtual reality games. But a announcement caught players in surprise, the game shutting down.
There were few players that stayed until the very end of the server shut down.
A player named ColdStalker. His real life name is Lordez Grimm. (I suck at naming ok?)
He plays a Heteromorphic race. His race is a Dark Zombie, a upgraded race for Zombie players which passively emits unholy aura and consists some magic that only Zombie players can have. He also bought a cosmetic item that makes him look like 'Grimm', and costs quite a fortune of ingame cash. But he isnt using it right now, he only uses it to scare off players. Basically pranking them while using spells to hide his presence.
His skin is charcoal-colored like the Salamanders chapter. His eyes are fully black with only red glowing dots can be seen in his eyes, he wanted to be a Grim Reaper for sh*ts and giggles and looks badass which is his reason.
He is wearing a Divine Class armor, [Deaths Guard] (the Legion Judge armor from AQ worlds) it was colored blue and black, with skull markings around it. There were skulls on the shoulders and pads as decorations. On his back is his primary weapon, [Unholy Scythe] its a bony weapon with smoke emitting from the blade when equipped. No its not the same to the [Death Sickle] the one-hit instant kill weapon that Alcatraz used.
The [Unholy Scythe] can do lots of damage, it has fire and dark enchantments, can do extra damage to a living being. He's wearing a skull helmet with red glowing eyes behind it, which is a vanity but is enchanted with {Holy Protection}, {Elemental Resistance}, and {Scan}. (Scan is basically a from a sensor job class but it can be enchanted onto the armor)
He's walking alongside with his best pal and friend IRL, Orm Hakonarsson. Or rather True Malakay. (Like I said again, I suck at naming)
He is a human, a Divine Human to be accurate. A human race with an immortal features. The lore behind his race is basically, they are immortal. The Divine Human players focused on cleric-style spells (Basically if they focused on Holy-type spells they will be OP in their terms). The race is one of the Human races in YGGDRASIL, but they give few bonus facts to the players. They give immunity to holy spells - which is obvious since the class is like an Angel but a race without wings and in fact only human.
They also give adaptation to resistance, (for example when they are hit by a fire spell, the passive then activates automatically and makes some resistance to one specific element. Useful but only gives to one elemental resistance only) they're weak against Unholy spells and Instant Death spells/skills. Which is why they all focused on that 1/one particular weakness.
The Divine human is somewhat like an angel race, but they are deemed to be holy. Which is weird. They could have gotten some protection to Unholy spells and such dark magic, but then again, they're in a Human race not Heteromorphic race.
(Really hope you guys understand my explanation cause I suck at explaining things)
You must not give your weakness out in the open but you can in fact fool your enemies on thinking on your weakness, which actually gives you strength to be boosted for a short while. A tricky and hard race to use, but can get quite easy if you gather the correct items and sets.
Orm could have gotten to a magic caster class-based, but he prefers to choose a human type which is holy. His friend/s respect his decision on that. And he prefers going up close and personal, like his buddy; Khorne (Vince).
His chest covered with a bear tattoo, wearing a brown bear-fur coat and a bear mask (which covers his upper face). He has a brown long beard with eyes colored red and has a scar on both of his eyes. His friends made some light jokes on his appearance, like him, a young-adult in a body of a full-grown man. Of course they shut up immediately since they knew its going to cause some problems and Orm (True) would just make a great comeback to them.
He wears a DCI [Force Armor], a light leather armor. But dont be deceived by this because it can absorb heavy-huge damage on both physical and magical attacks, high defense against penetration, and it also increases the agility and magic defense on the wearer.
His bear cape is magically enchanted. Immunity to cold and lighting attacks and magic.
He is holding his main weapon as he named it: [God Splitter] a long, bearded battle axe. Its not mainly used for attacking but for defense. It has high defense and can parry strong attacks.
He also has 2/two small axes on his waistline, named as [Fang] and [Claw]. When equipped on both of his hands, it gradually increases his agility and speed attacks, but also gradually lowers his resistance.
"Thanks for coming with me man." A screen appeared at Lordez' side with a smiley face.
"It's not a problem man, I also want to see the game end with a friend anyways." He sent back a smiley face.
Lordez chuckled. "Better than alone."
"Aye." Orm nodded "Better than alone..." Orm repeated in a low tone.
The two are now walking beside each other, with a bear behind them following his master (Orm). They were headed to a specific destination; Midgard.
It was night time cycle and decided to end it under the beautiful night sky, which they will both remember the day. The day YGGDRASIL has ended.
Both of them hoped for a 2nd release for another YGGDRASIL, but they doubt it would come again. Not fully, but also not unexpectedly.
Both of them were standing on the edge of the cliff, looking at the shining, beautiful stars in the night sky. Gazing through the night skies, of course it is a virtual reality but it was still beautiful to see rather then looking up to the skies of smog and tall buildings of metal and glass.
"...Hey Orm."
Orm turned and faced to him with a raised eyebrow. "Hm?"
"You ever wonder why were here?" Lordez didnt turn his head to him as he spoke.
"In this game?"
"No I mean... In this world. Why do we create these things and possibly ignore the realities of whats going on, or whatsoever, on the outside..."
"..." Orm slowly turned towards the skies and looked up as he is listening to what his friend is talking about.
"I mean, what are we here? -No, why are we here? Are we here to make things better? Or worse?" He spoke in a low tone. Low, but enough for his friend to hear.
"...We dont get answers like that my friend." Orm sent a "understanding emote" to him. "Like you said few years ago, 'we're not perfect.'"
Lordez chuckled. "So you DO listened to my nonsense at all huh?"
"Thats because some- sorry, I mean MOST of them are completely BS. I mean like seriously, even Alcatraz could come up a better quote than you."
"Thats because he is older than me you idiot, I thought I told you that." He spoke loudly, in a irritated tone.
"And also your still learning."
"Not only me, you also!" They argued lightly for a while, but later stopped with a laughter.
"Quite a memory this will be..." Lordez spoke in a sad tone, and a sad emote appeared as well.
"Aye... The times with our comrades." He said in a Russian accent in the "comrades" part. It was a bad imitation. " *chuckles* Damn raiding those PK camps, felt awesome." A smirking emote appeared.
Lordez laughed a little. "Yeah, and we were screaming: "DIE BLASPHEMOUS HERETICS!" "
They laughed at the memory. "Those good o'l times..."
They then gazed silently once again to the night, beautiful sky.
Orm tapped onto the air and a console opened up, he checked the time and it was 3 minutes left for the game to end/close.
"Its almost time..." He tapped the air again and the console disappeared.
Lordez nodded weakly. "I wonder how our friends are doing." He spoke lowly. He opened up a console and checked his friend notifications. He has 56 friends (Including Alcatraz and Momonga/Ainz) but there are only 7 friends online (Alcatraz and Momonga/Ainz are online as well).
"Looks like Blood Reaper is still up."
"Really? Should we invite him?" He said in a almost surprised tone.
"...I dont think so, he may be busy with something and plus Alcatraz told me that he will be staying with Momonga during this final moments anyway."
Orm nodded. "Seems they got their way of waiting til the show ends. We can go to Nazarick right?"
Lordez thought for a bit then shook his head. "We can go there but I doubt we can still make it."
Orm sighed and a disappointing emote appeared. "Thats disappointing, but still." He looked at the night sky. "This is quite a calm way to end it."
Lordez gaze through the stars. "Aye... Twas a fun."
"What about Seeker?"
Lordez checked through his friends list. "It seems he is also online, but he messaged me in like few minutes ago that he is going to be at...Asgard."
"And why he is there?"
A "shrugged" emote appeared. "Dunno, he said something about staying on the top of the world and shout something."
"And what is he going to shout?"
"He didnt say." They both chuckled. They gotten silent again and gaze through the grassy plains.
Orm checked the time and it was now one minute left til the server ends. "Almost there... Your still teaching are you?"
Lordez arched a eyebrow before getting on what he is talking about. " *Chuckles* Not all the time, its a part time job for me now. What bout you? You done working on the restaurant?"
Orm chuckled. "No, still working there. I could find a good job but its quite hard to find one."
Lordez nodded. "Yeah, hard days..."
12 seconds left
"...You know." Orm looked at his friend. "All those days we've done with our comrades, those ungrateful bastards I can tell." He and Orm chuckled. "...It was a good life."
A smiling emote appeared on Lordez. Orm just looked at him with a glad/smiling emote.
"Aye... It has been."
"G' night man."
"You too."
'...It was fun ya'll.'
[3 seconds]
[2 seconds]
[1 seconds]
Both of them closed their eyes as they heard the last "beep" sound of their console notification.
Lordez opened his eyes and revealed his room, it was both organized and disorganized. He is at his living room, sitting on his gaming chair. He stretched his limbs, stood up, and went onto his merry way.
Or did that happened?
Lordez opened his eyes, and blinked in confusion.
'What? Shouldn't I be back at the screen menu? The hell?' He looked around and he is basically in a forest. It was night time as well. He can feel the air and can smell.
"What the hell?" He muttered. "There shouldnt be something like this at all..."
He looked at his hands, they are covered with the armor of his. He touched his face, it was cover with some hard material. He removed his left gauntlet and touched his face again with only a couple of his fingers. He's basically surprised and scared at the same time, but mostly surprised.
"Scales... Im in my game character..." He muttered silently. "This... Holy sh*t this is hard to believe..."
But a sound of a growl broke his little moment, he looked to where the sound came from and saw a wolf. A wolf covered with jet-black fur, and some bony plates around it, it has a white mask and red eyes glowing.
'GRIMM!?' He's gone mental now. 'WHY THE HELL IS A GRIMM HERE!?' But a green aura covered his whole self, he felt calm again.
"The f**k was that?" He muttered before getting an idea. "...Im an Undead... I shouldnt feel emotional."
Before he could think of anything else. There came a rustle at the bushes, he saw several Grimm appeared. They were growling at him.
"...I'll ask questions later." He equipped back his gauntlet and prepares himself in a stance. "Time to die." He spoke in a dark yet deep tone. He was surprised at that but he has to focus on surviving now.
A Beowolf then pounced at him. Lordez was slightly confused, it seemed that the Grimm was slow, farrrr too slow. But he quickly gotten the concept that he is in a lvl 100 game character, of f**king course he is extremely fast compared to this Beowolf.
Lordez chuckled and sighed with relief. "What the hell. Whats the damn reason Im scared of anyway?!" He walked towards the pounced Grimm, and punched it. It basically disappeared. The moment he punched the beowolf it basically vanished into tiny particles.
The Grimm were shocked and frozen in fear. The moment they saw their comrade first attacked the human, the Beowolf vanished the moment the human punched him. They felt the strength of this human for a brief second, far stronger than any other human they've encountered. No... Far stronger than Salem. Their senses cannot lie to them, they must serve this being. Their instincts were screaming at them to run away, fighting this human would mean their death and no doubt of it.
This human doesnt seem to have a 'living soul', but he or it is 'alive' no doubt. He/It doesnt have any aura protecting it but yet its mere presence made them be scared. It was unbelievable, but their instincts werent lying to them. Running away is their best and only option.
"You want more?" He taunted at the Grimm who just stood and looked at him in a frozen position. The Grimm looked at each other and ran. They madly ran away from this human.
"You're not getting away." He raised and pointed his hand at them. "{Chain Lighting}" A blue lighting came out from his palm and almost instantly reached at the running Grimm. The lighting touched the Grimm, and went on to another. They simply died and smoke dissipating.
'Huh. So thats how you use spells then huh? I hope I can do 'Silent Cast.'
He was silent for a moment before slapping himself. 'And I forgot to check their levels, f**k. As much as they are weak, I still need to check.' He made a mental note to check the lvls of the Grimm, individually.
He lowered his hand. And before he could do anything, he heard a loud sound, almost like an explosion, and it was coming nearby of him. He had a good clue who was that.
"...Orm." He quickly dashed towards the source of the sound/explosion without hesitation. He was shocked on how fast he is, but shrugged it off easily the moment he realized he is a lvl 100 character, no one can stop him in this world. Except of the possibility of the WCI, he hasnt thought of the possibility of the existence of that yet.
As soon as he saw Orm and his companion - still Misha - were standing in the middle of the battlefield. Basically numerous kinds of Grimm around them and emitting smoke.
"Orm!" Lordez ran towards him.
Orm turned around and saw his friend, he basically sighed with relief. "Lordez!"
As the two approached each other, they simply patted their friend's shoulder. "Good to see you."
"You too man!" He smirked.
"You sound quite weird." Orm pointed out. Lordez's voice is quite distorted yet a deep rough one.
"Same goes to you." Lordez also pointed out to him. Orm's voice is rough, slightly deep, but a manly one? Yeah thats the word.
"Now, you know where are we?"
Lordez's face tensed a bit. "Were in a animated show actually, RWBY."
"...Really?" Orm deadpanned.
"Yes. If I were to be lying then you realized that your ALIVE now right?" That made Orm to checked himself, basically tapping his finger onto his wrist and felt the beat.
"Wow... Im actually... Alive..." Orm was simply shocked to this conclusion. They are in their game characters and he is strong ASF, meanwhile Lordez is not able to feel 'alive'. He did feel pity and I mean actual pity on his friend, but having a emotion suppressor gives ups and downs. Misha was confused at his master statement, he is always alive. (Oh Misha how simple you are)
"You just noticed that like right now?" Lordez crossed his arms.
"Well sorry-" Orm said sarcastically. "-I was busy fighting a horde of weak monsters."
Lordez shrugged. "You got a point."
"Now back to the topic. Shouldnt we be at the screen menu?"
Lordez shook his head. "I doubt that, but if we're alive, and in these bodies... I got a huge suspicion that we got transported into RWBY."
Orm slightly widen his eyes. "...Transported into a-"
"-A animated show, Yes. It seems like it."
"...And you are not surprised at this?"
"I cant be surprised. Im an Undead and cant express emotions, which sucks." He said in a depressed tone.
Orm smirked. "Thats quite a feat."
"BUT I CANT BE A NORMAL HUMAN AND RELEASE MY F**KING EMOTIONS!" Almost after that a green aura covered him entirely. " *Sigh* Just like that, it just suppresses me too damn forcefully."
"I pity you then." Orm smirked a little. That was half-pity and half-amusement.
"Shut up." In a half angry tone.
"Nah."
As they both argued for a little while, and Misha just watching his master and his friend fighting with words - basically arguing with each other -, they've gotten back to the topic. Again. Lordez basically gave him a summarized version of the RWBY plot. Orm is basically not surprised, Lordez already expected this since his friends knows of him watching shows from the past. The 21st century past.
"So... What are we going to do now?" Orm asked as he was petting his bear (Misha) on the head.
Lordez thought for a good minute and spoke. "We'll find a shelter, but we must change our appearances."
"And whats the problem with our appearances?"
Lordez facepalmed. "We dont want to get any unwanted and wanted attention now do we?"
"Oh right... My bad." He smirked.
" *Sigh* Create your items now man, RCI ones. Having a DCI would draw out too much attention, RCI would draw out less if I place some enchantments to hide the power of our gear."
"Wait, our gear can emit power?"
Lordez sighed with irritation. "Just... Do what I said ok?"
Orm nodded his head. They both created their set of clothes.
Lordez is wearing a black-hooded trench coat, black shirt with a spider symbol on the front and around it, black pants, and skeleton-arm gloves which technically covers his whole arms.
He also changed his appearance: Red-slit eyes, some parts of his face are covered with black-colored scales and his skin tone is Pallor-Caucasian. His neck and most parts of his body are covered with dark scales. He doesn't wish to cover ALL of his scales, it looks awesome in his opinion. His hair is dark maroon.
He changed his choosing of arsenal to a mixed one. He uses a sniper rifle, he names it Grudge. His main weapon, a scythe made of black bones and enchanted with dreadful aura, he names it: Soul Eater which fits the description. and his favorite of all the time; Gauntlets. There would be no name for it as he has no time to give his gauntlets a name since it is a name from the show he watched; Xionic Madness Series. Having 2/two weapons would give attention to the people, but he will just ignore of it. His gauntlets can be hidden under his coat so it cant give attention.
Orm is wearing his usual bear hat, a bear-fur coat with a {Cold} enchantment on it to make himself look huge and comfortable at the same time, a leather jacket, black and green colored shirt, armored pants which looks quite heavy but he has enough strength to carry it. He also has leather gloves and armored boots. The boots were enchanted to make it light for him to run around, he doesnt like heavy things or things that makes him a bit restricted. Even though he can lift a giant ass boulder with ease.
As much as he hates to do this, he also changed his appearance. His eyes were now colored red with the mix of light blue, his beard is now gone and changed into a light stubble, he also placed scars all over his body and his face. Making it look like he has been to a hellish place, which kinda suits of his kind of attitude. His skin color has changed from light brown to dark blonde.
He also decided to use a Greatsword. He calls it Executioner (A sword from dark souls basically). And also has a secondary arsenal, a axe which he decided to name it Traveler's Axe (A weapon from AQW).
Lordez also placed {Weaken III} onto all of their gear and clothing (the {Weaken} spells/enchants has a limit, they can only be weaken at the limit of 50. Not anymore lower). Making them around lvl 50-55, though it seems like a bad idea in YGGDRASIL, but they arent in YGGDRASIL anymore and they can easily destroy this world with ease if they arent careful with their strength. Seeing the logic in this, Orm agreed.
And for our pet companion of Orm, Misha is lvl 100, though almost the same height as Hamsuke but it can take down a dozen times its size with just few minutes of combat. And now he is a lvl 50, but he can easily take down a giant Nevermore or a Beringel. Orm just basically removed most of his armor. The only ones left are just the spiky shoulder guards. The bear is technically covered with tribal tattoos, those were actually enchantments. Both offensive and defensive enchantments.
They are basically around lvl 50-55 (Like I said before). They are permanently lvl 100, but with their current stats, they are gradually weaken to a player in comparison of a lvl 50. Lordez told his friend that removing the clothing or changing it will release their strength, which Orm doesnt mind. He prefers to take a challenge rather than a challenge he can easily finish.
Lordez informed him that the enemies and creatures of RWBY are too f**king weak, like almost around lvl 22-27. He also theorized that the elder Grimm are around lvl 40 or higher, but he isnt sure of that yet until he finds one. Alive and well for him to appraise the lvl.
Orm was quite excited on how will this Elder Grimm fight, Lordez told him different kinds of Grimm which will appear, though he quite like to fight this Grimm Dragon for his friend theorized it will be around lvl 50-57. And to the "creator" of Grimm, Salem which he noticed that his friend despise and hate this "figure", and now he has a feeling she is the "bad guy" in this animated show.
Luckily, Lordez only told him about the plot and not the main cast. Because he is quite careless in keeping secrets, as he but he has changed long time ago. He only told him about team RWBY, team JNPR, Ozpin, and Salem, he will later tell about the other main cast both enemy and ally to his friend. But not now as they needed information on what year they are on. Or more importantly, what episode they are in?
(The bear is a He not a She. And he also has a name and its Misha)
"Huh, you look good." Lordez complimented to his friend, he does really look good. He has no beard and that is quite a relief of him inwardly.
"Same as yours." Orm fixed his clothing to get comfortable. "So where're we headed now? You got a spell to find a place right?"
Lordez nodded without speaking. His passive, "{Thermal Sight}" allows him to sense and see heat signatures of any beings. That is of course if they are alive of course. It can also sense living beings. Its a useful passive for Undead/Zombie players, and can toggle on/off.
He looked around and stopped at one specific direction, which caused Orm to noticed as well. "That place?" He pointed to where Lordez is looking at.
"Yes, its Vale no doubt." Lordez then deactivated his passive.
"You sure? It could be Beacon Academy."
Lordez slowly turned and narrowly eyed at his friend. "Dude, I know what and how Beacon Academy looks like. If it were Beacon then the heat signatures would be separated and clustered a bit." He said irritatingly. "Now I'll cast {Concealed Presence} onto us as we arrive there ok? Like I said before, having unwanted attention is going to give unnecessary problems in the future. Even though I know the plot."
Orm shrugged. "Just do it."
Lordez nodded and immediately casted {Concealed Presence} onto him, Orm, and Misha. He also casted a simple {Invisibility} to them. Orm was about to ask why he casted that, but his brain quickly told him that its going to be useful. So he just shut up the noch from his friends doing.
"{Mass Fly}" A blue aura covered the 3/three of them and hovered above the ground a little. "This way." Lordez said as he flew upwards, same goes to Misha and Orm.
As they were flying to Vale, as they can see the lights on the city quite clearly but a bit far, Lordez was testing if the {Message} spell can work.
[Oi, can you hear me?] Lordez asked.
[I can hear ya. That you Lordez?]
[Yea, its me. I was testing if it works]
[Well thank god it did, but can you try contacting on the others?]
[Sure ill- wait why dont you do it?]
[Well, Im quite busy admiring the damn view up here which you and I both have never ever seen stars like these in OUR DAMN LIFE!]
That gotten Lordez to put his attention onto their surroundings. They're flying above the skies and the forest below them, but he complied from his friends request to look up.
He was basically taken back by the beauty of the stars. The sky was covered with smog back in their world, but here, though it may be a animated show but it was still beautiful to see the sky like this. They have seen pictures on the internet and videos of it in the past, but they never got to see the stars personally.
But now they did.
"So... Beautiful..." Lordez commented. As they were flying Orm then gone near to him as they flew, Misha was beside to his master.
"I know right? We have long been wanted to see this... Now our wish has come true." Orm added.
Lordez chuckled. "Yeah, quite a wish. I never thought we would be able to see the stars."
"Like we could have." Orm laughed, while Lordez just made a small smile as he gaze at the stars. "Now, we need to focus on why we're here ok?"
Lordez nodded. "Yeah. We wont be leaving this world anytime." He remarked at the stars they were taking a look at, Orm just nodded.
'Hopefully not.'
About few minutes later, they've arrived at Vale. They are still flying around, Lordez was searching for a specific Dust Shop. Orm just followed him without question as his friend knows - probably - where the shop is located at and how it looks like, but the shop's name is: From Dust Til Dawn. Orm liked the title as it seemingly fits perfectly from what it sells.
They managed to find it, they settled down on one of the buildings roof tops and looked down on Roman Torchwick and his goons entering the shop.
'Looks like we're in episode 1 then huh?' Lordez thought with amusement.
"...Should we go after them?" Orm asked his friend as he held onto the handle of his greatsword.
For a few seconds, he shook his head. "No, just wait. We'll be joining in the fight later."
Orm looked at him for a good moment and released his grip from his blade, he looked down at the shop. This girl "Ruby" from what his friend told him, is a weapons maniac and uses a scythe, he was a bit surprised for a girl to wield such a weapon at the age of 15, but he regain his composure for this is just a animated show they were transported into. Anything could happen.
As Lordez and Orm wanted to get into the fight, they resisted the urge. Lordez is waiting for a good opportunity to join in, she can handle Torchwick's goons with ease, but to Roman? He isnt sure. Roman's lvl is 19, Ruby is at lvl 18. Sure she can beat him with her scythe skill and how she fights, and Roman is somewhat a trickster at combat.
He didnt need to check the lvl of the henchmen/goons, since they are quite weak and not even to be a threat to them. Actually none of Remnant are a threat to him or his friend at all. Including Misha, you must not underestimate this bear.
After a few moments they went in, a goon was sent flying through the window. Which caused Orm to raised an eyebrow to who threw the goon out of the window, but he already show that it was a girl in a red hood who did it, he has a feeling that she is Ruby. Meanwhile, Lordez simply smirked a little.
Orm simply just got surprised, for a small girl with a huge ass scythe as her weapon. But then again, having a shotgun gauntlets from Yang, which his friend told him about her, didnt surprise much to him.
As Roman's henchmen then attacked Ruby, she simply managed to beat them with ease. But it also seem quite uncomfortable for a girl to use a scythe though, heavy as it seems but the Aura makes her to use it properly.
As soon Ruby beat the last henchman, Orm noticed Roman was muttering something to a downed henchman beneath him.
Roman took out his cigar and spoke. "Well, Red, I think we can all say its been an eventful evening, and as much I'd love to stick around.." He pointed his cane onto Ruby.
"Im afraid this is were we part ways." He fired his cane, and Ruby dodged the attack. The two players noticed Roman running towards a building with a ladder and climbing it.
"Sooo... Now?" Orm asked with a raised eyebrow.
Lordez nodded. "Now." He said lowly but enough for him to hear.
Orm grinned and pulled out his Traveler's Axe.
Both of them jumped few roof tops and landed behind on where Ruby and Roman is at, they were behind Ruby and she is quite too focused on Roman for a moment.
"More of you!?" Roman shouted to Orm and Lordez. "This just keeps going better and better." He muttered.
Ruby turned around and saw two more people, they seemed to be armed and is certainly sure they arent with Roman.
Before Ruby could speak to them, Roman spoke up first. "End of the line, Red, Black, and Brown!" Lordez chuckled at his words. Roman threw a red crystal dust, which could only mean its explosive, and landed at Ruby's feet. Roman aimed with his cane and shot it, and yes causing a huge ass explosion.
As the dust and dirt subsided, with a laughing Roman on the bullhead, Lordez basically shielded Ruby with himself. Arms down, face up, nothing on his clothes at all, he wasnt damaged by a lowly explosion such as that. It gave almost no data enough for it to damage him, he was expecting pain, but pain didnt came.
"Agh... That didnt even hurt." Lordez grunted and complained.
"You hog all the fun, Lordez..." Orm crossed his arms.
Lordez smirked. "Just follow the lead dude." Lordez pulled out his Grudge, and aimed it at the Bullhead's engine. He could kill Roman instantly the moment he pulled out his sniper rifle, but that time could wait.
Roman got to the cockpit and told Cinder; "We got a huntsman! two of them!" Cinder and Roman exchanged, Roman took the controls and Cinder does the work. She got to the side of the Bullhead and uses her powers at the 3 people (Cinder's Semblance isnt confirmed or known yet and she gotten half of Amber's powers anyway).
As woman in red (Cinder) fired her powers or fire (which is same) at them, Lordez jumped back and used {Message} to Orm to block it, since he's got high physical and magical defense. Lordez isnt sure if Cinder's powers is same as magic, but he checked her lvl which is ranged about 58. He can easily beat her, but he prefers a challenge.
He will wait for the time when Cinder will gather the other half of Amber's power and make her powerful, he isnt sure how strong she will get, but it takes up the challenge.
As Orm blocked Cinder's attack, he regains his footing and activates his skill; |Skorda|. As he slashed his axe at the air, which is aimed and pointed at the Bullhead - basically at Cinder - a white blur appeared from Orm's Pole-Axe and flew towards Cinder at high speed. Cinder managed to block it, but only barely due to how fast it is.
"Tsk." Orm was quite annoyed that it didnt slash through the flying vehicle - Bullhead - and his skill was also weaken from the {Weaken III} spells. Annoying at it seems, he and his friend has to bear with it until Lordez gives the call for them to use their full strength. Not FULLY, but only slightly.
After Orm's flying slash attack (so f**king cringey), Ruby snapped back to reality and regained her focus, she transformed her scythe into a sniper and fired upon the woman in red. But she just blocked the bullets with ease, afterwards she attacked them once again but this time she summons fiery pillars from the ground. Which of course the two players noticed it, Lordez pushed Ruby out of the way, Orm and Misha just jumped out of the red circle which in time just summons a explosive pillar.
As they regained themselves, they noticed the Bullhead is escaping. Lordez then aimed his sniper rifle and fired few shots at the Bullhead's engine, but clearly the hull is somehow too thick for his bullet to pierce through, which also made Lordez to remember to place some enchantments on his weapons. Making them more efficient and stronger.
They could follow them using {Flight} or {Mass Fly} and take them down with extreme ease, but Lordez didnt want to spoil the plot that easily. And they dont like questions coming from Ruby.
About moments later, Glynda have arrived. She arrived a late before the show started, Lordez wondered if they did something bad in the plot but shrugged it off.
Glynda walked towards the group. "Your a huntress." Ruby spoke up before any of them did.
Glynda just glared at Ruby with a frown on her face. "Can I have your autograph?" In a cute way as possible. It worked at Orm and Lordez from her cute voice and tone.
The players shifted a little, Glynda turned to them and spoke. "You two will be coming with me."
'Its not gonna end well.' The players thought in unison. Of course Lordez already knows whats going to happen but he just ignores 'that' part.
After about an hour, they are currently at the police station.
Which of course they are sitting on the chairs with a metal table, and a light only shining them. Basically an interrogation.
Ruby sat in the middle while Lordez and Orm sat at the sides. Basically Orm is at the left of Ruby and Lordez at the right of Ruby.
"I hope you realize that your actions tonight will not be taken lightly, young lady." She glared at the 2 players. "And as well as you two gentlemen." But both of them were unfazed from her usual glare.
"You 3/three placed yourselves and others in great danger."
"They started it!" Ruby exclaimed. Lordez and Orm just sat silently, looking at Glynda - without turning their heads - as she walks around.
"If it were up to me, you 3 be sent home... With a pat on the back." Ruby smiled. "... And a slap on the wrist." Glynda's tone changed. Ruby almost got hit by her riding crop, just barely as she jerked her hands back quickly.
"Eeek!"
Glynda sighed lightly. "But... there is someone who here who would like to meet you." That caused Ruby to raised an eyebrow at that. Lordez folded his arms as the door opens, which is a man in a black and green suit, a cup on his left hand - which is no doubt coffee, and a plate full of cookies on the other. Which is Ozpin.
"Ruby Rose..." Ozpin began to speak. He slightly leaned forward a bit. "You... Have silver eyes..."
Ruby was confused. "... Um."
Ozpin then turns to Lordez and Orm, who just shifted slightly from their seats. "And you two... You both have red eyes..."
"..." Both of them were silent of this.
[Wait, thats it?]
[Hm?]
[Thats it? Just that?]
[Its part of the plot my friend, besides Ruby has something she never knew]
[Hmmmm]
"So!" Ozpin exclaimed. "Where did you learn to do this?" He gestured at Glynda holding a scroll and showing Ruby fighting the henchmen with her scythe.
"S-Signal Academy."
"They taught you to use one of the most dangerous weapons ever designed?"
"Well, one teacher in particular..." He handed the plate full of cookies to her. She slowly takes one, and then takes several. Orm was taken back a bit by how Ruby just ate 5 cookies without chewing them and basically just bite them. ONE BITE!
"Its just that I've only seen one other scythe-wielder of that skill before." Ozpin continued. "A dusty, old crow." He glanced away.
"Mhmmm! Thash mah unkle!" Ozpin raised an eyebrow.
"She means and I quote: "Thats my uncle." " Lordez replied.
"You understand what she says with her mouth full?" He turns to Lordez.
Lordez shrugged. "I've got some things I know..."
"Hmmm..." Ozpin looked at him for a good while and turned back to Ruby.
"Yes. Thats my uncle Qrow. He's a teacher at Signal! I was a complete garbage when he took me under his wing. And now Im all wooyahh! Hachya!" Ruby start to make some hand gestures and poorly imitated handchops. Orm laughed lightly at what he's seeing, Lordez just looked away and covered his eyes, but he was smirking a little bit.
He known that it would soon be coming but its just... way too embarrassing for him to watch it.
"So I've noticed." He placed his coffee on the table. "And what is an adorable girl such as yourself doing at school designed to train warriors?"
"Well..." Ruby started. "I want to be a Huntress." She said with bits of confident in her tone.
"So you want to slay monsters?"
"...Yeah!" She paused a sec. "I only have a couple more years of training left at Signal. And then I'm going to apply to Beacon. You see, my sister's starting there this year, and she's starting to become a Huntress, and Im trying to become a Huntress 'cause I wanna help people. My parents also taught us to help others, so I thought; "Hey, I might as well make a career out of it!". I mean the police are alright, but the Huntsman and Huntresses are just so much more romantic and exciting and really, gosh, you know!"
There was a silent and really awkward moment there. Orm was just mentally head broken by how a girl like her can speak like that. "...So you wish to help others by becoming a Huntress." Lordez broke the awkwardness.
"Yes!" She replied with almost no hesitation.
Lordez's face is blank, no emotions at all. He then sat up straight and leaned a bit towards Ruby, he looked at her in the eyes. Which caused her to be a bit uncomfortable.
"...But are you prepared for what is coming?" He asked her, causing her to be in a deep thought.
"No matter what happens, I want to help people when I become a Huntress!" She said with no hint of worry and spoke in a tone of confidence and with small pride. Almost remembering her from one of the characters of a certain anime, "Luffy" if he got the name right.
Lordez and Ozpin smiled at the little girl's determination. Lordez then leaned back, causing Ruby to feel comfortable of her personal space.
"...Do you know who I am?" Ozpin said, making them to look at him.
"Your Professor Ozpin. You're the Headmaster of Beacon."
He looked at her for a while. "Hello."
"Nice to meet you." Ruby bowed her head.
"You want to come to my school?"
She leaned her head a bit forward. "More than anything."
Ozpin glanced at Glynda, which she just made a "Hmmpfhh" sound as she looks away.
[Is she always like this?] Orm asked with curiosity.
[Yes]
"Well okay."
Ruby is basically smiling right now. As Lordez could remember, this is how the part cut scenes, but unfortunately this is real life now.
"Now then, you may leave now Ms. Rose." Ozpin slowly stood up.
"Ok, professor." She took the last batch of cookies from the plate and walked out of the room, she is basically happy that she is now accepted into Beacon, even though she is like 2 years early to enroll.
The moment the door closes, Ozpin then turned to the suspicious players. "Now, I may apologize for not including you both in our conversation." He said.
Lordez chuckled. "My friend and I decided not to speak and only when to, besides it did sound like a serious conversation to the two of you even on how Ms. Rose speaks."
"Indeed." He nodded. "But this isnt about her now-" He sat down. "-this is about you two."
Lordez and Orm are unfazed on how his tone changed. "May I ask of your names?"
"Lordez Grimm."
"Orm Hakonarsson."
"Odd names..." Ozpin muttered. "But may I ask you this," He turned to Lordez. "Why is your last name "Grimm""?
Lordez frowned at this. "... Im afraid that is a personal secret, my good sir. I cannot answer that question."
"It is alright, some secrets are meant to be forgotten." He nodded. "...May I also ask you two, and I apologize in advance, but... You both are not from here are you?"
"No we arent." Both of them shook their heads.
"..." Ozpin took a good look at the players, he is suspicious. Including the bear (Misha). They have been leaking out huge amounts of aura, almost looked like they cant control it. "Would you two like to join to Beacon as well?"
There was silent on the room. Ozpin and Lordez have been both staring at each other quite hard, Glynda was to speak up but it seems something tells her not to speak up, Orm was silent as well. But he knows better of his friend in socializing, he himself isnt good at that, which results of him having a small group of friends behind him, alot in the internet but they didnt count when in personal.
Lordez leaned back from his seat. "What made you ask this?" He crossed his arms.
"Well... Considering on how you both fought and seemingly looked like you are in need of a place to stay." Lordez slightly widen his eyes from this, sure they can just stay on somewhere else, but staying on Beacon gives lots of advantages. Hell even he could possibly eat! (His a Zombie guys, not a Skeleton. Zombies can eat, Skeletons cant).
Lordez and Orm looked at each other.
[Would that be fine with you?] Lordez asked his comrade.
[Aye, better than staying in the woods and abandon buildings. Plus like you said before; free food!]
Lordez chuckled. [Then its a decision]
Lordez then looked back at Ozpin. "We accept." That caused him to smile a bit.
"But we arent young to be students, so what are we?" Lordez asked him also making Orm to wonder what job they will have. Orm doesnt know how to teach so he crossed out that job list part.
"Of course you wont be, you two would be professors of Beacon Academy."
"I'd rather not be, sir." Orm raised his hand.
"And why is that?" Glynda spoke up. "You said you want to join Beacon but you wish not to?"
Lordez shook his head. "Its not that... He dont know how to teach."
"Oh." Ozpin turned to Lordez. "What about you then? Can you?"
"Not literature, maybe fighting and training your students to become better in fighting." He turned to Orm. "Im not sure about him, but me I can... Just maybe." He can rely on his Master Trainer job class, but he isnt sure if the skills of the job class can work automatically when he "trains" someone.
Ozpin hummed. "Very well then... What do you wish for your friend to be?" He raised an eyebrow.
"He'll be a guard."
"And will he accept?"
They looked at Orm, who is just looking at his hands in a closed position. Looking as if he is thinking deeply. Lordez just glanced at him as both of them are talking in a link.
[Wait why would I be a fricking guard!? All I'll do is just walk around and patrol!]
[Well at least you got a job idiot! At least you got a place to stay, and free food for us!]
[Hmmm... That actually sounds smart]
[YOU CHANGED TOO DAMN FAST!]
[I like food, you cant blame me] Orm chuckled.
Lordez mentally grunted. [Just... Just trust me on this one ok?]
[Very well, comrade]
As it was silent for quite awhile, Orm raised his head and spoke. "Aye... I accept the terms."
Ozpin smiled, he extended his hand. "Welcome to Beacon Academy."
Lordez took his hand and he shook it. "Pleasure of having us, Ozpin." He smirked.
Made a new one. Tiring asf.
Hope this is much better than the old one I made, its shit in comparison to this one.
Wait for the next chapter yall
