Author's Note: So I was just looking through some files and the anticipation had been starting to kill me for the part few days.

I wanted to post this but I wasn't sure when. This was something that had been written a couple months ago, but I was somewhat hesitant to put it out there due to other projects in progress, schooling, the name of the main protagonist, et cetera.

With this being said, I will place this disclaimer here and now.

Doctor Monty is NOT to be confused with the creator of RWBY, Monty Oum.

I was honestly dumbfounded when as a "new" RWBY fan, only getting into the series a few months ago, I had found out the terrible fate that had been met with Monty Oum a couple years ago. May that man continue to Rest In Peace.

Thank you to everyone who decided to click on this crossover. I hope the content I am to deliver in the future extends out to your enjoyment!

Throughout the months, while working on other things, I will try my best to carefully map out this story's plot as best as I can.

"You think you will kill me now…?"

…

"RAGH!"

It was cold. It was dark. Nikolai fought well but in the end, the yearning of his memories consumed him in anger. In his last breath, he fought for Stalingrad. In his last breath, he was confronted with himself for rugged reconsolidation on his past but now he was free…

It was strange. Where could he have been? His battle scarred body had been abandoned in Stalingrad in trade for his soul to go free. The light that transcended his soul only left the wandering ghost of the drunk Russian to stand in anger, loathing on his defeat, his wife, and a thirst for vodka…but all of that disappeared in a flash. As if he had been reset, his soul was given new life in the body of a child.

Confused at first, as if those old scars of his life still clung onto the reincarnated Nikolai, he stared at himself. His hands were no longer big and burly, and his body was a prime example of what it felt like to feel clean. Soon, the child looked up from himself and saw the man that had exerted his merciful will onto him. Before giving a stern and firm nod, the man in green walked off into the shadows.

Alone and confused, Nikolai walked forward, staring at all of the '935' marked machinery set up. The slow steps up the stairs was an absolutely frightening endeavour. The blinding sun stretched its light passed the basement door as it was pulled open. Nikolai adjusted quickly, slowly trudging with every step as the warmth of the sun continued to char away the negative emotions he once possessed.

Taking a mental note of the rooms he was exploring, he admired the simple sight of a house that had not been torn apart in fire and destruction. Everything that was there, be it a piano, fireplace, cabinets, or bookshelf, remained safely in place with no real danger soon about to come forth.

He continued exploring until finally…finally, he was no longer alone. A dog, a girl, and three other boys, playing with small dolls put them down, acknowledging and welcoming Nikolai into the room.

Without hesitation, he slowly closed the door behind him and sat himself down to meet the other children.

"Hello Nikolai." The girl greeted him with a warm smile. "Welcome home."

"Ah…my work here is done…"

"Yes. Thank you Doctor Monty. I will be absolutely sure to care for the children. The dark days of my work at Group 935 are finally behind me."

"Yes, yes, they're finally free. It's been so good working with you Maxxy boy but I am in dire need of a vacation. I'm going to need to say one last goodbye before heading off."

"You're not going to stay? But what about-?"

"Oh no, I will be coming back, but I just need to make sure I get enough rest before I have to continue my omnipresent role in the universe...or should I say all the other universes and dimensions…you'll be fine Maxis. The key is locked away safely and now you can take care of two of the same people along with your daughter, Samantha. Now…if you will excuse me…"

Okay. Uh…hello? Do I have your attention? Are you all still here or do you absolutely hate how this started?

AHEM…

Alright…I'll probably do this from time to time, but from here on out, unless if absolutely necessary, I'll do my best to guide you through this. First person narration and all…

I suppose the only reason you are here is because of me, Doctor Monty. You probably know everything…eh…most things about me. You probably know that I was the one dropping off the magic boxes, chalk drawings, perk drinks, gumball machines, et cetera, et fucking cetera, oh let's just get on with it…

I don't think I need to recap what went on with the Summoning Key along with Richtofen and friends, using that term bluntly. Yatta, yatta, yatta, that's all done now. They're all safe in The House.

Just in case anything went wrong, Maxis trusted that the Summoning Key was to be locked up, by yours truly of course. I couldn't just leave the 'most powerful artifact in this or any other dimension' just lying on the fucking table! Imagine how bad it would have been if I did!

So assuming that you are still sitting there, whether it'd be on a mobile or electronic device, I want to tell you all a fucking story! Whoopee! What? You want to hear the time when I made an app? That's for another time good friends.

Let's start…you with me? Countdown. Five, four, three, two, one.

So once upon a FUCKING time, I was just enjoying my own vacation. Now you're probably asking, 'Monty, where on Earth would you go for an ideal vacation?' Well hold on my son, for I will tell you. Hint, NOT PLANET EARTH.

There was another world, an alternate reality.

I decided to call this place Remnant. Sounds quirky doesn't it? GOOD! That's because it is! I didn't know what else to really call it. 'Earth' was already taken and I needed something else as a placeholder for another world rather than 'Earth 2.0'. Shit…I'm rambling again aren't I?

Okayokayokay, I'LL GET ON WITH IT!

So my vacation basically involved me sitting in a chair like a lazy ass, enjoying a nice warm fire while letting time pass by. Tick tock. I didn't really go out to speak to people, since I honestly still needed a break from that one too. It was a good thing the house I stayed in was far, FAR away from any nearby civilization.

So here's where things start to get tricky…

One day when it was snowing, and when the winter season had come to pass, I stared out my window and low and behold, there's a girl sitting outside my house under the tree. And get this! This woman, I assume she has some degree of intelligence, she's wearing a blue monumental robe of some kind and she has her hair done up in a bun. When I looked at her, I thought three things:

One.

SHE IS A FUCKING IDIOT WHO WANTS TO FREEZE TO DEATH.

Two.

If I didn't know any better, she and Takeo could have had a field day. This state of meditation and serenity really reminded me of that Samurai warrior.

And three…oh boy…

I wanted a piece. You know, even with my vacation and relaxation time, I still think about all those things I have done in my time. Do you have ANY IDEA how much shit over the years I had to keep track of? I just wanted to be that woman. I just wanted the opportunity to just lay back in connection to something that isn't nothing.

I wanted to know why she was there so what did I do…? I basically asked why she was there and all she said was, "My name is Winter, I am on a journey, and I am waiting for my sisters."

…What? What the hell did that even mean? Fuck it…I fell asleep again before I could even continue fathoming on a question. When I opened my eyes again, it was nice and warm. The woman was still alive and there was someone else joining the party, another woman who seemed to have a relishing smile while holding a basket.

The term to describe that woman? Uh…'Flowery'? Let's just stick to 'Flowery.' It matched the season at that particular time anyway.

So the same thing happens again, I ask who she is and she simply responds, "My name is Spring, I am on a journey, and I am waiting for my sisters."

I guess the two were related…bugger if I could know at the time. They looked nothing like each other. This is the part where I step outside and I was kind of giving them the stink eye, you know, the kind that would tell anyone to 'get the fuck out of here and leave.'

Instead she just skips along, all cheerful and all happy, and she takes out what's in her basket and places the seeds in the old garden behind my house! OH SHIT! I forgot about my garden all that time vacationing! Bollocks…

I was probably standing there for hours watching her work. I could have simply snapped my finger and I could have had my garden back but I just wanted to see for myself what she would do. By the time her laboring is complete, THERE'S ANOTHER ONE! So there's Winter and Spring…who was this purple one?

"My name is Summer, I am on a journey, and I am waiting for my sister."

DEJA FUCKING VU!

"Of course you are…" I basically said it in the grumpiest way possible. Their smiles didn't let up though. Eventually those smiles seemed to turn into laughter.

They were laughing at me. I think my insistence of staying indoors is what was making them laugh. So they wanted to play games? I gave 'em one! Or did they give me one? Summer was really getting on my fucking nerves…I couldn't exactly be mad. At least these guys were giving me something I haven't felt in a while, and that was some good ol' appreciation. The last time I was given any sort of appreciation for anything was when I entrusted the children to Maxis.

While I was having fun with the three girls, watching the scenery around me, playing a little game called 'tag', et cetera, et cetera, I actually started to really miss those four bastards. I couldn't exactly poof them there at that specific time, that's not how it works. Even if it did work like that, I probably would have been breaking apart the linear time and space that was giving Remnant life.

If Dempsey, Nikolai, Takeo, or Richtofen teleported into this world, it'd be fucking chaos. I'm the only one able to travel to Remnant without shifting time or causing paradoxes. It is my job after all, to make sure every single dimension is in place.

Now where was I before I was giving you a ramble again? I was playing with Spring, Summer, and Winter? Yeah, that's it.

So after I was done just going along with it pretending like I was having a great time, which I honestly was to be fair, they continued to push the boundaries beyond my expectations. I hadn't expected it but somehow, they miracled a full course feast in front of me. Vegetables, some meat, stew. They wanted me to eat it with them. Awkward pauses aside, I had to admit something to them while they were adjusting the table.

"…Uh…I actually never ate anything before…"

Not that I didn't know how to eat it's just that since I was pretty much everywhere all the time, I never really had the need to eat anything before. All these girls did was giggle and laugh. I hate this part…Winter just puts a napkin over my beloved red scarf and I sit down to take a bite of the ham with the fork I was using.

I told them, "It was good."

I'm not going to lie, I never ate anything better in my life before and any time beyond that feast would basically have me trying to recreate that recipe. These guys pulled off some serious labor.

So this is where things begin to conclude…the last of the sisters came. She seemed to remind me of the autumn season and I knew what she was going to say.

"Let me guess. Your name is Fall and you're here so you can meet your sisters."

"Yes sir. That is exactly who I am and that is exactly why I am here. Who are you?"

Shit…I wasn't sure if I could trust them with my name yet. I decided to just keep stalling.

"Well…I…I'm just some old man and I've been here for…"

Bloody hell and it seems that I've lost track of the time as well. So here they are, the feast is not yet eaten and I stand there looking at the sun just past the mountains with both my hands on my head. It took a bloody while, but I turned to them to give them an answer.

"Ladies…I've bene here for so fucking long, that I really have no idea how much time I pissed away. I honestly don't know if I should have left by now."

"Well…what were you doing before all of this?"

"You see Fall, I was…can you guys keep a secret?"

This is where I knew I was fucking up. As soon as those words escaped my mouth, I was trembling. Kind of on a scale of 'to be or not to be' I was hoping at the time that this wasn't something I would regret. I've had those incident before.

So I told them…

"I was in charge of bringing men safely home into the realm of heaven."

Oh how itching it was to see those four girls just open their jaws. They were definitely in awe, I'll give them that. Not the response they would have expected.

"Short version, I'm just the guy who tried his very best to keep up with the title. There's nothing more to me…is there?"

Fall tries to fathom me with veracious words. It seemed to work but I still needed to be sure this wasn't a fluke.

"Sir, do you not see? You have so much."

"Okay just one other question. How come you four, despite me being an absolute prune, choose to help me out? Do you do this all the time? Do you four come in to bother other hermits and make your entrances in the same sequential order?"

"Sir…we try to do what we can for everyone we meet as we are able to."

"Well that's nice…would it hurt if I had to tell you four to bug off? I certainly appreciate your kind services but I think you guys have stuck around long enough."

Okay maybe that was a little too harsh. I didn't hate these guys but I didn't like them either. How could they claim to do the same thing I do without any sort of supernatural, omnipotent powers like mine? That's when I started to really figure it out!

The others didn't talk but Fall was really starting to look nervous and sad.

"…What are you proposing sir?"

"I could probably have you four do me a favor and continue to go out into the world to do your good biddings to other people, or I just wipe you from existence and do things myself."

"Wipe us from existence?"

"Oh you don't think I can do it?! Well then…"

I was pushing their buttons. I didn't REALLY mean to make them fade away, but it was still happening. They didn't think I could do it but there they were, freaking out that their bodies were transparent and the entirety of their matter was going floating away in little orange particles.

"I have a better idea."

In a shining flash of light, I granted them the powers of the elements. If you people can remember those staffs, this is kind of familiar. I gave them the ability to channel the elements based off their names.

Winter had the ability to control ice.

Spring could grow things in the palm of her hand.

Summer could wield fire.

And lastly, Fall was able to…okay she was just blowing Autumn leaves everywhere. I'm sure she'll find some other use.

"Eh sorry for the entire 'wipe you from existence' gizmo. But please, will you four use this magic to enhance your ability to help people around the world? Because I sure as hell can't keep up!"

"We would honored sir!"

And so there we have it…that's the story of how my vacation took the turn for the better, and how I met those four lovely ladies. Before those four could leave the premises, I stopped them one last time. Oh how I just tear up from thinking of that story. Oh dear…I need some Kleenex…I'll be right back. I'll let the story roll on while I'm gone.

"I did not introduce myself have I? Okay ahem…I'm…Doctor Monty. Hello…so nice to see you all."
