Chapter 1

Beginning of the End

Airships once again fly through the skies of Vale, signifying the arrival of new students. Some are excited to train to become Huntsman or Huntresses, and some are scared of the trials that they have to come through. In the forest of tall boys and girls, a short-sized man standing 167 cm... stood out from most of the males.

Despite his size, he's incredibly lean and toned. His sleeveless jacket is brown, similar to a bear's fur. His coat had a fur collar, giving him the appearance of a berserker. Completing his upper body, a pauldron shaped like a bear skull is placed on his left shoulder. Behind his back, a pair of battle axes the size of half of his arm are sheathed in a holster. He wears grey jeans and black boots. His pants have straps and belts full of bullets and revolver chambers filled with Dust bullets. All of that was usually hidden underneath a green cloth tasset with small bags filled with ammunition. His bright green hair is rather shaggy, but despite that, it still went handsomely with his sharp features, complete with scars from battles. His eyes shine a dark green.

This man's name is Berde Bazahka.

Usually, he's questioned on his entrance to such a prestigious academy due to his uncouth appearance. He still remembered that day Ozpin visited him in the hospital after he defended a town from a Grimm infestation. There was a large hole on the ground, but he used his strength to carry various heavy objects to block the path. He proceeded to fight the Grimm all by himself with no backup. When he woke up, the town he fought to save didn't fall to the Grimm despite the fact he cleared over 50% of the Grimm infesting the town. That was before Kingdom forces heard the signal and banished the Grimm as well as properly sealing the hole. Due to such an act, Ozpin found his talents and potential interesting and gave him the choice to enroll.

"Where did you learn how to fight like that, Mister Berde?" Ozpin asked.

"I learned how to fight from a gang known as the Marauders. After a few years since I left the gang, Mohawk Tribal challenged me to a duel. He defeated me easily and offered me to learn at Signal. I learned how to fight more swiftly through Mohawk."

Glynda used her Semblance to lift his axe, noticing its incredible weight.

"Why do you carry such heavy weapons?" Ozpin asked.

"Because if I swing a normal axe, its head would fall out from my sheer strength."

"These axes together weigh the equivalent of a very heavyset man!" Glynda exclaimed.

Ozpin scanned his body. His body was incredibly muscular, though it retained a "thin" look.

"How'd you develop such active muscles?"

"Mohawk and my other friends at the Marauders put me through a training to not only lift heavy objects, but to highly concentrate my pink muscles."

"Hmmm... your strength, and your talents with this weapon can make you a great huntsman. Your defence on this town had shown a truly selfless act worthy of a Huntsman. Would you like to enroll as a student in Beacon Academy?"

"... You are Ozpin, correct?"

"Yes."

He smiled from that memory. Before that, it was usually the opposite of what people usually told him. He sighed and shook his head, not wanting to dwell in the past. Despite this, he's all alone; he has no friends that also came, nor did he have any siblings he remembers. He's no cynic, but he doesn't mind being alone. All of a sudden, he heard loud scribbles close by. He looked to his left to see a lonely bespectacled girl with dark blue hair, and grey eyes, resembling the color of a shark.

She wore a grey sleeveless sode with a blue sleeveless haori. Her detached sleeves are grey like her sode, giving her the illusion of wearing a full yukata. She completes the set with deep blue leggings and grey boots. Her symbol is a curved shark, which was emblazoned on the back of her haori. Her weapons are daishou, a katana and a wakizashi. The swords lacked a guard, looking like a curved but carved stick. She was busy scribbling on a note book, which got the axe wielder curious. When she spotted the berserker, she frowned and closed her book.

"Who are you?!" she asked, "Why are you eavesdropping on me?!"

"... I was uh... curious as to why you're scribbling so loud..." he nervously said, causing the girl to get confused.

"Are you saying my scribbling is loud?!" she scribbled again, which caught the attention of a few students.

Berde looked at them and shrugged.

"Judging by the small group of people looking at you... I guess?"

"Well... beat it!"

He glanced at her notebook. One of the characters were too complicated for Berde to read, but a group of characters were easier to read.

"Sa...me..ko," he read her cover.

The bespectacled girl stared at the berserker with a raised brow.

"How'd you know my name?" she asked.

He pointed at her notebook, causing the shark girl to look.

"Oh, so you can read that," she said, a bit more curious and interested, "Where'd you learn to read that?"

"Signal Academy," Berde replied, "To avoid awkward conversation, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Berde Bazahka."

She chuckled at his last name much to Berde's confusion.

"Bazahka? What kind of dumb family name is that?"

"... it's my dumb family name," he said, unfazed by her reply.

"Well, you know that my first name is Sameko. I'm Shintai Sameko, or you can just call me Sameko Shintai," she said, "Pleasure to have been met."

Despite having a hard time talking to women, Berde felt a very sister-like connection with her, possibly due to the fluidity of their conversation.

"So, what school did you come from?" Berde asked, "I've never heard you around Signal before."

"I'm from Mistral. I came from Sanctum Academy."

"... So, how did you get in to Beacon?" Berde asked Sameko, "You look quite young."

"Simple," she scuffled through her bag and got a series of certificates and papers that acknowledge her academic prowess, "Scholarships and bursaries."

Berde was enchanted by her achievements. He realized that he doesn't have too many achievements on paper, but rather achievements based on his scars and blood splattered on his axes.

"You?"

Berde took out his scroll and showed a video of him in a nearly destroyed village, fighting a bunch of Grimm alone. Sameko was surprised that the guy in front of him was the One Man army who cleared over 50% of the Grimm in the small village.

"You're the One-Man Army?!" Sameko said, "Holy crap, I can't even survive that many cuts!"

Berde smiled from her acknowledgement.

"But that's weird, it was on a Tuesday at around 2-9pm. Didn't you say that you were a student at Signal?!" Sameko asked, putting her hands on her hips.

"I... was... but let's just say I had a bit of a fallout," Berde said, unwilling to continue this issue further.

"Oh," she understood that this prying might get too far, "But man, how'd you learn to survive a whole infestation?!"

He shook his head with a smile.

"That story can wait, Shark girl," Berde said, earning a chuckle from the shorter lady.

An awkward silence took over. Berde wondered what to say next while Sameko continued to scribble.

"Sameko, are your weapons just two swords, or is it a hyrbrid electric boogaloo like every weapon in this seri-er I mean place."

She unsheathed her swords, revealing segmented marks on the blades. The tips of the sword looked like they were designed to hold strings. She joined the butts of the swords together and formed a bow; the string being made out of Dust.

"Whoa!"

"I call it Aquaphoria, this is a weapon that I inherited... from my parents," she said, showing a hint of forlorn before shifting to a curious look, "Your weapons look quite simple."

"Simple? You'll find out one thing that's not 'simple' about it," he brandished his axes, revealing a revolver chamber in the base of eacn axe.

"Meet Green Envy, and Verdant Terror," Berde tried to say it in a cool and threatening manner.

Sameko yawned, unfazed by his act.

"Boys have such simple weapons," she said, "I mean, I could build something like-"

"Can you hold an axe for a bit?"

"Why sure-WHOA!" the axe immediately dropped to the ground, as she could barely carry it. She twitched and glared at Berde, wondering how he could carry a weapon this heavy like a feather.

"How much does this weapon weigh?!" she asked, scared from the sheer weight of the weapon.

Berde shrugged.

"A lot."


Somewhere in the airship, a princely figure patiently awaited for his flight. While charming and princely, a certain event in his past had ruined his reputation, causing him to lose that princely charm. Despite that, he was charming nonetheless.

A tall suave man with celeste hair. He wears a white dress shirt underneath a black coat that mixed a blazer and a jacket, lined with golden chains. His black pants have three golden chains on each side. This is the man known as Indigo Sangre.

His split great sword had a flap that stored Dust Magazines. He examines the Dust Bullets he was about to put in before storing them in the flaps. He looked at the secondary flap, which dispensed the shells, and cleaned it out. He wouldn't want his sword to be overfilled with excess Dust. He wondered if his little sister was-

"Indie~!" a little girl's voice called out.

The blue cat Faunus was suddenly sitting beside Indigo, who was scared from her presence.

"Azure, you're not supposed to be out here," Indigo said.

"Then why'd you bring me to Beacon?" she asked.

Indigo sighed.

"Well, I applied for Beacon, and they accepted me into the institution," Indigo said, "When I pass the test, they'll give us dorms so that we can live there."

"B-but won't the security find out?" Azure said with a sad look.

"Some students from Vacuo, or even Haven are permitted to visit during school days," Indigo replied, smiling at his adoptive little sister.

"Why did you apply to Beacon again?" she asked.

Indigo fused his swords back and put it aside. He held Azure's Dagger Revolver and showed it to him.

"Two reasons, lil sis. One..." he made a slicing motion, "To fight for the humans, the Faunus, and even the animals. To fight against the Grimm who continuously try to dominate the world with misery and destruction. I want to bring an ice age to those Grimm while protecting the humans through my ice age."

"Ice age?"

Indigo chuckled.

"I'm just being dramatic, Azure," Indigo said, earning a giggle from his lil sister.

"The second reason is so that I can escape from him..."

"Your daddy?"

He nodded, not speaking any further as he passed her weapon back to her. Unbeknownst to the prince, a brown skinned teen with blue hair clad in blue armour approached the prince and tapped his shoulder. His lance rested on his back. Indigo looked at who tapped his shoulder.

"Hello, um... can you help me look for my cousin?" the blue haired man asked, "I'm Blue Wyrmtongue."

"I'm Indigo Sangre," Indie replied with a smile as he stood up, "Sure, I'll help."

He walked through the crowd and looked around for Blue's cousin. Due to not knowing what Blue's cousin looked like, he asked the young boy.

"So, what does your cousin look like?" he asked.

"Oh, she's a black haired girl clad in orange. You can recognize her by her flaming tiger symbol."

Indie whistled, imagining what Blue's cousin looked like. Since they're headed to Beacon, there's sure to be a multitude of smoking hot chicks there.

He looked at Blue's cape, which has his symbol emblazoned on it; a wyvern with its tail representing a tidal wave. Indigo found his large lance interesting.

"So, where did you come from?"

"I come from Vacuo. My cousin does too. My parents moved to Mistral and I attended Haven."

Indigo scanned him. He looked quite young.

"How old are you?"

"I'm 16."

"Huh? How did you get here so early?"

"... Well, a certain professor apparently scouted my cousin and I after a run-in with a gang member who had a pretty high bounty."

"High bounty?!" Indigo asked, confused from this, "Did you kick his ass?"

Blue chuckled, remembering the time he froze his ship, then his arm.

"Well, all I know is he kicked my ass in weapon combat, but, I used my Dust and Semblance to turn the tides," Blue said with a smile.

"I don't know why, but were you trying to make a sort of pun?" Indigo raised his brow, strangely not affected by his supposed humour.

He groaned and facepalmed.

"Look man, just because my cape has a water wyvern, doesn't mean I make water puns all the time!" Blue comically outraged.

"Okay okay okay," Indigo said, making a slight chuckle until he bumped into someone.

He fell back and looked at who he bumped. The girl had brown skin like Blue, and her robes were orange. She had one big left sleeve, while her other arm was sleeveless. The sleeveless part revealed a black undershirt underneath the robe. She wears black bike shorts with two orange "coat tails" with square ends and armoured boots. Her knee-pads looked like tiger skulls, and give the image of a roaring one when she bends her knees. A purple sash wrapped around her waist with a chain that showed a flaming tiger.

"... What the hell! Watch where you freaking walk, you dunce!" she shouted.

"There you are, Naraka," Blue said as he helped her up, "Why are you here?"

Naraka glared at him with a fiery rage.

"What do you mean?! You told me to wait here while you went sight seeing! How many times must you forget what I tell you?!"

Indigo did a brief whistle then approached her. He found her quite attractive.

"Hey, Naraka, you're looking smoking today," Indigo flirted, earning him a boot to the head... and one for Blue, the wimp.

"Who the hell are you?! Do you flirt with EVERY girl you see?"

He didn't. He was too busy cleaning out his weapons and just waiting for the trip to be over. He ran so damn far to get to the airship to Beacon, so he needed some rest. Despite that, he willingly helped Blue, even with some sore legs.

"This is my cousin: Naraka Krohda," Blue said as he stood up.

"Why do you even call yourself Blue, Niida?" Naraka said, earning a "Shhh" from her cousin.

"Shut up!"

"Whatever... BLUE," she chuckled from how ridiculous she thinks his name is.

Blue helped Indie up to his feet and shook his hand.

"Thanks for helping, man," Blue said with a friendly tone, "Good luck in Beacon."

"Your cousin is hot, but she sure has a tongue," Indigo said with suave tone to Blue.

"The hell did you say about me?!"

"Run."


Blue walked out of the airship and breathed in the fresh air. He heard someone else breathing it in also.

He was slightly taller than the blue lancer. He wears a red prince-like robe with a white cravat over a white dress shirt. His black breastplate is worn over his shirt. He has a small black thigh pads on his white pants, complete with black boots. He has a flowing black cape with a red interior. Resting on his back, a large shield and a large folded lance rested there. This teen is named Draconum Tepes.

"DRACO!"

"BLUE!"

They hugged each other and separated shortly, looking at each other with nostalgic smiles.

"What are you doing here in Beacon?" Blue asked.

"I actually won through scholarship," Draco said, "They said that due to my efforts and role in fights, I was definitely a good fit for Beacon."

Blue looked at his weapon.

"Nice rifle," Blue commented.

He brandished it and unfolded, revealing the giant rifle having four large bayonets; the bottom bayonet is the largest. He revealed his shield, which also housed a multi-rocket launcher. The shield was definitely an eyecatcher for Blue.

"Whoa, that's a neat weapon," Blue said, dazzled by the sheer firepower of the shield, "What did you call those babies?"

He folded his lance and closed the shield flaps before putting them on his back.

"The gunlance is called Dragonshell, and the shield is called Dragonscale," Draco noticed his jousting lance, "That's a nice lance."

He unsheathed his lance and showed it to him. He unrolled the chamber near the handle of the lance, revealing Dust cartridges.

"I call this Grand Tidal. It may not look like it, but Grand Tidal is a scary weapon," Blue commented.

As he sheathed his weapon, a tall girl in punk attire pushed them aside rudely.

"Hey!" Draco shouted at the punk.

She looked back and scoffed before walking away. She wore a long white coat with her symbol pasted on her back: a skull with flowers on both sides. Her pink hair has a shaved area on where her right sideburns should be. They didn't see it that much, but she wore blue skinny jeans with black combat boots.

"Wow, rude," Blue commented, earning ignorance from the girl.

"I've seen her before, Blue," Draco commented, his eyes squinted as he stared at her.

"Who's that?"

"Nadeshiko Yamato. She's a heavily wanted criminal. Why is she here?!"

A white flash passed by them, then returned to both boys. The white flash revealed a lady standing around Berde's height. She was blonde, and her eyes were as silver as the mineral itself. Her skin was pale, and her sky blue blouse mixed well with her white vest. She wears bike shorts with a white tasset that resembled wings. Her weapons were stored in two sheathes; a pair of large curved blades.

"Um... uh, you're Blue, right?" she asked, peppy for something that both don't know.

"... Um... How do you know?" Blue asked, "Who are you?"

She frantically looked around.

"I'm Subasa Garuda. I saw you with him," Subasa grumbled.

She zoomed close to his face and stared at him crazy eyes.

"Where's Indigo Sangre?!" she said crazily, worrying both boys.

"Indigo?" he looked side to side then shrugged, "I don't know."

She sighed and suddenly floated into the air; a small tornado carrying her up. The two were surprised by her use of Dust... or possibly her Semblance. She jettisoned toward the academy while shouting Indigo's name. Naraka walked past the two with Blue noticing.

"Hey, Naraka, where are you going?" Draco asked the tall female, getting no reply from the tall tan girl. He looked at Blue with a worried look.

"Nara prefers to be alone," he said, "Long story, but no time to ask. We should head to the academy."

Both lancers walked toward the academy. All of a sudden, Indigo walks up behind them, looking around frantically. Blue turned around and waved at him.

"Oh, Indi-" his greeting was interrupted by the blonde girl's flashing dash. Indie himself turned into a flashing dash.

"..." Blue was stunned. Draco shrugged, retaining a smile.

"Welcome to Beacon, I guess. Home to not only the Prestigious, but abnormal."


Author's Note

So, first RWBY fic. My friends and I talked about RWBY and after a creative frustration, we decided to make our own. Of course, the names of the main characters had to follow the colour naming rule.

Berde- Green in Tagalog

Indigo - ... You should know this.

Naraka - Sanskrit/Hindi for Hell... or usually known as the Hindu/Buddhist underworld. Naraka is usually like hell, where the punished are cooked in fire (orange and red).

Sameko - Japanese for Shark child/shark girl. Sharks are commonly blue or grey.

Blue - Obviously. Niida means Blue in Hindi/Sanskrit.

Draconum - Based on the Order of the Dragon (Ordo Draconum), an order that Vlad(The Impaler) Tepes came from. Their emblem's primary color is red.

Subasa - Broken form of Tsubasa, which means wing in Japanese. Bird wings are usually white, gold, or brown.

Nadeshiko - A Japanese flower with a pinkish-white colouration. Her full name refers to Yamato Nadeshiko, which is usually associated with the "ideal woman".

As for now, I'll mostly work on this. Also, RWBY hype~!

RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth, created by the late Monty Oum.
