How It All Began, Who Are The Roses?
A clearing in the forest, a beautiful clearing filled to the brim with roses. In the middle lay a grizzly bear. It was sleeping peacefully in the serene atmosphere however; it could not go on forever…
The bear awoke from its slumber by a sinister roar, it scrambled to its paws in an attempt to ready itself. Alas, it didn't have a chance against this monstrous monstrosity. It was -plainly stated- terrifying, it looked to be just a bear. However, that is as innocent as this beast ever was. It had horrifying and fear inducing red eyes, which could drain ones soul and spirit. Taking away every chance of survival, its body has an external bone growth, which acted as platting with the same bloody red colored marking as its piercing eyes. It stood at a terrifying ten foot high, with arms as thick as tree trunks. Its arms looked to be able to crush boulders to rubble. Its claws was just as devastating they were long and sharp-as a butcher's knife. The claws, chipped at the edge too increase shredding, as they would have done.
For the beasts, ambush, was-literally-cut short, as there was a loud bang and followed by the short whistle of air. The beast head and platting had no chance of withstanding the force the bullet carried with it. Its head just exploded, as if it was a balloon. However, the gore that came from within its head. Its blood and brain masses coated the clearing hitting the many roses intensifying the red roses color. The gore also got on innocent grizzly bear. It was something not many could watch without feeling it tugging in ones stomach, almost, as if the food one had ate was trying to crawl up through ones throat and out ones mouth. As for grizzly who should have been dead, by the claws of the beast? It had fled the clearing, fearing that its hide was next. While the bear fled, its predator fell with a soft thud.
However, some have trained for-years to take beast, as this one down, to protect the innocents and withhold the peace of remnant. These people, these hunters and huntresses would do just that.
The culprits of this saving was perch, atop in the crowns of one the mighty trees this forest consisted of. There were a cheerful cheer emitting from one of the trees crown, it came from a petite girl with a pure snowy white cloak.
"Yeah you got it!" Cheered the petite girl, she held a massive Cheshire grin. She had her arms straight up in the air, with clutched fist. However, the one who shoot and saw the damage wasn't fairing that well compare to his Best friend.
"Y-yeah but urgh it ain't a pretty sight, I think I'll go throw up." Said the boy, as he gave the rifle to her so he wouldn't get vomit in it. "Let's go home when my stomach settles, alright?"
"Sure, sure Qrow you're just a little pansy!" The white cloaked girl teased, as she tried to close of the sound of Qrow vomiting. 'Urgh this is disgusting.'
"Sure, I'm the pansy while you still can't sleep without the light on." The boy known, as Qrow retorted. He whipped his mouth in his sleeve; he then grabbed his blackish cloak from one of the branches.
"Hey!" Summer exclaimed, as her pale cheeks got a slight pink.
"Summer let's just go by the sight, then if you aren't spilling your contents. Then you can call me a pansy, all right?" Qrow challenged his best friend. As he smirked at her, his face still green from earlier. Knowing that she would vomit or, have nightmares for some time after this in her memory.
"Umm huh, sure I won't be throwing up." She said. Though her voice was betraying her, the nerves was getting to her.
"Alright let's go." Qrow said, as he jumped down from the platform they were on up there.
He was plummeting towards ground, in the last few feet he use his semblance to roll out. It looked like he combusted into crows, there he were crouched a few ten feet from the tree trunk. He looked up to see if Summer was coming, she was. She just tucked and rolled however, when she stood up from the tuck and roll she was face to face with Qrow who held a smirk.
"Seems like you still don't have a firm grasp on that semblance of yours?" Qrow teased.
"Hoo, hoo, just because I don't need to use it for that simple drop." Summer retorted. Making Qrow, grow a little red faced.
"Let's just get going." Qrow said. While he tried to ignore her giggling and keep walking.
"Yeah, yeah but what about Grimm?" Summer asked. While she tried to stop her giggling, as she looked up to Qrow. She applied her innocent puppy dog eyes filled with worry, Qrow was never the one to stand those eyes. However, while her parents could with ease. As well as his own parents, even his damn older brother Taiyang and her Grimm could, apparently, he just couldn't withstand them.
"Alright we'll go look for hi-" Qrow didn't get to finish his sentence, he then felt his hair stand on up on his neck. He knew this wasn't because of the higher levels of electrodes, in the air caused by a certain someone's semblance.
Someone arrived at the tree with them, he heard something he hoped he wouldn't hear so close to his person before after he graduated from signal. A sinister howl, looking behind himself to see a wolf like monster. He knew this wasn't a normal wolf, for they unlike the bear they saw earlier was by all means extinct. This one had the same growth the bear like beast had; even the red eyes and markings were almost the same. This one was even bigger than the bear; it stood at a roughly fifteen feet tall, its claws looking even deadlier then the other beast. The monster roared at them, making the two back up in fear. Qrow stumbled and fell over a branch on the ground. The monster took its chance to strike the downed boy.
Qrow could almost see his life pass before his eyes, but Qrow rolled away just in time to miss the strike taking to a stand with a new drive. 'No I can't die; I can't let it get to Summer. I just hope you get here in time… Grimm where the fuck are you, we need bloody you.' Qrow thought to himself, as he barely dodged the beast again he was starting to gain cuts and bruises. He rolled out of the tuck and roll, he arrived at Summer's side. 'Wait Summer!' Qrow inwardly roared in fear, as he twisted his head to looked, at her only to see her face tearstained, pale, while relatively unscratched. He looked to see if she had gotten hurt elsewhere. Then he noticed it, the rifle he had used earlier.
Qrow made for the rifle, he drop and roll. Once he had his hands on the rifle, as quickly as he could aimed at the monster. It was nowhere in sight, he looked around quickly trying to deducting where it could be. His training slowly surfacing. 'Straight, left, right, beh-'
"Qrow look out!" Scream a terrified Summer as she looked on, as her best friend didn't have the time to get away. "NOOO! QROW!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. She didn't care if the monster turned to her, as long as he survived. Qrow just disappeared from her line of sight, as if he wasn't even there to begin with. The beast howled in pain, as if it had been hurt. Summer looked at the beast; she still feared it going charging her. However, when she got a good look at it, it look as if someone had used a saw to rip its stomach open. She saw a blur appear at edge of her vision besides her, instantly she knew Qrow was all right. When the person was visible, she saw who it was, saw Grimm. She saw that his Katana out of its sheath; the blade of the katana was an surprising and eerie clean, as there are no sign of him ever striking the beast.
"I'm so sorry Summer, I took too long, It won't happen again I promise." Her brother promised her. They heard the monster roar at them; her brother just looked at it and turned back to her. "Take care of Qrow, I'll take care of the big bad wolf over there, all right." He said. As he put Qrow down from his shoulder, he lay Qrow as close to Summer as he could. He turned back to the charging beast; he sheathed his blade, as he turned towards the charging beast, his body slowly coiled in his electric aura. It seemed to manifest into lightning like presence. He slightly tensed, as he seemed to be forcing his aura into his blade to increase the power of his next strike.
The sound of thunderclaps rung through the air and he was off. Summer saw him flicker out of existence.
However, what Summer couldn't see were, that he Sped towards the beast with almost the speed of a lightning strike. As Grimm dashed at the beast, he drew his blade and cut down from left to right. Which meant he was cutting through the beast from its right shoulder to its left hip. He slowed to a stop on the other side of the beast; he then slowly sheathed his blade, which still hadn't been stained by blood. As the guard of the blade hit the scabbard with a click.
Grimm flickered back in Summer's vision on the other side of behind the beast. Summer looked on, in awe of Grimm's strength and speed. She saw that from the beast body came blood spurting everywhere, as the now corpse slowly fall apart in two pieces cut diagonally from its right shoulder to its left hip. Grimm reappeared by her side, she suddenly felt 'really' tired, as if it was forced?'
"Just sleep Summer, I'll get us home, don't worry about it." Her brother comforted her, as he cradled her in his arms as she slowly fell asleep. "Grimm… why were you… late?" Summer drowsily asked that, before she fell asleep in a deep slumber fore, she knew subconsciously, that she was truly safe in his arms. "Just taking care of some bad dogs, that's all now sleep, you'll need it." Grimm said to Summer, though she was already sleeping in his arms. He positioned her on his hip like a father his child, he grabbed Qrow's weapon and slung it over his shoulder and then Qrow over the same shoulder. He walked through the forest; he tensed slightly readying for another jump, one could then hear the sound of thunder and he was gone. Where he stood, there were the signs of a lightning strike the spot, it was scorch, as if lighting had truly struck.
