In my life I was a horrible person well if you define horrible by not lying to yourself, I always laughed at the picture of a guy holding a golden cross saying that we should pray for children in Africa I'm pretty sure that he could have sold it for a massive sum and fed tens of them if not hundreds.

I always saw the worst in humanity, I honestly wanted to cry at some humans stupidity how can a child have more logical thinking then some people I mean there are people who literally blame the doctor if their friend,parent or basically someone close to them dies and they sue the hospital but if the doctors manage to cure someone it was gods will, those type of people honestly have IQ lower then their shoe size.

I also can't feel anything for people who's pain I haven't experienced first hand or don't know them, sure I help random people but that's more my upbringing then anything, the only real sadness I feel if something happens to my family or friends, I honestly don't feel anything for the people who die or live in terror of a terrorist attack, I live in a country where a few hundred people could die, and nobody except our neighbors and maybe America would have noticed.

And before anyone says anything about me disliking Christians I read more parts of the Bible then most considering that most simply have it as a heirloom from their grandmother that's gathering dust on the shelf, honestly it's an interesting book it gives you a good view on the people who lived two thousand years ago and on their moral values.

Anyway I might have pissed of the wrong person honestly why would you be angry at me for speaking the truth I just said that his father was an abusive asshole that beat him like a bad owner a dog, really I don't understand people I was just stating a fact why was he so pissed anyway I didn't have a chance to ask him as he pushed me off the bridge, fucking asshole!

As I opened my eyes I was weirded out a little I thought I died and I knew there were three options.

A. There isn't a god an ill simply stop existing .

B. There is a god and I did something to piss him off and I'm going to hell.

C. There is a god and for a bullshit crime of not believing a two thousand year book written by some desert husks, I'm going to hell.

And since there literally was nothing here, like really nothing just a white space.

And suddenly a message appeared before me it read "Welcome you have been chosen to be thrown into the word of RWBY"

My eye twitched, yep definitely hell humanity on the brink of destruction from an evil horde of giant monsters, while I would know the future I wouldn't have an incentive to change it and really people like Ruby walk on my nerves so naive and naive come on girl I knew more about how the real world worked When I was ten come on, her sister protectiveness is abuse at this point, what if she won't be there to protect Red, hmm the real world is cruel and harsh, and if it can it will kick you in the balls, tragedies strike twice and while you might not be interested in war war is interested in you.

And the world of RWBY is a fucked up place also I'll probably survive a week and then somehow piss of a group of Faunus saying that the white fang are terrorists at this point, what is with people who don't want to look at the truth, I know I'm not perfect nobody is but I'm not going to start claiming that I am actually a good friend, I won't betray you but if you think you're a hard worker but really you're lazy I'll simply say that to your face, I won't lie to make you happier, repearing your own faults should be satisfaction for your own self not living in an imaginary world where you're perfect.

Another message appeared after I stopped thinking.

"Due to the strength of some elements in remnant you can chose a special power".

Can I turn into general grievous from Star Wars pls pls I started begging in my mind, general grievous was my favorite Star Wars character honestly people call him a coward yet he is the only competent commander in the CIS honestly did you see some of them, also he was the only guy able to go head to head with Obi Wan Kenobi for minutes and that guy had enough layers of plot armor he could have been shot in the head and walking the next day.

"Yes you will be able to turn into Grievous" read another message .

Sweet I have a lot of training when it goes about swords, but I'll have to learn how to fight using four arms, and when I do I will be a badass.

I'm also an expert at hand to hand, you might be asking how that idiot pushed me of the bridge well it was because I was standing with my back towards him, so the next thing I saw and thought was "oh shit" as I was flying through the air about to crack my spine.

"You will be dropped of on the continent of Anima that houses Mistral".

Not in Vale that's good I will be far away from that place when shit hits the fan also there wasn't any talks about terrorist attacks there so all will be good though I have a feeling that I forgot about something why am I thinking of Qrow ehh it's probably not important.

As I closed my Eyes I felt ground beneath me, when I opened them I saw that I had a black cloak on? And some black clothes with leather reinforcement and combat boots, and two swords they were both long swords both had red blades, I noticed that I felt lighter.

As I was walking trough the forest I came up upon a town it had a wall that was six meters tall, and some buildings made of wood and stone when I entered the city I suddenly heard a scream, while I might not feel anything towards people I don't know I still did help out when I could, I immediately ran towards the area I her the scream as I was passing the buildings some of them looked like a monster wrecked their doors… yea definitely beowolve having a snack time, as I continued running (faster then ever before) I got to the place where i heard the scream someone was laying down on the ground, I didn't know what she or he looked like nor did I care,right now the only thing i cared about was the beowolve on top of her it was heavily armored, shit didn't I say tragedies went in pairs.

I quickly took out my swords and yelled to it "Hey you big ugly fucker did Salem make you particularly ugly or did she try to create a look alike like her" I knew that the best way to piss of a stupid animal was to insult it especially its mother though everyone was pissed if his mother was being insulted.

The elder Grimm turned towards me very slowly and then it jumped, I tried to block unused to fighting something faster and stronger then a swordsman from earth, it threw us into the ground, I thanked whatever deity existed that it unlocked my Aura or I'd be paste, and then it started hitting and clawing at me, while I deflected those attacks that I could the Grimm was making good progress into my Aura if I didn't think of a way to kill it and fast my Grievous cloak will be painted red with my organs as decorations.

Wait Grievous that's it I'll turn into him but how maybe some code ah fuck it I'll start saying random things from his life maybe I'll get lucky.

Droid general…Cyborg…Kaleesh at this my body morphed it was an unpleasant feeling but not painful, still definitely beat being mauled by a beowolve.

I felt getting stronger and taller as well as the Grimm looked a bit slower, if I got Grievous's reflexes this will be over soon.

The mutated wolf tried to punch my new body and I caught it's arm, and then the second one, heh I was stronger then an elder beowolve then I tried thinking of having four arms and man did it feel weird it didn't hurt but the feeling was really weird, the two arms were still held by my hands in place I took the other two and picked my swords from the ground and stabbed where I knew there wasn't armor, after all for the beowolve to retain its mobility it doesn't have armor between its body and its limbs it was probably its only weak point where attacks actually mattered, I cut of his arms clean of, the Grimm roared and fell on its back, it being the stupid beast it was trying to get up and attack me again.

I quickly got up on my now claws and cut of his legs, and then I took both of my swords and started cutting the flesh under the armor, after cutting out pieces of the Grimm the armor on those pieces deteriorated into thin air leaving its insides to cut up, after cutting and the body deteriorating, I got up my new steel like body doing loud clangs as I moved after all Grievous build his body to be as intimidating as possible there was some kind of way to move quietly but I'll have to discover it.

When I looked around I noticed that the empty street was now filled with people who were looking at me, suddenly a man came he dressed in richer clothes so I guessed that he was the mayor of this town.

Mayor:"welcome stranger and thank you for saving little Alice" at this he made a hand movement towards a little girl, I guessed she was the one screaming and being attacked by beowolve.

The girl wasn't tall I would guess she's six years old she had black hair and beautiful orange eyes, she was dressed in a black dress.

Mayor:"can we please talk in private for a moment?".

Hmm I guess I have time to spare since I didn't have anything else to do so I said "very well lead the way" then he started moving through the streets I followed closely, after placing cutters (sword name) into their sheathes.

After a while we came to a house that screamed rich compared to the others it wasn't even that the others were made of dirt this house was simply bigger and had more decorations as well as having a much nicer architecture, he opened the door after looking for the right key and invited me inside, we then came to what I guessed was his office after all who needs ten bookcases filled with books in one room, after changing into a man again I sat on the chair and we started talking.

Mayor:"that elder Grimm killed our guard before he could raise the alarm then it proceeded to sneak into the towns walls, it killed four people including him, as well as the girls mother".

I wondered why was he telling me this after all the problem was dealt with I wasn't needed here.

Mayor:"anyway the girl doesn't have any parents right now her father left the village years ago to hunt this beowolve as it was attacking the town I know because the Grimm he hunted had a scar running across the beasts forehead".

Hmm yes now that I actually think about it… yes it did have that scar I simply ignored it cause it wasn't deep so it wasn't a target worth attacking.

Mayor:"anyway the man had blond hair and yellow eyes like you…"

I blocked everything out and quickly looked towards the closest mirror and to my horror my face changed, my hair dark like the night instead of blond and my eyes yellow instead of blue.

Mayor:"so I have a deal the child was to young to remember her father, so you can take his place you will get ownership of anything that he owned as well as what his wife owned, and you'll take custody of the child and work isn't a problem he was a known hunter before his… disappearance".

Sure i always did want a daughter and I might help raise and shape a new woman, while I never went out of my way to help anyone, if I was near I helped people generally liked me for that… and I need something to occupy me and I cant believe I'll be training my Grievous body and I needed something to forget my former family and the few friends I had, they'll live good lives without me they're strong, my disappearance will shock them might even give them depression but they know I would want them to live even without me.

"Very well I accept your contract, so what's my new name" I said a sad smile on my face.

Mayor:"your new name will be John Shadow, don't worry about her asking questions the villagers know the deal I'm giving you and are wiling to support my story they think that it's for the best that someone took care of her".

It was years since I came to this realm, life was good my work was patrolling a certain radius around our town every day and exterminating the Grimm there wasn't another attack since I started my job, the Grimm population was low and weak around here since no negative emotion was made here after all it was a small community too small for any violence to occur as everyone knew each other and were friends.

I trained my Grievous body and was happy to say that I could fight using four hands as well as two even better sometimes, I learned how to walk stealthily (no sounds) and I became a legend as many people witnessed a 'spirit' destroying elder Grimm near the town, only the town folk knew of my semblance and kept a tight mouth when visitors asked about the 'spirit guardian'.

So my weapons wouldn't be recognizable I asked the blacksmith to forge me four identical longswords which I wore under my cloak all four of them were deep red, my two cutters on my hips, I wondered how was it that nobody recognized my cloak as the cape that the 'guardian spirit' had on it but then again some people weren't the brightest.

Alice Shadow my daughter I had to console her after becoming her 'father' I had to say things like "mommy is in a better place" and "she never left you she is still here" at that I pointed to her heart… what I might dislike naivety but a child that is six should be carefree and happy not depressed unlike Ruby who somehow is still innocent at the age of fifteen somehow (I call abuse, it's impossible to have that level of naivety without being locked up in some area where the only people that come near you were nice to you).

After spending so many years with her I grew into my role as her father and I began to see her as my daughter, I taught her how to wield a sword, so that she could protect herself if she were without me in danger or simply wanted to become a huntress her sword is called Light Shadow for it is half white and half black it was a long sword too, anyway the only real changes from those years ago are that she stopped wearing dresses and started wearing what I called adventure armor basically black clothes with reinforced leather padding and she adopted a black cloak from me as well, I don't know if she sees me as a hero and wants to be like me.

I taught her how to act and told her that should she ever be in a fight it's sometimes better to pretend that you're someone you're really not, when asked why I said people are more afraid of psychos charging at them or you can pretend that you like to slowly kill your victims making them retreat, when asked where I learned to be an actor I tolled her that I wanted to control my face movements as a kid and sat before a mirror moving some parts of my face and knowing how it looked so I now know how to move my face to show what I'm thinking or how to lie without showing the signs of lying.

As I was sitting in my house (secret underground only people who know of its existence are the town folk it's used as a bunker if somehow a lucky Grimm gets through my scans they'll have somewhere to hide) when I got a message from one of my informants (one of our own who decided to try his luck in the city) that the person of interest was coming to the village and with him three other people, I cursed my own rotten luck I knew ever since the legend of the 'guardian spirit' began that somewhere down the line Ozpin would either send Qrow or go himself here, after all one weird occurrence people might have made up but there are tens of people who witnessed me as Grievous kill elder Grimm cementing that I was in fact real.

I didn't even need to read their description I already knew who was coming here Jack said that Qrow didn't use the name Branwen and for a good reason the Branwen clan is infamous and people specifically those who were lucky or unlucky to survive considering they were alone wanted their blood, a bunch of thieves and murderers, their stupidity astounds me if civilization falls they won't survive a year while they are stronger and more militant than the other tribes they started living off of what the can pillage meaning that if there is no one left to kill they'll turn on themselves or die from hunger.

I have a few days until they get here more then plenty of time to prepare, I'll make sure that our town looks poor but strong so that Raven when she leaves her life now will decide that this place isn't worth attacking, also I'll have Alice look at Raven and tell her to memorize as much as she can because she's a bandit that is more of a barbarian.

Time skip

The town no longer looked as rich as before and the people dressed in older clothes, they all heard who was coming and they didn't like the fact that a Branwen of all people would be allowed into the town, when I told them this they looked at me like I told them that I released a Grimm in the town, so I explained how we would pretend to be poor so they won't remember us, Branwens nobody liked them, and I explained that the only real danger would be Raven as her brother likes a hunters life and doesn't want to go back to being a killer, they will also be in the presence of two teammates that were definitely on the good side of the law.

Now just to wait for them I can guess what questions they'll ask but assuming makes and ass out of you and me doesn't it.

Qrow POV

Damm I miss Beacon the man at the docks recognized me as a Branwen while he didn't say anything after we locked eyes and looked away but still keeping him in my line of sight his eyes narrowed like he saw something evil, great here we are on day one and were already disliked for having red eyes, while sure red eyed people do live in other kingdoms, in Mistral a majority of them are in the Branwen clan doing so that if you were born with red eyes and just came to town everyone would be on high alert expecting an attack or would be simply distrustful of you rude even.

While Summer and Tai were looking at the architecture with eyes filled with amazement Raven was watching the hills outside the town with longing… I couldn't understand her why did she feel such a connection to those monsters after living in Beacon I finally saw what my 'family' really was a bunch of thief's and murderers and pillagers.

Time skip

We were moving for hours alongside the road to the city in the center of where this 'Guardian Spirit' was that Ozpin told us to investigate, after all one or three people can lie but tens of them detailing the same monster to the detail and his fights with elder Grimm, anyway what I do know is that the parts here are being hunted by a self trained hunter heh I wonder how strong he is probably Summer could beat him alone, after all the Grimm he gets to kill are simple beowolves with the occasional Ursa, no we're here to look for the big fish himself the so called 'spirit'.

As we finally arrived we didn't expect a almost desolate town to great us, sure they did have a wall and buildings made of wood and stone but there were no decorations that were famous in Mistral, hmm guess this really is a poor town.

I suddenly heard movement and when I turned towards it we saw a small girl in a black cloak with orange eyes glowing from under them she turned away and started to run, while she wasn't as fast as us she was still damm fast and we all knew that innocents didn't run at the sight of hunters, after that we were running behind her, though she was smarter then I thought she knew she didn't have a chance at out running hunter she dodged into an alleyway, when we found our way there we saw her climbing on crates and jumping on a roof.

I had to give it to her she was smart and agile as she ran away from us, after some time we were able to finally corner her in an alleyway while we were a little winded from that the girl was panting and fell on the floor her back supporting the wall behind her.

"Okay so why did you run on our sight" I said wondering if she noticed mine and Ravens eyes.

Unknown black cloak girl:"and why wouldn't I run on your sight your kind is trouble" she said a bit defensively and was that fear in her eyes?

Summer:"but were hunters from Beacon" she couldn't understand the girl after all at her age which was probably somewhere about ten from her size she wanted to be a huntress and people of Vale were happy to see hunters this was her first time where hunters weren't welcome where they came.

Unknown black cloak girl:"don't make me laugh" she snarked at us "a Branwen a hunter maybe you accept Grimm to Beacon too" she had mirth in her eyes as she continued "why don't we just start accepting them it's just as well thought out!".

Summer and Tai were confused they didn't know what kind of reputation we had around these parts i was merely sadden I knew that we deserved being compared to Grimm the Branwen clan was notorious for its brutality.

Unknown black cloak girl:"why did you come here anyway it's quiet in these parts of Mistral" her face had a bit of confusion and mistrust on it.

"We're trying to find the guardian spirit" I said wanting to handle this in case Summer were to ask why Branwens=Grimm.

Unknown black cloak girl:"and why do you need to find him?" She asked wonder on her face.

The speed at which she changed emotions was astounding… someone had to teach her how to act and that means to believe the role you're playing after all the eyes never lie… unless the person beliefs the lie himself… or he lies to himself.

"We've been told to simply find and confirm his existence" I said looking for any signs of body language from her, I knew I wouldn't get a read on her face.

Unknown black cloak girl:"he's just a myth nothing but legends and stories people make up, there aren't any elder Grimm in this area the normal ones are being taken down by my father, and civilians never seeing a fight exaggerate his appearance in his black cloak and the Grimms strength" said the girl not a hint of a lie in her voice or body movements.

That was actually a good explanation a normal civilian doesn't see a lot of Grimm so they must've confused the weaker ones with elder types, so it seems our mission is done… finally back to Beacon.

Time skip

After returning to Beacon and reporting to Ozpin that its nothing but exaggerations of saved civilians, Ozpin accepted our explanation, and left us to our own devices.

Meanwhile

John Shadow POV

I'm proud of my daughter she was able to lie to Qrow of all people and he bought it, she wasn't lying after all those reports were exaggerations of me I don't have eight arms after all so she was telling a half truth the best kind of lie, but still I think I forgot about something.

Time skip

It's been years since that visit I was running around the forest in which the town is I've eliminated thirty Grimm already which was worrisome there aren't a lot of negative emotions here so something had to happen I quickly started going towards the town hoping that it wasn't anything big, but then I noticed smoke lots of smoke I quickly transformed into Grievous and ran as fast as I could towards the town my fear rising each second after all tragedies loved to strike twice after a full ten minute sprint I was there and my horror was unimaginable, the once beautiful town lay in ruins the buildings were burned and there were bodies laying everywhere I quickly ran towards the sound of fighting and when I got there my heart stopped there stood Alice under her four bodies of the… the Branwen clans members laying on the floor cut open, I was about to ran and hug her thanking whatever deity existed for her being safe when I noticed something…

A deep red blade was sticking out where the heart was suddenly it was taken out and her body fell to the ground first on her knees and then her face fell and hit the dirt behind her stood her my anger flared there in all her glory stood Raven Branwen a mask on her face, I without thinking took out all of my swords and charged, she was spooked by my sudden appearance and terrifying armor, I took all of my swords in the air and with all my might took them down, Raven tried to block but her blade exploded into pieces from the force of all four of my arms, I wasn't even thinking straight at this moment the only thoughts of mine were "kill kill kill her" and I continued my onslaught slashing and hitting her all over the body.

By now the rest of her tribesmen came seeing their leader in need of help they charged with battle cries.

I changed my target and immediately started slashing and parrying weapons from eight people (Grievous at his max can make twelve attacks a second) I continued slashing breaking right through their Aura like a tank hitting a stone wall, they're bodies flied into the air as their eyes were wide with surprise when I cut them in half at the hip, I cut of one other heads and then I cut of a man arm making him scream I destroyed another's weapon, I took and crushed the neck of another by catching him in my claws embrace and squeezing, this continued and after some time I was standing in an empty street covered in blood from claw to head, bodies lay all around me some the tribesmen and others people I used to know their eyes full of fear and their bodies cut and shot in different places, I looked around and saw that I have killed ten tribesmen in my mad rage, while Raven escaped the pathetic coward, I looked around the only building not burning being the mayors home, I quickly got in the door was open and ran towards his office when I opened it the mayor sat on his chair a bullet wound in the middle of his forehead fear and shock on his face.

I left the building and the town I sat down on the floor not even changing back, I took my phone made a picture of my home for the last few years and sent it to all of my 'agents' my only remaining friends from the city, and something I didn't knew could happen happened… tears real tears left my eyes, and now that I was alone after seeing my child's death I weeped… I cried into the moon sky.

So what do you guys think of this story.

Domy Forest to review.
