RWBY. The Wanderers Vengeance
Chapter 1. Ghosts of the past
[City of Vale, port side bar, 12am]
"Sir , sir , sir" the bartender said while shaking the man to wake him.
"ARRRGH" the man shouted as he bolted upright and reached for the rifle on his back before stopping and looking round.
"Sir I'm about to close up so u can't sleep here any longer, would you like me to call someone to come pick you up?" The bartender said as he toke a wary step back from the drunk hunter.
"No point, there's one to call" the man said as he staggered to stand up and headed out the door of the small port side bar he had found himself in.
Looking to the sky the man saw the shattered moon was in the middle of the clear night Marking it as midnight.
"Might as well find an ally to sleep in" he said as he started to stagger his way towards the middle of the city of Vale.
[City of Vale, allyway 3pm]
"Why did you leave us" a whisper said.
"Why didn't you save us" another said.
"Why , why ,WHY" the voices shouted in unison
"LEAVE ME ALONE" the man shouted as he woke with a start and reaching for his rifle.
Dropping his head back against the wall he was resting on , the man closed his eyes and toke a few deep breaths to calm his racing heart.
With a heavy sigh "I need a drink" the man said as he stood up from his place against the wall of a building.
Stepping clumsily out of the alley he looked to the sky seeing the sun was well last midday " must be a bar I can get a drink at around here" the man though to him self. As he staggered up Vales main road looking for a bar.
[City of Vale,main street,9pm]
The sun was starting to set and the Wander had yet to find a bar and he was starting to sober up, he rounded a corner onto a compleatly empty street besides a man with orange hair and a white suit with a bowler hat and cane, on other side of him was 2 thugs dressed in all black with a red tie.
"Just a wild guess but I think these guys ain't exsactly friendly" the wander though as he watched the 5 men walk into a late night dust shop, only to have the 4 thugs crash through the shop window a minute later followed by a little girl.
The girl was dressed in a black combat skirt with a black corset on and a long sleeved black top, she weilded a large scythe like weapon and from the ease of how she handled the weapon she had been using it for years.
"I guess if you want something done right you need to do it your self"the orange haired man said as he raised his cane at the girl.
There was a flash of pure black suddenly the cloaked man was infront of the man with the cane just in time to knock his can to the side a large projectile shot out of it and collided with the ground beside man knocking him to the side from the blast, with a roll he was back in his feet but the orange haired main was gone.
"Hahahaha I'd love to stay and chat but Iv got a plane to catch" the orange haired man laughed from the roof top of a near by building as the sound of a bullhead could be heard coming.
Is a flurry of petals the little girl followed after him landing on the roof a few seconds after he had reached the top, with a sigh the cloaked man followed with a flash which put him on the roof infront of the girl as the orange haired man jumped into a bullhead.
Out of no where a blonde haired woman with a purple Cape and a pencil skirt walked up from behind them with a riding crow in hand, with a flick of her wrist a blast of ice shot towards the bullhead before another female appeared in the cabin of the bullhead, this one wore black high heels and a tight fitting red dress, pointing her hand outwards a fire ball shot towards them.
The blonde haird woman created a force field infront of the whole the cloaked man grabbed the girl and spun around to protect her from the blast, looking up she could see large fanged teeth and golden eyes but the rest was covered by the hood of his cloak.
Once the blast was gone he spun back round and pulled the rifle off his back, 6 shots speed towards the bullhead along with a a spear made of rubble, 3 of the shots cracked the window, 2 flew through the open space of the cabin doing nothing and the last his the other woman in the shoulder making her duck inside before the bullhead turned and climbed into the sky.
"Now who are your two and what were you doing here this late at night" the blonde haired woman said to the little girl who was looking at her with a look of glee in her eye, and the man who had his hood up and was turned away from her.
"Well, I'm just a ghost passing through, Glynda." The man said, with his rifle in one hand at his side he used his other hand to pull down his hood to reveal two pure black wolf ears sticking out atop his head, his hair was jet black with patches of mud from sleeping rough for years, he turned to face Glynda and a wicked smile spread across his lips made even more wicked by his fanged teeth slipping out.
Glynds froze in place and her eyes widened as if she had just seen a ghost.
"Jager? Jager Blackclaw? It can't be, you died 20 years ago," shock and disbelief clear in her voice and face.
He toke a step closer towards Glynda but it was the girl that talked.
"Um I'm Ruby, Ruby Rose, I was looking to get some more dust and I lost track of time then those guys attacked and then he appeared out of no where in a flash of black and then you showed up and the rest your know" Ruby said all in one breath with hand gestures to match what she was saying.
Ruby's verbal bombard was enough to jbick Glynda from her earlier shock.
"What Evers going on we can talk about it at the station, someone there wants to talk you miss rose, and there we can find out if you really are Jager Blackclaw or not,"Glynda commanded with threat in her voice at the end as she locked eyes with Jager.
"Then how about I show you I really am Jager" and with that said he stepped forward and placed a hand on both Glynda and Ruby's shoulder and in a flash of pure darkness the trio were standing outside the police station.
"Oh...my...GOD, that was so awesome is that your semblance" Ruby squealed as she stared at Jager with massive eyes.
"Yes it is Jagers semblance, it's called dark warp and it allows him and anyone hes touch to instantly warp to anywhere he can see, or anywhere hes been before but that uses significant amounts of aura," Glynda said almost in disbelief at who she was looking at.
With just a greater with his hands Jager walked inside the station with Ruby following close behind in complete awe and Glynda with a look like this is all still plastered on her face.
As soon as they stepped through the doors Glyndas face changed back to the normal commanding face she always wears.
"Take the stairs to your left and through the first door on your right please" she commanded.
Doing as instructed they entered to find a tall man in a green suit with white hair and a cane with his back to them.
"Arr Glynda yours back good, did you find..." the man froze midsentence as he turned around and locked eyes with Jager.
"What's the matter Ozzy, seen a ghost" Jager said with a sharp edge to his voice.
"Jager? But your ment to be"
"Dead?, na just captured, tortured and escaped,but that's a story for another day" Jager finished still the edge in his voice remained as he toke a seat at the table in front of him and rested his legs on the table.
"Um... yes probably for the best, now where was I, arr yes, miss rose where did you learn to use one of the most dangerous weapons a hunter can get like that, iv only meet 9ne other, a dust old crow," Ozpin said as he toke a seat on the opposite side to Jager and now Ruby who also joined them.
"Oh that's my uncle Qrow, he taught me everything I know while at Signal," Ruby replied happily.
"And do you know who I am," Ozpin asked
"Your professor Ozpin, headmaster of Beacon Academy, the most prestigious Huntsman Academy around" Ruby smiled.
"Well miss Rose you do Seam to know a lot about me and my school,is that Grey eyes I see" Ozpin spoke smoothly.
"Well if i want to join Beacon I need to know everything I can, yer they are, dad says there like my mums" Ruby said with just a hint of sadness at the end.
"Well why don't you attend?" Ozpin said casually.
"But Iv still got 2 years left at Signal!" Ruby exclaimed.
"Well I'm sure miss Goodwitch here can work it out with Signal to allow you to be moved up a few years, so would you like to attend Beacon" Ozpin asked.
"more then anything else in the world" Ruby said, basicly vibrating from excitement.
"I'll take that as a yes, Glynda here well take you home shortly but first could you please wait downstairs, I would like to talk to mister Blackclaw here alone," Ozpin asked smoothly.
"Oh right yer sure," Ruby said and in a burst of petals, she was gone.
As Glynda closed the door with a flick of the wrist Ozpin turned his attention to The large black-eared hunter that had been resting in the other chair with his eyes closed, with a twitch of his ears his eyes shot open startling both Ozpin and Glynda.
"So Ozpin what did you want to talk about, maybe how you left me for dead like my team," Jager spat clear disdain in his voice.
It was Glynda who spoke.
" Jager, we though you were dead, when you and your team didn't arrive at the meet-up location, My team and I personally went back along the route looking for you, it was when we sore the smoke we knew something had gone wrong," there was a pause as if saying the words was causing her pain.
"When we arrived we found the flipped truck and your three team members dead , your hunter tags were just outside the truck laying next to your severed arm, we though you had died off bloodloss somewhere in the woods," Glynda finished, emotion filling her voice at the end, quickly she turned around and toke a deep breath to steady herself before turning back.
"To elaborate on what Glynda said, we searched the woods for days looking for traces of you, but ultimately we couldn't find anything as to what actually happened to you, so to the public you received a hero's burial, all of you, only myself, Glynda and Qrow actually know the truth and I would very much like to know what happened," Ozpin asked leaning forward.
"All I well tell you is that I was held a prisoner for 2 years till I managed to build up enough energy to use my dark warp to get out," Jager replied coldly as he went to stand up.
"Fair enough, just two more things before you go, first who held you prisoner and lastly would you be welling to work at Beacon, I could use someone like you around," Ozpin said as he too stood up.
"I was Salem's prisoner, and why would I come work at Beacon?" Jager said as he turned on Ozpin and stood very close.
"You want revenge I assume and I need her gone, I have the resources and facilities, while you obviously have the skillset to get the job done, so I say we work with each other to beat her," Ozpin answered holding his ground.
There were a tense few seconds while Jager just stared at him judging his intentions.
"On two conditions, number one, no secrets or half-truths, you tell me everything, and two we do this my way," Jager finally said, his cold gaze locked on Ozpin.
"Done, now I do believe young miss rose is waiting downstairs for us to return, let's not keep her waiting any longer," Ozpin said like he just agreed to takeaways not agreeing to take out the most dangerous individual on the remnant.
