Rating: M

Pairing: Pollination (Enabaler Included)

Summary: The war between Light and Darkness raged on for as long as anyone could remember. However the Balance could tip in the favor in either direction due to several factors. One such factor is the Armor of the Lost kingdom.

Hey everyone I'm back! I'm so glad to be back from my business trip and writing again.

Okay so while I was on my Business trip I decided to read this story and I noticed that I made a mistake in my rush to post this before I left. In chapter 1 it said 8 armors on a second part, but it is four armors. So to clarify at any given time there are 4 people with armors.

Oh I didn't say this last time, but this will loosely follow cannon. For now onto the review Responses

Dark Dhampir: No kidding. I know I set the bar high, but I'm just that kinda Guy!

Merendinoemiliano: I don't generally bash, unless I HATE a character. For story plans i'll need Ozpin to (You go deaf as the spoilers roll off the tongue) and that's his whole roll in the story.

Chapter 2: Soul Deep inside

Location: Patch

Place: Western Patch Village

Time: 1230

Most people who lived in The City of Vale never had a reason to leave. Sure the coastal villages were a nice place to visit, as were the well protected towns several miles to the south and East of Vale were alright to visit, but the prospect of them being attacked by Grimm was always a thing. However No one truly visited the Island of Patch unless they were training at Signal as a Primary Huntsmen's school or get their license without attending one of the 'Big 4' as Beacon, Shade, Atlas, and Haven were often called.

As those who never came to Patch wouldn't know Patch was actually a fairly big island. At nearly 38 miles long and 26 miles wide, you could get to most locations on patch in a day. Signal could be found on the eastern coast of Patch, 3 miles from the eastern village which had a populous of about 400 people and was the main farming lands of Patch. The southern part of Patch was more or less one massive dock station where boats, Bullheads, and other transports were. The northern part of the island was mostly dominated by private land owners who wanted nothing to do with others. The Xiao Long/Rose family owned land out here, but more due to the fact that Summer brought the land before Ruby was born. Finally was the western village with housed the most people in patch, about 2000 people. It was also the place where Patch held it's Annual Festival to celebrate being around for almost 40 years. Since the end of Great War.

The booths, grounds, and games were all set up and the Festival was in full swing. Currently walking around the (in)famous Xiao Long/Rose sisters. Yang Xiao Long-Rose and Ruby Rose.

Yang was a budding beauty at the age of 12. Already many boys were already asking her out or would, but the fact that she had a very protective younger sister who was also her best friend. Yang had lilac eyes, tanned skin, Long blonde hair that as pulled into two pigtails on the side of he head with her bangs covering her forehead, Yang wore a pair of Black finger-less gloves, an Orange sleeveless shirt, black shorts, and brown shoes. Yang being the older of the two was a fun loving, outgoing person, with a temper on the flip side that made full grown men terrified of her. Aside from that she wore a pair of training brawler gloves that enhanced her already impressive strength. It didn't hurt that she was learning Taiyang's style o fighting.

Ruby while a lot like yang was vastly different from her sister. Ruby's more round face and moonlit pale skin made her 'cute' and everyone loved Ruby. Even though people loved Ruby, yang wanted to keep her all to herself. While both were outgoing Ruby was much shyer then Yang was and had problems getting along with new people. Sure she had friends, but was always shy. Ruby had short black hair with red tips, silver eyes full of innocence that could full many people if they had never seen Ruby angry, wearing a red sleeveless hoodie that was zipped to the middle, a white sleeveless shirt, a red cape with a hood that went to her knees and a rose crest clasp, a black skirt that went to her knees, and black shoes. Everyone who knew Ruby would call her a kind innocent girl, but if you ever made Ruby's 'bad list' you were in for a rage that Even Yang couldn't escape. Strapped to her side was a training sword.

As the Xiao Long/Rose sisters played games, walked the grounds, and road rides they were just enjoying each others company. For a long time their dad had been on a tear/bender after the death of their mother Summer. This was when Yang was 7 and Ruby was 5. For the longest time Tai had been just a shell of himself. This left Ruby and Yang to raise and look out for each other. In time this turned into a bond that was so strong, almost nothing could tear them apart. As they neared the entrance of the Festival ground Ruby left out a yawn. (1)

Yang smiled as she grabbed and clasped her little sister's hand in her own. "Tired already Rubes?" asked Yang.

Ruby smiled at Yang. "A bit. Today was a lot of fun. I just want to look at one more booth," said Ruby with a pleading look at Yang.

Yang sighed. "You know I can't deny that look. One more booth and then we head to the Pachyderms," said Yang, before kissing Ruby on the forehead.

Ruby smiled at her sister as they looked at the stalls. Many of them they had seen several times. As Ruby was about to give up she looked at a booth that she hadn't really seen before. It was an Older style traveling cart. Honestly it looked like the merchant carts from the 100 Kingdoms Era, that was still in use today. As the Duo approached they noticed that the Cart was manned by a woman. She didn't look old, maybe in her late teens early 20s. It wasn't unusual to find people like this scattered around seeing as a lot of people left home in their late teens. Her hair was short and brown, she was slim with a bust size that was modest and wouldn't draw to much attention past the neck and even so the fact that she had bandages wrapped around her eyes and head, she wore a white dress with red trim and armor.

Ruby was drawn to this cart and slowly walked up to the woman and her cart.

"Hello children. To what do I own the honor of two young and beautiful maidens coming to my cart?" said the woman with a small smile, but with a voice that held something dark that both Yang and Ruby missed.

Ruby was looking at the woman with her held tilted. "How can you see us?" asked Ruby, only to be bopped on the head by Yang.

Yang gave Ruby a small glare of disapproval. "Ruby apologize now!" hissed Yang.

Ruby looked at the woman. "I'm sorry ma'am.

The woman gave a small laugh. "No need to apologize my dear. I was blinded by bandits when I was several years ago. I was taken in as one of them, but escaped some years ago. While I was under their... 'care' I unlocked my Aura and Semblance. My original Semblance was simply future Sight, but out of need my semblance evolved into Clairvoyance, something that the Bandit leader found incredibly useful to her own plans and goals. In a way I now have sight beyond sight and see things beyond the normal scope. I'd rather not bore you two young ladies with all that it entails. Go ahead and look at my wares. In fact as you two are the first customers of the day anything you buy will be 5 Lien," said the woman. (2)

Yang and Ruby's eyes lit up hearing this. They had 50 Lien left of the 300 that their dad gave them for the fair and seeing as how a Pachyderm ride back to the road near their hom was 5 lien and they still needed to get food as their dad was working security, they had about 15 lien to spend. As the girls looked at the wares the woman kept her 'eyes' on Ruby. Without her Sight the woman saw things clearly. Also to clearly. The girl Ruby had an interesting Aura that was lined with a heavy destiny. A destiny that was not suppose to be hers. No it belonged to another. Something else to take note of was the threads of fate their were connected to her. She could see several, but three red ones stood out they were 'glowing' even more some then a few others. One was connected to the Aura of the Blonde girl, while the others she couldn't make out who they belonged to, but they had a mix of white and black attached to them. (3)

"This girl will have an interesting story to tell," thought the woman.

"Hey ruby what do you think?" asked Yang as she picked up a cowboy had and put it on her head. It was a brown affair, with a black band around the top. Nothing to fancy, but on Yang, especially with her pigtails it looked good. (4)

"Wow Yang that hat looks so cool on you," said Ruby in awe of her sister.

"Maybe, but I think I have something that would look 'cool' on you too little one," said the woman as she grabbed a box from under the counter and opened it. It was a necklace on a chain of black and gold, the pendent attacked was a hexagon with a rose that wrapped around a crescent moon. As Ruby stared at the pendent, she couldn't help but be drawn to it for some odd reason. Ruby grabbed the pendent and looked at it. Yang took the pendent from Ruby before wrapping it around Ruby's neck.

"The items you selected suits you both. That's 10 Lien," said the woman as Yang handed over the money.

Yang and ruby turned to leave, but stopped. Ruby turned to the woman.

"Excuse me ma'am," said Ruby.

"Yes Child?" asked the woman.

"We never got your name," said Ruby.

The woman looked at Ruby for a moment, as if looking into her soul, before she chuckled. "It's been a long time since anyone cared to know my name. There are even days i forget what it is. Theresa. Theresa Moon," said the Woman doing a little bow.

"I hope we met again one day Miss Theresa," said Ruby as she and Ruby turned and left.

As Ruby and Yang left her sight Theresa reached up and removed her bandages. This revealed that she had silver eyes, but the pupils of her eyes were white and between her eyes was a jagged line created by the sword of her former Master. "Take as many steps as you must little Rose. They will all return to me. For you and I are the Last of Silver," said Theresa before she and her cart vanished into thin air.

Location: Patch

Place: Xiao Long/ Rose home path

Time: 1320

As Yang and Ruby walked down oh so familiar Road, they allowed themselves to tune the world out. Neither girl was a stranger to the Creatures of Grimm, seeing as both girls were already strong enough to kill several Beowovles by themselves. No Grimm on Patch ever made it out of the 'Early stage' and even then the most powerful Grimm on Patch was an Ursa Major that seemed to avoid people and could for whatever reason avoid even a seasoned huntsmen.

As the duo spoke and laughed neither noticed the shadow creeping along the trees. It's red eyes gazing at them with intent of destruction. It was a Rare Grimm. It was a Shapeless One. A Grimm that not many people ever saw. It wasn't strong by any means, but most people never saw one and didn't really know how to handle them. The Shapeless set it's eyes on Ruby, before flying out the tree at her intent on impaling her with it's makeshift claws. Yang saw the shadow and managed to push Ruby out of the way, but in doing so the shadow took it's claws across the left side of her back and arm! In Yang's haste to protect Ruby she didn't activate her Aura. While both Yang and Ruby could use Aura currently neither of them could activate it on a subconscious level yet and had to actively do so. As Yang hit the ground blood dripping from the claws marks she looked at the terrified look on her sister's face. (5)

Yang gave a pained smile to Ruby. "I'm fine," said Yang as she struggled to get up, but it hurt so damn much! "Just... Go Ruby,"

Ruby shuck her head in the negative as she drew her training sword and ran I front of Yang. The Shapless's eyes narrowed in... amusement. The silver eyed thought she could protect the other human. Charging at the girl it knocked aside her feeble defense. Ruby slid across the ground and rolled along the ground. Ruby quickly got up and grabbed her sword a few scrapes and scratches, but otherwise okay. The Shapeless jumped above her and grabbed her using a 'tail' before swinging her around several times, before throwing her into a tree. Ruby slid to the ground barely moving, but eyes wide. Satisfied with it's work on the Silver eyed girl, it turned it's attention to the yang. Ruby's eyes widened in fear as the Grimm slowly approached Yang. Then Yang looked at Ruby and smiled a Sad smile.

"I love you," said Yang.

Hearing those words from the ONLY constant in her life caused something inside of Ruby to snap. Ruby got to her feet and glared at the Grimm as Reddish-silver Aura exploded from her body. Forcing the grim to look at her

(Que face paced Music)

There's no where to run and Hide

You've awoken the Monster deep inside

Now you won't escape alive

Attacking who I love, your going to pay with your hide!

The Aura began to settle, before it began to wrap around her body, Ruby's modest clothes were replaced by a red-black long sleeve leotard,a form fitting jacket with shoulder guards that didn't hinder her movement with the Rose-moon pattern wrapping around the jacket, a waist belt-cape that went to her knees, thigh high boots, black finger-less gauntlets and finally her weapon. A black crescent Blade that had the handle ΒΌ of the way up and behind the blade allowing for maximum attacking surface. On her face was a half wolf mask with the emblem that was on her forehead. Ruby's eyes were glowing silver as she glared at the shadow. (6)

"Leave my sister ALONE!" yelled Ruby making the shadow back away. It quickly regained it's courage.

Blood red roses fill the scene

I'll tell you now this is no bad dream

You'll reap the consequences of your actions

When I get mean

The Shapeless charged at Ruby, only for Ruby to slid under the attack and cutting off it's tail. The Shapeless roared in pain as it turned to the smirking girl. Charging again it began a relentless barrage of attacks on Ruby wit stabs and slashes intent on killing her. Ruby blocked or dodged the attack with grace and finesse she normally didn't have. Yang looked on in shock as her sister did a FREAKING magical girl transformation before her eyes. Yang shuck her head, Grabbing her scroll she quickly sent a S.O.S out to anyone nearby and hoped they would get there in time.

Red and yellow petals in the sky

for attacking the dragon you forfeit your life

in the end you should have never started this fight

For it will be your last night

Ruby broke the engagement and spun away while folding her Crescent blade in half, while the handle connected to the upper half turning it into a rifle. Ruby went to one knee and took careful aim, before opening up several salvo's upon the Shapeless. Each bullet hit the mark, staggering and wounding the beast. Seeing the beast weakened Ruby took this as her chance and vanished before appearing in a tornado of Roses above the Shapeless. As she she spun around the blade switched from rifle-mode to blade mode as the cutting edge glowed silver.

For her I'll do my best

on this day I lay you to rest

anyone else out there can be my guest

But you Wont... Pass... this... TEST!

"Die," said Ruby as she varnished and appeared next to the Shapeless, only without it's head on it's shoulders.

AS Ruby stood with her back turned she saw a group of four huntsmen next to Yang.

Qrow Bradwen, Her Legendary Drunken Uncle of a Huntsmen. All signs of drunkenness gone as he held his weapon at the ready.

Taiyang Xiao Long, her father, Teacher of Signals unarmed combat class, and a Powerhouse Huntsmen

And two she didn't recognize the other two. One was an Older man with gray hair and a cane, while other was a young woman with Brown hair, green pants, a white tunic, and a brown vest in her hand was a staff with a red dust Orb attached to it. The armor turned to dust, leaving Ruby in her old clothes. (7)

Yang got up and hobbled over to Ruby. As she approached her little sister Ruby fell into Yang's arms unconscious from using so much power in one go. Yang cuddled Ruby in her arms glad her sister was safe and alive.

"That was some impressive power," said Qrow.

"Indeed it was," said Ozpin.

"What are you thinking Master Ozpin?" asked the woman.

"Something that will bring me great sadness," said Ozpin as the plans he was thinking off would put the crimson haired girl in the middle of the coming storm.

And cut. I wrote the entire chapter out on paper while I was away on my Business Trip. While doing that I had thoughts on who the other 3 would be. And unlike the Maidens it's not exclusive to females. I had a few ideas of who the other armor users are, but i'll keep it to myself for now.

Anyway catch you guys in the next chapter.

A/N

1: Did anyone else pick up the tad bit of resentment Yang had during Vol 5. Not for Ruby, but for Tai and him 'leaving' Yang and Ruby to themselves.

2: I don't know if anyone else thinks it, but I feel like Semblances can evole into another level that is beyond what we've seen. Also a cookie for anyone who can guess where Theresa inspiration came from!

3: Pachyderm is the 'Land' version of a Bullhead. It's basically a Very large 6-8 wheeled vehicle that is used for land transportation when a Bullhead isn't needed. If anyone from Rooster Teeth is reading this, give me credit if you use it in the show.

4: Saw a pic f yang in cowboy clothes. I thought it was cool, so I'm adding the Cowboy hat to her clothes.

5: I figure that even once Aura is unlocked it's not something you can engage without training. Even Oscar got knocked on his ass by Ruby.

6: Look up Zen-Aku's blade from Power Rangers Wild Force and you'll get a genreal Idea of what it looks like. I do not own Power rangers.
