Chapter 2: The Hunters and Huntresses
Somewhere outside the city of Vale was a base divided in five buildings forming a pentagon shape, two were residential buildings on the left side while the other two were training facilities on the right side. In the front of it all was a very tall office building with the logo Beacon on top of its front doors. The base was surrounded by fences and barb wires to keep away enemies. Inside one of the training facility one high ranking hunter with burnt orange combed hair and indigo eyes discovers that someone new was added into the association and decides to test his skills. Anyone who was there got to watch the fight occur
"C'mon Jauney boy! Is this all you got!" the high ranking hunter said as he swings his mace towards the new recruit making him lift up his shield but was easily sent crashing into the ground.
The new hunter quickly got and took a stance.
"My name is Jaune Arc! Get it right asshole!" Jaune yelled.
Jaune ran towards the hunter swing his sword at him but was easily blocked, at the two weapons clash together Jaune struggles to push the hunter back as his strength was inferior to of his opponent.
"That's no way to talk to your superior!" the hunter slides down his mace to get Jaune's sword hook by the head of the weapon then smashes Jaune's nose with the grip.
The hunter then swings his mace with one arm bashing it against Jaune's chest plate, Jaune fell backwards and lands on the ground. The hunter plants his foot on top of Jaune's dented chest plate and points his weapon at him
"As your higher ranking official you will advise me as sir!"
"And as your higher ranking official I demand to know what is going on here?!" A female voice yelled which made everyone turn their heads.
She had long lovely red hair tied in a pony tail that ended at her waist with a bronze headpiece, and vivid green eyes. She was wearing a black leather suit but had a piece of light brown armor on her chess that was split vertically, a brown belt wrapped around her waist that had a pouch on one side and a bronze plate on the other.
Every step she made with her brown boots no one's eyes left her, Jaune's gaze was far more intense fro he had never seen such beauty.
"Cardin just what are you doing now?" she asked.
"Teaching the new recruit some manners, this fellow here had the nerve to call me an asshole." Cardin replied.
"He's not wrong, you are one." Cardin sucks his teeth at her remark and rolls his eyes.
"Listen Pyrrha..."
"No you listen to me! This is no way to treat a newcomer or hunter and huntresses. We can't have more people leaving because of you!" Pyrrha said getting closer to Cardin pointing her finger at him.
"And if I was you... I'd leave now before things get messy." Cardin glares at Pyrrha then down at Jaune.
He then lifts his mace up and rests his shoulder and before he left, he pushes his foot down on Jaune causing the hunter to grunt in pain. A hand came into Jaune's view and he took it, he was then lifted up to his feet to see Pyrrha smiling at him.
"So... You're the new blood?" She asked.
"T-t-the what?"
"It's something we call the recruits due to Grimm loving to eat humans."
"O-oh yeah...I'm the new guy." Jaune gave a nervous chuckle.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Jaune, Jaune Arc." He said lifting his hand up, Pyrrha smiles and gladly accepts his hand and shook it.
"My name is..." Just as she was about to say her name.
"NORA!"
An orange hair girl with a black suit with pink outlines jump on top of Pyrrha's back wrapping her arms around her back.
"Your name is Nora?" Jaune asked.
"No you silly my name is Nora, she's Pyrrha!" The orange hair girl said.
"Nora please get off of her." A voice said. A male came from behind two girls wearing a dark green buttoned tailcoat but in the inside he had an armor vest.
"Ok Ren!" Nora then jumps off of Pyrrha's back who gave Ren a silent thank you.
"So you're the new kid?" Ren asked.
"Y-yes Jaune Arc at you service."
"Lie Ren, nice to meet you. So do you know what assign group you're in?"
"U-uh yes, I'm in group 475." The other three look at each other when he said that then back at him.
"Well, lucky for you, you just met your team." Pyrrha said.
"...WHAT?"
Grimm World
It was getter darker in the grim as the sun was setting and the night was creeping, somewhere within a Grimm world lays a giant castle in a forest, its towers reach high in the sky while sunset shines on it dark stone. Inside the castle was a young man in the entree hall, the entree has was very long having pillars hold up the upper levels of the castle. Torches were lit but didn't seem to brighten the place; the young man had a green trench coat on, white button shirt and brown pants sporting a pair of black shoes. He has a hunchback while limps around sweeping the floor, as he was sweeping the floor with a broom his senses started to tingle and he look at one of the pillars.
"How many times must I tell you Miss Belladonna, you can't sneak up on me." He said getting a wave of curse words.
Blake walks out from behind the pillar with a book in her hand.
"How do you always know where I am Igor?" Blake asked.
"I've spend most of my time here with master, and I end up learning a few things from him." Igor said receiving a soft smile from Blake.
"Oh have you seen Lord Angelus?"
"Yes I have Blake; he is in his study room. Apparently the council wants him to review some of the reports from the White Fang."
"Really now?"
"Yes Yes, apparently there's has been more murders of Grimm and Faunus. The council men are growing angry, master Angelus plan is working but not fast enough to satisfy them." Igor said.
A chimes of a bell disrupted the silence of the hallway making Igor limp his way towards the door, as he opens the giant door reveal two figures dress in armor consisting on a chest plate, pauldrons, gauntlets and greaves. One figure was a humanoid lizard while the other one a werewolf but still in its human form.
"Excuse us but we must speak with Lord Angelus." The werewolf said.
"Why? What is going on?" Igor asked.
"The White Fang was under attack by hunters!"
"Then come in quick!"
Igor let the two and quickly lead them to Angelus study room, as they reach the door Igor opens it. The room was very large with many books in bookcases, some chairs and sofas in the middle of the room and a fireplace on the side of the room. Angelus was sitting by a desk with many files and papers on it while smoking a pipe giving the room a vanilla scent, Angelus was kind of startle by Igor slamming the door open but he knew it must mean an emergency.
"Igor is there something wrong?" Angelus asked taking the pipe from his mouth.
"Yes my master, two Grimms from the council bring terrible news." Igor stepped aside letting the two Grimm enter the room.
"Excuse our intrusion Lord Angelus, but we bring important news from the council, the White Fang has been attacked." The humanoid lizard Grimm said.
Angelus put the pipe down onto his desk and got up from his chair, his grabs his cloak that was hanging from the chair and wraps it around his neck, and he picked up one of his brown cloth from the desk and started to cover his forearm. As he was doing so he notices Blake next to Igor.
"Alright you two are coming with me, since we are the closest ones to the gate we'll investigate it. Blake you're coming to." Angelus said.
"Yes my lord!" getting a synchronize response for the three.
"Igor stay here and watch the castle and tell Velvet we are gone when she comes back in case she panics again."
"Yes my master."
As Angelus finishes wrapping the brown cloths around his forearm and his black gloves, he put on his hood and lifted the scarf over his mouth.
"Alright let's move."
Shortly after the four left the castle they have arrive at a mountain, as they move around some rock they reach two doors with symbols on it written in blood. Angelus opens the door going inside of a large open space; it was dark but a light shine brightly enough for them to be able to know their way. Water drip down from rocks as the four walked fast, as they reach the light, it was a giant golden gate and a guard in front of it. He saw the four coming and quickly drew his sword; he had a helmet on shielding his face.
"Halt none shall pass here!" The guard spoke.
"It is I Lord Angelus Emidius, we need you to the gate to open."
"L-lord Angelus! R-right away my Lord!"
The guard turns around and walked towards the gate, on the gate was a hole. The guard lifts his sword up and puts it in the hole and twists it making a loud unlocking sound, he then takes his sword out and the gate started to open. The guard moves aside letting the four walk through the gate, once they did the gate close behind them leaving them in nothing but darkness. However that did not stop them from walking as shortly after and bright light appear before them and they walked through it, they ended up outside another gate but underground. The four quickly walked up some rocks that led them to the outside, as they got breeze of cool wind brush against their skin they were in the human world. It was night time which mean hunter and huntresses were out. However it was a full moon making the werewolf transform into his real state.
"We need to move fast before any hunters can reach us." Angelus said as he started to walk fast.
"Wait how do the humans know we are here?" The humanoid lizard asked.
"The humans build a machine allow them to know were any Grimm or Faunus are, it's some sort of imaging science device showing our blood type and class of Grimm." Blake answered following right behind Angelus.
"What! That's impossible!" The Werewolf Grimm said.
"Well my friend, it became possible for the humans." Angelus said.
"Now we must hurry!"
