Q&A Time
Perseus Ruby Sendou: Thank You :). I hope you'll enjoy the rest.
Lightfighter I: Oh, wow. Thank you so much. I'm so glad that I was able to exceed your expectations. Yeah, it's really not the best title in the world. I'm not that creative about that kind of stuff. However, I did made a list of titles to choose from...which you've probably seen already lol. I have to say that I can't promise that the next chapters would better than the previous one, not because that I'm starting to get a little lazy but because that I can't tell if I am doing good myself. It has always been a problem that if I actively try to exceed someone's expectations, I'll go overboard and what I write turns to crap. I really do appreciate criticism and it helps me a bunch. So, I'll at least promise that I won't make this boring.
Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach and RWBY. They belong to Tite Kubo and Monty Oum (RIP) respectively.
"What is the meaning of one's existence? To be a light of hope for those left in the dark? Or to be a tool on the road to ruin? Follow your heart and the path will be clear."
The click of hard-soled boots echo off the stone walls of an abandoned cathedral as Uryuu Ishida walks through the debris. Cracked walls, broken pillars, collapsed balconies, and all but one stained glass window is shattered. Uryuu huffs out white puffs of hot air into his freezing hands. He stops at the frozen pond, reflecting the shattered moon, at the cathedral's altar. He looks up at the only glass-stained window in pristine condition that takes the entirety of back of the cathedral. There are eight figures, seven of the surrounding the slightly bigger one. Behind the bigger figure was a tree. It was a beautiful sight. The peaceful atmosphere was then interrupted. Something, or someone, is behind him. This Aura Signature was no one Uryuu recognized and whoever this person is about to strike.
In swift movements, Uryuu grabs his weapon and uses it as shield to protect himself from a katana blade. He pushes the katana's wielder back. Now in full view, Uryuu sees that it is a woman. The woman has long brown hair and was wearing black armor. Her face is concealed by a black mask. Uryuu narrowed his eyes. He's not keen on fighting women if he had a choice, but right now, this woman is obviously a threat. He should at least drive her away. He positioned his longbow as a string of light blue Aura manifested at different ends of the bow. He takes an arrow out of his quiver and readies for a fight.
The woman attacked first, slashing out her sword at the archer. In light speed, courtesy of his Semblance, Uryuu dodges the attacks. As he does so, he shoots his arrows at the woman. Most of the arrows failed to hit her as she would slice the arrows, but one or two would have finally find themselves in her flesh. One manages to get in her shoulder while another got her thigh. Uryuu, standing on a broken pillar, stopped his attacks to see what the woman would do next. With no reaction, the woman pulls out the arrows and resumes her onslaught. Uryuu moves to get an arrow but the swordswoman was faster and attacks Uryuu head-on as he struggles to block each hit.
Seeing that there is no way out of this, Uryuu's Bogen Sperling changed into a staff. After the change he proceeds to block and attack with moves of a kung fu master. With a strike of his palm, he pushes the woman back several feet, high heels screeching at the friction. The woman attacks again with more ferocity, flames and heat coming from the sword and the woman's armor. Is it Dust or a Semblance? Uryuu had no time to think or react as the masked woman charged at him again. He moves to block what ever kind of attack she planned.
The woman stopped a mere two feet away as she sends an air slash at the male flinging him into the air by the force of the swipe. Unable to steady himself, he was at the woman's mercy as Uryuu was knocked back down and into the frigid water of the altar. The sudden intense cold stunned Uryuu, unable to move. Why? Why is this woman doing this? Does she hate the Quincy? His family? Him? He has no idea who she is and yet she had the audacity to attack him unprovoked. He squinted his eyes opened, watching as the shattered moon shrink further away as he went deeper. It can't end this, not after everything that has happened. Not after everything he went through. He thinks of his teammates, his friends, and his family. He can't lose. He WON'T lose. Uryuu gritted his teeth has air escaped.
He will keep fighting.
In a burst of light, Uryuu leaps from the cold water and gives the woman a hard kick to her midsection. The woman managed her balance just in time to see Uryuu readying his long bow. Before she could act, Uryuu released an light blue Aura Arrow glowing white at her leg, a bloom of ice encasing the limb in place. She looks back at the Quincy archer to see him forming another Aura Arrow. She can see the Water and Wind Dust embedded in his glove merging with the arrow. Her train of thought was interrupted when Uryuu releases the arrow. She instinctively moves her sword hand to block it, causing her arm, hand, and sword to now be encased in ice. Uryuu leaps into the air above the swordswoman, preparing for another attack. This time, the bowstring turning light as he forms a Light Arrow and the white of his clothing give off feathers of light. He releases the light arrow, but instead of a single one, a volley was released. Not wanting to lose this battle, the woman releases a powerful Aura Pressure to deter/shatter the arrows and breaks the ice prison. The Pressure was enough to knock Uryuu back and land on the ground on to one knee.
Both opponents are now on their knees, gasping for breath and their Auras flickering. Uryuu gathers up some strength to get back up to his feet and aims his last arrow to the prone woman. "Who are you?" He questioned adamantly. "Why are you here and why did you attack me?" The woman said nothing, silently staring at the young male through her black mask. Her gaze then changed to the stain-glass window behind Uryuu. Looking back at the young Quincy, she leaps up to a hole in the ceiling. "Wait!" Uryuu demanded, firing the arrow. Unfortunately, the woman was still too fast and managed to dodge the arrow. It arrow pierces a section of the ceiling on the verge of collapse and caused some debris to fall. Uryuu evaded the stones in time and looks for the woman again, but it was too late.
The woman was gone.
Uryuu emerges from the building and out into the icy weather, his hood over his head and his bow on his back. He shivers slightly from the cold as he pushes up his glasses. Many thoughts went through his head. Who was that woman? Why was she here? Why did she attack him out of the blue? What was her purpose? He looks up towards the cathedral, the moon in it's slightly-shattered phase just above it. He pushes up his glasses, which miraculously remained intact (let alone stayed in place), and with a small huff through his nose and closing his eyes, Uryuu walks off.
Just as Uryuu leaves, a single white feather falls to ground. A lone snowflake lands on the feather's quill.
Elsewhere...
"Alright..." Weiss thought to herself as she adjusted her ponytail. "A little more to the right annnnd done." Putting her hands down, she concentrates at the image in the mirror. It still fills weird to have the ponytail the side of her head rather than the middle, but somehow, this look feels more...natural. She smiles at what she is seeing, until she sees her left eye. Where her scar is...Using her index and middle finger, she traces the permanent marking.
Her mother was livid after her fight with the Armored Knight a few weeks ago. She remembered being at the Atlesian Medical Center having her eye treated, a thick gauze over the injury as she hears her parents argue at each other. How could you have done this to your own daughter?! Her mother shouted. I wanted to see if she can handle it, like a good father would! Her father shouted back. The argument quickly escalated to a heated, verbal fight. Weiss was thankful of the doctor who treated her wound. She went as far as threatening to contact the director of the hospital in order to stop the fighting. She was grateful, it was giving her a headache. As a Huntress-in-training, Weiss was lucky that the injury didn't damage her eye but unfortunately, it didn't stop it from becoming a permanent scar.
Weiss looks down from the mirrored image of herself and her eyes lay upon the only framed photo on her vanity. It was a picture, from maybe eight or nine years ago when she attended Atlas Elite Elementary, of young Weiss and someone she had considered her only friend in the whole world. She hopes to see them again, maybe at Beacon. They can be friends again, like before...everything that had happened.
Her thought were interrupted by a chime of the clock, indicating it is noon. She has some practicing to do before the charity concert tonight. It is to be Weiss' goodbye before heading off to Atlas and become a Huntress and make the world a better place in the Schnee name...or so her father said. Little did he know, she was planning on going to Beacon instead of Atlas. She places the frame back on the vanity and heads out of her room.
"Hello, sister." her brother, Whitley, greeted as soon as she exited her private sanctuary with his usual smug smile.
"Hello, Whitley." Weiss greeted, trying to keep back her disdain.
"Are you on your way to practice for the charity?" He asked, his smile still apparent.
"Yes, I am. So, if you'll excuse me." With that, Weiss trots down the hall and away from her brother, who merely smirks at her.
As she walked through the mansion towards practice, she finds her mother, Willow, in the garden with a bottle of wine. Judging from the rumpled clothes, disheveled hair, glazed eyes, and red cheeks, she's almost done with that bottle and can see another bottle at the table with her. At this point, Weiss isn't sure of what to do. She has to get to practice pronto before her father could get anymore angry, but she doesn't want to leave her mother in this state.
"Do not fret, Mrs. Schnee. I'll handle this." Klein, her favourite butler, assured as he made his way to the drunkard woman. Weiss watches silently as Klein gently arouse Willow out of her stupor and begins to guide her out of the garden and to someplace else for her to rest properly. Weiss can't help but remember the times her mother would gladly take her to piano classes, how she would congratulate her when she got good grades at school (even treated her with her favorite cake), how she smiled just by looking at her. But now...
Weiss stares at Klein and her mother for a while before heading down the hall again to get to practice. She comes across a portrait of her and her family. No one was happy in the portrait, except for Jacques and Whitley. Weiss couldn't help but notice how different her brother's smile was in the portrait compare to Whitley's now smug grin. This portrait was taken nearly seven years ago, back when Whitley was so innocent of Jacques influence. But now, she can see that Whitley is slowly, but surely, turning into their father.
She turns away from the portrait, only to see a mirror on the wall. As if in a trance, she walked slowly to the reflected version of herself. She places a hand on the glass, the reflection doing the same. Weiss remained that way for awhile, as if waiting for her reflection to say something. Is what she doing is right? Can she do this? Would Whitley do better for the company than she can ever do? Maybe... Weiss shook her head of those thoughts and walks away from the mirror. Whitley isn't the heir to the Schnee Dust Company. Weiss is.
And she will make things right.

Now, some notes about Uryuu:
... He is 19 years old
… He is a 3rd year student at Beacon Academy.
... He is the student council president
... His emblem is closely resembles his first Quincy Cross
... His weapon is based on his bow in the live action movie (yes), it's name is Bogen Sperling
…... It can also turn into a staff
... His Semblance is Light Manipulation
... I'd imagine Uryuu's close combat fighting style would be reminiscent of Shaolin Kung Fu
…... I thought of this due to Uryuu's open hand style of fighting
... He has two older brothers
... He initially resides in Vale, specifically Patch
... The rest of the Ishida Family lives in a city just outside of Atlas
... His 'inspiration' is Baldr from Norse Mythology
... In RWBY, the Quincy is an intelligent race on Remnant, like humans and Faunus
…... The Quincy are elven beings like the elves of Tolkien's works; they're not magical though. It'll be explained in the story.
... I feel like some people might not like these changes, but this is my story and I'll do it how I want to. If anyone doesn't like it, I'm sorry.
Now a bit of description for his combat attire:
Appearance: He doesn't look that much different compared to his Fullbring Arc look except his hair has grown out to his shoulders and gradients from black to blue (like Ruby's hair) and his glasses have rounded rectangular frames and a black half-rim. He is very slender and thin and delicate looking, which makes him look like a weakling (which he isn't). On his left upper arm is a tattoo of a cross with wings in white ink. With everything he wears, he has his pentacle necklace coiled around his right wrist. Since the Quincy are elven beings in RWBY, his ears are slightly pointed.
Combat Attire: His combat attire looks similar to his Soul Society Arc clothes, a long white cheonagsm (his emblem is located in the front in dark blue), dark blue leggings, white boots, and a dark blue belt to carry his quiver. Oop, and his mantle, can't forget about that. He also wears a glove that resembles the Sanrei Glove and it's the source of his Dust.
Uniform (Cold Weather): He wears everything of the uniform. Added to it is the armband members of the student council wear.
Uniform (Hot Weather): He doesn't wear the blazer. He wears a blue vest appropriate for the warm weather, a short-sleeved white dress shirt and the tie. He still wears the student council armband.
Casual (Cold Weather): A blue-colored jean jacket over a long-sleeve black turtleneck with thumb holes tucked in white skinny jeans, a black belt, and dark fold-over boots with blue/black plaid insides.
Casual (Hot Weather): He wears a loose-fitting white long cardigan over a blue shirt, tan trousers that are rolled up to his mid-calf, and black slip-on converse. Around his neck are two necklaces, one with a sun pendant and the other a cross.
Pajamas: A dark blue nightshirt and black pants
Now for Uryuu's weapon:
Bogen Sperling is categorized as a Modernized Quincian Longbow Staff (MQLS). I intended the name to be the German version for Kojaku.
Bogen Sperling: Like I said, the looks nearly like the one in the upcoming live action movie. One exceptions are that the handle is blue. It's second form is a bostaff that he uses for close-quarters combat. I must also make a note that the glove on his right hand doesn't have the prongs from the Sanrei Glove, but instead has the four basic Dust in small crystal form placed in where prongs would be.
Now, for his Semblance:
Light Manipulation: You have no idea how hard it was to find a Semblance for this guy. I eventually decided on Light Manipulation because of his Licht von Prinz title in the last arc. When he uses it offensively, the light is normally manifested in liquid form, which he can manipulate to shape and make arrows of light. He can also use it to make a platform (that variation of Hirenkyaku), small balls of light for dark places, and force-fields. And, of course, he can move at the speed of light. There is another thing he can do, but I'll show it off later.
Now, let's do the Ice Queen. Again, exceptions are her combat attire, pajamas, weapon, and Semblance:
Uniform (Cold): She wears everything of the uniform.
Uniform (Hot): She wears everything of the uniform but the blazer.
Casual (Cold): She wears a sailor dress. A light blue long sleeve middy blouse, the collar and cuffs a white color, a blue ribbon tied at the collar, a white sash around her waist, and a light blue skirt. Underneath the blouse, she wears a long-sleeve blue turtleneck and blue pantyhose and white ankle boots. When she's out and about, she carries a white, brand name expensive purse (this also goes with the next one).
Casual (Hot): A blue tank top underneath a see-through short-sleeved blouse that makes it look like a lighter shade, light blue jean shorts, and white ankle-length gladiator sandals with an inch heel. She wears some bracelets on her wrist and a white watch.
