Disclaimer: I don't own either RWBY or One Punch Man.
AN: I got a lot more feedback than I thought I would for the first chapter which is great. Though someone did ask if Sanguine was a self insert to which the answer is no. I am far too dark of a person in humor alone to be in a teen rated fic, but I can do sarcastic quips pretty well. So the most Sanguine would be like me is in sarcastic remarks. Other than that he's similar to Saitama while throwing in variation to not make him a complete clone.
As the airships touched down at Beacon, Sanguine watched the blond vomiting guy run off to find a garbage can. Why he didn't use the ones on the ship before hand was lost on the red head. Getting poked in the back by Ruby, he walked with his sisters towards the front of their new school.
Apparently the architects in charge of building it really wanted to make a castle instead as the school looked less like a place of learning and more of a place where some crazy wizard would live. The walkway the stood on lead to a large door surrounded with white walls and stain glass windows. A giant tower loomed in the center of the grounds, mounted on was a clock and several green pillars.
"View from Vale has nothing on this." Yang commented as she crossed her arms. Ruby looked around at the other students, or more specifically, their weapons. Sanguine and Yang watched as their sister enter her weapon obsession mode and began frantically pointing out every weapon she saw.
"That kid's got a collapsible staff! Ohh, she's got a fire sword! Ow, ow, ow." Ruby stared saying as Yang pulled her away from the people by her hood.
"Easy there little sister. They're just weapons." Yang attempted to calm down Ruby. As Yang said that weapons were indeed just weapons, Sanguine sighed and pinched his nose. He figured Yang would have learned by now.
"Just weapons! They are an extension of our souls, they're part of us! Oh they're so cool!" Ruby gushed.
"I don't use a weapon. Am I not cool?" Sanguine teased Ruby with his normal bored tone. Ruby slumped over at her twin's comment and looked at him.
"You don't count. Besides you do have Thorns Prick still. So while you may not use it anymore, WHICH IS TOTALLY LAME, you do still have a weapon." Ruby diplomatically answered.
Sanguine looked at the back of his waist to where his weapon was sitting. Last time he had used it was against Pyrrha in their last duel against each other. After that….well the need more it was gone.
"Why can't you swoon over your own weapon? Aren't you happy with it?" Yang asked Ruby getting back to the girls obsession. Ruby opened up Crescent Rose, making Sanguine back away to not get hit by the thing. He was more worried about him breaking it, than it breaking then him. Yang had lost one of her practice set of guntlets while they were sparring when she punched him and was mad at him. Ruby losing her scythe would be…..unpleasant to say the least.
"Of course I'm happy with Crescent Rose. I just really like seeing new ones. It's like meeting new people, but better." Ruby mumbled the last bit to herself. Between Ruby and Sanguine they had a total of 16 friends, and that was including family.
"Yeah meeting people is kinda lame. Especially when they feel the need to tell you their life story. If you can't sum up your introduction in 20 words or less, then I'm most likely ignoring you." Sanguine added his two cents. Yang looked back and forth between her younger siblings and pulled their hoods over their heads.
"You guys, come on. Why don't you go try and make freinds of your own?" She suggested. Neither twin looked enticed by the offer.
"But why would I need friends when I have you and Sanguine?" Ruby asked pulling down her hood.
"Well, actually my friends are here nowgottacatchupnotimetotalkseeyalaterbye." Yang quickly spewed off before she vanished with a crowd of people towards the school. The speed of the group caused Ruby to start spinning, while Sanguine doubted Yang's friends would ever actually pop up again as his cape blew.
"Wait where are you going? Aren't we supposed to go to our dorms? Where are are dorms? Do we have dorms? Ugh, I don't know what I'm doing." Ruby asked dizzily as she slowed down her spin only to fall back. She would have landed on some girls luggage cart but her brother caught her before she hit the ground.
However, the person moving the car seemed to be blind, or at the very least not know red means stop, as she drove the cart into Sanguine's back. He turned his head to see a girl dressed in all white, with a battle skirt like Ruby's and her white hair up in an off center ponytail. The girls blue eyes narrowed at the two as her luggage fell off.
"What are you doing!?" She yelled at the two.
"Getting hit by a car pushed by a blind girl." Sanguine muttered back. Ruby got out of his arms and looked at the white clad girl. Seeing her luggage on the ground Ruby picked up the closest one and handed it to her.
"Blind! I'm not the one standing in the middle of the walkway! And give me that!" The girl yelled snatching the case from Ruby.
"...You do see that there is easily 20 more feet of room in either direction right?" Sanguine pointed out how there was no reason she couldn't have gone around them. And people called him lazy.
"Do you know what this is?" The girl held the case towards the two.
"Uhhh…"
"A case."
"This is Dust! Mined and purified from the Schnee Quarry." The Blind Ice Pop as Sanguine was now referring to her as informed them, ignoring his response.
"Uhhh…" Ruby still at a loss for words let out.
"What are you brain dead? Dust, fire, water, lightning, energy! Are you even listening to me? Is any of this sinking in? What do you have to say for yourself?" The Ice Pop said as she shook the can of Dust causing some to slip out and make Ruby sneeze.
Seeing the ensuing fireball about to hit the Blind Ice Pop SAnguine acted quickly and moved her out of the way, while taking the brunt of the fire. Aside from getting some ash and cinder on his clothes, he was fine.
"Thanks sis." He deadpanned. Ruby poked her fingers together as she looked sheepish.
"Hehe, sorry." Ice Pop snapped back after realizing she had been moved out of the way proceeded to yell at Ruby.
"What are you doing you dolt!? Aren't you a little young to be attending Beacon? This isn't an ordinary combat school, it's not just sparring and practising now, we're here to fight monsters so watch where you're going. And that goes for you as well!" She yelled at the two siblings.
"...Is every word out of your mouth a annoying nag or is this just that time of the month thing?" Sanguine asked the now red faced Ice Pop. Ruby sighed at her brothers bluntness but had to agree with him.
"Hey I said I was sorry princess." Ruby shot back at the girl.
"Its heiress actually." A new voice joined in. A black haired girl with a black bow on her head dressed in a black buttoned vest with a white undershirt and connecting black stockings. The girl's eyes were yellow and reminded Sanguine of the numerous Faunus he would save. In fact he was pretty sure he had meet this girl before. But where? And what was her name again? Something with a B.
"Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world." Beatrix spoke, at least Sanguine thought that was her name. No that was not right, too long.
"Finally some recognition." Weiss said smugly. That look was wiped off when Brittany spoke next. Nope not right either.
"The same company for its controversial labor forces and questionable business partners." Bob wasn't right either. Weiss sputtered and stumbled over her words for a bit before getting frustrated and storming off.
"I promise I'll make this up to you!" Ruby called after Weiss's retreating figure.
"Ah that's right, Blake!" Sanguine yelled out, startling both girls. The now correctly named Blake looked at the red caped boy for a few moments before her eyes widened in shock and horror.
"You know her?" Ruby asked with extreme curiosity. Her brother now knew two people here, while she only knew Pyrrha. That was an odd switch up.
"Yea, we meet on a train a few months ago." Sanguine said. Blake's eyes had the beginnings of tears in them as she thought her disguise would be blown and she would be arrested.
"Welp it's nice to see you again, but we should head out Ruby." Sanguine waved to Blake as he and his sister walked towards the school. Blake had to take a few moments to compose herself before she ran after them. She needed to clear things up with the guy who severally pissed off Adam that night.
XIXIXIXIXIXIXIXIXIXI
On their way to the amphitheater they bumped into the vomit boy named Jaune Arc. After Jaunes introduction with Ruby exceeded his 20 word limit he drowned out the blond boy and walked to the side of them as they talked.
"Psst." Sanguine could hear Blake trying to get his attention from behind a support back down the walkway. While Sanguine could hear her, he knew Ruby and Jaune most likely couldn't because somehow his training ended up giving him super senses as well. The physical stuff he could understand, hell even the high resistance to fire and cold came from him not using the heater or AC during that time, but the super sight and hearing just baffled him. Maybe it was the Banana every morning? Ah well, who cared anyways?
"I'll catch up with you guys." Sanguine excused himself as he walked over to the hiding girl.
"Yes?" He asked. Blake stared down at him with concern.
"What are you doing here?!" She whispered semi loudly.
"Got accepted in early."
"...Ar-Are you going to say anything about…. you know?" Blake hesitantly asked. Sanguine furrowed his brow in confusion until he remembered the details the train. He had stopped some White Fang from blowing it up, and Blake had been one who turned traitor when she found out about the killing people part. Then some dude tried slicing him with his red sword so he bit it in half. Not exactly a normal reaction but it was closer to his mouth than his arm so he went with it.
"Didn't you leave that group?" He was pretty sure she did, after all she tried to give him a speech about it, and he had promptly ignored it in favor of getting something to eat.
"Yes, I'm done with the White Fang."
"Then we're good." With that cleared up in his mind Sanguine walked off leaving a slightly bewildered Blake. She felt like that kid was really low balling the severity of the situation but hey, at least he wasn't going to rat her out.
Sanguine approached Jaune and Ruby right as they figured out they didn't know where they were going. After a few more minutes of wandering they eventually made it to the amphitheater where all the new students were gathered.
"Ruby, Sanguine, over here. I saved you a spot." Yang called from across the room. Sanguine wondered how that worked since the room was wide open and no seats were present, so it seemed you just stood where ever.
"Oh, hey I got to go. I'll see you after the ceremony." Ruby excused herself and ran towards Yang. Jaune looked at Sanguine with a smile as he received the normal bored look from the red head.
"Sooo, you're Ruby's brother?"
"Congrats, you noticed. World's greatest detective has nothing on you." Sanguine replied as he walked away from the blond boy to join his sisters. Jaune slumped his shoulders and sighed defeat as he watched the three siblings meet up.
"Great. Where am I supposed to find another nice, quirky girl to talk to?" Right as Jaune said that he was bumped from behind by another red head, knocking him over. Pyrrha let out numerous apologies as she helped the boy up.
"Sorry, sorry, I really should have been paying attention." She said.
"It's fine, just caught me off guard is all. I'm Jaune Arc by the way." Jaune introduced himself to yet another red headed girl.
"Pyrrha Nikos. Um, Jaune I don't suppose you've seen another red haired boy around here have you? He's younger than us, has a red cape and hood, kinda pale..."
"And has a sarcasm problem?" Jaune filled in what he assumed was the description for the Rose brother.
"Yea, yea he does. But you've seen him? I lost him after we got off the airship." Pyrrha asked. You'd think that it would be hard to lose someone who wore a bright red cape, but in a sea of people dressed in vibrant colors it was pretty easy. Some girl had neon rainbow colored hair and it threw Pyrrha off enough for her to lose sight of her friend.
"Yeah, he's over there." Jaune pointed to the group. Pyrrha smiled and thanked him before running over to her friend.
"...you mean since you ditched me and I exploded?" Welp she choose the wrong time to enter the conversation.
"Yikes, melt down already?" Yang questioned her sister.
"No I literally exploded a hole in front of the school. And there was some fire, and I think some ice."
"I can attest to there indeed being some ice, as well as lightning." Sanguine said as he remembered all of what hit him in the face. Yang stared at the two for a bit before leaning in slightly.
"Are you being sarcastic?" Ruby let out a huff as she turned away from Yang. Pyrrha wanted context, yet also felt like she didn't. Sometimes it was better to just not know.
As Ruby rushed to explain what happened to Yang, Weiss snuck up behind Ruby and began to start yelling again. Turning to Pyrrha, Sanguine waved and began to do anything other than listen to Ice Pop ramble.
"So, what's new with you?" He asked his co-champion of three years.
"Oh, just getting used to the sights and hopefully remembering where everything is. You?" She replied. It seemed odd to not have a map for new students available, apparently they wanted you to wing it when it came to finding things.
"Well so far I've been hit with an explosive and watched my little sis get yelled at by Ice Pop over there." Sanguine pointed towards Weiss who was making a sarcastic comment about her and Ruby being friends. Yes, he was older that Ruby by 37 seconds, therefore she was his little sister.
"You were hit with an explosive?"
"I get hit with a lot of things, explosives are just one of the top ones." He answered with no signs of caring about the fact that was not normal.
"...You are a very danger prone person." Pyrrha observed. Even when he dressed as the knight in their fights, he would take shot after shot, making her wonder if his Semblance was durability or he just didn't care enough to acknowledge he had been hurt. It was hard to tell with him.
"I feel like that's a good thing. The more Grimm I attract, the more I will be able to get rid of, and slowly make the world a better place. I mean, that is why we are here right?" He asked rhetorically.
The sounds of a microphones backfeed cut off Pyrrha as Ozpin and the blonde witch woman stood on the stage. This was the worst part of school for Sanguine. Listening to assembly speeches that drug on for way too long.
"I'll keep this brief." Ozpin started off. Sanguine doubted that as the man proceeded to say how everyone here was wasted potential and that knowledge, while useful, would only carry you so far. And much too Sanguine's surprise, that was it. Ozpin walked off while the witch lady told everyone to go to the ballroom and that their initiation was tomorrow.
"Huh. That was easily the best assembly ever." Sanguine stated.
"He seemed out of it. Almost like something else was bothering him." Pyrrha commented.
"Maybe he really had to fart, but didn't want to do it in public?"
"...I somehow doubt that's the case." Pyrrha sighed at her friend. She knew he was smarter than he let on, but sometimes it really made her question if he was actually an idiot.
Not that she would ever call him one, she was raised better than to insult people. Something that was not taught to Sanguine apparently.
"I'm a natural blond you know." The two redheads heard Jaune state to Weiss in a sad attempt to flirt with the girl. The white clad girl facepalmed and let out an exasperated sigh at the attempt.
Seeing the rest of the students begin to clear out and head towards the Ballroom for the night Sanguine and Pyrrha rejoined the group as everyone went off to get changed for the night. Sanguine wondered if there was going to be dividers in the room since having a massive amount of hormonal teenagers, both boy and girl, all sleep in the same room would be so stupid, he doubted the Headmaster would let it slide.
XIXIXIXIXIXIXIXIX
So Ozpin lost major points in the 'Not an idiot' category for Sanguine as he sat down next to his sister's on the floor. Apparently the grey haired moron thought that having everyone sleep in one room would be great.
He could understand the idea of treating them like adults if they were going to be training to slay monsters, but there was just some people he wouldn't trust sleeping in the same room with the opposite sex. Yang was one of them.
"It's like a big slumber party!" His older sister yelled out as she plopped onto her sleeping bag.
"I don't think dad would approve of all the boys." Ruby noted as she wrote to her friends back at Signal.
"I know I do *Purrr*." Yang stared at several of the boys without shirts wrestling around and flexing at different girls. Jaune apparently chose comfort over looks as he walked out in a blue onesie with bunny slippers, causing Yang to look away. Sanguine could feel the stares from the other girls and guys in the room as they stared at his bare chest.
"That why you stole my shirt?" He normally wore a shirt but Yang had stolen and hid it from him saying he needed to 'Show off that rad body'.
You see, while he wore clothing his skinny appearance didn't do much more looking fit or being intimidating. It just made him look like a skinny teenager. Without cloths though he had a physique that put everyone else in the rooms to shame. He had very lean and defined muscles across his entire body and a very visible six pack despite not flexing. Add in the fact that it was not bulky like a body builders and more akin to a martial artists, and it drew some looks.
"Look at all the looks you're getting from the girls little bro! Ladies will be lining up to ask you out." Yang tried to push her way of thinking onto her brother. Ruby she was far more protective of in the area of the opposite sex due to her naivety. Sanguine though, she felt the need to play match-maker because she (As well as their dad and Uncle Qrow) knew he was not the 'go get'em type' in regards to dating.
"Yes, because having someone date me purely off appearance alone is an effective way of getting a stable relationship." Sanguine drawled.
"Works for me." Yang countered.
"You've broken up with your last 6 boyfriends. And I know because my room is right next to yours, and I have stupid super hearing." Yang looked sheepish as she rubbed the back of her head.
"So you can hear me venting huh? That why you bought the earmuffs?"
"No. Those were because I could hear your favorite nighttime activity." Sanguine deadpanned as Yang's face got red. Normally she would be fine, but the fact her little brother was the one to hear her made her a tad uncomfortable.
"Oh, hehehehehe, sorry?" Yang uncomfortably laughed. She wasn't apologizing for doing it, she was apologizing for her little brother hearing it. And he had bought the earmuffs 3 months after moving into the room next to hers. And she did it almost every night.
"Yeah the panting got real annoying after a while."
"What activity?" Ruby asked with a curious expression from her sleeping bag. The surrounding people that could hear the conversation all had wide eyes at what was being insinuated.
"Nothing!"
"Dance, Dance Revolution: My Little Pony Edition."
"SANGUINE!" Yang yelled as she tried to tackle her brother. Ruby wondered why that was so embarrassing as the eavesdroppers all face planted from the answer and their dirty minds acting up.
Blake watched as the one person here that knew her secret evaded his sister's wrath by jumping up onto the ceiling support beams. She founded it odd that this was the same person who not only helped thwart the train robbery/destruction, but also had managed to stop numerous other White Fang plans. The stories from the people after words that escaped the police made it seem like he was some unstoppable force capable of ultimate annihilation. Meeting him in person showed he was good, but not to the level he was hyped up to be, and today she just saw him being an idiot kid without a care in the world.
Sighing as she could see that his sisters yelling about not revealing secrets aloud, would prevent her from getting any reading done she closed her book and blew out the candle nearby. Hopefully tomorrow would be less hectic.
XIXIXIXIXIXIX
'Loker number 666. Sounds ominous. And why is it so far from everyone else?' Sanguine thought as he walked to his locker. The closest person to him was Jaune, who was 30 lockers away, and his sisters were even farther than that. There wasn't even any sign of the lockers around him being used! Now that was just fishy.
Coming to his assigned locker he noticed it was covered in pentagrams, weird writing, there was goat head drawn on it, and the sounds of people perpetually screaming emerged from it.
"Hmm, my common sense is tingling." Sanguine said to himself in reference of sixth sense that told him when danger or a trap was nearby. Having read enough comics he had seen all the tricks the bad guys use and figured that the Grimm and White Fang wouldn't be any different. So far he had been proven right. Opening the locker, a massive torrent of fire engulfed him as the screams got much louder and fire began emerging from it. The smell of brimstone and smoke filled the air around him as a massive flaming horned demon head popped out of the flames.
"FOOLISH MORTAL! YOU HAVE SEVERED THE BOND THAT WITH HELD MY WRATH FOR OVER 3000 YEARS! NEVER ENDING DARKNESS AND DEATH WILL PLAGUE THE LAND AS I-ARGH!" The demon was cut off was Sanguine gave it a sturdy punch to the flaming head. The monster shattered into embers as the fire dissipated and the screams halted.
"Get out of my locker." With all the fire and annoyingness out of the way, Sanguine grabbed the bladed whip that was Thorns Prick and shut the door. Honestly the nerve of some people. Hiding in his locker in an attempt to startle him? Well they would have to get up pretty early to fool him with the old demon in the locker trick. He had already dealt with that one five times now, and it was getting old.
