A/N: Hello everybody! I'm here with another chapter of Breaking Bad in Remnant!
This has gotten some decent reception. Kinda wish there were more reviews, but I'll take what I can get.
Oh well. Let's not waste anymore time.
On with the chapter!

Witnessing Terror
"What happened to your hair?"
Walt knew Jesse was referring to his now shaved head and signature goatee.
"I could ask you the same thing."
"Wait, what?"
Jessie patted his head and face…and sure enough, the hair he had grown during his enslavement was gone. He looked just like he had before being captured by Jack's gang.
"Holy…did someone mess with our hair?"
Walt shrugged. "Your guess is as good as mine."
"…How are we alive?"
That's the question of the hour, Walt thought.
"Again, your guess is as good as mine. For now, let's just focus on finding out where we are."
Walt and Jesse found the exit to the warehouse and stepped out. They found themselves to be in what appeared to be a docking area, if the shipping containers and water area were anything to go by.
"Why are we at a dock?" Jesse asked.
Walt sighed. "Another question to add to the list." He gestured towards the shipping containers. "Come on. We need to be quiet."
Walt and Jesse snuck around many shipping containers, making sure to stay hidden in case there were people with bad intentions towards them.
As they traversed the docks, they heard a commotion.
"Hey! What's the hold up?!"
Signaling for Jesse to stay quiet and follow him, Walt snuck along the side of a shipping container and peered around it, Jesse getting on the ground to look as well.
"We're not exactly the most inconspicuous bunch of thieves at the moment, so why don't you animals try to pick up the pace?"
The man who said this wore a red-lined white suit and small grey scarf, as well as black pants and shoes. On his head, which had orange hair, was a bowler hat, and in his hand was a cane.
Near him were a group of people in hoods and what appeared to be skull masks. On the back of their clothes was a red wolf marking that had three claw marks on it.
"What the hell's going on, Mr. White?"
Walt shook his head. "Hell if I know."
The man with the bowler hat yelled at one of the mask-wearing people. "No, you idiot! This isn't a leash!"
A single second later, a girl with raven hair and a bow on top got behind the bowler hat man and held a blade at his throat.
"What the- Oh for f-."
"Nobody move!" the girl demanded as the skull mask people readied their weapons.
"Holy shit!" Jesse exclaimed, hopefully quiet enough not to alert anyone.
Too bad neither he nor Walt noticed the girl's bow twitch, but they did see her move her head slightly after the exclamation. Walt and Jesse held their breath, but luckily the bowler hat guy spoke, regaining the girl's attention.
"Whoa! Take it easy there, little lady."
As the masked men closed in, Walt whispered to Jesse. "Stay quiet, damn it! We can't afford to get caught right now."
"Sorry, sorry!" Jesse said. "It's just…she came out of nowhere! And she has a…knife? Sword? Whatever! And she's holding it to that guy's neck!
"Just stay quiet!"
As they turned back to the scene…Walt had to cover Jesse's mouth, as well as his own, to stop the shout of shock either would've given at what they saw.
The girl had taken off her bow…to reveal cat ears on top of her head!
"Brothers of the White Fang!" she shouted. "Why are you aiding this scum?!"
The masked men seemed unsure of themselves for a moment.
Meanwhile, Walt lowered his hands from himself and Jesse when he was sure he nor Jesse would make a noise.
"Mr. White," Jesse began. "Why does that girl have cat ears?"
Walt shook his head. "I don't know, Jesse. I don't know."
"Oh kid," the bowler hat man continued, completely unaware of Walt and Jesse. "Didn't you get the memo?"
"What are you talking about?" the cat girl (mentally dubbed by Jesse) asked.
"The White Fang and I are going in on a joint business venture together!"
The cat girl held her blade closer to the man's neck. "Tell me what it is, or I'll put an end to your little operation!"
Suddenly, the wind picks up and the sound of turbines is heard. Walt and Jesse look up…and pale as they see odd looking flying ships hovering above.
Just where in the hell were they, and what did they stumble into?
"I wouldn't exactly call it a little operation."
As the girl is distracted, the bowler hat man lowers his can…and pulls a trigger?
No sooner had he done that that what appeared to be an explosive flare fired into the ground, separating the man and the girl.
"Did that guy's cane just fire an explosive?!" Jesse shouted, beyond shock.
Walt quickly pulled Jesse behind the shipping container. "Okay…right now we can't panic. We need to find a way out of here."
Jesse gave Walt an incredulous look. "Can't panic? CAN'T PANIC?! Now's the perfect time to panic! That girls has cat ears and a sword! That guy's cane's like a flare gun…THAT FIRES EXPLOSIVES!"
Another explosion sounded, and the cat girl appeared near them, hiding being the container in order to put her bow back on. As she finished…she finally saw Walt and Jesse.
The three remained frozen as they faced each other.
…
…
…
Jesse raised his hands in a placating manner. "N-Nice cat girl. F-Friendly cat gi-."
Despite the shock of seeing them, the girl held up her blade as it…transformed into what looked like a pistol?!
"What did you call me?!" she shouted.
Jesse shrunk back a little.
"I think you offended her," Walt muttered to Jesse.
He turned his attention back to the girl. "Look…I apologize for my partner's remark. He doesn't really think before he speaks."
Walt ignored the glare he received from Jesse.
"Now, while I'm sure you have questions about who we are or why we're here…I think you have more important matters to attend to."
The sounds of fighting could be heard. The girl hesitated for a moment before finally conceding.
"Just…" the cat girl sighed. "Just stay out of the crossfire."
And with that, the cat girl sped past them into the fray. As Walt and Jesse looked on, they found that another person had joined the fight. This one had light brown skin, an open jacket with no shirt, blue shorts, blonde hair, and…a monkey tail?
"Great," Jesse muttered. "Just great! A cat girl was bad enough, but now we have a monkey boy here!"
Walt sighed. "Jesse, if that girl's reaction is anything to go by, calling that kid 'monkey boy' is offensive."
"Lecture me about not being offensive later! What the hell are we supposed to do right now?!"
Walt looked back to the fight as the cat girl joined in. She fought using her sword and…somehow made copis of herself? What's more, the monkey boy was fighting with a bowstaff…that turned into nun chucks…which could also shoot.
"Shadow clones and nun chucks that shoot," Jesse said, shaking his head. "What's next? A freaking scythe?!"
Walt raised an eyebrow at Jesse. "Shadow clones?"
"It's an anime thing."
"Huh-." Walt paused. "Wait, anime?"
Jesse waved him off. "Me and a friend were high one time and we were just browsing the internet. Nothing more to say." He looked back to the fight. "Looks like the guy with the cane's about to do something."
The bowler hat man fired his cane at a cable that held a shipping container. The container fell, separating the monkey boy and cat girl. As he was about to waste the monkey boy, a shout was heard.
"Hey!"
All eyes turned to the sound and found a girl with a red hood….
Wielding a scythe.
The bowler hat guy waved. "Well hello, Red! Isn't it past your bedtime?"
Meanwhile, Walt and Jesse gawked at the sight of a little girl wielding a scythe bigger than she was. Jesse looked up at the sky to scream to the heavens.
"I WAS ONLY KIDD-!"
The rest of that statement was lost in Jesse's throat as his eyes widened in horror.
"M-Mr. White?"
Walt looked at Jesse, who wordlessly pointed up at the sky. Walt turned his attention upward.
"…Oh my god."
What Walt and Jesse saw was none other than a broken moon in the sky.
…
…
…
"Mr. White…I wanna go home."
Walt gulped. "I…I'm not sure we can."
"And who are you two?"
Walt and Jesse froze. Slowly, they lowered their heads to find the bowler hat guy aiming his cane at them.
…
…
…
Jesse immediately ran in the direction away from the bowler hat guy.
"JESSE!" Walt shouted, running after him.
"Oh no you don't," the bowler hat guy muttered.
He promptly fired an explosive flare at them.
Seeing it coming, Walt dropped to the ground as the flare flew over him….
Towards Jesse.
"JESSE! DUCK!"
Jesse turned towards the shout and the flare was already incoming.
"Oh cra-."
BOOM!
The flare exploded, sending Jesse several feet back.
"JESSE!"
Walt quickly got up and ran towards Jesse.
The bowler hat guy made to aim his cane at Walt, but a sniper shot whizzing past him drew his attention back to the little red reaper, prompting him to fire a flare at her.
Walt reached Jesse's body to find him…completely fine and glowing?
"Jesse?" Walt carefully asked.
Jesse groaned as he slowly sat up. Remembering the flare, he freaked out as he checked himself for a wound. In all honesty, he didn't expect himself to be alive, nor did he expect himself to be glowing. Jesse could only stare in awe (and slight horror). The same could be said for Walt.
"W-What the hell?!" Jesse exclaimed. "H-How did I survive that?"
Walt tried to give an answer…but found that he couldn't. None of this made sense!
Both he and Jesse were supposed to be dead.
There are apparently people with animal parts.
There are weapons that serve for both melee and shooting.
The moon was somehow shattered.
And now Jesse somehow survived an explosive flare and was glowing for a bit before it disappeared.
Could anything else happen?!
Screams from behind answered that question.
Walt and Jesse looked and found a girl with orange hair fighting off the masked men with…floating swords?
…
…
…
And if that wasn't enough, then she propelled herself backwards and fired what appeared to be a laser beam, downing two airships.
…
…
…
And if that wasn't enough, she used an incredible amount of strength to bring down another airship that attempted to get away with a shipping container.
…
…
…
"Mr. White?"
"Yes, Jesse?"
"I don't wanna be here anymore."
"The feeling's mutual."
And with that, Walt and Jesse hightailed it out of there, away from the insanity they had witnessed.
Shame they didn't make their escape without being seen, since the bow-wearing cat girl saw them take off.
With all the fighting over and the police having arrived, Team RWBY had finally reunited and made up. Once again, they were a team.
"YEAH!" Ruby exclaimed while pumping her fists. "Team RWBY is back together!"
The disappearance of Penny was noticed, but nothing could be done about that since they didn't know where she went off to.
Yang noticed Blake staring into the distance.
"Is something wrong, Blake?" Yang asked.
Blake had been staring at the place where those two men she encountered earlier had disappeared off to.
"It's just…there were two other people here at the docks," she admitted. "And they weren't White Fang."
"Maybe they were dock workers?" Ruby suggested.
Blake shrugged. "Maybe…but I'd like to know why they were here. The entire area was deserted. No dock workers in sight. Yet, those two were. It can't be a coincidence they were here at the same time as the White Fang."
Weiss crossed her arms. "Well, you can't exactly go after them. The police still need to talk to you, Ruby and…him"
"My name's Sun, you know."
He was promptly ignored.
Blake sighed. "I know."
Sun stepped in. "You know…if you want to go find those guys, I could stall the cops for a bit while you go look."
Sun grinned when Blake gave him a surprised look. "No worries, really."
Blake looked back to where the two mystery men had disappeared to…then back to Sun.
"Are you sure?"
"Totally. I got you covered."
Weiss pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed audibly. "Well…if you really need to speak with whoever you saw, then I guess you should do so before they're gone for good."
"And just so you know," Weiss added. "We're coming with you this time."
Blake smiled. "I won't argue with that."
"Alright!" Ruby exclaimed. "Team RWBY's mission is to locate those two people Blake saw and find out who they are and why they were here! Mission start!"
Ruby sped off using her Semblance.
…
…
…
Only to return with an embarrassed look on her face.
"I…have no idea where they went."
Yang laughed, Weiss rolled her eyes, and Blake smirked.
"They went that way," Blake pointed out. "Come on."
And so Team RWBY went off in search of the two men Blake had encountered.
A/N: And there we go. Walt and Jesse freaked out at the capabilities of those of Remnant, and Jesse somehow has an Aura.
Does Walt have one too?
Probably.
Will they have a Semblance?
...That's up for debate.
How did they get an Aura in the first place?
...Again, up for debate.
So...I noticed no one has said whether or not Jesse should be paired with anyone. Again, the choices are:
Cinder
Winter
Neo
Coco
Velvet
I'll leave this decision open till the next chapter, or the one after that. Depends if anyone says anything. If no one says anything, or if not that many people say anything, then I'll just decide for myself.
If you liked this and want to be kept up to date, be sure to follow and fav. Leave a review to tell me what you thought, as well as give some input into the possible pairing for Jesse.
See you all in a week or two...or in my other stories.
LATERS!
