Chapter 3: The Emerald Forest

"Just slow the descent Casshern... Easy does it, OH MONTY NOT THE TREE!" Casshern thought frantically as he swerved and weaved along the treeline to avoid crashing into any trees. "I never had to deal with trees in the Ruin only mountains! Only mountains, and deserts!"

Casshern landed on a large branch and slowly worked his way down to the ground level, jumping from tree to tree to figure out where he was. "Well I know where I am, I just have to make sure I'm facing...north. But this could be my chance to escape, how many Hunters and Huntresses in training end up dead in initiation?"

Casshern mulled over that thought awhile as he continued walking north towards the Ruins. "No. I cannot just leave. I'm going to regret not leaving but it seems the world needs me once again. I don't know how or when, but coming to Beacon academy is a sign. A sign from who though?"

The sound of a girl screaming caught his attention and caused him to stop. "No time for that! One of the girls is in trouble!" He thought as he began to run at his full speed, covering a lot of ground as he did

A field close to the ruins

Yang and her partner Blake looked in shock as an orange haired girl rode into the field on an Ursa before killing it. "Did she just ride in there on an Ursa?" Blake Asked as Yang gave a small nod in reply. Things got even weirder when Jaune landsd onto a tree branch with a groan as Pyrrha ran out into the field with a Deathstalker on her six.

"Jaune!"

"Pyrrha!" Jaune shouted as he tried to get his footing as he then noticed a familiar figure in a red hood land in a tree then jump to the safe ground. "Ruby?"

"Ruby?"

"Yang!"

"Nora!" Both sisters stopped to look at the Ursa rider before the elder sibling started to look very annoyed.

"That's it! Will things just chill for one minute before insanity ensues again?!" Yang shouted, her lilac eyes turning red.

"Uhh Yang?" Ruby asked tentatively before pointing upwards towards a large Nevermore grimm, that had Weiss hanging on for dear life.

"How could you leave me?!" Shouted the heiress.

"I said jump!" Ruby shouted back.

"She's gonna fall." Blake commented.

"She'll be fine." Ruby stated calmly as possible right as she heard the sound of falling.

"She's falling." Stated a black haired young man with light violet eyes with a small bit of his hair the same color who had just gotten Nora's attention back.

Jaune saw Weiss falling and jumped to catch her, which he successfully did, only to realize he forgot to make a landing strategy, again. Now two people were falling, at least until the sound of the sound barrier breaking caught everyone's ears as a swift white, black and red blur grabbed the two midair and set them back on the ground before the rest of the group, though Jaune was dropped abruptly.

"My back...thanks for the save Cain." Jaune said painfully as Casshern opened his visor in a smirk.

"Next time remember to use your Aura, or at least get in a better landing position then just back first." The Neo Human replied as he turned to look at the two Grimm. "Those look like an appropriate challenge I suppose. You guys made it to your relics yet?" Casshern paused as he said that and frowned. "Take that as a no."

"Well now that the gang's all here we can all go out together!" Yang shouted.

"It'll take more then that to end our existence." Casshern stated calmly before he saw Ruby running at the Grimm. "Ruby!" He then began to hurry after her, trying to stop her from doing anything stupid. Unfortunately for him and Ruby, something stupid happened to them. Both speedy individuals were hit by the Deathstalker and Ruby was sent flying several feet, whilst Casshern who ran faster, was launched slightly farther, as per the laws of force, mainly the equal and opposite reaction.

Either way, the Neo human was now face down. "Ow, good thing I wore my helmet for just such an occasion." He muttered to himself getting up and shaking his head to look over towards Ruby, who started to run towards him before the nevermore overhead shot several feathers, pinning her by the hood. Casshern's eyes widened as his visor slammed shut and his eyes glow bright green.

Casshern sped right towards the Deathstalker, jumped, and delivered a swift punch towards it, sending it skidding fifty feet away from Ruby as he landed next to her.

Ruby's eyes widened at the look of Casshern's eyes. "Cain? What was that?"

"Simply put, my soul manifesting itself. My semblance as you call it." Casshern lied as the glow faded. "It has some odd perks here and there. I have a pretty hard time keeping it in control." He rubbed the back of his neck and closed his eyes in a slightly shy tone. "No need to tell her or anyone else that I'm an immortal mesh of man and machine.. Just yet that is."

The Deathstalker got up and was about to charge at Casshern and Ruby again when it was trapped by a frozen wall. Casshern raised an eyebrow before turning to see an approaching Weiss looking ready to scold Ruby. He used this opportunity to head into the temple and look at the relics.

"Damn... Me without a partner and there's not enough relics." He muttered. "And chess pieces? Really? Can't humans make more significant symbolism anymore ?" He heard the others arrive and he softly smiled to himself.

"This could be my way out. And back into hiding." Casshern thought. "Anyone without relics grab them and go! I'll be fine waiting for next year for my chance to get into beacon!" He shouted, watching them take the remaining pieces present. He smirked silently to himself. "I'll probably pretend to get eaten by a Grimm.."

It was then Casshern saw a solitary piece by itself, along with another object near it. "Ozpin's handiwork. That man wants me to stay here! I'm going to..to... gah!" Frowning the Neo Human fumed inwardly as he took both. "Never mind! I found one!"

He hurried out only to see both Nevermore and Deathstalker on two different sides of the bridge, trapping the eight teenagers. "I'm gone for one minute!" Casshern muttered, slinking back into his Cain persona. "I have half a mind to come down there you guys!"

As he yelled this Casshern heard a distinct growling sound and turned to stare face to face with a problem of his own. "Not good... For you." He said to the pack of Beowolves as the nearest snarled.

Ozpin's Office

"Whilst I may agree with your decision to bring him here, he'll end up either being unable to attend Beacon fully, or in the least, not have his own team if you allow him Ozpin." Glynda says with a small frown on her face. The Headmaster simply sipped his coffee and continued to stare at the screen, witnessing the eight students battle the more vicious Deathstalker and Nevermore, and the topic of intrigue fighting, and winning, a near one sided conflict with a pack of Beowolves.

"Needless to say, it's our only chance to have a trump card close at hand. Especially with recent events proving him to be."

"Ozpin, you seriously think this Man is the Immortal Man?" Glynda asked with an incredulous tone in her voice.

Ozpin frowned as he stared at Casshern as the Neo Human finishes off the horde, bearing heavy scratches that begin slowly and painfully healing. "I do not think Glynda. I know."

The Field

Casshern groaned as his wounds start healing as he sheathes Lyuze. "That's gonna hurt when I lie down." He muttered under his breath as he turned to see his newfound friends take care of the Deathstalker and Nevermore, witnessing Ruby pull off a daring feat in decapitating the beast. "Good job guys! Two thumbs up!" Casshern yells out giving the exact gesture at the same time.

Weiss noting his distance glared. "Why didn't you come over here and help us you dolt?!" That was answered by Casshern flying towards them.

"I did help you. Stayed out of the way and kept some Beowolves off ya." Casshern said with a small frown, inwardly thanking the fact he wasn't sounding socially awkward yet.

Later: Naming Ceremony

Casshern sat on his chair almost ignoring the long drawl of team assignment ceremony results, but perked up when he watched as his eight semi newfound good friends went up, forming Teams JNPR (Juniper) and RWBY (Ruby) respectively. Casshern smirked at Weiss's reaction to not being named leader.

"Now last order of business. Will Cain Azura step forward?" Casshern looked at Ozpin from his seat and almost fought the urge to glare as he walked on stage.

"Cain Azura, you have received no partner, yet you alone recovered the white pawn piece and exceed expectations of Grimm combat. Therefore, you are to be a reserve member of both teams JNPR and RWBY under the codename, Casshern." Ozpin stated and smiled, "Congratulations and continue surprising me."

"I shall professor." He stated. "After I go to my dorm and scream in my pillow for several minutes."

Whew, Finally got this written out...though I probably condensed it a bit too much for time sake. This is mostly Casshern's view of RWBY after all.

anyhow, Review Response time!

DocSlendy: glad you like it so far, and hope you stay awhile!

Zabaniya: Well I am striving to try to keep things following the show.However, as the story progresses, be prepared for a shift in the Canon.

Now then, Announcement for this story. I'm three chapters into this story. It's time I gave Pairings a bit of serious thought. As Zabaniya has noted in his review Casshern (Or Casshan, however you wish to say his name) has made some impact one some of the female characters.

So, with that being said, lets pair Casshern up with somebody, since I actually thought up some pairing names, I'm letting you see and decide in your reviews. It'll help, or impact other pairings once we get this out of the way. They are:

Aoi Hana: CasshernxRuby (Potentially fun and Quirky moments.. Along with protective Yang shenanigans.)

Immortal Dragon: CasshernxYang (Cause why not.)

Eternal Combatants: CasshernxPyrrha (Sorry Arkos Fans... I'm one myself but I think this relationship could Mirror The one he had with Lyuze in Casshern Sins.)

Thats all I got so remember to Review and let the chips fall where they may!
