Back again. First I would like to thank ShadowWarriorOmega for the excellent suggestion he made regarding Vile's introduction. As for everything else:

To CobaltGale: Really? Well thanks!

To ZXEclipse: …I refuse to answer that this early into the story.

To zero: No, X will not be paired with anyone.

To Firem78910: I have no idea what a cattleya is, but it sounds more badass than my idea for an electricity themed Maverick. It was THUNDER LEMUR. Seriously.

To drake202: Glad you enjoy it. 1.) I believe Capcom made an official statement that the Mega Men drop their upgrades at the end of each game so they don't risk becoming corrupted by power. HOWEVER, in X5, he DOES use Frost Tower in battle against Zero, so they are presumably stored at the Hunter Base. Which no longer exists. 2.) Romantic pairings? No.

To enigma95: Well, those were the ratings Ozpin gave to X based on what little he knew about him. But yes, 500 years of sleep has reduced X to somewhere around his original stage of power.

If anyone has ideas for new Special Weapons, please let me know!

At certain intervals throughout the story, X will obtain new abilities/armors. That being said, here is a list of the upgrades X has internalized into his systems as shown by Project X-Zone. (Check that game out if you haven't already btw.)

Emergency Acceleration System (First Armor Foot Parts): Allows X to perform dashes at high speeds, and instantly reach top speed from a stand still.

Cross Charge Shot (Third Armor Arm Parts): Allows X to charge his Buster up to four stages. At the fourth stage, he can fire Charge Shots from both arms in succession.

Hovering (Fourth Armor Foot Parts): Allows X to hover in mid-air. This has a time limit that decreases the more he moves.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own the Mega Man X series, and I do not own RWBY. The Mega Man franchise is the property of Capcom, and RWBY is the property of Rooster Teeth and Monty Oum.

"Students of Beacon Academy, I present to you the legendary Reploid: Mega Man X!"

Those were the words that caused X to find himself in his present situation. Running down the halls of Beacon, away from a large group of teenagers that were chasing him. Some of them wanted to ask him questions, some wanted his autograph, but most of them wanted to fight. I have no problem with fighting as long as it's just for practice or competition, our blue hero thought to himself, but these kids have no way to protect themselves! My buster would tear right through them!

X turned his head back to observe his pursuers, and saw the black haired, red cloaked girl from the assembly was following at a MUCH higher speed than the rest of the crowd, a determined expression on her face. X's eyes widened in shock as he turned a corner. How is she moving so fast? That speed shouldn't be physically possible for a human! Looking forward again, his cybernetic eyes noticed a door at the end of the hall that read "Supply Closet. Beacon Staff Only." There was a hurriedly scrawled note attached to the door that read "This means STAY OUT, Yang Xiao Long!" X smiled in triumph. I have no idea who 'Yang' is, but this is a perfect hiding spot! He dug his heels into the floor to brake, than franticly looked back, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the girl was no longer chasing him. X ducked into the closet and hugged the floor as he listened for the crowd of students as they rushed past the door. Feeling it was safe, he got up, opened the door… and found the girl from earlier standing outside, waiting for him.

"Hello!" she said with a smile on her face. X simply stared at the girl.

"Where did you come from?" He asked her.

The girl simply grinned wider. "The air vents! My sister showed me how to use them! Hey, can I ask you a question?"

"Uh, sure. Go ahead."

The girl gasped, and sparkles appeared in her eyes. Oh no. X thought, as she began to speak so fast that he could barely understand her.

"Ohmygoshareyoureallyareploidmyfriendblakesaidyouwerebutmyotherfriendweissdidntbelieveherbutyouareohareyouahunterwhatsyourweaponminesascytheitscalledcrescentrosedoesyourshaveaname-"

Unbeknownst to them, Ozpin was watching through one of the security cameras, smiling. "I think miss Rose has had enough fun for now," he said to himself as he pressed down the button for the school's intercom.

"Students of Beacon Academy, this is your headmaster speaking. All of you are to report back to the amphitheater. There will be a special demonstration of X's abilities. I must ask all of you not to harass him until this demonstration is over. X, please report to the Beacon Cliffs."

The girl gasped again. "Oh, sorry, I have to go! My name's Ruby it was fun to meet you bye!", she yelled as she ran off. X blinked a few times as a cloud of…

"Rose petals?" fell to the floor and disappeared. "…These kids are not normal," X said. The blue Reploid looked around in confusion. "Wait. Which way was it to the Cliffs again?"

After what felt like hours, X finally made his way to the Beacon Cliffs, where Ozpin was waiting for him.

"Ah, X. I see you made it after all. I was beginning to think you had gotten lost."

X laughed softly. "I DID get lost, Professor. What was the demonstration I was going to be giving, again?" The grey haired man smiled and motioned X over to a metal pad on the ground, scarf fluttering softly in the wind.

"You are going to undergo the Beacon Academy Initiation. Your goal is to retrieve one of the relics from the abandoned temple deep within the Emerald Forest." Ozpin motioned his hand out in front of the cliffs, and X saw a vast expanse of lush, green trees. It had been a long time since he had seen nature of any kind, much less nature untouched by technology. He closed his eyes and relaxed, feeling the gentle breeze across his face, and stepped onto the pad. "Oh, and I hope you have a good landing strategy," Ozpin smirked.

X opened his eyes at this. "What are you- WAAAAHHH!" he cried out as the metal pad launched him high into the air. X flailed about for a while before his internal gyroscope straightened him out. As he fell, he thought back to his first mission as a Maverick Hunter- working to subdue an out of control Mechaniloid. I guess this is appropriate, he thought. Just like then, this "first mission" is starting out with me falling to the ground.

Back in Beacon's amphitheater, the students were all watching X's fall to the forest floor on the large monitors suspended over the stage. Jaune Arc, leader of Team JNPR, was watching intently, with a frown on his face. Jaune is a teenage boy with messy blonde hair and dark-blue eyes. He wears a white chestplate and shoulder armor. Under the armor, he wears a black hoodie with reddish-orange sleeves. He also wears blue pants with a white patch on the left knee and black shoes with his symbol on the soles.

He has two belts crisscrossing his waist, both different shades of brown, with a pair of small pouches on them. Jaune wears brown wrist-length gloves with exposed fingertips and a small metal plate on the back. "Seriously? Nothing? No fancy tricks?" Jaune questioned. "He's just gonna fall like that?"

"Booorrring!" cried out Nora Valkyrie, one of Jaune's teammates. Nora is a young girl of the same age as Jaune. Nora has short orange hair and turquoise eyes. Her clothing seems to be a mix and match of some sort, with different colors and themes. She wears a collared black vest that ends at her waist. Her signature symbol, a hammer with a lightning bolt, can be found on the back. Under the vest are two layers of clothing, colored red and light-blue respectively.

She also wears a white sleeveless top that forms a tiny heart shape between her cleavage and collarbone, with a white detached sleeve on each arm. She wears matching fingerless gloves on each hand. She sports a pink skirt that starts at the waist and ends mid-thigh. Her shoes are a mix of pink and white with pink laces, and display her symbol on their soles.

She also seems to wear some sort of armor that begins in the middle of the shoulder and neck and ends by the waist. It seems she has a light-gray or off-white bow at the back of her skirt, with ribbon extending to the skirt's bottom. Nora gasped and grabbed one of their other teammates, Lie Ren, by the shoulders. "Hey Ren! Do you think he knows what a sloth sounds like?" she asked her friend rather loudly. Lie Ren is a male teenager with long black hair and a ponytail that ends midway down his back. There is a magenta streak on the left side of his hair, and his eyes are the same color. He wears a dark-green, diagonally-buttoned, long-sleeved tailcoat that is red on the inside, with black and gold trimming and pink cuffs. The trimming goes down the right side of his torso and forms a black collar. He wears black undersleeves beneath the suit, and light-tan pants with black shoes.

"He might," Ren responded before looking over to his leader. "And didn't Pyrrha have to pin you to a tree to keep you from crashing, Jaune?"

Jaune sighed lightly. "….Yeah."

"Sorry again, Jaune," Pyrrha apologized to their leader again. Pyhrra is a teenage girl with red hair, of the same age as the rest of her team. Pyrrha wears her red hair in a waist-length ponytail and has vivid green eyes. She also wears light-green eyeshadow around the upper-corners of her eyes.

Her top consists of two layers. The top layer is a light-brown, strapless top split into two vertically with some bronze patterns. This may be a piece of leather or metal armor as it appears to be quite stiff, maintaining its shape without support; this layer also seems to have some kind of riveting or small, round embroidery on the sides, which may also be heavy stitching. The bottom layer is a low bronze V-neck. Pyrrha wears an elastic, red, A-line miniskirt that ends mid-thigh and brown cut-off sleeves on both arms. She wears a red ankle-length drapery that appears to be wrapped around her skirt.

There is a small circular bronze plate by her right hip opposite a pouch with both connected to a belt.

She wears a bronze circlet headpiece that can be seen above her ear and under her bangs. A pair of small, green, teardrop-shaped emeralds hang from her circlet on thin chains. She also sports a large bronze gorget around her neck, and a bronze bracelet on the upper half of her left arm. She has elaborate bronze greaves that start below mid-thigh, continuing downwards into her boots and a pair of cuisses that begin mid-thigh and end slightly above her knees. Her boots are brown with bronze trim, matching her skirt and sleeves, and reach up to mid-calf.

On the other side of the room, Team RWBY watched X's fall intently, Weiss more so than her teammates. She still wasn't fully convinced he was a Reploid, and the white haired girl watched with a scowl on her face as X flipped over. Once he had made contact with the ground, he rolled forward on the grass, standing up and taking a quick survey of his surroundings. A howl sounded through the clearing, and X looked in its direction before turning away and heading into the forest.

Alright then X, Weiss thought narrowing her eyes a bit, Let's see what you can do.

Deep in the forest, a mass of shadows twisted, and blood-red eyes glared out towards this unknown intruder their owner had sensed.

The hunt had begun.

Okay, this took longer than I wanted it to, but I got about twice as much done as last time, and it didn't take a whole month, so that's something. If anyone wants, I could post my other Maverick ideas. (I warn you though, some of them are…. Weird.) Network Transmission will be ending soon, as well. After that, I'll be playing Pikmin. As always, your support is appreciated. ShadowBurner, AWAY! *Flies off on a pizza rocket*
