Emerald Forest: The Temple

As Ruby continued to fall through the sky Jaune Arc comes flying in from another direction colliding with Ruby and knocking them both into a tree.

"Oohhhh... What was that?" Asked Ruby getting over he dizziness while sitting in a tree branch.

"That was you not thinking your plan through!" Commented Frieza.

"Woah! Lets do it again hahahaha!" Said Buu.

"Happy to see you drop in Frieza." Said Cell with a cheeky smile looking around at everyone expecting laughs.

"..."

"I get it!" Said Yang.

"Eh-hem! Hey, Ruby... " Said Jaune facing her upside down hanging from an upper branch.

"Did your sister just fall from the sky?" Asked Blake, but before Yang could respond a couple of crashing noises were heard coming from the forest as Nora came riding in on an Ursa. Shooting it in the back with a pink blast propelling herself forward from the beast.

(BOOM!)

"YEEEE-HAAAAW! (FROOSH!) Awwww... It's broken." Said Nora sadly as if she was a child who broke their favorite toy.

"*Pant* *Pant* Nora! Please... Don't ever do that again." Said Ren as he looked over to where Nora previously was as she was nowhere to be seen. Now in the Temple, staring at a golden rook relic she snatched it and started singing "I'm queen of the castle! I'm queen of the castle!" But she was interrupted as Ren called out her name.

"Nora!"

"Coming Ren!" Said Nora wuith the rock piece still on her head as she dashed over to him.

"Did that girl just ride in on an Ursa?" Asked Blake.

"I..." Started Yang.

"What... The hell... Just happened?" Asked Broly trying to process exactly what he just said.

"All I can say is that I'm happy that none of them are inside of me. Or 'were' since I became human." Said Cell as everyone paused and looked at Cell with confused and disgusted looks.

"What? You too Frieza? I thought you already knew that you were inside of me-"

"STOP IT!" Yelled Frieza as Yang and Buu could barely contain her laughter. But their laughter was stopped mid-sentence as Pyrrha Nikos comes onto the scene as the scorpion creature uproots entire trees in its chase after her. Pyrrha narrowly dodges its giant claws and keeps on running. As Pyrrha kept running she saw Jaune in the tree.

"Jaune!" Yelled Pyrrha.

"Pyrrha!" Yelled Jaune.

Ruby stood up from the tree branch, looking at the monster below as she starts running off of the branch and ended up landing on Frieza of all people knocking him down. As Ruby picked herself up she looked down on who she was on top of.

"What the-?! GET OFF OF ME YOU DISHEVELED HOMOSAPIEN!" Yelled Frieza.

"FRIEZA! I'm so sorr-"

"Ruby!" Whined Jaune.

"Ruby!" Cheered Yang running up to her sister, with Ruby completely forgetting about Frieza and moving off of him standing up and walking to her sister."

"Yang!" Cheered Ruby.

"Nora!" Cheered Nora jumping in between the two sisters. Just as the greetings were over with the Death Stalker broke free of the tree and ran after the young hunters.

"Did she just run all the way here with a Death Stalker on her tail?" Asked Blake.

"I can't take it anymore! Can everyone just chill out for two seconds before something crazy happens again?!" Yelled Yang with her red eyes. Two seconds passed as Ruby tugged on her sisters shirt as she said.

"Umm... Yang?" Said Ruby as she pointing up where a giant Nevermore was flying over them with Weiss hanging on from the giant avian's claw.

"How could you leave me!?" Yelled Weiss.

"You just HAD to say that didn't you?" Said Broly standing next to Yang.

"Hey I didn't know this was going to happen!" Yelled Yang.

"Of curse you didn't you dumb bimbo." Said Broly.

"SHUT UP!" Yelled Yang as her eyes changed to red.

"DO YOU WISH TO DIE!?" Yelled Broly back with his pupils starting to vanish.

"Can we focus on the matter at hand!?" Yelled Cell ending the potential fight between Yang and Broly before it began.

"I said "Jump!" Yelled Ruby.

"Maybe if I had a parachute-"

"She said JUMP DOWN!" Yelled Buu.

"I could probably wait until the Nevermore landed-"

"AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!" Yelled Buu out of frustration.

"She's going to fall." Said Blake.

"She'll be fine." Said Ruby

"She's falling." Said Ren as Weiss let go and started falling. As Jaune was standing in the tree

seeing Weiss fall he realized this was his chance to impress her! As she was falling Jaune jumped from the tree and leaped out as he caught her saying.

"Just... dropping in?" Asked Jaune charmingly actually causing Weiss to become speechless. But good things never last long as Jaune just realized he was falling as well.

"Oh, noooooooo- Oomph!" Said Jaune as he fell and landed on the ground, with Weiss landing on his back.

"My hero..." Said Weiss mockingly.

"My back..." Said Jaune trying to recover as both of them picked themselves back up. As the two picked themselves up the Death Stalker came rushing in batting Pyrrha while doing it. And tossed her on the ground near the rest of the gang.

"Great! The gang's all here! Now we can die together!" Said Yang.

"Well maybe all of YOU will die, I can just regenerate and survive!" Said Buu crossing his arms.

"Your compassion is overwhelming Buu." Said Cell.

"Not if I can help it! I'll fight it off!" Yelled Ruby as she dashed after the Death Stalker with Crescent Rose ready for combat.

"Ruby, wait!" Yelled Yang trying to run after Ruby. As Ruby was about to attack the Death Stalker it simply smacked her away.

"Well not really fight, more like flailing angrily." Said Frieza. Ruby picked herself back up as she called out.

"D-Do-Don't worry! Totally fine!" Called out Ruby as she turn around and fired at the dark scorpion running the other way.

"RUBY!" Yelled Yang as she rushed in. The Nevermore was flying over Ruby as it let down a barrage of giant razor sharp feathers. Ruby dodged the feathers but her cape got hit by one keeping her in place and halting Yang. Ruby tried to struggle to get away but.

"Ruby get out of there!" Screamed Yang.

"I'm trying!" Yelled back Ruby trying to break free of the feather. But then the Death Stalker returned as it raised its stinger ready to kill Ruby. But as it let its stinger down a white blurr dashed by and froze the Death Stalkers stinger in place.

"You are SO childish" Said a very familiar voice.

"Weiss..." Asked Ruby looking up to see that it was indeed Weiss who saved her by creating an ice wall to stop the Death Stalkers sting.

"And dim-witted, and hyperactive, and don't even get me started on your fighting style. And I suppose I can be a bit... difficult... but if we're going to do this, we're going to have to do this together. So if you quit trying to show off, I'll be... nicer." Said Weiss.

"I'm not trying to show off. I want you to know I can do this." Stated Ruby.

"You're fine." Said Weiss as she started to walk away. But before she could make it any further the ice started to crack as it shattered freeing the Death Stalkers tail, but this time the Death Stalker smacked away Weiss with one of its pinchers and was ready to sting Ruby. But just like before the stinger never got to Ruby, Frieza was standing in front of Ruby with his back to her and trying to hold back the Death Stalkers stinger back.

"FRIEZA!? I didn't know you were that strong!" Yelled Ruby out of shock.

"Enough talkie! Start runnie!" Yelled Frieza still struggling to hold the stinger back with his bare hands.

"Come on Ruby! We need to leave!" Said Weiss as she grabbed Ruby by the cape and started dragging her away.

"My ice buddies!" Said Ruby cheerfully.

"Keep saying that and YOUR this things next meal!" Yelled Frieza as he started to push the Death Stalker back. Eventually Frieza mustered up all the strength he could in this human body as he actually picked up and threw the arachnid several feet back. The creature was on its back as it tried to flip itself back over and attack Frieza but Frieza pointed out his finger and blasted the creature. He turned out to have actually froze the creature in ice.

"What the hell?! That was supposed to be a death beam what the hell was that!?" Yelled Frieza out of confusion and anger as he walked back to the group. Yang ran over to Ruby as she gave her a big hug along with Frieza who was told by Ren that that ice power was probably his semblance.

"OH HOW ORIGINAL! Just because my name is "FRIEZA" my special power just HAPPENS TO BE ICE MANIPULATION! WHAT KIND OF IDIOT THINKS THATS CLEVER?!" Yelled Frieza waving his fist in the air.

"If your done with your little hissy fit we should get this over with." Said Broly as Frieza growled at him.

"Guys? That thing is circling back! What are we gonna do?" Said Jaune pointing at the giant dark bird circling them.

"Look, there's no sense in dilly-dallying. Our objective is right in front of us." Said Weiss.

"That's putting it lightly." Commented Cell.

"She's right. Our mission is to grab an artifact and make it back to the Cliffs. There's no point in

fighting these things." Said Ruby.

"Run and live - that's an idea I can get behind!" Said Jaune.

"So why are we just standing around? Let's take the damned things and get out of here already!" Yelled Broly as he walked over to the Temple and picked out a piece and the rest followed along taking pieces of their own. The ice began to crack where the Death Stalker was frozen and started to struggle cracking the ice.

"Time we left!" Yelled Ren as everyone started to follow Ruby except for Yang who was just standing there smiling. Blake stopped next to Yang as she said.

"What is it?"

"Nothing..." Responded Yang as she and Blake dashed off to catch up with the rest of the group.


As the group ran they exited the forest and ran into another larger abandoned structure. Running behind pillars to take cover from the attacks of the Nevermore. The Nevermore then perched itself on top of the tower of the structure and begins to caw.

"Well, that's just GREAT!" Said Yang hiding behind a pillar as the Death Stalker from earlier busted in through the trees.

"Oh man run!" Yelled Jaune as he and Pyrrha ran away.

"Hey Buu! I think I saw some candy out in the field over there!" Said Cell pointing at the grassy field in between the two lines of pillars. "OH BOY! OH BOY!" Said Buu as he ran out into the field along with Nora looking for the non-existent candy on the ground and drawing the Nevermore's attention away from the rest of the gang.

"Nora distract it!" Yelled Ren as Nora obliged and transformed her hammer into a grenade launcher launching two shots at the huge flying bird causing it to fly away.

"Wait! I thought you said there was candy over here!" Yelled Buu angrily as he pulled two razor sharp giant feathers out of his back, threw them on the ground, and easily regenerated from his wounds. Frieza thought quickly "Ummm- BUU! That giant chicken stole your candy! If you want it back you'll have to let Broly throw you up into the air at that overgrown pidgin!" Yelled Frieza.

"Whatever it takes to get my candy back!" Yelled Buu. "I'm not listening to you lizard!" Yelled Broly. "Just do what I say!" Yelled Frieza. "Fine whatever!" Yelled Back Broly as he and Buu ran into positions as Weiss used her summoning ability to propel Nora into the air at the giant Nevermore. "What are you doing?" Asked Cell.

"Coming up with a plan insect! If you can't come up with any yourself do as I say!" Yelled Frieza.

"... Just make sure you thought this through!" Yelled Cell as he ran into battle as well. The Death Stalker tried to go after Nora but was stopped by Ren and Blake who striked the creature slowing it down and running away to the abandoned structure with the rest of the group. As the groups were running Broly grabbed Buu and threw him into the air at the Nevermore with Buu's pink chainsaw out and reved it while smiling and flying through the air. Buu grabbed ahold of the birds wing to prevent him from falling as he pulled himself up on the birds back as he laughed once more, reved his chainsaw and started cutting into the birds back. The Nevermore however did a barrel roll causing Buu and his chainsaw to fall of landing on a bridge of the structure with the rest of the group already being there to fight off the giant scorpion and run at the same time.

As the ex-villains ran across as well Broly grabbed the flattened Buu by the leg and ran bringing him along. "Tell me Frieza! Was THIS even close to what you plan was supposed to be!?" Asked Cell in annoyance.

"I'm still thinking my plan through!"

"You never thought it through?!"

"I may have not thought it through." Said Frieza as the huge Nevermore circled back and literally

flew through the bridge shattering it into pieces. Nora, Ruby, Jaune, Frieza, and Buu we're stranded on the side of the bridge near the tower. While Broly, Pyrrha, and Blake were on the other side of the broken bridge fighting the giant scorpion.

"Man we gotta get over there! They need our help!" Yelled Jaune.

"Let's do this!" Yelled Nora running up beside Jaune with her weapon.

"Yeah but... I can't make that Jump! Man I wish I could fly!" Said Jaune.

"Wish granted!" Said Frieza as he kicked Jaune and Nora in the rear ends causing them to fly through the air. Nora was laughing while riding her hammer and Jaune was flying through the air screaming. Jaune and Nora landed on the other side with Nora using her hammer to smash the Death Stalker in the head, it wasn't very effective as the Death Stalker tried to sting Nora but instead pushed her back in turn, knocking Blake over the side. But luckily Blake used her weapon to swing from the side of the structure and swung her way to the flying Nevermore slashing it a few times with her blade and running down its back and slicing it with her weapon as she jumped off and landed on the castle where Cell, Ruby, Weiss, and Yang were standing.

"It's tougher than it looks!" Said Blake.

"Then let's hit it with everything we got!" Said Yang reading her gauntlets. Cell just laughed to

himself as the girls turned their heads to look at him.

"Hmhmhmhm... Ladies, you are looking at the perfect life form, I can exterminate this overgrown pigeon myself." Said Cell taking out his two Kanpekina Dezain in their pistol modes as he jumped off the structure and made his way to a higher part of the structure. The Nevermore began to turn around as it made its way back to the girls doing what Yang said and attacking the bird with everything they got. The Nevermore either tanked or dodged all the blows as it flew through the part of the structure that the girls were standing on shattering it with the girls finding more stable parts of the tower. But coming out of nowhere Cell came flying in with his Faunus bug wings as he started to blitz the giant dark bird with bullets and slashes all around its head. All that was left was for Cell to stick his sword in its head finally killing the creature but, the Nevermore knocked him back so far that he went flying on the outer bounds of the structure where he landed hard. And as if like magic Buu came flying in from the sky too landing next too Cell with his face implanted in the ground.

"Nevermore?" Asked Cell.

"Scorpion." Muttered Buu spitting the dirt out of his mouth that into it from making a crash landing. As Buu and Cell both picked themselves up Broly came in from around the corner carrying his Satsugai Kikai in its hammer mode running over to the other two ex-villains asking.

"What the hell are you two doing out here?!"

"We were just knocked over here by-"

"There you idiots are! What the hell are you doing over here?!" Yelled Frieza hovering down from the air angry.

"We-" Buu wasn't able to finish.

"You know what I don't want to know! Let's just back before- ah- ah- ah- ah." Frieza stopped in his sentence as she started stuttering looking up behind Cell and Buu. Even Broly was looking up with a concerned look. Cell and Broly were confused as they turned around to see what all the fuss was about. And what they saw was understandable why Frieza and Broly looked concerned.

As Buu and Cell turned around they saw a HUGE Grimm centipede about the same size as 17 buses put together hovering over them. Looking down at them with its 9 glowing red eyes. "... Wh-What the hell is that thing?!" Asked Buu.

"Looks like a giant centipede." Said Broly.

"I think we just f***ing hit space Mexico." Commented Frieza. As Frieza said that last part the creature had enough with just staring at its meal as it dove its head at the group. But the group all jumped out of the way as the creature borrowed into the ground until all that was left was a huge hole in the ground.

"Looks like it can tunnel through the Earth! Said Cell looking down in the dark hole.

"SHIT! How the hell are we going to beat something that big?!" Yelled Buu.

"Wait for it to come back out and kill it when it does!" Said Broly. Right after Broly said this the ground started to shake as the huge Grimm centipede popped back out and attacked the Group once again but this time the group was ready with all their weapons out. Ready to fight the monster. Each one of them jumped at the Centipede's head and the rest of its body trying to slash it, crush it, or blow it up but no matter what they did they were simply knocked back by the huge beast like annoying insects.

"Shit! It's armor is too thick!" Yelled Frieza holding his sniper sword in its gun mode.

"F*** the armor! Go for the eyes!" Yelled Cell as he turned his weapon into its sword mode and threw it at the Centipede in the eye like a spear. Cell quickly jumped near the creature and retrieved his blade as he quickly used it to slash at the Centipede's mouth were there was very little armor then jumped out of the way.

"Damn it this thing is tough! Does anyone have a plan!?" Asked Frieza.

"I have one, I figured out how to use ki in this body so I can use ki attacks. But because of how weak this body is I will require some time to charge it. You need to distract it!" Said Broly as he started charging his ki blast.

"That doesn't seem to tough-" Cell was interrupted.

"For five minutes, and considering how badly it beat our asses after we joined our power... Meh, you'll do fine." Said Broly as the group of ex-villains looked back at Broly with faces of disbelief.

"Are-... Are you f***ing kiddin- AH!" Buu wasn't able to finish as the Centipede charged at them once again, throwing them into trees, smashing them into the ground, and all kinds of other horrible stuff. All the while Broly was standing there turned golden haired as he sung in his head.

'~Da da dadada, da da da da, da dadadadada Chargin' my attack.~'

"FOR THE LOVE OF GOD JUST FIRE THE DAMN THING ALREADY!" Yelled Frieza bruised and beaten on the ground. Broly screamed as he fired the ki blast straight at the monster hitting it and surrounding the area with a large amount of dust.

"Did-... Did we get it?" Asked Buu.

"Buu... Was there ever a situation where something was blasted with an energy attack with the area around them being covered in dust with them ACTUALLY being eliminated?" Asked Cell.

"... I was trying to be optimistic." Said Buu.

"Your a moron!" Said Broly.

"Your all wrong! We're dead!" Said Frieza as the centipede jumped out of the smoke and got ahold of Frieza in its mouth and raised itself up. Frieza could still be seen in the colossal centipede's mouth holding it open and trying his best not to be swallowed. But unfortunately Frieza gets swallowed by the giant centipede. If the centipede could laugh at that point it would've, and the rest of the ex-villains knew so as well.

"Well Frieza just got eaten." Said Cell looking over at Buu and Broly.

"What now?" Asked Cell.

"OH OH OH!" Said Buu raising his hand up in the air like a kid in a classroom.

"Yeah?"

"Scream and run?" Said Buu.

"Where did your pride and dignity go?" Asked Broly.

"The second I was brought back to life in a stinking human body!" Yelled Buu. The centipede was done putting up with their stupidity now! The titanic centipede looked down upon its new prey as it lunged down and was about to take them all out with one bite but... It felt like there was a horrible cramp in its stomach. Then another terrible cramp, as it felt like something was beating on the walls of its stomach. It was so unbelievably painful as the pain went away, it was now numb and a little cold... Oh no.

The centipede screamed out in pain as its body started to freeze, originating at it's stomach area and moving up to its tail and head. As it made its final screams it was completely frozen solid. The other ex-villains stood there staring at the frozen centipede until.

(BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!)

Shots rang out at the frozen mouth and head of the centipede was blasted into pieces as a hand reached out and grabbed the sides of the shattered head and pulled himself out, it was Frieza alright using his sniper sword to blast his way out of the frozen Grimm. As he climbed his way out he said as he was panting.

"*Pant* *Pant* *Pant*... That's the most wretched thing... *Pant* *Pant* I have ever experienced *Pant* *Pant* In my life..." Said Frieza traumatized by the experience. Frieza made his way down as he walked up to the rest of his group.

"So... Don't wanna talk about it?" Asked Cell.

"Shut up! Just... Shut up! Lets just go back and see if the others made it or not... *Shutter*" Said Frieza as him and the group walked back near the entrance of the abandoned castle. As they made it to the bridge they looked up the mountain as they saw Ruby standing there with her huge scythe in her hands and what looked like to be the headless body of the Nevermore fall from the mountain... Did I mention it was headless?

"Well... I believe that answers that question." Said Cell with a smile on his face as he and the others looked on at the aftermath of a spectacle.


Amphitheater: Later that Day

"Russel Thrush. Cardin Winchester. Dove Bronzewing. Sky Lark. The four of you retrieved the black bishop pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team CRDL, led by... Cardin Winchester!" Said Ozpin as the audience cheered and gave a round of applause.

"Jaune Arc. Lie Ren. Pyrrha Nikos. Nora Valkyrie. The four of you retrieved the white rook pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team JNPR." Said Ozpin with Nora laughing and hugging Ren.

"Led by... Jaune Arc!" Said Ozpin.

"Huh? L-Led by...?" Asked Jaune unsure.

"Congratulations, young man." Congratulated Ozpin. A grinning Pyrrha offers a friendly shoulder bump to Jaune, but her "fine leader" is knocked over and falls to his butt in front of the laughing audience.

"Blake Belladonna. Ruby Rose. Weiss Schnee. Yang Xiao Long. The four of you retrieved the white knight pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team RWBY. Led by... Ruby Rose!" Announced Ozpin as the audience cheers. Weiss looks to her right surprised, where Ruby is obviously in shock as Yang goes over to hug her sister as she said.

"I'm so proud of you!"

"And Finally. Cell Perfect. Frieza Cold. Buu Majin. Broly Shimada. The four of you received the red king pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team FCBB. Led by... Frieza Cold!" Announced Ozpin as the rest of the ex-villains looked over at Frieza who was smirking the whole time with the audience cheering.

"It looks like things are shaping up to be an... interesting year." Said Ozpin.


Warehouse in Vale:

Roman Torchwick is getting a call on his phone. The muffled conversation ends, and Roman angrily slams the phone down, sighing. He holds a cigar to his mouth and puts his symbolized lighter to the end, just as a man in a gray mask and black hood comes with a trolley. Roman holds out a collection of Lien, which he places on the table and the man takes.

"Open it. " Said Torchwick as the White Fang member behind him opens up a crate revealing a large amount of Dust crystals of varying colors - orange, blue, white, red, green, cyan, gold, yellow, and more. Roman picks up a blue gem in his hand and looks at the loot. Roman looks back up at the map on the wall of Vale as he says.

"We're gonna need more men... " Said Roman staring at the map.

A/N: If your wondering what the giant Grimm centipede is or looks like just search for 'RWBY Ground Dweller' and you'll know what it looks like.
