AN: I do not own RWBY or any Roosterteeth assets. So I decided to draw for my self what Rusts rifle looks like. I can't really get the image up but it's a cross between Halos type 31 needle rifle and the battle rifle. It isn't painted due to it being a prototype weapon. So it's main colour is silver with some rust on the rifle and scope. Acirta BlackSteel was created as more of a reason for Rust to even talk to Ozpins group. Mainly because Rust doesn't care much about others unless he calls them friend. Then he dose everything in his power to help. Even if that means stepping out of his comfort zone.
3 months before classes at beacon start.
The forest was in chaos there was no animals within view only the smell of fires and the sounds of bones breaking and the burning flesh. These sound originate from none other then Rust and Acirta. Swinging her hammer in a upwards motion she causes a massive Ursa to lose its balance. Normally it would have regained its balance that is if its rear legs didn't get turned into ash. Acirta lifts her hammer and brings her hammer down on its head. Using her semblance she increases the amount of gravity making her hit do fatal damage to the Ursa's head.
When they finally killed the last of the Grimm Rust detects a large anomaly to the east of there position. They walk about fifty meters before Rust activates his semblance. Like they practiced many times before Acirta knew better then to fallow Rust. Because the oblivious reason is that she can't see him.
Rust moves only twenty feet before he crouches and sees a three on one fight. The victim looked to be in her twenties and was being held down by two assailants a male and a female with a third walking toward her. Rust didn't wasted anytime he immediately aimed Edan at the thirds assailants who rust was able to confirm that is was a she.
Rust was impressed by her reflexes but he didn't give her time to recover. The other two assailants rushed Rust only to be hit by Acirta's hammer. The third as salient fired three arrows at Rust. He managed to avoid the first two but the third hit min in the chest just missing his synthetic heart. Rust was thankful he didn't feel pain. The assailants had to make a fast retreat as a third individual joins the fray.
Qrow was thankful that Rust saved the maiden from her attackers. He could imagine the horrors they had planned for her. He walks over to Amber and offers her a hand to help her up. Only for rust to land on top of her Taking a arrow that was meant for ambers head. He watched as Rust eyes flicker he looked into Rusts eyes he could tell he was heavily damaged. He saw a girl looked like she was 17 years old came rushing towards Rust.
"Rust are you ok!?" She said in a worried tone.
"I am fine my power core is undamaged and my synthetic muscles are starting to repair the damage." He stated calming the worried teenager.
"Thank you for saving me." says the fall maiden. Who was now standing up with some help from Qrow.
"It was nothing I was simply doing what I was designed for." He said with a smile.
"Ok let's get you to vale. Thanks for the help I can handle it from here." Qrow said turning to leave.
Rust puts his hand on his shoulder. "It would be wiser if I escorted her as well the three of us would be able to defend her more efficiently."
Acirta walked up to the group. "Hello I'm Acirta and yes Rust is right it would be better to travel together." She says. In a joyful tone.
"So Rust this is the kid you adopted." Snickered Qrow seeing the girl.
"How do you know Rust Qrow?" She asks
"He spied on us by the sound of it. No wonder you got here so quickly." Answered Rust with some venom in the last part.
"Wow you are so smart." Said the sarcastic Qrow .
"Lets just get to vale." Said The maiden worried that their bickering would literally be the death of her.
The rest of the journey was uneventful. The maiden fainted Qrow and Rust made a stretcher to carry her on. Only the Grimm came out of the forest which Acirta started playing baseball with the Grimm. Qrow was really curious about how she could hit the Grimm so hard. She sent them flying and the ones that didn't fly got obliterated by the hammer. Rust was just watching not even worried about the girls safety. To be fair neither was he. Qrow wanted to start a bet with Rust on how far the Grimm would go. But he had a feeling Rust would always the exact answer. When they reached vale they were greeted by a team of huntsmen who quickly escorted them to beacon.
Sometime later.
From his office, Ozpin could see the beacons medical staff already escorting the maiden to the medical ward. It was a good thing that Classes did start for a few months. Because the sight of a android would draw lots of unneeded attentions to the maiden. He could see a girl clad in black armour walking beside the android. Turning towards his desk he activates the intercom.
"Glynda would you be a dear and have Qrow and his 'guests' come up to my office please." He spoke in to the mic.
Knowing Glynda she would do as asked. So he sits down and waits for them to arrive. A few minutes then he heard the elevator ding. Stepping out was the android before in all its glory. He smiled at how the young girl tried to swarm him trying to get a good look at the hole in it chest.
"Acirta I'm fine we can fix it later." It stated
"Fine but don't ever scare me like that Rust." Said the girl identified as Acirta.
"If your finished with your discussion we can get down to business." Said the amused headmaster.
"Ok so what did you want to discuss?" Asked Rust.
"Well I wanted to give both of you a chance to enter beacon." Ozpin stated bluntly
Acirtas face lit up with joy at the prospect of going to beacon. Rust on the other hand appeared to not like the idea. He didn't seem comfortable in the room to begin with.
"Thats a yes for me and a no for Rust over there." Answered Acirta while jerking a finger at Rust.
"I will help around the academy if need be." He said then he continued. "After all that women's assailants may try to attack her again."
Ozpin couldn't deny that what he said wasn't true. He knew better then to just throw his offer out the window. "So how exactly would you help this institution?" He inquired of the android.
"I could work with Qrow or guard that women." He was answered
"You'll work with Qrow. We can take care for the women she safe here. But is there anything you'd need?" He asked curious of Rusts answer.
"All I need is enough to buy a regular supply of fire dusk for Edan." Stated Rust.
"And for you miss?" Asked Ozpin while looking at Acirta
"My full name would be Acirta BlackSteel." She answered.
Extending a hand to the girl. "welcome to beacon." He said with a smile.
He could see the excitement in her eyes. He would give her a speech on how the road ahead would be treacherous. But he needed to talk to Rust in private. "Glynda cloud you give miss BlackSteel a tour on the academy while I discuss some important details with her guardian." He commanded
Rust turns to make sure she fine with that but was comforted to see how happy she was about attending Beacon. When they finally exited the room Rust turned back and waited for Ozpins questions.
"Rust these forms are her applications. Do you have any thing you can use as if for her?" Inquired Ozpin.
After a long period of filling out the forms he was finished. Though he swore he saw questions that shouldn't been a application. Regardless he answered all of the questions. He watches the headmaster walk to a machine and pulled out two small cards out of it. Ozpin walked towards Rust and handed him the first one which turned out to be Acirtas student i.d. The second card had Rusts name on it. His full name which was Rust Wolf. The card showed that Rust had the occupation of a hunts….men.
"The questions that were hidden in the application were for this years graduation exam." Said the headmaster with a smirk.
"And how did I do?" Asking with a slight distrust of Ozpin.
"Well it says that you passed with flying colours except In some the psychological questions on morality, Your score there as a tad below average."
Rust places the two ID cards in between his arm and the strap that holds the knifes sheath on his arm. He could tell he had ulterior motives into making him a huntsmen. But he couldn't prove anything. He gets up and leaves the room leaving The room to Ozpin and the stack of applications he had to go through.
Rust found Acirta in the sparring room with Glynda Goodwitch. She was in the process of explaining how it works to the girl. Rust walks up and see Glynda open her scroll evidently to inform her of making Rust a huntsmen.
"Oz why do you do these things first it was ruby. Now you make a robot into a huntsmen." She carelessly says out loud.
"I am not a robot I am a android." Said the slightly irritated Android.
Glynda was surprised at how silent the android was. Ever since she started teaching she always could predict when someone approached her. "Mr. Wolf sorry I didn't see you there I meant nothing offensive by it." She said sheepishly.
"Wait professor Ozpin made Rust a huntsmen No Fair!" She said feeling that Rust cheated some how.
"Well he did hide the finale exam in the application form." Rust said in his defence.
A man wearing suit pants and a suit shirt that was tucked in half way and a loose fitting tepid came into the roof buzzing with energy. He speed walked up to Glynda.
"Glynda where is this that Ozpin informed us about." He asked.
The professor sighs and gestures toward Rust. "Doctor Oobleck this is Rust wolf our new security detail."
Oobleck looks at Rust and stops right in front of the android. "Yes I see why our good headmaster would want him as security." Stated Oobleck
"I don't see why he's probably unskilled and has no interesting stories to tell." Said another man who joined the conversation.
Rust turns to see a grey haired man with a round belly. "Did you fight a two hundred year old Ursa with only a knife?" Asked Rust
"I remembered that fight you just started running around it like a lunatic." Interjected Acirta.
The man looked at the unamused Rust and laughed. "I am professor Port. It is good to meet you Mr. Wolf." He said extending a hand.
Accepting Ports extended hand he says. "It will be interesting to work with you men and women."
Meanwhile
Blake had a choice to make leave Adam or stay with him. "Adam please don't do this they don't have to die!" She yelled
"They took everything from us of course they have to." He stated more calmly
"But Adam he need to be better then them we can't lower ours selfs to the their standards!" She expressed with tears.
Adam looked into Blake's pleading eyes. He could see the desperation in them. He could feel the love she has for him. The she did something unexpected she hugged him. She held on to him so tightly that he could feel her heart beat. He wanted to make this moment last forever. But fate would allow him.
"When that android beat you he stood right over you." She revealed to him
"I could see it in his eyes everyone knew he had full control over the situation." She add
"He could have ended you right then and there but he looked at me." She continued
"I don't know why he spared you but I refuse to let you throw your life away for petty vengeance." She said with rivers of tears leaving her eyes.
Taurus was stunned he didn't know what to say. Instead he pulled out of her and cut the trains couplings apart. "Ok my love we can do it your way." Said with a warm smile. He planted a kiss on her forehead. And pulled her close to his chest.
When the remaining train cars came to a complete stop. Taurus turned to the closes man he could see.
"Tell the men to dismantle the bombs. We have better uses for the dust. " he commanded
"And what would that be sir?" The grunt asked
He smiled and said "To build our Faunus brothers and sisters a refuge away from Human oppression."
Soon hearing this a vast majority of the Whitefang were confused at the sudden change of plans but none question it. After all this organization was created to better the Faunus as a whole
"Hey Blake perhaps we could contact that android he could help us a lot." Inquired Adam
Blake chuckled "No you two would probably be at each other's throats."
"You know your probably right." He responded. While putting his arm around her.
Elsewhere in a unknown location
"So your plans were foiled by a machine?" Questioned Salem
"Only set backs I assure you." Humble replied Cinder keeping her face pointing toward the floor
"You are to arrogant to see it. The WhiteFang is being demilitarizing, your chance at great power foil by a walking piece of metal and its hammer wielding side kick." Deadpanned Salem.
"In a years time you will have another opportunity. For now you must regain your strength." Finished Salem. Turning to over look the lands below.
Cinder lifted her head revealing permanent burn marks. No doubt she 'earned' them form a certain metallic being. That droid turned her into a fool. She will destroy it. No matter the cost.
AN: well things are looking up for the WhiteFang but don't worry they are just turning from aggressive to defensive only Adams Taking a page out of Rust book and only attacking if provoked. And we all know that they will be provoked. Instead of give you guys choices just go ahead and tell me what you want to happen.
