Act 2: Initiation of power
Wash and Violet where on the landing area for airships waiting for A) the first years. B) the rest of them. And C) Ozpin. They where having a talk in usual RvB fashion. "So your armor is not full but built enough to where it doesn't require the rest of the pieces?" Asked wash.
"Yep, and it even collapses for convenience." Said Violet. He was wearing his armor but the upper arms and legs where missing. How the shield worked like that confused Wash but he accepted it since this was the kid who made his own armor by himself. "By the way, you remember doc right?" He asked with his helmet off. Wash could see the concerned look he had.
"Who's doc again?" Said Wash unaware that he was right behind him.
"What? Y-you forgot about me? But I thought we where friends!" Said doc getting extremely upset.
"Someone's in trouble..." Mumbled Violet as Wash started.
"Doc, when did you get here? How are you here?" Said Wash.
"I've been here since Grif threw that cube at me!" Yelled doc.
"Huh, guess we just never noticed you where gone. Funny right?" Said Wash.
Doc was silent... Then Tucker came up to them. "Sup assholes and when did doc get here?" He said
Doc broke into a small laughter which slowly got louder and a hole lot more menacing until he began to sound like O'mally. "You fools!" Said Doc with his new split personality which basically copied the omega AI. "You will all... Taste... OBLIVION!!!" He yelled. He then launched at tucker, tackling him to the ground.
"Take this!"
"Ow!"
"And that!"
"Ow!"
"And some of these!"
"Ow!"
Well that guy just got the shit handed to him... Thought Violet. "Ok Doc that's enough." He said. Doc/O'mally didn't stop. In retaliation Violet pulled out his sword and activated it. The blade passed by Doc's helmet to where he fell back out of shock, the purple blade glisening in the sun. "You remember my blade right? Please don't make me use it"
"U-U-Understood..." Said Doc panicked. "But I won't be stopped that easily!" Said O'mally as he stood up. Violet helped Tucker up as he groaned in pain. Violet pulled out his scroll to open a message from Oz.
"Hey Wash, you remember Maine right?" Asked Violet.
"Yes? What about him?" Said wash.
"Where did he go?"
"We launched him off a cliff tied to a warthog."
"Ah ok." Said Violet. "Hey look, the airship is coming in." He said as he pointed to the massive ship.
"Now that's amazing for something that doesn't involve war" said Tucker.
"Looks like covenant, except for the colors..." Said O'mally. "Come to think of it, this body looks like-"
"Ok that's enough Doc" said Wash. The ship had landed and the Reds and Blues where out to see their new "friends". All of the students where astonished at the soldiers while they where amazed with some of the students creative weapons. "So why did you ask about Maine?"
"Well..." Violet starts. They all hear a low growl as something began to shimmer in front of them.
"Um..." Grif started. "That isn't good." Sarge finished. The shimmer stopped to reveal the white soldier, but he wasn't pissed. He pulled out a scroll and all the soldiers went for their weapons. He then typed something into it.
"If you think I'm hostile, your wrong." Said the scroll in his hands. The soldiers didn't let lose. He then typed more into it. "My judgement was clouded by Sigma and I regret what I did. I only wish to make it right by helping in anyway I can, that and I had help with my anger issues so that I won't kill you on sight. Besides, my quest for power was achieved when a man named Qrow helped with my AI problem. Apparently he has two nieces that come here. He asked me to keep an eye on them in return." All of the soldiers lowered their weapons very slowly.
"How are you here? Asked Simmons.
"Not important, what is important is how much I want to make up my mistake for you all." He said through the scroll.
"And I will be happy to see all of you get along for the well being of the students." Said Oz as he stepped up to beside Maine. "All of you working together like you do in your story will teach these kids the importance of working together. Now if we may all go to the auditorium for my 'welcome to beacon' speech... It's time we got you all settled with the other students."
Beacon: temporary dorm: 8:17pm
"Well time to get introduced." Said Violet as he walked up to a group of kids. A red haired kid in rose pajamas looked at him and walked up to him. He turns to Felix. "Never mind bad idea lets go."
"Don't be a wimp. She looks your age." Said Felix
"Fine." He says to him. He then turns to the girl. All the Reds and Blues where getting acquainted with the students, caboose really just standing still and nodding. Maine just sat in the corner thinking of his feelings and what he did. Seeing Wash again must of taken a toll on his mental state, feeling guilty for what he did.
"Who's this sis?" Said a blonde girl who stood over her sister.
"Sorry, kinda spaced out." Said Violet. "My name is Violet Rose, and I'm adopted so I don't know where the 'rose' comes from."
"Nedo!" Said the blonde. "The name is Yang."
"Yin yang?" Said Violet. They all chuckle at this.
"Funny kid. Felix." He said
"I guess I'm next." Said the girl." My name is Ruby Rose."
Violet goes to shake her hand." Well is nice to meet you-" he stopped as soon as he touched her hand. And just like that, he dropped to the floor.
Unknown place...
Where the hell am I thought Violet. He was on a cliff with snow everywhere, a gravestone in front of him. He walked up to the gravestone. On it said the words And thus I scatter with a design of a rose on it. He then heard a snap to turn around and see a woman in a white hood looking at him. "Who are you?" He asked. She said nothing then said "my dear Violet..." The name rang in his head till it began to sound like Washington's voice.
"Violet?!" He said as Violet woke. He was on the ground with everyone beside him, Ruby and Yang looking especially concerned.
"I'm fine" he said as he stood up. All of the let out a sigh of relief.
"What happened?" Asked Tucker.
"I don't know...I went to shake Ruby's hand then all of a sudden I'm on a cliff..." He stopped. They could tell he didn't want to talk about it.
"Violet... I think I know what it is." Said Maine through his scroll.
"Then let's talk in private, please." Said Violet. They walked out of the room to talk.
"Is he ok?" Asked Jaune who talked to Wash about motion sickness.
"I don't know... But I think it has something to do with cookies." Stated Caboose.
"As if..." Said a white haired girl.
About 40 minutes later and all of them are still awake worrying about Violets mental state. Maine and him then come in to see all of them laying down trying to sleep. He had collapsed his armor to small bands (similar to ember celica from the yellow trailer) and a thin harness like chest piece. He then lied down next to Wash and waited a minute before whispering " did you know?". Wash thought about it then not knowing what he meant he said "no". They eventually fell asleep ready for tomorrow.
The next day: edge of the emerald forest.
Oz had explained what we where doing and what will happen to all of us for the next 4 years. All of them where lined up on the pads, Reds and Blues included. Oz finished explaining and Jaune had questions. "What is a landing strategy?" Wash asked Ruby literally before she was launched. "Oh." Jaune was then launched and Oz talked to them.
"You ten except for Violet will remain in your teams but your partners will be who you make eye contact with first. That person must be on your team though, just to avoid problems. Now good luck with this." He finished
"I'll be connected to your com's so if your in a pickle just let me know and I'll find you." Said Violet looking at them. They all nod and Grif starts to panic. "Wait are we going to be falling?!"
"Yes" confirmed Oz. "However you all have parachutes because of your military style of training."
The plates start clicking. "What about Violet?" Asked Wash.
"I'm trained and have a built in jet pack." he said.
The plates then launch all of them signaling that the conversation ended.
"Well that went well, especially for the white one. His armor wheighs about a full ton." Said Glynda as they watched all the students and soldiers free fall into the forest.
To be continued...
