RWBY: A Lorekeeper's Adventure
*OPENING*
(Instrumental) (The scene starts with Zinnia putting on her sandals and cape while being surrounded with her dragon Pokémon with her Whismur beside her; she then looks at the camera with a smile. Then the images of Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang flashed through the screen before being replaced with Groudon and Kyogre leaping past each other with Rayquasa staring at the screen before charging forward.)
Hey! Come on wake up the sun is shining on this brand new day
(The scenery changes to Beacon Academy with Ruby running to pick up her Kabuto along with her team and Zinnia before everyone looked at the sunrise with awe.)
(Go out charging fast like a volt tackle)
(The scene then shifts to Team JNPR with Jaune holding his Teddiursa with a look of glee and Pyrrha who was sparring with her Metang behind them then to Ren who was meditating with his Accelgor and finally Nora who was running with her Tynamo.)
Go! No need to worry I promise you that I will be okay
(Emerald and Mercury along with Roman and Neo were conversing with each other before turning to a shadowed figure.)
(Keep moving forward and your break the mold)
(Zinnia was being followed by an angry Team CRDL before turning and casually throwing out her Goodra who comically shocked them with a thunderbolt)
Through the land and sea and sky we go on fighting till the end no matter what the trial there's something we all know that the bonds of our friendship cannot bend
(Now we see Ruby in a cave sitting with a sad look on her face with Zinnia standing in front of her with her own sorrowful look; two shadowy figures were shown one was a large dragon with soul piercing red eyes and the other was human with burning amber eyes that gave off some flames. Zinnia then turned and walked away. Ruby quickly got up and reached out desperately for her, but when she made contact Zinnia was nothing more than ashes. A tear ran down from silver eye.)
I'll never let you go
(When it landed a white glow then shone from where it landed)
(Whoa, whoa, whoa Yeah!)
(The light manifested itself around Ruby giving her an increased power as her silver eyes glowed with a burning sensation within.)
XYZ! There is no foe too strong for me and you
(Ruby with her Crescent Rose charged and clashed with the same woman Ruby fought against before. The two then released each other before running around the battlefield.)
XYZ! Keep on fighting and we will Breakthrough!
(Ruby jumped towards the air before quickly swinging her weapon releasing a silver wave of energy towards her opponent.)
XYZ! The roaring skies above are crashing down and coming into view
(The woman quickly put up her weapons to defend herself just as the energy wave hit causing a small explosion. Ruby then gave a loud shout as she came down with her scythe and struck the woman with everything she had causing a tremendous blast to engulf the field they were in.)
XYZ! You must believe there is no dream to small
(Now the scene shows some innocent Pokémon and people were fleeing in terror as they were being shot at by fire. They ran past Team RWBY and JNPR who were instead standing there looking at their opponents with anger.)
XYZ! I know that I gotta catch em all
(The camera now shows the mystery woman standing atop a rock pillar with Emerald, Mercury, and Roman and Neo standing on lower reaching rocks before Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre burst from magma and water in front of them glaring down their opponents.)
XYZ! We will stand side by side like a flash fire burn and never fall Yeah!
(Team RWBY then charged forward with some of their Pokémon Mega-evolving in the process before Rayquasa burst from the ground with a rainbow multi colored glow surrounding its body as the clouds surrounding it dissipated.)
Go raise both your hands high
(Thunderbolts for you and I)
(The scene is now with Professor Ozpin and the Beacon Academy staff who were taking care of their Pokémon before Ozpin turned and looked at the camera)
Yeah break through the mist and rise on up to follow your dreams and then reach out to the sky!
(A Poké ball fell from the sky and landed onto Zinnia's palm who caught it as she looked at the camera with a smile; then the members of Team RWBY and JNPR appeared behind her accompanied by their Pokémon all of whom looked at the camera with smiles of their own as the title appeared on screen.)
A few days had passed since the Agra family had let Zinnia and her dragon Pokemon stay at her home, the children right at this moment were playing with Goodra and Noivern while Tyrantrum, Altaria, Salamence and Aster were still with Zinnia who was watching the kids with a smile; it has been awhile since the last time she took the time to get to know people in this way.
Speaking of which she had also taken the liberty to learn of where she was. The land or rather kingdom was called 'Vale' and it was a place of sanctuary for people from the soulless black animals that Zinnia fought when she arrived which were called Grimm.
The people who had animalistic traits were known as Faunus and much to Zinnia's disgust were treated very poorly by the people which would explain what happened to Damion and Clara just the other day. And finally some of the people here in the land were trained to be defenders for everyone else who were known as Huntsman or Huntresses.
It was...a lot to take in that was for sure. One moment she was on her way for an overdue meeting with her grandmother and the next she was thrusted in a world that seemed like it was from a fairy tale. Of course with all this in her mind she still had many questions in her mind such as: How did she arrive here, why did she end up in Remnant of all places and most importantly how would she get back?
"Zinnia are you alright?" Zinnia nearly jumped as she turned to Ashley though she politely referred her as Ms. Agra. She gave a small smile.
"Oh I'm fine Ms. Agra just...lost in thought I guess." The two went silent for a moment.
"Are you thinking about your home?" Ashley and her family was informed of Zinnia's unfortunate disposition. She simply nodded with a downcast expression on her face.
"Yeah...But I guess I can't worry too much. After all if I managed to get here then I can get back...somehow. I just need to find out how." She then turned to where the children were playing, seeing her Pokemon enjoy themselves like this brings back memories of her childhood. "Though I think leaving is gonna be the hard part"
Then Thane or "Mr. Agra" came to her with a middle aged man and a blonde woman coming from beside him. Thane then spoke up "*Ahem* Zinnia I would like you to meet an old family friend Professor Ozpin and his staff member Glynda Goodwitch" he gestured to the adults alongside him with Zinnia looking at them in slight suspicion...especially the grey haired man who was staring at her intently.
"Alright...why are you looking at me like that?" Zinnia asked her as well as the gazes of her three Pokemon shifted on Ozpin.
"My apologies, but understand that seeing someone with three dragon-like animals at her side that are not tearing at their head like a Grimm would is a very rare sight in this land." Ozpin stated "Then again seeing these new animals at all is a rare sight and it is also the reason I'm here." Zinnia just narrowed her eyes.
"Perhaps we could take this discussion inside Ms. Higana?" Zinnia simply turned and returned her three Pokemon to their poke balls while leaving Noivern and Goodra out to play with the kids. She then went into the house with Ozpin and Glynda.
After getting comfortable and a few moments of silence Professor Ozpin then spoke up "So then Ms. Higana perhaps may I start with a "how are you today?"" Zinnia simply stayed silent before speaking up "If you include this very moment then I don't know how to feel" Ozpin sighed as he put down his cup on the table in front of them.
"Ms. Higana, I can see that you are...quite cautious of us" Ozpin noted as he looked at Zinnia with a serious look which she maintained. "Oh what was your first clue?" she asked sarcastically
"Now look here young lady!" Glynda finally snapped "Do you realize what your actions could have done?!" Zinnia simply shrugged
"Which one? The one where my Pokemon took down Grimm from the forest or the one where I saved two innocent kids from thugs?" Glynda glared at her
"I believe you know which one I'm talking about and I hope you know the consequences of your actions" Zinnia simply shrugged
"Nothing new to me." Ozpin looked at her "I see..." He then put had his hands in front of his face like a principle from a school would do.
"Ms. Higana I simply wish for you to hear my request" he said politely.
Zinnia rolled her eyes in an annoyed way, but stayed nonetheless "...What is it?" she asked.
"I wish for you to be apart of our Beacon Academy" This got Zinnia's attention.
"...um..what?" she semi asked
"I wish for you to assist our staff and teach us about these "Pokemon" as you call them."
"Why me?" Zinnia asked still a bit surprised at Ozpin's request.
"Because frankly you seem to know much more about them then we do since you come from the same place as they are So it only makes sense you would be the one to teach all of us about them."
Zinnia was silent as her eyes went to the floor, debating; according to the Agra family Pokemon had been appearing only recently in Remnant and she knew about Huntsman and Huntresses, if Pokemon were ever mistaken for Grimm or turned hostile enough, Zinnia grimaced at the thought of Pokemon dying for the overwhelming factor of the unknown. So she made her choice.
"...Fine, where do I sign up."
Author's notes: First off sorry for updating so late, secondly I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Zinnia is some who is depicted as rather...childlike and upbeat in the games, though she seems to have a low opinion of people of authority aka. Steven Stone, the staff of the Mossdeep Space Center. etc and I am no doubt she would know that Ozpin and Glynda would be people of authority simply by appearance. So about that childlike attitude of hers, I simply think its something she does to lower the guards of the people she meets to make her job of stealing keystones easier, I mean she literally snatches a keystone from Matt in Alpha Sapphire y'know that REALLY buff guy who prides prides himself with his strength. In the same game Zinnia shows that she could be serious in the right situations so there you go. To those who are ticked of at my late update time, well...no need to throw a Tyrantrum ;)
