Hello everybody! So~ this is part two of the last chapter(sorry about this) and I am feeling pretty good. I see that the poll I mentioned last time has(at the time I'm writing) three votes, leaving Grimm who ate a human human fruit in first(but that's ok I was going to do both, but didn't know which one to do first). As always your opinions are appreciated so leave a review.
I don't own One piece or RWBY?! Ok?, lets begin.
Chapter 7: Team Decisions Pt 2
The self proclaimed "Klabautermann" stood before the three teachers, armed with a hand saw, a hammer, and a determined stare. "Wait wait! Ozpin sent us!" Peach shouted, terrified by the sudden movement of the ship's ropes and of the being before them. The "Faunus" suddenly became confused, and if looked at closely a bit scared. "Ozpin sent you?" Oobleck nodded his head "Yes! My associates and I teach at Beacon, we were sent by Ozpin to help Brook prepare his classroom!" at this the young man seemed to begin to think. "You lot stay here, I'm going to check this out with Brook." "WHERE WOULD WE GO ANYWAY!" the three teachers said with sharks teeth, their anger was replaced with shock as the young man simply turned into fog, and seeped into the lower levels of the ship.
The three teachers just "stood" there quietly, until Peach spoke aloud what they were all thinking "What in the name of the Brothers just happened?!" Port agreed, in his long life filled with many strange(and not exaggerated, some of the shit he's seen can't be made up) adventures nd sights, he had rarely come across a two-trait faunus, much less one with a trait from TWO different animals. And then there was the title the chimera( he couldn't think of any better way to describe it) referred to himself as, Peter knew he had heard it before… "NO?! HE CAN'T BE SERIOUS?!" Port's shouting brought the attention of his colleagues, "Port what's wrong?" Oobleck asked, concerned as he thought his friend was terrified, imagine his surprise when his close friend started to laugh! "Hahaha!….. No wonder he thought we were intruders! Kabautermann's are the spirits of ships! He must've thought we were germs!" Now Oobleck understood who the faunus before them was, but just couldn't believe it. "Are you referring to the old sailor superstition? I thought they were bad omens?" Port shook his head "That's only one interpretation of them, another is that they are friendly spirits who help repair the ships that are loved by their crew, which since we saw the "young man" carrying a toolbox around, suggests that the later is true instead of the former."
"I don't want to interrupt your discussion." Peach said "But when the hell is that spirit coming back?!"
Below Decks
Going Sonny(or simply Sonny) was having a hard time finding Brook, despite being the very embodiment of the ship the two currently resided on, it didn't he knew where everyone was, no matter how many times Luffy suggested it should. Finally he heard a violin coming from the storage areas, where the crew typically stored dry supplies, food(everything but meat that is, they had a vault for that", and treasure, and decided to follow. The sight that greeted him was certainly an…..unexpected one.
There was Brook, dressed in his full Soul King outfit(first post timeskip outfit), violin in one hand, Soul Solid in the other, playing his Lullaby Parry to a small grimm. The grimm was about four feet long and two feet tall. The grimm in question had a slender, furry, feline body and large feathered wings, with a four-crested bone mask, and a white snake for a tail, in short somehow, for some bizarre reason, Brook had captured a young sphinx. Sonny was about to ask Brook what he was doing when he saw a box next to the old skeleton. "Brook is that what I think it is?" Sonny asked, already knowing the answer. On a plate in front of the Sphinx was a devil fruit, not just any fruit, but the human-human fruit. "This sphinx,despite being so young didn't come after me like most other grimm." Brook stated "Instead it kept back and watched it's fellows fight, and after learning my fighting style, attacked." the skeleton turned to the spirit a burning passion filling his eyes('he doesn't have eyes' Sonny noted) "Therefore I believed that the sphinx should be have the chance to choose whether or not it would eat the Human-Human fruit.". Sonny looked shocked at the conviction in the skeleton, until Brook broke out smiling("I have no lips I'm a skeleton!" Skull Joke!) "Plus I figured if the Captain had ever seen one he would have shouted "So cool!" followed by "Will you join my crew?"." Sonny nodded, 'that does sound like Luffy.' then he smacked the skeleton on the head! "Regardless man, you could have told me that Ozpin was sending some teachers to help you get ready! I nearly shot them out of the Gaoh Cannon!"
Brook had a look of pure terror on his face "THEY'RE HERE?! LET THEM GO AND TELL THEM TO MEET ME IN THE AQUARIUM BAR IN TWENTY MINUTES!" as he ran to the elevator. Sonny was already moving before he heard brook add another task to his day "AND COULD YOU PLEASE WATCH OVER THE SPHINX WHEN YOU'RE DONE?!" At this Sonny only nodded his head.
While Brook met with the three teachers, Sonny watched the sphinx as it woke up. It wa confused at first, to see the faunus before it but not smell him or feel his emotions. There was however one thing that smelled of human but it did not look human. Before the sphinx could think further, it's instincts kicked in and it swallowed the object. Immediately the sphinx began to change, it's forelegs shrunk, and began to look to like a human girl's, the hind legs becoming more human. The tail stayed the same except for shrinking to match her body, but it's… no her wings became smaller, reaching just past her arm span. Finally the bone mask morph to look more like a face. The first thing to come out of the young woman's mouth was an unearthly scream.
A few minutes earlier
The three professors were glad to have finally been freed from the ropes, and were overjoyed to have been served tea and taken to the ship's lounge. Oobleck was about to ask Brook about his mysterious black aura when they all heard a horrible shriek. "What's going on?!" peach asked/yelled, Brook stood up and ran for the elevator "Yohohohoho! It seems that the sphinx I stored downstairs ate the devil fruit i left out!" the skeleton turned towards Peach "madam if you would accompany me, there is now a very frightened child down a few levels who could probably needs a woman's kindness, not a ghastly skeleton." Peach was a bit embarrassed and confused by the skeletons words, but her mind focused on "Frightened child" and she immediately nodded her head and rushed towards the elevator.
She was feeling so many emotions: Pain, for the transformation was shifting her body's structure at a near molecule level. Anger, she did not enjoy what was happening to her and wanted, no needed something to strike against. Then she experienced two new emotions, she had no words yet to describe them. One was because the strange faunus/not faunus was staring at her, and her body shifted to block his view. Another was a deep disturbance, as if she knew something was wrong yet she didn't know what it was. If asked alter on she would probably named the emotions as shame, and fear.
Suddenly She felt two new presences in the room, the first was a human woman, tan skin, glasses with thin rims on her face. Her clothes were a simple blue shirt and pants(medical scrubs, as she would learn later on). The second person increased the wrongness feeling, standing behind the woman was the not man from the night before. She had never seen the creature before hand, but some ancestral memory showed her what he was capable of. She saw a giant human spider sliced to pieces, half men being frozen, a giant going mad with shock and grief, and whole armies falling under the sway of his damnable music. Suddenly a name came to her "Soul King". And she scrambled backwards on her limbs to escape.
Amira Peach was speechless at the sight of the young girl before her, "who the hell is this?!" she hissed at the skeleton "A sphinx who ate a devil fruit, though truth be told I did not think she would actually eat it." Peach just slapped the old pile of bones, "I don't care if she ate a gods damn DUST CRYSTAL! Can't you see she's terrified?!" Sonny had the decency to look deeply ashamed. Peach walked calmly toward the sphinx human, "It's alright no, no one here is going to hurt you." she said in a calming voice, looking around she found a dry blanket and draped it round the young girl, giving her some decency. Peach turned to the two pirates, with a look on her face triggering severe PTSD from their beatings by Nami. "Please direct me to the women's quarter of this ship, and tell Ozpin we're not going to be able to join him in the naming ceremony, as you two have some splainin to do."
Ozpin had just watched young Ruby Rose decapitate a Nevermore when he received a text from Sonny
1ksun: Hey Oz, Brook and the teachers aren't coming to the ceremony, Devil Fruit issues.
Ozpin sighed 'Looks like I have to come up with team names and set up again.'. He then received another text from Sonny
1ksun: P.S. Brook says to place Summer's kids on the same team(something bout how u owe him a favor).
'Well, my job became somewhat easier' the headmaster of Beacon thought with a smile 'though with the way i choose teams, they were going to be on the same team anyways.'
Bammoth, whammoth, thank you mammoth! Team Decisions is now done! What did you guys think of our new character? Did I do a good job describing her? Please leave a review if your feeling generous, and if yoju have a name idea, im open to suggestions! Till next time!
