When Trevor left team RWBY's room he went straight for Ozpin. He noticed that a couple students would look at him and whisper to their friends. He just chuckled at this. Of course this wasn't the first time nor the last time this would happen. Rumors were already spreading of a black knight being at beacon.
When he made it to the tower Glynda was at the bottom and waiting for something. "Trevor." Glynda said.
"Ms. Goodwitch. Is Ozpin out?" Trevor asked.
"No he's not. Would you like to talk to him?"
"If I could please." Trevor said. Glynda called the elevator down and both got in it. They reached the top with Ozpin looking out the window coffee in hand. "Ozpin we got a problem." Ozpin turned around and saw how serious he was.
"What sort of problem?" Ozpin asked.
"We got a new type of Grimm that puts the FU in funeral." Trevor said. "May I use your holo?"
"Yes." Ozpin said with a raised eyebrow. When the picture showed up, the two seasoned huntsman froze. "What is that?"
"That is what I call the FU taker or a guardian." Trevor said.
"I've never seen anything like it. Grimm or not." Glynda said.
"What is that on its left arm?" Ozpin asked.
"It's a cannon. But unlike other things, the cannon fires some sort of twisted aura."
"What!" Both Ozpin and Glynda yelled. "How? Aura is a person's soul?"
"Yes it is but what happens when that person dies? Hmm. Most of their soul goes to the afterlife while a small bit stays on remnant." Trevor said.
"How do you know this?" Ozpin asked.
"We all have secrets Oz. I don't trust you or your little inner circle. So now let's worry about Salem and this new god dam Grimm which in my case, doesn't leave its house without its goddam wife." Trevor replied with sarcasm.
"Wait wife?" Glynda asked.
"Yes wife. There are always two of them. They carry a soul bond of some sort. Kinda like one Grimm in two bodies. When one dies the other goes into a rage. But that rarely happens."
"What do you mean?" Ozpin asked.
"Their armor is tough. Atlas paladins can't even scratch any of its armor. It's shield on its right arm helps its defense, they show flesh at the neck, some joints, and if you're lucky it's eyes. But when you get hit by its cannon. Well you don't live long."
"It's that powerful?"
"To rookies it is. To me it's easy." Trevor smirked.
"How? It looks like a city killer?!" Glynda asked.
"It's slow. After it shoots it takes 10 seconds for it to shoot again. If it rages they don't shoot as much, they would rather charge. If you manage to climb onto its back up to its neck, you can put a grenade into its body and it blows up. Plus it's mighty stupid.
On the bad side one shot and your aura is drained, the second shot burns you and kills you. It's armor is so thick, a atlas battleship has a hard time even penetrating its armor. They always come with a Grimm hoard. Half of the time there are always 2 groups of theses fucks. If you shoot it, well you better have a couple hundred rounds. Dust ha. Dust doesn't even work on these guys." Trevor ended with a sigh.
"We need to get this information out." Ozpin said.
"Agreed." Glynda said typing on her pad.
"If you let me Ozpin I would like to talk about them since I'm the only one experienced here. On one condition." Trevor said.
"What's this condition?" Ozpin asked.
"We talk about Salem. And what YOU want to do with the seasons." Trevor said. Ozpin sighed. He knew this was coming. He agreed and Trevor left. He told Port Trevor would be in his class talking about Grimm.
"How does he know about the maidens?" Glynda asked.
"Part of his religion makes them Demigods. Warriors that deserve respect and a family. People they are willing to die for. They see us and Salem as people trying to play god." Ozpin said. Glynda sighed, she couldn't blame Trevor for having hostility towards Ozpin. He was basically using them as weapons, not people. She was glad that some people would look up to them but willing to fight and die for the maidens. Also they could have a life, not have a set of rules to live by. The two said goodbye and left to attend other business and to be ready for tomorrow.
With Jaune
Jaune, Viki, Rachel and Katie were around the hospital bed of Tilly. They landed in Oslo since it had another one of their people. Tilly was in a medically induced coma. They saw her bandages around her head, body, arms and legs. Her eyes are closed and her rabbit ears lay flat on her head.
"This isn't your fault Jaune." Katie said in a calming tone.
"How isn't it? I asked her to go on that mission and look what happened." Jaune said pointing to her.
"She's like that because she's a fighter." Rachel said.
"Heys guys I got a text from Trevor." Viki called out.
"Let's hear it." Jaune said.
"I'm informing the mainlanders on the guardians. From its weaknesses to its strong points. In return Ozpin will tell us what he… plans to do to the maidens. Fall is below his tower. I can feel her. Tell Jaune he might want to be back to oversee this Incase things get.. ugly. From T." Viki read out loud.
"Well at least we know where fall, summer and spring are now. Now we need winter." Katie said.
"Indeed. How is Summer doing?" Jaune asked. A hospital bed 3 down laid the body one heavily injured Summer Rose. She has scars all over her body and weakened aura. Bandages covered most of her body.
"She's doing better. She should be awake in a few months at this rate. Even with your aura helping her, she needs her own to live. The poison in her system was a from a scorpion Faunus. It's taken a toll on her but she's coming through it." Rachel said with a smile.
"Thank you Rachel." Jaune said patting her head when she purred at the contact. "Okay. I got a question?"
"Shoot." Katie said.
"Would you guys like to go to beacon with me?" Jaune asked. The three girls just looked at him shocked by his question.
"Why?" Viki asked getting out of her shock.
"The council wants me to be safe. They also believe that this war is ending soon. Since Trevor is also there they believe that 5 more experienced warriors would help the mainlanders. Of course we would be back for a month during the end of the first semester because of T." Jaune said.
All three nodded before they gave him a questioning gaze. "Why would we be back because of Trevor?" Viki asked.
Jaune smirked before answering. "Cause he's the only one that has a city." The girls looked at him and yelled at him saying "you don't have one either" or "They won't let me have one". "By the way, are The dogs here?"
"Yep all 3." Viki said.
"Three? I thought we had two." Jaune said.
"Rocky, Gunner, Liz. Come here!" Rachel and Katie yelled. A minute later 3 dogs come running into the room and jump on them. Gunner the black Labrador retriever. He looked to be about 4 years old. Rocky the Brown Labrador retriever. He looked to be around 3 years old. Then came the small pup. Liz the Golden Labrador retriever. "Good pups."
"W wait. L Liz?" Jaune asked.
"To… commemorate her. She wanted a dog of her own." Viki said. A tear rolled down her eye. She wiped it away before telling Jaune something. "Tilly should be out of her coma in a few days. Though if you keep using your semblance on her, she'll be out in a day or two."
"Thanks Viki. Well we all should go to sleep. We should start packing tomorrow. I'll message Trevor to see if he needs anything." Jaune said. The rest nodded and went their respective ways. Jaune laud his hand on Tilly's and said a small prayer while giving her some aura. "Sleep well my Love." He then kissed her forehead and left.
Next day with Trevor
Trevor woke up in a room that Ozpin provided for him. He took a shower last night and got ready. He wore his armor and kept his armor clipped to his side. He saw the time and had 2 hours to waste. He just spent them reading a book he brought along before heading to Port's class.
"Let's hope these 'huntsman in training' are actually smart. I don't want to deal with rookies again, Last time I had high blood pressure for a fuckin month. But Jaune did say most were fuckin idiots." Trevor said to himself.
As he walked to Port's classroom, many teens were whispering to each other. He guessed that most of it was to him since his appearance match's to Jaune's black knights. Well that and he had their patch on his shoulder guard. The patch was a sword laying down and a knight helmet facing outwards behind it. The outline was blue and the rest was goldish color.
When he got in the classroom he greeted Port. Both of them talked about whatever they wanted to. Trevor shared the story about Aleppo and Port shared a story about him defending a town from a Grimm hoards by himself. Both enjoyed their time talking but students started to come to class and the bell rung.
"So you wanna introduce me or should I start off?" Trevor asked.
"I'll introduce you my boy." Port responded before turning to the class. "Ladies and gentlemen. We have a special guest today talking about a new type of Grimm. Give your attention to Mr.Greystone."
"Alright before I start any questions?" Trevor asked. "Yeah little red?"
"Are you a black knight. Like the ones from Aleppo?" Ruby asked.
"Yes I am. Yeah Winchester?"
"Where are the other ones?" Cardin asked.
"They are doing their job protecting a nearby Faunus village. Trust me I would rather be there then here. But new Grimm and I don't wanna see more kids get wrecked."
"Why would you guys defend those animals?" Cardin asked with a snippy tone. Port was about to respond but Trevor waved him down.
'Must be the one with a small dick Jaune was talking about.' Trevor thought. "Cardin I would refrain from saying something like that again otherwise I will kick your arse so hard, they won't know if your dead or broken. I carry a zero tolerance policy for racism. So do the other knights. Ozpin even gave me permission to kick anyone's arse. So far your the only one on that list. But the reason we are defending it is because it has not huntsman or militia ready yet." Trevor responded with heat towards Cardin. "Plus your probably salty they have a bigger dick than you." The class laughed at this. Cardin just sat back down with a glare at Trevor.
"Now back to the main topic. Today I will be talking about guardians or Grimm putting the FU in funeral." A hologram of the Grimm appeared. "These Grimm are 9 ft tall and 1 and tons. Their armor is so tough an Atlas battleship can barley pierce its armor. Including it shield on its right arm. It's cannon it deadlier than a entire Grimm hoard. Two shots from this thing and your dead. Not to mention there are always two of them together. If one dies the other goes into a rage. They always come with a hoard of Grimm. Maybe a extra pair or two of these guys."
Trevor talked for the rest of the time about these Grimm about hard points and weak points. To say everyone was scared was an understatement. Their armor is near impenetrable, they barely have and openings in the armor. Their cannon kills you in two hits. There is always a pair of them. It can take a couple hundred rounds in its openings to kill it. Dust doesn't even affect it. Trevor summed it up into a pair of FU makers that can take down Vale by themselves.
This wen on another three times. Telling the other years. Thankfully Ozpin recorded it and sent it out to all huntsman, huntresses, and towns. People were scared until they heard how Trevor killed 18 pairs of these things. It gave them hope that they will win against this enemy.
By the end of the day Trevor went back to his room and relaxed. Until Jaune sent him a message.
"Trevor the council believes that me being at beacon would be the safest. They will be sending the rest of the team with me so you will be staying here in order to guard me. Don't worry, Tilly will come with us. She'll be waking up soon. I didn't want to but they're making me. Even though I can order them not to, they made a solid argument. Text me what you want us to bring for you. I'll be leaving this weekend. I'll see what I can do to bring your stuff. Stay safe, your brother, Jaune." Trevor swore at this text. He had a city to run. But then again he already set up plans for a year in advance. But he didn't want to stay with these… these kids.
"I better be getting paid for this. Oh well." Trevor thought before replying. He took a shower and looked in the mirror. He saw his scar from a young age from encountering a ursa. Three claw marks going down his chest ending at his hip. He got out of the bathroom and went to bed. Hating Vale for a while longer.
Alright so the votes are in.
7 for Faunus.
6 for older Jaune.
3 for Jaune working with Salem.
For Jaune being a Faunus I thought about a chapter or two of his life before beacon. Maybe have spent some time in the white fang before leaving for family reasons.
If older Jaune wins, I would have it as him being a 2nd year with a OC team and his younger sister leading JNPR.
Or if him helping Salem comes back. I'll have it as him being a spy for her but going to beacon having training. Finder won't infiltrate it so I'll find a way around that. Maybe Jaune needs help and they come in. Maybe but let me know your thoughts.
I'll let you guys know who wins next chapter. Have a good day raiders. May the halls of Valhalla sing of our praise!
