IMPORTANT MESSAGES...SORDA!
apparently there's a dlc outfit that Jacob can wear that's similar to the "Maximum Dracula" outfit, only this one adds a kukri bonus instead of a brass knuckles bonus. its called "The Creatures Rags" outfit. who would have known, right? haha...
ANYWHO! i was gonna try and do something later on where Jacob has to switch outfits but then i looked more into the outfit itself and saw how fucking dirty and ripped it is, that it just wouldn't fit with Jacob in Remnant. I'll think of something so don't you worry.
I do not own RWBY or Assassins creed
Emerald Forest, 8:35am
Evie is currently I would say about over 500 feet in the air and is beginning to fall to the ground, nothing she hasn't done before back at home but it's frightening from her position none the less. Luckily thanks to her keen sight she can see a huge pile of leaves where she's about to land, big enough to cushion the impact her fall.
And so she does just that, rolls over in midair onto her back and proceeds to spread her body out. About 5 seconds pass until she finally made contact with the ground. Thanks to those leaves, she landed safely onto the ground. She come out from the leaves and rubs herself off of some leaves.
Evie sighs in relief. "Not a scratch on me, some things never change it seems." She says to herself. "Now...to find Jacob. If i made it here safely, I'm sure he could have as well." She walks off to find her twin brother.
With Jacob
To put it bluntly, Jacob is screwed! He might be this cool guy who's not afraid of anything or any challenge but THIS is not one of those times. Sure he has jumped of buildings before and landed safely onto the ground but he was never catapulted into a forest before, having to make his own landing strategy by the way.
'come on! I can do this...' In front of him he's about to hit a tree and he comes up with a plan...a REALLY bad one if it's coming from Jacobs head at the last second. "Got it!" He readies himself to grab the tree.
He grabs it successfully...ehhhhhhhhh sort of...
He grabs the top of the tree only to lose his grip from the impact of him and the tree and falls to the ground. He hits a bunch of branches along the way hitting just about every part of his body until he finally lands on the left side of his body. It made a loud thud when he hit the outfit he's wearing protected him from some of the damage received, so the fall didn't kill him but it still hurt like hell. If he had a health bar it would be at less than a bar full right now. (See what I did there XD)
Jacob grunts in pain as he gets up. "Agh...That was a stupid idea..." He says painfully limping away from the tree. He's holding the left side of his body as he walks. His breathing gets heavier every step he takes. He finds a big rock that he decides to lean on to get something out of his pocket
"Where is it...? Ugh! Where is it...?" He keeps digging in his pockets trying to find where what he's looking for is until he finally finds it, his special medicine used to heal wounds such as these. (How convenient)
"There you are.." He says. Jacon takes the medicine out of his pocket and proceeds to drink it (AN: I think thats how Jacob and Evie use the medicine, I could be wrong but lets roll with it) A few minutes pass and he feels better now to walk and fight now.
Jacob sighs in relief. "Phew, that was quite a mess there. I've been through worse though." He says to himself smirking. He was taken out of his thoughts when he hears some rustling and in the bushes close to him. "Who's there?" Jacob asks. Nobody answers but they keep rustling in the bushes, Jacob pulls out his pistol. "Come out now or I'll shoot you! Ally or enemy!" He yells.
There's now growling coming from the bushes along with two red glowing eyes. This is where Jacob has had it and shoots whatever is in the bushes right between its red eyes. "Got ya." Jacob says. The thing came out of the bushes for a second before it died. Jacob holsters his pistol and goes to see what it is and examines that whatever it is, it's sure as hell not an ally. In fact, It doesn't even look human.
Jacob kicks it over to reveal what looks like a big wolf with arms and legs, along with black fur and a bone mask and some bones sticking out of its limbs and body.
"Hm...must be one of the Grimm creatures Ozzy was talking about. What was it? Beowolf I think?" He asks himself. "Sad, The way Ozzy described them, I was expecting them to put up more of a fight." Jacob says as he gets up. He begins to walk away but he stops again when he hears more growling and more red eyes in the bushes. Jacob does the only responsible thing to do in a situation at a time like this (in his opinion) and counts all the Grimm around him, pointing at each one.
"8. Now we're talking." Jacob says grinning.
They exit the bushes and surround Jacob. Jacob pulls out his Kukri and readies himself for whatever they throw at him.
1 of the Beowolves charge at Jacob with its claws, Jacob dodges one swipe then the other swipe then sticks his kukru in the left side of its body where its stomach would be and keeps it in there while he stabs its neck with his gauntlet hidden blade. After that he takes the kukri out and uses his left arm with the blade still stuck in its neck to push it backwards where the Beowolf falls to ground and dies.
2 more now charge at him, one from the back and front. Jacob deflects the one from the fronts attack with his kukri and punches it in the face with his gauntlet quickly, the Beowolf gets stunned from the hit. Jacon bends over to just miss the Beowolf from behinds attack, the attack instead hits the stunned Beowulf in the chest and he falls to the ground, its still alive but stays on the ground for now. Jacob is right behind the Beowolf still standing and uses this opportunity to attack. So he crouches and uses both of his hidden blades to stab it in the legs, one stabbing one and one stabbing the other. The Beowolf roars in pain and falls to its knees, about the same height as Jacob now. Jacob walks up to it from behind and wraps his kukri around its neck and slits its throat with the saw tooth side. Blood comes spraying out of its neck and onto the grass. Jacob lets it go and it falls with its face in its own pool of blood. The Beowolf on the ground begins to get back up but before it does, Jacob runs over, jumps and lands on its front side making it fall on its back again and Jacob sticks his hidden blade in its heart, it roars in pain before it dies.
Jacob gets up and looks at the remaining Grimm. "That it?!" He yells.
2 more now make their way to Jacob but they get interrupted by someone new entering the fight, Evie.
Evie jumps out of one of the trees and lands right between the two Beowolfs and stabs them both right in the neck with her hidden blades then pulls her arms out of their necks and they fall to the ground
She looks at Jacob. "Having fun?" She asks before she turns her attention to the 2 Beowolves on her side. She moves towards Jacobs position without taking her eye off of any of them.
"I get to fight, how can I not be?" He asks back. Jacob put his kukri away and pulls out his gun and Evie pulls out her cane sword and unsheaths it.
Jacob runs over to the Beowolf on his side and with the speed he built up from running he kicks the Beowolves leg and it falls onto its stomach. Before it could react to anything else, Jacob aims his gun at the back of its head and shoots it in the head.
"Your turn. Don't disappoint me." Jacob says to Evie.
Evie charges at the last 2 Beowolfs and proceeds to slash at them with her cane sword and dodging their attacks, all at very impressive speed. after a few cuts here and there on the 2 Grimm they are now on different sides of Evie. Evie throws her cane sword at one of the Beowolves chest and throws 2 throwing knives at the other, both hitting it in each if its eye balls. That Beowolf falls to the ground and dies after that. Evie walks over to the other one to get her sword back. She grabs her sword with her right hand and punches the Beowolf in the face with her gauntlet hand. The Beowolf flies backwards from the hit and the sword comes out of its chest because of that.
She turns to Jacob. "Did I disappoint you?" She asks smirking.
Jacob smirks back. "I could have done better." He says.
"Of course you would have." Evie says. She sheaths her cane sword and puts it away.
With Ozpin and Glynda on the cliff, 10:00am
Glynda looks at her scroll. "The first partners have been paired, sir, Jacob and Evie Frye." She sighs. "I still don't understand why you let them in Beacon. I mean, after their incident at the Dust store robbery..."
Ozpin sighs then looks at his assistant. "Glynda, if you saw what I saw then you would have seen 2 people who went out their way to help a child from getting hurt by a few thugs. Sure their methods were pretty...drastic, but they still stopped Roman from stealing any more Dust for that night, as well as saved Rubys life." Ozpin tells her.
"That is true, in fact them killing those men isn't what bothers me. What bothers me is they didn't show any emotion when they killed those men. I'm only looking out for the safety of everyone at Beacon if that's the kind of people they are, to kill without remorse...no matter what or WHO it is." Glynda says.
"Don't worry about that. I talked to them already about that and they agreed to all of my terms of staying here at Beacon, ESPECIALLY about the wellbeing of all other students." Ozpin says. "Besides, I feel that their is something special about the two of them." He adds.
"Well...if you trust them, then so do I. But that still doesn't mean I won't keep a close eye on them." Glynda says.
"That's good." He says then looks back at his scroll.
Back with Jacob and Evie
They're currently walking in the forest talking.
"I heard some roaring and gunshots from where I was and ran over to see whats going on." Evie tells him.
"How did you land safely?" Jacob asks.
"I did a leap of faith surprisingly. You?" She asks.
"I hit a tree and fell." He says simply.
Evie starts laughing. "Nice one." She says.
"What? I've had worse falls." He says.
"That's true." She says.
"Now...where would this 'temple' be?"
"Ozpin said go north." Evie tells him
Jacob stops walking and looks at Evie. "Oh thank you so much Evie! That is so helpful for our situation right now!" He yells sarcastically.
"I'm just answering your question you prick." Evie says then punches him in the arm.
"I know that, but that doesn't exactly help us know where to go." Jacob says
"Jacob...we are Assassins, this is the type of thing we're best at doing." Evie says. "Let's climb that tree." She points at a tall ass tree near them. "We'll get a better view of the forest that way."
"You stand guard on the ground, I'll take a look from the tree." He says.
"Don't fall." She says.
"I make no promises." He says grinning.
Jacob begins to climb the tree all the way to the top. There's a lot of sturdy branches so it'll be easier to be able to grab on to them without them braking. He manages to make it to the top where he leans on a V-shaped trunk and looks at the view. Nothing special to him, but a very nice view none the less.
He takes a deep breath in and out. "Time to see what's out there, waiting for the Frye twins." He says to himself.
He concentrates real hard and can see everything in his area right now.
AN: This next part is the same type of thing when he's doing the opportunity montage things for when he goes to kill his targets, just so theres no confusion :)
His vision zooms through the trees to see 2 people, Ruby and Weiss.
Weiss is pulling Ruby by her hood "By no means does this make us friends." She says to her.
"You came back!" She yells with her hands in the air.
He sees a weird figure in a tree by them and zooms over to see what it is. It's Jaune hanging in the air with a sphere in his hood
"Who's gonna get me down from here?!" He yells. He then winces.
"Jaune?" Jacob hears a female voice say. his vision turns around to reveal it's Pyrrha looking up at Jaune. "Do you...have any spots left on your team?" She asks cutely.
Jaune crosses his arms and looks away. "Very funny..." He says. He looks back at her smiling, and her doing the same.
Jacobs keen sight hears a few gunshots and a bear roaring from farther away so his vision zooms through the trees to see Yang beating the crap out of another Grimm creature only this ones different. It's a bear with some bones sticking out of its body and a bone mask as well. Jacob knows this one is called an Ursa, according to Ozpin.
The Ursa gets knock backwards very hard by Yangs shotgun gauntlets, "Ember Celica", destroying some trees in the processes. She turns to another Ursa closing in on her. Jacob notices her eyes have changed from violet to deadly red.
"WHAT?! YOU WANT SOME TOO?!" She yells.
The Ursa stands on its feet ready to attack but something stabs it in the back killing it. The Ursa falls to reveal the person who killed it was Blake, holding a ribbon connected to a small pistol katana, "Gambol Shroud".
Yang and Blake look at each other for few second before Yang speaks. "I could have taken him." Yang says to her.
Jacob hears a really loud explosion this time and his vision zooms through the trees to see what it is. He sees Ren on top of 2 dead Grimm. They're different this time, much bigger as well. Ozpin told him that that kind of Grimm is a King Taijitu, 2 huge snakes connected to each other. A black one with a white and red bone mask and a white one with a black and red bone mask.
Ren sheathes his two pistol knives, "Stormflower", into his sleeves then pats his arms. Jacob the hears someone making bird noises. his vision looks up to see it's Nora hanging upside down in a tree.
Ren laughs. "I still don't think that's what sloth sounds like." He says.
Noras response to that is booping Ren on the nose.
Jacobs vision zooms out and into the sky to try and see anything else and he sees a weird looking structure in the far distance from him. His vision zooms in to where the structure is and sees its the abandoned temple they're looking for with a few podiums with chess pieces on each podium. He zooms back out and back to him in the tree.
Jacob takes a few deep breaths and collects his thoughts. He now knows where the temple is from his position and who's partnered up.
"That's that then." He looks down to see a big pile of leaves he can land in. Jacob jumps from out of the tree and performs a leap of faith into the leaves. An eagle is heard as he's falling.
He lands safely in the leaves and come out of them and walks over to Evie.
"What did you see?" She asks.
"Ruby and Weiss are partners, God help those two." Jacob says. "As are Jaune and Pyrrha, Yang and Blake, and Ren and Nora. You never meet those 2 yet but I meet them this morning." He tells her.
"Good to know." She says. "Anything else?"
"The temple we're looking for is about less than 500 meters from here and the relics we need to get are chess pieces on podiums." Jacob says.
"Chess pieces? Strange..." Evie says then shakes her head slightly. "Doesn't matter now. We know the location and we know what we're after, lets be off then." Evie says as they start walking.
"Let's use the branches to get their. Their pretty sturdy from here to the temple and we'll get there faster." Jacob says.
"Lead the way." Evie says. They both begin to free run through the trees strait to the temple
With Glynda and Ozpin, 10:30pm
Glynda walks up to Ozpin. "Sir, did you see that as well?" She asks Ozpin with his head glued to his scroll
"I did, that leap out of the tree Jacob did was incredible." He says.
"It was, but that's not what I was talking about. That boy knew about the last four pairs that were formed before I found out about it on my scroll. As well as the temples location and relics. All from just leaning on a tree?" Glynda asked still amazed about what just happened.
"Yes, Evie mentioned something about that this morning when I walked past her. She and her brother both have much stronger senses then anyone else it seems. Even Faunus senses aren't as strong as theirs." He says.
"I guess you were right about them being special..." Glynda says sighing. "Non the less, the last pairs have been formed. With their pace, they should all make it to the temple within less than 10 minutes."
"That's good." He says. He focuses his attention onto Ruby and Weiss.
"...I should also mention that I did the math. Depending on what relics the students pick, we will not have enough people for another team of 4. The last 2 will only be one team, Sir." Glynda tells him.
"Lets just see who will be teamed up after this is over. No point in deciding something we know nothing about yet." Ozpin says still looking at his scroll.
Back to Jacob and Evie
The twins are now at the temple after the quick free run through the forest. they walk around in the temple.
Jacob whistles while looking around. "You know...I was hoping for a more 'easier to find temple' the way Ozzy described it back on the cliff." Jacob says.
Evie looks at the podiums. "So these are the relics we must get...Some are already taken." She says.
"Which means we were too slow to be here first." Jacob says still looking around.
"Alright, we should be smart about how we go at this. The chess pieces must each mean something for who takes it, so I think if we pick the correct one-"
"Got it!" Jacob yells cutting Evie off. Evie turns around to see what Jacob is talking about and he sees that Jacob is holding a Rook piece.
Evie rolls her eyes and crosses her arms. "Of course you pick that one." She says smiling.
"Oh, and you wouldn't?" Jacob asks.
Evie sighs. "Touche." She mutters.
"What now?" Jacob asks
"Well, we have our relic so all we have to do now is get back to Beacon." Evie says.
Jacob puts the piece in his pocket. "Lets wait for everyone else to get here first before we go." Jacob says.
"You want to make sure Yang makes it safe and sound, don't you?" Evie asks smirking a little.
"Ohh Yang can take care of herself. You should have seen what I saw up in the tree." Jacob says.
"If you say so." Evie says.
They lean on the stone walls and wait for someone to come to the temple. Evie hears something in the tree.
Two figures walk to the cliff by the temple and Jacob and Evie sees it's Yang and Blake.
"Took you guys long enough! We've been waiting for at least 2 minutes for someone else to get here!" Jacob yells to them.
Yang smirks. "Sorry to disappoint you." She says back. They jump down to meet the twins.
They start walking around the temple looking at all the chess pieces.
"These are the relics?" Blake asks.
"Strangely yes." Evie says.
"Alright Yang, lets be smart about this. We shouldn't pick just any random pie-"
"How about a cute little pony?" Yang says interrupting Blake. Yang is holding a Knight piece.
Blake rolls her eyes and smiles. "Sure."
"See Evie? I'm not the only one who thinks like that." Jacob says grinning. Evie in response rolls her eyes and both walk towards Yang and Blake.
"That wasn't so difficult." Yang says.
"Well, it's not like this place is that hard to find." Blake adds.
"Eh depends on how you try and find it." Jacob says.
"How did you guys find this place?" Blake asks.
'Maybe it'd be best not to mention how i can see a great distance.' "I climbed a tree and saw the temple from there." Jacob simply says.
"Oooh Impressive." Yang says.
"Oh, I try." He says giving Yang his sly smile. Yang does the same to Jacob. she moves closer to Jacob.
"Why don't you take off that hood so I can get a better look at that magnificent face of yours?" Yang asks.
"What do I get if I do so, hm?" He asks back.
"Stay alive through initiation...and you'll find out." Yang says winking.
Blake and Evie watch this going on. Evie groans. "Christ, this is impossible to watch without vomiting."
"What? there's nothing wrong with two people flirting with one another." Blake says.
"He's my twin brother." Evie mentions.
Blake goes wide eyed. "Oh...Yeah that would be pretty weird to watch." Blake says.
Evie turns to Blake. "You know... I never got your name yet." Evie says trying to change the subject quickly.
Blake turns to her and extends her hand. "I'm Blake Belladonna."
"Evie Frye. Nice to meet you." She goes to shake her hand.
Evie walks over to talk to Jacob when all of a sudden, a loud scream is heard.
"Some girls in trouble!" Yand says then goes towards Blake. "Blake, did you hear that?" She asks.
"Pretty sure we all heard it." Jacob says. Evie hits Jacob on the shoulder. "Rude." Jacob puts his hood back on.
Blake right now is busy looking up at the sky to answer Yang
"Blake did you hear that? What should we do?" Yang asks. Blake points up at the sky and everybody looks up to see what she's looking out and they see Ruby falling from the sky.
"HEADS UUUUUUUUP!" She yells. Everyone is surprised to see her falling and doesn't know what to do. Thankfully Jaune as well comes out of nowhere and collides with Ruby in midair where they both land in a tree. everyone looks over to the tree they fell in.
"Uhh...Did your sister just fall from the sky?" Blake asks.
"I-" Yang says before a few explosions, trees falling and an Ursa roaring come from the forest. An Ursa comes out from the trees and starts growling. One last explosion comes from its back then it dies.
"YEEEEHAaAWWWW!" Nora is heard behind the Ursa. The Ursa falls over and Nora falls off of it as well.
"Aw. It's broken." She says sadly.
Ren comes from behind the dead Ursa panting. "Nora? Please...don't ever...do that again." He says.
He turns his head to looks at where Nora is but she ran off really fast. She's now over at the temple looking at a Queen piece
"Ooooooohhhh..." She says. she grabs the piece and starts playing with it. "I'm queen of the castle! I'm queen of the castle!" She sings.
"NORA!" Ren yells.
Nora giggles. "Coming Ren!" She says back
"Did that girl just ride in on an Ursa?" Blake asks.
"I-" Yang is interrupted again by more Grimm screeching and trees falling down near them. Everybody looks over at where the trees are falling to see it's Pyrrha being chased by a giant scorpion Grimm. The twins were told that this Grimm is called a Deathstalker.
Pyrrha successfully dodges all of the Grimms attacks as shes running.
"Jaune!" She yells.
"Pyrrha!" He yells back from the tree. Ruby jumps off the tree branch. "Ruby!" He yells
"Ruby?" Yang asks.
Ruby turns her head to see it's her big sister. "Yang!" She goes to hug her.
"NORA!" Nora yells getting between the two, scaring them
Jacob and Evie watch what just happened in the last 10 seconds. "That was interesting to say the least." Jacob says.
"Agreed." Evie says back.
Blake looks back at Pyrrha. "Did she just run all the way here with a Deathstalker on her tail?" Blake asks.
Yang goes red eyed. "I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! CAN EVERYBODY JUST COOL OUT FOR 2 SECONDS BEFORE SOMETHING CRAZY HAPPENS AGAIN?!" Yang yells.
"1...2..." Jacob whispers. Ruby then pokes Yangs shoulder. "Um...Yang..?" She asks then points up. Yang sighs and puts her head down.
Everyone looks up and sees Weiss holding onto the talon of a giant Grimm bird, the Nevermore.
"How could you leave me?!" Weiss yells.
"I said jump!" Ruby yells back
"She's gonna fall." Blake says.
"She'll be fine." Ruby says.
"She falling." Jacob says.
Weiss starts falling to the ground, luckily Jaune jumps from out of the tree and catches Weiss in midair...only to fall as well. Jaune falls on his stomach then Weiss lands on his back.
"My hero..." She says checking her nails.
"My back..." Jaune says painfully.
Pyrrha gets knocked back to the temple.
"Great! The gangs all here. Now we'll all die together." Yang says sarcastically.
"Not if i can help it!" Ruby yells. She she pulls out Crescent Rose and charges at the Deathstalker, before she can lay a hit on it, she gets hit by the Deathstalkers claw and gets knocked back. She hesitates to do anything to it, instead she shoots her gun knocking her back to retreat from the Deathstalker.
"RUBY!" Yang yells as she runs to save her sister
"Jacob, lets go!" Evie yells. All three of them run to get Ruby. The Nevermore goes to attack and shoots a bunch of its huge feathers at them from its wings. One of the feathers hit Rubys cape and she's stuck to the ground. the other feathers all hit the ground blocking the trio from helping Ruby.
Yang stops running to avoid getting hit with any feathers. "RUBY! Get out of there!" She yells.
"I'm trying!" Ruby yells. She's struggling to get her cape free.
Jacob and Evie don't stop running however. They run past all the feathers in their way same way as if they're running through a crowd of people. They don't plan to let her die.
The Deathstalker is getting closer to Ruby but the twins slow it down with 2 voltaic bombs. The Deathstalker screeches and doesn't move. This gives Jacob and Evie a small window of opportunity to try and kill the beast. they take out their weapons and start slashing at it, trying to find a weak spot.
"I can't find a place to hurt it!" Evie yells.
"Me neither! It's all armor!" Jacob yells back.
The Deathstalker begins to get back up and uses its claws to hit Evie in the stomach causing her to knock back and fall to the ground. It does the same with Jacob and he gets knocked back and hits a feather behind him. He flips around and falls onto his Deathstalker continues its approach towards Ruby who is still trying to get her cape free.
Jacob and Evie struggle to get up, they're in too much pain to move. Evie looks at Jacob getting his attention and holds a small bottle of medicine. Jacob goes in his pocket and gets his own medicine, they proceed to drink it. It's going to take a moment for the medicine to heal their body up however.
The Deathstalker is about to hit Ruby with its tail. Ruby closes her eyes and looks away, hoping something will happen where she's saved. Luckily Weiss comes to the rescue. She gets between Ruby and the Deathstalker pulling out her sword, "Myrtenaster". She stabs it in the ground and Ice suddenly comes out of the ground. The Deathstalkers tail gets caught in the thick ice just before it was about to make contact with Ruby. The ice also freed Ruby from the Feather she was attached to.
"You are so childish..." Weiss says to Ruby not looking at her.
Ruby opens her eyes to see that the tail is right in front of her face, stuck in a thing of ice. She looks towards Weiss.
"Weiss?" She asks.
"And dimwitted, and hyperactive." She turns to face her. "And don't even get me started on your fighting style. And I suppose I can be a bit...difficult...but if we're going to do this, we're going to have to do this together. So if you quit trying to show off, I'll be...nicer." She says.
"I'm not trying to show off. I want you to know I can do this." Ruby tells her.
"You're fine." Weiss tells her then helps her on her feet. Jacob and Evie walk up to them, the medicine kicked in and they feel better to move now.
"Well isn't this sweet. Everybodys friends again." Jacob says.
Weiss turns to Jacob. "And as for you two...What you did was the most idiotic thing I have EVER seen In my life! You don't just take on a Deathstalker head on with just regular weapons like those! You could have gotten yourselves killed!" Weiss yells.
"Oh if I had a nickle for every time I've been told that." Jacob says smirking.
"What's a nic-Ugh! It doesn't matter. What were you guys thinking?" Weiss asks them.
"There's your answer. When it comes to saving someones life we don't think...well, I don't think to say the least. I just do it. Simple as that." Jacob says truthfully.
"Well I suggest thinking a little bit before you do something idiotic like that. Both of you." She tells them then walks back to the temple.
Evie turns to Jacob and puts a hand on his shoulder. "Ah don't listen to her. Father would be proud of you right now, Jacob." Evie says. Jacob smirks.
Yang runs over to Ruby to hug her. "So happy you're OK!" Yang says.
"Thanks sis." She says. "Don't forger to thank Jacob and Evie." She whispers.
"Oh i won't." She whispers back. She walks over to the twins. "Guys, thank you so much for doing what you could. You didn't save her, parsay, but you did basically risk your lives to save her, and I'm very thankful for it." She tells them.
"What she said! Those lightning bombs or whatever were so cool!" Ruby says.
"It was no problem, really. I'm just glad you're alright." Evie says.
They all walk back to the temple to meet up with everyone else. Jacob however is stopped by Yang who pulls him in for a deep and passionate kiss. He's surprised at first but closes his eyes and kisses her back.
They stop kissing but keep holding each other. "That really was the stupidest thing I've ever seen." Yang says.
"Aw thanks, I try my best." Jacob says grinning. Yang giggles slightly.
"Which is why imma definitely give you your little present when this is over." She says winking.
"I can't wait." Jacob says.
They all get back to the temple, Yang and Jacob a little later than the others. The Nevermore from earlier screeches getting everyones attention.
"Guys! That things circling back." Jaune says. "What should we do?" He asks worryingly.
"Look, there's no sense in dillydallying. Our objective is right in front of us" Weiss says pointing at the chess pieces.
"She's right. Our mission is to grab an artifact and get back to the cliffs." Ruby says. Weiss happily nods at what she said. "There's no point in fighting these things."
"Run and live. That's an idea I can get behind." Jaune says proudly.
"I'd prefer maybe a little fighting involved." Jacob adds.
Ruby walk over to grab their pieces. Ruby grabbed a Knight piece and Jaune grabbed a Queen piece.
The Deathstalker finally gets free of the ice.
"Time we left." Ren says.
"Right, lets go guys!" Ruby says.
Everyone follows Ruby up the hill and back to Beacon, everyone except Yang. Blake walks by Yang just looking into space and goes to ask her whats up.
"What?" Blake asks. Yang watches her little sister on the hill, admiring her leadership with other people.
"Nothing." Yang says happily. Evie catches wind of what Yangs looking at and walks over to her.
"She's a strong hearted fighter, Yang. She's just in a place full of new people." Evie tells her. "Eventually she'll be doing great things here, I can see that about her."
Yang smiles at that and looks at Evie. "I appreciate that, Evie." Yang says. They all start running back to Beacon.
With Glynda and Ozpin in the Beacon Theater, 12:10pm
Ozpin and Glynda are preparing some things for when the students return from initiation.
Glynda walks up to Ozpn. "The pairs all have their pieces now. Jaune Arc, Pyrrha Nikos, Lie Ren and Nora Valkyrie picked up the Queen pieces. Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long picked up the Knight pieces. Jacob and Evie were the only ones to pick up the Rook piece." Glynda tells him. "They're all on there way back to Beacon Cliff, they're getting close to the ruins at the front of the cliff." She says.
"Good, everything will be set by the time they get back." Ozpin says.
"Now, on to other problems...What do we do with Jacob and Evie?" She asks.
Ozpin holds his chin, thinking of what to do with them. "We don't have any teams that need any new partners at the moment...hmm..." He looks back to the 10 students running back to the school. "I'll need some time to think of something." Ozpin says.
"Well we don't have all day, Sir. Make it quick." Glynda says.
back with everyone else in the ruins
All ten of the students are all running through the ruins on their way to the top of Beacon Cliff with their weapons out. They just have to cross a stone bridge without falling in the huge pit and climb some stairs and they'll be fine. This would be easy to get right back to the school...if there wasn't a Nevermore following them.
The Nevermore flies over them and lands on the stone bridge they have to cross. It screeches loudly. They take cover from it by the the broken pillars. Ruby, Yang, Ren and Nora on the right side and Jaune, Pyrrha, Weiss, Blake, Jacob and Evie on the left.
Evie peeks her head out. "Damn! We need to get across that bridge." Evie says. She then turns to the others. "We'll have to fight it." She tells them.
"Are you crazy?" Weiss asks. "We can't handle that kind of Grimm yet. Even with all of us combined."
"We don't have much of a choice right now but to fight!" Evie says.
The Deathstalker from before makes its appearance and comes out from the trees behind them.
"Run!" Jaune yells. Everyone starts running towards the bridge to get away from the Deathstalker, Ren, Nora, Jacob, Evie and Weiss stay behind stand behind.
"Nora! Destract the Nevermore!" Ren says.
"Got it!" Nora yells. She runs out into the open dodging all the feathers the Nevermore shoots at her. She then pulls out her grenade launcher weapon, "Magnhild", and shoots a few pink grenades at the Nevermore. They all explode in its face and the Nevermore flies off.
Nora cheers but then turns around to a Deathstalker charging for her. Ren reacts fast by attacking the Deathstalker giving Weiss enough time to jump in and grab Nora. She summons a Glyph that shoots the two forward away from the Deathstalker. Jacob and Evie help out Ren by each throwing a smoke bomb right at the Deathstalker this time, causing the thing to be stunned slightly, giving the trio enough time to run to the bridge.
Pyrrha makes it to the bridge then turns around. She transforms her spear, "Milo", into a shotgun and starts shooting at the Deathstalker. Blake runs over to Pyrrha and does the same. They both provide cover for the rest of the poeple to get to the bridge, Ren gets to the bridge and starts shooting at it as well, giving the twins fire support to get to the bridge. The bridge is too big for the Deathstalker to get onto the bridge so it just stays at the front of the bridge.
Everyone runs across the bridge but the Nevermore flies back to the students and flies right into the bridge. Jacob catches wind of what the Nevermore is about to do and pushes Evie out of the way of the Nevermore then quickly jumps out of its way. The bridge between them collapses and now they're separated.
Jacob gets back up. "Evie!" He yells.
She gets back up. "I'm alright!" She tells him. She runs over to Pyrrha, Ren and Blake who are attacking the Deathstalker.
Jacob runs over to meet up with everyone else at the center of the bridge where there's a stone tower. Jaune and Nora however try and get over to the other side to help their partners.
"Oh man, they need our help." Jaune says.
"Lets do this!" She yells.
Jaune looks down at the pit. "Yeah, but uh...I can't make that jump." He tells her. Nora grinns then pushes Jaune back. She transforms her grenade launcher into a big hammer. She turns around and lifts her hammer in the air. Jaune goes wide eyed knowing what she's about to do. "WAIT!" He yells. Nora doesn't listen and hits the edge of the stone bridge hard. The impact catapulted Jaune over the gap and to the other side.
Nora was about to fall with the bridge pieces but she stands on her hammer and shoots a grenade out of it. She went flying towards the Deathstalker and then hits it square in the face. She was about to get hit by its tail so she shoots again making her knock back. She hits Blake when she does this and Blake falls off the bridge. She reacts quickly by shooting her katana ribbon at the stone bridge. she starts swinging from under the bridge and swings right to the Nevermore. She lands on it and runs down its back slashing it as it runs down. She jumps off and meets up with Yang, Ruby, Weiss and Jacob.
"That thing is tougher than it looks!" Blake tells them.
Yang reloads Ember Celica. "Then lets hit it with everything we got!" She says.
Blake folds Gambol Shroud into a Dust pistol, Ruby folds out Crescent Rose and aims the barrel at the nevermore, Weiss loads some Dust into Myrtenaster to shoot at it and Jacob pulls out his pistol. The Nevermore circles around and charges at the five.
They all begin to shoot everything they have at the Nevermore but none of it works on it. The Nevermore crashes into the stone tower with the five on it. The girls act quickly by jumping on the debree until they make it back onto the bridge. Yang looks around to find where one person in particular is, and it's not Ruby. It's Jacob. She looks down and gasps to see he's still standing on the big piece of the tower falling.
Her eyes go wide. "JACOB!" She yells scared for his life.
Jacob was just waiting for the good moment to use his grapple. He aims his left arm at the top of the bridge and fires his grappling hook at it. It attaches to the bridge and he starts running up one of the stone pillars strait to the top of the bridge. He gets back up and Yang sighs in relief then runs over to the top of what's left of the tower. Jacob runs over to Weiss and Ruby.
"None of this is working!" Weiss says.
"I'm running low on bullets! Whatever we do next had best work!" Jacob yells as he reloads his pistol.
Ruby takes a look at Blake swinging over to another part of the bridge then at Yang shooting bullets at the Nevermore from the tower.
"I have a plan! Jacob, Do you have any of those electricity bombs?" Ruby asks.
"Yes!" Jacob says.
"Try and get it to crash into the cliff." Ruby says pointing at the cliff.
"What are you planning to do?" He asks.
"You'll see, Now go!" Ruby tells him. Jacob runs over to Yang to get a better shot. "Weiss cover me!" Ruby yells then jumps to the other bridge.
With everyone else fighting the Deathstalker
The Deathstalker strikes its tail at the bridge causing it to destabilize what's left of the stone bridge they're standing on.
"We gotta move!" Jaune yells. They all charge at the Deathstalker to try and kill it, or get past it, or something! literally anything that gets them off the bridge!
Pyrrha blocks the Deathstalkers right claw with her shield, "Akouo", then hits it with Milo. Jaune runs over to the left claw with his shield then hits it with Crocea Mors. Ren runs and grabs its tail then starts shooting at its tail with Stormflower, still holding on to the tail. Nora gets Magnhild into grenade launcher form and shoots one at the Deathstalker, causing Jaune and Pyrrha to get knocked back towards the edge of the bridge. Evie helps them both up the starts throwing some throwing knives at the Deathstalker but it does nothing.
Pyrrha throws her spear at the Deathstalker, pinning it into one of its eyes. It reacts bu flailing its tail around causing Ren to be thrown into one of the pillars on the grass.
"REN!" Nora yells.
"I'm ok!" Ren yells back still lying on the ground.
Jaune looks at the tip of the Deathstalkers tail which has a cut in it. A good hit will cause it to fall off. But first it needs to be still for at least a few seconds.
"Evie! Throw one of those electric bombs!" Jaune says.
"Got it!" She says back. Evie throws a Voltaic Bomb at the Deathstalker and it causes the thing to be stunned.
"Pyrrha! Hit the tail!" Jaune says.
"Done!" She throws Akouo at the tail tip. It falls off and it falls on its head. The shield bounces off a pillar and back to Pyrrha who catches it
'Just one more hit and it's done for.' Jaune thinks. "Nora! Nail it!" He yells.
"Heads up!" She transforms Magnhild into hammer form then jumps on Pyrrha who has her shield over her head. Pyrrha pushes Nora into the air and Nora added an extra kick by shooting an explosive out. She's now in the air then she falls directly on top of the Deathstalker. With the added force from the fall she hits the Deathstalker right on top of the head where the tail is. This causes the tail to get pushed deeper into its head.
It also caused the bridge to catapult Juane, Pyrrha and Evie over the Deathstalker and onto the grass. Nora comes right behind them shooting her hammer into the ground and flying over to the grass. The Deathstalker falls into the pit.
Jaune falls face first into the grass, Nora falls on her butt, Evie rolls over when she hits the ground then stands right back up and Pyrrha lands on one knee and performs a warrior pose. Ren walks over to the four panting then falls to the ground in exhaustion.
They all get up and turn around to see the Yang firing at the Nevermore.
With the other five fighting the Nevermore
Yangs keeps on shooting at the Nevermore on the stone pillar until Jacob gets her attention.
"Yang!" Jacob yells. She looks down at him on the floor. "Go over to Ruby! I'll take it from here!" He tells her. She jumps off the pillar and runs to Ruby.
"Good luck!" She yells as she's running.
Jacob starts climbing up to the top of the pillar where Yang was. The Nevermore turns around to attack Jacob and Jacob grabs a Voltaic Bomb and aims for the Nevermores head. It opens its mouth and right when its about to make contact with Jacob, he throws the bomb right into its mouth. This causes it to be stunned for only a few seconds. In tat time it looses control of itself and flies right into the cliff. Jacob looks down and sees Weiss run up to the Nevermore with intense speed. She jumps onto the cliff and stabs her weapon into the ground where the Nevermores tail is stuck in ice.
Jacob then looks at what the others are up to. Blake is on one of the pillars and Yang is righton the other side of another pillar. Blake throws her her katana with the ribbon out and Yang catches the katana. Weiss runs back to the three and Ruby rumps onto the rope then Weiss uses a Glyph to pull her back, still on the rope.
Jacob now gets what she's planning and runs over to her.
"Of course you would come up with this plan." Weiss says.
Jacob makes it to Ruby. "You can make the shot, right?" He asks Weiss.
"Of course I can. Now move out of the way." Weiss says.
Jacob does so and moves behind Weiss. Weiss lets the Glyph go and Ruby gets sling-shot'd strait towards the Nevermore. She latches Crescent Rose onto its neck and hits the cliff with her feet. Weiss makes a line of Glyphs on the cliff from Ruby strait to the top of the cliff. Ruby uses them to run up the cliff dragging the Nevermore with her. She shoots at it as she's going up. When she finally gets to the top, the Nevermore head cuts cut off.
Everyone sees the headless Nevermore fall down the cliff with Ruby at the top of the cliff. Only one thing is going through their minds. how fucking awesome that was.
"Wow." Jaune says.
Jacob and the other three all look at Ruby who's on the top of cliff. Rose pedals are coming out of her cape. Yang tries to break the silence.
"Well...that was a thing..." She says.
"Can we get going back now? I'm beat." Jacob says.
With Ozpin and Glynda in Beacon Theater, 3:00pm
Glynda and Ozpin see the headless Nevermore fall into the pit on one screen on their scrolls, and the Deathstalker fall into the pit as well on another screen on their scrolls.
"Well...that was quite impressive." Ozpin says taking a sip of his coffee.
"It was, they all worked together to take down the Grimm. However...I'm not too sure about Jacob and Evie. Their fighting skills are as good as the average student here but their weapons aren't strong enough to take on a strong Grimm as you can tell." Glynda says.
"That's why teams are made here, to take down a strong Grimm like that TOGETHER." Ozpin says. "In fact...I figured out what to do with them." He says.
One hour later...
All the students from initiation made it back to Beacon safe and sound. Now they're forming teams in front of the whole school in the theater.
4 pictures of 4 students come up on the screen. "Russel Thrush, Cardin Winchester, Dove Brozewing, Sky Lark. The four of you retrieved the black bishop pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as...Team CRDL. Lead by...Cardin Winchester." Ozpin says. Everyone starts clapping for the newly formed Team CRDL as they begin to leave.
4 new faces appear on the screen. "Jaune Arc, Lie Ren, Pyrrha Nikos, Nora Valkyrie. The four of you retrieved the white queen pieces. From this day forward you will work together as...Team JNPR." Ozpin says. People begin clapping for the newly formed Team JNPR, Nora goes and hugs Ren. "Lead by...Jaune Arc."
"Huh?" Jaune immediately asks. "L-Lead by...?" He asks in disbelief.
"Congratulations, young man." Ozpin says. Pyrrha playfully punches her team leaders arm and he falls to the ground from it. People start to laugh. She helps him up and they start to leave the stage.
4 new faces appear on the screen"Blake Belladonna, Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, and Yang Xiao Long. The four of you retrieved the white night pieces. From this day forward you will work together as...Team RWBY. Lead by...Ruby Rose." Ozpin says.
Weiss looks over towards Ruby in disbelief, a child taking her spot a team leader? Impossible!
Everyone starts clapping for Ruby. Yang goes over and hugs her little sister.
"I'm so proud of you!" She tells her.
The 4 walk off the stage. Now there are 2 faces that appear on the screen.
"And finally...Jacob Frye, And Evie Frye. The two of you were the only ones who retrieved the white rook pieces. In situations like these when there are not enough people for a team, we pair you with another group who needs team members or you will be a team of two until there are spots to fill. But after seeing how you two worked with other students I am willing to make an exception for the time being. From this day forward until the spots can be filled, Jacob Frye, you will work with Team RWBY. You will share a room with them and go on missions with them when called to do so." Ozpin says. Jacob nods at that. "And Evie Frye, you will work with Team JNPR. You will do the same as your brother." Evie nods at that.
"Additionally, from time to time I will call you both onto missions that I would want you two to go on, to see how you two work as a team. And when those times do come up, you will be known as...Team Frye. Lead by..." Jacob and Evie can't wait to hear who will lead who. "...Neither of you. You are partners so there is no reason for one to triumph over the other, right? Congratulations you two." Ozpin says.
The crowd start clapping and cheering for the Frye twins. They both walk over to their new teammates.
"Looks like things are shaping to be an...interesting year." Ozpin says. We all know what he means...everyone else in Remnant doesn't know what he means by that, but the readers do.
With Roman Torchwick, unknown location
Roman is facing a wall with a table in front of him and a map of Vale on the wall. The map has X's and circles and writing on it in different locations of Vale.
Roman has a radio box pressed up to his ear trying to hear something but all he hears is static. He slams the box on the table and sighs. He then lights a cigar and looks at the map.
Someone walks up to Roman pushing a cart with a big crate in it. He's wearing white sleeveless armor as well as a gray mask that covers most of his face.
Roman pulls out some lien and slides it down the table for the man to have.
"Open it." Roman tells him. He does as ordered and opens the crate to reveal several different colored Dust Crystals.
Roman looks at them then blows out smoke from his cigar. "We're gonna need more men." He says to him. "We'll need to spread our operation..." He points to the map. "...if we're gonna find the map to that Apple."
*DUN DUN DUUUUUNNNNNNN! QUE THE DRAMATIC MUSIC!*
"Understood." He says as then walks off.
Roman looks back at the map. "Whatever this chick is planning, it had better be worth all the Dust we've stolen." He says to himself.
Wow this is so far my longest chapter i've written. Pretty proud of it :D
sooooooo yeah...the Apple huh? Yeah I couldn't think of any other piece of eden to use. Ive gotten suggestions on using a sword of eden and stuff but i couldn't think of what to write for those so i went oldschool and used the typical mind controlling Apple.
Hope you all enjoyed and review!
