Chapter 36: Rescue and Arrival
"Teams RWBY, JNPR, and PAUS, we of Forunichi are sincerely grateful for your daring sacrifice, and are pleased to see you all return in one piece. For your assistance, we will happily grant your path to Mistral City. But be warned: this will not be easy. There is still much between you and Mistral City. To get there, you will need to go through another town. From our reports, it too has fallen to the Grimm. Mayhaps you can visit it and clear the area of those Grimm. I'm sure what remains of the town will gladly help you. Maybe some rest, advice, or maybe even another ally. In any case, we will see you all of tomorrow morning. Get some rest and have a bite to eat." Masuta Senshi said. The group nodded and did a bow, going to their rooms.
"Hey Eric, how ddid you block the Shadow King's attacks?" Papyrus asked.
"I dunno. Maybe it's because of this sword." Eric said, holding up the Aster Sword. It's radiance slightly brightened the hall.
"Wow. That is awesome." Ruby said, almost slack jawed at the beautiful blade.
"We should get rest ASAP. Tomorrow will be a big day, as per usual." Eric said, sheathing his sword. The next morning, they ate and packed their stuff, ready for another day of being hunters and huntresses.
"Alright, here's the plan: judging from this map, the quickest way to the fallen town is through the woods. Eric and I will go straight through, taking out any enemies in sight. Once we take out the main force in the village, Eric will fire a shot from his hand cannon to signal when group two will come in. Group two will consist of Jaune, Pyrrha, and Nora. As well, when Eric fires, Group three, which will consist of Papyrus, Sans, and Ren, will stay in the borders, making sure no backup comes. Once we clear the village of enemies, we rescue any survivors of the attack. Any questions?" Ruby said.
"Uh, where do we hold out until Eric gives the signal?" Jaune asked.
"Good question. You'll hide within the trees, a safe distance away from the village. Once he gives the signal, you rush to the village, killing any Grimm in sight." Ruby responded.
"Okay, I think I got it." Jaune said.
"Everyone else?" Ruby asked, everyone nodding. "Good. Let's get to it, then!"
The group then headed out, Masuta showing them the path.
"Stick to this path until you reach the village. There, Mistral City will be in sight. I wish you the best of luck." Masuta said, walking back to the village.
"Then let's go!" Ruby said, the group rushing down the path. Halfway, the group split up, Jaune, Pyrrha, and Nora going left, Papyrus, Sans, and Ren going right. Ruby and Eric stayed on the path, soon slowing to a walk. Eric was now wearing a black jacket, orange shirt, navy blue jeans with orange trims, and his black cloak.
"Ruby… you think there's a way to save Kieta? I know, you can't reset back to then, but even without Determination… is there still a way to save her?" Eric asked.
"Why, the answer's in your head, silly." A voice said. Eric looked around, but only Ruby was to be seen.
"Uh, was that you?" Eric asked.
"Was what me?" Ruby asked.
This confused Eric. It was definitely a female voice, so it couldn't have been Gira, so who was it?
"Eric, look!" Ruby said, pointing to a burning village. In the distance, they could see Beowolves raiding the houses, and behind them Nevermores came swooping down. Ruby formed an idea and unfolded Crescent Rose, grabbing Eric. "Hold on!"
"Wait, what are you-" Eric was about to ask, but was quickly answered by Ruby latching onto a Nevermore, the two flying off with it. "WOAH!"
"Yeah, this is way better than any bus." Ruby chuckled. "Wait… NOW!" Ruby exclaimed, slicing the Nevermore's wing off. They used the body as a landing softener, rolling with the impact. They then looked up to see a few Beowolves, staring at them. They seemed to be slightly different than the other Beowolves, but that didn't make it any more difficult killing them, Ruby slicing one's head off. Eric drew Vortex and threw it, beheading three Beowolves before returning to him like a boomerang.
"This should be easy if it's just these guys." Eric said, slicing a Beowolf in half with Aster Sword. Just then, a giant Grimm ape crashed in front of them, pounding it's chest.
"Oh, COME ON!" Ruby yelled, firing a round at it, only for it to bounce off. "Weapon fire ineffective!"
"Should we call group two in?" Eric asked.
"No, that'll ruin the plan if we call them in early. We need to kill that ape!" Ruby said.
"She's smart. If only you had such bright ideas, heh heh." The voice said.
"W-where…" Eric muttered, looking around, only for him to be slammed by the ape.
"Hey, pay attention to the battle! I don't want to be killed this early with you." The voice said.
"Wait… that voice… K-" Eric said, only for his sentence to be cut off by the ape smashing him. "GAH!"
"Eric!" Ruby exclaimed, slicing the back of the ape, it roaring and slamming her back.
"Ruby's in danger! Use it!" The voice said.
"Use what?!" Eric asked.
"My ability! Stop it from killing her! In fact, pause it completely!" The voice said.
'Her ability? Is it really you… Kieta?' Eric thought. He had little time to think, so he pushed it out of his mind and lifted his right hand, but nothing happened. "Why isn't it working?!"
"I didn't use my hand, like you did. I used my eye, that's my trick." Kieta said.
Eric then tried focussing his right eye, and the ape stopped. "It worked! Ruby, strike now!" Eric yelled. Ruby nodded and swung wildly at the ape, then Eric unpausing it, falling to his knees. "Gah. That took more effort than I thought." Eric gasped.
The ape staggered back, but it wasn't done yet. It grabbed Ruby and leaped into the sky, slamming down into the church. The two struggled to fight, the ape trying to bash Ruby into the peus, Ruby trying to get free of the ape's grasp. Soon, Ruby was able to fight out of the death grip and launch it out the church door. She then leaped high into the air and set Crescent Rose to the glaive mode, another thanks to Alphys. She plummeted down and impaled the ape, but it still lived, but only before Ruby sent a point blank round into it's skull. She took out Crescent Rose from the body and helped Eric up.
"Now, give the signal." Ruby said. Eric nodded and fired his hand cannon into the air. That got the attention of their allies, but unfortunately got the attention of all the Grimm in the area. Soon, Jaune, Pyrrha, and Nora were united with them and they fought out with all they had, decapitating and slashing and bashing and shooting all they could, all while Papyrus, Sans, and Ren fought the forces that would have flanked them. Within minutes, they reclaimed the village. They went from door to door, saving any survivors they could.
"There's another in that building, Ruby!" Asriel said in Ruby's mind. Ruby used her semblance to rush in and out of the house mentioned by Asriel to save a teenager, about the same age as Ruby. Inside the house was two fallen adults, Ruby assumed they were the teen's parents. Another thing that caught Ruby's eye was the weapon the teen held. It was an antique sword, still good, but not as sharp as it could be.
'Is she… a huntress?' Ruby thought.
[A few minutes later]
The group had secured the area and recovered what remained of the village. Most were somewhat unharmed, but some had sustained serious injuries. After a while, everything was a bit better, the ones who needed it were under medical care, thanks to Pyrrha and Eric, who both took some medical aid classes back at Beacon.
"Well, thank God some of us are medics." Eric chuckled, bandaging the teen that Ruby saved.
"What was that ape thing that you and Ruby fought anyway? Never seen a Grimm like that before." Pyrrha asked.
"To be honest, even I don't know. It must be a new kind of Grimm. It was tough, about the strength of two Ursi and it was almost as durable as a Hydrill. This must mean… if Adam's plan is to the next phase, then… no, he couldn't have awakened it yet!" Eric said.
"Eric?" Pyrrha asked.
"I'm fine. Let's work on evacuating everyone and getting them safely to Mistral City." Eric said.
"Mistral… they… sent us... to… die." The teen said faintly. Both Eric and Pyrrha perked up and exchanged questioning glances.
"There's no way they would. They must not have know this would turn out like this." Pyrrha said.
"But… why wouldn't they clear the area that is right next to the kingdom? The fires would provide smoke, meaning it served as a sort of flare. If they didn't even respond to it…" Eric said.
"There must be some sort of story behind it! They couldn't just ignore these people!" Pyrrha said.
"No… they… knew this… would… happen." The teen said, now getting up.
"Look, this has happened many many times over the course of human history, maybe it's-" Eric said, a horrid thought coming to his mind. "Maybe it's that they're being controlled. By someone other than Ironwood."
"Who? Who would be able to usurp his power?" Pyrrha asked.
"I have some thoughts, none of them good." Eric said, shuddering at the thought of Cinder having complete control of the Mistral forces.
"Even if someone bad has control of Mistral, we still need to evacuate these people somewhere." Pyrrha said.
"But where? Forunichi is too far away, and if we bring them back to Mistral, we might be shot on the spot." Eric said.
"But we can't just leave them here to die! If we did, I could never be able to call myself a huntress." Pyrrha said.
"I understand that. We have two choices ahead of us: we head all the way back to Forunichi and leave them there, or we take our chances and go to Mistral. Either way, we take chances at some people dying. Beowolves could strike at any time, so it's unwise to try to hold out here." Eric said.
"I understand. Should we tell this to the others?" Pyrrha asked.
"Yes. We need their opinion on the situation." Eric said. They exited the building and went to where everyone else was. "Everyone! We need your attention!" Eric shouted, getting everyone's attention. "From the information we've gathered, we have only two options! First, we could take all survivors to Forunichi, but risk the chance of Grimm attacks. Second, we take them back to Mistral, but from what I've gathered, there's a chance the forces of Mistral is overtaken by a select few people. This act will risk us in getting shot. Another thing, it is unwise to stay here. Grimm are bound to strike again, so I suggest we move out on first light."
"Eric, if I may. I suggest we go to Mistral, regardless of what may happen to everyone." Ruby said.
"All in favor?" Eric asked, over half the people raising their hands. "Very well then. We move at first light. We'll set up divisions around the town to ensure everyone's safety. All those who are not on night guard, get some sleep. That is all." Eric said. Everyone either went to night guard positions or went to sleep. Eric took night guard, but he saw more than Grimm. "Come on out, little wolf. I know you're there." Eric called out.
"Heh, you really are a sharp eye." Vasha said, coming out from a bush. Kerasi was also with her, along with Gira. "Perhaps even a challenge to me."
"So then, are you here to help us?" Eric asked.
"Yes. Masuta told us of the situation. I assume we are coming to Mistral to stop the Tyrant from awakening." Kerasi said.
"As well, there is something else I myself want to aid you in, Eric Aeild." Gira said.
"Gira… what's your game? First you tried to kill Kieta and I, then all of a sudden you want to help us?" Eric said.
"If I wanted you both dead, I would have done it already. But instead of trying to kill you two, I instead want to revive one of you." Gira said.
"What are you-" Eric said.
"Oh my gosh, he wants to put my brain into a machine and the data of me in your head. It would be an exact copy of me." Kieta said.
"But… a copy isn't good enough. Nothing can replace her, not even an AI programmed to be an exact replica of her." Eric said.
"Are you seriously that selfish? We're using her own brain, a thing invaluable! It'll be her own conscious, her personality, everything! She was half robot anyway, why not go all the way?" Gira said, Eric scowling.
"Don't think you can scare me. Now that I have this!" Eric yelled, pointing Aster Sword at Gira.
"T-That's..!" Gira stammered, backing from the blade.
"You know of this sword. And you know full well that this could kill you within a heartbeat. And with the K13T4 systems, I could make it seem like a mere second. Face it, you have no chance of beating me in combat anymore." Eric said. "Hell, I could order you to die."
"Fine, I get it. But I still want to help you revive Kieta." Gira said.
"Then how do you expect to get her brain, now that it's miles away?" Eric asked.
"I don't need to go back." Gira said, holding out a secure casing with a half metal brain.
"You… you knew you would find me?" Eric said.
"I knew I HAD to. She is of Aeild blood, and I also have some of her blood samples. If I input it correctly, her swordsmanship and identity will remain unchanged." Gira said.
"But… why would you?" Eric asked.
"Because the world needs you both. Not only because of your ancient blood, but because the Tyrant won't be stopped without you both. Speaking of which, Masuta wanted me to give everyone a piece of advice." Gira said.
"Hold it until morning. If it's for everyone, we need them all to hear it." Eric said.
"Very well. You should get some rest. We'll take your position until morning." Gira said.
"Yeah, you should rest up. Recharge and stuff." Kerasi said.
"If you say so. Alright." Eric said, leaving his shift for the three.
[Meanwhile…]
"Hey, Sans. You still awake?" Papyrus asked.
"Yeah, bro. What's up?" Sans replied.
"You think one day, everything will return to normal?" Papyrus asked.
"No idea, bro." Sans replied.
"I just wish we could go back to the good old days, where the only thing we had to worry about was getting out of the Underground, you know? I mean, it's kinda fun being a hunter, but that still doesn't change the fact that… oh, I wish Undyne was still here." Papyrus sighed.
"Yeah, I know what you mean, bro. I wish she was still alive too. But look on the bright side, she died saving Pyrrha." Sans said, trying to lift Papyrus's spirits.
"I know, but still… Once this whole war thing is over, you think we can just… slow down and maybe play a nice game of Magic and Monsters?" Papyrus asked.
"Once this is all over, we may be able to. Maybe even go by Grillby's." Sans said.
"Nyeh heh. Remember when we watched Ruby fight Mettaton at Grillby's?" Papyrus asked.
"And how you freaked out when she nearly bit it? Yeah, I remember it like it was tomorrow. Wait…" Sans said.
"Nyeh heh heh. Let's make sure these humans live a good life." Papyrus said, the two skeletons drifting off to sleep.
[Five hours later]
"Alright, everyone, it's morning. Take anything you need and get ready to set out! We need to act before the Grimm have a chance to!" Gira said, all the people taking any of the belongings they could and setting out.
"Gira, what was it you said you needed to tell us?" Eric asked.
"Masuta forgot an important detail to the legend of the four mountains. Each ancient being has servants. Kemuri has the Gryphons as his servants, and the Tyrant, also known as Indominus, has his children, a legion of Tyrants. As well, Smaug will not simply help us defeat Kemuri. He is… hard to predict. He will most likely try to kill us for having awakened him, so we'll need to tame him, so to speak." Gira said.
"Also, we'll have to be cautious getting into Mistral City. We looked ahead and it's heavily guarded, most likely to keep Adam and the White Fang out. We'll need to keep our guard up at all times and make sure not to, well… get shot." Vasha said.
"Good advice. Let's get moving, the sooner we get out of here, the better." Ruby said. They all walked through the forest, killing any Grimm in sight. Soon, they reached the border to Mistral City.
"HALT! Identify yourselves, or we WILL open fire!" A guard said on top.
"I am prototype 3R1C, and I came to rescue these villagers, along with a group of hunters!" Eric said.
"You're the 3R1C unit…" The guard said, scratching his chin. "Right. Stay put." He then went out of view, some talking heard on the other side. "Right then. OPEN THE GATE!" As they heard this, the gateway opened, leading down the path to Mistral City.
"Well, this is a pleasant surprise." Jaune said.
"All of you may do as you please, but you, 3R1C…" The guard said.
"What do you want?" Eric asked.
"I'm afraid I must borrow you for a second. You may join your friends later." The guard said, Eric looking back to everyone.
"Be careful, Eric. If they try something, don't be afraid to act." Ruby said.
"Right. Hey, you got a name?" Eric asked.
"Name's Dempsey. Come on, I'll need to take you to my superiors." Dempsey said. They walked in silence, coming to a well guarded building. What surprised Eric was that some of the guards were Faunus.
'Huh. I guess with the White Fang acting so much, they finally recognize the Faunus. Good for them, I guess.' Eric thought. Soon, they came to an armored office, where there stood two men. One was Ironwood, surprising Eric somewhat. The other was the commander of the Mistral forces, Commander Richtofen.
"I see, so you did come." Ironwood said. "I suspected you would."
"Ironwood. What are you doing here?" Eric asked.
"I knew that the White Fang would most likely strike here next, so I came to reinforce Mistral with some of my soldiers." Ironwood said.
"Yeah, that worked out last time." Eric said sarcastically.
"As well, I came to give you a gift." Ironwood said, giving Eric a small chip.
"What is this?" Eric asked.
"This is an activation chip. This will activate the K13T4's alternate settings, the one that allows you to take control of Grimm. It is called the G3455." Ironwood said. Eric inserted the chip into the right side of his head, a small beep clicking.
"I feel… different somewhat." Eric said.
"Now then, onto the main topic." Richtofen said.
"Right, you were addressing me with the situation with Indominus." Ironwood said.
"Right. Lately, the Tyrants have been tearing through my forces, as well as slaying many of my most valued hunters and huntresses." Richtofen said.
"If I may, can my friends and I investigate the situation? It seems you guys need a strong and reliable team to take care of these Grimm." Eric said.
"Indeed. I will entrust you with the problem, 3R1C." Richtofen said. "You are dismissed."
"Yes, my lord." Eric said, doing a bow and exiting.
"You're taking on the Grimm army outside the city walls?" Dempsey asked.
"Yeah, what of it?" Eric said.
"I just want to know… you got some room in your team for me to help you? I want to get rid of those freakbags too." Dempsey said.
"Alright, if you insist." Eric said, the two returning to the others, who were all playing Magic and Monsters.
"You enter the village of- oh, hey Eric." Ruby said.
"The village of Oheyiric? That's a weird name." Sans said.
"Nice to see you, too. I just got ourselves a new mission, so suit up." Eric said.
"Aww, but we were in the middle of a game!" Papyrus complained.
"You'll get to continue it if we make it our alive. We need to clear the area around the kingdom of Grimm, specifically the Tyrants. If we can, we are to seal their way of getting to the city." Dempsey said.
"Man, we never can catch a break!" Papyrus sighed.
"Hopefully, we'll catch a break after this mission." Eric said, the gang equipping their gear, Ruby taking her civilian clothes instead of her usual dress, and Papyrus putting on a suit of armor, given to him by Undyne before her demise.
[One hour later, outside Mistral City]
"We're approaching a large group of Grimm. Don't make any sudden moves." Eric said, everyone staying in the shadows. Ahead, they saw a ton of Grimm, led by a gargantuan Grimm that looked like a T-Rex, what they assumed was a Tyrant. It was at least 12 feet tall, it's jaws stained with blood, as well as its massive claws.
"What a monster! There's no way we can take on that thing!" Papyrus exclaimed.
"Keep your voice down. If you shout like that, they'll hear us and kill us all." Dempsey said.
"What should we do then? If we can't kill them, we can't complete the mission." Pyrrha asked.
"We have to wait for the right time to strike. If we can do that, then-" Eric said, his sentence being cut off by an explosion occurring in Mistral City. That gathered the attention of the Grimm, and made them move toward the city.
"Dammit, we have to strike now!" Dempsey said.
"Dempsey's right. We don't act now, we'll never stop them." Eric said.
"Alright, commence attack! Take out the weaker Grimm first, isolate the Tyrant!" Ruby commanded, the gang heading out, wiping out all the Beowolves and Ursi around the Tyrant, leaving it and some DeathStalkers. Eric pierced the armor of one DeathStalker with ease, leaving only two more, which Dempsey attacked, firing his Military issued MG08|15, a large full automatic machine gun with a giant magazine, killing another DeathStalker and damaging the last one, letting Ruby make the finishing blow and allowing Dempsey to reload the MG08.
"Now we can focus on the Tyrant." Ren said, firing his machine pistols, slashing when he got close enough. The Tyrant roared ferociously and slashed at Ren, sending him flying into a tree.
"Ren! I'll cover him, you guys draw his attention!" Papyrus exclaimed, rushing to Ren's aid as Jaune and Pyrrha slashed at the Tyrant.
"Pyrrha, Arkos!" Jaune exclaimed, this time Pyrrha understanding and the two throwing their shields at the Tyrant, trading shields mid air and throwing them again, repeating the pattern until the finally were together then dove with their blades and inserted them into the Tyrant's back, barely missing his spinal cord, the Tyrant roaring in pain, knocking the two off its back. It then stopped on them, a stomp that would have broken every bone in a normal person's body. However, Jaune blocked the stomp with his shield, using every ounce of strength in his body to keep the foot from crushing Pyrrha. "Pyrrha, go!"
"But what about you?" Pyrrha asked.
"That doesn't matter, my team goes before me! Just get out of the way of the foot! I won't be able to hold it for much longer!" Jaune said, struggling to stand now.
"I got you, Pyrrha!" Ruby said, activating her semblance and getting Pyrrha out of the way, Jaune combat rolling out of the way of the foot as it stomped to the ground, creating a tremor. The Tyrant then tried to snap its jaws at Jaune, trying to devour him. HE managed to not get eaten, but the bite managed to get his hood, the Tyrant lifting him into the air. "Augh! I hate heights!" Jaune screamed, flailing to try to get out out of the Tyrant's grasp, but to no avail.
"Don't fire! We might hit Jaune in the crossfire!" Dempsey shouted.
"But!" Ruby exclaimed, desperately wanting to save her comrade. As they thought Jaune was a goner, a flying object got him out of the Tyrant's grasp. They looked up to see Eric and Kieta's creation, V01D, or Void.
"Hi." Void said to Jaune.
"Uh.. hi." Jaune said, looking down and holding in vomit. "Uh, can we please get back to the ground?"
"As you wish." Void said, landing and letting Jaune down, who started barfing behind a bush.
"Well, at least he's alright." Ruby said.
"Void, engage the target!" Eric commanded.
"Yes, father." Void said, slashing the Tyrant with his claws, leaving three large claw marks on the Tyrant's dark skin. The Tyrant roared and rammed Void, smashing him into a tree. Everyone lifted their guns to help.
"Hold your fire. No need to waste bullets." Eric said.
"But we'll be letting him destroy Void." Ren said.
"You honestly think Kieta and I just went and made a robot without giving it advanced fighting protocols? Void, commence system pattern GUR3N!" Eric commanded, Void's right arm shifting into a more advanced looking arm, the claws extending and becoming sharper. Void then grabbed the Tyrant's head and squeezed, trying to break it's skull. The Tyrant thrashed around, trying to break free of Void's death grasp, succeeding after ramming it into a large rock. The Tyrant then tried ramming Void, but Void saw this coming and held out it's right arm, pushing back the Tyrant with extreme ease. Void then once again grabbed the Tyrant, this time only with the right hand. It then surged a sort of energy through the Tyrant, it's skull visibly melting and rotting, along with the rest of it's bones. Soon, Void let go, the Tyrant collapsing to the ground, it's bones liquid from the radiation.
"I have killed it, father." Void said, giving the thumbs up.
"Good work, Void. do you sense any more oncoming Grimm?" Eric asked, Void scanning the area.
"No immediate threats detected, but I am reading high heat signatures in Mistral City. They seem unnatural." Void said.
"Dammit, she struck while we were away!" Eric cursed. "We have to get back to Mistral City! Cinder's most likely struck!"
"Cinder? I thought that Ruby took care of her back at Beacon." Jaune said.
"It seems not. Perhaps she used the Autumn Maiden's powers to shield herself. We won't be rid of her that easily." Eric said.
"If that's true, then the enemy is one move ahead of us. We'll have to be smart about our next move." Dempsey said.
[Another hour later]
As they approached the city walls, they saw what should have been Mistral soldiers on the walls, but instead they saw White Fang members, patrolling the area.
"What the heck? How could they have taken control of the city within an hour?" Dempsey said.
"It's Adam. He's coming up with these strategies. That's how Beacon fell so fast. We have to cut off the final head of the Taijitu." Eric snarled, tempted to use the G3455 to get everyone inside, but he knew it would be a death trap.
"We have to stop him from awakening the Indominus, but how?" Jaune said.
"We break in and stop him!" Nora said.
"I like that idea!" Papyrus said.
"No! There would be too many, we would lose at least three of us in the battle, if not all of us." Eric said.
"Well, what's your plan then?" Papyrus asked.
"We sneak in. If we can get in unnoticed, we may have a chance to take out both Cinder and Adam, if we do this right." Eric said.
"Aaaand how do we do that?" Nora asked.
"I… don't know." Eric sighed.
"Then we break in!" Papyrus exclaimed, everyone pushing him down.
"Quiet! If they hear us, we'll be shot on the spot!" Dempsey said.
"So what's the plan?" Nora asked.
"Okay, everyone gather around. Here's the plan…" Ruby said, everyone huddling together as Ruby drew out the plan, Void using his camouflage to keep them out of sight.

{Insert DragonBall Z narrator voice here}
It seems Mistral City is in danger. As for the gang, they still do not know what the source of the new Grimm is. Will they succeed in saving the city? Or will they fail to save it and it's citizens? And what of the Indominus? Will they prevent its awakening? Or will Mistral City fall like Beacon? And will Gira keep his promise to revive Eric's dear sister? Stay tuned and find out next chapter in Rose of the Underground!
