Blake's Funhouse
(The song Sunshine, Lollypops and Rainbows plays in the background)
Blake's POV
5 Months before the story
The scene opens up to a cartoon styled world. The sun is in the sky with a wide smiley face as four characters skip through a path with a forest full of smiling trees as a rainbow streaks over the sky with cartoonish swinging arms. In the front of the pack is a snow white haired Faunus with two shoulder length, rainbow dyed pigtails. Her amber eyes have a cartoonish adorable glint to them, she sports a cartoonish grin and her body is chibified. She is wearing a white tank top showing a lot of cleavage. On the front of the tank top is a white cat eared human skull with star shaped eye sockets and a huge rainbow grin. She has a rainbow colored ribbon wrapped around each of her arms. She is wearing a knee length, bright pink combat skirt with a rainbow striped belt. She is also wearing bright pink combat boots with rainbow colored laces and black poppies on the sides.
Behind her is Mr. Bang Bang, an anthropomorphized M1919 machine gun walking with the gun pointed straight up. It has stick figure arms and legs and a disembodied mouth and wide pink eyes at the center of the 30' long bright pink barrel. The stock is 29' long and has a bright white color. Below the grip is a small pink box that has an ammo belt which feeds into the gun.
This figure is followed by Dr. Boomington, an anthropomorphized Gatling Style Auto Cannon. It has seven barrels measuring 7'6" in length, each a different color of the rainbow, and two white rings of metal to hold the barrels together much like Gianduja. Like the previous weapon, it has wide, blue eyes and a disembodied mouth mid way up the barrels. He also has a black rimmed monocle over his left eye and a black top hat. He holds a black walking stick in his left hand with a red diamond at the top end. It also has a white ammo box that measures 3' tall, 1' wide and 3' long. On top of the box is a handle to hold onto and at the back is a pink stock to hold on to. An ammo belt comes out of the box and feeds 30X173 mm rounds into the gun itself.
Behind Dr. Boomington is Mrs. Stabby, a nightmarish looking Rapier sword/ Jagdkommando Tridagger combo. She has all the anthropomorphized features as the other weapon, except her eyes are blood red. She has a silver cup hilt with her personal symbol engraved on all four sides and 3' long spike pommel. The blade itself is a white 4' long blade with three serrated edges that twist around each other. The blade is rotating slowly like a drill, but the face stays in the same place. The four of them come across the cartoonized chain saw wielding White Fang Lieutenant, who waves enthusiastically at them.
(Music Stops)
A flash of lightning suddenly transitions them back to reality as Blake happily skips through a dark hallway with no sign of her friends other than Mrs. Stabby, who is fastened to her belt. The White Fang Lieutenant is shaking in fear with his back pressed as hard as he possibly can against the wall. His eyes are squeezed shut and he is pathetically whimpering. There is a wet patch on his left pant leg and a puddle of yellow liquid pooling below his shoe. As she finally walks out of view of the terrified man, another flash of lightning transitions back to the cartoon forest.
? POV
A 6'4" tall man with black bull horns is sitting on the side of a queen sized bed in a rather bare looking bedroom. He is wearing a black and red Kabuto style helmet with a Y shaped golden blade like crest on the front. His blue eyes are peaking out from a black and red Oni styled mask (Mengu) with an enraged expression and a large red bushy mustache. He has a red samurai styled two piece chest plate (Dou) with black leather on it. Hanging from a black leather belt is a red and black plated skirt to protect his lower body (Kusazuri) and a set of black and red thigh guards (Haidate) with black and red shin guards (Suneate). His black and red squared pauldrons (Sode) with black have gold blade like crest which curve upward as they move away from his body and he is wearing a pair of red armored glove sleeves (Kote). All together, he is the spitting image of a Samurai. He places his weapon on the bed, a black scabbard that contains a red sword known as Wilt and Blush.
He removes the helmet and the mask, revealing his blood red hair in a Chonmage style with a folded bun at the back with the sides of his head shaved. His skin is chalk white and he has black veins on his face. This is Adam Taurus, a Grimmkin Bull Faunus. He gives off a tired sigh as he runs a hand through his hair before removing his Kote as well, revealing his chalk white, black veined arms. He has a gold band around his right ring finger. "You seem upset, want to talk about it?" A calm feminine voice says from behind him. A women with pale white skin, long black hair and amber eyes wearing nothing but a purple bathrobe appears in the doorway of the adjoined bathroom. She has a similar gold band on her right ring finger as well.
He sighs as he removes his Sode as well, placing them on a nearby table with the Kote. "It's Blake; I just don't know what to do with her anymore Cinder." He says with a hint of sorrow in his voice. Cinder frowns at the mention of the troubled girl. She places a hand on his shoulder, getting him to turn his attention to her. "Honey, I know how you feel about her; my heart breaks every time I think about her condition; but you heard what the doctors said. The tumors on her brain are benign, but they can't be removed without killing her." The man growls in frustration. "I know, but it's just not right! It's not her fault that she was sexual abused as a child by her father's associates, nor was it her fault that the dust compound used to make her forget those advances gave her the tumors in the first place! Her father knew it was happening, he even knew what the dust compound would do to her, but he didn't care!" He yells, as tears threaten to erupt from his eyes.
Cinder appears to be on the verge of tears as well. "And he paid for his crimes with his life. You made sure of that when you killed him and ran away with her. I know it's a horrible situation, but you and I both know just how dangerous she is. I hate to say this, but there really isn't anything else we can do. I know you hate the idea of abandoning her, but we have to think about the safety of everyone else around us. She's a loose cannon." He shakes head as a small, wistful smirk appears on his face. "Are you sure you're not just saying that because she has a crush on me?" He says weakly. Cinder rolls her eyes at this. "It's not as much of a crush as it is obsession." She says as Adam sighs again.
"I know, I've already contacted someone to help me get her to a hospital I found that specializes in mentally ill hunters. A civilian hospital would be far too dangerous for her." He says. Cinder leans down to kiss him on the lips. "I know it's hard, but it really is for the best thing you can do, for us and her." She says after parting from him. Unknown to them, a certain White haired Faunus was nearby, listening in on the entire conversation. An angry scowl forms on her face as she stomps off toward her room. Unknown to her, a group of men in white jackets come following in behind her.
Blake's POV
3 months before the story
Cartoon Blake has an angry scowl on her face as she sits at a round table having a tea party with Mr. Bang Bang, Dr. Boomington and Mrs. Stabby. "Who does that stupid man stealing whore think she is, trying to get rid of me!" She says angrily, prompting a chorus of children booing. "I know, it's so obvious she's jealous of the relationship between you and Adam!" Mrs. Stabby says with a squeaky feminine voice. "Yeah, we should just get rid of her! Then you'll have Adam all to yourself!" Mr. Bang Bang says with a more masculine, but still squeaky voice, followed by cheering children. "I've been trying to do that for ages, but nothing ever works!" Blake says in an exasperated tone. A deep clearing of the throat brings their attention to Dr. Boomington.
He adjusts takes his monocle off and pulls out a wash cloth from who knows where to clean it off. "Perhaps the problem is that you've been too subtle my child. A harlot like Cinder is clearly too thick headed to understand her status as an inferior woman. It might be time to resort to more violent measures." He says with a deep voice as he puts his monocle back in place. The children gasp in response. "Violent? THAT'S OUR WORD OF THE DAY!" Blake screams, as the children cheer. She turns to face an unseen crowd and says "V-I-O-L-E-N-T! Violent!" She exclaims, triggering another round of cheers. "Hmm, but what should I do… Do you have any ideas?" She says staring back into the nonexistent audience.
"Pluck her eyes out of her skull and make her eat them!" A little girl's voice says. "Violate her anus with a rusty rail road spike!" A young boy says. "Cut her head off and feed her body to the Grimm!" another little girl's voice says. "Shove a dust grenade into her vagina and blow her up from the inside!" Another boy says. "Stab her in the guts with Ms. Stabby and turn her torso to goo with her gore fan function!" Another girl says. Blake adopts a thinking pose after hearing all these suggestions. She jumps for joy and enthusiastically says "Those are great ideas! But how am I supposed to decide which one to use?"
"Why not use them all?" Mr. Bang Bang says. "Of course! You can wait until she gets into the shower, then start by plucking her eyes out and feeding them to her, then you can violate her anus with a rusty rail road spike while shoving a dust grenade into her vagina, just wait to pull the pin until later." Dr. Boomington says. Ms. Stabby jumps excitedly as the top half of the three blade edge unravels to form three separate blades. The blades spin rapidly as she giggles happily. "Then you can stab her with Mrs. Stabby and engage the gore fan while it's inside, shredding her internal organs to pieces before pulling the pin on the grenade and chopping off her head. After that, you can feed what is left over to the Grimm." Dr. Boomington adds sagely.
Blake gasps as her eyes go cartoonishly wide. "It's perfect!" She exclaims, getting a round of cheers and applause from the unseen children. "Thanks a lot kids! I love you, buh-bye!" She says as she and the others wave enthusiastically. They break into a round of applause themselves just as a flash of lightning goes off, revealing that Blake has a glowing blue collar around her neck and she is wrapped in a strait jacket. She sitting in the corner of a white padded room as the wall explodes from the other side. She is so dazed by the explosion that she can't even see more than a silhouette of a man undoing the jacket and removing the collar. "Come on kid; let's get you out of here. You'll have a great time serving the Ozman Empire." He says. He throws her combat outfit and weapons toward her before walking out of the room. "Get dressed; we'll need to get you trained properly over the next month."
Blake's POV
2 months before the story.
Blake is standing on a rock outcropping in the middle of a large forest clearing. The corpses of thousands of Grimm lay decaying on the field as she fires Mr. Bang Bang into a crowd of tens of thousands of approaching Grimm of many different species. She has six glowing white M134 miniguns surrounding her firing at the Grimm as well, causing them to fall into a pile as they climb over the corpses of their fallen comrades. Eventually, the bodies build up to a point that they are higher than the rock themselves, so she jumps toward the wall of dead Grimm and stands on top of it, unleashing a torrential wave of bullets, both aura and real. The Grimm begin to pile up as the radio comes to life.
"We can't hold the line, Shion is done for!" A soldier says over the radio. "We can't let that happen. If these Grimm make it through then every village outside of Mistral will be doomed." Their commander says. The line goes silent for a second and the commander sighs. "I want all our men out of Shion. If we can't hold it then we'll blow it and the Grimm to pieces." He says. The radio goes silent yet again before another soldier replies. "He's right, there's nothing we can do now. We have to think about the safety of the rest of the villages." A series of streams of lights come flying out around the village seconds later. "We're all clear sir." Another man says. "Monty help us all… Belladonna, make it happen." The commander says somberly.
Blake grins manically before pressing a button on the bottom of Mr. Bang Bang, causing it to disappear in a puff of smoke. She snatches a small, pill shaped pod with a button on top from the cloud and throws it into one of her pockets on her combat skirt. There's a look of madness in her eyes as she enthusiastically screams "OH BOY! IT'S MEGA BOOM BOOM TIME!"
A flash of lightning transitions them back to the cartoon world. Blake, Mr. Bang Bang, Dr. Boomington and Mrs. Stabby fly into the sky as the fields and ruined forests surrounding the partially burning wreckage of Shion, which appears to be a very sizable village, burst with spontaneously growing flowers of differing shapes, colors and sizes that spread around for miles. Another flash of lightning goes off to reveal that the 'flowers' are actually an assortment of hundreds of M134 miniguns, dozens of M198 Howitzer Cannons and a pair of Schwerer Gustav 800 mm cannons towering over the rest of the guns toward the rear.
The fields light up with the cacophony of cannon and gun fire as the village, the villagers and the Grimm are subject to what one could suspect as the end of the world. A group of villagers with guns are retreating from an advancing pack of hundreds of Beowolves, occasionally stopping to open fire on the Grimm, only for a hail of bullets to rips them all to shreds.
Inside of a burning house, a family surrounded by Grimm are attempting to escape. The father is holding the Grimm at the doorway as the mother throws a one year old out the window, down to their seven year old daughter who is already on the ground outside, only for the entire building to erupt in an explosion as an artillery shell slams into the building. In a split second response, the sister throws the baby away just as the explosion consumes her as well.
From there a flash of lightning transitions the scene to a close up shot of Blake as she giggles happily at the sight of explosions of color going off all over the village as the villagers cheer for their savior. Suddenly, another flash of lightning transitions back to reality, where Blake's face is contorted into a fit of psychotic laughter with tears streaming down her face. The scene begins to shift between cartoonish images of happy, celebrating villagers and utter chaos and destruction at an ever accelerating rate, with Blake in the background as the point of view gets closer and closer to Blake's fate. Eventually, the transitions become so rapid that the world itself gets twisted into a mangled mix of cartoon and reality.
And just as fast as it started, it suddenly stops as reality takes over again. The girl flies into the series of craters and debris that was once Shion. She stops as she hears the sounds of a baby crying. A flash of lightning transitions back to cartoon world, and Blake sees the crying baby. Her eyes widen and she says "Oh no! That baby must be hungry!" She says before looking around the area. She spots a bottle of milk not too far away as she picks the crying child up. She rushes over and picks it up before putting it into the baby's mouth. "Here you go." She says as a flash of lightning switches back to reality yet again, showing that the 'bottle of milk' is actually a pistol. The scene pans out to the village as a lone gunshot is heard before fading to black.
A/N: Wow… That one was dark. There you have it guys, my vision of 'Wake'. An eternally cheerful, tragically insane girl with a nightmarish past that turned her into a monster. If I'm being honest, part of me truly hates what I turned Blake into. She's one of my favorite characters. I chose her first because I wanted to make sure you understand the direction this fic is going. It's not all going to be heart break and nightmares, I simply can't write a story like that. Overall, 'Wake' and 'Bluby' are going to be my darkest characters, so I decided to start with Blake and end with Ruby.
The next one up is going to be 'Rang'. I promise you that her story will be a much more light hearted one that will allow you to see Yang Xiao Long in a way you've never imagined her. I'd also like to say that some of the character's sizes are going to change. Yang in particular has been reduced to a mere 4'9", about an inch shorter than Neo. Pyrrha is also going to be shorter whereas Weiss and Nora are going to be taller.
