Gravios - Magma Surge
Tekko was seen riding an unseen monster through a GIANT LAKE OF LAVA, an epic and serious look on her face, before her very sizable monster rose from the lava and let out an equally massive roar that cause more lava to burst around them, before the Wyvern fired a beam even more impressive than the last one to completely engulf a Rathian, the Queen of the Land's shadow faintly being seen inside the inferno-like beam.
"That is SO badass!" Jaune cried out.
"I wanna do that now!" Cinder said excitedly.
"That is so awesome! It puts that last laser to shame!" Nora said.
"We might have to get the Ace-Ops one of those creatures." Ironwood decided.
"James, that creature just emerged from molten lava. I'd wager it's much happier in warmer climates, rather than Atlas." Ozpin shut that idea down.
Uragaan - Rolling Shot
Razara was rather comically seen to running in reverse atop her massive, rolling monster as they rolled down a mountain similar to the one Razara and her Tigrex leapt off. The rolling creature then began to catch fire from the speeds and heat they reached, before they flew off the cliff and Razara kicked the creature down towards their target, before it unfurled and brought its massive and powerful chin down on the Rathian they faced.
"Oh, I SO wanna do that!" Yang cried out.
"It looks like so much fun!" Ruby agreed.
"Plus, it'd be a great leg workout." Blake said. Leg day was definitely her favorite, as it helped tone her Bellabooty.
"Am I the only one picturing clown music looking at this?" Neo asked, everyone raising their hand in confirmation.
"Dang. That chin looks like it could hit harder than I can." Hazel stated.
Jaggi - Jaggi Strike
Tekko rode on the back of yet another raptor, which suddenly roared and called in a pack of smaller, but similar-looking raptors, all of them leaping into the air together and slamming their full weight down, feet first onto a Royal Ludroth.
Adam smiled at this. "That's what the White Fang should be like. All coming together for the common goal of destroying the opposition." He stated.
"Or peacefully changing things, right?" Ilia asked, glaring at him along with Blake.
"Uh... Right..." He said, a bit intimidated.
"Still, like Adam said, it is a good metaphor for coming together against a bigger threat." Velvet admitted.
Kecha Wacha - Torrent Glide
A strange elephant-eared and trunked monkey covered its eyes with its ears, which had intimidating eye-like designs on the back, before it leapt into the air, Razara leaping off its back and doing a backflip along with the primate, before it extended its arms to glide with Razara landing on its back like a surfer, before the beast launched a volley of water balls at a large Jaggia, staggering it.
"That looks amazing!" Pyrrha said in amazement.
"Oh, I have SO got to try that!" Coco declared.
"It's like an anteater, flying squirrel, elephant lemur. Am I close?" Ren asked.
"Kecha Wacha. They live in forests They're curious about anything new, but they'd rather flee than fight." Katana said.
"They're adorable! I can't wait to see if we'll have any around Patch!" Summer said excitedly.
Yian Garuga - Barrel Charge
The Black Wolf Bird let out a cry as it flew high in the sky with Tekko on its back, before it dove down and flew towards the enemy, rocketing forward at great speed with an aileron roll, before diving down even further out of the sky, almost hitting the ground before it pulled up and slammed into the Rathian they were contending with.
"Oh, yeah! That's my baby!" Roman cheered.
"Perhaps I should incorporate more rotations into my own flying style as well." Penny thought.
"I've always liked doing some acrobatics in the air, both in bird form and human form." Qrow agreed.
"Slamming into a way bigger monster like that? I'm surprised you and that Garuga didn't shatter." Emerald told Tekko.
"Hello, Kinship, remember? I was channeling my energy into the monster to strengthen it. And in case it hasn't been obvious by now: demon energy? Pretty epic." Tekko explained.
Congalala - Foul Burst
The gorilla-like beast rushed towards its enemy, all the while Tekko was flinging various mushrooms ahead of it from on its back, the beast gobbling them all down before coming to a hard stop and drifting to turn its rear to the enemy, from which it released a massive blast of gas at the poor Gypceros. [1]
Everyone wa repulsed by its attack, but Ruby, Nora and Yang couldn't help but laugh. "Boy, I feel sorry for the poor sucker that gets hit by that stink bomb." Nora said.
"It's certainly a... unique way of disorienting one's opponent." Ozpin stated.
"If by unique, you mean disgusting, I completely agree, sir." Glynda corrected.
And of course, none were more repulsed than the Schnee sisters. "I did NOT just see that! I did NOT just see that!" Weiss kept repeating.
"Honestly, Tekko. You are a young lady. Surely, you could come up with a more refined technique than that." Winter scolded.
"Hey, it works, doesn't it? And besides, if there's one monster that deserves that kind of treatment, it's Gypceros." Tekko defended herself.
Zinogre - Voltage Crash
A Zinogre charged through the darkness of night, only lit up occasionally by lightning strikes, before the Fanged Wyvern howled and illuminated itself and Razara as she rode on its back, the Thunder Wolf Wyvern leaping into the air, surrounding the two of them with electricity as it came hurtling down towards the ground, letting out one more powerful howl before it crashed into the ground, creating a giant series of cracks through it, before creating a giant electrical explosion that put Khezu's to shame, demolishing their Barroth opponent.
"Awesome!" Nora cheered.
"Oh, man! Just imagine how much stronger monsters would be if we unlocked their aura! Maybe they could do these attacks on their own!" Yang said.
"I'd have to load up with enough thunder dust to fry my whole body to do that." Hazel stated.
"The way it was so well hidden in the darkness, before lighting up the area itself at the last minute. Zinogre is truly an awe-inspiring force." Ren declared.
Nargacuga - Dark Trash
A Nargacuga stood in its fighting stance in the dead of night, Tekko sat firmly on the creature's back before its eyes suddenly flashed red, rushing in at blinding speed and moving to the left, before rushing in and slashing a Nerscylla before it could even react, then vanishing and reappearing, before rushing in and slashing the Temnoceran again while the beast appeared to be sitting still. This tactic was repeated several times, before delivering one final slash as everything went red, the monsters and rider only a silhouette against the imagery, before the Nerscylla collapsed.
"Eek!" Velvet cried out in fear, leaping behind the couch. "Scary..." She said, her prey instincts in full effect.
"Amazing..." Blake said in awe, absolutely loving the attack.
"That was awesome, Blake! I love how it came in from all those different angles and looked like it was going so fast, the Nerscylla didn't even know it was happening!" Ilia said excitedly.
"Indeed. It may be even faster than I am, if I had to move from place to place to cut at all the different angles." Adam stated.
"I'd expect nothing less from Blake's monster." Emerald praised.
Rathalos - Sky-High Dive
The king of the skies roared at their opponent, before shooting forward, flying just above the ground, before rising high into the air, piercing through the clouds above and coming to a stop, before extending one of its legs as it channeled fire into it, along with Razara channeling her own energy, the two of them catching fire from the speeds they reached as the Rathalos prepared for a monumental, fiery kick. They finally came divebombing out of the air and slamming into their opponent, making an explosion that created an enormous pillar of fire, before they landed a safe distance away and spun in a half circle to look back, devastating the Royal Ludroth they were facing.
"Whoa! Nice fireworks!" Qrow said.
"That is amazing! That kick was incredible! I could really feel you guys working together, like partners should!" Summer stated.
"Summer is right. It's clear you added quite a bit of power to that technique and the column of flame speaks for itself." Ozpin praised.
"It almost looks like what Alatreon did. If it's even close to that powerful, you two clearly did something right." Ironwood agreed.
Tekko and her Silver Rathalos performed a similar move, but when it came time to dive out of the air, they dove down headfirst and the Rathalos launched a massive fireball from its mouth, resulting in numerous explosions that looked like several fireballs connected together as the two watched from up high.
"Ooh, now that's more like it. Those are fireworks." Cinder said in approval.
"Yeah, that'll definitely toast you a marshmallow." Roman agreed.
"Or toast you if you get anywhere near close enough to toast a marshmallow." Neo said with a deadpanned expression.
Lagiacrus - Thunderous Blast
The king of the leviathans dove into the ocean during a storm, swimming rapidly in a circle deep below the waves to create a massive whirlpool, before rocketing up to the surface, creating several waterspouts and swimming through the main one, before bursting out of it along with Razara, the two encompassed in a massive orb of electricity. The beast then shot out another orb of electricity from its mouth, creating another massive electrical explosion that easily brought down their Kecha Wacha enemy.
"Amazing. I'm truly starting to believe that the power these monsters can achieve will literally never cease to amaze us." Glynda stated.
"And that's merely the power of a normal Lagiacrus, so imagine what your rare species could do." Ironwood added.
"Hopefully we never have to find out." Coco said, a bit nervously.
"Unless it's on Team Cardin." Emerald said with a smirk, getting chuckles from the other students.
Deviljho - Hunger Rage
Navirou prepared to eat a Well-Done Steak on a bone, before noticing some saliva dripping from the Deviljho's mouth as it eyed the meat hungrily. The Violent Wyvern then roared as Navirou freaked out and ran towards the enemy, the Deviljho giving chase despite Tekko's best efforts to reign in the beast. Navirou quickly devoured the meat and threw the bone away before diving to the side as the Brute Wyvern leapt for the bone, snapping it in half in mid-air and then diving down on and slamming into their Velocidrome enemy.
Despite being afraid of it, the group could help but laugh at this. "Well, that's definitely one way to get a Deviljho moving." Glynda said.
"Yeah. Good to know if a Deviljho shows up when I'm hunting some Grimm, I can just throw some jerky at them and he'll go for it." Qrow chuckled.
"Poor Navirou." Ruby and Velvet said.
"I know you said he was irritating, but that hardly means he should be eaten." Penny said worriedly.
"Although, he probably could have picked a better time to be eating. Still, I'm glad he's okay." Pyrrha agreed.
"Why didn't you try harder to stop your Deviljho?" Blake asked.
"Does it look like I wasn't trying? Anything else I could have tried probably would have hurt Crushjaw and I'd rather lose Navirou than him." Tekko stated.
"But, how do you manage to keep a Deviljho under control with its relentless hunger?" Winter asked.
"We just fed him a bunch of stuff that slowed his metabolism down. That and I can make the food he needs in a second." Tekko explained, creating a steak on a platter that was the same size as her, much to everyone's amazement.
Great Baggi - Lullabite
Tekko rode atop yet another raptor, significantly larger than the other ones. Similar to the Great Jaggi, it let out a roar, which called many smaller versions of itself to its side, before they all leapt into the air and came down face first, all of them delivering a vicious chomp all at the same time, staggering the Queropeco the were fighting, before causing it to fall asleep.
"Just how many raptors are there?!" Weiss cried out in shock.
"There's at least six more kinds we didn't use in this video." Tekko answered. [2]
"Raptors that can induce sleep with their bites. Those could be very useful for subduing larger monsters." Winter stated.
"That would likely end the fight quickly and with minimal injury to both parties. Excellent idea, Winter!" Penny praised.
Barioth - Ground Cyclone
Razara was on the back of the Ice Tusk Wyvern as it held itself high up in the air, before firing a beam of ice down at the ground, which created a line of ice spikes shooting towards their enemy, before shattering into a massive ice tornado that launched the Deviljho they were facing into the air, freezing it and battering it with ice chunks, before causing it to fall to the ground HARD.
"Awesome! That's kind of one I'd expect from one of the Schnee's." Jaune said.
"It's so cool!" Ruby said, before gasping and realizing what she said. "I did NOT mean that as a pun!" She clarified.
"But you still made one! I'm so proud of you!" Yang cheered, hugging her sister.
"Definitely in my top three." Blake said, proud of seeing another cat-like being being so powerful.
"You definitely seem most comfortable with that Barrioth." Ironwood noted.
"Yeah. Crystal is my main monster. She's always there for me." Razara said, summoning her Barioth and happily jumping onto and laying on its back.
Brachydios - Brachy Blow
The Brachydios pulled back its fist in preparation for a massive punch, Tekko mimicking the movements to send her power into the monster. The Wyvern's eye then flashed as its fist caught fire. As it prepared to throw the punch forward, it had a flashback of all of its training with Tekko: pulling a log that she rode on while providing words of encouragement, jumping rope while Tekko watched on in approval and even stepping up to help it train its punches on occasion. That memory provided encouragement as it threw the punch with full force, bringing down their Pink Rathian opposition.
"Aww, that's so sweet." Pyrrha said adoringly.
"Yeah. It really looks like you took a lot of time and care training your Brachydios." Jaune stated.
"Uh-huh. Cuffs is my second closest after Crushjaw." Tekko confirmed.
"Cuffs?" Coco asked.
"Short for Fisticuffs." Tekko explained.
"But... how are we seeing its memories?" Emerald asked.
"Don't question it!" Neo shushed her.
"That was epic! I love training montages in movies!" Yang cried out, looking to her Rajang. "Raiden! We should totally try some of that!" She told the Fanged Beast.
(Let's do it!) The Gold Lion beast roared.
"Reminds me of all the time I should have spent training with Gretchen, making sure she was ready for Beacon." Hazel said, turning to his Brachydios. "But together, we'll train and make sure we're ready for anything." He told the beast.
Kirin - Phantasm Horn
Lightning struck down on a mountain top as a Kirin reared back onto its hindlegs while Razara pointed down at their enemy. The Elder Dragon then leapt from foothold to foothold as it jumped down the mountain, lightning striking behind it with each movement, before they reached the bottom and the Kirin lowered its head, its horn glowing with power as it rushed forward, moving as fast as a flash of lightning itself, electricity trailing behind it before rushed past the Iodrome they were facing, cutting it with its horn and allowing the lightning to do a lot of extra damage.
"Aww, yeah! Fear the power of my thunder pony!" Nora cried out, hugging Sigrun again.
"Beautiful, yet deadly and full of energy. It fits you perfectly Nora." Ren told her.
"And respect for the extra lightning flash at the end, as if getting sliced by a huge unicorn horn wasn't enough." Cinder added.
"It pays to be thorough." Hazel stated.
Monoblos - Demolition Dash
The Monoblos roared and reared its head back, slamming its head and horn into the ground, before rushing forward at Tekko's command. Its horn began to visibly heat up as it rushed forward, allowing it to slash through a Sand Barioth like nothing, the Pseudo-Wyvern not even realizing it'd been hit for a moment before a wave of pain washed over it and made it collapse.
Adam smirked at this. "Smart. It's using the ground to heat up its horn to make it easier to slash through its target. I've been thinking of adding some form of addition to Blush in order to heat up Wilt's blade for when I don't have Moonslice prepared." He noted.
"Clever idea, Mr. Taurus. With how thick and powerful these monster's hides appear to be, we may all need to look into increasing the cutting power of our weapons and penetrating power of our ammunition. Some of us may actually need to start carrying bladed weapons with gun attachments." Glynda said, starting to wonder if her trusty crop, even with powerful dust that allowed her minor weather manipulation, would be enough against most monsters.
"Laser-based weaponry may also be useful for heat-treating and weakening their shells or horns as well." Penny pointed out, having seen in one of the memories of the future Katana showed them that she used her laser to weaken a Megaliaths tusk, allowing Ruby to sever said tusk and make the Megaliath fall on it.
Seregios - Piercing Stars
Razara and her Seregios flew straight up, high into the air while doing an aileron roll, before the Wyvern of a Thousand Blades pulled its wings inward, before shooting them out to the sides, causing countless numbers of its scales to come off, all aimed down at the opponent, who now seemed literally faced against a thousand blades. the scales then became alight with energy before the Seregios dived down, the scales soon following and shooting past the Ride and Rider, raining down on the Cephadrome they battled, before Seregios came down on it with a devastating diving kick, knocking the sand dweller down.
"It's like a meteor shower of blades!" Ruby said with stars in her eyes.
"So beautiful! All those blades would be plenty! And if they aren't, that kick should take down anything!" Summer said, throwing a few kicks from her seated position. She made it a point to employ a good number of physical moves into her style along with her weapon.
"Amazing. It keeps the enemy pinned and leaves it open for maximum damage! Imagine if our whole team could capitalize on that!" Velvet said.
"You and Quickshot will be wiping out whole hordes of Grimm on your own!" Coco told her.
The Great Poogie - Poogie March
Tekko rode atop a large black and white pig with a scar over one of its eyes, with dozens, if not at least a hundred other, smaller pigs running behind them in a full-on stampede. They charged towards a Pink Rathian, who rightly looked confused, but disregarded the danger, believing that it wouldn't be hurt by such tiny beasts, but was proven wrong as it was sent flying and then crashing to the ground.
Everyone could only blink in shock and confusion. "Well, that was... something." Ilia said.
"Yeah, something ridiculous." Roman added.
"Seriously, I know there's strength in numbers, but all those tiny pigs taking down a dragon like that is nonsense. If they were full-sized pigs, than maybe, but all those tiny ones? No way." Winter refused to believe what she just saw.
"Perhaps there's more to these pigs than meets the eye?" Ozpin theorized.
"They're called Poogies. People usually have them as pets. They're pretty clever and dig up useful things from time to time. But, make them mad and they can certainly knock a hunter on their butt." Katana stated.
Glavenus - Crossblaze
The Glavenus ignited its tail on the ground as it rushed towards the enemy, shooting a fireball from its mouth at its foe, causing an explosion that staggered the Gravios. But this proved to be just a distraction, as it looked up to see Razara and her Glavenus spinning in the air, the sword tail in the beasts mouth to further ignite the blade, before delivering an almighty cross slash, slicing through a massive chunk of the ground, leaving behind a lot of heat, which caused an explosion soon after the slash that saw the Gravios collapse to the floor.
"Oh, my gods!" Ruby and Jaune cried out together.
"Did you see that giant red X it made on the ground!? That was so awesome!" Jaune said in amazement, mimicking Nora and leaping against Guillotine and hugging the side of his face, even hanging on as the Brute Wyvern stood to his full height.
"And that explosion following it was so cool!" Ruby cheered, bouncing excitedly.
The other sword-wielders were impressed as well. "I think I'd need to make like a hundred fire clones to do that. I MIGHT be able to make a big cut like that with an energy wave, though. Just not as big." Blake said.
"I'm sure you and Guillotine will be amazing when you can do things like that, Jaune." Pyrrha told him.
Teostra - Sea of Flame [3]
A massive wall of flames was all that could be seen, before Razara and her Teostra leapt out of it, rushing at the opponent with a waved of fire and lava just behind them. They then flew high into the air before the fire and lava could wash over them, before the Teostra roared and breathed down a beam of incredible fire and heat and the ground, easily cutting through a layer of the crust, before all the heat built up and created an incredible explosion, bigger than any previously seen with several different colors of flames due to the intensity in different areas.
Everyone, even Cinder, was intimidated by the sea of fire and lava the Teostra created. "That's incredible! It would probably take all my Maiden powers to even cause half that much fire and lava!" Cinder said in amazement.
"Man, I'm really glad you're on our side now. I would NOT want to have to deal with that." Coco said.
"A-And we value your friendship, of course!" Velvet quickly added for her leader.
"And Lunastra can probably do the same thing. So I bet with her by your side, Salem will be afraid of you next time you see her, Cinder." Emerald said encouragingly.
"Just make sure you can keep her under control, Fall." Ironwood warned.
Luna growled at this, folding her wings and front legs protectively in front of Cinder. (I don't bother with insects unless they anger me, Ironwood. And you're coming close. Don't give me any more reason to fry you.) She warned.
Kushala Daora - Terrifying Tempest
Kushala let out a deafening roar, which could be heard over the five tornadoes it created all at once, before it flew higher up into the air with Tekko, the tornadoes somehow merging with the dragon into one even more massive, icy tornado, which followed them as they did a loop de loop, before coming down and crashing on their target, creating a massive, icy explosion rivaling the one created by Teostra.
"Well, that would make quite the breeze." Ozpin said, clearly impressed.
"And likely destroy any nearby buildings or structures, sir." Glynda stated in annoyance, knowing she'd have to fix that.
"Hope you like roller coasters, Oz, because that's what it looks like you're in for if you try that move with Ozymandias." Qrow laughed.
"When you put it like that, that actually makes it look really fun." Summer stated.
Rajang - Thundering Meteor
Rajang's eyes flashed with fury and purpose as it roared, going golden and slamming its fists down into the ground, sending enormous cracks through it, which then filled with energy and exploded, sending countless boulder flying into the air. It then spotted one boulder in particular and leapt up to it using several other boulders as platforms to reach it, grabbing onto it and, along with Razara, channeling a massive amount of electricity into it, until it looked like a golden meteor, which Rajang then flung down on their Iodrome opponent, creating one final, but equally epic and massive electrical explosion.
Ruby, Neo, Nora and especially Yang were blown away by the attack. "Oh, my gosh! Sis! That was so amazing!" Ruby cried out.
"I know, right! He hurled that meteor like nothing!" Yang said excitedly.
"And that explosion was awesome! Look at all that thunder power!" Nora cheered.
"Just as explosive as your personality." Neo giggled, wrapping her arms around Yang. "It's perfect for the two of you." She told the blonde.
"So, what did you all think?" Katana asked.
"That was amazing! All the attacks were so cool! And a lot of them were so funny!" Ruby said, giggling.
"I think its heartwarming to see these monsters come together with people to combine their power and use techniques neither one would be able to do on their own." Weiss declared.
"And I believe it reinforced just how incredible all these creatures truly are." Ozpin stated.
"Yep. Sucks some of us didn't see ours, but I get it." Qrow said.
"Maybe some time in the future, Stilts." Summer told him.
"Yeah! Those are gonna be super fun to do ourselves!" Yang said excitedly, then smirked and looked at Blake. "I bet Blake would love to get herself an Arzuros and do its Kinship move to get some fish." She laughed.
"Miss Goodwitch! Yang is profiling me because I'm a Faunus!" Blake snitched.
Glynda was about to lecture Yang on being offensive, but Katana stopped her. "Blake, you really do need to stop being offended by every. little. cat joke. Yang's right, you need to learn to laugh at yourself. Instead of being an over sensitive little snowflake." Katana told the Cat Faunus.
"HA, told you." Yang said proudly.
"But-" Blake tried to argue.
"Of course, if you had better self-control over you animal urges and cravings, you wouldn't be such a easy target to poke fun of." Katana added.
"I mean... She kind of has a point, Blake." Emerald admitted.
"Yeah. Any time you even HEAR the word fish, you get even more excited than I do about cookies." Ruby agreed.
"Excuse me? I have plenty of self-control." Blake declared defiantly, crossing her arms.
Katana then had a Red Helm Arzuros appear in the room and in between it and Blake was a large, fresh fish. "Well then, now's the time to prove it. All you have to do, is let that Arzuros eat that fish- and your already going for it." The ice demon said, deadpanning as, true to her assumption, Blake made for the fish before the bear did, on all fours no less.
Also in the middle of the brawl, they could clearly see she was losing. "JUST GIVE HIM THE FISH!" Weiss yelled.
"NEVER!" Blake declared.
Yang, Ren, Qrow, Cinder and even Adam just shake their heads at the pathetic sight of her stubborn addition. [4]
Finally, the Arzuros Deviant threw Blake back into the couch and ate the fish, before disappearing. Blake had several bruises, cuts and bite marks, including a vicious one on her butt. But luckily, Katana healed all her injuries instantly. Emerald then helped Blake up. "We're working on your self-control the next break we get. No excuses." She told the Faunus princess in a tone that left no room for argument.
"So, what's next?" Ren asked.
"That would be a mighty elder dragon, the true ruler of storms, a leviathan of the sky. The mighty... Amatsu." Katana declared, starting the next video.
A/N: Thank you as always for reading! I hope you enjoyed!
[1] Again, I know it was a great Jaggi in the video, but Tekko wouldn't be able to do that to one of the monsters she rode, even if its not the same one.
[2] with the lesser raptors being lumped in with their Dromes, the absent six are Giadrome, Great Wroggi, Great Maccao, Great Izuchi, Kulu Ya-Ku and Tzitzi Ya-Ku, although those last two are for obvious reasons.
[3] There is no English name for those last few Kinship attacks and I can't translate the names, so I had to make something up. I hope they were decent.
[4] Thanks to qazse for this scene as well. The idea for the scene was supposed to be in the last chapter, but I rushed to finish it and forgot the scene.
