Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Daughter of [Redacted]. So, basic information before we start, this story has four OCs: 2 Inheritance Cycle Dragons with Earthland Magic that let's them take on a human form, 1 RWBY Cat Faunus son of Athena, born on Remnant but moved by his mother to Earthland after an incident in his home village, and one PJO daughter of [Redacted] (You didn't think I would tell you right off the bat who her godly parent is, did you?), who was deemed too dangerous to allow to live by Zeus and several others, but the council compromised and sent her to Earthland. Due to what she is, she also has the memories of numerous of her ancestors.

Tuesday, 14 DEC 2021/X793
Earth, U.S.A., Maine, Bar Harbor, just outside of Westover Hall military academy.
POV: Unknown, Third person
Snow fell lightly to the ground as a group of four peculiar individuals walked along through the woods. All four were wearing highly advanced armor that covered every inch of them. The armor was the Mjolnir GEN 2, Mk. V Power Armor.
The first was a male, standing at 6'1", in a CQB variant of the Mjolnir armor system in a light smoke gray, with a maya blue secondary color, and a matching maya blue visor. He had a silver claymore in his hand as he had taken point in the group's formation.
The next was a female, 5'11", and was wearing a black primary and fire orange secondary NOBLE variant armor that had what looked like a fox tail sticking out the back of it, with a deep blue visor, and held two black longswords with a flame design near the guards, one in each hand. She also wore a black full-length hooded cloak like a cape and with its hood down. She was walking at the group's 3 o'clock.
Beside her was another male, 6'5", this one in cyan and teal Prefect armor with a black visor. He wielded a massive teal greatsword with a blade nearly as long as he was tall, and 18 inches wide. This man was at their 9 o'clock.
The final individual was another female, 6', this one was in the ODST variant with an orange primary, blue secondary, and a golden visor. She had an orange Zwiehänder in her hands and was keeping an eye on the group's 6 o'clock.
As they walked, the only sound that could be heard was the snow crunching underneath their boots. Then, the sound of a battle cry could be heard in the distance. A cry that immediately alerted the group as to what kind of individual had used it, and marked them as a friendly. It was a cry that only a demigod would use. A cry of "For Zeus!"
"DPDS, double time it!" The NOBLE wearer said, and all four went from a walk to a sprint instantly. "3, find a spot and set up. Provide cover fire where possible."
At that, the ODST peeled off, her Zwiehänder changing transforming into a sniper rifle as she did so.
A roar of "Yield!" reached the 3 still heading in the direction of the fighting. It had a distinctly French accent. Along with the roar, the same voice that had shouted out the battle cry from earlier responded by yelling out, "Never!"
"4, get over there asap. Give the friendlies a hand."
"Sir." The CQB responded, before suddenly applying a massive burst of speed that kicked up several inches of snow from the ground and propelled him along at easily 75 miles per hour.
"2, flank 'em."
"Aye." And with that, the Prefect peeled off as well. Not even a second later, the sound of a shotgun going off blasted through the area, followed promptly by the thunder of a sniper rifle. Another trio of shotgun blasts sounded off in rapid succession, indicating that a slam fire tactic had been used.
Just after the third shot of slam fire shotgun rounds had sounded out, the NOBLE clad individual reached the clearing near a cliff, and saw that the monster the demigods had encountered was a manticore. It was also flying right at her. She proceeded to engulf her now suddenly empty right fist in flames, before slamming it into the manticore while shouting. "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!" The hit sent the manticore flying yet again, this time into the sightlines of the sniper, and instantly, its tail was lanced by the powerful 14.5x114mm M232 APFSDS round, and it was almost severed completely by it.
"What in Hades?" One of the demigods, a male with sea-green eyes and jet-black hair, muttered.
Then, the beast spoke yet again, "You bastards. Jackson is wanted alive if possible, but you however-"
It didn't get a chance to finish, because in that moment, a familiar teal greatsword slammed into him with the force of a bullet train. The Prefect who wielded the gargantuan weapon backed off almost immediately after the hit. Then, as the beast began to rise once again, a jet-black Bell UH-1Y Venom Utility Helicopter armed with two pods of 7 ARG-20A Advanced Precision Kill Weapon Systems per pod and 2 pintle mounted 7.62x51mm NATO GAU-17/A Miniguns, rose from the mist and activated a nose mounted spotlight. A cursory glance through the windshield of the flying vehicle showed that it was being piloted by people who very much should not have access to a military grade utility helicopter.
"2." The NOBLE clad individual said.
"Way ahead of ya, 1." The Prefect replied, as the 6-foot greatsword began to shift, changing shape to form the large, M41 SPNKr, dual barreled, rocket launcher. Before anyone could react, '2' aimed the launcher and pulled the trigger, sending an M19 surface-to-surface missile at the tail rotor of the heli. It impacted a second later, and blew the rotor and its assembly clean off, sending the gunship into a spiraling decent towards the sea. Not even a moment after the heli began its decent to the sea, the sound of a hunting horn could be heard blaring through the clearing.
"No." The manticore said. "It cannot be-"
Yet again, he was cut off, this time by a glowing silver arrow streaking past the green-eyed demigod and burying itself in the beast's shoulder, sending him staggering backwards, wailing in pain. Another clap of thunder, and another 14.5mm round exploded through the beast's other shoulder, nearly blowing the arm off.
"Curse you!" He shouted, as he flung dozens of spikes from his damaged tail into the woods where the arrow had come from, only for more arrows to expertly split most of them in two, while bursts of 9.5x40mm M634 HP-SAP rounds from a pair of BR85HB Battle Rifles being dual wielded by the NOBLE and matching the color scheme of his swords, slammed into the non-split spikes with pinpoint accuracy. The beast pulled the arrow out of its shoulder, and the green-eyed kid tried to land a hit on the manticore, but was easily batted aside.
After that, the archers came out of the woods. All of them were girls who looked to range in age from 10 to 14 years old. They wore silvery ski parkas and jeans, and were all armed with bows in hand as they advanced on the manticore with determined expressions.
At the archers' appearance, a blonde haired, gray eyed girl cried out, saying, "The Hunters!"
Another girl, this one with a punk look to her, black hair and electric blue eyes, from the original group then muttered, "Oh, wonderful."
One of the older archers stepped forward with her bow drawn. She was tall and graceful with coppery colored skin. Unlike the other girls, she had a silver circlet braided into the top of her long dark hair, so she looked like some kind of Persian princess. "Permission to kill, my lady?"
Her eyes were staring straight at the manticore, meaning that if one didn't know who she was talking to, they wouldn't be able to figure out without a response from the individual in question.
The monster wailed. "This is not fair! Direct interference! It is against the Ancient Laws."
"Not so," Another girl, this one looking to be about 12, said. She had auburn hair gathered back in a ponytail and strange eyes, silvery yellow like the moon. Her face was incredibly beautiful, but her expression was stern and dangerous. "The hunting of all wild beasts is within my sphere. And you, foul creature, are a wild beast." She looked at the older girl with the circlet. "Zoë, permission granted."
The manticore growled in response. "If I cannot have these alive, I shall have them dead!" And with that, it lunged for the green-eyed boy and the blue-eyed girl.
"No!" the blonde yelled, charging the monster. Yet another clap of thunder sounded out, and the tail of the beast was completely severed about halfway down the length of it.
"Get back, half-blood!" the girl with the circlet said. "Get out of the line of fire!"
But the girl leaped onto the monster's back and drove her knife into his mane. The manticore howled, turning in circles with his tail flailing as she hung on for dear life.
"Fire!" Zoë ordered.
"No!" The boy screamed.
But the Hunters let their arrows fly. The first caught the manticore in the neck. Another hit his chest. The manticore staggered backward, wailing, "This is not the end, Huntress! You shall pay!"
And before anyone could react, the monster, with the girl still on his back, leaped over the cliff and tumbled into the darkness.
"Annabeth!" The boy yelled. He started to run after her, but was interrupted by the Hunters advancing on the two groups.
Zoë stopped short when she saw the blue-eyed girl. "You," she said with distaste.
"Zoë Nightshade." The blue-eyed girl's voice trembled with anger. "Perfect timing, as usual."
Zoë scanned the rest of the group. "Seven half-bloods and a satyr, my lady."
"Six half-bloods, a satyr, and two bonded dragons, actually." '4' said as '3' joined the rest of the group, her sniper once again a sword and, like the others of her team, sheathed on her back.
"Yeah, but she hadn't seen me yet, and with the fact that me and 2 have human forms and rarely use our dragon forms now-a-days, I don't blame her for the mistake." '3' retorted.
"Yes," the younger girl said, cutting off any form of response from '4'. "Among them are some of Chiron's campers, I see."
"Annabeth!" The green-eyed boy yelled. "You have to let us save her!"
The auburn-haired girl turned toward him. "I'm sorry, Percy Jackson, but your friend is beyond help."
The now named Percy tried to struggle to his feet, but '2' held him down until two of the Hunters took his place.
"You are in no condition to be hurling yourself off cliffs," the auburn-haired girl said.
"Aye. 'specially with that venom runnin' through 'im. That crap bloody well reeks. Won't kill 'im, but it'll definitely pretty well negate any healing 'sides medical treatments and natural mortal healing." 2 said with a thick Scottish accent.
"Let me go!" He demanded. "Who do you think you are?"
Zoë stepped forward as if to smack him.
"No," the other girl ordered. "I sense no disrespect, Zoë. He is simply distraught. He does not understand." She then looked at '1', "I believe it will be best if your group goes first."
'1' nodded, before she removed her helmet, revealing a young face, about 11, with calm brown eyes and long, wavy black hair that turned either maya blue or fire orange at the tips that tumbled all the way down to her waist and covered her left eye, just above the tail, along with a pair of fox ears on top of her head. As she did so, the others of her group did the same. '2' was revealed to have a black skin tone, with short, almost buzz cut teal hair and eyes. '3' had long, straight fire orange hair that went all the way down to her calves and bright blue eyes. '4', meanwhile, had storm gray eyes and short white hair that faded to maya blue at the tips, with a pair of cat ears nestled in it.

DPDS 4, Master Chief Petty Officer Shun Rylin." '1' said, pointing to each member of the team as she introduced them, simultaneously revealing her canine teeth to be much sharper than normal teeth.
"And I am Artemis," the girl said. "Goddess of the Hunt."

FYI, the "Lieutenant Commander Ruby Rose B-312", is indeed from GreenTheRyno's "Ruby-B312", and her being a Zanpakutō spirit thing is because the multiverse exists in this story, and after Ruby B-312 eventually passed away, due to her capability, she was given the opportunity to become a Zanpakutō spirit, which, because it would allow her to protect even more innocent people, she took it. However, just because one person becomes a Zanpakutō spirit, doesn't mean that all Zanpakutō spirits were once people. In fact, this one is a rare case.
Aside from that, let me know what you think. Please.
