"Young man? Are you alright." The doctor asked me with concern.
Though I was just silent.
I just couldn't believe it man...my family gone...not just that, my dogs, my cousins. My friends, my old teachers, some of them I used to hate. My grandmas, my...brothers…
My heart aches badly so badly… I mean I've read Rwby fanfics and some transported stories where the main character or original character were transported. Yeah they had family sisters in that one fanfic, but…
Holy shit...I want to die…
Sigh
I'll humor this guy… "No...no I am not okay…" no point on lying.
The doctor nodded. "Well after get a bit of information off your would you like to talk about it?"
I shook my head. I wasn't ready honestly, not yet.
"Well okay then. So what is your name?" He asked as he pulled out a clipboard.
"Angel, Gabriel Lara," I said without missing a beat.
The doctor gave me a strange look. Guess it's true that people on remnant are named after colors, at least I think? Who knows I don't care at the moment.
"Unique name. Alright how old are you?"
"19."
Soon as I say that he stops and looks at me like I just said something stupid. "19?"
I know I'm in pain, however they say I just had to snark. "What? You didn't notice my beard?" I reached an touched my face and–
The fuck? Where's my beard?! I'm clean shaven what the fuck?! Unless...oh that's low, unless I've been rejuvenated to my younger self. How old does he think I am?
"Umm how old do you think I am?" I ask.
"At best? 15"
Why was I so young?! Oh god now I have to deal with hormones again! Hopefully I can control my ass slapping urges, yeah I got this bro.
Yeah I slapped asses back in my day, dumbest thing I did, but not Guilty for enjoying it.
Please don't hate me more…
"Then 15..."
He wrote that down.
"Any family member? Pets, siblings?"
I shook my head. Gave him a blunt answer. "No...all gone… all of them gone…"
Tears once again threatened to escape, my lips quivered.
The doc seeing this, still wrote it down. "Well my condolence, I didn't mean to upset you." With a sigh he continued. "One last question. Were you always born with that eye condition?"
Eye condition? What did he mean? Like pink eyes?
I look at him confused.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"I mean the color of your eyes. You don't know?"
"No."
He hummed and left the room for a moment. Then came back with a Mirror. "Take a look."
I grabbed the mirror and–WHAT THE FUCK?! What happened to my eyes?!
My jaw dropped as I looked at myself.
My eyes weren't...natural. First off my eyes were a natural brown color. Now! This wasn't the case. My left eye was silver, I think? It's a bit whiter, while my right eye was purple. Not lilac like yangs, mine was darker.
My eyes were like Neo's or those anime characters with different colored eyes.
And not just that I was noticing more features. I had horns on my head that were curves back kinda like a ram, only without the round ends, just pointed ones. Even my mouth has changed, more specifically my teeth.
Instead of the normal incisor and molars. My teeth were Shark teeth. I'm not even kidding, they were literally shark teeth, what I mean is, it was the iconic triangle shaped fangs that a great white would have. Only on a much smaller scale.
Yeah, I'm a big nerd when it comes to Sharks, or any other animal.
Though the question is what kind of Faunus am I? Am I a type of dragon or something?
This kinda reminds me of that watt pad story. Yeah I read some watt pad sue me there are some good stories.
...I said some.
"I take it this is your first time seeing yourself?" The doctor asked while taking me out of my stumper.
"Uhhh...yeah, I have to ask doc, what kind of eye condition is this?" I was really curious.
He hummed for a moment then began speaking. "Hmm, I think your eye condition is called. Heterochromia Iridium. It's a rare genetic mutation amongst humans and Faunus. Unfortunately I'm not quite sure due to me not having enough time to study it, though if I am indeed correct. Then that is what you have."
"Does it affect my eyesight?" Hey had to ask, this is my first hearing about.
He hummed for a moment. "Hmmm, no actually if it is Heterochromia Iridium. Then actually you're fine, unless perhaps your color blind?" I shook my head. "Then you're okay."
"Alright that's enough questions." He looked at me and smiled. "You're lucky to be alive, young man, especially to be saved by the chieftains. "He gave me a pat and left.
What a nice doctor honestly.
I let out a sigh and lay back. My thoughts trailing back to my family, fuck dude. I've said many times, but this sucks ass.
Honestly I'm not sure if I can recover from this at all, cause even now guilt is flooding me.
Just...fuck man.
I felt a buzz on my side.
Wait didn't I just drop my phone? Plus I'm not even wearing my sweats.
I reached down and low and behold my phone was here.
Messing from no caller ID.
No caller ID: if you managed to drop your phone, or lose it. Don't worry it will auto teleport to you in case such a thing has happened.
Okay that was cool, but I needed answers.
Angel Lara: Thanks for telling me something cool, it doesn't really help much. Sorry for my language but I'm saying it. Who the fuck are you? And what did you do to me?
I sent that message and waited.
Instantly came.
No caller ID: I understand you are angry. But you must realize I had no choice, your universe was on the verge of collapse for some unknown reason. And it just so happened you are one of the few special people.
No caller ID: Look, I can't explain much unfortunately. A lot of complicated shit has happened. Right now I'm talking to my higher ups at the moment, we are dealing with this problem. However I can explain your change.
No caller ID: Because you are one of the so called special ones, we had no choice. In order for you to be in one of the RWBY universes, we had to change your form into something special. That even including reversing your age, I know it doesn't help you much but, this is kinda our way of apologizing to you. Plus giving you a phone that won't break, can teleport, can watch unlimited shows and videos and reading material.
No caller ID: Look I have to go right now, but I'll give you more later. See ya Angel.
...Welp That's that I guess…
God this is gonna be hard getting used to.
I wipe my eyes a bit.
I'm gonna miss them all. Badly…
I put my phone down and laid back. The ceiling was oddly entertaining to look at now, a lot of dots.
I don't know how long I've been staring at the ceiling for, cause soon I heard footsteps, I blinked then sat up.
And there they were to my surprise. Blake's parents, actually I shouldn't be surprised. I mean they did find a child being chased by a Beowolf. Course they be worried, they have a kid too for fuck sakes.
Kali gave me a warm motherly smile. I know I may not seem like it but my chest just felt empty. And her smile did help me mend the empty hole if for a bit.
Ghira on the other hand may not be smiling. But he had that look any worried father would have.
Oh god this is just gonna get worse...
Kali spoke first. "Hi young one, how are you feeling?"
Ughhh young one. Seems like a cliche thing to say.
I replied, though maybe a bit rudely I don't give a fuck at this point. "My family and relatives are all dead, how do ya think I fucking feel?"
Yeah...wasn't a good thing to say. But can you really blame me? Kali gave me a shocked looked, probably not expecting a 15 year old to know the word fuck. Ghira eyes narrowed. God reminds me of my dad.
I sigh and begin to apologize. "I-I'm sorry. I'm just in a deep place right now… thank you for saving me…" I felt awkward for saying that last part.
She frowned for a moment then lit up in a smile. "It's alright, and you are most certainly welcome!"
"Though next time young one mind your language." Her husband said to me sternly.
I looked down and nodded. "Yes sir…".
"Though we must ask." Kali said. "Why were you in the Kuana forests? And the deep part of it too? You're lucky it was just a young Beowolf that chased you."
Young my ass but whatever. "I was...lost I didn't know where to go after I lost everything…" I was Soulum again.
I know I keep repeating it but I just. I find it so difficult and so unreal that I've lost everything. I end up in a RWBY universe which is unbelievable and would be something from a RWBY fanfic.
Gah man!
While I was brooding, I just barely noticed that Kali pulled me into a hug which made me flinch, honestly this was unexpected. I know she's a kind mother who would tease her daughter, but this was still something I wouldn't expect.
Though it didn't stop me from hugging back. Okay now the tears are back, fuck I'm sensitive as fuck!
"There, there." She patted the back of my head. "It's okay, young one." She comforted me. "it's okay."
"It's just…" I sniffed. "What am I gonna do…?"
"Adopt you." Rather bluntly I might add. And well it shocked me.
I look up at her, with tears still in my eyes. "Wah?"
Ghira quickly responded. "She said we're gonna adopt you."
I was just stunned honestly. They were just gonna adopt me just like that? I don't know why, it's just odd they were going to adopt me just like that. Feel like those bad terrible watt pad Scenarios, sure some of its sounds interesting. But the execution was terrible.
Off track.
"Why?" I mean I had to ask.
Ghira again had to explain. "Well after what the doctor told us and my wife's way of–" he gave her a blank stare, though he had a slight blush on his face. She smirked at him. "– persuasion, we have decided to adopt you, we have already signed the paper works."
Wow. Damn dude this is just really shocking and surprising.
I was stunned, but after a moment I spoke. "I...thank you so much. I-I'm just really surprised honestly. Everything just seems so fast."
Kali patted my head. "We understand fully. However we felt that because you were alone, that at least we should take you in. Are you okay with that?" She tilted her head at me.
God she was cute honestly. Anyways.
I still can comprehend this at all. It's just it doesn't feel real despite it happening in front of my own fucking face, but there wasn't anything I can do at this point. And honestly I don't think I mind, well maybe a little.
"Yeah, I'm okay. Thank you so much."
Got a tight squeeze after that by Kali.
After leaving the hospital with the belladonna's though not without a crutch. Apparently I sprained my ankle so I wouldn't be able to walk properly for a while especially since I didn't have an Aura yet, my phone in my pocket so I can contact that dude, whoever that is.
And well we left. I got a good look of the town, specifically Kuo kuana.
How do I remember? Wiki.
Honestly it was a beautiful place. Palm Trees everywhere, houses and stands next to each other. People walking about.
What made it better was the fact that it was night, many lights and even lanterns were on. This place kinda reminds me of Mexico and Hawaii, because of the lights and because of the sandy shops, honestly it made me feel home.
We've actually gotten stares specifically at me. My hearing might not be as good as a cat faunus, but I can hear at least better than a normal person.
I can hear them saying stuff like, 'Who is that with the Chieftains.' Or 'His eyes, what kind of faunus is he?' Like that. Though I tend not to care.
After the long walk we finally made it the house of the Belladonnas. Or the chieftain house. God damn it was huge.
Kali opened the door and called out. "Blake we're home!"
Wait Blake's still here? Now that I realize, what season or volume am I in? Am I before volume 1? Or after volume 3?
Well I got my answer after I see– holy shit! She's so adorable!
There she is. The future protagonist, Blake belladonna. And wow she's shorter than me.
I wonder how old she is? This is before volume 1 after all.
A female faunus now showed up. I can't tell her species, I think she's a bird because of the yellow feathers.
"Thank you for watching her." Ghira pulled something out of his pocket. Money, though it doesn't look like American currency. I think that that's lin? They are all assorted in colors, like red, blue, yellow.
Kinda reminds me of Monopoly money.
After that the babysitter nodded and thanked him. while being handed change, she walked out not before staring at me for a moment. Then just left without saying anything to me.
Yeah I'm gonna take that as a bad sign. Cause no one just stares at me like that, please I'm smarter than that.
"Mom, Dad! There's a boy behind you!" She shouted loudly. Jeez who knew Blake was loud this loud at a young age. Kinda hard to believe this is the same Blake who is usually the quiet one, and the most pervy.
Cause of the books.
"Blake, this is Angel." Kali said to her. "He's gonna be staying with us now."
She tilted her head at me. Yeah I know that look.
I'm named Angel but I'm anything but an Angel, Metaphorically and now physically.
She stared at me some more. "Your eyes are funny."
Wow. Way to state the obvious Blake, maybe she's not 13, maybe she's 10.
Her parents weren't happy, Ghira frowned, Kali crouched and pinched Blake's cheeks. Which she yelped. Kinda cute.
"Blake, be nice." She said sternly.
"It's okay Miss, I'm used to it." I turned to Blake and put on my Sophisticated tone. "And why thank you, I'll have you know that I happen to be a rather, humorous individual."
I got a giggle from her, huh even her mom. I'm starting out good, got both belladonna to giggle. Huh even Ghira smiled. Interesting.
Kali yawned. "I think it's time for us to sleep actually."
That I can agree honestly.
Ghira stretched. "Yes it is. Come on Blake it's time for bed."
She pouted. "I don't wanna sleep, I'm 13."
"Blake, come on. You know it's late." Kali stated. "And besides, Angel needs his sleep."
Which was true, I really needed sleep.
Blake grumbled. "Fine…" which was kinda cute, since I have a thing for grumpy girls.
"Come on Blake. I'll read you those stories you like." Ghira said, smiling.
"Okay!"
With that they left.
Kali closed the door and locked it, she turned to me. "Follow me, I'll take you to our guest room." She smiled warmly at me.
I nodded and began to follow her. "Umm thank you again miss…?" Yeah I know her name, but she didn't tell me her name yet.
Now she realizes it. "Oh! I'm sorry, my name is Kali Belladonna, my husband who saved you is Ghira, and well you already met Blake."
I know. But I was glad she told me her name.
It took a bit but we made it. She opens the door and I get a good look at the room. Well there wasn't much to it, other then the bed was closer to the ground.
"Here you go, Go ahead and lay down. I'll try and bring you some fresh clothing." I nodded and went inside, while she went to get more cleaner clothes.
I sat down on the bed, then set the crutches to the side. I took off my shoes as soon as I did that. Pressure that I never knew I had was suddenly released and it felt good.
Ohh wow it felt good.
I lay on my back, snuggling a bit.
Oh! I'm gonna pass out. Damn I didn't get to...change…
.
.
.
.
.
..Angel..
What was that?
..Angel..
I hear whispering.
….Dad?
Mom?!
I called out. But all I saw was nothing but black, no not even black but the emptiness of black. Just nothing, yet I can hear voices.
ANEGL!
I sat up so damn fast and clutched my chest again.
It happened again. That dream, their voices. Not just my parents but everyone I knew.
No…
No…
I grasped my head and began to sob, hot tears again streaming down my cheek.
Now I truly realize they are gone...they aren't here. I won't be able to see them again.
Why….
"WHY!" I shouted loudly, my throat starting to hurt a bit.
"Why did this have to happen to me...why were they taken…"
I felt a hand on my shoulder which made me jump. I looked up and it was Kali, though now dawning a black kimono.
Though it was just her, Ghira was at the door entrance, though he was also wearing a kimono. Blake by his side.
They looked tired though there was worry in their eyes. How long have I been crying for?
Well I should break the silence. I grunted a bit. "Oh! Umm g-good morning I didn't mean to wake you guys up." God that's awkward...I even hand a forced awkward smile. It actually hurts my cheeks.
I shifted a bit, I was still in my clothes I had yesterday. I grabbed my crutches to get off the bed till I felt a hand on my shoulder. "Angel?" That stopped me "What's the matter?" She said it in a worried tone
Sigh. Damn she's so kind
I shook my head. "Uhh nothing's wrong." I got off bed and made my way to the door. "Excuseme please." I told Ghira and Blake. Had to be kind right?
I left the room, though I asked where the bathroom was. Ghira pointed it out, and I happily limped over there. When you got to go, you got to go.
I opened the door and- oh sweet it has a shower.
I moved and sat onto the toilet while placing the crutches on the wall, I took off my socks first. Damn my foot was sandy, and it stinks.
Phew!
I began to strip off my clothes, though I had a bit of a difficult time with the pants. Leg was aching.
I started the shower, putting first cold then hot water, I held out my hand. Letting the water rain down on my hand, had to make sure it was getting warm.
Luckily this wasn't my shower and it got warm quickly. After taking off underwear I stepped in and–ohhhhhh…
Ohhh wow...I've taken a warm shower before but this felt nice, so nice that I actually placed my sprained leg down.
Don't even feel the agitation. I just felt so good.
I began to tense the muscles on my back, allowing me to crack my back. My neck came next, Oohhh! That was good. I moved my arms up and behind me, my shoulder joints cracked, and the muscles stretched.
Did I say this felt good? It felt amazing especially with the warm water.
After that, I began to apply shampoo on my hair and my newly grown horns. It's still a weird feeling having these things, it's very hard that's for sure, and it's warm probably due to the water.
As I did this, now using body wash. I've begun to contemplate well… what's happening. The fact that I'm not in a panic attack anymore is a good sign I can at least assess what happened.
It's unbelievable that I'm here in a Rwby universe, that is 4 or how many years before Volume 1. I mean what am I gonna do?
Now that my old universe and my… family are gone… it's just me now.
I released a sigh. This was really gonna be difficult but my dad always said what I was gonna do if he or mom weren't there. And it was just me and my brothers.
I don't know. I wouldn't know what to do.
But I don't have my little brothers with me unfortunately. And even then I still don't know.
Should I become a hunter? It sounds cool but I don't really know after seeing that "young" Beowolf, I might have developed a new phobia.
Maybe when I get older, again. I might change my mind, right now? Yeah no thanks.
And also, should I make some changes to this universe? I mean me being here has kinda changed the course, I've met the Belladonnas for Christ sakes.
Though that means I can't save amber. The poor woman has to suffer that fate.
And it's not that I don't want to, it's just I can't. For god's sakes, I can't just go tell the people who saved me that, A bitch in red –who might as well be a thot– is going to steal power from a girl who conjures fire.
Screw it, I'll see if I can make some changes. Hopefully big ones.
After my shower and my vow to fuck them over. I dried myself with the towel, I felt pain in my leg. Luckily it wasn't too bad.
I decided to take a look at myself in the mirror. Wow, it's interesting to look at myself again. It feels like I'm wearing makeup even though I'm not, huh wait a minute.
I take a close look at myself. I wasn't chubby anymore.
My chest actually looked a bit broader, my arms actually biceps and triceps show if barely. My lats looked tighter. And looking at my belly, I still have the gut though now it's less and is kinda showing signs of abs. Barely.
I actually looked healthier than before.
I take an even closer look at myself, specifically my hair. There were some… silver strands. Not noticeable at first but when I got closer. Yeah there they are.
Sigh more questions.
I opened my mouth to examine my teeth, I was really fascinated. Because they do look like shark teeth, I can even see very, very, tiny ridges on them. They are basically designed to cut flesh with ease, but strangely as I ran my tongue on them, I didn't feel any sort of pain.
It just felt normal. Man this is weird.
I heard knocking on the door.
"Yes?"
"Mom told me to give you these!" It was Blake.
I opened the door a bit, allowing me to see her hand which held new clothes for me.
Black pants, black shirt and white socks. I take them, then closed the door again
As I put them on. Wow! These are really soft, wonder what kind of silk was used.
I'll need to ask, it's very snug on me and warm.
Grabbing my crutches I was about to make my way out the door, before I did that I took a look at myself again.
I released a sigh. Then made my way out.
I guess it's fine to live a new life…
Thank you for reading, there wasn't much here I know. But I want to take things slow first.
I know Kali adopting seems random. But sometimes I gotta make things flow somewhat.
Will there be changes? Of course!
A lot is gonna change because of me.
You'll see, but due expect me to act juvenile as in act like kid and fuck around with stuff.
Alright I'll see ya guys.
