Meet The Team.
Legends. Storiesscattered through time. Mankindhas grown quite fond of recounting the exploits of heroes and villains, forgetting so easily that we are remnants, byproducts, of a forgotten past. Man, born from dust, was strong, wise, and resourceful, but he was born into an unforgiving world. An inevitable darkness — creatures of destruction — the creatures of Grimm- set their sights on man and all of his creations. These forces clashed, and it seemed the darkness was intent on returning man's brief existence to the void. However, even the smallest spark of hope is enough to ignite change, and in time, man's passion, resourcefulness, and ingenuity led them to the tools that would help even the odds. This power was appropriately named "Dust". Nature's wrath in hand, man lit their way through the darkness, and in the shadow's absence came strength, civilization, and most importantly, life. But even the most brilliant lights eventually flicker and die. And when they are gone... darkness will return.
So the question is... how long, will that light last?
Trailer 1: Challenger of Fate.
In a large room, a young girl with long blue hair was standing in the middle with her eyes closed. Soon she was surrounded by robots, all of them armed with different weapons. The girl didn't even move as the robots closed in on her. Soon one of them attacked, going in for a stab. But the girl leans back, allowing the sword to harmlessly pass in front of her, before she grabbed the robot's arm and threw it away. The rest of the robots charged in, but the girl avoided all their attacks before jumping away. She finally opened her eyes before holding up a sheath. She then slowly pulled a beautiful looking sword out of it before getting in to a stance.
One Robot charged at her and tried to attack her with it's sword. But She blocked the strike before forcing the blade to the side and cut the robot's head of. Two more robots attack, and She had to block several strikes from both of them, before she kicked one in the chest, making it stumble back, and allowing her to stab the other one in the chest. The other robot came back, but the girl deflected it's blow before delivering a couple of swift strikes, which cut it in to two pieces. She then glanced to the side and saw two more robots armed with rifles aiming at her.
They opened fire, and the Girl used her sword to deflected several bullets before she rushed forward, quickly closing the distance. She slid on her knees before spinning around, slicing both robots in half. But they still functioned, so they tried to aim at her again, but the Girl stepped on one's head, hard enough to damage it to the point it couldn't function anymore. She then quickly cut the gun of the other robot in half, before she quickly stabbed it in the head.
She then heard heavy footsteps. She looked and saw another robot, only this one was heavier built, and was clearly more powerful than the rest. She eyed it for a moment before she got ready to fight. The robot charged in with it's large sword and brought it down for a heavy cleave. The Girl dodged to the side, making the robot's sword slam in to the floor. She then used the opening to strike it, but her sword bounced of it's heavily armored body. It swings again, forcing the Girl to block, but the force of the blow staggers her, allowing the robot to kick her square in the chest, sending her flying back. And impact that hard could've shattered the rib cage of an untrained human.
But this girl was not untrained, her body glowed for a moment before she stood up, showing no serious damage. But she realized she wasn't going to win this way, so she would need to use her special ability, her Semblance.
She held up her sword as she closed her eyes. Soon her sword began to glow, and when she opened her eyes, her left eye was glowing. The large robot charged at her, but she leaps in to the air. The robot lifted it's large blade to block the in-comming attack. The Girl let out a battle cry as she came down with a powerful strike. She soon landed on the floor, he knees bent and her sword almost touching the floor. Moments later, the robot's blade split in half... and soon after, the robot itself also split in half.
The girl stood up and sighed, before sheathing her sword "Well done, Lucina. You should have no trouble applying for Beacon now".
The girl named Lucina smiled as she turned to face the owner of the voice "Thank you father".
Her father was man named Chrom, the CEO of a company that worked closely with the council of Vale "Frederick has already prepared everything you will need. You ready?".
"Only one way to find out" Lucina said as she followed her father out of the room.
Her name is Lucina Lowell, and her goal was to become a strong huntress and protect her people.
Trailer 2: Shadow Of Greatness.
It was currently night time, and a girl with red hair was on her way home. She had decided to take a short cut through an area that wasn't that good to be at during the night. It didn't take long before she had to stop as a gang surrounded her. The gang was made up of 5 men and 5 women, all of them looking at her with sinister smirks. Their intentions were clear.
"Can I help you?" The Red head asked, showing no fear despite knowing the dangerous situation she was in.
"Maybe you can. We've been bored out of our minds. Maybe you could play with us" One of the men said with a smirk.
"Sorry, not interested. Losers like yourselves wouldn't be able to handle me anyway" The girl said bluntly.
"Oh, she is feisty. I always love them when they have some spine. Those type of girls are always the most fun" One of the women said as she was kneeling behind the Girl, shamelessly admiring her butt.
She was even about to grabb the Girl's butt before she suddenly got a boot to the face, sending her back. The man from before didn't even have time to react before a fist smashed in to his chest, sending him flying as well. The rest backed up a step as the girl was now glaring at them.
"You had your chance, but you had to get nasty. Man or woman, no one touches me!" The Girl said in anger.
"You are going to regret that!" One of the other men said as he and the rest of the gangs took out weapons.
The smirked and took out a sword from her back. It was a little thicker than most swords, and had no sheath. One man lunged at her with a knife but a single strike from her sword sent him flying back, and even knocked him out. He sword wasn't that sharp, but it was hard, and a direct hit by it would hurt a lot. One of them women swings at the girl with a machete but the Girl blocked two to of the strikes before kicking the woman in the gut, knocking the air out of her, before delivering another kick to her head, knocking her out. The rest of the gang attacked, but the girl dodged each strike and struck with with her sword or kicked them hard whenever an opening was presented to her.
Soon enough all of them were knocked out of the ground and the girl sighed "Wow, not even a decent warm up. You guys are a joke".
"Hey! What do you think you're doing with my people!" The Girl looked and saw a towering man carrying a massive sledgehammer on his shoulder.
"I take it you are the boss?" The Girl asked.
"Damn right I am. And if you mess with my boys and girls, you are dead meat" The Man said in anger.
"Come and get me then" The Girl said in confidence.
The man glares as rushes at her like an angry bull. He swings his large hammer, forcing the girl to jump back as he shatters the ground. She quickly lands several strikes, but his large bulk allows him to withstand most of the hits before he swings his large arm at her. The Girl ducked under it and struck him in the back, but it had the same result as before. The man swings his hammer again, making the girl back away, knowing she couldn't dodge his next attack, the man was about to punch her. But the girl quickly put her sword on her arm... and it suddenly turned in to a shield, allowing her to block the punch. She forced his hand away, before punching him in the face and then struck him with her shield. She repeated this a few times before she kicked him in the chest.
The man stumbled back and growled. He began glowing for a moment before he charged in at great speed than before. The Girl once again had to block his strike, only this time the impact sent her flying and she smashed in to a wall. She groans a little before the man grabs her by the neck and slams her in to the ground with enough force to crack it, he smirks down at her as she struggled against his grip "Useful semblance huh? It allows me to enhance my already amazing strength. Now I am going to break your bones and then let my friends have their way with you".
"That... does... sound like a useful semblance... please, allow me to borrow it for a moment" The Girl said as she grabbed his arm, and he felt a sting his arm making him let go of her.
"What?" He said in shock.
The girl glares before she dashes forward with the same speed he had shown before. She delivered a mighty kick to the side of his head which sent him across the ground before he smashed in to a wall, making it collapse on him. The girl sighed as she turned her shield back in to it's sword form and put it on her back before she walked up to the downed gang leader.
"That was indeed a useful semblance. To bad I could only use it once. Well I hope you will learn your lesson in prison" She said.
"I... recognize you now... aren't you the kid of that Cordelia chick?" One of the Women said after having recovered from The Girl's earlier kick.
The girl glared at her "Of course, it's always about my mother. Listen closely, my name is Severa, and one day, I will surpass my mother. Do not forget this!".
The woman gulps as Severa walks away. So the legendary hunteress really did have a daughter.
Her name is Severa Tiamo, and she will break out of her mother's shadow.
Trailer 3: Spirit of the Animal.
In the dense forest of Vale, a gir wearing a cloak with a hood was walking by herself. She was on her way to Vale, where her new life waited for her. Red eyes were watching her from the darkness. She knew they were there, but she kept walking until she heard growling in front of her. She stopped and looked up to see several Grimm walk out of the trees. These were Beowolves, wolf looking black and white monsters that prays on the defenseless. But this girl was anything but defenseless.
"Out of all the grimm that could attack me... it had to be the ones that look like dogs" She says with a sigh.
One Beowolf growls as it jumps at her, but only managed to ram it's sharp claws through her cloak, as the girl herself had vanished out of it. The grimm looked and saw the girl a few feat away from them. The girl had cat ears and a tail, showing she was a faunus, a race that looked like humans but had some animal parts. She smiled at them before holding up her hands which har armored gloves on them... and sharp claws came out of the finger tips.
Not caring one bit, the Beowolves roars as they charged at the faunus girl. She leaps over the first grimm that was trying to attack her, slashing it's back with her claws as she did and the Beowolf fell down, dead. Another Beowolf swings it's claws at her, but she easily avoids it as she dashes around, clawing at the beowolf until it died. Two more of them attacked her at the same time, but stood on her hands as she kicked them both in the face, staggering them. She then stood up and began spinning with her claws out, slashing them wide open, killing them quickly. She smiled in satisfaction before an even more deadly growl was heard.
She looked and saw an Alpha Beowolf, bigger and more dangerous than any other member of it's pack "So the big one has arrived".
The Alpha howls before running at the girl. She used the same tactic as before, however and Alpha wasn't as easy to bring down as the rest of the pack. So it was able to brush of most of her strikes before managing to bite her in the leg and threw her in to a tree. She got up just in time to avoid a strike which sliced clean through the tree. The Faunus glares, she didn't have time for this, so it was time to end it. She got down on all 4, like a cat ready to pounce. Glowing aura began to form around her, before taking the shape of a large cat. The Alpha Beowolf growls and charges again. The Faunus girl hissed like and angry cat before dashing forward, still inside her cat shaped aura, meeting the Grimm's charge head on... and she tore it clean in half.
With the last grimm finally dead, she took a moment to catch her breath before she continued her trip. A short way left, and she will prove to her sister that there is another path than anger and hate.
This Fanus, was Lyre Laguz. And she seeks a new better life.
Trailer 4: Caged And Scared.
In the Kingdom of Atlas, a small girl with purple hair was wandering the halls of her rather large house. She was a little shaky and felt like something really bad was going to happen. She was part of a rather high standing family, but she was far from happy there... given her family was anything but a pleasant bunch. But she had a good reason for being worried, as from the shadows, an assassin was waiting for his time to strike.
He carefully moved out from his hiding spot, his knife ready as he moved behind the girl without a single sound. But the Girl felt a tingle and quickly turned around, which surprised the assassin as he was sure he didn't make any sound, so there was no way she could've known he was there. The Girl looked at him for a moment before she noticed his knife, which made her scream in terror. The Assassin cursed under his breath and quickly moved in to kill her. But the girl acted quickly and somehow managed to knock his knife out of his hand, which surprised him even more. He was told this would be an easy kill.
"STAY AWAY!" She screamed as she kicked him in the face, making him stagger back.
How was she so strong? And how could she fight while in full panic mode? Never mind that, he pulled out two more knives and was ready to kill her. Only for someone to kick him in the side. A young man put himself between the girl and the assassin, glaring at him.
"Yuri?" The Girl said shakily.
"Stay back!" The man known as Yuri said before blocking a strike from the assassin.
Yuri grabbed the assassin's arm and twisted it to the point he dropped the knife. Yuri then swiftly knees the assassin in the chest, knocking the air out of him before slamming him down in to the floor, hard enough to leave a crack which knocked the assassin out. The little girl was scared and confused before she felt someone grab her. She almost screamed until she noticed who it was.
"Mom?" She asked in confusion.
"Damn, I knew this would happen. We can't wait anymore. Yuri take care of this, the time has come" The Mother said.
"Understood, my lady" Yuri said.
"Mom, what are-" The girl said but the mom quickly pulled her away.
Everything was a blur. One moment they were in their house, the next moment, the girl's mother was holding a traveling bag while pulling her daughter along. They arrived at an ship where a man was waiting for them.
"Alois! Is everything ready?" The Mother asked.
"Yes my lady, no one else suspects anything" The man named Alois said.
"Good, get Bernadetta to Vale and do everything you can to make sure she makes it in to Beacon. She is not safe here" The Mother said.
The girl named Bernadetta looked at her mother in worry "Mom, what is happening?".
Her mother put her hands on her shoulders "Bernie... I am so sorry... for everything... you have been through so much, and I did nothing to stop it... I failed you... But I refuse to do it again. Alois will take you to Vale and you will join Beacon Academy. There you can become strong... and you can finally forge your own path, free from us".
"Mom, I don't understand" Bernadetta said with tears in her eyes.
Her mother kissed her head "One day, you will. I love you sweetie. Hurry Alois".
"Mom!" Bernadetta screams as Alois pulls in to the ship.
"Don't worry, Bernadetta. Your mother will be alright, it is time for you to finally break free from your cage, and become free" Alois said as they lifted of and began to leave Atlas.
Bernadetta only looked outside with tears in her eyes... her Silver Eyes.

After a lot of debating with myself, I just decided to do it. Here it is, a brand new story. Yes, another RWBY story, but I really wanted to go back to the innocent days of RWBY and I've been in a really Fire Emblem mode, so this story just clicked for me. I will do my best to stay as true to the Fire Emblem characters as I can. But keep in mind they will be born and raised in the RWBY world, so some changes are unavoidable. And No time travel, RWBY is crazy enough without it.
And I will answer some questions you might have right now.
1: As you can tell, the team I made is formed by characters from several different Fire Emblem games, meaning every Fire Emblem game is fair game for this story, so expect to see a lot of characters that would never meet in canon.
2: Since Bernadetta is the only character on the team that has a canon last name, I had to make up some for the rest. Lucina's last name, Lowell, is taken from Marth's last name from a Fire Emblem OVA, where he is called Mars Lowell. Since Lucina is his descendant, it made sense. Severa's last name, Tiamo, is based on Cordelia's Japanese name. And Lyre's last name is just the name of her race from her canon game, since she will be a Faunus in this story.
3: Their semblances will be explained in time, but I doubt they require much explination.
4: Yes there will be romance in this and yes there might be some Yuri relationships (Not the character Yuri). Don't like it? Sorry, but this is my story.
.
Tell me what you think of this first chapter. It was only meant to introduce the main characters. In the next chapter, we get in to the real story.
