Chapter 6: Battle the Dark Summoner Pt.1
It's been two days since the encounter with Rosa and the Heartless happened in the park and Glossaryck's sudden leaving for Mewni. Since then, Star has been very anxious about seeing her again so she could ask her more about the Keyblade. While Marco also wanted to see the red-head as well, it was for a different reason. Before he left to go see Star's mom, Glossaryck said that if he and Star do run into Rosa again, they were supposed to give her a very vague message in his opinion.
Right now, he and Star were outside walking the streets looking for something to do while also keeping an eye out for their new friend. On their way into town, they passed the park and saw some construction workers still busy repairing the damage done from Rosa's fight with those heartless prior to two days ago.
"Can you believe those guys are fixing the park Marco?" Star asked as they passed by. "Well that attack Rosa used did cause a lot of damage Star, I'm just surprised she managed to contain it to just a small amount." Marco said, amazed with Rosa's control of her magic.
"Yeah that's true, hey maybe if we do find her again, she could tell me how she controls her power so well." "Maybe Star, but first we need to find her." Marco said as he and Star walked pass a couple stores.
"Right, let's start looking then Marco!" Star yells, then dashes down the sidewalk towards the corner. "Star wait a sec-"Marco stops what he was going to say when he sees that Star was about to crash into what looks to be a red blur.
"STAR! LOOKOUT! IN FRONT OF YOU!" Marco yells at the top of his lungs hoping his friend heard him in time.
"Huh? What was that you said Marco?" Star says turning to her friend who she ran ahead of.
However, as soon as she did, she crashed right into someone who was coming from the other side of the corner she was running too. The force of the impact knocked both Star and the person she crashed into to the ground. "Ugh ow, sorry about that you okay over there?" Star says with her eyes closed, massaging the back of her head that was now throbbing.
"Ow, ow, ow…yeah I'm fine. Also I'm sorry too, guess I was so excited about being somewhere new I kind of sped off in this direction ha ha." The person said with a nervous laugh, who Star notice sounded very young.
Star opens her eyes to see who she actually ran into. It was a young girl who looked to be about the same age as her and Marco.
She was a fair skinned young girl with silver eyes and black, neck-length hair that gradates to dark red at the tips cut in an asymmetrical style. She was wearing a long sleeved thick black blouse with a high collar and red trim on the sleeves, a black waist cincher with red lacing up the front, and a black skirt with red trim. She also wears a pair of thick black stockings and black combat boots with red laces, red trim around the top and red soles. She was also wearing a red hooded cloak fastened to her shoulder by cross-shaped pins. She wore a wide black belt around her hips on an angle, a silver rose brooch was pinned to it, along with a pouch and what looked like bullets?
Star was so mesmerized by the girl's outfit, that she almost didn't hear her when she was calling out to her.
"Umm...hello? Can you hear me?" the girl said waving her hand in front of Star. "Huh? Oh yeah, I'm fine I'm fine." Star said embarrassed that she just spaced out. "It's just that your outfit is so cool looking!" "Oh well thank you very much." The girl said extending her hand out. Star smiles while grabbing her hand and pulling herself up.
"Star?! Are you okay?" Marco asks coming up from behind clearly out of breath from trying to catch up.
"Yeah we're all good here Marco." "You sure?" "Of course, you know I've had way worse falls than this." "Huh, guess you're right. So is the person you ran into alright then?" he asked.
"Oh yeah I'm fine, thank you for asking." "No problem, so is there like a convention or something going on?" "Umm…why would you ask that?" the asked confused. "Well it's just, that your outfit…" Marco trails off pointing at her appearance. "Oh this? These are just my regular clothes." "Oh sorry if I offended you um…again sorry but could you tell us your name please?" Oh that's right I completely forgot to ask for your name." Star said sheepishly scratching the back of head, while Marco smirks at his friend's forgetfulness.
"Oh your right, my bad. Well my name is Ruby Rose and it's nice to meet you both. Oh, but you can just call me Ruby." The now named Ruby Rose says with a smile.
"It's nice to meet you Ruby, my names Marco and my friend who you literally bumped into is Star." "Hey there, so why were you in such a hurry anyway Ruby?" Star asks her. That's when she remembered why she was in such a rush in the first place.
"OH MY GOSH THAT'S RIGHT! I NEED TO HURRY!" "Wait hurry to where? Ruby what's the problem, maybe me and Marco can help right?" Star says looking to her friend for confirmation. "Yeah sure, just tell us what it is first and well see what we can do to help you out." He says walking up to Ruby and placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder. She smiles at the two's willingness to help.
"Sigh, thanks you guys. Actually, there are two things I kind of may need your help with." "Be it two or two-thousand, ask away and we'll do our best to help." Star said confidently.
"Let's not go over-board Star," Marco said. "So Ruby, what's the first thing you need help?" "Okay well first, I kind of have to find four other people, one of them is already here in this town. The other three are…well, it's kind of my fault I got separated from them in the first place because…you know, new place, new people," Ruby said timidly while looking down at her feet.
"Let me guess, you ran off and got yourself lost right?" "Ha, what gave it away?" Marco looks to Star briefly before looking back at Ruby. "Let's just say I know someone else who really "Stars" things up too." "Huh? Stars things up? I don't get it." Ruby said confused by the meaning.
"Oh don't worry about it, it's just something Marco here likes to use when someone makes a little mistake." Star said before looking over at her friend. "Like when he and a couple of our other friends used my magic mirror to prank call people and ended up running up the bill. Let's say that was Marco's "Star up" moment." Star said with a grin while watching Marco try to explain himself.
"I said I was sorry about that geez, so anyway Ruby-"Before Marco could begin to say what he wanted to, he Star and Ruby heard what sounded like someone yelling.
"SO THIS IS WHERE YOU RAN OFF TOO!" The three turn around and to see a person walking/stomping their way towards them, practically towards Ruby.
"Oh geez, I'm really in for it now."
Um Ruby? Is that by any chance, one of the people you were looking for?" Star asks, seeing how the red/black haired girl was acting. "Yeah she is, she also tends to get really, really mad with me sometimes. Especially when it comes to me being "childish" as she puts it." Ruby says while the person in question walked up to the three.
She was a pale skinned young girl with pale blue eyes and long white hair pulled back into an off-center bun tail and pinned with an icicle shaped tiara. She was wearing a thigh-length strapless dress with a faint color gradation from white to pale blue at the hem. A small piece of black lace sits in the front of her neckline and the hem of the dress is scalloped and stitched to resemble snowflakes, with layers of white tulle under the skirt. Over this she wears a bell sleeved bolero with the same color gradation as her dress from shoulder to wrist, lined in red and with a ruffled collar. She was also wearing a small apple pendant on a silver chain and thin, rectangular silver earrings. Her boots are white, wedged heeled and higher at the back than the front. They have a small silver decoration across the top of the foot and are lined in red. A thin white sash is tied around her waist with a pouch attached to the back.
Star and Marco could also see she had a crooked scar that ran vertically down her left eye of her face, which right now had a scowl and narrowed eyes looking at Ruby.
"Hey Weiss, looks like you found me." Ruby said timidly under the scary look she was receiving from her white haired friend. "I wouldn't have had too, if you didn't go running off like you did. I mean what were you thinking? What if you had gotten lost or something?" "Well I... kind of did get lost for a couple minutes, then I ran into Star and Marco here who said they we're going to help me find you guys." Ruby explained to Weiss.
"Hm?" Weiss looks behind Ruby to see the two people she was talking about looking back at her waving. "Oh um... right, it's nice to meet you both, my name is Weiss Schnee and I apologies for any trouble my leader here may have caused you." She says bowing her head slightly while also grabbing Ruby and forcing her to bow as well. "Why exactly do I have to bow too? I didn't cause any trouble. I mean... except for maybe... crashing into Star by accident." "YOU WHAT?! This exactly what I'm talking about."
While the two girls were still debating/arguing, Star and Marco were trying not to laugh out loud at the two girls.
"Hey Marco, is it me or do those two kind of act like us sometimes?" Star asks trying and failing not to laugh. "No Star I definitely see it too, but I'm wondering what did Ruby's friend mean when she called her leader?" "Oh yeah now that you mentioned it...hey why don't we just ask them? Hey you guys!" Star calls out getting the two's attention.
"Me and Marco were wondering, ah Weiss right? Why'd you called Ruby your leader?" Star asked. "Oh that? Well you see-"
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"What the heck was that scream?" Marco asked with the other three having the same question.
"It sounded like it came from a few buildings down from where I was earlier," Weiss said. "Then let's hurry and make our way there!" Ruby said. "You don't have to tell me twice. Follow me Ruby, I know some of these streets like the back of my wand." "Alright let's go then!" and with that, Star and Ruby sped off down the sidewalk.
"Star hold on second!" "Why is it right when I find you, your already speeding off again!?" Both Marco and Weiss shouted as they let out exasperated sighs. "Well, let's hurry after them before they both get in over their heads." "Sigh, agreed." Weiss said as she and Marco ran after Star and Ruby.
On a building top unbeknownst by the two of them, two black hooded figures were watching them.
"Huh, didn't think we'd run into those guys here." The hooded person on the right said. "Well if you were listening at all, you would have heard that we may run into people from our world." The other figure said in an annoyed tone, also indicating that their female.
"Whatever, so we're supposed to follow after them right?" "Yeah, and also report back if we hear anything on what their doing." "Okay I got it, let's just go already." He said jumping to the neighboring building. "Sigh, why do I always get stuck with you Mercury." She said following after him.
(Britta's Tacos)
The screams of people could be heard, as they ran for their lives from the Heartless that suddenly appeared at Britta's Tacos. They were either tearing apart the tables or chasing after the patrons that were fleeing.
A mother and her daughter were running from a group of six shadows when the daughter tripped and fell, losing the grip of her mother's hand.
"Jenny! Hurry you have to get up quick!" the girl whose name is Jenny mother frantically said. Jenny tried to hurry and stand up to run, but the fall sprained her ankle. While Jenny tries to stand up again, she looks behind herself and sees the six Heartless jump at her, bearing their clawed hand.
"SOMEONE, ANYONE HELP! JENNY! NO! SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE MY DAUGHTER!"
As if answering their call for help, they heard someone shout out something from behind them.
"Shooting Star Explosion!" A storm of stars flew towards the Heartless, then explode sending them flying backward. "Hey are you okay?" Jenny looks up to see a blonde haired girl with blue eyes and another girl with red/black hair and silvers. "Y-Yes, thank you." She says with tears in her eyes.
Star then picks up Jenny and carries her to her mother with Ruby right behind her.
"JENNY THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE OKAY! MOMMY!" Jenny cries out as Star hands her to her waiting mother, who is overjoyed that her daughter is unharmed. "Thank you both so much for saving my little Jenny."
" It was nothing mam." Star said. "Yeah what she said, now you two should get to safety." Ruby said, as she and Star turned to face the rest of the Heartless that appeared. "Are you sure you two can handle those things?"
"Most definitely, right Star?" "Yeah no need to worry about us, now hurry and get yourself and your daughter outta here." "Alright then, come on Jenny let's go." The mother said as fled with her daughter.
After making sure they were safely away, Star and Ruby looked to the six Heartless getting up from Star's spell.
"It doesn't look like my spell did that much damage to these Heartless." Star said seeing that they hardly had any scratches. "Wait, how do you know their called Heartless Star?" "Oh, Marco and I ran into these things a few days ago and we saw someone fight them off." Star said, then realized something. "Hey hold on, how do you know about the Heartless Ruby?" "Umm, well you see-AH LOOK OUT!" Ruby yelled as she saw that the Shadows were charging at her and Star.
"Crap!" Star raises her wand, but before she could begin to cast a spell, Ruby puts her hand in front of her. "Let me handle them." She said stretching her hand out.
Light began to gather in Ruby's hand as she focused more until it created a sudden flash, forcing Star to cover her eyes and the Shadows to stop in their tracks. When she felt the light from the flash fade, she opened her eyes and was speechless at what she saw Ruby holding.
Ruby was holding an odd looking sword that had the same colors as her outfit. It had a red handle and black guard with two rods jutting out from the guard. The blade itself looked like the shaft of a pin tumbler lock key which had two red lines in the center of it. The base was covered with bandages and a red and black keychain with a rose token similar to the one on her belt was extended from the hilt.
"R-Ruby? Your, you're a..." "Oh right, you said that you saw someone fighting Heartless a few days ago right?" Star only nodded her, still entranced. "Well she's actually who Weiss, my other two friends and I were looking for." She said scratching her cheek timidly. "Oh and this little puppy here is my Keyblade, it's called "Crescent Rose Fenrir" and wait till you see what it can do!" Ruby then sped towards the Heartless. Before they could even react, she was already in front of them and with one quick swing, took out all six in an instant.
"I always forget that these guys go down pretty quickly compared to Grimm. Oh well, hey Star what did you think of my-huh?" Ruby looks back to see Star wide eyed, mouth hanging open in completely shock. "Umm Star? Helloo? Are you okay? Star please say something?" Ruby said waving her hand in front of Star to try and snap her out of her trance.
When she finally came to, the first thing she did was grab Ruby by the shoulders and start shaking her.
"WHEN WERE YOU GOING TO TELL ME YOU COULD USE A KEYBLADE LIKE ROSA? IS SHE THE ONE YOU'RE LOOKING FOR? CAN YOUR OTHER FRIENDS USE KEYBLADES TOO? TELL, TELL PLEASSSSSEEE?" Star plead/yells while still holding onto the silver eyed girl.
"Cough, we hate to interrupt this conversation between you both but, did you forget you have a situation in front of you!?" Star lets go of Ruby and the two turn to see Weiss and an out of breath Marco behind them.
"Oh hey guys, where were you?" Star asked letting go of Ruby. "Yeah, we thought you were right behind us."
" You both... darted off before... we could even blink." Marco said while catching his breath. "Exactly! Also, your questions are going to have to wait until the problem over there is taken care of first." Weiss said pointing to the remaining Heartless in front of them.
"Oh right, I was just going to do that now." "Then come on, this end more quickly with the two of us. Marco? You and the princess stay here, while me and Ruby take care of this." "Wait, what do you mean-" His question was cut short when he saw light begin to gather in Weiss's hand, then explode in a sudden flash, causing me and Star to cover our eyes.
When the light faded and he un-covered his eyes, Marco's jaw hung open at what he was looking at.
Weiss was now holding something with a silver handle and greyish guard. In the center attached to both, was a clear white gem. The blade was a silver-grey which was straight, then spikes and curves at the top ending with a pointed tip. On one side of the blade were three teeth forming the outline of two thermometers. A white outline was present on the front and a silver keychain with a white snowflake token, similar to the one on the back of her jacket was attached to the hilt.
"Wait isn't that a... but that means... that you two are-"
"Like I told you're friend, please hold onto your questions." She said, swiping her hand over the gem causing it to turn blue.
"Alright Weiss, you freeze'em and I'll handle the rest." Ruby said preparing herself. "Hmph, nice to know you can get serious when needed, alright then,"
Weiss then twirls once and drives the blade of her weapon into the ground, causing a blue surge of energy to burst towards the Heartless. Once the blast reach the first Shadow, it released a massive wave that froze them all at once, giving them no warning or time to react.
"Now Ruby!" she calls to her teammate. "Got it!" Ruby then charges at full speed towards the trapped Heartless and in a spilt second, disappears and then reappears on the other side of the ice block. And as soon as she did, the giant glacier shattered into pieces along with the trapped Shadows.
"YES! We DID IT! Wow Weiss, you're really getting the hang of using Myrtena Splitter." Ruby complimented. "Of course, it's just a different version of my regular weapon. Speaking of getting used to things, it looks like your already getting use to your keyblade." "Yeah, now that I think about it, it's kind of what you said about yours, I just had to adjust my fighting style to compensate for the difference." Ruby said Looking over her Keyblade.
"Well now that that's done with," Weiss says looking to where Marco and Star are standing. "We should probably explain to those two why we're here, while also finding out what's going on." "Yeah, good point, although we might not have to explain that much, seeing as they already met Rosa and most likely have a good grasp on somethings." Ruby said. "Well that at least saves us some trouble of having to hear you give misleading details." "HEY!" "Ha, I'm joking, now come on," Weiss said walking over with a Pouting Ruby Rose to the two teens.
"Oh and just to give you a heads up Ruby, Your new friend Star is a royal princess." "Oh I see... WAIT SHE'S WHAT!?"
