Redemption pt2
now it's time for the story but first (this one won't be as gritty or as dark) oh and Fi I hope you enjoy this chapter.
I do not own or claim to own kenshi by lo-fi games or rwby by rooster teeth, clearly.
After what felt like an hour or so of form filling and bureaucracy. Ozpin finally spoke, a word other than constant signing here," we will now be introducing you to your new team for your stay here."
"one question, are they competent with a blade and second, of all can I have my stuff back," I ask.
"You'll see," Ozpin spoke as he left with Glynda Goodwitch in tow.
After what felt like an hour waiting in same room as before. Until. Ozpin burst through the room, cough and sputtering like an old engine as he hauled my mighty, mercenary plate mail on his back. Glynda however calmly, waltz into the room like she was carrying nothing.
"so, you're enjoying my backpack then" I ask.
"I am, it's streamlined, it's light, it's perfect," she spoke like a giddy child.
"I'm gonna have that back, you know," I spoke.
"Shall I take that armor off your hands, Ozpin," I ask.
"Please," he strains.
In less than a mere second he returns, to usual suave self. The sweat from his skin seemingly disappeared and the disheveled look of his clothes along with it.
"That's better," he spoke.
"Now I have armor and gear, where are my blades," I ask.
"Well, for the protection of all staff and students, they have been stored in the communal Armory until, you have met your team. At least," Glynda spoke.
"So, let's see this team then," I spoke in my usual suave tone.
"but first your putting my armor on," Glynda add.
"Why, what's not to like, I'm ripped, I've got the voice, I've got the looks, don't act like you don't know, Glynda," I yell.
"Crow may, have shown me, it, but that is no excuse to not put your armor on," Glynda answer.
"What's the worst they are gonna do," I spoke.
"to save yourself from having to reassemble yourself, just put your, Oum dam armor on," Glynda yell.
"God, help you, Ozpin, is she normally this commanding in bed," I mock.
"Rust," Glynda yell.
"I'm putting my armor on, Glynda," I spoke as pulled the chain mail shirt over my head. The sound of the links impacting against my head and each other was like water trickling down a pipe. The noise made me remember on how she uses to do it for me, all those years ago.
My mighty plate mail, glisten in the light. Snip. The ancient buckles, split allowing me to equip my armor.
"Glynda I'm sure you've got some experience with straps and buckles, would you mind doing them up for me," I ask.
"Sure, I'll help you out, I guess," she replies.
As I stood in front of Glynda awaiting her help. Suddenly, Ozpin burst like a blister, laughing his head off. Just as suddenly Glynda shot Ozpin a stare that would make the hardiest of inquisitors wish they had been mere farmers, and then the silence returned just as quickly as it went.
"There you are," she spoke as the last buckle
The leather straps and buckles bound me to my armor as would, the tendons bind flesh to a skeleton. Just after the final piece of my armor fell into place, I began my bench marking process.
"What are you doing," the pair spoke in unison.
"A benchmark, to see if my body is at peak shape and nothing needs replacing or maintenance," I reply as.
"Let's have a look at these results, then," I spoke.

"My god, I've let myself go," I sigh. At the sight of the list
"What needs to be replaced," Ozpin deadpan.
"nothing important, just some consumables that haven't be manufactured the past few millennia so, like I said nothing", reply.
"Then shall we meet your new team," Glynda interrupt.
"Sure," I spoke.
"I'll deliver him to team Juniper," Glynda spoke
"Then lead the way," I spoke.
Through the cavernous halls and bustling passages, the pair of us eventually arrive, after a few strange stares from onlookers (like they never seen a skeleton before).
The light from the windows shone against the smooth surface of the door, that was until I came. The smooth painted walls are another refreshing site instead of the brown and grey tones that fill most of the civilizations I've see.
"Just enter, you'll find you'll know your team when you see them," she spoke as she left.
"What do I have to lose," I thought as the door open.
Silently the door slides open revealing a clean, dazzling white room. It was in stark contrast to disease blighted hell holes that passed as hospitals back home. No stench of decay, no moans of the dying, no floors covered in some layers of viscera, just a white abyss lined with beds.
"Let's see team juniper," I spoke.
"You're looking for team juniper too," a small girl spoke from behind.
"You can follow me," she spoke as sprint away leaving a trail of petals (I think).
"This world is getting stranger by the second," I though as I began to follow the trail of petals to team juniper.
"We go out into Vale for a day while you do some light training in the emerald forest, and you almost die, can't we leave you alone anywhere," a female meat bag in white spoke.
"So, you're here to finish what you started," the blond meat bag spoke.
"Who are you talking to," the meat bag in white mutter.
"Ha-ha, don't flatter your selves, if I wanted to kill you, I would have done it when I had my chance," I spoke.
"Then why are you here", the red head beside him spoke.
"Excellent question, Ozpin thought it would a great idea to append me to this team, but given the current situation, he must be either senile or completely insane, to think this could work," I spoke.
"Hiya mister robot man, welcome to team juniper" the other red head shout enthusiastically.
"Meat bag if you call me a robot, again I will eviscerate you where you stand," I shout.
"Wow what did I miss," another blond meat bag spoke as she arrives
"Well, we found what defeated team juniper as well as the latest addition to their team," the meat bag in white spoke with an air of superiority.
"Well at least you got Weiss to play nurse with you Jaune," the new comer mock.
"Ha-ha yang, do you think I would have fucked up my shoulder this badly just for Weiss to pay attention to me," Jaune yell.
"Yes," she yells.
"I'm gonna get going now since this clearly doesn't involve me, and may become violent," I spoke as I began to leave the building.
"Where do you think, you're going," Glynda yell as I began to leave the building.
"What now," I sigh.
"Team ruby would you kindly leave us," she spoke.
Within mere seconds' yang, Weiss and the other girl left in flash.
"Now rust, here is your new team, first is Jaune arc, team leader of juniper and his partner Pyrrha Nikos then we have Nora Valkyrie and her partner lie Ren," Glynda instruct.
"We'll team I have two rules for being in the same team as you, first all of my previous transgressions towards you mean nothing, the same goes for me too, you were only acting upon your orders and I cannot hold that against you,"
"You forgot one rule," Jaune spoke.
"I already said that rule," I spoke.
"Since you are now a proper member of team juniper, here is your scroll, it contains all the information about you and your team as well as storing your account information," Glynda spoke as she drawn the device from her pockets and gave it to me.
"Oooh technology," I spoke in childish glee.
My excitement was met by a multitude of strange looks from my new team and Glynda. Returning to my usual suave demeanor I spoke," but may I have blades now, I know you have them you (you expect me to not notice a 1.1-meter-tall blade and a fragment axe)."
"Here," Glynda spoke as she passes me my blades.
"I've got my gear, my blades and my team, what do I need to do now," I spoke.
"That reminds me, team juniper, you have officially been discharged please return to your dorm," Glynda command.
"So, shall we go to yours's," I spoke to my team as they began to leave for our dorm room.
Once again today I'm surprised, I'm surprised at the condition of my team's room since most of the times I've had to live with meat bags. I use to get confused was I living with bull's they ate or them.
"I'm sorry, we weren't expecting guests," Pyrrha softly spoke.
"It's okay, I'm fine with the floor," I spoke reassuring her.
"Night team," I spoke as everybody got ready for bed.
"I hope this night will be easy," I mutter, under my breath.
"I knew I packed these for a reason," I shout my team as I drew a set of sturdy cotton robes from my backpack.
"Hey anyone, know where I can get changed," I ask.
"You can use the bathroom after Nora," Ren spoke with a tone of ice.
"Thanks," I spoke trying to sound sincere.
I thought," well at least their toilet trained," at the sight of the clean bathroom, almost pristine bathroom.
After unbuckling my plate mail from my chassis and equipping the sturdy cotton robes that I (somehow), had the foresight bring along.
"Hey everyone, I've got announcement to make," I yell.
"Can it wait until morning," Jaune moan.
"No, it can't," I spoke
" I'm sorry for what I did and I know that whatever words I say won't mean anything to you, so I offer to you my blade , I will be your sword and your shield if I have to, I will follow you into the depths of hell, I will ride with you against insurmountable odds, I will stand by you if it's last thing I do on this rock," I spoke as knelt in front of Jaune holding my blade above my head. waiting.
